the deteriorating security situation there. Ben Remfrey is trappdd in the | :00:18. | :00:20. | |
capital Tripoli, after a string of violent clashes over the wedkend | :00:21. | :00:23. | |
prompted by political unrest in the country. He was working in Libya to | :00:24. | :00:27. | |
destroy and clear ammunition and is now coming up with an evacu`tion | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
plan for himself and his st`ff. Penny Elderfield reports. GTN SHOTS. | :00:31. | :00:35. | |
A familiar sound here in recent days, as fighting has spread across | :00:36. | :00:38. | |
the Libyan city of Tripoli, following an attack at the weekend | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
on the country's interim Parliament. Described as some of the worst | :00:42. | :00:44. | |
violence seen here in recent years. And caught up in it, local lan Ben | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
Remfrey, who's working in the Saharan desert locating and clearing | :00:49. | :01:01. | |
ammunition. The site of the task `` the size and the task in hand is | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
immense. Gaddafi collected ` lot of weapons and had storage are` is | :01:08. | :01:13. | |
built. The northern Sahara hs one huge ammunition depot. Can xou hear | :01:14. | :01:18. | |
and see much from where you are now? I can, yeah. The fighthng has | :01:19. | :01:25. | |
been going backwards and forwards around Tripoli, but it has hts peaks | :01:26. | :01:31. | |
and troughs. One moment it hs fairly quiet, it was eerily quiet this | :01:32. | :01:36. | |
morning after fighting all night and then kicked off again. Are xou safe | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
at the moment? I am in a villa, it is pretty secure. I am fairly happy | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
and I have spent the majority of today putting together an evacuation | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
plan and if needed I will evacuate my staff. That's a plan he think | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
he'll put into action tomorrow. After which Ben will also look to | :01:57. | :02:00. | |
leave Tripoli temporarily if he can later this week. Meanwhile, more | :02:01. | :02:03. | |
action is being taken by Jersey finance companies to freeze the | :02:04. | :02:06. | |
assets of people involved in the dispute in Ukraine. An order from | :02:07. | :02:09. | |
the UK has been extended to Jersey, so that companies know which | :02:10. | :02:12. | |
individuals to take action `gainst. It's the latest in a series of | :02:13. | :02:15. | |
measures introduced in Jersdy, following UK guidelines, after the | :02:16. | :02:17. | |
outbreak of hostilities between Ukraine and Russia. The two men | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
accused of defrauding the States of Guernsey out of ?2.6 million have | :02:26. | :02:28. | |
re`appeared at Southwark Crown Court. Fifty`six`year`old John | :02:29. | :02:30. | |
Anthony Woodhatch from Essex and 44`year`old Adrian Taylor from Kent | :02:31. | :02:33. | |
face charges of conspiracy to defraud and money laundering.They | :02:34. | :02:36. | |
have been bailed again and will re`appear on 25th June. Neither has | :02:37. | :02:45. | |
yet entered a plea. A furthdr witness has given evidence hn the | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
trial of Richard de Wit, thd man accused of murdering Sarah Groves in | :02:49. | :02:52. | |
Kashmir just over a year ago.The 24`year`old Guernsey woman was | :02:53. | :02:55. | |
stabbed to death on a houseboat in April last year. De Wit denhes the | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
charges. The trial's been plagued by delays with today's witness, | :02:59. | :03:01. | |
Muhammad Shalla, being just the 12th on a list of 40 witnesses. The UK | :03:02. | :03:09. | |
Government won't be funding a ten million pound upgrade to Wexmouth's | :03:10. | :03:12. | |
harbour, despite an appeal from the town's MP. Richard Drax met with the | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
Transport Minister Stephen Hammond earlier today, where he was told | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
they don't have the money to fund the upgrade. This means that if | :03:20. | :03:22. | |
Condor does buy a new "Trim`ran vessel, it's likely that it won t | :03:23. | :03:25. | |
fit into Weymouth's harbour, forcing travellers to and from the Channel | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
Islands to use Poole or Portsmouth instead. But as was being the case | :03:29. | :03:38. | |
that the council is working with Condor, of course they are there | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
will continue to do so. We will talk with everyone involved to sde if we | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
can find a solution. The will continue. Guernsey's St John's | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
Ambulance says it would be willing to step in and help their Jdrsey | :03:53. | :03:56. | |
counterparts if they cannot recruit enough volunteers to providd first | :03:57. | :03:59. | |
aid for the Island Games next year. They need to double the amotnt of | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
first aiders they currently have to cover the event comfortably. But | :04:04. | :04:05. | |
they haven't had enough intdrest so far. That's in stark contrast to the | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
appeal for Gamesmakers. Applications for that opportunity will close | :04:09. | :04:12. | |
early, due to a swell of interest. Emma Chambers reports. The Hsland | :04:13. | :04:14. | |
Games. Where there's compethtion, there's the risk of injury. | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
Competitors suffered heat exhaustion and some had to be stretchered off | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
the track in Bermuda last ydar. If people need help in Jersey next | :04:25. | :04:27. | |
summer, St John's Ambulance will be providing first aid. But although | :04:28. | :04:30. | |
they are prepared, there's not enough of them. They have 50 | :04:31. | :04:33. | |
members, but need double th`t to cover the 4,000 people attending the | :04:34. | :04:42. | |
Games. It is going to stretch us at the moment. This is why we need more | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
members. We get support frol the Ambulance Service and I think the | :04:49. | :04:52. | |
big thing is to consider, whth the Island Games coming over, if there | :04:53. | :04:56. | |
is no first aid cover, you will draw on resources from the Ambul`nce | :04:57. | :05:00. | |
Service. So that's why they are desperate to recruit enough | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
volunteers. But if they can't, they have to seek help from overseas The | :05:04. | :05:06. | |
St John volunteers are used to helping each other out, espdcially | :05:07. | :05:11. | |
across the islands. When we held the Island Games in 2003, we had the | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
same problems with a big evdnt like that, we need a large number of | :05:18. | :05:22. | |
volunteers. We opened it up to Jersey and a number of people from | :05:23. | :05:26. | |
Jersey came here and we opened it up to the UK and we had voluntders from | :05:27. | :05:30. | |
there also. Some first aid training will be | :05:31. | :05:33. | |
offered to Gamesmakers, but it's not the same depth as the nine lonths of | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
training offered by St John's Ambulance, and won't be enotgh to | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
fill the shortfall. The levdl of training that they will givd to | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
people is much higher than the level that we are planning for our | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
Gamesmakers. As a consequence, it will be a legacy item that people | :05:50. | :05:54. | |
can take away and other events can benefit from it. The recruitment for | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
Gamesmakers has been so successful, the application window is closing a | :05:59. | :06:01. | |
month early. St John's Ambulance need some of that volunteerhng | :06:02. | :06:04. | |
spirit to head their way in time for the Games. People have until | :06:05. | :06:07. | |
September before the opporttnity for first aid training closes. | :06:08. | :06:13. | |
Guernsey's Heather Watson h`s moved back into the World Top 100 tennis | :06:14. | :06:17. | |
players after winning the Prague Open. Heather beat Anna Schliedlova | :06:18. | :06:20. | |
in straight sets to claim hdr second ITF tournament win of the ydar. The | :06:21. | :06:24. | |
victory puts Watson at 92 in the world rankings and British Number | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
two. She'll now enter the qtalifying rounds of the French Open. Newsnight | :06:28. | :06:30. | |
starting now over on BBC Two, I ll leave you with the weather `nd David | :06:31. | :06:32. | |
Braine. The risk of showers continuds all | :06:33. | :06:42. | |
the way through this week. Outside of the showers, some warm stnshine | :06:43. | :06:46. | |
and it will be warm tomorrow. Showers through the morning, a bit | :06:47. | :06:51. | |
drier in the afternoon and the risk of thunder. That risk is with us | :06:52. | :06:57. | |
overnight tonight. We could see a sharp downpour of rain. Quite a mild | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
night. A milder day tomorrow but with the risk of scattered showers | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
through the morning, a few hn the early part of the afternoon, but | :07:07. | :07:13. | |
warm sunshine at the end of the day. The outlook stays unsettled, on | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
Wednesday we are close to some showers. The risk of showers | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
continues on Thursday and Friday. In a second, a full forecast for the | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
UK, from ask though, it is good night. I will leave you | :07:30. | :07:30. | |
