7:03 pm
went about half an hours walk across the city where he tried to break into a homelessness hostel. we have seen cctv footage restring to break into the hospital and urged to go away in a few months later, a man is stabbed to death, ian coates just round the corner from that homelessness hospital and has been taken from them. later, the advantage driven to nottingham, three people are run down the centre of nottingham, no one was killed but one is in critical condition in hospital. and then he drove back out of the city centre and was finally stopped by police and the suspect was taken into custody having been tasered. that is one sequence of events and there's a unclear motivation but that doesn't seem to be a light bulb moment that it was clear there was a religious
7:04 pm
or political motivation for the attack that leaves a mystery as to why is it that someone would step to young people to death here at four o'clock in the morning. people were complete strangers and over the next hour and a half, complete strangers and over the next hourand a half, go complete strangers and over the next hour and a half, go through that sequence of events trying to break into a hostile into another person into a hostile into another person in trying to run some people down. either this some kind of weird contorted terrorist attack that is not yet been identified as such or, perhaps it is an even more unusual and strange sequence of events. live now to toby geddes, who was a friend of vitcim barnaby webber and a teammate on nottingham university's cricket team. thank you very much for being with us and we're so sorry for your loss. really her and this time we really do appreciate you talking to us and just on saturday night, are talking more to? ., ., ,

7:11 pm
inducing fearful place to be but one the most important things is asking them what is needed, do not presume, do not think i can solve all of this for you as adults are inclined to do. ask people what they need and how they want to talk about things if they do want to talk about things. in the process, all of these big emotions very different ways and again, if it's not how you might deal with it and do not try and tell somebody what they're doing is wrong. somebody what they're doing is wronu. ~ :, somebody what they're doing is wron a . : ., , :, somebody what they're doing is wronu. . , ., somebody what they're doing is wron.. ., ., somebody what they're doing is wron.. ., , ., ., ., ., wrong. what should you do for a family member _ wrong. what should you do for a family member and _ wrong. what should you do for a family member and your- wrong. what should you do for a family member and your child i wrong. what should you do for a family member and your child or loved one has been impacted by this, let them talk, that them discussing their own time, everyone's reaction could be different and trying to learn how to respond.- could be different and trying to learn how to respond. asked, it is as sim - le learn how to respond. asked, it is as simple as _ learn how to respond. asked, it is as simple as that. _ learn how to respond. asked, it is as simple as that. and _ learn how to respond. asked, it is as simple as that. and they - learn how to respond. asked, it is as simple as that. and they speakj learn how to respond. asked, it is i as simple as that. and they speak to you, listen to not presume, do not
7:12 pm
solve, do not assume everyone needs therapy or counselling either because a lot of the times, that comes second. it also, validate what people are going through. do not let somebody think, oh, they need to feel better because you're struggling with dealing with some of those emotions. from the most important things to do for parents and lecturers is to look after your own mental well—being because that is the only way to be strong for the people and also, if you cannot solve something or deal with something, do not be afraid to sign post to other people who can create that space to support. creating a safe space is really important and again, that is the freedom to ask questions and be angry and express oneself and again, someone is not able to do it through speaking, they may be able to do it through writing, journalling, there are other ways of getting that emotion out in processing it. that is what needs to happen at the moment. it is a process rather than moving through her getting over

7:14 pm
catalyst to open up what else may be going on in somebody�*s life because these moments allows permission to express ourselves in ways we don't often feel that we have and so, this could become a trigger for other issues to come out that is not a bad thing either. one thing we really do need to be aware of is not to politicise the situation and not try to make sense of it without the evidence and at the moment people are piecing things like how did this happen, why did this happen, was a random didn't have to deal with mental illness. the speculations and creating a narrative which may not be true may not be helpful, even though the rain wants to make sense of what's going on. it is about being in the moment and feeling what you're feeling and that being ok did not have the answers. you're feeling and that being 0k did not have the answers.— you're feeling and that being 0k did not have the answers. thank you very much for your— not have the answers. thank you very much for your wisdom _ not have the answers. thank you very much for your wisdom there - not have the answers. thank you very much for your wisdom there and - not have the answers. thank you very much for your wisdom there and for. much for your wisdom there and for your advice. much for your wisdom there and for youradvice. much much for your wisdom there and for your advice. much appreciated. thank

7:21 pm
city, by day is very much a normal european city and at night, converts into bunkers and most buildings have these underground bunkers as a precautionary measure from other was that have taken place in this country. so, the public is very much aware of what they need to do in the air raid sirens go off and they need to go off into the bunkers in some places, even when they do, the buildings get targeted like they did overnight in odesa like they did in central ukraine a few days ago and then we see the death toll rise this is a daily occurrence of the people of this country. every morning i look at the whatsapp groups that we have an every day, usually about another air strike, anotherfamily another air strike, another family thatis another air strike, anotherfamily that is been killed in the air strike in central ukraine a few days ago. at 22—year—old couple and both of them teachers were killed as a
7:22 pm
result of that air strike and that is a total of 11 people, three people in odesa, three others in the donetsk region and every day this all adds up and it's just a donetsk region and every day this all adds up and it'sjust a reminder that this is a nation at war. we can speak to ruslan trad, who is a security fellow at the atlantic council's digital forensics hub who is an expert in monitoring things like satellite images or digital interference to get a picture about what is happening on the ground. telus in the imaging, what you see about the picture that you are getting? the images are telling us a story that we already know that russia is very well prepared for defensive war. they are building defence lines and they are really prepared for any

the main sector of the front line because we'll prepared ukraine air defence. they are using bumpers coming from this and that way they can attack southern ukraine which is one of the main targets of an aerial attack and unfortunately for the whole territory of ukraine, the weakness in kyiv, russian armies are of striped drones which can be a problem on the ukrainian side. and at the same time, they are well prepared which means that even in the curse on region, after the disaster ukrainian forces can use striking and russian positions —— kherson and also, they are using special force operations.-

7:26 pm
thatjust moved across the far north of scotland while the vast majority of other places stayed dry with lots of sunshine. through tonight's largely clear skies overhead, those showers in northern scotland fade some areas of low cloud mist and fog here and there. and if anything, a little bit cooler and fresher than some of the nights we've had so far this week, nine to 1a degrees, the overnight lows for most, but into tomorrow, most places getting off to a fine and sunny start. much of the low cloud lifting, some may linger close to western coast, but again, some very isolated thunderstorms. there could just be one or two in the far north of scotland again. conversely, further south in glasgow, it should stay dry with highs of 26 or 27. western counties of northern ireland seeing some showers and thunderstorms, one or two popping up over the hills and mountains of wales and perhaps the moors of the west country can't completely rule out a shower elsewhere, but it should be largely dry.
7:27 pm
there will be a few places, though, where temperatures are just a degree or two down on where they have been of late. into friday this area of low pressure in the atlantic swirls ever closer, and this frontal system pushing northwards would introduce the chance for some thunderstorms in the far south west of england, the far south west of wales, but more especially northern ireland, one or two popping up elsewhere. most places will be dry and with a subtle change in the wind direction, the winds not quite coming in off the chilly waters of the north sea. it is going to feeljust a little bit warmer for some of these eastern coasts, up to around 2a or 25 degrees into the weekend. our area of low pressure swirls towards us, and this will bring some sporadic outbreaks of showery rain and perhaps some heavier and more widespread thundery rain pushing northwards by the end of the weekend. so, the increasing chance of some heavy downpours through the weekend and temperatures coming down just a little bit.

this is bbc news, the headlines. in ukraine — three people have been killed — in a russian attack on the black sea port of odesa. the european parliament draughts a code of conduct to regulate artificial intelligence in an attempt to limit potential harm. and we bring you an exclusive report from north korea, where food is so scarce, people are starving to death.
