:03:38. > :03:46.The head of communications at Sierra Leone's Red Cross spoke to the BBC
:03:47. > :03:58.earlier and gave us an update. At the moment official figures,
:03:59. > :04:10.corroborated with the Ministry of health, is a total of 205 dead. The
:04:11. > :04:19.red cross as usual has been able to mobilise some resources, logistical
:04:20. > :04:27.resources, people, we have been able to deploy 60 volunteers and staff to
:04:28. > :04:31.all the affected communities today. Under mounting pressure over his
:04:32. > :04:35.failure to explicitly condemn the white supremacist group at the
:04:36. > :04:39.centre of the violence in Virginia on Saturday, Donald Trump has
:04:40. > :04:41.responded, he has held a news conference. Let us show you some of
:04:42. > :04:48.what he had to say. Racism is evil, and those who cause
:04:49. > :04:51.violence in its name are criminals and thugs,
:04:52. > :04:53.including the KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists and other hate
:04:54. > :04:55.groups that are repugnant to everything we hold
:04:56. > :04:58.dear as Americans. We are a nation founded on the truth
:04:59. > :05:05.that all of us are created equal. We are equal in the eyes
:05:06. > :05:08.of our Creator, we are equal under the law, and we are equal
:05:09. > :05:24.under our Constitution. Donald Trump significantly
:05:25. > :05:30.strengthening his condemnation of Saturday's violence, but the fallout
:05:31. > :05:37.has already started. A prominent ally of the pharmaceuticals -- eight
:05:38. > :05:51.boss of the pharmaceuticals company said he is stepping down. He said:
:05:52. > :06:03.After he had said that, there was a Tweet from Donald Trump:
:06:04. > :06:08.That was heavy. Just to recap what happened on
:06:09. > :06:12.Saturday that has led to all this reaction. Dozens were injured in
:06:13. > :06:17.violent clashes and a woman was killed when a car was rammed into
:06:18. > :06:30.opposition protesters. We are going to move on to show you the victim.
:06:31. > :06:41.One of her friends has been talking to us.
:06:42. > :06:45.Heather always spoke with so much conviction.
:06:46. > :06:47.Heather stood up for what she believed in.
:06:48. > :06:59.She just wanted everybody to be equal.
:07:00. > :07:16.This is 20-year-old James Alex feels, the man accused of killing
:07:17. > :07:23.Heather. First, their reaction to the words
:07:24. > :07:27.be heard from the President today. There has been sombre reaction but
:07:28. > :07:34.finally the President has said what people here have wanted him to say.
:07:35. > :07:38.When you speak to people here, including Heather's friend, she told
:07:39. > :07:42.me that what she wanted the President to do was renounce the
:07:43. > :07:47.heat that came to the streets of Charlottesville on Saturday. She
:07:48. > :07:51.believes this was a hate crime and it was domestic terrorism. The
:07:52. > :07:56.language that has come from the Trump administration has slowly ramp
:07:57. > :08:00.that's on Saturday, but it has taken three days. This is a community
:08:01. > :08:05.trying to come together meanwhile, around the loss of a 32-year-old
:08:06. > :08:09.woman who played such a prominent part here. When it comes to Donald
:08:10. > :08:16.Trump's language, it will be welcomed, but is it too little, too
:08:17. > :08:23.late? This is a President who has owned the past had the help of the
:08:24. > :08:31.so-called alt-right and that includes these white supremacists.
:08:32. > :08:36.Community leaders today say what he has said may not be enough.
:08:37. > :08:46.Is there still a sense of shock that you could see Nat C flags, civil war
:08:47. > :08:49.regalia on the streets of America on the 21st-century?
:08:50. > :08:56.When it comes to this rally, they have been promoting it for months,
:08:57. > :08:58.the KKK, white supremacists, neo-Nazis, and there have been
:08:59. > :09:05.skirmishes right across the site, and it is all about a Confederate
:09:06. > :09:10.statue of General Lee who fought on the proslavery side of the civil
:09:11. > :09:15.war. It is set for demolition. Civil rights activists have asked for this
:09:16. > :09:18.demolition. They want a fresh start or America, white supremacists
:09:19. > :09:22.believe this is getting rid of their history and heritage. There was an
:09:23. > :09:26.attempt to stop the march, to stop these white supremacists coming to
:09:27. > :09:31.this quite liberal tone and yet it was not stopped, they went ahead.
:09:32. > :09:36.There was some anger towards the organisers. A lot of anger towards
:09:37. > :09:40.those who came to these streets, and many people leave they came here to
:09:41. > :09:45.cause violence. There were swastikas. There were those giving
:09:46. > :09:55.natty suits, there were those in foods. Many believe it has no place
:09:56. > :10:03.here in modern America also -- there were those giving Nazi salutes.
:10:04. > :10:11.We will have eight report from Pakistan looking at the legacy of

:11:26. > :11:30.from the BBC newsroom. Hundreds of people are feared dead
:11:31. > :11:37.after a mudslide in Sierra Leone's capital, Freetown.
:11:38. > :11:41.Some stories making news across the BBC. The world health organisation
:11:42. > :11:47.says the number of suspected cases of cholera in Yemen has reached half
:11:48. > :11:53.a million. Nearly 2000 people have died in the outbreak since the end
:11:54. > :11:57.of April. A health spokesperson said nearly 500 new cases were being
:11:58. > :12:00.recorded every day. Former chess champion Garry Kasparov
:12:01. > :12:05.has come out of retirement for a one-off tournament in Missouri. He
:12:06. > :12:06.has been out of the game for 12 years after turning his hand to
:12:07. > :12:14.politics. He managed a draw on his return. And
:12:15. > :12:18.something you don't see every day, this 306 metre container ship has
:12:19. > :12:23.run aground off the course of Belgium, in doing so it is blocking
:12:24. > :12:27.shipping traffic in and out of Antwerp, the second largest
:12:28. > :12:35.container port in Europe. A large queue of vessels has already formed
:12:36. > :12:39.behind this. Burkina Faso has declared three days
:12:40. > :12:45.of national mourning after 18 people were killed at a Turkish restaurant.
:12:46. > :12:50.This happened overnight in the capital. We want to show you the
:12:51. > :12:54.moment that two men drove up to the restaurant and opened fire on people
:12:55. > :12:58.sitting on the terrace. The President has condemned what he cold
:12:59. > :13:03.the despicable and cowardly terrorist attack. Authorities say
:13:04. > :13:10.the two attackers were killed. This region has already had its
:13:11. > :13:20.share of terrorist groups turning up at one time or another.
:13:21. > :13:27.What does this mean for Burkina Faso?
:13:28. > :13:34.By Kuyt for joining us on Outside Source. Do we have any idea who that
:13:35. > :13:39.gun men are? So far we know that gun men came in
:13:40. > :13:48.on motorbikes and carried out the attack. We know that two of the
:13:49. > :13:54.attackers died. The unknown variable is who did the attack. Then Burkina
:13:55. > :14:00.Faso people are wondering who did the attack. They have no idea. This
:14:01. > :14:10.brings to mind what happened in the country in January, where gunmen...
:14:11. > :14:17.Not far away. Within two years the country has experienced two attacks,
:14:18. > :14:28.in January people were killed in a similar attack, Al-Qaeda claims that
:14:29. > :14:33.attack. Officials are not sure if it was Al-Qaeda that carried out the
:14:34. > :14:38.attack. But they have a hint that they might have carried out this
:14:39. > :14:43.attack. What can Government do? I though governments in the region
:14:44. > :14:46.have been talking about how to prevent this. That is very little
:14:47. > :14:56.they can do to prevent these attacks. I was in Coutinho Vassell
:14:57. > :15:06.last month -- in Burkina Faso last month. They have stepped up checks
:15:07. > :15:13.on the roads. They need to be careful who comes in and who goes
:15:14. > :15:18.out because of security. Making sure that an attack like this will not
:15:19. > :15:21.happen. Despite all of these measures it did happen. What can
:15:22. > :15:27.they do to prevent this? Very little. As is the case almost
:15:28. > :15:33.everywhere. But critics of the Government are saying that other
:15:34. > :15:39.than the last couple of weeks that Government and Unionists have been
:15:40. > :15:47.bickering over issues of safety, and then the lowered their guard. And
:15:48. > :15:53.the gunmen took the opportunity, almost exactly where they were one
:15:54. > :15:59.year ago. Thank you for bringing us up to date.
:16:00. > :16:19.Another story, this time from tenure, the election campaign. --
:16:20. > :16:25.this time from Kenya. Raila Odinga has been telling people
:16:26. > :16:30.to stay away from work. Other people are saying it is time
:16:31. > :16:35.to move on. Our reporter has this. Many
:16:36. > :16:39.businesses here have remained closed for almost one week and this has
:16:40. > :16:44.been because of the anxiety and tension caused by the results of the
:16:45. > :16:48.presidential election. In some parts we have seen running battles between
:16:49. > :16:57.supporters of opposition leader Raila Odinga and the police and
:16:58. > :17:01.traders are weary of security. But today, more activity, public
:17:02. > :17:07.transport getting out of the city into the capital and other parts of
:17:08. > :17:11.Western Kenya. Mixed reaction on the streets regarding that call by
:17:12. > :17:16.opposition leader Raila Odinga for people to boycott work today.
:17:17. > :17:22.Currently we are having kind of a strike. Most businesses are closed.
:17:23. > :17:27.But we hope that within the week they will start picking up. The only
:17:28. > :17:32.thing I want to express as my disappointed -- this appointment
:17:33. > :17:36.with the way the police handled the residence, the police are supposed
:17:37. > :17:42.to protect the people, they have a moral duty. The message we are
:17:43. > :17:47.getting from people on the streets is they want their normal life to
:17:48. > :17:51.resume but anxiety persists as supporters of the opposition leader
:17:52. > :17:59.awaits his message tomorrow regarding his next move.
:18:00. > :18:05.Time now for Outside Source business. And a story we have
:18:06. > :18:12.touched on already, the boss of a US pharmaceutical company resigning
:18:13. > :18:15.over the lack of response of President Trump to the
:18:16. > :18:23.Charlottesville violence. It followed biting criticism of the
:18:24. > :18:31.handling of that issue by the President. Other big US bosses have
:18:32. > :18:34.also condemned the violence. This is difficult for the business
:18:35. > :18:42.friendly President that Donald Trump says he is which it is an
:18:43. > :18:46.administration that has prided itself on being business friendly.
:18:47. > :18:49.They have made a big point about talking about tax reform,
:18:50. > :18:52.infrastructure reform, other policies that would be welcomed by
:18:53. > :18:57.the business community. A huge number of them have stepped up to be
:18:58. > :19:01.involved in some of the administration's business councils,
:19:02. > :19:06.whether strategic, manufacturing councils, to dry and look at how to
:19:07. > :19:10.create more jobs. What we see now is the chief executive officer of a
:19:11. > :19:14.pharmaceutical giant taking a position on events over the weekend
:19:15. > :19:21.and the response of the President to those events. He talked about having
:19:22. > :19:25.to step down from the council as a matter of personal conscience. The
:19:26. > :19:28.question now in boardrooms across America is what do other chief
:19:29. > :19:32.executive officers do? Are they in a position where they have to take a
:19:33. > :19:41.stand? We are starting to hear some responses. Many of the big names,
:19:42. > :19:47.General Electric, Pepsi, just to name a couple, condemning what they
:19:48. > :19:51.saw as violence by white supremacists, saying they are not in
:19:52. > :19:57.support of hatred and bigotry, but that being said, many of these firms
:19:58. > :20:00.also choosing to stay on board of these policy-making committees,
:20:01. > :20:06.saying they think they have a role to play, and for now are seeing with
:20:07. > :20:10.the President. It is usually a great opportunity to be able to have fifth
:20:11. > :20:17.year of the President, to go into the White House, to sit on one of
:20:18. > :20:21.these councils. Yes, Campbells soup, one of the companies on this council
:20:22. > :20:27.gave as an interesting statement, this is a consumer facing company
:20:28. > :20:30.that potentially could be subject to criticism, depending on how the
:20:31. > :20:35.public views their actions, what positions they take. They
:20:36. > :20:40.specifically came out and said, we think we can do more by being at the
:20:41. > :20:44.table, having played voice at the table, therefore they want to stay.
:20:45. > :20:53.We also heard from one of the unions coming forward, saying, they are on
:20:54. > :20:56.the manufacturing committee, they have not met match, they do not do
:20:57. > :21:01.what they do. We are still assessing how the business community is
:21:02. > :21:09.reacting, meantime investors are not to these, the pharmaceutical
:21:10. > :21:15.company's share price was up to be. One other business story. The value
:21:16. > :21:20.of the digital currency Bitcoin is surging, it is now trading at more
:21:21. > :21:25.than $4000 per piece, its value has quadrupled since the start of the
:21:26. > :21:28.year, it was created electronically, nor one controls the currency, but a
:21:29. > :21:33.lot of businesses including retailers and stores do except that,
:21:34. > :21:39.experts say its popularity is growing. In a couple of months there
:21:40. > :21:46.will be companies that will launch a credit card that will carry other
:21:47. > :21:53.currencies, you will be able to in theory spends bitcoin using your
:21:54. > :21:57.credit card. The film industry at the advent of the internet, the
:21:58. > :22:07.banking industry, incumbency does nothing, others see, they would
:22:08. > :22:10.hedge their bets. India and Pakistan are marking 70
:22:11. > :22:15.years of independence from Britain which came after nearly 200 years of
:22:16. > :22:19.colonial rule. A view of the pictures coming in from the usual
:22:20. > :22:26.today. These from Pakistan Vassell ablutions began at the stroke of
:22:27. > :22:37.midnight, Sunday night. -- from Pakistan where celebrations began at
:22:38. > :22:44.the stroke of midnight. We have got a fly-past by the
:22:45. > :22:48.Pakistan air force. It is now Independence Day, it is Tuesday in
:22:49. > :22:52.India, we will be showing more of that in our next edition of Outside
:22:53. > :22:56.Source. Let us remind you of what happened seventh decade ago. This is
:22:57. > :23:02.what the region that bike at the time. After months of political
:23:03. > :23:06.deadlock but agreed to divide the country in two, the state of
:23:07. > :23:11.Pakistan was created off to the West and East of India, triggering
:23:12. > :23:15.perhaps the biggest movement of people outside of war and famine
:23:16. > :23:25.that the world has ever seen. We think it was about 12 million people
:23:26. > :23:28.who became refugees, who fled the violence, communities targeting each
:23:29. > :23:31.other. 1 million people are thought to have died. We can no speak to
:23:32. > :23:40.somebody who was watching these events, a film director whose family
:23:41. > :23:43.went to partition. She has been attending a peace rally in India
:23:44. > :23:49.this evening. Thank you for joining us on Outside Source. Everybody has
:23:50. > :23:58.a personal story that you have said you feel you grew up in the shadow
:23:59. > :24:04.of partition. Yes, absolutely. My grandmother 70 years ago was living
:24:05. > :24:11.in her home with her five small children, and overnight virtually
:24:12. > :24:16.the violence started, and one day and Indian Army truck came and said,
:24:17. > :24:23.get on this track now, and she had to leave her home, and for three
:24:24. > :24:29.days she was on a train, could not get off, no food, no water, her milk
:24:30. > :24:34.dried up, her youngest child died of starvation. She was in a refugee
:24:35. > :24:42.camp for many months until finally my grandmother -- my grandfather
:24:43. > :24:50.actually found her. That is a personal experience of partition.
:24:51. > :24:56.All my ankles and and and no elderly -- all my uncles and ants are now
:24:57. > :25:18.elderly. -- and aunts are now elderly.
:25:19. > :25:28.I have been here doing promotions. Everywhere there is lots of flag
:25:29. > :25:36.weaving. But this evening I attended a candlelit vigil at the border,
:25:37. > :25:40.with this organisation, who look to promote peace between India and
:25:41. > :25:51.Pakistan, and it was a sobering event. The area was very heavy. I
:25:52. > :25:55.have been to that ceremony before which is very jingoistic, but today
:25:56. > :25:59.to be standing in the place of 70 years ago people were coming
:26:00. > :26:02.through... I am sorry, we had to leave it there as we are finishing
:26:03. > :26:15.the programme. Thank you for being with us on Outside Source.
