And nearby hospital were hit. This is the scene of the aftermath. Ukraine's armed forces confirmed soliders at the military institute were among the dead. The country's president volodymyr zelensky said those responsible for the attack would be held accountable. He also renewed his calls to allies for more air defences. The white house condemned the attack and said military assistance would be arriving to ukraine in the coming weeks. Nick beake sent us this report from the scene. The missiles tore through the ukrainian military academy at 9 o'clock this morning, just as lessons were starting, levelling huge parts of the complex and killing dozens instantly. Army medics battle to save the injured. Hold on, he shouts, you're a good lad. Tonight we arrived in a stunned city. The emergency services of poltava could do little more than clear up the wreckage. We met mikita, a cadet, who was inside the training centre when it happened. The second missile hit three seconds after the first, he tells us, i ran outside, there was smoke and dust everywhere. Lots of people were outside having a cigarette, and many of them were killed. Yana, one of the many locals whose windows were smashed. Ukraine has taken a body blow, too. Translation: it's very hard. I take it personally. My husband is fighting on the front line. Soldiers have died here, and i know there are still soldiers under the rubble. Their wives are waiting for them. Then, as we were moving location, another air raid alert blared, and the instant fear of another possible hit here. The air raid sirens have just gone off once again, and so a lot of the emergency services who are inside the building, clearing out the debris have now moved out, even though there are still some people we know underneath the rubble. President zelensky condemned the attack, calling the russians scum and promised to get answers. Translation: i've ordered i a full and prompt investigation into the circumstances of what happened. All necessary services are involved in the rescue operation. I am grateful to everyone who has been saving lives from the very first moments following the strike. President putin had vowed that punishment was on its way after the incursion into russia a month ago. And it seems it arrived today, in seconds, in the deadliest attack on ukraine for a year. Evelyn farkas served as deputy us assistant secretary of defense for russia, ukraine and eurasia from 2012 to 2015. She's now executive director of the mccain institute for international leadership at arizona state university. She spoke to me a short while ago. Evelyn, good to have you with us. What we have seen is the deadliest attack in ukraine this year today. Do you see this as russia trying to ramp up its attacks before the winter? yes, absolutely. And of course, it is also revenge, if you will, because the russians are quite frustrated. The ukrainians have been striking oil depots, they have been striking into russia, and of course they invaded russia and they have been on russian territory for now coming onto a month. So i think the russians are taking revenge and they're trying to do everything they can to cripple ukrainian will and of course the will of all of us supporting ukraine. You mentioned there the operation in kursk and its month anniversary. From what you're seeing, do you think that what is happening thee can end up prolonging this war or in fact bringing it closer to an end, in your opinion? i would think that it would bring it closer to an end but i am not going to say that it is going to come to an end soon, so it is closer than if the ukrainians had not invaded and seized this territory because it gives that had not invaded and seized this territory because it gives the ukrainians some leverage and puts pressure on putin today. Eventually, there will be a peace agreement, eventually the russians will have to give the ukrainians something in order to get their territory back so it has brought a peace agreement closer, i would argue, but of course that also depends on the ukrainians been able to maintain control of this territory. Absolutely and on the homefront president zelensky has said once again today that this makes the case for further weaponry. He has also urged allies to allow those long—range weapons to be used for strikes deeper within russian territory. We know for example washington and berlin have been among those who have said that they are not comfortable with it at this stage. Do you see that line as movable at all? it has to be movable. I do not see the logic. I really do not see the logic. What would russia escalate to do? they are attacking ukrainian civilians, they clearly see no boundaries when it comes to the laws of war, so the ukrainians are well within their right to take out for example there are about 16 russian bases within range of the longer range missiles that we could give ukraine permissions to use against russia, so that would cripple russia's ability to strike of the time they are striking civilians or civilian infrastructure. Again, escalation, i do not see where they would escalate to? we know putin is not going to escalate to nuclear use, especially when it would involve fall back, literally, fall out, if you will, on his own territory. So i do not understand the hesitation frankly on the part of all the governments involved. Coming back to that point. What we're seeing is a non—nuclear country, ukraine, now carrying out an offensive within the territory of russia which is a nuclear country. So how can we be sure that he would not reach that far? because i do not think vladimir putin is that desperate and i do not think the russian elites are that desperate and ultimately the russian military would not obey a command coming from vladimir putin to use nuclear weapons against ukrainians which again would result in harm to russian soldiers, russian civilians, so the logic is not that for me. So the logic is not there for me. Yes, they might be some chance, you cannot rule it out ioo%, but again, the stakes are so high. Every day ukrainians are losing their lives and it is notjust about ukraine and ukrainians, this is really important, we have to hold the line against russia because if russia prevails in ukraine, they will be emboldened to strike against republic of georgia, moldova and frankly ultimately nato countries. One other point i wanted touch on today. There are reports there is a major government reshuffle underway in ukraine. What do you make of that and why now? first of all, there is fatigue. Second of all i think president zelensky is feeling pressure and so he wants to make sure that the people who are working for him are loyal, that they are on their toes. I think ultimately that is probably what is going on but it is hard for me to tell from so far away. Coming back to that point in the discussion we were having about russian president vladimir putin. We heard from the german foreign minister annalena baerbock on x today and she said he must be held accountable. We know he has been in mongolia, a country which is a member of the international criminal court and he has not been arrested despite the fact there is a warrant out for him. Do you ultimately see that future accountability? there has to be. I agree with the german foreign minister. There has to be accountability. If mongolia gets away with thumbing their nose at the icc, which it's a member of, then it is a further strike against international law and accountability and as we know, the russians have already made severe dance in our regime. It is on very shaky ground as it is. It is really important that the international stands up and holds mongolia accountable and ultimately holds vladimir putin accountable. Russian president vladimir putin arrived in mongolia earlier on monday despite warrant the international criminal court issued for the leader's arrest last year. It was his first visit to a country that is required to adhere to the international court's decisison but he's been welcomed at a lavish ceremony in the capital of ulaanbaatar and a spokesperson from the kremlin said it was not concerned that mr putin would be arrested during the visit. Kyiv has condemned mongolia's decision to not arrest the russian leader, accusing it of sharing responsibility for war crimes. Russia has been looking to build a gas pipeline through mongolia to china to increase its fossil fuel exports and compensate for losses of european markets. These due to sanctions. A bbc investigation has found that there's been a rapid rise in israeli settler outposts in the occupied west bank. For over six months, the bbc has been following the activities of settlers living in illegal outposts and support they receive from an israeli state—linked organisation. There's no official number of these settlements recorded but the bbc has established that there are now 196 such outposts with half of them built over the past five years. Bbc eye's emir nader has this report. Here in the occupied west bank, aisha and her husband nabeel say they're being forced from their home. This is the man she's accusing, a settler named moshe sharvit. But moshe sharvit paints a different picture of his presence here. He lives in an unauthorised settlement in the west bank. It's what's known as an outpost, illegal under both israeli and international law. Illegal, but they're rarely removed, and in some cases they're later legalised. And outposts like moshe�*s, which are often farms, give settlers access to huge areas of land. It's outposts like these that are rapidly expanding since the beginning of the war in gaza, and are increasingly linked to violence and the mass expulsion of palestinian families, while pushing israeli settlements deeper into the west bank and taking control over vast swathes of land. Bbc eye investigations has analysed data and verified the location of 196 outposts across the west bank. We found almost half were set up in the last five years. Wejoin aisha and nabeel again as they briefly return home, two months after they were forced to leave. Moshe sharvit, the settler who they say forced them out, appears again. Earlier this year, moshe sharvit was among a number of settlers sanctioned by the uk and the us for violence and intimidation against palestinians in the west bank. We've now discovered how a powerful organisation has supported some of these settlers. The world zionist organisation is over 100 years old and its settlement division is funded by the israeli government. It manages land in the occupied west bank on the state's behalf. It's a body which runs very, very, very big part of a land which had been expropriated by the israeli authorities in the west bank to defend israeli settlements or settlers. Documents obtained by an israeli ngo and analysed by the bbc, show how the settlement division has allocated large areas of land in the occupied west bank to settlers. They forbid the building of any structures, but we found a pattern of settlers who have established their outposts on these lands. Neither the world zionist organisation nor the israeli government responded to our questions. Nor did moshe sharvit, so we went directly to his outpost. We've spoken to a palestinian woman who says you put a gun to her head. It was you, moshe sharvit, who is sanctioned internationally. Will you let the palestinian families return to this area? despite international sanctions on settlers like moshe sharvit, they remain undeterred and increasingly powerful. Emir nader, bbc news.

The defeated in the presidential election in 2021, he has become one of the most formidable challenges to the long—term president who has beenin long—term president who has been in office for nearly a0 years. The us state department told reporters. . . Pope francis has spent his first day injakarta, in indonesia, at the start of an historic and ambitious trip to the asia—pacific region. Indonesia is the world's most populous muslim—majority country and the vatican says the focus of the trip is inter—faith harmony. The pontiff was welcomed to jakarta by refugees and orphaned children, at a reception at the city's papal diplomatic mission. On wednesday, he's due to meet with presidentjoko widodo in the indonesian capital. The 87—year old has reduced his travel in recent years due to health problems, but this twelve—day trip is his longest as pontiff. As well as visiting indonesia, he will also travel to papua new guinea, east timor and singapore. He is set to travel nearly 33,000 kilometres during the trip. And he is scheduled to attend more than a0 events. Our southeast asia correspondent jonathan head is following the indonesia stop of the tour. He's continuing a long—standing policy of the vatican of upholding the best possible relations with a country which in many ways is a model of multifaith tolerance. I mean, indonesia does have the world's largest muslim population but it is not an islamic state. Islam is not the official religion. There are significant minorities, including around 8 million roman catholics and the indonesian modern state has always accepted a place for all faiths and so i think it's always seen, given that it has such a large muslim population, as a sort of showcase of how relations between different faiths can be managed. And in general, most indonesian governments have stuck to the secular origins of the modern country, when it declared independence and made a place for all these religions, and the vatican has kept significant diplomatic representation there. It has been 35 years since the last visit of a pope so this pope, pope francis, visits a very different country from the one that his predecessor, popejohn paul ii, visited back in 1989. At that stage indonesia was still an authoritarian government, the issue of east timor, which is a roman catholic country, caused a lot of friction between the vatican and the then indonesian government. This time around, of course, pope francis will be celebrating the openness of indonesia but that does not mean there are no problems between faiths in indonesia. It is always a sensitive issue managing them. The issue of whether relations in different parts of indonesia between christian and muslim communities have been strained in recent years when we have had the growth of for example of islamic extremism in the region. Those are all factors that the pope will be very conscious of as he goes to these very symbolic big meetings. The one at the istiqlal mosque, the largest mosque in southeast asia, the main mosque injakarta, to highlight valuing these relationships between the different faiths and then a big rally, a big mass to be held in one of the largest stadiums in jakarta to which roman catholics from all over indonesia and many from quite far—flung islands will travel for this probably once—in—a—lifetime trip to see a pope. To some other important news around the world. A former aide to the new york governor kathy hochul has been arrested as being an undisclosed agent of the chinese government. Linda sun continued to work in state government until last year when she was fired when evidence of misconduct came into load. There are calls for an international investigation over the deaths of almost 130 people in an attempted prison break in the democratic republic of congo. 2a people were killed and the rest of the victims were ever crushed or sophisticated. Despite reports of mass casualties, the government initially said that only two people had died. That european union naval mission and the red sea says an operation to salvage a burning oil tank has been called off because it is too dangerous. The greek tanker was left after it was attacked by overseas. It raises fear of an environmental disaster. More for you at the top of the hour, join me then. Bye for now. Hello. A lot brighter out there today than we saw through yesterday, but still enough cloud around to produce some showers here and there, especially across eastern and the far west of the country. But overall a much better day than we saw through yesterday. Showers this afternoon mainly will be across parts of east anglia, the southeast, the odd sharp one, still humid here and some across western scotland, northern ireland, though western parts of northern ireland will continue to brighten up. Eastern scotland, northern england, western parts of england and also wales, many places actually dry through this afternoon and with just light winds it will still feel quite pleasant out there, even though we have got fresher air pushing into how we had at the weekend. The most humid air still across east anglia and the southeast. Any lengthier, brighter breaks here, we could see temperatures between 2a and 26 degrees. Now into this evening and overnight. Some showers continue to filter across the country in batches, particularly later on in northern ireland and southwest scotland. But for southern scotland and the north east of england, where we could see some clearer skies, here the lowest of the temperatures into tomorrow morning, maybe down to around a or 5 degrees. Not quite as humid as last night either across some southern and eastern parts of england. But where we've got the coolest of the weather to begin with, the best of the sunshine, enjoy the morning sunshine because there's going to be more showers cropping up as we go through the day. East anglia, south east again and more widely across southern scotland, northern ireland, wales and western england in particular. Temperatures also continue to drop that little bit more as well. Tomorrow, around 15 to 20 degrees, the highs, if anything a nudge down where you want early september. Beyond that, it looks increasingly light now. We'll see low pressure develop to the south of us, across france through the second half of the week, strengthening these easterly winds, bringing rain across southern half of the uk, but also introducing, reintroducing, i should say, more in the way of humid air. And you'll see temperatures creep up as we head towards the weekend. Not quite there on thursday. Thursday is almost the transition day. Outbreaks of rain across england and wales, heaviest towards central and southern areas. Does look like scotland, northern ireland, savejust one or two showers, will be largely dry. Best of brightness in the north west, and temperatures actually creeping up here compared with what we've seen during the next couple of days. But as we go towards the end of the week, whilst rain continues on and off across southernmost parts, it does look like we will see increasing amounts of sunshine to the north and west. And as you can see in oban, enniskillen and manchester, temperatures rising too in the low to mid 20s. Take care. Voiceover: this is bbc news. We'll have the headlines for you at the top of the hour, which is straight after this programme. Hi, i'm ros atkins with this week's edition of the media show. We're going to talk about the messaging app telegram after its founder was arrested close to paris. We'll also bejoined by the editor of the satirical website in the us, the onion, which is relaunching its print edition. And we'll hear about a blockbuster game which has been made in china. Let's start by talking about the messaging app telegram, because its founder and its ceo, pavel durov, has been arrested close to paris — and we're going to explore the implications notjust for him and for telegram, but for many of the biggest tech platforms in the world. To do that, let's begin with mike isaac, tech
