Summary

In Ukraine a Russian airstrike detonated munitions in a warehouse in a residential area outside Ukraine's capital, Kyiv, killing 37 people. We hear from a BBC correspondent who has been behind the security perimeter. Also on the programme: Nepal has called for a "global effort" to address climate change after devastating floods; and we ask what next for cycling great Tadej Pogacar after crashing out of the Vuelta a España.
