I think the logic here is "he is the 10 presenter and opts to do a 10 on Sunday, thus he also does Sunday teatime".
Given the gravity of today's events, the evening national bulletin is also simulcasted in NC... In case you're wondering, WN is in their own recorded hour~
The simulcast, on the other hand, can be indeed attributed to the breaking news (although just several months ago it was the way things worked on weekends).
UPD. Just looked up on this very thread, Huw did a Sunday evening, including teatime bulletin from E, on 15th January, 5 weeks ago:

UPD2. It appears that the 5pm hour had an opt-out for World slighly later than usual, at :27+, or at least Lukwesa behaved so.
UPD3. At 6pm, as Samantha Simmonds took over, Nicola Bulley development is no longer the top story on the BBC (World) News, giving way to Turkey-Siria earthquake.
