Zelensky repeats call for truce after Russian attack

We hear how Ukrainians are feeling after another huge attack by Russia

Ukraine says its energy and gas infrastructure has again been attacked by Russian missiles and drones. Elsewhere, the US and Ukraine have said they will hold talks in Saudi Arabia next Tuesday to discuss a potential ceasefire with Russia - delegations for both Washington and Kyiv will be in attendance. We speak to our correspondent who's been travelling with Zelensky's team, and hear from Ukrainians on how they're feeling about what's been happening.

Eurostar services to and from Paris have been cancelled for the rest of the day after an unexploded World War Two bomb was found near Gare du Nord station. We speak to people around the world who defuse old bombs about the realities and challenges of the job.

And we hear from women in Afghanistan about how their lives have changed in the years since the Taliban took power.
