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 crees 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.

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 chinas 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 theyre 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 weve 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 thats 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.

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.

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 bbcs 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 bbcs 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 bbcs 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.
