Germany has announced its biggest military aid package yet for Ukraine. Tanks, ammunition, and air defence systems are all part of the deal worth almost $3 billion. It comes after Berlin's initial reluctance to send arms - is it better late than never? Also in the programme: is Turkey about to take a seismic political shift in elections tomorrow? And we'll hear from Liverpool which is hosting the Eurovision song contest. (Photo shows Ukrainian soldiers standing on a Leopard 1A5 tank at a training site in Germany.
