Broadcast overview
An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
Donald Trump said it was time for Ukraine to get a new president after Volodymyr Zelensky criticised a US decision to lift sanctions and buy Russian diesel. Russian strikes killed at least 15 people in Ukraine overnight, with at least 12 reported killed in a single strike in Zaporizhia, including at least three children. Trump blamed Zelensky for the diesel crisis and said he should stop attacking Russian oil refineries. Downing Street said Andy Burnham had spoken to Zelensky to reiterate UK support, and a BBC correspondent in Kyiv reported alarm and fury at Trump favouring Vladimir Putin, with the row linked to US diesel prices, the war with Iran and midterm elections. The correspondent said weekend peace talks had been derailed, Ukraine would fight on, and it needed US support, intelligence and weapons; hypersonic missiles heading towards Kyiv that afternoon were shot down by US-made Patriot interceptors.
A man died after entering a tiger enclosure at Yorkshire Wildlife Park, South Yorkshire Police said, and despite emergency services efforts he could not be saved; the park was evacuated and remained closed, while the animal stayed in its enclosure and there was no wider risk. In Saudi Arabia, a missile attack on Riyadh's international airport, suspected to have been carried out by Iranian-backed Houthis, was reported to have killed at least two people and injured dozens, following similar attacks this week that killed four people; the UK Foreign Office told British nationals to stay away until the airport was secure. In India, hundreds of young protesters were detained in Delhi as authorities tried to prevent another major protest by the Cockroach Janta Party, which wants electoral reforms and the resignation of the chief election commissioner over alleged manipulation of voter lists; its founder and some opposition politicians were among those detained.
In Tennessee, death row inmate Christa Pike was discharged from hospital after surviving two attempts to execute her last week and returned to the rehabilitation centre where she was being held; the governor ordered an investigation and her legal team were pushing to change her death sentence to life in prison without parole. In Pakistan, a court ruled that the five siblings of Sara Sharif, who was murdered by her father and stepmother in Surrey in 2023, will live with their paternal grandfather, who was made their guardian after years of legal limbo. He said he would ensure they got the best possible education and care and help them return to a normal life, and that they could return to the UK if they chose when they were older. Striking aurora displays were reported across the UK, including unusually in the south.

Watch out, there's another one coming. Protesters taken to stadiums turned into detention centres. Again and again. Protesting is a democratic right. I don't think we have that anymore.
