:00:26. > :00:29.up. Keep watching! But first we're talking about how

:00:30. > :00:33.many of you have had experiences of cyber bullying. The charity

:00:34. > :00:36.Childline say that over the past year the number of young people

:00:37. > :00:40.contacting them with worries of being targeted online has nearly

:00:41. > :00:43.doubled. More than 5,500 kids contacted them last year. They say

:00:44. > :00:53.the increase is partly down to more kids having smartphones and tablets.

:00:54. > :00:58.Children nowadays... If they went to the bedroom, their parents used to

:00:59. > :01:02.know they were safe. That is not the case any more. Now children can be

:01:03. > :01:07.reached 24 hours a day through smartphones, tablets and devices

:01:08. > :01:14.that are not necessarily in the family room.

:01:15. > :01:17.Next, a US military helicopter has crashed on the Norfolk coast. It

:01:18. > :01:20.happened last night when the aircraft was carrying out a low

:01:21. > :01:23.flying training exercise. Emergency services say four people have been

:01:24. > :01:33.killed and an investigation into what caused the crash has begun.

:01:34. > :01:37.Next, peace talks aimed at ending weeks of violence in South Sudan are

:01:38. > :01:39.continuing today. It's one of the world's newest countries, having

:01:40. > :01:43.only been created two years ago. It was hoped its independence from

:01:44. > :01:46.Sudan would bring peace to an area that had endured decades of war. But

:01:47. > :01:49.that's not been the case. Fighting between the government and rebel

:01:50. > :01:52.groups broke out just before Christmas, and there are fears the

:01:53. > :02:02.country could descend into all out civil war.

:02:03. > :02:06.South Sudan gained independence from Sudan in 2011 after a war which

:02:07. > :02:12.lasted decades and killed 1.5 million people. But today the men

:02:13. > :02:16.that fought for their country's independents are now fighting each

:02:17. > :02:24.other. In July, the country's President Putin is -- accused his

:02:25. > :02:29.deputy of trying to seize power. Now the sides are fighting to control

:02:30. > :02:33.the country's oilfield, which are worth a lot of money. The

:02:34. > :02:38.international community fears the world's newest country is on the

:02:39. > :02:42.brink of civil war. This is where the fiercest fighting is taking

:02:43. > :02:50.place. Villages are empty as people flee their homes in the. Estimates

:02:51. > :02:55.are that there are 200,000 displaced people who have moved away from the

:02:56. > :03:00.violence. Probably 60% of those are children. Even before the fighting

:03:01. > :03:04.started, South Sudan had a lot of problems. Although the country has

:03:05. > :03:09.lots of oil, most people are poor. One in three have no access to

:03:10. > :03:13.drinking water. One in every seven children will die before their fifth

:03:14. > :03:18.birthday. However, there is some hope the crisis can be resolved.

:03:19. > :03:24.After weeks of uncertainty, the two sides have begun to face discussions

:03:25. > :03:28.for the first time. There are hopes the talks will provide a peaceful

:03:29. > :03:32.solution soon. In America, there's been no let up

:03:33. > :03:34.in the cold weather. Now all 50 US states are experiencing freezing

:03:35. > :03:38.temperatures, including New York, Georgia, and Tennessee. It was minus

:03:39. > :03:41.17 degrees Celsius in the small town of Hell, in Michigan. Weather

:03:42. > :03:44.experts say they expect things to get better soon with temperatures

:03:45. > :03:47.starting to rise in the coming days, although in Kentucky an escaped

:03:48. > :03:49.prisoner turned himself in to get out of the cold!

:03:50. > :03:53.Sport, and Manchester United suffered their third defeat in a row

:03:54. > :03:58.for the first time in 14 years last night. A Ryan Giggs own goal set

:03:59. > :04:01.them on the way to a 2-1 defeat to Sunderland in the first leg of their

:04:02. > :04:05.Capital One Cup semifinal. Nemanya Vidic had pulled it back to 1-1, but

:04:06. > :04:08.a controversial penalty for Sunderland gave them the win and got

:04:09. > :04:20.United boss David Moyes rather upset. How could the linesman give

:04:21. > :04:24.that from where he was standing? He would have to see through the

:04:25. > :04:28.defender to give the decision. Can't believe it.

:04:29. > :04:31.And he might have won Strictly Come Dancing during his break from the

:04:32. > :04:34.sport, but gymnast Louis Smith's announced he's making a comeback for

:04:35. > :04:38.the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow this summer. The three-time Olympic

:04:39. > :04:42.medallist has decided to put off his retirement in order to compete.
