Tonight at 10, a humiliating defeat for President Trump | :00:00. | :00:00. | |
as his key election campaign promise collapses. | :00:07. | :00:10. | |
Replacing Obama's healthcare scheme for millions of Americans | :00:11. | :00:13. | |
was top of his list - but he's had to pull it | :00:14. | :00:16. | |
after failing to get enough support from his own party and Democrats. | :00:17. | :00:23. | |
Trump's controversial plans had sparked protests amid fears millions | :00:24. | :00:33. | |
would be left without medical insurance - | :00:34. | :00:34. | |
Today is a great day for our country. | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
What happened on the floor is a victory for the American people | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
We'll be asking how damaging this is to Donald Trump's presidency. | :00:45. | :00:54. | |
Also tonight, police appeal for more information about the Westminster | :00:55. | :00:59. | |
attacker as a former classmate says he is stunned. | :01:00. | :01:01. | |
I was upset to thinking he's turned the way he has, | :01:02. | :01:05. | |
and upset that he would have turned the way he has. | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
The EU won't try to punish Britain over Brexit, | :01:11. | :01:13. | |
says the head of the European Commission. | :01:14. | :01:15. | |
But he warns there will be a bill to pay. | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
As Syria's ancient city of Palmyra is liberated again, | :01:19. | :01:21. | |
more evidence of so-called Islamic State's brutality | :01:22. | :01:23. | |
And coming up in Sportsday on BBC News, | :01:24. | :01:28. | |
Lewis Hamilton dominates practise on the first day | :01:29. | :01:30. | |
of the new Formula One season - fastest in practise in Melbourne | :01:31. | :01:33. | |
President Trump has suffered a major defeat tonight over one | :01:34. | :02:02. | |
of his biggest campaign pledges - his vow to reform America's | :02:03. | :02:05. | |
healthcare system, known as Obamacare. | :02:06. | :02:08. | |
Mr Trump was facing opposition not just from Democrats, | :02:09. | :02:10. | |
The President had staked his personal authority on his scheme, | :02:11. | :02:16. | |
issuing an ultimatum to the Republicans that | :02:17. | :02:18. | |
he'd drop it altogether, if they didn't back him. | :02:19. | :02:20. | |
But tonight, just minutes before the vote, he was forced | :02:21. | :02:23. | |
to abandon his plans dramatically, after being told he didn't | :02:24. | :02:25. | |
Let's join our North America Editor, Jon Sopel, in Washington. | :02:26. | :02:33. | |
Just give us a sense of the scale of the shock? | :02:34. | :02:44. | |
Sophie, Washington doesn't see many days like this. It is hard to | :02:45. | :02:51. | |
overstate the sense of drama, tension and yes, chaos, that | :02:52. | :02:56. | |
reverberated from the White House up Pennsylvania Avenue to Capitol Hill | :02:57. | :02:59. | |
and back down to the White House. Throughout the campaign Donald Trump | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
had said it was his constant refrain, if you elect me as | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
President I will win so much, you the American people will get bored | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
of winning. While at the first legislative hurdle, Donald Trump has | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
fallen flat on his face, and this despite having a huge majority in | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
A day of truly frantic meetings and phone calls, as the vice president, | :03:21. | :03:30. | |
Mike Pence, went to the hilt to try to secure the votes needed to pass | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
health care reform. And the usual tools deployed, a mixture of menace | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
and flattery. But it wasn't going well. My vote is still a no. If | :03:41. | :03:46. | |
anybody tells you for certain they know what is go to happen, they are | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
lying. The situation is still very fluid. If concessions are made to | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
the right of the Republican Party, you lose the moderates, and vice | :03:56. | :03:58. | |
versa. At the White House, there were no attempts to distance | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
themselves from the legislation. The White House spokesman saying Donald | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
Trump had done everything he could. There is no question that the | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
president and the team have left everything in the field. We have | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
called every member with a question and concern, taking into | :04:12. | :04:17. | |
consideration the strength of the bill. There was one definitive | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
statement about how the day would unfold. Later today the house will | :04:22. | :04:27. | |
vote on the American health care act, the current vote is scheduled | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
for 3:30pm. Except it didn't, with journalists prowling every corridor, | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
doubts started to creep in and then the bombshell announcement after the | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
Speaker, Paul Ryan, went to see the president to tell him they didn't | :04:40. | :04:46. | |
have the votes. We came close today but we came up short. I spoke to the | :04:47. | :04:51. | |
president while ago and told him the best thing to do was to pull the | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
bill and he agreed. I will not sugar-coat this. This is a | :04:55. | :04:58. | |
disappointing day. Doing big things is hard. And the president was | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
defiant in defeat. I've been saying for the last year and a half, that | :05:04. | :05:10. | |
the best thing we can do politically speaking is let Obamacare explode. | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
It is exploding right now. But on the campaign trail, Donald Trump | :05:16. | :05:18. | |
said it would be easy. This was his pledge that every rally. Obamacare | :05:19. | :05:24. | |
has to be replaced. We go to get rid of Obamacare, which is a disaster. | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
Repealing and replacing the disaster known as Obamacare. And the author | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
of the art of the deal said only he could deliver it. If you can't make | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
a good deal with a politician, then there is something wrong with you. | :05:42. | :05:49. | |
You're certainly not very good. Protestors were vocal in their | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
opposition to the reform plan, which could have seen 24 million Americans | :05:53. | :06:00. | |
lose their health insurance. West Virginia was solidly behind Donald | :06:01. | :06:06. | |
Trump last November. Johnny, a retired miner, articulate and | :06:07. | :06:09. | |
uncertainty that echoes around the country. I hope they realise what | :06:10. | :06:16. | |
they are actually doing. In effect, they are dealing with life and death | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
situations. Not just me, but for millions of people. At the cabin | :06:22. | :06:28. | |
Creek health Centre, they are watching these proposed changes with | :06:29. | :06:32. | |
alarm. It's the disturbing to think we have made some gains. To take | :06:33. | :06:37. | |
that away is especially difficult. It is disheartening. For patients. | :06:38. | :06:45. | |
Yesterday, Donald Trump clambered on board a giant truck. Today, his | :06:46. | :06:49. | |
political juggernaut came to a grinding halt. Make no mistake, this | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
is a huge embarrassment and setback. Make no mistake, this is a huge | :06:53. | :06:53. | |
embarrassment and setback. President Tom hasn't even been in | :06:54. | :07:00. | |
office for 100 days. How damaging is this? -- President Trump. This is | :07:01. | :07:07. | |
very damaging indeed. Not just because he hasn't got one of his | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
signature policies through. But it could have a knock-on effect. He | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
hasn't been able to do the deal. He couldn't win over recounts drink | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
Republicans in the house. They decided, we are going to say no. | :07:22. | :07:25. | |
What we have in America is a balance of powers between the judiciary, the | :07:26. | :07:31. | |
executive, which is Donald Trump, and the legislature. The legislature | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
has just said no to his plan on health care reform. The judiciary | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
has said no to his travel ban. That leaves Donald Trump looking rather | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
isolated. He wants to do all sorts of measures but he has now got an | :07:45. | :07:49. | |
emboldened Congress that has got the taste for say no to what the | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
president wants. That poses him all sorts of difficulties going forward. | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
It is also humiliating. Donald Trump does not like to lose. He will be | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
smarting from this defeat. One other thing. I think that if Donald Trump | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
didn't know before that it's very different being the CEO of a major | :08:08. | :08:11. | |
company and being the president of the United States of America, he | :08:12. | :08:15. | |
does now. Jon Sopel in Washington, thank you. | :08:16. | :08:16. | |
Here, counter-terrorism police are trying to establish | :08:17. | :08:20. | |
whether the man who launched the attack on Westminster | :08:21. | :08:22. | |
Police have released the first image of the attacker - | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
52-year-old Khalid Masood - who was born in Kent and named | :08:27. | :08:29. | |
Seven people arrested by police have been released. | :08:30. | :08:35. | |
Four suspects are still being questioned. | :08:36. | :08:36. | |
Here's our special correspondent, Lucy Manning. | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
The face that confronted police officers at Parliament. | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
The face that looked out of the car at pedestrians, | :08:46. | :08:48. | |
The 52-year-old was known by a number of names. | :08:49. | :08:53. | |
Born Adrian Elms in Kent, by the time he was a Huntleys | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
Secondary School for Boys in Tunbridge Wells, | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
he was called Adrian Ajao, after his mother got married. | :09:02. | :09:04. | |
School friends remembered him as a sporty pupil, | :09:05. | :09:07. | |
Adrian was a nice lad, a fun guy, always laughing, always joking. | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
But Masood was soon developing a reputation for violence. | :09:13. | :09:26. | |
In the sleepy Sussex village of Northiam, | :09:27. | :09:28. | |
where he lived in his 20s, at the local pub he slashed a man | :09:29. | :09:31. | |
in the face with a knife and was sent to jail. | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
He didn't have a very good reputation, definitely. | :09:36. | :09:37. | |
I remember he was a bit of a troubled character, | :09:38. | :09:39. | |
A family friend said this wasn't the only time | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
Aidy, as he was known in the village, turned violent. | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
I was just sitting at the pool table and I happened to look | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
over and he took umbrage against the landlord | :09:55. | :09:56. | |
for looking at him like he was, and he flew over the bar. | :09:57. | :10:00. | |
Luckily I was really close, because he got a glass, | :10:01. | :10:03. | |
He said he thought he felt affected by racism. | :10:04. | :10:11. | |
He said to me, he said, "To be honest with you, | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
Masood spent time in three prisons, HMP Lewes, Wayland and Ford. | :10:15. | :10:21. | |
He worked as a teacher in Saudi Arabia in 2005 | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
He'd already converted to Islam by them. | :10:24. | :10:30. | |
His mother now lives in a remote farmhouse in Carmarthenshire, | :10:31. | :10:33. | |
They haven't been from what I understand in any sort | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
of contact with their son for well over 20 years, and at the end | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
of the day, when it comes to terrorism, unfortunately nobody | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
can be responsible for the action of their children. | :10:48. | :10:54. | |
Masood, we now know, launched his terror attack | :10:55. | :10:56. | |
after staying overnight at a hotel in Brighton. | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
He seemed happy, staff said, untroubled by | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
That he was about to leave his hotel room to drive to London to kill. | :11:06. | :11:13. | |
He was joking and smiling and friendly. | :11:14. | :11:16. | |
He was a very friendly person when he walked in. | :11:17. | :11:18. | |
The receptionist said, he's a lovely guest, I liked him. | :11:19. | :11:23. | |
She put comments in the system, you know, as a nice guest. | :11:24. | :11:29. | |
There was nothing in his conduct or demeanour that would have made me | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
get a feeling that there's something weird about this guy. | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
And he's just on his way to commit mass murder. | :11:37. | :11:40. | |
Detectives have searched the hotel and there have been more | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
In Manchester, a car was taken away by police | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
in Didsbury and two arrests, described by senior officers | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
as significant, were made there and in the West Midlands. | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
The police are still trying to build a picture of a man who came | :11:59. | :12:02. | |
They say their main aim now is to try and work out | :12:03. | :12:08. | |
if he was acting alone, inspired by terrorist propaganda, | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
or if there are others, still out there who encouraged him, | :12:12. | :12:15. | |
supported, or even directed this attack. | :12:16. | :12:21. | |
But it's clear there are still gaps in the police's knowledge. | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
What we're appealing to today is the public, to say, if, | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
even in hindsight now, you realise something | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
about Khalid Masood, something about his associates, | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
something about his movements and planning, now is the time | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
to come forward and speak to our officers. | :12:38. | :12:38. | |
A bright student, turned violent man, turned terrorist. | :12:39. | :12:41. | |
17 people remain in hospital tonight after the Westminster attacks - | :12:42. | :12:57. | |
six of them are in a critical condition. | :12:58. | :12:59. | |
The fourth victim - who died last night - | :13:00. | :13:01. | |
has been named as 75-year-old Leslie Rhodes from South London. | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
This afternoon, Prince Charles visited some of the injured | :13:05. | :13:06. | |
in hospital and thanked staff for their hard work. | :13:07. | :13:08. | |
Our correspondent Sarah Campbell reports. | :13:09. | :13:11. | |
A royal thank you to the medical teams, who are continuing | :13:12. | :13:14. | |
to deal with the aftermath of Wednesday's attack. | :13:15. | :13:17. | |
17 people remain in hospitals across London, including | :13:18. | :13:20. | |
As many as 50 people were injured and most have now been discharged. | :13:21. | :13:27. | |
Francisco Lopes from Portugal is amongst the first to talk | :13:28. | :13:30. | |
He started to move towards the pedestrian pavement and started | :13:31. | :13:36. | |
to take out the people that were in front of the car. | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
So literally, when I realised this, the car was literally just | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
So I had literally no time to get out of the way. | :13:45. | :13:49. | |
Travis Frain, a student from Lancashire, was asked | :13:50. | :13:52. | |
by the Prince what he remembered of the attack and how | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
The visit was also a chance for staff to reflect | :13:56. | :14:00. | |
on what they themselves have had to deal with. | :14:01. | :14:02. | |
It was inspiring, the way people just worked together | :14:03. | :14:05. | |
and communicated to deal with the patient in front of them. | :14:06. | :14:09. | |
It didn't matter how many would be coming. | :14:10. | :14:11. | |
You knew you would just keep working. | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
In Westminster, as the number of tributes continued to grow, | :14:17. | :14:18. | |
so too did the number of people killed in the attack. | :14:19. | :14:23. | |
Friends and neighbours here in Clapham, south London, | :14:24. | :14:25. | |
are mourning the loss of Leslie Rhodes. | :14:26. | :14:28. | |
He was 75 years old and a retired window cleaner. | :14:29. | :14:35. | |
He would clean the windows without even asking. | :14:36. | :14:37. | |
He would just clean the windows, take the rubbish downstairs. | :14:38. | :14:39. | |
To be there at that precise time and get hit by that maniac, | :14:40. | :14:44. | |
PC Keith Palmer, pictured here with an American tourist | :14:45. | :14:58. | |
in the hour before he was stabbed to death in the line of duty. | :14:59. | :15:02. | |
An online appeal for his family, organised by the Metropolitan Police | :15:03. | :15:05. | |
Federation, has reached more than ?0.5 million - | :15:06. | :15:08. | |
Named today - Police Constable Kris Aves. | :15:09. | :15:14. | |
He's been left with significant injuries | :15:15. | :15:16. | |
He and two other officers were returning from | :15:17. | :15:20. | |
And still unconscious but now in a stable | :15:21. | :15:24. | |
She was thrown into the Thames by the force of the car's impact. | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
A Romanian citizen on holiday with her boyfriend, today, | :15:31. | :15:34. | |
the country's ambassador told me she should have been | :15:35. | :15:37. | |
They were coming to London to celebrate their birthday. | :15:38. | :15:43. | |
He intended to ask her for marriage on the same day. | :15:44. | :15:50. | |
Today, at Westminster Abbey, in a show of solidarity, | :15:51. | :15:57. | |
religious leaders joined together for a minute's silence to remember | :15:58. | :16:00. | |
the four who were killed and the many more who were injured. | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
Our Home Affairs Correspondent, Daniel Sandford, | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
As far as the police investigation goes, a lot of unanswered questions, | :16:12. | :16:25. | |
including crucially, whether he was acting alone. I sensed this | :16:26. | :16:28. | |
investigation is moving into a new phase tonight. The immediate arrests | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
are over. Seven people caught up in that first sweep have now been | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
released. That leaves four people in custody, who detectives are | :16:38. | :16:40. | |
concentrating on as potential accomplices. I'm told more arrests | :16:41. | :16:48. | |
are possible. Now the hard miles of the investigation begins as | :16:49. | :16:50. | |
detectives have to sift through the evidence and try and work out | :16:51. | :16:54. | |
whether Khalid Masood was working alone and I understand they don't | :16:55. | :16:58. | |
know the answer to that question at this stage. They are going to have | :16:59. | :17:01. | |
to sift through a mountain of computer evidence and mobile phone | :17:02. | :17:03. | |
evidence including intriguingly the fact that the lid Masud's mobile | :17:04. | :17:09. | |
phone sent a message to the encrypted messaging up WhatsApp, | :17:10. | :17:14. | |
just two minutes before he crossed that bridge. If that's correct, the | :17:15. | :17:18. | |
key question is who did he send that message to? Detectives are hoping | :17:19. | :17:22. | |
that buried in that mountain of evidence that they've seized of | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
computer and mobile phone evidence, is the answer to that critical | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
question will stop you, if anybody, helped Khalid Masood to kill four | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
people and wreak havoc and terror here in the heart of Westminster? | :17:36. | :17:37. | |
Daniel Sandford, thank you. The European Union won't | :17:38. | :17:40. | |
try to punish Britain That's according to | :17:41. | :17:42. | |
Jean-Claude Juncker, President of the European | :17:43. | :17:45. | |
Commission. But Mr Juncker insisted that the UK | :17:46. | :17:46. | |
would have to honour its "financial commitments" as part of any deal - | :17:47. | :17:49. | |
a figure that he said He was speaking to our Europe editor | :17:50. | :17:51. | |
Katya Adler, ahead of celebrations marking the EU's 60th birthday | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
celebrations in Rome. Kicking out the red carpet | :17:57. | :18:02. | |
for the leaders of the EU, coming to Rome for the club's 60th | :18:03. | :18:05. | |
anniversary. The timing of this birthday bash | :18:06. | :18:09. | |
is awkward, just as one of the EU's most influential members, | :18:10. | :18:12. | |
the UK, prepares to leave. Jean-Claude Juncker is the President | :18:13. | :18:18. | |
of the European Commission, which will be the lead EU negotiator | :18:19. | :18:22. | |
in Brexit talks. In Brussels, just before leaving | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
for Rome, he told me Theresa May On Saturday there | :18:27. | :18:29. | |
will be a celebration. The leaders of 27 member | :18:30. | :18:36. | |
states will be there. That surely is going to be | :18:37. | :18:38. | |
the elephant in the room, isn't it - the fact that Theresa May is not | :18:39. | :18:45. | |
there on Saturday? I'm deeply respecting the British | :18:46. | :18:47. | |
people and the British nation. Brexit or no Brexit, | :18:48. | :18:58. | |
we should not forget that the European continent has | :18:59. | :19:00. | |
a duty when it comes to Britain, because without Churchill | :19:01. | :19:08. | |
and without the resilience of the British people, | :19:09. | :19:10. | |
we wouldn't be where we are now. So I'm everything but in a hostile | :19:11. | :19:13. | |
mood when it comes to Britain. How do you balance that | :19:14. | :19:20. | |
in Brexit negotiations - on the one hand wanting to keep | :19:21. | :19:22. | |
Britain close, but on the other wanting to make sure that others | :19:23. | :19:26. | |
are put off leaving? When it comes to negotiations, | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
we'll negotiate in a friendly way, So what about the around ?50 billion | :19:32. | :19:36. | |
the Commission has demanded Britain pay before it leaves the EU, | :19:37. | :19:45. | |
covering long-term budget There will be no | :19:46. | :19:48. | |
sanctions, no punishment. But Britain has to know, | :19:49. | :19:54. | |
and I suppose the government does know it, they have to honour | :19:55. | :19:58. | |
the commitments, I was mentioning like that years | :19:59. | :20:02. | |
ago, 50 or 60 billions, around that. How will you feel on Wednesday, | :20:03. | :20:16. | |
when that letter of notification, that formal letter of notification | :20:17. | :20:29. | |
arrives in Brussels? As I was sad when the vote in the | :20:30. | :20:32. | |
referendum took place in Britain. Does it feel like a failure, | :20:33. | :20:40. | |
President Juncker? And more sombre words for the EU | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
this evening in the Vatican. Pope Francis welcomed leaders ahead | :20:45. | :20:56. | |
of the 60th anniversary Without new vision, a renewed social | :20:57. | :20:59. | |
conscience, he said, the European Union's | :21:00. | :21:06. | |
days were numbered. A brief look at some of the day's | :21:07. | :21:07. | |
other other news stories. In Belgium, prosecutors have charged | :21:08. | :21:16. | |
a 39-year-old man with attempted murder after a car was driven | :21:17. | :21:19. | |
at high speed towards crowds in Antwerp's shopping | :21:20. | :21:22. | |
district yesterday. No-one was injured. | :21:23. | :21:24. | |
The suspect is a Tunisian man. Police say they also found a gun | :21:25. | :21:27. | |
and knives in the car. The former Egyptian President, | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
Hosni Mubarak, has been released, after six years in detention | :21:32. | :21:34. | |
following his fall from The 88-year-old was being held | :21:35. | :21:37. | |

during the Arab Spring in 2011. Millions of phone and broadband | :21:44. | :21:51. | |

if they suffer poor The plan has been announced | :21:54. | :21:55. | |
by the telecoms regulator, Ofcom. Currently only a small number | :21:56. | :22:00. | |

before the end of the year. The assault on so-called | :22:04. | :22:09. | |
Islamic State is gaining ground, on two fronts - in Iraq, | :22:10. | :22:11. | |
where the attack on Mosul In Northern Syria, government | :22:12. | :22:15. | |
forces, backed by Russian and Iranian allies, have recaptured | :22:16. | :22:20. | |
the ancient city of Palmyra from the extremists | :22:21. | :22:24. | |
for the second time in a year. Our Chief International | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
Correspondent, Lyse Doucet, has travelled to Palmyra | :22:29. | :22:30. | |
and its historic ruins, Roman ruins, precious | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
world heritage. IS occupied this site twice | :22:34. | :22:41. | |
in the past two years. Their last target, | :22:42. | :22:45. | |
the Roman theatre - a stage for grisly executions, | :22:46. | :22:48. | |
slitting throats, shooting IS has lost this prize and ground | :22:49. | :22:52. | |
beyond here to the Syrian military, Palmyra matters, but the battles | :22:53. | :23:02. | |
which lie ahead, including Raqqa - the IS's self-declared capital - | :23:03. | :23:12. | |
matter more, and are And that's because confronting | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
IS in Syria means confronting Are the West and countries in this | :23:17. | :23:22. | |
region now willing to work with President Assad and his Russian | :23:23. | :23:27. | |

building we are shown what's called And the paper trail | :23:32. | :23:40. | |
of its brutal rule. The crimes include leaving Islam, | :23:41. | :23:48. | |
spreading corruption. Two men, called Ahmed, | :23:49. | :24:05. | |
were thrown from the top The city of Palmyra next | :24:06. | :24:07. | |
to the ancient site is a ghost town. People fled IS and the ferocious | :24:08. | :24:18. | |
fighting here, including Syrian This is where some of | :24:19. | :24:21. | |
the displaced have taken refuge. 30 families here, including this | :24:22. | :24:29. | |
woman and her five children. She remembers the exact moment | :24:30. | :24:37. | |
when IS fighters came to her door. TRANSLATION: It was a quarter | :24:38. | :24:43. | |
to five in the morning. I opened the door and saw | :24:44. | :24:48. | |
men shouting at me. They came in and took | :24:49. | :24:50. | |
my husband and niece. I was told they chopped | :24:51. | :24:55. | |
off his head. They took my nephew, | :24:56. | :25:01. | |
who was only 15. She doesn't know how | :25:02. | :25:05. | |
her family will cope. IS no longer occupies their home, | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
but it's dark shadow Welsh hopes of qualifying | :25:11. | :25:17. | |
for the World Cup look increasingly remote following a goalless draw | :25:18. | :25:27. | |
against the Republic of Ireland. The Republic's captain, | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
Seamus Coleman, suffered what appeared to be a serious leg | :25:32. | :25:34. | |
injury after a tackle that led There are different ways to express | :25:35. | :25:49. | |
passion. Legitimately. A match which mattered, certainly. Republic of | :25:50. | :25:52. | |
Ireland and Wales, both imagining a World Cup, like their thrilling | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
euros, both sharing a dull first half. Wales have fallen behind in | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
the qualification table and really needed to win here. And of course | :26:02. | :26:06. | |
they had him. Gareth Bale, in case you hadn't recognised him from the | :26:07. | :26:09. | |
wide shot. These sets of players knew each other well. Joe Allen of | :26:10. | :26:14. | |
Wales, Glenn Whelan of Ireland, team-mates at Stoke City. Contained | :26:15. | :26:19. | |
here are just about. Gareth Bale had already been booked in the second | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
half, when Neil Taylor of Wales made this challenge. Red card, instant | :26:24. | :26:26. | |
reaction from the referee. After lengthy treatment to his right leg, | :26:27. | :26:31. | |
Seamus Coleman was carried off. Gareth Bale will be suspended for | :26:32. | :26:36. | |
Wales' next game and however near his late miss here, Wales have | :26:37. | :26:40. | |
stalled. Republic of Ireland better placed but hard to think of anything | :26:41. | :26:43. | |
but an injury on the goalless final whistle. Joe Wilson, BBC News. | :26:44. | :26:48. | |
