To capture the city of kharkiv, in the north east of the country. But, in kharkiv region, police are going door to door in the town of vovchansk to evacuate the remaining residents, as Russian Shelling intensifies. These images are from vovchansk. Russia launched a Surprise Offensive there last week, with one analysis suggesting Russian Forces have advanced by about 10 kilometres, creating a new front in the war on ukraine. A sixteen and a half hour Air Raid Alert has now been lifted in kharkiv itself. Our ukraine correspondent James Waterhouse is in kyiv with the latest. This war has now firmly moved from Trench Warfare in this North Eastern part of the front line. I dont think the words of Vladimir Putin, where he said at a Press Conference in china, that there were no plans, for now, to try and capture the city of kharkiv. I dont think that will bring a collective sigh of relief for the thousands of people still living in the city. I think there are two things at play. Firstly, i dont think this collection of Russian Forces, between 5,000 to 10,000 troops who have made this incursion across the border. It is not yet thought they are capable of surrounding the city, especially when you consider around 80,000 Russian Troops were involved in capturing a town called avdiivka further south, which is a fraction of the size of kharkiv. But secondly, i dont think anyone believes Vladimir Putin when he talks about this plan for continued invasion. Once upon a time, in 2022, he said he had no plans to invade ukraine. I think that has shaped the common ukrainian view since then. He also talked about, i think, he almost reflected his lack of willingness to compromise. He talked about ukraines conditions for peace, which include restoring its original borders that would include crimea, which has been occupied since 2014 for Russian Forces to withdraw completely. He described those conditions as being based on wishes and not the realities of the battlefield. I think that is the rub at the moment in time. That is why we can expect fierce fighting to certainly continue. Amid that fierce fighting what sort of assessments are you hearing from the ukrainian side about their capability to hold the line as they wait for resupply of munitions from america and elsewhere . You just need to look at what president zelensky is saying. He has cancelled international travel. He has visited the city of kharkiv and he described the situation is being very difficult but under control. The authorities have said this before when ukraine has ultimately lost more territory. He is claiming that the russians advance has gone around ten kilometres at its deepest. He blames a lack of air defences which is still pushing the west for, for then being able to push him this far in terms of the heavy bombardment is that they have been able to launch, these Russian Forces. So he is blaming that but it is clear his troops are struggling. They are moving reserve forces away from towns coming under heavy attack. They are moving personnel from zaporizhzhia, even further south, and what that means is, what ukraine tries to plug this gap and slow this russian advance in the north east, it thins the front line elsewhere. It is a front line that is creaking, and crucially for ukraine, it is growing, to. James, thank you very much. 0ur defence correspondent Jonathan Beale is in kharkhiv with the latest. Well, i think there are some people here, ivejust been well, i think there are some people here, ive just been speaking to the governor of this region who thinks that there was a plan. Which included trying to capture, eventually, the city of kharkiv but President Putin has also been talking about creating this buffer zone between russia and ukraine to prevent ukraine firing into russian territory and that is the focus, he says, these operations. He says his forces are advancing every single day. What ukraine says is that they are slowly stabilising the front of their weaving ukraines top Military Commander admits that Russian Forces are expanding offensive operations and that there will be difficult battles ahead. I think, last night, what we saw here was a large attack by russian Kamikaze Drones and missiles to a long sustained attack overnight since the war began. The buzzing of drones followed by loud explosions often only met by machine gun fire. And what ukraine also needs, of course, is notjust more ammunition, and it is slowly getting that after that delay in us military support, need air defences. That, president zelensky says, is the top priority after what was experienced here last night so clearly, russia is targeting kharkiv city which is ukraines second largest city but i think, at the moment, the fighting is contained to that front, russia has penetrated about five miles across into the Ukrainian Border but they have been met now by ukrainian artillery who do say they have the ammunition for this operation that they need. find ammunition for this operation that the need. � ,. , ammunition for this operation that the need. �. , ~. , they need. And some talk as well from the chief they need. And some talk as well from the chief of they need. And some talk as well from the chief of ukraines they need. And some talk as well from the chief of ukraines army | from the chief of ukraines army about ukrainian troops preparing to defend another area as well. What can you tell us about that . We know that the area can you tell us about that . We know that the area north can you tell us about that . We know that the area north of can you tell us about that . We know that the area north of here can you tell us about that . We know that the area north of here is can you tell us about that . We know that the area north of here is one. That the area north of here is one area where ukraine believes russia could launch another offensive. And, if they did that, it would clearly stretch ukrainian limited defence lines and resources even further, make life much more difficult for them. We know that been some villages in the region which had been cleared, which have been evacuated. Civilians told to leave close to the russian border. It is a concern of ukraines military that President Putins forces could try to launch another assault there. I think most people, most military analysts believe the russian focus is still in the east. The goal is to try to take the whole of the donbas area and they are making advances. They want the city which is a key strategic route for ukrainian supply lines, who are defending that area. But it is really about fixing this operation in kharkiv, i think. Ukrainian forces down, possibly, if there were to be another offensive, that would do the same, and that would expose their fronts as well. We know that reinforcements have been moved from one part of the fund to another here, to make sure that the line holds. But clearly, that means that other areas of the front, 800 mile front, are going to be weaker. 800 mile front, are going to be weaker. On to the situation in gaza now, where the first shipment of humanitarian aid to be sent into the territory via a floating pier has been brought ashore in the last few hours. The uk, which has helped the us to build and operate the pier, says this shipment is expected to provide enough provisions to feed 11,000 people for a month. The structure opens up a new route to get food, shelter and other supplies to around 2. 2 million palestinians inside gaza, but thereve been warnings that the pier is only temporary, and appeals for israel to do more to secure routes to get aid into gaza via land. Israels bombardment of gaza has continued, this the scene at Nuseirat Camp In Central Gaza after a strike earlier today. Meanwhile at the uns top court, the International Court ofjustice in the hague, lawyers acting for israel have been responding to south africas call for an end to Israeli Military action in rafah and across gaza. It is going to make a difference. The Construction Work has been completed this morning and the first Aid Shipments are now coming through that system. It is quite a complicated system. The ships have to dock first come out at sea, a floating platform, said that the bigger Aid Shipments can then be shipped over, transferred and split it down into smaller consignments which are then brought to the shore in the new extended jetty that sticks out into the sea there. We know the first trucks have been brought onto gazas shows this morning and that aid is now being distributed to the palestinians who need it, feel for them to eat or medical supplies to treat them or the sort of materials that they need to shelter because so many hundreds of hundreds of thousands of palestinians are displaced. But the key message is that this will make a contribution. It is a success, it is a moment. But the emphasis from the United States and the United Nations is that they should only supplement and not replace the land which that, traditionally, have been used to bring trucks of aid into gaza. Those land routes that have been restricted, particularly over the past ten days with the closure of the wrapper Border Crossing with egypt. That has put serious strain of aid that has been able to get into gaza and a further desperate circumstances for the palestinians who are already displaced. Many of them fleeing from rafah having already sought sanctuary earlier in this conflict was getting worse and worse that the un is warning that people are desperately heading towards famine if not more aid does not come in. Towards famine if not more aid does not come in towards famine if not more aid does not come in. And to that point about the situation not come in. And to that point about the situation on not come in. And to that point about the situation on those not come in. And to that point about the situation on those land the situation on those land crossings. What is the latest youre hearing about the Israeli Offensive on the ground and what sort of activity has been happening and obviously from hamas as well . Israel sa s its obviously from hamas as well . Israel says its military obviously from hamas as well . Israel says its Military Operations obviously from hamas as well . U i says its Military Operations around rafah limited. It has not performed the all out assault, the offensive that had been warned about and warned against. When Military Activity started there. Has intensified and caused hundreds of thousands of palestinians to three for safety. The un says now more than 600,000 palestinians have left rafah in the past week or that is a huge number of people who had already fled from their homes or other parts of gaza to seek sanctuary in rafah so that is a huge displacement again and leaves people with the challenge of where to actually go for safety, then how to find enough aid to survive. The Military Operation continues in rafah and the israeli say that is necessary because there are still groups of hamas fighters that are holed up in that city, dug into tunnels and fighting back and they are determined to eradicate those hamas units before they declare any sort of end to the military campaign. But whether that will actually happen, when that is achievable, is an enormous question because we know the idf has had to go into other areas further north in gaza that it had already declared and that puts even more palestinian lives at risk. And and that puts even more palestinian lives at risk and johnson. More now on the case at the International Court ofjustice. Where israels lawyers have said biased and false claims relying on hamas sources have been presented to the court. They insisted that israel has acted in accordance with International Law and its humanitarian obligations. South african lawyers had told the court that israel had intended from the start to destroy palestinian life and that palestinians needed protection from genocide. Lets have a listen to israels response. South africa presents the court yet again, for the fourth time within the scope of less than five months, with a picture that is completely divorced from the facts and circumstances. Israel is engaged in a difficult and tragic armed conflict. South africa ignores this factual context, which is essential in order to comprehend the situation and also ignores the applicable Legal Framework of International Humanitarian law. It makes a mockery of the heinous charge of genocide. As israel has previously stated before this court when dealing with the law, facts matter. Truth should matter. Words must retain their meaning. Calling something a genocide again and again does not make it genocide. Repeating a lie does not make it true. Correspondence saying the courts ruling could come by the end of next week, potentially. Now, at this time in the last couple of weeks, weve been giving you updates and bringing you live pictures of Donald Trumps Hush Money Trial in new york. But today, at the former president s request, his trial will be paused and he will be allowed to attend his son barrons high school graduation. But this hasnt been without controversy.

As we are seeing now, court is on hold today and former President Trump is going to be going to his sons graduation. Is not my only though, goma going to the graduation today because in addition to that happening in florida he is also going to be travelling to another part of the country to do a Campaign Event as well.

We are going to see Michael Coburn back in The Stand Again Put A Cross Examination will continue from former President Trumps defence team as they really work hard to sew any kind of doubt in thejury around Michael Cohens credibility. Repeatedly showcasing, in their minds, that he is a liar who has lied, and potentially could be lying again this time around as he says that there is evidence that former President Trump not only knew about this alleged Hush Money Scheme but also was a composite party in this. After that, also was a composite party in this. Afterthat, it also was a composite party in this. After that, it is going to be the defences cans. We will see whether or not they bring any witnesses to the stand and can make that witness less from the defence includes former President Trump, someone that cbs news sources have been telling us that he at least is considering this or talking about this, but it would be highly unlikely for a defendant in a case like this so we will have to wait and see.

It was a bit of a misty, murky start for some of us, but for most places, the sunshine has broken through and theres a lot of dry weather on the cards for the rest of today. This was the picture in freshwater on the Isle Of Wight a little bit earlier on. We can see that cumulus cloud thats bubbling up, and for some places, that willjust spark off one or two showers, but many of us are seeing some dry and sunny weather. Now, to the south of the uk, weve got a couple of nondescript areas of low pressure here, so they are going to throw a little bit of rain our way at times through the course of the weekend. But for the rest of the afternoon, a few showers, particularly so for the west of scotland, the Odd Thundery One here. One or two further south across parts of england and wales, but many of us avoiding them. Temperatures for most of us between 20 to perhaps 23 celsius, warmest across the west of scotland, a little bit colder around this east coast where weve got a little bit of lingering low cloud and fog. Through this evening tonight, well start seeing more of that sea fog rolling in, becoming more extensive for parts of northern, eastern england, down the east coast. Further inland weve got some clearer spells, but there could be some patchy fog almost anywhere to start saturday morning. Fairly mild first thing, weve got those light winds around. Low pressure close to the near continent on saturday morning, though. We can just see this warm front moving through and that could very well bring some outbreaks of rain to parts of kent and sussex, essex, for instance, first thing in the morning. Down towards the channel islands, some of that rain could be quite persistent. Sea fog still lingering for parts of eastern scotland, perhaps northeast england, burning back during the day, but as those showers drift westwards, there could be the odd thunderstorm, perhaps wales and southwest england for instance as well, but any of the showers are fairly hit and miss on saturday. A good deal of dry, settled weather if youve got outdoor plans. Temperatures again a little above average, but always a few degrees cooler close to that northeast coast. Similarly, on sunday, weve got low cloud again moving in from the north sea. Scotland is a little bit cloudy. I think one or two showers, not quite as warm, but for the rest of the uk, any showers are fairly few and far between, so some good spells of blue sky and sunshine, light winds after early mist and fog clears, and top temperatures around 22 celsius, but cooler around that east coast where we keep that low cloud and murk. Head on into monday and tuesday, weve got low pressure starting to dry and approach, so although the next few days relatively dry, it looks like things turn more unsettled from mid week onwards. A touch cooler, but perhaps drier again towards the end of this coming week. Bye bye. A milestone moment markets open flat on wall street after a record breakng day for the dow.
