:00:13. > :00:21.hello, I'm Ros Atkins, welcome to outside source, in Aleppo at least
:00:22. > :00:26.45 people have been killed in the most intense bombing in months, an
:00:27. > :00:31.aid convoy has reached at least one Syrian town, the UN says getting to
:00:32. > :00:37.Aleppo is almost impossible. President Assad blames the US. I
:00:38. > :00:45.believe this is not genuine regarding the cessation of violence
:00:46. > :00:49.this year. One boat loaded with migrants has collapsed of the
:00:50. > :00:53.Egyptian coast, relief for the survivors although it is believed
:00:54. > :00:58.hundreds have died, we will have a report from the region. This looks
:00:59. > :01:04.like an important story, Yahoo has announced that 500 million of its
:01:05. > :01:08.users had information stolen in 2014 and it may have been a
:01:09. > :01:12.state-sponsored act. Safely in San Francisco is working on that. If you
:01:13. > :01:13.have questions on any of our stories, these
:01:14. > :01:44.B start with breaking news which has come to the BBC newsroom in the last
:01:45. > :01:48.few moments, saying that the Syrian army has announced the start of a
:01:49. > :01:54.new major offensive in rebel held eastern Aleppo and calls on
:01:55. > :01:57.residents to avoid rebel outposts. There have been extraordinarily
:01:58. > :02:01.heavy bombardment is in Aleppo. The Syrian army now says there will be
:02:02. > :02:07.any major offensive in this part of the city. That very much confirms
:02:08. > :02:12.what we have been saying for the last 48 hours, the ceasefire looks
:02:13. > :02:17.to be completely over. President Assad of Syria will have been the
:02:18. > :02:21.man who ordered that offensive. He has given array interview. In the
:02:22. > :02:25.last five years he's been accused of orchestrating the Indus
:02:26. > :02:30.indiscriminate bombing of civilians and the use of chemical weapons. He
:02:31. > :02:35.denies this and denies any knowledge of that attack on a UN aid convoy on
:02:36. > :02:39.Monday. He is pointing the figure at the Americans on that. The interview
:02:40. > :02:48.was conducted by the APA news agency. This is some of that.
:02:49. > :02:57.We would like to be committed to a ceasefire but it is not about silly
:02:58. > :03:03.or Russia, it's about the United States and the groups that have been
:03:04. > :03:13.affiliated to Isis. They announced publicly that they are not
:03:14. > :03:17.committed. This started in February, last February, it did not work I
:03:18. > :03:22.think because of the United States and I believe the United States is
:03:23. > :03:27.not genuine, regarding having the cessation of violence this year.
:03:28. > :03:31.There is one thing all sides can agree on, this ceasefire has just
:03:32. > :03:35.about collapsed. This is footage of the bombardment of Aleppo that I was
:03:36. > :03:40.mentioning. One of the most sustained attacks on the city for
:03:41. > :03:43.months and it is reported that 45 people have lost their lives.
:03:44. > :03:48.America's top military official has wade into this debate over who
:03:49. > :03:54.carried out the attack on that UN aid convoy on Monday. General Joseph
:03:55. > :03:58.Dunford says he has no doubt that the Russians are responsible, he
:03:59. > :04:03.just doesn't know whose aircraft dropped the bomb. He is saying that
:04:04. > :04:06.there are three air forces above Syria, the Syrian air force, the
:04:07. > :04:12.Russian air force and the US led coalition. So it was one of those
:04:13. > :04:16.three. He is saying it is not the American led coalition although he
:04:17. > :04:19.is not sure which of the other two were responsible. Syria is still top
:04:20. > :04:23.of the agenda at the United Nations as it has been all week. We can
:04:24. > :04:31.speak to Laura Trevelyan from New York. You have a guest who can help
:04:32. > :04:37.us understand how this issue is being approached? That's right, Ros,
:04:38. > :04:42.this is a spokeswoman for the Syrian opposition. Right now, we have these
:04:43. > :04:47.diplomatic talks going on in New York, John Kerry has met with
:04:48. > :04:51.Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, we are also hearing news
:04:52. > :04:59.that the Syrian military has announced this offensive in eastern
:05:00. > :05:04.Aleppo. What is your reaction. This shows that the regime is lying. You
:05:05. > :05:08.can't just have an offensive about preparing for one, without having
:05:09. > :05:12.the proper army and air coverage so you can't just come out all of a
:05:13. > :05:16.sudden and say I'm trying to advance in Aleppo. It means the regime has
:05:17. > :05:20.been preparing for weeks for this offensive and he's just buying time,
:05:21. > :05:27.relying on the Russians to give him more time to do this ground
:05:28. > :05:32.offensive. Where do you think that leaves the diplomacy? Is this US -
:05:33. > :05:37.Russia ceasefire deal dead if there is a new Syrian military offensive
:05:38. > :05:41.in rebel held eastern Aleppo? You can say this all goes back to the
:05:42. > :05:48.USA and the Americans and they are meeting and putting pressure on the
:05:49. > :05:52.other side. We talked about the grounding of the Syrian regime, that
:05:53. > :05:56.would be an important step if Woods turned to actions so we need the US
:05:57. > :06:01.leadership to come forward and pressure the Russians but so far
:06:02. > :06:06.from all the meetings at the UN today nothing came out of them.
:06:07. > :06:10.Sergey Lavrov is buying time from the United States and buying time
:06:11. > :06:14.for the regime to prepare themselves to protect Aleppo because that is
:06:15. > :06:19.all they want, to take Aleppo and advance in northern Syria. He
:06:20. > :06:23.doesn't want a truce. He doesn't want a ceasefire. Do you get the
:06:24. > :06:27.sense that people are waiting for the next US administration, the
:06:28. > :06:32.clock is ticking on the Obama administration which will leave
:06:33. > :06:37.office in January and what impact is that having on people on the ground?
:06:38. > :06:41.Secretary John Kerry has some time to work on what he called for
:06:42. > :06:45.yesterday, he requested the grounding of the Syrian regime and
:06:46. > :06:51.holding them accountable, who will now react on this offensive? We lost
:06:52. > :06:55.yesterday around 22 civilians since this morning. Who will be
:06:56. > :07:00.responsible for this? So of course we are counting on the next
:07:01. > :07:03.administration to have a proper foreign policy towards Syria but we
:07:04. > :07:07.do hope Secretary Kerry in the remaining time will use that time to
:07:08. > :07:14.work on a no-fly zone or at least the grounding of the Syrian regime.
:07:15. > :07:21.You were at the Geneva peace talks which were about a transition to a
:07:22. > :07:24.new form of government in Syria, with what you've heard about the
:07:25. > :07:29.bombing and the new offensive in eastern Aleppo, what hopes still you
:07:30. > :07:35.have of a peaceful solution? Absolutely we don't have a hope for
:07:36. > :07:39.such regime. We hope again that the USA and our friends and allies will
:07:40. > :07:42.step forward and take their responsibilities. They are the ones
:07:43. > :07:49.who worked on the political solution. The political solution was
:07:50. > :07:53.signed in Vienna with all the Syrian groups, they have to take their
:07:54. > :07:58.responsibility. We hope that peace will come to Syria but it takes two
:07:59. > :08:04.to tango. That is why we are looking for reliable partner to achieve that
:08:05. > :08:08.piece. Thank you for joining us. That is the view from this
:08:09. > :08:12.spokesperson for the Syrian opposition, she has been here all
:08:13. > :08:18.week attending all these meetings, while the fighting on the ground is
:08:19. > :08:21.apparently revived. The interesting thing listening to your guest is a
:08:22. > :08:25.tacit acknowledgement that whatever the Syrian government or the
:08:26. > :08:29.opposition once, it will be the Americans and the Russians who work
:08:30. > :08:34.this one out. -- whatever the Syrians want. Particularly the
:08:35. > :08:38.Russians because it is the Russians that have the leverage with
:08:39. > :08:43.President Assad because one year ago they started this military operation
:08:44. > :08:47.in support of Assad and he's acknowledged that it has made a
:08:48. > :08:52.difference to him, it has enabled him to solidify, even advance his
:08:53. > :08:58.position. So the question is, how involved to the Russians wish to get
:08:59. > :09:01.in, as it were, keeping President Assad in this position? Are they
:09:02. > :09:05.going to want to reach a stage where it looks like he's got the upper
:09:06. > :09:11.hand and wants to negotiate what is going on? Big power politics and
:09:12. > :09:14.that meeting going on right now the international Syria support group
:09:15. > :09:17.and we help to hear from Sergey Lavrov, the Russian Prime Minister
:09:18. > :09:21.and John Kerry when that meeting wraps up. It started about 40
:09:22. > :09:27.minutes ago. Thank you for all your reporting this week from the United
:09:28. > :09:31.Nations. We started by looking at what is happening in Syria and in
:09:32. > :09:36.New York. Now a devastating story off the coast of Egypt. A boat full
:09:37. > :09:42.of migrants trying to reach Europe has capsized. We understand it was
:09:43. > :09:47.12 kilometres out to sea. We know that rescuers have operated out of
:09:48. > :09:51.Rosetta, Egypt, and survivors have told the BBC there were about 550
:09:52. > :10:03.people on board and hundreds of people are feared drowned. Hard to
:10:04. > :10:06.confirm those numbers that all Geron the BBC has tried to find out what
:10:07. > :10:22.happened. Reclaimed from the sea,
:10:23. > :10:24.survivors of the latest tragedy Saved by the Egyptian military,
:10:25. > :10:28.but taken into police custody. Some overwhelmed by exhaustion,
:10:29. > :10:30.after up to 8 hours treading water, Most were young Egyptians from poor
:10:31. > :10:35.communities, who told us they wanted They said more than 550 people
:10:36. > :10:46.were crammed onto the boat. It was very small,
:10:47. > :10:48.said Ahmed, who's 17. Before we capsized,
:10:49. > :10:58.half the crew got away. Mohammed survived, but without his
:10:59. > :11:06.cousin, who was just 14. TRANSLATION: May God have
:11:07. > :11:08.mercy on him and all I was going to die,
:11:09. > :11:24.but God helped me. Outside the police station,
:11:25. > :11:37.anguish and anger. Some relatives complained
:11:38. > :11:38.the authorities took hours to respond to distress signals
:11:39. > :11:41.from the sinking boat. But then, what they'd
:11:42. > :11:47.all been waiting for. The survivors are emerging now,
:11:48. > :11:51.they've spent the night in custody. They're being reunited
:11:52. > :11:53.with their families. Many of the relatives have been
:11:54. > :11:56.maintaining a vigil here right through the night,
:11:57. > :11:59.hoping against hope to get news Hoping that they were
:12:00. > :12:11.not among the dead. This ten-year-old was carried out.
:12:12. > :12:17.He set sail with his teenage cousins. They survived but his
:12:18. > :12:30.eight-year old brother did not. He has barely spoken since he was
:12:31. > :12:40.rescued. And this father, beyond words in his grave. Ahmed had just
:12:41. > :12:47.found out his 16-year-old son is no longer among the living. One more
:12:48. > :12:54.young man who died trying for a better life. Orla Guerin, BBC News,
:12:55. > :13:04.Rosetta, Egypt. You can find that report with
:13:05. > :13:11.further information on the migrant crisis online now.
:13:12. > :13:19.We will go back to North Carolina where there is a state of emergency
:13:20. > :13:22.in Charlotte, a second night of violence, demonstrators throwing
:13:23. > :13:27.rocks at the police and the police in turn using standard grades. 44
:13:28. > :13:33.people were arrested and one person is in hospital, police say that
:13:34. > :13:37.person was shot by a protester. This is a message from the governor of
:13:38. > :13:40.North Carolina saying he has declared a state of emergency and
:13:41. > :13:46.turned to the National Guard and Highway Patrol to assist with law
:13:47. > :13:51.enforcement. We've heard from the mayor of the city. This is a clip of
:13:52. > :13:57.what she has been saying. The safety and security of our community and
:13:58. > :14:02.our law enforcement officers remains our top priority. Today our city is
:14:03. > :14:09.open for business as usual and we let people come to our town, we are
:14:10. > :14:16.here working, buses are running, we are here to serve in the city is
:14:17. > :14:20.open. There's began with the police shooting dead Keith Lamont Scott,
:14:21. > :14:29.the third black person to be shot dead this week by an American police
:14:30. > :14:31.officer. The first was in Ohio, 113-year-old was shot after
:14:32. > :14:38.allegedly pulling an air gun from his waistband steering arrest-1
:14:39. > :14:46.13-year-old. There was also a story from Tulsa in Oklahoma, a motorist
:14:47. > :14:52.was shot and his sister has been talking to the BBC's world Have Your
:14:53. > :14:59.Say programme. This is some of the interview. It was very disturbing to
:15:00. > :15:05.hear the audio of the helicopter police, people that we pay to
:15:06. > :15:10.protect and serve us, to prejudge my brother and say, he looks like a big
:15:11. > :15:17.bed man, he just wasn't given a chance. He wasn't armed, -- big bad
:15:18. > :15:22.man. He wasn't doing anything criminal, no weapons in the vehicle.
:15:23. > :15:27.They approached him like he was bad. I am just heartbroken, I am
:15:28. > :15:32.heartbroken. All three incidents will be investigated by the police.
:15:33. > :15:37.One last thing, this is a project by the Guardian. It has begun
:15:38. > :15:43.documenting every person killed by the police in America. So far this
:15:44. > :15:49.year that has come to 790 people. To break them down by race 194 of those
:15:50. > :15:55.people were black. That's 25% of those who died, 13% of America's
:15:56. > :15:59.population is black so clearly the number of Black deaths is
:16:00. > :16:03.disproportionately high. Get full details of those who have died and
:16:04. > :16:10.who they were through the Guardian's website. In a while we will be live
:16:11. > :16:15.in San Francisco to update you on an important story. Yahoo says 500
:16:16. > :16:21.million of its users, many of them watching now, will have had
:16:22. > :16:26.information stolen in 2014. Dave legal map will tell us what was
:16:27. > :16:33.stolen and who might have done it- Dave legal map.
:16:34. > :16:39.100 days until Hull becomes city of culture, the artistic programme has
:16:40. > :16:52.been unveiled and the organiser of the event is Martin Green.
:16:53. > :17:02.It's called made in Halle, we've got an installation piece which is about
:17:03. > :17:08.the past of the city and also performances by Woody Woodman C and
:17:09. > :17:12.Tony Visconti from the Spiders from Mars, a new exhibition about the
:17:13. > :17:15.work of transmissions from this city, many stories that hopefully
:17:16. > :17:20.will bring it alive to people who might not have considered the city
:17:21. > :17:22.before. This is a 365 day programme and we'll have something on every
:17:23. > :17:44.day for 365 days. Welcome back, this is Outside
:17:45. > :17:49.Source, a rebel held convoy has reached the first outside area of
:17:50. > :17:56.Damascus, the first aid convoy since the ceasefire stopped and the
:17:57. > :18:03.bombardment stopped the convoy reaching Aleppo. In Yemen Saudi led
:18:04. > :18:09.air strikes killed 20 civilians in the rebel held city yesterday. We
:18:10. > :18:13.reported from there, the city is cut off from aid supplies and people are
:18:14. > :18:19.dying from money division. Australian authorities have cast
:18:20. > :18:23.doubt on the theory that the missing flight from Rosie might have had a
:18:24. > :18:27.fire on board before it went missing. If you look at the most red
:18:28. > :18:34.list on the BBC website a new Disney film has drawn accolades and
:18:35. > :18:37.criticisms. The accolades of the focus on Polynesian culture, yet
:18:38. > :18:47.critics say it is cultural appropriation.
:18:48. > :18:53.confirmed that hackers stole information from 500 million users
:18:54. > :18:59.in 2014. It has been suggested that a state rather than a hacking group
:19:00. > :19:05.is involved. Dave Lee is working on the story from San Francisco. Dave,
:19:06. > :19:10.what kind of information was taken? Yahoo says it thinks a lot of
:19:11. > :19:14.personal information was taken, names, addresses, dates of birth,
:19:15. > :19:19.also security questions and answers like what is your mother 's maiden
:19:20. > :19:23.name, that's been taken. Passwords were stolen although they have been
:19:24. > :19:31.encrypted so that should be OK. And payment data like credit cards, but
:19:32. > :19:34.has not been taken. The nature of some of the information is not as
:19:35. > :19:41.drastic as it could be although the size of the bridge is troubling. Why
:19:42. > :19:45.didn't they tell us two days ago? They say that they did not know two
:19:46. > :19:50.years ago. They've been looking into this for some time. They said a
:19:51. > :19:55.journalist came to Yahoo and said they had seen the information being
:19:56. > :20:04.sold on the dark web. That's shady part of the Internet where many
:20:05. > :20:08.deals are done. It all became public in August this year when that story
:20:09. > :20:13.broke and it has taken until today for Yahoo to confirm the extent of
:20:14. > :20:16.the bridge, they were at first said it was 200 million users and now
:20:17. > :20:24.they have confirmed it is 500 million users. I've just spoken to a
:20:25. > :20:28.company that bought Yahoo for a massive deal in July and they said
:20:29. > :20:32.they've only heard about the breach in the last two days. So you do
:20:33. > :20:37.wonder what impact that might have upon the purchase of Yahoo. People
:20:38. > :20:42.will be watching in the UK who have accounts with Yahoo, watch and they
:20:43. > :20:48.do? The usual advice, we've heard it so often, change your passwords, and
:20:49. > :20:52.be vigilant for any suspicious e-mails that may appear to be from
:20:53. > :20:57.Yahoo or indeed from anyone because they might be trying to get more
:20:58. > :21:03.information from you. The main thing is, change your passwords. Thank
:21:04. > :21:07.you, Dave, live from San Francisco. Back to the business coverage. We
:21:08. > :21:11.have talked many times about the efforts to make a new trade deal
:21:12. > :21:15.between the European Union and the US. At called a transatlantic trade
:21:16. > :21:24.and investment partnership. Not very snappy. People call it TTIP. Last
:21:25. > :21:28.month Germany's economic adviser said the process had failed and
:21:29. > :21:32.nobody is admitting it. One more push is going on in Bratislava in
:21:33. > :21:39.Slovakia and Rob Cameron from the BBC is there.
:21:40. > :21:45.TTIP the deal with the US has been described as deadlocked, moribund,
:21:46. > :21:49.that isn't just the media, these are words from the very highest
:21:50. > :21:54.officials in Europe, especially in Germany and France. We are expecting
:21:55. > :21:58.the French Trade Minister to table a motion for TTIP to be formally
:21:59. > :22:04.paused in Bratislava. Will that happen? We'll have to wait and see.
:22:05. > :22:09.This time last week I was in Bratislava with Outside Source, and
:22:10. > :22:13.one big question was when the UK would trigger Article 50 and begin
:22:14. > :22:18.the process of leaving the European Union. Boris Johnson, the UK Foreign
:22:19. > :22:22.Secretary, has had this to say today. We are talking to our
:22:23. > :22:26.European friends and partners in the expectation that by the early part
:22:27. > :22:32.of next year you will see an Article 50 letter. This echoes what Donald
:22:33. > :22:36.Tusk, the president of the European Council, said, that Theresa May and
:22:37. > :22:40.intimated that this would be their favourite time to trigger Article
:22:41. > :22:47.50. It doesn't mean that it will happen, although this is where the
:22:48. > :22:53.mood music is at the moment. If I say Tim Horton 's, many of you may
:22:54. > :22:58.well have blank faces, but not in Canada, it is part restaurant chain,
:22:59. > :23:04.part Canadian institution, pot coffee and doughnut specialist and
:23:05. > :23:08.it's coming to the UK. If this clip we are about to see has anything to
:23:09. > :23:30.go by, we all have some learning to do!
:23:31. > :23:51.Tim who? Horton? I haven't. I recognise the name. Isn't that food?
:23:52. > :23:53.Is it? I don't know. I have no idea, I don't know. I'm assuming it's some
:23:54. > :24:13.kind of Coffey shot? Know, I've no idea. Yes, Tim Hortons
:24:14. > :24:17.doughnut things, yes. Samir Hussein joins us live from New York, as a
:24:18. > :24:23.Canadian you are perfectly positioned to explain to the rest of
:24:24. > :24:28.us what makes TTIP so special to all of you? Not only that, I could
:24:29. > :24:33.answer any of those questions, I could tell you what a double double
:24:34. > :24:38.is! I have had a double double but for me it is a bit too much cream
