00:01:02Primetime. It's both the most terrifying terrifying thing that can happen happen to you, whether you're if
00:01:06if you're a parent or even if you're
00:01:07you're not. It's like the. It's like
00:01:11like the most unimaginable sin possible.
00:01:22possible. Hello and a very warm welcome welcome to BBC News. I'm Mark Logan.
00:01:25Logan. We're beginning in Ukraine Ukraine because Kyiv is accusing
00:01:29accusing Russia of ongoing deadly deadly attacks despite a so-called
00:01:32so-called energy ceasefire proposed proposed by President Trump. Volodymyr
00:01:36Volodymyr Zelensky said Russia struck struck power plants following the
00:01:39the announcement and has continued continued to strike civilian areas.
00:01:42areas. This footage shows damage damage from an industrial site near
00:01:45near Kyiv. Yesterday, President Trump
00:01:48Trump posted this, claiming the two two sides agreed to stop attacks
00:01:52attacks on energy facilities effective effective immediately. But the Kremlin
00:01:54Kremlin has yet to comment. Mr Zelensky Zelensky said the announcement was
00:01:58was news to him, but that Ukraine Ukraine would support a ceasefire
00:02:01ceasefire if Russia sticks to the the terms. Relations between Mr Zelensky
00:02:04Zelensky and Mr Trump have deteriorated deteriorated as the US President
00:02:08President tries to get the cost of of oil and diesel down before the
00:02:12the US mid-term elections. Here's
00:02:13Here's Dan Johnson from Kyiv. On
00:02:16On the edge of Kharkiv. Last night.
00:02:21night. A reminder Russia has not
00:02:23not stopped attacking Ukraine. This
00:02:27This woman was filming after the
00:02:29the sirens asking where would be
00:02:32be hit. She was lucky to survive
00:02:34survive a strike on a shop that killed
00:02:37killed three people and injured more
00:02:39more than 20. This just hours after
00:02:42after Donald Trump announced his
00:02:44his partial truce on Truth Social.
00:02:48Social. He wrote effective immediately, immediately, there is an energy ceasefire
00:02:50ceasefire in the war between Russia Russia and Ukraine. Both parties
00:02:54parties have agreed. Do not break
00:02:58break it. Ukraine's been targeting
00:03:01targeting Russian oil refineries refineries in response to attacks
00:03:03attacks on its own power grid. Ukraine Ukraine said it was ready to cease
00:03:07cease if Russia did the same. But But Donald Trump's announcement appeared
00:03:10appeared to come as a surprise to
00:03:13to President Zelensky. Ukraine is
00:03:16is ready to refrain from striking striking Russia's energy infrastructure,
00:03:20infrastructure, and we expect Russia Russia to show the same readiness
00:03:23readiness and honour the agreement agreement reached with the President
00:03:26President of the United States. He
00:03:29He better damn well stop. It was
00:03:31was a tense weekend of fractured fractured US Ukraine relations. I
00:03:35I suggest they get a new leader who
00:03:37who can make a deal. The row started
00:03:40started when Donald Trump lifted lifted export restrictions on Russian
00:03:43Russian diesel. Many believe to ease
00:03:45ease fuel prices driven up by the
00:03:48the war in Iran. In Kyiv, the streets
00:03:53streets have fallen dark and quiet
00:03:55quiet as its power network has been
00:03:57been pounded. Many people here are are without light, heat or water
00:04:01water because electricity is needed needed to pump it. Ukrainians were
00:04:04were braced for a very difficult difficult few months ahead into the
00:04:08the winter. So there's a lot riding riding on this ceasefire. But even
00:04:11even if it holds, the war is not
00:04:14not over. That was hammered home
00:04:18home with more drones heading for
00:04:20for the capital. And within two hours
00:04:25hours this was Kharkiv's main power power station, leaving Ukrainians
00:04:29Ukrainians questioning what impact impact this ceasefire will have.
00:04:32have. Dan Johnson, BBC News in Kyiv. Kyiv. And we'll be speaking to Dan
00:04:35Dan in Kyiv in just a few moments.
00:04:37moments. So do stay with us for that.
00:04:40that. Now Yemen's Houthi rebels have
00:04:43have renewed their warnings against against using Saudi airports after
00:04:46after two deadly strikes on Riyadh's Riyadh's main international airport
00:04:49airport in as many days. Saudi officials officials say one person was killed
00:04:53killed and 11 were wounded in an an attack on King Khalid International
00:04:57International Airport on Sunday. Sunday. That came a day after 13
00:04:5913 people were killed and more than than 300 injured in a missile strike,
00:05:03strike, the deadliest attack on Saudi Saudi soil in more than a decade.
00:05:06decade. We've received CCTV pictures pictures of the moment of Saturday's
00:05:10Saturday's attack. We're choosing choosing not to show you some of
00:05:12of these as they're too distressing. distressing. But in this footage

00:05:19do manage to get up and escape after after the bright orange flash of

00:05:28targeting Saudi Arabia over its support support for government forces in
00:05:31in Yemen's civil war. In a post on
00:05:33on X Britain's embassy in Saudi Arabia
00:05:36Arabia advises British citizens against against all but essential travel
00:05:39travel to Jeddah, Dammam and all all airports in the kingdom except
00:05:42except for Medina. Here's our world
00:05:43world news correspondent Joe Inwood.
00:05:46Inwood. Saturday morning, one. Of Of Saudi Arabia's busiest airports.

00:07:07the Red Sea. Saudi Arabia responded
00:07:10responded with air strikes. The Houthis Houthis have been firing back. As
00:07:13As we've seen this weekend, President
00:07:16President Trump is an ally of the the Saudis. He condemned the attack
00:07:19attack on Riyadh airport but did
00:07:21did not say he would get involved. involved. I think it's terrible,
00:07:24terrible, terrible. The Saudis able able to defend themselves. Well.
00:07:28Well. They're able to defend look, look, the Saudis are good fighters.
00:07:32fighters. But I think the attack attack was a terrible thing. This
00:07:35This attack was the most severe on on Saudi soil in over a decade. Some
00:07:39Some of those killed are now being
00:07:41being identified. One of them, Buthaina Buthaina Awada, was a mother of four
00:07:45four from Syria. She was a victim victim of a conflict that she had
00:07:48had no part in. But that seems to
00:07:51to be escalating dangerously. Joe
00:07:54Joe Inwood, BBC News. Let's bring bring in our Middle East correspondent correspondent Yolande Knell live
00:07:58live with us from Jerusalem. Hi Yolande. Yolande. Two serious attacks in,
00:08:02in, in within two days. How serious
00:08:03serious an escalation is this? It's
00:08:07It's a very serious escalation, Mark. Mark. I mean, this is the deadliest
00:08:10deadliest single attack that there's there's been on any Gulf Arab countries
00:08:14countries since the US and Israel Israel started their attacks on Iran,
00:08:18Iran, triggering the Iran war at at the very end of February. It's It's the deadliest attack there's
00:08:22there's been on Saudi Arabia in more
00:08:24more than a decade. And it's really
00:08:27really worrying other Gulf Arab countries countries as well. With the United
00:08:30United Arab Emirates presidential presidential adviser commenting on
00:08:34on that earlier. The big question question now is about whether other
00:08:38other allies of Saudi Arabia are are ready to get more involved. It
00:08:41It has asked countries the UK, France,
00:08:44France, Egypt, Pakistan to help out
00:08:46out with its air defences because because although it does have advanced
00:08:50advanced air defence systems, you you know, there are questions being being raised about how it did not
00:08:53not manage to intercept these attacks
00:08:55attacks on its airports hitting terminal terminal three and four over the
00:08:59the past couple of days, stopping
00:09:01stopping flights going in and out
00:09:03out of Riyadh. We'll of course, President President Trump get more involved.
00:09:07involved. He's indicated that he he is weighing up his options, but but there's been nothing new from
00:09:11from the White House in the past past day on this. And Yolande, you
00:09:14you mentioned the most serious attacks attacks in the Gulf since the Iran
00:09:17Iran war began. It is relatively relatively quiet at the moment inside
00:09:21inside Iran. But this, I suppose suppose is is a continuation of the
00:09:24the Iran war, albeit by proxy with
00:09:27with Iran arming and backing the
00:09:29the Houthis. And of course, Saudis Saudis being the key ally of the
00:09:33the Americans in the region. Yes.
00:09:35Yes. I mean, this is a war that predates
00:09:39predates the one with Iran goes back
00:09:42back to 2015, but then really, you
00:09:44you know, when there was in 2022 2022 a ceasefire that was brokered
00:09:48brokered that pretty much froze the the front lines. But that cease fire
00:09:52fire could not stand up under the
00:09:54the pressure this summer as the regional
00:09:56regional war with Iran was really really escalating, the Houthis starting
00:09:59starting to get more involved. Then, Then, of course, last month, what
00:10:01what we saw is those major territorial
00:10:05territorial gains of theirs, particularly particularly along the Red Sea coast.
00:10:08coast. And then this month, the Saudi
00:10:10Saudi backed, internationally recognised recognised government has really
00:10:14really launched its counter-offensive counter-offensive against that. So So there have been these fierce battles
00:10:17battles that have been going on inside
00:10:21inside Yemen, alongside the attacks attacks that the Houthis have been
00:10:23been launching on the Saudis. Now, Now, what is important here is that
00:10:26that although the Houthis are considered
00:10:28considered to be a proxy of Iran,
00:10:31Iran, they do have, of course, their
00:10:33their own agenda. And we have had
00:10:35had experts commenting clearly that
00:10:37that while Iran, of course, has considerable considerable influence, it has been
00:10:40been arming the Houthis. It does does not call the shots here. You
00:10:43You land in Jerusalem. Thanks very
00:10:46very much. Let's go back to our top
00:10:48top story. The aftermath of that that so-called energy cease fire
00:10:52fire announcement in Ukraine by President President Trump. Let's go live to
00:10:55to Kyiv and speak to Dan Johnson. Johnson. Who's there? Hi, Dan. How
00:10:59How has the night been? Yeah, there
00:11:04there were further attacks on the the energy network across Ukraine
00:11:08Ukraine and on other targets too. too. So the early signs for this
00:11:11this cease fire are not good. Ukrainians Ukrainians were doubtful. They seem
00:11:13seem to have been taken by surprise surprise by Donald Trump's announcement.
00:11:17announcement. They will have hoped hoped that this can have an effect
00:11:20effect because they're feeling the the impact of power cuts already
00:11:23already and were braced for a very very difficult winter if Russia continued
00:11:27continued hitting the energy network. network. So in the best scenario,
00:11:30scenario, Donald Trump has announced announced something here, perhaps perhaps prematurely, but may be able
00:11:34able to will it into existence the the sort of way he's done diplomacy
00:11:38diplomacy in the past. If it doesn't doesn't work, it will be embarrassing embarrassing for Donald Trump and
00:11:42and presumably he'll need to find find someone to blame. And the Ukrainians
00:11:44Ukrainians fear that it'll be them
00:11:46them who get that blame. Now, whether whether this can actually come into
00:11:50into existence, be a reality and and have an impact is all down to
00:11:53to the Russians and what they decide decide to do. They've made no comment comment on this deal at all, and
00:11:57and we have very little detail. The The fact that they attacked at least
00:12:00least two more power stations in in the early hours of this cease cease fire. It's not a good sign,
00:12:05sign, but after that it's been a a reasonably quiet night, although although there have been further
00:12:08further Russian attacks on other other targets. Even if this does
00:12:12does work out, it doesn't mean the the war is over. Russia presumably
00:12:15presumably will continue firing drones drones and missiles at other targets,
00:12:18targets, and we'll have more of them them to use at whatever it chooses
00:12:21chooses to aim at next. Dan, you you talk about President Trump blaming
00:12:24blaming Ukraine. He did plenty of
00:12:26of that in the last 48 hours, hitting
00:12:29hitting out at Ukraine's president, president, talking about time for
00:12:32for a new leader because of Zelensky's
00:12:34Zelensky's condemnation of that diesel diesel deal with Russia. Just give
00:12:37give us a sense of the reaction in
00:12:39in Ukraine to Donald Trump's latest
00:12:43latest outburst. Yeah, it was a pretty
00:12:46pretty ugly weekend of tit-for-tat tit-for-tat back and forth between
00:12:49between the two presidents Zelensky Zelensky calling Donald Trump weak
00:12:52weak for the deal that he did with
00:12:54with Vladimir Putin to lift the restrictions
00:12:56restrictions on Russian diesel. President President Trump then calling for
00:12:59for elections for President Zelensky Zelensky to go for Ukraine to have
00:13:02have a new leader. It sounds like like behind the scenes there was was pressure being applied on Ukrainians
00:13:06Ukrainians to go along with this this deal even before they'd properly
00:13:09properly signed up to it. There were were threats, apparently, that America
00:13:12America would stop their access to to intelligence and weapons if they
00:13:16they didn't cease their attacks on
00:13:17on Russia's oil refineries and energy
00:13:21energy infrastructure. Whenever Donald Donald Trump has that sort of row
00:13:23row and slaps down President Zelensky, Zelensky, it tends to unite Ukrainians
00:13:27Ukrainians behind him. And we've we've seen that again. They were
00:13:30were all aware of how difficult the the winter could be. So I think the
00:13:34the Ukrainians have taken a sensible sensible position that this is what
00:13:36what they'd been calling for. It's It's what they wanted, and there's
00:13:39there's a small chance that it may may work out. But that is all in
00:13:42in the hands of Vladimir Putin and and the Russians to see what they
00:13:46they do next in terms of which targets targets they now focus on. Dan Johnson
00:13:49Johnson in Kyiv. Thanks very much.
00:13:52much. We're going to take a short
00:13:53short break back in a moment or two.
00:14:56On notice. How far might Putin go to test Nato? And is Europe ready? ready? The Security Brief live with
00:14:59with an audience here on BBC News.
00:15:07News. Welcome back to BBC News. Nato
00:15:10Nato Supreme Allied commander for for Europe is due to set out the
00:15:13the alliance's new strategy for combating combating ongoing Russian aggression
00:15:16aggression in Poland in the coming coming hours. Speaking to the BBC's
00:15:19BBC's Security Brief, the general's general's deputy Air Chief Marshal
00:15:23Marshal Sir Johnny Stringer, said said the so-called theory of victory
00:15:26victory strategy would aim to streamline streamline operations across land,
00:15:29land, sea, air, space and cyber in
00:15:32in order to outthink and outact against
00:15:35against Nato's adversaries. He's He's been speaking to the security
00:15:39security briefs Christian Fraser Fraser and Mikey Kay about the significance
00:15:42significance of the new strategy.
00:15:45strategy. And the concept that the the title of Theory of Victory goes
00:15:48goes goes back in military thinking
00:15:50thinking many, many decades. It kind
00:15:52kind of set out the main tenets of
00:15:55of how a commander would see him
00:15:58him using his forces, most obviously
00:16:02obviously for General Grinkevich Grinkevich in the defensive alliance
00:16:05alliance that is Nato in the deterrent
00:16:07deterrent sense. But make no mistake,
00:16:10mistake, if we had to fight any adversary,
00:16:12adversary, we fight to win and we we fight to restore deterrence. So
00:16:16So the tenets of a theory of victory victory and what I think you will
00:16:20will see my boss having set out is
00:16:23is integrating effects across what what we would call the domains. So
00:16:27So the traditional of air, land and
00:16:31and maritime, but increasingly important important of course, space and cyber
00:16:35cyber almost to underpin all. So
00:16:37So Johnny, I want to I want to hit
00:16:40hit the drone threat question on on the nose. We know that we know
00:16:44know that Russia is capable of putting
00:16:46putting 1500 drones into Ukraine Ukraine in a 24 hour period. If that
00:16:50that same number of drones came over
00:16:52over the border tonight into Nato
00:16:55Nato territory, could Nato stop them?
00:16:58them? And if they can, with what?
00:17:00what? So I think your question goes
00:17:03goes to two points of, if I may.
00:17:05may. The first, obviously on uncrewed uncrewed systems and maybe we'll
00:17:09we'll return to that, which is a
00:17:11a truism across all domains and has
00:17:14has been apparent for at least 20
00:17:1620 years, even if the scale has differed
00:17:19differed to the particular question question on air defence. And it comes
00:17:22comes back to what I said about that that period of peace. We were able
00:17:26able to think of the employment of, of, in this case, most obviously
00:17:30obviously fighter jets in the role
00:17:32role of air policing. It almost had
00:17:34had that constabulary comfortable
00:17:36comfortable feel about it. What Ukraine
00:17:40Ukraine sadly has shown is. And Russian
00:17:43Russian aggression is that actually actually we need to re adopt an air
00:17:46air defence mindset. So to your point,
00:17:50point, one of the things that you you are already seeing is how we
00:17:54we are re posturing the forces that
00:17:56that we've got bringing in new systems
00:17:58systems to augment them because we've we've got to recognise that a threat
00:18:02threat that people would have been
00:18:04been comfortable with even maybe
00:18:06maybe five years ago in terms of
00:18:08of the capability that an adversary
00:18:10adversary had and all the scale at
00:18:13at which they could employ it now now ranges down to incredibly cheap
00:18:16cheap drones. At one end of the spectrum spectrum to ballistic missiles at
00:18:20at the other, and pretty much to
00:18:21to all points in between. So there's
00:18:25there's been significant work that's that's gone on in my part of Nato
00:18:28Nato and allied command operations
00:18:31operations to bring forces in all
00:18:33all of the domains back to those
00:18:36those five warfighting domains that that Nato recognises to make sure
00:18:40sure that the capability we put up
00:18:41up is as strong as it can be. And
00:18:45And remember, tomorrow is going to to be better than today. So this
00:18:48this doesn't stop that thinking applied
00:18:51applied to bringing in capability capability to the operational concepts
00:18:54concepts to make sure that we can can meet and beat any threat that
00:18:58that comes at us. And there's more more of that interview on the BBC
00:19:02BBC News YouTube channel and a reminder reminder that the Security Brief
00:19:04Brief is going live in front of a a studio audience tonight. You can
00:19:08can watch that here on BBC News, News, BBC iPlayer and the BBC News
00:19:11News YouTube channel today at 7:30pm
00:19:147:30pm UK time. Christine and Mikey Mikey will be taking you inside the
00:19:17the war in Ukraine with live analysis
00:19:20analysis and a panel of guests. Now
00:19:24Now a BBC investigation has revealed revealed that the world's biggest
00:19:27biggest accountancy firm helped falsify falsify documents that allowed the
00:19:30the former Chelsea Football Club
00:19:32Club owner Roman Abramovich to hide
00:19:34hide his wealth and evade tax. BBC BBC Panorama has uncovered hundreds
00:19:38hundreds of documents that were backdated backdated by the Russian billionaires
00:19:41billionaires advisers. Many were were drawn up with the help of Deloitte
00:19:44Deloitte Deloitte. Roman Abramovich Abramovich denies any wrongdoing
00:19:47wrongdoing and Deloitte says it complies
00:19:49complies with applicable laws. Richard
00:19:51Richard Bilton has this report. Things
00:19:55Things have changed for Roman Abramovich. Abramovich. He has been sanctioned
00:19:59sanctioned because of his links to to Vladimir Putin. He's been forced
00:20:02forced to sell his beloved Chelsea
00:20:05Chelsea and now revelations from from inside his financial empire.
00:20:09empire. If you want to understand understand Roman Abramovich, follow
00:20:13follow the money. This is Cyprus,
00:20:15Cyprus, home to a web of companies
00:20:17companies that were holding his wealth
00:20:21wealth working with the Bureau of
00:20:23of Investigative Journalism. Panorama Panorama has been investigating a
00:20:26a data leak which shows the lengths
00:20:29lengths some of his Cypriot advisers
00:20:31advisers went to hide his billions.
00:20:33billions. They falsified and backdated backdated hundreds of documents.
00:20:37documents. It is trying to cover
00:20:39cover up something and what we appear
00:20:41appear to have here is a fiddle factory
00:20:44factory in a fiddle factory you fiddle
00:20:46fiddle the transactions, you backdate
00:20:49backdate them and that is what appears appears to have been happening here
00:20:52here regularly. In 2003, one of Roman
00:20:55Roman Abramovich's Cypriot companies
00:20:58companies called Kravin Investments Investments had almost $2 billion
00:21:02billion of his money in the bank. bank. Deloitte confirmed certain
00:21:06certain changes will have to be made
00:21:08made to the accounts. That's Deloitte
00:21:10Deloitte apparently advising on falsifying
00:21:13falsifying financial records by backdating
00:21:15backdating them. The evidence suggests
00:21:17suggests it allowed Mr Abramovich
00:21:19Abramovich to evade millions in tax.
00:21:23tax. It's a straightforward and blatant.
00:21:29blatant. Move to. Protect from legitimate
00:21:34legitimate taxation assets which which should otherwise have been
00:21:37been subject to tax. So it's tax tax evasion. Yeah. Straightforward.
00:21:40Straightforward. And how serious serious is that? Well again if it
00:21:43it happened in England and it was was in the millions His Majesty's
00:21:47Majesty's Revenue and Customs would
00:21:48would be thinking about a prosecution.
00:21:52prosecution. Roman Abramovich's lawyers lawyers say he denies he evaded tax
00:21:56tax or concealed his fortune. They
00:21:59They say he was not involved in the the day to day operation of the companies,
00:22:03companies, and Panorama has provided provided no evidence that he knew
00:22:07knew of authorised or directed the
00:22:10the falsification or backdating of of any documents. Deloitte Cyprus
00:22:14Cyprus says it's unable to comment comment because the documents are
00:22:17are more than 20 years old and no
00:22:20no longer accessible. Richard Bilton, Bilton, BBC News. And if you're here
00:22:23here in the UK, you can watch Panorama, Panorama, Roman Abramovich how he

00:22:34pm. The actor Robert Pattinson was was in London last night at the premiere
00:22:38premiere of his new film Primetime. Primetime. The movie dramatises the
00:22:42the production of the American reality reality television series To Catch
00:22:44Catch a Predator, which aired between
00:22:48between 2004 and 2007. Pattinson
00:22:49Pattinson stars as its host Chris
00:22:52Chris Hanson, an NBC journalist who who worked with a vigilante group
00:22:55group to expose child predators in
00:22:57in sting operations. The movie is is getting rave reviews, with many
00:23:00many critics saying he's going to to get an Oscar nomination. Let's
00:23:03Let's take a look. Are you sure your
00:23:10your parents aren't home? I'm sure.
00:23:14sure. Big night planned. Who are
00:23:17are you? Why don't you have a seat
00:23:20seat right there? I'm Chris Hansen
00:23:23Hansen with Dateline NBC, and we're we're doing a story on adults who
00:23:26who try to meet teens online. You
00:23:30You see how this looks right? And And our culture correspondent Noor
00:23:34Noor Nanji caught up with Robert Robert Pattinson on the red carpet
00:23:37carpet and asked him why he took took on the role of Chris Hansen.
00:23:41Hansen. I mean, it's both the most
00:23:44most terrifying thing that can happen happen to you, whether you're if if you're a parent or even if you're
00:23:47you're not. It's like the it's like
00:23:51like the most unimaginable sin possible.
00:23:54possible. And it's a kind of a it's
00:23:56it's like an unknown entity, which which is kind of it's been going
00:24:00going on since mediaeval times thinking
00:24:01thinking that there's a kind of almost
00:24:04almost it can come in this case through through the internet and attack vulnerable
00:24:08vulnerable children. And the show
00:24:11show was the kind of a microcosm microcosm of saying like, oh, we
00:24:14we can do something about it and and we can do something about it it really, really, really quickly.
00:24:18quickly. And in some ways that's
00:24:20that's correct. But it also makes makes for incredibly powerful TV.
00:24:24TV. And that's when it kind of gets gets a slightly dicey territory. territory. Do you think attitudes
00:24:28attitudes towards entertainment have
00:24:30have changed now? I think on mainstream
00:24:34mainstream TV, but then it's just just been replaced. I mean, that's that's kind of why I was interested
00:24:38interested in this show because I I could see the beginning of a new new wave of predator catching in
00:24:42in pretty much the same format that that it was in the early 2000, and
00:24:45and it was really taking off on TikTok. TikTok. And I was just interested
00:24:48interested as to why that was happening
00:24:52happening and whether it was a algorithmically
00:24:55algorithmically based interest or or what. I mean, what was causing
00:24:58causing it? And it got bigger and and bigger and bigger. And now it's
00:25:02it's one of the most. It's a massive massive thing on social media. So So it's just very interesting to
00:25:05to me. Noor Nanji and Robert Pattinson
00:25:09Pattinson and Sally Bundock is here here and almost rivalling Robert
00:25:13Robert Pattinson in also an Oscar Oscar star future Oscar star. Sally,
00:25:17Sally, what's on your agenda for for today? Well, it's a new business
00:25:20business week. Markets are open again
00:25:22again in Asia and there is just so so much for market watchers to try
00:25:25try and get their heads around the
00:25:29the intensity of the attacks in Saudi
00:25:31Saudi Arabia. Fatal attacks at the
00:25:34the airport, which has impacted the the World Petroleum Congress, which
00:25:38which was starting their gathering gathering on Sunday. So we'll be be talking about that. What's going
00:25:42going on, what it means for Saudi Saudi Arabia also as well. Of course,
00:25:45course, that deal struck between
00:25:47between President Putin and President President Trump with regards to diesel.
00:25:50diesel. So there is a lot happening happening with energy. Oil prices prices are creeping up today and
00:25:54and we've got the IMF World Bank Bank meeting going on in Bangkok,
00:25:57Bangkok, and we've got lots of earnings earnings news as well. So it's really, really, really busy Mark. So we're
