:00:42. > :01:16.mining disaster. Hello. 24 hours after staging a
:01:17. > :01:20.military coup in Thailand, the country has -- the military has
:01:21. > :01:25.moved quickly to strengthen its grip on power. The military leader has
:01:26. > :01:28.declared himself Prime Minister. He has already summoned the former
:01:29. > :01:34.Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra to an army base. Our reporter has
:01:35. > :01:40.more. On this, the second day of the coup, Thailand's political leaders
:01:41. > :01:44.were summoned to a military building in the centre of Bangkok. Amongst
:01:45. > :01:50.them, the former Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra. The Army
:01:51. > :01:57.ordered them to attend a meeting here or face arrest, and said they
:01:58. > :02:01.cannot leave the country. The worrying thing from the point of
:02:02. > :02:05.view as the Army is that they want to prevent the establishment of any
:02:06. > :02:08.form of opposition overseas, or any form of exile government or
:02:09. > :02:13.opposition internally, so they are going to crackdown on political
:02:14. > :02:18.actors. In another key step to exert their control, troops this morning
:02:19. > :02:21.took down the protest camps of the pro and anti-government groups who
:02:22. > :02:26.have been demonstrating on the streets of Bangkok for months,
:02:27. > :02:30.causing political deadlock. The military seems determined to prevent
:02:31. > :02:34.any opposition to the coup developing, even though its takeover
:02:35. > :02:39.has been condemned by some of Thailand's most important allies.
:02:40. > :02:45.The Secretary of State has said there is no he has called for the
:02:46. > :02:50.immediate restoration of civilian authority. I might add, Secretary
:02:51. > :02:54.Kelly has called for a review of all US assistance and engagement with
:02:55. > :03:00.Thailand, especially with the Thai military. These initial days of the
:03:01. > :03:05.coup have remained peaceful so far, with live seeming to go on quite
:03:06. > :03:07.normally. Although schools are closed and both national and
:03:08. > :03:13.international broadcasters have been taken off the air here.
:03:14. > :03:17.TRANSLATION: At first I was surprised and I thought it would
:03:18. > :03:23.affect my life in many ways. But after several we thinks, I realised
:03:24. > :03:26.military protection makes me safe. I do not feel anything that affected
:03:27. > :03:34.if to happen anyway, it was just a matter of when. The army generals
:03:35. > :03:36.who seized power incest their goal is to stabilise the country and
:03:37. > :03:44.implements the form. But it is a very high risk strategy which could
:03:45. > :03:48.easily backfire. -- insist. Certainly, the streets of Bangkok
:03:49. > :03:53.have been mostly calm, but just half an hour ago, our correspondent Jonah
:03:54. > :03:58.Fisher found a small demonstration calling for the Army to stand down.
:03:59. > :04:02.I am in the centre of Bangkok at the moment. Up until now, the military
:04:03. > :04:06.government has managed pretty much to stop there being any public shows
:04:07. > :04:17.of resistance against the military takeover of power here. But in the
:04:18. > :04:26.last 10- then 15 minutes, there is a sitting down protest through there.
:04:27. > :04:34.And then, if you look around this way, more demonstrators. And up
:04:35. > :04:37.here, this is the sky train. Those of you who have been to Bangkok will
:04:38. > :04:45.know that this runs right through the centre. Just a short while ago,
:04:46. > :04:49.we had soldiers around here, because this demonstration is now illegal
:04:50. > :04:55.and the rules which have been brought in by the coup authorities
:04:56. > :04:59.have made it so. There was a bit of a stand-off, they attempted to
:05:00. > :05:03.negotiate with the demonstrators, and it was quite remarkable, what we
:05:04. > :05:10.saw, the demonstrators pushed back against the soldiers, the soldiers
:05:11. > :05:21.were outnumbered, and they shouted out, elections, elections, give us
:05:22. > :05:27.back our power! If we come back through here, the official protest
:05:28. > :05:31.camps have really been disbanded now, and this is a different group
:05:32. > :05:38.of people, in many ways, expressing their frustration. What will be
:05:39. > :05:42.interesting to see is how long the military will allow this. It is also
:05:43. > :05:47.interesting looking at the pictures which you are sending us that there
:05:48. > :05:51.are no red shirts or yellow shirts, no colours to signify who these
:05:52. > :05:57.people are, might they be from both sides of the political divide? No, I
:05:58. > :06:02.do not think they are from both sides. They are certainly not from
:06:03. > :06:06.what we would broadly call the yellow shirt movement. Most of the
:06:07. > :06:11.people here are actually wearing black, they have got candles being
:06:12. > :06:16.used in that little memorial down there, I think this is more of a
:06:17. > :06:21.wake for democracy than anything else. Very brave in many ways for
:06:22. > :06:27.these people to have come out like this, because all gatherings of more
:06:28. > :06:31.than five people are now in legal in Thailand, and the military could
:06:32. > :06:35.very well decide it does not want to tolerate this. Because of the media
:06:36. > :06:41.censorship in the country, how much of this will get around the country,
:06:42. > :06:44.do you think? Through the main television stations, next to
:06:45. > :06:50.nothing, they have been taken over by the military. Some of it will be
:06:51. > :06:53.aborted in the newspapers. But it is through social media, nothing
:06:54. > :06:59.effective has yet been done to shut down social media, so pictures of
:07:00. > :07:06.this will no doubt be circulating on Facebook and Twitter. It has to be
:07:07. > :07:12.said, not a big demonstration but a show of defiance against the
:07:13. > :07:15.military leadership, and who knows, possibly something which other
:07:16. > :07:21.people will see and want to replicate for themselves. Some other
:07:22. > :07:25.stories - reports from Syria say rebels have shelled supporters of
:07:26. > :07:30.President Assad at an election gathering, killing at least 20
:07:31. > :07:34.people, many of them civilians. Syrian state media says the
:07:35. > :07:38.president was not at the gathering. The US Coastguard has announced it
:07:39. > :07:42.will be suspending the search for four British sailors if nothing is
:07:43. > :07:46.found by Friday night. The crew of the Cheeki Rafiki were sailing back
:07:47. > :07:50.to the UK from Antigua when it went missing last week.
:07:51. > :08:02.Russia has accused the West of triggering the Ukraine crisis, one
:08:03. > :08:08.day after 14 Ukraine soldiers were killed. A top general said Moscow
:08:09. > :08:13.would respond to what he described as increased NATO activity near its
:08:14. > :08:18.border. The International Criminal Court has
:08:19. > :08:21.sentenced the four Congolese military leader Germain Katanga to
:08:22. > :08:25.12 years in prison for war crimes. He is responsible for the massacre
:08:26. > :08:30.of hundreds of civilians in an attack in 2003, and has been found
:08:31. > :08:37.guilty of war crimes. He is only the second person to be convicted by the
:08:38. > :08:42.ICC since it was set up in 2002. It took the judges one hour to reach
:08:43. > :08:46.the sentencing pointed. He has been sentenced to 12 years for war crimes
:08:47. > :08:52.and crimes against humanity. The judges pointed out he has already
:08:53. > :08:56.spent 6.5 years in custody, and that time will be deducted. During the
:08:57. > :09:01.sentencing, they referred to some of the attacks, and it was one attack
:09:02. > :09:05.on a village in the early hours of the morning, when many villagers
:09:06. > :09:11.were still asleep, when these militia attacked with their machetes
:09:12. > :09:16.and guns, and the judge said the attackers literally carved up their
:09:17. > :09:20.victims limb by limb. At the end they talked about the mitigating
:09:21. > :09:25.circumstances, the fact that Germain Katanga was so young at the time, 24
:09:26. > :09:30.years old, and the fact that he has a young family, six children. Those
:09:31. > :09:33.are some of the things they discussed before reaching this
:09:34. > :09:39.second sentence in the history of the ICC. This was in 2003 - did the
:09:40. > :09:43.court discuss at all whether he may have any supporters back at home,
:09:44. > :09:55.and do we know what their potential reaction might be? The situation
:09:56. > :09:59.back in the village is of course important. This village was wiped
:10:00. > :10:04.out. The judge said their intention was to wipe the village off the map.
:10:05. > :10:07.They spoke about how many of the villagers did not want to return,
:10:08. > :10:12.all of the homes were burned down and looted, the militia stole the
:10:13. > :10:18.rules of the houses, the animals in the yard. So there are not people
:10:19. > :10:25.there now who will remember this happening. They say Germain Katanga
:10:26. > :10:30.has still got the potential to reform, and that is why they have
:10:31. > :10:36.given him what many will see is a relatively small sentence. Although
:10:37. > :10:41.we have heard from one victims group which has said that this will act as
:10:42. > :10:46.a warning that these crimes cannot go unpunished. A court in China has
:10:47. > :10:52.sentenced to death a former mining tycoon who was charged with running
:10:53. > :10:56.a Mafia style gang. He is one of China's richest men, who is thought
:10:57. > :11:04.to have right to a former security chief who is under house arrest. He
:11:05. > :11:08.and his brother were found guilty of running a criminal gang which
:11:09. > :11:12.controlled gaming machines. Before the football World Cup gets under
:11:13. > :11:16.way in Brazil, there is still the small matter of the final of the
:11:17. > :11:24.Champions League. It takes place in Lisbon on Saturday evening. If you
:11:25. > :11:28.like to bet, bet on the fact that Madrid will win! It is the first
:11:29. > :11:31.time in footballing history that two teams from the same city meet in the
:11:32. > :11:37.final of a major European competition. Real Madrid and
:11:38. > :11:44.Atletico Madrid face-off in the final of this season's Champions
:11:45. > :11:47.League. With their home ground here in the south of the city, Atletico
:11:48. > :11:51.Madrid won the Spanish league title last weekend for the first time in
:11:52. > :11:59.nearly two decades. The club have never won European foot will's top
:12:00. > :12:07.prize. Just four miles away, in the north of Madrid, at the burn about
:12:08. > :12:17.stadium, Real Madrid fans are hoping to win this trophy for the 10th
:12:18. > :12:21.time. Two clubs, two sets of fans, and generally speaking, it is not
:12:22. > :12:31.just a north-south divide. Real Madrid fans are generally known to
:12:32. > :12:36.be a bit more posh. Atletico is more associated with Madrid's working
:12:37. > :12:45.class. Like this fruit and veg shop owner. Atletico Madrid, they are a
:12:46. > :12:49.little brother, they are never winning anything. We were even
:12:50. > :12:54.feeling bad for them. That was something they did not like, they
:12:55. > :12:59.hated it. TRANSLATION: Real Madrid is all about money, they buy players
:13:00. > :13:04.worth 100 million euros, Gareth Bale, Cristiano Ronaldo. They their
:13:05. > :13:09.team. We have a team which is made, that is what makes us proud. For
:13:10. > :13:16.some in this city, football is a love hate relationship. Like this
:13:17. > :13:22.couple. TRANSLATION: Real Madrid fans are a
:13:23. > :13:27.bit pompous, they go to the games, sit down quietly, eat snacks, they
:13:28. > :13:33.do this a bit. They do not cheer very much. They are boring.
:13:34. > :13:37.TRANSLATION: Real Madrid has always been a club with a great history.
:13:38. > :13:38.Atletico has always been a club which is fighting, with little
:13:39. > :13:49.money. Once the game is over, one half of
:13:50. > :13:54.Madrid will celebrate. That is the City Hall. It is here where Real
:13:55. > :14:00.Madrid fans will hope to be party income the final whistle. But just
:14:01. > :14:12.500 metres south down this famous avenue, this is the place where
:14:13. > :14:24.Atletico Madrid fans hope they will be celebrating late into the night.

:14:55. > :15:00.machines like this one to film sweeping aerial shots, but
:15:01. > :15:03.scientists are developing the next generation of robots. They are
:15:04. > :15:09.drawing inspiration from nature. They may be used for anything from
:15:10. > :15:12.military surveillance to search and rescue.
:15:13. > :15:16.They may not look like birds but these robots are behaving in a very
:15:17. > :15:21.birdlike way. Researchers have designed each of these drones with
:15:22. > :15:25.an on-board computer which can work out its position relative to the
:15:26. > :15:30.others. This means they can make collective decisions about where to
:15:31. > :15:35.go. The drones are flocking. It is one example of bio inspired
:15:36. > :15:39.robotics, which is taking technology of drones to the next level. This
:15:40. > :15:44.does not look like anything I have ever seen in nature, but when it
:15:45. > :15:49.comes to taking robots from something like this to something we
:15:50. > :15:55.can use in our everyday lives, nature has a huge role to play in
:15:56. > :16:02.inspiring design. The sensors on this quad copter, for example, are
:16:03. > :16:10.based on insect dies. They help the robot to see and avoid obstacles.
:16:11. > :16:16.This one's arms are based on a bird of prey's halons. They can grasp
:16:17. > :16:21.objects mid flight. They will enable drones to navigate urban
:16:22. > :16:23.environments or deliver goods. There are a lot of tasks you can do.
:16:24. > :16:28.Aerial photography is one of the are a lot of tasks you can do.
:16:29. > :16:33.simplest ones but also observing pollution in forests and wildlife.
:16:34. > :16:40.There is a huge field of applications. Scientists are now
:16:41. > :16:44.working closely with regulators to make sure these multitasking robots
:16:45. > :16:54.can be operated safely in our airspace.

:19:23. > :19:26.I think for the Nigerian government, it is a very important step because
:19:27. > :19:32.by declaring Boko Haram a terrorist group that is linked to Al-Qaeda, I
:19:33. > :19:35.think the Nigerian government can argue to the international community
:19:36. > :19:40.that they have the responsibility to come in and help Nigeria in the
:19:41. > :19:44.fight against Boko Haram. But on the other hand, I think for Boko Haram
:19:45. > :19:48.there is little significance on what it can actually do to the group
:19:49. > :19:51.because one, the finances of this group are not through official
:19:52. > :19:56.channels. They are not even known. What is known as they do Raid banks
:19:57. > :20:04.and steal money from local banks. They do use cash. The official
:20:05. > :20:12.financial routes for their finances. The second thing is, the
:20:13. > :20:17.way they get their arms. This is not officially known by the government.
:20:18. > :20:21.They raid military barracks and police stations. That is somehow
:20:22. > :20:26.where they get most of their arms. There is little significance on what
:20:27. > :20:32.it can actually do to the group itself, Boko Haram. Very briefly,
:20:33. > :20:37.what is the latest on the search for the missing schoolgirls? At the
:20:38. > :20:40.moment, the government is saying they have sent in troops to search
:20:41. > :20:45.for these girls but there is little information that is coming out on
:20:46. > :20:50.how far the government has gone. We know that the United States says it
:20:51. > :20:59.has deployed 18 military men in Chad itself to in order to help with this

:21:41. > :21:45.shoppers which was followed by several explosions. The region has
:21:46. > :21:49.seen a number of similar incidents which have been blamed on Muslim
:21:50. > :21:52.extremists. Scientists in the United States say
:21:53. > :21:59.they are step closer to developing an effective malaria vaccine. They
:22:00. > :22:04.have developed a vaccine which works on mice. They have developed it by
:22:05. > :22:09.testing it on children from Tanzania who are naturally immune to the
:22:10. > :22:14.disease. More tests are needed before they can begin trials on
:22:15. > :22:19.humans. At the moment, we are beginning nonhuman primate trials.
:22:20. > :22:27.If those are successful, the next step would be clinical trials. It
:22:28. > :22:37.began in 2002 with the work of Patrick Duffy and there were ten
:22:38. > :22:41.children who were monitored to see how many malaria parasites they had
:22:42. > :22:46.in their bodies. Using that information, we were able to
:22:47. > :22:54.identify very resistant children and very susceptible children. We did
:22:55. > :22:58.some what we call DNA gymnastics. They use parasite genes which are
:22:59. > :23:02.only recognised by antibodies in the resistant children but not the
:23:03. > :23:06.susceptible children. That is how we discovered this new vaccine
:23:07. > :23:12.candidate. Only about 6% of children in our cohort had this antibody and
:23:13. > :23:16.wear resistant to severe malaria. They develop it naturally through
:23:17. > :23:21.being exposed to parasites over the course of their lifetime. Some of
:23:22. > :23:25.the children are able to develop this protective antibody response
:23:26. > :23:29.and the trick was finding out what was the target of this antibody
:23:30. > :23:34.response. That was Doctor Jake Curtis.
:23:35. > :23:39.People have been injured in Russia after a hot water pipeline exploded

:23:50. > :23:53.off the bus. That was because of smoke and water pouring out of the
:23:54. > :23:58.vehicle. Some people suffered heavy skin burns. They were treated in a

:24:15. > :24:19.Do we know who threw a grenade? We do not. The second person died as a
:24:20. > :24:27.result of injuries from hand grenade or fragmentation grenade. That is a
