:00:09. > :00:11.Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

:00:12. > :00:13.In Haiti, rescue workers are struggling to reach the areas

:00:14. > :00:39.There is a stark warning from the UN on Syria. The city of Aleppo, this

:00:40. > :00:41.rate, could be totally destroyed. Thousands of Syrian civilians, not

:00:42. > :00:44.terrorists, will be killed. Yesterday we told you that

:00:45. > :00:47.Antonio Guterres was on track to be the next UN Secretary General -

:00:48. > :00:55.today it's been confirmed. We will hear what he has been

:00:56. > :01:00.saying. We will also talk about the battle to become the next leader of

:01:01. > :01:05.the United Kingdom Independence Party. The leadership favourite,

:01:06. > :01:10.Steven Woolfe, has been taken to hospital in Strasbourg after an

:01:11. > :01:16.altercation at a party meeting. We are live in the studio, if you have

:01:17. > :01:20.any questions on the stories we are covering, you will see the hashtag,

:01:21. > :01:33.e-mail address and contacts on social media.

:01:34. > :01:41.Let me bring you the latest on hurricane Matthew. Over 100 people

:01:42. > :01:46.have been killed in Haiti. Thousands more have been displaced. The extent

:01:47. > :01:49.of the destruction is only now becoming clear. Here are some of the

:01:50. > :01:55.pictures that have come in today from the south-west of Haiti. These

:01:56. > :02:00.show you clearly the extent of the destruction. Entire towns have been

:02:01. > :02:17.flattened. This is a place called Jeremie. This main road goes to the

:02:18. > :02:21.capital, Port-au-Prince. This picture was taken before the storm.

:02:22. > :02:27.This is a very similar picture, taken after. You can see that the

:02:28. > :02:32.bridge is completely gone. That means that locals are having to do

:02:33. > :02:36.things like wading through water to get from one side of the river to

:02:37. > :02:41.the other. No road means there is much harder to get aid to people

:02:42. > :02:48.that desperately need it. A lot of different aid agencies are involved

:02:49. > :02:53.in getting help it to Haiti. One of them is World Vision Usa. It has

:02:54. > :02:58.been sharing images of what it has been coming up against. The damage

:02:59. > :03:03.to the road makes it completely unusable. After Haiti, the storm

:03:04. > :03:11.headed to the Bahamas. It has very much arrived. Wind speeds have been

:03:12. > :03:14.recorded at 200 kilometres. See traffic has been halted,

:03:15. > :03:17.understandably. People are urged to move to higher ground, but the

:03:18. > :03:23.problem with the Bahamas is there is not much high ground to head for.

:03:24. > :03:27.Next in line, after the Bahamas, it's Florida. This is the message

:03:28. > :03:31.from the State governor. Are you willing to take a chance to risk

:03:32. > :03:35.your life? Are you willing to take a gamble? That is what you're doing.

:03:36. > :03:40.If you are reluctant to evacuate, think of all of the people the storm

:03:41. > :03:44.has already killed. You and your family could be among these numbers

:03:45. > :03:50.if you do not take this seriously. We will keep you up-to-date with the

:03:51. > :03:52.situation. Next, we want to turn to a stark warning from the United

:03:53. > :03:59.Nations. The parts of Aleppo held by rebels

:04:00. > :04:14.could be totally destroyed That is a map of the whole country,

:04:15. > :04:18.this is a map of Aleppo. The areas marked in purple are controlled by

:04:19. > :04:22.rebels. It is primarily the east of the country. The UN is assessing

:04:23. > :04:25.that to do and 75,000 civilians are trapped there.

:04:26. > :04:29.Staffan de Mistura is the UN envoy for Syria.

:04:30. > :04:34.Who says the areas being attacked because that is where fighters from

:04:35. > :04:41.the group formerly known as the Al-Nusra Front are. He sent this

:04:42. > :04:51.message to the jihadists. Can you please look at my eyes? Those of the

:04:52. > :05:03.Aleppo people, of the 275,000 civilians that are where you are, I

:05:04. > :05:08.can confidently tell this 275,000 people that you're going to stay

:05:09. > :05:16.there and that he remained there, and keep hostage, the refusal to

:05:17. > :05:24.leave the city, because 1000 of you are deciding on the destiny of

:05:25. > :05:33.275,000 civilians. I would like you to reply to this question, not to

:05:34. > :05:45.be, but to those 275,000 people. If you do decide to leave, indignity,

:05:46. > :05:50.and with your weapons, to a place you wanted to go, I am ready to

:05:51. > :05:59.personally accompany you. It is a marked change of tactics. He wants

:06:00. > :06:03.to live Iraq -- I want to get the opinion of Lyse Doucet. He has

:06:04. > :06:08.thought this through, there is a blistering attack on East Aleppo, so

:06:09. > :06:11.blistering it could be dead in two and half months. Russia and

:06:12. > :06:16.President Assad's Ardie Savea reason they are doing this is because there

:06:17. > :06:22.are terrorists there, mostly 1000 he mentioned from the Al-Nusra Front.

:06:23. > :06:27.It almost calling their bluff, please leave, the bombing will stop.

:06:28. > :06:31.Nobody believes that Al-Nusra Front, one of the strongest fighting forces

:06:32. > :06:35.around Aleppo, is going to stop, or the bombing will stop. Is it the

:06:36. > :06:42.case that all of the rebels in this part of Aleppo are from the Al-Nusra

:06:43. > :06:46.Front? No, the figures were about 8000 copies had. They are constantly

:06:47. > :06:51.shifting. At one point there were 50 different groups. A thousand

:06:52. > :06:55.fighters, 900 or 1000 belong to the group that used to be called the

:06:56. > :06:59.Al-Nusra Front. They recently said they are no longer linked to

:07:00. > :07:03.Al-Qaeda and changed their name. A lot of people do not believe they

:07:04. > :07:08.have completely severed their legs to Al-Qaeda, a group under UN

:07:09. > :07:13.sanctions. He is now saying, you are the problem, because the solution.

:07:14. > :07:17.There is a risk that he seems to be blaming those fighting the Syrian

:07:18. > :07:21.government, rather than those carrying out the bombing? That is

:07:22. > :07:26.what people who support the opposition are saying. Why are you

:07:27. > :07:30.blaming that group? The Syrian army and Russian aeroplanes are bombing

:07:31. > :07:33.hospitals, schools and civilians. He gave the figure that to murder

:07:34. > :07:40.children died at the last week. These are not terrorists being

:07:41. > :07:45.killed. If it was so easy to take out one part of the cancer, people

:07:46. > :07:49.would have done it along time ago. The bombing is targeting much more

:07:50. > :07:54.than the Al-Nusra Front. I get the impression that the only person that

:07:55. > :07:58.controls the future of Aleppo is Vladimir Putin? It is very easy to

:07:59. > :08:02.say that what Russia says, the Syrian army does, it does not work

:08:03. > :08:05.that way. I think they have made treaties to President Assad

:08:06. > :08:10.directly, but he does not want to step down, he does not want to go to

:08:11. > :08:14.Moscow. He does not see anything in this war except military solutions.

:08:15. > :08:19.He told English television today that he will fight until all of the

:08:20. > :08:24.terrorists, as he calls them, are gone from Aleppo, the only way

:08:25. > :08:26.forward he sees is local deals they have made, which amount to

:08:27. > :08:31.surrenders in other parts of the country, they worked and they think

:08:32. > :08:39.it could work in Aleppo. The cost in Aleppo will be enormous, a stain on

:08:40. > :08:43.the entire world. The recent ceasefire was broken primarily by

:08:44. > :08:47.the Russians and Americans, it collapsed. Diplomatic efforts

:08:48. > :08:50.continue. Here is the French Foreign Minister describing what he is

:08:51. > :08:54.calling a diplomatic mobilisation. He says I will be in Moscow and

:08:55. > :09:03.Washington this week. He is looking for a new deal that France can take

:09:04. > :09:07.to the UN. Here is the Russian view. TRANSLATION: Russia and the

:09:08. > :09:11.government of the Syrian Arab Republic are ready to fulfil their

:09:12. > :09:16.part of the agreements. It includes a ceasefire that was announced, but

:09:17. > :09:21.violated by illegal military groups. It also includes humanitarian access

:09:22. > :09:28.to the road, in full accordance with Russian and US documents. One of the

:09:29. > :09:32.things that the new UN Secretary General is going to be worried

:09:33. > :09:36.This time yesterday, we broke the news that the former

:09:37. > :09:39.Prime minister of Portugal Antonio Guterresh was almost certain to be

:09:40. > :09:41.the next secretary-general of the United Nations.

:09:42. > :09:43.He's closer still now - after the unanimous support

:09:44. > :10:01.To describe what I feel at the present moment, two words are

:10:02. > :10:04.sufficient. Gratitude and humility. Gratitude, first of all, in relation

:10:05. > :10:08.to the members of the Security Council for the confidence they have

:10:09. > :10:14.expressed. But also to the General Assembly and to all member states

:10:15. > :10:18.for having decided and exemplary process of transparency and

:10:19. > :10:34.openness. These are some other reasons why is qualified for the

:10:35. > :10:39.job. He held a post for six years as the President of the Socialist

:10:40. > :10:44.International Group, and he spent a decade as the United Nations High

:10:45. > :10:46.Commission on refugees. For those reasons, the United Nations Security

:10:47. > :10:54.Council, the members, have decided he is the man to succeed Ban

:10:55. > :10:59.Ki-moon. Later we will turn to Poland, there have been huge

:11:00. > :11:02.protests against a planned complete ban on abortion. Parliament has

:11:03. > :11:04.listened and gone back against the proposed bill that caused the

:11:05. > :11:21.protests in the first place. Jeremy Corbyn has begun severing a

:11:22. > :11:25.new front bench team. It follows his promise to unite the party. He made

:11:26. > :11:33.a series of announcements, including a promotion for Diane Abbott,

:11:34. > :11:39.becoming me Shadow Home Secretary. The former Validity loss, Shami

:11:40. > :11:46.Chakrabarti, who took up a place in the House of Lords recently, becomes

:11:47. > :11:52.Shadow Attorney General. Her peerage was controversial, it came shortly

:11:53. > :11:57.after she headed a review concluding that Labour was not overrun by

:11:58. > :12:06.anti-Semitism, Islamophobia or other forms of racism. Nick Brown is the

:12:07. > :12:07.shadow Chief Whip, a long-time ally of Gordon Brown. He also served

:12:08. > :12:23.under Tony Blair. This is Outside Source. The lead

:12:24. > :12:29.story comes from Haiti, where hurricane Matthew has left a trail

:12:30. > :12:32.of devastation. Over 100 people are so far known to have died. We can

:12:33. > :12:38.bring you some of the main stories from BBC World Service. BBC Turkish

:12:39. > :12:43.is reporting five people have been injured in a bomb attack targeting a

:12:44. > :12:47.police station in Istanbul. Nine Australians, some of whom you can

:12:48. > :12:50.see there, arrested at the relation Formula 1 Grand Prix for stripping

:12:51. > :12:54.down to swimming trunks have walked out of court. There were charged

:12:55. > :12:58.with causing a public nuisance. It comes with a fine, not a jail term,

:12:59. > :13:01.but it is not clear how much has been paid. The group expressed deep

:13:02. > :13:04.regret. The Norwegian prime minister

:13:05. > :13:07.has been caught playing Pokemon Go during a debate

:13:08. > :13:09.in Norway's parliament. Evidently the game's popular among

:13:10. > :13:11.Norwegian politicians - The leader of Norway's Liberal party

:13:12. > :13:13.was seen playing during a meeting on national

:13:14. > :13:22.security back in August. Earlier this week these protests

:13:23. > :13:28.were happening in Poland. They were against a bill

:13:29. > :13:32.for a near-total ban on abortion. Today Poland's parliament

:13:33. > :13:36.has rejected it. The scale of the demonstrations

:13:37. > :13:38.appear to have swayed One minister said they "caused us

:13:39. > :13:48.to think and taught us humility" and insisted "Abortion

:13:49. > :13:50.will certainly not be banned when the woman is the victim of rape

:13:51. > :13:54.or if her life or her health Robert Mugabe has opened

:13:55. > :13:58.the new session of Zimbabwe's There's particular attention

:13:59. > :14:15.on this because of a wave Arriving for the opening of

:14:16. > :14:19.Parliament with his wife, Grace, by his side. Robert Mugabe, showing no

:14:20. > :14:23.signs of slowing down. The 92-year-old has been in power for

:14:24. > :14:30.more than three decades. But his country is in trouble. Zimbabwe's

:14:31. > :14:35.economy is imploding. The country is running out of cash. Even a simple

:14:36. > :14:40.task of withdrawing money from the bank takes hours. It is estimated

:14:41. > :14:53.85% of the population is unemployed. The majority relies on street trade

:14:54. > :14:57.to eke out a living. These vendors sleep on the street, too poor to

:14:58. > :15:01.make the trip home. For millions, life in Zimbabwe is too hard to

:15:02. > :15:06.endure. In full view of the border, these young men illegally cross the

:15:07. > :15:14.river into South Africa in search of jobs. It is estimated that between

:15:15. > :15:28.three and 6 million Zimbabweans now live in Zimbabwe. There is no job,

:15:29. > :15:32.no food. No job, and now people are beating us. Desperation has forced

:15:33. > :15:38.millions of Zimbabweans to cross the border by any means. This has been

:15:39. > :15:42.happening for many years. But with the current situation in Zimbabwe,

:15:43. > :15:46.the numbers could increase. The deepening poverty appears to have

:15:47. > :15:51.united many, demanding economic reforms and an end to government

:15:52. > :15:56.corruption. The economy is not functioning. People are losing jobs.

:15:57. > :15:58.If you are selling goods in manufacturing, you stop

:15:59. > :16:08.manufacturing because nobody is buying your guts. It is a downward

:16:09. > :16:12.spiral. Robert Mugabe must go! For the first time in a decade, they

:16:13. > :16:16.have taken to the streets to voice their discontent. The most vocal are

:16:17. > :16:21.consistently and violently shut down. This man told the BBC how he

:16:22. > :16:28.was electrocuted and left for dead. TRANSLATION: They gave me a electric

:16:29. > :16:31.shocks and kept beating me until my body was numb. They thought I was

:16:32. > :16:36.dead, they left me at the side of the road and drove away. The

:16:37. > :16:42.government has denied any overuse of force. This is unwarranted

:16:43. > :16:46.provocation. I am so proud of the police, exercising restraint on all

:16:47. > :16:51.occasions. They have never used excessive force. They have used

:16:52. > :16:55.appropriate force. Anti-government protests look set to continue ahead

:16:56. > :17:01.of the 2018 elections in which President Mugabe seeks his eighth

:17:02. > :17:06.term in office. For now, Zimbabweans will find what ever means they can

:17:07. > :17:11.to make a living, despite the ailing economy.

:17:12. > :17:19.Already, we have heard stories from Zimbabwe, Poland, the UK, Haiti and

:17:20. > :17:23.Syria. Next, business. We will talk about the website 4chan. Some of you

:17:24. > :17:29.may use it. You can post anonymously about whatever you like, really.

:17:30. > :17:33.Really, anything goes. It is hugely popular. It has about 27 million

:17:34. > :17:38.users. But it is in financial trouble. Here is its owner, saying

:17:39. > :17:45.advert revenue is getting worse and costs are getting high because of

:17:46. > :17:49.more users. When I first saw the story, I will surprise that 4chan

:17:50. > :17:53.was ever making money, it has never been in the mainstream of Web

:17:54. > :18:00.culture, it has always chosen to operate if not in the shadows, the

:18:01. > :18:05.periphery of the web? But there is a cost in running the site, the cost

:18:06. > :18:11.of service, maintaining the site, the fees associated with that. It

:18:12. > :18:16.really had to find their way to make money. The wait was doing that was

:18:17. > :18:22.adverts. The problem with adverts on 4chan is that a lot of people have

:18:23. > :18:26.pop-up blockers. They're not getting that much money, especially when you

:18:27. > :18:30.factor in all of those other costs associated with it. They are not

:18:31. > :18:36.making enough money to actually make it a viable option. What is the

:18:37. > :18:42.plan? Well, the plan is to perhaps see if it can find other ways of

:18:43. > :18:51.funding itself. One person that has already expressed some interest in

:18:52. > :18:55.helping out is Martin Chip -- and man you might not remember, the man

:18:56. > :19:04.who owned the pharmaceutical company that raised the price by

:19:05. > :19:09.astronomical amounts. He is gaining fame by taking an the role of being

:19:10. > :19:14.the most hated man in America, Martin Shkreli. Recently he had a

:19:15. > :19:17.campaign saying you could punch him in the face a campaign saying you

:19:18. > :19:24.could punch him in the face of you donated money. This is another

:19:25. > :19:27.option for him, trying to be a backer for 4chan. People are not

:19:28. > :19:32.sure if it is a publicity stunt or not.

:19:33. > :19:34.The BBC has seen an independent report on the possible expansion

:19:35. > :19:37.of Heathrow airport - and it finds that a third runway

:19:38. > :19:42.could be built without breaking European pollution laws.

:19:43. > :19:44.The British Government is in the process of deciding

:19:45. > :19:46.whether to expand Heathrow or instead to expand

:19:47. > :20:12.Pollution is one of the key reasons people oppose a bigger Heathrow. The

:20:13. > :20:15.air near the airport already breaks EU law in some places, campaigners

:20:16. > :20:24.fear a new runway would make it worse. This new research, funded by

:20:25. > :20:29.an impartial council with no link to the airport or government, suggests

:20:30. > :20:32.that expansion will not mean breaking official European health

:20:33. > :20:36.laws. This is one of the units we built for the study. You can see the

:20:37. > :20:42.sensors measuring the particles and gases. We expect there to be a

:20:43. > :20:45.marginal increase in the amount of nitrogen dioxide coming from the

:20:46. > :20:50.airport itself. But that would be against a background of a very much

:20:51. > :20:59.reduced nitrogen dioxide from the other general traffic flow, because

:21:00. > :21:04.of the transition to new engines, electrifying the fleet. The study

:21:05. > :21:08.says it comes down to cars, lorries and buses, not aeroplanes, because

:21:09. > :21:13.that is where the bulk of the poisonous nitrogen dioxide gas comes

:21:14. > :21:18.from around Heathrow. It predicts that by 2030, when a runway could be

:21:19. > :21:22.built, vehicle engines will be so much cleaner that they will actually

:21:23. > :21:27.cut pollution. Opponents call it wishful thinking. We should be very

:21:28. > :21:29.cautious about research anticipating dramatic improvements in vehicle

:21:30. > :21:34.efficiency. We have been here before. The last time we had a

:21:35. > :21:40.the models told us everything would the models told us everything would

:21:41. > :21:44.be sorted by now, it has not come to pass. After years of sweeping the

:21:45. > :21:51.decision under the carpet, ministers are about to announce whether to

:21:52. > :21:52.enlarge Heathrow or Gatwick. Whatever they pick, opponents will

:21:53. > :22:03.not take it lying down. I want to come back to the lead

:22:04. > :22:08.story, the impact of Hurricane Matthew. The death toll in Haiti has

:22:09. > :22:13.passed 100. We were showing your pictures of a town called Jeremie.

:22:14. > :22:18.More copy has come in on that particular town. This is from AFP,

:22:19. > :22:29.telling us it has experienced complete destruction when it was hit

:22:30. > :22:32.by hurricane Matthew. In the meantime, I want to turn to Florida,

:22:33. > :22:41.bracing itself for Hurricane Matthew. Let's go live to Melbourne.

:22:42. > :22:50.Thanks for joining us. Bring us up to date on the preparations for the

:22:51. > :22:55.storm. People are taking the warnings of the hurricane very

:22:56. > :23:03.seriously. There are a evacuation orders in place from Florida all the

:23:04. > :23:06.way to Carolina, people being ordered to have mandatory

:23:07. > :23:10.evacuations. It will be the largest evacuation in Florida's history.

:23:11. > :23:14.Along the beaches, that is where the mandatory evacuations are. Within

:23:15. > :23:18.the next couple of hours, there will be shutting down the bridges that go

:23:19. > :23:21.between the beaches and the mainland, because it will become too

:23:22. > :23:25.dangerous for vehicles to be travelling back and forth. The wind

:23:26. > :23:31.is starting to pick up, we are starting to get the outer bands of

:23:32. > :23:34.Hurricane Matthew. Those that did not evacuate have been boarding up

:23:35. > :23:39.their homes, spent the day stocking up on supplies. As we get into the

:23:40. > :23:45.night, with the storm expected to hit, they are telling people to stay

:23:46. > :23:49.in their homes. With this many people on the move, does the federal

:23:50. > :23:55.government offer them somewhere to go, or do they just have to find

:23:56. > :23:59.relatives and friends? There are going to relatives and friends. A

:24:00. > :24:03.lot of people are heading over to Florida's West Coast. That is not in

:24:04. > :24:07.the impact zone. We learned earlier today that all of hotels in

:24:08. > :24:11.Southwest Florida are now sold out. We know a lot of people are trying

:24:12. > :24:15.to head north to get to other areas of safety, stay with friends or

:24:16. > :24:19.family, try to find hotels that have vacancies. Many of the hotels,

:24:20. > :24:25.especially along the coast, they are telling people to evacuate. Those

:24:26. > :24:29.people are having to scramble and find a place to stay. How much time

:24:30. > :24:34.do we think we have before the storm really hits? Last we saw, it is

:24:35. > :24:38.expected to hit a late tonight. Maybe around midnight. We are

:24:39. > :24:43.already starting to feel some of the impact, the outer bands are starting

:24:44. > :24:46.to hit, the wind is picking up. We have already experienced heavy rain

:24:47. > :24:50.and it is only going to get worse through the evening. In terms of the

:24:51. > :24:54.areas being evacuated, presumably some people will stay to look after

:24:55. > :25:02.the buildings and people who decide to remain? They will, there are some

:25:03. > :25:06.people, you know, this is an area prone to storms. I grew up in the

:25:07. > :25:11.next town over, I know that Floridians tend to be hardened to

:25:12. > :25:14.this kind of thing. Many people stay behind and say they think they will

:25:15. > :25:19.be all right, but there is a major warning. The governor of Florida

:25:20. > :25:23.said today, evacuate, evacuate, evacuate. That is his message,

:25:24. > :25:26.because the storm will kill people, he said. He has given a very

:25:27. > :25:30.strongly worded message to people that they need to get out, even if

:25:31. > :25:33.they live in a building they might want to protect, especially along

:25:34. > :25:35.the beaches, they are telling people to leave. With the bridges being

:25:36. > :25:49.shut down, if there is an emergency,

:25:50. > :25:52.related to the storm or not, emergency services may not be able

:25:53. > :25:55.to get to them and they may not be able to get the help they need. I

:25:56. > :25:57.always appreciate you coming on, thank you very much. Do stay with

:25:58. > :26:08.us. We have another hour of international news coming up.

:26:09. > :26:13.If you have been watching the news, you will have heard about the
