The government of Ecuador has declared a state of emergency in six | :01:00. | :01:23. | |
provinces after the country was hit by its strongest | :01:24. | :01:25. | |
At least 235 people have been killed and more than 1500 injured. | :01:26. | :01:33. | |
The 7.8 magnitude quake struck about a hundred miles | :01:34. | :01:37. | |
north west of the capital Quito - with the epicentre just outside | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
Tonight, rescue teams are still pulling people out of the rubble. | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
From Quito, our correspondent Katy Watson has just | :01:47. | :01:48. | |
In a country used to earthquakes, nobody is ever prepared | :01:49. | :01:57. | |
Rescuers desperately try to free a small child from the rubble. | :01:58. | :02:19. | |
Rescuers tried to free a child from the rubble. She is free. The small | :02:20. | :02:32. | |
coastal town in the north-west of the country was one of the worst | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
hit. Residents slept outside, fearful of more to come will stop | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
rescuers are doing what they can with limited resources. The town | :02:43. | :02:46. | |
mayor called for more help. This woman said the third floor of an | :02:47. | :02:50. | |

The capital Quito was more than 100 miles from the earthquake epicentre | :03:10. | :04:04. | |
but even here supermarket shelves rattled, sending bottles flying. The | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
power in parts of the city was cut, causing people to panic, unsure of | :04:08. | :04:09. | |
what was happening. When the earthquake struck, the president was | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
on business in Italy. He cut short the trip to fly home immediately. | :04:12. | :04:14. | |
This was the worst earthquake to hit in decades. The president called it | :04:15. | :04:16. | |
a national emergency and urged Ecuadorians to stay strong. Some of | :04:17. | :04:19. | |
the poorest parts are hardest hit. People continue to look for loved | :04:20. | :04:20. | |
ones and grief of those who died,. it claims, shows the potential cost | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
to UK households if Britain votes Our Economics Editor Kamal Ahmed has | :04:26. | :04:27. | |
the details joins me now. The government is trying to keep the | :04:28. | :04:34. | |
pressure on to constantly remind the public of this argument it would | :04:35. | :04:36. | |
cost the economy hugely if we left the European Union. Tomorrow I am | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
told there will be a 200 page report written by economists of the | :04:40. | :04:41. | |
Treasury saying the cost households by 2030 will be ?4300, because, the | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
report will claim, the economy will be 6% smaller if we were to leave | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
the EU. Why? Because trade barriers would be thrown up to our biggest | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
trading partners in the EU and investment would fall in Britain, | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
because businesses were moved to the single currency area on the | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
continent. Those that argue we should leave the EU, that it would | :05:05. | :05:10. | |
be good for the economy, say it is more scaremongering by a government | :05:11. | :05:16. | |
panicked by the closeness in the polls in the June 23 referendum and | :05:17. | :05:20. | |
also that the government has been wrong before on its judgment of the | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
value of the EU market. It's already been hit | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
by a recession, a corruption scandal Now Brazil is facing | :05:28. | :05:30. | |
the prospect of its President Brazilian politicians | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
are voting on a bid to impeach Dilma Rousseff, | :05:34. | :05:42. | |
who's accused of tampering with government accounts | :05:43. | :05:44. | |
to hide a growing deficit. Her supporters say the proceedings | :05:45. | :05:46. | |
amount to a coup and there are big Let's join Wyre Davies | :05:47. | :05:49. | |
in the capital Brasilia. The government opponents, the two | :05:50. | :06:02. | |
thirds majority in Congress, to force the impeachment trial. Voted | :06:03. | :06:08. | |
has started. Opponents are cheering or booing as the votes come in on | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
the big screen. Brazil's first female president, who had been | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
looking forward to welcoming the Olympics this summer, may no longer | :06:18. | :06:23. | |
be around to witness the moment. Twice elected President of Brazil, | :06:24. | :06:30. | |
Dilma Rousseff is fighting for her political life, the first woman | :06:31. | :06:33. | |
leader is still a champion to many and supporters came to the capital | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
in her defence. But she is on the verge of being removed from office | :06:39. | :06:45. | |
by a hostile Congress. Dilma Rousseff faces impeachment | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
overcharges she manipulated government accounts to hide the | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
state of the economy. Ironically many congressmen sitting in judgment | :06:53. | :06:56. | |
on the president, including the Speaker, have been accused of more | :06:57. | :07:02. | |
serious crimes of embezzlement and corruption. Government opponents | :07:03. | :07:07. | |
deny this is in effect a constitutional coup to get rid of an | :07:08. | :07:11. | |
unpopular leader. TRANSLATION: She is not on her way out because she is | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
incompetent, says the opposition lawmaker. She is going because she | :07:18. | :07:23. | |
has taken the country over the edge and the economy is in a mess. It has | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
been three days of nonstop debate. Heated arguments in Congress and a | :07:31. | :07:34. | |
deeply divided country. Nothing exemplifies the divisions quite like | :07:35. | :07:38. | |
this barrier built down the middle of the capital. Pro-impeachment | :07:39. | :07:44. | |
supporters on one side and pro-government supporters on the | :07:45. | :07:48. | |
other. Everybody waiting for the results from Congress tonight. You | :07:49. | :07:53. | |
have lived all your life? All of my life. Watching the chaos in Congress | :07:54. | :08:00. | |
from afar, Rinaldo lives in a favela. He is a typical Brazil | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
success story as the economy boomed and were brought out of poverty, but | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
he is worried what could be lost if Dilma Rousseff is forced from power. | :08:11. | :08:14. | |
The minimum salary in Rio got better. It started to show more | :08:15. | :08:22. | |
opportunity for asked, the poor people. Some portray this as a class | :08:23. | :08:32. | |
war, largely white middle-class protesters favouring impeachment. | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
Mixed race working class Brazilians against. In reality many have lost | :08:37. | :08:42. | |
faith with discredited politicians. Dilma Rousseff could be out of | :08:43. | :08:47. | |
office in weeks. She has protested her innocence but tonight faces the | :08:48. | :08:49. | |
humiliation of possible impeachment. Two 14-year-olds have been charged | :08:50. | :08:56. | |
with murder after a woman and her teenage daughter were found | :08:57. | :08:59. | |

in Japan have been told to leave their homes amid fears | :10:34. | :10:41. | |
of further earthquakes - after two that struck | :10:42. | :10:43. | |
in the last three days. More than 40 people have been killed | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
and many more are still missing. Rupert Wingfield Hayes reports | :10:49. | :10:51. | |
from the mountain town of In the mountains outside Kumamoto, | :10:52. | :10:53. | |
the army are frantically digging. They dug all day today | :10:54. | :11:02. | |
and found no one. This was the picturesque mountain | :11:03. | :11:12. | |
village of Minamiaso. Now its main street | :11:13. | :11:15. | |
is lined by the shattered Some houses have been | :11:16. | :11:17. | |
thrown into nearby fields. This building was originally four | :11:18. | :11:29. | |
storeys, so two of them have been What's even more extraordinary | :11:30. | :11:32. | |
is how many cars in the village have been found like this, | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
turned over onto their sides. The earthquake literally picked them | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
up and tossed them over On Friday night, this dormitory | :11:41. | :11:45. | |
in the village collapsed, All day Saturday, rescuers worked | :11:46. | :11:47. | |
furiously to free them. Today, we found this lady | :11:48. | :11:57. | |
salvaging a few belongings. She describes the terror she went | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
through as the building TRANSLATION: I had a head injury | :12:00. | :12:02. | |
and I was completely panicking. I tried to get out of | :12:03. | :12:10. | |
the door but it was stuck. that the first floor | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
has completely gone. Ten people got out of here, two | :12:17. | :12:26. | |
of her classmates did not survive. Across the disaster zone, | :12:27. | :12:29. | |
100,000 people are camped out There is the usual Japanese | :12:30. | :12:31. | |
stoicism. But food, water and space | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
are all in short supply. And still no one knows when it | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
will be safe to go home. Police are investigating reports | :12:43. | :12:54. | |
that a British Airways plane was hit by a drone as it was coming | :12:55. | :12:57. | |
in to land at Heathrow The Civil Aviation Authority says, | :12:58. | :13:00. | |
if confirmed, it would be the first incident | :13:01. | :13:08. | |
of its kind in Britain. Let's get the latest | :13:09. | :13:10. | |
from our correspondent Richard Galpin who's | :13:11. | :13:11. | |
at Heathrow this evening. How much do we know about what | :13:12. | :13:20. | |
happened? What we know is this was a BA flight coming in from Geneva at | :13:21. | :13:25. | |
lunchtime today and had 132 passengers on board. As they came in | :13:26. | :13:31. | |
to land, the pilot reported the front of the aeroplane had been hit | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
by what he believed to be a drone. It did not seem to cause any damage | :13:37. | :13:41. | |
and the plane was able to land safely. The authorities are taking | :13:42. | :13:47. | |
this very seriously. The police have launched an investigation. There | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
have not been any arrests. The worry is a drone hitting an aircraft, for | :13:53. | :13:57. | |
example it could hit the engine and cause engine failure, or smash into | :13:58. | :14:02. | |
the cockpit which would have catastrophic consequences. It is a | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
concern, particularly as so many people have their own drones. The | :14:08. | :14:13. | |
Civil Aviation Authority say it is not acceptable for anyone to fly a | :14:14. | :14:17. | |
drain near an airport and anyone persecuted could face up to five | :14:18. | :14:19. | |
years in prison. Libya's new unity government has | :14:20. | :14:23. | |
warned that so-called Islamic State could take over two thirds | :14:24. | :14:25. | |
of the country. Last year IS established a | :14:26. | :14:42. | |
stronghold in the town of Sirte. The country has been plagued by | :14:43. | :14:44. | |
instability since the fall of Colonel Gaddafi. | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
From Tripoli, our correspondent Orla Guerin sent this report. | :14:51. | :14:52. | |
Is Libya finally moving toward stability? | :14:53. | :14:53. | |
But many here are watching and waiting to see if the competing | :14:54. | :14:57. | |
militias and warring factions can be brought under one roof. | :14:58. | :15:02. | |
A small crowd gathers in Tripoli's Martyrs' | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
Square, welcoming Libya's new unity government. | :15:07. | :15:12. | |
It arrived a few weeks ago, backed by the UN. | :15:13. | :15:18. | |
The problem is there are two governments here | :15:19. | :15:20. | |
And there is another cause for concern. | :15:21. | :15:26. | |
The so-called Islamic State is now altering the equation here. | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
The unity government warns the extremists could take over | :15:32. | :15:34. | |
TRANSLATION: Libya does not have a strong figure who can | :15:35. | :15:41. | |
lead the army or even the militias to fight this enemy. | :15:42. | :15:43. | |
They will spread quickly, especially in the | :15:44. | :15:45. | |
This area is weak and they could occupy it in minutes. | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
If so, they will control two thirds of the | :15:51. | :15:52. | |
When the west started bombing the Libyan leader's compound | :15:53. | :15:58. | |
in Tripoli in 2011, things were not supposed to turn out like this. | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
Britain, and other nations involved, have been accused of not doing | :16:03. | :16:04. | |
Five years after Nato intervened here | :16:05. | :16:11. | |
against Colonel Gaddafi, this country is divided and unstable. | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
And once again it is a growing concern | :16:15. | :16:16. | |
The success or failure of the new unity | :16:17. | :16:25. | |
government has implications not just for Libya, but also for its | :16:26. | :16:28. | |
The scars of war remain here, but many | :16:29. | :16:34. | |
want to look beyond the prism of conflict. | :16:35. | :16:38. | |
We visited Misrata during the revolution, with Gaddafi | :16:39. | :16:42. | |
Abdel Hamid Gherwash refused to leave his home | :16:43. | :16:49. | |
Two of his nephews died for the new Libya. | :16:50. | :16:57. | |
Today, he is still there, ready to forgive their killers and | :16:58. | :17:00. | |
hoping the new government can succeed. | :17:01. | :17:03. | |
Forget all about war, guns, violence, enemies. | :17:04. | :17:10. | |
We have to build up Libya back again. | :17:11. | :17:21. | |
That means the fragile new government must secure streets | :17:22. | :17:23. | |
There is a growing sense that Libya needs help. | :17:24. | :17:29. | |
But some in Britain may be gun shy about getting involved here again. | :17:30. | :17:33. | |

things were not to get easier. That the first corner, chaos, as the two | :19:23. | :19:27. | |

the BBC Sport Centre. One of the biggest Roman | :20:47. | :20:54. | |
villas in Britain has been unearthed in Wiltshire, | :20:55. | :20:57. | |
after a man found an elaborate mosaic while laying electricity | :20:58. | :21:00. | |
cables in his garden. After an eight-day dig, | :21:01. | :21:02. | |
archaeologists say it's one of the best preserved sites | :21:03. | :21:08. | |
they've ever worked on The heart of the Wiltshire | :21:09. | :21:10. | |
countryside and this picture-perfect Today it is a family home | :21:11. | :21:14. | |
and it was while converting a barn into a games room that | :21:15. | :21:20. | |
the truth began to emerge. We swept the mud back | :21:21. | :21:23. | |
from this hard, flat surface and there was this perfect mosaic | :21:24. | :21:30. | |
in brilliant colours. The colours as of | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
the day it was laid. More excavations followed, | :21:34. | :21:35. | |
