this is bbc news, the headlines... on the 25th anniversary of the good friday agreement, the british prime minister calls for power sharing to return to northern ireland. the chinese military says they have completed their tasks around taiwan after a third day of military drills. migrant charities say they're concerned for the safety of around 400 people on a boat in the mediterranean that's taking on water. and 100 days in — mixed reviews in brazil for president luiz inacio lula da silva's administration. it's 25 years since the historic good friday agreement was signed. during the troubles, people who wanted to travel across belfast had to pass

through a huge security cordon known as the ring of steel. these days, a bus service called the glider makes a relatively easy trip between the east and west of the city several times a day. we've taken thatjourney with some of northern ireland's so—called "peace generation", born after the agreement. sarah girvin reports. if the good friday agreement was the start of a journey, what's the direction of travel 25 years later? during the troubles, it wasn't possible to travel on just one bus between largely unionist east and largely nationalist west belfast. and even if it had been, not many people would have felt safe enough to do so. the free movement of today is a big change. you can see from these photographs. these are of the entity which was known as the ring of steel. this is to go shopping, this is to go to work. this is everyday civilian life. we encountered these search points and checkpoints, and this goes on for a quarter of a century. so what do our passengers

make of these images of northern ireland's past? it's insane. it's almost like a whole different country. like, it's like a different planet, almost, for my generation to never have had to experience any shootings, any bombings, or anything like that, any atrocities that comes from the troubles. you know, we're very lucky. i think the good friday agreement also kind of diminished that us—versus—them mentality that i think our parents' generations would have had. that's why i think like even like a journey like this kind of diminishes that, as well, because we're not thinking about going into each other's areas. it's scary, the fact that it was there. this place has changed. like, we can go into the town, we can do what we want. there's everything and there's no fear about it. the anniversary doesn't mean much to me. - not really, it doesn't. i know that i'm living - in a generation now of peace. i mean, i'm very grateful that- i don't have to go into belfast now and go through steel barricades.

and, you know, it's alien to me looking at some . of those photographs. it's all free moving for me now. i've actually never travelled on the glider from west to east, so it's a bit different. but i have obviously been to east belfast, but yeah, so it would still be a bit unusual. i think belfast, because of our history, is kind of divided into those four areas. so that's probably why, as well. good friday agreement is amazing, but i also know that we are maybe not where we said we would be. and you know, with not a running government, as well, just kind of shows you that we still have a lot to work out. but here, you know, we still have peace, which is a big thing. those who lived through the troubles remember how difficult travel could be. i would never have dreamt of traveling east to west or, you know, beyond my district, because maybe we just didn't have the same feelings of safety. my kids now, i am pleased to say, there's no boundaries. the glider very much, you know, it's notjust about connecting people, it's connecting communities,

and that's probably an unintended consequence in many ways. some might say it's a symbol of how things have changed. you know, that certainly wouldn't have been a done thing in the past. the mobility that people have in saying, i'm going to move to downtown belfast — something that was virtually impossible on a fluid way. that freedom of movement and freedom of association was very not part of our lives for a long period of time. we've still got peace lines. we've still segregated communities. we've still a lot of very traditional conflict—related troubles. but there are pockets where we see belfast living like a city, which you would recognise elsewhere, certainly, in europe. i do have a certain difficulty with hearing young people talking about the good friday agreement in that they don't really know anything about it. and part of me thinks that's a shame, because we should acknowledge that period. part of me also says there's a good thing there, too. maybe like everything in this place, it's complicated. well, that's certainly very true. and the people of this place are complicated.

we came from a deeply flawed and complex society. and, moving on, you know, maybe we bring complexities with us, but in a different way. and so, even after 25 years, perhaps this complicated journey is not yet at its end. sarah girvin, bbc news. the us government's urgently investigating the leaking of dozens of intelligence documents on social media. the bbc�*s seen some of the documents including detailed accounts of the training and equipment being provided to ukraine. some of the papers are labelled top secret. the bbc�*s carl nasman is in washington with more details. documents have been circulating online for several days now, but us officials clearly concerned about the impacts of them, especially when it comes to security. in the most recent statement from the pentagon, officials are saying that they're working to assess any potential impact on us security, as well as its partners and allies. they're also working to determine

the veracity of these documents. but officials do say that they believe they contain classified and highly sensitive materials. now, a criminal investigation has also been opened into this case, which is believed to be the biggest leak of classified information since edward snowden gave classified documents to journalists back in 2013. we still don't know who is behind this particular round of leaks, but us officials believe that it might have originated in the united states, just based on the breadth and depth of information contained within these documents. they have not, however, ruled out any involvement from russia or russian sympathizers. in terms of the documents themselves, there were actually two different rounds of lea ks. the first one happened back in march. this was a handful of documents, mostly pertaining to the war in ukraine. this was sensitive material containing maps and photographs and timelines.

and specifically it did mention a potential spring offensive. so there are concerns that this information could help russia to determine when any kind of counterattack by ukraine could be taking place. there are also concerns, according to the new york times, that one of these documents reveals that the air defense systems of ukraine could be running low, in terms of missiles and other elements that have been used to protect the skies and keep russian aircraft out of ukrainian airspace. that that defense system could be running low as soon as the month of may. interestingly, some of these documents also appear to have been altered to paint russia in a slightly better light, in terms of lowering the number of russian casualties and somewhat altering the number of ukrainian casualties to make those casualties appear to be higher. there was a second, much larger leak of documents on friday, around 100 different documents. and this one could potentially be embarrassing for the united states.

the documents appear to reveal that the country has been spying on some of its closest allies, south korea and israel, for example. but this is being seen as a worrying development for a us spying operation that has been remarkably efficient and remarkably effective throughout the war in ukraine. joining me now is michael clarke, the former director general of the defence and security think tank royal united services institute... thank services institute... you very much for coming on the thank you very much for coming on the programme. thank you very much for coming on the programme-— thank you very much for coming on the programme. what do you make of this leak? how _ the programme. what do you make of this leak? how damaging _ the programme. what do you make of this leak? how damaging do - the programme. what do you make of this leak? how damaging do you - the programme. what do you make of this leak? how damaging do you think it is? it this leak? how damaging do you think it is? , ., , , it is? it is undoubtedly embarrassing. - it is? it is undoubtedly embarrassing. i- it is? it is undoubtedly embarrassing. i don'tl it is? it is undoubtedly - embarrassing. i don't think it is it is? it is undoubtedly _ embarrassing. i don't think it is as damaging and unintelligent sense as people would imagine. remember, the importance of intelligence material is it lets you in advance what gets to be known by everybody in a couple of months past the time. this leak has been around since the end of

february. just gives you advance names of things. but it is undoubtedly embarrassing for the united states. it appears to be a genuinely closed it is embarrassing for the relationship with ukraine but it is really embarrassing for relationships with canada, britain, australia and new zealand because it creates a sort of kickback because states then begin to withhold information if they think it is not entirely secure. all of these things do a bit of damage to relationships. and is there any sense that you can get, i know i am asking you to speculate a little, but on any kind of motives or how this would have leaked or why?— of motives or how this would have leaked or why? purely spectator, but somebody got _ leaked or why? purely spectator, but somebody got hold _ leaked or why? purely spectator, but somebody got hold of _ leaked or why? purely spectator, but somebody got hold of documents, i somebody got hold of documents, quite a lot of them, and actually photograph them, it was notjust a sort of computer geek as such, somebody got hold of them in an old—fashioned style, photograph them and then delete them and they would leaked onto the discord gaming site.

that rather suggests that it was one or maybe two people, maybe it was ideology, maybejust element, the mentality of hackers, who put things on gaming sites to see what happens. 0r on gaming sites to see what happens. or it could have been someone a bit more sinister, putting it on a gaming site in order to disguise it in some way. but if this was a genuine russian attempt to get hold of material, and the material is valuable, they would not have made it public, they would have just used it. this material is interesting because it confirms what most of us certainly on ukraine studies new in any case, or believed in any case, so it is another bit of evidence that confirms that we know the ukrainians are training about nine or ten new brigades and they have three new brigades after that. it has given us the names of some of the brigades. it adds a little bit of detail to things that are of minor importance. but it does not take a head at all as it were the

sensitive material. we all know the ukrainians are going to launch an offensive in the spring, we don't need the pentagon to tell is that. the ukrainians have been telling us that. this is difficult for the americans because it is embarrassing. it's intelligence value is relatively low actually. interestingly, and briefly before i let you go, any chance of the authorities in the us finding out exactly what happened here? do they typically in things like this? these internal inquiries, _ typically in things like this? these internal inquiries, everyone - typically in things like this? these | internal inquiries, everyone knows who has done it but the inquiry cannot say so. i am mature that will be the case here. it is the biggest leak in a while and previous leaks have been more damaging than this will turn out to be. they will be looking for one or two people who had access to these documents, such that they could download them and photograph them and that'll narrow it down to a relatively small group of people but the number of people that have access to sensitive

material in the united states is huge. they always make it difficult for themselves by having such a big group of people that can see restricted information. michael clarke am always _ restricted information. michael clarke am always great - restricted information. michael clarke am always great to - restricted information. michael clarke am always great to get. restricted information. michael- clarke am always great to get your assessment. thank you for coming on the programme. controversial influencer andrew tate and brother tristan are questioned by romanian prosecutors while having their electronic devices searched. it's the first time the two brothers have left house arrest, where they were placed more than a week ago after being released from a three—month long detention. tate, a british—american former kickboxer with millions of online followers, along with his younger brother are under investigation for alleged human trafficking and rape. around the world and across the uk. this is bbc news.

is marking 100 days in power. he won a very tight election at the end of last year. the country remains politically divided. so how is he doing? here's the bbc�*s daniel gallas. it is quite a regular thing that we do, 100 days in power is a good point to stop and assess how administrations are doing, so what is your assessment? lula administrations are doing, so what is your assessment?— is your assessment? lula da silva has been president _ is your assessment? lula da silva has been president before - is your assessment? lula da silva has been president before and . is your assessment? lula da silva has been president before and it. is your assessment? lula da silva i has been president before and it was during a very different time of the country. a lot of optimism. brazil was a rising and emerging economy at this time, he inherited a very divided country, a broken country, fractured between left and right and also a very fragile economy as well because this is an economy that is still suffering the effects from the pandemic and it has the same cost of living crisis and high interest rates that we are seeing across many

different countries. it is by far his biggest challenge. just a few daysin his biggest challenge. just a few days in office, we saw that there were massive protests in brasilia, with crowds breaking a lot of buildings and a lot of that came from the far right, that does not accept lula as a president. that was completely different from his first time in office was in terms of the economy, hejust has time in office was in terms of the economy, he just has to get everyone behind his economic plan, which is just starting to present to the public. and that has been proven to be a challenge because he has to convince markets it is a good plan, convince markets it is a good plan, convince people inside his own government, inside his cabinet, and his party, that this is a good plan as well. but he needs to get some results quickly. very challenging daysin results quickly. very challenging days in his first 100 days in office and we arejust days in his first 100 days in office and we are just seeing the beginning of his tactics and his ideas. interesting, and daniel, it is

difficult to understate, i suppose, the difference, the change in direction from the previous administration.— direction from the previous administration. , ., ., administration. yes, one other thing that he showed _ administration. yes, one other thing that he showed that _ administration. yes, one other thing that he showed that he _ administration. yes, one other thing that he showed that he is _ administration. yes, one other thing that he showed that he is quite i that he showed that he is quite willing to changes his foreign policy. brazilwas willing to changes his foreign policy. brazil was not very active in the international stage in the past few governments, notjust in the international stage in the past few governments, not just the previous covenant, but even before that, and lula wants to regain some sort of leadership in the international arena, so tomorrow, this week, he is going to be in china, meeting with high—level meetings in china, he had his personal talk to flatmate looting a few days ago. he was received in moscow. —— president putin. 0ne few days ago. he was received in moscow. —— president putin. one of his plans is to get a group of countries that can sit together and negotiate, some sort of peace treaty with ukraine and russia and he will try to get nato countries on board as well. i got a very ambitious goals but we are just seeing the beginnings of this. it is still very

early stages of all the things that he wants to increment.— early stages of all the things that he wants to increment. daniel, thank ou for he wants to increment. daniel, thank you for that- — in france, the search continues for survivors after sunday's deadly building collapse in marseille. fire officers have worked through the night in difficult conditions — pulling two bodies from the debris overnight. it's dangerous work — as the explosion made nearby buildings structurally unsound. here's the marseille mayor. translation: on our side, the city of marseille - and the naval fire battalion, have also continued to help families, because difficult times are about to begin for some families. because, for the people who have been displaced, we also need human and dignified support, commensurate with the tragedy they are experiencing. the surrounding buildings are becoming more and more fragile, posing a major risk to our firefighters, who once again, are always rising to the occasion. so we keep going. we keep going, the smoke is still rising, as the fire is not completely extinguished.

a judge in italy is set to decide whether a key suspect in the �*qatargate' corruption scandal is to be handed over to belgium. the italian andrea cozzolino is a member of the european parliament. he's accused of taking bribes from qatar and morocco. he denies that. three other current and former meps are in prison in belgium awaiting trial for their alleged involvement in the corruption scheme, two of them deny the claims, one has confessed. jess parker reports from brussels. it was a political earthquake, an alleged corruption scandal at the heart of the european parliament. this story is a tangled web — catching lawmakers, officials and lobbyists in its net. in its immediate aftermath, eu leaders rushed to announce action. there will be no sweeping under the carpet. we will ask for more transparency on meetings with foreign actors

and those linked to them. the police investigation stretches hundreds of miles from brussels to, among other places here — the port city of salerno in southern italy, where we've spoken to the lawyer of a key suspect... andrea cozzolino, an italian member of the european parliament, suspected of acting in the interests of foreign powers, namely qatar and morocco, in exchange for money — which he denies. qatar and morocco have also hit back at the claims. belgian prosecutors want andrea cozzolino detained in brussels, but his lawyers are contesting the european arrest warrant. translation: the warrant is completely vague, i partial and sometimes even lacks transparency. if the belgian prosecutor has the proof of cozzolino's guilt, why don't they show it? the fact they don't leads us to think that cozzolino's arrest is aimed to get him injail and see if he cracks, if he confesses to a crime, even though he didn't do it.

concerns about the state of belgium's prisons have also been raised. in our opinion, in belgium, there isn't a prison that could guarantee his health rights. he suffers from heart problems. he needs intensive treatment and could risk his own life if he doesn't receive the appropriate care in a crisis. belgium's federal prosecutor's office declined to comment, but some legal experts aren't so reticent. seems to be yet another attempt at delaying, gaining time and perhaps leveraging on the health status of mr cozzolino in order to somehow tarnish or complicate further a very difficult and very silent investigation across europe. so i would say this is not very fair. news of this investigation first broke back in december last year. it was a bombshell moment. months later, the case continues to fizzle, but it's become more complicated. all the while, it's a cloud hanging over the european parliament.

this place is the eu's only directly elected institution. nevertheless, it sometimes struggles for relevance and recognition. this story's certainly got it in the headlines, but in a way it's feared is damaging to public trust. this case is playing out in the open, before a possible trial has even begun. eu discomfort is palpable, whichever way you look. jessica parker, bbc news, in brussels. buckingham palace has released new details about king charles' coronation — from the procession route, to the crownjewels that will be used. here's the latest from our royal correspondent nicholas witchell. less than four weeks now to their big day, and preparations for the coronation of king charles iii and the crowning of camilla as his queen are in full swing. first, the route that will take them from buckingham palace to westminster abbey and back again has been confirmed. from the palace down the mall to trafalgar square

and then down whitehall, around parliament square to the abbey's west door. the return route will be the same journey in reverse, a much shorterjourney than that taken by the late queen elizabeth after her coronation. the king and queen consort will travel to the coronation in one of the newest royal carriages, the diamond jubilee state coach, escorted by the household cavalry. inside westminster abbey, the service itself will see the crownjewels, the regalia, the symbols of the monarch's authority, being used for the first time since queen elizabeth was crowned. the sovereign's orb and sceptres, swords, bracelets, and spurs — all will have their part in this elaborate religious service, which culminates with the crowning of the monarch with st edward's crown. camilla will be crowned with queen mary's crown, which contains some of the cullinan diamonds. she'll also hold the queen consort�*s rod, which is made of ivory.

they will process from the abbey, just as queen elizabeth did, for the returnjourney to the palace. and for that, they will board this — the 18th century gold state coach. it weighs four tonnes, and it's notoriously uncomfortable. the king and queen may be relieved that their journey back to the palace, escorted by military detachments, will be only a quarter of the length of that undertaken by queen elizabeth in 1953. royal staff have done their best to make the gold coach as comfortable as possible. back at buckingham palace, there'll be a royal salute and, one imagines, an appearance on the palace balcony, though that hasn't been confirmed. 0ne innovation — the palace has launched a new emoji to mark the coronation. so a ceremony rooted in history with at least one modern touch. nicholas witchell, bbc news. all around the world, millions of people have been

celebrating the easter weekend. later on monday, the traditional egg—rolling event will take place at the white house in washington. but in one town in western germany, when it comes to easter eggs, they do things a little differently, as the bbc�*s tim allman explains. normally this time of year, you eat easter eggs. but not here, in the town of horhausen. instead, theyjust chuck them, as far as they possibly can. contestants of all ages take part, throwing hard—boiled chicken eggs and the rules are remarkably simple. translation: the egg must remain intact and it should _ fly as far as possible. the best thing is to hold it between your index finger and your thumb. every participant has only one go and some throws are a little less impressive than others.

the record, dating back more than 20 years, with 78 metres. mind you, it's not about winning, more the taking part. "i threw mine 55 metres", said this competitor. "i didn't apply any specific technique, ijust used three "fingers and then i threw it." they were now automatically qualifies for next year's competition because for the people of horhausen, you can't make an easter omelette without throwing some eggs. tim allman, bbc news. the new super mario bros movie has defied poor reviews to break several box office records, scoring the most successful global opening of all time, for an animated film. it is hollywood's second version of the hit nintendo game — and the film took 377 million us dollars, which is around 303 million pounds, in its first five days on release. that success comes in spite of a less—than—resounding reception from several film critics, with a particularly scathing review in the new york post,

which called it another "soulless ploy to sell merchandise". stay with us here on bbc news. hello again. it has been a pretty wet start to the day. the rain slowly clearing from the east for most of us through the course of the afternoon. it will be followed by showers. and this week is looking much more unsettled than last week. yes, there will be some sunshine, but it is going to be wetter than last week and also windier. you can see where the met office has a yellow warning out for the strength of the wind, gusting a0 to 60 mph from tuesday afternoon, tuesday night and also into wednesday. today's pollen levels, and we are talking tree pollen, are high or moderate and are going to remain like this as we go through the rest of this week. today, we also can see the back edge of that rain pushing away from the far south—east, lingering for a time across shetland, and then we have

got two distinctive areas of showers, some of those will be heavy and thundery and prolonged and blustery, as you can see these are the average wind speeds. 0n either side of them, there will be the odd shower. and a fair bit of sunshine, with highs up to about 15 degrees. not feeling as cold along the north sea coastline, as it has done in the last few days. we have lost all that cloud. through this evening and overnight, there will still be some showers around. there will be clear skies. it'll still be breezy. temperatures in some parts of the country falling away to about three degrees. a cold start to the day tomorrow. tomorrow, there will be a fair bit of sunshine around as well. still a scattering of showers across parts of scotland, but it will not be too long before the cloud gathers in the south—west and then we see rain pushing into northern ireland, wales and also the south—west of england, accompanied by strong winds. ahead of it, some sunshine, but temperatures are to about 1k degrees. the rain is coming on courtesy of this area of low pressure, which is pushing northwards and eastwards and you can see from the squeeze on the isobars,

it is going to be windy. the strongest winds in the west and south. we could even see some snow of above 400 metres in scotland and some wintry showers in the pennines, also the hills of wales and the moors. these black circles represent the strength of the gusts of wind. if you are camping, may be in a tent or a caravan, do bear that in mind. temperatures to 11 or 12 for most. then, as we head into the outlook period for the rest of the week, it remains unsettled but it looks like it is turning a bit milderfor the weekend.

all. china carries out a "mock" military blockade of taiwan as tensions rise in the south china sea. it follows days of military operations by beijing, which wants to bring the self—governing province back under its control. labour leader sir keir starmer doubles down on an advert attacking rushi sunak for being soft on sex offenders, despite criticism from within his own party. as junior doctors prepare forfour days of strike action from tomorrow, the nhs in england says it will prioritise emergency care. a carriage fit for a king, as buckingham palace reveals the coronation route to westminster abbey.
