A series of explosions and running gunbattles in the streets of indonesia. The socalled Islamic State says it is behind the attack. How low can oil go, dropping prices of crude are sending ripples across the globe and the fallout is far from over. He made evil seductive, Actor Alan Rickman has died. To the villain in diehard, he won fans of every age. Welcome to our viewers in america and around the globe. A series of explosions and attacks rocked the indonesian capital of jakarta. Two civilians were killed in an assault carried out by a group linked to the Islamic State. Jonathan is in jakarta with the latest. High above, onlookers watched as the attack unfolded. First, an explosion. Then gunfire. It was a battle in the main street running through central jakarta. Suddenly there was panic and the crowds of shoppers scattered. The attackers targeted a police box. Officers crouched behind cars and exchanged gunfire. At this stage, they had no idea how many they were dealing with. One of the perpetrators was caught here on camera. I was on a motorbike when the explosion went off. I saw people running away and to people on the ground bleeding. I also saw two on a motorbike and a backpack. They threw the bomb. Twice there were explosions. Got closer and they were explosions. Then i saw the policeman by the traffic light. Armored vehicles were deployed and within five hours, the authorities declared it was over. Deadof the attackers were along with two victims. As they gathered evidence from the scene, the mood was jittery. Police trying to hold back crowds for fear of further explosions. We give our condolences on the occurrence of these events. Disruptmn actions that Public Security and disturb the peace of the people. Indonesia had been bracing itself for just such as an attack, or something worse. It has been six years since the last major bombing and that is down to good antiterrorism work. The war in syria has reinvigorated hardline this country and what we saw today may be the first consequence of that. Once again, the city finds itself cleaning up after an ambitious terrorist operation knowing there may be more to come. Muslimsmall fraction of believe in overthrowing the country through violence. Extremism has limited appeal here. A little to recap vick. Katty for more on the attacks, i spoke with the former counterterrorism analyst at the cia. An ambitious attack, but by the not actuallysome, that deadly. Was it badly planned or was security effective . A little bit of both. You had five attackers with firearms and so forth attacking onlyor area and they were able to killed two civilians is weregedy, but the military on the spot and they took these guys out without further loss of life. People weretwo killed, this was a win for the good guys. Katty what does this say about the Islamic State in indonesia . They have reached in india and asia. Perhaps it was the purpose. People think there are up to syriaitizens working in for the Islamic State. That is a drop in the bucket for a country of 250 million human beings. Very good atey are stopping this kind of attack and the fact weve only seen a couple of civilian deaths show they know what they are doing. Katty there was a crackdown that was just lifted on january. Did the Security Forces think the threat was over . They thought there was some reduction in the threat level. Obviously they knew something was going to happen. Folks were saying they would attack indonesia. The fact that happened when he four hours ago suggested they were ready for something. The fact that they could deploy a police so quickly into a major area suggests they knew something was going to happen. Katty tell me about this man, bahrun naim, who had been in treason for suspected terrorist activity. How much did the authorities want to get their hands on him . Very match very much. He seems to be a chatty cathy, actually. He is willing to talk to westerners and he is interested an isis emirate. This was supposedly his effort, his first effort to undermine the indonesian government. The fact that he was relatively unsuccessful in killing a lot of people suggests katty he managed to slip into syria, having been in prison in indonesia. The fact that he made his way all the way to the middle east shows that there are problems with the whole security system. It is not impossible to leave indonesia. He is one of the guys who slipped through the net. Katty and how difficult it is to track people. Thank you. A look at other news from around the world.

A british newspaper says in line with his wishes, no family or friends were present at the ceremony. A publicist for the singer said they would neither confirm nor deny the story. Global oil prices rebounded today following an eight days get. They are near record lows as supply outstrips demand because opec continues to pump as much as it likes. The u. S. Has ramped up production and iran is getting as part ofhe game the nuclear deal with world powers. Meanwhile, demand in china and other emerging countries just looking at what they were. Put all that together, and crude prices have fallen off a cliff in the last 18 months. Analysts are stepping over each other to predict how low they will fall as Oil Companies fire workers and cut back on investments. The vicechairman of the Consultancy Firm joins me in a short time ago. Daniel, you have written recently that the partys over for oil. You dont see recovery anytime soon . Daniel not in the first half of 2016. I think we are going to continue to look at a weak market. I think tomorrow iran will start being approved for the nuclear deal. I think the market will rebalance. It wont be tomorrow. It an on balance, is excess of supply or falling demand in emerging markets to blame . Daniel you can point to three things. One is excess of supply. Producers are going full out. Gulf producers do not want to make room for iran to come back because there are bigger issues between them. Secondly, weak demand in china. The third factor is the strong dollar. Although there was some differences today when the , dollar is strong, oil prices tend to head in the other direction. Katty to what extent does global instability affect oil prices . Daniel there is no shortage of global instability. We could say there is a surplus of instability, but there is a greater surplus of oil. Its remarkable with all the tension in the world that it is not reflected at this point in the price of oil. But at some point it will be. Katty when will that point be and how much does it recover . Daniel if you just look at supply and demand, we could look at the second half of the year for rebalancing. In terms of things to watch, what happens with iraq. If iraq holds together, venezuela is teetering on the edge, and there is this tension between sunni and shia, the gulf arabs and iran. On top of that, there is isis, so there is no shortage. Katty we are starting to see the effects beyond the oil industry. We heard the news yesterday that al jazeera in america is shutting in the united states. What could actually boost Economic Growth . Daniel it has done so, but not as much as expected. Certainly, in the united states, for motorists going to the gasoline pump, its great. Americans are driving more than ever before. If you are an Oil Importing country, its good. The u. S. Has gone from importing 60 of its oil to 25 , so theres a benefit over here. You have an industrial sector that supports it. It has been a more mixed picture. Katty did economists get that wrong . Daniel i think there was an assumption that there would be a bigger benefit. Because energy is a big part of stock markets, it pulls down stock markets. Thats been another factor. Katty thanks for coming in. We will get you back when oil starts to creep back up again. Another bad day for athletics after a report that top officials at the track and field events must have known about the scale of doping in russia and a detailed the bribery and extortion of athletes which came from the very top. Our Sports Editor has all the details. Of the storm on sport in they on a grip of crisis. The first report led to expulsion and now for the sequel. The president wanting to be here in person as the governing body was laid there. Of course there was cover up and delay and all sorts of things. Acknowledge this. If you cant acknowledge it, you are never going to get past it. Accusations,f corruption was embedded in the organization. His righthand man forced to the down was well aware of skeletons in the cupboard and the council on which he sat could not have been unaware of the extent of doping. Is that untenable . What is clear is we did not have enough oversight on the operational delivery of many of these programs. We needed to know more. We didnt know more. The changes i am going to make will allow the current counsel to know more. And my successors to know more. As a number four, he has faced questions about what he knew. Today some muchneeded support for the beleaguered president. An enormous amount of recovery has to do with the that has to occur here and i cant think of anyone better than you to lead that. The report said that he had suggested a deal may need to be made with president Vladimir Putin to ensure athletes accused of doping would not compete in the World Championships in moscow. We have to confront is what do we need to put in place . That means we will never return to this horror show again. He will now hope this is as bad as it gets, but with the credibility of his organization at an alltime low, the path to regaining trust will not be an easy one. Katty reporting on the sorry state of global athletics. You are watching bbc world news america. Tos white a tight squeeze bulgary. A buggery a on the east coast, winter has been off to a slow start. In russia, the season in full swing. Snowstorms have been reported and in the capital half the january total fell in one day. Stephen rosenberg has been out to see how they cope with the white stuff. There are three things russia has a lot of, oil, gas, and as you can see, a lot of snow. This is britain. Im pretty sure this quantity will cause chaos on the roads. Usually managed to keep things moving. How do they do it . And what do they do with all the snow . Come to the rescue. A very long column of snowplows. There are 15 and a half thousand vehicles on the roads tonight for this snowstorm. This is what they called the golden hands. As you can see the snow is scooped up into the machine. It goes into a lorry behind. That is not the end of the story. Once it is cleared, it is taken to another part of the city to be disposed of and we are going along to see how they do it. So it is now dumping its load into a bunker where it is cut into tiny pieces by a giant mincer. That is mixed with sewage water and cleaned thoroughly and eventually ends up in the moscow river and that is the end of the the moscow snow. Steve rosenberg, bbc news, moscow. Katty it is believed to be the largest burglary in british history, and today, three men were convicted of involvement in the robbery. They stole jewelry worth more than 20 million over easter weekend last year. Four other men, all in their 60s and 70s, had previously pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit burglary. Daniel has all the details. At first, it seems like the perfect crime, millions of pounds of jewelry stole under the feet of londons diamond dealers. But in fact, the thieves left a trail of evidence to follow. Brian reeder, terry perkins, danny jones, and Kenny Collins pleaded guilty last year. Today, two more men were found guilty by a jury and another man was found guilty of helping move the stolen property. Like so many infamous crimes, it was plotted in a london pub, a group of thieves planning one last job. They let themselves in through the back door and a fire escape before using a lift to get into the safe deposit. They used a diamond tipped drill. The smashed alarm still got the signal out. A Security Guard was called from home. He checked the external doors. As the police had not responded to the alarm, he left as the drilling continued beneath his feet. The next morning, the group drove off, having failed to break into the vault. Two nights later, they got in. We could not believe how easy it was to get through. I am told its possible. It looks very tight. Im also told the best way to do is to use a superman pose. Get a push from behind. If someone can give me a push. Hand out. Once it is out, its possible. Go on. There you are. The gang broke into 73 safe deposit boxes and made off with 14 Million Pounds worth of gold, diamonds, and jewelry. Many of their victims were uninsured. Like this person. He lost hundreds of thousands of pounds. The police told me. I did not know where i was. I was screaming. And look what happened. I get dizzy all the time and had to take medication. At first, the police struggled, but cctv led them to a lifelong criminal and two infamous thieves. The police put listening devices in two of the gangs cars. These were tantamount to confessions by the gang. As the men tried to move their loot, detectives were watching and caught them redhanded. All except one. Seen here, a man called basil who is still missing along with 10 Million Pounds. Their 60s were in and 70s. One way to spend your retirement.
