British military charities. Yesterday, he addressed politicians and got stand standing ovation, and he got a lot of complaints on his french, he did his speech in french. We will be going back to these images because he is doing quite a lot inning next hour or so. At the moment, he is there in the forest and later we willjoin them as they move their visit to a vineyard, sustainable vineyard in bordeaux.

There have been thousands of people arriving on the italian island of lampedusa in recent days so it comes while this issueis recent days so it comes while this issue is of course top of the agenda, a very political issue but an issue very close to the popes heart. He is going to be getting a welcome ceremony and holding prayers for migrants a little later on, that is going to be at the notre dame basilica. The two day visit on the mediterranean and migration, focusing on the mediterranean. He gives a message of tolerance. I think we are also, we are not seeing the popejust yet think we are also, we are not seeing the pope just yet so we may go back to the other big event in france today, there is king charles at this forest that he is visiting in bordeaux. We will be coming back to these images, it will be going on for quite awhile. And we have, actually, president zelensky as well, we can show you images of this, there is a lot going on, president zelensky is in canada today, he is going to be addressing parliament there, he has been meeting Prime Minister trudeau. We will be keeping across the two major visits in france, of the pope who has just landed, visits in france, of the pope who hasjust landed, his Plane Hasjust landed in marseille, talk about migration and the issues of the mediterranean and the migration bear and how Europe Handles Migration and also what is going on in france, any other part of france, in bordeaux, as the king finishes his visit there, king charles and camilla of course who have been there getting a very warm welcome. Lets turn our attention to ukraine. They have successfully hit the headquarters of russias black sea navalfleet successfully hit the headquarters of russias Black Sea Naval Fleet in crimea. Russia says one serviceman is missing after the attack. The local governor warned residents in the city of sevaastopol that another attack was possible and urged them to avoid the city centre and stay indoors. These pictures were posted on social media showing plumes of smoke rising from the building. Ukraine has carried out several attacks on crimea this month, destroying a Russian Air Defence system and damaging a ship and submarine. Russia seized and annexed the peninsula from ukraine in 2014. It seems like certainly, if we go under very tight footage, it appears that russias Black Sea Naval Headquarters in sevastopol has been directly hit. Now, if we go on what the moscow officials are saying, they blamed falling debris but the images suggest that this is a direct hit. We dont know the further implications, in terms of who was in there, but this is a place where russia has really asserted its dominance. It is a black sea Black Sea Fleet from where it has launched Missile Strikes on ukraine, it has blockaded ports. This is a place that russia annexed back in 2015. It is almost a cornerstone of russias invasion and regardless of whether kyiv claims was positive for this one, it did last week when hit a dry dock with british missiles destroying a submachine and warship, it is clear that ukraine is continuing with its strategy of trying to target sites in crimea, to both undermine russias occupation and also to support its continued counteroffensive further north by frustrating russian operations. Meanwhile, president zelensky is in canada, for the First Time Since russias invasion, on a visit to thank canadians for their support. He arrived on thursay night alongside his wife 0lena and hes due to address the Canadian Parliament later this afternoon. The visit comes fresh off the back of a trip to washington. President biden has approved Security Assistance for kyiv valued at 325 million which includes upgrades to air defences, but not the long range missiles president zelensky has been requesting. Live now to jane boulden from canadas Royal Military college and queens university. Hello to you. This visit to canada, as ijust mentioned, is fresh off the back of the visit to the us, it is more of a thank you visit, really, than anything else . Yes, i think that is really, than anything else . Yes, i think that is the really, than anything else . Yes, i think that is the main really, than anything else . Yes, i think that is the main purpose really, than anything else . Yes, i think that is the main purpose of| think that is the main purpose of the visit. Canada has been deeply supportive of ukraine from the very beginning. Canada has the largest Ukrainian Population outside of ukraine and russia, and so there is a good core of both support and of core group, if you like, of ukrainians that have been deeply supportive all the way along and zelensky is here to express his gratitude for that. I zelensky is here to express his gratitude for that. Zelensky is here to express his gratitude for that. I think we have a arahic, gratitude for that. I think we have a graphic. We gratitude for that. I think we have a graphic. We can gratitude for that. I think we have a graphic, we can show gratitude for that. I think we have a graphic, we can show how gratitude for that. I think we have j a graphic, we can show how much gratitude for that. I think we have i a graphic, we can show how much in terms of the contributions of various countries gave, where canada is on that scale. Weve got us right at the top, 46 billion, germanys next, uk and canada a few further down, 1. 8 billion. Just talking about, in terms of what canada has given so far and what president zelensky is looking for, he wants those long range missiles, doesnt he . And i suppose that is not what canada is able to offer, is it . That is riaht, canada is able to offer, is it . That is right, canadas canada is able to offer, is it . Twat is right, canadas ability to offer Military Support is limited in the sense of canadas on� t Military Power itself is relatively small, it doesnt have some of the hyatt tech longer range Missile Systems that would be most useful to ukraine. That said, we have been contributing what we can from our stock, military stock, it isntjust not that kind of weapon system. We stock, it isntjust not that kind of weapon system. Stock, it isntjust not that kind of weapon system. We are hearing today about of weapon system. We are hearing today about the of weapon system. We are hearing today about the strike of weapon system. We are hearing today about the strike on of weapon system. We are hearing today about the strike on the of weapon system. We are hearing j today about the strike on the black fleet in crimea, in terms of the significance of that, what do you make of that, in terms of the significance . Do you think it is a big blow or how does it fit in . Ht big blow or how does it fit in . Ut is hard to tell at this stage, in terms of actual losses, i guess they have said there is one person missing. I think the main significance is the symbolism of being able to hit that headquarters in crimea. As your correspondent indicated, this past month, ukraine has been working hard at targeting crimea. It gives it a capacity to reach beyond the front lines that go along with the contested area on the east and north in ukraine, and that is very important at being able to strike directly at russia and not just to be working on the front lines in the trenches, if you like. So, the actual impact is hard to access to assess but the symbolic impact is large. N access to assess but the symbolic impact is large impact is large. I suppose as retards impact is large. I suppose as regards how impact is large. I suppose as regards how it impact is large. I suppose as regards how it helps impact is large. I suppose as regards how it helps the impact is large. I suppose as regards how it helps the military offensive, it probably helps his Charm Offensive as well, this quest for arms around the world, in terms of saying, look, we are nearly capable of doing this and spinning things along a bit. Things along a bit. Exactly right, and i things along a bit. Exactly right, and i imagine things along a bit. Exactly right, and i imagine the things along a bit. Exactly right, and i imagine the timing things along a bit. Exactly right, and i imagine the timing is things along a bit. Exactly right, and i imagine the timing is no i and i imagine the timing is no accident, in that this is happening while zelensky is making the rounds, trying to shore up Political Support in countries like the us and canada. The ability to point to this kind of action will help him considerably. Because it is that kind of long range system in addition to things like air defences that he really needs, and he is fighting against stance particularly in the us, but notjust in the us, that the war has told and that there is not likely to be a breakthrough soon. Ht likely to be a breakthrough soon. It is also went out coming, which as we know really affects the fighting and their capabilities. Ht know really affects the fighting and their capabilities. Their capabilities. It does significantly their capabilities. It does significantly affect their capabilities. It does significantly affect that, l their capabilities. It does i significantly affect that, and their capabilities. It does significantly affect that, and it is not that far off, and one of the things that happened last winter was that it gave both sides but russia seems to have been in a more the beneficiary of the time to reassure come every set at eight there troops, gather more defences, and be ready for the next round. And if thatis ready for the next round. And if that is what we are going to soon again then again that speaks to zelensky� s need to make sure there is a pipeline of support, weapons, political, military, resources and otherforms, notjust political, military, resources and other forms, notjust weapons, political, military, resources and otherforms, notjust weapons, that will enable them to use the winter to be ready for the spring in any way.

Pope francis is visiting the french Port City Of Marseille today on a trip focused on the mediterranean and migration. As we know, king charles and camilla are in france at the moment, they are in france at the moment, they are visiting a vineyard little a later on. The pope isjust arriving. I think we might see stick with these pictures because we might see him emerging from the plane very shortly. He is starting two days of a visit to france. He has made it very clear that he is visiting the french port city rather than france as a whole because he really was to talk about migration and the situation, in terms of migration, in the mediterranean, and he is bringing a message of tolerance and that this bitter debate there is about how europe manages Asylum Seekers. Weve got a dual view of france there, marseille on one side and bordeaux on the other because there is king charles and the camera people following him there as he visits a forest which is all focusing on Climate Change and the effect on trees on Climate Change so it is an Experimental Research venue that he is visiting as we know this is an issue very close to king charles is heart, he has been talk about this for many decades now. Trees obviously a massive part of that. We can see the steps going up to the plane where pope francis is expected to emerge to start the visit to focus on migration and the mediterranean. He will be holding a prayer at the notre dame della guard silica a little later on and that is in an hours time, and he will be having a welcome ceremony and those prayers for migrants there. The notre dame basilica. He is talking about it being a symbolic. Local clergy will be this afternoon. A Beautiful Day in marseille, he will Beautiful Day in marseille, he will be following that prayer with a moment of meditation with representatives of other religions in front of a memorial to sailors and migrants lost at sea. He is also going to be meeting Mediterranean Area Catholic Bishops and young people. Marseille is of course a gateway for immigrants and also home to some of the poorest neighbourhoods in europe. There will be many dignitaries and members of the church waiting there for his arrival. And the french Prime Minister is somewhere in the crowd there, waiting to welcome him. She will be there greeting him as the pope arrives. We are hoping the visit will be focusing a lot on migration and the way that europe handles it. On saturday morning, he will be taking part in the closing session of these mediterranean Meetings Event that it is called, as well as migration, it will be covering issues such as economic inequality and Climate Change, and also things close to the popes heart. Thousands of pilgrims are respected for this visit, although there has been a decline of dick catholicism in france in recent years but still Tens Of Thousands of people are expected to line the streets are come and focus on the areas where hes going to be in marseille, this french port city, 30 days he is visiting for two days. For two days, he is visiting for two days. He is going to hold a prayer with the local clergy on friday afternoon. That will be followed by afternoon. That will be followed by a moment of meditation with representatives of other religions, Thatis Representatives of other religions, that is going to be in front of a memorial to sailors and migrants lost at sea. The un estimates that more than 28,000 migrants who tried to cross the mediterranean have gone missing since 2014. So come on saturday, tomorrow, the pope is going to be taking part in the closing session of those Mediterranean Area event, covering economic inequality and Climate Change as well. He will be meeting some Catholic Bishops today and also young people from the area. Just waiting now to see many people emerging from the plane there, i expect there are a lot of journalists on board as well, they often get to travel with the pope when he flies along these visits.
