surrounding area and politicians from across the republic of ireland and northern ireland. the prime minister here, the teacher, micheal martin was here, the deputy prime minister leo varadkar surrounded by the family and friends of those who died in this tragedy on friday. creeslough. ten red candles representing each of the victims was laid at the start travelled by default were laid at the chapel and we are expecting huge crowds of people come here today. —— taosearch. this is notjust a village in shock, it's an ireland in shock and here in a place ofjust 400 people, everyone will know somebody who was killed or injured. there will be no—one untouched by this. and the scars of what happened will continue to be carried by people in this village. someone said as well it's the darkest day for so, so many years on this island, to think that people on a friday

afternoon going to the petrol station to buy sweets or a cake have died in an explosion and i'm outside a house here that's also been partially destroyed. windows have been blown and there is glass all on the floor under my feet and the curtains are being blown out from the windows. it's really such a scene of devastation and one of the most picturesque task of ireland, when you are driving here it's beautiful, this rural area and you get here and at the scene of chaos and later this morning, petrol station behind me are going to start being demolished and investigations really will into what caused this dreadful, dreadful tragedy. charlotte, thank you. divers will examine the damage caused by an explosion on the only road link between russia and the occupied crimean peninsula after president putin ordered a full investigation into the blast. the bridge, which is seen as a symbol of moscow's illegal annexation of the region, has reopened to light traffic, despite partially collapsing. 0ur russia editor

steve rosenberg reports. it is the bridge the kremlin built, and it was under attack. an explosion at dawn. this was the result. russian officials claim a lorry had been blown up here and that the fire then spread to a fuel train. whatever the cause, you could see the damage. this is the bridge that links russia to annexed crimea and parts of the road had collapsed into the sea. later, investigators announced that three people had been killed. they have opened a criminal case. the i2—mile long road and rail bridge is not only strategically important to the kremlin as a supply route, it is also a symbol of the russian annexation of crimea. vladimir putin opened it in 2018, getting behind the wheel to show

that, as far as he was concerned, russia and crimea were joined forever. very different scenes today. pro—kremlin commentators have blamed ukraine for the explosion but there has been no claim of responsibility from kyiv. it is noticeable how the situation has changed here, and the messaging. a few months ago, russians were being told by their leaders and by the state media that the so—called special military operation would be relatively brief and victorious. now, they are being told that there are problems, that russia is losing ground. and they learned about the attack on a hugely symbolic location — the crimean bridge. news of the attack has sparked concern amongst the public here but the russians we spoke to had different ideas about how the kremlin should react.

"it's worrying," stas says. "war is always bad. "they should've done this differently, with negotiations." but 0lga says, "putin must respond. "what a birthday present they gave him! "we should blow up the train lines ukraine uses to get its military "aid from america. "this is nato's fault." but from vladimir putin, there has been no reaction yet to what happened here, no hint as to how he will respond. steve rosenberg, bbc news, st petersburg. deputy first minister of scotland john swinney is expected to tell snp members at the party conference today that calls for more nuclear energy in scotland are to "make up for the failure of energy policy in the united kingdom". it comes after the prime minister said she wanted to work with the scottish government to use more of the resources in the north sea and build nuclear power stations to ensure long—term energy security.

protestors have again taken to the streets of iran as demonstrations against the country's hardline islamic rulers enter their fourth week. reports say at least three people have been shot dead by security forces during the latest protests. the wave of unrest across iran began after the death in custody of a young woman who had been arrested by the morality police. this report from our diplomatic correspondent caroline hawley contains images that some viewers may find distressing. chanting. there's a target to their anger, and he's inside the building. these students in tehran are shouting at the country's president to "get lost" as he visits their university. inside, ebrahim raisi recited a poem, likening the protesters to flies. a receptive audience here. applause. but elsewhere in the capital, there were chants of "death

"to the dictator" — a reference to iran's supreme leader — with protests reported in many cities across the country today. video posted on social media shows riot police close to tehran�*s main bazaar in the centre of the city, in normal times seen as a bastion of support for the regime. but many shopkeepers had shut up their stores in support of the protesters, who set fire to a police kiosk. and this was the eastern city of mashhad today, where new protests brought new grief. screaming. here, a young woman has been shot in the neck by iran's security forces. distressed cries. it was the death last month of mahsa amini, arrested for being improperly dressed, which ignited this wave of unrest. her family say she was beaten in custody. her gravestone reads that her name will become a symbol, and it has, as iranians find

new ways of resisting the regime. the billboard here reads that the police are the servants of the people, but this man, cheered on by others, changes it to read, "killers of the people," and calls for the death of the supreme leader. and this banner draped over a main road reads, "we are not afraid any more. "we'll fight. " after nightfall, the protests continued. no—one knows quite where they'll lead, but the crisis of legitimacy facing the islamic regime is deepening by the day. caroline hawley, bbc news. more than 1,300 people who have received football banning orders in england and wales are being told to hand their passports to the police from friday to prevent them travelling to the world cup in qatar. the home office says violent and abusive fans will not be allowed to disrupt the tournament, which begins next month. anybody who fails to hand over their passport and attempt

i think the same things gonna happen going underwater. it's going to get less expensive and much more accessible. radio: go for launch. this is the point of no return. if there was any point to freak out, now would be the point to freak out. this is an experimental sub. people are informed that it's very dangerous down there. am i spinning? yes. oh, my god. and scott is like, "oh no, we have a problem." i was thinking, "we're not gonna make it! "we can't go anywhere but go in circles!" ijust need to get there. radio: can you hear? do we have communications?

so this is a menu from the titanic itself on the day it actually sank, and i very strangely came across it in a very small auction in ireland. radio: go ahead. yes, sir. secure the anchor. phone rings. hello? so, i've heard the comparison. like, at titanic depth, it would like having an aircraft carrier sitting on the sub. it gives you an idea of how much pressure there really is. that's my mexican flag. this is the white star line i pin, a titanic expedition pin. radio: go ahead. yes, sir. radio: roger that, go ahead. the ship was made in norway,

so most of the medications are norwegian, but there are also non—us medications, so it's like going to an ikea in france — everything is in metric and it's in french and it's completely confusing, because it's ikea to start with. i have a titanic patch from the expedition. this is just the titanic, the jacket patch. laughs. yes. people are so enthralled with titanic that it became a must—do dive. i read an article that said there are three words in the english language that are known throughout the planet and that's �*coca—cola', �*god', and �*titanic�*. it's just such an interesting period of time that i got really interested in the both the ship's history and the dreams of the ship, but also the people's history and their dreams, as well. the titanic has always

been in my family, i in terms of history. my father's from northern ireland, he's was born i in derry, spent a lot of time in belfast. l and growing up as a child, he always spoke about i the titanic because obviously, it was built in belfast. - we've always had what we call in irish "a gra" — _ which is a love i for the whole history and the story of the titanic, so i'm really- pleased to be here. i've been keeping myself very fit and watching my diet. i i had covid a few years ago. in the meantime, i had a little| operation and everything else, and still got myself ready and prepared for this i because it means a lot to me. when i was a kid, nobody had found it, nobody knew where it was, so i decided that i was going to go find it, so i needed to study science and oceanography. my first week of college, they found it. somebody beat me to it. it was september 1st, 1985.

there was a picture of a boiler in black and white on television, and the dream...just crumbled. i switched my career to banking. and i started searching for a way to go. i wasn't sure how i was going to get to titanic but i knew i had to go. i'm not a millionaire. i've been saving money for a long, long time. i made a lot of sacrifices in my life to be able to go to titanic. i don't have a car. i didn't get married yet. i don't have children. and all of those decisions have been because i wanted to go to titanic. when i met stockton, i told him, "here's my money." he said, "wait a minute! "we haven't even built the sub!" applause.

just quick orientation for the sub. this is a forward dome which opens and closes. we have the pressure hole in the centre — that's 5—inch thick carbon fibre. vertical and horizontal thrusters you can see there. i like to tell people, "this is not your grandfather's "submarine." it's got one button, and that's it. yeah, so we run the sub with this game controller. it's made by logitech but it's basically a sony playstation—style controller. if you want to go forward, you press forward. if you want to go back, you press back. if you want to turn to the left, its like that. you want to turn to the right, you turn to the right. test at 12 volts. go ahead. i started off with a partly finished home—build sub that i'd built myself. then i formed the business and acquired a sub that we modified heavily and sort of figured

out what we wanted. then we made the first level prototype of this which was cyclops i, that was very similar but was a steel hull that already existed, but it had some of the similar electronics. and then, this was the ultimate version that we always wanted. sojust another additional backup. it's a miracle it can do i what it does when you look at it there, becausej when you look at it, it is very small. it looks like it's put together with pieces of string. - but it's not, obviously. but it's — it's exciting. in general, the biology theme is one of documenting biodiversity — that hasn't been done well on this wreck. there's sort of a race to understand the deep sea which is largest environment in the oceans, and the most poorly explored. here, we're trying to give that

experience, check off your box to see the titanic but, at the same time, contribute to something that has a wider application. so, this is pretty typical of what we saw on the dive. you can see this black igneous rock, but look at the number of sponges, and that's what really hit us right away. i was asked by 0ceangate to be the chief scientist of their expeditions. that involves organising a science team and establishing long—term monitoring stations on the wreck. the earth is changing, the climate's changing. the deep sea drives the earth's climate. most of the oxygen that's produced comes from marine plankton, so changes in the ocean have a huge impact over the whole globe. the team always says, you know, there's no guarantee you're gonna see the bow, there's no guarantee you're gonna get down there because there are so many variables, you know. some are man—made, some are nature, sometimes it's both put together. i was able to join their

expedition last year. we took the dive and dove for about two hours and maybe 15 minutes or so. i heard we got within like two football fields of the titanic, and then suddenly stockton says, "oh, we got to turn around." and at first i thought he was joking because we were over two hours into our expedition and so close to the bottom. but then he explained one of the batteries kind of went kaput and we were having trouble using the electronic drops for the weights, so it would be hard for us to get back up to the surface. the stakes were quite high at that point. i was really intrigued with, like, ok, so we can't get to the site tonight, what are our options? we had discussed actually staying, just sleeping at the bottom of the ocean in the submersible. we have special weights on the submersible that will dissolve after 24 hours, so they would just drop off and then we would be able to get up to the surface.

that's one option. we're down here for another 16 to 24 hours. we will drift down, we will hit the bottom. we will have communications, we can talk to them. i'm fine with staying here. it's your call, stockton. it's only if...renata and jaden, mostly. yeah, well. yeah, i'm fine with staying down here. i was all about sleeping in the submersible overnight. i think me and someone else were, but then the other half of the crew were not as happy about that. are you still pumping? yeah. what do you have, pressure wise? 58. somehow stocktown managed to hydraulic pump it manually so gently that it was able to slowly release the weights. yeah, very good. we've retained our—. wait a second. we are starting to come up. we are? yeah. 0k. we're definitely coming up. i think you did it, - stockton, you 98% did it. hey, there's some luck here! high five!

high five on my count, yes, here we go. ok, maybe a win—win. maybe. yeah, or maybe they want... this is why you want your pilot to be an engineer. l it's an open book here, if you have any questions about what's going on, about acoustic monitoring, about carbon fibre, problems we had, rumours of problems we had, actual problems we had, you know, feel free to ask me, we're happy to show everything. we want everyone going into this fully informed. this is an experimental sub, this is dangerous environment, it's 6000 psi. very few people have been down there, and so we want to make sure that you're going in with an open eye and understand what's going on. if you don't want to do it at any time, feel free to say, "hey, i want to take a pass," and we can work something out. you know, maybe bring you another year or something else. but i really want to make sure that you're aware of all this.

on a mission four, when we got to the surface — scott was piloting — we hear a really loud bang, not a soothing sound. no. but on the surface, as the inaudible will attest, almost every deep diving sub makes a noise at some point. i don't know. i don't have expectations of how i'm going to feel. i know when i think about it, i cry, so there will probably be a lot of crying when i'm down there. um, but i don't know, we'll see. every night before a dive, everyone gets together and draws on some of these styrofoam cups. they attach them to the submersible before they do the dive and go down. every night before a dive, everyone gets together and draws on some of these styrofoam cups. they attach them to the submersible before they do the dive and go down. and when they go underwater, they are under lots of pressure and they compress. and when they come up we have all these little, tiny mini cups. so i think everyone does

a bunch and brings them back to their friends and family as a little souvenir. so, my alarm just went off. it's about 3:30 in the morning. we're supposed to be on the back deck by 4am to start the process of loading up and everything. so, it's not very often i wake up this early but it seems worth it for today. i was pretty grumpy waking up at 3:30, but when i think about the passengers who might�*ve also have woken up really early to catch their horse and carriage, or whatever, to take them to the dock, it made me feel

like a kinship with them and also kind of grounded me in what i was doing. the dome is open and i step up into the sub, um, you know, i get chatting with the fellow passengers — which is probably what the titanic passengers did, as they all kind of boarded at the same time. alright, happy day. i know i'm going to be seasick, so i sort of commandeered the front of it so that i can get to the port hole, and then the dome slowly, slowly closes in front of me, and i have this moment of, like — this is the point of no return. i am not claustrophobic by any

means but in that moment, i'm like, well, if there was any point to freak out, now would be the point to freak out. and i sort of did a — i do a gut check with myself, and i say, "nope, not freaking out." i'm actually excited. the — the — i think the nerves in the stomach was not of anxiety, it was of excitement. we are overall comfortable, here in the sub. we've got the scrubber on, oxygen is flowing. and we are standing by for vacuum. in the last 35 years, i did 37 dives to the titanic. each expedition, you can see more and more. here, for example, the deck of the ship collapsed on each

other and step by step they disappeared, and we can see through the deck. of course, the deterioration is bad, but at the same time, the wreck is like a sanctuary for the marine life. we're just in limbo now. just at the beginning of the roller—coaster. we're just in limbo now. just at the beginning of the roller—coaster. no turning back now. it is always interesting to get on the outside of the sub. you spend most of the time diving on the inside the sub, so it is a different tempo out here, different things happening. if we have a contaminated atmosphere here, we've got some smoke hoods. those are located directly belowjaden, and we'll be getting those out and put them on as needed if we have a contaminated atmosphere. if you smell anything

in the sub, weird, let me know immediately. no two launches or recoveries are the same. there is always something different. and that's the problem — there's so much that can go wrong. it feels just like a ride at disneyland. this is part of the experience. you know, blake is a super—solid diver. i don't worry about him one bit. and communication — he'll get you all communicating. should i worry about you? i haven't had another bad recovery. i worry about him when he is not in the water. i worry about him when he's breathing surface air. i'm sure — not only i but the other people with me — will have mixed emotions when we go down. you're bound to have mixed emotions. i'd say quite strongly so.

it is in irish folklore, for want of a better word, you know, it was built in ireland, it was the biggest ship in the world, it was incredible and it was its maiden voyage. i mean, it perished on its maiden voyage, effectively. you know, so it's — it's, yeah, very poignant. you've got to think of those people. there were a lot of people — irish, english, from all over the world — and, you know, it's sad, there's no doubt that it's tinged with sadness. all stations are reporting the dive is a go. please, stand by.

soft music plays.

even if it's just the debris field, i'll be very happy i — to be honest, i'm so... ijust need to get there. even if it's just the debris field, i'll be very happy with just paying my respects in the debris field. for about 2.5 hours, we see nothing but darkness and then all of a sudden, you see the earth come up to you and it does feel like it is coming up to you, because you're descending so quickly. seeing the natural bottom of the ocean come up at you was sort of spectacular. we saw plates. a plate just came out —

a big dinner plate, just sitting there on its own. then we saw a wash hand basin with the taps still attached. and we were only about 300 metres, apparently, from the wreck. is something going on with my thrusters? um, i'm thrusting and nothing's happening. i don't know what's going on. one is thrusting forward, one of the thrusters is thrusting backwards right now. so, the only thing i can do right now is a 360. we're literally 300 metres from titanic and although we are in the debris field, we can't go anywhere but go in circles. oh, my god...

good morning. welcome to breakfast with victoria fritz and rachel burden. our headlines today: tributes and services for the victims of the petrol station explosion in county donegal which killed ten people and left eight injured. it is truly a shocking, tragic event that has brought an incredible toll on this community. vladimir putin calls for tighter security around the only bridge connecting crimea to russia after it was severely damaged in an explosion. a rare glimpse of the british operation to supply arms to ukraine: the mod says it's providing vehicles, anti—tank missiles and ammunition. good morning. there's just no stopping manchester city. they've gone top of the premier

but the more time passed, the less chance there was of finding anyone alive. all of the ten people who were killed from the local area. it's thought most of them were in the garage shop or the flat above it when the explosion happened. the leader of the irish governments came to the village last night. he met firefighters, police and paramedics and offered his condolences to bereaved families. words on their own may not console someone who has lost a loved one and i think wejust have to be with them. our thoughts and our prayers are with you, and will be with you for quite some time. as dusk was beginning to fall, the emergency services finished their operation. they said they were sure that every person who'd been missing had been accounted for. creeslough is a small community of about 400 residents, meaning almost everyone would've known people who died in the explosion.

there were special church vigils yesterday. more services of remembrance will be held this morning. county donegal is usually regarded as a scenic haven, a place which visitors love to enjoy. people who live here are finding it unspeakably difficult to take in the suddenness and scale of this tragedy. chris page, bbc news, creeslough. our reporter charlotte gallagher is in creeslough for us this morning. charlotte, what more can you tell us about the vigil? the impact is almost unthinkable, i think, it's hard to sum up how people are feeling. shocked, horrified, upset. ispoke people are feeling. shocked, horrified, upset. i spoke to one person this morning and he said it's notjust the village and shock, it's the whole island in shock, and

that's really the sense you get here. people arejust that's really the sense you get here. people are just an automatic by what happened. these are people, these victims going to a petrol station on a friday afternoon, perhaps buying a packet of crisps or a newspaper and this has killed them. this is a village, as chris said, of 400 people so everybody here inaudible has been affected by this and i think the scars of what has happened here will live on for a very, very long time. such an enormous thing happens in a close—knit community, it takes generations for people to get over what has happened. today, we're going to see more church services in the village and are expecting crowds notjust the village and are expecting crowds not just opeople from the village and are expecting crowds notjust opeople from the village but people in other areas inaudible support the people suffering here and that's one of the things we have seen here, the community is coming together despite such an awful thing happening. there is a coffee shop just opposite where i am standing, the coffee pod, and it was open for

zaporizhzhia saying that 49 people have been taken to hospital and 12 killed as a result of the attack which happened at two in the morning local time where people were sleeping and it hit a block of flats because you can see from the picture is a section of the blocks completely collapsed as a result of the attack. the governor said 12 missiles had been fired at zaporizhzhia overnight. this is a city that is relatively close to the frontline in the south of the country, it's become a frequent target by russian forces there and this happensjust target by russian forces there and this happens just hours after the explosion that hit the crimea bridge, the key link between occupied crimea and russia. at this hour, russian divers are expecting and assessing the damage that has been caused to the structure of the bridge as a result of the blast and president putin has ordered a full investigation and ukrainian officials have welcomed the blast but have not publicly acknowledged any involvement in the explosion. i5

any involvement in the explosion. is there a sense that these two incidents are linked in any way? well, i think that was the fear yesterday, that the russians could retaliate, could launch an attack in response to this attack. i think there are some voices in russia calling for some kind of response so it's definitely the fear and zaporizhzhia has been attacked a number of times in recent weeks, again because it is very close to the front lines, to those russian—occupied territories, and i think it's important to keep in mind the symbolism of the bridge so it's very important for putin personally, built in 2018 and was open in 2018 as a symbol of russia's occupation of crimea and the ukrainians have been saying all along they want to recapture crimea and they see this bridge as a legitimate target for them and the military.— bridge as a legitimate target for them and the military. thank you, hu:o. deputy first minister of scotland john swinney is expected to tell snp members today that calls for more nuclear energy in scotland

are to "make up for the failure of energy policy in the united "kingdom". our political correspondent david wallace is at the party conference in aberdeen for us. david, what more isjohn swinney expected to say? well, the deputy first minister of scotland will be taking the stage here at the conference this afternoon and will restate his party's long—held opposition to the idea of no nuclear power stations being built in scotland. another area of clash with the uk government, this trust would like to see new nuclear plants springing up across the uk butjohn swinney will argue that scotland's future is in its renewable potential and he will be critical of uk government policy in this area over the years. i think there are a few themes emerging from this snp conference so far. we have heard speaker after speaker get up and speak about recent economic turmoil and point the finger of

blame squarely at the uk government but arguing that this sort of economic turmoil is symptomatic of being part of the uk and that the only way for scotland to secure economic security is to go independent. also interestingly, a lot of time spent at the conference talking about the labour party. we know that polls suggest the labour party are doing quite well at a uk level at the moment but we've heard criticism levelled at them with suggestions there is no difference for scots whether it's conservative or labour in power at westminster but i think there would be plenty of scots who disagree with that assessment. interesting however to see the criticism going towards the labour party. of course, a resurgence labour party could be problematic for the snp in scotland but important to stress polls and scotland suggest one party remains dominant here and it's the snp. david, thank you. at least three people are reported to have been shot dead by security forces during the latest protests in iran. demonstrations have been ongoing for the last four weeks against the country's

hardline islamic rulers. our middle east correspondent anna foster is on the iranian border in iraqi kurdistan this morning. this is ongoing, isn't it? this problem is not going away for iran and the regime. tare of 7 h 7 7: w many of many cities we really in really zea— jr: 7 in really 222 22 7 the generation in�*iflio are protest prt coming 22 as a” ”w--. w, prt coming out 2222 22 222 2222222 222 pri coming out of 22 22 222 2222222 222 pri coming out of iran2 222 2222222 222 on pri coming out of iran2 222 2222222 222 on social>ming out of "an. as- am--- -,, on social)ming out of ito 2 222 2222222 222 on social)ming out of ito be22 2222222 222 mainly on social media, it has to be said, it's extremely difficult or impossible for international journalists to work inside the country we saw pictures country but we saw pictures yesterday of a man shot dead in his car seemingly by security forces. i was told by iranian journalist last night areas of the town at under the control of the protesters who are

outside the control of the regime. this shows no sign of going away. it has to be said in iran, we do see protest like this on a large scale may be every decade or so. we have the green movement, the student protest but the question is where it goes now, whether the regime can bring it under control or whether or not we will reach a tipping point which means that the islamic republic itself may be in trouble. at the moment, it's too early to tell but remember that iran holds such influence in the region, not just in its own country in places like yemen, lebanon, iraq, so what happens there is vitally important to the security and stability of this entire middle east region. anna, briefly, how easy is it for you as a woman, a western woman, to be reporting on this? i realise you are not in iran, you are on the border, but are you finding any in reporting this? it is border, but are you finding any in reporting this?— reporting this? it is incredibly difficult to —

our correspondent, duncan kennedy, reports from raf brize norton, in oxfordshire. these are just some of the weapons that britain is sending to ukraine. it is the first time since the start of the war the media have been allowed to film the operation. irate allowed to film the operation. we stand allowed to film the operation. 2 stand absolutely united with ukraine in defence and of freedom and democracy and the nations right to democracy. irate democracy and the nations right to democracy-— democracy and the nations right to democra .~ , ., .. democracy. we take off but not told where we are _ democracy. we take off but not told where we are going _ democracy. we take off but not told where we are going to _ democracy. we take off but not told where we are going to protect i democracy. we take off but not told where we are going to protect the i where we are going to protect the safety of the crews who fly the machines. some of these boxes are holding brimstone missiles. britain is now sent more than 10,000 anti—tank weapons to ukraine. it is dark when we land and the operation to offload does not take long. this pain alone has brought 12 tons of weapons. these missions are so sensitive, we have been asked not to say where we have landed or even

what country we are in. what i can say is that we are somewhere in eastern europe. we are on the ground for less than two hours. the doors are shut. and we head back to the uk. there will be many more flights like this to come. duncan kennedy, bbc news. former british army lieutenant colonel and defence expert glen grantjoins us now from riga. first of all, talking about those pictures there, seeing those shipments of military support going to ukraine, what you read into that in terms of british support for the ukrainian forces at the moment? the british ukrainian forces at the moment? ii2 british support has been solid and actually wonderful. since even before the major part of the war started, in february. we are probably the second—largest provider, in terms of cash, overall,

for ukraine. it is really important that this keeps going because this war will not stop in a hurry. the british equipment is absolutely vital and important to the war effort. �* , ., , effort. are they getting what they need from their— effort. are they getting what they need from their international i effort. are they getting what they l need from their international allies at the moment, particularly as the dynamics of the war change with yellow they are getting a lot of the weapons, not necessarily enough. they are still in it very artillery poor compared to the russian side. they have many more guns and much more ammunition then our side. also, it is strange because there are lots and lots of small things that are vitally important, like hand—held radios, drones, coming up, winter clothing. even generators for providing power because you cannot do anything without power nowadays. lots of small things that are not getting through when those are being

internalfighting, inside russia internal fighting, inside russia between internalfighting, inside russia between the security services and the army. and that is quite a high probability for this attack. because this is beyond _ probability for this attack. because this is beyond the _ probability for this attack. because this is beyond the range _ probability for this attack. because this is beyond the range of i probability for this attack. because this is beyond the range of any i this is beyond the range of any ukrainian missile, isn't it? hello long way beyond, long way beyond. they keep asking america for attack mechanisms so they can attack the bridge but the long—range missiles have not been forthcoming yet. if it was ukraine, then some sort of kindest iron operation would have to be done because they cannot do it any other way. in be done because they cannot do it any other way-— any other way. in terms of the momentum — any other way. in terms of the momentum behind _ any other way. in terms of the momentum behind the i any other way. in terms of the i momentum behind the ukrainian any other way. in terms of the - momentum behind the ukrainian push into russian held territory at the moment, and then we have had the partial mobilisation in russia as well, there has been a change at the top for the man in charge of the whole operation in russia. what you know about the new general there

and some patients are giving up their gym memberships because they do not have the money and their rationing medications because they cannot afford the prescription charges for some really practical support for that. one is you can do a payment charge for that and speak to your pharmacist. there may be ways we can look at tailoring your medications to give you more of that to your gp. please do not ration your medicine and put your health at risk. always speak to your pharmacist. we can always discuss cost—effective measures.

elsewhere, there were wins for hibs and ross county, as well as bottom of the league dundee united, who recorded their first win of the season in a 4—0 win against aberdeen. formula i drivers have been expressing their concern over safety at this morning's japanese grand prix after an incident involving pierre gasly in the opening laps. the race is currently suspended because of bad weather. it has started on time at suzuka in heavy rain but a couple of drivers spun and carlos sainz crashed out. the safety car came out and a recovery vehicle came on to the track while gasly was passing. you may remember back in 2014, jules bianchi collided with a recovery vehicle at suzuka and later died from his injuries. formula i hasn't released gasly�*s radio message, but it's on social media, with the french driver saying,

"what is this tractor on the track? "this is unacceptable. "can't believe this." we will follow that story as it develops here on bbc breakfast, the race still currently suspended with max schuppan contractor wind —— verstappen on track win the drivers championship. i can tell you in the women's rugby world cup, it is under way between scotland and wales and i will look over here because six minutes to go, whales are leading 15-10. minutes to go, whales are leading 15—10. wells were given professional contracts earlier this year. —— wales. they started strong with forward alisha butchers scoring the opening try scotland hit back not long after, with lana skeldon before wales started to control things. wales have a player in the sin bin at the moment, they are leading 15-10 at the moment, they are leading 15—10 and a crucial game for these teams in the rugby world cup because

they are in a pool with new zealand and australia and could potentially go through as a third place team in that group if they were to win there. let's go to domestic rugby. there was a first away win for gloucester since january — they beat rivals bath in rugby union's premiership. the west country derby was a tense affair with matias alemanno scoring two tries in the 21—17 win as bath suffered a fifth straight defeat. sale went top with victory over champions leicester in the other fixture. cardiff were winners at scarlets in a welsh derby in the united rugby championship. tomos williams�* try proving to be the difference as they won 16—10. scarlets remain winless this season. and cycling history was made last night — filippo ganna smashed the prestigious hour record. it's been held by the likes of eddy merckx, chris boardman and bradley wiggins and ganna, who rides for the british ineos grenadiers team, rode further than any human has ever done in an hour.

we will start see wet and also really windy weather move in. before that arrives, it's chilly out there with england and wales and particular. these spots on the south of england have temperatures only just notches above freezing, a frost on the graft and mist and fog, different though towards the west of scotland, northern ireland much milder because the breeze is starting to pick up ahead of this area of cloud, and it will bring the changes compared with yesterday, wrapped around a deep area of low pressure in iceland and here you can see about a metre's worth of snow falling in the space of a day, read warnings out from the iceland met service. for us, rain and strong winds, pushing and across western scotland, northern ireland as we go through the morning with one or two isolated spots ahead of it but a bright start for the most part. cloud increasing to the north and west of england and across well through the day but midlands southern and eastern parts of england staying dry and reasonably sunny, even if it starts to turn a

little bit hazy later. winds from the south, pleasantly warm in the sunshine. 18 or 19 for the south—east corner. fresher the winds and rain further north and west. they will reach gale force is not severe gal for slater across the highlands and the islands and windy the area of rain as it leaves scotland and northern ireland through the afternoon and evening and the first part of the night northern parts of england well is particularly wet, second—half loss of south west england the midlands and towards lincolnshire. should stay dry until late on across east anglia and the south—east, milder in the south, julia start in the north but brighter with a mixture of sunshine and showers. the commute for tomorrow, sunshine and showers. the commute fortomorrow, east sunshine and showers. the commute for tomorrow, east anglia the south—east the channel islands outbreaks of rain and drizzle, it clears, sunshine comes out for the rest of the day and in fact many a pleasant afternoon with the sunshine out in one or two showers dotted around in the north and the west of the country. it will feel a little fresher. with the fresh air in place, we're back to another cold night monday into tuesday, especially for and wales, these

other city centre temperatures, could be a touch of frost to tuesday across some rural areas. but tuesday will be another day of dominantly dry weather, best of the sunshine in the morning, clouding over into the afternoon, especially over the west, some showers later on western scotland, northern ireland. 13—16 are the highs, a little bit down on what we've seen through this weekend. through the rest of the week, it looks like we will see some initial weather fronts we can as we cross through midweek, but then deeper areas of low pressure means more in the way of wet and windy weather to see the week out so to give you a quick flavour, here you go. towns and city forecaster each of the four nations, the greater chance of rain even in the south where there will be huge amounts of rain once again this week.— rain once again this week. thank ou. planning for the best party ever in liverpool is under way as organisers promise the city will be covered in sequins and glitter to deliver next year's eurovision song contest.

the home of the beatles was chosen ahead of glasgow, to host the 2023 competition on behalf of this year's winner ukraine. let's take a look at the moment they found out. the city that will host the 67th eurovision song contest in 2023 is... liveable. congratulations! cheering and applause. someone who knows the city very well is liverpudlian musician and brother of a beatle mike 'mcgear�* mccartney, whojoins us now. here on the sofa with us. how are you? are you a happy man? i here on the sofa with us. how are you? are you a happy man?- here on the sofa with us. how are you? are you a happy man? i am! but eiuall you? are you a happy man? i am! but equally happiness — you? are you a happy man? i am! but equally happiness is _ you? are you a happy man? i am! but equally happiness is lovely _ you? are you a happy man? i am! but equally happiness is lovely and - equally happiness is lovely and liverpool obviously should have got it because we are the centre of the universe, as you all know.

it illegally annexed in the last week, and as the ukrainian army fights back and regains some of it stolen territory, the huge damage to donetsk and kherson are being revealed. many ukrainians have been saddened by the destruction of buildings and the loss of culture and history that comes with that. since the start of the war unesco says almost 200 historic sites have been damaged. but what can't be saved physically can be saved virtually. over the years, we have looked at different ways of preserving buildings digitally and now, that technology is being used for a very urgent task. is alistair keane has been finding out. across ukraine, hundreds of buildings have stood for years as important cultural sites. but through the war, many have gone from this, to this. their architectural wonders

becoming piles of rubble. every day, they destroy something really important in terms of cultural heritage. for example, yesterday in my native kharkiv, there were shellings and today as well. there were shellings of the central area of the city and, as faras i know, some historical monuments and buildings have been damaged. and of course, it is also very important to preserve the heritage and also to tell the next generations about that. now, eugene's company is helping to get high—powered scanners and training to the right people so they can create these incredibly detailed 3—d scans. they hope it can be used at a later date to create exact replicas or in different ways in museums

to display the history that has been lost in its physical sense. some of the technology they're using is already in use here at the british museum in london. they use it to scan objects, allowing detailed replicas to be made or to help the experts to study them further. one of the scanners is the artec leo. it may be small but it is a powerful device, and has a big price tag — it costs more than 26,000 euros — but has been donated to the project for free. the device has a few sensors and a projector. projector projects a pattern the object and this pattern projector projects a pattern onto the object and this pattern is being deformed by the geometry of the object and then, using this distortion, you can reconstruct the 3—d. and then, the algorithm in real time tries to understand how to match them perfectly using the colour and geometry and then, it sticks

everything together and you get the 360—degree model of the object. can i have a shot? of course! great. so, let's see, i've hit the start button. exactly. just opening the project. just wait until it tells you ready to scan and you can scan away. great. and it is going to pick up all the little details? yes, yes. like these little flowers. exactly, exactly. what makes this scanner so good? you said it is the best. you can scan very fast and second, very precisely with a very good quality and third, that you need less than an hour to train a person to do that, so it is very easy. so that is why now, when there is no time and the war doesn't leave us a lot of time, we need, in emergency, to scan a lot of objects. that emergency needs lots of help, so another project has enlisted hundreds of people on the streets to use their smartphones by downloading an app called polycam they can capture all sorts of objects from statues to cars.

and could we do the whole building, the whole british museum? we could theoretically, but that would create massive data sets and so on. it would be far too much time consuming. maybe the staircase will go down in history. yeah, exactly. but in ukraine, they do need to scan whole buildings and generate huge amounts of data, but how much value does that actually hold? i think the key is how that data is used in the future. so, digital preservation is, i suppose, the long—term challenge. but all bits of information are useful because culture is part of our dna. culture is what makes us human. culture is precious but fragile and at times of conflict it is our duty to preserve and safeguard and promote it as far as we can. after so many months of fighting, the damage in ukraine is vast. it could be years before the true value of these scans and the information they can unlock is really known.

now, i know how bored you get when you go shopping because i have been with you. i do, yep. do you usually shop online? you'd think i would, but i can't because i need to know that my clothes fit right and feel right and they hang right, so i can't. you've hit the nail on the head, because the problem is for most of us is that when the clothes arrive, if you've looked at them on a model online, they don't tend to look the same when you put them on. yeah, i mean, who looks like a model, right? we've all got different body shapes and skin tones and hairstyles. yes, and with one in three online fashion purchases now being returned, it is costing retailers £7 billion per year, so they need a solution. and anna holligan has been to visit a company in amsterdam that hopes to use alto personalise our online shopping experiences.

on click, we've seen digital supermodels carefully crafted over many months, and we've learned why designers want them. a digital model is going to become more and more in demand as it makes much more sense to put your 3—d cloths on 3—d models. entirely digital fashion now often exists solely for social media. but the reality is physical clothing still results in about 100 million tons of waste every year, and that is mostly because of customers sending things back. but now, one start—up here in the heart of amsterdam's fashion district is hoping to change that by using digital models to help online retailers clean up their act. this is lalaland. instead of painstakingly using cgi to create one or two digital supermodels, it uses artificial intelligence that can make all kinds

of digital bodies in minutes. basically, we are going to have you configuring your own fashion model. generating these synthetic models using artificial intelligence that then consumers can relate to more, which solves a massive problem of people feeling under—represented while shopping online. the idea is a retailer can make digital models they think shoppers will want to see, choosing skin tone, size, facialfeatures and hairstyles injust a click. so that is short, curly... and then we go to body shape... yeah, which we have apple, rectangle, pear and triangle. i have always had a nightmare myself, shopping, only seeing one type of complexion model. the closer the model is to you, the better idea you will have of what the clothes will

look like in reality. so, it's notjust about colourising or making someone look dark brown to light brown, it's really trying to take all characteristics that you would have with real humans, right? south americans with bigger hips, maybe dark brown people with bigger lips. shops then add garments, picking poses and fits. first, the before, which was just the model. wow. and then after, which is a model wearing your product items. couple of minutes. that's insane! so, is this the end of the supermodel, then? you need your gigi hadids, your kendalljenners to drive traffic towards the web store. so from that point of view, brands have to stop selling the dream and start selling the reality. but making realistic models for more people to identify with is still a challenge as artificial intelligence needs data to learn from and existing sources are biased towards caucasian silhouettes.

so, how does this work? where does the data come from? the more widely available data sets are pretty affordable to purchase and license, but a lot of the more — let me see — niche sets, we had to basically organise our own photo shoots or certain hairstyles, for example. that's amazing, so that didn'tjust exist online? no, so that's like... that shows how the lack of diversity manifests itself, right? some 90,000 images go into the algorithm with techniques that boost the number of diverse outcomes. so, let's say we find 5,000 african—american models. then we can use them and transfer that style onto the 50,000 caucasian models that we have and then, that way synthesise 50,000 african—american models, asian models, all the models. so shops can essentially plug more relatable models straight

into their stores. but there could come a time where shoppers can create avatars in their exact image too. with that in mind, i made a version of myself. complete with scottish skin and...5�*2" frame. this is probably quite accurate, although i have never actually thought about it before. i think she should have a bit more on her hips. i'm not sure if that actually makes me want to buy the clothes more or less, but you do undoubtedly get a better understanding of what the clothes might really look like on you. exact measurements aside, this could have transformative potential — notjust on fashion, but beyond. that's it for the short cut of click for this week. the full length version is of course waiting for you right now on iplayer.

thanks for watching, see you soon. goodbye.

good morning. welcome to breakfast with victoria fritz and rachel burden. our headlines today... tributes and services for the victims of the petrol station explosion in county donegal which killed ten people and left eight injured. it is truly a shocking, tragic event that has brought an incredible toll on this community. the ukrainian authorities say at least 17 people have been killed in a missile attack on the southern city of zaporizhzhia. a rare glimpse of the british operation to supply arms to ukraine. the mod says it's providing vehicles, anti—tank missiles and ammunition. wales beat scotland 18—15 at the rugby world cup. alisha butchers opened the scoring

for wales in a facisnating encounter. # i fight for my meals. oh, wow! and 50—year—old music reversioned for the 21st century: we take a look at a new exhibition about the who. and whilst it'll be another fine day to the south—east of the uk today after a bit of a chilly start, further north — get ready. some pretty wet and windy weather is set to push its way in. i'll have all of the details here on breakfast. it's sunday the 9th of october. our main story. the irish prime minister has attended a vigil for victims of the explosion in county donegal which killed ten people. three children were among those who died in the blast at a petrol station in the village on friday afternoon. our ireland correspondent chris page has the details. for more than 24 hours, police and firefighters searched what was left of the petrol station,

hoping to find survivors. but the more time passed, the less chance there was of finding anyone alive. all of the ten people who were killed from the local area. it's thought most of them were in the garage shop or the flat above it when the explosion happened. the leader of the irish governments came to the village last night. he met firefighters, police and paramedics and offered his condolences to bereaved families. words on their own may not console someone who has lost a loved one and i think we just have to be with them. our thoughts and our prayers are with you, and will be with you for quite some time. as dusk was beginning to fall, the emergency services finished their operation. they said they were sure that every person who'd been missing had been accounted for. creeslough is a small community of about 400 residents, meaning almost everyone would've

known people who died in the explosion. there were special church vigils yesterday. more services of remembrance will be held this morning. county donegal is usually regarded as a scenic haven, a place which visitors love to enjoy. people who live here are finding it unspeakably difficult to take in the suddenness and scale of this tragedy. chris page, bbc news, creeslough. just devastatingly sad. we'rejoined now from creeslough byjohn o fearraig, sinn fein councillor for donegal county council. thank you so much forjoining me, john. i understand you managed to get to the village on the evening of this explosion. just explain to us what you found when you got there. well, when we first got word that

explosion had occurred at the filling station behind me, we thought it was just a petrol tanker had gone up, but the whole building just exploded. unfortunately there were people inside. there was total debris across the road, and it was all chaos and panic, and a lot of the community came to the aid to help the victims and to pull some of them from the rubble while the emergency services came on the scene, and i must commend the emergency services for doing tremendous work in the last 24—hour is. it has been harrowing on the community, and again on the emergency services in such dangerous conditions. the building was unstable, and our colleagues across the border came to assess this as well and the northern ireland fire service, which is much appreciated by the community. and again last

night we have seen people across the political divide coming together here at a mass in the local church here at a mass in the local church here which was great solidarity for the local community and area. in a village of 400 people, you would think how could this have happened in a small rural village in donegal? it could have been much worse if it occurred later in the evening, because there was a harvest rally which had 161 competitors and thousands of spectators coming, in the next village just down the road from creeslough. so again, there is a ten fatale it is, and my sympathies go out to the families. they will have difficult days ahead when they start to bury their loved ones, and it is unbelievably well thatjust ones, and it is unbelievably well that just such a ones, and it is unbelievably well thatjust such a tragedy has happened here.— thatjust such a tragedy has ha- -ened here. , . happened here. utterly devastating for this community, _ happened here. utterly devastating for this community, a _ happened here. utterly devastating for this community, a village - happened here. utterly devastating

because it is traumatising to the emergency services as well, they are only human as well. so again, the work that they have done here for the last 24 hours, and some of them have been on site for 24 hours, it is much appreciated, and it is a very, very hard job. they were going through the building, which was very unsafe at the time. it is through the building, which was very unsafe at the time.— unsafe at the time. it is going to take a very _ unsafe at the time. it is going to take a very long _ unsafe at the time. it is going to take a very long time _ unsafe at the time. it is going to take a very long time for- unsafe at the time. it is going to take a very long time for this i take a very long time for this community to understand what any kind of normal might look like. where do people go from here? lanteii. where do people go from here? well, the --eole where do people go from here? well, the people can — where do people go from here? well, the people can rally _ where do people go from here? ii the people can rally round one another. it is a strong knit community, and there is support put in place here for them. it will take weeks, months, years, for this community to get back together, but i'm quite confident that they will get together and come back strong. it is hard to believe that a small knit community like this has been

affected so much by the loss of ten people, of ten people that were from that community. john people, of ten people that were from that community-— that community. john 0 fearraig, thank ou that community. john 0 fearraig, thank you very — that community. john 0 fearraig, thank you very much _ that community. john 0 fearraig, thank you very much for - that community. john 0 fearraig, thank you very much for your - that community. john 0 fearraig, i thank you very much for your time. thank you very much. idon’t thank you very much for your time. thank you very much.— thank you very much for your time. thank you very much. now let's turn to ukraine- — the ukraine military says dozens of people have been killed or wounded in overnight shelling in the southeastern city of zaporizhzhia. meanwhile, divers will examine the damage caused by an explosion on the only road link between russia and the occupied crimean peninsula, after president putin ordered a full investigation into the blast. our correspondent hugo bachega is in kyiv. hugo, what more can you tell us? can we first talk about the explosion in zaporizhzhia and what we know happen to there? good mornini. we know happen to there? good morning- we — we know happen to there? good morning. we had _ we know happen to there? good morning. we had an _ we know happen to there? (ems morning. we had an update from the local governor in zaporizhzhia saying that at least 12 people had been killed, 40 people taken to hospital as a result of this attack. it happened at around two o'clock in the morning local time, so people were sleeping when this attack

happened. the governor said 12 missiles had been fired at zaporizhzhia, so this attack hit a residential area in this major city in the south of the country. we are seeing some pictures there showing extensive damage in this area, and an entire section of a block of flats has collapsed as a result of this attack. rescue teams are still there, and zaporizhzhia has been frequently hit in recent weeks by russian forces. it is a major city very close to the front lines in the south of the country. and this attack has been described by the ukrainian military as a cynical attack, and in the last half an hour we had an update from president zelensky, who released a statement saying that this was a merciless attack on peaceful people, and i think this will be seen as a response by russia to the explosion

on the crimea bridge yesterday, this is obviously a very symbolic bridge, it was president putin's pet project in crimea, the symbol of crimea being part of russia. russia invaded and annexed in this region in 2014, and annexed in this region in 2014, and they are saying they want to recapture this peninsular, ukraine are saying, so there is a suspicion that ukraine had involvement in the explosion yesterday. hugo that ukraine had involvement in the explosion yesterday.— explosion yesterday. hugo bachega talkin: to explosion yesterday. hugo bachega talking to us _ explosion yesterday. hugo bachega talking to us from _ explosion yesterday. hugo bachega talking to us from kyiv. _ at least three people are reported to have been shot dead by security forces during the latest protests in iran. demonstrations have been ongoing for the last four weeks against the country's hardline islamic rulers. our middle east correspondent, anna foster is on the iranian border, in iraqi kurdistan this morning. anna, what's the latest? these protests a re these protests are not going away. even for weeks on, they really are

continuing with passion and with force from those young protesters. the death of mahsa amini has really sparked something it seems, and we are seeing protests perhaps on a level with the student protests back in the late 90s, with the green movement as well, but the big movement as well, but the big movement is what happens next. these protesters are calling for real change. they want to see modernisation. they see on social media young women like them leading very different lives on other parts of the world, and what they are calling for is the overthrow of the iranian regime. we have seen these violent protest. we saw last night on a rainy and state tv hacking where during a news bulletin, the image of the supreme leader suddenly appeared on a screen surrounded by flames, and with a target on his forehead. so their calls for regime change a very strong, but of course this is a powerful country in a powerful leadership. they don't want to change as easily as that, and i think we come to a point now, a real

turning point, where either these protests will continue to grow and will destabilise the very regime in the future of the islamic republic will be in question, or we reach a position where further clampdowns, potentially violent, will be brought into play by the security forces. they need to try to bring this under control if they want to continue things the way that they have always been for the last 40 years or so. so the big question really is what will happen next and how this will develop. happen next and how this will develo -. �* . happen next and how this will develo-. �* . ., . develop. anna foster, on the iraq iran border. _ develop. anna foster, on the iraq iran border, thank _ develop. anna foster, on the iraq iran border, thank you. _ deputy first minister of scotland john swinney is expected to tell snp members today that calls for more nuclear energy in scotland are to "make up for the failure of energy policy in the united kingdom". our political correspondent david wallace is at the party conference in aberdeen for us. david, what more isjohn swinney expected to say? so,john so, john swinney will take to the stage later this afternoon, and the

deputy first minister of scotland will restate the snp's long—held opposition to the idea of new nuclear power plants in scotland. of course this is an area of clash with the uk government. liz truss would like to see new nuclear plants are springing up across the uk. she believes this would help with energy security. butjohn swinney will argue that scotland's future relies on its renewable energy potential, and he will be critical of uk government energy policy in recent years. i think we have got a couple of themes emerging so far from snp conference. speaker after speaker has got up on stage talking about recent economic turmoil and pointing the finger of blame squarely at the uk government, but going broader than that, arguing that that is symptomatic of being part of the uk, and if scotland wants economic security, the only way to secure thatis security, the only way to secure that is my independence. so really interesting how much time at conferences being spent talking about the labour party. remember polls recently have suggested labour is performing well across the uk, but lots of speakers at conference

saying that whether the conservatives or labour are in power at a uk level, it doesn't change the lives of scots. they would be many scots, however, who would disagree with that stance. so it is interesting to see how much criticism is being targeted at labour. a resurgent labour in scotland could be problematic for the snp. keir starmer saying he wants to improve lives in scotland and across the uk, but what is very important to stress is when you look at those polls and look at them on a scotland specific level, there is one party that remains dominant in scotland, and that is the snp. thank ou ve scotland, and that is the snp. thank you very much. _ scotland, and that is the snp. thank you very much, david. _ three cabinet ministers who were leadership rivals to liz truss have called on their fellow conservatives to unite behind the prime minister. we're joined now by our political correspondent, tony bonsignore. tony, liz truss has been pm forjust over a month and yet her allies are already rallying for support?

this doesn't look great, does it? good morning. it doesn't look great. this is a very deliberate, coordinated attempt to try to change the conversation after what was a very fractious conservative party conference. the message today is in three parts. one is about the growth plan, and the insistence that the plan, and the insistence that the plan is still the right plan. also liz truss, these cabinet ministers say, is the right person to push that plan through. they say she has been decisive, and also that she has listened when she needs to. but i think the real warning here is about labour, and the message from these cabinet ministers is, if you don't rally around liz truss, you will end “p rally around liz truss, you will end up with a labour government potentially supported by the snp. the problem for liz truss is that her problems are building, they are mounting. her poll ratings remain pretty dire across the board. she

has got a divided party, we have heard over the last week from the likes of michael gove and nadine dorries, very critical of some of the measures that liz truss is trying to push through, and that might also be a problem in terms of getting those measures through parliament. and i think that is what this is really about. mps return to westminster on tuesday, and this is a warning to them to fall into line, otherwise this could be very, very serious indeed for the conservative party. serious indeed for the conservative pa . . ~' , ., , serious indeed for the conservative pa . ., ~ , ., , . serious indeed for the conservative pa. . , . party. thank you very much, tony, in our london — party. thank you very much, tony, in our london newsroom. _ more than 1,300 people who have received football banning orders in england and wales are being told to hand their passports to the police from friday — to prevent them travelling to the world cup. the home office says violent and abusive fans will not be allowed to disrupt the tournament in qatar, which begins next month. anybody who fails to hand over their passport and attempt to travel to the tournament could face up to six months in prison and an unlimited fine. a new picture of one of the queen's favourite ponies has been released by buckingham palace,

following her appearance at the monarch's funeral. the fell pony called emma stood to the side of the long walk as the funeral cortege was driven along the approach to windsor castle. the queen had ridden the black pony for light exercise in the castle grounds over the previous 15 years. and it is 20 past eight. here's matt with a look at this morning's weather. that is a spectacular picture. is that a full moon was white a harvest moon? it is the hunters moon, and it peaks tonight, this evening at about 9:20pm. so if you do get some clear skies, get outside and have a good view. we certainly had a good view last night. tonight you will need to be in the very far south or east or the very far north—west to get that view, because we have got cloud like this heading our way, and it has already arrived in parts of the west and is set to bring some pretty wet and is set to bring some pretty wet

and windy weather south and east during the next 24 hours. this weather front extends all the way through towards iceland. it is on this forward edge of the rain moves in, we will see gale force winds pick up, but to the south and east of it, a lovely, bright start, some frost around which will clear but then some good sunny spells through much of the day. but through this morning with those strengthening winds, northern ireland turns increasingly wet, into western scotland, we could see an inch and a half of rain, rain erratically into eastern scotland through the afternoon, cumbria, isle of man and also anglesey and gwynedd. it will brighten towards the far west of scotland before the day is out, and its days are sunny to the south and east of england, temperatures here are 18 or 19 celsius in that strengthening southerly wind. but the wind is strongest with the rain band, more especially across scotland where we could see winds gust 40, 50, 60 mph, and very windy conditions on the far north through tonight. after some evening rain in northern england, north and west

wales, that rain for the night will spread towards the south—west in the midlands, lincolnshire, parts of east anglia and the south—east will stay dry until tomorrow morning's rush hour. and while the south—east will stay dry until tomorrow morning's rush hour. i'll start compared with tomorrow one or two showers. early rain across east anglia, the sunshine will be out for many it will be quite a pleasant day. it will feel a little fresh out of the sunshine in the breeze, and west of scotland, north—west wales could catch one or two showers. through monday night and into tuesday morning, temperatures southern areas will see the coldest of the conditions, these are the city centre temperatures, tuesday morning in the countryside again, there could be a little bit of frost, but it does mean a bright start to tuesday with some sunny spells, but clouding over a bit towards the west later on. most will stay dry, just a few spots of drizzle around the western isles later in the day. as for the rest of

the week, it is going to be a case of things are starting to liven up weather—wise. we see some more fronts feebly push across us, rain erratically that, but later in the week, deeperareas erratically that, but later in the week, deeper areas of low pressure will bring strong winds, and he is a selection of the town and city forecasts from each of the four nations. a little rain at times too. back to you. i think that is the best we can expect at this time of year, matt, thank you. thank you very much. rugby league's kevin sinfield has repeatedly made headlines for his heroic fundraising efforts for motor neurone disease, inspired by his friend and former leeds rhino team—mate rob burrow, who has the condition. it is incredible what he has done. in the past two years, kev has run seven marathons in seven days and in november, he ran 101 miles injust 24 hours.

hejoined lauren laverne on radio 4's desert island discs to chat about his next big challenge. alice key reports. he is widely regarded as one of the greatest players in rugby league history. he has captained england, won a golden boot and lead leeds rhinos to win three consecutive super league titles, but speaking on radio desert island desks, kevin sinfield says his greatest achievement is something much more personal. certainly proud of that finalseason, probably all the trophies i was involved in, they are special, but the nice thing, because we had the perfect ending, and there were two other players who were great friends, it allowed me to close the book on my playing career and i won't say satisfied, but content from that 11—year—old kid who decided he would love to be a rugby player for his career, to be able to live that dream,

and then be able to close the book, how it finished was incredible, and the thing they are most proud of is the friendships, that i'm most proud of. how could you not be proud of this friendship? from the moment his former team—mate rob burrow was diagnosed with motor neuron disease in 2018, he was determined to do what he could to raise awareness. for him, and what he is going through, what the family are going through, i wanted to show them that i cared, and it sounds daft that you are doing it to show someone that you care, because you should be with them, and i see him as often as i can, spend time with him but also i want to show him that i'm trying to do my best to raise awareness, i want to show him that we will continue to do our best to try to find the cure in this that slows us down, because of the terrible disease. in the past two years he has raised millions by running several marathons in seven days and last

november 101 miles injust 24 hours. but he is not stopping there. what have you got next? that's team that started out two years ago, it is still intact with a few more added on. and on the last year we were able to put two sports together, rugby league in rugby union, and bbc breakfast did a greatjob of championing three wonderful men from three different sports, and we will combine the three of them and we will run to some famous sports grounds that meant a lot to all three, so we will run seven ultra marathons in seven days starting in edinburgh and finishing at the rugby league world cup final, hopefully at half—time in the men's game. he is hoping to finish that challenge next month and show the world that he is not afraid to push himself to the limits for his friends. great pictures there.

you can listen to kevin's full chat with lauren laverne on radio 4's desert island discs at 11.15am today. it will also be available on bbc sounds. it is 8.27. the ministry of defence has, for the first time, revealed its arms supply operation to ukraine — which includes more than 10,000 anti—tank missiles and nearly three—million rounds of amunition. journalists have been invited to join a flight carrying tonnes of weapons to an undisclosed location in eastern europe to show the operation in action. our correspondent, duncan kennedy, reports from raf brize norton in oxfordshire. these are just some of the weapons britain is sending to ukraine. it's the first time since the start of the first time since the start of the war the media have been allowed to film the operation. innate the war the media have been allowed to film the operation.— to film the operation. we stand absolutely _ to film the operation. we stand absolutely united _ to film the operation. we stand absolutely united with - to film the operation. we stand absolutely united with ukraine| to film the operation. we stand. absolutely united with ukraine in defence of freedom and democracy and

he has been meeting president zelensky this week. butjust he has been meeting president zelensky this week. but just to reflect on what we have been hearing. it is evidence that ukraine is still desperately reliant on assistance from its international allies. how well—prepared do you feel ukrainian forces are for the next phase of the war?- feel ukrainian forces are for the next phase of the war? nobody knows what the next — next phase of the war? nobody knows what the next phase _ next phase of the war? nobody knows what the next phase is _ next phase of the war? nobody knows what the next phase is going - next phase of the war? nobody knows what the next phase is going to - next phase of the war? nobody knows what the next phase is going to be, i what the next phase is going to be, to be honest. but yes, without western help, i think it's fair to say ukrainians might not like to haveit say ukrainians might not like to have it rubbed in, but without the weaponry particularly that the americans and the british have been giving them, they wouldn't have been able to carry on this war nearly as successfully as they have, and so it is the weapons that keep the ukrainian army going, and keep it moving forward, and of course that creates a real anger in russia,

attack was retaliation for what happened on the kerch bridge, we can't know, but it does feel as though russia has got to do something, if it is not to just look as though it is too weak. it is true that when there were attacks on crimea before, that nothing very much happened, no great attacks here, in kyiv, for instance. but there is a sense in which a red line has been crossed, or a line at any rate. this is what the former president medvedev who is now the deputy head of the russian security council, he said back injuly, i think, that if there were any attack on the kerch bridge, that would be a red line, and that all sorts of

major responses would result. well, he is always out in front of putin and the rest, he is always the one that starts shouting about the possible use of nuclear weapons before anybody else does. nevertheless, in russia there is a sort of expectation that russia will have to show some sort of response, otherwise it will look really as though it is on the back foot. we have a new commander, how is that appointment being interpreted in terms of how it might change russian strategy? ile terms of how it might change russian stratea ? . . terms of how it might change russian stratea ? , . ., , terms of how it might change russian stratea ? , . . , ., strategy? he is a really tough character- _ strategy? he is a really tough character. i— strategy? he is a really tough character. i first _ strategy? he is a really tough character. i first became - strategy? he is a really tough i character. i first became aware strategy? he is a really tough - character. i first became aware of him way back in 1991 during the brief upheaval and brief attempt to

overthrow mikhail gorbachev. he was the man who ordered his troops to drive through the crowds, of which i was one, in moscow around the old white house where people had gathered in support of the defence of the system. and several people were killed there. he was quite a young officer then but it showed his kind of approach. in syria, where he was in command, immense numbers of brutal incidents took place under his instructions. i think we can expect he will be pretty tough. but his predecessor seemed pretty tough and also served in syria and did bad things there. you know, it is not a question so much of an individual of

privilege of living on earth, alive and well, we do not take it for granted at all, but we had two losses before our first living child. for us, that loss came as a huge impact. i suppose although you here's a statistic, one in four people lose children, i think for us it is kind of a bit of a taboo subject, so until you go through it, you do not realise so many people are impacted. as soon as we were able to share about our loss and what had happened to us, because we were in such shock, emotional shock and physical shock, the physical aspect of that loss, yeah, not until then that everyone came forward and said, we have experienced this, a

to find the obstacles. and there are often a lot of obstacles, like tables and chairs, a—boards especially, and they move position, which is even worse because you never know when you're going to find them. but change is on the way. volunteers from the west yorkshire sight loss council are helping business owners to understand the problem. what's that one? so, this one would be... this takes away any sort of perception of sight, so itjust gives light. these special glasses are known as sim specs. they give everyone the opportunity to experience the town as a blind or partially sighted person. there's a lot of areas where you can't see and, you know, no, i don't feel safe. it takes a bit of getting used to, as we all found out. so, what's really striking, once you've tried these glasses on, is how seeing normally is such a passive thing. you do it without any conscious thought. and then once these are on, it really does take all your

concentration to walk a few steps and you suddenly feel really nervous about all the obstacles. campaigners are making progress and calderdale council says a ban on the use of a—boards is imminent. but is that enough and will businesses like it? we just need them to think outside i the box and if they can just think. about taking their signage upwards, instead of on the pavement, - it will cost initially, i but in the long term, it's going to be - better for everybody. there is a lot of street furniture here. it's certainly something i have noticed. putting the goggles on, it really made me notice about all the bollards. so i will definitely talk to colleagues about about the street furniture that we've got. how serious is this? it's notjust an inconvenience, is it? oh, no. it can stop you going out. i mean, if you know, this is going to be very difficult to walk along somewhere because there are obstacles, you just might not go out or only go out with somebody. argh, tables and chairs. so, a place to relax or a barrier to access?

in this town, people are starting to see things differently. that was nicola rees reporting. time to get a little bit more sport. busy morning. we have been talking football, formula 1, we are going to talk rugby world cup. what football, formula 1, we are going to talk rugby world cup.— football, formula 1, we are going to talk rugby world cup. what is going on in formula _ talk rugby world cup. what is going on in formula i _ talk rugby world cup. what is going on in formula 1 has _ talk rugby world cup. what is going on in formula 1 has been _ talk rugby world cup. what is going on in formula1 has been nuts i talk rugby world cup. what is going on in formula 1 has been nuts this i on in formula 1 has been nuts this morning. b. on in formula1 has been nuts this mornini. �* ., ., . , morning. a lot of incidents, reaction _ morning. a lot of incidents, reaction from _ morning. a lot of incidents, reaction from social- morning. a lot of incidents, reaction from social media, i reaction from social media, statements. so much drama at the rugby world cup this morning. yesterday england started with a big win. today it was wales and scotland meeting in a must win game. for context, they are in a difficult pool with new zealand and australia and the top two qualify automatically for the knockout stages and the game was crucial. it

was a dramatic finish. it was really exciting. in the last half an hour, i can tell you wales won the world cup opener against scotland. wales, who were given professional contracts this year, started strong with forward alisha butchers scoring the opening try. they were leading 15—5 at the break before a strong showing from scotland in the second half. megan gaffney levelling things up after sustained perssure with just a minute to go. but five minutes into injury time, joy for wales, heartbreak for scotland as keira bevan kicked this penalty to win the match. incidents elsewhere. this morning's japanese grand prix should have been all about whether max verstappen could retain his formula one drivers title, but it's turned into a row about safety after an incident that had echoes of the crash with a recovery vehicle that ended jules bianchi's life there in 2014.

the race started on time but was suspended for more than two hours after crashes on the opening lap. the red flag had been shown when pierre gasly passed a recovery vehicle on track. formula 1 hasn't released gasly�*s radio message, but it's on social media, with the french driver saying "what is this tractor on track? this is unacceptable. can't believe this." jules bianchi's father phillipe bianchi has been on social media. he said, "no respect for the life of the driver. no respect forjules' memory. incredible. " british driver lando norris has tweeted, "how has this happened? we lost a life in this situation years ago. we risk our lives, especially in conditions like this. we want to race. but this is unacceptable." reacting to that... a statement has been released by the sport's governing body the fia on the recovery

vehicle that was on track. as conditions were deteriorating, the red flag was shown before car 10 passed the location of the incident where it had been damaged the previous lap. " the race is now back under way. gasly has been summoned to the stewards for speeding under red flag conditions. max verstappen looking to win the drivers title. there was a first away win for gloucester since january, they beat rivals bath in rugby union's premiership. the west country derby was a tense affair. with matias alemanno scoring two tries in the 21—17 win, as bath suffered a fifth straight defeat. sale went top with victory over champions leicester in the other fixture. cardiff were winners

at scarlets in a welsh derby in the united rugby championship. tomos williams�* try proving to be the difference as they won 16-10. scarlets winless this season. i know everyone was talking about the gulf yesterday. still four shot lead in the final round in england and looking for her first professional tour win. keep an eye on her later. i think we will continue talking about formula 1 for the next few days. there will be a lot of fallout. now it is time to get the weather. horsham, that is where i grew up. a bit frosty this morning in horsham. more signs of autumn this week. this morning in parts of central and southern england where the frost is around. some spots

it's not everyday music fans get the chance to go back in time and relive some of their favourite bands best moments. but with a little help from virtual reality technology, that's exactly what fans of the who get the chance to do at a new exhibition in hastings. our reporter piers hopkirk went to have a look. # i can see for miles and miles...# on the day neil armstrong stepped foot on the moon, ten shillings would have bought you a front—row seat to see a moon you a front—row seat to see a moon of a different kind. on that remarkable day in history, the who were playing on hastings pier. it's the step—off point for an exhibition dedicated to the band and what was arguably the lift—off to their creative zenith. this is the sort of the emergent room. this is their early years. but then it takes the story of the who from the last time they performed in hastings

as they launched themselves into superstardom up to the creation of the album who's next. and it's that three—year period that we really tell. the exhibition combines archive film and photographs with contemporary artworks dedicated to the band. this is the chorus to the song who are you? # well, who are you? # who are you...# i have taken the aspect of the who colours. it's the red, it's the white, it's the blue. and i've programmed it in a way so therefore the content will never do the same thing twice. so you're taking down the story, you're seeing a reflection of the music, the sort of intensity, the energy that the who brings. this exhibition, though, is in many ways just a foretaste for some extraordinary and immersive new technology that could transform the way we see art and music in the future. in a neighbouring room, i get a glimpse of the world's first 3d single. grab a headset.

one of these? yep. a virtual reality take on the song baba o'riley. let's go for it. 0h, 0k. # i fight for my meals... oh, wow. # i get my back into my living...# all of the assets you see in this immersive single are real- assets, real things. everything you see is real. we've just made i a virtual version of it. as we develop it, there'll be touch, taste, smell, sound, temperature. so it's aiming to sort of really mince your head over time. pioneered here, the world of art and performance may never be the same again. piers hopkirk, bbc news, hastings. that must be absolutely amazing to disappear into that world. so cool.
