Two Wildberries warehouses were hit by Ukrainian strikes overnight on Monday, with another site apparently linked to Russia's largest online retailer also damaged near Moscow.

Ukraine has been targeting facilities operated by the company - often dubbed the "Russian Amazon" - in recent weeks.

At least five people were killed and 10 more injured at an industrial site about 69km (43 miles) south of the Kremlin, local officials said, without confirming it was run by Wildberries.

Elsewhere, officials did confirm two other Wildberries sites were hit in the St Petersburg and Tver regions.

Kyiv says the depots supply the Russian military, which Moscow denies.

A group of 25 Democrat-led US states are suing President Donald Trump's administration in an effort to block his latest round of trade tariffs.

The White House says the levies - which target 59 countries and the European Union - were imposed on nations that had not done enough to crack down on imports produced by forced labour. Among the countries affected are the UK, China, India, Canada and Mexico.

The states' lawsuit claims that President Trump's tariffs are "arbitrary, capricious, and contrary to law", accusing the administration of using the forced labour issue as a "pretext" to replace the "Liberation Day" tariffs, which the US Supreme Court struck down in February.

White House spokesman Kush Desai has said that the government is "using its lawful authority to obtain the elimination of unreasonable acts, policies, and practices that burden U.S. commerce".

We speak to our North America correspondent Anthony Zurcher.

Why did tens of thousands of migrants from Morocco suddenly attempt to cross into the Spanish enclave of Ceuta by sea last week?

In the days since the sudden border crisis left at least 72 people dead, a variety of theories have circulated.

The Trump administration blamed the incident on “radical left-wing globalist policies”, and many European leaders condemned what they say is Spain’s lax immigration policy.

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez denied those claims and blamed trafficking gangs. Others have blamed Morocco, and accused it of ‘weaponising’ migrants for political purposes.

We speak to the BBC’s Southern and Eastern Europe correspondent, Sarah Rainsford, to find out how and why the Ceuta crisis happened.

21:02 How Donald Trump got involved

In the last two months, dozens of people have been killed across the region in clashes between security officials and protesters from the group Joint Awami Action Committee (JAAC). Pakistan-administered Kashmir is home to about 4.5 million people, and there are currently elections taking place there.

Protesters from the JAAC say the demonstrations are about their rights, with concerns including electricity prices, education and health care. An agreement signed with the Pakistan and PAK governments back in October was meant to help. The JAAC says it's not been implemented.

The local government disagrees. They say the group is armed and that this is about disrupting the ongoing polls. And they are not willing to let the protesters march to the regional capital, Muzaffarabad.

The BBC is the first media organisation to gain access to Rawalakot and speak to those at the heart of the protests.

Scottish 50m breaststroke holder Archie Goodburn has asked UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham to invest more money and resources into brain cancer research.

The 25-year-old was diagnosed with inoperable brain tumours just over two years ago and has since passionately advocated for an increased focus on the disease.

"Andy Burnham, if you believe and want to make a change and a difference to the future of our country and our young population, please listen to us," Goodburn said.

At least five people were killed and 10 more injured in a Ukrainian drone strike on a warehouse close to Moscow overnight on Monday, the region's governor has said.

The official did not specify what had been targeted but Ukraine has been carrying out strikes on facilities operated by Wildberries in recent weeks, often dubbed the "Russian Amazon".

Kyiv says the depots are used to supply the Russian military, which Moscow denies.

Local officials also said Wildberries warehouses were targeted in the St Petersburg and Tver regions overnight.

Russia also launched strikes against parts of Ukraine, killing at least four and injuring several people.

Can you drink alcohol on weight loss jabs? Do they cause hair loss? And are the new pills just as effective as injections?

In June 2026, the UK's medicines regulator approved the first GLP-1 weight-loss pill, adding to a fast-growing range of treatments that are changing how obesity is managed.

But alongside all the hype, there's also a lot of confusion.

BBC Health Correspondent Dominic Hughes answers the biggest questions people are asking about GLP-1 medicines.

A drone has hit a busy beach in southern Russia, exploding in a fireball on impact. The local governor said seven people including three children were killed and 40 injured.

He accused Ukraine of "a deliberate strike on civilians, while Russia's foreign ministry called it an act of terrorism. Ukraine has not commented. Both Ukraine and Russia deny targeting civilians deliberately.

In social media footage verified by the BBC, a drone can be seen hurtling towards a cliffside before exploding on the beach below as tourists look on from the shore and in the water.

It is unclear what the drone was targeting. Some Ukrainian Telegram channels have claimed it crashed onto the beach as a result of electronic warfare which jammed the drone's signal. Several eyewitnesses were quoted by Russian media as saying gunfire preceded the explosion, indicating that the drone may have been shot down.

The crash occurred on a beach near the village of Arkhipo-Osipovka on the Black Sea. With its warm climate, long beaches and developed tourist infrastructure it is a popular holiday destination for Russians, in particular since sanctions have curtailed international travel for many.

In the last year Ukraine has had increasing success in carrying out long-range strikes deep into Russia, hitting energy infrastructure and commercial warehouses it says are used for military purposes. These strikes have caused civilian deaths, with eight people in different Russian cities killed at the weekend.

Russia has repeatedly launched attacks on residential areas and cities from the start of its invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, killing and injuring many civilians.

Recent Ukrainian strikes have targeted warehouses belonging to Wildberries – a large online retailer known as the "Russian Amazon". Kyiv says Wildberries depots are used to supply the Russian military, which Moscow denies.

Reform UK have announced plans to use the Navy to stop small boat crossings.

They suggest, that if they are elected, military personnel would accompany migrants back across the English channel, overriding French objections if necessary.

Their opponents have said the plans are unworkable and come at a time when the party has been under pressure.

Nigel Farage has been facing questions about his handling of donations and the party’s finances have been under wider scrutiny.

James and Henry unpack the policy and look at why Reform has had a difficult summer.

Plus, what happened when around 60,000 migrants tried to cross into Spanish territory from Morocco in one go?

James is joined by Aitor Hernández-Morales, senior reporter at Politico and Greg Holyoke, Middle East North Africa specialist for BBC Monitoring to discuss Thursday’s migration crisis in Ceuta.

00:43 What have Reform UK announced?

05:15 Are their plans legal?

10:55 Nigel Farage asked about party finances

21:40 Why have they crossed over?

28:40 What have Spain and the EU said?

Iran says it is negotiating with Oman to reach "an understanding" over a temporary route through the Strait of Hormuz to allow commercial shipping to resume.

The statement came after US President Donald Trump said new talks on ending the war in Iran would begin on Monday - and that he had called off "massive" strikes on the country for this purpose.

Trump did not specify who would take part in the talks. Iran, however, said it was not negotiating with the US - and had no plans to do so.

Tehran's denial appears to have enraged the US president, who later wrote on his Truth Social media platform that Iran's leadership was "unbelievably duplicitous".
