:00:12. > :00:21.Hello welcome to outside source, at least 18 people are dead after a

:00:22. > :00:25.flyover collapsed in Calcutta in India, we will hear from our Indian

:00:26. > :00:29.correspondent who is there. South Africa's top court has ruled that

:00:30. > :00:35.the president violated the concert you by not paying back public funds,

:00:36. > :00:39.used to upgrade his residence. Amnesty International said that

:00:40. > :00:44.workers building one of the flagship stadiums for Qatar 2022 World Cup

:00:45. > :00:49.are being abused. And the British Iraqi architect Zaha Hadid has died

:00:50. > :00:52.aged 65, she has designed iconic buildings all around the world

:00:53. > :00:57.including the aquatic Centre for the London Olympics. Don't forget you

:00:58. > :01:14.can keep in touch with us here, using the hashtag.

:01:15. > :01:19.Emergency services in India are working frantically to rescue people

:01:20. > :01:25.that are trapped under a collapsed flyover. It happened in the city of

:01:26. > :01:30.Calcutta in one of the most densely populated neighbourhoods, at least

:01:31. > :01:35.20 people have been killed and it is still not yet clear exactly how many

:01:36. > :01:41.more are feared trapped. One of the tweets coming in from one of the

:01:42. > :01:48.papers, they said that the manager behind the construction called it an

:01:49. > :01:52.act of God. We have been following this all very closely, let us hear a

:01:53. > :01:55.little bit more, an update on this story.

:01:56. > :01:57.This is normally one of Kolkata's busiest areas,

:01:58. > :02:04.Shoppers had been heading to the City's largest market

:02:05. > :02:10.at midday when the flyover collapsed and people fled for their lives,

:02:11. > :02:12.some escaped but eyewitnesses say that many are still trapped.

:02:13. > :02:14.Loved ones are coming here desperately seeking

:02:15. > :02:19.information as to what has happened to their relatives.

:02:20. > :02:22.The police are having to use wooden sticks to move

:02:23. > :02:29.them away as they try to get more and more equipment into this area.

:02:30. > :02:31.Every minute more ambulances are leaving the scene and taking

:02:32. > :02:34.The Army is leading the rescue operations -

:02:35. > :02:37.they are using thermal cameras to try to find those missing

:02:38. > :02:41.and have brought in cranes to remove the rubble.

:02:42. > :02:44.Many locals have described the initial

:02:45. > :02:53.For the first few hours volunteers used

:02:54. > :02:56.their bare hands to try to move huge slabs of concrete which had people

:02:57. > :03:02.This rescue operation will continue into the night,

:03:03. > :03:05.as one of India's largest cities tries to deal with what one

:03:06. > :03:17.local politician has called a monumental tragedy.

:03:18. > :03:23.Let us turn to South Africa, their president has been taught by the

:03:24. > :03:29.highest court that he has to return some of the money spent on upgrading

:03:30. > :03:33.his home. His residence has expanded significantly since he first

:03:34. > :03:40.occupied it. It is thought that $23 million of public money has been

:03:41. > :03:44.spent. This was taken back in 2012 and the government says that the

:03:45. > :03:49.upgrades war for security, but critics say that doesn't explain the

:03:50. > :04:02.summing pool, the Abbey Theatre, the Catling closure or the chicken run.

:04:03. > :04:06.We are outside of the concert usual court in Johannesburg, and it was a

:04:07. > :04:10.ruling that was pretty bad against Jacob Zuma has just been made. The

:04:11. > :04:16.opposition are smelling blood and they want to impeach him, because

:04:17. > :04:24.the judge said that President Zuma failed to uphold the Constitution.

:04:25. > :04:30.Now as they say after all of the drama, the ball is in the Court of

:04:31. > :04:36.the ANC. They have a few options available, they can either follow an

:04:37. > :04:46.impeachment process, that has now been started by the opposition and

:04:47. > :04:50.vote against their own president in Parliament, when they recalled the

:04:51. > :05:03.former president, the other option of course is just to stick it out

:05:04. > :05:07.and keep going with the president. Let us move to an old from Nasa list

:05:08. > :05:12.Serbian politician who was found not guilty of war crimes during the

:05:13. > :05:15.Balkan wars in the 1990s. The UN tribunal for war crimes in the

:05:16. > :05:20.former Yugoslavia found that the prosecution was unable to

:05:21. > :05:24.substantiate any of the nine counts against him. They related to the

:05:25. > :05:29.forced removal of thousands of Croats and Muslims from their homes.

:05:30. > :05:39.He was quoted saying, that this time:

:05:40. > :05:53.it is what the Croatian Prime Minister said: it has been one of

:05:54. > :05:56.the great courtroom dramas, an epic in fact, 13 years since he

:05:57. > :06:00.surrendered to the tribunal, finally the day of judgment had arrived. The

:06:01. > :06:07.defendant himself was absent on health grounds. Relating to crimes

:06:08. > :06:12.against humanity, the court reached a majority verdict, one dissenting,

:06:13. > :06:17.that the accusation was not proven beyond all reasonable doubt, that a

:06:18. > :06:21.generalised systematic attack was launched on the non-Serbian civilian

:06:22. > :06:28.population in the vast majority of Croatia and Bosnia. It established

:06:29. > :06:31.there was an armed conflict between enemy military forces with civilian

:06:32. > :06:36.components. The prosecutor in the opinion of the majority did not

:06:37. > :06:39.paint a picture which clearly showed that civilians were targeted and

:06:40. > :06:46.mass even though they did not take part in the combat. Acquitted on all

:06:47. > :06:51.nine charges, it meant vindication for the radical party leader. The

:06:52. > :06:56.poster says he is a winner and his party is running in next month

:06:57. > :07:01.general election in Serbia. He is no longer the populist firebrand of the

:07:02. > :07:07.1990s. He has the come a marginal figure in a country moving towards

:07:08. > :07:11.European Union membership. Today he's not even Oakley the same as he

:07:12. > :07:14.was before he went to the Hague tribunal, today he is the leader of

:07:15. > :07:21.a party that will probably reach the election threshold. In public life I

:07:22. > :07:28.would say that he is one of the weakest political figures today in

:07:29. > :07:32.Serbia. That is reflected in lower attendance in rallies, the

:07:33. > :07:37.ultranationalist line no longer appeals, they have seen wearing lead

:07:38. > :07:41.them in the 1990s and the verdict in the Hague is unlikely to produce a

:07:42. > :07:51.political revival for him and his allies. Now too sad news, the Iraqi

:07:52. > :07:56.born architect Zaha Hadid has died after a heart attack in a Miami

:07:57. > :08:07.hospital where she was treated for bronchitis. The 60 Five Rd was the

:08:08. > :08:10.first person to receive a medal for her work. They have been

:08:11. > :08:17.commissioned all over the world including the London aquatic centre,

:08:18. > :08:20.and another one is this centre in Azerbaijan's capital backed coup,

:08:21. > :08:23.and also what would have been a national stadium in Tokyo although

:08:24. > :08:30.that was actually cancelled by the Japanese government. Somebody who

:08:31. > :08:35.has a BA Honours in interior design, works at the BBC is with us on

:08:36. > :08:41.outside source to talk to us a bit about this woman. How did you see

:08:42. > :08:46.her work and the woman? I mean I loved her work and she was a great

:08:47. > :08:50.inspiration to me and to a lot of other people like me, but just

:08:51. > :08:56.architects. She was a very strong powerful woman, she was bold, she

:08:57. > :09:00.was brave, she was unexpected and that was reflected on her design and

:09:01. > :09:03.that is what made her so brilliant. She dared to imagine, she had

:09:04. > :09:11.visions that she made them happen. Queen of the curb, many would say

:09:12. > :09:16.that she was the most famous and well-known female architect. But she

:09:17. > :09:22.might have had an issue with being described that way? Yes I mean, if I

:09:23. > :09:27.think she was here, from having met her a few times and gone to her

:09:28. > :09:31.lectures, if she was here right now she would have objected to that. She

:09:32. > :09:35.wasn't just a female architect, she was an architect and she was great

:09:36. > :09:42.at it. She would have said there was no reason to differentiate her from

:09:43. > :09:47.the rest of her peers. She wasn't just a good architect, she was a

:09:48. > :09:52.great architect and she was a female architect. I think that is what made

:09:53. > :09:56.her such an inspiration. She did not see her background or her being a

:09:57. > :10:00.female as an obstacle. She wanted to do something and she went better

:10:01. > :10:05.than she did it. Did you have a favourite building? Not ready, I

:10:06. > :10:10.like all of her work, the organic shapes, fluidity. I love the fact,

:10:11. > :10:17.that her buildings reflected how modern age. We live in an age of

:10:18. > :10:22.speed and technology and you could see that in her designs, look at the

:10:23. > :10:28.building in Azerbaijan, the cultural centre. It was so beautiful and it

:10:29. > :10:33.just blends in with the landscape. The colours, the textures, the

:10:34. > :10:36.materials and it reminds me of that furniture that she'd assigned. She

:10:37. > :10:42.did the most beautiful 3-D printed shoes. And recently, with her

:10:43. > :10:49.jewellery collection. Thank you for speaking to us. Coming up in the

:10:50. > :10:52.programme shortly, more about Donald Trump, the hopefuls about abortion,

:10:53. > :10:57.he says that women should be punished about abortion, before

:10:58. > :11:10.changing his mind, he says now the doctor should be held responsible.

:11:11. > :11:15.Prime Minister David Cameron has said that he would do everything he

:11:16. > :11:20.could to help the steel industry, he ruled out nationalising Tata Steel

:11:21. > :11:24.plants, something that Labour has called for. Let us hear more from Mr

:11:25. > :11:29.Cameron and John McDonnell of labour. Those jobs are vital to work

:11:30. > :11:33.as families and communities and the government will do everything it

:11:34. > :11:37.can, working with the company to try and secure the future of

:11:38. > :11:40.steel-making in Port Talbot and across the country. It is a vital

:11:41. > :11:45.industry. I don't believe that nationalisation is the right answer,

:11:46. > :11:50.we wanted to secure a long-term future for Port Talbot and other

:11:51. > :11:55.parts of the United Kingdom. If there is not a buyer it will have

:11:56. > :11:58.two be nationalised to stabilise and then we will look at investment

:11:59. > :12:02.strategy for the long-term future. In that way buyers make emerge, but

:12:03. > :12:15.we have got to secure the industry in the short term to give us those

:12:16. > :12:20.options. This is outside source live from the BBC newsroom, our top

:12:21. > :12:23.story. At least 18 people are dead after a flyover collapsed in

:12:24. > :12:27.Calcutta in India, dozens more people are thought to be trapped

:12:28. > :12:32.under the rubble. Let us take a look at some of the stories, the BBC

:12:33. > :12:37.language services covering today. Turkish news agency says that people

:12:38. > :12:42.were killed and wounded in an explosion near the bus terminal, in

:12:43. > :12:48.the south-east of the country. BBC Turkish has more on that. More than

:12:49. > :12:52.60 years after the end of the Korean War, remains of the 36 Chinese

:12:53. > :12:57.soldiers who died fighting against South Korea have been returned home,

:12:58. > :13:03.it is seen as a sign of warming relations between the countries and

:13:04. > :13:06.BBC Chinese is covering that story. Residents have been forced to leave

:13:07. > :13:12.their homes in the mobile home park, after a large sinkhole appeared. It

:13:13. > :13:17.is 18 metres wide, and ten metres deep and it is partially filled with

:13:18. > :13:23.water. It is one of the most read stories on the BBC News application

:13:24. > :13:25.right now. Let us turn to this story, President Obama is hosting a

:13:26. > :13:33.nuclear Security summit in Washington. They will look at how to

:13:34. > :13:39.respond to the threat posed by the North Korean nuclear programme John

:13:40. > :13:41.Yang has ordered more nuclear tests. Let us look at which countries

:13:42. > :15:23.currently have nuclear arms. let us cross over to Gary who is in

:15:24. > :15:28.Washington, good to have you with us. We were just watching a little

:15:29. > :15:32.explainer talking about Russia not being involved in 2014, they're not

:15:33. > :15:38.there again. What can be achieved without one of the biggest players?

:15:39. > :15:44.It is a crucial question ready because if you think about it,

:15:45. > :15:48.Russia and the US account for something like 90% of the world's

:15:49. > :15:53.nuclear weapons, most of the fissile material around the world is sited

:15:54. > :15:58.either here in the United States or in Russia so these agreements really

:15:59. > :16:02.should have, to have any fall should have the backing of the two big

:16:03. > :16:07.nuclear powers like that. What because of the state of relations

:16:08. > :16:12.between Washington and Moscow, over the last couple of years, Vladimir

:16:13. > :16:17.Putin is not here. I think that will lead a lot of people to say to what

:16:18. > :16:22.extent can only one of the big nuclear power is actually enforce

:16:23. > :16:26.some of these agreements and the sanctions, and these deals around

:16:27. > :16:32.the world, when Russia simply isn't here? It is something that President

:16:33. > :16:38.Obama really wanted to make a mark with, the clock is ticking. What can

:16:39. > :16:48.he do do you think? Focus on North Korea? Back in 2009 he set this as

:16:49. > :16:52.one of his major foreign policy goals, nuclear de-escalation, a

:16:53. > :16:58.whole tonne proliferation. He would halt on the big deal he has got on

:16:59. > :17:04.the Iran nuclear deal, he would also tell you that around a dozen

:17:05. > :17:09.countries have handed over their stockpiles of nuclear material. But

:17:10. > :17:13.that does leave tonnes of this material around the world. People

:17:14. > :17:16.are concerned that that may fall into the hands of groups like

:17:17. > :17:20.Islamic State, they might not be able to build a weapon but they

:17:21. > :17:27.could deliver a dirty bomb, explodes this stuff in the middle of an urban

:17:28. > :17:33.environment and cause devastation. And as you say, North Korea testing

:17:34. > :17:37.a nuclear weapons, testing weapons technology, a big concern for

:17:38. > :17:41.countries like Japan and South Korea in the region. President Obama in

:17:42. > :17:45.the last few minutes, speaking to the Chinese president about what

:17:46. > :17:53.pressure China is prepared to put on North Korea to stop that programme.

:17:54. > :17:58.A major part of this summit. Thank you very much, Gary O'Donoghue

:17:59. > :18:02.speaking to us in Washington, DC. Let us turn to our business news and

:18:03. > :18:07.start with Argentina, their parliament has approved a deal, to

:18:08. > :18:10.see creditors finally repaid and make a long awaited return to

:18:11. > :18:15.international debt markets. The default made a costly for Argentina

:18:16. > :18:21.to borrow money, today is seen as a big win for the new president, and

:18:22. > :18:28.for his economic policy. Good to have you with us. So they will be

:18:29. > :18:32.able to borrow money again but they have quite a bit of money to pay

:18:33. > :18:38.before that would be allowed? How are they gain to do that? They have

:18:39. > :18:42.to pay a lot of money in order to be allowed to borrow money, it is about

:18:43. > :18:46.getting the record clean abroad. There is a date for that payment to

:18:47. > :18:52.be made, about April 14 and there is a lot of money that Argentina needs

:18:53. > :18:56.to come up with. It hopes to go back to the bond markets as soon as

:18:57. > :19:00.possible. The president says that Argentina will pay that debt by

:19:01. > :19:06.April 14 and get out of the default situation. But, it is still two

:19:07. > :19:13.weeks from now that we will see how they are edgy going to pull this

:19:14. > :19:17.off. How might this affect the average Argentinian, will they see

:19:18. > :19:23.their economy improved, or the day-to-day life improved with this

:19:24. > :19:28.new deal? This is all about getting Argentina out of its inflationary

:19:29. > :19:33.spiral, prices are going up all the time in Argentina, part of that is

:19:34. > :19:38.because every time Argentina has internal debts coming up, it needs

:19:39. > :19:45.to print more money in order to pay those debts. Now that they can go to

:19:46. > :19:50.the international market, that is a way, to not have two print money and

:19:51. > :19:53.keeping prices down in the economy. The hope is that in the medium and

:19:54. > :19:58.the long-term Argentinians are going to have more money and prices will

:19:59. > :20:03.be under control, that is one of the key problems of the Argentinian

:20:04. > :20:08.economy right now. We had President Obama down in Argentina, looking for

:20:09. > :20:11.perhaps hoping for a bit of trade when it comes to Argentina, how do

:20:12. > :20:22.you think he is doing, what are they saying about that? Externally he was

:20:23. > :20:27.an important element, the ruling said that the fact that this

:20:28. > :20:30.president was showing good faith was showing a signal that the creditors

:20:31. > :20:35.should accept a deal with the president but internally it is not

:20:36. > :20:39.that simple. He won the election by a tiny margin and he still has a lot

:20:40. > :20:43.of convincing to do in his own country. A lot of people see him

:20:44. > :20:50.with suspicious eyes and part of the country did not vote for him so

:20:51. > :20:54.there is still a long test, for Macri although he can get a deal

:20:55. > :21:01.done that might benefit Argentina in the medium-term. Thank you very much

:21:02. > :21:05.for speaking to us from Sao Paulo. France is facing a day of strikes

:21:06. > :21:09.and protests, they are over proposed reforms to the country's labour

:21:10. > :21:14.laws, at the heart of it, the government wants the end to the 35

:21:15. > :21:18.hour working week, the shortest of any European country, which it says

:21:19. > :21:28.is keeping unemployment levels at record levels. Let us hear more from

:21:29. > :21:32.Lucy Williamson in Paris. For an electric that often says it wants

:21:33. > :21:36.change, the messages can sometimes be hard to unravel. Unemployment is

:21:37. > :21:43.running at more than 10%. The economy comes top of voter concerns.

:21:44. > :21:51.But the government's proposed solution is not proving popular. In

:21:52. > :21:55.several towns across France, police fired tear gas in a bid to stop

:21:56. > :22:02.students pelting them with stones. Dozens have been arrested. The

:22:03. > :22:06.proposed reforms will make it easier for companies to negotiate over time

:22:07. > :22:10.and other terms with their employees, and make it easier for

:22:11. > :22:17.them to lay off workers in the hope of encouraging them to create more

:22:18. > :22:22.jobs. It will give us more comfort in recruiting. We need to know that

:22:23. > :22:28.we have some flexibility when workload drops. To be able to reduce

:22:29. > :22:34.staff. We have not done that yet. But it is an important issue for us.

:22:35. > :22:37.But union representatives say that lay-offs have already been

:22:38. > :22:44.happening. And that workers need more protection, not less. The

:22:45. > :22:49.reality is that it is already easy for companies to lay off their

:22:50. > :22:52.workers. Take a look at the job cuts that are passed as a conventional

:22:53. > :22:57.rupture. The number of these ruptures has gone through the roof

:22:58. > :23:00.but it was meant to be a tool for employees to leave their company. In

:23:01. > :23:03.fact is allows for companies to get rid of their workers so the small

:23:04. > :23:09.company boss already has all of the tools to cut jobs easily. Today's

:23:10. > :23:12.demonstrations were the latest in a series of protests designed to block

:23:13. > :23:15.the reforms, hundreds of thousands of thought to have marched against

:23:16. > :23:20.the bill in dozens of towns and cities. The government has already

:23:21. > :23:28.watered down some of its proposals but says it won't be forced to drop

:23:29. > :23:33.them. We've had this high unemployment level for the last 30

:23:34. > :23:37.years, it is necessary that people express their worries, some trade

:23:38. > :23:40.unions are using the right to be on strike and demonstrate and it is

:23:41. > :23:44.legitimate. It is also legitimate that the youth express their rigs

:23:45. > :23:48.are spray should, but concerning protests today, there are many

:23:49. > :23:52.different calls for protests. There is exotic array and on topics other

:23:53. > :23:57.than labour reform. There is not a united front for trade unions

:23:58. > :24:01.demonstrating today. The French president is keen to show that he

:24:02. > :24:06.can get real change before Franche chooses a real new leader, he has

:24:07. > :24:10.bad not to run unless unemployment falls. But the prospect of a

:24:11. > :24:17.healthier economy is much easier to sell than the medicine describes to

:24:18. > :24:22.get there. -- prescribed to get there. Today is a big day for the

:24:23. > :24:26.entrepreneur Elon Musk, they are unveiling them all three electric
