the only question i have now is what's next? 12 more anti—coup protesters are killed by security forces in myanmar, with more violence reported in several cities. russian police break up an opposition conference in moscow and detain 200 people, including high—profile figures. so it's ready, it is... go, go, go! and the voice of formula one, murray walker, has died, at the age of 97. hello, and thanks forjoining us. police in london have been heavily criticised for breaking up an unauthorised vigil for a woman who was allegedly kidnapped and murdered by a police officer. sarah everard's death has become the focus of widespread anger in the uk about male violence against women. groups of women gathered on clapham common in south london, near to where sarah everard was last seen. they held the memorial, despite the official cancellation of the event because of coronavirus rules. the police said the gathering breached restrictions. images on social media show the police forcibly removing people and pinning a woman to the ground. four arrests have been made. the mayor of london, sadiq khan, said the scenes were unacceptable. helena wilkinson reports. not far from where sarah everard went missing 11 days ago, a visible outpouring of grief. hundreds gathered at the bandstand to remember the 33—year—old. they came and stood in silence and comforted each other and they left flowers for sarah, for herfamily. i feel really sad for the family so i just want to tell them that in this time where we can't meet each other and hug each other, the community is behind them. i wanted to be here to stand in solidarity with all women. it'sjust really upset me, what's happened. the vigil here tonight had been cancelled, police had told people not to turn up because of the current lockdown, but many still did. tonight, as some tensions escalated, police called on all those to go home, saying that the gathering was not safe. these scenes adding to what has been an already extremely difficult week. it would have been a lot safer if we had the 50 stewards we had trained and ready to go to keep the crowds silent and distanced. we told the met it was going to be worse if we didn't have the organisation that we already had planned which was covid—safe. earlier, met police officer wayne couzens, believed to be in this police van, was brought before westminster magistrates' court. the 48—year—old joined the force two years ago. today, he appeared in dock, charges of kidnap and murder were formally put to him. he will next appear at the old bailey on tuesday. it's11 days since sarah everard disappeared in south london. her body was found here in woodland, near ashford, in kent, inside a builder's bag and identified through her dental records. extensive searches are continuing close to where she was found. 30 miles away, the police officer's house in deal, in kent, is also a focus. and an old garage, in dover, where he used to work is being searched. as the searches continue, tributes were paid in towns and cities up and down the country, reigniting a national conversation about women's safety. it's become a political issue. the government is seeking further views on how to tackle violence against women and girls. certainly the messages i've been having from women have been really powerful and important. the message i'm giving back to government is do something, do something meaningful, or my committee will be holding your feet to the fire over why not. for sarah everard's family, they are dealing with the unimaginable. they will be wanting answers as to what happened to sarah, who they said was bright and beautiful and a shining example. the metropolitan police have now issued a response. they accept that the actions of their officers have been questioned, but say the only responsible thing for them to do at the vigil was to act to ensure public safety. this from assistant commissioner helen ball. hundreds of people were tightly packed together posing a very real risk of easily transmitting covid—19. police must act for people's safety. this is the only responsible thing to do. the pandemic is not over and gatherings of hundreds of people from right across london and beyond are still not safe. those who gathered were spoken to by officers on a number of occasions and over an extended period of time. we repeatedly encouraged those who were there to comply with the law and leave. regrettably, a small minority of people began chanting at officers, pushing and throwing items. after speaking with officers, the vast majority of people did quickly leave. four arrests have been made for public order offences and breaches of the health protection regulations. part of the reason i'm speaking to you tonight is because we accept the actions of our officers have been questioned. we absolutely did not want to be in a position where enforcement action was necessary, but we were placed in this position because of the overriding need to protect people's safety. let's hear a little more from jamie klinger, one of the organisers of the vigil, and who founded the reclaim the streets movement. the police were not allowed to give a blanket protests were not allowed but they gave us parameters where it could be done safely and legally within covid standards. we met for two hours last night and we didn't get anywhere, we have nothing given to us to say how we could tell people to do it safely with stewards. so we could be fine, and the people up and down the country doing individual vigil could be fined, so we took the view that it would rather go to charity. and also we started a crowd funder at 7am this morning because we weren't going to pay the fines because we didn't have the protest tonight, and it hit £320,000, which was going to be the total of fines, in 11 hours. so we thought it was better to keep it about sarah. a moment of silence online we are going to try later, just to really refocus on women rather than the disagreement with the met police. let's go to the us now, and the latest on the case of breonna taylor, exactly a year on. federal investigators say they've made significant progress in their probe into the killing the young black woman, shot in her home by police officers. police forced their way into her apartment during a botched drug raid. they used a so—called "no—knock" arrest warrant that didn't require them to announce themselves. ms taylor's death helped spark black lives matter protests in louisville and across the country over the excessive use of force used by officers. breonna taylor's boyfriend, kenneth walker, has spoken to the bbc for the first time about what he witnesed on the night she died. our correspondent larry madowo began by asking kenneth how he feels about the support he's received. honestly, i'm a bit overwhelmed, but, i mean... it's bittersweet because as i look around and see all the love and support and all the people who's here to admire breonna and embrace our situation, i also have to think about how she's not here. so, it's... it's been a tough day, but i'm out here and ijust really love and appreciate everybody who loves breonna. you're wearing a t—shirt with a picture of you and her. what do people not know about her? what kind of person was breonna? man, breonna was just loving and caring, like, for sure. those are two really big words i like to say about her. she deserves everything that these people are trying to do for her. this is a nice start towards justice. even you were charged for having shot at the police that day, but the charges have now been dropped. do you feel like now you can go on with the rest of your life? i mean, i have to go on with the rest of my life regardless. i don't have a choice, but, i mean, the charges being dropped, itjust does nothing but say to me that... they're saying that i'm not wrong, you know what i'm saying? but breonna taylor was murdered, so somebody�*s responsible. so, the only question i have now is what's next? the only officer who was charged, brett hankison, is for endangering the lives of your neighbours, but not for the death of breonna taylor. how does that make you feel? well, i think it makes me feel how it makes everybody else feel. it's crazy that they thought walls or objects with no life were worth more than breonna taylor. yeah. in the year since, this park behind us has become a place to remember her, to honour her memory, and when you see all this activity, what's been your reaction? i love it here and i love all the people out here because they all love her. you know, this place encourages, symbolises hope and change. so, all this, these people are part of the process as far as getting herjustice. as a black man in america, her name and george floyd were the rallying calls for the black lives matter movement last summer and into this year. do you think something has changed in this country? things have definitely changed. laws have been made because of these situations. and my heart goes out to george floyd's family, too. we've grown to be really close to them, and also jacob bla ke's family, too. so, yeah, some change has definitely been made and justice is going to come for everybody. how do you process the grief? how do you cope with living through this tragedy? how have you been dealing with that? i've just... ijust listen to people say her name, i guess. let's get some of the day's other news. a huge car bomb in herat, western afghanistan has killed at least eight people and

an unauthorised vigil for sarah everard. a serving police officer is charged with her murder. exactly one year since a young black woman, breonna taylor, was fatally shot by police officers, us investigators say they've made significant progress in their probe into the killing. the us secretary of state, antony blinken, has condemned the arrests of 200 opposition politicians and activists in russia. he called for an end to the persecution of independent voices. russian police made the arrests at a hotel, where delegates were meeting to prepare for municipal elections. aruna iyengar has this report. the weekend forum, a gathering of municipal deputies from all over the country had just begun in a moscow hotel... ..when police burst in. ilya yashin was just one of nearly 200 detained by police. they're accused of taking part in an event organised by open russia, based in the uk and banned in russia under a law against undesirable organisations and foreign interference. open russia was set up by prominent kremlin critic mikhail khodorkovsky, who owned the oil giant yukos, before he was convicted in two controversial cases and spent a decade behind bars. he now lives abroad. police say the event also broke covid prevention rules — not all participants wore facemasks. those detained are likely to face a fine or a spell in police detention. organisers say the forum was actually convened by a different group, the united democrats project. among those arrested are some of russia's most prominent opposition voices, who'd come together to talk about contesting local elections. the incident comes as authorities continue to crack down on opposition activity as elections loom. last month, alexei navalny, president vladimir putin's most prominent critic, was jailed for two and a half years. his arrest sparked mass protests and a tough response from police. on friday, dozens of countries called on russia to release navalny, saying actions by russia against the opposition leader were unacceptable and politically motivated. activists say laws on undesirable organisations and foreign agents are being used to suppress dissent. but russia says the laws are needed to protect its national security from outside meddling. aruna iyengar, bbc news. the number of new coronavirus cases is increasing in many european countries as a third wave of the pandemic gathers momentum. italy has reported 26,000 new coronavirus cases, and it's not the only european country seeing high numbers of infections. poland's 21,000 new coronavirus cases reported on saturday is the highest figure since november. germany too has seen a daily rise — the number there is up over 12,500 in the past 2a hours. new coronavirus cases in the netherlands have reached their highest level since mid—january, with nearly 7,000 on saturday. france is also seeing a resurgence of covid cases. in the capital paris, intensive care wards are almost full and the government says it's considering stricter restrictions. but any move could meet some resistance. 25 theatres across france are currently being occupied by proteters who are demanding the venues reopen. baptiste chevalier duflot is among the protesters occupying the odeon theatre. i am here from the beginning, so it's been ten days for now yeah, we are occupying, i mean, we are in a way, reoccu pying these places. because we used to be there, we used to work there, we used to show the people theatres, thoughts, arts, in fact. this is what we are doing right now. we are doing a daily agora. we called it like that because it's the function of the theatre to open minds and to share music, hearts and this is what we are doing every day and people are really, really happy to see that. they choose to open the supermarkets, the trains, the national embassies are packed with people. they choose to let the people not going out, not going to theatres. we know we can open safely, we did it. we didn't have any problem with coronavirus spreading in theatres. we asked the ministry of culture to show us a plan to reopen, you know? if the vaccination is the solution, we need to know when we will be able to open. the broadcaster murray walker, described as "the voice of formula one", has died — he was 97. his distintive commentary style and passion for motor sport won him fans around the world. andy swiss looks back at his life. so, it's ready. it. . . is. .. ..go, go, go, go! and schumacher leads, brilliant start... exuberance, excitable and utterly unmistakable. ..by the austrian driver in the back... murray walker was the high—octane voice behind a high—octane sport. it was once said that even in his quieter moments, he sounded like his trousers were on fire. that's it. bang bang, and off! his passion came from his father graham walker, who raced motorcycles and was himself a commentator often sharing the duties with young murray. the sensation is that tommy wood went through not on time, not after time, but ahead of time. and after commentating on his first british grand prix in 1919, murray walker became an integral part of formula 1. but in a sport of inevitable risk, he was faced with tragedy, too. world motor racing champion ayrton senna has been pronounced clinically dead. when the great ayrton senna died in a crash in 1994, walker's shock was only too clear. this is the blackest day for grand prix racing that i can remember in the many, many years that i've been covering the sport. walker never hid his emotions, most famously when his friend damon hill won the world title in 1996. damon hill exits the chicane and wins the japanese grand prix, and i've got to stop because i've got a lump in my throat! because he really genuinely loved motorsport and was fascinated by formula! and all things with an engine, he communicated that enthusiasm and people were drawn in by that and they recognised that as well. real spectacular driving, watch this. his frenetic style wasn't without its gaffes. looks through a completely clean windscreen, and that's the big advantage of course of being in front. his energy and enthusiasm endeared him to millions, and when he covered his final british grand prix in 2001, the affection was plain to see. one of sport's most imitated voices, but there will only ever be one murray walker. murray walker, who's died at the age of 97. the former boxing world champion marvin hagler has died at his home in new hampshire — aged 66. the american, known to fans as marvellous marvin, became the undisputed middleweight world champion in 1980, and dominated the division through most of the decade. you can reach me on twitter — @lvaughanjones. hello. well, the weather on sunday morning isn't looking too bad for most of us — bright, even sunny skies on the way but it's not going to last. clouds are expected to increase and rain is in the forecast. in fact, quite early in the morning it will already start to rain across some western areas of the uk. and as one weather system pulls away, a bit of a gap here through the early hours and then this next weather front pushes in and that's going to bring the rainfall on sunday. so, the forecast through the early hours shows the clear skies there across most of the uk. a few scattered showers here and there, the winds are light as well and by early on sunday morning, temperatures are close to freezing in some of the northern towns and cities. in the south of the country, it's closer to around 4 celsius for example in plymouth and in cardiff. so here is that bright or even sunny morning across many parts of the country with the clouds quickly increasing there from the west, so rain for belfast, rain reaching the north—west of england, certainly the lake district. liverpool in for some rain. probably rain reaching birmingham sometime early in the afternoon. but not the extreme south—east of england or the north or the east of scotland. in fact in aberdeen, it may well stay sunny all through the day. but i think as far as southern england's concerned and east anglia, you will get rain later on on sunday. now, the forecast into monday shows high pressure building very close to the uk. there are weather fronts approaching us and they will be brushing the far north—west of the country but i think that high pressure is eventually going to win. so, here's monday morning and we've got lots of fine, again bright or sunny weather, but clouds increasing here in the north west. so, skies i think are a little hazy both in the morning and the afternoon for places like belfast and glasgow but sunshine for norwich and london. and the temperatures, 13 celsius with lighter winds and sunshine, shouldn't feel too bad at all. tuesday into wednesday, that high pressure establishes itself across the uk but notice there's a weather front riding around its edge. so at times, it may be cloudy. but on balance, i think it's the high pressure that will win and the weather will be settled. so, here's the outlook for the week ahead. you can see mostly settled weather across the majority of the uk. temperatures rising a little bit but then it looks as though it's going to turn a little bit colder again towards the end of the week. this is bbc news, the headlines: police in london have been heavily criticised for breaking up an unauthorised vigil for a woman who was allegedly kidnapped and killed. sarah everard's death has become the focus of widespread anger in the uk about male violence against women. a serving police officer has been

the country, against last month's military coup. international pressure is building on the authorities to stop using deadly force against unarmed demonstrators. now, if you've got an old petrol or diesel car,
