The Headlines: Paris on high alert with the flood waters | :00:00. | :00:15. | |
of the River Seine due to peak in the coming hours. | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
The basements of two of Paris's world famous art galleries | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
are cleared as the River Seine rises to dangerous levels. | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
Nice work if you can get it - a Fifa investigation shows how | :00:24. | :00:26. | |
former President Sepp Blatter and two other senior officials | :00:27. | :00:28. | |
awarded themselves $80 million in bonuses over five years. | :00:29. | :00:36. | |
With some migrant routes closed, other - more dangerous ones - open. | :00:37. | :00:43. | |
The bodies of nearly 120 people are recovered | :00:44. | :00:45. | |
And reunited - the codebreakers who changed the course of World War II. | :00:46. | :01:09. | |
With the River Seine rising by the hour, Paris | :01:10. | :01:13. | |
is in emergency mode - the river at its highest | :01:14. | :01:17. | |
Fear of flooding has led to the closure of two of the city's | :01:18. | :01:27. | |
most famous museums, the Louvre and the Musee D'Orsay. | :01:28. | :01:34. | |
Staff are moving priceless artworks from basements to the safety | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
Flooding has affected swathes of France and Germany with a dozen | :01:38. | :01:41. | |
deaths reported and widespread disruption to transport and power. | :01:42. | :01:43. | |
This statue measures the height of the Seine. Brazilians measure how | :01:44. | :02:12. | |
high it has caused -- pregames measure how high it has risen. It | :02:13. | :02:18. | |
usually reaches his toes, but now it has reached almost his face. It is | :02:19. | :02:25. | |
crazy. It has started to be very dangerous in some places. The water | :02:26. | :02:33. | |
is everywhere. The Government is declaring a state of natural | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
disaster in flooded areas outside of Paris. Rescuers have moved more than | :02:37. | :02:40. | |
20,000 people from their homes. This week, we found a town cut into. The | :02:41. | :02:47. | |
only way across is by canoe. Or tractor. Floodwaters from some zones | :02:48. | :02:59. | |
flood towards the capital. You can see why Paris is worried. The Seine | :03:00. | :03:01. | |
has riven dramatically. The museum invited us to see its | :03:02. | :03:19. | |
emergency measures. It has stopped tourist from coming and moved these | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
boxes of antiquities from the basements to the ground floor, away | :03:24. | :03:28. | |
from potential floodwater. The Mona Lisa herself lives safely on the | :03:29. | :03:35. | |
first floor. The city now waits to see if the waters will receive. For | :03:36. | :03:38. | |
years, France was concerned about its economy going under. Now it has | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
the same worry about its capital. Well, joining me via Skype, | :03:43. | :03:48. | |
from the banks of the Seine in Paris, is local resident Walid | :03:49. | :03:51. | |
Haddad. I can see that you are indeed on the | :03:52. | :04:00. | |
banks of a very flooded looking river San. Tell me what it's like. | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
It is quite impressive, as you can see, because normally this space | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
near the trees is one of the major roads, one of the major access which | :04:11. | :04:17. | |
goes from the West to the east of Paris. Now it is completely flooded. | :04:18. | :04:27. | |
Generally, it happens every year, sometimes the roads are closed. But | :04:28. | :04:37. | |
I personally never saw this before and I guess an entire generation | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
never saw that because you are actually almost reaching the panels, | :04:43. | :04:50. | |
as you can see top for me, the principal attraction of Paris, those | :04:51. | :04:58. | |
two last days is the Seine and is not the Eiffel Tower. | :04:59. | :05:05. | |
We are reading reports that even at the centre, the water is getting | :05:06. | :05:11. | |
into basements. Yes, exactly. As you can see, Paris has some parts which | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
are... Many people live across the river, many people live in boats. | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
Those guys are already quite in trouble. Many people, those | :05:22. | :05:26. | |
buildings, they live across the Seine. They are starting to be | :05:27. | :05:36. | |
worried about their basements. Lots of Parisi buildings have basements. | :05:37. | :05:43. | |
Shame, we seem to have lost that picture. A local resident in Paris | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
joining us from what was very obviously the banks of a very | :05:48. | :05:53. | |
flooded Seine, just giving us his update of what he is experiencing in | :05:54. | :05:57. | |
the city, saying he has never seen the water level quite so high. | :05:58. | :06:03. | |
Iraqi troops are spacing heavy resistance from Islamic State | :06:04. | :06:08. | |
fighters as they try to fight their way towards the Legion. More than | :06:09. | :06:11. | |
1000 members of the Iraqi forces have been wounded since the start of | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
the operation, and the military have become increasingly reliant on air | :06:16. | :06:23. | |
power. The BBC has been given rare and exclusive access to the Iraqi | :06:24. | :06:27. | |
army's aviation wings over the loser. | :06:28. | :06:34. | |
This is what the war in Iraq looks like from above. | :06:35. | :06:42. | |
We are over a village north of Fallujah. | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
The Iraqi army have been told their target is | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
a building where more than 20 fighters from the Islamic State | :06:52. | :06:55. | |
If they were there, they aren't any more. | :06:56. | :07:06. | |
For these pilots, the fight to retake Fallujah has been a | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
24-hour-a-day full-time job and each day it is just getting harder. | :07:10. | :07:19. | |
There are roughly 50,000 civilians trapped | :07:20. | :07:20. | |
inside the city and many believe they are being used as human | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
The pilot on this helicopter told us, from the sky, | :07:24. | :07:34. | |
it's difficult now to know who is your enemy | :07:35. | :07:36. | |
For some, this battle is incredibly personal. | :07:37. | :07:39. | |
Mohammad was in London on | :07:40. | :07:40. | |
a training course when he heard that IS had taken over his neighbourhood | :07:41. | :07:43. | |
He couldn't get in touch with his family for four days. | :07:44. | :07:55. | |
TRANSLATION: I asked my neighbour to sneak into my home, | :07:56. | :07:57. | |
take our family photos and keep them safe. | :07:58. | :08:03. | |
He said he couldn't because Isis had already | :08:04. | :08:05. | |
been inside my house and had written on my walls that they would kill me. | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
I dropped the bomb that destroyed my house. | :08:10. | :08:13. | |
Mohammad said he will never return to Falluja, but he will keep | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
And IS are fighting back with everything they have. | :08:19. | :08:36. | |
Including anti-aircraft weapons, but this time they missed. | :08:37. | :08:44. | |
Unharmed, they are asked to help the injured. | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
The military believes they are facing up to 3000 | :08:49. | :08:52. | |
IS fighters in Falluja, but right now, their biggest concern | :08:53. | :08:56. | |
TRANSLATION: The most difficult thing is making the distinction | :08:57. | :09:07. | |
We are taking our time to get it right. | :09:08. | :09:13. | |
Even if they are family members of an IS fighter, | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
Falluja cannot be retaken by air strikes alone, but it is an | :09:18. | :09:24. | |
For now, the city remains riddled with fighting and terrified | :09:25. | :09:30. | |
Lawyers for Fifa say three former high-ranking officials | :09:31. | :09:46. | |
including Sepp Blatter, awarded themselves pay rises | :09:47. | :09:54. | |
and bonuses totalling eighty million dollars between 2011 and 2015. | :09:55. | :09:57. | |
The evidence will be given to American and Swiss prosecutors | :09:58. | :09:59. | |
who are investigating corruption within Fifa. | :10:00. | :10:01. | |
The announcement came on the back of yet another raid on Fifa | :10:02. | :10:04. | |
Pitch Conway from BBC sport is with me. Fever have called this a | :10:05. | :10:22. | |
co-ordinated attempt by these men to enrich themselves. Yes, staggering | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
figures. $80 million over the course of five years. Bonuses paid for | :10:27. | :10:31. | |
things like the success of a World Cup in South Africa in 2010 or | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
Brazil in 2014. For the Confederations Cup, the tournament | :10:36. | :10:41. | |
traditionally played the year before those, things like if all the teams | :10:42. | :10:45. | |
and games were completed, a winner awarded at the end, basic trigger | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
payments for these enormous sums of money. What fever's lawyers say, | :10:49. | :10:55. | |
they have conducted an internal investigation into this, they have | :10:56. | :10:58. | |
uncovered these secret contracts known to only a few people at the | :10:59. | :11:02. | |
very top of the organisation. They say that these contracts will now be | :11:03. | :11:09. | |
handed over to the US and Swiss authorities because some of the | :11:10. | :11:16. | |
provisions in those contracts,, goes to show the staggering sums of money | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
that were swilling around at the top end of fever between its leadership | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
in that period of time. Staggering indeed and talking of lawyers, we | :11:26. | :11:29. | |
have heard from the US lawyer of Sepp Blatter, the former president | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
of fever, involved in this scandal. He said that these compensation | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
payments received where, quote, proper, fair and in line with those | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
of the heads of other major professional sports leagues. The key | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
difference in us... He is trying to say on behalf of sent -- Sepp | :11:46. | :11:53. | |
Blatter, he was not the head of sports organisation, he was head of | :11:54. | :11:57. | |
fever. Their argument is of a proper levels of compensation for people in | :11:58. | :12:01. | |
those positions. It is one of those arguments that will be ongoing. | :12:02. | :12:04. | |
Fever's own lawyers are determined again to show that they are | :12:05. | :12:10. | |
reformed, that the organisation is serious about cleaning up its act. | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
Some of those amounts that Sepp Blatter signed off, perhaps are in | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
breach of Swiss law. That is where it becomes a serious problem and | :12:19. | :12:21. | |
where Sepp Blatter we will believe will have to answer questions. He is | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
already the subject of one criminal investigation and it will be | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
interesting to see how this was authorities view these latest | :12:29. | :12:28. | |
development. Thank you. It has been a particularly deadly | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
day for migrants attempting the dangerous crossing | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
of the Mediterranean. The bodies of at least 100 | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
migrants have washed up Teams have been working to recover | :12:39. | :12:40. | |
the bodies which are coming ashore in the western Libyan | :12:41. | :12:44. | |
town of Zuwarah. We've been told that of the 117 | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
victims that were found - According to the Red Cross, | :12:49. | :12:51. | |
little else is known For those that were washed ashore | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
on the coast of Libya in the last days, we don't know their country | :12:57. | :13:06. | |
of origin, although the majority of people that travel | :13:07. | :13:08. | |
through the Libya route towards Italy do come | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
from sub-Saharan Africa. But I think, in addition | :13:14. | :13:13. | |
to the incident that we've on the coast of Libya, | :13:14. | :13:14. | |
we're also seeing reports of further sinkings and further incidents | :13:15. | :13:21. | |
off the coast of Crete. So at present we're witnessing | :13:22. | :13:23. | |
the repeat of an unacceptable tragedy on a scale which we can't | :13:24. | :13:26. | |
continue to ignore. When I saw indication from my | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
colleagues of the Libyan Red Cross, having retrieved these bodies, | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
I myself was quite surprised to see that the larger proportion of people | :13:35. | :13:41. | |
in Libya were women. However, it's worth noting that | :13:42. | :13:43. | |
in addition to the bodies that were retrieved from the beaches | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
yesterday, as part of what Libyan Red Crescent do, | :13:47. | :13:48. | |
over 100 more bodies were seen at sea today by the Libyan coast | :13:49. | :13:51. | |
guard, according to reports. So I think at this early stage, | :13:52. | :13:53. | |
it's not possible to tell whether or not this is some type | :13:54. | :13:56. | |
of shift, but certainly, regardless, I think it's worth | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
viewing that these are people who are coming to seek hope, | :14:00. | :14:01. | |
coming to seek some safety, coming to seek dignity, | :14:02. | :14:04. | |
and until a change in the factors that cause these people to move, | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
we're going to continue to see people that are taking the difficult | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
choice to put themselves into boats It was a luckier outcome | :14:13. | :14:15. | |
for 340 migrants who have been rescued | :14:16. | :14:25. | |
off the coast of Crete. A large search operation is underway | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
to find any other survivors after a boat with hundreds | :14:29. | :14:33. | |
of migrants on board capsized. Four bodies have been | :14:34. | :14:36. | |
recovered so far. Most of the survivors are on board | :14:37. | :14:38. | |
a cargo vessel heading for Italy. It's unclear how many | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
people were on the boat. Thomas Fessy is in Agias Galinis, | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
a village in southern Crete. What more can you tell us? Just a | :14:48. | :15:04. | |
moment ago, a vessel from the Greek coastguard actually adopted here and | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
they are not allowed to speak to the media, so they couldn't tell us much | :15:10. | :15:17. | |
more. What they did tell us is that the sea is getting rough and that | :15:18. | :15:23. | |
the maritime weather forecast could hinder the effort. Just over 100 | :15:24. | :15:29. | |
kilometres off the coast behind me. It has been a huge operation all | :15:30. | :15:34. | |
day, involving the Greek, the Italians, the Egyptian coast guards. | :15:35. | :15:39. | |
We are talking about patrol boats, but also helicopters, planes, and | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
what we know is that, crucial to this operation, has been the | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
presence of commercial ships, in the vicinity of the sinking. We | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
understand that a Norwegian gas tanker, a Norwegian owned gas tanker | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
was the closest and therefore the fastest to get to the scene, rescued | :15:58. | :16:04. | |
over 200 survivors and it is heading to Italy. Others are now on their | :16:05. | :16:11. | |
way to Malta or Turkey and Egypt. Obviously, the main question tonight | :16:12. | :16:16. | |
is, how many more? Is it dozens or hundreds or any at all that are | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
still to be rescued out there in the sea? We still don't know exactly how | :16:21. | :16:25. | |
many were on board and where they were headed to. Yes, exactly. We | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
don't know where they were coming from for a start and we don't know | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
where they were headed to. We don't know how many were on board. The | :16:36. | :16:39. | |
International organisation for migration says that the kind of | :16:40. | :16:46. | |
boats that were described as a large shipping boat could carry up to 700 | :16:47. | :16:53. | |
people, but obviously this is speculation. We don't know how many | :16:54. | :17:01. | |
were on that boat. Hundreds for sure, but how many more have yet to | :17:02. | :17:07. | |
be rescued, remains a question. Where were they going? That is | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
another question. It is quite unusual to see migrant boats sinking | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
off the coast of Crete, but just in the last week we have seen a group | :17:17. | :17:27. | |
of a hundred Afghans landing. Whether it is more than flimsy | :17:28. | :17:34. | |
boats, carried away in the currents as they were trying for a much | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
longer journey and to the Italian coast, that is more likely. But we | :17:40. | :17:41. | |
don't know. Good to talk to you. Despite the many obstacles put | :17:42. | :17:44. | |
in their way, Europe's migrants are still travelling | :17:45. | :17:47. | |
through the Balkans. The deal between Turkey | :17:48. | :17:48. | |
and the EU was meant to close down the most popular - | :17:49. | :17:50. | |
and one of the most dangerous - routes used | :17:51. | :17:53. | |
by people-smugglers across the sea. But it's been quickly replaced | :17:54. | :17:59. | |
by others across land borders. Our correspondent Nick Thorpe | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
travelled to Bulgaria's capital Sofia and Vidin, | :18:05. | :18:05. | |
in the north-west, to explain why the country's become significant | :18:06. | :18:08. | |
for people trying Bulgaria's capital has become | :18:09. | :18:09. | |
an important staging post on the migrant route to Western | :18:10. | :18:30. | |
Europe. That's because the sea route | :18:31. | :18:32. | |
between Turkey and Greece has been largely closed down | :18:33. | :18:35. | |
and because the smugglers, who get people across even | :18:36. | :18:38. | |
the most fortified border, The migrants gather around | :18:39. | :18:41. | |
the Lions Bridge near the centre of Sofia, looking for the driver | :18:42. | :18:50. | |
who will get them to Serbia, We jump out the car | :18:51. | :18:52. | |
and walk in the jungle From there, you go back to Serbia | :18:53. | :19:00. | |
and the Serbian police catch us From Sofia, we journeyed | :19:01. | :19:08. | |
to northwest Bulgaria, to the city of Vidin, | :19:09. | :19:17. | |
a region of high One man agreed to speak, | :19:18. | :19:19. | |
but only on the phone. We have no way of verifying his | :19:20. | :19:27. | |
claims, but he told me there are around seven gangs | :19:28. | :19:30. | |
operating in Bulgaria. Last year, they smuggled | :19:31. | :19:33. | |
more than 60,000 people, and that he alone made 200,000 euros | :19:34. | :19:36. | |
in just three months. The magnificent Danube River in | :19:37. | :19:42. | |
Vidin points the way up into Europe. Smugglers keep migrants in abandoned | :19:43. | :19:46. | |
buildings, then direct them at night to others waiting | :19:47. | :19:50. | |
on the Serbian side. You won't find any migrants here, | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
the smuggler told me, In the Soviet era, borders | :19:56. | :19:57. | |
like these were kept Nowadays, the watchtowers | :19:58. | :20:04. | |
are abandoned. There are no border police around | :20:05. | :20:09. | |
and it's a perfect place for migrants to just walk | :20:10. | :20:12. | |
across the fields into Serbia. Back in Sofia, officials admit | :20:13. | :20:22. | |
the way out is less policed It will be very difficult to bring | :20:23. | :20:26. | |
the numbers any further down because organised crime over | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
the past several years now has These borders are very | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
long, there are forests, Like other transit routes, Bulgaria | :20:39. | :20:47. | |
has its dangers for migrants. Only the fittest or the | :20:48. | :20:56. | |
luckiest get through. The most vulnerable, | :20:57. | :20:59. | |
those most in need of Six days after he went missing | :21:00. | :21:01. | |
in a mountainous region of northern Japan, seven-year-old | :21:02. | :21:17. | |
Yamato Tanooka has been reunited He was found in an army training | :21:18. | :21:18. | |
base about four kilometres from the roadside in northern Japan | :21:19. | :21:22. | |
where his parents had left him It was a manhunt which involved | :21:23. | :21:25. | |
more than 200 soldiers, Seven-year-old Yamato Tanooka | :21:26. | :21:37. | |
was abandoned by his parents last Saturday in a densely forested area | :21:38. | :21:46. | |
on the northern island of Hokkaido. It was a punishment for throwing | :21:47. | :21:51. | |
stones at people and cars. Nearly a week later, just as many | :21:52. | :21:57. | |
people were starting to give up, He had managed to walk | :21:58. | :22:01. | |
to a military training base, TRANSLATION: One of our soldiers | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
was preparing for drills and unlocked the door | :22:07. | :22:13. | |
of a building, and there he was. When he asked, "Are you | :22:14. | :22:17. | |
Yamato?," the boy said yes. For Yamato's father, it had been | :22:18. | :22:22. | |
an agonising week, worrying about his son while being criticised | :22:23. | :22:26. | |
for what many saw as a punishment TRANSLATION: My excessive behaviour | :22:27. | :22:29. | |
caused such pain to my son. I deeply apologise for the burden | :22:30. | :22:39. | |
caused to the people involved in the search, and | :22:40. | :22:42. | |
the school faculty. With many accusing the parents | :22:43. | :22:47. | |
of neglect or even child abuse, the police may take | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
action against them. But for now, it is a happy ending | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
that not many had expected. The World War Two code | :22:56. | :23:07. | |
breakers of Bletchley Park, just outside London, | :23:08. | :23:10. | |
are rightly famous for But they also broke the Lorenz | :23:11. | :23:11. | |
cypher, known as Today the surviving team members, | :23:12. | :23:15. | |
many in their 90's have reunited -- Today the surviving team members, | :23:16. | :23:25. | |
many in their 90s, have reunited at the National Museum of Computing | :23:26. | :23:28. | |
for a re-enactment of how Hitler and his generals thought | :23:29. | :23:32. | |
their codes were unbreakable. Top secret signals encrypted | :23:33. | :23:34. | |
using Enigma machines were routinely deciphered at Bletchley Park, | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
but there was another German code, even more secret, known as Lorenz, | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
and that too was Today, wartime veterans reassembled | :23:43. | :23:44. | |
at the National Museum of Computing, where, for the first time, | :23:45. | :23:53. | |
all the equipment needed to encrypt and decrypt the signals has | :23:54. | :23:56. | |
been brought together. There is a teleprinter used | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
by the Germans for typing in the original message, | :24:01. | :24:03. | |
picked up for a tenner on eBay. There is a Lorenz cypher machine, | :24:04. | :24:07. | |
on loan from a museum in Norway, with its 12 wheels used | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
for encrypting messages. And there is a reconstruction | :24:12. | :24:14. | |
of the machine they built here, known as a tunny, which mimicked | :24:15. | :24:17. | |
the working of the Lorenz, Much of the work was done by Wrens, | :24:18. | :24:20. | |
who had little idea of the time of the significance | :24:21. | :24:31. | |
of what they were doing. Well, we realise we were working | :24:32. | :24:33. | |
codes, you had to be a fool not to realise, | :24:34. | :24:35. | |
but we weren't told very much. We certainly didn't know | :24:36. | :24:39. | |
we were working Hitler's codes Irene, like these Wrens, | :24:40. | :24:43. | |
worked on Colossus, arguably Colossus machines worked out | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
the Lorenz cypher's machine settings It took weeks by hand, but then | :24:49. | :24:54. | |
there were 1.6 million billion It is fascinating to think that this | :24:55. | :25:00. | |
is the world's first This building links the history | :25:01. | :25:05. | |
of the code breaking work And the pioneers that built | :25:06. | :25:11. | |

Hello. Friday was about a continuation of the themes we have | :26:09. | :26:12. | |
seen played out across the British Isles so far this week in that | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
western areas so the bulk of the sunshine and therefore the highest | :26:17. | :26:19. | |
of the temperatures. It was pretty cloudy yet again across eastern and | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
northern areas. Overnight, certainly England and Wales get | :26:24. | :26:24. |
