Broadcast overview
An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
The Prime Minister Andy Burnham visited Kiev on Ukraine's Independence Day, pledged continued support for Ukraine, and promised to help boost air defences by sharing long-range missile information. In an interview, Ukrainian MP Lisa Yasko described the exhaustion in Kiev, the day's significance, and appealed for more air defence missiles. Separately, the daily global average sea surface temperature reached its highest level on record in August 2026, according to Copernicus data, with scientists linking it to climate change and a brewing El Niño.
Pressure mounted on FIFA president Gianni Infantino over his failed World Cup sell-off plans, with six Nordic football associations losing confidence and CONCACAF president Victor Montagliani asking Infantino to stay away from a youth tournament in the Dominican Republic. Montagliani declined to endorse Infantino and did not rule out replacing him. Ahead of Notting Hill Carnival's 60th anniversary, the Metropolitan Police conducted operations to disrupt gangs, drugs and weapons, aiming to prevent violence and disorder at the event which is expected to draw around 2 million people.
