:00:14. > :00:19.Welcome to Outside Source. This is our lead story. Donald Trump has
:00:20. > :00:26.been furiously to eating today, saying it's so nice that the
:00:27. > :00:31.shackles have been taken off. That week is aimed at the Republicans,
:00:32. > :00:34.the party he represents. This election campaign is getting
:00:35. > :00:37.stranger and stranger. Katty Kay will be live from Washington in a
:00:38. > :00:42.moment. We will also hear from a journalist who has been to the areas
:00:43. > :00:45.in Haiti worst affected by hurricane Matthew. The president is now
:00:46. > :00:49.warning that disease and famine they follow. Samsung's shares have
:00:50. > :00:53.plunged. The Galaxy Note 7 smartphone is being scrapped.
:00:54. > :00:58.Vladimir Putin has pulled the plug on meeting Francois Hollande. Again,
:00:59. > :01:04.no surprise. France is suggesting that Russia may have committed war
:01:05. > :01:08.crimes in Aleppo. We will show the latest pictures from the city. And a
:01:09. > :01:12.few questions -- if you have questions on any of the stories we
:01:13. > :01:17.are covering, I am surrounded by people who know as much as anyone
:01:18. > :01:20.else about the big stories today. You can tweet or get me on social
:01:21. > :01:38.media and we have an e-mail address as well.
:01:39. > :01:43.The US presidential election is only weeks ago and we now have this
:01:44. > :01:47.unbelievable situation where the Republican Party and its own nominee
:01:48. > :01:52.are openly fighting each other. In the red corner, we have Paul Ryan,
:01:53. > :01:56.the most senior elected Republican. He says he will no longer campaign
:01:57. > :02:00.for Donald Trump. In the other red corner is Mr Trump himself, a man
:02:01. > :02:06.armed with a Twitter account, and he is not afraid to use it. He has been
:02:07. > :02:16.tweeting furiously, starting by saying:
:02:17. > :02:22.the part about winning the second debate is not in any way true, by
:02:23. > :02:31.the way. Then he widened his target and said...
:02:32. > :02:37.Some fighting talk. Last but not least, he took on Senator John
:02:38. > :02:43.McCain, one of the most revered figures in the Republican Party, and
:02:44. > :02:47.called him foul mouthed, which may be a case of the pot calling the
:02:48. > :02:51.kettle back. Let's bring in Katty Kay in Washington, DC. Dear me, I am
:02:52. > :02:57.losing track of this. How did we get here? Well, we ought to have a
:02:58. > :03:02.picture at this stage, four weeks before Americans go to the polls, of
:03:03. > :03:06.Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton at the start of your programme. But
:03:07. > :03:10.actually, we have Donald Trump and his own party. This is a crazy way
:03:11. > :03:14.for Donald Trump to be conducting this campaign. There is not long to
:03:15. > :03:18.go. Americans are making up their minds, and he is openly taking on
:03:19. > :03:23.the Republican Party establishment. All of this happened because Paul
:03:24. > :03:27.Ryan, the most senior elected Republican in America, said over the
:03:28. > :03:32.weekend that he was going to stop campaigning for Donald Trump and
:03:33. > :03:36.concentrate on trying to save the House of Representatives for the
:03:37. > :03:42.Republican Party. All of this in the light of that grotesque, lewd video
:03:43. > :03:46.tape of Donald Trump speaking about women that emerged last Friday. You
:03:47. > :03:52.have had a flood of Republicans saying, we don't like what he said,
:03:53. > :03:55.condemning their nominee. One in ten elected members say there should be
:03:56. > :03:59.somebody else at the top of the ticket. I have never seen anything
:04:00. > :04:03.like this. I have never seen a Republican candidate disavowed by
:04:04. > :04:06.their party like this, and I have never seen a candidate take on their
:04:07. > :04:11.own party with the kind of language that Donald Trump has been using in
:04:12. > :04:14.his feed. Perhaps there is a strategy here that could work
:04:15. > :04:18.whereby Donald Trump says to the American people, they are all the
:04:19. > :04:26.establishment. Both parties. Come with me and we will do things
:04:27. > :04:30.differently. Well, one of the tweets that he stormed out earlier said "It
:04:31. > :04:35.is great to be unshackled. I can conduct this fight the way I want
:04:36. > :04:40.to". The subtext is, I can take on the establishment and that is why
:04:41. > :04:44.you like me. It does have an appeal. It is certainly what the base of his
:04:45. > :04:47.supporters have always liked about Donald Trump. They don't care
:04:48. > :04:51.whether he is up-to-date on the latest policy issues. They haven't
:04:52. > :04:56.chosen him because they think he is a perfectly moral candidate, or even
:04:57. > :04:59.a perfectly religious candidate. They have chosen him because there
:05:00. > :05:04.is an antiestablishment mood in America, just as there is in the UK
:05:05. > :05:08.and Europe at the moment, and they think he will do things differently
:05:09. > :05:12.and he is not part of the establishment. He is not beholden to
:05:13. > :05:17.it or funded by it. He is funding himself, so he will conduct politics
:05:18. > :05:23.in their interests. The problem with that is that the people that believe
:05:24. > :05:30.that already support him. To win this election, he has to get people
:05:31. > :05:35.on board who are still wavering. And this strategy doesn't do much to get
:05:36. > :05:40.them on board. Reading the commentary in the US, it has been
:05:41. > :05:45.interesting how many commentators are focusing on the state of
:05:46. > :05:50.American democracy. It feels like we have reached a point where this is a
:05:51. > :05:53.nexus, with the schisms in the Republican party, the power of
:05:54. > :05:57.celebrity, combined with the alienation of globalisation and
:05:58. > :06:03.other things coming together to create something remarkable. Yeah,
:06:04. > :06:10.we are living in disruptive and disrupting times. Whether you take
:06:11. > :06:15.technology or the media and certainly politics, a lot is up for
:06:16. > :06:19.grabs at the moment and there is a lot of questioning over whether the
:06:20. > :06:28.existing models work for the benefit of the majority of people. It would
:06:29. > :06:31.be surprising if we come out of this election, after all that has
:06:32. > :06:37.happened, with the Republican Party looking as it has done for the last
:06:38. > :06:41.few decades. I think we will have a Republican party that has a lot of
:06:42. > :06:45.soul-searching to do about how we win elections. The same is also true
:06:46. > :06:48.of the Democratic party. Bernie Sanders was not a flash in the pan.
:06:49. > :06:52.The appeal of somebody like Elizabeth Warren on the left of the
:06:53. > :06:57.Democratic party, speaking to millennials in this country, the
:06:58. > :07:01.younger voters want something more left of centre. So whilst the war
:07:02. > :07:05.going on in the Republican Party is most apparent right now, don't be
:07:06. > :07:11.surprised if we also see up upheaval in the Democratic party after this
:07:12. > :07:16.election. I am sure we will be talking tomorrow, but I have no idea
:07:17. > :07:21.what about! That was Katty Kay in Washington, DC. If you want coverage
:07:22. > :07:24.from BBC News on the US election, you can get it on the BBC news
:07:25. > :07:29.website and the BBC News at one. We must turn from the US to Haiti now,
:07:30. > :07:34.because there is a stark warning from the country's interim
:07:35. > :07:45.president. This is in response to the chaos delivered by hurricane
:07:46. > :07:52.Matthew. Hurricane Matthew killed around 900 Haitians last week. This
:07:53. > :07:59.is the World Food Programme on the long term consequences of the storm.
:08:00. > :08:03.In the north-west of the country, 60 to 90% of the harvests have been
:08:04. > :08:07.destroyed. The fishing industry in that part of the country is
:08:08. > :08:15.paralysed because the boats and fishing materials have been swept
:08:16. > :08:20.away. In the south-west, almost 100% of crops have been destroyed, which
:08:21. > :08:26.explains why the situation is dire. The whole of Haiti has been affected
:08:27. > :08:37.by this hurricane, in particular the south-west. These towns were hardest
:08:38. > :08:42.hit. Let me illustrate that by showing you some satellite pictures.
:08:43. > :08:45.This is Les Anglais, a picture taken in 2013, but a similar picture taken
:08:46. > :08:52.in the last few days shows the absolute destruction. This is
:08:53. > :08:59.another town, a shot taken before the hurricane, and this is after.
:09:00. > :09:03.Towns have been wiped out. There has also been flooding, which has led to
:09:04. > :09:07.fears that there could be a cholera outbreak in the country. Philippe
:09:08. > :09:13.Liberal is a journalist with radio Canada. He has been visiting some of
:09:14. > :09:16.the worst affected areas in Haiti. We got through to him on his phone
:09:17. > :09:26.while he was in Port-au-Prince. He told me what he has seen. We went to
:09:27. > :09:31.a town of 30,000 people. We saw that they had just set up an emergency
:09:32. > :09:37.centre to treat victims of cholera. They had 30 cases in two days. Three
:09:38. > :09:44.people had died, and when we walked in, it was packed with people and
:09:45. > :09:48.there were only two nurses. Much of the attention was centred around
:09:49. > :09:53.that centre for cholera, and the hospital was empty when we went.
:09:54. > :09:57.There were people lining up, hoping to see a doctor. One man had been
:09:58. > :10:09.lining up to see a doctor for three days. Yesterday, we went to a place
:10:10. > :10:13.for food distribution. We saw this centre help 600 people and most of
:10:14. > :10:17.them had not had anything to eat or drink since last Monday. The first
:10:18. > :10:25.people being helped whether one sleeping in refugee camps. If you
:10:26. > :10:30.want to get help, you need to get a ticket that you obtain at the
:10:31. > :10:37.refugee camp at night. There are people trying to break in and there
:10:38. > :10:41.is violence going on. A lot of the little towns are hard-hit. You see
:10:42. > :10:47.houses in shambles with roofs blown away. And these people see the UN
:10:48. > :10:53.convoys bringing health and food and shelter to the bigger towns, but
:10:54. > :10:57.they are not stopping along the way. So people are starting to set up
:10:58. > :11:04.roadblocks to try to get attention, and the tension is mounting. Next,
:11:05. > :11:20.we go to Afghanistan. Schone Kahlil is in Kabul.
:11:21. > :11:27.This shrine is one of the main Shia shrines here in Kabul. Worshippers
:11:28. > :11:32.have gathered there this evening to commemorate a significant date for
:11:33. > :11:37.Muslims in general, and for Shia Muslims in particular. This is the
:11:38. > :11:40.climax day of a month of mourning for the death of the Prophet
:11:41. > :11:44.Muhammad's grandson. Details have been sketchy coming in about the
:11:45. > :11:48.attack, but we understand from eyewitnesses that they heard a loud
:11:49. > :11:54.explosion, followed by gunfire. We also heard reports of a hostage
:11:55. > :11:58.situation. Police were quick to deploy to the area. They cordoned
:11:59. > :12:04.off the area around the shrine in the west of Kabul and they started
:12:05. > :12:10.letting people out as fast as they could. The authorities did warn Shia
:12:11. > :12:14.Muslims against large gatherings commemorating this event in the
:12:15. > :12:19.expectation of violence. It is not the first time Shias had been
:12:20. > :12:32.targeted. A July attack against the Shia Hazara community left at least
:12:33. > :12:36.80 people dead. In a few moments, we will look at the issue of child
:12:37. > :12:41.brides in India, as well as looking at the issue more broadly around the
:12:42. > :12:45.world. There has been a warning about the
:12:46. > :12:51.future of social care in England is the rate at which care homes are
:12:52. > :12:57.closing risers. Evidence gathered by the health regulator and seen by BBC
:12:58. > :13:00.News raises serious concerns about the impact of budget cuts on the
:13:01. > :13:11.quality of care for elderly and disabled people.
:13:12. > :13:16.Many of those involved in care have argued for years that it has been
:13:17. > :13:19.underfunded and we have not come up with a mechanism that is correct for
:13:20. > :13:24.funding social care, which is the support people get at home or in
:13:25. > :13:27.care homes, away from the NHS. That is partly because people have for a
:13:28. > :13:32.long time thought social care would be provided for them by local
:13:33. > :13:35.authorities. In fact, there is a decrease in the number of people who
:13:36. > :13:49.are eligible for help from local authorities.
:13:50. > :13:54.I'm Roz Atkins, with Outside Source. Our lead story is that the rift
:13:55. > :13:59.between Donald Trump and the Republican party leadership is
:14:00. > :14:04.widening. In a series of tweets, he called them disloyal and unable to
:14:05. > :14:07.win. There's look at the main stories from BBC World Service.
:14:08. > :14:11.South Africa passed by finance minister is to be prosecuted for
:14:12. > :14:15.fraud. The allegations date back to his time as the head of the tax
:14:16. > :14:21.department. He says this is political mischief.
:14:22. > :14:24.BBC World Service had that. BBC Chinese have reported the funding
:14:25. > :14:28.three-year-old girl who survived under the remains of a clapped home.
:14:29. > :14:33.She had been protected by the bodies of her parents, who died. This
:14:34. > :14:41.happened on Monday on the outskirts of a city.
:14:42. > :14:46.You may have seen this already. Today is the UN's International day
:14:47. > :14:50.of the girl. It is being barked -- marked with different events all
:14:51. > :14:54.over the world. The charity Save The Children is using it to highlight
:14:55. > :14:56.child marriage. If you look at the charity's campaign feed online, it
:14:57. > :15:08.says: let me give you some more numbers to
:15:09. > :15:12.understand the issues. 15 million girls married before the age of 18.
:15:13. > :15:25.In developing countries, one in three girls is married before age of
:15:26. > :15:31.18 and one in five -- won in nine is married before 15. We decided to
:15:32. > :15:38.look at the issue in India. Legally, a girl must be over 18 years of age
:15:39. > :15:43.and the boy must be over 21. That is the law. There are ways around it.
:15:44. > :15:47.People do things they shouldn't, often because of tradition or custom
:15:48. > :15:51.or because that is how it has always been done. We do have a custom
:15:52. > :15:55.sometimes that girls get married really young, even as young as five
:15:56. > :15:59.or six, but they continue to live with their parents. It is only once
:16:00. > :16:02.they become a teenager that they moved to their husband's house.
:16:03. > :16:08.Sometimes even the groom is very young, just seven or eight years of
:16:09. > :16:12.age. But when they are teenagers, they start living together. So are
:16:13. > :16:17.their thousands of prosecutions, or is this tolerated because it is seen
:16:18. > :16:22.as part of India's culture? It is not tolerated when it is reported.
:16:23. > :16:25.If it is reported, the police are supposed to take action and there
:16:26. > :16:29.will be prosecutions. However, many times, cases like this go unreported
:16:30. > :16:37.because the whole village would agree with something like this. This
:16:38. > :16:41.is more prevalent in rural areas than urban areas. The village will
:16:42. > :16:44.think it is a family matter. Me and my neighbour have decided that our
:16:45. > :16:48.children should get married and we should turn this into a family
:16:49. > :16:51.Alliance. I'm interested that you mentioned the divide between the
:16:52. > :16:56.cities and the country. Are there are also parts of India where this
:16:57. > :17:00.is more common, or rather particular religions or cultures where it is
:17:01. > :17:04.more common? There have been instances where girls who were a bit
:17:05. > :17:08.older, like 13 or 14, have put their foot down and said they will not do
:17:09. > :17:12.this. This is closely related to education. If they have been
:17:13. > :17:16.educated even a little bit, then they know this is not something
:17:17. > :17:27.which is legal and that they have rights. There have been cases when a
:17:28. > :17:31.girl has put her foot down or they have reported it and the police have
:17:32. > :17:35.taken action. If you were watching yesterday, Outside Source was
:17:36. > :17:49.reporting on the existential threat to Samsung's Galaxy Note 7
:17:50. > :17:55.smartphone. Today we got this. The bid everyone focus on was this. Rory
:17:56. > :18:06.Cellan-Jones has been following this story each step of the way.
:18:07. > :18:08.It was the latest version of Samsung's giant smartphone
:18:09. > :18:10.and it won rave reviews, but then this happened.
:18:11. > :18:13.In a fast-food restaurant in South Korea a phone is on fire,
:18:14. > :18:18.one of several incidents over the last 10 days.
:18:19. > :18:21.These all involved replacement Note 7s, sent out after the first
:18:22. > :18:25.Now, Samsung has admitted defeat, halting production
:18:26. > :18:32.Customers have been told to turn them off and return them to stores.
:18:33. > :18:34.In London this morning, this man, who bought
:18:35. > :18:36.previous versions of the Note, was disappointed.
:18:37. > :18:44.I pre-ordered the Note 7 in mid-September I got it
:18:45. > :18:52.So I got my replacement and was perfectly happy with it
:18:53. > :18:54.and heartbroken to have to take my new phone
:18:55. > :18:58.Samsung broke new ground, with the Note proving
:18:59. > :19:00.there was an appetite for much bigger phones.
:19:01. > :19:04.It hoped its latest version would be the best-selling yet.
:19:05. > :19:07.Now, though, it's clear that the Note 7 isn't coming back.
:19:08. > :19:11.The company must concentrate on limiting the damage
:19:12. > :19:17.Shares in the company fell sharply, wiping billions of its value
:19:18. > :19:25.as investors worried that the reputation of its other
:19:26. > :19:29.Samsung is respected as being technologically excellent
:19:30. > :19:36.that is what they need to recover from.
:19:37. > :19:39.That will be the test on whether or not they are able
:19:40. > :19:42.to recover some of the value they are losing by the day.
:19:43. > :19:46.This incident is the most serious so far.
:19:47. > :19:54.But Samsung isn't alone in seeing smartphone batteries overheat.
:19:55. > :19:56.The reason for that is that modern smartphones are powerful computers.
:19:57. > :19:59.They use a lot of energy to make those wonderful things work.
:20:00. > :20:02.That energy could be dangerous if it's released quickly.
:20:03. > :20:03.In certain circumstances, that can happen.
:20:04. > :20:09.We want more and more from our phones, but as Samsung
:20:10. > :20:12.found to its cost, the one thing we demand above all others
:20:13. > :20:26.Don't for a minute think that what is the end of Samsung's troubles. It
:20:27. > :20:30.has an ongoing dispute with Apple which has reached the US Supreme
:20:31. > :20:34.Court. Judges have already ruled that Samsung copied elements of the
:20:35. > :20:39.iPhone's design. Today, we are going to learn how much that will cost
:20:40. > :20:42.Samsung. Let's bring in Michelle Fleury in New York, who is covering
:20:43. > :20:49.this. What precisely did Samsung copy? It had to do with one of the
:20:50. > :20:55.most memorable aspects of some of the older iPhones. The first time
:20:56. > :20:59.they started introducing those round edges for the phones. That is one of
:21:00. > :21:05.the areas where it has been found guilty of copying Apple's design.
:21:06. > :21:09.Something so simple, a round edges of a sharp edge. The other thing has
:21:10. > :21:14.to do with the front of the phone, that almost black glass front. That
:21:15. > :21:22.was another area where they were found to have infringed on Apple's
:21:23. > :21:28.design patent. At dispute is $400 million. That represents the profits
:21:29. > :21:32.that Samsung made from selling smartphone is which essentially
:21:33. > :21:36.copied Apple's design. They are arguing that it is not fair that
:21:37. > :21:42.they should have to repay the entire profit, that the design was only one
:21:43. > :21:46.aspect of the overall product. I have the impression that these two
:21:47. > :21:52.are continually suing each other over patents. You wouldn't be wrong.
:21:53. > :21:57.This is the result of several cases. Two lower courts ruled in favour of
:21:58. > :22:03.Apple in this case. It has made its way all the way to the Supreme
:22:04. > :22:07.Court, the top court in America. It is pretty unusual to see this
:22:08. > :22:12.happen. They are arguing over a point of law that dates back to the
:22:13. > :22:17.1880s, when two carpet designers were accused of copying the design
:22:18. > :22:22.of other carpet manufacturers. What is really at stake here is the fact
:22:23. > :22:26.that this could have wide-ranging implications for the rest of the
:22:27. > :22:29.technology industry. As a result, you are seeing some unusual or
:22:30. > :22:37.unlikely allies for Samsung. I'm talking names like Facebook, Google,
:22:38. > :22:42.HP, all saying that this could have an adverse effect on how companies
