this is bbc news, broadcasting to viewers in the uk and around the world. i'm lukwesa burak with the headlines. they shout. crowds cheer in the centre of kherson as ukrainian troops arrive to liberate the city from russian occupation. meanwhile, the russian military says it has completed its withdrawal from kherson. the main bridge across the dnipro river has been destroyed. the uk economy shrank by 0.2% in the three months to the end of september. the chancellor warns of a tough road ahead. joe biden addresses delegates at the cop27 climate summit in egypt. the climate crisis is about human security, economic security, environmental security, nasa's security, and the very life of the planet.

hello and welcome to bbc news. we start with the rapidly developing situation in southern ukraine. russia has withdrawn its troops from kherson — it was the only regional capital the russians had taken. the ukrainian president, volodymyr zelensky, has hailed the capture of the city, after thousands of russian troops retreated across the dnipro river. writing on social media, mr zelenksy said "kherson is ours". ukrainian soldiers were welcomed by jubilant crowds in the city centre. residents waved the national flag and embraced troops in the main square, chanting "glory to ukraine!"

our international editor jeremy bowen is in odesa i think that'll be moving up steadily there in the hinterland of the city already. but they are being cautious because they're saying, first of all, there could be booby traps, there could be mines, and more seriously than that, now the russians have crossed the river into their new fortifications, they're still only a couple of miles away, well within artillery range. and there have been concerns raised by the spokespeople for the southern command of the ukrainian armed forces, saying that they're preparing for a big bombardment into the city from the russian controlled side. so, of course, they will not want to expose too many of their troops or indeed the civilians to that. kherson�*s residents emerged from their homes as the first ukrainian soldiers reached the main square. for them, it's the end of more

than eight months under occupation. plenty to celebrate, but they are not out of danger. russia's guns are only a few miles away across the river. as they left, russian engineers blew a section of the antonovski bridge over the dnipro. at dawn, long lines of russian troops seem to be using a temporary crossing under the main damage structure. the russian claim is that 30,000 soldiers and more than 5,000 pieces of equipment left kherson before the bridges were blown. ukrainians believe this is a major turning point in the war, that their forces have taken a big step towards victory. historic for the ukrainians because they believe, as i said there, that they have taken a giant step towards an eventual victory. zelensky�*s own assistants and spokespeople have also been saying that they will not rest until they get russians out

of all of the country, including the crimean peninsula, which russia seized in 2014. so from their perspective, that's why it's important for the russians. they are arguing that they executed a successful fighting retreat, bringing out their forces and their gear to fight another day, so very different attitudes to what happened, certainly. joining me now from washington is mark kimmitt, who served after president bush as the assistant secretary of state for political and military affairs. thank you forjoining us on it bbc news. i wonder if you could just let us know how significant this gain is for ukraine? i us know how significant this gain is for ukraine?— for ukraine? i think in terms of the morale and — for ukraine? i think in terms of the morale and the _ for ukraine? i think in terms of the morale and the psychological - for ukraine? i think in terms of the morale and the psychological value of retaking kherson which was the first capital to fall to the russians, i think it is incalculable. it will keep the wheel

and the spirit of the military forces in ukraine willing to continue the fight. militarily, it wasn't as significant as may be playing out on the news stations, what happened was the russians pulled back, quite frankly, to a better defensive position than they had in kherson, so don't think there has been a net gain by either side with the withdrawal, except that the russians are now in a better defensive position than before. better in what way? want to gain it just by retreating back to the river? —— what do they gain? the river? -- what do they gain? the ukrainians _ river? -- what do they gain? the ukrainians will _ river? —— what do they gain? the ukrainians will now river? —— what do they gain? tta: ukrainians will now be river? —— what do they gain? tt2 ukrainians will now be forced to do what we call the opposed river crossing. the bridge is down across the de niro —— the new pro, so it would be a significant fight as all river crossings are in a military operation. if the russians want to

stay and fight, they will make the ukrainians pay for that opposed river crossing. 50 ukrainians pay for that opposed river crossing.— ukrainians pay for that opposed river crossing. so what would you exaect the _ river crossing. so what would you expect the ukrainian _ river crossing. so what would you expect the ukrainian groups - river crossing. so what would you expect the ukrainian groups to i river crossing. so what would you | expect the ukrainian groups to be doing moving forward? t expect the ukrainian groups to be doing moving forward?— expect the ukrainian groups to be doing moving forward? i think the most important _ doing moving forward? i think the most important thing _ doing moving forward? i think the most important thing is _ doing moving forward? i think the most important thing is to - doing moving forward? i think the most important thing is to look i doing moving forward? i think the| most important thing is to look six months into the future. we have a tough winter coming ahead of us, and a spring, fall, head of them, it could well be that both russians and the ukrainians settle into somewhat trench warfare until the next phase comes, but during that time period, it is clear that the pressure will continue that make the russians will continue that make the russians will continue their air campaign, continue that make the russians will continue theirair campaign, and continue their air campaign, and recommend continue theirair campaign, and recommend that the ukrainians recommend that the ukrainians recommend their —— carry on their military artillery campaign, the statistical and logistical supply dealers of the russians, said while there may not be a lot of ground fighting during the winter, there is an opportunity to knock at each other�*s are critical centres of gravity in case of the russians,

thatis gravity in case of the russians, that is trying to protect their own supply depots from the artillery being fired by the ukrainians. taste being fired by the ukrainians. we have any idea who has the advantage when it comes to the stocks of weaponry? tt when it comes to the stocks of weaponry?— when it comes to the stocks of weaon ? ,. . ., , weaponry? it is clear that in terms of qualitative _ weaponry? it is clear that in terms of qualitative edge, _ weaponry? it is clear that in terms of qualitative edge, it _ weaponry? it is clear that in terms of qualitative edge, it is _ weaponry? it is clear that in terms of qualitative edge, it is on the - of qualitative edge, it is on the side of the ukrainians, the russians do not have the guided missile is the ukrainians do, being fired out of the high—rise buildings, the javelin system alone has destroyed the russian tank fleet and made the tank completely ineffective this battlefield. what i would say is that the russians have what they have always had, maths and plenty of ammunition. if you take a look at the americans right now, they are out trying to get ammunition from countries such as south korea, so i think right now, for dumb bombs and

dumb artillery, the russians have the advantage. but in terms of the skill and bravery and the tactics i think the ukrainians have the advantage. think the ukrainians have the advantage-— think the ukrainians have the advantaae. , . ., ~ advantage. general market committee, thank ou advantage. general market committee, thank you very — advantage. general market committee, thank you very much, _ advantage. general market committee, thank you very much, we _ advantage. general market committee, thank you very much, we will _ advantage. general market committee, thank you very much, we will end - advantage. general market committee, thank you very much, we will end it - thank you very much, we will end it there. the uk economy shrank over the uk summer, with what many believe to be the start of the recession. it fell by 0.2%, betweenjuly and september as households and businesses were hit by soaring prices, higher energy bills and rising interest rates. our economics editor has more. in walsall, this company makes the electrics that connect the electrics in cars and trains, so they are both under pressure of government and public spending, as well as the rise in a cost of materials. this business _ in a cost of materials. this business is _ in a cost of materials. this business is a _ in a cost of materials. tt 3 business is a labour—intensive of course, the wage rises, the material

content here, as a business is insignificant. we recognise we have to pedal faster to stand still. as a team, there is exactly what we are doing. there are certain elements within our control, so some of those input costs, the efficiencies, we work hard at it. even before significant cuts is expected next week of the rises in tax as well, a recession looms over the uk. this fall of 0-2% _ recession looms over the uk. this fall of 0.2% means _ recession looms over the uk. this fall of 0.2% means that the uk was the only economy to fall of the many g7 economies. questions will only grow if this is the start of a prolonged period of decline, but more turning as if you take this black all the way to just before the pandemic, the uk can be overall is smaller than what it was at the end of 2019. -- smaller than what it was at the end of 2019. —— take it back. at the start of the government, as brexit was occurring, as that is. this is a unique across the g7. the other economies are bigger, having faced

bigger global challenges, having faced the pandemic and the energy crisis in europe, which raises questions of if the brexit and worker policies have made... the government still argues that everyone is being hit the same. are you alarmed by the fact that the uk is of the g7, is the only economy thatis is of the g7, is the only economy that is shrinking at the moment? according to the international monetary fund, around one third of the world's economy is in recession this year or will be in recession next year. that is principally but not entirely because of very high global energy prices. we not entirely because of very high global energy prices.— not entirely because of very high global energy prices. we can't carry on like this- — global energy prices. we can't carry on like this. with _ global energy prices. we can't carry on like this. with growth _ global energy prices. we can't carry on like this. with growth lower - global energy prices. we can't carryj on like this. with growth lower than our competitors, with no plan to boost _ our competitors, with no plan to boost our — our competitors, with no plan to boost our economy and get the good quality— boost our economy and get the good qualityjobs throughout the country, the conservatives need to do two things _ the conservatives need to do two things. stabilise the economy and have a _ things. stabilise the economy and have a plan for growth. as things. stabilise the economy and have a plan for growth.— things. stabilise the economy and have a plan for growth. as yet, not onl do have a plan for growth. as yet, not only do they _ have a plan for growth. as yet, not only do they need _ have a plan for growth. as yet, not only do they need to _ have a plan for growth. as yet, not only do they need to grow - have a plan for growth. as yet, not only do they need to grow the - only do they need to grow the economy, they promised that regions across the whole of the uk would grow even more with big projects such as a new training. at the end

of the second, you will see here a three kilometre long viaducts going into a brand—new station connecting birmingham and london and its infrastructure is key for the government's plans to level up the country. it is also infrastructure that come in the past, has been at the first cut when public spending comes under the microscope. how will they swear this was notjust levelling up with their promises to focus on a growth for the whole economy? back at the factory, if they want some certainty on big government investments, there are some signs of light at the end of the tunnel within the global economy, inflation has peaked, as in supplies from china won't be interrupted by a new covid—19 waves. it will yet be a lengthyjourney through that tunnel. stay with us on bbc news... the cryptocurrency

platform ftx has gone bust.

the russian military says it has completed its withdrawal from kherson. the main bridge across the dnieper river has been destroyed. 0ur dnieper river has been destroyed. our other stop story today... crowd have been cheering at the centre of her son —— kherson as ukrainian troops arrived to liberate the city from russian occupation. we stay with the top story and ukraine cosmic president zelensky has hailed the catch of kherson after thousands of russian troops retreated across the dnieper river. kherson was the only regional capital to have been seized by russiasince vladimir putin started

the innovation in. how is the news been received back in russia? joining me now is adam robinson, from bbc monitoring. for their audiences... how has this been reported, adam, nice to see you? thank you for having me. they are trying to put as positive a spin as possible as they can, considering the circumstances, but they are basically trying to reject suggestions that this was a celtic withdrawal, that this was a defeat, they are trying to portray this as a deliberate, move that has been successfully completed. and that there have been at no losses. the other line is very much if this is all a nato fighting us, this is not just ukraine, we are fighting an entire block and we went expecting this. the other line has been to sort of separates it in a way, from political leadership, so putin is

known to be seen, he has not commented on kherson at all, since it was announced, the withdrawal, two days ago, so that has been very much how they are approaching this, approaching damage, damage limitation exercise come in a way. t limitation exercise come in a way. i just want to take a step back, if i could, why report on it in the first place? they notjust have ignored it? i place? they not 'ust have ignored it? ., �* 4' place? they not 'ust have ignored it? ., �* ~ ., place? they not 'ust have ignored it? ~ ., it? i don't think that was possible in the modern _ it? i don't think that was possible in the modern world, _ it? i don't think that was possible in the modern world, any - it? i don't think that was possible in the modern world, any more, i it? i don't think that was possible - in the modern world, any more, maybe in the modern world, any more, maybe in china with the great firewall that they have, but the russian authorities kind of acceptably has to let things through. the aim that they have is to control the message as it comes in, to kind of inoculate russians against an outsider view of events. the report events, but they sometimes slightly twisted them, pick things that are better for them, but they make sure they get their interpretation across and that thatis their interpretation across and that that is how russians see the world.

is that accepted, whatever the government is saying? do russians accept that that is, as it is? it is not just a accept that that is, as it is? it is notjust a defeat in any way, certainly a lot of the analysis is saying that the russian position is actually a strong defensive position that they have now taken across from a strong defensive position that they have now taken across from the dnieper river? yes, one of the lines is that they will be back in a kherson, we have saved our troops, they say, we have reserved our fighting force and adopted a better fighting reserved our fighting force and adopted a betterfighting position. it is not quite clear whether it is working this time. generally the senseis working this time. generally the sense is that russian tv messages that are accepted by the russian population, but this time judging by what we have seen a social media, it is that people are quite angry. it seems that this is a real challenge to russians feeling that they have one of the world's most powerful military armies. as well as may be that sense of superiority over ukraine, that the ukrainians are younger, less well developed as a

brother, to be beaten by a ukrainian army, for them, it is seeming to be army, for them, it is seeming to be a real shock. army, for them, it is seeming to be a real shock-— a real shock. yes, we will be back, the are a real shock. yes, we will be back, they are saying. — a real shock. yes, we will be back, they are saying, but _ a real shock. yes, we will be back, they are saying, but obviously - a real shock. yes, we will be back, they are saying, but obviously with more russian lives. how are russian families dealing with that call up? are they accepting it or is there still some resistance?— are they accepting it or is there still some resistance? there is some resistance here _ still some resistance? there is some resistance here and _ still some resistance? there is some resistance here and there, _ still some resistance? there is some resistance here and there, there - still some resistance? there is some resistance here and there, there is i resistance here and there, there is news of relatives of people who have been caught up, complaining of the conditions, they are not really complaining so much about the fact they have called up, they are complaining about the conditions and the lack of training. it is the system they are criticising, the military... the way the military is treating their sons and brothers, rather than the fact they are being called out. i think the kremlin has targeted that, in regions that are less developed, less likely to be awkward, for calling the bluff of those that will not want to be called up, so targeting areas that

are more accepting. at the moment, we haven't seen a massive backlash against the call up yet.— against the call up yet. adam robinson _ against the call up yet. adam robinson from _ against the call up yet. adam robinson from bbc _ against the call up yet. adam i robinson from bbc monitoring, against the call up yet. adam robinson from bbc monitoring, thank you very much. we head to egypt now. let's go back to egypt now — where the cop27 climate summit is in full swing. president by them in his address a few hours ago. he said he was confident that the world with him at leading the way. —— president biden. that he could limit rises in global temperatures. he also apologised for the united states pulling out of the paris climate agreement was donald trump was president. here's more of what he said. we're proving a good climate policy is good economic policy. it's a strong foundation for a durable, resilient inclusive economic growth that is driving

progress in the private sector, driving progress around the world and the sum total of the action my administration is taking put in the united states on track to achieve our paris agreement goal of reducing admission 50 to 52% below 2005 levels by 2030. i'm sure he said he put that money is going to put where his mouth is. do you feel confident that the us is indeed going to deliver? t do you feel confident that the us is indeed going to deliver?— indeed going to deliver? i think delivery is _ indeed going to deliver? i think delivery is the _ indeed going to deliver? i think delivery is the key _ indeed going to deliver? i think delivery is the key question - indeed going to deliver? i think l delivery is the key question here. we are continually seeing politicians making pleasures, making commitments to reducing

greenhouse gas emissions. we have yet to see our concrete plans as to how they are going to do this and how they are going to do this and how they are going to do this in the quantities required, in order to meet those paris agreement goals. i would say is that biden is putting the us firmly back in the race to deliver on those paris agreement targets. and that certainly is a massive step forward. th targets. and that certainly is a massive step forward. in terms of delivery and _ massive step forward. in terms of delivery and timing, _ massive step forward. in terms of delivery and timing, how- massive step forward. in terms of delivery and timing, how we - massive step forward. in terms of delivery and timing, how we run l massive step forward. in terms of l delivery and timing, how we run out of time? to be still —— so we still have time? what is your estimation? biden was optimistic, but as a scientist, i'm less optimistic. if we look at the pledges that were made at cop—26, they are insufficient to limit global warning to 1.5 degrees which is really the target that we are looking at in order to be able to adapt in time.

those pleasures only amount to about 1.8 degrees. there has not been much delivery on those pleasures at the moment, so in myjudgment, if we can manage to limit warming to 2 degrees, we would be doing well, i don't see enough there at the moment to limit us to 1.5 degrees. if we can make some advance in cop—27, that would be an enormous achievement.— that would be an enormous achievement. what options do developing _ achievement. what options do developing nations _ achievement. what options do developing nations have - achievement. what options do developing nations have on . achievement. what options do | developing nations have on the achievement. what options do - developing nations have on the table to make developed nations pay? shat to make developed nations pay? git the moment, most of the discussions have been around developed nations are paying the developing nations to help them to reduce their emissions. of course, the developing nations of course, the developing nations are actually looking for compensation for the fact that they

are already having from the emissions that the developed nations have put out there over the past since the industrial revolution and as yet from cop—27, we have heard nothing about that. of course, the developed nations, even though they are helping the developing nations reduce their emissions, terms of what is being pledged, the dates are slipping continually for that compensation. they were looking for 100 billion by 2021, that has been put back to 2023. we have had similar pledges earlier, we had one from the president biden, today, from the president biden, today, from rishi sunak a couple of days ago, but we're still not at those targets and there was certainly lots of negotiation about that this week at cop-27. ., ~ of negotiation about that this week at cop-27. ., ~ , ., of negotiation about that this week at cop-27. ., ~ i. ., ,,., at cop-27. thank you, professor racheljames — at cop-27. thank you, professor racheljames from _ at cop-27. thank you, professor racheljames from the _ at cop-27. thank you, professor| racheljames from the university at cop-27. thank you, professor i racheljames from the university of southampton, thank you for your time.

rain. —— 1a. there has been a month's worth of rain in some locations. the rain has eased and move southwards today, but this evening and overnight, we have the band of quite patchy rain across the far north—west of england and the south of scotland, coming back into northern ireland. the rain goes back northwards again through the night. to the north of it, some cool air, chillier than last night in a northern scotland and generally speaking less mild. they could be some fog patches around is welcome on saturday morning, morning fog will be a part of the weekend forecast, with some sunny spells and we stick with a relatively mild feel. high pressure dominates across continental europe, this frontal session is still affecting the north—west of the uk but easing northwards as the day goes on. rain pulls away from northern ireland, but southern scotland becomes confined to northern scotland on the day. we should see more in the way of sunshine across many areas that we have had of late. temperatures peaking in the south at around 18,

19 degrees, not quite as mild as it has been for the likes of northern ireland. for remembrance sunday, some early morning fog, some more widespread fog at this time, eastern england, up into eastern scotland it is likely to stay quite murky too. we will see some sunshine but this frontal system brings rain into northern ireland late in the day. still miles, 1a—17. as the weather front sweeps its way through, it will leave us with something a bit cooler through the week ahead, the temperature is dropping and there will be wind and rain at times.
