:00:11. > :00:18.Hello I am Philippa Thomas and this is outside source. Donald Trump has
:00:19. > :00:23.taken a break from his holidays to say this. North Korea had best not
:00:24. > :00:24.make any more threats to the United States. They will be met with fire,
:00:25. > :00:43.and fury. A vote of no-confidence in Jacob
:00:44. > :00:49.Zuma in South Africa ended like this. A vote of no-confidence is
:00:50. > :00:54.accordingly negatives. This is the eighth no-confidence vote that the
:00:55. > :00:57.president has the vibe. Meanwhile, counting is underway in the general
:00:58. > :01:02.in Kenya. We could get you the latest from the
:01:03. > :01:07.track of the world athletics Championships as well as telling you
:01:08. > :01:08.more about the norovirus virus that has affected some of the athletes
:01:09. > :01:29.there. Welcome to Outside Source. This is
:01:30. > :01:33.Botswana's Isaac Makwala. One of the favourites to win a medal at the
:01:34. > :01:39.world athletics Championships taking place here on Monday. But he has
:01:40. > :01:44.been struck down by the norovirus as have many athletes at the games.
:01:45. > :01:48.Officials are trying to limit the spread of the virus which has
:01:49. > :01:58.already affected many competitors and staff.
:01:59. > :02:01.This is the time when the world's best athletes should be
:02:02. > :02:04.Instead these competitors and coaches today found themselves
:02:05. > :02:06.at the centre of a suspected outbreak of the highly
:02:07. > :02:09.contagious vomiting bug Norovirus at this team hotel.
:02:10. > :02:12.Yesterday the world's best 200 metre runner, Issac Makwala,
:02:13. > :02:13.was forced to withdraw from the event.
:02:14. > :02:16.The Botswanan medal prospect one of 30 athletes and support
:02:17. > :02:21.I worked hard for this and it is sad for me because I was top
:02:22. > :02:27.I was ready to make everything possible.
:02:28. > :02:31.Despite saying he was fit to compete, Issac Makwala was ruled
:02:32. > :02:34.out of the 400 metre final by the athletics governing
:02:35. > :02:41.This usually lasts between 28 and 48 hours.
:02:42. > :02:44.The important thing is if people have it, to stay away from other
:02:45. > :02:47.people so they are not at risk of passing it on.
:02:48. > :02:50.And to be very scrupulous about washing their hands
:02:51. > :02:53.when they have been to the toilet or they have vomited.
:02:54. > :02:56.In a statement today the hotel said that following a joint investigation
:02:57. > :03:00.with public health authorities it had been discovered that the source
:03:01. > :03:07.And that strict hygiene protocols have now been put in place.
:03:08. > :03:09.World Championship organisers meanwhile said they're doing
:03:10. > :03:17.I guess in any event when you have 20,000 people minimum that we have
:03:18. > :03:19.accredited coming in from every corner of the world,
:03:20. > :03:22.there is a possibility that someone might come in with a bug.
:03:23. > :03:25.And we think that is probably what has happened here.
:03:26. > :03:28.There has been all sorts of food poisoning and all the medical
:03:29. > :03:30.experts, public health, safety, have said it is not,
:03:31. > :03:40.Some German and Canadian athletes staying at the Tower Hotel are being
:03:41. > :03:44.And with six days of competition left, organisers must now hope
:03:45. > :04:03.The UN human rights have accused authorities of using excessive force
:04:04. > :04:07.against demonstrators. There have been deaths of 46. They have also
:04:08. > :04:13.talked about demonstrators resorting to violence. The interviews
:04:14. > :04:18.conducted remotely by the UN human rights team paint a picture of
:04:19. > :04:23.widespread and systematic use of this excessive force and arbitrary
:04:24. > :04:28.detention against protesters in Venezuela. There are patterns of
:04:29. > :04:32.other human rights violations including violent house raids,
:04:33. > :04:37.torture and ill-treatment of those detained in connection with the
:04:38. > :04:38.protest. Katie Watson spoke to me earlier about the Sao Paulo
:04:39. > :05:04.reaction. This bears out what has been heard.
:05:05. > :05:09.The government has been very firm up until now saying that these protests
:05:10. > :05:13.have been carried out by what they call terrorists and they have not
:05:14. > :05:18.been backing down on that. But there is more and more criticism which --
:05:19. > :05:23.heaped on the administration that they have used excessive force and
:05:24. > :05:26.protesters have said that these confrontations have turned violent
:05:27. > :05:31.because of the force from the security authorities and the police
:05:32. > :05:35.on the ground in Venezuela. Remind us what the government in Venezuela
:05:36. > :05:42.has been doing to crackdown on political opponents? Well, according
:05:43. > :05:50.to this report, more than 5000 arbitrary detentions have taken
:05:51. > :05:55.place. More than 1000 still detained. The government has been
:05:56. > :06:00.very strong on trying to clamp down on what they call disruption and the
:06:01. > :06:04.opposition say that they are getting their voices heard. They are on the
:06:05. > :06:08.streets to protest against what they call the creeping dictatorship. That
:06:09. > :06:12.the only place they can protest is on the streets because all the
:06:13. > :06:16.democratic and political avenues are being closed off. So that is their
:06:17. > :06:21.way to rally against the government and ask for change.
:06:22. > :06:30.Time for sport. We have already heard about the virus. Let's hear
:06:31. > :06:31.about what is happening what is -- about what is happening on the
:06:32. > :06:41.track. That story that Dan was talking
:06:42. > :06:50.about has moved on. Away from the track, the man who was challenging
:06:51. > :06:56.for the 400 metres, Isaac Makwala, he missed the 200 metre heats 24
:06:57. > :06:59.hours ago after being told he could not compete because of illness. He
:07:00. > :07:06.attempted to enter the arena this evening only to be turned away by
:07:07. > :07:11.security. The Chief Executive Officer of Botswana athletics has
:07:12. > :07:14.told the BBC that no formal communication between IAAF and
:07:15. > :07:20.Botswana athletes took place. He said he met Makwala earlier and he
:07:21. > :07:25.was ready and willing to go. No medical test was done, he said and
:07:26. > :07:30.he was sent back to the hotel when he tried to enter and he has to to
:07:31. > :07:34.be quarantined for 48 hours. Then someone from the Botswana medical
:07:35. > :07:39.team said that nobody was present from their team and the IAAF said
:07:40. > :07:42.that that was eligible at the recorded and they send out an e-mail
:07:43. > :07:50.to the Botswana athletics delegation. This ain't Makwala was
:07:51. > :07:55.left by himself for half an hour. -- they say that Makwala was left. This
:07:56. > :08:01.story is going to run further for the time being.
:08:02. > :08:06.The 800 metres men's final is taking place. Amos is the favourite. It is
:08:07. > :08:11.coming towards the end, I should be able to give you the result. Then
:08:12. > :08:16.the 400 metres taking place, the final with the Olympic champion and
:08:17. > :08:20.world record-holder taking in that. In a lot of drama they're taking
:08:21. > :08:26.place with the athletics and quite a high profile football match.
:08:27. > :08:29.The European super cup between Manchester United and Real Madrid.
:08:30. > :08:35.They are into the final couple of minutes of stoppage time. Real
:08:36. > :08:44.Madrid players and handed them a 2-0 lead. Romelu Lukaku took one back
:08:45. > :08:51.for Manchester United. Currently this core is 2-1 with around two and
:08:52. > :08:59.a half minutes in that match. -- currently the school.
:09:00. > :09:07.The French athlete has won the 800 metres men's final. Nigel Amos, the
:09:08. > :09:14.favourite at the start. That was in the last 15 or 20 seconds. We are
:09:15. > :09:18.right up to date! We have a bit more sport to bring you. The women's
:09:19. > :09:24.Rugby World Cup starts on Wednesday taking place in Dublin and Belfast
:09:25. > :09:28.and holders England playing Spain in the opening game. Catherine Downes
:09:29. > :09:34.is an island for us. England come into this World Cup as defending
:09:35. > :09:39.champions and the world's number one test side. But according to these
:09:40. > :09:45.squad, none of that matters now. Spain is their first match. It
:09:46. > :09:49.should be a straightforward match, Spain not known as a 15 A-side
:09:50. > :09:55.power, but good at Rugby sevens. That means that the England coach
:09:56. > :10:00.has the luxury of leaving 392 caps on the bed, giving 12 debutants
:10:01. > :10:06.their first taste of World Cup action. We have come here along with
:10:07. > :10:11.11 other teams for the start of a brand-new competition. What has gone
:10:12. > :10:14.before has gone before, the slate is wiped clean and everybody is
:10:15. > :10:21.fighting for that trophy come the end of the condition. As for Wells,
:10:22. > :10:27.their opening match is a real tough one against the four times world
:10:28. > :10:32.champions the black firms. Their group will not get any easier
:10:33. > :10:39.because they then take on -- the Black ferns. Then they take on
:10:40. > :10:43.Canada. Hong Kong are taking their world debut. Ireland wrap things up
:10:44. > :10:48.tomorrow evening taking on Australia. They will be full of
:10:49. > :10:53.confidence after knocking out the Black Ferns at the last World
:10:54. > :10:59.Championships, ending their long run. They will need some confidence.
:11:00. > :11:06.They have a new captain leading Ireland on home soil. They kick off
:11:07. > :11:10.at 7pm Irish time. Plenty of time for Dubliners to get out here and
:11:11. > :11:19.cheer on their side. Stay with us on outside source. After the break, the
:11:20. > :11:29.price of progress, can historic architecture in China be saved from
:11:30. > :11:33.the march of money. Almost 40% of maternity wards in England closed
:11:34. > :11:37.their doors to expectant mothers last year. That is the result of a
:11:38. > :11:42.Freedom of information requests made by the Labour Party. There were more
:11:43. > :11:48.than 380 separate occasions when units were closed, up from 2014. The
:11:49. > :11:50.most common reasons were shortages of staff or beds. This report from
:11:51. > :11:56.our health correspondent. Midwives provide specialist care
:11:57. > :11:58.to some of the health service's most vulnerable patients,
:11:59. > :12:00.but a shortage of staff, combined with a rising birth rate,
:12:01. > :12:02.means some maternity Two years ago, Rachel Hall went
:12:03. > :12:07.into labour, but her local unit was temporarily closed and she faced
:12:08. > :12:10.a 30 mile road trip Fortunately, all was well in the end
:12:11. > :12:14.and daughter Isabelle is thriving, but for Rachel the memories
:12:15. > :12:16.are still vivid. When I was told that
:12:17. > :12:18.the hospital was closed, I think I actually went
:12:19. > :12:25.into shock to start off with because I just went really,
:12:26. > :12:28.really quiet and then I just burst into tears and was, like,
:12:29. > :12:30.uncontrollably crying because I just didn't know what was
:12:31. > :12:32.going to happen. So it was quite scary not knowing
:12:33. > :12:38.that my hospital wouldn't take me. This is one of the hospitals that
:12:39. > :12:40.had to close the doors of its maternity unit at least
:12:41. > :12:43.once during 2016. Now everyone agrees that at times
:12:44. > :12:47.managers may have to do that if the safety of mothers and babies
:12:48. > :12:50.is being compromised Births are extremely
:12:51. > :12:56.difficult to plan for, but experts warn that if it happens
:12:57. > :12:59.too frequently, well, that's The Royal College of Midwives
:13:00. > :13:06.believes there's a shortfall of 3,500 expert maternity staff
:13:07. > :13:10.and that's what's behind It's very rare for maternity units
:13:11. > :13:17.to be closed and the fact that we've seen a 70% increase in how often
:13:18. > :13:22.that's happening, I think should Peaks and troughs in the birth rate
:13:23. > :13:30.always have an impact on maternity services and more midwives
:13:31. > :13:34.are being trained. The Department of Health says
:13:35. > :13:37.hospitals need to use temporary closures to manage those peaks
:13:38. > :13:41.in admissions and it argues it's misleading to use these figures
:13:42. > :13:44.to indicate a shortage of staff because of the difficulties around
:13:45. > :14:15.planning for births. You are watching Outside Source. Our
:14:16. > :14:18.lead story, President Trump says that if North Korea makes more
:14:19. > :14:24.threats towards the United States, it will be met with fire, fury and
:14:25. > :14:32.power the like of which the world has never seen. Votes are being
:14:33. > :14:38.counted in Kenya's general election. People waited in long queues to vote
:14:39. > :14:42.for local representatives, parliamentarians and the president.
:14:43. > :14:45.It is that last about that international attention is really
:14:46. > :14:54.focused on. We can bring you an update here. The Kenyan president
:14:55. > :14:58.takes a lead in the early tallies. There are millions more votes to be
:14:59. > :15:02.counted and some results may be disputed but that appears to be
:15:03. > :15:08.where it is going. Let us remind you who we are talking about. This is
:15:09. > :15:15.the incumbent president, LaRue Kenny at, who is standing again and he
:15:16. > :15:20.will accept the will of the people. His opponent is his long-standing
:15:21. > :15:24.opponent, Mr Odinga. There have been hitches but the vote has gone
:15:25. > :15:27.smoothly in most places. International monitors are there,
:15:28. > :15:32.including John Kerry, who said he including John Kerry, who said he
:15:33. > :15:36.was glad to be there in a key election, he said there was a lot
:15:37. > :15:42.riding on a free, fair and safe election. The BBC has a big team in
:15:43. > :15:56.Kenya and here is one report. In the dockers before dawn, they
:15:57. > :16:01.waited. Some camp is hoping to be first. -- in the darkness. They
:16:02. > :16:06.turned up eager to vote. Here in Nairobi, Kenya and have been braving
:16:07. > :16:11.the cold and the rain, waiting to exercise their right to vote. Once
:16:12. > :16:18.the process is done, all eyes will be watching for the results. It is
:16:19. > :16:23.the vote for the presidency which is attracting the most attention. The
:16:24. > :16:31.incumbent president, Kenyatta, is hoping to retain power. But Mr
:16:32. > :16:35.Odinga is hoping to replace him. The leader would need more than half the
:16:36. > :16:43.votes to avoid a run-off. It will all be down to what the people
:16:44. > :16:46.decide. It will be the fourth selection -- successful election and
:16:47. > :16:51.I hope the Kenyan is given as a peaceful election. No matter who
:16:52. > :16:57.wins. I want to exercise my democratic rights and secondly, I
:16:58. > :17:00.want to vote for the right person to have the next government for the
:17:01. > :17:07.development of our country. For my children's feature. I have been
:17:08. > :17:10.voting since the first president of Kenya and I think now this is the
:17:11. > :17:18.fourth president and I am here, whether it rained all shines. We are
:17:19. > :17:23.very happy. The electoral authority has been under intense pressure to
:17:24. > :17:28.deliver a transparent and fair election. The country's security
:17:29. > :17:31.hinges on the success of this election and canyons hope there
:17:32. > :17:39.faith in the system will be rewarded. -- Kenyan people.
:17:40. > :17:48.This is the main place where the declaration will be made.
:17:49. > :18:00.The adding of these votes is happening
:18:01. > :18:04.automatically in the electronic system and everybody can see the
:18:05. > :18:06.results as they trickle in across the country
:18:07. > :18:09.through the Electoral Commission's website as well as
:18:10. > :18:15.through the local media channels which have been updating people 24
:18:16. > :18:22.The latest update is that at least one eighth of the votes,
:18:23. > :18:29.presidential votes count, is already end.
:18:30. > :18:37.By morning, we might have a clear indication how this vote is
:18:38. > :18:50.Do you expect security to be very tight? That depends on how the
:18:51. > :18:53.losers react and what they tell their supporters. Most of the
:18:54. > :18:58.post-election violence we have seen in the past has happened as a result
:18:59. > :19:03.of that reaction from the election losers. What is new about this
:19:04. > :19:08.election is that we have so many contestants, more than 14,000
:19:09. > :19:13.candidates vying for 1800 positions. That means a large number of them
:19:14. > :19:15.are going to lose. So how they react is going to have an impact on the
:19:16. > :19:44.mood in the country. Rex Cillessen is that the summit in
:19:45. > :19:52.Manila. And he made a stop in Thailand to urge the kingdom the car
:19:53. > :19:57.business ties with North Korea. This is an attempt to stall the region.
:19:58. > :20:33.-- the country. He is only spending a few hours in
:20:34. > :20:39.each country. There are important issues at stake here in Thailand. He
:20:40. > :20:48.wants to see Thailand restored to its central role in Asean, and it is
:20:49. > :20:54.in disagreement with China about how to deal with North Korea. The crisis
:20:55. > :20:59.there has woken me US up as to how much diplomatic ground the US has
:21:00. > :21:03.lost in this region. The US also wants to rebalance trade which is
:21:04. > :21:06.heavily weighted in favour of Thai exports and it was to restore the
:21:07. > :21:14.military partnership between these two countries. Having such a senior
:21:15. > :21:21.official here after downgraded ties because of the military coup, it is
:21:22. > :21:28.a big step. Let's take you to the Yunnan province in the south-western
