Ukraine: Reporting from the battle of Bakhmut

We speak to our correspondent who's been reporting from the longest battle of the war.

The battle for the eastern Ukrainian city of Bakhmut has been the longest and bloodiest of this war so far. Western officials estimate between 20,000 and 30,000 Russian troops have been killed or wounded here, while Ukraine's military has also paid a heavy price - and it still isn't over. We'll speak to our correspondent Jonathan Beale who has been reporting from Bakhmut.

A jury in a civil case has found former President Donald Trump sexually abused a magazine columnist in a New York department store in the 1990s. Mr Trump was found not liable for raping E Jean Carroll in the dressing room of Bergdorf Goodman. The jury also found Mr Trump liable for defamation for calling the writer's accusations "a hoax and a lie". We'll speak to female republican voters to hear their reaction.

Social media posts by the man who killed eight people at a mall in Texas show he was deep into neo-Nazi and far-right imagery and propaganda. But some activists have tried to cast doubt on the authenticity of the posts. We'll hear more from our disinformation correspondent.
