as russian tanks rolled into ukraine, president zelensky vowed to stay and fight. for that, ukraine needed resources, and so his government put out a plea for donations. with the war affecting national infrastructure, zelensky signed a law to make cryptocurrencies legal in ukraine. it's one of the few countries to do so. so far, uk says it's raised more than $70 million for the war effort in cryptocurrency alone. but shortly after, cybersecurity firms noticed a flurry of fraudulent e—mails cashing in on ukraine's conflict. the most recent numbers i've had

in the past five days were at about 2.8 million of these, specifically soliciting donations with fraudulent cryptocurrency and addresses, which is something we haven't seen before. i decided to take a closer look at some of the tactics used bike criminals to exploiter social constants. criminals to exploiter social constants-_ criminals to exploiter social constants. ., ., , constants. someone is capitalising on this. people _ constants. someone is capitalising on this. people are _ constants. someone is capitalising on this. people are following - constants. someone is capitalising on this. people are following for l on this. people are following for this _ on this. people are following for this. , . , on this. people are following for this. , ., , ., on this. people are following for this. ,. ,. , this. this man is a cybersecurity research researchers _ this. this man is a cybersecurity research researchers based - this. this man is a cybersecurity research researchers based in l research researchers based in london, and he's been receiving donation e—mails on a daily basis. they try to use your emotions. that's— they try to use your emotions. that's one _ they try to use your emotions. that's one of the... including photos— that's one of the... including photos of— that's one of the... including photos of women and children. he

hello. the uk may have recorded its highest temperature of the year so far on good friday, in the sunshine in london. but actually, across much of the north and west of the uk, it was quite a cloudy start to the long holiday weekend. it was eastern and southeast england that saw most of the sunshine — and for the record, 23.4 celsius was that temperature in central london. to prove the point, the satellite picture showing all the cloud on good friday in the north and west — now the rule of thumb for saturday's weather is where you're so cloudy, it'll be brighter and warmer, and where you saw the sunshine on good friday, saturday will be just as sunny — and where you get the sunshine, it will feel warmer. temperatures to start the day, no frost, nor will there be for the rest of the weekend. there will early on be quite a bit of cloud towards the north and west, and through much of wales and southwest england — it's misty, low cloud, but on through the day, notice how a lot of this disappears,

it breaks up, we see the sunshine coming through. could stay rather cloudy in the northern isles, especially shetland, towards the coast of aberdeenshire, misty in places and some of the coasts around cornwall as well. it's a warmer—feeling today more widely across the uk with that sunshine. it's a sunnier day in northern ireland, too — though cloud increasing will start to bring some outbreaks of rain very slowly in from the west, as we go on through the night into easter sunday morning, also pushing into parts of western scotland, especially the western isles. elsewhere, 1—2 mist and fog patches, but a recently mild start to easter sunday. and there's a weather front trying to come in on sunday still to some degree being held at bay by this area of high pressure. so, whilst much of the uk will stay dry, we will see some outbreaks of rain covering more of northern ireland very slowly on through the day, and parts of western scotland, especially into the west isles — and then later on, some of this rain would just feed in towards western counties of wales and the far southwest of england. whereas elsewhere, you continue with another day of warm, sunny spells. it will feel cooler, where you have the rain, it'll be windier, too,

and the weather fronts with, well, weakening rain will move through as we go on into easter monday. behind that, you get some sunny spells. it'll feel cooler, and then, another spell of rain looks to be heading into northern ireland and into western, especially northwest scotland, during monday. and with that, there'll be a strengthening wind. the west nile could well see some gales gusts 50 mph or more on easter monday. sunny spells — yes, dry for many, but it will feel cooler by then.
