As a ukrainian journalist, ive been following russias full scale invasion from day one. When moscow took the area around the Southern City of Nova Kakhovka, i realised it could become a flash point. The city is close to a key reservoir and europes Largest Nuclear power station. Live from london, this is bbc news. Dozens of towns and villages are flooded in ukraine after a major dam is breached. Lets go live now to kyiv, speak to bbc ukrainian s viktoriia zhuhan, whos there. For today, we understand from ukrainian authorities that about 16,000 residents on the banks of ukraine controlled areas are in immediate critical danger.

The netherlands a target of 323, which theyve never managed in a 50 over game. And the dutch found themselves penned in by the new zealand bowlers, santner leading the way. The men in orange had to hit out, but when they did, it backfired, thanks to the Juggling Skills of a relieved trent boult. Santner says he didnt bowl that well, but if you take five wickets for 59 runs, youre a hit with your team mates. The netherlands finally ran out of batters three and a half overs before the end, a 99 run victory for a dominant new zealand. Disappointment for the dutch and new zealand very happy with that win, but not getting carried away at this early stage. We knew that, you know, turning up we knew that, you know, turning up today honestly after the highs of beating england, we couldnt get too complacent. We know the netherlands are a good team, and they almost went pretty, you know, touched pakistan the other day, so it was honestly nice to you know, get the w tonight, its another two point

Or tanks fired on a group of 20 civilians. This is the scene live in gaza. Well bring you the very latest from both sides of the border. Hello. Youre watching bbc news. The conflict between israel and the hamas is intensifying, as it enters its fourth day. All indications seem to be that both sides are preparing for a long, and deadly struggle. This footage was released by israels military, showing their attacks on the gaza strip. Buildings have been levelled and others have been destroyed to the point they will probably have or the torn down. They claim to have hit 200 hamas targets overnight. Israel has ordered a total seige to cut off food, water, and supplies to gaza, prompting criticism from the un chief Antonio Gutterres and calls for a humanitarian corridor to be set up. Almost 195,000 people have been displaced. And half a million are unable to get food rations. Israel says its secured control of its border fence with gaza. And has recovered the bodies of 1,500 hamas militants

We are in deep pain when we are actually still counting the number of casualties. We are not even burying the dead yet. The numbers are beyond imagination. We are talking about almost 800 people who were killed, massacred. The barbaric terrorists went into the villages, communities and during a morning of a quiet holiday, they committed a horrible massacre. And today, we actually seeing those pictures and we are in deep pain. At the same time, we are regrouping. We realise that we have no other choice but to defend ourselves and we are getting ready, getting ready to fight back, to stand up strong, to fight back evil. Thats exactly what will happen in the next few days. We will continue to support the families. Until today, we dont know the exact number of people who were kidnapped into gaza. And im not talking about soldiers
