Hello. This is BBC World News. Our top stories: Ukraine issues an | :00:00. | :00:11. | |
arrest warrant for ousted President Viktor Yanukovych over the killing | :00:12. | :00:15. | |
of protesters. Uganda's President Museveni signs a | :00:16. | :00:17. | |
controversial new law giving homosexuals longer prison sentences. | :00:18. | :00:24. | |
As the UN condemns both sides in South Sudan for widespread human | :00:25. | :00:27. | |
rights abuses - we have a special report from the town of Bor. This | :00:28. | :00:37. | |
trench that they don't is beginner to take 250 bodies, it isn't full | :00:38. | :00:42. | |
yet. Just over here, there are two of the trenches and they both have | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
been filled in. And the oldest remaining holocaust | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
survivor dies in London at 110 years old. | :00:51. | :01:08. | |
Ukraine's parliament has approved an arrest warrant for former president | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
Victor Yanukovych. Earlier the interior ministry issued the warrant | :01:15. | :01:16. | |
for mass murder, saying Mr Yanukovych was responsible for the | :01:17. | :01:19. | |
deaths of scores of protesters over the past weeks. Meanwhile in an | :01:20. | :01:25. | |
effort to establish order in the country, the parliament is in | :01:26. | :01:28. | |
session, discussing the formation of a government of national unity. My | :01:29. | :01:31. | |
colleague, Tim Willcox, who's in Kiev, says calm has returned to the | :01:32. | :01:40. | |
capital. There really is a feeling that things are getting back to | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
normal. Over here, this is the Kiev police station here, people are | :01:47. | :01:51. | |
going in and on the streets, cars are moving and you are seeing | :01:52. | :01:54. | |
demonstrators and protesters working alongside traffic police, keeping | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
the traffic flowing through the centre of Kiev. Here, you can see | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
the barricades are still in place, the demonstrators are in control, | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
people are really wanting to start afresh week in a new Ukraine. This | :02:10. | :02:16. | |
is one of the main routes down to Maidan, Independence Square, if you | :02:17. | :02:20. | |
look at the streets, cars are driving up and down, children have | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
gone back to school, people are going back to work. Do you think the | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
revolution is over now? Do you think things are going to get back to | :02:31. | :02:53. | |
normal? TRANSLATION: Life is getting back to normal already, right now in | :02:54. | :02:59. | |
these moments. But will it get back to normal? It depends mostly on the | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
presidential elections and their outcome, and they are ongoing. Here | :03:06. | :03:13. | |
in Maidan, Independence Square, the numbers have drained away | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
significantly. Flowers are still here, a few people are saying | :03:17. | :03:20. | |
prayers and lighting candles, but the people who have died, but | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
compare the scene here today to what it was yesterday and a few days ago. | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
There really is a sense that this revolution now is completely in | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
control, these are moving forward and now it is down to the | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
politicians to work out how to take Ukraine and this whole process | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
forward. The big question remains, where is the former president? That | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
is still unknown. Our reporter is internets, in the east of Ukraine, a | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
city where Mr Yanukovych has had a lot of support. The now ex-president | :03:55. | :04:02. | |
was born close to this city where we are, in southeastern Ukraine, a | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
couple of hours drive from the Russian border. He was governor of | :04:07. | :04:09. | |
this region a decade ago, and this is one of his many homes in | :04:10. | :04:14. | |
Ukraine. The huge gated complex on this great, but call me naive, I | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
think there are worse places to see where he is. Let's see if there is | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
any response. Surprise, surprise, nobody home. | :04:25. | :04:37. | |
This is an area which is predominantly Russian speaking. It | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
will take very badly indeed to comments from the interim president | :04:44. | :04:50. | |
to moving Ukraine closer to the EU. Whoever tries to lead the country | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
forward will have the huge task of uniting a polarised nation, these | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
people here who look more towards the east and those in the West to | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
look more towards the EU. In the meantime, the hunt for Viktor | :05:03. | :05:07. | |
Yanukovych goes on. There are rumours he tried to fly from this | :05:08. | :05:11. | |
city, Donetsk, to Russia over the weekend but the Customs officials | :05:12. | :05:15. | |
here stopped his plane. People trying to find where he is, but the | :05:16. | :05:23. | |
focus has shifted to what happens next and who leads forward this | :05:24. | :05:25. | |
deeply wounded and fractured country. The former president, | :05:26. | :05:33. | |
Timmer Schenkel, is one of the people who has been mentioned. The | :05:34. | :05:44. | |
German Chancellor spoke to her. I asked my colleague if that phone | :05:45. | :05:48. | |
call and to put the school -- amounted to political endorsement. | :05:49. | :05:55. | |
Her words were, welcome to freedom, in other words, we have been | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
concerned about you. She has voiced her concern in the past. But it was | :06:00. | :06:05. | |
not an endorsement of her as the political leader of Ukraine. | :06:06. | :06:12. | |
Chancellor Merkel also spoke to President Putin, that was possibly a | :06:13. | :06:19. | |
more important call. She said, let's get stability, let's make sure that | :06:20. | :06:23. | |
Ukraine stays together, the territorial integrity is the phrase | :06:24. | :06:30. | |
that both leaders agreed on. The spectre that has been raised here in | :06:31. | :06:35. | |
Berlin, which is 900 kilometres from Ukraine, is of a Yugoslavian | :06:36. | :06:43. | |
situation, where an unstable situation in the into Civil War and | :06:44. | :06:51. | |
the splitting up of the country. Chancellor Merkel is keen to get | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
President Putin on board to preserve a situation and stop it sending into | :06:55. | :07:04. | |
true chaos. In the last half an hour, the Ugandan President signed | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
into law tough new penalties against homosexuality. The new legislation | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
now means that homosexuals could be given life long prison terms. Yoweri | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
Museveni signed the bill during a press conference close to the | :07:18. | :07:19. | |
capital Kampala. Dennis Wamala is Programme Director | :07:20. | :07:22. | |
at Icebreaker's Uganda. An organisation that provides education | :07:23. | :07:24. | |
and support for sexual minority groups. He joins us on the phone | :07:25. | :07:33. | |
line. Thanks very much for joining us. What is your reaction to the | :07:34. | :07:42. | |
signing of this Bill? I am very saddened by the actions of my | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
beloved president. We have been trying to meet him so he can listen | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
to the voice of the people he is trying to give away to the prisons | :07:50. | :07:55. | |
and he has refused to meet us over and over again. I'm saddened and | :07:56. | :08:03. | |
disappointed. How is this going to affect life for people that you | :08:04. | :08:09. | |
advise and support? Already, it has been very difficult for us, for us, | :08:10. | :08:18. | |
people being arrested and blackmailed and being kept in jail | :08:19. | :08:25. | |
for a long time. People are being bitten on the streets, detained | :08:26. | :08:32. | |
without trial, and now everyone believes they have the right to beat | :08:33. | :08:38. | |
homosexuals. It is going to mob justice. Also, one of the provisions | :08:39. | :08:46. | |
of the new law as I understand it is you have two report gay people as | :08:47. | :08:52. | |
well, it is a crime if you don't. So people who are not gay being | :08:53. | :08:58. | |
affected by this as well. Mainly councillors and health workers, | :08:59. | :09:03. | |
because it is confidential, so it means that medical practitioners who | :09:04. | :09:11. | |
do not report gay people, then it is going to be... They are not going to | :09:12. | :09:18. | |
want to deal with gay people because they will get themselves in trouble. | :09:19. | :09:24. | |
The problem is this law is actually popular in Uganda, isn't it? Yes, it | :09:25. | :09:34. | |
is, because the movement in Uganda hasn't had the possibility of | :09:35. | :09:44. | |
education in the country are so everybody... We are not like Western | :09:45. | :09:48. | |
people, so it is popular because people haven't been given the chance | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
to be educated and listen to the LGB T community. Thank you for joining | :09:54. | :10:02. | |
us live on the line from Uganda. In the last half hour Egypt's interim | :10:03. | :10:05. | |
prime minister has announced that his Cabinet has resigned. Hazem | :10:06. | :10:07. | |
el-Beblawi's government, backed by the military, took office in July, | :10:08. | :10:11. | |
less than two weeks after the army overthrew the Islamist President, | :10:12. | :10:14. | |
Mohammed Morsi. Our correspondent has been following events in Cairo. | :10:15. | :10:21. | |
Prime Minister Hazem el-Beblawi did not state why he resigned, he didn't | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
state a clear reason to what pushed his government to make such a | :10:27. | :10:30. | |
decision at a critical time, when the country is expecting | :10:31. | :10:32. | |
presidential elections in a couple of months. But his government has | :10:33. | :10:37. | |
been severely criticised during the past weeks as being weak and | :10:38. | :10:44. | |
incompetent. We have lots of strikes in Cairo and in the sector of | :10:45. | :10:48. | |
transportation, in the sector of tech tours. -- textiles. So what the | :10:49. | :10:57. | |
Prime Minister said, that they came to power at a very critical time and | :10:58. | :11:02. | |
they managed to get Egypt out of the dark tunnel, that is what he said, | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
he feels like leaving his post now after the completion of the first | :11:07. | :11:14. | |
phase of the road map. He is referring here to the Constitution | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
that has just been written. Stay with us, still to come: China's | :11:20. | :11:25. | |
fight for fresh egg gets creative. Can art make pollution a thing of | :11:26. | :11:27. | |
the past? -- fresh air. Professional sport in the US has | :11:28. | :11:38. | |
broken new ground thanks to this guy, his name is Jason Collins and | :11:39. | :11:42. | |
has become the first openly gay competitive sportsman in a major | :11:43. | :11:54. | |
sports league. This is the man who has become the | :11:55. | :12:00. | |
first openly gay athlete to play in America's professional basketball | :12:01. | :12:05. | |
league. In fact, he is the first gay athlete to play in any of the | :12:06. | :12:10. | |
country's four major professional sports leagues, including baseball, | :12:11. | :12:19. | |
football and hockey. After playing professionally for a dozen years, | :12:20. | :12:23. | |
she has revealed in April that he is gay in this sport illustrated | :12:24. | :12:29. | |
article. This is Jason Collins arriving to a state dinner has a | :12:30. | :12:33. | |
guest of first lady Michelle Obama. When he came out at the end of last | :12:34. | :12:36. | |
season, he also received support from other players, including Kobe | :12:37. | :12:43. | |
Bryant, but he was a free agent and had remained unsigned. Today, the | :12:44. | :12:49. | |
NBA team Brooklyn net tweeted that it has signed into a ten day | :12:50. | :12:53. | |
contract. In a statement, the team's general manager said: | :12:54. | :13:06. | |
there is also a lot of attention on this man, a leading American | :13:07. | :13:14. | |
footballer. He has announced that he is gay as well. He completed a | :13:15. | :13:20. | |
promising career in current -- college football. He is expected to | :13:21. | :13:23. | |
be chosen by an National Football League team in May, that would make | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
in the NFL's first openly gay player next season. | :13:29. | :13:41. | |
This is BBC world News. The headlines: Ukraine's interim | :13:42. | :13:48. | |
authorities are seeking the rest of the ousted president Viktor | :13:49. | :13:52. | |
Yanukovych for what they say is mass murder of peaceful civilians. The | :13:53. | :13:54. | |
Interior Ministry said he was last seen in Ukraine's Crimean insula. | :13:55. | :14:02. | |
The President of Uganda has signed a new anti-gay law despite | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
international protests. The bill could see homosexuals serve longer | :14:07. | :14:11. | |
prison sentences. In South Sudan, civilians are | :14:12. | :14:14. | |
continuing to flee the town of Bor, in fear of their lives. Hundreds of | :14:15. | :14:17. | |
people were killed there during recent ethnic violence. A UN report | :14:18. | :14:21. | |
accuses both government forces and rebels of committing human rights | :14:22. | :14:24. | |
abuses including mass killings and rape. The violence began in December | :14:25. | :14:28. | |
last year when a faction led by the country's Vice President tried to | :14:29. | :14:31. | |
take control of several key towns. George Alagiah has been to Bor, to | :14:32. | :14:35. | |
see the impact of the conflict on a population belonging largely to the | :14:36. | :14:38. | |
Dinka tribe. His report contains scenes you may find disturbing. The | :14:39. | :14:47. | |
details of what happened here may be disputed, but the consequences are | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
self evident. It is if a hurricane had ripped through the town, except | :14:53. | :14:55. | |
this devastation is entirely man-made. We were escorted by | :14:56. | :15:02. | |
government troops who now control Bor. It has changed hands four times | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
in the recent fighting with rebel forces. Each time, there have been | :15:07. | :15:15. | |
hundreds of civilian casualties. It is only now that the bodies are | :15:16. | :15:20. | |
being collected. This trench that they have dug is big enough to take | :15:21. | :15:26. | |
250 bodies. It isn't fully aired, but just over here there two other | :15:27. | :15:33. | |
trenches, and they have both been building. -- it is not full yet. The | :15:34. | :15:40. | |
mayor of Bor joined us. He said he has evidence of what the rebels left | :15:41. | :15:47. | |
in their wake. These are crimes against your Mathy which were | :15:48. | :15:49. | |
committed by the rebel forces. Women were raped, elderly executed. -- | :15:50. | :15:58. | |
crimes against humanity. Tell me, who are the people in this grave? | :15:59. | :16:05. | |
These are members of the Dinka ethnicity that were targeted by the | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
rebel forces when NATO over the town. I obviously cannot verify | :16:09. | :16:17. | |
everything he has said. I have to take it on trust that the vast | :16:18. | :16:20. | |
majority of people are members of the Dinka tribe, but what is beyond | :16:21. | :16:26. | |
doubt is that there was indiscriminate killing here in Bor. | :16:27. | :16:30. | |
The fear that it might happen again, that is still running strong. Even | :16:31. | :16:37. | |
now, they are leaving, trying to take boats over the river. People in | :16:38. | :16:42. | |
the newest nation on earth reduced to refugees in their own land. | :16:43. | :16:48. | |
TRANSLATION: All I want to do is get my child out of danger and take her | :16:49. | :16:52. | |
somewhere safer, like a camp. I can wait out the danger and come back. | :16:53. | :16:57. | |
At this church, they remember the two pastors who were among those | :16:58. | :17:03. | |
killed. Nothing, it seems, is sacred in this conflict. George Alagiah, | :17:04. | :17:08. | |
BBC News. OK, I want to bring you some other | :17:09. | :17:12. | |
stories that are making news around the world. A top Pakistani Taliban | :17:13. | :17:19. | |
commander has been shot dead in the militant stronghold of North | :17:20. | :17:22. | |
Waziristan according to security sources. Reports say he was ambushed | :17:23. | :17:26. | |
as he was driving through a village. Two other people also died. It is | :17:27. | :17:32. | |
unclear who killed them. The head of the army in Thailand | :17:33. | :17:35. | |
says the military will not intervene with falls in the country's | :17:36. | :17:39. | |
political crisis despite worsening violence which has left four people | :17:40. | :17:49. | |
dead, including two children. -- force. He said it was hard to know | :17:50. | :17:58. | |
who was on which side. Activists in Syria say a senior | :17:59. | :18:01. | |
rebel commander linked to al-Qaeda has been killed in a suicide attack | :18:02. | :18:04. | |
in Aleppo. The Islamist commander known as Abu Khaled al-Suri was | :18:05. | :18:07. | |
among several people believed to have been killed when militants | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
attacked his group's compound. Italy's new Prime Minister is | :18:11. | :18:12. | |
setting out priorities. Matteo Renzi will address the country's senate | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
later, top of his agenda likely to be reforming the economy. It's the | :18:17. | :18:20. | |
third largest in the eurozone and has 13% unemployment rate. | :18:21. | :18:29. | |
The new government, which was sworn in on Saturday, will have to win two | :18:30. | :18:32. | |
confidence votes before it can officially start working. | :18:33. | :18:34. | |
In Zimbabwe, President Robert Mugabe has been celebrating his 90th | :18:35. | :18:37. | |
birthday over the weekend, making him the world's second oldest | :18:38. | :18:40. | |
statesman after Shimon Peres. His birthday partys have never been | :18:41. | :18:47. | |
low-key affairs, and the latest one lived up to expectations. Africa's | :18:48. | :18:51. | |
Allders leader has been widely criticised for lavish spending in a | :18:52. | :18:57. | |
country battling a shrinking economy and huge job losses. -- oldest | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
leader. Thousands turned out to wish Robert | :19:03. | :19:06. | |
Mugabe a happy birthday. Looking refreshed after an eye operation in | :19:07. | :19:11. | |
Singapore, Africa's oldest statesman waved at the crowd, which was mostly | :19:12. | :19:16. | |
made up of schoolchildren. They greeted him enthusiastic in, | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
chanting his clan name. -- enthusiastic league. The president | :19:23. | :19:30. | |
and his wife Grace released balloons to mark his birthday. When he | :19:31. | :19:34. | |
spoke, he did not have any warm words for his former colonial | :19:35. | :19:39. | |
masters. The British, we don't hate you. We only love our country. We | :19:40. | :19:51. | |
love our country better. We love ourselves better than we love you. | :19:52. | :19:58. | |
Robert Mugabe has outfoxed and outlived most of his enemies, and | :19:59. | :20:03. | |
many rumours about his death. He is in remarkably good shape for a | :20:04. | :20:06. | |
90-year-old, and his hour-long speech demonstrated his astounding | :20:07. | :20:11. | |
presence of mind, but not many people can argue about his | :20:12. | :20:14. | |
contribution to Zimbabwe's liberation struggle, but his | :20:15. | :20:18. | |
controversial legacy will no doubt follow him to the grave and beyond. | :20:19. | :20:26. | |
I, Robert Mugabe... He became a hero for leading the struggle to | :20:27. | :20:32. | |
independence. In the beginning, he preached reconciliation and promised | :20:33. | :20:41. | |
Zimbabweans prosperity, but Zimbabwe suffered severe poverty and | :20:42. | :20:44. | |
hyperinflation. The economy collapsed when he ordered the | :20:45. | :20:49. | |
takeover of white owned farms. There is now a thriving black middle-class | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
here. That is largely thanks to the scrapping of the local currency in | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
favour of the US dollar. But the country will need a lot of | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
investment to get it back on track. The former finance minister never | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
imagined that things would turn out this way. Certainly, I never | :21:11. | :21:16. | |
envisaged I would have to dodge potholes in the streets of the city | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
of Harare, that we would have to spend long hours without power in | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
our homes and factories and offices. Back at the party, far away from the | :21:27. | :21:31. | |
country's problems, Mugabe supporters eat cake. But for many | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
other Zimbabweans, it is not a time to celebrate. They can only | :21:37. | :21:47. | |
contemplate a post-Mugabe future. In the US, the television network | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
CNN says it is ending the prime-time talk show posted by Piers Morgan. | :21:51. | :21:56. | |
The British presenter had infuriated conservatives during his three-year | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
run on CNN with his support for gun control. Is shown never really | :22:00. | :22:05. | |
attracted big ratings. He was also recently questioned by local police | :22:06. | :22:10. | |
in connection with accusations of phone hacking at the Daily Mirror | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
newspaper. -- his show. Severe smog is smothering many parts | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
of China once again. To help combat it, the government has sent out | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
teams of investigators to inspect large factories, including those | :22:24. | :22:25. | |
producing steel, coal and cement, to ensure they're not breaching rules. | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
The government wants to be seen improving air quality, amid a | :22:30. | :22:34. | |
backlash from citizens. One prominent campaign was led by an | :22:35. | :22:37. | |
artist, as the BBC's Celia Hatton explains. | :22:38. | :22:45. | |
Inside her freezing, cavernous house just outside Beijing, this artist | :22:46. | :22:51. | |
stores hundreds of her paintings. They document every chapter in her | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
personal life. A visual diary, she explains. TRANSLATION: I used to be | :22:57. | :23:05. | |
a lawyer, then I became an artist. Our society needs genuine | :23:06. | :23:08. | |
expressions of people's fear and confusion about life. 11 of her | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
canvases stand apart from the rest. The so-called smog series show her | :23:15. | :23:21. | |
frustrations with China's poisonous air pollution. And she has taken | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
them to the streets, setting up impromptu shows and handing out | :23:26. | :23:29. | |
facemasks last year. Months later, she posed with one of the paintings | :23:30. | :23:34. | |
in Tiananmen Square. The photos soon appeared on the Chinese version of | :23:35. | :23:38. | |
Twitter, although many posts were deleted by government censors. | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
Facemasks like this one are relatively common among Chinese | :23:44. | :23:45. | |
industrialised areas, particularly when the air is so thick with smoke | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
that your eyes and the back of your throat burn after spending time | :23:51. | :23:53. | |
outside. It is pollution like this that infuriated many in China, and | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
even though political protests are banned in China, some, like the | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
artist herself, finding creative ways to vent their anger. In | :24:04. | :24:09. | |
December, students in central China staged an elaborate street | :24:10. | :24:11. | |
performance. They wanted to illustrate what it feels like to be | :24:12. | :24:17. | |
choking on smog, they explain. Online, amateur illustrators posed | :24:18. | :24:21. | |
cartoons, like this one, showing smog essentials. -- post. Those who | :24:22. | :24:26. | |
comment on China's pollution risk attracting unwanted attention from | :24:27. | :24:32. | |
the state. The artist is careful to explain the differences between | :24:33. | :24:34. | |
anti-government protesters and artists like her. TRANSLATION: My | :24:35. | :24:41. | |
paintings are memories I want to leave for the next generation. In | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
100 years, I hope people will be inspired by my artwork. She wants to | :24:46. | :24:52. | |
believe that some day China's pollution problems will be a thing | :24:53. | :24:56. | |
of the past. Many like her are doing what they can to ensure the | :24:57. | :24:59. | |
government's ambitious plans to clean up the air are put into | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
action. Now, a woman who was believed to | :25:05. | :25:09. | |
have been the oldest remaining Holocaust survivor has died in | :25:10. | :25:12. | |
London. She was an accomplished pianist, her name was Alice | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
Herz-Sommer, and she was 110 years old. Death comes just one week | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
before a documentary about her extraordinary story could win an | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
Oscar. -- her death. Grainne Harrington looks back at the story | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
of her life. Until her final days Alice | :25:33. | :25:38. | |
Herz-Sommer's passion for music never waned. A documentary tracing | :25:39. | :25:42. | |
her incredible life story has been nominated for an award at next | :25:43. | :25:49. | |
month's Oscars. My world is music. I am not interested in anything else. | :25:50. | :25:58. | |
Born into a Jewish family in Prague in 1903, she spent two years in a | :25:59. | :26:02. | |
Nazi concentration camp in Theresienstadt, where she was | :26:03. | :26:05. | |
allowed to continue playing her beloved piano. Although she | :26:06. | :26:09. | |
survived, she suffered terrible losses. Her elderly mother was | :26:10. | :26:13. | |
killed in Treblinka, and her husband died in Dachau. She said music kept | :26:14. | :26:18. | |
her alive and the optimism which sustained her through the Holocaust | :26:19. | :26:22. | |
never left her. Every day, my life is beautiful. Every day. It is | :26:23. | :26:32. | |
beautiful! Alice Herz-Sommer, who has died aged | :26:33. | :26:37. | |
110. A reminder of the main news: The Ukrainian interim government has | :26:38. | :26:41. | |
issued an arrest warrant for Viktor Yanukovych. According to the new | :26:42. | :26:45. | |
interior minister, he was last seen in the Crimean region of the | :26:46. | :26:49. | |
country. Meanwhile, the European Union foreign policy chief is | :26:50. | :26:53. | |
arriving in Kiev to discuss economic support for the country. That is it | :26:54. | :26:56. | |
