was deliberately blown up. donald trump is charged over his handling of classified documents after he left the white house. russia's war on dissent — we'll take a look at how the country is cracking down on those who criticise the regime. donald trump has become the first former us president to ever face federal criminal charges. he's been indicted by thejustice department over the handling of hundreds of classified documents after he left the white house in 2021. a lawyer for mr trump confirmed he's facing seven counts including obstruction, conspiracy and the willful retention of national defence secrets. if found guilty, he potentially faces years in prison. mr trump, who's the frontrunner for the 2024 republican presidential nomination, says he's innocent.

he's due to appear at a federal court in miami on tuesday. live now to new york and cbs news correspondent astrid martinez. good to have you with us. remind us of the allegations and how serious they are. of the allegations and how serious the are. ,., ., of the allegations and how serious the are. ., . of the allegations and how serious the are. ., ~ ., they are. good afternoon. we have learnt that this _ they are. good afternoon. we have learnt that this is _ they are. good afternoon. we have learnt that this is a _ they are. good afternoon. we have learnt that this is a seven - they are. good afternoon. we have learnt that this is a seven count - learnt that this is a seven count indictment involving the retention of national defence information, conspiracy and obstruction. we are waiting to find out the rest of the charges because the indictment has not been revealed. that is expected by tuesday when mr trump is expected in a miami court. the national archives tried many times to get documents back from donald trump. his florida estate was searched and they found even more documents. this is the first time in american history that an american president is facing formal charges, he it

could lead to many years in prison. trump has always maintained his innocence and denied any charges against him. in a video he posted on social media, calling his recent indictment to doctor america and his familiar refrain that the investigation is a witch hunt. he said he planned to be in court on tuesday afternoon in miami or a grand jury had been meeting to hear evidence as recently as this week. i've been looking at reports suggesting he may use this simply as a fundraising opportunity to try to get more cash together for the presidential run. does any of this make any difference to his campaign to get back to the white house? we could to get back to the white house? - could definitely tell you it will be messy and that it has enormous political implications, potentially upending a presidential primary that trump had been dominating. we have

never seen something like this. the leading nominee of his party indicted. this is a race that the former president has said he is determined to stay in. after trump made his announcement on his social media platform, minutes later his campaign sent out a fundraising e—mail telling his followers to donate money to his election campaign. you will see in the coming days how his party response to this and how voters respond, but we may well say the frontrunner for the republican nomination sitting on various courtrooms across country in the us. he will be doing this well maintaining a campaign for president. maintaining a campaign for president-— maintaining a campaign for resident. a ., , ., , president. astonishing images if pc does. president. astonishing images if pc does- really _ president. astonishing images if pc does. really good _ president. astonishing images if pc does. really good to _ president. astonishing images if pc does. really good to have - president. astonishing images if pc does. really good to have that - does. really good to have that analysis, thank you, astrid. rising food prices have been affecting customers at the supermarket tills for months and the latest figures suggest uk food inflation

is still running at more than i9%, but as households everywhere grapple with the costs, we've been taking a look at how the uk compares to other big european countries when it comes the price of some of the basics. let's get the latest with our business correspondent emma simpson. emma, you've been crunching the numbers, how did you work this out? comparing food prices between different countries is really tricky to do. we work with the consumer data analytics firm, and they looked at 23 categories in march across germany, france, italy, the netherlands, spain and across the uk. what we focused on was comparable products, branded and own label products, then i got an average price per unit and converted it from euros into sterling. what would he find? it was a mixed bag. i have a few examples to show you.

take toilet roll. £3 80 in the uk, more expensive here than anywhere else. this was the price in italy. catch up again more expensive in the uk. this is the price in france. a different story for rice, £126, it was the cheapest in spain and the uk. you can see the price in france. frozen pizza, 1.92 in the uk. this is the price in france. i should point out that the data didn't include algae and little in the uk. there are a whole host of factors why food prices differ between countries i have been hearing from the person behind this research. the first one is the supply chain differences between the countries. some countries produce their own food, which is then processed for the local population.

if you're a net food importer, like the uk is, you pay a buyer's premium. the second thing is, of course, weather and impacts of weather on, in particular, fresh produce, vegetables, but also meat and fish and so on. you have the element of political decisions that folks make. so in terms of taxation, regulation, various kinds of price caps. and of course cuisine, what people like to buy and so on. so for all of these reasons, it's quite normal to have variations in pricing. the question is how much of those variations are explained by some of these factors and what is therefore the potential that retailers and brands have to moderate those prices, keep them as low as they potentially can profitably.

emma, you have looked at individual prices of individual staple items. if you add it all up, what does it tell you about the international comparisons? we tell you about the international comparisons?— tell you about the international comarisons? ~ . . , comparisons? we did add it all up. here is the — comparisons? we did add it all up. here is the table. _ comparisons? we did add it all up. here is the table. france _ comparisons? we did add it all up. here is the table. france came - comparisons? we did add it all up. here is the table. france came outj here is the table. france came out most expensive, as you can see. germany the cheapest. the uk somewhere in the middle. 0ne germany the cheapest. the uk somewhere in the middle. one thing that wasn't mentioned there was the retail landscape, in other words how much competition there is. it is worth pointing out that the discounters have a higher market share in germany than in france, so that could be a factor. this is just of course a snapshot, it is no means definitive. you how prices can vary and some of the host of factors between them. you can find out more details about all of this on the bbc website. . ~ details about all of this on the bbc website. ., ~ , ., .,

forget inflation, it appears deflation is now threatening china's economy. a post—covid recovery in the world's number two economy is fizzling out. people are seeing their wages cut and the cost of goods as they leave the factory, the �*producer price index', has been dropping for months because of lack of demand, and that slide is accelerating. may saw the steepest fall in producer prices in seven years at 4.6%. live now to janet mui, head of market analysis at rbc brewin dolphin. janet, lovely to see you. explain this for us. people might be think we have been facing prices going up for so long, prices coming down is not a bad thing, but it can be. 50.

not a bad thing, but it can be. so, deflation not a bad thing, but it can be. srr, deflation means not a bad thing, but it can be. so, deflation means that not a bad thing, but it can be. s513, deflation means that prices are falling over time and for china, the consumer prices are basically flat. it is in deflation, which means the prices of these industrial things are going down. ultimately, that would be reflected in the final prices that consumers see. that is the threat that china is facing. deflation is generally associated with slow demand in the economy. it generally is a symptom that the economy is not doing well. that is why inflation might not be a good thing at all. it why inflation might not be a good thing at all-— thing at all. it is all about keeping _ thing at all. it is all about keeping these _ thing at all. it is all about keeping these things - thing at all. it is all about keeping these things in l thing at all. it is all about - keeping these things in check, isn't it? if you have been facing the prices of things going up recently, you might think this is a bit of a reprieve. if they come down too quickly or too far, that is a bad sign for the economy, isn't it? that is why policymakers try to keep prices going up, albeit at a low

level. �* , , ., ., ., , level. absolutely. deflation means -rices level. absolutely. deflation means rices are level. absolutely. deflation means prices are falling, _ level. absolutely. deflation means prices are falling, so _ level. absolutely. deflation means prices are falling, so when - level. absolutely. deflation means prices are falling, so when you - level. absolutely. deflation meansl prices are falling, so when you have prices are falling, so when you have prices falling over time people will to delay the purchase purchase it because they think prices will be lower in the future. so, companies will suffer lower revenue and that could lead to lower production and eventually a cut in jobs, could lead to lower production and eventually a cut injobs, for example. if this goes on and on it creates a negative spiral. lower spending, lower prices. deflation is very dangerous because it can really get the economy into a very bad and depressing situation or it is very difficult to get growth out of it. you mentioned it is good to get prices writing modestly over time. that is absolutely true and that is why central banks 12% inflation because if you have modest inflation in the economy, your wages tend to go in line with that. people keep

spending. usually when you have inflation in line with that. people keep spending. usually when you have inflation it tends to erode the value of your debt in real terms, so people keep borrowing, they spend, they invest, and that keeps the economy growing at a healthy state. janet, thank you for that. as russia continues its war in ukraine, president putin is waging another war at home — on dissent. since russia's full—scale invasion of ukraine, thousands of russians have been prosecuted under new laws designed to stifle criticism of the country's war effort. this week one of russia's most prominent human rights campaigners has gone on trial for his stance on the war. 0leg 0rlov, who is 70, faces up to three years in jail for allegedly discrediting the russian army. the bbc�*s russia editor steve rosenberg attended the trial in moscow. arriving for his trial, one of russia's most respected human rights campaigners. 0leg 0rlov stands accused of repeatedly discrediting

the russian army through his public criticism of the war in ukraine. he faces up to three years in prison. ahead of the trial, he told me how concerned he is by the wave of repression sweeping russia. translation: by the level - of cruelty, by the length of prison terms being handed out, this is reminiscent of stalin's time. civil society is being pushed underground. partially what i fear is that it may now be completely destroyed. more examples — theatre director yevgenia berkovich wrote anti—war poems. she has been charged with justifying terrorism in one of her plays. that could mean seven years in prison. for anti—war online posts, 0lga smirnova is accused of spreading fake news about the russian army.

she faces a decade in jail. on paper, the russian constitution guarantees freedom of conscience and freedom of speech. in reality, russians who publicly criticise those in power are taking a considerable risk. the authorities here have built up quite a hefty tool box of repressive laws, which are used to punish those who criticise the government and the war in ukraine. but they are not forgotten. once a month muscovites come here to write letters and postcards to political prisoners. the event is organised by one of russia's last remaining liberal parties. in a country where collective protest is restricted, there's still pen and paper to show solidarity and support. just a few words, but they can mean so much to those behind bars. your mind starts thinking

you are alone, you might fall into depression and when they read our cards, our letters, i hope it makes them feel better. the music matches the mood, the anxiety as repression grows, but writing these is one way of showing they won't be silenced. steve rosenberg, bbc news, moscow. around the world and across the uk, this is bbc news. todayis today is not just today is notjust another day on the farm in god minster. that is thanks to a system that picks up the sounds of birds and logs them by species to build a picture of who is flying in and he is flying out.— build a picture of who is flying in and he is flying out. pretty much like having _ and he is flying out. pretty much like having a _ and he is flying out. pretty much like having a real— and he is flying out. pretty much like having a real human - and he is flying out. pretty much like having a real human here i

like having a real human here setting listening all day. if you can hear a skylark, so come back. the artificial intelligence part of it is ignorance which birds make which designs and builds an increasingly detailed database. it means the system becomes more and more capable of assessing what a picks up. a healthy wild bird population is key to a healthy farm, and it isn'tjust monitoring for the sake of it. ai is having a growing impact on how we farm and can be found everywhere from tracking trends in data collected from the movements of dairy cattle to keeping a tractor moving in a straight line. you're live with bbc news. hundreds of children caught up in the war in sudan have been rescued in a daring and dangerous evacuation, as fighting in the country continues. around 300 children and babies were successfully ta ken from the mygoma orphanage in the capital khartoum to wad madani, in the south of sudan. barbara plett usher

reports from nairobi. a dangerous journey carrying precious cargo. nearly 300 children evacuated from an orphanage in the war zone. more than half of them under the age of two. getting them out of khartoum to safety was complicated, but the convoy was given safe passage through multiple check points to the city of wad madani, 200 kilometres south of the capital. it was really heartbreaking to see all these children, some of them having mental health conditions, other health conditions, to be there in the midst of conflict. during the operation there were some activities which we heard also and these children have been there for the past six weeks. in khartoum, the babies could no longer use their beds. they had to be moved because the orphanage was caught in crossfire. they were short of food,

it was very hot, most of the staff could not make it to work. 67 children died here after the conflict began. separately, clearly marked buses had already evacuated dozens of older orphans to a different location. organised by local activists, they found refuge in the yard of a government building. 0nly enough food for one day's meals at a time. they are appealing for support. translation: we took a risk to bring these children to conditions that - are not as dangerous as the circumstances they were in. we rescued them from sudden death to a fate that i hope is much better. in the midst of this horrible war, the story the babies is a glimmer of hope. how did you feel when you heard that the convoy arrived safely? i can't describe it. for the whole team it was really...

incredibly... a huge relief, a huge, huge relief. it brought a bright ray of light to all of us in this moment were the country is really, really struggling. they are looking for foster homes in safer parts of the country. but 13 million children in sudan still need life—saving support and a ceasefire in order to get it. bangladesh is struggling through its lengthiest heatwave in half a century, with temperatures recently surging to around a0 degrees celsius. this week, thousands of schools were shut amid the searing heat, with widespread power cuts only compounding the misery for locals. authorities have been encouraging residents to stay indoors and drink water, but the heatwave has also resulted in water shortages in many places. weather officials there have warned the heat is set to continue for some time.

meanwhile, a 30 degree heatwave forecast to scorch england and wales has led to the year's first heat health alert. parts of the country are predicted to be hotter than ibiza and tenerife over the weekend as a plume of warm air moves in from the south. people are being asked to check on vulnerable friends and family. the uk health security agency says the health and social care sector could be impacted. live now to aidan mcgivern, who's a meteorologist with the met office. it is important to point out here that this is a health alert, not a weather alert, that we might be more used to. it weather alert, that we might be more used to. , , ., used to. it is the first time that the uk hsa _ used to. it is the first time that the uk hsa has _ used to. it is the first time that the uk hsa has done _ used to. it is the first time that the uk hsa has done it, - used to. it is the first time that. the uk hsa has done it, previously it was nhs england that has issued these health alerts. it is looking at vulnerable people and how they might suffer due to the heat. it is

separate from the uk met office heat warnings, which are more associated with health, yes, but also things like transport and infrastructure. quite clearly the two are linked. there are health implications of hot weather and it might not be the sort of temperatures we were reporting in bangladesh, before a country not used to such cheap it does cause problems. for used to such cheap it does cause problem-— used to such cheap it does cause roblems. ., ., problems. for many healthy people in the uk it is fine, — problems. for many healthy people in the uk it is fine, but _ problems. for many healthy people in the uk it is fine, but for— the uk it is fine, but for vulnerable people one of the most important things is the rising humidity and lack of relief at night. we have had cool nights recently but as humidity rises we are going to see much higher temperatures by day and by night and for parts of the eastern uk in particular, temperatures will really shoot up over the weekend. put this into context — shoot up over the weekend. put this into context for _ shoot up over the weekend. put this into context for us. _ shoot up over the weekend. put this into context for us. is _ shoot up over the weekend. put this into context for us. is this _ into context for us. is this anything unusual? it into context for us. is this anything unusual?- into context for us. is this anything unusual? it is not unprecedented, _ anything unusual? it is not

ou. let's turn to football now, with the build up to the champions league final in istanbul between manchester city and inter milan. much of the talk is whether city and pep guardiola can go on to complete a famous treble — emulating their neighbour manchester united, but it has a final hurdle, against experienced opponents to navigate before those dreams can become a reality. 0ur sports editor dan roan has more. this, of course, is the trophy that the abu dhabi owners of city have coveted more than any other since they bought the club some 15 years ago and pumped over £1 billion into making it one of the richest teams in the world. two years ago they had that opportunity against premier league rivals chelsea, but lost. since then they were beaten in the semifinal last season, but they managed to this time get past their spanish rivals real madrid in stunning fashion this year.

that, ithink, means that they are red hot favourites against inter milan, who can't be taken lightly. after all, they have a better pedigree in this competition — three times winners. the last time in 2010 underjose mourinho. they are strong defensively. they have struggled for consistency in the italian league, but emerged from a group that contained bayern munich and barcelona. they beat their city rivals ac milan in the champions league semifinal. they'll be super motivated, of course, but city will be favourites. this hasn't been a season without controversy, of course, for city. they face those premier league charges over alleged financial rule breaches, that they deny. but on the field it's been close to perfect for guardiola's men and they now stand on the verge of fully completing theirjourney to the very top of european club football's elite. here in a city that straddles two continents, the sense is that the game finds itself at a crossroads. victory for city raising big questions over who and how

anyone can challenge them. before we go let me show you some pictures that greta thunberg says she is facing her final demonstration while still in school. because she is graduating. she said that she although she is graduating from school she will continue to protest on fridays. she told reporters that the fight had onlyjust begun. ten years after a giant inflatable yellow duck captivated crowds in hong kong, the art installation returns to the city's victoria harbour. the twin 18—metre sculptures by dutch artist florentijn hofman are part of the rubber duck series that has made appearances in major cities since 2007. the artwork previously made headlines in hong kong for drawing huge audiences and for accidental deflations, including when it

shrank to a flat disk next to a ferry pier in 2013. 0ne onlooker described the installation as "simple happiness". before we go let me show you some pictures that have gone viral online. they are from argentina, where a 63—year old woman was taking a driving test. everything seems to be going well, driving around the test track. but then it all goes wrong, pretty quickly. she ended up mounting several kerbs before accelerating into a lamp—post and flipping the car on its side. the woman is ok. she was taken to hospital and suffered minor injures only. but i think she may need to re—sit the test! stay with us here on bbc news. hello there. the weather this weekend you'll

either love or loathe. big changes, really, compared to what we've seen over the last few days. we're going to see temperatures rise and humidity rise right across the country by day and by night. with that, though, will come the chance of maybe a little bit of welcome rain, but for some a bit too much with some severe thunderstorms possible. thunderstorms today mainly limited to this cloud which has been gathering towards the south—west, channel islands, south—west england. away from that, a day of blue skies for the vast majority. the low cloud we saw earlier willjust linger around some eastern coasts of northern england and eastern scotland, so temperatures here again in the mid—teens at the highest. away from that, a warm afternoon, especially so towards the south. temperatures here already in hampshire up to around 27 degrees later. that could set off a few isolated showers, maybe thunderstorms here drifting towards wales overnight. still continue with some in the south—west. the cloud returns across the same sort of area as it did last night and it will still be a bit on the cool side for some of you, but those humidity levels already creeping up in the south. temperatures not dropping much lower than around 13 or 1a degrees. into tomorrow the low cloud we've got to begin with will fade away quite quickly. some will linger around coasts of eastern scotland.

later we should see some isolated, but pretty intense thunderstorms break out across the midlands, southern england and wales. many, though, will stay dry and a much warmer day, if not hot day. london, up towards the north—west of england, 28 to 30 celsius possible. 26 or 27 in western scotland. with humidity levels rising, temperatures don't drop away quickly by evening either. compared to what we've seen of late, this is quite a warm evening expected on saturday. temperatures staying above 20 degrees for some. 0vernight saturday into sunday, we'll see some storms around the west pushing into scotland and northern ireland. still there first thing. across western areas, always a bit more cloud on sunday with a few more showers and thunderstorms breaking out. pretty intense where you see them with hail mixed in too. compared to recently, eastern areas probably sunniest. all will see temperatures drop a little bit, but still another humid day for the vast majority. actually, around some eastern coasts, it could feel a touch warmer. then as we go through into the start of next week, this area of high pressure, which before was out in the west, moved to scandinavia,

starts to nudge its way back towards the north of us once again. there will be more showers and thunderstorms here and there, but most of you will stay dry, sunny and pretty warm, as well. that's how it's looking. take care.

today at one — donald trump becomes the first former president of the united states to face federal criminal charges.

mr trump, who's running for the white house again,
