Hi, I'm Martin and this is Newsround. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:06 | |
This afternoon we'll be talking about some sad news | 0:00:06 | 0:00:09 | |
from the country of Belgium. | 0:00:09 | 0:00:11 | |
We are starting today's programme with news from the country | 0:00:20 | 0:00:23 | |
of Belgium in Europe. | 0:00:23 | 0:00:25 | |
There were attacks in the capital city, Brussels, this morning. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
Ayshah has the story. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:31 | |
People from around the world have been giving their support | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
to the people of Belgium. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
It is after an attack in the city of Brussels this morning. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
Emergency services were there quickly to help anybody affected. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:44 | |
Sadly, at least 30 people have died. | 0:00:44 | 0:00:47 | |
The Prime Minister of Belgium has asked everyone to show | 0:00:47 | 0:00:50 | |
calmness and pull together. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:53 | |
It is not known for sure who was behind the attacks | 0:00:53 | 0:00:57 | |
but the group that calls itself Islamic State has said | 0:00:57 | 0:01:00 | |
that it is responsible. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:02 | |
They carried out the attacks which took place in Paris | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
in France last November. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
Last Saturday, the police in Belgium caught a man that they think | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
was involved in the Paris attacks. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
They are now looking to see if what happened this morning | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
is linked to that arrest. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:18 | |
Now countries around the world have come forward to offer | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
support to Belgium. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:22 | |
We must be together, regardless of nationality | 0:01:22 | 0:01:26 | |
or race or faith. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
British Prime Minister David Cameron has said the UK will do everything | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
we can to help. | 0:01:33 | 0:01:34 | |
We absolutely stand with them at this very difficult time. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:39 | |
And Ayshah joins me on the sofa now. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:42 | |
It's a very sad day for people in Belgium. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:45 | |
What's been put in place to make sure people there, feel safe? | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
There's loads of police and emergency services out | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
on the street, doing all they can, and reassuring people who are there. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:55 | |
For the moment Brussels Airport has been closed until tomorrow | 0:01:55 | 0:01:59 | |
and all public transport has been shut down. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
And people in the areas affected have been going online and marking | 0:02:02 | 0:02:06 | |
themselves as "safe" on social media to let their friends and family | 0:02:06 | 0:02:11 | |
around the world know that they are OK. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |
What should you do if you feel upset by what you've heard? | 0:02:14 | 0:02:17 | |
It's natural to feel sad about what has happened. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
And it's really important to talk to people about how you feel, | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
whether that's your mum, dad or a teacher. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:26 | |
There's also lots of advice on the Newsround website too, | 0:02:26 | 0:02:29 | |
on what to do if anything in the news upsets you. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
And what about if you're worried that something might happen | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
in the UK? | 0:02:35 | 0:02:37 | |
Police say what's happened in Brussels today has not made them | 0:02:37 | 0:02:41 | |
more worried about the situation in the UK, but they're sending out | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
extra officers to keep people safe. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
It's also important to remember that the reason this is in the news | 0:02:47 | 0:02:51 | |
is because it's a very unusual thing to happen. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
These attacks are rare and although it's scary to hear | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
about, it's very unlikely that anything like this would ever happen | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
to you, your family or anyone that you know. | 0:02:59 | 0:03:03 | |
Thanks, Ayshah. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:04 | |
And there's a full guide to what's happened in Brussels online, | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
along with our report about who Islamic State are. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
That's also where you can find our advice on what to do | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
if anything in the news upsets you. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
Next, are you addicted to tech? | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
That's the question the latest Newsround special is asking. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
We set a Year 7 class an epic challenge to find out if technology | 0:03:21 | 0:03:25 | |
is taking over their lives. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
Here's a taster of what to expect. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:29 | |
Could you handle it? | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
We are going to split this class into three different groups. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:42 | |
The first group is going to be able to use technology whenever you want. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:48 | |
The second group will only be allowed to use technology for two | 0:03:48 | 0:03:52 | |
hours a day over the next three days. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:56 | |
The final group won't be able to use any technology whatsoever | 0:03:56 | 0:03:59 | |
for the next three days. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:05 | |
It says here that using tech before bedtime can also affect your sleep. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:12 | |
Mum! | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
I can't join in. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:18 | |
I miss it a lot. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:20 | |
I don't know what to do with myself. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:23 | |
I have not missed them as much as I thought I would. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:29 | |
Maybe we should take a step back from it and go outside. | 0:04:29 | 0:04:37 | |
That Newsround Special - Is Tech Taking Over? | 0:04:37 | 0:04:41 | |
- is on CBBC in just over an hour, so don't miss it. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:46 | |
That's all from me. | 0:04:46 | 0:04:48 | |
Remember, you can keep up to date with all the day's stories online. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
Hayley will be back here in the morning. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 |
