This bird looks like a Radde's-type warbler from the overall colour, lack of wing bar, long supercilium and bill shape, but it was quite yellow underneath, particularly in sunlight, and also streaked. I did not hear any call.

Could it be a Yellow-streaked Warbler?

Thanks for these detailed replies which are very helpful.

It seems that Yellow-streaked is a particularly difficult bird to tie down unless you hear the call. This is my second attempt at the species, maybe it will be third time lucky. I will be listening carefully for the call next time.
