0:00:21 > 0:00:24Good evening.
0:00:24 > 0:00:32Haiti's ambassador to the UK has told the BBC he believes Oxfam did
0:00:32 > 0:00:36try to cover up details of the use of prostitutes by some of its aid
0:00:36 > 0:00:39workers in the aftermath of the 2010 earthquake.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Oxfam's chief executive admits they could have been more open,
0:00:41 > 0:00:42but insisted there was no cover-up.
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Downing Street says the government is reviewing
0:00:44 > 0:00:45its relationship with the charity.
0:00:45 > 0:00:49Angus Crawford has more details.
0:00:49 > 0:00:54It was an earthquake that devastated Haiti,
0:00:54 > 0:00:59killing more than 200,000 people, affecting millions more.
0:00:59 > 0:01:03Aid agencies from around the world stepped into the chaos.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Oxfam, with more than 70 years' experience, had hundreds
0:01:05 > 0:01:10of staff in the field.
0:01:10 > 0:01:15But an investigation by the Times found that in 2011,
0:01:15 > 0:01:18four staff members were sacked and three others resigned over
0:01:18 > 0:01:19allegations of misconduct, including paying local
0:01:19 > 0:01:23women for sex.
0:01:23 > 0:01:26The NGO says it launched an investigation and kept
0:01:26 > 0:01:30the Charity Commission fully informed, something
0:01:30 > 0:01:32the commission now disputes.
0:01:32 > 0:01:37Oxfam's leadership denies there's been a cover-up.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39Oxfam was actually proactive in going to the British
0:01:39 > 0:01:44public, the Department for International Development,
0:01:44 > 0:01:46and the Charity Commission, to explain that there had been
0:01:46 > 0:01:51serious misconduct and we'd taken action.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53More than £30 million of taxpayers' money is given to Oxfam
0:01:53 > 0:01:55by the government every year.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Today, Downing Street called the allegations truly
0:01:58 > 0:02:04shocking and demanded a full and urgent investigation.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06Today, fresh claims, some of the disgraced staff got jobs
0:02:06 > 0:02:09at other aid agencies because Oxfam failed to warn them
0:02:09 > 0:02:14about the misconduct.
0:02:14 > 0:02:18It is clear it's a cover-up case.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22The fact that those folks were allowed to leave the country
0:02:22 > 0:02:25without any punishment, without even informing the Haitian
0:02:25 > 0:02:27authorities about that.
0:02:27 > 0:02:29It was a cover-up.
0:02:29 > 0:02:35Haiti wants Oxfam to hand over all relevant documents,
0:02:35 > 0:02:37so justice can be served there.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40The behaviour of a few has stained the charity's past reputation
0:02:40 > 0:02:48and now threatens its work in the future.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52An Israeli fighter jet has crashed after coming under fire,
0:02:52 > 0:02:56while attacking Iranian forces in Syria.
0:02:56 > 0:03:00The two-man crew ejected and one is said to be seriously injured.
0:03:00 > 0:03:04The F-16 was part of an air raid on a drone base inside Syria,
0:03:04 > 0:03:07after Israel claimed an Iranian drone entered its airspace.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09The government in Damascus has accused Israel of terrorism,
0:03:09 > 0:03:14and has threatened to retaliate.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18The Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson is in Bangladesh, where he's been
0:03:18 > 0:03:19meeting Rohingya refugees, who have escaped violence
0:03:19 > 0:03:24in neighbouring Myanmar.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26Nearly 700,000 people have been forced to leave their homes,
0:03:26 > 0:03:28after a military crackdown began six months ago.
0:03:28 > 0:03:35Reeta Chakrabarti is travelling with the Foreign Secretary.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Cries of "welcome" to a guest from a people who have been
0:03:37 > 0:03:42kicked out of their home.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44We're going to try and get you back home, guys.
0:03:44 > 0:03:47Boris Johnson came to see and hear himself from the victims of this
0:03:47 > 0:03:51huge man-made disaster.
0:03:51 > 0:03:59He heard story after story of arson, rape and murder.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Committed, say the Rohingya victims, by the military
0:04:01 > 0:04:09and Buddhist mobs in Myanmar.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11I'm very sorry.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14What do you think of what you've heard so far?
0:04:14 > 0:04:16Well, it's overwhelming and obviously these people have seen
0:04:16 > 0:04:18some pretty horrifying things and you're very conscious
0:04:18 > 0:04:21when talking to them, the young people, you don't
0:04:21 > 0:04:24want to trigger terrible memories for them.
0:04:24 > 0:04:28It was very clear with the case of the guy who'd only narrowly
0:04:28 > 0:04:30escaped and who'd almost lost his daughter, who'd
0:04:30 > 0:04:33been beaten, and had to ransom his daughter back.
0:04:33 > 0:04:37He kept breaking down in tears.
0:04:37 > 0:04:45The people that Boris Johnson is meeting here are all in limbo.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Bangladesh doesn't want them here permanently
0:04:47 > 0:04:50but they can't go back to Myanmar without guarantees of safety.
0:04:50 > 0:04:52So what can Britain do to help?
0:04:52 > 0:04:54It's about finding a political solution, finding an answer
0:04:54 > 0:04:57in Myanmar, from Burma, creating the conditions for a safe,
0:04:57 > 0:04:59dignified return for these people.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02That's what they want.
0:05:02 > 0:05:06They do want to go back but they don't feel safe.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08That's the message the Foreign Secretary is taking to Myanmar,
0:05:08 > 0:05:12where he landed tonight.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14He admits a safe return for the Rohingya presently
0:05:14 > 0:05:17looks unrealistic.
0:05:17 > 0:05:25It's a very tough diplomatic battle he has to fight.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28The father of an 11-year-ld schoolgirl who was stabbed
0:05:28 > 0:05:31in Wolverhampton says he's "utterly devastated" by her death.
0:05:31 > 0:05:34Jasmine Forrester's father Simeon, said she "was a shining star
0:05:34 > 0:05:37and a huge part of us".
0:05:37 > 0:05:38Detectives are questioning a 51-year-old relative
0:05:38 > 0:05:43on suspicion of murder.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46Jeremy Corbyn has promised to bring a large number of privatised
0:05:46 > 0:05:49utilities back into public control.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51The Labour leader told a conference in London that the UK
0:05:51 > 0:05:55should be following "a global tide of public ownership."
0:05:55 > 0:06:00We need to put Britain at the forefront of the wave
0:06:00 > 0:06:04of international change, in favour of public,
0:06:04 > 0:06:10democratic ownership and control of our services and utilities.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12From India to Canada, across the world, people are waking
0:06:12 > 0:06:15up to the fact that privatisation has failed and taking back control
0:06:15 > 0:06:20of their public services.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23North Korea's leader Kim Jong-un has invited the South Korean
0:06:23 > 0:06:27president for talks at the "earliest date possible."
0:06:27 > 0:06:33The historic invitation was given by Kim Jong-un's sister,
0:06:33 > 0:06:35who's visiting the South for the Winter Olympics.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38If talks do take place, they'd be the first in more than a decade
0:06:38 > 0:06:39between Korean leaders.
0:06:39 > 0:06:43With all the action from the Winter Olympics
0:06:43 > 0:06:46and the rest of a busy day of sport, let's join Lizzie Greenwood Hughes
0:06:46 > 0:06:51at the BBC Sport Centre.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54There is a huge mess going on at Twickenham in
0:06:54 > 0:06:56There is a huge mess going on at Twickenham in the rugby for the Six
0:06:56 > 0:06:59Nations Championship, England against Wales, England, 12, Wales,
0:06:59 > 0:07:06three, just before half-time.
0:07:06 > 0:07:12Ireland thumping Italy 56-19, Jacob Stockdale scoring two of their eight
0:07:12 > 0:07:17tries in Dublin as Ireland topped the table. Eight tries and the stoop
0:07:17 > 0:07:21where the England teenager helped the defending champions demolish
0:07:21 > 0:07:29Wales 52-0. Scotland playing France later.
0:07:35 > 0:07:39They say there's no place like home and after moving into Wembley at the
0:07:39 > 0:07:41beginning of the season Tottenham seemed to have the place the way
0:07:41 > 0:07:44they like it, unbeaten at the National Stadium since October last
0:07:44 > 0:07:51year. Now time to invite the neighbours around. In front of a
0:07:51 > 0:07:54record-breaking crowd the first 45 minutes were his dismal as the
0:07:54 > 0:07:57weather, Harry Kane with the only chance before the break. Minutes
0:07:57 > 0:08:02into the second half the Premier League 's top goal-scorer rose to
0:08:02 > 0:08:08the occasion to score his seventh goal in seven games against Arsenal.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10Despite the Tottenham dominance they failed to capitalise on their
0:08:10 > 0:08:15chances. Petr Cech appeared at times to single-handedly be keeping the
0:08:15 > 0:08:20visitors in the game. Further agony for Arsenal as Lacazette missed a
0:08:20 > 0:08:25golden opportunity in the final minutes of the game. A crushing blow
0:08:25 > 0:08:30to Arsene Wenger's top four hopes as Spurs go seven points clear of their
0:08:30 > 0:08:36north London rivals.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38The former Republic of Ireland midfielder Liam Miller has
0:08:38 > 0:08:40died at the age of 36.
0:08:40 > 0:08:45He had cancer.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47There was a minute's silence before Celtic's Scottish Cup win over
0:08:47 > 0:08:50Partick Thistle to remember Miller who'd played for Celtic
0:08:50 > 0:08:54as well as Manchester United.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58The Winter Olympics in South Korea are in full flow and it's been
0:08:58 > 0:08:59a mixed day for Team GB.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01The men's snowboarders crashed-out in the slopestyle heats but speed
0:09:01 > 0:09:04skater Elise Christie is safely through to the quarter-finals
0:09:04 > 0:09:05of the 500m short track.
0:09:05 > 0:09:06Our correspondent Andy Swiss reports from Pyonchang.
0:09:09 > 0:09:16She is Britain's biggest medal hope. Christie going to the front.Elise
0:09:16 > 0:09:20Christie was soon showing why, leading her 500 metres heat from
0:09:20 > 0:09:24start to finish, setting a new Olympic record.Christie wins it.
0:09:24 > 0:09:28Some statement of intent. After her disqualification in the last Games,
0:09:28 > 0:09:34what relief.So nervous. I thought maybe I'm not going to do it but it
0:09:34 > 0:09:39was fine. I got to the line, I was excited and I'm glad I got in front
0:09:39 > 0:09:43of everyone again.But British roads in the snowboarding came crashing
0:09:43 > 0:09:50down.Oh, Jamie.Jamie Nicholls and then his team-mate Billy Morgan both

0:10:08 > 0:10:13Christie's hopes for gold are off to the perfect start -- for Team GB
0:10:13 > 0:10:19this was a day of mixed fortunes. Plenty more on the BBC sport website
0:10:19 > 0:10:21including news of another Twenty20 defeat for England's cricketers in
0:10:21 > 0:10:24Australia.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26That's it.
0:10:26 > 0:10:45I'll be back with the late news a little earlier tonight at 2110.
