clive myrie with that report there. general election. sir keir starmer was greeted warmly by president zelensky as he restated the uk's continuing commitment to the country in its war against russia, as sarah rainsford now reports. this was a show of solidarity for a country that's paid a huge price for defending itself. on his first visit to kyiv as prime minister, keir starmer paused to remember the ukrainians who've died fighting since russia's invasion. he came, too, to pledge more support from britain than ever before. moments later came a message from moscow. a russian drone. then we heard ukraine's air defences, a reminder of the daily danger here. by then, volodymyr zelenskyy was hosting talks at the presidential palace, signing a treaty pledging 100—year partnership. the timing is important. in eastern ukraine, more territory looks like this every day. slowly and at great cost russian forces are advancing. and next week, the united states has a new president. i wondered how concerned you are that as donald trum

we've also heard complaints from viewers about clive myrie being sent out to la, and a question about scale of the bbc presence in the area. what's your view on the impact of a big media presence in a disaster zone? well, this is something we're a bit more ambivalent because without disaster journalism, we wouldn't see socialjustice and advocacy in the way that we do. and again, you know, the bbc is known for the quality of those journalists. so i would take some issue with the idea of completely staying away. but as i say, it's very much about when you are there being very wary of perpetuating disaster myths using up local resource. so as a responder, we're often in a fight with big media organisations for hotel space, for example, for both evacuated citizens and for responders. so i think what i would like to start a debate on is two things: ethical reporting on disaster as we see more and more of them, but also perhaps industry agreed change so that not, you know, not pushing the envelope all the time to get the best story. viewers have also pointed out that the la fires got a lot

let's join clive myrie, who is in los angeles for us now. we are in altadena. downtown, and this is one of the areas that was very badly hit by the wildfires, but it's also a closed area now. people still cannot return to their homes. why? well, the construction crews working up there, they are trying to sort out the gas and electricity supplies, make them safe. we've got members of the sheriff's office here. you've also got the national guard. and police keeping an eye out for looters. but there is also another grim reason people can't return to this area, and it's partly because there may still be bodies of some of those people who are missing, still in the wreckage of some of the buildings that were destroyed by the fires. there was a fear that there would be winds picking up on tuesday and wednesday this week. that might fan the flames of the blaze is still going on. at that thankfully did not happen, of the blaze is still going on. at that thankfully did not hap trying to working up there, they are trying to sort out the gas and electricity supplies, make

clive myrie looking at donald trump's path back to the white house. iqbal is in washington and talked us through what we can expect later today. so the inauguration won't be happening outside, but that doesn't mean that donald trump won't make this a show. we've already seen he's held this huge rally at the capital one arena — he plans to do it after the inauguration, as well — and we understand that he might be signing a lot of executive orders on various issues such as immigration — a big issue amongst his supporters — in front of them. there will be the traditional events like the inaugural ball later on in the evening. the key time, however, tomorrow is of course noon — midday — it's in the constitution, when the clock strikes midday, donald trump will go from being donald trump to once again being the us president. and, you know, it's a remarkable political comeback for him. this summer will mark ten years of donald trump, and i remember when he was elected at the time — i think we all do — it was sort of an astonishing, extraordinary, people did
