You're live with me, Ayshah, this Tuesday morning,

:00:00.:00:00.

we've got loads coming up for you today.

:00:00.:00:09.

Find out who's the best footballer in the world and...

:00:10.:00:12.

an unusual way to get rid of your Christmas tree.

:00:13.:00:23.

First to Syria in the Middle East, and the civil war that's affecting

:00:24.:00:26.

In the town of Madaya, there are reports that people

:00:27.:00:32.

are running out of supplies of food, water and medical equipment.

:00:33.:00:34.

These trucks carrying food and water have finally made it to Madaya.

:00:35.:00:41.

Even though the town is only 25 miles from the capital of Damascus,

:00:42.:00:45.

it's been cut off from the outside world because of fighting.

:00:46.:00:51.

Over the last six months the 40,000 people that live

:00:52.:00:54.

It's also meant no-one has been able to come into the town too.

:00:55.:00:58.

There have been reports that food, water and electricity supplies

:00:59.:01:01.

Syria has been at war for five years and it has torn at the country apart

:01:02.:01:17.

into areas controlled by the government and other areas

:01:18.:01:21.

controlled by opposition groups in a war so intense that all sides are

:01:22.:01:24.

willing to use whatever it takes to gain advantage over their enemy and

:01:25.:01:28.

that has meant even cutting off regular food and water and medical

:01:29.:01:31.

supplies into communities, which has left people, including children,

:01:32.:01:35.

Hungary. What is happening today is that all sides have agreed they will

:01:36.:01:40.

let food and medicine go into some of the areas that so many areas are

:01:41.:01:45.

desperate for any food aid at all. Now that the town of Madiya has got

:01:46.:01:52.

supplies for the next month, it's hoped aid agencies will be able

:01:53.:01:55.

to get more supplies If you want to know more

:01:56.:01:58.

about the problems people face living in Syria you can take a look

:01:59.:02:02.

at the Newsround web site and there's advice there too,

:02:03.:02:05.

if anything in the news upsets you. From eight o'clock this morning some

:02:06.:02:08.

doctors in England won't be going to work in hospitals -

:02:09.:02:10.

instead they'll be on strike. It's because they're

:02:11.:02:13.

unhappy about new plans Many junior doctors are on strike

:02:14.:02:22.

today. That means they are not going to work because they want to protest

:02:23.:02:26.

against the government. Junior doctors are new adopters who are

:02:27.:02:31.

still training and they say the new ways of working plans by the

:02:32.:02:34.

government are unfair and could make things dangerous for patients

:02:35.:02:37.

because stop those will be too tired to do things properly, but the

:02:38.:02:42.

government says the plans are fair and that it means things will

:02:43.:02:45.

improve for people going to hospital, but Italy at the weekend.

:02:46.:02:48.

What will the strike mean for patients? Most hospitals are

:02:49.:02:55.

offering only the kind of service they offer on Christmas Day, which

:02:56.:02:59.

means no planned operations. If you're having your tonsils out, for

:03:00.:03:04.

example, most of those will be cancelled, but they are still

:03:05.:03:09.

accident and emergency surgery. If the two sides cannot agree on a plan

:03:10.:03:13.

there may be more strikes later in the month.

:03:14.:03:19.

The winner of Fifa's Ballon D'Or is none other

:03:20.:03:21.

He beat Cristiano Ronaldo and Brazilian Neymar to pick up

:03:22.:03:27.

the title of the world's best player.

:03:28.:03:28.

United States midfielder Carli Lloyd won the women's award.

:03:29.:03:30.

Archaeologists in Cambridgeshire are very excited as they've

:03:31.:03:32.

uncovered what's thought to be the best preserved bronze age

:03:33.:03:35.

The settlement sank into the mud when a fire took hold

:03:36.:03:38.

It's meant that they can find out lots more about the people

:03:39.:03:42.

We will be looking at the contents of the box, and what garments they

:03:43.:03:58.

were wearing. There is a sense of where they stood inside the

:03:59.:04:03.

structure. We have found fragments of furniture. We know lots about the

:04:04.:04:07.

environment so we can tell you what was going on around them, so I am

:04:08.:04:13.

building a picture from a society 3000 years ago, which feels like it

:04:14.:04:14.

was just yesterday. Christmas is well and truly over,

:04:15.:04:18.

but one town in Germany has found a very unusual way

:04:19.:04:21.

of getting rid of their trees. This competition is in its 14th

:04:22.:04:24.

year. The aim is to throw

:04:25.:04:26.

the trees as far you can. The winner got an impressive

:04:27.:04:29.

distance of 25 metres. It's starlings flying

:04:30.:04:31.

in the skies of southern Israel. It's called a mumuration and they do

:04:32.:04:35.

it to help each other find food The changing shape confuses any

:04:36.:04:39.

would-be attackers and they can even create their own breeze to blow

:04:40.:04:43.

other birds off course. That's all from me for now,

:04:44.:04:48.

Newsround's back right
