This is BBC World News Today, reporting from Washington. | :00:08. | :00:09. | |
The headlines: A day of firsts and lasts | :00:10. | :00:12. | |
The leaders of Canada and the UK make their debut speeches, | :00:13. | :00:19. | |
while President Obama and Ban Ki-moon make their last, | :00:20. | :00:21. | |
and the Secretary General didn't hold back when it came to Syria. | :00:22. | :00:25. | |
Many groups have killed many innocents, but none more so than the | :00:26. | :00:28. | |
I'm Lyse Doucet at the United Nations in New York, | :00:29. | :00:37. | |
where Britain's Theresa May is due to speak within the next hour. | :00:38. | :00:46. | |
In Europe, unrest at a migrant camp on a Greek island leads to nine | :00:47. | :00:49. | |
people being detained and 4,000 evacuated. | :00:50. | :00:54. | |
Hardly the Hollywood ending for this box office couple - | :00:55. | :00:57. | |
We begin at the United Nations, where intense efforts are underway | :00:58. | :01:22. | |
to try to salvage what is left of the ceasefire in Syria. | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
Aid convoys have been suspended after an attack on 31 lorries | :01:26. | :01:27. | |
Both Russia and Syria have insisted they weren't responsible. | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
Our Correspondent James Robbins is at the UN in New York. | :01:32. | :01:33. | |
You may find some of the images in his report distressing. | :01:34. | :01:40. | |
Aid for Syria's most desperate attacked and destroyed. | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
Aid workers and truck drivers killed. | :01:48. | :01:53. | |
If the ceasefire wasn't already dead, it's hard | :01:54. | :01:55. | |
Vital UN supplies for 78,000 people deliberately targeted. | :01:56. | :01:58. | |
Witnesses say it was an attack from the air. | :01:59. | :02:05. | |
This is a house full of Syrian Christians. | :02:06. | :02:07. | |
This is where more than 20 trucks, 20 vehicles full of food. | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
With flour, medicine, Pampers and blankets. | :02:11. | :02:20. | |
This is full of blankets from the refugee agency. | :02:21. | :02:32. | |
The United Nations is outraged, ordering the suspension of all | :02:33. | :02:34. | |
convoys to protect aid workers, pointing out that only Syrian | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
government forces and their Russian backers had the means and motive | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
to destroy humanitarian aid for civilians in rebel held areas. | :02:43. | :02:44. | |
But Moscow and Damascus deny any involvement, | :02:45. | :02:46. | |
hinting the fires here mysteriously started as opposition forces | :02:47. | :02:48. | |
It is sickening, it's disgusting and if it is proven to be | :02:49. | :02:58. | |
deliberate, it would amount to a war crime. | :02:59. | :03:02. | |
Our hearts go out to those who lost lives. | :03:03. | :03:04. | |
They were selfless people bravely trying to get aid to | :03:05. | :03:06. | |
people who so desperately needed it in Aleppo. | :03:07. | :03:10. | |
There are many injured and the warehouses | :03:11. | :03:12. | |
The ceasefire looks completely finished. | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
Syrian forces declared it so resuming the bombardment of Aleppo. | :03:18. | :03:21. | |
But all sides have breached the ceasefire. | :03:22. | :03:23. | |
The Russians stress that the accidental US | :03:24. | :03:25. | |
bombing of Syrian troops played its part too. | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
Seen from the perspective of the United Nations | :03:30. | :03:31. | |
here in New York, dedicated to peace, any sort of ceasefire, | :03:32. | :03:34. | |
however fragile, must be better than all out war. | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
But to fighters on the ground, it can look very different. | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
The rebel side fear that resettlement could strip them | :03:42. | :03:43. | |
President Assad and his Russian backers still believe that they can | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
Still, the United States hope to salvage something. | :03:49. | :03:54. | |
But watch John Kerry and the UN Syria envoy, | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
and look at today's cold distance between them | :03:58. | :04:00. | |
and Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. | :04:01. | :04:03. | |
In this diplomatic turmoil, the UN Secretary-General | :04:04. | :04:05. | |
was unusually blunt, using his final speech to accuse | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
Syria's government of the greatest war crimes of a very dirty war. | :04:09. | :04:14. | |
Many groups have killed many innocents. | :04:15. | :04:17. | |
None more so than the government of Syria. | :04:18. | :04:26. | |
The destruction of the aid convoy, the killing of aid workers, | :04:27. | :04:28. | |
whoever was responsible, symbolises a war in Syria that | :04:29. | :04:30. | |
Our Chief International Correspondent, Lyse Doucet, | :04:31. | :04:41. | |
The refugee crisis was a key focal point of the talks today. Yes, if | :04:42. | :04:59. | |
this Syrian war is unstoppable, then the flow of Syrians fleeing for | :05:00. | :05:04. | |
their lives in Syria will also be unstoppable into Europe. They have | :05:05. | :05:08. | |
seen that with more than a million crossing the Mediterranean last year | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
and hundreds of thousands Crossing this year. President Barack Obama | :05:14. | :05:16. | |
has always said that although America is an ocean away, they want | :05:17. | :05:21. | |
to play the role. In about an hour, his leaders Summit on refugee will | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
begin. The Canadian Prime Minister and other leaders will be involved | :05:26. | :05:29. | |
and we expect to hear your notes once. And Richard is the assistant | :05:30. | :05:36. | |
Secretary for population, refugees and immigration. Have very imported | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
meeting today. What are we expecting to hear in terms of new commitments, | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
if there are any? Governments can only attend if they commit to do | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
more of this year. Anything they have committed over the course of | :05:51. | :05:55. | |
2016 points towards an invitation to the summit, but there is no free | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
ticket to get in. You will be hearing from 49 governments today. | :06:00. | :06:06. | |
The Secretary General of the UN and the president of the World Bank | :06:07. | :06:10. | |
talking about what additional things they will do. We will also be | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
hearing commitments from non-governmental organisations. $1.5 | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
billion in the next few years towards helping refugees. Around the | :06:21. | :06:27. | |
world. The private sector will be stepping forward today also, but the | :06:28. | :06:31. | |
book is this afternoon is on the governments and it will be a | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
combination of governments that can give money and take refugees for | :06:35. | :06:40. | |
resettlement, and some governments that are posted refugees for years | :06:41. | :06:43. | |
agreeing to adopt policies to get more kids in school, to allow | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
refugees to work and also to give refugees are firmer legal staters. | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
That is about the global refugee crisis. Will this Syrian refugee | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
crisis occupy an important place? Much of what is being committed | :06:59. | :07:04. | |
today got its start in February at an important conference that the | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
British, the Germans and others hosted in London in order to do more | :07:09. | :07:15. | |
for Syria. Anything pledged the points towards today as well. What | :07:16. | :07:19. | |
we have tried to do in the intervening months is raise | :07:20. | :07:23. | |
awareness of how this global crisis affects other countries and hide | :07:24. | :07:26. | |
these other countries also need help. Charity begins at home. The | :07:27. | :07:32. | |
United States has taken over 20,000 refugees. Some in America say you | :07:33. | :07:39. | |
could take up to 100,000. The goals for this year were 85,000 refugees | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
from around the world, 10,000 Syrians. We will probably have | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
bought 13,000 Syrians in by the end of the next couple of weeks and we | :07:50. | :07:54. | |
will be on target to bring 85,000 refugees. In the past few weeks we | :07:55. | :07:57. | |
have announced that we want to bring even more next year, a is the new | :07:58. | :08:05. | |
target, which is quite an increase of 70,000 over the last few years. | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
Well, we will wait to hear what happens. Thank you very much for | :08:10. | :08:15. | |
joining us. Refugees are on the agenda today in one of the issues is | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
that Canada is here saying that it has a model that works on getting | :08:20. | :08:23. | |
individual citizens to group together to sponsor refugees. A | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
private engagement when match with a government policy can make a lot of | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
difference. We have been to Toronto to see how that model works in | :08:33. | :08:33. | |
practice. After just nine months | :08:34. | :08:38. | |
in Canada, Remus and Aya Like thousands of Syrians, | :08:39. | :08:42. | |
this family is sponsored They clubbed together to respond | :08:43. | :08:51. | |
to Syria's refugee crisis. So what other question | :08:52. | :09:01. | |
word do you use? Her husband, Andrew, | :09:02. | :09:03. | |
an art dealer, helps three generations of the Abdullah | :09:04. | :09:05. | |
family with their English. It is the best way to integrate | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
newcomers into the country, to get them connected with the city, | :09:08. | :09:16. | |
all the things that are available, and to create that warm | :09:17. | :09:19. | |
arrival that sets the tone for the rest of their lives in | :09:20. | :09:22. | |
Canada. Syrian music at | :09:23. | :09:29. | |
a picnic in the park. And a warm welcome from more | :09:30. | :09:34. | |
of the family's Canadian sponsors. The group raised enough money | :09:35. | :09:40. | |
to support the Abdullahs for a year. Everyone at this gathering | :09:41. | :09:50. | |
is doing something similar. You do hear critical voices, but, | :09:51. | :09:52. | |
for now, the public mood It is so striking just | :09:53. | :09:54. | |
how different the mood is here compared to much of Europe, | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
but then much about Every Syrian family here | :10:01. | :10:10. | |
was carefully vetted and welcomed by Canadian families and there have | :10:11. | :10:13. | |
not been the kind of attacks here which have created | :10:14. | :10:16. | |
such fear across Europe. But, still, when you see this, | :10:17. | :10:18. | |
you have to ask - could this kind of model be | :10:19. | :10:21. | |
adopted somewhere else? She told me in her dreams | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
she would go back to her old house and see the ghosts of her friend - | :10:24. | :10:55. | |
see people with their heads cut off. Every night I feel like tomorrow | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
I will go play, tomorrow I forget the nightmares and now | :11:00. | :11:09. | |
everything is happy. Canada's Prime Minister wins | :11:10. | :11:20. | |
applause for his refugee policy. London Mayor Sadiq Khan | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
is the latest to come calling. Does Canada's response | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
to the refugee crisis have any We know that differences | :11:30. | :11:31. | |
are a source of strength and that is something that we have | :11:32. | :11:36. | |
to continue to demonstrate. It means better jobs, | :11:37. | :11:38. | |
better outcomes for our These Syrians already | :11:39. | :11:40. | |
feel they belong here. This vast country has long made | :11:41. | :11:52. | |
space for new citizens, but like many other places, | :11:53. | :11:55. | |
it's asking how many more How long will this warm welcome | :11:56. | :11:57. | |
last? So, there is a different example of | :11:58. | :12:20. | |
how refugees are being welcomed in Canada. The situation in Canada is | :12:21. | :12:26. | |
different. They are an ocean away from the Mediterranean and the | :12:27. | :12:29. | |
Canadian government has been screening refugees in the camps in | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
Jordan and Lebanon and making sure there is no possibility of the kind | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
of attacks that we have seen in Europe and has caused such fear and | :12:39. | :12:42. | |
poison the atmosphere when it comes to refugees. It is an interesting | :12:43. | :12:46. | |
model. Britain has also introduced what they call a community | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
sponsorship model drew the Church of England. We were told by the | :12:53. | :12:59. | |
Canadians, the Canadian Ministry of refugees, have told us that 12 | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
countries have shown interest so we will see Fx gain some traction and | :13:04. | :13:06. | |
it will be part of the discussions that will take place just behind us | :13:07. | :13:11. | |
at the UN headquarters when this leaders summit, people getting | :13:12. | :13:21. | |
together to try to work out what to do of this humanitarian crisis of | :13:22. | :13:25. | |
our time, refugees are such a part of it. Not just Syrians of course, | :13:26. | :13:29. | |
but they make up such a large number. A remarkable reunion there. | :13:30. | :13:33. | |
Well, one of the pressure points in this crisis | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
is the Greek island of Lesbos, a place where many migrants | :13:38. | :13:39. | |
The situation there right now is tense. | :13:40. | :13:42. | |
Nine migrants were arrested when a fire broke out | :13:43. | :13:44. | |
More than 4,000 people had to be evacuated from the Moira camp. | :13:45. | :13:55. | |
The Greek government says it is sending a ship to provide | :13:56. | :13:58. | |
temporary accommodation and additional riot police | :13:59. | :13:59. | |
Our correspondent Mark Lowen is on Lesbos and has this report. | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
The fire broke out in the centre of the Moira migrant camp. | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
You can still see some of the blackened trees | :14:08. | :14:09. | |
But a lot of the damage has already been cleared up. | :14:10. | :14:13. | |
Refugees and residents have returned here already but some talk | :14:14. | :14:15. | |
about how their document and personal possessions | :14:16. | :14:17. | |
They say that there was fighting here on Monday, it was Monday night, | :14:18. | :14:22. | |
and different communities blame each other. | :14:23. | :14:29. | |
What it comes down to really is the combination | :14:30. | :14:31. | |
By many people who have been stuck here. | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
Some of their applications for asylum have taken months to process. | :14:36. | :14:37. | |
They feel cooped up here and without any prospect at all. | :14:38. | :14:40. | |
They say they are lacking support from the Greek government | :14:41. | :14:42. | |
as they are held here in no man's land. | :14:43. | :14:45. | |
There is anger in some communities here on the island of Lesbos. | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
There is frustration that the migrant crisis | :14:50. | :14:51. | |
Some far right groups are exploiting the situation | :14:52. | :14:54. | |
The fear is as the doors to the Balkans remain closed | :14:55. | :15:05. | |
and resettling migrants in Turkey appears to have collapsed | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
but new arrivals in Lesbos and other Greek islands as well | :15:09. | :15:10. | |
The European migrant crisis shows no sign of going away. | :15:11. | :15:19. | |
The father of Ahmad Khan Rahami, the suspect in the New York | :15:20. | :15:23. | |
and New Jersey bombings, reportedly told police his son | :15:24. | :15:26. | |
The New York Times says Mohammed Rahami contacted the FBI | :15:27. | :15:33. | |
after his son was involved in a violent domestic dispute. | :15:34. | :15:36. | |
The FBI looked into the matter, but Mr Rahami later | :15:37. | :15:38. | |
A court in Finland has found five members of Cuba's national | :15:39. | :15:45. | |
volleyball team guilty of aggravated rape. | :15:46. | :15:47. | |
The men were given prison sentences of up to five years. | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
A sixth member of the team was acquitted. | :15:53. | :15:55. | |
The crime took place at a hotel during a World Volleyball | :15:56. | :15:57. | |
A French parliamentary inquiry has recommended installing security | :15:58. | :16:06. | |
cameras in all slaughterhouses to prevent cruelty. | :16:07. | :16:08. | |
The panel also called on abattoirs to devise a way of stunning animals | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
before slaughter that would be acceptable to the Muslim | :16:12. | :16:13. | |
The Hollywood power couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are set | :16:14. | :16:26. | |
to divorce with her lawyer saying that she initiated the action. | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
Reports from here in the US say Jolie filed | :16:31. | :16:33. | |
the divorce papers on Monday, citing irreconcilable differences. | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
They've been together for 12 years, and have six children. | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
In a town full of golden couples, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt shone | :16:41. | :16:49. | |
Beautiful, superstar actors, epitomising the Hollywood dream. | :16:50. | :16:53. | |
Her lawyer has released a statement saying the divorce was made | :16:54. | :16:55. | |
They were the biggest couple in celebrity. | :16:56. | :17:04. | |
They were just huge, on a whole different scale | :17:05. | :17:06. | |
Of course, because of the divorce, it's going to get bigger. | :17:07. | :17:13. | |
Last year the two played a couple whose relationship was on the rocks. | :17:14. | :17:19. | |
I think it's a reality of marriage that you go through hard times. | :17:20. | :17:22. | |
And, that you have to embrace those hard times and those challenges | :17:23. | :17:28. | |
and know that's a part of your marriage and it's | :17:29. | :17:31. | |
the pulling through together that actually makes the bond. | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
They were together for 10 years, married for two | :17:36. | :17:37. | |
Three of whom were adopted from Cambodia, Vietnam and Ethiopia. | :17:38. | :17:46. | |
As a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations, | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
Angelina became an outspoken voice for the downtrodden, | :17:50. | :17:51. | |
campaigning to help refugees and promoting Breast Cancer | :17:52. | :17:53. | |
In a town obsessed with celebrity this is big, big news, | :17:54. | :18:01. | |
it's not just here, around the world millions of people are | :18:02. | :18:03. | |
discussing this divorce, but why the fascination? | :18:04. | :18:14. | |
I find Angelina very, very gorgeous and Brad Pitt, as well. | :18:15. | :18:16. | |
I'm sure they have their own reasons why they're doing this. | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
People look at them and think - they have everything. | :18:22. | :18:23. | |
They have looks, money, they have love, they have everything, right? | :18:24. | :18:30. | |
I have seen a few celebrities in Hollywood, they are normal | :18:31. | :18:33. | |
people, they are like us, they go through their own | :18:34. | :18:35. | |
People should be more concerned about their own lives. | :18:36. | :18:42. | |
In Hollywood, the rumours swirl as rumours do. | :18:43. | :18:44. | |
Claims of an affair, substance abuse, fights about the children, | :18:45. | :18:46. | |
but only two people really know what Brangelina are no more. | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
but only two people really know why Brangelina are no more. | :18:53. | :18:55. | |
In case you're counting, there are now less than 50 days | :18:56. | :19:01. | |
Most of the focus so far has been on Hillary Clinton | :19:02. | :19:06. | |
and Donald Trump - two candidates who have divided | :19:07. | :19:08. | |
But of course it's not just about personalities, but issues. | :19:09. | :19:15. | |
All this week a BBC team is taking a train ride across several US | :19:16. | :19:18. | |
states to listen to people's concerns. | :19:19. | :19:22. | |
After stopping in Minneapolis, our correspondent Aleem Maqbool | :19:23. | :19:24. | |
That's where he's been speaking to people about abortion, | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
an issue which both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump have very | :19:31. | :19:33. | |
We are here in Fargo to talk about what continues to be | :19:34. | :19:41. | |
an incredibly contentious topic, one where it doesn't just matter | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
who is in the White House, but who they then choose to serve | :19:46. | :19:48. | |
in the Supreme Court to make the laws - | :19:49. | :19:50. | |
Once a week, the day abortions happen, protesters gather | :19:51. | :19:55. | |
outside this clinic - the only abortion clinic | :19:56. | :19:58. | |
This is the civil rights issue of our day because it has to do | :19:59. | :20:08. | |
with the death of innocent human persons that is legal | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
All of the other liberties that we have in life, | :20:12. | :20:16. | |
all of the other things mean nothing to a dead person, do they? | :20:17. | :20:22. | |
Every time one of the patients turned up, the anti-abortion | :20:23. | :20:24. | |
protesters followed and intimidated her, | :20:25. | :20:26. | |
It is hard because by the time they get here their minds | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
are pretty much made up, so it is kind of a last-ditch | :20:33. | :20:35. | |
effort, but if maybe we can even offer them a kind word or a smile | :20:36. | :20:39. | |
Those in the blue vests are volunteers who come out | :20:40. | :20:44. | |
to protect the patients from harassment. | :20:45. | :20:48. | |
The surgery has come at risk of closure from local politicians, | :20:49. | :20:51. | |
but that threat has been averted for now, but when the political risk | :20:52. | :20:55. | |
to abortion clinics recedes locally and nationally, | :20:56. | :20:59. | |
anti-abortionists resort to other measures. | :21:00. | :21:09. | |
The protester activity has really stepped up in the last few years, | :21:10. | :21:12. | |
There is more intimidation, harassment at clinics | :21:13. | :21:15. | |
and so the violence level has pumped up. | :21:16. | :21:17. | |
Some advocates for a woman's right to choose whether | :21:18. | :21:19. | |
they have an abortion, like Tammy, say the levels of | :21:20. | :21:22. | |
provision and the number of clinics now are greatly inadequate. | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
North Dakota only has one clinic and we are located on the far | :21:28. | :21:30. | |
eastern border of North Dakota, but we also serve a tri-state area. | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
We serve North Dakota, parts of South Dakota | :21:34. | :21:35. | |
And those kinds of distances are already stopping | :21:36. | :21:41. | |
some from coming here, but that doesn't mean | :21:42. | :21:43. | |
If a person doesn't want to give birth, they are not going to. | :21:44. | :21:52. | |
I mean, there are the obvious, what they did in the 80s with coat | :21:53. | :21:59. | |
Do you know of others who have had abortions that way, | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
Given the differences between the two candidates, | :22:04. | :22:09. | |
abortion is one of those topics where the choice | :22:10. | :22:11. | |
America makes in November could have a profound impact. | :22:12. | :22:20. | |
You can find out more about Aleem's train trip | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
across the Northern United States on our website. | :22:24. | :22:25. | |
Tomorrow, Aleem will be in Montana as the team tries to reach one | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
of America's decreasing number of glaciers. | :22:30. | :22:38. | |
He might be an heir to the British throne, | :22:39. | :22:40. | |
but for now Prince William has a job, working as an air ambulance | :22:41. | :22:43. | |
He's been speaking to the BBC about his role. | :22:44. | :22:49. | |
He said there were some "sad, dark moments", but that he loved | :22:50. | :22:52. | |
Our Royal Correspondent Nicholas Witchell has more. | :22:53. | :22:59. | |
His role is to serve, eventually as King, but for now | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
the role William appears to relish most is the one he chose for himself | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
- piloting a helicopter to for the East Anglian Air | :23:08. | :23:09. | |
That's something that my other job doesn't necessarily do, | :23:10. | :23:16. | |
you're more out there on your own a little bit. | :23:17. | :23:19. | |
When I put my air ambulance hat on, and I come here and I fly, | :23:20. | :23:22. | |
At the end of the day, feel like I've made a difference | :23:23. | :23:28. | |
It's more than a year now since William joined | :23:29. | :23:31. | |
There have been scores of call-outs to accidents and emergencies | :23:32. | :23:35. | |
and to scenes which have often been distressing. | :23:36. | :23:38. | |
There are some very sad, dark moments and, you know, | :23:39. | :23:41. | |
we talk about it a lot, but it's hard. | :23:42. | :23:43. | |
You know, you try not to take it away with you, | :23:44. | :23:46. | |
But for all the sad moments, there's also the satisfaction | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
of working as part of a team which is saving life. | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
The one job that I feel the most proud about, | :23:57. | :23:58. | |
that we made the most difference, was probably a job very early | :23:59. | :24:01. | |
We immediately realised it was a very serious | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
The two occupants of the van, uncle and nephew, and, very sadly, | :24:07. | :24:10. | |
the uncle didn't make it, but the nephew did. | :24:11. | :24:12. | |
I think I like broke every bone in my body, pretty much. | :24:13. | :24:20. | |
My legs were, like, shattered so they put all medal rods down them | :24:21. | :24:24. | |
and then I had to learn to walk again. | :24:25. | :24:31. | |
I'm really grateful for getting me through and it and getting me out | :24:32. | :24:34. | |
Having seen how bad he was and seeing where he is now, | :24:35. | :24:41. | |
that does make you realise that this, and the stuff | :24:42. | :24:44. | |
He is William Wales, the pilot Prince, augmenting | :24:45. | :24:51. | |
his special birthright with the added validity of a job, | :24:52. | :24:53. | |
focused on the challenges and comfortable with | :24:54. | :24:55. | |
When I first got here, it was very polite. | :24:56. | :25:02. | |
It's now got a lot worse as they got to know me and their | :25:03. | :25:06. | |
I've got worse nicknames as I've gone up the ladder. | :25:07. | :25:09. | |
If I wasn't doing this job, what I would be doing? | :25:10. | :25:12. | |
Ban Ki-Moon has blamed the Syrian government for the majority of | :25:13. | :25:24. | |
civilian deaths during the country's five-year civil war. | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
His stinging criticism at the opening of the UN | :25:30. | :25:31. | |
General Assembly came after the UN was forced to suspend aid | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
deliveries, following Monday's air strike on a humanitarian convoy. | :25:35. | :25:38. | |
The Russian Defence Ministry said that neither Russian nor Syrian | :25:39. | :25:41. | |
aircraft were involved, a denial echoed by | :25:42. | :25:42. | |
Next the weather, but for now, from me, Rajini Vaidyanathan, | :25:43. | :26:11. | |
This quiet, benign spell of weather continues, but | :26:12. | :26:12. |
