:00:07. > :00:30.Earlier, North Korea said it would consider attacking the US territory

:00:31. > :00:34.of Guam. Kenya's Electoral Commission says its voting system is

:00:35. > :00:38.secure, that comes after the opposition candidate alleged it had

:00:39. > :00:41.been hacked. We will take you live to Nairobi. More trouble for Trump

:00:42. > :00:46.as reports surfaced that the house of the President's former campaign

:00:47. > :00:50.manager Paul Monfort was raided by the FBI two weeks ago. And if you

:00:51. > :01:07.want to get in touch, the hashtag BBC OS.

:01:08. > :01:14.Welcome to Outside Source. I want to show you an extraordinary statement

:01:15. > :01:16.from the head of the worlds most powerful military, General Jim

:01:17. > :01:22.Mathis has issued a statement from the Pentagon that this warning.

:01:23. > :01:26.Mathis said North Korea should seize any consideration of actions that

:01:27. > :01:31.would lead to the end of its regime and the destruction of its people.

:01:32. > :01:34.That follows sabre rattling reminders from the president

:01:35. > :01:39.himself, saying his first order as president was to renovate and

:01:40. > :01:43.modernise our nuclear arsenal. It is now far stronger and more powerful

:01:44. > :01:45.than ever before. The tough rhetoric comes after this statement on North

:01:46. > :02:07.Korea's state television. With medium to long-range strategic

:02:08. > :02:13.ballistic Rossouw 's -- sick missiles, we have the ability to hit

:02:14. > :02:20.US air bases on Guam. That followed Donald Trump was burst of anger when

:02:21. > :02:22.he said any further missile launchers from North Korea would

:02:23. > :02:26.result in fire and fury like the world had never seen. All of this

:02:27. > :02:29.stemming from news reports that Pyongyang may now possess the beauty

:02:30. > :02:34.to shrink any clear what had if it's a missile. Let us bring up our map

:02:35. > :02:37.to show you the small island being threatened here, Guam. It is roughly

:02:38. > :02:42.three and a half thousand kilometres from North Korea and if we go in

:02:43. > :02:48.closer, you can see why it has been highlighted as a target by North

:02:49. > :02:53.Korea. A naval base and an Air Force Base where US strategic bombers are

:02:54. > :02:56.capped. It just so happens the US Secretary of State, the top

:02:57. > :03:02.diplomat, Rex Tillerson, has been visiting Guam today. This is what he

:03:03. > :03:06.said. What the President was doing is sending a strong message to North

:03:07. > :03:11.Korea in language Kim Jong-un would understand, because he is not seem

:03:12. > :03:14.to understand diplomatic language. Let's consider this a bit. We can

:03:15. > :03:19.pass to Jane O'Brien in Washington for us, Jane, you might have

:03:20. > :03:24.expected the Pentagon to try to row back a bit of the president has

:03:25. > :03:29.said. But no, quite the other way? I think it is all a matter of

:03:30. > :03:33.emphasis. I think there was a slight and nuanced change of language

:03:34. > :03:38.between what you heard the secretary of defence Jim Mathis say on the

:03:39. > :03:42.president, because the president was saying, warning North Korea about

:03:43. > :03:48.threats. Jim Mathis is warning North Korea of the consequence of its

:03:49. > :03:51.actions. It should stop actions which would lead to the destruction

:03:52. > :03:56.of its people and the collapse of the regime. Talking about losing a

:03:57. > :04:00.war that it initiates. I think there is a slight change of emphasis, but

:04:01. > :04:05.yes, still very much emphasising this strong language, this strong

:04:06. > :04:10.deterrent language that we heard from Donald Trump. Very different to

:04:11. > :04:14.the diplomacy from Rex Tillerson, who is talking about diplomacy as

:04:15. > :04:19.being the way forward. It is working, we are seeing pressure from

:04:20. > :04:24.China, and that the end goal for him is talks with Pyongyang. I have had

:04:25. > :04:28.quite a lot of talk about the danger of backing North Korea into a

:04:29. > :04:34.corner. I suppose the only way to avoid doing that is some sort of

:04:35. > :04:37.talks. That's right, and leaving North Korea a way out, which is

:04:38. > :04:43.something else that Rex Tillerson brought up. The issue is that North

:04:44. > :04:46.Korea does not seem to want to engage in any talks, it is rebuffing

:04:47. > :04:51.approaches from South Korea in the last week or so, and there seems to

:04:52. > :04:55.be very little incentive for aid to want to talk to the US, which it

:04:56. > :05:00.regards as an existential threat. There in lies the danger of the sort

:05:01. > :05:04.of rhetoric we are hearing from Donald Trump, because although his

:05:05. > :05:08.supporters say that it shows resolve and shrank, it could also be

:05:09. > :05:11.interpreted as preparing for a military attack. We simply do not

:05:12. > :05:16.know which way the regime is going to take it. Further complicated by

:05:17. > :05:19.the fact there are no diplomatic relations between Pyongyang and

:05:20. > :05:24.Washington. There are no embassies, so there is not that

:05:25. > :05:29.behind-the-scenes ambassador talk going on. It is all on open display,

:05:30. > :05:34.it is all coming from the horse's mouth, as it were. In this case from

:05:35. > :05:41.Donald Trump, apparently making spur of the moment comments on a very

:05:42. > :05:43.serious issue. This talk of possible pre-emptive military action, do we

:05:44. > :05:52.know how that is going down with the American public? I do think anyone

:05:53. > :05:56.thinks that military action is a good idea. Certainly the White House

:05:57. > :06:02.is talking about it very much as a matter of last resort. There has

:06:03. > :06:06.been some criticism of this, Donald Trump has been criticised by members

:06:07. > :06:13.of his own party today for ratcheting up the rhetoric. It is

:06:14. > :06:18.something that everybody would seek to avoid. According to Rex Tillerson

:06:19. > :06:21.again, the voice of moderation in all this, relatively speaking, he

:06:22. > :06:27.says he has seen nothing in the last 24 hours that would suggest any kind

:06:28. > :06:31.of imminent military action. Thanks very much. China has experienced two

:06:32. > :06:35.earthquakes in the last 24 hours. The two quakes struck places on

:06:36. > :06:40.opposite sides of the country. An all-out rescue and recovery effort

:06:41. > :06:49.is now underway. 6.6 magnitude tremor struck the remote area,

:06:50. > :06:53.injuring 32 people. Across the country, 19 people are confirmed to

:06:54. > :07:01.have been killed in an earthquake in Sichuan province. The full extent of

:07:02. > :07:07.the damage still is not known. The aftermath of Tuesday's earthquake

:07:08. > :07:09.still haunts rescue crews. More than 1000 after-shocks have been

:07:10. > :07:17.detected, some triggering landslides. A highway bound for a

:07:18. > :07:21.popular mountain tourist spot in this county was cut off, trapping

:07:22. > :07:30.more than 100 people. The road at self sustaining serious damage. The

:07:31. > :07:35.7.0 magnitude earthquake hit the county just after 9pm local time on

:07:36. > :07:41.Tuesday. Up to 45,000 people have been evacuated from the damaged

:07:42. > :07:46.areas. The government has called for an all-out rescue and recovery

:07:47. > :07:49.effort, but the Red Cross Society of China says it will still be some

:07:50. > :07:56.time before we know the extent of the damage and the number of

:07:57. > :08:00.casualties. 2000 kilometres away in the remote north-west, they are

:08:01. > :08:04.dealing with another serious earthquake. This one struck on

:08:05. > :08:10.Wednesday morning, further stretching the country's resources.

:08:11. > :08:15.Leaving hundreds more to spaced -- leaving hundreds more displaced. Six

:08:16. > :08:19.French soldiers have been injured, two seriously after a car was driven

:08:20. > :08:22.into them while they were on patrol in Paris. Counterterror police shot,

:08:23. > :08:25.wounded and arrested a man on a motorway north of the capital. Our

:08:26. > :08:31.correspondent Jonny Diamond reports from Paris.

:08:32. > :08:32.Paramedics swarm around injured soldiers.

:08:33. > :08:35.Just moments after a car ploughed into a military patrol.

:08:36. > :08:37.Six soldiers were injured, three seriously, after the car,

:08:38. > :08:40.waiting for the men, accelerated sharply and knocked them down.

:08:41. > :08:54.Residents looked on as the emergency services went to work.

:08:55. > :08:57.TRANSLATION: I heard a loud noise and I looked out my window,

:08:58. > :09:06.I saw the ambulance and the fire engine arriving and I didn't go out.

:09:07. > :09:10.It was a truly odious attack, said the neighbourhood mayor.

:09:11. > :09:15.To target soldiers who were here to protect the French people.

:09:16. > :09:21.After a morning of intense investigation, the operation

:09:22. > :09:25.This is a quiet suburb, some distance from the bright lights

:09:26. > :09:30.This morning's attack a reminder, if one were needed, that France

:09:31. > :09:36.TRANSLATION: It's a problem for us French people

:09:37. > :09:41.Even foreigners do not feel safe in France.

:09:42. > :09:44.It ended with a hail of gunfire, the suspect's car brought

:09:45. > :09:47.The country's long struggle with terror continues.

:09:48. > :10:04.Counting is still underway in the Kenyan election. The Electoral

:10:05. > :10:07.Commission 's website, let's have a look at that. It suggests the

:10:08. > :10:14.incumbent president is in the lead. It has him over 50, and there is his

:10:15. > :10:20.chief opponent. He has said the Electoral Commission 's IT system

:10:21. > :10:25.has been hacked to manipulate the election results. Here he is

:10:26. > :10:31.speaking a little earlier. TRANSLATION:

:10:32. > :10:45.It is a complete fraud. Boats that were not cast. The electoral fraud

:10:46. > :10:51.and publication of results is massive, and extensive. To the

:10:52. > :10:57.extent that as a result of the 47 counties were manipulated. This

:10:58. > :11:00.individual as part of the mystery. He said the hackers had used the

:11:01. > :11:05.identity of this man to get access to the system. This is a man who had

:11:06. > :11:10.been in charge of the electronic voting system until he was murdered

:11:11. > :11:13.last week. A couple of hours ago, Ken is Electoral Commission caused

:11:14. > :11:18.the nukes conference and here is what they said. -- Kenya is

:11:19. > :11:31.Electoral Commission called a news conference. Before, during, and

:11:32. > :11:42.after the voting. The RTS system is secure. A question about where it

:11:43. > :11:53.was and the reports I saw, the database we were using. So that you

:11:54. > :12:02.know, the IGS system is based on a database that is very different from

:12:03. > :12:07.the alleged database. Our team has refused the alleged logs and

:12:08. > :12:12.established that the claim has been made could not be substantiated from

:12:13. > :12:15.our end. It's also worth mentioning this tweet from the head of the

:12:16. > :12:19.African union observer mission, saying the judiciary as well

:12:20. > :12:27.prepared to deal with any electoral disputes that may arise. The high

:12:28. > :12:31.profile of this election internationally is in part due to

:12:32. > :12:36.the fear that the closeness of the vote could lead to violence, as

:12:37. > :12:40.happened ten years ago. So far the situation has remained relatively

:12:41. > :12:45.calm. We have seen some scenes like this, just to show you. From an

:12:46. > :12:53.opposition stronghold, you can see protesters lit fires, riot police

:12:54. > :12:56.were also deployed. In Nairobi, witnesses told the BBC One person

:12:57. > :13:00.was killed in a confrontation with police, but the government has

:13:01. > :13:05.denied this. The BBC has a huge team in Kenya covering all aspects of the

:13:06. > :13:14.election. Let's go to sue now, she is in the main counting centre in

:13:15. > :13:19.Nairobi. Some reports of violence? As you mentioned, summer riots

:13:20. > :13:24.reported in the Western town of casino that is the stronghold of the

:13:25. > :13:29.opposition leader. As soon as he made a statement alleging that the

:13:30. > :13:35.electoral systems had been hacked, people went into the streets. His

:13:36. > :13:40.supporters protested, and write police were sent in to deal with

:13:41. > :13:46.that situation. A similar scene in Nairobi. But right now it appears

:13:47. > :13:50.everything is calm, people have really been anxious. It is a

:13:51. > :13:54.weekday, and they would expect in Nairobi there is a lot of traffic on

:13:55. > :14:03.the roads, but today the city was deserted. Except for a few people,

:14:04. > :14:05.who went to open businesses in town. In Mombasa, people are really

:14:06. > :14:12.anxious and waiting for the final result. Waiting to see what happens

:14:13. > :14:14.afterwards. Worth reminding viewers outside Kenya this is a

:14:15. > :14:21.long-standing rivalry between these two men. That's right. The

:14:22. > :14:28.President's father was the founding president of Kenya, after

:14:29. > :14:32.independence. His vice president was Mr Odinga's father, but the two men

:14:33. > :14:35.fell out shortly after independence, and there has been this rivalry

:14:36. > :14:40.going on between the families for decades. Thank you very much for

:14:41. > :14:44.getting us up-to-date and they are from Nairobi. We will stay with that

:14:45. > :14:48.story as it continues to develop. Stay with us an Outside Source.

:14:49. > :14:51.Still to come... Just how long did the Netherlands know about a

:14:52. > :15:01.dangerous contamination of eggs? Belgium claims it may have been as

:15:02. > :15:05.long ago as last November. 18 people have been found guilty of the sexual

:15:06. > :15:11.exploitation of vulnerable young girls and women in Newcastle. Police

:15:12. > :15:14.had to pay a convicted child rapist ?10,000 for information. Earlier,

:15:15. > :15:18.Chief Constable Steve Ashwin for Northumbria Police spoke to the BBC

:15:19. > :15:21.and he was asked, was it necessary to pay for the information? Might

:15:22. > :15:28.the informant had persisted for free? What we find in policing,

:15:29. > :15:31.people give us permission for a range of motives. Some financial,

:15:32. > :15:37.sometimes quite often with organised criminals for example, it is about

:15:38. > :15:41.revenge. Upon a rival criminal. Some of them give us information for

:15:42. > :15:46.moral reasons. They find it appalling and distressing that they

:15:47. > :15:49.are part of all they know of a pattern of offending and they want

:15:50. > :15:54.to tell us about it for the right reasons. You would expect us to

:15:55. > :15:57.explore all those reasons with our information, I simply cannot tell

:15:58. > :15:59.you standing here now exactly whether that was increment. I would

:16:00. > :16:09.expect it to have been covered with that informant.

:16:10. > :16:15.You are watching Outside Source, live from the BBC newsroom. Our lead

:16:16. > :16:18.story: the US Defence Secretary Jim Agassiz told North Korea to avoid

:16:19. > :16:22.actions that could usher in the destruction of its people. The

:16:23. > :16:27.latest in a war of words between the US and North Korea. Let's look at

:16:28. > :16:32.some of the stories making news around the BBC's other services.

:16:33. > :16:37.Zimbabwe's cash-strapped government can suspend $1 billion to build a

:16:38. > :16:40.university to honour 93-year-old president Robert Mugabe.

:16:41. > :16:45.Construction would cost around 800 million, with a further 200 million

:16:46. > :16:48.put aside for endowments to fund research and innovation. The

:16:49. > :16:54.university will be built north of the capital Harare, and that is on

:16:55. > :16:57.BBC I freak. Former world number one golfer Tiger Woods has pleaded not

:16:58. > :17:00.guilty to driving under the influence. But has accepted a lesser

:17:01. > :17:04.charge of reckless driving. The 41-year-old was arrested in May on

:17:05. > :17:09.suspicion of driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. There

:17:10. > :17:13.were breathalyser found no trace of alcohol in his system. That story is

:17:14. > :17:18.on the BBC World Service. This story is one of the most read and viewed

:17:19. > :17:20.stories online, that is a humpback whale leaping out of the water off

:17:21. > :17:26.the coast of St John's Newfoundland in Canada. Three people in the vote

:17:27. > :17:32.were simply out fishing, thankfully one was armed with a camera.

:17:33. > :17:36.Millions of eggs have been taken from the shelves in Belgium, and

:17:37. > :17:39.there is a row about why. Belgium has accused the Netherlands of

:17:40. > :17:44.numbing about a potentially dangerous contamination since late

:17:45. > :17:47.last year. Let's look at this. Belgian officials had already

:17:48. > :17:52.admitted to knowing in June that Dutch eggs might contain a harmful

:17:53. > :17:56.insecticide. The information was not made public until a month later.

:17:57. > :18:05.That was widely criticised across Europe. Now, Belgian's agriculture

:18:06. > :18:09.Minister says that the Netherlands may have known about the problem as

:18:10. > :18:14.far back as last November. What is involved here? It is fibrin alba

:18:15. > :18:21.talking about, the contaminants that can harm the kidneys, thyroid

:18:22. > :18:28.glands. He is Adam Fleming in Brussels. Belgian MPs interrupted

:18:29. > :18:32.their summer holidays today so they could quiz the head of the Food

:18:33. > :18:35.Standards Agency and also the agriculture and public health

:18:36. > :18:37.minister here in Belgium. The Belgian government is fighting

:18:38. > :18:41.against this allegation that they knew for quite some time that there

:18:42. > :18:44.could be a problem with these contaminated eggs. But they failed

:18:45. > :18:49.to pass that information on to their European neighbours. They are

:18:50. > :18:53.fighting against the allegation by saying, Thailand, we actually asked

:18:54. > :18:58.to be Dutch authorities for information in June, which took them

:18:59. > :19:01.a whole month to provide. A Belgian minister also suggested the Dutch

:19:02. > :19:05.may have, where a potential problem as problem as early as November last

:19:06. > :19:09.year, much earlier than people thought. The priority here is still

:19:10. > :19:13.protecting public health, the health minister says there is very little

:19:14. > :19:17.risk to the public 's help, because you would have to consume vast

:19:18. > :19:22.quantities of these contaminated eggs to feel any ill effects.

:19:23. > :19:27.Nonetheless, a third of Dutch poultry farms are still closed as a

:19:28. > :19:32.precaution. Last week, the German government removed 3 million eggs

:19:33. > :19:35.from the shelves. It does seem that the real effects here will not be

:19:36. > :19:42.felt in people's health, but it will be felled to dramatically and

:19:43. > :19:46.economically. OS business now, and the top story is our escalating war

:19:47. > :19:51.of words between the US and North Korea. Let's see how the markets are

:19:52. > :19:57.reacting. Michelle is there for us. Any movement? We have seen the

:19:58. > :20:02.escalation of tension between US and North Korea actually has started to

:20:03. > :20:07.weigh on investors minds. Just looking at how the markets finished

:20:08. > :20:12.for the day, and the Dow is down about one, two tenths of a percent.

:20:13. > :20:18.The SNP lost one tenth of a percent, so not major downgrades, but you are

:20:19. > :20:24.starting to see a bit of nervousness. Investors are beginning

:20:25. > :20:28.to put a bit of money into gold, the Swiss franc, investments that often

:20:29. > :20:30.they think of as safe havens. It's worth pointing out that we are

:20:31. > :20:35.coming off the back of a period where we have seen Wall Street

:20:36. > :20:39.eating fish record highs, so that may explain some of the declines. --

:20:40. > :20:46.we have seen Wall Street eating fresh record highs. I have a

:20:47. > :20:50.question about Disney. It is massive and buying theme parks, blockbusters

:20:51. > :20:53.like frozen, Star Wars and the Marvel series but the entertainment

:20:54. > :20:57.giant is struggling to be profitable in the face of Lina competition, as

:20:58. > :21:01.we found out today. It is axing a deal with Netflix and apparently it

:21:02. > :21:06.will stream its own content. Tell us more. It has been an interesting

:21:07. > :21:11.couple of days hearing from media companies here in the US. Disney is

:21:12. > :21:16.the one that has drawn a lot of attention, because it is saying it

:21:17. > :21:20.is going to pull its offerings away from Netflix, when that contract

:21:21. > :21:23.ends. The will start its own streaming service is literally

:21:24. > :21:28.trying to give its offerings direct to consumers. People in industry

:21:29. > :21:34.have are looking at the profits of Netflix which continued to do better

:21:35. > :21:36.than many people expected, as a result of that, companies are trying

:21:37. > :21:43.to figure out how they should proceed. Here we have Disney, saying

:21:44. > :21:45.hang on, we have content we can offer directly to consumers. It

:21:46. > :21:50.comes at a time and some of their other businesses are not doing so

:21:51. > :21:54.well. ESPN was long a very successful portion of its business,

:21:55. > :21:59.a cable sports channel, he in the US. That has been a source of worry,

:22:00. > :22:03.it's as subscribers have been dropping in advertising dollars have

:22:04. > :22:08.been falling away. This may be an attempt by the company to pivot away

:22:09. > :22:12.from that. Towards revenue from streaming, on the other side we have

:22:13. > :22:16.heard from CBS earlier this week, they said they actually want to

:22:21. > :22:24.grow in the franchise. We will have to wait and see how this all plays

:22:25. > :22:27.out, clearly a changing landscape as the networks try to figure out what

:22:28. > :22:32.to do and how to compete with the likes of Netflix. Quickly, what is

:22:33. > :22:37.the thinking about how this affects Netflix? It is now focusing on

:22:38. > :22:43.original content, with series like Schengen Things. It is making waves

:22:44. > :22:47.on its own ground. They saw this coming perhaps. The deals they were

:22:48. > :22:57.spending a lot of money trying to do licensing deals with various media

:22:58. > :23:00.companies for the content. Going forward, they still rely on buying

:23:01. > :23:03.up huge swathes of programming. Whether that will become more

:23:04. > :23:07.difficult for the company going forward, one has to watch this

:23:08. > :23:12.space. At the same time, you have other entrance into this field like

:23:13. > :23:15.Amazon prime, developing their own streaming service and developing

:23:16. > :23:20.their own content. For viewers, it is a great time to be watching

:23:21. > :23:27.television. For the companies, very competitive. Thanks very much. It is

:23:28. > :23:34.hard to believe exactly a decade ago, we were staring into a

:23:35. > :23:36.financial abyss. On the 9th of August 2007, Banks family had

:23:37. > :23:40.billions of dollars in toxic debt which could not be repaired and

:23:41. > :23:43.lending to businesses and consumers dried up. The financial crisis that

:23:44. > :23:49.followed is estimated to have cost the US economy alone a staggering

:23:50. > :23:53.$22 trillion. One man in the eye of that storm was young prodigy Shea,

:23:54. > :24:00.the boss of the European Central Bank. The idea that we could have

:24:01. > :24:05.total evaporation, total desperation of a normal money market on one of

:24:06. > :24:09.the two big money markets in the world was something which had not

:24:10. > :24:16.been experienced since World War II. We were amazed, we had only a short

:24:17. > :24:21.period of time, because if we had waited for one day, then we would

:24:22. > :24:24.have a full day without any money market functioning in euros in the

:24:25. > :24:29.morning, it was the only big-money market in the world. The New York

:24:30. > :24:35.market was not open yet, so we decided to be extremely bold, and to

:24:36. > :24:46.give all the liquidity which was asked by the banks, and they asked

:24:47. > :24:50.us 95 billion euros. Before we finish this edition, I want to bring

:24:51. > :24:53.you a story just coming into the newsroom, the United Nations

:24:54. > :24:57.migration agency says up to 50 migrants have been deliberately

:24:58. > :25:01.drowned by people smugglers off Yemen. Let's show you where we are

:25:02. > :25:05.talking about here. It is understood the migrants mainly from Somalia and

:25:06. > :25:09.Ethiopia had boarded a boat in the Horn of Africa, they were travelling

:25:10. > :25:15.up the hope of eventually reaching a a Gulf country. They we are hearing

:25:16. > :25:22.as they reached the migrant coast, they were forced into the sea. 29

:25:23. > :25:26.people were killed, around a hundred survived. 22 people are also

:25:27. > :25:31.missing. A spokesperson for the International organisation for

:25:32. > :25:34.migration said the smugglers deliberately pushed the migrants

:25:35. > :25:37.into the waters since they feared they would be arrested by the

:25:38. > :25:41.authorities once they reached the shore. The BBC will have more

:25:42. > :25:46.details as they come in. You can always tell us what you think about

:25:47. > :25:50.our stories, our developing stories, the hashtag is BBC OS. Of course we

:25:51. > :25:55.have a lot more in terms of analysis and correspondent commentary on the

:25:56. > :25:58.BBC website/ news. A lot more there on any of our running and running

:25:59. > :26:14.stories. Do is stay with us. Tropical storm Franklin continues to

:26:15. > :26:15.strengthen as he moves through the Bay of Campisi, we are taking a look
