For the last week, the two men have been holding talks on the transition of power. Sarah corker reports. Atan at an event marking 100 years since that earth of Nelson Mandela was the clearest signal yet that the end of the trouble presidency of jacob zuma is near. Addressing the crowds, the president in waiting promised a resolution on zumas future. We are currently engaged in discussions around the transition to a new administration and specifically to resolve the issues of the position of the president of the republic of south africa. For the last week, there have been negotiating the president s exit strategy. But with a country in limbo, the Ancs National executive committee is holding a special meeting later in it is thought the pa rtys meeting later in it is thought the partys governing body will formally ask him to resign. He has faced increasing pressure to quit since december when he lost control of the governing anc. The presidency has been marred by a production scandals and soaring unemployment. The organisation does not belong to a family, does not long to me, does not belong to this lady. It belongs to everybody in this country. We are degree graduates, we have nojobs. We go door handing out cds. We have nojobs. And so we go door handing out cds. We have no jobs. And so whether he is pushed 01 no jobs. And so whether he is pushed or resigns, jacob zuma will now be will soon be out of power. If this speech is anything to go by, he is planning to get turf on tough on corruption. In a significant move, americas Vice President said the us is ready to talk to north korea. In an interview with the Washington Post, he said the policy of maximum pressure and sanctions would continue. But he also said if north korea wished to talk, the us would listen. Lets get the latest from our correspondent, steve mcdonell, in seoul. A few days ago, mike pence was in north korea and the body language was somewhat hostile. What has changed in 2a, 48 hours . Changed in 24, 48 hours . Yes, could the United States now be considering unconditional initial talks with north korea . If this Washington Post is to be released believe, at least it is on the table. It seems that this plan has been hatched by the us Vice President mike pence in discussions with south koreas president. The sequence with south koreas president. The sequence is kind of important. Might p sequence is kind of important. Might p meet with him in seoul and the president says i will meet this north korean delegation and i guess he is the one reassuring the us we will keep the sanctions pressure on north korea, wejust want will keep the sanctions pressure on north korea, we just want to talk. So then he has his meeting with the north korean delegation, including the north korean leaders sister. After that, he sits down again with mike pence while watching an event at the Winter Olympics. They are discussing politics while watching the Winter Olympics and he says to Vice President p, i suggested to them that they open a dialogue with washington. In these discussions, again, they have spoken about and come up with this idea that you dont have to take pressure off north korea to at least have some sort of initial talks. According to this report, this is a reporter who was with mike pence on air force to after he left here, that the Trump Administration is seriously considering this, and if it takes place, it would be a massive change in policy from the Trump Administration. We have just seen some pictures on oui screens, we have just seen some pictures on our screens, the arrival and being in seoul in south korea has ian all over the western media. How has that this visit gone down in seoul in south korea itself . Of course, it is getting wall to wall coverage here, and i think there has been some misunderstanding in certain circles. Some members of the public have been complaining that the media has been covering her visit so extensively in perhaps a fawning way. I think the misunderstanding is that this is just a huge story, not only in south korea, but it has enormous implications for the whole world. I think South Koreans understand, that it necessarily love her or are going to have the north korean regime off the hook for its considerable human rights abuses or having nuclear weapons, it is just the majority are people here who voted on a platform of attempting dialogue think that some sort of connection with the north is the best way forward in terms of peace given that all those yea rs of terms of peace given that all those years of freezing them out as in north from having its weapons. The other aspect is people are absolutely fascinated with her because we know nothing about that Leadership Group in north korea. Who had even seen footage of her before this week . Now there are pictures, photos. The south korean press is watching her every facial expression to work out what she is thinking. This is the first time she has been to south korea. She liked the place . Is she comparing it to the north . What will she be telling her brother . All these things. They seem flippant on one level. Have huge geopolitical ramifications. Much lest picturesque than him being in young chang just a few days ago. Pyeongchang. Lets take a look at some of the other stories making the news.

In frozen fields near moscow, this is all that remains of flight 703. Cctv cameras captured the moment the aircraft smashed into the ground and exploded in a fireball. Its wreckage strewn for a mile across the russian countryside. Half buried in snow. Conditions were treacherous. The Emergency Services struggled through snowdrifts to reach the crash scene. But it quickly became clear this was no rescue operation. Theirjob was to recover the bodies. The Saratov Airlines flight had taken off from moscows airport with more than 70 people on board. It was bound for 0rsk, 900 miles south east in the ural mountains. Minutes after takeoff, the plane disappeared from radar. It had crashed near the russian capital. We saw it turning up in the sky, this eyewitness said. It fell, there was a blast. There was a loud boom it is unclear what caused the jet to fall out of the sky. The kremlin has ordered an urgent investigation and president putin today offered his condolences to the families of the victims. But that is little comfort to the relatives and friends of those on board flight 703. At 0rsk airport, grief mixed with disbelief as people realised theyd been waiting for loved ones who would never arrive. The recovery operation will continue through the night. Emergency teams are still searching for victims of this crash and for clues to what caused it.

Theyll lose the cash if they cant show a robust approach to safeguarding. Im very clear it doesnt matter whether youve got a whistleblowing hotlines, it doesnt matter whether you have got good safeguarding practices in place. If the moral leadership at the top of the organisation isnt there, and we can have you as a partner. She says 0xfam didnt give her department the full facts about what happened in haiti. It is about was any harm done. Was there any involvement of the beneficiaries of the aid involved . Was there any impact on them . They told us no. That was a lie, wasnt it . Bbc news asked 0xfam for an interview. The request was refused. But in a statement, its trustees announced a series of reforms to strengthen the vetting and recruitment of staff, set up an external whistleblowing helpline and bring in mandatory safeguarding training for new employees. Thereve been more revelations about other charities too reports that christian aid, save the children and the British Red Cross have all investigated staff over Sexual Misconduct allegations. Some who know the sector well arent surprised. People need to realise that the vast majority of aid work in crisis situations is extraordinary. It saves lives. It helps people who are very, very vulnerable. But aid agencies need to do a lot, lot more to make sure that the best people are going into these areas. They are monitored and that these people who are very vulnerable they have a voice as well in how this unfolds. Taxpayers money current cases of Sexual Misconduct.

In a significant shift to the position of the us, Vice President mike pence has said he is ready to talk to north korea, although the policy of maximum pressure and sanctions would continue. The British Foreign secretary Boris Johnson has told the leader of myanmar, aung san suu kyi, that there needs to be a full and independent investigation into violence in the state of rakhine. During talks in the burmese capital, naypyidaw, mrjohnson also urged her to create the right conditions for Rohingya Muslims, many of whom have fled to neighbouring bangladesh to be allowed to return home safely. Three british aid workers have filmed their efforts to help some of the hundreds of thousands of muslim rohingya. The bbcs chris rogers has been looking at the charities footage, piecing together their mission. A warning, you may find some images distressing. The Worlds Largest refugee camp, this is home to more than 800,000 Rohingya Muslim refugees escaping persecution in buddhist dominated myanmar. Dr ramiz momeni, Genevieve Jones hernandez and sarah wade have travelled the world helping refugees. But nothing can prepare them for what lies ahead. Theirjourney begins at the gateway to the camp where newly arrived refugees receive basic aid. What it is that they receive here is a bag with a bucket and, i guess, some building essentials. But the Humanitas Charity are heading deep into the camp a two hour trek, where there is no aid, to set up a medical centre. The baby is 10. 5 days and has not been breast fed. There are so many babies, newborns dont have any food, starving. She was provided vitamins but theyre just for her, not the baby. Honestly, it is like the baby is, um. Yeah . Er, dying. So we have just organised for her to go and get referred, because she needs to go to a hospital. For that, she needs to have her id card. Theyre just in incredible pain with all of these sores all over their heads and really dry skin and cracked skin all over their body. So we were, you know, literally just rubbing them down with vaseline. This is a newborn baby, it was born yesterday, and they tied the umbilical cord with just a piece of rope. Today, like, its been non stop. Theyre shivering, coughing, throwing up. Its just. Its. I dont know. I cant. Seriously. I think we expected to turn up and be working alongside a lot more organisations or volunteers. Weve worked within the syrian refugee crisis and it was full of organisations and volunteers and people there on the ground, and i think we expected this to be slightly similar. And it isnt. Her pulse is very low so we are just rushing to the hospital. We have got these newly arrived rohingya in severe, severe dehydration. There is absolute lack of aid for these people. All of these people tired, sick, hungry. And yet to reach their final destination in this camp and set up home. It isnt so much as a difficult thing to be here, i think it would be more of a difficult thing to leave, knowing that we are leaving these people in such a dire situation. Chris rogers looking at the work of some of the Charity Workers in bangladesh. Its been confirmed that three british tourists were killed in a Helicopter Crash at the grand canyon in arizona on saturday. Three other british people, together with the pilot, were injured. Cbs reporter Mireya Villarreal has the details. New information is being released about the accident that happened here at the grand canyon west area. The accident happened just after 5pm on saturday afternoon and we now know the passengers on board, six of them, three of them that passed away in the accident, they were all tourists from the united kingdom. We have spoken with witnesses that actually responded to the scene, these are people that were in other touring groups that were around the canyon at the time. They saw the black smoke, they heard the explosion and they rushed to the scene to help. They were very surprised to see that there were actually survivors coming out of that helicopter. One man had 95 of his body burned. Another woman, actually a nurse, was there to help treat and triage. She spoke with one of the women, one of the survivors. That woman is a realtor, a realty lawyer, from the london area. She says this woman was in excruciating pain and could not stop screaming. She said the toughest thing about treating these survivors was the fact that they had no tools, they had no way to help ease their pain while they were out there. The conditions were so bad, as you can see, it is extremely wind out here right now, the conditions were so bad the night of the accident that they actually had to wait several hours, actually eight hours, to get the survivors and the bodies and the crews that were helping them out of the canyon area. It was just too dangerous to transport them at any other time. Right now, we know that the federal Aviation Administration as well as the National Transportation safety board, they all have investigators here on scene. They are working with the Hualapai Police department. We also know that papillon, the company that is actually in charge of the helicopter, they are also working with the Police Department as well, as well as the federal investigators on this. They have sent their condolences and say that they will co operate as well as they can with this investigation. We did some digging on this company, we did found out that they have had other accidents in the past. Back in 2001, they had an accident that killed also six people in the situation, in that particular accident. There was one survivor that has since had numerous surgeries since then. 0bviously, right now, this is a very tumultuous situation. Its still under investigation. There is no cause for the accident and actually, right now, all of the commercial choppers in this area have been grounded until the weather clears up in this area and the winds die down over the next 24 hours. Now for a round up of the latest action from pyeongchang on day three of the Winter Olympics. In the curling, favourites canada have beaten norway in the first mixed doubles semi final. A convincing 8 4 win put them into the final, where theyll face either 0lympic athletes from russia or switzerland. The finale of the Team Figure Skating is under way and in the mens single free skating, patrick chan of canada currently leads the field. 0verall standings put canada way out in front, followed by 0ar and the usa. Strong cross winds hampered progress in the snowboarding, twice delaying the start of the Womens Slopestyle final. In the early stages norways Silje Norendal tops the field of 26 riders at phoenix snow park. The recently released movie padmaavat is one of indias most expensive films ever made. Its also been one of its most controversial. A cast member received death threats, cinemas were vandalised and the director of the film was assaulted. Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor plays one of the main characters. He spoke to us about the movie and the reaction its received. Movies are a huge part of a democracy, you know . Its very important to be open to different views, so i think padmaavat today has fought that battle and its come out winning because it has finally made it out there and it has received so much love. I think all of us who were on the film were very surprised with how much it had to deal with before it could finally make it out, and it still hasnt released in a couple of states in the country. Its a very personal story between three few people because it wasnt about war, it was about wanting to acquire another mans woman, and thats why its a very sensitive subject, you know, people are very passionate about it. We had made the film with really good intent and there was a preconceived notion about the film which could only be broken once it was released. I think art can only survive if there is a certain amount of freedom and liberation, and films need to be seen in context and with an open mind. Cinema needs to be challenged and its beauty and its purity needs to be upheld. Despite the controversy it still looks spectacular. Dont forget you can get in touch with me and some of the team on twitter, im nkemifejika. Thanks for being with us. Join us again. Hello there. Sunday was a better, brighter, sunnier day for many of us than what we saw on saturday, but there were some pretty hefty hail and snow showers around. Now, for the upcoming week, its going to be fairly unsettled. I think theres going to be a lot of rain, maybe some disruptive snow at times. Itll be quite windy too. And then signs of something a bit milder moving into the south to end the week. This is the satellite picture from the last 12 hours. You can see the showers, the speckles indicating those snow and hail showers pushing into the north and west of the country. We start monday morning off on a really cold note. Widespread frost and a risk of some ice, particularly where we have the showers. Now, for monday itself, were in between weather systems. A ridge of High Pressure building in, so actually, it should be fine and dry for many of us before this system moves in for monday night, bringing us rain, sleet and snow. So its a cold start to monday. There will be that frost around, some ice to watch out for, but plenty of sunshine around. A few wintry showers across the north and the west of the country but apart from that, most places should be dry. But its going to be another chilly one and temperatures generally between five to seven or eight degrees. The winds will pick up across Northern Ireland by the end of the day ahead of this weather system. Rain, sleet and snow will push in across Northern Ireland, initially, giving some accumulations of snow here, and then move on into much of western britain. Now, were looking at some pretty disruptive snow, in fact, the high ground of wales, certainly for Northern England and for central southern scotland, so a pretty treacherous morning commute on tuesday across central southern scotland, Northern England. Watch out for the snow and for the ice. This weather front will slowly move its way eastwards through the course of the day, becoming confined to eastern areas. A mix of rain and sleet i think further south. Further west, though, it brightens up into the afternoon. We should see sunshine and wintry showers returning. Most of these wintry showers falling across western scotland. Then we see another weather system moving in for wednesday we do it all again basically. This will bring another spell of Gale Force Winds as it moves up from the south west and rain, sleet and snow. But it looks like the snow will be confined to the hills of central and northern parts of the uk, whereas further south, it should be largely of rain thats because were starting to see slightly less cold air moving in, so i think wednesday afternoon, although its going to be drab, cloudy and wet for most of us, see a little bit of milder air pushing into the south and the south west but still cold in the north. Then into thursday, that weather front moves away and were into a westerly wind regime. That will feed in plenty of showers to northern and western parts of the country. Again, wintry in the north. Further south, therell be mainly rain as it is going to be a little less cold in the south temperatures in double figures here. This is bbc news.
