Welcome to Outside Source on BBC News.

:00:12.:00:13.

Ukraine says it's foiled a plan to launch multiple terror attacks

:00:14.:00:16.

during the Euro 2016 championships, which begin

:00:17.:00:19.

We're going to look at the Battle to reclaim Falluja

:00:20.:00:25.

Now allegations that Shia militia fighting on the side of the Iraqi

:00:26.:00:32.

Graffiti at a school - normally nothing new,

:00:33.:00:37.

but we'll tell you why this mural was left as a gift by Banksy.

:00:38.:00:44.

Ukraine says it's foiled a plan to launch multiple attacks

:00:45.:01:05.

during the Euro2016 soccer championships, which begin

:01:06.:01:09.

There are pictures of the seizure at Ukraine's border with Poland -

:01:10.:01:15.

one Frenchman was arrested - and officers uncovered

:01:16.:01:17.

a huge arsenal of weapons going across the border.

:01:18.:01:22.

These are the weapons - 125 kilos of TNT, two anti-tank

:01:23.:01:31.

grenade launchers, 100 detonators and other guns and ammunition

:01:32.:01:38.

Tom Burridge is in Kiev - here is his report.

:01:39.:01:45.

Caught in a Ukrainian sting operation, these pictures have no

:01:46.:01:47.

sound but officials here say they show a Frenchman

:01:48.:01:50.

planning several terror attacks during the Euro

:01:51.:01:53.

Here he is filmed stashing a box of rocket propelled

:01:54.:02:00.

Watch here as he appears to use a blanket to wrap up

:02:01.:02:06.

Then two rocket propelled grenade launchers go into a sack

:02:07.:02:12.

Ukraine security service told us the man had earmarked

:02:13.:02:18.

15 targets in Western Europe, including a synagogue, a mosque,

:02:19.:02:24.

But as the Frenchman tries to cross the border from Ukraine into Poland

:02:25.:02:30.

and into the European Union, Ukrainian police swoop.

:02:31.:02:34.

The man is arrested and a full arsenal of weapons in the van.

:02:35.:02:39.

In total, five machine guns, 6000 bullets, and

:02:40.:02:44.

The man who was arrested has not been named but he has been described

:02:45.:02:50.

as an ultranationalist who was apparently unhappy

:02:51.:02:53.

about high levels of immigration in France.

:02:54.:03:07.

TRANSLATION: In 2015 we learnt the French citizen

:03:08.:03:09.

arrived in Ukraine claiming to be offering volunteer aid.

:03:10.:03:11.

He made contact with members of the Armed Forces,

:03:12.:03:13.

promising to deliver equipment, but during this process

:03:14.:03:16.

he indicated his interest in purchasing weapons,

:03:17.:03:19.

explosives, and other means of destruction.

:03:20.:03:21.

There are questions tonight about how easy it is to buy

:03:22.:03:24.

machine guns and explosives here in the Ukraine.

:03:25.:03:28.

But the country's security service is claiming a massive coup,

:03:29.:03:32.

saying it has prevented mass murder just days before Euro 2016

:03:33.:03:37.

Security will be tight throughout the tournament.

:03:38.:03:42.

Today England were among the teams arriving in France ahead

:03:43.:03:45.

Many of the details about the operation by police

:03:46.:03:50.

The authorities in France say their investigation

:03:51.:03:58.

is about arms trafficking and not terrorism.

:03:59.:04:05.

James Reynolds is in Paris - here is how the French authorities

:04:06.:04:08.

I think the French authorities will be worried, they will be reassured

:04:09.:04:21.

that Ukraine had been tracking the suspects for some time, and the

:04:22.:04:26.

French authorities say the as prepared as they can be for the

:04:27.:04:31.

start of the Euros. They will deploy about 90,000 officers, police

:04:32.:04:36.

officers, soldiers, and security agents to guard 51 that all matches

:04:37.:04:42.

to be played in ten different stadiums, and in Harris they need

:04:43.:04:49.

about 10,000 officers, they may even bring in reinforcements of 3000. The

:04:50.:04:55.

Paris prefect of police has been talking about the fan zones in

:04:56.:05:00.

certain cities, when there are matches on and people cannot go to

:05:01.:05:03.

stadiums, they can gather to watch matches on Abe big screen and the

:05:04.:05:09.

risk concern about security in those areas, although the prefect of

:05:10.:05:13.

police as they are as confirmed as they can be.

:05:14.:05:15.

It's been two weeks since the Iraqi army started trying to recapture

:05:16.:05:18.

It's been held by so-called Islamic State for

:05:19.:05:21.

That's longer than any other city in Iraq or Syria.

:05:22.:05:24.

The army has surrounded it with the help of Shia militias.

:05:25.:05:27.

But it is a mainly Sunni city - and around 50 thousand

:05:28.:05:30.

Some ARE managing to get out but others - from a town to

:05:31.:05:36.

the north - say they were tortured under interrogation.

:05:37.:05:40.

Many desperate, others in need of water and medical treatment after

:05:41.:05:46.

fleeing the fighting around the city of Falluja.

:05:47.:05:48.

They follow a steady stream of mostly Sunni families

:05:49.:05:50.

leaving their homes as the fighting continues.

:05:51.:05:52.

But some of these people claim they were tortured by the Shia

:05:53.:05:55.

militia, an ally of the Iraqi army fighting so-called Islamic State.

:05:56.:06:00.

They claim to have suffered more than routine interrogation.

:06:01.:06:05.

TRANSLATION: They almost slaughtered us, but we got out

:06:06.:06:08.

TRANSLATION: I swear to God, they beat me with a baton

:06:09.:06:18.

They threatened to kill anyone who asked for water.

:06:19.:06:22.

TRANSLATION: We told them we were seeking God's protection and

:06:23.:06:24.

their protection, and they responded by saying,

:06:25.:06:26.

you are our enemies, you don't deserve our protection.

:06:27.:06:30.

Claims four people died under interrogation

:06:31.:06:33.

TRANSLATION: This does not get along with our faith or our ethics,

:06:34.:06:39.

We may make mistakes here and there as individuals,

:06:40.:06:42.

but we hold those individuals accountable.

:06:43.:06:45.

Falluja has always been a hotbed of Sunni defiance and lies

:06:46.:06:48.

It has been held by IS since 2014, and is one of the remaining

:06:49.:06:55.

Iraq's army began fighting to retake the city late last month

:06:56.:07:01.

and on Sunday said it had all but encircled the city.

:07:02.:07:05.

Despite government advances, these latest claims underlying fears

:07:06.:07:08.

already voiced by human rights groups that atrocities

:07:09.:07:12.

They show that even if IS can be defeated, Iraq's sectarian divide

:07:13.:07:20.

I spoke with Sebastian Usher about what we know about the people

:07:21.:07:29.

who say they have been detainable and interrogate.

:07:30.:07:31.

Some of them were trying to get to the army rather than the militias

:07:32.:07:35.

and they say they weren't able to get through, that the Shia

:07:36.:07:39.

militias took them in, and in the interrogations,

:07:40.:07:41.

which were about whether they are members or sympathised with IS,

:07:42.:07:48.

You see that people have had injuries but those could have been

:07:49.:07:54.

from the fighting itself, but some people have been saying

:07:55.:07:58.

they were hit with shovels, they were denied any food or water

:07:59.:08:03.

for two days, one person said they were made

:08:04.:08:07.

to drink their own urine, so a kind of humiliation,

:08:08.:08:12.

psychological torture as well as physical torture.

:08:13.:08:14.

They also say one or two of the people died during

:08:15.:08:17.

How big a role is that of the Shia militias in this whole operation

:08:18.:08:25.

and where do we stand with the recapture of Falluja?

:08:26.:08:28.

It is a big role and it is one that the Shia brigades have been

:08:29.:08:33.

playing in the government's battle against IS for some time

:08:34.:08:37.

but it is sensitive and each town the government is trying to retake,

:08:38.:08:42.

it is sensitive for Shia to go in because Falluja is a Sunni town,

:08:43.:08:49.

it is the epicentre of the Sunni insurgency which has

:08:50.:08:52.

been going on for years, so at the moment there is a kind

:08:53.:08:58.

of prohibition on the militia going into Falluja itself.

:08:59.:09:01.

That offensive hasn't really got under way yet but they have been

:09:02.:09:05.

heavily involved in the fighting around and outside to make this

:09:06.:09:10.

That in itself is seen as provocative and some of the Shia

:09:11.:09:16.

fighters have been saying they are concerned that this battle

:09:17.:09:21.

It's been two weeks since it was launched,

:09:22.:09:25.

it seems to have got bogged down, IS is putting up fierce resistance,

:09:26.:09:29.

more than we have seen in other towns that were retaken,

:09:30.:09:34.

so the Shia are saying this concern about the people

:09:35.:09:38.

inside which the government is voicing, we need to go

:09:39.:09:41.

slowly to protect them, they say we are causing them more

:09:42.:09:44.

suffering by taking it slowly because that puts them

:09:45.:09:46.

in the control of IS and what they might do to them for longer.

:09:47.:09:54.

A 30-year-old photographer from Britain has been handed 22 life

:09:55.:09:56.

sentences after admitting abusing children in Malaysia.

:09:57.:09:59.

Richard Huckle's youngest victim was just six months old -

:10:00.:10:03.

It's thought he may have abused up to 200 children over a decade.

:10:04.:10:08.

He posed as a devout Christian and English teacher

:10:09.:10:10.

to get access to children, filming and photographing

:10:11.:10:13.

Confronted with his crimes he says no comment.

:10:14.:10:33.

This is how he wanted others to see him - a devout Christian

:10:34.:10:37.

training to be a teacher here with the British Council.

:10:38.:10:40.

But in court he admitted raping children as young as six months old

:10:41.:10:46.

and posting the footage on the so-called dark web.

:10:47.:10:56.

He gained their trust, they called him uncle, but all this was a

:10:57.:11:02.

prelude to rape and abuse. There may have been as many as 200 victims. He

:11:03.:11:09.

even wrote a digital diary about the abuse. Here he celebrates his

:11:10.:11:12.

crimes. He travelled widely, often returning

:11:13.:11:22.

to the UK. Have investigators from

:11:23.:11:27.

the National Crime Agency He attended one church in Kent

:11:28.:11:30.

and another in London, which we cannot identify

:11:31.:11:34.

for legal reasons. Online he boasted about making

:11:35.:11:36.

friends with children We now know that the NCA only

:11:37.:11:38.

contacted that church last week. That is 18 months after Huckle

:11:39.:11:42.

was first arrested. Today the agency said it had

:11:43.:11:45.

voluntarily referred itself you have a look at this for us?

:11:46.:12:02.

Could we have done anything differently? We have a culture of

:12:03.:12:08.

learning and developing and if we can learn lessons we will learn

:12:09.:12:14.

them. Christian, photographer, predatory paedophile, just 30, he

:12:15.:12:20.

faces most of the rest of his life behind bars.

:12:21.:12:27.

Coming up, we will have a present from Banksy. The graffiti artist

:12:28.:12:34.

snuck into a primary school over half term and this is what he did.

:12:35.:12:48.

Police are hunting a man in connection with the fatal stabbing

:12:49.:12:53.

of a pensioner and the disappearance of his wife. Officers are looking to

:12:54.:12:59.

question one man in connection to the case. A key person in this

:13:00.:13:09.

murder inquiry, he lives in South Essex but is originally from the

:13:10.:13:13.

former Yugoslavia. His car was found on a residential street in Dover but

:13:14.:13:18.

there is a fear he may have gone abroad. Police were first contacted

:13:19.:13:24.

by relatives after Peter and Sylvia Stewart went missing six days

:13:25.:13:29.

beforehand. They searched their cottage on Friday night and found

:13:30.:13:32.

the body of a 75-year-old man believed to be bitter Stewart. He

:13:33.:13:38.

had been stabbed. There are still searching for Sylvia, who was 69,

:13:39.:13:44.

the site hopes of finding her alive are diminishing.

:13:45.:13:55.

With five days to go until the start of the Euro 2016

:13:56.:14:00.

championship in Paris, Ukraine says it's arrested a man

:14:01.:14:02.

suspected planning a string of terrorist attacks in France.

:14:03.:14:06.

Let's show you what some of our language services are reporting on.

:14:07.:14:10.

BBC Mundo reports that partial results in Peru's presidential

:14:11.:14:12.

election have given former World Bank executive, Pedro Pablo

:14:13.:14:15.

His opponent Keiko Fujimori had a strong lead ahead of the vote

:14:16.:14:18.

on Sunday but corruption scandals in her Popular Force party

:14:19.:14:21.

French cosmetics giant Lancome has cancelled a promotional concert

:14:22.:14:27.

in Hong Kong after booking a well-known pro-democracy

:14:28.:14:30.

The news has triggered calls in Chinese online forums

:14:31.:14:35.

for a boycott of Lancome - and led to Lancome cancelling,

:14:36.:14:38.

And online many of you are reading about Mark Zuckerburg.

:14:39.:14:45.

The founder of Facebook has his accounts on Instagram, Twitter,

:14:46.:14:49.

A group called Ourmine claimed responsibility,

:14:50.:14:55.

bragging about the alleged hacks in a tweet and inviting

:14:56.:14:58.

Now to Belgium where a train crash has left at least three people dead

:14:59.:15:06.

It happened here, in the town of Hermalle-sous-Huy, near Liege.

:15:07.:15:12.

Let's show you some of the pictures that have come into the newsroom.

:15:13.:15:16.

It happened when a passenger train crashed into the back of

:15:17.:15:19.

The two were on the same track according to a spokesman

:15:20.:15:23.

Nick Beake has been to the scene of the crash.

:15:24.:15:30.

As the morning mist lifted in eastern Belgium, the crumpled

:15:31.:15:32.

Authorities say a high-speed passenger service ploughed

:15:33.:15:38.

into the back of a freight train travelling on the same line.

:15:39.:15:42.

The front passenger carriage was crushed by the impact

:15:43.:15:45.

and derailed along with the one behind.

:15:46.:15:47.

Emergency services carefully pulled out survivors but others

:15:48.:15:51.

TRANSLATION: The authorities have confirmed that three people have

:15:52.:15:58.

died and nine received injuries of differing severity.

:15:59.:16:02.

All the casualties have been taken for treatment and investigators

:16:03.:16:06.

were on scene to determine the cause of the accident, so the

:16:07.:16:10.

Some of the injured are critically ill byt the local mayor said

:16:11.:16:14.

it was remarkable more people haven't been hurt.

:16:15.:16:19.

TRANSLATION: The speed of the passenger train was about 90

:16:20.:16:22.

kilometres per hour, so the crash scene was apocalyptic.

:16:23.:16:26.

It was a scrap heap, a carriage totally crushed in two,

:16:27.:16:30.

Only around 40 passengers were on board.

:16:31.:16:39.

Had it been rush hour, there would have been

:16:40.:16:42.

Belgian trains generally have a good safety record.

:16:43.:16:47.

Investigators are now trying to work out who or what was to

:16:48.:16:50.

Business News now. We're talking about the value of the pound, which

:16:51.:17:29.

has fallen sharply against the dollar and the euro. They would be a

:17:30.:17:41.

period of uncertainty if we were to leave and that has got people

:17:42.:17:46.

worried about the value of sterling. Generally the currency is like the

:17:47.:17:51.

share price of a country. If there is confidence it goes

:17:52.:17:59.

up, it means if we were to leave the EU and sterling fell, our exports

:18:00.:18:05.

would be cheaper, to customers overseas. That is a good thing, but

:18:06.:18:10.

imports that came the other way would get for expensive, and as a

:18:11.:18:15.

country we import more than we export so some people here prices

:18:16.:18:20.

could rise. How much uncertainty it would have would be up for debate,

:18:21.:18:25.

some people think they would be a short-term burst and things would

:18:26.:18:32.

come down, but the more likely Brexit looks as we come up to the

:18:33.:18:36.

referendum, the more likely sterling would be to fall. It could be short

:18:37.:18:42.

lived but expect sterling to bounce around a lot over the next few

:18:43.:18:50.

weeks. A US Business Secretary has urged China to review its steel

:18:51.:18:58.

strategy. China has been accused of selling below market prices. Samuel

:18:59.:19:04.

Hussain is a new work. What have they been saying? This issue with

:19:05.:19:10.

regard to steal, there is a prelude to the story. A few weeks ago the US

:19:11.:19:18.

issued a massive tax on all Chinese steel and the big problem is

:19:19.:19:21.

that China is not reducing the amount of steel it is producing

:19:22.:19:27.

enough, so there is a big lot on the global steel

:19:28.:19:32.

markets, and a big part of that has to do with the fact that we are

:19:33.:19:37.

seeing an economic slowdown in China, so domestic Kelly there is

:19:38.:19:44.

not as much need for this deal and aluminium and so they are flooding

:19:45.:19:47.

the market with that, so part of what the US has tried to do is

:19:48.:19:52.

impose a massive tax here in the US to try to discourage American

:19:53.:19:59.

companies from using Chinese steel, and also in China, we see the

:20:00.:20:05.

Secretary of State is in China speaking to his counterparts. And

:20:06.:20:12.

another story making waves, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg's accounts

:20:13.:20:18.

hacked. It seems everyone can get their accounts hacked. Mark

:20:19.:20:24.

Zuckerberg's accounts were hacked and apparently this has to do with a

:20:25.:20:30.

LinkedIn password breach, so a few weeks ago LinkedIn had sent everyone

:20:31.:20:35.

a notice to change their passwords. It seems Mark Zuckerberg did not do

:20:36.:20:41.

that and as a result in online hacking group was able to find his

:20:42.:20:47.

details and have a little fun with his Twitter account, but everything

:20:48.:20:53.

has been changed and a spokesperson for Facebook says none of Facebook

:20:54.:21:00.

was back stuff has been compromised. It makes you wonder, if he can be

:21:01.:21:04.

hacked, or what happens to all of us? I tell you, I'd changed my

:21:05.:21:10.

LinkedIn account information after I read the story. Thank you.

:21:11.:21:33.

Statistically speaking, travelling by plane is one

:21:34.:21:35.

of the safest forms of transport available.

:21:36.:21:37.

That doesn't mean though you can ignore safety.

:21:38.:21:39.

And the airline industry is becoming increasingly aware of a less

:21:40.:21:41.

recognised safety challenge - cyber security.

:21:42.:21:43.

Our correspondent Theo Leggett caught up with a leading security

:21:44.:21:45.

expert, Matthew Finn, and asked how serious it could be?

:21:46.:21:55.

Someone could get hold of the aircraft's systems, so whereas

:21:56.:22:01.

before the worry has been about X those of us getting on the airport,

:22:02.:22:06.

now we are worrying about it from a cyber standpoint. But none of this

:22:07.:22:13.

has happened, so how seriously are airline defence officials taking

:22:14.:22:20.

this? There have in cases recently, the year was one example, just

:22:21.:22:26.

because it has not happened does not mean it could not happen, so there

:22:27.:22:31.

is a possible look taking place about how cyber security could pose

:22:32.:22:37.

a risk to aviation and then look at lowering that risk.

:22:38.:22:43.

from their half term holidays - to find this.

:22:44.:22:45.

Children at a school in England have returned

:22:46.:22:47.

from their half term holidays - to find this.

:22:48.:22:49.

It's a present from the graffiti artist Banksy.

:22:50.:22:51.

Teachers and pupils at Bridge Farm Primary were amazed

:22:52.:22:53.

to discover the painting when they arrived this morning.

:22:54.:22:55.

Our correspondent Jon Kay can explain.

:22:56.:23:06.

Not a typical lunchtime at Bridge Farm Primary.

:23:07.:23:08.

A 14ft Banksy original in the playground.

:23:09.:23:10.

It was seven-year-old Charlie who wrote to Banksy to tell him

:23:11.:23:14.

pupils had named a house after the Bristol-born artist.

:23:15.:23:16.

What did you think when you came into school this morning

:23:17.:23:18.

What is your message to him for doing this for the school?

:23:19.:23:28.

Thank you so much for this really good picture.

:23:29.:23:34.

The caretaker found this letter stuck to a gutter pipe

:23:35.:23:36.

Inside, a handwritten letter from Banksy in which he says,

:23:37.:23:41.

If you don't like the artwork I've done, feel free to add stuff.

:23:42.:23:46.

I am sure the teachers won't mind," he says.

:23:47.:23:48.

And then, "Remember, it's always easier to get

:23:49.:23:51.

Teachers would normally be warning children
