being done to get the city up and running for Monday. | :00:40. | :00:41. | |

This is one of the largest demonstrations that Moldova has seen | :01:02. | :01:07. | |
in the last year but what sets this demonstration apart is that it | :01:08. | :01:11. | |
brings together two groups that were previously in opposition. | :01:12. | :01:14. | |

Tens of millions of Americans are digging themselves out after one | :01:20. | :01:37. | |
of the biggest winter storms ever recorded in the eastern | :01:38. | :01:40. | |
At least 20 people have died in road accidents or from shovelling snow. | :01:41. | :01:46. | |
A state of emergency remains in place in 11 states | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
including New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
where 20,000 are still without power - | :01:53. | :01:56. | |
another 50,000 have no electricity in the Carolinas. | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
The authorities are also battling to clear blocked roads, | :02:02. | :02:04. | |
Our Washington correspondent is Laura Bicker. | :02:05. | :02:12. | |
It is beginning to look a little bit better, the roads are beginning to | :02:13. | :02:18. | |
get a bit clearer, the pavements have been cleared and people are | :02:19. | :02:23. | |
emerging from their homes after two days of hiding from this storm. | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
Businesses are beginning to reopen, but the public transport system is | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
still closed. This was billed as an historic storm, they said it would | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
have the largest snowfall and it certainly has had, since the 1860s. | :02:38. | :02:41. | |
Now the battle begins to clean up. The snow has finally stopped, | :02:42. | :02:50. | |
but millions of people woke to mountains of snow on their | :02:51. | :02:52. | |
doorsteps and the dig-out begins. Those stuck on this freezing | :02:53. | :02:54. | |
motorway in Pennsylvania have They have been stranded | :02:55. | :02:57. | |
since Friday night. We haven't had any | :02:58. | :03:00. | |
food since yesterday. In an icy New York, | :03:01. | :03:07. | |
where the snowfall broke records, businesses tried to reopen, | :03:08. | :03:13. | |
and officials lifted a ban on travel If you do not need to be | :03:14. | :03:16. | |
on the roads, you shouldn't be on the roads, because there | :03:17. | :03:22. | |
are still dangerous spots, spots with black ice and this | :03:23. | :03:24. | |
is still about getting the emergency In the nation's capital, | :03:25. | :03:27. | |
airports remain closed. Thousands of flights | :03:28. | :03:38. | |
have been cancelled. They are trying to clear runways | :03:39. | :03:40. | |
but airlines have warned it could be People are beginning to venture out | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
but that brings further risks. Five people have died shovelling | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
snow during this storm, Emergency rooms say they expect | :03:50. | :03:52. | |
to be busier over the next few days. The injuries we expect | :03:53. | :04:00. | |
to see are the sprains, the strains, or worse, broken bones, | :04:01. | :04:02. | |
primarily from slipping and falling, back pain related to snow | :04:03. | :04:06. | |
shovelling, and then the worst we don't want to see | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
but which does occur, heart attack related | :04:11. | :04:12. | |
to the strenuous activity. But there is beauty in the aftermath | :04:13. | :04:17. | |
of this storm, and fun A new landscape has | :04:18. | :04:20. | |
brought new possibilities And they are enjoying | :04:21. | :04:26. | |
it while it lasts. Some of the rule areas have been the | :04:27. | :04:40. | |
hardest hit in West Virginia, they have had over a metre of snow, it | :04:41. | :04:46. | |
could be sometime before the roads are passable. As you saw a number of | :04:47. | :04:52. | |
people stuck on waterways for several hours, in fact in | :04:53. | :04:55. | |
Pennsylvania for a number of days. They have been moved so people have | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
managed to get on way. But it could be some time before all of the road | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
networks are back up and running but they are giving it a good go. | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
ABC's Marci Gonzalez joins me now from New York. | :05:10. | :05:16. | |
New York is a city that is used to the cold, used to harsh winters, the | :05:17. | :05:24. | |
mountains of snow I can see behind you, but this particular storm, has | :05:25. | :05:33. | |
it not to New Yorkers sideways? It really hasn't. I spoke to the mayor | :05:34. | :05:36. | |
and he said last night that the city had prepared for the worst so they | :05:37. | :05:43. | |
were ready to handle all of this. We see the big snowdrifts but the | :05:44. | :05:45. | |
sanitation department did an amazing job of keeping the roads clear and | :05:46. | :05:51. | |
helping by the travel ban being in effect, drivers were off the road so | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
they were able to get the snowploughs out and clear the area. | :05:55. | :05:59. | |
People walking past, so many of them heading down the block to Central | :06:00. | :06:04. | |
Park to enjoy the snow on the ground. So many families heading out | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
to sled and have snowball fights, making the most of what mother | :06:09. | :06:13. | |
nature has left behind. I was reading about a giant snowball fight | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
breaking out in Times Square overnight. Great people are getting | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
out and enjoying it, but on a more serious note, how is business | :06:23. | :06:28. | |
suffering? Is life getting back to normal? Our shops and restaurants | :06:29. | :06:36. | |
opening again? Very slowly getting back to normal. A few businesses | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
that I try to visit today, I had some errands to run and I find those | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
businesses closed. I am ordering delivery that normally takes 20 | :06:46. | :06:48. | |
minutes and I'm waiting an hour and a half for my lunch and it's still | :06:49. | :06:52. | |
what here! Things are not back to more normal but by tomorrow things | :06:53. | :07:06. | |
should be more resembling normality. I hope your lunch arrives soon and I | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
wish you and everyone else in New York the best of lunch. | :07:11. | :07:20. | |
The US east coast is not the only part of the world suffering | :07:21. | :07:23. | |
Heavy snowfall and freezing weather in Far East Asia have been breaking | :07:24. | :07:27. | |
temperature records, as well as causing | :07:28. | :07:28. | |
Temperatures in China have hit a record low, this cold wave has | :07:29. | :07:39. | |
brought snow and lots of it. Authorities have issued the | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
country's weather alert on its four level scale, its coldest weather in | :07:44. | :07:49. | |
decades. Homes lost power as the weight of frozen water caused bamboo | :07:50. | :07:53. | |
trees to sag into electricity cables. Cutting the power lines. Icy | :07:54. | :08:00. | |
conditions in the south-east left several thousand air travellers | :08:01. | :08:03. | |
stranded overnight. And workers have been left battling to clear the | :08:04. | :08:11. | |
roads of ice and store. -- snow. Hong Kong has a subtropical climate | :08:12. | :08:13. | |
but this weekend signatures are plunged to the lowest point in | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
almost 60 years. Frost dusting the mountain tops. Morning temperatures | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
dropped below freezing in the mountainous areas around the city | :08:23. | :08:26. | |
and around three Celsius in urban areas where many of the buildings | :08:27. | :08:31. | |
lack central heating. But will there be snow? TRANSLATION: From the | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
weather report it sounded like there might be frost so I came to check it | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
out but I did expect so much. It's far too cold for me, Hong Kong is | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
supposed to be warm, this is not Hong Kong! In Japan more flights | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
forced to cancel and the speed of some of the bullet trains reduced as | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
heavy snow and gusty winds hit West and central parts. The blanket of | :08:55. | :08:58. | |
snow even reached as far as Nagasaki. Flights to and from the | :08:59. | :09:07. | |
popular holiday island halted for a second day. It's in the biggest | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
snowfall in three decades. Mobile phone footage shot by one of several | :09:12. | :09:15. | |
thousands of passengers stranded at the Islands airports is more than | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
500 flights were cancelled. Seriously inconvenient for very many | :09:21. | :09:24. | |
but also many more are left enjoying the novelty of it all. | :09:25. | :09:27. | |
The former Israeli President and Nobel Peace Prize winner, | :09:28. | :09:29. | |
Shimon Peres, has been rushed to hospital with chest pains. | :09:30. | :09:31. | |
A spokeswoman says Mr Peres, who's 92, will stay overnight | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
at a hospital in Tel Aviv for observation and testing. | :09:35. | :09:36. | |
He had a heart operation ten days ago. | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
The Veteran African National Congress activist Denis Goldberg has | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
called for leaders of the party to be replaced. | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
In a BBC interview, Mr Goldberg alleged that the ANC leadership, | :09:50. | :09:51. | |
locally and nationally, was riddled with corruption. | :09:52. | :09:53. | |
Mr Goldberg said that leaders' focus on personal enrichment | :09:54. | :09:55. | |
was threatening freedom in South Africa. | :09:56. | :10:14. | |
It's not yet clear if he will avoid a run-off by taking 50%. The | :10:15. | :10:23. | |
country's fragile government might the affected as the president can | :10:24. | :10:25. | |
dissolve government in a crisis. Iran says it plans to buy more | :10:26. | :10:29. | |
than 100 Airbus planes. Iranian media say that the deal | :10:30. | :10:32. | |
will be signed during President Hassan Rouhani's visit | :10:33. | :10:34. | |
to Paris on Wednesday. It follows the lifting | :10:35. | :10:36. | |
of international sanctions over Supporters and opponents | :10:37. | :10:38. | |
of Moldova's new government have taken to the streets of the capital | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
Chisinau for the third time. The opposition - which includes both | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
pro-Russian and pro-EU groups - is calling for the Prime Minister | :10:47. | :10:54. | |
to be removed and new parliamentary The BBC's David Stern | :10:55. | :10:57. | |
was at the demonstration. This is one of the largest | :10:58. | :11:06. | |
demonstrations that Moldova has seen in the last year but what sets this | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
demonstration apart is that it brings together two groups that were | :11:12. | :11:17. | |
previously in opposition. People who are for closer integration with | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
Europe and those who are for closer relations with Russia. They have | :11:22. | :11:27. | |
thrown their differences to the site to come here and demand the | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
resignation, the immediate resignation of this government. They | :11:33. | :11:36. | |
say the government is rife with corruption, it is controlled by | :11:37. | :11:39. | |
millionaires and billionaires and oligarchs as they call them. They | :11:40. | :11:46. | |
say they want it immediate early elections. The government has not | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
agreed to this so far but the momentum, the fact these people have | :11:51. | :11:54. | |
come together is moving in that direction. I come here to hope to | :11:55. | :11:59. | |
get down our government, politics who pretend to be, to represent | :12:00. | :12:08. | |
European values, who in true are only Mafia, oligarch, they think | :12:09. | :12:15. | |
only but for their money, their pocket, not for the people, the | :12:16. | :12:22. | |
country. The police presence is significant but at the same time it | :12:23. | :12:26. | |
must be said that so far this has been a very peaceful demonstration. | :12:27. | :12:31. | |
The protesters themselves emphasise the peaceful nature, that they are | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
bringing flowers to underline the fact that they don't want to see any | :12:35. | :12:39. | |
type of violence whatsoever. They also emphasise that this is a | :12:40. | :12:43. | |
different type of anti-government demonstration than what we saw in | :12:44. | :12:46. | |
Ukraine which they believe, which they see as primarily ending in | :12:47. | :12:51. | |
violence and with a violent revolution. They say that's not | :12:52. | :13:00. | |
going to happen here. We are the people these demonstrators are | :13:01. | :13:07. | |
shouting as we march through the centre of Chisinau. It's a peaceful | :13:08. | :13:10. | |
demonstration but there is a great deal of emotion behind it. Moldova | :13:11. | :13:16. | |
is by some estimates the poorest country in Europe and we have been | :13:17. | :13:20. | |
hearing over and over from people how badly they are doing economic | :13:21. | :13:23. | |
clay, how they are barely getting by. In addition to the political | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
demands that people have been making during this demonstration, there is | :13:29. | :13:34. | |
obviously a very deep-set discontent, deep-set anger which is | :13:35. | :13:36. | |
driving this movement forward. David Stern there, reporting | :13:37. | :13:38. | |

whales found washed up on a beach in Lincolnshire are believed to be | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
from the same pod as a whale HM Coastguard say two of the whales | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
were found on a beach near Skegness last night, | :14:03. | :14:07. | |
while a third was discovered earlier Members of the public | :14:08. | :14:10. | |
are being advised to stay away from the whales whilst | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
they remain on the beach. Experts will examine the bodies | :14:16. | :14:18. | |
to determine if they are in fact Rob Deaville from the Zoological | :14:19. | :14:21. | |
Society of London, who's heading the investigation explains how | :14:22. | :14:26. | |
they'll be able to tell IF the whales are from the same | :14:27. | :14:28. | |
pod as one which washed There have been suggestions that we | :14:29. | :14:41. | |
can look at stomach contents and see if they had been feeding on similar | :14:42. | :14:45. | |
prey species which might indicate if they are part of the same group or | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
not, but that is work to be done down the line. Tomorrow we will try | :14:50. | :14:54. | |
to carry out routine and systematic postmortem and try to learn more | :14:55. | :14:58. | |
about perhaps what was wrong with the Wales and why they might have | :14:59. | :14:59. | |

The government of Syria's President Assad has received a boost ahead | :15:20. | :15:22. | |
of Monday's planned peace talks in Geneva. | :15:23. | :15:23. | |
It Regime forces have recaptured Rabiya, the last rebel-held town | :15:24. | :15:26. | |
most likely the talks will take In the last hour I spoke | :15:27. | :15:46. | |
most likely the talks will take place, there has been too much | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
invested politically, diplomatically to have the talks take place. What | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
counts is what happens on the negotiating table when the talks | :15:55. | :15:59. | |
start. Two years ago we were all congregated in Geneva and it was the | :16:00. | :16:01. | |
first time you would have the opposition sitting with the regime | :16:02. | :16:05. | |
or certain parts of the opposition sitting with the regime and it fell | :16:06. | :16:08. | |
through quickly because there was no real political will especially on | :16:09. | :16:11. | |
the part of the President Assad regime and the opposition wanted the | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
fulfilled early on and it wasn't possible. It's the same thing, now | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
they are table, there is more political will, | :16:19. | :16:25. | |
eight Security Council resolution calling for political solutions so | :16:26. | :16:29. | |
they have all the work which has been done on the ground in terms of | :16:30. | :16:36. | |
the diplomatic push but in reality militarily speaking both sides are | :16:37. | :16:40. | |
still fighting quite strongly, and especially as we | :16:41. | :16:41. | |
Russian military support they are likely to be less | :16:42. | :16:48. | |
compromise, they still think they compromise, they still think they | :16:49. | :16:57. | |
can win this mill and Ali. -- militarily. What does it do in term | :16:58. | :17:00. | |
of the power table? This is the first time all | :17:01. | :17:05. | |
the major stakeholders sitting around the same table, how | :17:06. | :17:12. | |
do you see that playing out? How will it affect the effectiveness of | :17:13. | :17:17. | |
the talks? In a way it is good you her having the different opposition | :17:18. | :17:21. | |
groups come together with the Syrian regime, at least the majority. You | :17:22. | :17:25. | |
still have certain elements who would be at the table. After all the | :17:26. | :17:29. | |
diplomatic work which was done with the Iranians and Saudis along with | :17:30. | :17:33. | |
other regional powers and European American support. But in reality | :17:34. | :17:39. | |
since last September when the Russians started | :17:40. | :17:41. | |
inside Syria the Russians have taken an active military role | :17:42. | :17:46. | |
and making them feel this regime is indispensable. So that's given them | :17:47. | :17:52. | |
a moral boost which was not their two years ago. On the other hand you | :17:53. | :18:00. | |
have the Iranians who are now out from the cold diplomatically, the | :18:01. | :18:01. | |
nuclear deal has come in. was a priority for America. These | :18:02. | :18:15. | |
dynamics can either negative, it's hard to guess before | :18:16. | :18:20. | |
people get to Geneva to talk but the real point I | :18:21. | :18:31. | |
Op. It's what actually is going to happen. | :18:32. | :18:40. | |
Since the US-led invasion in 2003, Iraq's Shia Muslim majority have | :18:41. | :18:46. | |
largely held the power, sidelining many Sunnis, | :18:47. | :18:51. | |
This month an attack on a cafe in the town | :18:52. | :18:54. | |
of Muqdadiyah killed nearly 30 people - | :18:55. | :18:57. | |
many of them Shia - and was followed by revenge attacks | :18:58. | :19:05. | |
Our correspondent Jim Muir reports from there. | :19:06. | :19:13. | |
Life seemed to be more or less back to normal on the surface. | :19:14. | :19:19. | |
So-called Islamic State said they did it. | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
Clearly the aim was to provoke trouble between Sunni's and Shia. | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
They come from rival branches of Islam whose differences | :19:30. | :19:32. | |
are sharply dividing the whole region. | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
It's in mixed areas like this that the future of Iraq | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
is being decided, if coexistence between Sunni and Shia does not work | :19:42. | :19:45. | |
here the chances of it working elsewhere do not look good. | :19:46. | :19:50. | |
Across the road the result of an outburst of revenge by angry | :19:51. | :19:53. | |
Two journalists from a local TV station who tried to film | :19:54. | :20:03. | |
Less than an hour's drive away Sunni families were on the move | :20:04. | :20:12. | |
but they are not fleeing, they are coming back. | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
These people ran away two years ago when the militants took over. | :20:18. | :20:21. | |
Now they feel safe enough to come back, encouraged by the government | :20:22. | :20:25. | |
and the Shia factions who drove IS out. | :20:26. | :20:34. | |

The head of the biggest Shia armed faction told them | :20:48. | :20:49. | |
But in Iraq it is actions which count. | :20:50. | :20:55. | |
Iraq's future will only be assured when all those who were operated | :20:56. | :20:58. | |
And there are more than 3 million of them. | :20:59. | :21:13. | |
Defeat for Arsenal today which has brought to a close another wonderful | :21:14. | :21:19. | |
weekend for the Premier League leaders Leicester City. Arsenal | :21:20. | :21:21. | |
would have replaced them at the top of the table if they had beaten | :21:22. | :21:23. | |
Chelsea but instead they lost the Emirates. Arsenal played much of | :21:24. | :21:30. | |
the match with ten men after Per Mertesacker was sent off in the | :21:31. | :21:33. | |
first half for a challenge on Diego Costa who then scored the only goal | :21:34. | :21:38. | |
of the game a few minutes later. Leicester remain three points clear | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
at the top of the table. It was a very harsh decision but we had to | :21:43. | :21:51. | |
cope with it. I do not know exactly what to say because it's a few games | :21:52. | :21:56. | |
now that that happens. The one thing I think which is certainly clear | :21:57. | :22:00. | |
having looked at it a few times is that Diego Costa made a lot of it. | :22:01. | :22:06. | |
Would you agree? Yes, of course. But that's a bit of the game of the | :22:07. | :22:10. | |
strike are you now? And Diego Costa is good at that as well. An | :22:11. | :22:19. | |
important win Swansea City in the other match this afternoon, under | :22:20. | :22:21. | |
new head coach Francesco Guidolin for the first time Swansea beat | :22:22. | :22:25. | |
Everton 2-1 at Goodison Park a result which moves them four points | :22:26. | :22:30. | |
clear of the relegation zone. England's cricketers are struggling | :22:31. | :22:33. | |
to remain unbeaten in the Test series against South Africa. They | :22:34. | :22:37. | |
trailed by 100 is the five runs in the fourth and final test. -- 175 | :22:38. | :22:40. | |
runs. Joe Root continued to play some | :22:41. | :22:53. | |
impressive cricket on day three and soon completed his half-century. | :22:54. | :22:59. | |
Alastair Cook's stay was cut short by Monre Morkel. After that a flurry | :23:00. | :23:05. | |
of wickets for South Africa. Rabada dismissed Joe Root, James Taylor and | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
Jonny Bairstow in no time. The rain gods then took over and play was | :23:10. | :23:12. | |
stopped due to bad weather conditions. Ben Stokes collected | :23:13. | :23:18. | |
some quick runs but he too was sent back to the pavilion by Rabada. He | :23:19. | :23:23. | |
managed to pull out his best figures in tests by taking seven wickets in | :23:24. | :23:28. | |
one innings. Moeen Ali took charge with the bat and scored a much 54 | :23:29. | :23:35. | |
England. In the end he was trapped by Monre Morkel and England were | :23:36. | :23:41. | |
bowled out for 342, 133 runs behind the hosts. South Africa started the | :23:42. | :23:45. | |
second innings under gloomy conditions. Jimmy Anderson's play | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
was bright, Dean Elgar took an edge into the hands of wicketkeeper Jonny | :23:51. | :23:54. | |
Bairstow. After that Hashim Amla and Stephen Cook kept the guards up | :23:55. | :23:58. | |
until play was indeed you to bad light. South Africa 42-1. Novak | :23:59. | :24:07. | |
Djokovic has survived a scare at the Gillian open, he needed five sets to | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
beat the Frenchman Giles Simon in his fourth-round match. -- the | :24:12. | :24:18. | |
Australian open. He made a total of 100 and forced errors before | :24:19. | :24:21. | |
eventually serving at the final set 6-3. He will play eight seed Kei | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
Nishikori in the quarterfinals. I don't think it can get much worse | :24:28. | :24:32. | |
than this, 100 and forced errors per match is really to amend this for me | :24:33. | :24:39. | |
and my style of the game. I am aggressive but still I like to | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
construct a point, it's too many unforced errors today. I will make | :24:45. | :24:47. | |
sure I increased that number at least more than half and hope the | :24:48. | :24:56. | |
best. It was pretty easy for the top women, Serena Williams, she will | :24:57. | :25:03. | |
play Maria Sharapova in the quarterfinals. | :25:04. | :25:10. | |
Southern Alaska has been rocked by a 6.8 magnitude earthquake, | :25:11. | :25:18. | |
- 7.1, though there are no reports of injuries or serious damage. | :25:19. | :25:21. | |
The epicentre was in the Kenai Peninsula, | :25:22. | :25:28. | |
where buildings were shaken, knocking items off walls | :25:29. | :25:30. | |
A number of homes were evacuated in Kenai after reports | :25:31. | :25:36. | |
There's some damage to roads and power cuts have been reported | :25:37. | :25:41. | |
From me and the rest of the team, goodbye. | :25:42. | :26:08. | |
It was exceptionally mild to end the weekend, 16 degrees to the | :26:09. | :26:16. | |
