hello, i'm martine croxall. you're watching the context on bbc news. the russian drones shooting at ukrainian civilians from the skies — we report on the new tactic. first, sport, and for a full round of from the bbc sport centre, hearest tanya.

nice to see you. we start with football and the news that ruben amorim is expected to be appointed as manchester united's new manager. however, bbc sport understands he is unlikely to join the club until after next month's international break. amorim spoke briefly at a press conference today, where he said there would be clarification after his current club, sporting, played their match on friday. it's a negotiation between two clubs. it's never easy, even with the clauses, is never easy, they have to talk, and we will have quite a few questions after the game. it will be very clear. it is one more day. after the game tomorrow, we will have the decision made. while they wait for amorim, united's caretaker manager, ruud van nistelrooy, made quite an impression in his first match. he oversaw a 5—2 victory over leicester city to secure a place in the quarterfinals of the league cup. on his own future, van nistlerooy is happy to return to his substantive role! as an assistant, i came here to help the club forward, and i'm

still very motivated to do so in any capacity. and, as an assistant and now as an interim manager after that, assistant and now as an interim managerafterthat, i assistant and now as an interim manager after that, i go back to my assistant contract that i have here. for this season and next. i'm very motivated to stay here and help the club forward. that's my absolute goal. england have four debutants in the side that's taking on the west indies in the first one day international in antigua. the west indies won the toss and opted to field, england slumped to 93—1; in the 21st over, with debutant jordan cox out for 17 and jacob bethell going for 27. liam livingstone ca ptaining england liam livingstone captaining england for the first time helped rebuild the innings, but helped rebuild the innings, but he has just gone for 48 stop a few moments ago, england were 167-5 in few moments ago, england were 167—5 in the few moments ago, england were 167-5 in the 36th few moments ago, england were

167—5 in the 36th over. the usual white ball captain jos buttler is injured. he's expected to back for the t20 series which follows. buttler has joined test captain ben stokes in extending his central contract with the ecb. buttler had originally agreed a two—year deal but has committed for a further 12 months, the same length as stokes' new contract. a total of 29 players have been awarded england men central contracts — full details on the bbc sport website and app. meanwhile, buttler has not been retained by the rajasthan royals, the indian premier league team he's been with since 2018, and will enter the auction instead. rugby union's autumn internationals are almost upon us, with scotland taking on fiji and england playing new zealand at the allianz stadium. there's already bit of spice ahead of that match, with the all blacks coach scott robertson saying england propjoe marler could have "chosen his words better" when he called for new zealand's haka to be "binned". marler called the pre—match ritual challenge "ridiculous" in a post on x, before deactivating his account, reactivating it and claiming he was "just having a �*bit of fun�* trying to spark interest in a mega rugby fixture".

but the england captain is a fan of the haka. i but the england captain is a fan of the haka.— fan of the haka. i love the theatre that _ fan of the haka. i love the theatre that inference, i fan of the haka. i love the| theatre that inference, the atmosphere generates, the connection with the fanciful sub i think it is brilliant and i have been lucky enough to play with and get to know players who have played for the all blacks or grown up in new zealand, or grown up in other pacific islands, and i think i've got a good understanding of what it means and the challenge this being laid down. meanwhile, new zealand have picked beauden barrett ahead of damian mckenzie at fly half for the match. barrett, a former two—time world player of the year, spent the early part of this year playing forjapanese side toyota verblitz as part of a sabbatical agreed with new zealand rugby. finallly, the los angeles dodgers have returned home after their world series championship win. the team and family members travelled on two planes, with the players and the commissioner's trophy flown in on the new england

patriots team plane. they'll commemorate their championship on friday with a downtown parade followed by a celebration at dodger stadium. they defeated the new york yankees in five games, clinching the title with a 7—6 victory in the bronx. that is all your sport for now, martine. tenure, thank you very much. drones have been used extensively by both the ukrainian and russian militaries and have changed how the war is being fought. there is now increasing evidence that the kremlin is using drones to target civilians from the sky. take a look at these images. the ukrainians say that in the past three months, there has been a surge in drone attacks on civilians in the southern kherson region, where at least 30 people have been killed and more than 400 injured in the past three months. this is one victim, serhi, a local trader who was hit by shrapnel when a drone dropped a grenade in his backyard. translation: when he heard

the drone, he tried _ to hide under a tree, but it was so quick. shrapnel pierced his heart. he was such a good man. this is the way the russians have decided to fight, byjust killing civilians who walk in the street. the russian military has not responded to the bbc�*s questions about these allegations. let's speak to maria avdeeva, a security expert who joins us from kyiv. welcome to the context. this, then, looks like a marketed change in tactics by the kremlin in a very personalised way. kremlin in a very personalised wa . , . , , kremlin in a very personalised wa . , ., , , , way. yes, absolutely, this drone hunt _ way. yes, absolutely, this drone hunt of— way. yes, absolutely, this drone hunt of civilians - way. yes, absolutely, this drone hunt of civilians is l way. yes, absolutely, this drone hunt of civilians is a j drone hunt of civilians is a war crime and this is what russia is using in kherson for months and basically there is little people can protect themselves, and most of them just have to stay inside, because when you're outside you are exposed to the drones, which will then drop the mine

on civilian or civilian cars, so this is what russia uses for kherson but for other ukrainian cities, they find and use other technical thing that threaten and terrorise civilians over there, like frickey avenue, for example, there are daily attacks —— for kyiv for example. the drones are here, and now they also have cameras on them, meaning that the operator who is having this drone, they can see in real—time what's happening and they can navigate these drones to hit their targets, and these are civilian targets. for kharkiv, they use glide bombs. 300, 500 kilos of explosives. one yesterday hit a residential building. russia is very

elaborate in their terror tactics, trying to inflict as much to her as they can. white is it so much — much to her as they can. white is it so much harder _ much to her as they can. white is it so much harder to - is it so much harder to intercept these drones, which is what ukraine would only try to do? , , . . , is what ukraine would only try todo? , ,, is what ukraine would only try todo? , , to do? yes, because russia has developed _ to do? yes, because russia has developed their _ to do? yes, because russia has developed their tactics - to do? yes, because russia has developed their tactics and - developed their tactics and they have developed their technologies, because since they invaded, already we will mark 1000 year of the war, that is almost three years, and russia were developing technologies and also acquiring more technologies from their allies, like iran, and they have now, when before they were buying things, now they are constructing a lot of that in russia. also, they have found ways of how to bypass western sanctions, so they now managed to bring in parts to make these drones and the technology they use has been more and more elaborate, and went ukraine is

waiting for the partners to get the consensus of bringing more help, russia uses this time to invent something, how they can attack and inflict more tabor and inflict more damage for ukrainian citizens.— ukrainian citizens. maria avdeeva, _ ukrainian citizens. maria avdeeva, security - ukrainian citizens. maria | avdeeva, security expert ukrainian citizens. maria i avdeeva, security expert in kyiv, thank you very much for joining us. let's speak to matt and nina, our panel tonight. matt, first of all, we cannot underestimate, can we, the second ledge of impact this is going to have on civilians when they think this could fall out of the sky? they think this could fallout of the sky?— of the sky? it's very unfortunate, - of the sky? it's very unfortunate, and i of the sky? it's very i unfortunate, and when of the sky? it's very - unfortunate, and when you of the sky? it's very _ unfortunate, and when you are attacking citizens in a war, in attacking citizens in a war, in a conflict like this, or any conflict, it is devastating what it essentially does, it puts a face and a narrative on war and that resonates with people around the world. certainly i know in this us election, it is resonating with americans who want to see and into this conflict, and the

reality is, when you are attacking citizens, it'sjust a different story and it puts that personal face and narrative on the war in a different light and a very unfortunate light. it is sad to hear about the attacks. certainly something that all americans and around the world want to see this and two, as war continues unfortunately. certainly it has been a centre for any potential election. i suspect whoever the next president will be, it will be a top issue, among other issues, on the foreign policy front they want to see a resolution to the no question.— they want to see a resolution to the no question. nina, when ou see to the no question. nina, when you see some _ to the no question. nina, when you see some of— to the no question. nina, when you see some of the _ to the no question. nina, when you see some of the footage i to the no question. nina, when you see some of the footage of the impact these drones have on in visual citizens, we've been verifying some of his footage on the bbc, you wonder what this is the kind of evidence i will encourage ukraine's allies to provide more of the help president zelensky has been asking for? it president zelensky has been asking for?— asking for? it is terror tactics, _ asking for? it is terror tactics, but _ asking for? it is terror i tactics, but president-elect tactics, but president—elect skee — tactics, but president—elect skee has_
