Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

:00:08.:00:13.

It is an hour of international news live from the BBC newsroom.

:00:14.:00:18.

Triumphant scenes in Pyongyang - but the White House is sceptical.

:00:19.:00:29.

The initial analysis that has been conducted of the events that were

:00:30.:00:35.

reported overnight is not consistent with North Korean claims of a

:00:36.:00:38.

successful hydrogen bomb test. Police in Cologne in Germany say

:00:39.:00:40.

they're investigating whether a series of attacks on women

:00:41.:00:41.

on New Year's Eve were carried out It's added a lot of fuel

:00:42.:00:45.

to the already heated debate Netflix went live today in nearly

:00:46.:00:50.

every country in the world. Good news for its share price -

:00:51.:00:57.

we'll talk about that The vast CES tech show

:00:58.:01:00.

is starting in Las Vegas. Rory Cellan-Jones will run us

:01:01.:01:06.

through the kit that's And in OS Sport we'll hear

:01:07.:01:08.

Dan Roan's interview with Prince Ali If you are online, if you use the

:01:09.:01:28.

hashtag BBCOS we will pick up any comments or questions you would like

:01:29.:01:29.

us to look at. There are clear responses around

:01:30.:01:40.

the world to North Korea's claim One, how can we be sure

:01:41.:01:43.

it actually did this? And two, whichever nuclear bomb

:01:44.:01:47.

was tested, this isn't acceptable. We heard this from the

:01:48.:01:52.

White House earlier. The initial analysis that's been

:01:53.:02:03.

conducted of the events that were reported overnight is not consistent

:02:04.:02:08.

with North Korean claims of a successful hydrogen bomb test.

:02:09.:02:13.

Nothing has occurred in the last 24 hours that has caused the United

:02:14.:02:16.

States government to change our assessment of North Korea's

:02:17.:02:18.

technical and military capabilities. The test was carried out here,

:02:19.:02:20.

it's the same location Google Maps helpfully names it

:02:21.:02:23.

as Nuclear Test Road. I am not sure whether the North

:02:24.:02:41.

Koreans use that particular name. Apparently this is a handwritten

:02:42.:02:51.

note from Kim Jong Un @Make the entire world look up

:02:52.:02:53.

to the powerful nuclear state of North Korea with a stirring

:02:54.:03:05.

explosive sound of a hydrogen Whether it was a hydrogen bomb,

:03:06.:03:16.

certainly there was an explosion and lots of countries were not happy.

:03:17.:03:19.

Well I do have some people who are excited about this to show.

:03:20.:03:22.

They're the people the North Korean government allowed to speak

:03:23.:03:25.

TRANSLATION: Having a hydrogen bomb is the right thing, the legitimate

:03:26.:03:38.

right of any sovereign state, which nobody can complain about. It would

:03:39.:03:42.

be stupid to lay down is when faced with fierce was rushing you.

:03:43.:03:47.

TRANSLATION: I think this hydrogen bomb test is for self defence. It is

:03:48.:03:52.

a reliable way of defending peace and security on the Korean

:03:53.:03:59.

peninsula. And if this is a hydrogen bomb, it

:04:00.:04:05.

would be a major shift. But look at this, it is a measure of the impact

:04:06.:04:11.

of the blast released by US seismologists. It is similar to

:04:12.:04:21.

readings dating back to 2006, which suggests that the bomb is not as big

:04:22.:04:24.

as you would expect from an H-bomb. It has been widely condemned, we

:04:25.:04:28.

have mentioned the United States already, this is what the South

:04:29.:04:30.

Koreans have said. One of the best questions is China,

:04:31.:05:03.

South Korea, America, Russia, India, all the most powerful countries in

:05:04.:05:07.

the world, what can they actually do about this? Aleem Maqbool joins us

:05:08.:05:14.

live from Washington. What options are available? It is the most

:05:15.:05:19.

interesting question. There has been all this bombastic talk from the

:05:20.:05:22.

United Nations, they had an emergency security council meeting

:05:23.:05:27.

today, they said they would come up immediately with measures to ensure

:05:28.:05:32.

that North Korea got the message that this was not something it

:05:33.:05:36.

should have done, and it had threatened world peace, as you said.

:05:37.:05:40.

But we are talking primarily about or economic sanctions. It will be

:05:41.:05:45.

interesting what some countries do, like Russia and particularly China

:05:46.:05:49.

in terms of economic sanctions, that North Korea has faced this, each of

:05:50.:05:53.

the other three times it has carried out nuclear tests. It has faced

:05:54.:05:58.

condemnation, had sanctions imposed, it is one of the most isolated

:05:59.:06:03.

countries in the world. It must have known it would elicit this kind of

:06:04.:06:06.

reaction from the international community and Beijing by its

:06:07.:06:14.

defiance this time. There are those asking whether further economic

:06:15.:06:17.

sanctions will be enough to stop Gunn Yang continuing its development

:06:18.:06:25.

of its nuclear programme -- to stop young young. Economic sanctions do

:06:26.:06:29.

not just had a Government, they had the whole population. This is one of

:06:30.:06:33.

the poorest countries in the world with the highest rates of poverty?

:06:34.:06:39.

Yes, and some have said that they wanted to avoid this. We have heard

:06:40.:06:42.

from the Japanese ambassador to the United Nations. But he said

:06:43.:06:47.

everything else had been tried, Japan had tried to engage

:06:48.:06:51.

diplomatically with North Korea, which had not worked, economic

:06:52.:06:54.

corporation had not worked, it was time to get tough. But does

:06:55.:07:03.

Pyongyang care about that? Certainly if it was about getting the world to

:07:04.:07:05.

look for wave and they have certainly done that, there is no

:07:06.:07:10.

suggestion that they necessarily care about whatever the United

:07:11.:07:19.

Nations throws its way. China will be particularly upset, it wants to

:07:20.:07:22.

provide a deterrent but it does not want to destabilise the region and

:07:23.:07:26.

it wants the United States not to be looking to a any more than it

:07:27.:07:32.

already is. With this test, the eye of the US has been drawn in that

:07:33.:07:36.

direction and it may choose to increase its military presence in

:07:37.:07:40.

the region. Thank you, Aleem Maqbool, live from Washington, this

:07:41.:07:43.

is clearly a long-term issue which will not be resolved by the United

:07:44.:07:45.

Nations any time soon. Let's turn to this story

:07:46.:07:49.

about New Year's Eve in Cologne. We have covered this story several

:07:50.:07:53.

times this week. Many complaints of sexual

:07:54.:07:56.

assault were made by women, It is all relating to New Year's

:07:57.:08:05.

Eve. And today the German Interior

:08:06.:08:09.

Minister is criticising the police for being too slow to

:08:10.:08:12.

respond on the night. This is what he said. TRANSLATION:

:08:13.:08:19.

The events are detestable, outrageous and unacceptable. Now I

:08:20.:08:24.

expect things to come to light. Was it organised, was it really about

:08:25.:08:27.

North Africans, why was it possible to say that it would be peaceful on

:08:28.:08:32.

the next day? We need a clear, hard answer from the state and measures

:08:33.:08:36.

to ensure such things do not happen again. Rep work out what we know.

:08:37.:08:39.

We know the attacks took place around the city's

:08:40.:08:41.

It was around this two famous landmarks, in particular in one

:08:42.:08:51.

square just next door to Cologne Cathedral.

:08:52.:08:53.

This is the Cologne police website - they're reporting that more than 90

:08:54.:08:56.

Police have been the core source of many of the key elements of the

:08:57.:09:03.

story. The police are also saying that men

:09:04.:09:05.

who were involved are of Arab This is some of the video we have

:09:06.:09:08.

of what was happening. It was taken by somebody on the

:09:09.:09:16.

phone. Multiple accounts say that some men

:09:17.:09:24.

were letting off fireworks, It seems some people then returned -

:09:25.:09:27.

some reports claim 1000 - and dozens of attacks

:09:28.:09:38.

were carried out. It's the police response -

:09:39.:09:40.

or lack or it - at this point I want to show you some accounts of

:09:41.:10:01.

those who were there. TRANSLATION: All of a certain, these men around

:10:02.:10:06.

this began groping is, touching our behinds and walking in step with us.

:10:07.:10:09.

They touched us everywhere. My girlfriend and I wanted to get out

:10:10.:10:14.

of the crowd. When I turned around, one guy grabbed my bag and ripped it

:10:15.:10:18.

off my body. I thought if we stay in this crowd they could kill or Raper

:10:19.:10:22.

said nobody would notice. I thought we simply had to accept, no one

:10:23.:10:26.

around helped or was in a position to help. All I wanted was to get

:10:27.:10:31.

out. TRANSLATION: They felt they were in power and could do anything

:10:32.:10:35.

with the women out on the street partying. They touched us

:10:36.:10:40.

everywhere, it was truly terrible. TRANSLATION: We wanted help, we ran

:10:41.:10:43.

two police cars but no one was there. We knew very well that at

:10:44.:10:47.

that moment the police were so understaffed that they could not

:10:48.:10:50.

deal with this, so us women had to go through something like that.

:10:51.:11:03.

Let's go to Cologne and speak to Peter Pauls, editor of Kolner

:11:04.:11:09.

Stadt-Anzeiger. Does your paper have evidence that the men involved were

:11:10.:11:13.

of North African or Arab appearance? I think this is a very vague

:11:14.:11:20.

description. What the Cologne police chose, the term North African,

:11:21.:11:26.

whatever that will mean, we have evidence that people from Syria,

:11:27.:11:33.

Iraq and from Afghanistan took part... Lets say were part of the

:11:34.:11:37.

crowd. We can't say if they took part in the attacks, that is what we

:11:38.:11:42.

know. I have seen many different media outlets, the New York Times

:11:43.:11:46.

being one, describing this as coordinated. Is that how you

:11:47.:11:53.

describe the attacks? We have no evidence that it has been

:11:54.:11:55.

coordinated. What we know is that today we visited a refugee camp and

:11:56.:12:02.

approached some bystanders and asked, what do you know about New

:12:03.:12:09.

Year's Eve? They said freely, oh, yes, we went there, we took part

:12:10.:12:15.

but, of course, no, we didn't attack anyone. But we were part of the

:12:16.:12:18.

crowd. What I there must have been a kind of

:12:19.:12:27.

appointment. I am not sure. But the police should know it much better if

:12:28.:12:36.

it was a planned attack. But what I think is almost for sure is

:12:37.:12:44.

regarding with you back to the last few years, it is a point where

:12:45.:12:45.

people get migrating background, and now in

:12:46.:12:53.

Cologne we have about a minimum of 10,000 refugees, and if it spreads

:12:54.:12:57.

that they don't have anything to do. So

:12:58.:13:01.

why should they go there? seem strange to you, Peter, that

:13:02.:13:13.

almost six days since these incidents there are so many

:13:14.:13:17.

questions, so many things the Interior Ministry of Germany does

:13:18.:13:23.

not understand? Ross, I am very critical with the Cologne police and

:13:24.:13:29.

they can't understand the way they approached the whole affair. I think

:13:30.:13:33.

they have underestimated it completely. Also we have to

:13:34.:13:42.

criticise the national politic. As late as yesterday I think the issue

:13:43.:13:51.

attracted the national media. We appreciate you taking the time,

:13:52.:13:56.

thank you Peter Pauls from Kolner Stadt-Anzeiger, a local newspaper in

:13:57.:14:02.

Cologne. We can't be sure if that story is connect it to the huge

:14:03.:14:06.

number of Matty Gee 's and migrants that have come into Germany in the

:14:07.:14:10.

last 12 months -- refugees and migrants. But their crisis is very

:14:11.:14:14.

much real for Germans, and is being felt further north.

:14:15.:14:18.

Sweden is upping passport checks on its border with Denmark.

:14:19.:14:20.

Sweden's Oresund bridge is a link to Denmark and an open door

:14:21.:14:29.

For the first time in 50 years there are controls at the border.

:14:30.:14:41.

Trains rerouted, commuters delayed, refugees turned away.

:14:42.:14:45.

This tent city was hastily built just a few weeks ago.

:14:46.:15:02.

These tents are usually destined for disaster zones overseas.

:15:03.:15:06.

Right now Sweden is having to use them to deal with the crisis right

:15:07.:15:10.

This is one of the most welcoming countries in Europe

:15:11.:15:14.

Who knows what that means for Javid, he hopes his wife and children

:15:15.:15:23.

Sweden, he tells us, has been good to him.

:15:24.:15:37.

It is too much cold. But they have given as sweaters, gloves, shoes.

:15:38.:15:47.

So people have given you clothes?

:15:48.:15:48.

The border controls are said to be temporary, some fear

:15:49.:15:52.

This, after all, is supposed to be the Schengen zone where European

:15:53.:15:57.

citizens have the right to borderless travel.

:15:58.:16:12.

No wonder, perhaps, the Deputy Prime Minister shed tears as the decision

:16:13.:16:17.

was announced. A decision she went on to describe as terrible. It has

:16:18.:16:20.

went down badly here, too. The people we met in this Malmo

:16:21.:16:22.

coffee shop told us they have friends, jobs, even homes, just

:16:23.:16:25.

across the bridge in Copenhagen. I actually had a nightmare the other

:16:26.:16:28.

day that I went to Copenhagen for shopping and I didn't

:16:29.:16:31.

have any ID or passport. And I was like, how am

:16:32.:16:33.

I supposed to come home?! I think that we probably should be

:16:34.:16:38.

more into like the soul of Sweden Because I don't think the way

:16:39.:16:45.

we are handling the situation right As Sweden struggles

:16:46.:16:52.

with its decision, the refugee Exposing its borders,

:16:53.:16:57.

perhaps even changing its horizons. We often speak to the BBC's science

:16:58.:17:22.

correspondent, Rebecca Morelle. We will be playing her latest report

:17:23.:17:26.

soon, looking ahead to the big space stories coming our way in 2016.

:17:27.:17:31.

Three Labour MPs have quit the party's front bench today

:17:32.:17:34.

in protest at sackings made by Jeremy Corbyn in his reshuffle.

:17:35.:17:38.

Mr Corbyn sacked two of his ministers and replaced his

:17:39.:17:40.

The move is being viewed by some within his party,

:17:41.:17:44.

as punishment for those who don't share his views on key policies -

:17:45.:17:47.

There is very little room for manoeuvre. That goes back to the

:17:48.:18:01.

fundamental, and this is what Jeremy Corbyn wrestles with every single

:18:02.:18:05.

day as Labour leader, he has a huge amount of support within the Labour

:18:06.:18:10.

movement, particularly those who join the party or signed up in order

:18:11.:18:13.

to vote for him, but he looks around the Parliamentary party and a huge

:18:14.:18:20.

amount of people don't like or rate him, both don't like his politics

:18:21.:18:25.

but also don't think he is credible in terms of operation as a party

:18:26.:18:30.

leader. I suspect for many of them, how he has conducted this reshuffle

:18:31.:18:31.

will only have added to their fears. This is Outside Source live

:18:32.:18:39.

from the BBC newsroom. Our lead story is: North Korea says

:18:40.:18:41.

it's successfully carried out a test People there are celebrating,

:18:42.:18:44.

but there's been scepticism and condemnation from

:18:45.:18:52.

the international community. Let's bring you some of the main

:18:53.:18:58.

stories from BBC World Service. The Turkish authorities say they've

:18:59.:19:02.

confiscated more than 1,000 fake life jackets which were intended

:19:03.:19:05.

for migrants wanting to cross Oil keeps going down -

:19:06.:19:07.

it's at below $35 a barrel And this video of what is supposed

:19:08.:19:20.

to be the world's safest drone - and the moment a BBC

:19:21.:19:31.

reporter broke it. All the moving parts are covered

:19:32.:19:33.

in a protective outer coating, so people don't get

:19:34.:19:36.

hurt if they touch it - not such great protection

:19:37.:19:38.

for itself, though, evidently. Netflix has had a number of huge

:19:39.:19:53.

moments. Perhaps today wrings its biggest.

:19:54.:19:54.

That means it is available almost everywhere.

:19:55.:20:02.

Nada Tawfik is live in New York. Rather than getting you to list me

:20:03.:20:13.

where it is, where is Netflix not? If you look, basically they are not

:20:14.:20:17.

in China. They say that they want to try to expand into China in the next

:20:18.:20:22.

year, but they were reportedly in talks with Ali Baba to maybe do a

:20:23.:20:27.

partnership with them, but Ali Baba now has its own subscription -based

:20:28.:20:31.

screaming network -- streaming network synaptic says it will be a

:20:32.:20:35.

time before they get into that. They have restrictions from the US to do

:20:36.:20:39.

business, they can any other US company, in countries like Syria,

:20:40.:20:43.

North Korea and Crimea. They must have been working hard, when Netflix

:20:44.:20:48.

set out it was hoping to negotiate how it operated country by country

:20:49.:20:54.

by country. Has it done that a lot faster or has it cut a cross-border

:20:55.:20:59.

deal? What is really interesting is how quickly this has happened.

:21:00.:21:04.

Netflix had said that they wanted to expand globally by the end of 2016,

:21:05.:21:10.

not by the start of 2016, but that is what they have done, they have

:21:11.:21:18.

gone from 60 countries to about 190. This has really sent the stock price

:21:19.:21:22.

up. They are up over 9% on this news. It is really because Netflix

:21:23.:21:26.

is concerned about their domestic user base. It is still growing but

:21:27.:21:31.

slowly. They have looked into overseas partnerships. It is still a

:21:32.:21:38.

bit reduced to urban areas with Internet service, but Netflix has

:21:39.:21:43.

made waves in getting more languages up, working with different countries

:21:44.:21:47.

to make sure that in that country's setting it is seamlessly available

:21:48.:21:50.

to people to use. That is what Netflix has done, they have spent

:21:51.:21:55.

and invested a lot of the back of their stop going up around 100% in

:21:56.:22:01.

2015, and really use that to go global. Nada Tawfik, it has

:22:02.:22:07.

increased its reach, let's see if it adds significant users.

:22:08.:22:09.

CES is the world's biggest consumer technology get-together -

:22:10.:22:12.

This headset mixes the virtual and real worlds, I can see my hands and

:22:13.:22:35.

use a finger to give the urban spin. There are also is of robots in all

:22:36.:22:38.

shapes and sizes doing all sorts of things. The JoBro botch up

:22:39.:22:44.

assistant. It where the bread counter is, it will show you. Some

:22:45.:22:51.

of these products never make it to market, but this is the place to

:22:52.:22:54.

come if you want to see the things that will be big in the future and

:22:55.:22:58.

the trends in the industry. The people here are making the products

:22:59.:23:01.

that will build the future. We are used to seeing all sorts of new

:23:02.:23:05.

televisions, but this is very different. LG says this is the

:23:06.:23:10.

world's first rollable, flexible screen. I seem to have not broken

:23:11.:23:16.

it. This is a prototype, but when they get much bigger you can take

:23:17.:23:20.

your television in the front room, roll it up and put it away when you

:23:21.:23:25.

are not using it. This is becoming more and more a motor show,

:23:26.:23:29.

brand-new Californian firm that a Chinese money launch this electric

:23:30.:23:34.

concept car. It is never likely to move from fantasy to reality,

:23:35.:23:39.

although the company says it has a more realistic electric car in the

:23:40.:23:43.

pipeline. These days, everything is smart and intelligent. You have

:23:44.:23:49.

smart watches, smart jewellery, smart toilets, Smart thermostat,

:23:50.:23:55.

everything except the car. Our plan is to build the most intelligent

:23:56.:24:00.

vehicle on the road. Here is something really futuristic, a

:24:01.:24:03.

headset which stimulates hair growth with lasers. The makers point out

:24:04.:24:08.

that even the latest technology cannot work miracles. What will be

:24:09.:24:12.

happening? The gob where it is very shiny, not very much.

:24:13.:24:21.

We covered a good few stories about space

:24:22.:24:23.

Often Rebecca Morelle helps us. She is looking ahead to 2016.

:24:24.:24:33.

These are my top space stories to look out for in 2016. As I speak,

:24:34.:24:40.

Nasa's Juno spacecraft is closing in on Jupiter. It launched in 2011 and
