in central london now. no prince harry, that was expected by his side, certainly of the court room. they had said he wasn�*t coming because david sherborne, his barrister, is working his way through this fairly lengthy three hour opening statement about this part of the case. to give you a bit of background, we have had a generic case, the basic case against the mirror group, case, the basic case against the mirrorgroup, now case, the basic case against the mirror group, now we are onto specific cases, the first being prince harry. what is clear is there is no single bit of evidence that proves these newspapers breached his privacy. but what there is is an admission from mirror group newspapers in 2015 that this sort of unlawful newsgathering, gathering information did take place. unlike newspaper stories were written as a result of it. what david sherborne said was how likely was it that had happened but that prince harry wasn�*t one of the people he was targeted by the journalists? wasn�*t one of the people he was targeted by thejournalists? he wasn�*t one of the people he was targeted by the journalists? he said

he doubted some how they had forgotten the tricks of the trade when it came to prince harry. and he said that many of the same journalists we are talking about are still employed and have reached positions of seniority within the mirror group newspapers operating. more of that this afternoon, prince harry tomorrow and i think it is going to bejust harry tomorrow and i think it is going to be just as harry tomorrow and i think it is going to bejust as busy harry tomorrow and i think it is going to be just as busy here when he arrives. going to be 'ust as busy here when he arrives. . ~ going to be 'ust as busy here when he arrives. ., ~ , ., going to be 'ust as busy here when he arrives. . ~' , ., , . moscow says it�*s repelled one ukrainian attack in the donetsk region, claiming 250 troops ukrainian troops have been killed. there�*s been no comment from kyiv. a ukrainian counter—offensive has been long awaited but kyiv says it will not give advance warning of its start. this footage, unverified by the bbc, was released by the russian defence ministry. it claims to show military vehicles coming under fire, from russian forces. james waterhouse joins me from kyiv.

james, can we say this counter offensive has actually begun? i think we can say on the balance of probability, that it has. this conflict has a habit of forming a pattern. and for the past six months, we have seen wave after wave of russian attack, mainly along a front line spanning 600 miles. the gains moscow have achieved have been marginal but extremely costly. so too for ukraine. but what we have seen, as you mention, for the past few months ukraine talking up this counter offensive to take territory taken by russia, as much as nine years ago. what we have seen, we have seen an increase in the rhetoric, but we have also seen an increase in military activity. yes, increase in military activity. yes, in the case of the rhetoric, russia is saying it has repelled now, three major ukrainian attacks. clearly, at

the very least, moscow is trying to seize control of the information war. the last time we saw this where we have seen ukraine claim to make gains elsewhere on the front line, the last time we saw the words matching the military movement, we saw the liberation of cats on, the southern city, they only made you want to fall to the russians, a part of that region. it will be weeks, a couple of months before it was fully liberated. i think it will be even longer this time around. indeed, thank ou longer this time around. indeed, thank you very — longer this time around. indeed, thank you very much. _ longer this time around. indeed, thank you very much. james - thank you very much. james waterhouse live in kyiv. rishi sunak says his plan to tackle small migrant boats crossing the english channel, is starting to work but there�*s more to do. in a speech in kent he announced two more barges would be used to house asylum seekers. he said the numbers making the crossing were down by around a fifth since last year. our chief politcal correspondent, nick eardley, is at westminster. what more did the prime minister

have to say? i what more did the prime minister have to say?— what more did the prime minister havetosa ? ~ ., have to say? i think today was about the government _ have to say? i think today was about the government trying _ have to say? i think today was about the government trying to _ have to say? i think today was about the government trying to remind - the government trying to remind voters it wanted to be seen as being on top of this issue. the prime minister told us there will be those two new barges to house asylum seekers. he didn�*t tell us where they are going to be over when they will be operational, but it is designed to bring down the cost of putting people in hotels. he also told us this decision, the number of people crossing the channel was down a fifth on this time last year. but it is worth remembering, the vast majority of crossings take place in the summer months when the weather is a lot better, so there is still a big challenge on the government�*s hands. one thing that struck me about rishi sunak�*s speech, is when he was asked whether stopping the boats meant stopping all of the boats, he didn�*t say yes. he didn�*t commit to a number that would be success by the end of this year. as

i say, the prime minister is trying to remind voters he has a plan, he wants to be seen as being on top of this issue but there is still a long way to go. this issue but there is still a long way to go— this issue but there is still a long wa touo. . , . ., way to go. nick eardley, thanks for that. new figures show an average two—year fixed—rate mortgage deal, is now £35 a month more expensive, than just a few weeks ago. hundreds of deals have been pulled, as lenders reassess their offers due to the continuing high rate of inflation. it�*s predicted the bank of england may have to raise interest rates again. our business reporter, noor nanji, is here. how bad is it going to get? it is difficult to know. the expectation is for more rate rises before things start to settle down. but a lot of that depends on where inflation goes next. inflation has been proving more sticky than predicted and that has led to a number of mortgage lenders to raise their rates as well as pull deals. we saw tsp, santander and coventry building society all making changes to their mortgage deals. to give a

picture, according to money facts, the average two—year fixed on a 200,000 per mortgage is £35 a month more expensive than a few weeks ago before he got the latest inflation data. it gives you a sense of how sharp the spike has been. many on fixed—rate deals haven�*t been shielded from a lot of this pain. according to uk finance they estimate 1.5 million people will be coming off those deals this year. that is when they will face the full brunt of those rises. people will be considering all of their options, including how long they borrow for. uk finance has some data that suggest there is growing demand for mortgages of 35 years or more as people try to spread their loans out over a longer period of time. at that comes with its own set of financial risks.— four days after a deadly train crash killed 275 people in india a large number of bodies remain

in the wreckage. officials say more than a hundred victims are unidentified. preliminary reports suggest a signalling fault may have been responsible for what�*s been described as india�*s worst rail accident this century. archana shukla has the very latest. train start rolling on these tracks again two days after the crash that led to a pilot. wrecked carriages lay on the sides, a reminder of the horrific disaster. life is still on hold for those searching for their families. a massive tasks is identifying those dead. this man is here to look for six people from his village. they were all going to work in a factory. i have received one body so far, but i am still looking for the other five, body so far, but i am still looking for the otherfive, he body so far, but i am still looking for the other five, he tells me. body so far, but i am still looking for the otherfive, he tells me. he is devastated. even at this small, there is no news of her husband. i

cannot find him anywhere, she breaks down. it is busy at the morgue is, as more bodies are brought in. photographed and added to the list untilfamilies come to photographed and added to the list until families come to claim them. this is balasore station, along the railway route where the crash happened and after hours of restoration work, the train services for both goods and passengers has finally resumed. india has one of the largest railway networks in the world and railway officials and workers work day in and day out to get train service is back on track as quickly as possible. as the painful process of identification goes on, the indian government has sought to involve the country�*s top

investigative agency to expand the probe into what went wrong. the focus will now shift to what the government does to avoid any similar tragic train accident in the future and to fix accountability, because for the narendra modi government, the flagship scheme of the railway infrastructure and an election promise is to launch more high—speed trains. but does the government need to focus more on rail safety or will this lead to more questions they have to answer. thank you for that. an inquest has heard a riptide may have led to the deaths of a girl and and teenage boy off bournemouth beach. i7—year—old joe abbess and 12—year—old sunnah khan both died in hospital after the incident on wednesday. let�*s get more from our correspondent. what else did we hear today. the

telling the truth, who acted in a way that they themselves felt that they had to resign from itv and step down from a career that they loved. that is a lot to process. and it is equally hard to see the toll it has taken on their own mental health. last week in an interview with the bbc holly was one of the people phillip schofield said he had apologised to. i whatsapped her on the day i put out a statement and i said to her, um, i know you can't reply, you are probably not allowed to, but please note that i am so desperately, desperately sorry. did she reply? no. holly ended by saying that she hoped the show could now move forward. i hope that as we start this new chapter and get back to a place of warmth and magic that the show holds for all of us, we can find strength in each other.

but this morning is still likely to be making news over the coming weeks. itv has announced an external investigation and next week the broadcaster�*s chief executive will answer questions in front of a committee of mps. lizo mzimba, bbc news. our top story this afternoon. prince harry is set to give evidence at the high court this week in his case over alleged unlawful press intrusion in his private life. and still to come, a woman once branded "australia�*s worst female serial killer" has been pardoned after new evidence suggested she didn�*t kill her four children. coming up on bbc news... tunisia�*s ons jabeur moves into the quarter—finals of the french open for the first time with a straight sets victory over american bernarda pera.

"a ticking timebomb". that�*s the verdict of one leading scientist, describing the impact of ultra—processed foods like crisps, bread and breakfast cereals, on the uk�*s health. the bbc panorama programme has been investigating the issue, looking at a pair of identical twins eating highly processed, as well as all—natural foods. as esme stallard reports, the effect on their health was clear after just two weeks. so you are 160.5. lovely, step forward. amy and nancy are 24—year—old twins. so, amy and nancy, what we want to do is to look at how food processing impacts your health. they are taking part in a test with doctor sarah berry and professor tim specter from the king�*s college london. what you are going to do is for two weeks, nancy, you are going to be doing the unprocessed diet. amy, you are going to be eating the ultra—processed diet. the twins�* diet will be matched

exactly for calories, nutrients, fat, sugar and fibre. in the last decade the evidence has been slowly growing that ultra—processed food is harmful for us in ways we hadn't thought. the twins find there is one ingredient they keep seeing again and again on food packets. look, emulsifiers again, we�*ve seen it a few times, haven�*t we? yeah. the food industry uses around 60 different emulsifiers to enhance the appearance, texture and shelf life of ultra—processed foods. some are naturally occurring, others are chemically produced. it is found in an incredible number of our foods and they are potentially harmful. doctor mathilde tuvier is leading one of the world�*s biggest studies into food additives. the bbc has had exclusive access to the early results. they are yet to be verified by peer review, but she says they are concerning. we observed significant associations between emulsifier intake

and the increased risk of cancer overall and breast cancer notably. but also with cardiovascular diseases. in england, wales and northern ireland food safety is regulated by the food standards agency, the fsa. it says it is about to launch a public consultation on some emulsifiers. a spokesperson for the food and drink federation said, "food manufacturers take the health of consumers and the safety of the food they produce seriously and adhere to the strict regulations." the results of the twins�* tests are now in. amy, you were on the ultra—processed food diet. your results were really quite different to your sister�*s. they were far worse. your blood fat levels actually went up, your lipids, which are markers of heart disease, they were increased, your blood sugar was noticeably worse. you actually gained weight, nearly a kilogram, and you actually lost weight.

it's a bit scary, isn't it, - after only two weeks to see those sort of results. imagine what that would be over 20 years. after just two weeks of the test, the impact of amy�*s ultra—processed diet will be fully reversible. we already have the most obese children in europe. that means more type 2 diabetes, more cancers, more heart disease, more misery, more mental illness. this really is a future time bomb. there are now dozens of scientific studies done of the dangers of a diet high in ultra—processed food. the twins�* tests show the potential impact these foods can have on you in just two weeks. esmee stallard, bbc news. and you can watch the full panarama episode, ultra—processed food: a recipe for ill health, tonight at 8pm on bbc one. a woman described as australia�*s worst female serial killer has been

pardoned and freed from jail. new evidence suggested kathleen folbigg didn�*t kill herfour children after spending twenty years behind bars. as our sydney correspondent phil mercer reports, scientists now believe the children may have died of natural causes. kathleen folbigg was australia�*s most hated woman when she was convicted of the murder of three of her children and the manslaughter of another. they died sudden by between 1989 and 1999, aged between 19 days and 19 months. prosecutors alleged their mother had smothered each of them in a fit of rage. but new scientific evidence has suggested their deaths could have been caused by genetic disorders or mutations. not one single day has passed where kathleen folbigg didn�*t maintain her innocence, both fiercely and calmly and collectively.

there was never any actual forensic or pathological evidence to say that the children were smothered, or that she committed those crimes that she was convicted of. mrs folbigg has been pardoned and released from prison. the new south wales state attorney general michael daley says the case is tragic. we have got four little bubbas who are dead, we have got a husband and wife who... ..lost each other. a woman has spent 20 years injail. and a family that never had a chance. so, you'd not be human if you didn't feel something about that, wouldn't you? the conviction of kathleen folbigg, who is now 55, was one of australia�*s most notorious criminal cases. her exoneration highlights

a catastrophic miscarriage of justice. phil mercer, bbc news, sydney. the mother of a mental health patient, who fatally stabbed a man days after being discharged from a psychiatric unit, wants a public apology for both her son and the family of the man he killed. david fleet from borth in ceredigion, was released from a psychiatric hospital in 2019, despite warnings about his "worsening mental state". the health board says it can�*t comment on individual cases. here�*s wyre davies. david fleet was a troubled teenager. his mum says his art gave a window into inner torments. when you look at these you get an insight into, i think, what was going on in his mind. self harm and cannabis use led to the prescription of anti—psychotic medication and his sectioning under the mental health act. but after four months david was sent home,

even though his mum had warned staff he was still using cannabis and was looking for knives on home visits. in early 2019, ten days after his release, he left his borth home. a knife had gone missing. it was nowhere to be seen. david was nowhere to be seen. oh, my god, where has he gone? i looked out the back window and i could see the air ambulance and ijust remembered having this really sinking feeling, like i knew. david fleet fatally stabbed a complete stranger, 71—year—old lewis stone who was out walking his dog. fleet later said, "it was because of the voices in my head." his victim�*s family say there is no excuse or forgiveness for what david fleet did. he pleaded guilty to manslaughter due to diminished responsibility and is indefinitely detained at a secure psychiatric unit. an internal report by hywell dda health board was not publicly shared, including

with the victim�*s family. we have seen a copy of the review into david fleet�*s care. it reveals that three weeks before the stabbing a doctor had warned that he wasn�*t ready to leave hospital because of his worsening mental state and the risks he posed with knives. david fleet�*s mother wants a public apology for her son and the stone family, saying the tragedy could have been prevented. the board said findings were shared with the welsh government but couldn�*t be published because of confidential medical information. the welsh government hasn�*t commissioned independent mental health homicide reviews since 2016, meaning that lessons from fleet�*s case and others were not shared directly with other health boards. that has been criticised by one leading barrister. we learn from previous disasters how to avoid future disasters. why don�*t they want to do these reviews? i don�*t understand it, unless it�*s on the basis that they can be costly.

well, that is not a proper basis for not carrying out reviews, not commissioning reviews. it�*s a seven—year scandal. the welsh government said it was satisfied independent reviews had not been necessary for the last seven years because individual boards had thoroughly investigated their own cases, but it admitted the review system needed to change and a new one is being introduced. wyre davies, bbc news. you can hear more on that story on bbc wales investigates: how did our sons become killers? tonight at 8.30 pm on bbc one wales and iplayer now. social media scammers are conning schoolchildren out of thousands of pounds by falsely claiming they can provide access to this year�*s gcse and a—level papers. exam boards say it�*s extremely rare for tests to be leaked, but added that the scams are becoming more common. here�*s kristian johnson. the half term holidays are over and students are back sitting exams this week. but away from the exam halls scammers are targeting pupils on social media.

instagram, tiktok and snapchat accounts are among those claiming to sell leaked papers. £500 for a paper was the typical offer from multiple accounts. for one exam paper? yeah, for one exam paper. 15—year—old jade is sitting her gcses. we�*ve changed her name to protect her identity. she approached an account after seeing exams for sale on tiktok. they are everywhere. you would not run into a student in the uk who has not come into contact with these accounts. jade didn�*t buy an exam but many other students have. the papers for sale on social media are highly unlikely to be genuine, but the scams are on the rise. click on this one, 2023 exam papers. exam boards are doing what they can to shut the accounts down. we were granted exclusive access with the team at aqa. once we found one of these accounts, we will record it, pass this
