And ukrainian pilots are currently being trained. Mr zelensky also said the military was still short of manpower and russia could increase its attacks in ukraines north east following its recent gains near the city of kharkiv. Translation we need to staff the reserve. There are a serious number of brigrades which a large number of them are empty. We need to do this so the guys can have a normal rotation, then their morale will be improved. Our ukraine correspondent James Waterhouse outlined how desperate this need is for air defences. Well, he always plonks air defences at the top of his wish list, thats been the case for the last year or so, because of two things russia has continued to launch Missile Attacks on cities across ukraine, but it has become more dominant in the air, right across the front line. So that means that when you have exhausted, thinly stretched ukrainian troops trying to defend cities, you have russian fighterjets flying in and dropping missiles and glide bombs, and as in the situation in the north east with this incursion, we hear from authorities around the town of vovchansk on the border, they are saying thousands of glide bombs have been dropped, which reflects, i think, russias ability to mount these strikes unchallenged. So president zelensky has been quite specific on what he needs and lacks. He wants more air defence systems, he says hes only got a quarter of what he needs. Hes also specified how many f 16 fighter jets he would like. Despite the pilots being trained and the jets being promised, not one has been used operationally by ukraine. It has not happened, we are halfway through 2024 and no fighterjets, but hes not giving up on that, clearly. Earlier i spoke to oleksiy goncharenko, who is a ukraininan member of parliament. I started by asking how important these western fighter jets are to ukraine. They are desperately needed, and not now but for more than two years already, and we really need them, and especially now russians are using these bombs in kharkiv and surroundings, and the only way for us, they couldnt be intercepted just with air defences, so the only way is to attack the fighter jets which russia is using to launch them. And for this, we need more air defence in ukraine, and we desperately need this, and we need fighter jets to keep russians further from the front line, at least that is why we really need them, according to what i know, they will arrive to ukraine injuly, but the question is, in what numbers, how many, and what exactly missiles they will have, what avionics and other systems . That is very important. How concerned are you about the situation around kharkiv, because 10,000 people have had to be evacuated, where have they gone, and what is the situation for the troops on the front line there . I was therejust several days ago, i am very concerned. Russia cannot take kharkiv, or at least right now definitely not, and i think in general ukraine has enough capacity to stop them from taking kharkiv. But if they will advance closer to the city, and the city will be within artillery range, that will cause awful suffering for people, because we know the russian warfare playbook, they will just start to make from kharkiv aleppo, and they will start to destroy the city, causing tens of thousands, maybe hundreds of thousands of people to run away and destroying the second largest city in our country. So that is why it is so important to stop them now, not to give them further possibility to advance closer to kharkiv. And president zelensky and the parliament, you have changed the law on who can be called up to fight now, so prisoners can go to the front line, is that correct . Yeah, it is correct, i am one of the co authors of the law, and those who are not convicted for very heavy crimes, they can, if they want, go to fight, they will receive such possibility. I think it is fair, and these people also deserve the right to protect their motherland. There has been some criticism of the legislation, that it doesnt give a definitive timeframe for the end of service for those people who have been called up. How do you respond to that criticism . It must have an effect on both them and their families. Absolutely, i am one of those who are criticising that, i sponsored the bill about the definition of the Terms Of Service a year ago, and unfortunately it has still not been made, and this is a very big problem. That was in the draft of the law, but the day before voting, it was taken away by the government. I think this is a huge mistake, it is very important for those who are fighting, even prisoners know their sentence, you know . Ukrainian mobilised men do not know how they will say. But also, it is very de motivating, those who are civilians and can be mobilised. It was a big mistake of the government not to define the Terms Of Service, and i will continue to push this through the ukrainian parliament, because i think it is very much needed. The former Chief Of Staff to the russian Opposition LeaderAlexei Navalny has vowed to never give up fighting against President Putin, saying the fight to change the country must go ahead, despite mr navalny� s death in february in a russian prison. In his first Broadcast Interview since he was badly beaten in a Hammer Attack in march, in lithuania, which he believes was ordered by the putin regime, Leonid Volkov spoke to the bbc� s Laura Kuenssberg. He reiterated mr navalny� s call for his supporters never to back down and backed his widow yulia to lead the Opposition Campaign against President Putin. He was a close friend, a great guy, an inspiring personality, a true hero, and a great and very capable political leader. There is no substitution for him, and this loss will always be just like an open wound in our hearts, in the hearts of his colleagues and friends. But we also know that he asked us to never give up and to continue our work and to build this to defeat putin and to build this beautiful russia of the future that alexei dreamed of for so many years, is the only practical way to preserve his legacy and to make his ultimate sacrifice not to be in vain. Yulia is also a very strong personality and a charismatic leader. She never wanted to be in this public role, and she was always a very close political advisor to alexei, and for us, as navalny� s organisation, the teams that navalny organised, gather together, its very clear and natural that our task in this situation is just to support yulia and all her endeavours in everything that she does. And thats what we are doing now, of course. Leonid volkov. And viewers in the uk can watch all of that interview on sunday with Laura Kuenssberg on bbc one tomorrow morning at 9am. To tunsia next.

Health officials in devon, in southwest england, say the tank which was infected with a parasite causing sickness in south devon has now been drained, and will be thoroughly cleaned on saturday. A total of 46 cases of cryptosporidiosis have been confirmed so far, with more than 100 other people reporting symptoms. South west water has said its truly sorry for the outbreak and that the company will not stop working until the situation is resolved. Ben woolvin has more from paignton. The english riviera. Known for its palm trees, piers, and now also its parasites. For at least a week after symptoms, we were still giving them contaminated water. Evelyn is five and still having bad stomach pains today.

I dont think we will be drinking the water again. I dont think we will be drinking the tap water again. I dont think we will be drinking the tap water water again. I dont think we will be drinking the tap water around here. Public Health Officials say three people were admitted to hospital, but have since been discharged, and most recover within one week. Who made the decision to say that the water was still safe to drink, while investigations were still continuing . That is an interesting one, and i think, in the wash up, we will have to go back through it, and learn some of those lessons. When the outbreak was declared by the agency, the information we had from South West Water at that point was that they had no unusual sampling. South west water now believes that a damaged air valve on a pipe in a field containing livestock is how the parasite, which can be found in animalfaeces, got into the system. The company says the water tank at hillhead reservoir, where tests confirmed the presence of cryptosporidium earlier this week, was drained overnight and will be thoroughly cleaned today. Once complete the company says it will start refilling the water tank later today. Bottled water is likely to be a part of life here for at least another week. The Water Company says that it is still working to rule out other possible Contamination Sources elsewhere on the network. Ben woolvin, bbc news, torbay.

Yes, indeed and indeed, a slightly likely to go on. Yes, indeed and indeed, a slightly mixed likely to go on. Yes, indeed and indeed, a slightly mixed picture j indeed, a slightly mixed picture when it comes to how far through this process we are because there is certainly the reassurance there that one source of the cryptosporidium has been successfully identified. That is reassuring public Health Officials but the latest official line we have from the Water Company is that work to rule out any other possible sources of contamination does continue. And even if they have successfully isolated wall of the sources of this cryptosporidium in the water supply, we are still being told it will be a week before the
