by rebel forces. Lyse Doucet, who's on Syria's | :01:58. | :02:00. | |
border with Lebanon, has heard new testimony | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
on the desperate situation in On Lebanon's border, Syria looms | :02:04. | :02:19. | |

Madhya's dark tale. Ssh woman left with her young family two years ago. | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
Her mother, nieces, nephews, are still there. She asked us to blur | :02:29. | :02:34. | |
their faces. TRANSLATION: I haven't seen my | :02:35. | :02:39. | |
mother in a year-and-a-half. Every time we talk, she breaks down in | :02:40. | :02:44. | |
tears. I'm only asking for someone to intervene and help people there | :02:45. | :02:46. | |
because what is happening is a crime. They stay in touch by text. | :02:47. | :02:53. | |
They can't get through today. Yesterday, her sister asked, when is | :02:54. | :02:58. | |
the aid coming. Monday, she texted back. Just two more days of | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
starvation, came the reply, thanks be to God. These are the images said | :03:03. | :03:09. | |
to be from inside Madhya. A child whose mother says is surviving on | :03:10. | :03:16. | |
salt and water. It's what many seem to be living on. If you can call | :03:17. | :03:23. | |
this a life. Packets of salt handed out, leaves pulled from trees. We | :03:24. | :03:29. | |
can't verify these images ourselves. Today, on the border, Syrians and | :03:30. | :03:35. | |
Lebanese raised their voices more Madiya. A rebel-held town that's | :03:36. | :03:44. | |
besieged by Syria's army and its Lebanese Hezbollah allies. Madiya is | :03:45. | :03:47. | |
in the eyes of the world. Protests like this are mostly because of the | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
distressed images are merging from inside. Madiya is just one of the | :03:53. | :03:59. | |
places around Syria. Some 400,000 people in all say the authorities | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
not getting any aid at all. This is the place that used to | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
symbolise suffering in Syria, Yarmouk. We returned to its darkest | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
corridor last month. The UN hasn't been able to enter here since June. | :04:14. | :04:21. | |
Some places have never been reached. Today, aid agencies prepare to feed | :04:22. | :04:27. | |
Madiya. Two northernvilleage besieged by opposition forces. | :04:28. | :04:31. | |
That's the deal. In Syria, food is a weapon of war. | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
A British man arrested in Ghana in connection with the killing | :04:36. | :04:44. | |
of his partner, the former Eastenders actress Sian Blake, | :04:45. | :04:46. | |
and their two sons, will appear in court in the morning. | :04:47. | :04:49. | |
Arthur Simpson Kent was detained yesterday at a beach resort. | :04:50. | :04:51. | |
British detectives have begun legal proceedings, | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
to bring him back to the UK for questioning. | :04:55. | :04:56. | |
From Ghana, Alistair Leithead reports. | :04:57. | :04:58. | |
The Ghanaian authorities were keen to show off Arthur Simpson-Kent, | :04:59. | :05:04. | |
the murder suspect in their custody just three days after being told | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
he was in Ghana, and British police wanted to find him. | :05:09. | :05:11. | |
The fugitive is in our custody, awaiting an official request | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
from the British government via the diplomatic channel | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
for his extradition to the United Kingdom. | :05:21. | :05:23. | |
He was arrested yesterday at a remote tourist spot hours | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
Locals who recognised him said it took police a long time to act | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
on tips, but British officers disagreed. | :05:32. | :05:33. | |
I'm satisfied it was done as quickly as we could to have got here. | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
There is nothing we or the Ghanaians could have done quicker to get back | :05:38. | :05:42. | |
The bodies of Sian Blake and her two children were found last week | :05:43. | :05:50. | |
in her back garden, weeks after being reported missing. | :05:51. | :05:53. | |
Their father had travelled to Ghana before Christmas. | :05:54. | :05:56. | |
This beautiful stretch of coast is where Arthur Simpson-Kent came, | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
after apparently visiting his grandmother in Cape coast | :06:00. | :06:02. | |
Little goes unnoticed in this small beach community, | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
When his photographs circulated on social media, | :06:08. | :06:14. | |
He met Mr Simpson-Kent at a cafe owned by a British lady. | :06:15. | :06:21. | |
He said he was going to relocate here. | :06:22. | :06:25. | |
It was three weeks that Arthur Simpson-Kent was here | :06:26. | :06:32. | |
in Ghana before authorities were made aware that police | :06:33. | :06:34. | |
Such is the power of social media that just a few days | :06:35. | :06:39. | |
after his photograph was circulated, the community here in this remote | :06:40. | :06:41. | |
part of coastal Ghana realised it was him. | :06:42. | :06:43. | |
They mobilised police and he was arrested. | :06:44. | :06:45. | |
The fast flow of information and coordination between British | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
The search ended here, but the process to extradite him | :06:49. | :06:53. | |
The first step will be when he appears in court tomorrow. | :06:54. | :07:11. | |
David Cameron as clear as he has been today as to when we will get | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
Does he expect a referendum in the summer? | :07:15. | :07:23. | |
He gave the strongest signal yet that the in-out vote could be as | :07:24. | :07:37. | |
early as June. Here is Ross Hawkins. In or out? The decision could be | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
just months away. My aim is clear, best of both worlds for Britain, the | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
massive prize of sorting out what frustrates us about Europe but | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
staying in a reformed Europe. The prize is closer than it was and I'll | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
work around-the-clock to get that done. He's Loachful he'll secure the | :07:54. | :07:58. | |
prize in Brussels which will mean a referendum in June. If he fails, the | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
vote may not come until next year. After tortuous negotiations in | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
Europe, was the British Government prepared for the possibility of | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
actually leaving the EU? I don't think that is the right answer for | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
the reasons I've given, but were that to be the answer, we'd have to | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
do everything necessary to make that work. We put nit the manifesto. It's | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
the public that will decide this, not the politician. He said this | :08:24. | :08:33. | |
morning there's no plans for brex it. Now, this is actually | :08:34. | :08:39. | |
disgraceful. There are no plans for brexit and that's really serious | :08:40. | :08:42. | |
because it's a complicated operation to carry out if it happens. I'm told | :08:43. | :08:48. | |
there is growing disquiet among Euro-sceptic Cabinet Ministers that | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
while pro-Europeans are encouraged to speak, they for the time being | :08:53. | :08:55. | |
are kept quiet. While David Cameron says he'll stay in his job, however | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
people vote in the referendum, some of his MPs think if Britain votes to | :09:00. | :09:04. | |
leave the EU, he will be forced from Downing Street. | :09:05. | :09:12. | |
The authorities in Mexico say they want to question the American | :09:13. | :09:14. | |
actor Sean Penn, about an interview he conducted with the drug baron | :09:15. | :09:17. | |
It took place in the Mexican jungle while Guzman was a fugitive | :09:18. | :09:22. | |
on the run, having escaped from a maximum security prison. | :09:23. | :09:24. | |
From Mexico City here's Katie Watson. | :09:25. | :09:36. | |
A hand shake that took everyone by surprise, a Hollywood star and a | :09:37. | :09:40. | |
wanted man, until he was caught on Friday after six months on the run, | :09:41. | :09:45. | |
that is. It turns out that vanity played a part in El Chapo's | :09:46. | :09:51. | |
downfall. He wanted to make a film about his life. He'd been in contact | :09:52. | :09:56. | |
with actors and producers, Sean Penn was one. After a brief meeting in a | :09:57. | :10:01. | |
hide out, he recorded an interview answering questions provided by | :10:02. | :10:06. | |
Penn. In it, he blamed his rise to become the violent and feared | :10:07. | :10:08. | |
criminal on his poor background. The man said to be responsible for | :10:09. | :10:24. | |
tens of thousands of deaths through his drug trafficking activities | :10:25. | :10:25. | |
denies he is a man of violence. There is talk in Mexico that contact | :10:26. | :10:41. | |
between the two men may have facilitated El Cphapo's capture. | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
Authorities here and in the US would like to talk to Sean Penn -- El | :10:46. | :10:51. | |
Chapo. The authorities are seeking to extradite him as soon as | :10:52. | :10:59. | |
possible. Mexico is a country sometimes where stories are | :11:00. | :10:59. | |
unbelievable. The Government's Chief Medical | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
Officer, Dame Sally Davies, has urged junior doctors in England | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
to call off a strike She told the Sunday Times | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
she could understand their anger and frustration, but didn't | :11:12. | :11:16. | |
want patients to suffer. The doctors union, | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
the British Medical Association, says strike action demonstrates | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
the strength of feeling within the profession, | :11:23. | :11:24. | |
against proposed new employment The Prime Minister's announced | :11:25. | :11:26. | |
a ?140 million programme to either renovate, or tear down and replace | :11:27. | :11:32. | |
England's worst housing estates. David Cameron pledged to end | :11:33. | :11:34. | |
what he called 'decades of neglect' with the initiative, | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
which he hopes will also help tackle A panel of experts will choose | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
the 100 sites to be looked at. Here's our Political | :11:42. | :11:46. | |
Correspondent Ross Hawkins. Southampton's Thornhill estate, | :11:47. | :11:58. | |
in parts dilapidated and deprived. These are the kinds of tower blocks | :11:59. | :12:05. | |
and dark alleyways that should be Phyllis, who has lived | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
here for seven years, If they live in a rough area, | :12:11. | :12:17. | |
they have no pride. Therefore, they do not | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
bother with themselves, The government is investing ?140 | :12:22. | :12:23. | |
million to get early work underway. The rest, and the bulk, | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
would have to come from the private The idea is to build more affordable | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
homes on the estates I think sink housing estates, | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
many built after the war where people can feel trapped | :12:36. | :12:39. | |
in poverty and unable to get on and build a good life | :12:40. | :12:42. | |
for themselves, I think it is time, with government money and massive | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
private sector and perhaps pension sector help, to demolish the worst | :12:47. | :12:49. | |
of these and rebuild houses that people feel they can | :12:50. | :12:52. | |
have a real future in. In Southampton, there's long been | :12:53. | :12:54. | |
an aspiration to regenerate some Some work has been done, | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
but plans often hit obstacles, proposal does not mean a lot | :12:58. | :13:05. | |
without more money to back it up. The local Labour council says it | :13:06. | :13:08. | |
costs millions to revamp They fear that new homes that | :13:09. | :13:15. | |
are built could be sold off, leaving a shortage of | :13:16. | :13:20. | |
social housing for rent. We have about 10,000 people | :13:21. | :13:23. | |
on the social housing waiting list in Southampton, I don't know how | :13:24. | :13:26. | |
much money is there for them. The government is offering | :13:27. | :13:29. | |
for people who can buy or nearly The government say that tenants | :13:30. | :13:32. | |
will have their rights protected. Some are not convinced tearing down | :13:33. | :13:40. | |
with a mixture of homes. Some are not convinced tearing down | :13:41. | :13:51. | |
and starting again is the answer. It's nice, neighbourhood wardens | :13:52. | :13:53. | |
control the whole thing, they're brilliant. The problem is in the | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
people, not the housing estate. Recognition that social turn around | :13:59. | :14:01. | |
will take more than changing bricks and mortar. | :14:02. | :14:08. | |
A ceremony has been held in Paris, ending a week of commemorations | :14:09. | :14:11. | |
for the victims of the attacks, on the satirical newspaper | :14:12. | :14:13. | |
Charlie Hebdo and a Jewish supermarket a year ago. | :14:14. | :14:16. | |
People gathered in the Place de la Republique, the site of defiant | :14:17. | :14:19. | |
protests against the killings, for a minute's silence. | :14:20. | :14:20. | |
An oak tree has also been planted to commemorate the victims, | :14:21. | :14:23. | |
and those killed in the Paris shootings in November. | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
Thousands of people have held a protest in Hong Kong, | :14:28. | :14:30. | |
over the disappearance of five booksellers thought to be | :14:31. | :14:33. | |
They're all linked to the same bookshop in Hong Kong, | :14:34. | :14:39. | |
that sells publication, critical of the government in Beijing. | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
Senior figures within the Church of England, including seven | :14:44. | :14:46. | |
Archdeacons and eight retired Bishops, are among more than 100 | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
signatories to an open letter with, urging the church to acknowledge gay | :14:51. | :14:53. | |
and transgender Christians have been discriminated | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
It comes ahead of a meeting of global Anglican leaders | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
in Canterbury tomorrow, and there are fears differing views | :15:03. | :15:05. | |
Our Religious Affairs Correspondent Caroline Wyatt is there for us. | :15:06. | :15:13. | |
The Anglican communion's made up of over 80 million of the faithful in | :15:14. | :15:19. | |
over 160 countries around the world who look to Canterbury for their | :15:20. | :15:26. | |
leadership. Ever since the liberal Episcopal Church in America | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
consecrated an openly gay bishop over a decade ago, it's intensified. | :15:32. | :15:36. | |
The bant has called the leaders of the churches together around one | :15:37. | :15:40. | |
table to discuss their differences in what is being seen as many as a | :15:41. | :15:47. | |
business strategy. The crypt at Canterbury's heard many heart felt | :15:48. | :15:51. | |
prayers over the centuries. Tonight, there'll be many more as the leaders | :15:52. | :15:54. | |
of the Anglican communion come together to face their divisions | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
over sexuality that have scarred the church. | :15:58. | :16:04. | |
Jane is a leading evangelical Christian who came out as gay. She | :16:05. | :16:06. | |
was behind the letter to the Bishops was behind the letter to the Bishops | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
today. It was sent in the hope that the church can heal some of the hurt | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
felt by gay Christians. I would like to see them repent for the way that | :16:16. | :16:19. | |
they have treated and spoken about us. I would love it for the primates | :16:20. | :16:25. | |
to turn round and say gosh we've got it round. I don't think that's going | :16:26. | :16:28. | |
to happen. There is a significant part of the Church of England who | :16:29. | :16:31. | |
really worry about how the gay community is being treated and want | :16:32. | :16:36. | |
to stand up for them. But attitudes of many African countries and | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
elsewhere were active -- where active homosexuality remains a crime | :16:43. | :16:46. | |
remain difficult to find common ground with opposition to gay | :16:47. | :16:50. | |
marriage and openly gay bishops in some countries. More conservative | :16:51. | :16:54. | |
voices here like the former Bishop of Rochester says the church must | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
stick to its biblical routes. It's about the source of authority, | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
whether we just make it up as we go along or does the church still | :17:03. | :17:06. | |
acknowledge the authority of the Bible and the unanimous teaching of | :17:07. | :17:11. | |
the whole church, not just the Anglican communion for 2,000 years. | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
This Chappell is where many of the primates will gather to pray and | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
reflect this week -- chapel. Many hope they can overcome their | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
divisions. It's hard to see how such radically different views on | :17:27. | :17:29. | |
sexuality can be reconciled, not least while the hutch of England | :17:30. | :17:32. | |
itself is still struggling with just that issue. Some fear that this week | :17:33. | :17:38. | |
could even mark the end for the Anglican communion itself. | :17:39. | :17:42. | |
With all news of today's FA Cup action and the rest of the sport | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
here's Lizzie Greenwood-Hughes at the BBC Sports Centre. | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
The FA Cup 3rd round continued today. | :17:50. | :17:54. | |
The results are coming now, so you need to leave the room | :17:55. | :18:01. | |
if you want to wait for Match of the Day which follows the news | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
or if you're in Scotland, it's after Sportscene which has | :18:07. | :18:08. | |
But their Premier League colleagues Swansea suffered by far the biggest | :18:09. | :18:15. | |
shock losing to League 2's Oxford United. | :18:16. | :18:17. | |
Our Correspondent Andy Swiss has the details. | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
A hefty shock on the day the FA Cup and Oxford delivered a Gooled | :18:22. | :18:27. | |
old-fashioned giant killing. Not that there was much sign of one when | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
Swansea took a sumptuous lead but this back heel -- good | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
old-fashioned. Penalty to Oxford coolly despatched. If that got them | :18:39. | :18:42. | |
excite, what followed after the break was something else. | :18:43. | :18:50. | |
It's a beauty! Step forward 23-year-old Roof, first fired Oxford | :18:51. | :18:58. | |
exquisitely ahead and minutes later, Roofe raised precisely that! He's | :18:59. | :19:05. | |
scored! The underdogs were in dream land, Swansea did pull one back but | :19:06. | :19:12. | |
it was Oxford's day. Everyone's bouncing and the atmosphere in the | :19:13. | :19:15. | |
crowd, they were going crazy and it's the same in the dressing room | :19:16. | :19:20. | |
now. Chelsea know all about FA Cup upsets but after shock defeat to | :19:21. | :19:23. | |
Bradford last year, there were no such slip ups against Scunthorpe. | :19:24. | :19:29. | |
Costa's early goal eased any nerves and, after the break, Loftus-Cheek | :19:30. | :19:33. | |
sealed a 2-0 win. For all their recent problems, something for the | :19:34. | :19:37. | |
owner to smile about. Leicester City meanwhile looked on | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
course to continue their impressive form after initially trailing | :19:42. | :19:46. | |
Tottenham, this solo effort gave them a lead. In the closing minutes, | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
