Our integrated review anticipated this and talked about the increasing competition from state based threats and identified these things, but as i said, what is new is the pace and intensity of where we arent seeing these threats emerge, and i commend to everyone the Chatham House speech which talked about this as well where we are seeing these threats. Asjens stoltenberg highlighted, the interconnectedness when you have state supporting each other and working together, that is what we have to recognise has changed. That is why it is important we make the investment and make it now and i believe it is the right thing to do. What was your second question . Inaudible that is the main thing, but the one thing i would point out, because we have been talking a lot about it, we should approach the question from a position of strength and confidence. Ukraine is a good example of that. If you think back a couple of years, and im sure this would be echoed by jens, Special Operation undertook by
I will come back to you. Lets go to rwanda, our correspondent is there for us and we have had several people asking that question, is rwanda a safe country . I would say that depends on who you are asking and what exactly you mean. It is safe in terms of crime, the statistics show it has a very high safe index, high on the indices of crime safety for crime and that is something that the government often talks about, we are the safest country in the world. I think that is not so far from the truth. As you head the Supreme Court in britain had some concerns about safety for refugees and the thing is the concern is Asylum Seekers could be deported from the country they had fled, especially if applications in rwanda were rejected. That is something they have worked on through this treaty signed in december which basically says thats not going to happen. If your Asylum Application is rejected you can stay in the country, there are resident permits, arrangements for you. That is something th
Theyre letting off firecrackers to try and keep the police away from them, but the police are moving in. Theyre trying to stop them from getting to the water. Lets go ahead and see what we can see. You can see the smugglers here. Some of them have sticks. Theyre trying to protect the migrants as they head towards the sea. But speak to our correspondent ali price who is in dover and england. Talk us through what happened. This is a tra. Ic tale from that rather dramatic reporting from andrew, he didnt know at the time what was about to unfold. We understand this boat got into trouble off the coast, just ate few dozen metres off the of northern france, that the Boat Hit A Sand Bank and was refloated, and at that point the passengers on the boat had moved and some had fallen out and a numberfell into the moved and some had fallen out and a number fell into the sea.

Through the first line of russian defences. Our security correspondent Frank Gardner has been working with the bbc verify team to determine whether ukraine is making any significant process. Ukraines big Counter Offensive in the south is making progress, but how far have their troops really got and can they break through russias defences to turn the tide of this war . Lets just remind ourselves. The Dark Red Area is the area occupied by Russian Forces. The purple area is ground that the ukrainians have recaptured. The russian defences consist of two major lines, each composed of several interlocking obstacles trenches, anti tank devices, minefields, all covered by artillery. The ukrainians have had to spend most of the last three months picking their way through minefields like this one. You can see the hidden mines circled in red here. And theyre doing this on foot, sometimes at night, often underfire, hence the slow progress to date. Theyre also having to find their way through obsta
