Important meetings have been taking place behind closed doors at the Nato summit in Lithuania today, lots of handshakes, smiles and hugs in a space when diplomacy is everything. We hear from all the big names - including US President Biden and Ukraine President Zelensky. Plus we get analysis from our BBC correspondent James Landale.

Kenya's opposition leader Raila Odinga has called off a rally that had been planned in the country's capital Nairobi, saying he wanted to avert further violence. At least one person has been killed during a day of protests across the country. The BBC's Beverly Ochieng is following the story for us in Nairobi.

And we discuss "Barbenheimer" - a double bill of films released on the same day. One of the films - a serious biopic about the nuclear physicist who invented the atomic bomb, J Robert Oppenheimer, and the other is a tongue in cheek look at the popular children's toy franchise Barbie. The shared release date has lead many to discuss watching both films as part of an unofficial double bill. Our very own OS producer Laura Cress tells us why she'll be booking tickets to Barbenheimer.
