in belarus we meet aivivists campaigning against a new factorory, which they fear is n environmentalisaster in the making. but we start in rwanda. many fled the country during the genocide. some are now returning.. we find out how that feels. the rwandan genocide was, without t doubt, one of the darkesest periods in humanan history. in january 1994, the u.n. commander in rwanda, romeo dallaire, alerted the headquarters in new york. he'd received word that a pro-regime hutu group was preparing an attack against the tutsi minority. but he was told to take no action. in april 1994, rwanda's president juvenal habyarimana, a hutu, was killed when his plane was shot down. within hours, the genocide began. in 100 days, radical hutu militias had killed up to a million tutsis and politically moderate hutus. those who could, fled. at firstst tutsis, thehen later hutus, fearing revenge by the victims. thousands headed to neighboring democratic republic of congo. and only now, 25 years later, are some of them finally returning to t their homeland. reporter: daybreak in eastern congo. a region th

and finally, russia's president vladimir putin has been showing—off his ice hockey moves with belarus'sn sochi after a culture, education and sport meeting. playing on the same team they beat the other side 16—1. and putin himself, who also has a black belt injudo, scored seven of those goals. he was unsurprisingly the top scorer of the game. that's all from sportsday. we'll have more sport throughout the weekend. an exciting weekend of sport. but from all of us, it's good night. hello, and welcome to our look ahead to what the the papers will be bringing us tomorrow. with me are the deputy editor of the daily express, michael booker, and the author and journalist, yasmin alibhai—brown. she's clearly engrossed in what we are putting in front of her tonight. idid my are putting in front of her tonight. i did my homework. many of tomorrow's front pages are already in. michael is much more sombre. the daily telegraph says that some mps are boosting their expenses by claiming for adult children who are "dependent" upon them. the paper says the mps are operating within the rules. private woe

. —— belarus player.m is my first win in quite a while so obviously before the match i had some nerveshowed during the game but i am happy to step over that barrier and be able to play in my next round. in the men's draw, alexander zverev came through a frustrating first round match. the 22—year—old won the opening two sets before australian, millman, levelled the match. he showed his medal to break in the last. police in spain have made a number of arrests as part of an investigation into football match—fixing. they say 11 people are expected to be arrested in total and at least three matches are being investigated across the country's top three divisions. a spokesman for la liga said the police action followed a complaint it had made over a match in may 2018. gennaro gattuso is stepping down as milan head coach after they failed to qualify for the champions league. the former italy international has been in the job for 18 months and had a contract until 2021, but despite a final day victory in serie a, they finished in fifth place, behind their city rivals inter. it was however milan

the leader in belarus i believe has not changed. there was a little blip in the time line, but putin is standing on his shoulder. and every five years, the leader in ukraine changes. and there is a pattern, obviously, here, of upheaval and major change. and is that what we experienced on sunday, is another moment of this juncture that sort of fits in a bigger pattern of how ukraine as a society and a political entity organizes itself? is that what we're witnessing? or is it what newspaper accounts portray, which is this the reality tv and the tv star and the very charismatic figure who came out of, you know, the tv screen, as a, you know, interesti interesting very charismatic figure that people got to know as a tv character and he said oh, by the way i want to be your president for real, it was very easy for people to just sort of say, we are so unhappy, we'll take anything over the current government, which you know, has not delivered prosperity, which has not resolved the conflict with russia, you know, so it is easy to just kind
