hello and welcome. president volodymyr zelenskyy has denied russia's claims that mariupol had been captured: he said the city was continuing to resist russian forces. in his latest address to the

regions under occupation. translation: i urge the residents _ translation: i urge the residents of _ translation: i urge the residents of the - translation: i urge the residents of the southern

following russia's invasion of the country. he said that will rise further as the conflict continues and the early estimate of damages does not include the growing economic costs of the war to ukraine. in a virtual address to a world bank forum, president zelenskyy said ukraine needs seven billion dollars a month to make up for losses caused by russia. we'll have much more on the impact of the war in ukraine on the global economy in our business programme in about 25 minutes. portuguese authorities say they have an official suspect over the disappearance of british toddler madeleine

after becoming the first ever british prime minister to be subject to an inquiry over whether he deliberately misled parliament. mrjohnson's currently in india for a meeting with his indian counterpart narendra modi. our political correspondent helen catt has more. boris johnson's visit borisjohnson's visit gujarat to wasn't the first, but another prime ministerial first back home, which dominated the day. the commons agreed that mr johnson should face an enquiry into whether he deliberately misled parliament in what he said about downing street parties. it will start after the police finished their investigation into the parties themselves. mrjohnson spoke to themselves. mrjohnson spoke to the bbc before the motion was carried. i don't want to have any absence of scrutiny, and i mean this humbly and sincerely. if the opposition want to focus on this, and to talk about this a lot more, that is fine, but i think we should wait until the conclusion of the enquiry, but i want to focus on the staff that really matters to the future of the country. the government _ future of the country. the government had - future of the country. the government had first - future of the country. the government had first put forward a plan to get its mps to vote to delay a decision on the enquiry, and then it dropped it, a suggestion it could not be sure of enough support from conservatives. tory mps were clearly too embarrassed to back the prime minister today, embarrassed to back the prime ministertoday, but embarrassed to back the prime minister today, but i'm afraid they are too weak to sack him. and i think that is what we need — we need the prime minister gone. some tory mps are standing by their leader. i think where we have reached todayis i think where we have reached today is a good place, it is positive that we know that the end is inside, but it also gives us the opportunity to move on and focus on again the priorities of country cares about. but others have become public critics. the opposition sensed a ship behind the scenes. i think the political mood changed today, and you could feel it in the house of commons, with lots of mps, i think, thinking today, "i'm not any longer going to go on defending the indefensible." borisjohnson has said he wants to focus on things that are important to the future of the uk. some have said partygate means he simply can't. the some have said partygate means he simply can't-— he simply can't. the two key thins he simply can't. the two key things are — he simply can't. the two key things are ukraine _ he simply can't. the two key things are ukraine and - he simply can't. the two key things are ukraine and the i he simply can't. the two key i things are ukraine and the cost of living crisis, and, again, i am proud of the fact that there is a cross—party consensus, that we stand up against putin, that we stand up against putin, that we stand up against putin, that we defend our friends in ukraine, but the prime minister is a distraction, he is a problem. he is in india tonight, and yet all the media are talking about is what is happening to his leadership. borisjohnson will meet the indian prime minister narendra modi later to discuss defence and security collaboration. back home, it is the security of his own position that could be in question. we will be looking more into that in about 20 minutes. bbc investigation has discovered that thousands of german nationals have migrated to paraguay, in the last 12 months, to escape covid restrictions and vaccinations in europe. but the pandemic is not the only thing driving this new surge to south america. as bbc mundo's mar pichel has been finding out, on the banks of the river, united colonies, german settlements first established more than 100 years ago. but, in recent months, government regulations in europe have created a resurgence in immigration. it means, " feel like it means, "feel like you are at home," and for thousands of germans who have arrived here in recent months, this really is home now. but, the local mayor says many of the newcomers have worrying misconceptions about paraguay. but, it's not just but, it's notjust the pandemic driving this new wave of immigration. since 2015, around 1.5 million migrants and refugees have settled in germany. many of whom practice islam. hana helps fellow german settle in paraguay. she didn't want to show herface on in paraguay. she didn't want to show her face on camera. but that is a strong accusation. do you have, or do they have any evidence of that? paraguay has a long history of receiving immigrants. people here say the immigrants are welcome, but any sort of prejudice is not, it isjust un—paraguayan. mar pichel, bbc news. stay with us on

the former pakistani prime minister, imran khan — ousted from office earlier this month — has been holding large rallies across the country, refusing to accept the new government that has been formed and demanding fresh elections. he's alleged he's the victim of an american led conspiracy — a claim ridiculed by his opponents. secunder kermani reports from lahore. imran khan may no longer be the prime minister here but he is still able to draw out big crowds. he has been repeating his allegation that he was ousted as the result of a us led conspiracy, targeting him, he says, because of his foreign policy decisions, including a recent trip to moscow. and in doing so, he is really tapping into a reservoir of popular anti—western sentiment here. why is america so concerned that we are having a good relation with russia and china? that is the main thing which is threatening america. they used to think that because they had slaves, they would suffer with america. translation: who has brought these politicians together - on the same page? they never used to even sit together? it has been done by america and foreign powers. the us officials imran khan's opponents he had dismissed those allegations, most independent analysts i have spoken to do not believe them either. they say imran khan is deliberately, they believe, exaggerating the contents of a diplomatic cable sent by the pakistani ambassador in washington which may contain very blunt, perhaps aggressive, language but is not, they say, evidence of a conspiracy. instead, they say imran khan fell out with his former life, instead, they say imran khan fell out with his former ally, pakistan's powerful military, and that is what has led to his downfall. the new government here would have cost deny allegations made by imran khan and his supporters that they are corrupt, and they are hoping that this momentum but imran khan is trying to build up will peter out. he is calling this this holding top let's take a

the balkans we have had many wars in recent history and ordinary people suffer the most however i cannot support the decision of wimbledon, i think it's crazy. players, tennis players, sportspeople

hello. our weather's going to be pretty settled over the next few days. it's fairly quiet out there right now and not much change on the way for friday. one thing that we will notice is that cool breeze strengthening day by day, particularly noticeable on the north sea coast, and this often happens when we have high pressure close to iceland there over the norwegian sea, low pressure to the south, and that basically shunts quite a strong airstream from scandinavia across the north sea and cuts through the uk. particularly chilly on those north sea coasts. it'll also drag in some cloud, some moisture, particularly to central and eastern parts of england, so a slow grey, breezy, chilly start to the day here, whereas out towards the west, there'll be sunshine. also, a few showers developing anywhere from london into the south midlands, southern wales, maybe salisbury plain, perhaps the west country, but elsewhere, it should be sunny. so, cold on the north sea. into the south midlands, southern wales, maybe salisbury plain, perhaps the west country, but elsewhere, it should be sunny. so, cold on the north sea. on the actual coast, it could be 10 degrees, but warmer spots, maybe south—western parts of scotland, perhaps as high as 19, most of us somewhere in between. also worth noting — the tree pollen levels will be generally moderate to high on friday. so, the weekend, then, that pattern continues, so the high across the north, low pressure to the south. we can see the rain across spain and france, so the bad weather's to the south of us, but we still have that strong breeze and, again, a few showers. perhaps a little more widespread maybe, spreading into northern parts of england during the course of saturday. again, chilly on the north sea coast, maybe 12 in newcastle, typically 16 there in plymouth and not far off that in belfast as well. here's sunday's weather forecast — more of the same — cold wind out of the north sea and all the bad weather staying way to the south of us and similar temperatures, perhaps not even making double figures there in aberdeen. so, let's have a look at the outlook into monday. slight change in the wind direction, so you can see the high pressure builds down again across the uk, the wind switches direction — it will be more of a northerly. so, temperatures will actually drop as we go through the course of next week, maybe making around 10, 11, 12 degrees across some northern towns and cities. bye— bye. who really, really loves hisjob. for viewers in the uk and around the world. this is bbc
