Murder-accused nurse Lucy Letby has told her trial how she found the deaths of two triplet brothers on successive days a "harrowing" experience. The 33-year-old is accused of killing the boys after returning to work at the Countess of Chester Hospital following a trip to Ibiza in June 2016. She said: "It's devastating. You want to save every baby in your care. You're not supposed to watch a baby die." Ms Letby denies murdering seven babies and the attempted murders of 10 others. Manchester Crown Court has previously heard that one of the boys, referred to as Child O, was stable up until 23 June, when he suffered a "remarkable deterioration" and was moved to another nursery, where he stabilised. He later suffered a further fatal collapse. A post-mortem examination found unclotted blood in his body from a liver injury, which led a coroner to conclude his death was due to natural causes. However, an independent pathologist, who later reviewed the case, said the boy had suffered an "impact injury" akin to a road traffic collision, while medical experts for the prosecution said he died due to a combination of that injury and air being injected into his bloodstream. Ms Letby was asked by her defence barrister Ben Myers KC if she had introduced air into Child O's system or caused him any harm. She replied: "No, never." Mr Myers asked the nurse what the atmosphere was like when a baby died on the unit, she said: "It's completely flat. There is a complete change in atmosphere. "To me personally, it's devastating. You want to save every baby in your care. "You're not supposed to watch a baby die." Mr Myers noted the accused had been on holiday in the week prior to Child O's death. He asked her if she was planning "anything dramatic and terrible" upon her return, to which she said "no". Less than 24 hours after Child O's death, his brother, Child P, died in similar circumstances. The jury has heard that at 09:50 BST on 24 June 2016, Child P collapsed and required breathing support. He collapsed several more times that day, before being pronounced dead at 16:00. 'Very anxious' A medical expert for the prosecution said the collapses were consistent with an "additional amount of air being given to this baby". Asked for her recollections of 24 June, Ms Letby said there was an "increasing sense of anxiety on the unit" as Child P was not responding to treatment. She said there was a "huge sense of relief" when a specialist team arrived from Arrowe Park Hospital, Wirral, to assist with his treatment. She added: "We were all very anxious, particularly in view of what had happened to [Child O] the day before. "There didn't seem to be any clear plan from doctors, we very much wanted the transport team to come and offer their expertise." The nurse said the requirements of Child P were "beyond our level of care". Despite the presence of the specialist team, Child P collapsed and died. Asked to give a sense of the mood in the hospital at that time, Ms Letby said: "Everybody was shocked, devastated. "I was really upset, to have that two days in a row. To imagine what those parents had gone through, it was harrowing. "You don't forget something like that." The trial continues. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-merseyside-65623796

Ctenophores, or comb jellies, are strange jelly-like animals that ghost through the sea propelled by tiny hairs called cilia. They're an enigmatic bunch, with origins that stretch back approximately 540 million years, and no one is sure exactly when they diverged from the rest of the tree of life. Now, researchers have discovered that these alien-like creatures are even weirder than we thought: Their nervous system is like nothing ever seen before. Instead of relying on gaps between nerve cells called synapses for communication, at least part of the ctenophore nervous system is fused. "We haven't actually seen this in any other animal before," study co-author Maike Kittelmann(opens in new tab), a cell and developmental biologist at Oxford Brookes University in the U.K., told Live Science. "It means that there are other ways that neurons can connect to each other." Nervous system evolution The discovery raises questions about how all nervous systems evolved and adds fuel to a long-standing debate about how comb jellies are related to the rest of the animal kingdom. Many scientists thought that the nervous system in animals evolved only once, at some point after sponges broke off from the rest of the animal kingdom, as sponges do not have a nervous system. But some scientists think ctenophores diverged from other animals early and evolved their own nervous system separately. Related: What's the weirdest sea creature ever discovered? Comb jellies don't have brains, but have a weblike system of neurons known as the nerve net. It's within this nerve net that researchers found the fused neurons. The strange fused arrangement could hint that these systems evolved independently, Kittlemann said. But it's still an open question. "We don’t really know for sure," she said. The new research, published April 20 in the journal Science(opens in new tab), looks at ctenophores in an early developmental stage, when they're just a few days old. At this stage, ctenophores can move around freely and even reproduce, but they're not full adults. (Depending on species, ctenophores have life spans between about a month and several years.) The vast majority of nerve cells in animals communicate via synapses, which are gaps between cells. To "talk," neurons release chemicals called neurotransmitters across these gaps. But the new study found that within the ctenophore nerve net, the cells are fused and their membranes connected so that the path from cell body to cell body is continuous. This structure is called a syncytium. "There are some other animals which show fused neurons but not to that extreme, where you have a whole nerve net," study co-author Pawel Burkhardt(opens in new tab), who studies the evolutionary origin of neurons and synapses at Norway's University of Bergen, told Live Science. Fused neural networks The discovery raises a whole bevy of new questions, Burkhardt said, from how this fused network develops to how it functions. The same cells that are fused together also make connections to other nerve cells via synapses, and other parts of the ctenophore nervous system use synapses, too. It's not clear, Burkhardt said, why comb jellies use two different methods of communication between their nerve cells. One possibility is that the fused nervous system has some advantage for tissue repair and healing, Leslie Babonis(opens in new tab), an evolutionary biologist at Cornell University who was not involved in the new study, told Live Science. Ctenophores are capable of regenerating an entirely new animal from a small chunk of flesh. "Maybe this is one of the secrets to their incredible ability for regeneration," Babonis said. The research team only looked at one species of ctenophore — Mnemiopsis leidyi — in one developmental stage, so they now plan to find out whether other species have fused neural networks and whether this fusion persists through the animal's whole lifespan. This could help answer questions about the evolution of the nervous system and whether it arose once, twice or more times. If many ctenophores have unique fused nervous systems, this could lend credence to the hypothesis that ctenophores evolved their nervous system separately from other animals. But it's also possible that all animal nervous systems still share a common origin, and ctenophores evolved the fusion later, the researchers said. Only a handful of lineages in the animal kingdom have had their nervous systems closely studied, Leonid Moroz(opens in new tab), a biologist at the Whitney Laboratory for Marine Biosciences at the University of Florida, told Live Science. Moroz was not involved in the current study but led a 2014 study(opens in new tab) of ctenophores, which found that the genetic and chemical basis of the ctenophore neural system is quite different from that seen in other animals https://www.livescience.com/animals/alien-like-comb-jellies-have-a-nervous-system-like-nothing-ever-seen-before

Many of the hot hatches of today are a far cry from their altogether simpler and less complex ancestors, in some cases costing upwards of £50,000 and having technical specs that wouldn't look out of place in touring car racing. Forget about any notion of emotional appeal for a second, and it's against this current era of the hot hatch where suddenly one powered by electricity doesn't seem quite so daft. Bigger, heavier, more complex and more expensive – hot hatches were going there anyway. The Abarth 500e is the first of the electric hot hatch breed, a true pioneer in trying to find out whether one of the most loved and revered types of car can cut it in its transition to the electric world. As its name suggests and Abarth's way of making cars dictates, it is closely related to the Fiat 500. Very closely in fact – the two sharing almost all key running gear including the battery and motor. The motor, a single front-mounted unit, has had more power and torque liberated from it (it's now rated at 152bhp and 173lb ft, increases of 35bhp and 11lb ft from the Fiat) thanks to some optimisation of internal losses and simply making it work harder. The battery is the same 42kWh floor-mounted lithium ion unit with some current tweaks, while the single fixed gear ratio has gone from 9.6 to 10.2, for a better balance between acceleration and top speed. The range drops from 199 miles to 164 miles due to these revisions (and more to the styling that goes all-in on sportiness rather than aero-optimisation), though the 85kW maximum charging speed is retained. These changes, says Stellantis's chief BEV propulsion engineer Maurizio Salvia, are still enough to make the Abarth 500e "quicker everywhere" that matters than the familiar and well-loved Abarth 695, which stays on sale as a petrol hot hatch offering for Abarth, similar to what Fiat has itself done with petrol and electric 500s. It's quoted as being a second quicker from 12mph to 25mph and again from 25mph to 37mph, that same second faster on a lap around Stellantis's Balocco test track and finally quicker by an unspecified amount in a "traffic light sprint". The 0-62mph time is half a second slower, mind, ultimately unsurprising given the extra 28bhp, 26lb ft and, most crucially, just over 400kg weight surplus over its 1.4-litre turbo-powered range-mate. There is no radical chassis makeover in the 500e's evolution from Fiat to Abarth, the days of Abarth bits arriving at your dealer in a wooden crate to be fitted sadly over. Instead, the standard MacPherson strut front and torsion beam rear suspension has been given new tuning and the new shock absorbers new rates, while as much dynamic benefit between petrol and electric Abarths will be felt with the 24mm-longer wheelbase, 60mm-wider tracks and an improved front/back weight distribution from 63/37 to 57/43. Bespoke Bridgestone Sport Compound tyres have been developed for the car, too. The biggest change dynamically, if you can call it that, has been the addition of the Abarth Sound Generator, a big external speaker, multi-channel amplifier and subwoofer mounted under the boot floor where the spare wheel well would be. It sounds like something from the Max Power era and makes the sound of something like that too, its booming exhaust-imitating note being a reproduction of the classic Abarth Record Monza. Hit the starter button, and the sound from this generator is felt not only in your eardrums but through your backside, too. It's loud, so loud in fact that Abarth says it's on the limits of homologation. It took 6000 hours to develop and 'petrolhead' Abarth fans were consulted during its development. The brand is "unapologetic" about its inclusion, Abarth's European boss Gaetano Thorel saying it's needed as well to "stir all the emotions". Whatever you think of it, credit to Abarth for not shying away from the fact that electric performance cars sound poor, and that noise is so central to their involvement. It's the Balocco test track where we drive the 500e first, hot on the heels of some sighter laps in the 695. Waiting to leave the pits, once you're relieved to know that the driving position in the new EV is no longer as comically high as in the petrol car, you can admire the lovely dark Alcantara trim that adorns much of a cabin that's ultimately entirely familiar from the electric Fiat 500 otherwise. The other addition is some contrast stitching to match the strikingly named Acid Green and Poison Blue new paint colours offered. The new Abarth is not as alive on the track as the 695, nor a car you ever feel as in tune with. Yet unlike most electric cars it doesn't feel out of depth on circuit and it is still able to raise a smile with no drop-off in performance as the temperature of the running gear rises. The steering is lighter and more relaxed than in the petrol car, yet retains the precision. The front end feels sharper and it turns in more keenly, offering greater resistance to understeer that ultimately still wins out. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/abarth/500e

Kevin de Bruyne's stunning goal helped Manchester City get a draw from their Champions League first leg against Real Madrid - but does he get the credit he deserves? Vinicius Jr crashed Real into the lead at the Bernabeu last week, with De Bruyne's 25-yard strike levelling the semi-final going into Wednesday's second leg at Etihad Stadium. The Belgium midfielder has been consistently one of the best players in Europe since joining City from Wolfsburg in 2015. The 31-year-old has scored 64 goals and made 101 assists in 237 Premier League games for City. Only Lionel Messi and Thomas Muller have made more assists across Europe's top five leagues in that time. "I think De Bruyne still needs a defining moment on this stage," said journalist James Horncastle on BBC Radio 5 Live's Euro Leagues Show. "As big as City are in the Premier League and as much as Pep Guardiola brings the world's attention on City, they are not a legacy club. "It is harder for a City player to create consensus around football journalists. A lot of time the genius and style of play is associated with Guardiola." De Bruyne has scored 14 Champions League goals for City, with a club record 11 of them coming in knockout games. French journalist Julien Laurens said: "City needed De Bruyne to step up in the second half because he was quite neutral in the first half. "He just popped up in a moment that maybe could take his team to another final. "Real Madrid were set up to prevent De Bruyne from having a big impact on the game. Yet he stays in the game because at some point he knows something will come to him. "Mentally you have to be very strong to stay in your game until that moment and I think his celebration showed it. He ran to the corner where the City fans were and he clearly exploded. This is what big players do." De Bruyne has been named Premier League player of the season twice and finished third in the 2022 Ballon d'Or. City team-mate Erling Haaland was recently named the Football Writers' Association (FWA) footballer of the year. Spanish journalist Guillem Balague said: "I voted for De Bruyne as player of the year. But it is difficult to pick him. It doesn't come natural to say De Bruyne, the best player of Manchester City and the Premier League. "In Spain he is seen as good but not as in Real Madrid and Barcelona should be fighting for him. That's partly because we have had a few like De Bruyne in recent years and secondly because his manager is a work of art at City, playing the best football we've seen but it is not down to one player doing marvellous things in different parts of the pitch. "They all have their square of influence and Kevin de Bruyne has not been allowed to come out of that. In that area of influence he is very good but not in the kind of amazing way where we say he has to be given the Ballon d'Or." Real Madrid winger Vinicius Jr, who scored the opener in the first leg, has become one of Europe's best players in the last few seasons. This season alone the 22-year-old Brazilian has scored 23 goals and assisted another 21. A winger with remarkable dribbling ability, his strike last week was a brilliant hit from 25 yards. Laurens said: "If he starts scoring goals like that on top of everything else he does really well then he becomes an even bigger problem for all the teams that will face him. "It was fantastic and maybe it is the next evolution for him on how he improves even more." Only Haaland (13 - 12 goals, one assist) has been involved in more Champions League goals than Vinicius this season (12 - seven goals, five assists). Balague said: "If he does what he is doing so far with 20-odd assists this season and more goals than he has ever scored in a season it is fine. "If he can intervene and be influential in different parts of the pitch it takes him to being the best in the world. "But he has to do it for a few full seasons." When Vinicius first joined Real from Flamengo in 2018, he had bags of skill but his finishing let him down. In his first three seasons he hit a combined 14 goals in all competitions, but he has netted 55 in almost two seasons since. Horncastle said: "One of the things that should never go under the radar with Vinicius is the chance that Real Madrid took on him. "They spent a lot of money when they signed him - more than £40m - when nobody had heard of him and they signed him straight from Brazil and over time they have developed him and we are talking now about a player who is top three in the world." https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/65571486

Gunmen in south-eastern Nigeria have attacked a US convoy, killing four people, local police say. They say two of the victims of Tuesday's attack in the Anambra state were US consulate employees, while the other two were police officers. The attackers kidnapped three other people, and set their vehicle on fire. Washington says no US citizens were in the convoy, which was travelling in the state plagued by violence and a separatist insurgency. Nigerian police say the attack happened on the Atani-Osamale road in Ogbaru region. Police spokesperson DSP Ikenga Tochukwu says security forces were currently carrying out a rescue and recovery operation. In a statement to the BBC, the US confirmed that "there was an incident on 16 May in Anambra state", adding that Washington was working with Nigerian security services to investigate the attack. "The security of our personnel is always paramount, and we take extensive precautions when organising trips to the field," the US state department said. The Nigerian authorities often blame violent attacks in the region on the Indigenous People of Biafra (Ipob) movement, which is fighting for a breakaway state in the south-east of the country. Anambra and other parts of the south-east have seen a sharp rise in attacks on security forces since Ipob launched an armed wing in December 2020. The group has so far made no public comments on the issue. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-65620595

Infinix Note 30 5G, expected to launch later this year, was previously spotted on Google Play Console, giving us some hints on its specifications. Now, the smartphone's key details have been leaked by a po[CENSORED]r tipster, who also hinted about the expected colour options. The purported phone is tipped to come in three colour options. Infinix Note 30 5G is speculated to come with Dimensity 6080 SoC. However, the company is yet to reveal or confirm any of these rumours. Tipster Paras Guglani (Twitter @passionategeekz) has leaked the key specifications of the purported Infinix Note 30 5G via Twitter. He has shared that the phone could sport a 6.78-inch Full HD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate. The smartphone is said to be powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 6080 SoC, coupled with 8GB RAM and 256GB inbuilt storage. Moreover, the phone is likely to carry a triple rear camera setup, comprising a 108-megapixel main camera, a 2-megapixel sensor and an AI camera. For selfies, there could be a 16-megapixel front camera. Revealing more information on the battery and the software support of the smartphone, the tweet mentioned that the Infinix Note 30 is likely to come with Android 13 pre-installed and powered by 5,000 mAh along with support for 33W charging. Apart from these, the phone could debut in three colour options namely Magic Black, Sunset Gold, and Interstellar Blue. This is not the first time that the expected specifications of the Infinix Note 30 have surfaced online. Previously, the phone's live images were leaked mentioning the expected launch timeline and availability. The leaked live images suggested that the Infinix Note 30 Pro could come with a glittery back panel and will have a rectangular camera module, which will house a three rear camera unit and an LED flashlight, placed on the top left corner of the back panel. https://www.gadgets360.com/mobiles/news/infinix-note-30-5g-specifications-colour-options-leaked-4036734

Introduction There are many flagship phones to choose from nowadays, but there is just one made for both casual and professional photographers. It's the one with a timeless design with excellent grip, top-notch cameras with a hardware shutter key, a 4K display, and front-facing stereo speakers. Yes, it's a Sony Xperia 1, the fifth of its line. The Sony Xperia 1 V is an incremental upgrade over the Xperia 1 IV, but given how good that one was, there is no surprise. Still, the 1 V brings the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, now with a better cooling system and a promise for less throttling and no overheating. There is an improved primary camera with a multi-aspect 52MP sensor, plus, drum rolls, Night mode is now available! The design has been thoughtfully improved, and you are looking at the only non-rugged smartphone that deserves a Perfect mark for grip. The Xperia 1 V has two Gorilla Glass Victus panels, and the rear one is matte with a dotted pattern for extra grip. The metal frame is all ridged, too, and this is how a premium phone can provide an outstanding grip experience without giving up on looks. The 4K OLED display is here to stay, and so are the front-facing stereo speakers - now featuring an improved amplifier for richer sound. The lovely haptic feedback the Xperias are known for is available, too. Let's talk about the camera. The primary imager got a massive update with a multi-aspect 52MP Sony sensor with an effective 48MP resolution. Thanks to the new stacked architecture, it should offer the noise performance and the dynamic range of a full-frame camera (in the dark), according to Sony. The rest of the cameras remain the same as on the Xperia 1 V - a 12MP telephoto with a 3.5x-5.2x continuous optical zoom, a 12MP ultrawide-angle with autofocus, and a 12MP selfie camera with a fixed focus. All rear cameras support 4K120 capturing, while the front one maxes out at 4K60. The Sony Xperia 1 V is powered by a 5,000mAh battery, and it supports 30W wired charging, plus both wireless and reverse wireless charging. The phone runs on Android 13 with Xperia UI. And here are the complete specs. Sony Xperia 1 V specs at a glance: Body: 165.0x71.0x8.3mm, 187g; Glass front (Gorilla Glass Victus 2), glass back (Gorilla Glass Victus), aluminum frame; IP65/IP68 dust/water resistant (up to 1.5m for 30 min). Display: 6.50" OLED, 1B colors, 120Hz, HDR BT.2020, 1644x3840px resolution, 21:9 aspect ratio, 643ppi; Runs at 1096 x 2560 pixels except for select use cases. Chipset: Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 (4 nm): Octa-core (1x3.2 GHz Cortex-X3 & 2x2.8 GHz Cortex-A715 & 2x2.8GHz Cortex-A710 & 3x2.0 GHz Cortex-A510); Adreno 740. Memory: 256GB 12GB RAM; UFS 4,0; microSDXC (uses shared SIM slot). OS/Software: Android 13, Xperia UI. Rear camera: Wide (main): 52 MP, f/1.9, 24mm, 1/1.35", 1.12µm, Dual Pixel PDAF, OIS; Telephoto: 12 MP, f/2.3, 85mm, f/2.8, 125mm, 1/3.5", Dual Pixel PDAF, 3.5x-5.2x continuous optical zoom, OIS; Ultra wide angle: 12 MP, f/2.2, 124˚, 16mm, 1/2.5", Dual Pixel PDAF. Front camera: 12 MP, f/2.0, 24mm (wide), 1/2.9", 1.25µm. Video capture: Rear camera: 4K@24/25/30/60/120fps HDR, 1080p@30/60/120fps; 5-axis gyro-EIS, OIS; Front camera: 4K@30fps, 1080p@30/60fps, 5-axis gyro-EIS. Battery: 5000mAh; 30W wired, PD3.0, PPS, 50% in 30 min (advertised), Wireless, Reverse wireless. Connectivity: Dual SIM 5G; eSIM; Wi-Fi 6; BT 5.3, aptX HD, aptX Adaptive; NFC; 3.5mm jack. Misc: Fingerprint reader (side-mounted); front-facing stereo speakers; Native Sony Alpha camera support (Creator app). We are thrilled to see that Sony is keeping alive the microSD expansion and the 3.5mm audio jack, and we love its persistence in having notch-free screens. The symmetrical front speakers are a Sony trademark, too, one that we are quite fond of. There is one thing that has been retired on the Xperia 1 V is the tiny notification LED. We suspect that Sony still cannot offer dynamic refresh rate, which is essential for better battery life, but we will talk about that in a bit. Now, without further ado, let's meet the Sony Xperia 1 V. Unboxing the Sony Xperia 1 V The Sony Xperia 1 V ships in a small and thin box made of recycled paper. Inside you will find the Xperia itself and, well, nothing else. Sony offers neither a charger, nor a cable. And if you want the best charger (and cable) for your new Xperia 1 V, you will have to buy Sony's 30W XQZ-UC1 charger bundle for €50 or so. https://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_1_v-review-2567.php

EA and Codemasters have shared their F1 23 gameplay features deep dive featuring Sky Sports F1 presenter Natalie Pinkham highlighting the updated vehicle handling, physics, new tracks, the return of red flags and much more. The team also introduces their new Precision Drive controller technology offering an overhauled experience for players without a steering wheel controller. The new 35% race distance which debuted in F1 Esports allows players to race shorter options with the same rules applied to full races, like mandatory pit stops. F1 23 will also feature the return of red flags creating more on-the-fly strategy scenarios on the way to the pits.

The UK will send hundreds of air defence missiles and armed drones to Ukraine on top of the Storm Shadow cruise missiles announced last week. The move means the UK is going further than any other country in providing weapons with the potential to tip the battlefield in Ukraine's favour. Earlier, President Volodymyr Zelensky met the UK's Rishi Sunak as part of his tour of Western allies. Mr Zelensky said it was important for the West to send fighter jets as well. But the prime minister said providing fighter jets was "not a straightforward thing", although he did say the UK would form "a key part of the coalition countries" providing that support. Ukraine is continuing to prepare for a much-anticipated counter-offensive against Russian forces. Last week, Mr Zelensky told the BBC his country needed more weaponry before it could launch the attack. On Monday, the Ukrainian president had about two hours of talks with Mr Sunak at Chequers, near London. He arrived on British soil for a surprise visit after a whirlwind tour of Western Europe that also took in Rome, Berlin and Paris. Mr Zelensky said Ukraine and the UK were "real partners", while Mr Sunak's spokesman described the meeting as "warm and collegiate". The Storm Shadow cruise missiles can be used to destroy Russia's positions on occupied Ukrainian territory. If Ukraine can destroy Russia's command centres, logistics hubs and ammunition depots in occupied territory, then it may prove impossible for Moscow to continue resupplying its frontline troops in places. This is what Ukraine did so successfully in Kherson last year, forcing the Russians to withdraw almost without a fight. It will now be hoping to repeat the process with the help of Western-supplied munitions. What weapons are being given to Ukraine by the UK? The challenges of giving fighter jets to Ukraine President Zelensky's repeated calls for Nato to send F-16 jets are being met with delays and obfuscations, for several reasons. The Ukrainian air force has trained its pilots on F-16s, which the RAF do not use, but such training takes months, not days. Logistics, maintenance and the need to find suitable runways are all important too. Finally, there is the question of escalation. Nato is struggling to balance giving Kyiv the maximum support it can, without getting directly drawn into this conflict. If Nato does end up sending F-16 warplanes, however old they may be, then that, in Moscow's eyes, constitutes a major provocation by the West. Mr Zelensky said he discussed the supply of Western fighter jets with Mr Sunak. New jets were a "very important topic for us, because we can't control the sky", the Ukrainian leader added. "We spoke about it and I see that in the closest time you will hear some, I think, very important decisions, but we have to work a little bit more on it," he said. The UK has no plans to send fighter jets to Ukraine, according to the prime minister's official spokesman. But No 10 said elementary training for Ukrainian pilots would begin this summer, along with British efforts to work with other countries on providing F-16 jets to Ukraine. The prime minister's official spokesman also denied that any drones supplied by the UK would be used to hit targets inside Russia. They would be used for the defence of Ukraine on Ukrainian sovereign territory, the spokesman said. Mr Sunak said: "This is a crucial moment in Ukraine's resistance to a terrible war of aggression they did not choose or provoke. "They need the sustained support of the international community to defend against the barrage of unrelenting and indiscriminate attacks that have been their daily reality for over a year." In response, Russia said the new British weapons due to be supplied to Kyiv would only cause "further destruction". "Britain aspires to position itself at the forefront of the countries that continue to pump weapons into Ukraine," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said. European support Ukraine secured a new defence aid package from Germany after talks in Berlin with Chancellor Olaf Scholz on Sunday, taking its total military funding to nearly $7bn (£6.44bn). Mr Zelensky described the new pledge of German Leopard tanks and anti-aircraft systems as "the largest since the beginning of the full-scale aggression" by Russia in February 2022. France has promised dozens more light tanks and armoured vehicles after President Emmanuel Macron met his Ukrainian counterpart in Paris. In February, Mr Zelensky visited London for the first time since the start of the war, during which he attended an audience with the King and addressed Parliament. His latest visit to the UK comes ahead of a G7 gathering in Hiroshima, Japan, later this week which will also be attended by Mr Sunak. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-65594540

A wildlife photographer in Alaska caught two massive male grizzly bears on video in what he said was "the longest, most intense bear interaction I have ever witnessed." On May 8, Brad Josephs(opens in new tab) was visiting Lake Clark National Park and Preserve in southern Alaska when he caught the two grizzly bears (Ursus arctos horribilis) going head-to-head in a show of dominance during mating season, according to Outside magazine(opens in new tab). The fight wasn't between equals, either; one male was larger and older while the other was smaller and younger, according to PetaPixel(opens in new tab). "It just kept going and going,” Josephs told Outside magazine. “I was astounded by the determination and stamina of both bears as they battled for mating season dominance rights." Related: Hungry grizzly bear photo-bombs camera trap in award-winning photo The heart-pounding video, which lasts nearly nine minutes, begins with the two males posturing on all fours before eventually standing on their hind legs and wrestling each other. At one point, the bears can be seen catching their breath before going in for round two. On average, grizzly bears stand at 3 to 5 feet (0.9 to 1.5 meters) tall at the shoulder when on all fours, but can reach a height of nearly 9 feet (2.7 m) on their hind legs. Male grizzly bears can weigh up to 860 pounds (390 kilograms). Mating season for the bears usually runs from May through July and it's not uncommon for larger males to chase away smaller males, while "evenly-matched" males will fight for dominance as seen in this video, according to the North American Bear Center(opens in new tab). At the end of the video, one of the bears admits defeat and backs down by bowing his head in submission. "He's got his head down, he's basically saying, 'I'm sorry, I lost,'" Josephs said in the clip. "And the winner walks away." Alaska has the highest po[CENSORED]tion of grizzly bears in any state or province. Of the 60,000 wild grizzly bears located throughout North America, around 30,000 are found in Alaska, according to PetaPixel. https://www.livescience.com/animals/bears/watch-as-2-male-alaskan-grizzly-bears-fight-in-an-epic-battle

Lotus will launch the Type 134 as a small SUV that will become the entry point to the firm's revamped line-up and follow the launch of the Type 133 saloon next year. Lotus commercial boss Mike Johnstone said the company expects the Type 134 to account for half of its annual sales by 2028, which would put the model at about 75,000 units per year. The Geely-owned firm has yet to reveal firm details of the machine, but Johnstone hinted that it will use a different platform, which is likely to be a variant of the EPA architecture intended for smaller models. It will be less than five metres long, most likely giving it similar dimensions to the Polestar 4 and making it a rival to the upcoming Porsche Macan EV. The Type 134 will share technology with the Lotus Eletre and Type 133, although its more affordable positioning and more compact size could mean that it features smaller battery options. As with the Eletre, there is expected to be a strong focus on aerodynamics to optimise range and performance, which is likely to result in a rakish, coupé-esque roofline. While the Type 134 will be tasked with delivering the bulk of Lotus’s planned sales growth, Johnstone insisted that making sure it maintains the firm’s core philosophy of performance and driving dynamics will be at the core of development. “A lot of effort has gone into ensuring the future cars that we introduce to the market handle in a way that you would expect a Lotus to handle,” said Johnstone. “Take Eletre: the attributes team have been involved in its development, people who understand what a Lotus should feel like and drive. It isn’t just an electrified SUV with a Lotus badge on it: it’s been engineered from the beginning to look, feel and drive like a Lotus.” https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/lotus-type-134-porsche-macan-rivalling-small-electric-suv

Barcelona wrapped up their first La Liga title since 2019 on Sunday with a victory at local rivals Espanyol. But for a team that has just matched a 21st-century record by becoming champions with four games to spare, it has been an unconvincing campaign which, looking to the future, leaves more questions than answers. Barca are celebrating the title with an unsettling sense of 'what next?' BBC Sport looks at the dilemmas facing coach Xavi and president Joan Laporta in the coming months. Barcelona crowned La Liga champions after derby win Another defensive reshuffle? The main reason for Barca's title triumph is a phenomenal defensive effort - they have won 11 games with a 1-0 scoreline and,with just 13 goals against, they are set to smash La Liga's record of 18 goals conceded in a season. That defensive excellence followed a major reshuffle in the backline, with impressive youngster Alex Balde displacing Jordi Alba at left-back, summer signing Jules Kounde proving his quality at right-back and another new arrival, Andreas Christensen, enjoying an excellent first season in Spain to help protect superb goalkeeper Marc-Andre ter Stegen. But Kounde was originally signed as a central defender and the consensus is that his longer-term future should lie in that position alongside Uruguayan powerhouse Ronald Araujo. Indeed, Kounde has been filling in - for a whole season - at right-back because of the squad's lack of other candidates for that position. Last summer's signing of Hector Bellerin worked out so badly that he was shipped out to Sporting in January after just three league appearances. Recruiting a right-back, therefore, remains a priority, as it really has been ever since Dani Alves first left the club in 2016, and outstanding Girona starlet Arnau Martinez has been heavily linked. But that would mean breaking up a record-setting back four, and would also require something Barca don't have: money. Midfield style to be defined? Quite a few euros will be saved from the wage bill with the departure of club captain Sergio Busquets, who announced this week that he will leave at the end of the season. But that also presents the obvious dilemma of how to replace a player who, despite increasingly obvious physical shortcomings, has remained an automatic first choice for Xavi and each manager before him. Manchester City's out of contract captain Ilkay Gundogan has been widely tipped to join on a free transfer this summer, and his arrival alongside the excellent existing trio of Frenkie De Jong, Pedri and Gavi, and the additional options of Sergi Roberto and Franck Kessie, would leave the midfield well stocked. The bigger question, though, is not 'who?', but 'how?' Barca's traditional midfield approach, heavily based on strict positional play, has looked out of place amid the more dynamic demands of modern football, and even the passing purist Xavi has compromised his beliefs this season by fielding four midfielders in a box shape to provide greater strength in the centre of the pitch. That has often led to a lack of attacking fluidity - hence all those 1-0 victories - and the challenge for Xavi is to implement a style that is more pleasing on the eye without losing the new defensive solidity on which their title win has been based. Busquets's exit might be the catalyst for a significant change of approach. Messi back, everyone else out? Ah yes, him. The question of whether Lionel Messi should be brought back to Barcelona at the end of his mixed stint at Paris St-Germain hangs over everything else that will happen this summer. The abrupt manner of his departure two years ago was unsatisfactory from everybody's perspective. So should the club's greatest-ever player be allowed to make a triumphant return and finish his career at his true footballing home? It seems an easy one. But it isn't. Firstly from a pure sporting point of view, where does 36-year-old Messi fit into Xavi's demands for a high-tempo pressing game? This issue is heightened as he would be lining up alongside another veteran forward who has shown worrying signs of slowing down in recent months, Robert Lewandowski. The financial aspect is even trickier. As things stand Barca will need to sell players, not sign them, to meet La Liga's strict Financial Fair Play rules, and even if Messi accepts a substantial pay cut he would still expect to be the club's highest earner. To finance that, three players in particular look expendable: Ferran Torres has only made a modest impact since his arrival from Manchester City in January 2022, Ansu Fati has looked a shadow of his young self since returning from injury, and Raphinha has only been a regular starter when Ousmane Dembele - Xavi's first-choice on the right wing - has been injured. So, if tempting offers are received, should Barca offload two or three of them in order to sign Messi? A summer of twists and turns lies ahead. Behind-the-scenes uncertainty The club's plans for the upcoming market have been thrown into further uncertainty by the sudden resignation of director of football Mateu Alemany, who has overseen Barca's signings and sales for the past two seasons. The highly rated Alemany is believed to hold differences of opinion with club president Laporta over transfer strategy, including his reported opposition to the recruitment of Messi, and looks set to take a similar role at Aston Villa. For now, then, it's unclear who will be responsible for making and breaking deals during the summer window, with well-connected former star player Deco supposedly a candidate to replace Alemany at the end of June. To complicate matters further, Barca are on the move: the Nou Camp will be closed for at least a year for extensive redevelopment, with home games instead played at the city's Olympic Stadium, which will first host summer concerts by Coldplay, Beyonce and Harry Styles. It's an evocative and attractive old stadium romantically perched high on a hill overlooking the city centre but - with running track included - seems unlikely to be an intimidating venue for opposition teams. And the impact of their temporary stadium is just one of the uncertainties facing La Liga's new champions, even while the celebratory Cava is still freshly flowing. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/65570735

A Nigerian chef has become a national sensation after cooking non-stop for more than 90 hours in an attempt to break the world record. Hilda Baci has used over 100 different dishes since turning on her cooker at 15:00 GMT on Thursday. Politicians and celebrities have been egging her on, as has the boisterous crowd watching her cook. The current record is 87 hours and 45 minutes set in Rewa, central India in 2019 by Indian chef Lata Tondon. Guinness World Records says it is reviewing the evidence before saying if she has broken the record. Though no officials of the organisation are at the venue in the upmarket area of Lekki in Lagos, CCTV cameras have been installed to monitor the event. Baci, 27, initially planned to cook for 96 hours - until 15:00GMT on Monday. But the crowd camped outside the venue persuaded her to keep going until she hit the 100-hour mark. She has cooked mostly Nigerian meals, such as jollof rice, as well as different types of rice and pasta, and has also made akara - a po[CENSORED]r street food made from deep-fried mashed beans. The food is being handed out to invited guests. She is allowed one assistant at a time, and can take a five-minute break each hour, or the equivalent over several hours. "This attempt is proof of the strength young people can exhibit with the right platform and support," the chef told BBC News Pidgin before starting her marathon cooking session. Baci is showing visible signs of the physical exertion and is getting cold compresses applied to her head, and foot massages during her breaks. A medical assistant is also checking her vital signs. Her attempt has captivated the country, with politicians and celebrities stopping by to cheer her on. Lagos state governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu was at the venue on Sunday, and she also received a call from Nigeria's Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo. "We are proud to have Hilda embarking on this journey in our state. I will continue to follow the updates and look forward to the final declaration," Mr Sanwo-Olu said. Baci is no stranger to the heat of competitive kitchen events. In 2021 she defeated other contestants at the maiden edition of the "Jollof Faceoff", including a Ghanaian rival in the final, to claim the crown for the best version of West Africa's fiercely contested spicy rice meal. She said her passion for cooking was inspired by her mother's culinary techniques and that her recipes were homemade. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-65595672
