Pakistan is facing "a monsoon on steroids", the UN's secretary general has warned, after floods submerged a third of the country. Antonio Guterres urged the world to come to Pakistan's aid as he launched a $160m appeal to help the tens of millions affected in the disaster. We'll bring you the latest on the floods from our correspondents on the ground, and speak to people who have been affected.

Also, Ukraine's military says it has broken through Russia's first line of defence in the occupied Kherson region. The reported push appears to form part of a long-awaited counter-offensive being launched by Kyiv in an attempt to retake the country's south. We'll speak to our correspondent in Ukraine to find out more.

And, the first shipment of grain from Ukraine to Africa since the war began has docked in Djibouti. The MV Brave Commander is carrying 23,000 tonnes of Ukrainian wheat that is bound for neighbouring Ethiopia, which is in desperate need of food aid. Our correspondent is there.
