There's uncertainty over whether a ceasefire between government | :00:18. | :00:22. | |
forces and pro-Russian rebels in eastern Ukraine is holding. | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
Both sides have made unconfirmed claims that the deal - | :00:27. | :00:28. | |
agreed yesterday to halt five months of fighting - has been breached | :00:29. | :00:47. | |
The EU has agreed further sanctions against Russia, but said they could | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
be avoided if the ceasefire is observed and Russia withdraws any | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
From Donetsk, Richard Galpin reports. | :00:53. | :00:54. | |
Donetsk is a much calmer city than 24-hour 's ago, the heavily | :00:55. | :01:02. | |
artillery fire no longer echoing through the streets, this is what it | :01:03. | :01:06. | |
had been like when just two days ago we witnessed the aftermath of heavy | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
shelling on a residential area of the city. Five people reportedly | :01:12. | :01:16. | |
killed. Today we drove out to the western side of the city. Here, much | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
evidence of the battles of recent weeks. Just a few hundred meters | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
down the road, Donetsk airport, this has been the scene of the most | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
fierce fighting between Ukrainian troops and rebels in the city. Since | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
we have been here, we have heard a couple of explosions and some | :01:37. | :01:41. | |
gunshots. But it seems overall the cease-fire is holding here. | :01:42. | :01:47. | |
TRANSLATION I have not heard anything, people in | :01:48. | :01:51. | |
the bus I took today also said they did not hear anything, they stopped | :01:52. | :01:57. | |
firing here around 5pm yesterday. Both sides already accuse each other | :01:58. | :02:01. | |
of violating the cease-fire. Today a spokesman 's for the Ukrainian | :02:02. | :02:09. | |
military said troops came under fire 28 times since yesterday evening. | :02:10. | :02:14. | |
The rebel leaders believe they are the ones under attack, but they | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
openly said their goal remains the creation of an independent state | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
here. TRANSLATION Of course I will be glad if missile | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
stopped exploding here but I will be more satisfied when the rebel army | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
reaches the board of Romania. Then there will be an independent state | :02:34. | :02:39. | |
called the new Russia. Ash macro the board of mania. | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
Across the region it seems the cease-fire is holding the now | :02:46. | :02:49. | |
although it is still a very fragile peace. | :02:50. | :02:53. | |
The clinic in the Czech Republic which is prepared to treat | :02:54. | :02:55. | |
a five year old boy with brain cancer says doctors will decide | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
on Monday whether he's well enough to travel to Prague for treatment. | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
Last night, a High Court judge ruled that Ashya King's family could take | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
him to a clinic in Prague to receive proton beam therapy. | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
Nick Beake is in Malaga, where Ashya and his family are. | :03:11. | :03:15. | |
What is the latest? Well, this morning Ashya's family have been | :03:16. | :03:24. | |
meeting with doctors and health officials, trying to finalise a plan | :03:25. | :03:28. | |
which would see him discharged from hospital. A place where he's been | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
treated this week. In the last ten minutes or so the lawyer for the | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
family has arrived and he's been bringing is up-to-date with how the | :03:37. | :03:43. | |
family are faring and how is doing. He is in perfect conditions to | :03:44. | :03:46. | |
travel at the moment, he's playing with toys, with his parents. With | :03:47. | :03:54. | |
his brother. And we are preparing the last documentation to travel. | :03:55. | :04:00. | |
Well, the lawyer said Ashya's parents for their part, they were | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
extremely grateful to the High Court judge in London, who said yes, now | :04:05. | :04:09. | |
the family control to Prague for the proton beam treatment that they | :04:10. | :04:13. | |
wanted. Remember it was nine days ago they decided to take him away | :04:14. | :04:17. | |
without the consent of the doctors in Southampton, where he was | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
treated. It's set in chain a series of events nobody could have | :04:23. | :04:25. | |
predicted. It led to them being arrested here in Spain, detained for | :04:26. | :04:30. | |
some time in a Spanish jail and separated for some time from their | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
son. The latest though, is that Ashya is welcome in terms of when he | :04:35. | :04:38. | |
could travel to the Czech Republic, the lawyer says this will happen | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
either tomorrow or Monday -- that he is well. | :04:44. | :04:46. | |
A man's appeared in court accused of murdering an elderly widow | :04:47. | :04:48. | |
82 year old Palmira Silva was attacked in her garden on Thursday | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
Nicholas Salvador, who's also been charged with | :04:53. | :04:54. | |
attacking a police officer, has been remanded in custody. | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
The government in Sierra Leone is preparing to impose | :05:00. | :05:01. | |
a three day nationwide 'lockdown' - later this month - to try to halt | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
The West African nation is one of the countries worst hit | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
by the deadly disease which has claimed more than 2,000 lives. | :05:12. | :05:13. | |
The fight to contain the deadly Ebola virus is on the move. This | :05:14. | :05:29. | |
research team from South Africa has established a mobile laboratory in | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
Sierra Leone's capital Freetown that health experts hope will drastically | :05:35. | :05:38. | |
reduce the time taken to diagnose the disease. A matter of hours | :05:39. | :05:42. | |
instead of days. It comes as the country announces a locked down to | :05:43. | :05:45. | |
try to keep any spread to the minimum possible. Unfortunately | :05:46. | :05:53. | |
there is no evidence yet that we control the outbreak, it is becoming | :05:54. | :05:58. | |
even worse. With health workers in need of urgent supplies as they try | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
to identify and isolate new cases of the Ebola virus across West Africa, | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
the UN issued a rescue call and an appeal the $600 million. We have | :06:08. | :06:15. | |
seen courageous and sponsors of health personnel, we are determined | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
to show solidarity with them, and scalable efforts to tackle the | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
epidemic. This is a huge and serious challenge and we are organising to | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
meet it, and I am convinced we can succeed. In Sierra Leone, as in | :06:30. | :06:35. | |
neighbouring countries, contain and control is the immediate strategy. | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
Teams of volunteers will be deployed to make sure residents stay indoors | :06:40. | :06:43. | |
for three days, but the lockdown is not due for nearly two weeks. With | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
the virus spreading, it could be months before the epidemic is | :06:49. | :06:49. | |
brought under control. You can see more on all of today's | :06:50. | :06:53. | |
stories on the BBC News Channel. The next news on BBC One is | :06:54. | :06:57. | |
at 5.40 - bye for now. Quite a lot of cloud has built up | :06:58. | :07:14. | |
across the British Isles at the moment, it is not dry everywhere, | :07:15. | :07:19. | |
this weather front is bringing rain across northern England and Wales. | :07:20. | :07:21. |
