Italy mourns the 300 victims of Wednesday's earthquake. | :00:07. | :00:14. | |
A state funeral is held in one of the worst hit towns. | :00:15. | :00:22. | |
TRANSLATION: My colleagues and I were the ones | :00:23. | :00:29. | |
who arrived straight after the earthquake struck in the middle of | :00:30. | :00:33. | |
the night. We wanted to rescue people and being here was the least | :00:34. | :00:34. | |
we could do. The last buses carrying armed rebels | :00:35. | :00:39. | |
and civilians have been evacuated from the besieged Syrian | :00:40. | :00:41. | |
town of Darayya. And why Donald Trump's doctor says | :00:42. | :00:43. | |
he'll be the "healthiest individual And flying just a few thousand | :00:44. | :00:55. | |
kilometres from the swirling cloud tops of Jupiter, a Nasa probe hopes | :00:56. | :01:02. | |
to capture pictures of the planet's weather systems. | :01:03. | :01:11. | |
Despite the aftershocks - a mass funeral has been | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
in central Italy for the hundreds of people killed after | :01:15. | :01:17. | |
At least 290 people lost their lives. | :01:18. | :01:21. | |
President Sergio Mattarella, seen here comforting one victim, | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
and Prime Minister Matteo Renzi both attended the main service. | :01:26. | :01:31. | |
Mourners applauded as coffins were placed in hearses | :01:32. | :01:33. | |
A local bishop pledged that communities would be "rebuilt | :01:34. | :01:39. | |
Earlier the Italian President visited Amatrice - | :01:40. | :01:43. | |
There, more than 230 people lost their lives. | :01:44. | :01:49. | |
Officials say the search for survivors will continue | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
until they are certain that no-one else was alive. | :01:53. | :01:54. | |
Our correspondent James Reynolds sent this report. | :01:55. | :02:07. | |
This morning, in a municipal gym, Italy improvise a state funeral. | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
The country's president tried to comfort each family. | :02:12. | :02:19. | |
He has declared this a day of national mourning. | :02:20. | :02:22. | |
The coffins of more than 30 victims were lined up. | :02:23. | :02:25. | |
They will all be buried in the ground that claimed their lives. | :02:26. | :02:35. | |
During the service, a bishop announced | :02:36. | :02:37. | |
In this hall, on this day, consolation came without words. | :02:38. | :02:51. | |
TRANSLATION: When the earthquake struck, my friend tried | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
Among the congregation, there were a number of rescuers | :02:55. | :03:03. | |
taking their first break from the relief efforts. | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
TRANSLATION: My colleagues and I were the ones who arrived | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
straight after the earthquake struck in the middle of the night. | :03:13. | :03:17. | |
and being here was the least we could do, to be year. | :03:18. | :03:31. | |
This for Italy is its most intense period of mourning in years. | :03:32. | :03:41. | |
The country will hope that this ceremony and these crowds will have | :03:42. | :03:44. | |
given some consolation to the families of the dead. | :03:45. | :03:46. | |
This man just wants to see what has happened to his house. | :03:47. | :03:49. | |
Firefighters took him through the ruins of his village | :03:50. | :03:51. | |
We left the house a couple of days before the quake, he says. | :03:52. | :03:55. | |
His neighbour, who was here, was killed. | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
Relief workers allow survivors to pick up belongings | :04:00. | :04:01. | |
They carry away pieces of their old lives which they will | :04:02. | :04:06. | |
James spent the day in Amatrice and he told me how people are coping | :04:07. | :04:19. | |
almost three days on. A lot of the town isn't here any | :04:20. | :04:29. | |
more. It a lot of the survivors have been moved to sports tents. Most of | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
the people you see in the town are rescue workers, firefighters, even | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
police officers and the army as well and structural experts. This has | :04:41. | :04:48. | |
become an area which they will still tried to recover bodies and try to | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
rebuild. What about the rescue effort, is | :04:52. | :04:55. | |
there any hope any survivors will be found? Not from anybody my | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
colleagues and I have spoken to in recent days. You can probably hear | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
that a digger is going past. The relief work is still continuing but | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
nobody expects anyone else to be found. The most recent body to be | :05:10. | :05:13. | |
pulled out of the rubble was on Wednesday evening and that was | :05:14. | :05:17. | |
several days ago and they don't effect any change. 2500 people have | :05:18. | :05:25. | |
been made homeless, what talk is there of the reconstruction effort? | :05:26. | :05:31. | |
I think that is still too early, but it is something New Year people | :05:32. | :05:35. | |
talking about amongst themselves. My colleagues and I were in a small | :05:36. | :05:39. | |
village on Friday and they said they didn't think there was any future, | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
that it would simply be raised to the ground and people moved | :05:44. | :05:47. | |
elsewhere. The arm not just worried about losing their past, they are | :05:48. | :05:51. | |
worried about losing their future. They think their memories have been | :05:52. | :05:54. | |
destroyed and they are not sure where they will live in the future. | :05:55. | :05:57. | |
And there's much more detail on the Italian earthquake | :05:58. | :06:00. | |
You'll find latest updates, stories of people who survived | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
the tragedy, and aerial photography of the affected areas. | :06:06. | :06:07. | |

Let's go now to the Syrian town of Darayya, | :06:12. | :06:14. | |
which has been under siege for four years. | :06:15. | :06:16. | |
Well, a deal struck between the government | :06:17. | :06:18. | |
and rebel groups has meant that all rebel | :06:19. | :06:20. | |
fighters have left the town, according to the army. | :06:21. | :06:22. | |
Leaving Darayya, perhaps never to return. The last buses taking rebel | :06:23. | :06:41. | |
fighters out of the town on the outskirts of Damascus which held out | :06:42. | :06:46. | |
for four years. Fighters chose to keep their personal weapons and have | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
headed to revel in areas north of the capital, with their families. | :06:50. | :06:54. | |
Convoys of buses took thousands more to reception centres and an | :06:55. | :06:59. | |
uncertain future. Soldiers celebrated their passing, hailing | :07:00. | :07:04. | |
the exodus as a big victory for President Assad. | :07:05. | :07:06. | |
TRANSLATION: After five years of military | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
operations by the Syrian government forces, don't riot -- Amatrice is | :07:10. | :07:18. | |
finally liberated. Later, the armed residents and rebels will be | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
relocated. As the evacuation unfolded, mouth on talks were being | :07:24. | :07:29. | |
held in Geneva between John Kerry and Sergei Lavrov. Represent a size | :07:30. | :07:35. | |
on opposite sides. They reached the concrete agreement on a way to start | :07:36. | :07:38. | |
abortive peace talks but they say they are getting closer and | :07:39. | :07:43. | |
discussions are continuing. Mr Kerry said that they had at least achieve | :07:44. | :07:48. | |
clarity. Something which is lacking on the ground in Syria. A new twist | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
emerged this week as Turkey launched an incursion this week, targeting | :07:53. | :07:59. | |
Islamic State fighters and Kurdish forces. They are part of an alliance | :08:00. | :08:05. | |
which the US force banks. That offensive has been intensified. | :08:06. | :08:07. | |
Turkish warplanes have been in action against Kurdish fighters. It | :08:08. | :08:15. | |
regards the Kurds as as big a threat as the IS. It is yet another | :08:16. | :08:19. | |
publication, raising the stakes in the conflict. | :08:20. | :08:21. | |
Let's take a look at some other stories now. | :08:22. | :08:23. | |
Russian authorities say at least 17 people have been killed by a fire | :08:24. | :08:26. | |
at a warehouse and printing press in Moscow. | :08:27. | :08:28. | |
The victims are reported to be migrant workers from Kyrgyzstan | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
who worked and lived at the warehouse. | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
About 30 French mayors have been urged to follow a court | :08:36. | :08:38. | |
ruling which overturned a controversial burkini | :08:39. | :08:40. | |
France's top administrative court suspended the ban in Villeneuve | :08:41. | :08:47. | |
But a number of mayors have said they will continue | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
Facebook has announced that a feature on its site which shows | :08:53. | :09:07. | |
which stories are trending will no longer be produced by staff, but by | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
an algorithm. It comes after the giant was accused of left-wing bias. | :09:13. | :09:16. | |
Physical fitness has become the latest flash point of the US | :09:17. | :09:18. | |
Donald Trump's doctor has just admitted he spent just five | :09:19. | :09:22. | |
minutes writing a note - which says the 70-year-old would be | :09:23. | :09:28. | |
the "healthiest individual ever elected to the Presidency". | :09:29. | :09:30. | |
Laura Bicker in Washington has more. | :09:31. | :09:35. | |
It started by Donald Trump himself, who said that Hillary Clinton lacked | :09:36. | :09:45. | |
the physical and mental stamina to deal with the so-called Islamic | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
State group. He also implied that she has the language disorder | :09:51. | :09:54. | |
dysphagia. So it went on all week. Hillary Clinton went on a talk show | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
and asked the interviewer to feel her pulse, to laugh it off. Then | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
everybody remember that last December, Dr Harold Bernstein wrote | :10:06. | :10:10. | |
a letter about Donald Trump's health, saying that his laboratory | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
tests were astonishingly excellent and his strength and stamina was | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
extraordinary and as you imagine, that he would be the healthiest | :10:19. | :10:22. | |
individual ever elected to the presidency. So NBC traction down and | :10:23. | :10:26. | |
it does seem that the doctor admits writing that note in five minutes. | :10:27. | :10:32. | |
While waiting for a limousine. He also was asked about the language | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
that he used. He said, I think they're probably picked up Donald | :10:37. | :10:41. | |
Trump's kind of language and then just interpreted it to my own. Let's | :10:42. | :10:48. | |
talk about immigration. Donald Trump has said quite a few controversial | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
comment on that. Is he softening his position on the topic? Well, Donald | :10:53. | :11:01. | |
Trump has built his candidacy on his stance on immigration. He says he | :11:02. | :11:05. | |
will deport 11 million illegal immigrants and build that "Big | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
beautiful wall" on the Mexican border. There has been a softening | :11:10. | :11:17. | |
of this stands recently. He told Fox News that certain people could stay | :11:18. | :11:21. | |
if they paid their taxes. He went the next day to flip-flop on that | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
and said that everybody had to go back. He was supposed to make an | :11:26. | :11:30. | |
immigration speech on Thursday. That was cancelled and his campaign | :11:31. | :11:34. | |
manager is now talking about the deportation squad that was talking | :11:35. | :11:42. | |
about the -- that deportation squad to move these people said that this | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
policy was to be determined. We are waiting to see what it stands will | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
be. He is due at a rally in Iowa and it will be interesting to see what | :11:52. | :11:53. | |
happens there. Stay with us on BBC | :11:54. | :11:58. | |
World News, still to come... A lucky escape for some motorist as | :11:59. | :12:06. | |
a footbridge collapses on a motorway. | :12:07. | :12:36. | |
There is no doubt that this election is an important milestone in East | :12:37. | :12:43. | |
Timor. It will take months and billions of | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
dollars to repair what Katrina achieved in just hours. | :12:48. | :12:53. | |
Three weeks is the longest the great clock has been of duty in 117 years. | :12:54. | :12:59. | |
So it was with great satisfaction that clockmaker John Vernon swung | :13:00. | :13:03. | |
the pendulum to set the clock going again. | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
A day of national mourning in Italy, with a state funeral for 34 more | :13:10. | :13:17. | |
The last buses carrying armed rebels and civilians have been evacuated | :13:18. | :13:24. | |
from the besieged Syrian town of Darayya. | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
Police in Bangladesh say they've shot dead the man suspected | :13:29. | :13:30. | |
of planning last month's attack on a cafe in Dhaka that killed | :13:31. | :13:34. | |
He and two others were killed in a shoot out after | :13:35. | :13:43. | |
Our correspondent Akbar Hossain has more. | :13:44. | :13:50. | |
The death of the man is not surprising to many as police had | :13:51. | :13:58. | |
declared $25,000 reward for providing information. He is | :13:59. | :14:00. | |
described as the organiser of the attack on the cafe in temperate -- | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
Dhaka. It was attacked after a tip-off was received. Suspected | :14:07. | :14:11. | |
Islamic resistance were shot dead in the operation along with the man, a | :14:12. | :14:21. | |
Canadian who returned to this area a while ago. Police said they had been | :14:22. | :14:26. | |
following him for a long time. We completed our preparation overnight | :14:27. | :14:31. | |
before conducting the raid. Our main anti-terror operation lasted for one | :14:32. | :14:34. | |
hour. After that we got inside the house and found the dead bodies of | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
three militants including this man. The photos matched with one of the | :14:39. | :14:44. | |
dead religions. It proves that he is the man, that we were looking for | :14:45. | :14:50. | |
for a long time. The death of this man has been described as a success | :14:51. | :14:56. | |
for ongoing terror raids. Senior officers claimed that he planned the | :14:57. | :15:02. | |
whole terrorist attack attack on the cafe and played a role in organising | :15:03. | :15:08. | |
a local jihadi groups which is loyal to Islamic State. And the desk is | :15:09. | :15:14. | |
facing international pressure following the attack. The Prime | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
Minister declared that her government will show no mercy to | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
Islamic militants. Police believe that with the death of this man, | :15:22. | :15:25. | |
they are on the verge of crushing Islamic militancy in Bangladesh. | :15:26. | :15:36. | |
A bridge over a main motorway in the south east of England has | :15:37. | :15:39. | |
A pedestrian footbridge was brought down after a lorry crashed into it - | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
showering debris onto the road underneath. | :15:44. | :15:47. | |
Fortunately nobody is thought to have been seriously hurt. | :15:48. | :15:49. | |
The driver of this truck is counting his blessings. | :15:50. | :15:55. | |
The footbridge just misses cab as it fell. | :15:56. | :15:57. | |
A motorcyclist is pinned to the ground with suspected broken | :15:58. | :15:59. | |
For many others, this was a close call. | :16:00. | :16:05. | |
We were literally a few cars behind so we just saw the bridge | :16:06. | :16:16. | |
come down and obviously, not really expecting that sort | :16:17. | :16:18. | |
of thing to happen, so it was a shock. | :16:19. | :16:20. | |
It is thought that the lorry, carrying a digger, may have been | :16:21. | :16:28. | |
travelling on the hard shoulder of the east side | :16:29. | :16:30. | |
On one of the busiest days of the bank holiday weekend, | :16:31. | :16:34. | |
the closure of the bridge caused disruption. | :16:35. | :16:36. | |
This is one of the main routes to France. | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
There were astonishingly no other injuries in this accident | :16:43. | :16:44. | |
and when you get this close, you can see just how many lucky | :16:45. | :16:47. | |
-- how many lucky escapes there were. | :16:48. | :16:56. | |
Even the driver of that white truck walked away shaken | :16:57. | :16:58. | |
As well as the fallen concrete beam, the lorries would have to be moved | :16:59. | :17:04. | |
and the rest of the bridge will have to be made safe or demolished. | :17:05. | :17:08. | |
Luckily, this is a story of disruption, not a disaster. | :17:09. | :17:17. | |
Now some sport. A late winner from Marcus Rushford made sure Manchester | :17:18. | :17:24. | |
United keep their 100% start to the season with a 1-0 win at Hull city. | :17:25. | :17:30. | |
United put pressure on the defence all game but it was 18-year-old | :17:31. | :17:34. | |
substitute Rasch Road who made a difference. He scored in the 92nd | :17:35. | :17:39. | |
minute. That gives United their third league went after -- out of | :17:40. | :17:46. | |
three. It's an amazing feelings are scored the winner at an away game. | :17:47. | :17:51. | |
Just happy to get the three points. Did they manage to give the special | :17:52. | :17:55. | |
instructions? He said go on and do my best to help the team with the | :17:56. | :17:59. | |
game and that's what we did. Everyone has been together for 90 | :18:00. | :18:03. | |
minutes and I'm just very happy. Chelsea made it three wins from | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
three as well in the league. They are under Antonio Conte now. They | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
beat Burnley 3-0 thanks to goals from Eden Hazzard and Willie and. | :18:14. | :18:22. | |
There was -- defeated Burnley have three defeats from their opening | :18:23. | :18:26. | |
three games. Leicester City got their first win beating Swansea 2-1. | :18:27. | :18:33. | |
Jamie Vardy scored his first goal of the season. Mahrez missed a penalty | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
before Wes Morgan added his goal after the break. There was a | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
consolation goal for Swansea. Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool drew | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
1-1 in the early kick-off. Everton have moved up to second, | :18:47. | :18:53. | |
their best start to a season in years. Leighton Baines's penalty was | :18:54. | :18:58. | |
saved only for the ball to rebound off the head of Shay given for an | :18:59. | :19:04. | |
own goal. Sunderland were ahead 1-0 before Jay | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
Rodriguez scored for the other side. And Arsenal beat Watford by three | :19:09. | :19:14. | |
goals to one. In Florida, the West Indies have won | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
the most remarkable match of 2020 cricket with Dwayne Rather taking | :19:20. | :19:24. | |
the wicket of captain MS Tony on the final ball. India needed to to win | :19:25. | :19:31. | |
and one to force a super over. They had piled on the attack. In the | :19:32. | :19:38. | |
first of 2T20 into an -- International is added venue. | :19:39. | :19:49. | |
India lost by a single run. Elsewhere in cricket, new South | :19:50. | :20:01. | |
Africa -- South Africa are 283 for three against New Zealand. The top | :20:02. | :20:11. | |

best-of-5 series against Pakistan after a 4- wicket win at Lord's. A | :20:18. | :20:23. | |
big score from Joe Root help the host toward their target of 252. | :20:24. | :20:30. | |
Pakistan recovered from 2-3 with a century and an unbeaten | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
half-century. Game three is at Trent Bridge in Nottingham on Tuesday. | :20:37. | :20:40. | |
The world number one Novak Djokovic admitted that he is not 100% fit as | :20:41. | :20:46. | |
he prepares to defend his US open title on Monday. He has been | :20:47. | :20:50. | |
struggling with a wrist injury which went in first round loss at the | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
Olympics and forced him to miss the Cincinnati Masters. He now knows it | :20:55. | :20:58. | |
is healing and he's delighted to be back on the big stage. Hopefully, | :20:59. | :21:06. | |
physically as well I will be enabled to perform my best. At the moment, I | :21:07. | :21:13. | |
know that there is a little room still for me to get better | :21:14. | :21:17. | |
physically and hopefully that will be the case in the next couple of | :21:18. | :21:22. | |
days. And then when the tournament starts, all the doors are open. You | :21:23. | :21:29. | |
can catch up with all the sport on our website. That is all from me for | :21:30. | :21:31. | |
now. A Nasa spacecraft has | :21:32. | :21:34. | |

on board - and Nasa are expected to release those images | :21:45. | :21:47. | |
in the next few days. Jonathan Amos, who told | :21:48. | :21:53. | |
us what we can expect. We have never sent a probe close to | :21:54. | :22:11. | |
Jupiter, this close to Jupiter during his operational phase. It | :22:12. | :22:15. | |
will gather lots of high-resolution images and we have never had that at | :22:16. | :22:20. | |
Jupiter. We are expecting something bridges rectangular. The camera was | :22:21. | :22:25. | |
not switched on back in July when the probe arrived. The engineers | :22:26. | :22:28. | |
didn't want the bother and convocation of having to take pretty | :22:29. | :22:33. | |

expecting for Nasa to release some remarkable images. | :22:43. | :22:44. |
