this is bbc news — these are the latest headlines in the uk and around the world. a massive fire breaches the strategically important road and rail bridge connecting occupied crimea to russia. ukrainian officials say they've found two mass burial sites in the recently liberated town of lyman — one with around 200 graves. funerals are being held in thailand for the children and teachers killed in a massacre at a nursery school. police say seven people have been killed in an explosion at a petrol station in county donegal, in the republic of ireland. taking flight — international airlines sign off a non—binding deal to reduce carbon emissions to zero by 2050.

cheering and it's merry across the mersey as liverpool is picked to host next year's eurovision song contest. hello and welcome if you're watching in the uk or around the world. the rail bridge connecting occupied crimea to russia has been severely damaged by a fire, and the road bridge next to it has collapsed. images widely shared on social media show a train on the kerch rail bridge engulfed in flames. the cause of the damage is unclear. the adviser to the head of the office of president of ukraine twitted "crimea, the bridge, the beginning" the bridge across the kerch strait

was opened by president putin four years after moscow illegally annexed crimea. these pictures show putin driving a truck, leading a convoy across the newly—opened bridge in 2018. all this comes as ukraine says two mass burial sites have been found in the eastern town of lyman, which has been recently liberated from russia. danjohnson has the latest. dawn this morning revealed a major blow for russia and its main connection to crimea. this is a key road road and railway bridge linking the peninsula. officials confirmed fuel tanks caught fire, apparently part of a freight train crossing the bridge, but it's not clear what caused this. sections of the road have also collapsed into the sea. this is an important connection strategically for getting supplies to crimea, and to russian forces in southern ukraine. but it's also symbolic. it was opened by vladimir putin in 2018, four years after russia annexed crimea.

in the areas most recently freed from russian occupation, there is more evidence of what people have endured. this is lyman, a town retaken by the ukrainians a week ago, and this is said to be a mass grave uncovered nearby containing the bodies of soldiers and civilians. one report says 180 of them. investigators are now working out who they are and how they died. another report claims there are 200 more bodies buried at a second site. there's no doubt which side is succeeding. but ukraine's advances are also raising fears of russia's potential response. the prospect of vladimir putin using nuclear weapons on the battlefield. hello. ukraine's president had caused alarm when he appeared to suggest preemptive strikes. but speaking to my colleaguejohn simpson, he clarified that meant

preemptive sanctions — kicks, he called them. he does believe the russian people are being prepared for a serious escalation. they begin to prepare their society. that is very dangerous. they are not ready to do it, to use it, but they begin to communicate. do you mean prepare society for using a nuclear weapon? you know, it's. .. they don't know if they will use or they will not use. i think that it's dangerous even to speak about it. that i said you have to do preventive kicks, not attacks. we are not terrorists and we don't fight on another territory. do you think that president putin is capable of launching nuclear weapons and using them? translation: ifi say, for example, i they're incapable of using nuclear. weapons than an inadequate person who has this power in his hands will say, "really, i can't? "well, here, see how i can"

and therefore use it. now, if i say he can use it, it can cause panic modes in many countries, including ukraine. all that putin is afraid of is not even a nuclear strike. he's afraid of his own society, he's afraid of his own people because only these people can replace him, strip him of his power. the ukrainian president, his army and their people are currently on the front foot with the momentum, but they all know there's a long, tough winter ahead. dan johnson, bbc news. i'm joined now byjustin crump — a defence, intelligence and security expert and the british army veteran, who is also a sibylline risk intelligence firm head. looking at the images that you will have seen so far, what is your assessment of what has happened here? it assessment of what has happened here? ., ., , ~' , ., here? it looks extremely unlikely to have been an _

here? it looks extremely unlikely to have been an accident, _ here? it looks extremely unlikely to have been an accident, especially i here? it looks extremely unlikely to | have been an accident, especially as per the russian narrative. there are very few images of what appears to have been the incident itself, but it does look as if it started on the road bridge side, the northern side of the bridge. the fireball seems to have ignited the trainer that was waiting at the railway bridge, so it seems to have happened in that sequence. the story as the train caught fire and then damaged the road bridge and that doesn't really hold water. that doesn't appear to be true and therefore it is almost certainly some form of human action and ukraine has more or less with a nod and a wink suggested it could be them and that certainly fits the most likely narrative. it is the most likely narrative. it is the most obvious target for ukraine. it is very, very hard to ascertain what is very, very hard to ascertain what is true. i think what is most important is what is needed for the future, given that it was almost certainly a ukrainian operation. what is the strategic significance of this rail and road link being out

of this rail and road link being out of action? _, , of action? dan covered it very well. it is of key — of action? dan covered it very well. it is of key strategic _ of action? dan covered it very well. it is of key strategic significance. i it is of key strategic significance. it is of key strategic significance. it is of key strategic significance. it is the association with putin himself, built by him and his cronies, a flagship connection to bring crimea back to russia from his point of view. and that is very, very significant in itself, that they have lost that and that it has been struck, even if it is not totally out of use, it does appear totally out of use, it does appear to be able to be partially replaced. we saw over the summer when there were attacks on airbases in crimea people trying to flee. well, that is going to be worse now. they still have a lan connection to crimea, where they have captured that territory in the south. that is not as good, though, clearly, as having the bridge. they can still use ships but it is all going to restrict supply and that is going to certainly cause a lot of uncertainty in the russian side. i think that most importantly keeping the russian military guessing about how it can

stop more attacks like this. where does it need to put its troops now? how does it recalibrate supply lines? it is going to keep them off—balance which already are because of the ukrainian counter offences. �* , , offences. and there is the practical and symbolic— offences. and there is the practical and symbolic significance - offences. and there is the practical and symbolic significance of - offences. and there is the practical| and symbolic significance of ukraine apparently taking this fight to this part of the country. annexed by russia number of years ago. at the same time as it has been taken back territory from the russians, including bits annexed by russia just a matter of days ago. yes. including bits annexed by russia just a matter of days ago. yes, the key objective _ just a matter of days ago. yes, the key objective within _ just a matter of days ago. yes, the key objective within that _ just a matter of days ago. yes, the key objective within that area - just a matter of days ago. yes, the key objective within that area is - key objective within that area is the crimean canal, which i think it is significant for retaining agriculture and life support within the crimean peninsula. when that was cut off by ukraine, that caused russia a lot of problems and that was a very early target for the russian military was to capture where that canal starts to run

across kherson into crimea itself, and the hydroelectric dam where that terminates is a key objective for the ukrainian military so crimea feeling multiple threats very quickly, having been made uncertain over the summer by these incidents that were happening with airbase attacks, drone attacks. obviously, now i think that will cause panic within the russian military and people living in crimea. it is going to accelerate, as they can see, this insular effect of drawing closer to their ability to maintain the peninsula, which is accepted to begin problem for russia, certainly one of prestige. he is certainly most concerned about his own people and his own hardliners who are pushing for much harder action on the back of what we are seeing already. the back of what we are seeing alread . ~ . , , ., ., the back of what we are seeing alread. . , , ., ., , already. which brings me onto my final question, _ already. which brings me onto my final question, given _ already. which brings me onto my final question, given the - already. which brings me onto my final question, given the pressure| final question, given the pressure his troops are under on the ground as you have just been outlining, what you think the response might be from president putin? we have heard that interview with the president of ukraine done by our world affairs editorjohn simpson, where he said he thought the russian people were

being prepared perhaps for some sort of nuclear intervention. it is what everyone is absolutely terrified of. what do you think russia's next steps will be? i what do you think russia's next steps will be?— what do you think russia's next steps will be? i still think nuclear is re steps will be? i still think nuclear is pretty much — steps will be? i still think nuclear is pretty much the _ steps will be? i still think nuclear is pretty much the very _ steps will be? i still think nuclear is pretty much the very top - steps will be? i still think nuclear is pretty much the very top of - steps will be? i still think nuclear. is pretty much the very top of their escalation ladder. i think they have a way to go first before they resort to that. they have not even launched mass strikes rather than precision strikes against civilian centres. they have never attacked the decision—making centres they have threatened to. so there are other things russia can try to escalate towards before getting as far as do they don't the nuclear button. of course, they are making the noise about it, the rhetoric and the posture about it because they want the west scared at this point and they want voices to start raining ukraine income terminating ukrainian successes, so that russia has time to re—establish its line, to bring forward the hundreds of thousands of people it is trying to mobilise at

this stage. they have got so any problems racking up that i think putin is running out of options before he gets to that nuclear eventual end state. to be effective and that russians don't have time to get ratcheting up the pressure because the ukrainians are overtaking them, so certainly i think there is a mood of how on earth do we give a decent reprisal to this that is going to be effective because they have had failed large missile attacks and that would send the wrong message, that would send the wrong message, that russia could not strike back and that will further implode —— bold and ukraine. i thing they will be desperately working out what to do at present putin not having a very good day on his day off for his 70th birthday. not a good one to wake up to. in thailand, preparations are underway for the first funerals of the children and teachers killed in a rampage at a nursery centre. 37 people, including more than 20 children, were murdered by a former police officer on thursday in a rural town in the

north of the country. our south east correspondent, jonathan head, is there and has been telling us more about the extended funeral rites that will be held for the victims. it is very much a community occasion. everyone is here come a lot of the tie institutions, the army, the palace and the king are sending in resources, food, shelters, things like this, to make sure it is an event, the sendoff of these children, which is shared by these children, which is shared by the whole country. we are expecting bathing rights, which is an important part of the thai funeral for the bodies of the children to begin later this afternoon and there will be proceedings going on probably for the cremations, which may take place as late as the middle of next week. the mother of a teenage girl who died during protests in iran has accused authorities of murdering her daughter. authorities say nika shakarami, who was 16, appears to have been thrown from a building,

possibly by workmen. but nasrin shakarami said she had seen injuries on her daughter's body which contradict an official statement. meanwhile, a forensic report has said the woman whose death sparked the protests died from ill health. the family of mahsa amini, a 22—year—old iranian kurd, say she died as a result of being beaten by morality police. just one—in—five train services across england, scotland and wales are expected to run today, as rail workers take part in their latest strike action. more than 40,000 rmt union members and network rail staff are striking, with people being urged to avoid travelling unless necessary. marta newman reports. for the second consecutive saturday, railservices are grinding to a halt. members of the rmt union at 15 rail operators and crucially network rail are walking out again overjobs, pay, and conditions. it is yet more travel misery for millions of people. you're not expecting this, you want to go somewhere,

and then the strike is messing up all your plans, no? very annoyed, yeah. because we are spending all day travelling now. we went to london bridge, there was nothing, so we have come to king's cross. yeah, yeah. it is super expensive as well. the rmt says 40,000 of its members, from guards to signalling staff and some drivers, are taking part in the strike. members of the tssa union are also walking out. it means just a fifth of the usual rail services in england, scotland, and wales will be running today. there have been talks this week with network rail and also with the rail delivery group, which is the train operating side. unfortunately, offers haven't been made that are acceptable. in actualfact, not a lot has changed. network rail has made a pay offer and says it is still willing to compromise to try and find a breakthrough. we have significantly changed what we were proposing originally,

and will continue to have discussions, but what i think we need to see is compromise from the other side as well, and some realism, frankly, about the state of the railway. the new transport secretary, anne—marie trevelyan, met with union leaders recently for talks face—to—face, something her predecessor refused to do. the rmt union is about to ballot its members for a fresh strike mandate, which means if they say yes, we could see more industrial action well into next year. anyone whose train is cancelled today can reschedule or get a refund and possibly compensation. small consolation, though, for yet another day of disruption on britain's rails. marta newman, bbc news. the headlines on bbc news... a massive fire breaches the strategically important road and rail bridge connecting occupied crimea to russia. ukrainian officials say they've found two mass burial sites in the recently liberated town

of lyman — one with around 200 graves. funerals are being held in thailand for the children and teachers killed in a massacre at a nursery school. seven people are now known to have died after an explosion at a petrol station in ireland. a search operation is currently underway at the site of the blast, which happened in county donegal yesterday afternoon. a number of people are still believed to be missing. our ireland correspondent chris page has the details. blown out walls, a crumpled roof and tens of rubble were the signs this was a lethal explosion. the blast triggered a wave of devastation and desperation. local people hurried to what was left of the petrol station to see who amongst their friends and relatives may have been caught up in the incident. some drove tractors to start removing the debris.

a coastguard helicopter arrived to help airlift the injured to hospital. paramedics and firefighters from northern ireland came across the border to join their colleagues in the irish republic in the operation. they searched through the remains of flats which were above the garage shop and largely collapsed. there were reports that several people who were trapped managed to make contact with the emergency services but it isn't clear how many are missing. creeslough is a small village with about 400 residents. never would the community have imagined facing such horror. i was in the house at the time and my house is only about 150 yards from the town and i heard an explosion at around 3.30. instantly i knew it was something, you know. the bang sounded like a bomb going off. so, i knew something tragic had happened. ijust feel so sad and so shocked for this community and people waiting for news about loved

ones, it is a really difficult time. i it is devastating, it is shocking, i it's numbing, there are no words. we are devastated but those that may l receive bad news will be, you know, i it is unbelievable. it is heartbreaking, there is no words. i the leader of the irish government, the taoiseach, said this was the darkest of days for the entire country. the cause of the explosion will be investigated but that'll come later as, for now, nothing is taking priority over the rescue efforts. the scottish national party will accuse the uk government of "chaos and confusion" when it opens its conference in aberdeen this morning. the party's deputy leader, keith brown, is expected to tell delegates that their homes, pensions and incomes aren't safe "under westminster control" — and that independence is the only way for scotland to escape

what he will call "tory chaos". our political correspondent david wallace lockhart is there for us in aberdeen. is your saying earlier, there is going to be an emphasis on that idea of chaos in westminster at the snp conference. is there going to be much look ahead to the issue of independence? it is always an underlying theme in what the snp is saying but how much of the focus will be on that? well, let's remember, this is the snp leadership talking to party members, party activists and delegates. independence is going to come up time and time again at this conference because it is the ultimate goal that everyone who has gathered here in aberdeen once. we saw keith brown, the deputy leader of the snp open the conference and speu of the snp open the conference and spell out the pitch at the moment at the party is making, which is that there is economic turmoil coming from westminster and actually even if there is uncertainty about what

scottish independence might entail, what he is saying is that that is less uncertainty than what staying in the uk could offer at the moment. there are plenty who would disagree with that assessment. we also saw another theme running through keep down cosmic speech there, taking aim at the labour party. we know that labour are pulling quite well at the moment. they look like they could form the next government, that keir starmer could be prime minister after a general election. we could take that with a pinch of salt but they certainly do seem to be going in that direction and i think the snp are trying to start turning some attention to labour and claiming that things would not be very different under a labour government. we heard that he is —— that keir starmer is another tony blair and the fact that the labour party wants to keep brexit advertising the fact that scotland voted against brexit, backin that scotland voted against brexit, back in that referendum in 2016. i think labour would argue that they would reform the uk in a way that would reform the uk in a way that

would benefit scotland. so i think we have seen their way of the snp is going to be making its pitch in the months and the years potentially even ahead. quite an interesting nugget at the end of keith brownspeech when he talked about campaigning and convincing people who are not convinced yet by scottish independence with kindness. so i think looking ahead to a potential referendum that we know the scottish government wants to have next year. but far from certain that that will be taking place at this point. looking ahead, no doubt it will be the subject of many conversations at conference, to the court case which will be examining that question about whether the westminster government needs to give permission for another referendum to happen. that's right. and that can often be a theme at snp conferences, when the party gathers, that there is a debate around tactics for securing independence. that can sometimes bring a bit of argument about whether things are proceeding quickly enough, whether the approach is the right one or not. beasley, what the leadership has to point towards is that supreme court case that will be heard this week where

scottish government will be putting forward its argument. it believes that the scottish government can legislate for an independence referendum with our without uk government agreement. uk ministers say that is not the case, it is a reserved matter, and it would have to be agreed by the uk government. 0k, to be agreed by the uk government. ok, david, thank you very much. the snp talking about independence, about leaving the union. sirjeffrey donaldson will address his first democratic unionist party conference as party leader when members meet in belfast later today. it is understood the dup leader will call for the "broadest coalition of support" for the union, from across the community. he is expected to say that "unionism should have no barriers to entry beyond a belief that northern ireland is best served as a part of the uk"

our correspondent charlotte gallagher is in belfast. hello, charlotte. really interesting words from jeffrey donaldson. patti ever put the argument quite in this way before? no, he hasn't. he seems quite conciliatory, doesn't he? saying that unionism isn'tjust for dup supporters and supporters of other unionist parties across northern ireland. it is for anyone who wants to remain in the united kingdom. we know that he will saying his speech today that unionism is important and that northern ireland is best served remaining in the uk and he will also talk about building and he will also talk about building a better northern ireland, notjust for the dup and its supporters, but for the dup and its supporters, but for every community within northern ireland. so much more broad than perhaps before. but of course the issue that is overshadowing this is ireland ireiand protocoi. ireiand protocoii. large the northern ireland protocol. large who is the dup chairman, he this morning and said that

spoke this morning and he said that it was a and no way the dup 90an :*::f;, if 90mg qb”? ,.—.—;’j%,: going to stormont until it was going back to stormont until it had gone, essentially. because the situation we have a northern ireland is that many people —— and as many people will know, is that there is no function power sharing agreement because the dup had stepped away from it completely and they say they are not coming back until the northern ireland protocol, which essentially means some goods coming into northern ireland have to be checked at border points, until that is gone. now, there is a really crucial date coming up your as well. the 28th of october. if the dup has not returned to stormont by then, then they will have to be fresh elections in northern ireland. and thatis elections in northern ireland. and that is the last thing that people in northern ireland want. they are like the people in the rest of the uk and the world, there is a cost of living crisis and they want focus on the nhs, public transport, energy bills. not another distracting election. so potentially two quite

difficult lines to reconcile, charlotte, that tough line on the protocol, which as you mentioned is preventing the government working again at stormont, and then also this reaching out to people who might want to see that government working at stormont and saying, you know, you can be part of what the dup is talking about as well. it is a really hard line to tread, anita. i think especially today at the conference, in a room full of dup supporters, many of whom have the same fixed idea on the protocol. they do not want to come back. and then you are trying to entice people in, who are saying, hang on a second, we are worrying about energy bills. we want to forget about the northern ireland protocol and just go back to work. and we saw yesterday the uk and ireland very kind of positive talks. the olive branch seems to be given to both sides and they were saying that they think and deal can be reached on the

protocol, but they said it won't come before the 28th of october and the dup have said they simply will not take words and promises. they want actions before they go back to stormont. thank you very much. you are watching bt news. we've been speaking a lot about eurovision this morning because liverpool has beaten glasgow in the race to host the 2023 contest. but we're going to take you behind the curtain now, because on nights like last night — what we have to do is send a reporter to each of the cities, to ensure that we are at the one which wins. the reporter at the losing city almost never gets on air. but our entertainment correspondent colin paterson had such a peculiar time in glasgow, we thought we'd let you see what happened. so only five minutes now until we find out the host city of eurovision
