Welcome to BBC Verify Livepublished at 09:50 British Summer Time<\/p>\n

09:50 BST<\/p>\n

Good morning.<\/p>\n

We’re starting the day
\nlooking at the latest from Ukraine and Russia as we analyse and verify footage
\nbeing posted online as both sides have accused each other of aerial
\nstrikes.<\/p>\n

Our verification experts
\nare assessing footage appearing to show the aftermath of a Ukrainian attack
\nthat targeted an oil depot near the Sochi airport on Russia’s Black
\nSea coast – more on that shortly.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere in Russia’s
\nsouth, we’re looking into reports
\nthat a railway station in the Volgograd region was attacked last night as
\nwell as <\/b>overnight footage of damage from
\nUkraine’s Odesa.<\/p>\n

And we’re expecting a news conference from
\nthe Reform UK party later this morning so BBC Verify’s fact-checkers will be
\nlistening to that and will report back on any checkable claims.<\/p>\n

As well as those stories our user-generated
\ncontent team is looking to hear from you if you’ve been affected by Storm
\nFloris which is bringing unseasonable weather to the northern half of the UK – you
\ncan follow the latest on the BBC News live page<\/a>.<\/p>\n
