:00:07. > :00:10.A powerful earthquake has struck near the Japanese city of Kumamoto,
:00:11. > :00:12.just over 24 hours after a tremor in the same area
:00:13. > :00:18.The quake - with a magnitude of 7.1 -
:00:19. > :00:20.happened in the early hours of the morning.
:00:21. > :00:24.Several aftershocks have been reported.
:00:25. > :00:26.Five people from Birmingham are being questioned,
:00:27. > :00:31.as officials describe the arrests as "significant".

:00:42. > :00:45.Definitely not every day after the manufacturer
:00:46. > :00:48.warns some products contain so much sugar and salt -
:00:49. > :00:57.you should only have them once a week.
:00:58. > :01:00.Those men are about to disburse. Engaged now.

:01:04. > :01:20.as she plays a tough soldier in her new film Eye In The Sky.
:01:21. > :01:23.For the second time in 24 hours, a powerful earthquake
:01:24. > :01:28.The quake - with a magnitude of 7.1 -
:01:29. > :01:31.happened in the early hours of the morning.
:01:32. > :01:35.Both quakes have hit near Kumamoto, on the island of Kyushu.
:01:36. > :01:38.Pictures from Japan's NHK television showed buildings shaking
:01:39. > :01:43.There are reports of people being trapped
:01:44. > :01:48.Nine people are known to have died and more than 1,000 injured
:01:49. > :01:51.from the first tremor on Thursday night.
:01:52. > :01:54.Officials are warning that the death toll may rise
:01:55. > :02:06.Rupert Wingfield Hayes is our correspondent in Tokyo.
:02:07. > :02:15.Another earthquake. Once again during the night, in the same area.
:02:16. > :02:19.Absolutely devastating. Absolutely terrifying for the people of that
:02:20. > :02:27.region. What we have seen on television is very large knobs of
:02:28. > :02:31.people, thousands of people in public spaces, wrapped in blankets,
:02:32. > :02:36.basically scared from this double shock that they have had. There was
:02:37. > :02:41.a very big shake last night and now we have had another big shake
:02:42. > :02:44.tonight. The intensity of the shaking, although the magnitude of
:02:45. > :02:49.the quaking was bigger than last night's, the intensity was slightly
:02:50. > :02:53.less. It looks like there has been damaged. We have heard reports of
:02:54. > :02:57.people calling on mobiles from inside buildings, saying they are
:02:58. > :03:03.trapped. There are a number of rescues going on at the moment.
:03:04. > :03:07.There were rest is going on from the initial quake as well. It is
:03:08. > :03:11.difficult to determine from the pictures we are seeing as to whether
:03:12. > :03:15.a lot of the pictures we are seeing are fresh damage or whether the
:03:16. > :03:19.damage from last night's earthquake. It is a confusing picture at the
:03:20. > :03:23.moment. This second quake appears to have affected the wider area, deeper
:03:24. > :03:30.into the countryside, into the mountains. That is where some of the
:03:31. > :03:33.fresh damage has been done. It looks like, initially, we have sketchy
:03:34. > :03:38.information, but it looks like there may be some freshly collapsed
:03:39. > :03:43.buildings from this second earthquake. When we spoke after the
:03:44. > :03:48.first quake, you said you felt it in Tokyo. Did you feel this second one?
:03:49. > :03:53.No, I didn't. That is not to say that it wasn't felt here, I just did
:03:54. > :03:58.not feel it. The initial quake and an earthquake were both held in
:03:59. > :04:05.Tokyo. That was some intense shaking. This one was slightly less
:04:06. > :04:11.so, but still of the destructive magnitude. As always, thank you very
:04:12. > :04:13.much. We will continue to monitor events there.
:04:14. > :04:19.Brian Baptie is a seismologist who joins me on the line from Edinburgh.
:04:20. > :04:25.Thank you for your time. We heard our correspondent in Tokyo saying
:04:26. > :04:32.that this was a stronger magnitude quake, this second quake. Yes, that
:04:33. > :04:36.is right. It was around 30 times larger in terms of the energy
:04:37. > :04:42.released, and that meant many more people were exposed to the strong
:04:43. > :04:52.shaking, maybe over 500,000 people were exposed to strong shaking,
:04:53. > :05:00.increasing the chance of casualties. We also had tsunami warnings which
:05:01. > :05:07.have now been lifted. As I understand it am the early warning
:05:08. > :05:12.centre does not expect a destructive tsunami. That would be unlikely for
:05:13. > :05:18.this type of earthquake anyway, given that it happened onshore, and
:05:19. > :05:22.the type of fault that cause the earthquake is unlikely to reduce a
:05:23. > :05:26.tsunami. This region is used to earthquakes. How prepared is it?
:05:27. > :05:31.Japan is generally very well prepared for earthquakes, so most
:05:32. > :05:36.structures in the region are resistant to earthquake shaking.
:05:37. > :05:45.That can mitigate the number of casualties. Although there are
:05:46. > :05:49.structures like heavy wall constructions, those can be
:05:50. > :05:55.vulnerable to earthquakes. Otherwise, Japan is very prepared
:05:56. > :06:00.for earthquakes. We are being told that this most recent quake was at a
:06:01. > :06:05.depth of around ten kilometres. What does that mean for the people on the
:06:06. > :06:11.ground? Obviously, the shallower the earthquake, the stronger the shaking
:06:12. > :06:14.at the epicentre because the earthquake is closer to the surface,
:06:15. > :06:23.whether people. In this part of Japan, shallow earthquakes are
:06:24. > :06:30.relatively unusual. Usually they are much greater depths, tens or
:06:31. > :06:39.hundreds of calamitous. The shaking is often less. Because of the
:06:40. > :06:47.shallow depth, the quakes can be more destructive. We remembered the
:06:48. > :06:53.tragic incidents of 2011, which was a tsunami. How do these two
:06:54. > :07:01.earthquakes compare with those in 2011? In terms of the site of the
:07:02. > :07:04.earthquake, these are much smaller. They are about 1000 times smaller in
:07:05. > :07:16.terms of the energy released. That earthquake occurred relatively far
:07:17. > :07:22.offshore, a couple of hundred kilometres. The ball not merely at
:07:23. > :07:25.the centre. In this case, there were cities close to the epicentre, so
:07:26. > :07:30.the shaking being experienced with the very strong indeed. I would
:07:31. > :07:39.expect people to have experienced very severe shaking. A terrifying
:07:40. > :07:44.experience for those involved. Thank you very much for talking us through
:07:45. > :07:48.that. We will continue to monitor events from Japan as we get news of
:07:49. > :07:51.that second earthquake. Five people in the UK
:07:52. > :07:53.are being questioned on suspicion of terrorism,
:07:54. > :07:55.as part of an investigation linked to the attacks
:07:56. > :07:57.in Paris and Brussels. Three men and a woman
:07:58. > :07:59.were detained in Birmingham. Another man was arrested
:08:00. > :08:01.at Gatwick airport. Government officials say
:08:02. > :08:03.the arrests are "significant". The operation began late last night
:08:04. > :08:09.when West Midlands counterterrorism detectives arrested four people
:08:10. > :08:13.in Birmingham - three men aged 26, Then, a few hours later,
:08:14. > :08:21.in the early hours of this morning at Gatwick Airport, a fifth arrest,
:08:22. > :08:23.of another 26-year-old man as he stepped off a flight
:08:24. > :08:29.from North Africa. Police say the arrests,
:08:30. > :08:31.described by security sources as significant,
:08:32. > :08:34.follow a joint investigation with French and Belgian
:08:35. > :08:37.security services after It's three and a half weeks
:08:38. > :08:44.since the bombs in Brussels - at the airport and on the Metro -
:08:45. > :08:51.in which 32 people died, and five months since the attacks
:08:52. > :08:55.in Paris which killed 130. Both attacks have been
:08:56. > :08:59.linked to a Belgian man called Mohamed Abrini,
:09:00. > :09:01.who was known to have Mohamed Abrini is thought
:09:02. > :09:05.to be the man in the hat, seen here at Brussels airport just
:09:06. > :09:09.before the attack. He was arrested after
:09:10. > :09:11.four weeks on the run. He is also thought to have been
:09:12. > :09:15.caught by a CCTV camera at a French petrol station with the leader
:09:16. > :09:19.of the Paris attacks just two days before they were carried out,
:09:20. > :09:22.potentially connecting him The BBC has been told that Abrini
:09:23. > :09:28.visited Birmingham last summer, Pictures of a football stadium
:09:29. > :09:37.were later found on his phone. All five people arrested last night
:09:38. > :09:41.are still being questioned They are being held on suspicion
:09:42. > :09:44.of terrorism, The Belgian Transport Minister
:09:45. > :09:51.has resigned after accusations that she received details of
:09:52. > :09:56.security lapses at Belgian airports long before the bombings
:09:57. > :10:01.in Brussels last month. Jacqueline Galant's
:10:02. > :10:03.resignation was accepted From Brussels our
:10:04. > :10:18.correspondent Anna Holligan. What happened here put airport
:10:19. > :10:22.security under intense scrutiny. 32 people were killed in the attacks.
:10:23. > :10:26.The emergence of this document has raised the question, but more have
:10:27. > :10:32.been done to prevent their deaths? The critical report showed lapses in
:10:33. > :10:37.security were identified by the US inspectors in March last year, 12
:10:38. > :10:40.months before the bombings. The Transport Minister, Jacqueline
:10:41. > :10:45.Galant, surgery was not aware of the report. That was not enough to end
:10:46. > :10:55.speculation that she had seen a summarised version.
:10:56. > :11:00.TRANSLATION: The orchestrated chaos permits before doing my job
:11:01. > :11:05.peacefully. The investigations continue into whether she received
:11:06. > :11:11.the information and whether the right action was taken. The two
:11:12. > :11:14.suicide bombers blew themselves up in the departures area, and would
:11:15. > :11:21.not normally have faced any checks. Here in Brussels or at any other
:11:22. > :11:24.European airport. The Belgian government is struggling to defend
:11:25. > :11:30.its reputation. There is a wide enquiry into whether any judicial,
:11:31. > :11:35.security or police measures could have prevented the attacks. The
:11:36. > :11:39.Prime Minister is insisting that Belgium is not a failed state.
:11:40. > :11:44.Despite making some progress in the investigations, the presence of this
:11:45. > :11:47.report is keeping pressure on the Belgian government.
:11:48. > :11:51.There are warnings that a huge surge in the number
:11:52. > :11:54.of migrants arriving in Italy by sea is set to continue.
:11:55. > :11:56.The International Organisation for Migration warns
:11:57. > :11:59.that nearly 6,000 have arrived since Tuesday alone.
:12:00. > :12:02.It says that in the week to April the 13th arrivals
:12:03. > :12:08.in the country were 173% higher than the previous week.
:12:09. > :12:11.Whilst in Greece arrivals were 76% lower.
:12:12. > :12:15.Officials in Libya say they fear the closure of the migrant route
:12:16. > :12:19.through Greece is leading to the surge.
:12:20. > :12:23.the European Union's foreign policy chief, Federica Mogherini,
:12:24. > :12:25.acknowledged that migrant routes could be shifting
:12:26. > :12:30.back towards the central Mediterranean again.
:12:31. > :12:34.It is true, though, that the corridor,
:12:35. > :12:42.It has shifted significantly, also probably thanks
:12:43. > :12:45.to the operation we have here, to the east of the Mediterranean.
:12:46. > :12:50.We can cross to Geneva and speak to Joel Millman
:12:51. > :12:54.from the International Organisation for Migration.
:12:55. > :13:03.He joins us live. Is this surge of arrivals in Italy down to the
:13:04. > :13:08.arguable success of that deal that Turkey had with EU you, to deter
:13:09. > :13:18.people from crossing between Turkey and Greece? No, there is no link
:13:19. > :13:22.between the two. We know that the numbers are down to radically
:13:23. > :13:28.increase. We also know the nationalities of the ethnic group
:13:29. > :13:35.who use that route from Turkey into Greece, over 1 million people in the
:13:36. > :13:37.last 15 months, and those ethnic groups and nationalities are not
:13:38. > :13:44.showing up in the numbers that are crossing from Libya. They are the
:13:45. > :13:50.same Horn of Africa and West African people that we have seen for the
:13:51. > :14:00.last year. We know that they know the route. There is not a direct
:14:01. > :14:05.correlation in one getting busier and one getting slower. The two
:14:06. > :14:15.distinct trends and we're them closely. Why do we see such a huge
:14:16. > :14:18.fries, 6000 people since Tuesday? That was for the whole of the
:14:19. > :14:31.Mediterranean, and some of that is coming through Greece. We have been
:14:32. > :14:34.clarifying that today. Many have been rescued since Tuesday. Probably
:14:35. > :14:39.many more today. This is not an extraordinary number for that route.
:14:40. > :14:43.We saw this last year, April was very busy, with lots of deaths on
:14:44. > :14:49.that route. Close to 1000 people were killed just in the month of
:14:50. > :15:00.April last year. We know that this is a time when a lot of pent-up
:15:01. > :15:03.demand gets released into the sea. That accounts for the large lover of
:15:04. > :15:15.deaths we have been seeing in the last few days. It is still very
:15:16. > :15:20.alarming. It is not a lot compared to a year ago. I know you will
:15:21. > :15:25.continue to monitor all of that. Thank you. Apologies for the sound
:15:26. > :15:26.quality. One of Britain's biggest food
:15:27. > :15:28.manufacturers has told shoppers that some of their products have
:15:29. > :15:31.so much sugar and salt in them, they shouldn't be eaten
:15:32. > :15:34.more than once a week. Mars, which makes Dolmio sauces
:15:35. > :15:36.and Uncle Ben's rice, to distinguish between what it calls
:15:37. > :15:41.everyday foods and occasional ones. Here's our health correspondent,
:15:42. > :15:47.Dominic Hughes. For busy mum of two
:15:48. > :15:52.Sussana Maldryk, time is precious. When it comes to getting the kids'
:15:53. > :15:54.dinner on the table, and that is where a cooking
:15:55. > :15:58.sauce comes into its own. They are ideal, nowadays everybody
:15:59. > :16:01.has got pasta in the cupboards. It is easy - heat it up,
:16:02. > :16:04.pour it over, you've got a meal When you have got babies crying,
:16:05. > :16:09.you need to have something quick But there has been growing concern
:16:10. > :16:16.around the amount of salt, sugar and fat hidden in prepared sauces,
:16:17. > :16:19.and the impact they are having Of course, it is not just the Mars
:16:20. > :16:25.group that produces these products, most of the major food manufacturers
:16:26. > :16:29.have come up with similar products. The problem for consumers, shoppers,
:16:30. > :16:35.is trying to calculate how much salt, fat or sugar
:16:36. > :16:37.these sauces contain. So concentrating just on sugar
:16:38. > :16:39.content, in this jar of tomato sauce, there are the equivalent
:16:40. > :16:45.of four teaspoons of sugar. has the equivalent of seven
:16:46. > :16:55.teaspoons of sugar. Now the food giant Mars has decided
:16:56. > :16:59.to publicly warned its customers that some of its products have
:17:00. > :17:04.so much fat, sugar and salt they should only be consumed
:17:05. > :17:07.once a week. The ingredients of other products
:17:08. > :17:11.will be changed in the coming years We really hope that
:17:12. > :17:14.others will follow us. We've taken the most exacting
:17:15. > :17:18.standards, the WHO guidelines. We believe that will set us up very
:17:19. > :17:21.well when it comes to not just and we would be delighted if other
:17:22. > :17:26.industry members joined us too. Food retailers say it is
:17:27. > :17:29.an interesting proposal but for it to be effective it should apply
:17:30. > :17:32.across the industry, and in the wake of the sugar
:17:33. > :17:35.tax on fizzy drinks, some experts believe
:17:36. > :17:37.Mars is being clever, making sure it is well positioned
:17:38. > :17:42.ahead of any possible They are definitely leading the way,
:17:43. > :17:49.but it is not enough to tackle the obesity crisis,
:17:50. > :17:52.so it is not taking responsibility for the unhealthy
:17:53. > :17:53.ingredients in their food. They are still relying on consumers
:17:54. > :17:56.to make those choices, when there is not a great healthy
:17:57. > :18:01.food supply for them to do so. Concerns about our diet
:18:02. > :18:03.and a growing problem with obesity, especially among children,
:18:04. > :18:05.has ramped up the pressure They want to show they're responding
:18:06. > :18:10.and can regulate themselves, so where Mars is leading,
:18:11. > :18:22.others are likely to follow. Germany says it will allow
:18:23. > :18:24.the prosecution of a comedian who mocked the Turkish president -
:18:25. > :18:27.under an obscure law that forbids Mr Boehmermann had recited
:18:28. > :18:30.a satirical poem on German television which made sexual
:18:31. > :18:36.references to the Turkish president. Damien McGuinness in Berlin

:19:05. > :19:06.is Germany's most innovative No holds barred,
:19:07. > :19:11.and everyone is fair game. He's also very popular
:19:12. > :19:15.here in Germany, which means that
:19:16. > :19:17.if he were to be charged, there would no doubt
:19:18. > :19:20.be widespread outrage. You make fun of us Germans
:19:21. > :19:23.liking David Hasselhoff, We mainly like two things,
:19:24. > :19:27.war and David Hasselhoff. For Recep Tayyip Erdogan,
:19:28. > :19:38.satire is no laughing matter. Since he became president in 2014,
:19:39. > :19:42.almost 2,000 cases have opened Jan Bohmermann, this German
:19:43. > :19:51.satirist, is just the latest target. They have included
:19:52. > :19:52.beauty queens, artists, who has been sued for insulting
:19:53. > :20:06.the president in newspaper columns that he insists are quite simply
:20:07. > :20:09.the critical of the Government line. He has very strong
:20:10. > :20:10.autocratic tendencies, He wants to monopolise the power
:20:11. > :20:14.in his hands and, for that, he does not want any sort
:20:15. > :20:16.of tarnished image. he needs not
:20:17. > :20:25.to be criticised at all. The President's supporters say
:20:26. > :20:30.criticism and insult are different and that,
:20:31. > :20:37.under the Turkish constitution, insulting the head of state
:20:38. > :20:39.is a crime. That was rarely invoked
:20:40. > :20:41.by Mr Erdogan's predecessors. it is a sign that freedom
:20:42. > :20:44.of expression has been muzzled. Many opposition newspapers
:20:45. > :20:46.have been taken over. There has even been the case
:20:47. > :20:49.recently of a husband who reported his wife
:20:50. > :20:51.for insulting the president, a climate produced here
:20:52. > :20:55.in which dissent is not tolerated. In today's Turkey,
:20:56. > :21:18.Mr Erdogan has the last laugh. Dame Helen Mirren has
:21:19. > :21:20.called for actresses to go She has been talking about gender

:21:38. > :21:42.to capture a group of terrorists from their safe-house
:21:43. > :21:47.in Nairobi, Kenya. We have intelligence of a meeting
:21:48. > :21:54.with key members of al-Shabab. We believe that they are
:21:55. > :21:56.connected to the recent We have been tracking
:21:57. > :22:03.them for six years. We have information they will

:22:09. > :22:10.to capture. With me is Karen Krizanovich, who
:22:11. > :22:25.is an expert in the film industry. Do you find it frustrating that Dame
:22:26. > :22:30.Helen Mirren has to make these kind of calls for women to take on more
:22:31. > :22:34.male dominated roles? There has always been a fight, getting any
:22:35. > :22:42.role is difficult for a woman. There has been a fight to get women
:22:43. > :22:52.treated as a real person rather than stereotypes. I think it is
:22:53. > :22:57.important. We have to consider the idea of, she is just playing a man
:22:58. > :23:02.in a dress. This statement is really important, to make people aware of
:23:03. > :23:06.the lack of reality that is a reflected in a lot of films was the
:23:07. > :23:12.izzard not patronising question what if she is a good actress, she should
