:00:07. > :00:12.Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

:00:13. > :00:17.It is an album of international news live from the BBC newsroom. -- an

:00:18. > :00:19.hour of. We'll start once again

:00:20. > :00:20.with the Zika virus. The scientists studying the virus

:00:21. > :00:24.in the US say it could take 10 years before a vaccine is

:00:25. > :00:25.publicly available. I've got a BBC

:00:26. > :00:27.exclusive to show you. Spanish police target one

:00:28. > :00:29.of the Europe's biggest human trafficking rings, rounding up gangs

:00:30. > :00:31.who've made millions The European Union has told Greece

:00:32. > :00:36.that its seriously failed in its obligation to protect

:00:37. > :00:45.Europe's external border. The Greeks have responded, we will

:00:46. > :00:49.play you that, too. I'll show you this

:00:50. > :00:50.report from Libya. BBC Arabic's Feras Kilani is one

:00:51. > :00:53.of the few journalists to get into Benghazi, where the army

:00:54. > :00:56.is losing ground to Islamist militants including

:00:57. > :01:11.so called Islamic State. And in half an hour, Katty Kay will

:01:12. > :01:13.be talking about Donald Trump, why he is boycotting the final

:01:14. > :01:36.Republican presidential TV debate. It is probably fair to say that we

:01:37. > :01:41.have gone from knowing nothing about the Zika virus to being shocked on

:01:42. > :01:46.the impact it is having on more families' lives. Each day has

:01:47. > :01:50.brought a new development, US scientists say it could take years

:01:51. > :01:53.before a vaccine is publicly available. But Brazil and other

:01:54. > :01:58.countries across the Americas don't have that time.

:01:59. > :02:02.A reminder, it's carried by the Aedes mosquito.

:02:03. > :02:12.Somebody is bitten by the mosquito, they then bite somebody else who

:02:13. > :02:15.also becomes infected. It is not these symptoms themselves that are

:02:16. > :02:20.causing the concern, it is what if a pregnant woman gets it. It is not

:02:21. > :02:24.confirmed but it is believed that if the mother or the pregnant woman has

:02:25. > :02:29.the virus, there is a chance that her baby will develop something

:02:30. > :02:30.called microcephaly, it causes underdeveloped brains and can have

:02:31. > :02:33.serious ramifications. James Cook has been given access

:02:34. > :02:36.to the laboratory in Texas which is leading the

:02:37. > :02:41.search for a vaccine. It is the latest virus to send

:02:42. > :02:44.shivers around the world. There is no vaccine

:02:45. > :02:46.for Zika, no treatment. And in the past few months,

:02:47. > :02:49.it has been spreading fast to more than 20 countries in

:02:50. > :02:52.the Caribbean and Latin America. Last year when it reached Brazil,

:02:53. > :02:55.it really exploded in the Americas and has spread very quickly

:02:56. > :02:57.infecting probably a couple Should people be frightened,

:02:58. > :03:04.especially pregnant women? If I had a daughter of child-bearing

:03:05. > :03:09.age who was planning a spring vacation to the Caribbean

:03:10. > :03:14.in the next few months, I would strongly urge her not to go

:03:15. > :03:23.there at this point. These young mothers in Brazil

:03:24. > :03:26.did not have that choice. The Zika virus apparently attacks

:03:27. > :03:29.the brains of unborn children and it And so scientists from this high

:03:30. > :03:33.security lab in Texas have been gathering samples in

:03:34. > :03:36.Brazil to find out more. Some mosquitoes have tested positive

:03:37. > :03:47.or negative for Zika and right now we are really at the beginning

:03:48. > :03:50.stages and this is the forefront of the work that you

:03:51. > :03:53.are seeing us doing. The ultimate aim is to produce

:03:54. > :03:56.a vaccine, although that work has only just begun, scientists say

:03:57. > :03:59.they could have one ready But winning approval from regulators

:04:00. > :04:06.could take much longer. Developing an effective vaccine

:04:07. > :04:10.would take a short period of time, but it would take a longer time

:04:11. > :04:15.in the process of passing it through the FDA and other regulatory

:04:16. > :04:18.agencies to allow it for public use. That could take up

:04:19. > :04:24.to ten or 12 years. And working with insects that can

:04:25. > :04:26.carry such a dangerous virus There are around 15,000 mosquitoes

:04:27. > :04:32.in this room from a dozen different countries and they are kept under

:04:33. > :04:34.very tight security conditions to make sure that none

:04:35. > :04:41.of them can escape. This mosquito passes the virus

:04:42. > :04:48.from person to person, could spread anywhere

:04:49. > :04:52.the insects are present, including right here

:04:53. > :04:54.in the southern United States. James Cook, BBC News,

:04:55. > :05:07.Galveston in Texas. That may be getting a lot of

:05:08. > :05:12.attention in the Americas, but here in Europe it is another day, another

:05:13. > :05:15.example of the extraordinary pressures that the migrant crisis is

:05:16. > :05:16.exerting on Europe and its institutions.

:05:17. > :05:18.The European Commission has accused Greece of seriously

:05:19. > :05:26.neglecting its duties by failing to control its borders.

:05:27. > :05:32.As we have discussed many, many times, many migrants choose to come

:05:33. > :05:33.through Turkey, into Greece and then onwards northwards into Europe.

:05:34. > :05:36.It says the Greek authorities have failed to properly register,

:05:37. > :05:44.fingerprint and check the identities of migrants arriving in Greece.

:05:45. > :05:50.With all of this is a no-nonsense message telling Greece to sort these

:05:51. > :05:51.problems out. But here is the response of the Greek Prime Minister

:05:52. > :05:54.from a little while ago. TRANSLATION: Despite our great

:05:55. > :05:56.weaknesses, our difficulties, despite the fact that we find

:05:57. > :06:00.ourselves in a financial crisis and in a difficult adjustment,

:06:01. > :06:03.Greece is managing to deal with this crisis by showing the human face

:06:04. > :06:05.of Europe, setting forth the need to stand by our fellow

:06:06. > :06:08.man who is in danger, whose life is in danger,

:06:09. > :06:11.who is being persecuted, and I think this is a significant

:06:12. > :06:15.contribution to Europe and European civilisation which, in my opinion,

:06:16. > :06:36.is being shamed by the images Everyone agrees that crisis is an

:06:37. > :06:42.appropriate word, whether it is a European crisis or a Greek crisis.

:06:43. > :06:43.Damian Grammaticas response from Brussels.

:06:44. > :06:46.The Greek government's response has been that it simply cannot turn back

:06:47. > :06:48.boats that are at sea, that would be illegal

:06:49. > :06:52.It can't try to push people back towards Turkey,

:06:53. > :06:53.it has to receive them on its shores.

:06:54. > :06:57.And we've heard the Greek government saying that what it needs is greater

:06:58. > :06:59.help from its European partners and greater assistance from Turkey

:07:00. > :07:02.if it is to both stop the boats coming and return quickly those

:07:03. > :07:04.who are not deemed in need of international protection,

:07:05. > :07:11.so people who are not refugees fleeing war zones.

:07:12. > :07:14.But all of those things are proving problematic and so,

:07:15. > :07:17.in a way, Greece, I think, feels that it's being caught very

:07:18. > :07:21.much in the middle in this, and has to accept people

:07:22. > :07:25.who are then moving onto the rest of Europe, which is causing problems

:07:26. > :07:38.therefore European countries seeking to try to those numbers.

:07:39. > :07:45.I have already paid you a special report from Texas. We have another

:07:46. > :07:50.coming about the situation in Libya. But next to a special BBC report

:07:51. > :07:53.from Orla Guerin on one of the biggest human

:07:54. > :07:55.trafficking rings in Europe. Spanish police have given the BBC

:07:56. > :07:58.exclusive access to their raids - and they claim that gangs

:07:59. > :08:00.are increasingly using UK airports These gangs are run by Nigerians,

:08:01. > :08:04.and they trafficked hundreds The group is still being

:08:05. > :08:07.investigated and the BBC was asked to delay broadcasting the story

:08:08. > :08:10.to ensure the safety of the women We've done that, but now we can play

:08:11. > :08:18.you Orla's report from Barcelona. Sunrise in Barcelona,

:08:19. > :08:21.the city of dreams, standing proud with its rich heritage

:08:22. > :08:28.and architectural jewels. But after night fall,

:08:29. > :08:30.in the back streets, This is where undercover police have

:08:31. > :08:34.been monitoring a trafficking ring and its victims,

:08:35. > :08:41.watching every move. We joined the assault teams

:08:42. > :08:44.as they prepared to strike at locations in Barcelona

:08:45. > :08:49.and several cities nearby. Around 250 officers taking part

:08:50. > :08:52.in the biggest operation yet against Nigerian crime bosses

:08:53. > :08:58.who call themselves, Around 8:00am, they close

:08:59. > :09:07.in on an apartment block. In seconds they're inside,

:09:08. > :09:19.hunting for one of the targets Well, the police are inside now,

:09:20. > :09:32.questioning suspects. While they were carrying out

:09:33. > :09:35.the raid here, more than 20 other buildings were being

:09:36. > :09:40.hit simultaneously. This has been a long

:09:41. > :09:42.time in the planning, the investigation into this criminal

:09:43. > :09:47.network began a year-and-a-half ago. Police detained the group's main

:09:48. > :09:52.leaders and gathered evidence The gang charges its victims

:09:53. > :10:06.about ?28,000 to get to Spain, then forces them into prostitution

:10:07. > :10:13.to pay off the debt. Police say those arrested are part

:10:14. > :10:16.of a sophisticated criminal enterprise that spans the globe

:10:17. > :10:18.with representatives in cities in the Middle East,

:10:19. > :10:28.Africa, the US and the EU. The head of the Anti-Trafficking

:10:29. > :10:31.Unit told us a key figure is based in London, bringing women

:10:32. > :10:33.into the UK on fake He says the gang is looking

:10:34. > :10:39.more and more to Britain One of the main new ways to enter

:10:40. > :10:46.victims is through the airports It's a different system to traffic

:10:47. > :10:57.people and it needs always forgeries and is more expensive,

:10:58. > :10:59.but is more secure and we have Here, in down town Barcelona,

:11:00. > :11:12.the Nigerians are believed to have made millions from women working

:11:13. > :11:18.the streets in the shadows. They are kept in line by threats

:11:19. > :11:20.to their families back home and by physical abuse from Madames

:11:21. > :11:27.who act as enforcers. We met one young woman

:11:28. > :11:29.who was trafficked from Nigeria She says she and her child

:11:30. > :11:38.were brutalised by her Madame. She hit my face and my eyes

:11:39. > :11:44.and beat me until blood came One day, when she came

:11:45. > :11:48.for the money, I couldn't pay. She hit me on the head

:11:49. > :11:51.with a bottle. Police hope more women will be able

:11:52. > :11:59.to escape the streets here now the Nigerian traffickers

:12:00. > :12:04.have been rounded up, but they say their barbaric trade

:12:05. > :12:24.in human beings will continue If you have just joined me during

:12:25. > :12:28.that reporter and you would like to see all of it, or perhaps you would

:12:29. > :12:30.like to share with someone, it is on the BBC News app and the BBC News

:12:31. > :12:35.website. All week we have been talking about

:12:36. > :12:40.the Arabian president being in Europe. He has shifted from Italy to

:12:41. > :12:44.France today and we will get the help of BBC Persian in telling you

:12:45. > :12:58.about some of the deals he has been cutting with the French.

:12:59. > :13:03.One of the most read stories is that the convicted murderer Levi

:13:04. > :13:07.Bellfield has admitted for the first time abducting, raping and murdering

:13:08. > :13:12.the 13-year-old schoolgirl Milly Dowler, she was snatched on her way

:13:13. > :13:15.home in 2002. In this case, the whole life tariff

:13:16. > :13:21.means he can't be released full -- released. He is 47, he is imprisoned

:13:22. > :13:26.calling himself Yusuf Rahim. The family has been through an awful

:13:27. > :13:31.time following the death of their daughter. I was there the day that

:13:32. > :13:37.Levi Bellfield was convicted of Milly Dowler's murder, Millie's

:13:38. > :13:43.mother was in pieces. It was an awful, awful thing to witness. --

:13:44. > :13:47.Milly's's mother. They also have the problem of her phone being hacked in

:13:48. > :13:51.the phone hacking scandal. This is another very bad day for them but it

:13:52. > :13:57.at least give some closure with regards to his admission of guilt.

:13:58. > :13:59.This is Outside Source live from the BBC newsroom.

:14:00. > :14:02.The scientists studying the Zika virus in the US

:14:03. > :14:13.say it could take 10 years before a vaccine is publicly available.

:14:14. > :14:17.Journalists are working in close to 30 languages in the BBC newsroom,

:14:18. > :14:19.let's pick up some of their stories. The International Criminal Court

:14:20. > :14:21.has given the go ahead to an investigation into alleged war

:14:22. > :14:24.crimes by Russian and Georgian says it wants a review

:14:25. > :14:33.of the decision to clear the Prime Minister of illegally

:14:34. > :14:37.accepting millions of dollars. On Tuesday the attorney

:14:38. > :14:40.general said the payment - $700 million, no less -

:14:41. > :14:42.was a personal donation from the Saudi royal family,

:14:43. > :14:44.and that he'd broken no laws. This is the moment that the Hulton

:14:45. > :14:52.Bridge in Pennsylvania It's 107 years old and it was

:14:53. > :15:00.deemed rusty and shaky - neither of which are things you're

:15:01. > :15:02.looking for in a bridge. A new Hulton Bridge has been

:15:03. > :15:18.constructed right by its side. All those pictures through the BBC

:15:19. > :15:22.news app. Let's turn to a story we have

:15:23. > :15:24.covered several times, it concerns the stand-off in Oregon in the

:15:25. > :15:27.north-west of the US. An armed group occupied a federal

:15:28. > :15:32.building near a town called Burns. It is a national wildlife refuge.

:15:33. > :15:37.The story have arrested. Well police have arrested

:15:38. > :15:39.the group's leader Ammon Bundy with another person killed, believed

:15:40. > :15:46.to be the group's spokesperson. This happened during a shootout

:15:47. > :15:48.after police stopped a car somewhere This story has many facets,

:15:49. > :15:59.but the root lies in a longstanding dispute between local ranchers

:16:00. > :16:01.and the federal government over Oregon Public Broadcasting has

:16:02. > :16:26.helped us several times on this Well, it happened more than 50

:16:27. > :16:30.kilometres from the national wildlife refuge, which has been

:16:31. > :16:34.occupied by these men and women. The leaders of the group were on their

:16:35. > :16:39.way to a need right -- in nearby community called John Day, where

:16:40. > :16:42.they planned to meet with ranchers and try to recruit people to join

:16:43. > :16:47.their cause. Somewhere along the route, Oregon State police troopers

:16:48. > :16:53.and FBI agent stops them. We don't know what prompted the shooting, but

:16:54. > :16:58.we know shots were fired. One person, we believe it was Ryan

:16:59. > :17:02.Bundy, the brother of the leader of the movement, was injured. And a

:17:03. > :17:07.rancher from Arizona who has been a spokesman for the group was shot and

:17:08. > :17:12.killed, we believe. Additionally, seven men and one woman were

:17:13. > :17:16.arrested yesterday. As an outsider looking in, it seems extraordinary

:17:17. > :17:20.that you are able to occupy a federal building and still leave the

:17:21. > :17:24.building and go to other places in the state to recruit support. Have

:17:25. > :17:32.they been able to do this over the last few weeks? Yes. Just last week

:17:33. > :17:37.they had travelled to a town called Crane not far from the refuge and

:17:38. > :17:42.urged dozens of ranchers to terror that contracts with the federal

:17:43. > :17:47.government and refuse to pay grazing fees. They have not recruited anyone

:17:48. > :17:52.out of that meeting to join them. It seems they were very

:17:53. > :17:53.just on occupying the refuge but trying to start a movement,

:17:54. > :18:00.that political message. They had begun to travel further as part of

:18:01. > :18:04.the effort. The leader has been arrested, but the occupation goes

:18:05. > :18:10.on. Have you spoken to any of the people still carrying it out? We

:18:11. > :18:13.have. One of those people is broadcasting a live stream from the

:18:14. > :18:21.refuge right now. Many of the occupiers left the refuge last night

:18:22. > :18:27.after word came of the arrests and the death. The FBI has set of RFK 's

:18:28. > :18:31.now in the area, they are controlling traffic, but we believe

:18:32. > :18:36.fewer than ten people remain up the site -- the FBI has set up ROK 's

:18:37. > :18:41.now. There was one woman, in addition to a number of men. They

:18:42. > :18:47.say they plan to stay. They are heavily armed. We have no sign that

:18:48. > :18:52.they intend to surrender. Many thanks to Amelia. Somebody in

:18:53. > :18:56.the New York Times said the driver of the car was claiming that the

:18:57. > :19:04.person who died charged the police. We can't confirm that. But here is a

:19:05. > :19:11.quote. We shall have to wait to hear from the police from more.

:19:12. > :19:14.But I can play you a news conference given in Burns from law enforcement

:19:15. > :19:19.agents. If it was as simple as just waiting

:19:20. > :19:23.out some folks to get out of some buildings we could have waited a lot

:19:24. > :19:32.longer. But this has been tearing our community apart. It is time for

:19:33. > :19:47.everybody in this illegal occupation to move on. There doesn't have to be

:19:48. > :19:53.bloodshed in our community. That story will go on, you will get full

:19:54. > :20:02.details here. In the meantime, let's begin our business. You will know

:20:03. > :20:04.that the Arabian president has been to Italy and met the Pope and the

:20:05. > :20:05.Prime Minister. Iran's president Hassan Rouhani has

:20:06. > :20:08.moved on from Italy to France. This trip is fundamentally

:20:09. > :20:09.about business deals following the lifting

:20:10. > :20:15.of international sanctions against It is the first time an Iranian

:20:16. > :20:28.leader has been to Europe for 16 years. Here are some details on what

:20:29. > :20:29.the French and Iranians be agree on. -- will be agreeing.

:20:30. > :20:32.It is likely that Iran will order more than 100 new aircraft

:20:33. > :20:38.from Airbus, which is a European consortium based in France.

:20:39. > :20:44.I've been talking to Kasra Naji from BBC Persian about all of this.

:20:45. > :20:52.This is the first time in 60 years that an Iranian president visits a

:20:53. > :20:57.European country. Iran is coming in from the cold, as it were, after the

:20:58. > :21:03.lifting of the sanctions. These are the first visits to outside

:21:04. > :21:09.countries by the president. I am sure there will be more. As you say,

:21:10. > :21:16.the main thing is is going out there with a big shopping list. Iran was

:21:17. > :21:22.starved of services and goods for the last ten years at least when the

:21:23. > :21:29.sanctions started. Due to this nuclear programme. There is quite a

:21:30. > :21:38.bit to be done. They want planes and vehicles, what else? They also need

:21:39. > :21:43.Total, the French oil company, to go back to Iran and helped develop some

:21:44. > :21:51.of the oil and gas fields and also modernise the Iranians oil industry

:21:52. > :21:55.which has been pretty much neglected because of lack of spare parts and

:21:56. > :22:01.technology. That is a big deal and cost a lot of money and they need to

:22:02. > :22:08.come to some kind of agreement on how this will be done. They need

:22:09. > :22:12.tens of billions of dollars to even start scratching the surface of that

:22:13. > :22:16.modernisation that they need to do. It has been interesting talking

:22:17. > :22:20.online with viewers about the visit. Lots are asking when people back in

:22:21. > :22:26.Iran will feel the difference because of these big deal? I guess

:22:27. > :22:30.they will have to be patient? I think they will, actually. It will

:22:31. > :22:37.take to it won't happen overnight. It is a slow process. They are just

:22:38. > :22:43.coming out of sanctions. The banks, going back to run, it will take

:22:44. > :22:49.time. It will not that easy. -- going back to Iran. The benefits

:22:50. > :22:54.will be down the line, not needed. Is the state dinner happening? I

:22:55. > :22:58.know there has been discussion? I don't think so, the Iranians do not

:22:59. > :23:02.want to sit at a table where wine is served, and the French don't want to

:23:03. > :23:08.go to a dinner without French wine being served. It will not happen, it
