Good morning, Jenny here with your Monday Newsround.

0:00:190:00:21

First, there's been a serious incident in London overnight.

0:00:210:00:23

Shortly after midnight, a van drove into a crowd

0:00:230:00:25

of worshippers coming out of a mosque in Finsbury Park,

0:00:250:00:27

in north-east London.

0:00:270:00:28

Police are making the area safe, and have closed roads.

0:00:280:00:31

Several people have been taken to hospital, and one

0:00:310:00:33

person has sadly died.

0:00:330:00:34

One man has been arrested by police.

0:00:340:00:36

As we find out more about what happened,

0:00:360:00:38

you'll be able to get updates at Newsround online,

0:00:380:00:41

and don't forget if you're upset by this story,

0:00:410:00:43

or by anything in the news, there's loads of help

0:00:430:00:45

and advice there too.

0:00:450:00:49

Now, the Tour de France starts in just under two weeks.

0:00:490:00:53

It's one of the toughest bike races in the world,

0:00:530:00:56

and includes cycling up some of the biggest mountains in France.

0:00:560:00:58

But how do you go from riding your bike in the park, to taking on some

0:00:580:01:02

of cycling's biggest challenges?

0:01:020:01:03

Whitney went to meet a brother and sister who've done just that.

0:01:030:01:07

Alfie and Saskia have cycled 300 miles from London to Paris.

0:01:070:01:13

Alfie's climbed Mont Ventoux, the hardest mountain

0:01:130:01:16

of the Tour de France.

0:01:160:01:20

And he's also got to the top of Col du Tourmalet -

0:01:200:01:23

that's more than 2115 metres high.

0:01:230:01:29

How did you get into cycling and become so good that it?

0:01:350:01:40

My dad did London to Paris in a day.

0:01:400:01:44

It just made me want to do something amazing just like him.

0:01:440:01:47

I'm not actually that good, it's just I'm very determined

0:01:470:01:50

to complete what I've started.

0:01:500:01:53

You can see I'm not the best at this.

0:01:530:01:58

What advice would you give to people who want to be as great as you?

0:01:580:02:02

Try every type of cycling and if you don't like one type,

0:02:020:02:05

try the other until you can find what you like doing.

0:02:050:02:07

It's just good to keep trying.

0:02:070:02:09

Even if you fall over a few times, well, cycling's difficult and you'll

0:02:090:02:12

get used to it eventually.

0:02:120:02:13

Tour de France is coming up.

0:02:130:02:15

Alfie, you've gone up some of the toughest mountains

0:02:150:02:17

that are in the race.

0:02:170:02:19

How did you get good enough to do that?

0:02:190:02:21

It was really, really hard.

0:02:210:02:22

I thought about giving up at parts of it but when I was at the top

0:02:220:02:26

I just knew that it was there and I had to keep on going

0:02:260:02:29

because I was going to do it.

0:02:290:02:33

And you both looking forward to Tour de France?

0:02:330:02:36

With Alfie having gone up the mountains, it's kind of exciting

0:02:360:02:38

watching the ones he's gone up, like, "My brother's

0:02:380:02:41

done that already!"

0:02:410:02:42

I have to say, you guys have given me top tips,

0:02:420:02:44

you're making me feel more confident and motivated.

0:02:440:02:47

Shall we go for a ride?

0:02:470:02:49

Yeah, of course.

0:02:490:02:49

I hope that I don't fall.

0:02:490:02:58

A bit more sport, and British tennis number one Jo Konta lost her first

0:02:580:03:01

grass court final on home soil, as she was beaten at

0:03:010:03:04

the Nottingham Open by Donna Vekic.

0:03:040:03:12

The competition was one of Jo Konta's warm-ups before

0:03:120:03:14

Wimbledon, which starts in July.

0:03:140:03:15

Take a look at these old bangers.

0:03:150:03:17

Tractor fanatics from around the world,

0:03:170:03:21

have travelled to Poland to show off their pride

0:03:210:03:24

and joy at this rally.

0:03:240:03:25

And they even got to take some of the tractors

0:03:250:03:27

for a bit of a test drive.

0:03:270:03:34

Fetch, sit and roll over - they're all things that

0:03:340:03:36

you would teach a dog to do.

0:03:360:03:38

But what if your pooch doesn't understand what you're saying?

0:03:380:03:41

Here's Ricky.

0:03:410:03:42

Stay.

0:03:420:03:44

Meet Caleb, a four-year-old rescue dog like any other,

0:03:440:03:46

apart from one thing - he doesn't understand English.

0:03:460:03:48

Drop it.

0:03:480:03:50

And although he's a German shepherd, German isn't the language

0:03:500:03:52

he understands, it's Polish.

0:03:520:03:53

Staff here only figured out what the answer was when a man

0:03:530:03:56

who spoke Polish came to take one of the other dogs home.

0:03:560:04:00

As soon as he heard the language, Caleb's ears pricked

0:04:000:04:02

up, and they realised he understood every command.

0:04:020:04:05

He was sitting down, he was lying down, he was giving them a paw,

0:04:050:04:09

giving the ball back to us, doing all sorts, and whenever

0:04:090:04:12

we tried we just got absolutely nothing, he was all over the place.

0:04:120:04:17

So now they've started learning Polish.

0:04:170:04:19

"Paw" is "lapa".

0:04:190:04:22

And Caleb has started to understand English,

0:04:220:04:26

which will make finding him a new home easier in the future.

0:04:260:04:29

Maybe even with a family that speaks both languages.

0:04:290:04:38

Thanks, Ricky.

0:04:380:04:39

Meet the latest additions to this Siberian tiger family.

0:04:390:04:41

These four cubs are just a month old and were born

0:04:410:04:44

in a wildlife sanctuary in southwest China.

0:04:440:04:45

At the moment, the four cubs haven't been given names,

0:04:450:04:49

so staff can only tell them apart by the different

0:04:490:04:51

stripes on their tails.

0:04:510:04:52

That's all from the team, for now.

0:04:520:04:54

Newsround's back right here at 8.15am.
