earthquake in a century hits mexico. dozens are known to be killed. and we have the story of the girl who gave eight people life, after deciding just days before her death to become an organ donor. hello, and welcome to bbc world news today. hurricane irma has torn across the caribbean, leaving death and destruction in its wake. so far, at least 19 people have been killed, and more than a million people affected. the massive storm — one of the most powerful atlantic hurricanes ever recorded — has passed through the turks and caicos, and haiti, after causing widespread damage in the british virgin islands. it's forecast to pass between cuba and the bahamas in the next few hours, before heading towards florida on the us mainland. and there's another hurricane coming

up and there's another hurricane coming up behind irma in the atlantic. hurricanejose up behind irma in the atlantic. hurricane jose is up behind irma in the atlantic. hurricanejose is strengthening to a category four, with driving winds of 200 kph. that is around 105 mph. forecasters warned it could strengthen still further. laura bicker is the first foreign journalist to reach barbuda, already devastated by irma, where the islands are racing to evacuate before hurricane jose islands are racing to evacuate before hurricanejose makes landfall. the island of barbuda was once a caribbean paradise. now, it is lost. hurricane irma has reduced it to rubble. homes are unrecognisable. the ruins lie scattered, torn and ripped apart. having survived the worst storm in living memory, and knowing another is on the way, people are exhausted, hungry and just desperate to leave. the whole. ..

everybody... barbuda hasjust gone. what do you do now? i don't know. i'm just waiting to get evacuated from here and then i'm going to come back and try and salvage something and help. i don't know. my whole life is here, so... we're not coping. we're definitely not coping. everybody will tell you the same — they're not coping. everyone is in the same situation, and nobody can help one another. don't worry, we're going to get you off the island and we're going to get you to safety, and you'll be taken care of. the prime minister has travelled from neighbouring antigua to provide some reassurance. be patient, we're going to get you all out. he knows this is a race against time before hurricane jose arrives in just a few hours. we heard him haggling for every boat, helicopter or plane to help with the evacuation. can it land here, though?

but fear starts to spread that not everyone will get out in time. this woman has been told she does not have a place on the next boat. the sheer horrifying scale of the devastation here means barely a building is salvageable. that means that the whole island will have to be rebuilt, and the government has already admitted it simply doesn't have the money. the prime minister knows he'll need to find funds from somewhere. we're hoping that friendly governments and international partners will step up to the plate and assist us. they should not see this as a form of the prime minister and the people of antigua and barbuda coming with a begging bowl, cap in hand. this is a disaster, a national disaster of epic proportions, and we really need external assistance. this is not a want, this is a need. the fragments of people's lives now lie in ruins. they can only hope that one day they will once again call the island home, but for now they must leave by any means possible, including this towed barge and they don't know

when they will return. laura bicker, bbc news, barbuda. the netherlands is sending more forces to contain what it calls serious post—storm looting on the island of st martin. dutch prime minister mark rutte said more soldiers and police would be deployed on the island which is shared between france and the netherlands, amid reports of people with guns and machetes roaming the streets. neil crase, a resident of st martin, gave us an update on the situation, and told us what it was like when the storm hit. well, the storm was terrible, and the damage was unbelievable. and a lot of people were left homeless. but the big problem has been the looting that you've referred to and the total lawlessness. we heard this morning that tourists who had been

sheltering were robbed at gunpoint. and that mobs were going door—to—door, robbing people. we've seen no evidence of the soldiers that we understand on the island. in oui’ that we understand on the island. in our area, we've not seen a single one. very quickly sticking to the looting, do you think this is an opportunistic event, or are people desperate? are they trying to get food and water? well, i think it started off maybe a little bit like that. but this in the end has been organised. we are only high point, we saw yesterday it of all traffic jam of people to the supermarket of the island, which has been com pletely the island, which has been completely stripped bare. the whole car park was for the whole day of people, and not the side of a police officer or anything. i understand that saint martin is essentially split between the french and the dutch. the dutch side being a bit

more industrious, do you think there has been more recovery efforts targeted here? is that where the airport is located as well? yes, the main airport is on unserviceable at the moment, as i understand. a couple of small planes have landed with relief supplies, but that's it at the moment. do you think, neil, that there was enough preparation put in place? well, obviously not. i mean, one would hope that there was. there were a few days to get ready. we certainly made our preparations. but the response so far, the roads are still blocked, which means we haven't seen anything being moved, there's nothing happening. you're describing a situation of lawlessness, almost. that's the problem. the roads are clogged. there's supposed to be a curfew in place which they keep saying on the radio, nobody should be on the road, and yet i'm viewing, you know, people driving up and down. a little

later in the programme we will get all the latest from florida, where the governor has won all 20 million of its state inhabitants that they really do need to be ready to evacuate —— has warned. and as if the destruction in the caribbean wasn't bad enough, an earthquake has hit mexico, it's being described as the worst there in a century. at least 32 people have been killed. —— 34 —— 3a people. it had a magnitude of eight and struckjust off the pacific coast to the south of the country. buildings shook in the capital, mexico city, hundreds of miles away. the tremor is reported to have lasted about a minute. sarah campbell has more. a bowling alley in chiapas, the closest state to the quake's epicentre. this is a country used to earthquakes, but not of that magnitude. 600 miles away, the tremors rocked mexico city. frightened, some people preferred to stay outdoors. many can still remember the earthquake of 1985

which was similar in magnitude, and which killed around 10,000 people. translation: it was horrible. i never felt anything so scary in my life. it was small at first, but then it started shaking a lot and it felt like we were getting thrown around. it was terrible. as pictures have emerged from the most severely hit areas, the death toll has continued to rise. the fear is there may be more shocks to come. translation: so far there have been 65 aftershocks. the strongest was magnitude 6.1. however, it's possible that over the next 2a hours we could see a shock that's as strong as the earthquake. in less than a minute, juchitan's town hall was reduced to rubble and at least 17 of its citizens were killed. daylight has revealed the extent of the devastation and the huge effort which will be required to rebuild. sarah campbell, bbc news. for more on this, i'm joined by a

geologist who is an expert on earthquake preparedness. thank you for joining earthquake preparedness. thank you forjoining us. first, what was your initial reaction when you heard about the earthquake in mexico? well, i remember the earthquake that hit my city in 1985, that was a huge earthquake, and more than 10,000 people died that time. and i was praying for the mexican people. where use a price that the country had been struck? well, unfortunately —— were you surprised. where it has taken place, —— were you surprised. where it has ta ken place, the —— were you surprised. where it has taken place, the reason for earthquakes to happen, the plates are moving. earthquakes happen where they happened. you have a lot of

experience with nepal. how did that particular earthquake, i believe it is the one in 2015 that we are talking about, that earthquake, how would that compare to what we're seeing in mexico? mexico's was stronger? well, the nepal earthquake was several times less than that of mexico this time. it is a 7.8. but the death toll was 9000. and that was considered well below. you know, all earthquakes are different. earthquakes sometimes behave differently, you know, the topography, the people, what is the exposure. i was going to say, when you say they behave different, do they behave different because of man being in the location of the earthquake? what is the greatest

danger is matt the earth man being there with these buildings and what have you? right, the earthquake... it takes place, but when it causes damage, it is the man, it is the way that man lives there and constructs there. what is the exposure, you know. if the exposure is big and the vulnerability is there, the exposure is vulnerable, then the damage is big and the cost of the earthquake... is there any way to prepare for an earthquake? the reason i ask this is that at the time of the nepal earthquake in 2013, there had been some prediction that we would never have another strong earthquake in the poll again because of the timing, you note —— in the poll. we might have small ones, but certainly not of that magnitude. how long does it take for

that accumulated energy in the earth's cost to build up? well, in oui’ earth's cost to build up? well, in our case the relation is... the moment is about two centimetres per year. for a century, that makes it quite a significant build—up, and it releases. so one can never say that, you know, the earthquake is not going to take place. you never know, you know. depending upon how long the rapture is taking place, it is the rapture is taking place, it is the earth... do know, we were preparing for the earthquake, you know. every eight or nine years, and earthquake effects nepal. so we were preparing for that. but it depends on the preparedness, how prepared you are, how you build, how you live. and if you do not do that, you

suffer. in the case of nepal, we are not as prepared as mexico is now, you understand ? although, not as prepared as mexico is now, you understand? although, the death toll here, i mean, the preliminary figures that we have seen of the deaths that have taken place, it is well below what could have been there. thank you very much for your insight. more in a moment on the hurricane has linked towards florida. —— hurtling. freedom itself was attacked this morning, and freedom will be defended. the united states will hunt down and punish those responsible. bishop tutu now becomes the spiritual leader of 100,000 anglicans here, in the black soweto

township as well as the white suburbs. we say to you today in a loud and clear voice, enough of blood and tears. enough. the difficult decision we reached together was one that required great and exceptional courage. it's an exodus of up to 60,000 people, caused by the uneven pace of political change in eastern europe. lam free! this is bbc world news today. the latest headlines: at least 1a people are known to have been killed by hurricane irma — with one organisation claiming that more than a million people have been affected by the storm damage.

the mexican government says at least 35 people are dead after an earthquake shook the country's south. it struck just earthquake shook the country's south. it struckjust off earthquake shook the country's south. it struck just off the position —— the pacific coast, and was felt hundreds of miles away in the capital. let's get more on hurricane. —— hurricane irma. the governor of florida has warned its 20 million residents that they should all be prepared to evacuate in the face of hurricane irma, which is wider than the entire state. 500,000 people have already been ordered to leave their homes, and the highways out of the state have been clogged with cars. aleem maqbool reports from miami. they are now calling this one of the biggest mass evacuations in american history. the roads heading out of southern florida are clogged, fuel in short supply. this is a storm of absolutely historic destructive potential. i ask everyone in the storm's path to be vigilant and to heed all recommendations from government

officials and law enforcement. nothing is more important than the safety and security of our people. at miami's airport, people scramble for the last chance to get out by air, including british tourists. we're leaving today if we can. but basically most of the flights are sold out, so we're not even sure we can go. the worst case scenario that we're going to get hit by a hurricane, and it's terrifying, and we're going to be stuck here for weeks, we felt a little bit lost. i had to purchase another ticket yesterday costing $8500 to go one way back to london, and i've already paid once. so, i'm just hoping they're going to get me on this plane. the area of miami normally packed with tourists is within the evacuation zone, and has been left all—but abandoned. just extraordinary to see miami's iconic south beach as deserted as this, but it is an indication ofjust how seriously people

here are taking the warnings, particularly having seen the type of destruction that's been wrought by this hurricane already. if they are coming here, it's to fill pillowcases with sand to barricade their homes before irma hits. donald trump himself will be affected. his florida resort, mar—a—lago, has been forced to close, and is in the projected path of the storm. the national guard has been deployed here. they're stockpiling commodities that could become scarce in the coming days, like drinking water, but they're also preparing for what's likely to be a massive rescue operation. right across this state, there's a sense that time is running out to protect property and lives. aleem maqbool, bbc news, in miami, florida. so, a clear message there to be prepared. you can read about the situation

there on our website — just log on to bbc.com/news. a 13—year—old girl who died from a brain aneurysm has helped a record eight people, including five children, through organ donation. jemima layzell, from somerset, died in 2012, her parents said she was clever, compassionate and creative — and would have been "very proud of her legacy". officials were able to transplant her organs into eight other people. jon kay reports. ready? yes. dear mum, happy birthday. it was just before her mum's birthday party five years ago that jemima suddenly collapsed. # a girl who has everything#. she had an aneurysm that had never been diagnosed. doctors tried to save her life, but her parents were told it was impossible. we'd seen the scans, and there was such a huge shadow on the left side of her brain, she would never, ever recover.

by chance, jemima had spoken to her parents about organ donation just a few days before she collapsed. when she died, they felt they had to follow the schoolgirl‘s wishes. she did specifically say that she wanted to be an organ donor. yes. and sophie, how did that help you then make the decision when you knew that she wasn't going to survive? it made that decision so much easier. you know, it's like an automatic thing, yes, absolutely, because that's what her wishes are. five years on, jemima's family have now been told that her organs, including her heart, lungs and kidneys, have helped more people than any other single donor. freddie is one of those jemima saved. he had been givenjust weeks to live before he received her liver in a transplant. this week, he started secondary school. his family's message: thank you — but thatjust doesn't seem enough, because you're grateful

that they actually stuck tojemima's wishes and let her donate her organs, which allowed our child to live. but for our child to live, their child had to die. so it's really tough, but we can never be thankful enough. this month, the two families will meet for the first time at a charity ball organised injemima's memory. her parents know that not everyone would make the decision they did, but with more than 6,000 people waiting for transplants, they're now campaigning for more of us to register as donors. jon kay, bbc news, somerset. john watson has all the sport for us. john watson has all the sport for us. james anderson reach 500 test wickets, joining the likes of shane

at 10pm, fiona bruce will be here with a full round—up of today's news. first, we have a special investigation. hello, i'm shawn flegler, welcome to a new welcome to a new series of inside out. over the coming weeks we'll be bringing you surprising stories from the capital. westminster, london bridge, manchester and the recent attacks in barcelona have brought condemnation and sympathy from around the world. in a survey conducted exclusively for inside out by yougov, nine out of ten people said further attacks in britain are likely. while the current threat level for international terrorism in the uk remains at severe. prime minister theresa may has vowed to shut down the extremists operating online. and it seems many of us are behind her.

our survey revealed that 44% of people questioned in london think more should be done to help the security services tackle terrorism — even if individual privacy suffers. so what are the terrorists doing online? over the past two years inside out london has been undercover, tracking the online operations of the so—called islamic state. what we've discovered from encrypted messages and the dark web was shocking evidence of how the attacks on westminster and london bridge were organised. terrorist expert raffaello pantucci has this special report. westminster at a stand—still. london bridge in a state of emergency. were these isolated terror attacks by individuals working independently, so—called lone wolves or part of a master plan, remotely engineered byjihadists in syria? it's inconceivable that there wasn't the use of social media apps

to connect these individuals who have carried out these attacks with terrorists from islamic state. the result of a two—year undercover investigation, we reveal new evidence linking isis' online operations with he said it was a good target because it was crowded with disbelievers and civilians. and he said if i was successful with this operation it would be very damaging for the uk. and we expose how the terrorist group use the dark web to coerce young british muslims into carrying out attacks. the internet is a sort dream tool for terrorist group like isis. it's opened up brand new ways of recruiting, of preparing and planning acts of terror in a way that is very, very difficult indeed for the authorities to stop. i've spent much of my career

studying islamist terrorist cells operating in the uk and how they have persuaded hundreds of young men to travel far away from home and take up arms or launch attacks against the very societies in which they were born. as the battles rage in iraq and syria, much is being made of isis' recent retreat. the caliphate might be crumbling and the jihadists losing ground, but in cyberspace, they are advancing. we're now in a new era of warfare where a string of tweets has the power to trigger a deadly attack at the very heart of our democracy.
