Hello and welcome
to World News Today. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:04 | |
The United Nations says the first
ship carrying aid to | 0:01:04 | 0:01:07 | |
a rebel-held port has arrived,
after the Saudi-led coalition eased | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
a blockade that's lasted
nearly three weeks. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
The World Food Programme says | 0:01:11 | 0:01:12 | |
the vessel docked at Saleef,
loaded with 25-thousand tonnes | 0:01:12 | 0:01:14 | |
of desperately-needed wheat. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:20 | |
Saleef is about 70 km north
of Hodeida which has been the main | 0:01:20 | 0:01:23 | |
conduit for UN-supervised deliveries
of food and medicine. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:29 | |
But what's thought to be
a commercial ship has | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
arrived in Hudaydah,
raising hopes that shipping | 0:01:31 | 0:01:32 | |
could resume to the port,
seen as vital to UN efforts | 0:01:32 | 0:01:35 | |
as it is closest to the majority
of people in need. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:39 | |
A UN plane carrying
desperately needed vaccines | 0:01:39 | 0:01:42 | |
landed in the rebel-held Yemeni
capital Sanaa on Saturday. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:44 | |
Coalition forces had partly
lifted the blockade, | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
after warnings that thousands
of people could die. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:48 | |
The UN child agency
welcomed the reopening | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
of the airport to aid flights. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:56 | |
It allowed us to send in the first
humanitarian convoy, 1.9 million | 0:02:06 | 0:02:12 | |
doses of vaccines, which are
urgently needed. For a planned | 0:02:12 | 0:02:16 | |
campaign to vaccinate 600,000
children, across Yemen. Vaccinate | 0:02:16 | 0:02:22 | |
them against diphtheria, meningitis,
whooping cough, pneumonia and | 0:02:22 | 0:02:30 | |
tuberculosis. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
Stephen Anderson is the Director
of the World Food Programme | 0:02:33 | 0:02:36 | |
in Yemen, speaking from the capital
Sanaa, he confirmed their ship | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
was waiting to unload. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
The ship just arrived in a port
which is just due north of the port | 0:02:42 | 0:02:51 | |
of Hodeida on the red Sea in Yemen,
and it has sufficient food for 1.8 | 0:02:51 | 0:02:58 | |
million Yemenis for one month,
Yemenis on the brink of starvation, | 0:02:58 | 0:03:05 | |
which is an extremely important
development for us. Talking about 20 | 0:03:05 | 0:03:10 | |
million people in Yemen needing
urgent assistance, it is such an | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
extraordinary figure, isn't it, tell
us what life is like for people? | 0:03:14 | 0:03:21 | |
Most of the civil servants, for over
a year, have not received their | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
salaries. We have two thirds of the
population who does not know where | 0:03:24 | 0:03:31 | |
their next meal is going to come
from. And we are trying to target | 0:03:31 | 0:03:34 | |
the most urgent among them, around 7
million, and of course, with onset, | 0:03:34 | 0:03:43 | |
recent onset of the blockade, and
the restrictions at all this, all | 0:03:43 | 0:03:52 | |
the prices went up, prices of food
and fuel and basic necessities. This | 0:03:52 | 0:03:59 | |
really impacts children, women,
elderly, the most. So the country is | 0:03:59 | 0:04:06 | |
really in freefall. How difficult
has it been for your ship to get to | 0:04:06 | 0:04:12 | |
the position where it is now? It has
been extremely difficult, the | 0:04:12 | 0:04:18 | |
blockade was announce on the 5th of
November, it actually arrived off | 0:04:18 | 0:04:25 | |
the coast on the 11th of November,
and it has been waiting, we have | 0:04:25 | 0:04:30 | |
kept it waiting, it has been
waiting. We need that food is | 0:04:30 | 0:04:37 | |
desperately for northern Yemen, the
people who are, as I said, on the | 0:04:37 | 0:04:41 | |
brink of starvation, and so we
persevered, and we are extremely | 0:04:41 | 0:04:47 | |
pleased to see that we finally got
permission last night. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:53 | |
Thousands of people have been
evacuated from the area around | 0:04:53 | 0:04:55 | |
Bali's Mount Agung which has been
spewing out ash and steam | 0:04:55 | 0:04:58 | |
for the second time in a week. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:00 | |
There are fears of a full scale
eruption | 0:05:00 | 0:05:02 | |
for the first time since 1963 | 0:05:02 | 0:05:06 | |
when about 1,500 people were killed. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:08 | |
Indonesia has issued its most
serious warning for aircraft, | 0:05:08 | 0:05:10 | |
and many tourists have
been left stranded. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:17 | |
Tiffany Wertheimer reports. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:23 | |
VOICEOVER: The people of Indonesia
are used to sites like these, the | 0:05:23 | 0:05:27 | |
mountain is for the second time this
week 's UN black ash high into the | 0:05:27 | 0:05:31 | |
sky. Balkan knowledges to have
detected molten rock close to the | 0:05:31 | 0:05:36 | |
surface, which means a powerful
eruption could be imminent. Mount | 0:05:36 | 0:05:42 | |
Agun S been declared a danger zone,
and everyone within the seven and a | 0:05:42 | 0:05:48 | |
half alarm at radius has been
evacuated. -- Volcanologist. We must | 0:05:48 | 0:06:00 | |
exercise caution for the possibility
of a strong explosive eruption. It | 0:06:00 | 0:06:04 | |
is this the ash spewing six hours
and metres into the sky which | 0:06:04 | 0:06:10 | |
presents the greatest danger to
human life, within it, sharp | 0:06:10 | 0:06:14 | |
fragments of glass, crystal and
rock. Authorities are handing out | 0:06:14 | 0:06:19 | |
masks to everyone in its path.
25,000 people have fled to | 0:06:19 | 0:06:24 | |
evacuation centres but they are
struggling to cope. In September, | 0:06:24 | 0:06:30 | |
140,000 people fled when Mount Agung
first started rumbling, many have | 0:06:30 | 0:06:39 | |
never left shelters, too frightened
to return home. On the ground, the | 0:06:39 | 0:06:43 | |
alert status is three out of four,
and authorities say that the island | 0:06:43 | 0:06:47 | |
is safe. The local residents are
still getting worried about their | 0:06:47 | 0:06:53 | |
daily business. Still cleaning up
the ash, to make the place | 0:06:53 | 0:06:57 | |
presentable. Bali is a major tourist
destination and results are still | 0:06:57 | 0:07:07 | |
open although many flights have been
cancelled or diverted. However, the | 0:07:07 | 0:07:13 | |
ash cloud is drifting east, towards
the island of Lompoc, and it's | 0:07:13 | 0:07:21 | |
airport has been closed. We are
trying to find out how to get out. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:26 | |
Indonesia is home to more than 130
active volcanoes, and sits on the | 0:07:26 | 0:07:31 | |
Pacific ring of fire, where there is
frequent seismic and volcanic | 0:07:31 | 0:07:35 | |
activity, Mount Agung is the most
sacred mountain in meat back Bali | 0:07:35 | 0:07:39 | |
and the last interrupted was 1963,
1500 people died. -- the most sacred | 0:07:39 | 0:07:46 | |
mountain in Bali. This time around,
no one is taking any chances. | 0:07:46 | 0:07:54 | |
Let's take a look at some of
the other stories making the news. | 0:07:54 | 0:08:01 | |
At least 23 civilians are reported | 0:08:01 | 0:08:02 | |
killed in the latest Syrian
government attacks | 0:08:02 | 0:08:04 | |
on a rebel-held enclave
on the outskirts of Damascus. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:06 | |
Activists say towns
in the Eastern Ghouta district have | 0:08:06 | 0:08:08 | |
been subjected to air strikes
and artillery fire. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:10 | |
The UN says after years of siege,
conditions are dire | 0:08:10 | 0:08:12 | |
for the 400,000 people
living in the enclave. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:19 | |
Officials in China say two people
have been killed and more | 0:08:19 | 0:08:21 | |
than thirty injured in a big
explosion at a factory in the port | 0:08:21 | 0:08:24 | |
city of Ningbo, south of Shanghai. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
Windows more than a kilometre
away were reportedly | 0:08:26 | 0:08:28 | |
shattered by the blast. | 0:08:28 | 0:08:29 | |
-- 30. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:30 | |
Police say the cause is unclear. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:34 | |
Cambodia's Prime Minister, Hun Sen,
has asked to shut down one | 0:08:34 | 0:08:36 | |
of the country's main
human rights groups. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
The NGO founder is an opposition
leader who is now in jail. | 0:08:38 | 0:08:41 | |
Earlier this month the Supreme Court
dissolved the main opposition party. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:44 | |
This means Mr Hun Sen will run
potentially unopposed | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
in next year's election. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:55 | |
More details are emerging
about the mosque attack | 0:08:55 | 0:08:58 | |
in Egypt on Friday, | 0:08:58 | 0:08:59 | |
the worst the country has
suffered in recent memory. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:03 | |
Three hundred worshippers, including
dozens of children, were killed. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:05 | |
As our Middle East correspondent
Orla Guerin reports, | 0:09:05 | 0:09:07 | |
local people are asking what more
can be done in the fight | 0:09:07 | 0:09:10 | |
against extremists in Sinai. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:11 | |
Her report contains some
distressing images. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:18 | |
Trying to bring comfort
after an attack that has horrified | 0:09:18 | 0:09:20 | |
Egypt and caused shock
around the world. | 0:09:20 | 0:09:22 | |
Among the survivors, the imam,
Mohammed Abdul Fatah. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:24 | |
He was leading the prayers
when terror came to the mosque. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:27 | |
As soon as people heard firing
they started to run, he said. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:29 | |
Some climbed onto the pulpit. | 0:09:29 | 0:09:31 | |
They were piled
on top of each other. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:33 | |
The attackers were shooting
at anyone breathing. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:43 | |
My friends lost their families, | 0:09:43 | 0:09:44 | |
lost their cousins and brothers, | 0:09:44 | 0:09:45 | |
some of them lost their sons. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:55 | |
This Sinai journalist
is from Bir al-Abed, | 0:09:55 | 0:09:56 | |
where the attack took place. | 0:09:56 | 0:09:57 | |
He says it's a turning
point for local tribes, | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
who have resolved to hunt
the militants themselves. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:02 | |
They had a meeting of their chiefs. | 0:10:02 | 0:10:07 | |
The tribe members yesterday, almost
400 people were in the meeting. | 0:10:07 | 0:10:09 | |
And they decided to carry arms. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:19 | |
And here, in a propaganda
video, the main suspects, | 0:10:19 | 0:10:22 | |
the Egyptian branch of IS,
which has found fertile ground | 0:10:22 | 0:10:24 | |
among the desert sands
and neglect in Sinai. | 0:10:24 | 0:10:33 | |
Now it has real money, resources, | 0:10:33 | 0:10:36 | |
weapons and recruits. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:37 | |
Sadly and tragically,
the Egyptian government has | 0:10:37 | 0:10:38 | |
basically used only military means
against the Isis | 0:10:38 | 0:10:40 | |
branch in North Sinai. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:44 | |
What you need | 0:10:44 | 0:10:49 | |
is to dislodge Isis from the social,
economical and political grievances | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
that exist in Sinai. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:53 | |
Experts say the Egyptian army has
been relying only on military might | 0:10:53 | 0:10:56 | |
to try to defeat IS in Sinai. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:57 | |
But now, more than ever,
it needs a new battle plan. | 0:10:57 | 0:11:00 | |
Orla Guerin, BBC News, Cairo. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:10 | |
The man who mediated Robert Mugabe's
resignation with the military has | 0:11:19 | 0:11:21 | |
said the former president
of Zimbabwe will continue to play | 0:11:21 | 0:11:24 | |
an active role in politics,
albeit in an advisory capacity. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:26 | |
Father Fidelis Mukonori, | 0:11:26 | 0:11:27 | |
a close friend of Mr Mugabe attended
the meeting with the army | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
generals last week. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:31 | |
He says the former leader wasn't
offered a deal to resign, | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
but decided to step down
for the good of the country. | 0:11:34 | 0:11:36 | |
He spoke to the BBC's
Richard Galpin. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:46 | |
Outside the capital, Harare,
a celebration of the first mass | 0:11:51 | 0:11:54 | |
in what is a new era for Zimbabwe. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:58 | |
The end of the rule
of Robert Mugabe, unleashing | 0:11:58 | 0:12:00 | |
a sense of freedom not felt
for decades here. | 0:12:00 | 0:12:03 | |
And the Jesuit priest
conducting the service, | 0:12:03 | 0:12:04 | |
Father Fidelis Mukonori,
is the man who brought it all about, | 0:12:04 | 0:12:07 | |
he is close to Robert Mugabe
and acted as a mediator. | 0:12:07 | 0:12:17 | |
Having played such a crucial role
in the transfer of power, | 0:12:19 | 0:12:29 | |
what then can Father Fidelis reveal
about the deals done to persuade | 0:12:30 | 0:12:33 | |
Robert Mugabe to stand down and how
the former president is reacting | 0:12:33 | 0:12:36 | |
to losing control of the country? | 0:12:36 | 0:12:38 | |
In his office, Father Fidelis said | 0:12:38 | 0:12:48 | |
that Mr Mugabe's decision to resign
was the best thing he had ever done. | 0:12:49 | 0:12:58 | |
He also said Mugabe will still
play an active role. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:01 | |
I don't know how you do it
in the rest of the world | 0:13:01 | 0:13:04 | |
but in the African world,
senior citizens | 0:13:04 | 0:13:06 | |
are there for advice. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:07 | |
In his office, Father Fidelis said | 0:13:07 | 0:13:08 | |
that Mr Mugabe's decision to resign
was the best thing he had ever done. | 0:13:08 | 0:13:11 | |
He also said Mugabe will still
play an active role. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:14 | |
I don't know how you do it
in the rest of the world | 0:13:14 | 0:13:17 | |
but in the African world,
senior citizens | 0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | |
are there for advice. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:20 | |
But will people go to him
for advice, for example, | 0:13:20 | 0:13:22 | |
the new president? | 0:13:22 | 0:13:23 | |
The new president said, he is my
mentor, he is my father, my leader. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:27 | |
When he is my father,
my leader, my mentor, | 0:13:27 | 0:13:29 | |
as he said, I don't think so. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:30 | |
You played a key role as the main
mediator to persuade | 0:13:30 | 0:13:33 | |
Robert Mugabe to stand down; | 0:13:33 | 0:13:34 | |
what was the deal which did persuade
him to go, | 0:13:34 | 0:13:37 | |
what was he given,
what has he been offered? | 0:13:37 | 0:13:39 | |
We did not offer him anything. | 0:13:39 | 0:13:40 | |
You are asking a direct
question for him to resign, | 0:13:40 | 0:13:43 | |
he was not offered anything, | 0:13:43 | 0:13:45 | |
he resigned for
the good of Zimbabwe. | 0:13:45 | 0:13:55 | |
There are reports that he has been
offered millions of dollars, | 0:14:06 | 0:14:09 | |
that he will have immunity
from prosecution, that all his | 0:14:09 | 0:14:11 | |
businesses will be left untouched. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:12 | |
Is that correct? | 0:14:12 | 0:14:13 | |
What I have read in
the newspapers about immunity... | 0:14:13 | 0:14:15 | |
That he will be looked after,
like any other head of state. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:18 | |
That is what I have
read in the newspapers. | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
How confident are you that the new
president | 0:14:20 | 0:14:22 | |
will pursue a democratic path | 0:14:22 | 0:14:24 | |
rather than reverting to a more
autocratic presidency, | 0:14:24 | 0:14:25 | |
like that of Robert Mugabe? | 0:14:25 | 0:14:27 | |
He has said so. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:28 | |
That he will be a democrat?
Yes. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |
And you believe him? | 0:14:31 | 0:14:34 | |
Well, I do, | 0:14:34 | 0:14:40 | |
after 50 years of active life
as a soldier and as a politician, | 0:14:40 | 0:14:44 | |
he knows what it means, | 0:14:44 | 0:14:51 | |
he knows that democracy is crucial. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:55 | |
At the moment, this remains
a honeymoon period for Zimbabwe, | 0:14:55 | 0:14:57 | |
people here determined to believe
real change has come, | 0:14:57 | 0:14:59 | |
but that has yet to be proven. | 0:14:59 | 0:15:09 | |

which is part of the UK. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:22 | |
The government in the south doesn't
want to see a new physical | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
border with the north. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:26 | |
Our political correspondent
Chris Mason explains. | 0:17:26 | 0:17:28 | |
Could this be the 310-mile
sticking point | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
that stops the Brexit
talks moving on? | 0:17:31 | 0:17:32 | |
The border between Northern
Ireland and the Republic, | 0:17:32 | 0:17:34 | |
what will soon be the frontier
between the UK and the EU. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:37 | |
Ireland insists it must remain open,
and almost invisible after Brexit, | 0:17:37 | 0:17:40 | |
or it could block the negotiations
progressing to discuss trade. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:42 | |
But the Government says until there
is a discussion about the future, | 0:17:42 | 0:17:45 | |
the border issue can't be resolved. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:55 | |
We can't get a final answer
to the Irish question until we get | 0:17:58 | 0:18:01 | |
an idea of the end state, | 0:18:01 | 0:18:02 | |
and until we get into discussions
with the EU on the end state, | 0:18:02 | 0:18:05 | |
that will be very difficult. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:15 | |
So the quicker we can do that,
the better, and we're | 0:18:15 | 0:18:17 | |
still in the position where the EU
doesn't want to do that. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:20 | |
And we're getting close now to 2018,
when we will be talking | 0:18:20 | 0:18:23 | |
about next year when we leave
the European Union. | 0:18:23 | 0:18:25 | |
There's long been irritation
in government here that the EU | 0:18:25 | 0:18:28 | |
won't let talks progress
until sufficient progress has been | 0:18:28 | 0:18:30 | |
made on money, citizens' rights
and the Irish border. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:32 | |
Both London and Dublin agree
that they don't want to see | 0:18:32 | 0:18:35 | |
the return of a hard border,
but neither side has yet publicly | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
suggested a solution which both
would be happy with. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
The Government wants the UK to leave
what's known as the single market | 0:18:40 | 0:18:43 | |
and the customs union after Brexit. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:48 | |
Meaning, in broad terms, | 0:18:48 | 0:18:54 | |
our economy and the EU economy | 0:18:54 | 0:18:55 | |
would be governed
by different rules. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
Some say that means it'll be
impossible not to have a more | 0:18:57 | 0:19:00 | |
obvious border, and so... | 0:19:00 | 0:19:05 | |
The way to stay the same
on the island of Ireland, | 0:19:05 | 0:19:08 | |
as it is today, post-Brexit
is for at least the UK to take | 0:19:08 | 0:19:11 | |
their red line off the table. | 0:19:11 | 0:19:12 | |
But to stay in the customs union
and single market gives us | 0:19:12 | 0:19:15 | |
what we have today, | 0:19:15 | 0:19:25 | |
an invisible border, seamless trade, | 0:19:26 | 0:19:27 | |
and it also will build and help us
keep those relationships. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:30 | |
Ministers here though insist
that will not happen. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:32 | |
Labour says the Government needs
to be willing to be more flexible. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:35 | |
What this Government has done is it
has ruled out remaining a member | 0:19:35 | 0:19:38 | |
of the single market or a member
of the customs union. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:40 | |
That is what they have said very
clearly, that they are going | 0:19:40 | 0:19:43 | |
to leave both of those institutions. | 0:19:43 | 0:19:45 | |
We have not ruled
those off the table. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:47 | |
We've said they are still options. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:52 | |
Christmas is getting closer, | 0:19:52 | 0:19:55 | |
but next month's crunch EU
Summit is closer still. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:57 | |
This is a delicate operation. | 0:19:57 | 0:20:04 | |
All sides agree a unique solution
is needed for the Irish border. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
But they agree too
that pulling that off | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
is an incredibly tricky manoeuvre. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:10 | |

Here in Britain, police
could be given the power | 0:20:33 | 0:20:36 | |
to crack down on the illegal use
of drones, | 0:20:36 | 0:20:38 | |
as part of proposed new legislation. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
Around the world there have been
concerns about drones | 0:20:40 | 0:20:42 | |
flying near airports,
and being used for smuggling | 0:20:42 | 0:20:44 | |
and even terrorism. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:45 | |
Joe Lynam reports. | 0:20:45 | 0:20:46 | |
They could be one of the most
coveted presents this Christmas. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:48 | |
Prices have come down and you can do
a lot more with them. | 0:20:48 | 0:20:52 | |
This potential customer says
he would use one for aerial | 0:20:52 | 0:20:54 | |
surveys and research. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:55 | |
But he knows there needs
to be more controls. | 0:20:55 | 0:20:57 | |
It's all for safety, isn't it? | 0:20:57 | 0:20:59 | |
We don't want drones crashing
into planes and things like that. | 0:20:59 | 0:21:01 | |
Safety concerns surrounding drones
were highlighted in July, | 0:21:01 | 0:21:03 | |
when Gatwick Airport had to close
when a drone was flown under | 0:21:03 | 0:21:06 | |
a plane about to land. | 0:21:06 | 0:21:07 | |
There have been near misses
at Leeds Bradford, | 0:21:07 | 0:21:09 | |
Cork and Manchester
airports since 2015. | 0:21:09 | 0:21:11 | |
And to prevent drones getting too
close, | 0:21:11 | 0:21:12 | |
the proposed Drone Bill | 0:21:12 | 0:21:13 | |
could mean that owners of drones
weighing more than 250g | 0:21:13 | 0:21:16 | |
will need to register and do a test. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:21 | |
They will be banned
from flying near airports, | 0:21:21 | 0:21:24 | |
or higher than 120
metres, or 400 feet. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:34 | |
And police will get new powers
to seize unmanned aerial vehicles. | 0:21:34 | 0:21:36 | |
But drones have a growing list
of useful applications. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:39 | |
This prototype can fly into water
and propel itself back out. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:41 | |
These drones can be used
on oil rigs to fix cables | 0:21:41 | 0:21:44 | |
in treacherous conditions. | 0:21:44 | 0:21:45 | |
And they are the types of uses
that the Aviation Minister | 0:21:45 | 0:21:48 | |
wants to encourage. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:50 | |
We've looked at the drones
today which can help | 0:21:50 | 0:21:52 | |
in the construction industry,
in the mining industry, | 0:21:52 | 0:22:02 | |
an offshore oil rigs. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:08 | |
And what's really exciting
is that they can do the jobs that | 0:22:08 | 0:22:11 | |
actually put people at risk,
so hopefully it will help | 0:22:11 | 0:22:14 | |
with safety as well. | 0:22:14 | 0:22:15 | |
With the rising popularity of drones
comes the issue of potential | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
misuse by the public. | 0:22:17 | 0:22:18 | |
This legislation could mean that
new users won't be able to simply | 0:22:18 | 0:22:21 | |
take it out of the box and start
flying it straightaway. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:24 | |

Top of the league Barcelona | 0:22:36 | 0:22:37 | |
were denied a penalty in the first
half of their match | 0:22:37 | 0:22:40 | |
against Valencia. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:41 | |
Replays appeared to show the ball
from a Lionel Messi shot | 0:22:41 | 0:22:44 | |
that was fumbled by Neto had clearly
crossed the line but with goal line | 0:22:44 | 0:22:47 | |
technology not in use
the goal wasn't awarded. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:49 | |
Rodrigo then added insult to injury
with a goal on the hour | 0:22:49 | 0:22:52 | |
mark that sees Valencia ahead
and if it stays that way | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
would narrow the gap
at the top to just one point. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:57 | |
Elsewhere 5th-placed Sevilla
continued their habit | 0:22:57 | 0:22:58 | |
of coming from behind, | 0:22:58 | 0:22:59 | |

Pep Guardiola's side
equalled the club record, | 0:23:26 | 0:23:28 | |
set in 2015, by securing an 11th
successive Premier League victory, | 0:23:28 | 0:23:31 | |
despite falling behind
through a Nicolas Otamendi own goal. | 0:23:31 | 0:23:33 | |
Raheem Sterling scored the winner
with six minutes remaining | 0:23:33 | 0:23:35 | |
which added to the penalty converted
by Sergio Aguero shortly | 0:23:35 | 0:23:38 | |
after the half time interval. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:39 | |
It was the first time City have come
from behind at half-time to win | 0:23:39 | 0:23:42 | |
a Premier League away match
since April 1995. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:46 | |
The Premier League is so tough,
especially now winter has come. They | 0:23:52 | 0:23:58 | |
are so aggressive. So strong, but we
are so happy for the way we have won | 0:23:58 | 0:24:07 | |
this. | 0:24:07 | 0:24:10 | |
