:01:11. > :01:16.Hello and a warm welcome to the programme. The Pakistani army says
:01:17. > :01:21.the chase is on after another attack at Karachi airport.
:01:22. > :01:24.A day after security forces regained control of the airport
:01:25. > :01:26.from militants, two gunmen on motorbikes fired shots
:01:27. > :01:29.at a training camp used by security forces just outside the perimeter.
:01:30. > :01:35.It comes after militants attacked the airport on Monday.
:01:36. > :01:38.The Pakistani military carried out air strikes in retaliation,
:01:39. > :01:45.The strikes targeted militant hideouts here in the Tirah Valley
:01:46. > :01:49.of Khyber tribal region near the border with Afghanistan.
:01:50. > :01:52.As I said, that's after a brazen assault by Taliban militants
:01:53. > :01:58.at Jinnah International Airport, the country's biggest and busiest.
:01:59. > :02:00.Seven more bodies have been recovered from a building
:02:01. > :02:06.In total, more than 30 people died there including ten militants.
:02:07. > :02:10.The Pakistani Taliban says it carried out the raid as revenge
:02:11. > :02:18.for the killing of the group's leader last year.
:02:19. > :02:28.Lots to take in. Let's go live to Karachi. Mohammed Hanif joins us.
:02:29. > :02:31.Lots of detail. This most recent attack at Karachi airport, which the
:02:32. > :02:39.authorities are not describing as an attack, just tell us what has
:02:40. > :02:44.happened. A couple of hours ago, the facility right next to the airport
:02:45. > :02:49.which is used by airport security forces for training purposes, that
:02:50. > :02:57.came under attack. Gunmen on a motorbike opened fire. The security
:02:58. > :03:02.forces returned fire and they fled. As you can imagine, there was panic
:03:03. > :03:07.all around. This airport reopened less than 24 hours ago after that
:03:08. > :03:15.long siege that lasted the whole night. So troops rushed to this
:03:16. > :03:22.facility. Ambulances were seen scrambling to this place. But there
:03:23. > :03:27.were no casualties. The head of the airport security forces just spoke
:03:28. > :03:31.to us a while ago and he insists that journalists are describing it
:03:32. > :03:37.as an attack but it was a shooting incident, a drive-by shooting.
:03:38. > :03:44.Operations at Karachi airport were suspended for a couple of hours.
:03:45. > :03:48.Incoming flights were diverted but we have just been told operations
:03:49. > :03:52.have resumed again. We understand that the authorities are trying to
:03:53. > :03:55.play this down by not describing it as an attack but can you confirm
:03:56. > :04:07.whether this was the Pakistani Taliban behind it? The Taliban say
:04:08. > :04:13.they were behind it. There speaks a person -- their spokesperson tweeted
:04:14. > :04:16.minutes after the incident saying they had attacked security forces
:04:17. > :04:22.again. What they are trying to do is send a very clear message, not just
:04:23. > :04:32.to the state of Pakistan, but to its citizens and security forces as
:04:33. > :04:37.well. They are not very far from wherever the target might be. What
:04:38. > :04:42.happened was, after the siege at Karachi airport, the Pakistani air
:04:43. > :04:53.force bombed tribal areas where it supposedly Talibans hideout. One of
:04:54. > :05:04.the targets in one of the main cities in Pakistan, that is where
:05:05. > :05:07.security forces go after Taliban hideouts in the tribal areas, but
:05:08. > :05:12.nothing has ever been done in the main cities. So the attackers might
:05:13. > :05:16.have come from tribal areas, but surely they didn't land here just
:05:17. > :05:21.before the attack. I am sure somebody brought them here. They
:05:22. > :05:24.found cover here. They had time for reconnaissance, time to get
:05:25. > :05:30.uniforms, arms, whatever else you need for an operation like that.
:05:31. > :05:40.After declaring the airport safe and open, all the security forces went
:05:41. > :05:45.home. It seems to be back to business as usual. The Taliban just
:05:46. > :05:54.sent us a very stark reminder that they are here and if they want to
:05:55. > :05:58.attack again, they can. A very stark reminder indeed. For the moment,
:05:59. > :06:01.Mohammed Hanif, live from Karachi, thank you for the latest. We will
:06:02. > :06:08.continue to monitor those events. Reports from Afghanistan suggest
:06:09. > :06:11.that an incident in which five US soldiers died on Monday may have
:06:12. > :06:14.been a case of friendly fire. It's thought
:06:15. > :06:16.the soldiers were killed by a bomb dropped from a coalition plane
:06:17. > :06:29.in the southern province of Zabul. Just over an hour ago, the US put
:06:30. > :06:33.out a fuller statement than they had done three hours ago when they first
:06:34. > :06:37.confirmed that five people were killed. Their statement now calls it
:06:38. > :06:45.fratricidal. Tragically, it may have been fratricide. Our thoughts go out
:06:46. > :06:51.to the families involved. That is a word used by the US army to mean the
:06:52. > :06:55.times when they killed the inside. We understand from Afghan sources on
:06:56. > :06:58.the ground, and I should stress that we have not had this from
:06:59. > :07:02.international sources but from Afghan civilian and military sources
:07:03. > :07:08.in the South, who have been talking to us in more detail this morning,
:07:09. > :07:13.they say there was a joint US-Afghan operation yesterday trying to clear
:07:14. > :07:17.this valley, presumably because of the election on Saturday. The second
:07:18. > :07:21.round of the Afghan elections. Afghan and US forces are trying to
:07:22. > :07:28.secure as much ground as possible ahead of that election. Towards the
:07:29. > :07:34.end of the operation, the Taliban counter-attacked. An air strike was
:07:35. > :07:37.called in to deal with it, and in it, five US soldiers, an Afghan
:07:38. > :07:43.interpreter and an Afghan soldier were killed. In a separate
:07:44. > :07:51.development there are concerns over the whereabouts of 35 teachers. What
:07:52. > :07:54.more can you tell us? A busy day for security in Afghanistan. On the main
:07:55. > :07:59.arterial road running from the North to the South, there was a group of
:08:00. > :08:07.University teachers, we understand, on a bus travelling from Kandahar in
:08:08. > :08:12.the South, to Kabul. They would not have been far from the region of the
:08:13. > :08:16.air strike yesterday. Near the centre of the country, which has
:08:17. > :08:21.been a place where there has been a lot of Taliban activity in recent
:08:22. > :08:25.years, some gunmen apparently boarded the bus and kidnapped more
:08:26. > :08:30.than 35 of those University teachers, but that is really all we
:08:31. > :08:34.know about it. We heard that initially from social media sites.
:08:35. > :08:38.Local journalists are now talking about it and local officials are
:08:39. > :08:39.desperately trying to find these 35 people.
:08:40. > :08:43.Thank you. To Iraq now where
:08:44. > :08:45.the northern province The country's Parliament Speaker
:08:46. > :08:49.told a press conference a short while ago that insurgents
:08:50. > :08:52.linked to Al-Qaeda had seized It follows earlier reports that
:08:53. > :08:57.hundreds of gunmen had launched an attack on the city of Mosul in
:08:58. > :09:00.Nineveh province, taking over the provincial government headquarters
:09:01. > :09:03.and setting free detainees There's been fierce fighting
:09:04. > :09:08.in the city for days. Iraqi security forces are reported
:09:09. > :09:11.to have abandoned their posts while thousands
:09:12. > :09:22.of residents have fled the city. The trial of 15 crew members on
:09:23. > :09:25.board the stricken Sewol ferry has begun in South Korea. More than 300
:09:26. > :09:29.people died in the disaster, many of them teenagers from one high school
:09:30. > :09:38.north of Seoul. For almost to months they have been
:09:39. > :09:44.labelled guilty. Today they began their trial. Captain Lee was among
:09:45. > :09:48.those facing the most serious charges of homicide through wilful
:09:49. > :09:51.negligence. A conviction could mean the death penalty, although South
:09:52. > :09:58.Korea has not executed anyone for nearly 20 years. Also arriving at
:09:59. > :10:04.court, the families of some of those who died. One held a banner. You are
:10:05. > :10:08.not human, it read. There were scuffles as security guards removed
:10:09. > :10:11.it from the court. The routine proceedings that began the trial to
:10:12. > :10:18.date hide the massive interest here in this unusual case. Many believe
:10:19. > :10:22.the South Korean media have already tried and convicted the captain.
:10:23. > :10:27.There are images like this of him being rescued with passengers still
:10:28. > :10:36.on board being replayed on television networks. The President
:10:37. > :10:41.later labelled the actions of the captain and his crew is tantamount
:10:42. > :10:46.to murder and according to local media, many private law firms have
:10:47. > :10:51.refused to defend them. This disaster has shaken South Korea's
:10:52. > :10:55.relationship between citizens and the Government. In the search for
:10:56. > :11:00.blame, some key figures are still unaccounted for. The head of the
:11:01. > :11:04.ferry company has so far evaded a nationwide manhunt. Warrants have
:11:05. > :11:07.been issued for him and his children. Catching him might be
:11:08. > :11:12.proving difficult but if the past two months are anything to go by,
:11:13. > :11:18.ensuring him a fair trial might be harder still.
:11:19. > :11:20.At least 20 women have been abducted in northern Nigeria,
:11:21. > :11:23.close to the area where Islamist militants kidnapped more than 200
:11:24. > :11:27.A village elder has told the BBC that men dressed
:11:28. > :11:30.in army uniforms took the women at gunpoint near Chibok.
:11:31. > :11:32.They were driven away to an unknown location.
:11:33. > :11:35.The BBC's Tommy Oladipo, in Abuja, says this latest abduction throws
:11:36. > :11:43.up questions about security in the area.
:11:44. > :11:53.The women who were taken away were from a nomadic community who move
:11:54. > :11:56.around that area. Just considering the amount of attention that Chibok
:11:57. > :12:03.in particular has received following the abduction of the 200
:12:04. > :12:07.schoolgirls, one would expect that security would be intensified around
:12:08. > :12:12.the area, so the fact that this attack could happen again, it has
:12:13. > :12:22.been confirmed by residents and local officials, shows there is a
:12:23. > :12:29.huge gap in military deployment despite the state of emergency in
:12:30. > :12:32.place. More to come on BBC World News,
:12:33. > :12:37.including: The actress Angelina Jolie opens a conference on ending
:12:38. > :12:39.sexual violence and conflict. We will hear from the United Nations's
:12:40. > :12:46.special representative on the issue. Trades union leaders in Brazil have
:12:47. > :12:50.warned that a Metro strike could resume in Sao Paolo just in time
:12:51. > :12:53.for the World Cup opening ceremony. They've suspended the strike for two
:12:54. > :12:56.days to allow for negotiations. Industrial action
:12:57. > :12:58.and demonstrations have brought widespread traffic disruption in
:12:59. > :13:13.Sao Paulo for several days. The week started badly for Sao
:13:14. > :13:19.Paulo. By seven o'clock on Monday morning, riot police were using tear
:13:20. > :13:23.gas to disperse hundreds of protesters. Authorities are making
:13:24. > :13:27.sure they can put a stop to any hint of unrest. Five days of strikes have
:13:28. > :13:29.brought widespread traffic disruption to Sao Paulo and
:13:30. > :13:36.frustration for millions of the city's commuters. The subway
:13:37. > :13:40.workers' strike affects working people. You wake up at four o'clock
:13:41. > :13:45.in the morning to take a crowded train and face this mess. Later came
:13:46. > :13:50.a small victory. Union members voted to suspend the strike. It is not a
:13:51. > :13:53.done deal yet. There will be a meeting on Wednesday and the unions
:13:54. > :13:57.made clear that unless the company reinstates dozens of workers who
:13:58. > :14:03.were fired on Monday, the strike will resume on the opening day of
:14:04. > :14:07.the World Cup. The homeless workers movement, which in recent weeks has
:14:08. > :14:12.occupied land near the World Cup Stadium, took part in Monday's
:14:13. > :14:16.protest and said they had negotiated with authorities to legally build
:14:17. > :14:22.housing. The hope is this could cut the number of protesters on the
:14:23. > :14:26.street but it was not all good news. One construction worker died and two
:14:27. > :14:29.others were injured after a section of monorail under construction
:14:30. > :14:35.collapsed. The project had been designed for the World Cup but was
:14:36. > :14:39.behind schedule. With just two days before opening match day, Sao Paolo
:14:40. > :14:43.is stealing the headlines but for the wrong reasons. The Government
:14:44. > :15:08.will be under pressure to turn that around by kick-off.
:15:09. > :15:11.killed 30 people. Five American soldiers and two Afghans have been
:15:12. > :15:23.killed in a friendly fire incident in southern Afghanistan.
:15:24. > :15:25.The Oscar winning actor Angelina Jolie is
:15:26. > :15:28.in London to raise awareness of sexual violence in war is currently
:15:29. > :15:32.taking place As a United Nations Special Envoy she's hosting a four
:15:33. > :15:34.day conference alongside the British Foreign Secretary William Hague.
:15:35. > :15:36.The event, the largest-ever of its kind, is
:15:37. > :15:39.the result of an intense two-year campaign to raise awareness.
:15:40. > :15:42.Angelina Jolie has just been speaking at the conference
:15:43. > :15:49.about what needs to be done to tackle the problem.
:15:50. > :15:55.We need to see real commitment to go after the worst perpetrators, to
:15:56. > :15:58.fund proper protection for vulnerable people and to step in and
:15:59. > :16:03.help the worst affected countries. We need all armies, peacekeeping
:16:04. > :16:07.troops and police forces to have the prevention of sexual violence in
:16:08. > :16:11.conflict as part of their training. More than 100 countries will be
:16:12. > :16:15.represented at this summit. And we are asking them to take these
:16:16. > :16:25.measures. Angelina Jolie speaking earlier in London.
:16:26. > :16:28.Zaniab Bangura, the UN Special Representative on sexual violence in
:16:29. > :16:31.conflict. has been speaking to the BBC about what can be done to tackle
:16:32. > :16:39.The only way to end impunity, is to make sure all the perpetrators, you
:16:40. > :16:44.put them on trial. You have to give justice. That trial is basically to
:16:45. > :16:50.send a message that whoever commits sexual violence will be put in a
:16:51. > :16:54.court of law and tried, both at the national level and community level
:16:55. > :16:58.and international level. Isn't the problem these horrific crimes are
:16:59. > :17:03.taking place in places of conflict, where it's nigh on impossible to get
:17:04. > :17:07.proof, to even capture these perpetrators in many cases. That is
:17:08. > :17:15.again what this conference is about. In the cases like what has
:17:16. > :17:19.mentioned, the first responders are the end-users. You have to collect
:17:20. > :17:23.the documents, 72 hours after crime has happened. They are going to be
:17:24. > :17:27.in this conference, so basically the conference is bringing, for the
:17:28. > :17:34.first time in the world, all the players, lawyers, judges, ministers
:17:35. > :17:38.of defence, UN agencies, NGOs and victims, to let them know in this
:17:39. > :17:45.big challenge around the world, what can each one of us do, and what do
:17:46. > :17:50.we the able to act when? So we can come with firm commitments and
:17:51. > :17:53.concrete action that will turn the UN resolutions into solutions. If we
:17:54. > :18:02.don't have everybody on the table and we all agree, when do we come in
:18:03. > :18:07.and what do we do? When you see these people, the perpetrators, and
:18:08. > :18:11.you cannot actually physically bring them to a court of law, whether it's
:18:12. > :18:15.the country or an international court, then it just seems completely
:18:16. > :18:22.pointless to many women who are the victims of this, and men, of course.
:18:23. > :18:29.If you are able to collect the evidence, you can keep the evidence.
:18:30. > :18:32.In countries, I do agree with you, in central Africa today, we have no
:18:33. > :18:37.court of law. So at the end of the day, you have to have the evidence,
:18:38. > :18:41.whether you treat their women medically or provide social support
:18:42. > :18:44.them to build their life, but you have to store the evidence, to be
:18:45. > :18:52.able to make sure in a court of law you can use it. That is what the is.
:18:53. > :18:55.We wish it will hope to help us that there will be proper prosecution.
:18:56. > :18:59.But you have do provide support for the victims and survivors. That's
:19:00. > :19:02.where we have to work a lot, so we don't forget the victims. It's
:19:03. > :19:07.important they have the right medical treatment and are able to
:19:08. > :19:12.have trauma counselling, so that they can stand up in front of the
:19:13. > :19:16.perpetrators and give evidence. Briefly, how do you change the
:19:17. > :19:20.mentality of people so they Briefly, how do you change the
:19:21. > :19:25.mentality of people just stop? It's such a powerful and effective tool,
:19:26. > :19:28.how do you stop that? It's making sure you have the right laws in the
:19:29. > :19:32.country, ensuring political commitment at the highest level. If
:19:33. > :19:36.you don't have that political commitment, you will not break the
:19:37. > :19:37.culture of silence and denial. It is making sure this thing is
:19:38. > :20:04.perpetrated. remains, who will be the next
:20:05. > :20:07.president of the European Commission? The German Chancellor
:20:08. > :20:12.and the British minister have differing ideas about where the
:20:13. > :20:16.future of the union will lie. Ben Wright caught up with the Swedish
:20:17. > :20:23.Prime Minister and asked him how they could settle their remaining
:20:24. > :20:28.differences. The important message from these four leaders, who have
:20:29. > :20:32.worked together closely before, is that, look, where is Europe heading
:20:33. > :20:36.now? We have ideas how to create more jobs, how to become more
:20:37. > :20:40.competitive, how to pull better the resources given to research and
:20:41. > :20:44.development. If we can agree on that, we will also then name and
:20:45. > :20:48.name to lead the commission, but I don't think that is what you should
:20:49. > :20:53.do first, that is what you should do after you have finalised what you
:20:54. > :20:57.want to do. So the priorities of the next commission should come first.
:20:58. > :21:01.You have held off naming Jean-Claude Junker as a man you are opposed to.
:21:02. > :21:05.Do you think David Cameron and the British have been a bit clumsy
:21:06. > :21:10.here, by making their hostility to him so clear? Hasn't he just rallied
:21:11. > :21:15.support behind him in Berlin, for instance? I think we have arguments
:21:16. > :21:21.with regards to principal. We don't agree with the idea that the party
:21:22. > :21:26.groups should appoint frontrunners very much in advance of the election
:21:27. > :21:30.to the European Parliament because it disqualifies a lot of candidates
:21:31. > :21:35.that could actually run for these important positions. Here we are
:21:36. > :21:38.like-minded, I've been in principle against that, and therefore I'm now
:21:39. > :21:41.trying to respect the way the process should be done, with the
:21:42. > :21:45.European Council president consulting with the countries for
:21:46. > :21:50.the weeks to come. What we have agreed today is what is the content
:21:51. > :21:54.of what this commission and should do. That is very important. It's
:21:55. > :21:59.very often forgotten. People are asking more to see the results
:22:00. > :22:02.rather than the name to lead. Parliament will vote but you are
:22:03. > :22:03.quite clear it is the council that needs to decide on a name
:22:04. > :22:06.quite clear it is the council that needs to decide on and they should
:22:07. > :22:11.have their autonomy to do so. It's a balance between the two. The Lisbon
:22:12. > :22:14.Treaty says we will present a candidate with the qualified
:22:15. > :22:19.majority if needed, and that the European Parliament will elect that
:22:20. > :22:22.person. So respect that balance that reflects the way very often
:22:23. > :22:26.discussed in Europe, the balance between the European institutions
:22:27. > :22:37.and the nation states and their leaders. If he doesn't get the job,
:22:38. > :22:39.might you fancy it? I have an election mid-September. I'm trying
:22:40. > :22:42.to win my third election in a row, so that's my message to the Swedish
:22:43. > :22:44.people. David Cameron wants this with negotiation that will
