A fresh wave of US tariffs on a wide array of Canadian goods came into effect on Saturday after a last-minute breakdown in trade talks.

Announcing the suspension of negotiations shortly before the Friday night deadline, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said he would impose reciprocal tariffs on US goods "dollar for dollar" and that "last-minute changes in the US proposed terms were unfair, uneconomic, and called into question the reliability of any deal".

US President Donald Trump had temporarily paused those tariffs earlier in the week, saying the two sides were close to signing a trade deal that was "very good" for both countries.

But minutes before the deadline for a deal, Carney said that while "important progress" had been made in the talks it was "not enough to meet our objectives for Canadians".

At least 15 people have been killed in two Russian drone strikes on a shopping centre in the central Ukrainian city of Kryvyi Rih, according to local officials have said.

Another 130 people - including 23 children - were injured in the city's biggest mall.

The shopping mall is in President Volodymyr Zelensky’s home town. He called it "absolutely cynical and despicable”. Ukrainian authorities said a second drone struck the building, targeting emergency workers at the scene.

Dramatic footage verified by the BBC appears to show the second drone hitting the burning shopping centre in the Dnipropetrovsk region.

Ukraine has in recent months carried out attacks on warehouses of Russia’s largest online retailer Wildberries.

Its latest strikes targeted an oil refinery and a military airfield deep inside Russia. Ukraine has been systematically targeting Russia’s energy supplies, leading to severe petrol shortages. Russia’s President Putin has admitted the attacks are damaging the country’s economy.

Clive Myrie presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Dan Johnson in Kyiv and Steve Rosenberg in Moscow.

US Vice President JD Vance says the Iran War is in a ‘new phase’ of economic pressure.

It comes as US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has said: “You are either with us or against us," as he urged US allies to support Washington's efforts to "squash" the Iranian economy.

But the Iranian Foreign Ministry has called the measures ‘economic terrorism’.

The BBC has also heard from people inside Iran on what life is like for them.

Attorney General Todd Blanche won’t pledge to act “independently” from the White House during an interview with NBC’s Meet the Press. Trump’s former personal attorney said no attorney general should ever “pledge” to act independently from the White House, but assured the public that the president would never ask to do “something illegal”.

Blanche’s comments have sparked a debate over the extent to which the justice department should be free from White House control. This comes at a time when Blanche was criticised for helping set up an “anti weaponisation fund” to compensate people who Trump claims were unfairly targeted by the previous Biden administration, such as Jan 6th rioters. There are also fears among Epstein survivors that Blanche - who was criticised for interviewing Ghislane Maxwell in prison - could affect their pursuit of justice.

And, a major legal case brought by 29 US states against Meta has begun, which could affect the way social media companies operate in the future. The states involved claim that Meta - which owns Facebook and Instagram - violated federal and state privacy laws for children and are seeking billions of dollars in damages as well as changes to user experience.

How did a 16-year-old girl with no prior online presence manage to gain more than 700k TikTok followers within a week of her first post?

Pakistan's former Prime Minister Imran Khan was moved back to prison early on Friday after being examined by doctors at a hospital in Islamabad, who deemed him "medically fit".

The Supreme Court had on Tuesday ordered the cricketer-turned-politician be taken to a specific private hospital within 48 hours to be examined by physicians, following complaints about his health.

It was the most significant relief Khan has received from the courts since he was imprisoned in 2023 on corruption charges, which he says were politically motivated.

As well as being transferred to hospital, the court order also specified Khan should be allowed to see his family, which he has not been able to do in months.
