A painful long running conflict, more recently a clampdown on democratic rights. Journalists who can bring out peoples voices and the grim realities say they are being silenced by the government. This kashmiri reporter pictured here at one of his court hearings. He has been injailforfive years charged under terror laws. His father, mohammed, says his son was targeted for this article he wrote about an anti india militant.

But on the day of his release, no charges were brought.

And other formats of interaction with both the military and society as a whole. Meanwhile, ukraines generals are reporting significant progress in the counteroffensive against russias invasion. They say their troops have breached the first line of russian defences in the south near zaporizhzhia. The generals said extensive minefields had blocked troops for several weeks, leaving them vulnerable to russian shelling and drone attacks. But they say that painstaking Mine Clearance has now allowed the forces to advance, and they expect to face far weaker russian defences ahead. Ukraine says its forces are making gains in the south of the country, and has, in recent weeks, expanded its units towards the strategic town of tokmak, a Logistical Centre for russian forces. Live now to yuriy sak, an advisor to ukraines defence minister. He joins us from kyiv. Good to talk to you again. Let us first of all talk about the change of the defence minister, Oleksii Reznikov is going. Is it time for new
And it is important once it had that that the government acted on it i as swiftly as possible. Of course i know thei timing is frustrating. But i want to give people a sense of the scale of what we are grappling with here. There are around 22,000 schools. In england and the important thing to know is we are expecting 95 of those schools will not be impacted by this, i around 50 schools have already been mitigated. Another 100 are in the process of being so. 0ur Expectation is in a matter of weeks the bulk of the remaining schools that will have this issue will be identified as well. Also an important context to know is that in many cases this could be limited to a single classroom i for example, so people should have a sense of scale of what might be happening as well. Earlier, a former top Civil Servant at the Department For Education accused mr sunak and the uk treasury of refusing to fund School Repairs adequately, despite being warned that lives were at risk from crumbling concrete
