Commuters at Paddington station faced disruption owing to the London tube strike even though the Elizabeth line was still running. Photograph: Lee Thomas View image in fullscreen Commuters at Paddington station faced disruption owing to the London tube strike even though the Elizabeth line was still running. Photograph: Lee Thomas London tube strike causes huge disruption, with many services hit About half of London Underground drivers take action on Tuesday, with second strike scheduled for Thursday A 24-hour strike by London Underground drivers has begun, causing huge disruption to Tube services and roads. About half of London’s tube drivers have taken action, bringing widespread transport disruption to the capital. A second strike is planned for Thursday. Hopes of a resolution were high after previous threatened action was suspended in May . However, despite 11th-hour negotiations at Acas between RMT union representatives and Transport for London (TfL), RMT drivers planned industrial action on Tuesday and Thursday in a dispute over the introduction of a four-day working week. TfL urged customers to check before travel, with about half of all Tube services expected to run. On Tuesday morning, TfL reported severe delays on the Bakerloo, District, Hammersmith and City, Victoria, Piccadilly and Northern lines. No service was expected on the Circle line, the Waterloo and City line, the Metropolitan line between Baker Street and Aldgate, and the Central line between White City and Liverpool Street. Drivers in the Aslef union, a slight majority of those working on the tube, have welcomed the four-day week proposals and will not be on strike, limiting the impact of the RMT’s action. Other rail services, including the Elizabeth line, the London Overground and the Docklands Light Railway, were running as normal. Buses were operating as usual but were very busy and slowed by additional traffic on the roads. The RMT blamed TfL’s “refusal to engage meaningfully” with concerns over the proposed working patterns. A spokesperson said: “Despite our best efforts in Acas talks, TfL have failed to provide assurances on our members’ deeply held concerns around fatigue, reduced flexibility, shift lengths and the impact these proposals could have in a safety-critical role like tube driving. “We remain available for meaningful talks, but strike action tomorrow will now go ahead.” A TfL spokesperson said: “It is bitterly disappointing that despite five hours of meetings with the RMT at Acas and repeated assurances that the four-day working week proposals will remain voluntary, RMT has chosen to continue with its disruptive strike action. We will do all we can to provide as much service as possible during this action.” TfL’s chief operating officer, Claire Mann, said: “Our proposals are, and have always been, clear. The completely voluntary four-day week has been designed to improve work-life balance and any of our tube drivers who do not wish to take up the new propos

In Kyiv, at least four people killed and 29 others were injured across the capital, said Tymur Tkachenko, head of the capital’s military administration. Five people were killed and 16 injured in a Russian attack on Dnipro, in Ukraine’s east, said the regional governor, Oleksandr Hanzha. All those injured were taken to hospital, he said, posting pictures of heavily damaged residential buildings, burnt-out vehicles and a destroyed children’s playground. Ukraine war briefing: Ending war before winter ‘correct and realistic’, says senior Kyiv aide Read more In Kyiv, a suspected missile strike on a 24-storey apartment building triggered a collapse, with people likely trapped under the rubble, said Vitali Klitschko, the mayor. Other buildings including a nine-storey apartment block caught fire, he said. “In the Obolon district, cars are burning after being struck by falling missile debris. There are also fires at two locations in open areas, including one near a kindergarten,” Klitschko said. Thousands of residents of Kyiv were taking refuge underground in metro stations and other shelters, witnesses said, after air raid warnings that covered much of the country early on Tuesday. View image in fullscreen A woman carries a toddler as smoke rises above a Kyiv multi-storey building after Russia attacked, hitting apartment buildings. Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Monday had reiterated warnings of a potentially major assault and urged residents to pay special attention to air raid alerts. “Intelligence warnings regarding Russian strikes remain in effect. A massive strike is possible, they have prepared one,” said Ukraine’s president in his nightly video address. “Our defenders are ready 24/7 to the fullest extent possible with the supplies currently available.” In Ukraine’s north-eastern Kharkiv region, 10 people, including a child, were injured in drone and missile attacks, said the mayor, Ihor Terekhov. Russia last week warned that it intended to launch “systematic strikes” on targets in Kyiv linked to the Ukrainian military as well as decision-making centres, and urged foreigners to leave. It came after a drone strike on a dormitory in Ukraine’s Russian-held Luhansk region, which killed 21 people. Ukraine denied carrying out the attack.
