Tonight at Ten: A special report
from Yemen, where millions | 0:00:05 | 0:00:08 | |
of lives are now threatened
by famine and fighting. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:15 | |
In the capital, school children
suffer - in endless airstrikes | 0:00:15 | 0:00:17 | |
by the Saudi-led coaliton. | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
And in the vast camps
for the displaced, we see | 0:00:20 | 0:00:22 | |
the consequences of aid
supplies being blocked. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:30 | |
The war here has created so much
misery, with lives disrupted. | 0:00:30 | 0:00:33 | |
And the recent escalation
of the conflict mean that many more | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
people will be relying
on the kindness of strangers, | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
just to survive. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
We'll have the latest
on the UN warnings of | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
a humanitarian catastrophe. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
Also tonight: | 0:00:44 | 0:00:47 | |
A firearms dealer has been found
guilty of supplying guns and bullets | 0:00:47 | 0:00:50 | |
linked to more than a hundred
crimes, including three murders. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:56 | |
The scene in the House of Commons,
as Parliament starts to look | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
in detail at the legislation that
will lead to Brexit. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:03 | |
Six months after his election win,
we ask France's President Macron | 0:01:03 | 0:01:05 | |
for his views on Trump and Putin. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:10 | |
£17 billion - the annual
cost of wasted food, | 0:01:10 | 0:01:12 | |
as campaigners say that it's time
for much tougher measures. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:18 | |
And Denmark have ended the Republic
of Ireland's hopes of reaching | 0:01:18 | 0:01:20 | |
the World Cup finals. | 0:01:20 | 0:01:24 | |
And in the Sport on BBC News: | 0:01:24 | 0:01:27 | |
England continue their World Cup
preparations with a glamour tie | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
against Brazil's Samba Boys at
Wembley. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:33 | |
Good evening. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:55 | |
The United Nations is warning
that the desperate humanitarian | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
crisis in Yemen is worsening,
and that unless aid is allowed in, | 0:01:58 | 0:02:02 | |
millions more lives will be at risk. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
The crisis began in 2015,
when Houthi rebels - | 0:02:05 | 0:02:08 | |
backed by Iran - ousted
the President and took control | 0:02:08 | 0:02:10 | |
of parts of the country. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
A coalition, led by Saudi Arabia,
then began a campaign of airstrikes, | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
to try to restore the government. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
Two years on, extreme hunger
and disease are killing an estimated | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
130 children every day. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:27 | |
The conflict has left 80%
of the country in need | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
of humanitarian aid. | 0:02:29 | 0:02:32 | |
Seven million people are fully
reliant on food aid, | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
much of which is now not able to get
through because of a blockade. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
From Yemen, my colleague, Clive
Myrie, sent this extended report. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
This is a story about war
and its humiliations. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
The stripping of dignity. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
But it's also about
the desert trek to safety. | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
It's a story of survival. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:57 | |
There's panic at a school
in the Yemeni capital, Sana'a. | 0:03:06 | 0:03:08 | |
A city under Houthi rebel control. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
FRENZIED SHOUTING | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
A Saudi-coalition air strike
targeting a nearby building has | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
blown out the school's windows. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:22 | |
In this conflict, death can come
from the air at any time - | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
for kids, as well as soldiers. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:30 | |
What began as a civil war has
become a proxy struggle | 0:03:30 | 0:03:33 | |
between Saudi Arabia,
backing Yemen's government, | 0:03:33 | 0:03:37 | |
and Iran, alleged to be
backing the rebels. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:42 | |
The Houthis claim this is a bomb
from the attack that didn't explode. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
Several countries, including the UK
and America, have sold billions | 0:03:47 | 0:03:50 | |
of pounds' worth of weapons
to Saudi Arabia during this war. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:57 | |
Apart from arms dealers,
this conflict has no | 0:03:57 | 0:04:02 | |
winners, and civilians
are the biggest losers. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:08 | |
Imagine what those displaced
by the war are running from, | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
if this is what they're running to. | 0:04:11 | 0:04:14 | |
Dusty, makeshift desert
settlements across Yemen, | 0:04:14 | 0:04:16 | |
home to three million
people and counting. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:21 | |
But it's a pitiful existence
in a place like this, | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
in the middle of a pitiless war. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:27 | |
Only the most basic shelter protects
from the unrelenting sun | 0:04:27 | 0:04:34 | |
and the sand of the desert. | 0:04:34 | 0:04:35 | |
Yemen, already the Arab
world's poorest nation, | 0:04:35 | 0:04:37 | |
is now on its knees. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:39 | |
An estimated seven million people
are facing starvation. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:42 | |
This is a man-made calamity
that shames the world. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:48 | |
The war here has created
so much misery, with lives | 0:04:48 | 0:04:50 | |
disrupted and destroyed. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:56 | |
And the recent escalation
of the conflict means that many more | 0:04:56 | 0:04:59 | |
people will be relying
on the kindness of | 0:04:59 | 0:05:01 | |
strangers, just to survive. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:06 | |
This woman and little Ayeeshia,
who is seven months old, | 0:05:06 | 0:05:09 | |
fled their home the night
the bombs fell. | 0:05:09 | 0:05:15 | |
TRANSLATION: It was like thunder
and lightning in the sky. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:17 | |
We were scared and took
our children, but left | 0:05:17 | 0:05:20 | |
everything else behind. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
We don't have food. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:23 | |
Our men don't have jobs. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:27 | |
They go to market looking for work,
but when they come back | 0:05:27 | 0:05:30 | |
with nothing, the children cry. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:36 | |
Aden is one of the ports
at the end of an aid pipeline | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
that helps sustain more
than 21 million people here. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:43 | |
That's three quarters
of the population. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
But it's a precarious
humanitarian operation. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:50 | |
Saudi Arabia controls
Yemen's borders. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:56 | |
A blockade has already seriously
affected aid flowing into ports | 0:05:56 | 0:05:58 | |
in rebel-held areas in the North. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:00 | |
And the harbour at Aden,
here in the south, can be shut down | 0:06:00 | 0:06:03 | |
at a moment's notice. | 0:06:03 | 0:06:07 | |
Saudi Arabia says sealing this
country's borders will cut the flow | 0:06:07 | 0:06:10 | |
of weapons to rebel forces,
but aid shipments can be | 0:06:10 | 0:06:12 | |
searched and verified,
so why prevent all goods | 0:06:12 | 0:06:14 | |
coming into Yemen? | 0:06:14 | 0:06:18 | |
Well, using aid as a weapon of war
is nothing new in this conflict. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:24 | |
The Houthi rebels have
themselves been accused | 0:06:24 | 0:06:28 | |
of blocking aid convoys,
so despite warehouses full of food, | 0:06:28 | 0:06:36 | |
millions are at risk of starvation. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:40 | |
Aid workers acknowledge
this is a dirty war, | 0:06:40 | 0:06:42 | |
where both sides have
questions to answer. | 0:06:42 | 0:06:44 | |
They have their own tactics -
to use the aid we are bringing | 0:06:44 | 0:06:47 | |
in to the people, either to prevent
it from people or give it | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
to the people that they favour. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:52 | |
For sure, that is how
they use the aid. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
And if we cannot reach people
to give them this food, | 0:06:54 | 0:06:56 | |
then definitely, they will die. | 0:06:56 | 0:07:02 | |
Civilians in this war
are forgotten people, | 0:07:04 | 0:07:06 | |
pawns in a great game,
victims of a conflict | 0:07:06 | 0:07:09 | |
that they didn't create. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:11 | |
They've done nothing
wrong, their only crime | 0:07:11 | 0:07:13 | |
was being born here. | 0:07:13 | 0:07:18 | |
Clive Myrie, BBC News,
in southern Yemen. | 0:07:18 | 0:07:21 | |
Our chief international
correspondent, Lyse Doucet, | 0:07:25 | 0:07:26 | |
is in the Saudi capital,
Riyadh. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:31 | |
Can we talk about this blockade
imposed by the Saudis and how they | 0:07:31 | 0:07:35 | |
try to justify it? Well, just to
Mako weeks ago, the senior Saudi | 0:07:35 | 0:07:42 | |
officials said they were going to
trying to find a way out of this | 0:07:42 | 0:07:45 | |
crisis that was costing too much and
there was supposed to be a meeting | 0:07:45 | 0:07:48 | |
in London today involving some of
the main actors, including the | 0:07:48 | 0:07:53 | |
United States, to accelerate steps
towards a political solution to this | 0:07:53 | 0:07:56 | |
crisis. That came to an end on
November four when the Houthis fired | 0:07:56 | 0:08:01 | |
a long-range missile from
neighbouring Yemen, intercepted over | 0:08:01 | 0:08:07 | |
the International Airport at Riyadh
and the Saudis said it was | 0:08:07 | 0:08:11 | |
tantamount to a declaration of war
and it had Iranian markings on it. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:16 | |
This is not about Yemen and its
suffering, it is an escalating boxy | 0:08:16 | 0:08:22 | |
war between Iran and Saudi Arabia
and proxy wars across this region, | 0:08:22 | 0:08:26 | |
as always, with them, politics comes
before people. And do you detect any | 0:08:26 | 0:08:33 | |
signs that the Saudi approach may
change? Well, there has been this | 0:08:33 | 0:08:39 | |
huge international outcry which has
put mounting pressure on Saudi | 0:08:39 | 0:08:44 | |
Arabia and its allies to lift this
punishing blockade devastating | 0:08:44 | 0:08:50 | |
people. And yesterday, Saudi
diplomats said they would start to | 0:08:50 | 0:08:54 | |
ease the blockade and open the
ports. But only in areas which are | 0:08:54 | 0:08:58 | |
not controlled by the Houthis,
including the main port on the red | 0:08:58 | 0:09:03 | |
Sea, Aden, a vital lifeline for
United Nations aid which is | 0:09:03 | 0:09:07 | |
desperately needed now. The Saudis
say there has to be a new inspection | 0:09:07 | 0:09:11 | |
system because they see it as the
main entry point for the Houthi arms | 0:09:11 | 0:09:17 | |
and ammunition smuggled from Iran.
The UN said the night there simply | 0:09:17 | 0:09:20 | |
is no time for a new system, the
system has to work, they say, | 0:09:20 | 0:09:25 | |
because every extra day is a day too
March, when millions of Yemenis are | 0:09:25 | 0:09:32 | |
desperately in need. Thank you very
much, from the Saudi capital, | 0:09:32 | 0:09:36 | |
Riyadh. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:39 | |
We'll have another report tomorrow
night on the plight of those | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
without food in Yemen. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:46 | |
And tonight, Clive will be answering | 0:09:46 | 0:09:48 | |
questions you might have -
in an online | 0:09:48 | 0:09:50 | |
question-and-answer session. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:51 | |
That's getting under way now. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:52 | |

A dealer in antique firearms has
been found guilty of supplying guns | 0:09:58 | 0:10:01 | |
and ammunition that have been linked
to more than a hundred crime scenes, | 0:10:01 | 0:10:04 | |
including three murders. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:08 | |
A jury at Birmingham Crown also
convicted Paul Edmunds - | 0:10:08 | 0:10:10 | |
who's 66 and from Gloucestershire -
of smuggling banned handguns | 0:10:10 | 0:10:12 | |
from the US and perverting
the course of justice, | 0:10:12 | 0:10:15 | |
as our correspondent,
Sima Kotecha, reports. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:20 | |
Paul Edmunds - a former antiques
dealer, an expert in guns, | 0:10:20 | 0:10:23 | |
enabling him to make bullets
from his house in Gloucestershire. | 0:10:23 | 0:10:30 | |
Inside, police discovered 100,000
rounds of ammunition | 0:10:30 | 0:10:31 | |
in three separate armouries,
along with almost 200 guns. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:38 | |
Bullets were found scattered
around his bedroom and attic. | 0:10:38 | 0:10:40 | |
Today, following a six-week trial,
Edmunds was found guilty | 0:10:40 | 0:10:42 | |
of supplying guns and home-made
ammunition to gangs | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
across the country. | 0:10:44 | 0:10:49 | |
The 66 year old made bullets
for firearms that were classified | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
as antiques and then sold them
for a hefty profit. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:57 | |
He supplied them to his accomplice,
56-year-old physiotherapist | 0:10:57 | 0:10:59 | |
Mohinder Surdhar, who admitted
selling them on to gangs. | 0:10:59 | 0:11:05 | |
Officers said the two men
were the gun world's equivalent | 0:11:05 | 0:11:07 | |
of the main characters from the TV
show Breaking Bad. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:10 | |
These weapons and ammunition have
appeared at over a hundred | 0:11:10 | 0:11:12 | |
crime scenes in the UK
between 2009 and 2015. | 0:11:12 | 0:11:18 | |
This involved murders
and other serious crime. | 0:11:18 | 0:11:22 | |
He abused his position
and he abused his knowledge | 0:11:22 | 0:11:24 | |
of ammunition and firearms. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:26 | |
Undoubtedly, this operation -
which began in 2014 - | 0:11:26 | 0:11:31 | |
has saved many lives,
as we have been able to stop | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
what was a major supply route
of these firearms and ammunitions | 0:11:34 | 0:11:36 | |
onto the streets. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:39 | |
The pensioner's bullets were found
at the scenes of fatal shootings, | 0:11:39 | 0:11:42 | |
including the murder
of Kenichi Phillips, | 0:11:42 | 0:11:43 | |
in Birmingham last year. | 0:11:43 | 0:11:45 | |
His ammunition was also used
to shoot at a police | 0:11:45 | 0:11:47 | |
helicopter in the 2011 riots. | 0:11:47 | 0:11:53 | |
Ballistic experts were lead
to Edmunds after discovering | 0:11:53 | 0:11:54 | |
ammunition with similar markings. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:58 | |
When the ammunition is constructed,
certain tools are used and these | 0:11:58 | 0:12:02 | |
tools impart markings
onto the modified rounds, | 0:12:02 | 0:12:05 | |
and we start to notice there's
a pattern of tool marks here. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:08 | |
So when we look at lots of different
criminal incidents, we see the same | 0:12:08 | 0:12:11 | |
pattern of tool marks again
and again, and you can start to link | 0:12:11 | 0:12:14 | |
those together forensically,
using the microscope. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
This building contains thousands
of firearms that have been seized | 0:12:16 | 0:12:18 | |
by police from across the country. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
This gun was imported
by Edmunds from America. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:25 | |
Now that he's been convicted,
it too will be stored here. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:31 | |
At the National Ballistics
Intelligence Service, | 0:12:31 | 0:12:35 | |
they're firing one of the antique
revolvers, with the bullets | 0:12:35 | 0:12:37 | |
made by Edmunds. | 0:12:37 | 0:12:38 | |
The gun dealer will be
sentenced next month. | 0:12:38 | 0:12:42 | |

BBC News, Birmingham. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:47 | |
The House of Commons has started
to take a detailed look | 0:12:50 | 0:12:53 | |
at the controversial legislation
designed to take Britain out | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
of the European Union. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:57 | |
The EU Withdrawal Bill will end
the primacy of European law, | 0:12:57 | 0:13:01 | |
but MPs have tabled some 500
amendments, including one | 0:13:01 | 0:13:03 | |
which opposes setting a date in law
for Britain's departure. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:08 | |
As the debate got under way,
deep divisions within Conservative | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
ranks were once again on show. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:13 | |
Our deputy political editor,
John Pienaar, reports on what's | 0:13:13 | 0:13:15 | |
likely to be a very challenging
process for Theresa | 0:13:15 | 0:13:18 | |
May's government. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:19 | |
His report contains
flash photography. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:26 | |
Brexit's still a work in progress. | 0:13:26 | 0:13:29 | |
It's about Westminster
taking back control, | 0:13:29 | 0:13:30 | |
but the planning and scheming is now | 0:13:30 | 0:13:36 | |
intense and, tonight,
it's clear big questions of how - | 0:13:36 | 0:13:41 | |
even when - Britain finally
leaves are up for grabs. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:43 | |
REPORTER: Do you think this
is a meaningless vote? | 0:13:43 | 0:13:45 | |
Brexiteers like Liam Fox
and Boris Johnson are now told | 0:13:45 | 0:13:48 | |
the Brexit deadline of March 2019
will be met by law, | 0:13:48 | 0:13:50 | |
but the Brexit Secretary would love
to know if the way is clear to leave | 0:13:50 | 0:13:54 | |
on schedule. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:56 | |
And tonight, there's
still no knowing. | 0:13:56 | 0:13:57 | |
European Withdrawal Bill. | 0:13:57 | 0:14:02 | |
In the Commons, they've started
weeks of line-by-line debate | 0:14:02 | 0:14:04 | |
on the law to leave. | 0:14:04 | 0:14:05 | |
Tory and Labour MPs saying
a hard Brexit deadline | 0:14:05 | 0:14:07 | |
could cut negotiations short,
even force Britain to | 0:14:07 | 0:14:09 | |
leave without a deal. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:10 | |
Everybody's got more
and more brittle. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:12 | |
More and more unwilling to listen. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:15 | |
More and more persuaded that every
suggestion that's being made | 0:14:15 | 0:14:18 | |
is in some way a form of treason. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
Does he understand how impossible
it is for me to explain | 0:14:20 | 0:14:22 | |
to my constituents that they can
have certainty about nothing | 0:14:22 | 0:14:32 | |
about Brexit as the Government plans
it - except, according to him, | 0:14:33 | 0:14:36 | |
the date when it will happen? | 0:14:36 | 0:14:37 | |
The Labour leadership doesn't
want to appear to obstruct Brexit, | 0:14:37 | 0:14:39 | |
we all know we're leaving,
they say, so why the deadline? | 0:14:39 | 0:14:46 | |
If negotiations go to the wire,
both we and the EU-27 might | 0:14:46 | 0:14:49 | |
recognise the need for an extra
week, an extra day, an extra hour, | 0:14:49 | 0:14:52 | |
even an extra minute. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:56 | |
So the battle lines are drawn,
Brexiteers keen for victory. | 0:14:56 | 0:15:00 | |
Millions of people who died in both
World Wars died for a reason, | 0:15:00 | 0:15:03 | |
it was to do with sustaining
the freedom and democracy | 0:15:03 | 0:15:05 | |
of this House. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:13 | |
And Brexiteer ministers pledging
Brexit with a good deal if possible, | 0:15:13 | 0:15:16 | |
but no deal if they must. | 0:15:16 | 0:15:17 | |
We are going to go through
the process of making sure, | 0:15:17 | 0:15:20 | |
as a responsible government,
that our country is ready to leave | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
the European Union without a deal,
if that proves necessary. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
The Tory's veteran
pro-European let rip. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:29 | |
I am the rebel. | 0:15:29 | 0:15:30 | |
Yes. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:31 | |
I aspouse the policies
that the Conservative Party has | 0:15:31 | 0:15:34 | |
followed for the 50 years
of my membership of it. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:36 | |
And Brexit sceptics loved it. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:37 | |
CHEERING | 0:15:37 | 0:15:41 | |
The ayes to the right, 318. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:44 | |
The noes to the left, 68. | 0:15:44 | 0:15:45 | |
They've been voting tonight
and they'll go on voting, | 0:15:45 | 0:15:47 | |
night after night between
now and Christmas. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:50 | |
On the role of EU judges,
on a period of transition | 0:15:50 | 0:15:53 | |
after Brexit begins,
on other issues too, | 0:15:53 | 0:16:00 | |
but it's the trial of strength over
Theresa May's Brexit deadline | 0:16:00 | 0:16:02 | |
that has MPs guessing
who'll come out on top. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
Earlier today, the Prime Minister
met another Brexit critic, | 0:16:04 | 0:16:06 | |
Scotland's First Minister. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:10 | |
In coming weeks, she may yet see off
the challenges to her Brexit | 0:16:10 | 0:16:14 | |
deadline closer to home. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:15 | |
She'd better, her
authority is at stake. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:16 | |

The headline rate of
inflation, as measured | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
by the Consumer Prices Index,
has remained at 3% | 0:16:22 | 0:16:26 | |
despite widespread expectations
that it would rise. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:29 | |
The cost of food and soft
drinks rose sharply, | 0:16:29 | 0:16:31 | |
but they were offset by falls
in the price of petrol | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
and furniture. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:42 | |
Two people arrested on suspicion
of murdering a teenager, | 0:16:42 | 0:16:44 | |
who's been missing for a week,
have been released | 0:16:44 | 0:16:46 | |
under investigation. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:48 | |
Gaia Pope, who is 19,
was staying in Swanage | 0:16:48 | 0:16:51 | |
when she disappeared last Tuesday. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:52 | |
A 71-year-old woman
and a 19-year-old man | 0:16:52 | 0:16:53 | |
were arrested on Monday. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:57 | |
In Iran, thousands of people
are spending a third | 0:16:57 | 0:16:59 | |
night without shelter,
in freezing conditions, | 0:16:59 | 0:17:01 | |
as the authorities struggle
to help those left homeless | 0:17:01 | 0:17:03 | |
by Sunday's earthquake. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:05 | |
President Hassan Rouhani has visited
the province of Kermanshah, | 0:17:05 | 0:17:09 | |
where some 500 people were killed
and many more injured. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:17 | |
Thousands of buildings collapsed
as our correspondent, | 0:17:17 | 0:17:26 | |
James Robbins, tells us. | 0:17:26 | 0:17:27 | |
Iranian authorities say
they're not expecting | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
to find any more survivors. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:30 | |
Still, rescue dogs are helping
to hunt for signs of life, | 0:17:30 | 0:17:33 | |
but the work now is to clear ruined
homes, demolish and then rebuild. | 0:17:33 | 0:17:38 | |
Local people are in shock. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:42 | |
Thousands are homeless
and in desperate need | 0:17:42 | 0:17:43 | |
of shelter and supplies. | 0:17:43 | 0:17:48 | |
TRANSLATION: After I got up
and the power was cut as well, | 0:17:48 | 0:17:51 | |
I saw the walls and ceiling had come
down and all my stuff | 0:17:51 | 0:17:55 | |
thrown out of the house. | 0:17:55 | 0:17:56 | |
We've got nothing left for us. | 0:17:56 | 0:17:58 | |
TRANSLATION: Suddenly,
the house came down on our heads | 0:17:58 | 0:18:00 | |
in a matter of seconds. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:02 | |
I got out from the back
door of my house. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:05 | |
I saved my child,
but it was difficult. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:08 | |
Field hospitals have
been set up and the aid | 0:18:08 | 0:18:11 | |
effort is gathering pace,
although some locals have complained | 0:18:11 | 0:18:13 | |
the initial response was slow. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:17 | |
Iran's President Hassan Rouhani has
visited the area promising whatever | 0:18:17 | 0:18:19 | |
assistance is needed and criminal
action if any public housing | 0:18:19 | 0:18:21 | |
is found to have been sub-standard. | 0:18:21 | 0:18:28 | |
This was the moment
the earthquake struck on Sunday. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:35 | |
Just across Iran's border in Iraq,
a birthday party for these | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
twins ends in terror. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:45 | |
But this Kurdish family escaped
unharmed, and now the twins have | 0:18:45 | 0:18:51 | |
had their party again,
as the family sent | 0:18:51 | 0:18:55 | |
condolences to all those
who have suffered loss. | 0:18:55 | 0:19:01 | |
And in Iran, at least 70,000
people are now homeless. | 0:19:01 | 0:19:04 | |
They will need much warmer shelter
than this, night-time temperatures | 0:19:04 | 0:19:13 | |
fall close to freezing and yet
going in doors is still terrifying | 0:19:13 | 0:19:16 | |
because around 200 aftershocks have
already been recorded. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:17 | |
The painful process of grieving
and eventual recovery for entire | 0:19:17 | 0:19:20 | |
communities is only just beginning. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:21 | |
James Robbins, BBC News. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:31 | |
Police in California say five
people, including a gunman, are dead | 0:19:35 | 0:19:37 | |
after a series of shootings
at several locations | 0:19:37 | 0:19:39 | |
including a primary school. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:40 | |
At least one child was shot
while pupils were being dropped | 0:19:40 | 0:19:43 | |
off in the morning and
another child was hit, | 0:19:43 | 0:19:45 | |
along with a woman, while they were
travelling in a truck. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:48 | |
Much more should be done
to reduce the quantity | 0:19:48 | 0:19:50 | |
of food wasted every year. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:52 | |
Campaigners say it's a problem that
costs up to £17 billion a year | 0:19:52 | 0:19:55 | |
and many are pointing the finger
of blame at consumers. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:59 | |
But simple steps like better
planning of meals, storing | 0:19:59 | 0:20:02 | |
and freezing food can make a big
difference as our correspondent, | 0:20:02 | 0:20:08 | |
Jeremy Cooke, tells us. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
If you want to stop food
waste, down on the farm | 0:20:10 | 0:20:12 | |
is a good place to start. | 0:20:12 | 0:20:14 | |
These fields are part of a trial
to find new ways to make sure these | 0:20:14 | 0:20:18 | |
potatoes end up on our plates
and not in the bin. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:22 | |
I hate waste because it's costing me
money and so I don't | 0:20:22 | 0:20:25 | |
want to see waste. | 0:20:25 | 0:20:26 | |
So that's why we're striving
all the time to cut out | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
waste in the field. | 0:20:29 | 0:20:30 | |
So Ian, I've got
some VA data here... | 0:20:30 | 0:20:32 | |
Jeff is comparing notes,
sharing hi-tech data with Ian | 0:20:32 | 0:20:34 | |
from the supermarket. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:35 | |
So we're looking good, low waste. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:38 | |
Even before the potatoes
come out of the ground, | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
detailed computer analysis means
they know, for instance, | 0:20:40 | 0:20:42 | |
the yield and so how much
shelf space in store, | 0:20:42 | 0:20:45 | |
how much marketing
to shift any excess. | 0:20:45 | 0:20:52 | |
We're working with technology
to allow that information flow | 0:20:52 | 0:20:54 | |
from what's happening in the field. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:57 | |
So our growers can tell us
what they think they're going to be | 0:20:57 | 0:21:03 | |
producing and then we can match that
to what we want to sell and, | 0:21:03 | 0:21:06 | |
hopefully, take that waste out
of the supply chain. | 0:21:06 | 0:21:08 | |
There are now big efforts throughout
the process to reduce food waste, | 0:21:08 | 0:21:11 | |
whether it be on the farm,
in processing, in storage | 0:21:11 | 0:21:14 | |
or in the supermarkets. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:17 | |
But perhaps the biggest difference
can be made by us consumers | 0:21:17 | 0:21:20 | |
because most of the food that gets
thrown away is from | 0:21:20 | 0:21:22 | |
our own kitchens. | 0:21:22 | 0:21:24 | |
Kate's a self-confessed foodie,
she took part in a scheme to reduce | 0:21:24 | 0:21:27 | |
waste and now puts 20% less food
in the bin. | 0:21:27 | 0:21:29 | |
But how? | 0:21:29 | 0:21:35 | |
Well, Kate measures ingredients
so there's no waste, | 0:21:35 | 0:21:43 | |
keeps the fridge at optimum
temperature, so things stay fresh, | 0:21:43 | 0:21:45 | |
uses DIY vacuum packs in the freezer
for long-term storage. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:51 | |
Ta-da! | 0:21:51 | 0:21:52 | |
And, keeps leftovers for week
day lunch and super. | 0:21:52 | 0:22:02 | |
You save food, you save
money and you save time. | 0:22:02 | 0:22:05 | |
So if you want to do any of those
three things, it's worth it. | 0:22:05 | 0:22:08 | |
And then also, we should feel
a little bit responsible | 0:22:08 | 0:22:11 | |
for the planet as well. | 0:22:11 | 0:22:12 | |
But what happens if you still have
food heading for the bin? | 0:22:12 | 0:22:15 | |
Well, how about a community fridge. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:16 | |
It's a simple idea, food that's
still good is donated instead | 0:22:16 | 0:22:19 | |
of discarded and then it's given
for free to anyone who wants it. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:22 | |
This one is in Swadlincote,
it's one of two already operating, | 0:22:22 | 0:22:24 | |
but the plan is to have 50 up
and running by the end of the year. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:28 | |
Good news for people like Lizzie. | 0:22:28 | 0:22:33 | |
If obviously it's going in the bin
it's wasted, especially for those | 0:22:33 | 0:22:36 | |
that haven't got enough money to go
and get a full food shop. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:39 | |
There are people who are desperately
in need and yet there are other | 0:22:39 | 0:22:42 | |
organisations that are just throwing
food down into skips. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:44 | |
There are people that have come
in here that have talked | 0:22:44 | 0:22:47 | |
about the days when they used
to have to go into the skips | 0:22:47 | 0:22:50 | |
and the amount of the food
they get out of the skip. | 0:22:50 | 0:22:53 | |
Producing food takes hard graft
and major investment, | 0:22:53 | 0:22:55 | |
but it's massively undervalued
and reducing waste will take | 0:22:55 | 0:22:58 | |
a huge shift of attitude
in our throwaway society. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:00 | |
Jeremy Cooke, BBC News. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:10 | |
The President of France,
Emmanuel Macron, has told the BBC | 0:23:14 | 0:23:16 | |
that Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin
are "threatening" Western values | 0:23:16 | 0:23:18 | |
of openness and tolerance. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:22 | |
It is now six months
since Mr Macron took office, | 0:23:22 | 0:23:24 | |
promising to transform French
society, the economy | 0:23:24 | 0:23:26 | |
and even its modern sense
of identity in the world. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:30 | |
Our Paris correspondent,
Lucy Williamson, who travelled | 0:23:30 | 0:23:35 | |
with the President to Abu Dhabi
recently, has sent this report. | 0:23:35 | 0:23:37 | |
Most presidents enjoy
a flash of military uniform | 0:23:37 | 0:23:40 | |
in their schedules, a tang
of old fashioned global power, | 0:23:40 | 0:23:42 | |
but Emmanuel Macron is fighting
his own slippery battle | 0:23:42 | 0:23:45 | |
for French influence abroad. | 0:23:45 | 0:23:48 | |
Jihadi groups in this region have
built a grand narrative | 0:23:48 | 0:23:51 | |
around their vision,
he says, the West needs one | 0:23:51 | 0:23:58 | |
too, based on openness,
tolerance and democracy. | 0:23:58 | 0:24:00 | |
At the opening of a new Louve Museum
in Abu Dhabi, he told me those | 0:24:00 | 0:24:03 | |
values were under threat
from leaders like Vladimir | 0:24:03 | 0:24:05 | |
Putin and Donald Trump. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:09 | |
If you don't defend these values,
it will become harder | 0:24:09 | 0:24:11 | |
and harder, I agree. | 0:24:11 | 0:24:12 | |
But is it harder now,
is it under threat? | 0:24:12 | 0:24:14 | |
I mean for sure it's
a threat, for sure. | 0:24:14 | 0:24:18 | |
But first of all, you have to speak
and discuss with those leaders | 0:24:18 | 0:24:28 | |
because sometimes there's a chance,
they were not like that at the very | 0:24:33 | 0:24:36 | |
beginning, and the explanation
of the divergence is very often due | 0:24:36 | 0:24:38 | |
to their paranoia of the threat
and their willingness to protect | 0:24:38 | 0:24:41 | |
something and to be much more
nervous about what they want | 0:24:41 | 0:24:44 | |
to protect, but forgetting the fact
that part of their own civilisation | 0:24:44 | 0:24:46 | |
is about openness. | 0:24:46 | 0:24:48 | |
If you decide just to push
them back from Europe | 0:24:48 | 0:24:53 | |
If you decide just to push them back
from Europe and all that you see, | 0:24:53 | 0:24:57 | |
you are betraying our values. | 0:24:57 | 0:24:58 | |
It's bad, you lose them. | 0:24:58 | 0:24:59 | |
But does it work? | 0:24:59 | 0:25:00 | |
When you sat down with Mr Trump
and Mr Putin, have you found | 0:25:00 | 0:25:03 | |
that you've been able
to affect real change? | 0:25:03 | 0:25:05 | |
I mean it's not overnight
effect, for sure. | 0:25:05 | 0:25:07 | |
I'm optimistic and I can... | 0:25:07 | 0:25:10 | |
I'm extremely (inaudible). | 0:25:10 | 0:25:11 | |
So I will insist and
insist and insist. | 0:25:11 | 0:25:14 | |
Macron ran his election campaign
by insisting on the power of liberal | 0:25:14 | 0:25:18 | |
values to solve France's problems,
including its most | 0:25:18 | 0:25:19 | |
pressing one - jobs. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:26 | |
This area used to be the centre
of a booming leather industry, | 0:25:26 | 0:25:29 | |
with more than 100 factories. | 0:25:29 | 0:25:30 | |
Serge Cathala's factory is one
of just a dozen left. | 0:25:30 | 0:25:35 | |
Unemployment here is 21%,
twice the national average, | 0:25:35 | 0:25:41 | |
but President Macron's sweeping
reforms means Serge has | 0:25:41 | 0:25:43 | |
begun hiring again. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:45 | |
TRANSLATION: What's great
about Macron is that he's young, | 0:25:45 | 0:25:47 | |
he looks like he's got guts. | 0:25:47 | 0:25:50 | |
Nobody's going to walk all over him,
unlike his predecessors, | 0:25:50 | 0:25:53 | |
and he's got good ideas,
more flexibility for company owners | 0:25:53 | 0:25:55 | |
to hire people and more freedom. | 0:25:55 | 0:25:59 | |
A company needs leaders
who will let them work. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:03 | |
President Macron has already
reformed France's rigid labour law | 0:26:03 | 0:26:12 | |
to curb the power of the unions,
but this area's favourites | 0:26:12 | 0:26:15 | |
for president were the protectionist
candidates on the far-right | 0:26:15 | 0:26:17 | |
and far-left. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:18 | |
And in cafes like this one,
Mr Macron's plans to extend | 0:26:18 | 0:26:21 | |
unemployment insurance have less
impact than say his tax break | 0:26:21 | 0:26:23 | |
for French millionaires. | 0:26:23 | 0:26:24 | |
TRANSLATION: He's the
president of the rich. | 0:26:24 | 0:26:27 | |
He hasn't changed my
life or the lives of | 0:26:27 | 0:26:29 | |
the people in this town. | 0:26:29 | 0:26:33 | |
We are the little people
and I don't know if this man | 0:26:33 | 0:26:36 | |
is going to change things for us. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:38 | |
Here in Paris, six months
ago, Mr Macron vowed | 0:26:38 | 0:26:40 | |
to remake French politics. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:43 | |
Since then, he's been criticised
for being more king than president. | 0:26:43 | 0:26:47 | |
Even some of those who agree
with Mr Macron's analysis have | 0:26:47 | 0:26:50 | |
questioned his style as President. | 0:26:50 | 0:26:55 | |
Were some see clarity,
determination and poise, | 0:26:55 | 0:26:56 | |
others see arrogance,
pomposity and hubris. | 0:26:56 | 0:27:02 | |
Mr Macron has said modesty doesn't
interest him because he's France's | 0:27:02 | 0:27:04 | |
last chance to prove to itself that
openness, tolerance | 0:27:04 | 0:27:06 | |
and democracy work. | 0:27:06 | 0:27:07 | |

Zimbabwe's ambassador
to South Africa has dismissed | 0:27:33 | 0:27:35 | |
talk of a military coup
against the 93-year-old | 0:27:35 | 0:27:37 | |
President Robert Mugabe. | 0:27:37 | 0:27:46 | |
He said the government
in Harare was "intact" | 0:27:46 | 0:27:48 | |
despite the presence of soldiers
and armoured vehicles | 0:27:48 | 0:27:50 | |
on the streets of the capital. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:51 | |
The ruling Zanu-PF Party has accused
the country's senior general | 0:27:51 | 0:27:54 | |
of treasonable conduct. | 0:27:54 | 0:27:55 | |
Tonight's football, and the Republic
of Ireland have missed out | 0:27:55 | 0:27:58 | |
on a place in next summer's
World Cup finals after a defeat | 0:27:58 | 0:28:01 | |
at home to Denmark. | 0:28:01 | 0:28:02 | |
Wales and England have also been
in action in friendlies. | 0:28:02 | 0:28:04 | |
David Ornstein is in Wembley,
we'll speak to him about those | 0:28:04 | 0:28:07 | |
matches in a moment,
but first to Dublin and our sports | 0:28:07 | 0:28:09 | |
correspondent, Joe Wilson. | 0:28:09 | 0:28:10 | |
The Republic of Ireland take their
footballers from the Epping leash | 0:28:10 | 0:28:12 | |
Premier League but from the second
tier Championship. Their resources | 0:28:12 | 0:28:15 | |
are limited. They build their
success on being defensive strong, | 0:28:15 | 0:28:17 | |
resolute. When the game against
Denmark opened up, the home team | 0:28:17 | 0:28:19 | |
fell apart there. Are tough words to
write and to hear. | 0:28:19 | 0:28:25 | |
Mistakes, wrote Dublin's James
Joyce, are portals to discovery. | 0:28:25 | 0:28:27 | |
Well fine, but he never had to play
Denmark on a Tuesday night | 0:28:27 | 0:28:30 | |
with the World Cup at stake. | 0:28:30 | 0:28:32 | |
An error on the pitch could cost
everything, both teams knew. | 0:28:32 | 0:28:36 | |
Five minutes gone, a free kick
for the Republic of Ireland and this | 0:28:36 | 0:28:39 | |
is what a perfect start looks like. | 0:28:39 | 0:28:42 | |
Shane Duffy, the big man
with the big moment. | 0:28:42 | 0:28:44 | |
But the chance came
from a misdirected Danish boot. | 0:28:44 | 0:28:47 | |
That goal seemed so precious,
its value crashed. | 0:28:47 | 0:28:51 | |
The Danes came with skill
to tease the Irish defence, | 0:28:51 | 0:28:57 | |
still Cyrus Christie was defending
the line on that post. | 0:28:57 | 0:28:59 | |
The ball evaded him. | 0:28:59 | 0:29:06 | |
In Christian Eriksen of Tottenham,
Denmark possessed the most | 0:29:06 | 0:29:08 | |
talented man on the pitch. | 0:29:08 | 0:29:10 | |
Far too good to be left in space. | 0:29:10 | 0:29:11 | |
Suddenly, 2-1. | 0:29:11 | 0:29:12 | |
Second half and Eriksen had
the chance to settle it. | 0:29:12 | 0:29:15 | |
Now that was a lovely finish. | 0:29:15 | 0:29:16 | |
Sadly there was still
time for error. | 0:29:16 | 0:29:18 | |
Stephen Ward's defending
set up Eriksen again. | 0:29:18 | 0:29:20 | |
And by the time Bendtner
put away a penalty, | 0:29:20 | 0:29:22 | |
the evening had gone past sad. | 0:29:22 | 0:29:23 | |
Republic of Ireland must join Italy
watching the World Cup. | 0:29:23 | 0:29:27 | |
Joe Wilson, BBC News, Dublin. | 0:29:27 | 0:29:32 | |
England have already qualified for
Russia and tonight, here at Wembley, | 0:29:32 | 0:29:35 | |
they held one of the greatest
football nations, Brazil, to a | 0:29:35 | 0:29:39 | |
goaless draw. Plenty of
encouragement for this young and | 0:29:39 | 0:29:43 | |
inexperienced squad. Over in
Cardiff, Wales were also in friendly | 0:29:43 | 0:29:46 | |
action. They took the lead through
Tom Lawrence against Panama. What a | 0:29:46 | 0:29:51 | |
strike that was. However, it is
wasn't to be for the Welsh. The | 0:29:51 | 0:29:54 | |
Panama, who are themselves going to
the World Cup, equalised with | 0:29:54 | 0:29:58 | |
virtually the last kick of the game.
Huw. David thank you very much. | 0:29:58 | 0:30:02 | |
David Ornstein for us there in
Wembley. | 0:30:02 | 0:30:09 | |
The Olympic champion,
Mo Farah, is now Sir Mo | 0:30:09 | 0:30:11 | |
after receiving his knighthood
from the Queen at | 0:30:11 | 0:30:13 | |
Buckingham Palace today. | 0:30:13 | 0:30:16 | |
Sir Mohamed Farah,
for services to athletics. | 0:30:16 | 0:30:21 | |
Sir Mo came to the UK from Somalia
as a young boy and went on to become | 0:30:21 | 0:30:25 | |
Britain's most decorated athlete. | 0:30:25 | 0:30:28 | |
This summer, he retired
from his track career to concentrate | 0:30:28 | 0:30:30 | |
on running marathons. | 0:30:30 | 0:30:34 | |
He described the knighthood today
as a "dream come true." | 0:30:34 | 0:30:38 | |
Newsnight is coming up on BBC Two,

Something funny is going
on in Zimbabwe right now, | 0:30:40 | 0:30:42 | |
an apparent struggle to succeed
