00:00:13News. President Zelensky says Washington
00:00:16Washington has to make Russia respect. respect. An energy ceasefire announced
00:00:19announced by Donald Trump after Russian
00:00:22Russian strikes hit Ukrainian infrastructure
00:00:23infrastructure overnight. It was
00:00:26was clear that Putin does not read
00:00:31read through social. And his cheeky
00:00:33cheeky drones follow a different
00:00:36different set of instructions. Saudi Saudi officials say one person has
00:00:39has been killed and nearly a dozen dozen others injured in the latest
00:00:43latest attack on Riyadh's international international airport by the Iran-backed
00:00:45Iran-backed Houthi group in Yemen.
00:00:48Yemen. As America's mid-term elections elections loom, a special report
00:00:51report into why data centres powering powering the AI boom are becoming
00:00:54becoming a political flashpoint.
00:00:58flashpoint. Big night planned. And And Robert Pattinson tells the BBC

00:01:20with us. Ukraine says Russia has
00:01:22has continued carrying out deadly deadly attacks despite a so-called
00:01:26so-called energy ceasefire proposed proposed by President Trump. President
00:01:30President Zelensky said Russia hit hit power plants and civilian areas
00:01:33areas following the announcement. announcement. Well, this footage footage shows damage from an industrial
00:01:37industrial site near Kyiv. Yesterday, Yesterday, President Trump posted
00:01:40posted this, claiming the two sides sides had agreed to stop attacks
00:01:43attacks on energy facilities effective effective immediately. But the Kremlin
00:01:46Kremlin has yet to comment. Mr Zelensky
00:01:49Zelensky said the announcement was was news to him, but that Ukraine
00:01:52Ukraine would support a ceasefire ceasefire if Russia sticks to the
00:01:55the terms. Relations between Mr Zelensky Zelensky and Mr Trump have deteriorated
00:01:59deteriorated as the US President President tries to get the cost of
00:02:01of oil and diesel down before the
00:02:04the US mid-term elections. Dan Johnson
00:02:06Johnson reports from Kyiv. On the
00:02:09the edge of Kharkiv last night. A
00:02:14A reminder Russia has not stopped
00:02:18stopped attacking Ukraine. This woman
00:02:20woman was filming after the sirens
00:02:22sirens asking where would be hit.
00:02:25hit. She was lucky to survive a strike
00:02:28strike on a shop that killed three three people and injured more than
00:02:32than 20. This just hours after Donald
00:02:35Donald Trump announced his partial
00:02:38partial truce on Truth Social, he he wrote effective immediately, there
00:02:42there is an energy ceasefire in the the war between Russia and Ukraine.
00:02:46Ukraine. Both parties have agreed
00:02:48agreed do not break it. Ukraine's
00:02:53Ukraine's been targeting Russian Russian oil refineries in response
00:02:55response to attacks on its own power power grid. Ukraine said it was ready
00:02:59ready to cease if Russia did the the same. But Donald Trump's announcement
00:03:03announcement appeared to come as
00:03:04as a surprise to President Zelensky.
00:03:08Zelensky. Ukraine is ready to refrain
00:03:10refrain from striking Russia's energy energy infrastructure, and we expect
00:03:14expect Russia to show the same readiness readiness and honour the agreement
00:03:18agreement reached with the President President of the United States. He
00:03:21He better damn well stop. It was
00:03:24was a tense weekend of fractured fractured US Ukraine relations. I
00:03:28I suggest they get a new leader who
00:03:30who can make a deal. The row started
00:03:33started when Donald Trump lifted lifted export restrictions on Russian
00:03:36Russian diesel. Many believe to ease
00:03:38ease fuel prices driven up by the
00:03:41the war in Iran. In Kyiv, the streets
00:03:46streets have fallen dark and quiet
00:03:48quiet as its power network has been
00:03:50been pounded. Many people here are are without light, heat or water
00:03:54water because electricity is needed needed to pump it. Ukrainians were
00:03:57were braced for a very difficult difficult few months ahead into the
00:04:00the winter. So there's a lot riding riding on this cease fire. But even
00:04:04even if it holds, the war is not
00:04:07not over. That was hammered home
00:04:11home with more drones heading for
00:04:13for the capital. And within two hours
00:04:17hours this was Kharkiv's main power power station, leaving Ukrainians
00:04:21Ukrainians questioning what impact impact this cease fire will have.
00:04:25have. Dan Johnson, BBC News in Kyiv. Kyiv. In the last hour, President
00:04:29President Zelensky has been addressing addressing the Warsaw Security Forum.
00:04:32Forum. He says reassurances from from President Trump of an energy
00:04:35energy ceasefire have not held. Russia
00:04:40Russia launched a targeted strike
00:04:41strike on a power plant in Kharkiv
00:04:47Kharkiv causing further damage to
00:04:49to our energy system. It was clear
00:04:53clear that Putin does not read through
00:04:59through social and his cheeky drones drones follow a different set of
00:05:03of instructions. But this post is
00:05:06is actually about something that
00:05:08that affects the lives of millions
00:05:10millions of people, and that makes
00:05:13makes it very, very important. First
00:05:16First of all, in Ukraine because
00:05:18because Russia is trying to use another
00:05:21another winter, another period of
00:05:23of cold weather against our country,
00:05:25country, taking our power plants,
00:05:28plants, power grids and all parts
00:05:31parts of our energy infrastructure infrastructure every single day.
00:05:35day. Well, speaking at that same same forum in Warsaw, Poland's Prime
00:05:38Prime Minister Donald Tusk said this this latest so-called energy ceasefire
00:05:42ceasefire followed a familiar pattern.
00:05:45pattern. The response from Russia
00:05:47Russia to this good proposal was
00:05:50was an attack against energy infrastructure
00:05:53infrastructure in Kharkiv. It's every
00:05:56every time the same. If you propose
00:06:01propose Russia to cease fire to stop
00:06:03stop bombing critical infrastructure,
00:06:05infrastructure, to cease bombing
00:06:09bombing civilian facilities, which which Russia does on a regular basis,
00:06:13basis, is met with brutal and arrogant
00:06:16arrogant answer. Our Ukraine correspondent correspondent in Kyiv, Dan Johnson,
00:06:20Johnson, was watching President Zelensky's
00:06:22Zelensky's speech. Yeah. Zelensky Zelensky reiterating that Ukraine
00:06:26Ukraine will sign up to this, that that it will abide by it, but making
00:06:29making clear that Russia needs to to do the same. And he needs to see
00:06:33see that evidence from Russia. And And he laid bare the level of attacks
00:06:37attacks that had continued in the the initial hours of this cease fire,
00:06:40fire, having been announced by Donald Donald Trump. Zelensky said that
00:06:43that Putin clearly does not read
00:06:45read Truth Social and that his Shahid
00:06:47Shahid drones were following different different instructions, so there's
00:06:51there's scepticism there. There is is doubt. But there is hope that
00:06:54that this can deliver. I think Zelensky Zelensky wants to present himself
00:06:58himself as the pragmatist, the honest honest broker here. And although
00:07:01although this started with a row row about how Donald Trump was apparently
00:07:05apparently favouring the Russians Russians and Vladimir Putin and making
00:07:08making deals and moves that were
00:07:10were to Russia's benefit, Zelensky
00:07:13Zelensky sees a possible favourable favourable outcome for Ukraine in
00:07:16in this. On the first hand, getting
00:07:18getting an energy cease fire which which would protect the electricity
00:07:21electricity network of this country country and enable Ukrainians to
00:07:24to get through this winter without without the level of discomfort that
00:07:27that he laid bare. They'd suffered suffered increasingly over the last
00:07:30last few years. As this war has gone gone on, but also that if that energy
00:07:34energy cease fire can be implemented implemented and holds that some trust
00:07:37trust may be built and that there
00:07:39there may potentially be possible possible steps towards further de-escalation
00:07:43de-escalation and even ending the
00:07:45the conflict. So a lot of confusion,
00:07:48confusion, a lot still to play out. out. Still no word directly from
00:07:52from the Kremlin, but President Zelensky Zelensky making clear there that
00:07:54that he hopes this is a positive positive step. Dan Johnson there?
00:07:57there? Well, Stephen Doughty is a a Foreign Office minister in the
00:08:00the government. He cast doubt on on claims by President Trump that
00:08:04that an energy ceasefire is in place. place. We all would welcome an energy
00:08:07energy ceasefire. Indeed, President President Zelensky has been clear clear that he would welcome one.
00:08:11one. Indeed, we would all welcome welcome a wider ceasefire. But Russia
00:08:14Russia continues to attack Ukraine. Ukraine. It continues to attack civilian
00:08:18civilian infrastructure and continues continues to have a devastating toll
00:08:20toll in loss of life and indeed damage
00:08:23damage to Ukraine's energy grid, grid, which is causing blackouts
00:08:26blackouts and severe harm. And we we know the damage that did last last winter to Ukraine. So we're
00:08:30we're going to continue to stand stand resolutely with Ukraine. And And we're also going to continue
00:08:34continue to raise the economic pressure
00:08:36pressure on Russia. Well, let's speak
00:08:38speak to John Foreman, former UK UK defence attache to the Russian
00:08:42Russian Federation, between 2019 2019 and 2022. He also served as
00:08:45as Britain's defence attache in Kyiv. Kyiv. Thanks for being with us. Is
00:08:49Is there any chance of an energy energy ceasefire being agreed to
00:08:52to by Moscow? Do you think? Well
00:08:55Well good morning. No, I don't think think so because Russia has consistently
00:08:59consistently refused to agree to
00:09:01to a ceasefire because it sees attacking attacking Ukrainian energy infrastructure
00:09:04infrastructure as a way to achieve achieve victory. And I think President President Putin has been clear about
00:09:08about that. He's been signalling signalling there's been no change change of course over the last few
00:09:12few weeks. Russia's been ramping ramping up attacks against Ukrainian
00:09:15Ukrainian infrastructure, including including energy infrastructure. infrastructure. And I think he saw
00:09:18saw that as the way over the winter winter to bring the Ukraine's as
00:09:21as you see it, to heat, to heat, heat, to heal, to bend the needle
00:09:24needle and get them to give way to
00:09:26to his demands on peace. We've seen,
00:09:29seen, obviously, the statements over over the weekend from President Trump.
00:09:33Trump. He is facing political pressure
00:09:34pressure at home ahead of the mid-terms.
00:09:37mid-terms. And he's also made it it clear, you know, in terms of the
00:09:41the Ukrainian strategy that he is
00:09:42is not happy about long range attacks.
00:09:46attacks. What do you think the Ukrainians
00:09:48Ukrainians and Europe should do in
00:09:50in response? If an energy ceasefire
00:09:53ceasefire does not hold? Well, I
00:09:55I think it's very difficult because, because, you know, Trump is actually
00:09:59actually more about more about more more than just about the diesel. diesel. I think, you know, the fact
00:10:03fact that President Trump has decided decided to throw his hat in with
00:10:05with the aggressor and a bloodstained bloodstained tyrant who's been killing,
00:10:09killing, you know, hundreds of thousands thousands of Ukrainians for four
00:10:11four and a half years and also millions millions of people is a moral stain
00:10:15stain on the United States. It's It's against the interests of the
00:10:18the United States, both in Europe. Europe. And I think domestically
00:10:20domestically and for the long-term. long-term. So I think it's extremely extremely difficult, as we've seen
00:10:24seen by the statements from the government, government, British government of
00:10:26of how we're going to deal with this.
00:10:28this. I think what is critical is is that Europe stays together. It
00:10:32It doesn't allow Americans to bully bully it and carries on supporting
00:10:36supporting Ukraine in its hour of of need over the winter, because because this is more. More about
00:10:39about diesel. It's a moral imperative.
00:10:42imperative. We can't allow a sovereign, sovereign, democratic country three
00:10:45three hours from London to fall.
00:10:48fall. And you know, have to sue for for peace against the aggressor.
00:10:51aggressor. I mean, you say that, that, but you will know that there
00:10:54there is, you know, a narrative in in the US that about, you know, the
00:10:57the cost to the US in wider terms
00:10:59terms of supporting this war. The
00:11:01The US do hold a key plank of intelligence
00:11:06intelligence sharing and other military military and intelligence help that
00:11:09that they give to Ukraine and the the Europeans that they could withhold
00:11:12withhold if they so choose. So the the Europeans can't afford to ignore
00:11:16ignore that. Ukraine can't afford afford to ignore that they want the
00:11:18the US and they need the US on side, side, don't they? Yeah. I mean, I
00:11:22I think in terms of cost it's been been overblown. I think America actually actually have provided, you know,
00:11:25know, in terms of the American economy
00:11:28economy and arms very little in terms terms of the size of the economy,
00:11:30economy, in size of their military. military. And a lot of it's been been done for profit. And since President
00:11:34President Trump came into office office last year, they cut off direct
00:11:37direct financial support. They cut cut off direct arm support and said
00:11:41said to Europe, you buy our weapons weapons or you give them to Ukraine.
00:11:43Ukraine. So I think, as you said,
00:11:45said, Russia, America has leverage leverage in terms of Intel in terms
00:11:48terms of arms. But I think over the the last 18 months, people have woken
00:11:51woken up to the fact that how Trump Trump is his capricious nature, shouting
00:11:55shouting at President Zelensky in in the Oval Office one minute and and then putting in sanctions against
00:11:58against Russia on the other, but but not really determining a clear
00:12:01clear course. So I think Europe,
00:12:04Europe, both in terms of Nato, both both in terms of security, both in in terms of Ukraine, was woken up,
00:12:08up, has to hedge against what America America is up to and actually has
00:12:11has to bite the bullet and support support Ukraine itself. OK, John
00:12:14John Foreman, we'll have to leave leave it there. Former UK defence defence attache. Thank you so much
00:12:18much for your time around the world
00:12:21world and across the UK.
00:13:23how social media has shaped the story. story. It's all on The Media Show
00:13:27Show on BBC News. Now, as America's
00:13:32America's mid-term elections approach, approach, the data centres powering
00:13:35powering the AI boom are becoming becoming a political flashpoint.
00:13:38flashpoint. A new proposal in Washington Washington would recover them to
00:13:41to would require them to cover the the additional electricity infrastructure
00:13:45infrastructure costs that they create. create. Well, President Trump champions
00:13:47champions their expansion. But Arizona's Arizona's Attorney General has called
00:13:50called for a pause on new approvals. approvals. Our North America correspondent
00:13:54correspondent Shaimaa Khalil has has been hearing what it means to
00:13:57to live alongside these giant facilities.
00:13:59facilities. Get off it. Put people people over profit. A backlash to
00:14:03to the data centre boom is happening
00:14:06happening across America. Here in
00:14:10in Arizona, protesters are fighting fighting against upcoming expansions.
00:14:13expansions. The point of technology technology is to make things more
00:14:16more efficient, not to coat the earth
00:14:19earth in rapidly depreciating chips chips that heat, you know, neighbourhoods.
00:14:22neighbourhoods. We can't have another another data centre. We don't have
00:14:25have enough water as it is. This
00:14:27This is what America's AI ambitions
00:14:29ambitions look like. President Trump Trump says any slowdown means losing
00:14:33losing to China. At first glance, glance, this looks like an ordinary
00:14:37ordinary suburban neighbourhood. neighbourhood. That is, until huge
00:14:40huge data centres started sprawling sprawling around. And in a place
00:14:43place like Arizona, already struggling struggling with soaring temperatures
00:14:47temperatures and drought, people people here worry about what that
00:14:49that will mean more pressure on the the power grid, potentially higher
00:14:53higher bills, more demand on scarce
00:14:54scarce water. We love our house,
00:14:59house, but if we had known that was was going in, we never would have
00:15:03have bought here. It's enough to
00:15:05to make the difference between a
00:15:08a pleasant lifestyle and wondering
00:15:11wondering how much noise is going
00:15:13going to be coming up and what's
00:15:15what's next. This is essentially
00:15:18essentially a data logger. A noise
00:15:21noise isn't the only concern. Scientists Scientists say the data centres are
00:15:24are making scorching Arizona even
00:15:26even hotter. Driving around this
00:15:29this neighbourhood, what worries worries you about its proximity to
00:15:32to that data centre? The residents
00:15:34residents here are all going to feel
00:15:38feel a couple of degree Fahrenheit Fahrenheit warming on a typical day,
00:15:41day, and that will translate to higher higher energy costs for them running
00:15:45running air conditioners probably
00:15:47probably higher landscape water use use costs. Reporter but some residents
00:15:51residents see these facilities as as part of the technology they already already rely on. I don't think it's
00:15:55it's a problem and I'm kind of excited. excited. I just recently bought a
00:15:59a Tesla with full Self-Driving, and and I know that uses a lot of data
00:16:03data and it's awesome. So I don't don't have a problem with it. We
00:16:06We need that water. And if it's not not there, how do we farm? But Nancy
00:16:10Nancy Caywood worries about what what gets left behind. Her family
00:16:13family has farmed this land since
00:16:15since 1930. Drought is making that that harder now, but she says she's
00:16:19she's refused offers to sell to data data centre developers. Knowing my
00:16:22my granddad worked so hard to for
00:16:25for this farm, just not having it it here would just be. It would be
00:16:29be hard. What do you say to President
00:16:31President Trump? Because he's a big
00:16:34big advocate of data centres. He He can't eat data centres, can't
00:16:37can't eat them. They're not going going to provide food for you. As
00:16:40As voters head to the polls in November, November, many issues will weigh
00:16:44weigh heavily on their minds. Among Among them, the expansion of AI,
00:16:48AI, changing their lives and the

00:16:55Arizona. Now. Yemen's Houthi rebels rebels have renewed their warnings
00:16:58warnings against using airports in in Saudi Arabia. It comes after two
00:17:02two deadly strikes on Riyadh's main main international airport in as
00:17:04as many days. Saudi officials say say one person was killed and 11
00:17:0811 wounded in an attack on the King King Khalid International Airport
00:17:11Airport on Sunday, the day before, before, 13 people were killed and
00:17:14and more than 300 injured in a missile missile strike. That's the deadliest
00:17:17deadliest attack on Saudi soil in in more than a decade. The Houthis,
00:17:20Houthis, who are backed by Iran, Iran, say they're targeting Saudi Saudi Arabia over its support for
00:17:24for government forces in Yemen's
00:17:25Yemen's civil war. Here's our correspondent
00:17:28correspondent Joe Inwood. Saturday
00:17:31Saturday morning, one of Saudi Arabia's Arabia's busiest airports. Hundreds
00:17:34Hundreds of people from all over over the world waiting for their
00:17:38their flight. Then this a missile
00:17:41missile hitting a crowded terminal, terminal, killing more than a dozen
00:17:44dozen people, wounding over 300.
00:17:47300. Emergency services were said said to be overwhelmed late last
00:17:51last night. A group called the Houthis Houthis claim responsibility not
00:17:54not just for Saturday's attack but but for this one. Last Thursday at
00:17:58at the same airport, another one one yesterday, as well as one at
00:18:02at a state run gas plant with the the help of Almighty God, the armed
00:18:06armed forces carried out for qualitative
00:18:09qualitative operations over the past past 24 hours using a number of ballistic
00:18:13ballistic and winged missiles as as well as drones. The first operation
00:18:16operation targeted King Khalid Airport Airport in Riyadh. The second operation
00:18:20operation targeted an Aramco gas
00:18:22gas plant. The Houthis are a group group that control large parts of
00:18:26of Yemen just to the south of Saudi
00:18:28Saudi Arabia. For more than a decade, decade, there's been a brutal civil
00:18:31civil war there. The Houthis on one
00:18:34one side, the internationally recognised recognised government, which is backed
00:18:37backed by Saudi Arabia, on the other. other. For the last couple of years
00:18:41years there's been an uneasy truce. truce. But that's been shattered.
00:18:44shattered. The Houthis made lightning lightning advances down the coast
00:18:48coast last month, allowing them to to threaten Saudi shipping in the
00:18:51the Red Sea. Saudi Arabia responded
00:18:54responded with air strikes. The Houthis Houthis have been firing back. As
00:18:57As we've seen this weekend, President
00:18:59President Trump is an ally of the the Saudis. He condemned the attack
00:19:03attack on Riyadh airport but did did not say he would get involved.
00:19:07involved. I think it's terrible, terrible, terrible. For the Saudis
00:19:10Saudis able to defend themselves. themselves. While they're able to
00:19:13to defend. The Saudis are good fighters.
00:19:16fighters. But I think the attack attack was a terrible thing. This
00:19:19This attack was the most severe on on Saudi soil in over a decade. Some
00:19:23Some of those killed are now being
00:19:25being identified. One of them, Buthaina
00:19:27Buthaina Awada, was a mother of four four from Syria. She was a victim
00:19:31victim of a conflict that she had
00:19:32had no part in. But that seems to

00:23:58The actor Robert Pattinson was in in London last night at the premiere
00:24:02premiere of his new film Primetime. Primetime. The movie dramatises the
00:24:05the production of the American reality reality TV series To Catch a Predator,
00:24:09Predator, which aired between 2004
00:24:112004 and 2007. Pattinson stars as as its host Chris Hansen, an NBC
00:24:15NBC journalist who worked with a a vigilante group to expose child
00:24:19child predators in sting operations. operations. The movie's getting rave
00:24:22rave reviews, with many critics saying saying he's going to get an Oscar
00:24:24Oscar nomination. Let's have a look.
00:24:30look. Are you sure your parents aren't
00:24:32aren't home? I'm sure. Big night
00:24:36night planned. Well, who are you?
00:24:39you? Why don't you have a seat right
00:24:42right there? I'm Chris Hansen with
00:24:45with Dateline NBC, and we're doing doing a story on adults who try to
00:24:49to meet teens online. You see how
00:24:52how this looks right? Well, our culture culture correspondent Noor Nanji
00:24:56Nanji caught up with Robert Pattinson Pattinson on the red carpet and asked asked him why he took on the role
00:25:00role of Chris. I mean, it's both
00:25:03both the most terrifying thing that that can happen to you, whether you're you're if you're a parent or even
00:25:07even if you're not. It's like the
00:25:09the it's like the most unimaginable
00:25:12unimaginable sin possible. And it's
00:25:14it's a kind of a it's like an unknown
00:25:17unknown entity, which is kind of of it's been going on since mediaeval
00:25:21mediaeval times thinking that there's there's a kind of spirit almost that
00:25:25that can come in this case through through the internet and attack vulnerable
00:25:28vulnerable children. And the show
00:25:31show was the kind of a microcosm microcosm of saying like, oh, we
00:25:34we can do something about it and and we can do something about it it really, really, really quickly.
00:25:38quickly. And in some ways that's
00:25:40that's correct. But it also makes makes for incredibly powerful TV.
00:25:44TV. And that's when it kind of gets gets a slightly dicey territory. territory. Do you think attitudes
00:25:48attitudes towards entertainment have
00:25:50have changed now? I think on mainstream
00:25:54mainstream TV, but then it's just just been replaced. I mean, that's that's kind of why I was interested
00:25:58interested in this show because I I could see the beginning of a new new wave of predator catching in
00:26:02in pretty much the same format that that it was in the early 2000, and
00:26:05and it was really taking off on TikTok. TikTok. And I was just interested
00:26:08interested as to why that was happening
00:26:12happening and whether it was a algorithmically
00:26:15algorithmically based interest or or what. I mean, what was causing
00:26:18causing it? And it got bigger and and bigger and bigger. And now it's
00:26:22it's one of the most it's a massive massive thing on social media. So So it's just very interesting to
