Kurdish group PKK says it is laying down arms and disbanding

The group has waged a 40-year insurgency against Turkey.

We take a walk around the BBC's headquarters here in London to take you through all of today's top stories. We start with the outlawed Kurdish group the PKK which has announced it is laying down its arms and disbanding. We'll also hear about the latest on the war in Ukraine and the US-China trade war.

We speak to two people - either side of the Pakistan-India controlled border in Kashmir - as discussions continue over a ceasefire.

And we have a conversation with journalists who were at Pope Leo XIV's first press event today.

OS presenter: Andrew Peach.
