0:01:05 > 0:01:09Hello and welcome to World News Today.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12More than 30 people are missing after a collision between an oil
0:01:12 > 0:01:15tanker and a cargo ship off the east coast of China.
0:01:15 > 0:01:19It's the worst disaster of its kind for many years.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22The tanker remains on fire and 136,000 barrels of oil
0:01:22 > 0:01:24worth around $60 million - are either burning or
0:01:24 > 0:01:25spilling into the sea.
0:01:25 > 0:01:29Andy Moore reports:
0:01:29 > 0:01:33Still burning fiercely many hours after the original collision,
0:01:33 > 0:01:36and still no confirmed news about the fate of its 32 crew.
0:01:36 > 0:01:4130 were Iranian and two were from Bangladesh.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44The tanker is more than 270 metres long and was carrying just under
0:01:44 > 0:01:541 million barrels of oil.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59If the entire cargo ends up the ocean, that will be
0:01:59 > 0:02:01ten oil spills in the world ever.
0:02:01 > 0:02:06It has a huge potential for environmental damage.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09The Panamanian-registered tanker set off from the Persian Gulf
0:02:09 > 0:02:10on its journey to South Korea.
0:02:10 > 0:02:13It sailed through the Malacca Strait before colliding with a Chinese
0:02:13 > 0:02:16freight ship in the East China Sea about 160 nautical miles off
0:02:16 > 0:02:22the port city of Shanghai.
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Major oil spills from tankers are becoming less common.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27One of the most serious in recent years was the sinking
0:02:27 > 0:02:29of the Prestige off the coast of Spain in 2002.
0:02:29 > 0:02:32More than 60,000 tonnes of oil came ashore over a long

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Specialist clean-up vessels have been sent to the scene
0:02:36 > 0:02:40of the tanker fire.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42Chinese authorities have confirmed there is an oil slick,
0:02:42 > 0:02:44but they cannot confirm how big it is.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50An explosion in Syria's northwestern city of Idlib has
0:02:50 > 0:02:56killed at least 18 people, according to a monitoring group.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58Another 10 people were injured in the attack,
0:02:58 > 0:03:00the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02The explosion was said to have targeted the headquarters
0:03:02 > 0:03:07of an opposition faction.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10Idlib province is the last remaining rebel stronghold in Syria.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12I can speak now on the latest situation in Syria
0:03:12 > 0:03:13with Joshua Landis.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16He is the Director of the Centre for Middle East Studies
0:03:16 > 0:03:18at the University of Oklahoma and author of the blog
0:03:18 > 0:03:20Syria Comment.
0:03:20 > 0:03:26He joins me now from Italy. What do you make of what is going on in the
0:03:26 > 0:03:36Idlib area?Well, Idlib is in the north along the Turkish border. The
0:03:36 > 0:03:43Russians and Americans negotiated three big areas of deconfliction
0:03:43 > 0:03:46zones, as they called it, where they would agree to stop fighting while
0:03:46 > 0:03:50the battle with Isis was being waged. But the territorial battle
0:03:50 > 0:03:54against crisis has come to an end now, says Syria has begun moving its
0:03:54 > 0:04:01units back towards the three major areas, one of which is Idlib and is
0:04:01 > 0:04:07still held by rebels. In Syria, the Assad government has every intention
0:04:07 > 0:04:12to take back these regions. So we are going to see a lot of fighting,
0:04:12 > 0:04:19I fear, in the next weeks.Thank you for stopping those phones for us!
0:04:19 > 0:04:26That is one of the areas. Eastern Ghouta is another. Obviously, this
0:04:26 > 0:04:30does go against the general narrative we have seen in Syria.
0:04:30 > 0:04:36Yes, it does. The Syrian government, Assad has repeated over and over
0:04:36 > 0:04:40again that he intends to take back all of Syria. The United States is
0:04:40 > 0:04:45of course occupying almost 30% in the north. It has helped to
0:04:45 > 0:04:49encourage set up a government there. But there are still big rebel
0:04:49 > 0:04:55enclaves. That is where we will see a lot of fighting. They had been
0:04:55 > 0:04:58under deconfliction zones, but those are collapsing, so we are going to
0:04:58 > 0:05:03see more fighting in those regions. And in Idlib, there are about 2
0:05:03 > 0:05:07million people, many of the rebels have fled to this area. Turkey does
0:05:07 > 0:05:12not want them to be driven inside Turkey. It has moved troops into the
0:05:12 > 0:05:16region. Syria, of course, wants to get rid of those people. There is a
0:05:16 > 0:05:22big number of Al-Qaeda people there as well. So this is going to become
0:05:22 > 0:05:26an increasingly fraught battle ground.We have seen a lot of focus
0:05:26 > 0:05:35on the vulnerable, the children especially.As we said, there are
0:05:35 > 0:05:38over 2 million refugees, desperately poor, and this is turning into a
0:05:38 > 0:05:41major battle ground, with bombing from the regime. The regime is
0:05:41 > 0:05:46exhausted. It is using air power rather than men on the ground, which
0:05:46 > 0:05:51is very expensive for them, to roll them back. That means lots of
0:05:51 > 0:05:56casualties and grisly scenes.Joshua Landis, thanks for your time.
0:05:56 > 0:06:01Former Egyptian Prime Minister Ahmed Shafik has said
0:06:01 > 0:06:04he will not run in this year's presidential election.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07The statement was published on his Twitter page.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09Mr Shafik had previously announced his intention to run
0:06:09 > 0:06:12and he was seen as the main rival to President Sisi.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14The BBC's Hanan Razek has more from Cairo.
0:06:14 > 0:06:16So today, Shafik announced through his Twitter page
0:06:16 > 0:06:21that he is no longer running for the upcoming election
0:06:21 > 0:06:25which is expected around April or May this year.
0:06:25 > 0:06:30In his statement, he said that he realised he is not the ideal
0:06:30 > 0:06:32candidate to lead the country's affairs in the coming period.
0:06:32 > 0:06:35For this reason, he decided not to run.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39Shafik was himself a presidential candidate back in 2012
0:06:39 > 0:06:42and he lost by a narrow margin to the Muslim Brotherhood candidate
0:06:42 > 0:06:46back then, Mohammed Morsi.
0:06:46 > 0:06:50He got almost 49% of the vote.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53After that, he left for the Emirates and did not come
0:06:53 > 0:06:56back until last month.
0:06:56 > 0:07:00Back in November, he announced that he would run for the presidency.
0:07:00 > 0:07:06Let's take a look at some of the other stories making the news.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09Police in Sweden say a 60-year-old man has died in an explosion outside
0:07:09 > 0:07:10an underground station in Stockholm.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12The incident happened at Varby Gard metro station
0:07:12 > 0:07:13in the south of the city.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15A woman nearby was also hurt.
0:07:15 > 0:07:17According to a police spokesman, an object exploded
0:07:17 > 0:07:18after it was picked up.
0:07:18 > 0:07:28The incident is not believed to be terrorism-related.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30President Macron of France has led tributes to the 16 people
0:07:30 > 0:07:33who were killed in Islamist attacks in Paris three years ago.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35Commemorations began at the offices in Paris
0:07:35 > 0:07:37of the satirical magazine, Charlie Hebdo, to remember the 12
0:07:37 > 0:07:40people who died when two gunmen burst into an editorial meeting.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Malaysia's long-serving former prime minister, Mahathir Mohamad,
0:07:42 > 0:07:44has been chosen once again as a candidate for the top
0:07:44 > 0:07:46job at the age of 92.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Mr Mahathir resigned as prime minister in 2003,
0:07:48 > 0:07:50but has been drawn back into politics because of his
0:07:50 > 0:07:56opposition to the current Prime Minister, Najib Razak.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58The BBC's China editor Carrie Gracie has resigned from her post,
0:07:58 > 0:08:03citing a lack of equal pay compared with male colleagues.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06In an open letter, Ms Gracie - who has been at the BBC
0:08:06 > 0:08:09for more than 30 years - accused the corporation
0:08:09 > 0:08:13of having a "secretive and illegal pay culture".
0:08:13 > 0:08:20She said the BBC was facing a "crisis" over the question
0:08:20 > 0:08:21of equal pay.
0:08:21 > 0:08:26With me is our Media Editor, Amol Rajan.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30Just to explain, Carrie Gracie is not leaving the BBC, she has just
0:08:30 > 0:08:34resigned from her post.She has indeed. She is one of the most
0:08:34 > 0:08:35respected international correspondence of her generation
0:08:35 > 0:08:39with over three decades at the BBC and as the China editor, one of the
0:08:39 > 0:08:44hardest posting in the world, a difficult post-war Britain. She is
0:08:44 > 0:08:48leaving her post as China editor rather than leaving the BBC. She is
0:08:48 > 0:08:52doing it because, in an explosive letter which is actually to licence
0:08:52 > 0:08:56fee payers, she says the BBC is failing to live up to its own values
0:08:56 > 0:08:59of trust and accountability and transparency when it comes to equal
0:08:59 > 0:09:02pay. The context for this is that last year, the BBC was forced
0:09:02 > 0:09:08against its will to reveal the pay of on-air talent who were paid over
0:09:08 > 0:09:11£150,000. That revealed not just that many men were paid a lot more
0:09:11 > 0:09:16than senior women at the BBC, but as Carrie Gracie sees it and many
0:09:16 > 0:09:19others have also argued, that there are some men getting paid more than
0:09:19 > 0:09:24women for doing the same sort of job. Her point is that there are
0:09:24 > 0:09:28other international creditors at the BBC who happen to be male who are
0:09:28 > 0:09:32getting paid more money -- international creditors. The BBC has
0:09:32 > 0:09:37offered Carrie Gracie more money. It has launched audits looking at the
0:09:37 > 0:09:39question of equal pay, but her central allegation is that the BBC
0:09:39 > 0:09:44doesn't take this issue seriously because if it did, she will be paid
0:09:44 > 0:09:48the same as others with the same role.She is also calling for
0:09:48 > 0:09:51transparency and talks about ethnic minority gaps and other gaps
0:09:51 > 0:09:55potentially. You are a senior editor. Would you be happy to have
0:09:55 > 0:09:59your pay published?Personally, I feel that the BBC should be as
0:09:59 > 0:10:03transparent as possible because it belongs to the public, so I would be
0:10:03 > 0:10:10happy for my pay to be in the public domain?Want to share it with us?As
0:10:10 > 0:10:16media editor, I get paid £133,000, so I did not qualify for the
0:10:16 > 0:10:24£150,000 list. I do other work which also takes me over £150,000. The BBC
0:10:24 > 0:10:27should be transparent. But in trying to report the subject, the thing I
0:10:27 > 0:10:32have come across is the immense anger that people at the BBC feel,
0:10:32 > 0:10:35especially senior women, about the fact that the BBC does not take this
0:10:35 > 0:10:40seriously. There are now 200 complainants, according to Carrie
0:10:40 > 0:10:43Gracie's letter, 200 people who have complained to the BBC because they
0:10:43 > 0:10:50feel that their pay is unjust. This is not about gender pay as a whole,
0:10:50 > 0:10:54it is the specific issue of whether women are paid less than men for
0:10:54 > 0:10:58doing the same job. And that one, Carrie Gracie says the BBC is
0:10:58 > 0:11:04failing.You have spoken to senior people at the BBC.They say they
0:11:04 > 0:11:09don't want to comment on individual cases. They have obviously had a
0:11:09 > 0:11:12difficult negotiation with Carrie Gracie. But they would say the BBC
0:11:12 > 0:11:16is doing a lot on this. Firstly, the BBC goes further than other
0:11:16 > 0:11:20organisations. They would say that Tony Hall is committed to this and
0:11:20 > 0:11:23that a lot has happened in the last few years under his leadership. And
0:11:23 > 0:11:26they do point to these different reports. I will not get technical,
0:11:26 > 0:11:32but there is an internal audit of pay. PwC have been brought in to
0:11:32 > 0:11:35look at pay across the organisation. There is also a report looking at
0:11:35 > 0:11:42on-air talent which is due to report in the next few weeks or months. The
0:11:42 > 0:11:45BBC is certainly doing a lot on this. That clearly is not enough for
0:11:45 > 0:11:50Carrie Gracie. And crucially, it is not enough for around 200 other
0:11:50 > 0:11:52people who have made formal complaint and some of whom may take
0:11:52 > 0:11:56legal action. That is where this gets nasty. It is on the front page
0:11:56 > 0:12:01of the Times tomorrow, and the BBC's reputation could be tarnished.Amol
0:12:01 > 0:12:09Rajan, thanks for being so open with us.Pleasure!
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Hollywood season is about to get under way with the 75th Golden
0:12:13 > 0:12:17Globes. It is the first major ceremony since Hollywood was hit by
0:12:17 > 0:12:21sexual harassment scandals. Michelle Williams stars in one nominated
0:12:21 > 0:12:23film, all the money in the world, which was reshot following
0:12:23 > 0:12:28allegations about Kevin Spacey, who had a major role in the movie. The
0:12:28 > 0:12:35BBC's James Cook has been speaking to her about the experience.
0:12:35 > 0:12:41It was the movie that never stopped shooting. You know, we went through
0:12:41 > 0:12:44a lot with the film and we realised that this thing that we loved and
0:12:44 > 0:12:49loved working on together was going to be for naught, and there were
0:12:49 > 0:12:56some sadness around that, more sadness around the allegations and
0:12:56 > 0:13:06the pain that has been caused. And then this phone call came, this
0:13:06 > 0:13:13late-breaking idea of how to save the film, rewrite the story, do the
0:13:13 > 0:13:22right thing, and I was exuberantly and immediately on board for it.I
0:13:22 > 0:13:26think for a lot of audiences, they have been disappointed, upset to
0:13:26 > 0:13:30watch some of their idols fall in terms of Kevin Spacey and others. As
0:13:30 > 0:13:35someone who works with him, how disappointed were you?That was one
0:13:35 > 0:13:41of the things I found most upsetting about being in a film that he was
0:13:41 > 0:13:45also in, is that films, because they are larger than life, they glorify
0:13:45 > 0:13:49people. I couldn't bear the thought of being in a movie that glorified
0:13:49 > 0:13:53somebody who had hurt people. In these ways. I didn't want anything
0:13:53 > 0:13:59to do with it. I wouldn't have gone to promote it. I wouldn't have
0:13:59 > 0:14:02talked about it, because I would have felt like it is not the right
0:14:02 > 0:14:07thing to do for those people that have been hurt. They don't need to
0:14:07 > 0:14:10be re-traumatised by seeing this movie come out and seeing big
0:14:10 > 0:14:13posters and flashy advertisements. It's not appropriate, so I didn't
0:14:13 > 0:14:19want any part of it.Is what is happening in Hollywood a permanent,
0:14:19 > 0:14:23significant change, do you think? There's no way of knowing. I can't
0:14:23 > 0:14:29tell the future, I can only tell you what I hope and what I know to be
0:14:29 > 0:14:34true, which is that I don't know a single person who hasn't taken this
0:14:34 > 0:14:41on as though it's another job. Everyone is working day and night to
0:14:41 > 0:14:46create the kind of change that will be permanent. Our hope is to hand
0:14:46 > 0:14:51our daughter is a different world.
0:14:51 > 0:14:57Stay with us on BBC World News, still to come...
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Big names struggle against lower league opposition in the third round
0:14:59 > 0:15:10of the FA Cup.
0:16:16 > 0:16:18This is BBC World News Today.
0:16:18 > 0:16:21The latest headlines:
0:16:21 > 0:16:24A tanker is on fire in the East Tennessee and spilling oil, the
0:16:24 > 0:16:29worst disaster of its kind to 32 years. An explosion in Syria's
0:16:29 > 0:16:34north-western city of Idlib has killed at least 18 people.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37The German Chancellor Angela Merkel has begun what may be her last
0:16:37 > 0:16:41chance to build a stable government coalition and end months
0:16:41 > 0:16:43of political stalemate following September's election.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45As she went into the first days of talks in Berlin,
0:16:45 > 0:16:48she said she was optimistic - but admitted there is still
0:16:48 > 0:16:49a lot of work ahead.
0:16:49 > 0:16:53This is the country's longest-ever period of coalition-building.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55For more on the talks, I am joined from Dresden
0:16:55 > 0:16:56by Ulrich Brueckner,
0:16:56 > 0:16:58a Political Analyst and Professor in European Studies
0:16:58 > 0:17:03at Stanford University.
0:17:03 > 0:17:07How critical are these talks? Germany is of course key to a stable
0:17:07 > 0:17:15Europe.People of course tend to use big words like crisis in a situation
0:17:15 > 0:17:20that has never happened in Germany before. But if we look at the
0:17:20 > 0:17:26situation in the country is in, no one is really very worried. People
0:17:26 > 0:17:31are surprised that we are in such a situation, but there are no signs of
0:17:31 > 0:17:38getting nervous or anxious. It is more like a form of irritation that
0:17:38 > 0:17:44it takes so long and it is hard to predict what the next steps will be.
0:17:44 > 0:17:50How much is the refugee and migrant questions still a key political
0:17:50 > 0:17:57issue?Well, it was an important one for the elections and the result we
0:17:57 > 0:18:06had, like AFP for the first time being represented in parliament,
0:18:06 > 0:18:09speaks for itself. But the number went down drastically, not because
0:18:09 > 0:18:16of the situation in Germany, but because of the responses from the
0:18:16 > 0:18:20countries on the migration route. It is therefore still be relevant in
0:18:20 > 0:18:23the room and there are a lot of discussions about this, but it is
0:18:23 > 0:18:27certainly not just a question for Germany. It can only be solved on a
0:18:27 > 0:18:31European level and therefore, we first have to get our act together
0:18:31 > 0:18:35and then convince the other European Union member states to find and
0:18:35 > 0:18:40integrate an immigration solution for all of us.About how much is the
0:18:40 > 0:18:43question of policy on refugees and taxation part of what will have to
0:18:43 > 0:18:52be negotiated now?As I said, we are not in the situation of crisis,
0:18:52 > 0:18:55neither on a political level, because the constitution forces that
0:18:55 > 0:18:59we will have a government no matter what. When we look at the migration
0:18:59 > 0:19:02numbers, it is not so much a question of how many people
0:19:02 > 0:19:06currently come to Germany, but the much longer lasting and more
0:19:06 > 0:19:08pressing question of how we can manage to integrate them
0:19:08 > 0:19:14successfully. This is not something that will be decided in the next
0:19:14 > 0:19:18elections or in the coming year, but it is more a question of a
0:19:18 > 0:19:26generation or two.Professor Ulrich Brueckner, thanks so much.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28Pressure also on the British Prime Minister, Theresa May -
0:19:28 > 0:19:30who's confirmed there'll be a cabinet reshuffle on Monday.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32The Labour opposition has called the planned
0:19:32 > 0:19:34reshuffle "little more than a desperate PR exercise."
0:19:34 > 0:19:37Here's our political correspondent, Eleanor Garnier.
0:19:37 > 0:19:42A new year, perhaps a fresh start after a torrid 2017
0:19:42 > 0:19:46in which Theresa May lost her majority in the general
0:19:46 > 0:19:51election, faced a rebellion from some of her own MPs,
0:19:51 > 0:19:54was forced to deal with Cabinet resignations and even had
0:19:54 > 0:19:56to sack her second-in-command.
0:19:56 > 0:20:00It means she starts the year with a reshuffle.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02Well, no prizes for guessing, Andrew, that
0:20:02 > 0:20:04obviously, Damian Green's departure before Christmas means
0:20:04 > 0:20:08some changes do have to be made.
0:20:08 > 0:20:12Speaking exclusively to the BBC, the Prime Minister has made clear
0:20:12 > 0:20:14that she wants her government to be about more than just Brexit,
0:20:14 > 0:20:23insisting she is in listening mode.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26One of the clear messages we got was that there are a number
0:20:26 > 0:20:28of areas in which people
0:20:28 > 0:20:29were concerned about what we were proposing.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32So just as we have looked at issues on school funding, tuition fees,
0:20:32 > 0:20:36on housing and we're taking forward approaches in relation to that,
0:20:36 > 0:20:40on this issue of foxhunting, what I can say is that there won't be
0:20:40 > 0:20:41a vote during this Parliament.
0:20:41 > 0:20:43And on the environment, plans for 50 million more trees,
0:20:43 > 0:20:49a push to win over new voters and those who've drifted away.
0:20:49 > 0:20:53But the new year has already brought in old problems,
0:20:53 > 0:20:55under pressure on rising train fares, and claims
0:20:55 > 0:21:00that this winter crisis is the toughest yet for the NHS.
0:21:00 > 0:21:03The NHS has actually been better prepared for this winter pressure
0:21:03 > 0:21:05than it has been before.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08You mentioned operations being postponed.
0:21:08 > 0:21:12That was part of the plan.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15Of course, we want to ensure that those operations can be reinstated
0:21:15 > 0:21:17as soon as possible, but it's about making sure that those
0:21:17 > 0:21:20who most urgently need care are able to get that treatment
0:21:20 > 0:21:22when they need it.
0:21:22 > 0:21:24Labour's blamed Government cuts for the problems in the NHS
0:21:24 > 0:21:26and warned the Prime Minister against promoting the Health
0:21:27 > 0:21:31Secretary in this week's reshuffle.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33She hasn't got a plan to get those people off
0:21:33 > 0:21:36the trolleys in corridors,
0:21:36 > 0:21:38those elderly people this freezing January,
0:21:38 > 0:21:39being treated in ambulances.
0:21:39 > 0:21:40She's got no plan for them.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43Her only plan, apparently, is to promote this Health Secretary.
0:21:43 > 0:21:46She should be demoting this Health Secretary.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49If she promotes this Health Secretary tomorrow,
0:21:49 > 0:21:55it is a betrayal of those 75,000 people in the back of ambulances.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57The Prime Minister said today she's not a quitter, and she'll want
0:21:57 > 0:22:00and need the best possible team around her to get her
0:22:00 > 0:22:03through what many predict will be a tough year ahead.
0:22:03 > 0:22:13Eleanor Garnier, BBC News, Westminster.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19Holders Arsenal have been knocked out of the English FA Cup by second

0:22:28 > 0:22:30the managerial reins at the Gunners in 1996 that they've been
0:22:30 > 0:22:31knocked out at this stage.
0:22:31 > 0:22:35The Frenchman was forced to watch the tie from the stands as he served
0:22:35 > 0:22:38the first of a three-match touchline ban handed down by the Football
0:22:38 > 0:22:44Association and he saw his side give away two penalties.
0:22:44 > 0:22:52It was very frustrating and unfortunately, it was a case on top
0:22:52 > 0:22:56of that to see the team lose because we played against a very good
0:22:56 > 0:23:05Nottingham Forest team who were sharp and focused. They were
0:23:05 > 0:23:06decisive and overall, our performance was not good enough
0:23:06 > 0:23:08today to win the game.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10No such problems for Arsenal's North London rivals
0:23:10 > 0:23:14Tottenham as Harry Kane scored twice in a 3-0 win over Wimbledon.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Jan Vertonghen claimed the last goal, with all of them coming

0:23:41 > 0:23:46going down 2-1 at Newport County.

0:24:26 > 0:24:36Real Madrid are currently at 2-2.
0:24:36 > 0:24:46Real started the match 17 points adrift of Barca.
0:24:46 > 0:24:48Let's move on to cricket now, where the fifth

0:24:52 > 0:24:54in Sydney with host Australia heading for a 4-0 Ashes victory.

0:25:14 > 0:25:22That is your sport for now.
