Almost two weeks into its attack on Russia's Kursk region, Ukraine has rendered unusable another bridge over the river Seym, further complicating logistics for Russian forces, and making it more difficult for them to bring in reinforcements. Earlier in the week, the Ukrainians destroyed another bridge. Correspondents say cutting Russian access may indicate Kyiv is planning to hold and expand the ground they've taken, to form a buffer zone to protect Ukraine's Sumy region.

Also in the programme: With 78 days to go until the US Presidential election, what are the polls saying? and gamers make it to the rich list.
