:00:00. > :00:07.This is BBC World News Today, broadcasting in the UK

:00:08. > :00:14.Turkey insists that it will be ready to handle an increase in migrants

:00:15. > :00:24.But amid protests against the plan our correspondent finds there's

:00:25. > :00:36.Here, they are saying, not in my backyard and that no preparations

:00:37. > :00:38.have been made for those who will be sent back here.

:00:39. > :00:40.Brussels Airport prepares to reopen - almost two weeks

:00:41. > :00:41.after being attacked by suicide bombers.

:00:42. > :00:44.We'll explain why a flare up in fighting in a disputed region

:00:45. > :00:52.of the Caucuses is making people so worried.

:00:53. > :00:55.Tottenham Hotspur close the gap on leaders Leicester

:00:56. > :00:58.in the English Premier League, but can only manage a draw

:00:59. > :01:03.We see into the Pakistan's tea houses that are dominated by men,

:01:04. > :01:20.There are concerns that neither Greece or Turkey are properly

:01:21. > :01:26.prepared to begin the return of migrants from the Greek Islands

:01:27. > :01:30.The deportations follow a EU agreement to try and stem the flow

:01:31. > :01:35.of migrants into Europe from Syria and elsewhere.Our Correspondent Mark

:01:36. > :01:40.Lowen has been to the town of Dikili in turkey where there

:01:41. > :01:57.They came with a message of defiance. We don't want the migrants

:01:58. > :02:02.back! The Turkish town of Dikili will see the first batch arrived on

:02:03. > :02:10.Monday, deported from Lesbos. But locals object to any camp and have

:02:11. > :02:14.vowed to resist. Here is a beautiful place, in Turkey. When they come

:02:15. > :02:21.here, we are not in peaceful, because of this, we are here. And

:02:22. > :02:24.they don't belong to year. They don't belong to Turkey.

:02:25. > :02:32.TRANSLATION: . Our children feel uneasy. They can

:02:33. > :02:39.take them somewhere else, we don't want them here. A burst of

:02:40. > :02:44.patriotism, with talk of defending Turkey from another migrant influx.

:02:45. > :02:49.The authorities say they will only stay in Dikili temporarily, before

:02:50. > :02:53.being moved on. But that is not calming tempers. Patients with the

:02:54. > :02:58.migrant crisis is wearing thin. Turkey already hosts 2.5 million

:02:59. > :03:02.refugees, more than any other country. But here they are saying is

:03:03. > :03:06.not in my backyard and that no preparations have been made for

:03:07. > :03:11.those who will be sent back here. So where will the migrants be sent? It

:03:12. > :03:17.was thought a registration centre could be set up in this spot. But no

:03:18. > :03:21.sign. Once they are back, human rights group are concerned about how

:03:22. > :03:28.they will be treated. Many Syrians already here work illegally, 500 of

:03:29. > :03:33.the poorest eking out a living picking fruit. It's a sign of the

:03:34. > :03:39.crisis Turkey faces even before tens of thousands more are deported from

:03:40. > :03:44.Europe. There will be thousands sent back with the beautician --

:03:45. > :03:48.readmission agreement. From the east there will be more people and we

:03:49. > :03:54.already hosting a huge number of people. It will be difficult for

:03:55. > :04:00.Turkey to cope with this crisis. On Turkey's long post, boats part

:04:01. > :04:04.with traces of dreams left behind. Those who depart believe it is a

:04:05. > :04:09.one-way ticket to safety and a new life. But Europe's doors have

:04:10. > :04:13.closed. They are heading back to Turkey, even if it not ready.

:04:14. > :04:15.Five Turkish soldiers and one special forces police officer have

:04:16. > :04:19.been killed in a bomb attack in the south east of the country,

:04:20. > :04:26.province has been blamed on Kurdish militants, according

:04:27. > :04:30.The members of the security forces were carrying out a military

:04:31. > :04:33.operation when a bomb left by militants from

:04:34. > :04:38.Kurdistan Workers Party was detonated, it said.

:04:39. > :04:41.Officials at Brussels Airport say it could take several months before

:04:42. > :04:49.Zaventem will partially re-open for three flights on Sunday

:04:50. > :04:52.after a suicide attack forced it shut nearly two weeks ago.

:04:53. > :04:55.The chief executive of the airport said there would be security

:04:56. > :05:08.screening for all passengers before they arrive at the check-in.

:05:09. > :05:15.A restart of the operations, even only partially, as quick as this, is

:05:16. > :05:19.a sign of hope. It shows our strength will and our strength to

:05:20. > :05:24.reservists and not to let others down. I want to thank every member

:05:25. > :05:29.of our airport community and all departments involved who have made

:05:30. > :05:34.this possible. As of tomorrow, Sunday, Brussels airport should be

:05:35. > :05:39.partially operational. We should receive the official authorisation

:05:40. > :05:41.to start today. We have 3% of flights to start tomorrow, by

:05:42. > :05:43.Brussels airlines. So how much impact will the changes

:05:44. > :05:46.have on passengers - here's our correspondent

:05:47. > :05:56.in Brussels, James Reynolds They will not be able to go by bus

:05:57. > :06:01.or train to the airport. They will have to go by taxi or by car. When

:06:02. > :06:04.they get there, they will have to go through temporary security

:06:05. > :06:07.procedures and also greater procedures. We are still trying to

:06:08. > :06:12.understand when and where they will be checked and what will happen to

:06:13. > :06:16.their luggage. But clearly the airport feels confident enough to

:06:17. > :06:19.offer the promises to passengers on those flights that they will be

:06:20. > :06:27.checked properly and their flights will take off. It is a test day for

:06:28. > :06:36.Brussels airport and a day that the CEO said is a sign of hope.

:06:37. > :06:41.Police removed dozens of demonstrators from the main square.

:06:42. > :06:45.And there was a number of far right demonstrators trying to stage a

:06:46. > :06:50.demonstration in the Molenbeek district which has a history of

:06:51. > :06:56.Islamist activity. The police then had a confrontation with locals,

:06:57. > :07:03.mostly of North African origin, who gathered.

:07:04. > :07:06.At least thirty people are reported to have been killed in clashes

:07:07. > :07:10.between troops from Azerbaijan and Armenia in the Caucasus region

:07:11. > :07:16.Its parliament voted to join Armenia, when the Soviet Union

:07:17. > :07:20.Both sides blame each other for the outbreak of fighting,

:07:21. > :07:24.which is said to involve tanks, helicopters and artillery.

:07:25. > :07:26.Richard Kauzlarich is former US Ambassador to Azerbaijan.

:07:27. > :07:41.What has caused this latest escalation? Thank you. This is a

:07:42. > :07:45.surprise to the extent that nobody expected this intense series of

:07:46. > :07:53.exchanges. The worst that have been taking place since the ceasefire was

:07:54. > :08:00.imposed in 1994. Tell us why this region is so strategically

:08:01. > :08:04.important? It is to GDP important because it sits astride

:08:05. > :08:13.geographically the intersection of both Russian and European interests.

:08:14. > :08:17.-- it is strategically important. It is important for Europe and the

:08:18. > :08:21.global economy. But there is a long-standing conflict that had been

:08:22. > :08:26.frozen since 1994 and it has suddenly taken a turn for the worse.

:08:27. > :08:31.The tragic loss of several dozen lives puts us now into a situation

:08:32. > :08:36.where we have to worry about how to bring the two parties to the

:08:37. > :08:44.negotiating table. Azerbaijan seems to have had this history, as you

:08:45. > :08:49.describe. You were an ambassador at a crucial time, tell us your

:08:50. > :08:55.experience? I arrived shortly before the ceasefire was in place and my

:08:56. > :09:00.wife and I took a trip outside the front lines where we saw the

:09:01. > :09:05.refugees from the fighting. Azerbaijanis who had lived during

:09:06. > :09:07.the Soviet period and had an uneasy relationship with the Armenian

:09:08. > :09:17.neighbours. And when the fighting took place they work pretty... So

:09:18. > :09:20.after 1994, while there has been a ceasefire, there have been

:09:21. > :09:24.exchanges, military exchanges between Armenia and Azerbaijan, but

:09:25. > :09:27.not on the intensity that we have seen in recent days. Thank you very

:09:28. > :09:29.much for being with us. The Syrian Army says it has

:09:30. > :09:32.discovered a mass grave with around 40 bodies in the city of Palmyra

:09:33. > :09:35.according to state run media. The city was recaptured

:09:36. > :09:39.by government forces last sunday from the so called

:09:40. > :09:41.Islamic State group. Our Middle East editor Alan Johnston

:09:42. > :09:44.has more on the grim discoveries that have come to light

:09:45. > :09:57.since the city was recaptured. Now that the city has been

:09:58. > :10:09.recaptured, they are getting a much fuller picture of what happened to

:10:10. > :10:16.the people of Palmyra under IS rule. The Syrian army says this mass grave

:10:17. > :10:20.contained local militiamen, and offices in the Army. Tragically it

:10:21. > :10:25.seems that some of their civilian relatives were also in the mass

:10:26. > :10:31.graves including three children. Some of the victims were shot, some

:10:32. > :10:36.were beheaded. Sadly, none of this is any kind of surprise. Soon after

:10:37. > :10:45.IS took over Palmeiro, we heard that they were killing dozens of people.

:10:46. > :10:50.-- Palmyra. We heard that five men when -- made to kneel on a stage in

:10:51. > :10:54.the Roman amphitheatre and then executed. Given that that sort of

:10:55. > :11:00.thing was going on, it was entirely possible that more mass graves are

:11:01. > :11:05.to be found. It has been almost a week since the

:11:06. > :11:09.city was recaptured. Journalists are saying the city is deserted, where

:11:10. > :11:14.are they? It is possible that there were very few civilians left as the

:11:15. > :11:19.battle for the city raged. But we are hearing that a number of

:11:20. > :11:26.civilians left with the IS fighters as they retreated, as they

:11:27. > :11:30.retreated, we don't know if any of them went willingly but it has to be

:11:31. > :11:34.a real possibility that they were forced to go. That they are virtual

:11:35. > :11:40.captives now, a possibility that they are in real danger. But

:11:41. > :11:45.meanwhile, the city itself has been basically completely destroyed. The

:11:46. > :11:49.fighting may have stopped, but it is obviously going to be a long long

:11:50. > :11:56.time before anything like normal life returns to Palmyra. This is a

:11:57. > :12:02.major clue for the Syrian army. Momentum on President Assad's side.

:12:03. > :12:08.Where does the fight go from here? Losing this city was a hammer blow

:12:09. > :12:13.to I S. This was a city with a cultural heritage, the world was

:12:14. > :12:18.interested in Palmyra, and at the same time, it is a city in the

:12:19. > :12:23.centre of an oil producing area so IS will revenue. It also means,

:12:24. > :12:33.strategically, that the Syrian government can think about

:12:34. > :12:36.exercising more control. It is a jumping off point for the Syrian

:12:37. > :12:43.government to launch other attacks on IS. It IS has to be worried that

:12:44. > :12:49.this combination of forces, the Syrian army and the Russian air

:12:50. > :12:53.force, might eventually focus on the IS strong gold and judging by what

:12:54. > :12:56.happened in Palmyra, it might be hard for IS to hold one eventually.

:12:57. > :13:05.Stay with us on BBC World News, still to come:

:13:06. > :13:13.The threat of nuclear terrorism remains and is evolving. That is the

:13:14. > :13:14.word from leaders on the last day of the nuclear Security summit in

:13:15. > :13:16.Washington. The UK steel industry is appealing

:13:17. > :13:18.for the government to step in after China imposed

:13:19. > :13:20.new import tariffs on steel It comes as thousands

:13:21. > :13:24.of steelworkers at the Tata plant in Port Talbot face redundancy

:13:25. > :13:26.after a decision by its Indian owners to sell their loss-making

:13:27. > :13:40.British factories. We are talking about a sector that

:13:41. > :13:45.is a foundation, that feeds into a number of key supply chains.

:13:46. > :13:49.Aerospace, defence, construction. We also need to remember that we are

:13:50. > :13:55.talking about thousands and thousands of jobs. 15,000 people

:13:56. > :14:00.work for Tata Steel. Are we prepared to sacrifice all of those jobs so we

:14:01. > :14:04.don't upset the Chinese? I don't think so. I think we have a strong

:14:05. > :14:10.relationship with China but they also need to point out that this is

:14:11. > :14:12.unfair trading. It is dumping steel and the global market in an unfair

:14:13. > :14:31.way, below the cost of production. There have been processed in Turkey

:14:32. > :14:33.as the country and sets it is ready to accept migrants from Europe.

:14:34. > :14:38.it may take at least three months for all flights to resume

:14:39. > :14:43.following last month's suicide attacks.

:14:44. > :14:46.Well, staying on the subject of the so called Islamic State -

:14:47. > :14:49.President Obama has warned that the possibility of the group

:14:50. > :14:51.obtaining a nuclear weapon is "one of the greatest threats

:14:52. > :14:54.Speaking at the end of a Nuclear Security Summit

:14:55. > :14:57.in Washington, he insisted that concrete steps must be taken

:14:58. > :15:08.This was President Obama's last big push for global nuclear security.

:15:09. > :15:10.But the threat of nuclear terrorism loomed

:15:11. > :15:14.The Brussels attacks focused the minds

:15:15. > :15:18.of the more than 50 world leaders here, with growing concerns

:15:19. > :15:22.It is claimed the group has already used

:15:23. > :15:26.chemical weapons in Syria and in Iraq.

:15:27. > :15:29.There is no doubt that if these madmen ever got their hands

:15:30. > :15:32.on a nuclear bomb or nuclear material,

:15:33. > :15:35.they most certainly would use it to kill as many innocent

:15:36. > :15:41.That's why our work here remains so critical.

:15:42. > :15:43.The single most effective defence against

:15:44. > :15:47.nuclear terrorism is fully securing this material so it doesn't fall

:15:48. > :15:50.into the wrong hands in the first place.

:15:51. > :15:52.More conventional threats were also on the agenda,

:15:53. > :15:55.especially North Korea's continued testing of

:15:56. > :16:00.It defiantly fired a missile during the Washington

:16:01. > :16:03.summit but blamed the United States for the tensions on the

:16:04. > :16:09.United States is trying to turn white into black,

:16:10. > :16:15.describing as if the countermeasures taken by the government of Korea

:16:16. > :16:20.They said that it is a threat and a provocation.

:16:21. > :16:24.Much will depend on the attitude of China's president,

:16:25. > :16:28.Xi Jinping, North Korea's closest ally.

:16:29. > :16:32.He was urged by Barack Obama to increase the pressure on Pyongyang.

:16:33. > :16:35.The meetings wound up with announcements of new steps

:16:36. > :16:38.to secure or reduce nuclear stockpiles but

:16:39. > :16:41.a key player, Russia's president, Vladimir Putin, was missing

:16:42. > :16:44.from the family photo because of current political

:16:45. > :16:48.tensions, a stark reminder of the summit's limits.

:16:49. > :16:50.President Obama began these high-level meetings six

:16:51. > :16:53.years ago to tackle the threat of nuclear material that could be

:16:54. > :16:58.Much has been accomplished but not enough and with

:16:59. > :17:00.the rise of groups like Islamic State, the fear of nuclear

:17:01. > :17:20.We start with the return of the Premier League

:17:21. > :17:24.Tottenham have closed the gap on Leicester.

:17:25. > :17:26.The game between Liverpool and Tottenham has finished

:17:27. > :17:30.Liverpool took the lead shortly after half time

:17:31. > :17:45.Harry Kane cemented his pedigree with 26 league goals this season.

:17:46. > :17:48.That is something no other Spurs player has managed

:17:49. > :17:59.It is difficult for the teams to get points.

:18:00. > :18:01.It is important today we show that we are ambitious

:18:02. > :18:07.In a difficult stadium at Anfield against

:18:08. > :18:10.Liverpool, we showed that we deserve to be in the place that we are.

:18:11. > :18:12.It was an open game, a little bit wild.

:18:13. > :18:15.brilliant attitude and both trying to win.

:18:16. > :18:34.Now, after five minutes, talking, it seems a deserved draw.

:18:35. > :18:42.Rafael Benitez says his Newcastle side still have a chance. Despite a

:18:43. > :18:45.last-minute defeat to Norwich. Alex Neil's side took a huge three

:18:46. > :18:47.points with Martin Olsson scoring a 93rd-minute winner to send

:18:48. > :18:50.the Carrow Road fans crazy. Norwich led twice but Newcastle

:18:51. > :18:52.striker Alexandr Mitrovic equalised on two occasions before

:18:53. > :19:05.Olsson's late winner. Today was a pity. We conceded after

:19:06. > :19:09.the last minute in the first half -- second half. We had control of the

:19:10. > :19:15.game and then I'm disappointed because I felt the team was working

:19:16. > :19:19.hard and not enough to win the game. I told them that we have seven games

:19:20. > :19:21.to play and we have to keep working hard and pushing.

:19:22. > :19:31.Also today there were comfortable 4-0 wins for Arsenal,

:19:32. > :19:34.Swansea came from two down to draw at Stoke.

:19:35. > :19:36.It was goalless between Sunderland and West Brom.

:19:37. > :19:39.Ten-man West Ham came from a goal down twice to draw 2-2

:19:40. > :19:51.Is the biggest game in Spain, the biggest in the world. Al Classico

:19:52. > :19:56.between Real Madrid and Barcelona, is drawing to a close. With

:19:57. > :20:03.thousands of fans in the stadium before kick-off, there was a tribute

:20:04. > :20:07.to yell Crawford died last week. Barcelona went in front ten minutes

:20:08. > :20:14.into the second half. Then Karen Benzema fired in eight minutes

:20:15. > :20:19.later. Cristiano Ronaldo gave his team a 2-1 lead.

:20:20. > :20:22.Formula One's new qualifying format still hasn't managed to shake up

:20:23. > :20:24.the established order after Lewis Hamilton claimed pole

:20:25. > :20:27.The world champion broke the lap record

:20:28. > :20:29.at the Bahrain circuit to beat his Mercedes team mate

:20:30. > :20:34.Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel was third to produce a repeat of the top three

:20:35. > :20:36.qualifying result from the first round of the season.

:20:37. > :20:40.Throughout qualifying, you do a lap and it

:20:41. > :20:47.So to actually pull it all together is actually

:20:48. > :20:58.And it actually even more of a pressured lap.

:20:59. > :21:01.I had to improve even more than I did the lap

:21:02. > :21:26.England's Catton says that England have to embrace the atmosphere.

:21:27. > :21:30.We are realistic, it will not be a normal game. Even in the semifinals

:21:31. > :21:35.there was a lot of hype around the expectation about playing in the

:21:36. > :21:39.final. I want all our players to embrace it. Tomorrow, everything

:21:40. > :21:43.will feel rushed to start with. It is important that we are in a good

:21:44. > :21:49.frame of mind to slow things down when needed and execute our skills.

:21:50. > :21:52.Even before we played West Indies in the group stages, I was firm in

:21:53. > :22:02.saying that Chris Gayle was not just the West Indies team. It is

:22:03. > :22:05.important that when you are playing against good size, you don't focus

:22:06. > :22:07.on one or two players, it is everybody, everybody can hurt you.

:22:08. > :22:10.India game, everybody witnessed that. Play with them over the years,

:22:11. > :22:16.I have understood them, what makes them tick. How to relate to them in

:22:17. > :22:21.different situations. This comes with experience. So if you could

:22:22. > :22:26.see, this tournament I have not really done anything apart from

:22:27. > :22:29.leading them out there on the field. They are so experienced, I'm letting

:22:30. > :22:35.them go out and express themselves because T20 is about expressing

:22:36. > :22:38.yourself. And to confirm, Barcelona defeated

:22:39. > :22:45.by Real Madrid in Spain. That's all the sport for now.

:22:46. > :22:47.Like many aspects of life in Pakistan, tea houses

:22:48. > :22:52.But a group of women in Karachi has decided to challenge the tradition -

:22:53. > :22:53.simply by visiting the cafes to socialise.

:22:54. > :22:56.Their actions are starting to inspire other women to follow

:22:57. > :23:04.suit - as Shaimaa Khalil found out when she joined them...

:23:05. > :23:06.A typical Karachi afternoon in a traditional teahouse, or dhaba.

:23:07. > :23:10.This is one of the most popular hangouts in Pakistan.

:23:11. > :23:21.And while there isn't a "men only" sign here,

:23:22. > :23:26.it is socially understood that these teahouses are run

:23:27. > :23:38.A group of women have now started a movement to change that.

:23:39. > :23:46.Deep down, I think, why can't I negotiate my way in public in
