this is outside source. we begin in south africa where the speaker of the parliament has made a big announcement. i therefore determined that voting on the motion of no—confidence in the president on the 8th of august 2017 will be by secret ballot. we will explain why thatis secret ballot. we will explain why that is so important. after a fresh un sanctions over its recent missile tests, north korea has set back. we wa nt to tests, north korea has set back. we want to make it clear that the worsening situation on the korean peninsula as well as other nuclear issues caused by the united states. with less than 12 hours to go until people in kenya go to the polls, we will speak to our correspondent in nairobi about what is expected to be a tight race. we look at how old people in gabon are tackling poaching. and in sport, we will catch up with the latest from the

athletics world championships. welcome to outside source. north korea has reacted angrily to the new sanctions applied in it by the us. well, any statement on state television, the country has said that it television, the country has said thatitis television, the country has said that it is ready to teach the usb sevilla lesson with strategic force if it faces military action over its programme. it said it would retaliate thousands of times over against the us for the losers sanctions. it said that a violent infringement on its sovereignty was at stake. but north korea was represented at the summit in manila and the spokesman also commented on the situation. it is our nuclear

position if it to the world orjust the us? we want to make it clear that the worsening situation on the korean peninsula as well as other nuclear issues caused by the united states. we form we will never replace our nuclear and ballistics missiles programme on the negotiating table and will not budge one hinge on strengthening our nuclear armaments. that was the statement given in manila. one previous ambassador gave his assessment on the losers sanctions. i believe these are the toughest sanctions ever put on north korea and what is more significant is that china went along, they were pretty devastating, one thought of not cree's economy, coal, seafood, the foreign workers on oil, this could bite them and so, north korea so far, because china has put very

tepid sanctions on them, they might respond. i think there is the first possibility given the north korean reaction, a violent reaction to the sanctions, that maybe we are getting the message that their top ally, china, is not happy and perhaps it makes sense for them to go to the negotiating table. we do not know but it is a good sign that the sanctions are so strong and that china and russia supported them. that was bill richardson. you can see that phil interview on world news america later. the united states has been flying spy missions over the korean peninsula and our correspondent rupert wingfield hayes has been given exclusive action —— access to the military. a relic of the cold war and the last cold war frontier. just after dawn, i'm riding

the chase car as a us spy plane heads out on a classified mission. the pilot will climb to 70,000 feet, and from there, peer deep into north korea. our mission is to provide the capability for our leadership to see what's going on before anybody else. we're up there every single day to deter the north koreans from deciding one day they can get away with something. speaks in korean. from across the border tonight, fresh threats. north korean state tv warning the us it will pay 1000 times for its crime of imposing new economic sanctions on pyongyang. meeting in manila with china's foreign minister, the us secretary of state again called on pyongyang to return to the negotiating table. the best signal that north korea could give us that they're prepared to talk would be to stop these missile launches. here in south korea at the 51st fighter wing, they

continue to hope for the best, whilst preparing for the worst. everybody we've spoken to here agrees that another conflict on the korean peninsula would be an utter disaster for everybody. that hundreds of thousands of people would die. but they also say the best way of stopping it happening is to be ready. and that's why these guys practice and practice and practice — so that kim jong—un knows that if he tries to attack the south, there will be an overwhelming and immediate response. i hope that north korea calculates correctly and realises that. so obviously, everyone on this side, and i believe north korea does as well... no one wants war. everyone wants deterrents to work. should deterrents fail, though, we have to be ready to go. as these 8ns roll down the runway for another practice flight, they are just 48 miles from the north korean border. the same distance as london to brighton.

in south korea, the enemy is never far away. rupert wingfield hayes, bbc news, the osan air base, south korea. in less than 12 hours, kenyans go to the polls in a much anticipated general election. we will also be deciding who will become the country's next president between these two gentlemen. many predict a close race between incumbent uhuru kenyatta and the main opposition leader odinga. the bbc‘s saw the enda kenny is in the capital nairobi ahead of the vote. both men are involved in this race. 5000 observers have given their views about the preparedness of the

independent electoral and boundaries commission. they are raising concerns of the opposition parties, regarding the voter register and there are about 11,000 polling stations that do not have the 3g network, that means that results will have to be scanned and sent to the tallying centre. they are confident about the arrangements and preparedness for these elections. kenyatta has spoken to the nation in his capacity as the president as opposed to his position as the jubilee party leader. he had pulled the country, whoever wants to vote, they should vote for whomever they want. the candidate of their choice, then go home and speak to the neighbours, have a cup of tea and remember that we are all brothers and sisters. i spoke to the country's interior cabinet secretary, who outlined measures that the ministry has put in place in terms of security. 180,000 police

officers have been employed across the country, security has also been given to the independent electoral and boundaries committee officials as well as the returning officers. of course, the hot spot in this country have also been beefed up. the polls open at 6am kenyan time and close at 5pm kenyan time. we will monitor that for you. so for the elections have been peaceful, ten yea rs the elections have been peaceful, ten years ago that was not the case. in the west of the country there was bloody clashes following the dispute. one town is in the county and locals have been working together to ensure that the violence is not repeated. our correspondent has been you could tell us more. grateful piece witnessed by the elderly residents who witnessed much violence ten years ago. for many, the memories are fresh in their mind

but they are determined to prevent a repeat of the bloody clashes. the violence in 2007 started in this county, but now we are telling people, look out, we are geared towards peace. the peace forum is going around the country, creating awareness and making the residents own the peace. tensions on the streets are high. i have come to makejon streets are high. i have come to make jon who is streets are high. i have come to makejon who is confident that streets are high. i have come to make jon who is confident that the situation will remain peaceful. even though there is a problem, we cannot do any business and so i expect peace, i do fear anything. we will talk a lot about violence, otherwise i would have shut down my business a long time ago. i do not have a problem but whoever is elected. the reason that campaigns have been divisive and stalking political discomfort is that people fear repeat of what happened here ten yea rs repeat of what happened here ten years ago. although there has been

some problems in some parts, religious leaders have been spreading the message of peace and reconciliation. i want to emphasise that violence of the work of the devil and politicians have decided to serve the devil. during their campaigns they happen spreading hatred and evil. i am asking you to go forward and go home in peace. please pray that we have the peace that comes from god. but with the election promising to be a tight race, the stakes are high and the country remains in a mood of prayer. the polls open in less than 12 hours and we will keep you updated. let us have a look at some of the sport news because there have been some big events at the world athletic championships right here in london, where there were four gold medals.

let us speak to our correspondent... let us speak to our correspondent... let us speak to our correspondent... let us it can talk to others. great! iam very let us it can talk to others. great! i am very relieved you are still there because there has been a lot of news. bring us up to date. four finals on this opening day of competition, the 110 meter hurdles as just competition, the 110 meter hurdles asjust got off competition, the 110 meter hurdles as just got off a moment ago. and mcleod of jamaica, the as just got off a moment ago. and mcleod ofjamaica, the olympic champion is now the world champion. she beat russian competitor was the defending champion, running as a neutral champion. in the long jump, christine taylor qualified in the men's competition. jonathan edwards set the 1995 world record in gothenburg. the czech man won the hammer throw. the colombian reigning olympic triple jump champion,

that was a very difficult decision for him. we will look at how the british army has been enlisted to track down elephant poachers in west africa. new laws will be introduced giving people greater control over what happens to the online personal data. the government has said the legislation offers the right to be forgotten. our technology correspondent rory cellan—jones has more details about this story. your data, a valuable resource flowing around the world giving companies and governments all kinds of intimate details about how you live your life. now a new law is supposed to give us all more control. the law is an opportunity to keep up with the changing technology. companies will have more accountability and consumers will have more control.

the new law includes a right to be forgotten, making it easier to find out what data companies hold on you and get it a race. there will be an end to tick boxes on websites which often see consumers handing over data by default and the data watchdog will be able to find up to £70 million for companies, or 4% of the global turnover. the new law is almost entirely based on a major new european data protection regulation that comes in next may. it is designed to tackle the power of the giant firms which draw our information. we are now leaving a data trail wherever we go, turn on your mobile phone and you could be uploading your exercise details or even your dating preferences. get on public transport with a travel card and there will be a log of every journey that you make. and pay with a card in a shop or online and even more information about what you like and how you live will end up in the hands of big companies. it is social networks which now hold much of our most sensitive data.

in future it should be easier to wipe away things we would rather forget. though exactly how much power the new law gives individuals is not clear. i think it is a start, it puts a line in the sand certainly to say individuals, their personal data, it gives the sense of control and that is essential for trust and for the protection of a very fundamental right of privacy. whether or not it will achieve that objective is another thing. our data is in the hands of all kinds of companies, big and small. all of them have now got to get to grips with very complex new rules or face the threat of big fines. this is outside source live from the

bbc‘s newsroom. there has been a vote of no—confidence in president jacob zuma and that will be held by secret ballot. it is seen as a test of unity within the governing african national congress party. seniorfigures are african national congress party. senior figures are becoming increasingly critical of their figure. we will come to afghanistan where officials have reported that taliban sources and islamic state fighters have launched a joint attack on a village in which at least 50 civilians died, including children. this is where it has happened. the bbc‘s colleague has more details from kabul. the battle here in the north of afghanistan went on for 48 hours. according to the local governor, 52 men, women and children were brutally massacred. they have said it was a joint taliban and is

operation. this is a mainly shia minority and they are supposed to be the victims. so far is has not commented on that attack but the taliban have claimed responsibility for only killing 28 local policeman who they have said were resisting them. they have denied the killing of women and children. taliban and is fighters usually fight each other over territory in the east of the country, so if what afg ha n the east of the country, so if what afghan officials have said is true this could spell real trouble for those struggling, especially the government. the commander of nato and american forces in april one this was a possibility and he said that the entire world needs to be focused on afghanistan. one expert on afghanistan from chatham house addressed these fears when he spoke to the bbc‘s david eaves earlier on. the loyalties, especially north of it alice dann has been fluent. —— fluid. the central asian militants

had allegiance to the taliban leader, who then was a different position. what we are seeing is a continuation of those relationships. if it does point to a trend, i would be worried, but i do not think we are at the point where we can see a coalition of isis and the taliban together. would you agree there is a certain resilience was is in afghanistan that has certainly surprised the americans? let us not forget that is in afghanistan is not the same as that in the middle east and in iraq, for example. these militants have been in afghanistan, the central asian militants in particular, for a long time and while we have been busy focusing on the south of afghanistan where the british troops have been based, in the north the situation always was quite fragile... so they have a local support and recognition that

they are not an export, or an import, i should say? exactly. to look at everything as a trend, it is a problematic issue. afghanistan is suffering from various problems, including governance in the north that has been really fragile. there have been local militias that were installed as part of the afghan security infrastructure, which is partly responsible for a lot of the problems of security issues in the north and also, i must tell you, that this particular attack has happened in the northern province and the afghanistan has been in a next—door problems for a long time and they have tried to take it over. this is a strategic population to see if they can capture the full problems together. the british army a75 poachers that are threatening the existence of one species of african elephant. we have been spent a gap and to help train wildlife officers tracking the gangs who have been killing the animals

for their ivory. gavin is in the west of africa and is one of the worst affected states were tens of thousands of forest elephants are being killed. jonathan beale has been given exclusive access to the british soldiers carrying out their training and! british soldiers carrying out their training and i have to warn you, you could find some of these images in his reports distressing. we are travelling through the second largest rainforest in the world, trying to find an animal whose numbers have declined by more than 60% over the last ten years. and this is about as close as you'll ever get to them. forest elephants are wary of humans. we had to turn the engine off and stay silent. this close, they can charge. they are much smaller than the better—known savanna elephants butjust as vulnerable to poachers, who target them for the same reason — their ivory. this is what's been happening to them. another victim to the poachers.

it had been dead for weeks, just the valuable tusks taken. the rest left to rot. talking about gabon, i think we lost 30,000 elephants last year. it's a big and important programme now for gabonese administration. 85% off gabon is covered in rainforest that stretches for thousands of square miles. this is the last century for the elusive forest elephant but it is also ideal hiding and cover for the poachers, who are killing them at an alarming rate. but they are being tracked down. and, with the help of the british army. for the first time, we've been allowed to film the small team of uk soldiers, who are helping train gabon's national park agency in their fight to save the elephant. gabon has got a real high density of forest elephants. that's why it's got

a poaching problem. out here, training the gabonese national parks agency to combat that, both at the tactical and operational levels, means that the british army make a difference in that fight against the illegal wildlife trade. after about 15 minutes... they've even brought in jungle warfare specialists, who, in this exercise, show them how to find and then arrest the poachers. but the british are also teaching them the importance of recovering evidence that might lead to prosecutions. among those being trained are former poachers, who have now turned gamekeeper. ulrich says, as a boy, he used to hunt elephants with his father, just to survive. that used to be tolerated but not any more. these days, the greatest threat to these elephants is not the

locals but criminal gangs, who operate across the border. we are faced with organised crime cartels, heavily armed. and they show no mercy. they come, they kill. and now we're in a situation where, in some of our national parks, it's a war zone. even with a global ban on the sale of ivory, there is still an illegal trade. and, hidden away in these forests, these elephants are still easy prey. jonathan beale, bbc news, gabon. jonathan's report is on our website and if you would like to get in

touch on any of our stories you can get in touch here... thank you very much for watching, goodbye. thank you forjoining me. we will ta ke thank you forjoining me. we will take a look at the weather prospects for the whole of the british hours for the whole of the british hours for the whole of the british hours for the next few days in just a second but firstly i want to bring you up—to—date with where we are with regard to the heat across the southern parts of europe because monday saw very little change in the overall pattern, many temperatures i am showing you are still some 50 8 degrees up on what we would expect at this time of year. part of the reason for that persistence and the temperatures is that the jets reason for that persistence and the temperatures is that thejets genes have not brought cooler conditions. whenever you see that sort of depth in thejet whenever you see that sort of depth in the jet stream, you can get very co mforta bly in the jet stream, you can get very comfortably at the surface rather than the upper surface of the atmosphere fit in an area of low pressure and bear it sits close by the new continent and we will certainly see some of the effect of

that system in the south—eastern quarter as the day goes on. some heavy pulses of rain and the odd rumble of thunder wraps and monday is where the front which we saw and thought it would put out across the southern counties could be pushed further north across the greater pa rt further north across the greater part of england and wales, cloud and rain and a bit of a damp start to things. that area of low pressure is on the mood and unusually it moves from south to north during the course wednesday. it leaves behind a legacy of the failing and really quite active weather front, so again, some heavy pulses of rain from east anglia and the south—east. the best of the in scotland, northern ireland and western parts of england and wales. for that, you have to thank this area of high pressure, trying to be the dominant feature on thursday, but you will notice, it is sandwiched in between those areas of low pressure, so it isa those areas of low pressure, so it is a bit ofa those areas of low pressure, so it is a bit of a battle. we have to get rid of that rain before it brightened up in the east and then

cherish the rest of thursday because it isa cherish the rest of thursday because it is a battle and that area of high pressure loses out to this new area of low pressure up by iceland and its trailing weather fronts and compacted isobars as well which will bring a combination of wet and windy weather initially into scotland and northern ireland and then gradually pushing further south during the course of friday and those temperatures are nothing to write home about at all. the breeze will be quite a considerable factor on the day as well. as eddie cue from friday onto saturday, we still have weather fronts associated with that dragging down across the british isles. not a write—off or a messy start and weekend there will be a mixture of sunny spells and showers, the breeze is rather noticeably visible across the west of scotland and similarfor visible across the west of scotland and similar for sunday. as visible across the west of scotland and similarfor sunday. as we visible across the west of scotland and similar for sunday. as we take you into the start of the new week, we have essentially, low—pressure north of the jet stream, high pressure to the south of the jet

strea m pressure to the south of the jet stream and that enables us to stay in this floor of the west to south—westerly winds right across the british isles, giving us what we call a mobile part of weather. so, the high pressure is not! million miles from the south, not all doom and gloom but it is not doing enough to keep a low—pressure closer to iceland and the northern half of the british isles and at times you will have the spells of wet and windy weather moving on across particularly the northern half of the country. the driest of conditions thanks to that area of high pressure in the south and the wicker windy in the north and for a heatwave, you will have to move down towards the southern parts of europe. goodbye. thought her race was run. goodness me, let's give it to kipyegon. the

olympic champion, world champion. superb.
