geoff roberts is among the few surviving veterans of arnhem.d. 0peration market garden may not be remembered as a military victory but, perhaps even more strikingly, for the courage and tenacity demonstrated by the allied forces. this drop zone, this heath here, was contested. the enemy were in the woods around it. it was on fire. the drama of that afternoon is something you canjust begin to realise as you look at the tree line and think about the place. this may have been one of the final opportunities to re—enact what was one of the most daring missions of the second world war while veterans who took part in the battle for arnhem are still here to share the experience. this isn'tjust about remembering the past but ensuring future generations are conscious of how and by whom their freedom was fought for. anna holligan, bbc news, ginkel heath. it has been five years since game of thrones came to an end on our screens, but now a stunning collection of the tv show�*s memorabilia is going up for auction. superfans of the award—winning show will ha

arnhem itself was left pretty shattered and the dutch living here had a terrible winter in 1944, 1945ans in april 1945. but the principles behind it were entirely laudable, and it has to be remembered, there was an entire allied airborne army waiting in the uk to be deployed. and if you've got these highly motivated troops, highly trained troops, some of the best troops in the allied arsenal, why wouldn't you want to try and use them? so i think the aims behind it were entirely laudable. kenya's deputy president, rigathi gachagua. has tried to explain his absence from several recent state events by saying he was removed from a whatsapp group that manages the president's diary. pictures of an empty chair reserved for him beside president william ruto during a church service last sunday have been shared by many people online. in an interview, he told a local tv station that since his team was removed from the whatsapp group, he doesn't know what the president is doing. arguably we've all been there. the international chess federation is due to decide whether to readmit russia and belaru
