she was shot in the chest in her own house in the dovecot area last night — and died in hospital. police say it happened after a man being chased by a gunman forced his way into the house. two other people were injured — including olivia's mum who was shot in the hand. police have called the gunman �*cowardly�*, and they've described the incident as "truly shocking" and urged people to come forward to tell them who is responsible. our north of england correspondent danny savage is in dovecot. it was shocking enough to wake up this morning to the news that a nine—year old girl had been shot dead in the street in liverpool but to hear from the police of the exact sequence of events that led to the fatal shooting was just extraordinary. what the police are saying is at about 10pm last night, two men were walking down the street here when they were confronted by a man wearing a balaclava who had a gun who started shooting at them.

olivia's mum cheryl opened the door to see what the commotion was and one of the men being chased saw the door open and decided to seek refuge in the house, he forced his way past cheryl but he is being pursued by a man with a gun who pushes his way into the house as well and starts shooting randomly at everybody in there, his original target was the 35—year—old man he was chasing who received injuries but in the meantime he takes a shot at cheryl and olivia as well and the nine—year old girl takes a gun wound to the chest and is fatally injured. police were here quickly, they realised she was in such a serious condition that the police officers took her to hospital but she could not be saved. this is a shocking crime and the gunmen are still at large. it was around ten o'clock last night when a man forced his way

into a house in the dovecot area of liverpool and started shooting at those inside. a man and a woman were injured, a nine—year—old girl was killed. people living nearby heard the gunshots. i was watching the football and i heard the four shots — three, and then a later one rang out. i came upstairs and i said to her, "did you hear that?" and she said, "yeah." i said, "i don't think it was fireworks." it's absolutely disgusting. and i've woke up to find a little girl, nine—year—old girl, has been shot dead. yeah, it's getting too close now. it's every... you know, it's getting that way, someone's been shot or they've been stabbed and you go, "0h~ — another one." a large police cordon is now in place around the scene. this afternoon, detectives have held a news conference to give more information about their investigation. it is believed that onej of the injured parties,

a 35—year—old man, was being chased by a man armed with a gun, - who was firing at him. the man being chased _ forced his way into olivia's house and the offender ran in after him, firing a number of shots- with complete disregardl for olivia and her family, who had no connection - with the gunman or the man who forced his way in. this incident has shocked people in liverpool. it is the latest in a spate of shootings in the city. it is making people nervous. the fact a nine—year—old has lost her life, and as you say, 15 years yesterday since the city lost rhstones, there is absolutely no place for this sort of violence on our streets, particularly when we think of children and their lives ahead of them. a lot of people are shook today in our community. it will be a case of working with the police force and the local

community to try and reassure people and catch the perpetrators. that's the key thing, catching who has done this heinous crime. it is clear that what happened here has the full attention of merseyside police. the community now has to begin to process what happened and support the relatives of the little girl. they are, they are absolutely livid, that this is happened in their patch they're appealing to the person responsible to give themselves up there making it very clear that a line has been crossed in the criminal fraternity in liverpool instead of all long hard look at themselves to give up the person in themselves to give up the person in the of the people involved. police are stressing that theyjust do not want the person who fired the gun,

they want the assailant, the man who was with the man who was chased last night, the second person was chased by the gunmen, they want the person about the gun, they want the whole chain of people involved in this to give themselves up and come forward. there's a huge police operation under way today and they say that the person who was firing the gun had complete disregard for him and the mother and daughter and yet the situation afterwards with a 35—year—old man had been chased was injured outside the house here in the street and his friend calls by in a car, picks them up and takes them to a hospital, leaving olivia and her mum with their injuries in their home. no regard for them whatsoever. so, he was carted to wait a hospital need not traced the car involved in the driveway and their continuing their inquiries along those lines but they still have not gotten the key people

involved in this shocking crime and there will be more armed police on there will be more armed police on the streets of liverpool tonight and there will be a huge presence into there will be a huge presence into the people involved in this are caught. welljoining me now is former police officer and founder member of scotland yard's undercover unit who is also investigator and presenter on the bbc�*s podcast "manhunt: finding kevin parle" and author of to catch a killer: my hunt for the truth behind the doorstep murder. kevin parle is wanted in connection with the murders of 16—year—old liam kelly and 22—year—old mother—of—three lucy hargreaves who were gunned down in liverpool in 2005. utterly appalling, it is truly an atrocious crime and olivia would still be with us today if some cowardly unscrupulous trek of society hadn't taken a gun out into the streets of merseyside. the olice the streets of merseyside. the police clearly _ the streets of merseyside. the police clearly said today that now was not the time to remain tight—lipped. they really want

people to come forward with information. is that realistic? i’zfe information. is that realistic? i've sent a information. is that realistic? i've spent a lot _ information. is that realistic? i've spent a lot of— information. is that realistic? i�*e: spent a lot of time in information. is that realistic? i"9: spent a lot of time in liverpool information. is that realistic? i"9 spent a lot of time in liverpool in recent years and is almost a mantra that some people are brought up on and it's that you do not grass, talk to the police. however, this crime, this appalling murder of a nine—year—old girl transcends all of that. but unfortunately, serious organised crime the sun of a conscience so people are not going to be flocking to pick up the phones until the police what they know, i've summoned us a bit of soul—searching finds the courage to do the right thing. i5 soul-searching finds the courage to do the right thing.— do the right thing. is 'ust a horrible coincidence _ do the right thing. isjust a horrible coincidence that l do the right thing. isjust a - horrible coincidence that olivia was killed on the day 15 years to the day that she was shot dead in liverpool. does not know about that, does remind us about what happened rhys jones. does remind us about what happened rh sjones. , , does remind us about what happened rh sjones. ,, ., rhys jones. rhys was cycling for football training _ rhys jones. rhys was cycling for football training and _ rhys jones. rhys was cycling for football training and that - rhys jones. rhys was cycling for football training and that he - rhys jones. rhys was cycling forj football training and that he was

is the potential implications of completely discovering this deal and he will argue that if security exactly what he says in court and if i was twitter, i would be worried, you seem to share place slide a little silly terrible day for twitter. —— you've seen the share price slide. britain's intelligence agencies are facing accusations that they tipped off the indian authorities about a british man who was later seized and allegedly tortured. jagtar singhjohal, a sikh activist and blogger, was snatched off a street by indian police five years ago and has been in prison ever since. india denies suggestions of torture. but why is india interested in the man in the first place? well, let's hear more on that from frank gardner. he isa he is a human rights activist, very much looking at seek cases of alleged human rights abuses against

sikh nationals and a of glasgow, he is part of a sikh community and reprieve and redressed to organisations that look into cases of mistreatment of prisoners are convinced that he had come under and had to be examined by five british domestic intelligence agencies and as part of the intelligence sharing arrangements with india, they passed whatever info it was to them which reprieve sis contributed to his arrest and according to him, his mistreatment and electrocution of sensitive parts of the body, awful stuff. india denies it is happened and he has been examined, he certainly has not been well treated. his cases been raised more than once by british prime ministers, theresa may and borisjohnson as recently april when he went to india. and

what is really shocking here is that unless it is proved otherwise, it does, the burden of proof is on the government to disprove this because of the party parliamentary group on extraordinary renditions of said in the last couple of hours is that this does appear to be a breach of government rules namely that britain shares information with friendly nations of which india is one. but there's a serious risk of torture or maltreatment of an individual, they are not allowed to share that information and in my six and in five made it clear, they should've learned their lesson after cases like, this is a distant part of the liberal islamic fighting group and they assisted in the rendition back to libya where he was tortured and he survived that and documents were found in the ruins of the

intelligence headquarters of gaddafi saying that mi six had been complicit in his torture. in britain's attorney general had to stand up and say, we are really sorry. fullapology, stand up and say, we are really sorry. full apology, will not happen again in the packed lawyers and to mi five and mi six and they're supposed to, everything is must be done very much by the book and some quite surprised that this happened if the reprieve of got it right. joining me now is jagtar singh johal�*s local member of parliament martin docherty—hughes mp. what i can see from the documentations that mi five mi six were sharing information on someone called johal. the constituent and

last night, i was shocked that upon reflection, i'm certainly not surprised. i think frank is clear about the uk government breaking rules on a consistent basis with to go back to the intelligence and security committee of the house of commons which i believe at least since 2000, they have been saying the exact same thing. so we seem to have his security service which is limited if any oversight at all what they have done is put my constituent, a young man in a position where he could have been tortured and now being arbitrarily detained according to the uk group. we know theresa may and boris johnson retort as well, what should the current uk government, i mean borisjohnson is still prime minister, what should they do now having taken in this new information?— having taken in this new information? ~ , , :

was yesterday, monday was usually busy for the emergency services, for the coastguard, the board of force and the mod. if you look down there you can see some of the boats that have been used in recent days was up yesterday there was an average of 48 people per boat. it gives you a sense ofjust how overcrowded they are and how dangerous this crossing remains. what is clear is the french authorities will only intervene at cfa beau gets into difficulty. otherwise they will shadow boats until they get halfway across the channel and then they become the responsibility of the british authorities. that's why so many people are being picked up by sea and brought here. the government has repeatedly promised to make this route unviable, that money is given to the french to increase patrols on beachesin to the french to increase patrols on beaches in northern france. the mod has been brought into increased surveillance but the numbers continue to grow. there have been some talk in calais of a summer sale

byer. he is charged with the murder of thomas o'halloran as well as a possession of a dive. the court was told today that o'halloran died from multiple stab wounds to his neck, chest and stomach for the paramedics attended at the scene but were unable to save him. this hearing today was to decide whether lee byer was to be given bail and bail was refused and he will remain in custody until a plea hearing at the old bailey on november the 8th. the date for trial has been provisionally fixed for may next year. the new energy price will come into effect in october. the largest energy suppliers effect in october. the largest energy suppliers presented effect in october. the largest energy suppliers presented a plan to government last week which he says would freeze energy bills and prevent a price of emergency this winter. the chief executive of scottishpower is also outlining the

plan to scotland's first minister nicola sturgeon today. the idea of a so—called tariff deficit fund is growing in popularity among the industry and would involve the government guaranteeing loans to gas and electricity providers. tell us more about what is being outlined, how does this tariff deficit fund were? i think it's really interesting we are starting to hear the industry being quite vocal of the last couple days. we've heard in last two or three weeks campaigners, charities even the opposition talking about how serious the problem is. in the last couple of days its energy companies. this morning we heard from the boss of edf who told us he's worried customers are facing a catastrophic winter. what is the solution? that is where this tariff deficit fund comes in. it's so

called because it's essentially a fond to pay for the deficit between what it is costing suppliers and wholesale energy costs, the gap between that and the tariff that we can't realistically pay. it's become clear in recent weeks those sky—high estimates, those forecasts of what the tariff could be if it continues being in line with wholesale costs are just realistically impossible for a lot of people to pay. the key idea, gaining a lot of traction within the industry is it would freeze peoples bills at the current level or slightly higher for a couple of years. in the short term that would be paid for by the banks loaning money into a fund which these suppliers could then access and subsidise our bills, keeping them frozen at this level a slightly higher. who pays in long—term kids back key question because scottishpower think it could be about £100 billion. it would be paid

for over the next ten to 15 years with the big question is paid by who. there is ideas for that put up a very similar policy to the wand at the labour party are advocating. they field it could be paid through windfall tax we've seen. the energy companies today seem to think it would be better through either a levy on our bills. instead of paying it for a massive spike in energy because in october and january we pay for over the next ten to 15 years a more smoother version of these wholesale rises or through taxation. that might be preferable because you can target the tax on people to earn more and are able to pay more in tax. it would be politically unpopular in the current climate. the long term issue with the policy is that it's pushing the big problem, wholesale cost, wholesale price of buying gas pushing that down the track, its hoping that in ten to 15 years the

wholesale cost comes down returning to the boss of media who was speaking today says his policy could work only if it is combined with making sure there are ways that consumers can actually use less energy in the future. the final issue, this plan is unlikely to be in place for the 1st of october. that of course is when we know the bills are set to go up. they could go bills are set to go up. they could 9° up bills are set to go up. they could go up from £1900 a year to well over three and a half thousand. that's the latest forecast for that we find out for a definite the new level of the price on friday morning. ukraine is bracing for a possible wave of heightened russian aggression — after us officials warned russia is likely to step up attacks on civilian infrastructure and government buildings. tomorrow is ukraine's independence day — which also marks six months since russia's full invasion of the country. in the capital kyiv, public events have been banned for security reasons. our correspondentjames

marks white in escalation as a precaution to the irritant of president zelensky. it feels like a time gone by in a build up to this invasion where the west were warning of something more serious happening and ukraine was saying, we don't need to panic. i think things are different this time around. this is a country that continues to be under a country that continues to be under a full—scale invasion. for many people it is becoming a way of life, sadly. six months of a war that showing no signs of ending. thank ou showing no signs of ending. thank you james- _ thank you james. i am joined now by maria avdeeva, an independent ukrainian security analyst. thank you for talking to us. joining us from the capital. what is the mood like in kyiv right now? the --eole mood like in kyiv right now? the people are _ mood like in kyiv right now? ii9 people are worried mood like in kyiv right now? ti9 people are worried because there are numerous information that there might be admissible strikes on the days of ukrainian independence day

in the upcoming days. and clearly russia is using this information to create ground for legitimising such attacks. but you can see a lot of people are on the streets. they are advised to know where the nearest places to cover our, nearest basements or metro stations and they are advised to take cover as soon stay here air sirens and not to ignore. probably this night tonight will be one of the nights that people will be worried about it because of the possible missile attacks and missile strikes. for example, the second ukrainian largest city car kyiv the curfew for three consequence has just started. —— car key. people are told to stay home and not go outside at all. hope home and not go outside at all. how do ou

home and not go outside at all. how do you reflect _ home and not go outside at all. how do you reflect on _ home and not go outside at all. how do you reflect on the fact that it has been six months, half a year since russia invaded your country? the feelings are different because all they want hand i am happy that ukrainian nation showed the readiness for resistance and readiness for resistance and readiness to fight. putin was saying he will invade ukraine and will put russian tanks in kyiv in three days. now we have russian takes in care. but they are used for people as a backdrop for their selfie photos without russian tanks were destroyed throughout ukraine. this is a good thing. the bad thing is every day ukraine is losing the best of the best. according to the official information 9000 ukrainian soldiers were killed in this war. and there will be more killed and wounded in

this unjustified, lawful war, which is continuing. and it will not stop soon. we have to be ready to resist for a lot more than we work thinking this war will be going through. this is a hard thing to realise and to get ready for. is a hard thing to realise and to get ready for-— is a hard thing to realise and to get ready for. how do you think it will and? well, _ get ready for. how do you think it will and? well, every _ get ready for. how do you think it will and? well, every war- get ready for. how do you think it will and? well, every war ends i get ready for. how do you think it will and? well, every war ends atj will and? well, every war ends at some point- _ will and? well, every war ends at some point. but _ will and? well, every war ends at some point. but for _ will and? well, every war ends at some point. but for ukraine - will and? well, every war ends at some point. but for ukraine the l will and? well, every war ends at - some point. but for ukraine the most important thing is to restore the full territorial integrity in the ukrainian borders as they have been before the russian invasion. this is what ukrainian war is an people in ukraine are not ready for any kind of concessions because they know that even if there is any kind of peace deal made with russia, russia will not stop. they will use the time to regroup, get more resources

and attack again as they have done already because the war is continuing since 2014. the only possible way for ukrainians is to continue fighting and continue liberating in the temporarily occupied territories.- liberating in the temporarily occupied territories. thank you for talkin: to occupied territories. thank you for talking to us- _ supersize canisters are put in people that use a drug at serious risk. experts taper along the use of the drug can have life—changing in effects. including paralysis. a government—commissioned review is currently assessing whether tougher laws are needed. our reporter kashjones has met one woman whose been left with grave consequences. nitrous oxide — also known as nos, balloons, or laughing gas — is one of the most widely used drugs by young people in the uk.

and now, a more dangerous version is rising in popularity. smaller silver canisters holding around eight grams of nitrous oxide are being swapped to a super—sized version, which holds around 80 times the size. super—sized versions are riskier, experts say, because they can lead to people using higher quantities. with the larger canisters, people don't know how much gas is in there, so it could be that we see an increase in the number of these more serious cases. kerry—anne knows the risk of nitrous oxide all too well. she used the larger canisters, but only sparingly. i did try them, but they wasn't for me because it was just that i want to know how much i'm doing. i want to see how much i'm doing. for her, it was prolonged use of the smaller canisters that had life—changing effects. maybe in a week i would, like, do about 600 canisters. like, for the next week, i wouldn't be able to do nothing. i'd be sleeping 12—plus hours, i'd be vomiting, i'd be having sweats. i wouldn't eat, i couldn't drink water.

it led to kerry—anne being hospitalised. and ijust couldn't walk. i couldn't use my hands. she currently has no sensation in her legs. i can't do nothing for myself at the moment. ican't... it's not like i can get up and walk out my house, which is why i have my dad, like... obviously, i have to use a commode, so he changes that and he does, like, literally everything for me. demand for super—sized canisters is often driven by social media. this man began selling them online during the pandemic. and how easy was it to find customers through social media? 0h... a walk in the park. it's the word of mouth. i had people running it 24/7. so you know the actual effects it could have on the body — so how can you still, like, justify selling it to them? it's dangerous. i don't think people should do it, but as long as they do... - ..i'm going to sell it. selling nos for its psychoactive use is against the law — but possession of a larger canister isn't illegal.

a government—commissioned review is currently looking at whetherfurther action is needed. some believe the authorities should take nitrous oxide more seriously. it's not one of the priorities, to be honest, because police are doing other things — they are looking at hard drugs and violent crime. we've got constraints of resources, as well. kerry—anne has used her experience to warn others of the dangers of nos — posting videos on tiktok. i posted the first video, and that video kind ofjust went viral. since i've spoken out, i've had so many messages from people asking me for advice. ijust want to help others. and if you would like support or information on this issue, you can contact the bbc�*s action line — bbc dot co dot uk forward slash actionline back to liverpool in the fatal shooting of olivia pratt—korbel.

and enabling people to come into the church to find that safe space where they can sit and be and collect their thoughts, try to make sense of some of the thoughts. the church has been active but also very passive so that it's a steady presence for the people in this community. it's there for people of any faith and of no faith just to find a place of stillness. it does feel a bit of a circus around here with all the noise, people here. ithink circus around here with all the noise, people here. i think that's in a sense reinforcing a lot of the anxiety for the people in this community. they are going to be needing to process this stuff, making sense of it. there is nothing that will happen overnight that it is going to take time. hope that will happen overnight that it is going to take time.— is going to take time. how as a family do _ is going to take time. how as a family do you _ is going to take time. how as a family do you come _ is going to take time. how as a family do you come to - is going to take time. how as a family do you come to terms i is going to take time. how as a i family do you come to terms with something so utterly tragic? then;r something so utterly tragic? they are auoin something so utterly tragic? they are going to _ something so utterly tragic? they are going to have _ something so utterly tragic? they are going to have the _ something so utterly tragic? ti9 are going to have the shards something so utterly tragic? ti91: are going to have the shards of a broken heart crop coursing their veins. and they are going to be

asking questions, author only, if only we had opened the door. if only they'd been asleep for the all those kinds of questions that actually only served to torment. that's not helpful. we have to live in the reality however painful and challenging it is. it's by living in the reality that we can start coming to terms with what it is we are experiencing and finding our own physical and verbal articulation of the grief we are experiencing. here's the thing as christians we believe, we can all of us comfort when another with kind words and can and often a shoulder. as christians we truly believe that the wand that is passed to the cross and the grave is there to comfort. he says blessed all you want for you will be comforted. my prayers for this community and the grieving family is that they will that peace that

passes all understanding, they will know that love being enveloped and comfort for themselves. the know that love being enveloped and comfort for themselves.— comfort for themselves. the right reverend beverly _ comfort for themselves. the right reverend beverly mason. - now it's time for a look at the weather. hello. we've had a lot of low cloud and quite misty and murky. through the night tonight we will see some rain. it's been quite a warm, humid day, it will serve like that overnight. this weather front will p0p up overnight. this weather front will pop up some more intense rainfall, gradually moving its way across west wales and pushing its way up to the northwest of england put up might see what or whether gradually moving into south west england at the same time we will see some showers pushing their way through scotland put up a bit of a messy story of an eye, a lot of clattering, wind direction from the southwest so still saying very humid indeed. we start off tomorrow morning with plenty of showers close to this area of low pressure in the north. this weather front stationary sitting out

front along the west and east of that a warm, humid start, some breaks in the cloud, some sanch coming through and that is where we will see the highest of the temperatures. this brain can be pretty relentless throughout the day and that could have quite an impact on the feel of the weather. we are looking at around 15 to 20 degrees to north and west, highs of 27 to 30 celsius in the south—east. there is our weather front, celsius in the south—east. there is ourweatherfront, it's celsius in the south—east. there is our weather front, it's going to gradually drift its way eastwards but it's like stretching out a piece of dough, it loses its elasticity and we will see a band of cloud as we go towards thursday morning it is going to still stay pretty warm and humid and still quite volatile in that south—east corner. we could see sharp, thundery downpours developing first thing on thursday morning. they are not going to last long and they will use away from the essex and kent coast. quite a lot of cloud in its wake behind but behind that cloud we will see more in the way of sunshine starting to come through

and just a scattering of showers into the far northwest. it's a very messy story to try and paid over the next few days. a little bit fresher by thursday, top temperatures into the mid—20s. as we move into the weekend the wind direction changes to more of a northwesterly. we will start to see a fresher field for all, this area of low pressure could gradually bring rain in from the west. a lot of dry weather around and with a change of wind direction just feeling a little bit fresher then we've got at the moment.

today at six — the nine—year—old shot dead on merseyside is named by police. olivia pratt—korbel was killed after a man being chased by a gunman ran into her home last night. it's absolutely disgusting and i've woke up to find a little girl, nine—year—old girl, been shot dead. police appeal for the gunman to hand himself in and for anyone with information to come forward. this is not the time for anyone who knows who is responsible for this shooting to remain tight—lipped. we'll be live at the scene — and look at the latest data on gun crime. also this evening: student nurse owami davies has been found safe and well — after going missing seven weeks ago
