but also the increasing risks are increasing risk of potential power cuts that could lead to a serious overheating of the reactors with disastrous consequences. let's take a look now at some other stories making headlines around the world. at least 14 people have been killed and dozens wounded. in a rocket attack on a crowded market in the town of albano in northern syria. theory is controlled by turkey backed opposition fighters. the syrian observatory for human rights as syrian government forces were behind the attack. police a gunman have taken control of a hotel in the somali capital, no good issue following car bomb blast and gunfire. the i'll call you to link to our show. bob group has claimed responsibility for the attack on the high, yet hotel is a popular venue, malone, makers and other government officials. mexican authorities have arrested
