that's as scotland becomes the last place in the uk to remove the legal requirement people to wear face—masks in indoor public spaces. more than 60 people still missing after deadly floods in south africa. rescuers are continuing to sift through the rubble in kwazulu—natal. the british home secretary defends her plan to send some asylum seekers to rwanda after criticism that it is unethical. our top story this our... russia has redoubled its pounding of ukraine targets, including a missile attack on the western ukrainian city of lviv. the latest reports say six people have been killed, and eight wounded, in a city which until now has largely escaped unscathed since the russian invasion. residents spoke of hearing five explosions on the outskirts of the city and smoke was seen rising from residential areas. overnight there's been an apparent intensification of the russian bombardment with multiple targets across ukraine targeted by air strikes and shelling. five people have reportedly been killed and 13 injured in shelling of the city of kharkiv. while in mykolaiv, near the port of odesa, the governor reports continuous rocket attacks. of the shattered city of mariupol, ukraine's foreign minister has said: and today, the government of ukraine's eastern luhansk region has said that four civilians trying to escape the town of kreminna have been shot dead by russian forces. well, for the second consecutive day, ukrainian officials say there are no humanitarian corridors agreed for today to help people move out of devastated areas. our correspondent danjohnson is in the western town of lviv, where many ukrainians had been fleeing in the hope of safety, but in the last few hours the city came under attack. dan went to one of the places that was hit. this is where one of the missiles hit this morning. the authorities tell us that it is a tyre—fitting garage, a place that looks after people's cars. they say this is not a military target whatsoever, but they have said three other military facilities were hit in this morning's air raid. it was about ten to eight when we heard the air raid sirens sound once again. there have been more air raids in the last few days, more alerts, but then it was about 30 or a0 minutes after the sirens that i heard the sound of something like jets overhead. it's not clear if the strikes were launched from fighterjets or if they were missiles launched from outside ukraine but i actually saw a couple of the missiles myself, streaking across the sky and then hitting buildings on the city's roof line, and then we saw the black plumes of smoke rising up. i actually counted five explosions myself, even though the city's officials are saying that there were four missile strikes that there were four missile strikes. and this is the sort of thing the emergency services are still having to deal with. the fire fighters here trying to put out the fire, and they say that six people have died. we're not sure if they were all here, but that number includes city officials say one child, and eight people have been wounded. but as the emergency response continues, it's possible that the number of injured or indeed dead may rise even further. and this fits a pattern of repeated attacks that we've seen on ukrainian cities over the last three or four days. renewed russian attacks, they said in response to ukraine targeting villages in russia. that's something that ukraine denies. but what has happened here in lviv this morning has certainly underlined to people in this city the nature of the threat. we're hundreds of miles here from the fighting in the east, but still it shows what the level of damage can be and the fact that people can get caught up in these attacks. let's look at the situation in mariupol, our correspondent sean dilley reports. mariupol has not yet fallen — technically. ukrainian troops, who had until recently defended the now—occupied streets, are held up in the city's vast azovstal steelworks, despite an ultimatum by president putin's forces to surrender no later than yesterday. russian troops know that ukrainians are waiting inside, ready to welcome them with guerrilla tactics in their last stand for the strategic port city. as the rockets continue to fall across the country, a parallel information war rages. this unverified picture of the russian black sea flagship the moskva — which sank on thursday — was posted online. ukraine claimed they struck it with two neptune missiles. russia insisted it had nothing to do with their enemy, and that a fire caused an explosion that would eventually cause it to capsize while being towed to port. meanwhile, shelling continues across the country, with president putin's forces intensifying activities in the east. in kharkiv, ukrainian health officials say five people were killed and 13 injured after russian forces shelled buildings in the centre of the city. translation: you know| when a dog hears a bang, it starts to tremble all over — even if the noise is far away? i'm like that now. everything — every part of me — is trembling. authorities in mykolaiv say shelling has been unyielding. rockets fell one after the other as ukrainian forces tried to block russia's attempts to advance on nearby odesa. translation: we are doing. everything to ensure defence. we're in constant contact with partners. we are grateful to those who really help with everything they can. but those who have the weapons and ammunition we need and delay their provision must know that the fate of this battle also depends on them, the fate of the people who can be saved. explosions the country's leadership is bracing itself for more attacks today, but talks have already started on what happens when the shelling stops. ukraine's president volodymyr zelensky has spoken to the head of the international monetary fund — it's expected the country will ask the imf and g7 countries for $50 billion to help it rebuild. but the reality is, no reconstruction work is possible until the conflict ends. sean dilley, bbc news. with me now is our correspondent anna foster who's in kyiv. a few weeks ago, you were in the city of lviv where we have just seen dan johnson city of lviv where we have just seen danjohnson reporting from, and he was saying it is hundreds of miles from the bulk of the fighting in the east, but i guess with this new attack, stripping away of the relative safety that people may have felt there? ~ . , felt there? what i find interesting actuall , felt there? what i find interesting actually. so

i find interesting actually, so the last attack in - felt there? what i find interesting actually, so the last attack in lviv| actually, so the last attack in lviv was about three and a half weeks ago now and i was struck at the time by 24 now and i was struck at the time by 2a hours after we saw those similar plumes of black smoke on the skyline that people were back out in lviv the very next day. it was a beautiful sunny day, people back out on the streets continuing their lives as normal. it's been nearly a month now since they had a strike in lviv. from the governor and they say the death toll has risen to seven people now including one child and that ten people were injured. they say the site you saw dan at, the car repair shop was targeted, and military facilities as well. when russia goes to places like lviv it is very much with the intention of disrupting the supply chain. we have heard repeatedly from president zelensky and others that what ukraine needs now is more weapons, more ammunition. they need to keep bringing the stocks back in and a lot of those come from the west over the polish border, so in many ways it is russia reminding people wherever they are in this country that they are prepared to attack, prepared to disrupt supply routes and supply lines, even in areas a long way away from the fiercest of fighting. long way away from the fiercest of fi . htinu. �* . , long way away from the fiercest of fiuuhtin. �* . , ., fighting. and the fiercest of fi . htin: fighting. and the fiercest of fighting certainly _ fighting. and the fiercest of fighting certainly in - fighting. and the fiercest of fighting certainly in the - fighting. and the fiercest of fighting certainly in the city| fighting. and the fiercest of l fighting certainly in the city of mariupol in the east, and the other side of the country from lviv. and we are just hearing the foreign minister, that very vivid description from him of a city where there pretty much isn't anything left of it after weeks of russian bombardment. 0n left of it after weeks of russian bombardment. on that race to resupply, why is it so important for strategic areas like that? and is there any sense that the ukrainians will get their hands on enough equipment and military supplies to be able to mount a serious fightback in that part the country? that be able to mount a serious fightback in that part the country?— in that part the country? that is a ve aood in that part the country? that is a very good question. _ in that part the country? that is a very good question. when - in that part the country? that is a very good question. when it - in that part the country? that is a i very good question. when it comes in that part the country? that is a - very good question. when it comes to mariupol, i think at this stage it would be very difficult. we have heard reports, often very difficult to verify, that the few ukrainian troops remaining there are running short of things like ammunition. in terms of getting into that city which has been encircled and besieged for weeks, some sort of resupply mission would be very difficult and very dangerous. certainly the reports from the last few days have been that mariupol has been largely in russian hands, that it is desperate to take that strategically important city which would give it a connection between russia and annexed crimea. whilst that fighting continues, the ukrainians say they will continue digging in. russia opened what they described as a surrender window yesterday, they said if the remaining ukrainian forces chose to surrender, then the russians would let them leave alive. at that window came and went again, and everything we heard from the ukrainian government and military was that those remaining fighters in mariupol would stay and continue to defend the city until the end.— the city until the end. anna foster in k iv, the city until the end. anna foster in kyiv. thank— the city until the end. anna foster in kyiv, thank you _ the city until the end. anna foster in kyiv, thank you very _ the city until the end. anna foster in kyiv, thank you very much. - russia is saying this morning that 315 targets in ukraine were hit by artillery over night and that some of its air strikes destroyed weapons depots. 0ur correspondentjenny hill is in moscow with more details about the claims. this has come from the russian ministry of defence. they say 315 targets were struck overnight across the country. but actually, when you look at the details, we're talking about things like ammunition plants, personnel areas they say and all sorts of other "military objects" they call them. but they are all in the south and east of the country. there is no mention of any strikes on lviv or around lviv, so we don't have details about what the targets actually were in lviv this morning. at the moment, the military here very much officially sticking to the script that they are only really targeting the south and east of the country. that is of course what russians are being told. with regards to mariupol, one newspaper commentator this morning has said that the destruction and defeat of the enemy there is already a done deal. they are talking very bullishly about what is happening in mariupol and very confident about taking the whole area, the whole city. that is the picture that russians are given. the ministry of defence's update is one of a couple, sometimes several, that we get every day, and they are always upbeat and always talk about the progress the russian troops are making. the picture the russian people are given — have they been told about the loss of another general, general frolov? also we're hearing some reports about the loss of the flagship moskva, that russian people are starting to ask more about that? yes, nothing here about the reported death of this general, as you would expect. the moskva is an interesting topic because my colleague steve rosenberg yesterday noted that during a three—hour—long news programme, just 30 seconds was devoted to the loss of this flagship, the pride of the black sea fleet. 0n social media and in one newspaper, which is no longer being published in russia but it is a russian anti—kremlin or critical voice of the kremlin newspaper published in europe now, there are some reports circulating from relatives of some of the men on board. they say either that their sons are missing, or they have been told they have been killed, or in the case of one woman, her son has reportedly told her that a0 of his crewmates were killed. even when you look at the russian official account of what happened, they still say that there was a fire on board, ammunition caught fire and that caused damage to the hull of the ship, which then sank in stormy seas as it was being towed back to port. even if you just take that, it's hard to imagine that there wasn't any kind of loss of life or injury. but that's not what the russians are officially saying. they say everyone on that vessel was ta ken off to safety. the authorities in the chinese city of shanghai have reported the first covid deaths since 2020. official figures show three people died on sunday. according to beijing, all had underlying health conditions. the following images show residents entering a bus, believed to be headed to a quarantine facility. the city's strict new lockdown has seen complaints from residents of forcable evictions from their homes to such facilities, as well as food shortages amongst those not allowed to leave their homes. 0ur china correspondent stephen mcdonell has the latest. well, obviously the question of what causes death is a complicated one and in this case, officials are saying that all three people who died from covid also had underlying health problems. but there have been questions, i mean, a lot of people asking, with a00,000, over 400,000 official coronavirus infections in this outbreak in shanghai, and until today, there had been no official death. and many people have been asking, how can that be? but if you look at these three cases, two women aged 89 and 91, and a man aged 91, we are told none of them had been vaccinated and, as i say, they all had underlying health problems. but this question of vaccination is interesting because some new figures have come out, and it does seem to show that china really has dropped the ball when it comes to booster shots. so take those in shanghai over the age of 60. we have... 62% have had their third shot. but when you go to the booster shots, it is only 38% of people over the age of 60. well, a lot of health professionals are going to say that's not enough, it needs to be much higher. and so some have been asking why the government is still pursuing this strategy of mass isolation, mass testing, closing down cities, in shanghai locking down 25 million people, instead of pursuing the core problem at this stage which is the lack of booster shots. stephen mcdonell in beijing. people in scotland no longer need to wearface masks in indoor public places from today. it's the final part of the uk to remove the legal requirement, which has been replaced by public health advice. the scottish government has advised people to continue wearing face coverings while covid case numbers remain high. but the relaxing of restrictions has been overshadowed after police in scotland said they are assessing a complaint about the first minister — nicola sturgeon — not wearing a face covering. video footage on social media appears to show ms sturgeon was without a mask inside a barbers, despite it being a legal requirement at the time. the snp said she realised within a few seconds and put herface covering on. earlier i spoke to our news correspondentjamie mcivor, who gave us the latest. at the weekend, pictures emerged on social media of the first minister visiting a barber's shop on friday as part of her local election campaigning. now, in the picture on social media, she didn't have a mask on. now, the snp say that she very quickly realised her mistake. and she did put a mask on after that. indeed, in the pictures the party tweeted itself earlier on in the weekend, she did have a mask on. but the scottish conservatives are arguing that this is hypocrisy. the party had long been arguing that the time was passed in scotland when legal guidance, when the actual law on wearing a face mask should have become simple public health guidance. very interesting to reflect on the fact that, had she done the same thing today and not put a mask on for a few seconds, then now things are about guidance rather than the law, it wouldn't have been an issue. it's not partygate, but certainly it is a very interesting discussion to be having in scotland. it's certainly the focus of a lot of political attention. and broadly, then, what's the public reaction, jamie, to the fact that scotland now joins the rest of the uk in no longer needing to wear face masks in indoor public places? of course, it's a very significant day after nearly two years where there's been the law on face masks. the very interesting thing, though, is to look at whether we will see any significant change in public behaviour in scotland over the next few days, or whether it might be a more subtle and gradual thing. certainly looking around glasgow city centre this morning, on the glasgow underground many people were still wearing a face mask, but if you were to go into some shops and cafes, it was noticeable that more people weren't wearing a mask than you might have seen last week. now, one thing behavioural psychologists would tell you is that some people may be waiting to see what other people do and then perhaps ape that behaviour. it's going to be interesting to watch in the coming few days. the british prime minister, borisjohnson, faces another tough week. he's due to answer questions in parliament tomorrow about breaches of lockdown rules. a row also continues over plans for the uk to send some people who arrive in the uk illegally to rwanda. today the home secretary, priti patel, has said that critics of the plan have failed to offer solutions. ione wells is our political correspondent. earlier, she told me what we could expect over the next few days. tomorrow is really the first time mps will have a chance to question him directly since the prime minister and the chancellor were fined last week for breaches of covid regulations, this was involving a particular event where the prime minister gathered in the cabinet room with some colleagues, where they wished him happy birthday. the prime minister is due to update mps in the house of commons tomorrow but also conservative mps tomorrow evening as well before facing the usual prime minister's questions on wednesday. 0pposition parties strongly believe he misled parliament in the past, when he had previously said that no covid rules were broken and number 10 followed the guidance at all times. number 10's argument so far, the prime minister has apologised for what happened since his fine. however, he has said he was not aware that what was going on in that particular event was in breach of the rules, gathering with people he knew before a work meeting. that is a defence i think we are likely to hear a bit more of from the prime minister as well. something else in the news over the weekend, which is potentially something he will face questions on, the sunday times reported that at one event in november 2020, a leaving do for his former director of communications, lee cain, the prime minister was pouring people drinks which labour have said demonstrate he was instigating them. this is something number 10 deny — they don't deny the event took place but they strongly deny he was there, instigating events, pointing to the fact that in these reports it suggests alcohol was already on the table. let's talk about rwanda as well, and the home secretary priti patel has been offering a rebuttal of some of the criticism of this policy of sending people trying to claim asylum to rwanda for their claims to be processed. that's right, this new policy of the government's to send some asylum seekers to rwanda to seek asylum there, rather than in the uk, has faced some criticism including from the archbishop of canterbury just yesterday in his easter sunday sermon. in response, priti patel has written in the times today, calling the scheme an innovative way to try and stop criminal gangs from smuggling people across the channel, which is really the home office's strong defence of this policy. they argue that this would try and disrupt the business model of some of the gangs trying to get people across the channel because anyone entering via migrant boats or lorries across the channel could face being sent to rwanda. as i say, there has been some criticism, though, people saying this is subcontracting the uk's responsibilities. some further pressure built over the weekend on priti patel after it emerged that her own top civil servant had told her before the policy was announced that there was not sufficient evidence to suggest it would deter migrants from making the crossing. i think priti patel has decided to plough ahead with the policy and stand by it. whether or not it works in deterring people from making that dangerous crossing is yet to be seen. that is certainly something she is willing to take responsiblity for. south africa is deploying 10,000 soldiers to help in kwazulu—natal province, where flooding and mudslides over the last week have killed a43 people and caused widespread damage to infrastructure. 63 people are still missing. some areas haven t had any official help yet, leaving residents to dig through the debris themselves. 0ur correspondent vumani mkhize has this report. at the kwa—santi township south of durban, this community is still trying to come to terms with the flash floods that devastated this area. this search and rescue team is on a recovery operation. they are looking for a woman swept away by the flash floods at night while she was asleep. behind me, this is where the water was cascading down this hill. unfortunately, a man and woman were swept away by the raging waters. the man was found alive. unfortunately, the woman is still missing and we have got community members here searching with their bare hands looking for her. further downstream, we have got search and rescue operations with dogs also looking for the woman. 0n the night of the floods, some even risked their lives to save others. translation: | found | a man trapped by a tree, so i managed to pull him out of the water. i put him inside the house. i heard

economic crisis since independence in 19118. you are watching bbc news. hello again. we had the warmest day of this year so far on good friday when the temperature in london reached 23.1; celsius. today, it's going to be cooler. there's a few showers around. but equally, there's some sunshine. we have got two weather fronts moving in the direction of the north sea. they're all wrapped around this area of low pressure, which later will bring us more persistent rain across the north west, accompanied by strong winds. here are our two weather fronts. here's the first one and here is the second one. and as they move away, we're going to see a mixture of sunshine and showers, some bright spells, but don't forget the more persistent rain and the stronger winds coming into the north west, where we are looking at highs of 10 degrees. in lighter winds further south, 14—17 will feel quite pleasant. but if you have an allergy to tree pollen, worth noting that the levels across the east and the south of england today are high. through this evening and overnight, many but not all of the showers will fade. there will be areas of cloud, we will have clear skies, a few mist and fog patches forming, and a weather front continuing to bring cloud and rain across north—west scotland, just getting into northern ireland. it will be cold enough in parts of scotland and northern ireland for the temperature to fall as low as freezing. tomorrow, then, here is the same weather front bringing some showery outbreaks of rain. we've got low pressure to the north of us. the weather front bringing in the rain notjust to scotland but also northern ireland. but we're not talking about heavy rain. at times, there will be more cloud across england and wales but some breaks in the cloud and a little bit of sunshine coming through, and a few showers. the best of the sunshine on the west coast. temperatures down a touch on today. into wednesday, a largely dry day for most of us. again, you can see we are looking at some areas of cloud, one or two showers out to the west. these weather fronts coming in from the atlantic, not making huge progress, bringing in a wee bit more cloud to the west of northern ireland at times, and temperatures between 9—18 degrees. as we head into the latter part of the week, the low pressure in the north sinks southwards, taking its weather fronts with it. we have more of an easterly wind across our shores as we go through wednesday, thursday and into friday, and a noticeable wind at that. so that basically means if you are on the east coast, the north sea coastline, it will feel cooler than in the west where we will have the higher temperatures. we could get up to 18 in cardiff. when i came in this factory, i was absolutely gobsmacked at what everyone was doing, how loud it was, it was crazy. it's nice when you see the finished product coming off the line. you see celebrities in them and you think we've made them. i've been here about nearly 41 years.
