The worst single atrocity in Northern Ireland, | :00:00. | :00:08. | |
and what looks like the last chance for a criminal trial has collapsed. | :00:09. | :00:13. | |
29 people died in the Omagh bombing 17 years ago, | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
including three generations of one family. | :00:17. | :00:19. | |
Seamus Daly, the last suspect charged with the attack, | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
The families of the victims voice their despair. | :00:24. | :00:27. | |
I think most families have given up on justice. They've given up on the | :00:28. | :00:33. | |
criminal justice system because they've been let down so many times. | :00:34. | :00:35. | |
The prosecution dropped the case after concluding a key | :00:36. | :00:37. | |
So can there ever be justice for Omagh now? | :00:38. | :00:40. | |
As more migrants are trapped in Greece, the UN says Europe | :00:41. | :00:44. | |
is on the cusp of a largely self-induced humanitarian crisis. | :00:45. | :00:51. | |
We're with the Russian forces in Syria, where many of the migrants | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
Could this be the night Donald Trump all but wins the Republican | :00:55. | :01:00. | |
And the health survey of babies that started back in 1946, | :01:01. | :01:09. | |
70 years later, thousands are still taking part. | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
And coming up in Sportsday on BBC News, Leicester City have been | :01:14. | :01:16. | |
in action tonight trying to extend their lead at the top | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
The Omagh bombing was the worst, single atrocity of Northern | :01:20. | :01:50. | |
Ireland's troubles, but now, 17 years on, | :01:51. | :01:52. | |
what looks like the last chance to put those allegedly responsible | :01:53. | :01:55. | |
The case against the only remaining suspect charged with the attack | :01:56. | :01:59. | |
The prosecution said a key witness was unreliable. | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
Seamus Daly, who has always denied the murders of 29 people in the Real | :02:06. | :02:09. | |
IRA attack, has walked free from prison. | :02:10. | :02:10. | |
Our Correspondent Chris Buckler is in Omagh for us tonight. | :02:11. | :02:20. | |
August 15, 1998 stands unparalleled. Even in Northern Ireland's history | :02:21. | :02:27. | |
of brutality. A car bomb exploded on Even in Northern Ireland's history | :02:28. | :02:36. | |
that busy Saturday afternoon when Omagh was filled with families. By | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
evening parents and families were grieving. 18 years later shots have | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
been repaired, this street rebuilt, but nothing is forgotten here. There | :02:45. | :02:52. | |
are families like the Gallaghers who have put their hopes in | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
investigations. But today in court they learned all charges were being | :02:56. | :03:00. | |
dropped against Seamus Daly, including the murder of Michael | :03:01. | :03:04. | |
Gallagher's son Aidan. Its soul destroying. If you noticed here this | :03:05. | :03:07. | |
morning there's not many families because I think most families have | :03:08. | :03:11. | |
given up on justice, they've given up on the criminal justice system | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
because they've been let down so many times. Seamus Daly has always | :03:15. | :03:22. | |
strongly denied any part in the 29 murders at Omagh. I'd like to ask | :03:23. | :03:27. | |
you some questions please about the Omagh bombing. In 2000 the BBC's | :03:28. | :03:32. | |
panorama programme tried to confront him with evidence they claimed | :03:33. | :03:36. | |
showed he was involved in the bombing. One thing I'd like you to | :03:37. | :03:42. | |
explain, Mr Daly, is how you came to be in possession of a mobile | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
telephone. Key to the prosecution case was a mobile phone used by the | :03:48. | :03:52. | |
bombers. Their witness said he could connect Seamus Daly to the phone but | :03:53. | :03:57. | |
in court he gave inconsistent evidence and contradicted his | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
earlier testimony. The prosecution against the defendant Seamus Daly | :04:01. | :04:09. | |
was based on a house of straw. In Omagh's memorial garden they | :04:10. | :04:12. | |
remember all of those killed. But the failure of this case means only | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
one man has been prosecuted for the killings in Omagh. In December 2007 | :04:18. | :04:22. | |
Sean Hoey was acquitted and cleared of involvement in the attacks after | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
a lengthy criminal. Two years later for other men including Seamus Daly | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
were found liable for the bombing in a civil case brought by some of the | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
Omagh families but they continued to push for criminal convictions and | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
two years ago Seamus Daly was arrested and charged. However today | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
the case against him collapsed, with the prosecutors admitting they | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
didn't have enough evidence. For police to bring it to that level | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
where it's even been at a committal hearing was pointless, and I don't | :04:55. | :04:59. | |
understand why they put families continually through it. | :05:00. | :05:03. | |
understand why they put families afternoon Seamus Daly left McGaw | :05:04. | :05:05. | |
through prison where he has been held on remand for almost two years. | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
He is no longer wanted in connection with the Omagh bombing, and it's | :05:13. | :05:14. | |
understood police have no ongoing elites. For the families of all 29 | :05:15. | :05:21. | |
people killed, among them babies, children, a woman pregnant with | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
twins, today leaves them with little prospect of anyone being prosecuted | :05:27. | :05:27. | |
for their murders. I spoke to prosecutors this morning, | :05:28. | :05:35. | |
they said they understood families would be disappointed, and they are, | :05:36. | :05:38. | |
and in many cases they are both upset and angry. There are some | :05:39. | :05:45. | |
relatives of those who were killed who want a full cross-border enquiry | :05:46. | :05:48. | |
into what happened in the street behind me. But they are all resigned | :05:49. | :05:56. | |
tonight that it looks highly unlikely there will ever be a | :05:57. | :05:57. | |
criminal prosecution. Europe is on the cusp of a largely | :05:58. | :05:58. | |
self-induced humanitarian crisis, according to the UN, | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
as a bottleneck of thousands of migrants and refugees continues | :06:02. | :06:03. | |
to build on the border of Greece, trapped by Macedonia's decision | :06:04. | :06:06. | |
to close its border. New figures from the UN show 131,000 | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
migrants have already crossed into Europe by sea in 2016, | :06:13. | :06:15. | |
that's 10 times more The most common route for those | :06:16. | :06:17. | |
fleeing conflict in the middle east continues to be from Turkey | :06:18. | :06:26. | |
across to the Greek Islands and then onto mainland Greece | :06:27. | :06:28. | |
and up through Macedonia. But further north countries | :06:29. | :06:30. | |
like Austria are defying pressure to relax their border restrictions | :06:31. | :06:32. | |
and let more migrants in, as our Europe Editor Katya Adler | :06:33. | :06:35. | |
reports now from Athens. Battered by the migrant crisis, | :06:36. | :06:41. | |
struggling economically. In Greece things aren't | :06:42. | :06:47. | |
what they used to be. This is Athens' old airport, | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
now a makeshift refugee camp. Filled with angry, frustrated | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
migrants, denied entry Macedonia has slammed | :06:56. | :06:56. | |
its borders shut. People here are going | :06:57. | :07:03. | |
nowhere, for now. The situation here | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
is pretty desperate. Some are threatening | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
to go on hunger strike here if the border to | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
Macedonia doesn't open. Pressure points are building | :07:13. | :07:15. | |
across Greece and it's not even yet the start of what's | :07:16. | :07:23. | |
cynically known by some Greeks Greece has come under | :07:24. | :07:25. | |
international fire for the poor treatment of migrants, | :07:26. | :07:36. | |
but now, under pressure, the authorities here say | :07:37. | :07:38. | |
they are doing their best. They've appealed for EU | :07:39. | :07:41. | |
help, and they need it. To patrol their poorest coastline, | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
stop boats coming over from Turkey, and deal | :07:47. | :07:51. | |
with the bottleneck of asylum seekers on their islands, | :07:52. | :07:54. | |
in Athens, and of course We are in Europe in | :07:55. | :07:57. | |
2016, it is frankly beyond belief that we are standing | :07:58. | :08:03. | |
here, looking as if this is a third More than 25,000 people | :08:04. | :08:06. | |
are now stranded in Greece. The fear is that number | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
could double, even triple by the end Greece's defence minister | :08:13. | :08:15. | |
told me his country's northern neighbours were naive | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
to close their borders The root of the problem, | :08:20. | :08:22. | |
he said, lies elsewhere. If they all should want | :08:23. | :08:27. | |
really to find a solution, don't press Greece, | :08:28. | :08:33. | |
but press Turkey to operate, as we have agreed in | :08:34. | :08:37. | |
Nato, and to accept back all of these people | :08:38. | :08:42. | |
rescued in the Aegean Sea. And don't give the blame | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
game to Greece. But there's many an EU country | :08:46. | :08:47. | |
that does blame Greece. Unlike them, though, | :08:48. | :08:54. | |
Greece can't put up a fence to stop migrants entering | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
its thousands of mile long island With the EU in disarray | :08:59. | :09:00. | |
and ahead of a crucial EU Turkey summit, the president | :09:01. | :09:07. | |
of the European Council is now zooming round the continent, | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
beginning today in irate Austria in an attempt | :09:12. | :09:23. | |
to attempt to mediate. If he fails there is rising panic | :09:24. | :09:27. | |
in Europe this country could turn This isn't just about small Greece | :09:28. | :09:38. | |
struggling financially, powerful Germany is under | :09:39. | :09:41. | |
huge political pressure. Neither country can afford | :09:42. | :09:43. | |
another year with another million refugees and others | :09:44. | :09:45. | |
landing on their doorstep. But EU cohesion and | :09:46. | :09:47. | |
credibility are crumbling. The migrant crisis, or better put, | :09:48. | :09:49. | |
the clumsy handling of it, Demolition of parts of the sprawling | :09:50. | :09:51. | |
migrant camp in Calais that's become known as the "jungle" | :09:52. | :10:00. | |
has been continuing. Officials say migrants can either | :10:01. | :10:02. | |
move into converted containers in another part of the camp | :10:03. | :10:04. | |
or similar accommodation centres But some migrants fear they'll be | :10:05. | :10:07. | |
forced to claim asylum in France - instead of trying to claim | :10:08. | :10:13. | |
in Britain instead. Key to reducing the flow of migrants | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
into Europe is an end The temporary ceasefire brokered | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
by Russia and America is largely holding, | :10:20. | :10:28. | |
for now, though so-called Islamic State and the al | :10:29. | :10:33. | |
Nusra Front, linked to Al Qaida, Our Correspondent Steve Rosenburg | :10:34. | :10:35. | |
has been embedded with Russian forces in the Northern Syrian | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
province of Latakia. He was taken to the villages | :10:40. | :10:42. | |
of Kinseeba and Gunaymiyah The Russian army is taking us | :10:43. | :10:44. | |
into the hills of western Syria. The Russians say they are using | :10:45. | :10:53. | |
a pause in the fighting to encourage But judging by the armoured vehicle | :10:54. | :10:56. | |
we are in, progress is slow. First stop is Gunaymiyah, | :10:57. | :11:03. | |
five years of civil war left Now we are told people | :11:04. | :11:06. | |
are starting to return home. Do you believe there | :11:07. | :11:14. | |
will be peace in Syria, It was Russian air power that helped | :11:15. | :11:16. | |
the Syrian army retake this But today the Russian | :11:17. | :11:29. | |
military has brought aid, Today Moscow accused Turkey | :11:30. | :11:35. | |
of smuggling weapons into Syria for rebel fighters, | :11:36. | :11:52. | |
and of a provocative military build-up that could damage | :11:53. | :11:54. | |
Syria's fragile peace. What happens next fits | :11:55. | :11:55. | |
the Kremlin's narrative. A Russian general radios | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
for an armoured personnel carrier. It's supposed to provide us cover | :11:59. | :12:18. | |
as we and the other journalists "Now run for it!" | :12:19. | :12:21. | |
shouts the general. After five years of civil war, | :12:22. | :12:34. | |
you can understand why many people here are sceptical | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
about the chances of peace. As we've seen the halt in fighting | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
is only partial, it's Later the general claims | :12:42. | :12:44. | |
that the blasts were artillery shells fired by terrorists | :12:45. | :12:53. | |
from close to the Turkish border. But we cannot confirm what those | :12:54. | :12:57. | |
explosions were, or Today Syria's president accused | :12:58. | :13:01. | |
rebels of violating the agreement As the Syrian army we refrain | :13:02. | :13:08. | |
from retaliating in order to give the chance for that | :13:09. | :13:15. | |
agreement to survive. But at the end everything | :13:16. | :13:18. | |
depends on the other side. Syrians are tired of war, | :13:19. | :13:21. | |
but real peace still seems Shares in Barclays dropped sharply | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
today after the bank reported Barclays also announced plans | :13:25. | :13:35. | |
to sell its controlling stake in the bank's Africa operations, | :13:36. | :13:39. | |
ending its presence on the continent Here's our economics | :13:40. | :13:41. | |
editor, Kamal Ahmed. It's been travelling in one | :13:42. | :13:46. | |
direction, and that's downward. Barclays' share price, | :13:47. | :13:50. | |
a barometer of its financial health, Today, it sank by 8%, as the bank | :13:51. | :13:52. | |
said it was cutting its dividend to investors, was struggling to make | :13:53. | :13:58. | |
profits and was quitting Jes Staley is the bank's | :13:59. | :14:01. | |
new Chief Executive, he told me the heart of Barclays, | :14:02. | :14:09. | |
the UK business and Barclaycard, There are clearly challenges | :14:10. | :14:12. | |
in running a bank given the regulatory response | :14:13. | :14:18. | |
to the financial crisis and the conduct issues | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
that banks are facing. But if you look inside of those | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
numbers, and a lot what I'm going to focus on today, | :14:25. | :14:27. | |
is Barclays has got a core franchise, which is a terrific | :14:28. | :14:29. | |
set of businesses. We are eight years after | :14:30. | :14:32. | |
the financial crisis, your annual results are still | :14:33. | :14:36. | |
littered with conduct issues. You've got new provisions | :14:37. | :14:39. | |
for payment protection mis-selling. When will banks, when can | :14:40. | :14:43. | |
the public trust that banks I do believe the banks | :14:44. | :14:45. | |
lost their way, 10, 15 years ago, and we lost a lot of trust | :14:46. | :14:52. | |
through the financial crisis. We have an obligation | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
to return that. I interviewed Jes Staley on the top | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
floor of Barclays' steel and glass This building is almost | :15:01. | :15:04. | |
from a different era, a time when banks were swashbuckling | :15:05. | :15:13. | |
global businesses making billions of pounds of profit and sowing | :15:14. | :15:15. | |
the seeds of the financial crisis. Jes Staley made it clear to me | :15:16. | :15:19. | |
that this was a different time. A time of lower profits, | :15:20. | :15:23. | |
a time of smaller bonus payments, It will be smaller here, Kenya, | :15:24. | :15:26. | |
one of the countries affected by Barclays decision | :15:27. | :15:35. | |
to pull out of Africa. Mr Staley said that regulatory rules | :15:36. | :15:39. | |
made it too expensive, despite the economies being some | :15:40. | :15:42. | |
of the fastest growing in the world. You go to places like Uganda | :15:43. | :15:47. | |
and Kenya and the brand of Barclays is as strong there as it is in | :15:48. | :15:54. | |
the UK, but we have to make some very difficult decisions if we're | :15:55. | :15:58. | |
going to get Barclays into a focused, clear, | :15:59. | :16:01. | |
compelling business model that generates returns | :16:02. | :16:04. | |
for our shareholders. Those investors will need some | :16:05. | :16:08. | |
persuading, not constantly changing It's not good for any bank to have | :16:09. | :16:10. | |
four CEOs in five years. It's more like a Premiership | :16:11. | :16:18. | |
football club than a major We had a CEO last year | :16:19. | :16:21. | |
who was a lifetime retail banker, a CEO this year who's | :16:22. | :16:25. | |
a lifetime investment banker. Not the towering giant it once was, | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
but with 110,000 employees and, as a major contributor | :16:32. | :16:34. | |
to our pensions, Mr Staley's He is the new broom, | :16:35. | :16:39. | |
can he sweep the bank clean? Britain's most senior civil servant | :16:40. | :16:42. | |
has sought to reassure ministers who want the UK to leave | :16:43. | :16:51. | |
the European Union that they Some eurosceptic MPs had argued | :16:52. | :16:55. | |
that it was unfair that access to certain material would only be | :16:56. | :16:59. | |
given to ministers who backed But, appearing before MPs, | :17:00. | :17:01. | |
Sir Jeremy Heywood said that was merely official | :17:02. | :17:05. | |
Government policy. By tomorrow morning, | :17:06. | :17:13. | |
Donald Trump may have all but won what many in his own party once | :17:14. | :17:15. | |
considered unthinkable - the Republican nomination | :17:16. | :17:21. | |
for President. Americans are voting now in what's | :17:22. | :17:22. | |
known as Super Tuesday, when nearly a dozen states get | :17:23. | :17:24. | |
to pick who will end up fighting If Trump secures enough votes, | :17:25. | :17:27. | |
his momentum may prove unstoppable. For the Democratic Party, | :17:28. | :17:33. | |
it's Hillary Clinton's chance to open up a credible gap | :17:34. | :17:35. | |
with her rival, Bernie Sanders. Our North America editor, | :17:36. | :17:37. | |
Jon Sopel, has more. Across 11 states, from Alaska | :17:38. | :17:42. | |
in the far north-west to Vermont in the east, and across a vast | :17:43. | :17:45. | |
swathe of the American south, voters are choosing who should | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
be their candidate as President. If this was decided by media | :17:52. | :17:53. | |
coverage alone, Donald Trump would already be in the White House, | :17:54. | :17:58. | |
and he was on typically pugnacious You're going to win so much, | :17:59. | :18:01. | |
you're going to call and say - please, Mr President, | :18:02. | :18:06. | |
we're so tired of winning, And I'm going to say - | :18:07. | :18:08. | |
no way, no way! We're going to make | :18:09. | :18:17. | |
America great again. When Donald Trump arrives | :18:18. | :18:19. | |
here later this evening, he's likely to have won 10 of the 11 | :18:20. | :18:22. | |
states up for grabs. In any other election cycle, | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
that would have him referred But in the Republican high command, | :18:27. | :18:29. | |
such is the fear over his divisiveness, he's seen | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
as the problem. Over the weekend, Donald Trump | :18:34. | :18:38. | |
sparked a whole news storm by refusing to disavow the support | :18:39. | :18:41. | |
of the former grand wizard of the white supremacist | :18:42. | :18:43. | |
group, the Ku Klux Klan. Would you just say, unequivocally, | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
you condemn them and you don't I mean, I don't know what group | :18:49. | :18:51. | |
you're talking about. Today, without naming Mr Trump, | :18:52. | :18:58. | |
the country's most senior Republican, the Speaker | :18:59. | :19:02. | |
of the House, Paul Ryan, Today, I want to be very | :19:03. | :19:04. | |
clear about something. If a person wants to be the nominee | :19:05. | :19:09. | |

Senator Ted Cruz, who was voting of Texas today, was | :19:27. | :19:28. | |
quick to seize on this. If Donald is the nominee, | :19:29. | :19:31. | |
Hillary Clinton, in all The Bill of Rights is | :19:32. | :19:33. | |

Hillary Clinton is poised to do equally well, finding time to stop | :19:48. | :19:52. | |
for coffee in Minnesota. Her campaign seems transformed | :19:53. | :19:58. | |
in the past 10 days. Which isn't to say that her | :19:59. | :20:00. | |
socialist rival, Bernie Sanders, is sinking, but he is going | :20:01. | :20:06. | |
to struggle to stay afloat if Hillary Clinton does as well | :20:07. | :20:09. | |

Florida. How long before people will have | :20:13. | :20:25. | |
to work until their mid-70s before A review of the state pension | :20:26. | :20:28. | |
age has been announced, prompting experts to warn people | :20:29. | :20:32. | |
to expect to work for longer before Our business editor, | :20:33. | :20:35. | |
Simon Jack, is here. Simon, working until our mid-70s, | :20:36. | :20:38. | |
is that really what lies ahead? For some of us, no, for some other | :20:39. | :20:43. | |
of us, almost certainly, depends how old you are. We are living longer. | :20:44. | :20:46. | |
That is fantastic news. It means in the future it's going to get | :20:47. | :20:48. | |
expensive to provide a state pension. So the law mandates that | :20:49. | :20:51. | |
every Parliament they have a review of the age at which you qualify for | :20:52. | :20:57. | |
a state pension. Will that mean me, many people will ask? Depend with | :20:58. | :21:02. | |
me. It depends how old you are. If were born 1961 or before the review | :21:03. | :21:05. | |
will not affect you. If you were born in the 1970s you could be | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
nudging 6 # before you qualified. Born in the 1980, early 7 o 0s. | :21:11. | :21:14. | |
People entering the workforce now may well have to work into their mid | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
70s before they qualify for a state pension. One third of all people | :21:20. | :21:27. | |
born today will live to 100 it will be very expensive many years in the | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
in the future. That is what the Government is trying to get a grip | :21:32. | :21:34. | |
on. We will know the results whether it applies to you by May 2017. I can | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
hardly wait. Thanks very much. The tech giant Apple has warned | :21:40. | :21:53. | |
the US congress that there is more that can be stolen from your phone | :21:54. | :21:57. | |
than from your house. The company is under pressure | :21:58. | :21:59. | |
to comply with a government request to produce software that | :22:00. | :22:02. | |
can unlock any iPhone. The FBI wants Apple to unlock | :22:03. | :22:04. | |
the phone of a man who carried a terrorist attack in | :22:05. | :22:07. | |
California last December. Aleem Maqbool reports | :22:08. | :22:08. | |
from Washington. 14 people died, many more were | :22:09. | :22:12. | |
injured in the terrorist attack in San Bernardino. The killers, who had | :22:13. | :22:15. | |
opened fire at an office party, later died in a shoot-out. Withle | :22:16. | :22:17. | |
them, they took many of their secrets. They did leave behind a | :22:18. | :22:20. | |
phone. One that was locked. Apple has refusedlet FBI's request to help | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
unlock it. Do you swear the testimony... This public battle | :22:24. | :22:26. | |
between one of the world's biggest companies and one of its most | :22:27. | :22:30. | |
powerful intelligence agencies was fought today before Congress. It's a | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
battle that could have implications for all of us. This case, in San | :22:34. | :22:38. | |
Bernardino, is not about the FBI. It's not about Apple. It's not about | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
Congress, it's not about anything other than trying to do a an | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
investigation in an ongoing active case. That said, of course any | :22:46. | :22:51. | |
decision by a judge in any form is going to be potentially press | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
Denningsal. What exactly is the FBI demanding of Apple? If your iPhone | :22:57. | :23:01. | |
is locked you have ten attempts to put in a password. After that all | :23:02. | :23:07. | |
data is erased. The FBI wants Apple to writ new software to disable that | :23:08. | :23:12. | |
function so you can bombard a phone with thousands of passwords until | :23:13. | :23:19. | |
one opens it. Apple is not happy. O... To order us to give them | :23:20. | :23:23. | |
something we don't have. To create an operating system that does not | :23:24. | :23:27. | |
exist. The reason it doesn't exist is because it would be too | :23:28. | :23:30. | |
dangerous. Some of you may have an iPhone in your pocket right now. If | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
you think about, it there's probably more information stored on that | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
device than a thief could steal by breaking into your house. The only | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
way we know to protect that data is through strong encryption. There are | :23:44. | :23:52. | |
those who are sceptical about Apple's stance. Others have genuine | :23:53. | :23:58. | |
concerns that if the FBI forces them to comply, that makes iPhones around | :23:59. | :24:06. | |
the world more vulnerable to attack. Aleem Maqbool, BBC News, whack | :24:07. | :24:07. | |

reaching the US has come a step closer as America's Centre | :24:18. | :24:20. | |
for Disease Control is warning that hundreds of thousands of people | :24:21. | :24:23. | |
in the US territory of Puerto Rico could become infected | :24:24. | :24:25. | |
in the coming months, leading to thousands of brain | :24:26. | :24:27. | |
damaged babies and the possible spread of infection | :24:28. | :24:30. | |

but this tropical island Welcome to the front-line | :24:37. | :24:41. | |
of the US's fight against Zika. Millions of American tourists | :24:42. | :24:47. | |
come here every year, a major concern though | :24:48. | :24:49. | |
is what they're taking These are the Zika-transmitting | :24:50. | :24:51. | |
Aedes aegypti mosquitoes On the menu, pig's blood, | :24:52. | :24:59. | |
served at skin temperature. They're being bred in this lab | :25:00. | :25:08. | |
for research into insecticides. These tiny creatures have been | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
here in Puerto Rico spreading dengue Then, a couple of years ago, | :25:13. | :25:14. | |
they started transmitting After that, at the start of this | :25:15. | :25:21. | |
year, Zika came along, with that link to babies | :25:22. | :25:26. | |
being born brain damaged. Worryingly, the insecticides used | :25:27. | :25:28. | |
to kill these mosquitoes are no longer working as well | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
as they used to. These mosquitoes are resistant | :25:33. | :25:39. | |
to one of the most commonly used Permethrin is an insecticide that | :25:40. | :25:41. | |
has been used in Puerto Rico but also in the rest | :25:42. | :25:48. | |
of the Americas for many years. Scientists are now racing to find | :25:49. | :25:51. | |
other chemicals that The insects can breathe and thrive | :25:52. | :25:54. | |
in just a few drops of water. Permethrin might not be 100% | :25:55. | :26:04. | |
effective, but fumigators are out on the streets spraying | :26:05. | :26:09. | |
entire neighbourhoods, Here, we're talking about, | :26:10. | :26:11. | |
if you're pregnant, what to do about the Zika and how | :26:12. | :26:17. | |
to protect your baby. Zika isn't considered particularly | :26:18. | :26:19. | |
harmful to most people, authorities are focussing | :26:20. | :26:26. | |
on protecting pregnant women because of that link | :26:27. | :26:27. | |
to babies being born As I told you, I use | :26:28. | :26:30. | |
repellent every day. I'm very worried about this | :26:31. | :26:47. | |
because any woman doesn't want a baby microcephaly because it's | :26:48. | :26:53. | |

the President on this global health emergency is preparing | :27:00. | :27:02. | |
for the worst. In Puerto Rico we expect | :27:03. | :27:05. | |
that there will likely be hundreds of thousands of infections | :27:06. | :27:08. | |
and potentially hundreds or thousands of women who are | :27:09. | :27:12. | |
pregnant who welcome infected. What's new and different | :27:13. | :27:22. | |
and frightening is this rate of birth defects and there's | :27:23. | :27:25. | |

News, Puerto Rico. The skies above north-east Scotland | :27:34. | :27:40. | |
were alight last night. It was probably caused | :27:41. | :27:42. | |
by a meteor shower. Many people reported seeing | :27:43. | :27:50. | |
what looked like a fireball and a bright flash, others reported | :27:51. | :27:57. | |
hearing the rumbling sound caused Most meteors aren't seen | :27:58. | :28:00. | |
by the naked eye, this one was thought to have been about 10cm | :28:01. | :28:03. | |
wide and travelling It's the biggest and oldest survey | :28:04. | :28:06. | |
of its kind in the world. In the next week, all the surviving | :28:07. | :28:46. | |
participants turn 70. It started in March 1946, | :28:47. | :28:49. | |
when scientists began to monitor There are still more than 3,000 | :28:50. | :28:54. | |
taking part in regular checks and surveys to track the many | :28:55. | :28:56. | |
changes they've experienced As our social affairs correspondent, | :28:57. | :28:58. | |
Michael Buchanan, reports there have They are perhaps the most | :28:59. | :29:02. | |
studied people on earth. Since they were born, | :29:03. | :29:05. | |
their lives have shaped how Over the coming days, | :29:06. | :29:07. | |
every one of them will celebrate All were born within a week | :29:08. | :29:11. | |
of each other in 1946. Margaret Allen has been weighed | :29:12. | :29:14. | |

each year they're sent So what is the key lesson | :29:54. | :29:56. | |
after seven decades of research? We need to invest in child health | :29:57. | :30:00. | |
and wellbeing much more in this country, in terms of health | :30:01. | :30:03. | |
and education and it's that investment, as a society, | :30:04. | :30:06. | |
that will make us all richer The study has however already | :30:07. | :30:08. | |
changed our lives over The original survey led | :30:09. | :30:11. | |
to all women being offered pain Comprehensive schools | :30:12. | :30:17. | |
were introduced after data showed bright, but poor children | :30:18. | :30:26. | |
were failing to get into grammar schools and the creation | :30:27. | :30:28. | |
of Sure Start centres can be traced to evidence showing the importance | :30:29. | :30:31. | |
of children being supported As participants like | :30:32. | :30:33. | |
