Good evening. A 36 year old man has been charged with the murder of a 14 year old boy who was killed in a sword attack in east london yesterday morning. 14 year old Daniel Anjorin was walking to school when he was killed. Marcus monzo, a spanish Brazilian National who lives in east london, has also been charged with a number of other offences. Lucy manning is there for us now. 19 minutes ago, prosecutors announced that marcus monzo from east london had been charged with the teenagers murder. He is also charged with two counts of attempted murder, two counts of grievous bodily harm, aggravated burglary and possession of a bladed item. It comes after daniel was stabbed here yesterday morning went to Police Officers were also wounded trying to apprehend the suspect, and two other men in their 30s were also injured. But today was also about hearing the name and character of Daniel Anjorin, and by all accounts, he was a lovely and conscientious boy. Daniel anjorin, smart in his uniform, travelling to school just like he set off to do yesterday morning. But the 14 year old wouldnt make it. The teenager, a much loved pupil, the son of a teacher. Family friends spoke after visiting daniels parents. The mum was saying that he brings so muchjoy. Well behaved. Yes, well behaved, a lovely boy. He excelled in school and in sports. They are obviously in shock and they are grieving. They are ok. Ok and not ok. At Bancroft School in east london, there is a pupil missing who never made it. Its flag is at half mast, but there is double the grief. As well as daniel, this was grace omalley kumar� s school. She was killed in a knife attack in nottingham last year. In a statement, the school said. We are devastated by the heartbreaking news of the death of Daniel Anjorin. This has left us in profound shock and sorrow. He was a true scholar, demonstrating commendable dedication to his academic pursuits. His positive nature and gentle character will leave a Lasting Impact on us. As locals brought flowers, a neighbour who didnt want to be identified described seeing daniel attacked. We know the boy, see him going to school. We know the parents. Theyre a very nice family, and you just cant imagine what theyre going through now. Its a complete tragedy. A young boy should not be walking to school and being stabbed before his doorstep. The bravery of the officers yesterday was clear. As the attacker brandishes his sword, the officer on the left uses his taser twice. Then the policewoman in the centre tasers him again. But before this, two Police Officers, the met Chief Constable said, were really horrifically injured. I went to the hospital yesterday. I saw the inspector whose hands badly damaged, really serious injuries there. And i was talking to the family and colleagues of the officer, a Woman Officer whose really badly damaged arm, really seriously damaged. And the surgeon spent many, many hours sort of basically putting her arm back together. The Anjorin Family left heartbroken by such a senseless attack. Lucy manning, bbc news. This evening, it was announced that marcus monzo had been charged with the murder and other offences. Lucy manning, bbc news. A week after five people died off the coast of france as they tried to cross the channel in an overcrowded small boat, we have managed to piece together what happened to the youngest victim who was just seven years old. Sara was visible as she was carried on her fathers shoulders as the Police Chased them across the beach. Our correspondent andrew harding, who witnessed what happened that night, has tracked down the little girls father. He told him what happened and why the family took such a risk on what was their fourth attempt at crossing. Shouting this was the scene last week as smugglers clashed with police on a french beach. And in the middle of the chaos, one unforgettable image of a small girl perched on herfather� s shoulders a seven Year Old Girl with moments left to live. We now know her name was sara, and this is her story. Sara was born in belgium but grew up in sweden, one of three children. Here they are with theirfather, ahmed. Hed fled from iraq in 2009 and spent years trying but failing to get permission to settle anywhere in europe. He got married, worked, had children, but his Asylum Appeals were rejected. Instead, he says, the whole family faced deportation to iraq. Which is why ahmed brought them here instead, hiding with smugglers in these dunes near calais. So you were with your whole family here, all five of you . With family, with everybody. Family stay, seat for this side. Ahmed brought us back to the french coast to explain what had happened and why he put his family in such danger. He shows me how they rushed towards the sea. Youre racing them . Yes. Trying to get to the water before the police . Yes. It must have been scary for the children. Yeah. The Police Caught up with them near the waters edge. We were there, too, filming the whole incident. The smugglers fighting back. And then here on the right sara, in a pinkjacket, making her way towards the boat, Still Holding herfather� s hand. A little later, you can see her on ahmeds shoulders. Then she disappears into the wildly overcrowded boat. A rival group of smugglers had directed their passengers from sudan towards the same boat. As more migrants piled on board, you can hear Ahmed Shouting for help. Pop translation she said, help me, i dad, but i couldnt reach her. I there were people standing on top of us, and sara disappeared below me. I was trapped. I told one man to move. I screamed and hit him. But he just looked away. Ashore, the French Police made no further attempt to intervene. It was only later at sea that a rescue boat finally took people away to reveal saras dead body. Finally, when the rescue boat came, they started to pull people out, to pull out the dead. Then i saw sara. She was in the corner. Herface was blue. She wasnt breathing. There will be people watching this who will say, why did you take that risk . Why were you prepared to take such a risk for you and yourfamily to try to get to england . How do you explain that . The sea was my last option. I applied 1a times for asylum, but they were all denied. I went to belgium, to sweden, to finland. I didnt want any hand outs. My wife and i can both work. All i wanted was for my kids to go to school. To have dignity. Before she left sweden, sara drew this family portrait. Thats her on the right. Today, her Old School Teacher said the class was mourning her death. Translation she was a kind and nice i girl with lots of friends at school. I when we heard shed died, we gathered in a circle and had a minutes silence. They were such a nice family. I was really shocked to learn they were being deported. Sara and her siblings had only ever lived in europe. Herfuneral is expected in the coming days. He sobs for herfather, there is grief and guilt, and still no clarity about which country he and his broken family can ever call home. For now, the family looks set to remain here in calais where the summer approaches, the weather improves, and French Police are bracing themselves for a big surge in the number of attempted migrant crossings. And of course we are all waiting to see whether the new british policy of deporting people on flights to rue rwanda will have any effect on the numbers of people attempting to make the dangerous journey to the uk. Israel has reopened the main crossing into Northern Gaza the Erez Crossing for the First Time Since the attacks by hamas on october then 7th to allow in more humanitarian aid to the areas threatened by famine. The un has warned that more than 70 of the population faces catastrophic levels of hunger. The us Secretary Of State Antony Blinken met the israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu injerusalem and urged him to ensure that more humanitarian aid gets in to gaza. Mr blinken also called on hamas to accept the terms of a Ceasefire Deal that would see a pause in fighting and the release of israeli hostages. Our special correspondent fergal keane reports from the Erez Crossing. A gate towards the war. Where israels army today showcased how it planned to boost aid reaching gaza. This is the Erez Crossing in the north of the gaza strip, with gaza devastated on the other side. The plan is to get 500 trucks a day into gaza from here. The un wants many more to avert what it calls a man made famine. The optics, designed to convey an israel listening to america and other allies. Every day, every day, we wont stop. All very different to the beginning of the war, nearly seven months ago. Were putting a complete siege on gaza, said israels defence minister, yoav gallant. No electricity, no food, no water, no gas its all closed. This exercise comes after weeks of pressure on israel from the International Community to allow more food, medicine, supplies into gaza and after one senior un official warned israel might be committing a war crime, using food as a weapon of war. The International Criminal court is reportedly considering Arrest Warrants for israels war leaders. Are you worried that you, other senior idf officers, might be charged with war crimes as a consequence of that . We never set any bar, any limit regarding the entrance of humanitarian aid and specifically not food. The un and aid agencies say that simply isnt true. Here, the Charity World central kitchen reopened, a month after seven of its workers, including three britons, were killed in an israeli attack. This is a lifeline in central gaza, where the elderly and children are acutely vulnerable from hunger and war. Nine year old mayam al al is dug free from the rubble of an air strike. 16 other children in her extended family were killed. Hers is a life broken by war. Mayam told us that now she wanted to go to god. A ceasefire wont bring back the dead, but it might allow mayam to believe again in life. Fergal keane, bbc news, jerusalem. Hundreds of people have been arrested at Pro Palestinian protests at University Campuses in the United States amid violent clashes. In new york alone, 300 people were detained, while in los angeles, demonstrators at a camp set up by people who oppose israels military action in gaza clashed with counter demonstrators. In the last few weeks, dozens of College Campuses across the us have been taken over by students calling for universities to Boycott Companies and individuals with ties to israel. Emma vardy is on the west coast, at ucla in los angeles. Our north america editor, sarah smith, is on the east Coast Outside Columbia University in new york. Well go first to emma in california. Many students and teachers arrived here at ucla to find classes cancelled, helicopters overhead and a heavy Police Presence on campus. The university has condemned what happened here at last night. Things are much calmer now but it has brought campus life to a standstill today and it is just not clear how it will be resolved. This was the moment tensions between rival protesters boiled over. Pro palestinian activists and a counterdemonstration by pro israel supporters became violent. Fireworks were thrown over a screaming crowd, and wood used as weapons. We had people beating us with sticks, throwing whatever they could to us. Im kind of annoyed at myself for not seeing it coming, but i didnt think it would ever get to this, escalate to this level. The Los Angeles Police were called by The University. The Vice Chancellor has condemned last nights events as a horrific act of violence. Eventually officers separated the groups.

Antisemitism that is boiling in our back yard here at ucla. As this has crown, back yard here at ucla. As this has grown. There back yard here at ucla. As this has grown, there have back yard here at ucla. As this has grown, there have been back yard here at ucla. As this has grown, there have been disruption | grown, there have been disruption for many students in la with campuses closed and Graduation Ceremonies are scaled back. There was particular Frustration Debate for students who would have been taking exams. Instead, a heavy Police Presence on campus will continue. It was here at Columbia University in new york that these protests first started and it was when police started arresting students here two weeks ago that they began spreading nationwide and it was here last night that the police came back to clear out Protesters Red barricaded themselves inside one of university buildings. When the nypd came, they came in force. Dressed in riot gear, prepared for confrontation. They climbed through windows to clear out the protesters who had occupied a university building. This student told the bbc she saw rough tactics from the police. There was someone unconscious on the floor getting arrested and they were pulled away, while they were unconscious. Three people were pushed down the stairs, by nypd. Around 300 protesters, both here and at City University new york, were handcuffed, arrested and removed on buses. The authorities believe the demonstrations had been infiltrated by outside agitators and well known anarchists. This is a global problem, that young people are being influenced by those who are professionals at radicalising our children, and im not going to allow that to happen as the mayor of the city of new york. Today, on the street outside columbias campus, students were defiantly undeterred, joined by many of their teachers as they continued to demand The University sells any shares it owns in companies associated with israel. At The University of wisconsin today, protesters pushed back against the police. Dozens were arrested. It is images like these that spark more demonstrations on more campuses as these protests sweep the nation from coast to coast. So where does this go now . We are approaching the end of term so many universities hope the protest will fizzle out during the Summer Holidays but not before Graduation Ceremonies might be disrupted, particularly those where President Biden is due to give the address. This is such a tricky political issue for them, he knows he is at risk of losing the support of thousands of young activists who want him to be more critical of israel but he has to consider moderate swing voters who would like to hear him condemn the disruption going on on campuses and it isjust six months until the election. Sarah, thank you.

We hear the reason was due to a technical issue, a component in the heating and Ventilation System that came about in the sound check, and the organisers have again apologised. They have already confirmed that Olivia Rodrigos shows on friday and saturday will be postponed and as you said, its the third time that a gig at the venue has been postponed, the big opening, peter kay, was meant to be part of that last month. The co op group, which runs the venue, has said they were shocked and would be seeking a full explanation from the company that runs the building but of course that runs the building but of course that will be little comfort to the fans we heard from tonight. Indeed, thank ou. The disgraced hollywood Film Producer Harvey Weinstein will get a retrial after having one of his Rape Convictions overturned in a court in new york last week. His lawyers claim he did not receive a fair trial when he was convicted back in 2020. The 72 year old will remain in jail because of a separate rape conviction in california. Scotlands outgoing First Minister, humza yousaf, has insisted that ending the snps Power Sharing Agreement with the scottish greens was the right thing to do. But he said hed paid the price with hisjob. Mr yousaf has been speaking to our scotland editor, james cook. First minister, good morning, how are you . Well, hes reflective and regretful. A First Minister on his way out after his decision to ditch the greens left him unable to govern. Ending the Bute House Agreement was the right decision both for my party and my country. But i have to acknowledge the manner in which i did it caused great upset, and thats on me. Are you kicking yourself . I do of course reflect a lot, and i do regret how this has ended. So does he Wantjohn Swinney to take over . Good morning. Or should it be kate forbes, who ran humza yousaf close in an acrimonious leadership contest just last year . He wont say. Whatever happens, if it is a contest, my plea as to any candidate to make sure we are talking each other up not talking each other down, because the only people who benefit from that are our opponents. Unlike last time. Thats a dig at kate forbes . No, its not, because ive got to play my role and that as well so i am self reflecting on the fact that i was involved in that campaign. Is there something wrong with politics in this country now, and do you share some responsibility for that . The fact that almost every discussion and debate descends into a toxic culture war is really regressive for our politics. Im not saying that we should all agree on everything, im perfectly fine, thats the whole point of our politics is to debate. And, by the way, debate quite robustly. No party is perfect, im not suggesting to you we havent perhaps at times overstepped the mark either in terms of respectful debate. But then it was back to the bearpit to defend not his leadership but the Scottish Government in a vote of no confidence. For the second time in as many years we have scandal, incompetence and political Self Interest with the snp putting party before country and imposing their choice on the people of scotland. We want to get rid of this entire i distracted, divided snp government. And the upcoming General Election will have the chance to deliver i another blow to them. The government survived the vote thanks to the greens. A reminder that consensus will be critical for the next First Minister. James cook, bbc news, edinburgh. Russia has put on display a range of western made Military Hardware captured from the battlefield in ukraine. It includes british made armoured vehicles as well as tanks from france, germany and the United States. Our russia editor, steve rosenberg, went to see it. Theyre the kremlin� s war trophies, and moscow is flaunting them. Put on display western Military Hardware. All these items had been sent to help ukraine on the battlefield, but were later captured by russia, including this, the husky, a british armoured vehicle, now a museum piece in moscow. There are tanks, too. This American Abrams had been badly damaged near the ukrainian town of avdiivka. Its now a prize exhibit at this military show, along with the german leopard tank the russians got, too. Its incredible, jaw dropping, says natalya. Its amazing to think that our guys managed to collect all these trophies. There was plenty of interest from the russian public. Russians crowded around to get a glimpse and a photo. Family days out dont get much more bizarre than this. So why put all of this on display . Well, i think the russian authorities have two aims here. The first is to reinforce the kremlin� s narrative that in ukraine, the west is waging war against russia, even though it was russia that invaded ukraine. But theres also a big element of gloating here. The russians are increasingly confident about how the war is going, and their main message is written on a sign just over there. And it reads, our victory is inevitable. Russia didnt invent the wheel here. In the past, ukraine has exhibited Russian Military hardware it captured on the front line. Back in moscow, there may be confidence and captured armour, but that doesnt guarantee victory. The west has pledged more help for ukraine. Russia has pledged to collect more trophies. Steve rosenberg, bbc news, moscow. Tomorrow, millions across england and wales will go to the polls to elect mayors, councillors and police and crime commissioners. These will be the last set of local elections before a General Election, expected later this year. Heres our deputy political editor, vicki young, to explain all. Tomorrow, every voter in england and wales will have the chance to take part in an election. In some areas, more than one contest is taking place. There are no elections in scotland or northern ireland, apart from a few council by elections. In england, 107 councils have elections. Theyre mostly in larger towns and cities in the north of england and the midlands, although they also cover quite a lot of the Commuter Belt around london. Around 2,600 seats are up for grabs. The last time they were contested, the conservatives were riding high after the Covid Vaccine roll out, but now its labour hoping to translate their opinion poll leads into real votes. The lib dems are defending just over 400 seats and the green party around 100. In london, there are elections for the mayor and assembly, and there are also ten other mayoral elections in england most of them in what are called combined authority areas, including the West Midlands and greater manchester. If you live in the east midlands, north east or york and North Yorkshire area, youll get to elect a mayor for the first time. There are 37 police and crime commissioner elections across england and wales. Theirjob is to hold their local Chief Constable and police force to account. In blackpool south, voters will be choosing a new mp. The by election there was triggered by the resignation of the former conservative mp scott benton. He was suspended from parliament for 35 days after being involved in a lobbying scandal. When you vote, youll now have to show photo id. There are 22 acceptable forms of id, including passports, driving licences, some bus passes and a blue parking badge. Voting closes at 10pm tomorrow, and results will start to come in overnight into friday and continue throughout the weekend. And finally to a 98 year old ukrainian woman who walked six miles in her slippers to escape russian shelling in her village. Shes been telling her story to our ukraine correspondent james waterhouse. The moment Lidia Lomikovska was picked up after theres nothing left, she tells her much needed ride. This is what lidia left behind. The closer Russian Forces got, the heavier the Artillery Fire became. She says this is worse than the second world war, which she also lived through. The 98 year old has learnt to trust her instinct. But then she told us she became separated from her relatives, so started walking west. Translation | took a stick and a plank of wood and made my way. My legs were carrying me somehow. I wasnt carrying them. She ended up at this shelterfor a rest, still in the slippers she trekked in. Lidias granddaughter, svetlana, is certainly happy to have her back. I cant believe the idea of walking would come to her mind at her age. I wont repeat this. Oh, no, dont do that again. James waterhouse, bbc news, kyiv. Time for a look at the weather. Heres tomasz schafernaker. Some dramatic weather heading this way
