Singapore, Midnight In London and 7 30am in pyongyang, where speculation has been growing that north korea may be ready to carry out its sixth nuclear test, as soon as this weekend. If so, it would coincide with the anniversary of the birth of the nations founder, kim il sung, the countrys most Important National holiday, also known as the day of the son. But as the world watches that, pyongyang has been putting its best foot forward for journalists. Has been putting its best foot forward forjournalists. Our correspondentjohn sud worth, whose movements are being monitored by authorities there, sent us this report sudworth. They poured into Central Pyongyang in their Tens Of Thousands. Of citizens and soldiers alike, north korea has always demanded displays of mass devotion. And, at the front of the crowd, there was kim jong un. Celebrating not a Missile Launch or a rocket test, but the construction of pyongyangs newest street. The inauguration of a few tower blocks and shops would, anywhere else, raise barely a murmur. In pyongyang, it is met with rapturous applause. It might seem like an extraordinary celebration to mark the opening of a street, but it is about so much more than that. It is about economic survival, resilience, and sending a message to the outside world of total loyalty to the leader. The countrys Prime Minister told the crowd that the opening of the new street sends a more powerful signal to the world than any number of nuclear bombs. But in reality, for north korea, bombs are vital. With reports that another nuclear test may be imminent, we are taken on a tour of a school. The dear marshall, kim jong un, clothes and feeds us, this nine Year Old Girl tells me. And, from an early age, she is told that it is bombs and missiles that guarantee his regimes survival. For a poor and isolated country like north korea, this reasoning has some logic. Might it have gone the way of iraq or libya, its leaders ask, if it didnt have its Nuclear Programme . So foreign journalists are brought here to be shown a friendly face. And there are many of them. But also the willingness to endure. Sanctions dont bother us at all, this man tells me. United around our leader, nothing can harm us. The message is clear. North korea is marching towards its nuclear future, and no amount of threat or coercion from a us president will get in its way. Talking about the us president , a short time ago the us president told the media he trusts china to rein north korea in. North korea is a problem, the problem will be taken care of. I will say this. I think china has been working very hard. I have really co m e been working very hard. I have really come to like and respect, as you know, president xi is a terrific person, we have spent a lot of time together in florida, and he is a very special man. So we will see how it goes, i think he is going to try very hard. It has certainly been a busy time for the trump administration, because the us military has for the first time dropped one of its largest conventional bombs, targeting Islamic State militants, in afghanistan. And what you are looking at art images of the so called mother of all bombs being tested back in 2003. The White House Press secretary sean spicer, says the ammunition was targeting the hideouts of the Islamic State group. We targeted a system of tunnels and caves that isis fighters use to move around freely, making it easier for them to target us military advisers and Afghan Forces in the area. The United States takes the fight against isis very seriously, and in order to defeat the group, we must deny them operational space, which we did. The United States took all precautions necessary to prevent civilian casualties and Collateral Damage as a result of the operation. Sean spicer there. Our washington correspondent will give us a few more details later on in the programme. White house will also be closely monitoring the syrian president , basharal assad,s closely monitoring the syrian president , Bashar Al Assad,s denial of any involvement in last weeks Chemical Attack in syria. More than 80 people were killed in the attack, which prompted a us Airstrike A Government Airbase in response. Afp we re government airbase in response. Afp were told by Bashar Al Assad that the claims that his regime carried out the attack were 100 fabrication. We dont know worth a dead at all . Who committed the act, if there was an attack . What mattered. You have no information at all, nothing at all. So you are saying it is a fabrication . Definitely, 100 for us it is a fabrication. We dont have chemicals, and no one has information or evidence. Police in pakistan Say University student has been murdered on campus bya Group Student has been murdered on campus by a group of elite students, who accused him of less than me. They reportedly said that he posted material online that was offensive to muslims. Heavy rain and strong winds are continuing to pound parts of new zealands north island, after one of the worst storms in decades made landfall. More than 8000 homes are still without power. There are warnings that gusts of up to 140 kilometres an hour could hit the capital, wellington. The lawyer and doors up of david dao, the passenger who was forcibly removed from a overbooked United Airlines flight earlier this week has said that he is likely to sue the us caria. David daos daughter said that what had happened to her father had left the whole family distress. What happened to my dad should never happen to any human being, regardless of the circumstance. We were horrified, and shocked and sickened, to learn what had happened to him, and to see what had happened to him. We hope that, in the future, nothing like this happens again. Yahoo is facing a lawsuit alleging that the firm mismanaged funds set aside to help jailed chinese dissidents. The 17 million fund was set up after yahoo provided information about political dissidents to the chinese government. The lawsuit filed on behalf of eight activists in china claims that the money was used to fight other legal cases, and also to buy properties in washington. The Italian Football Club ac milan has been sold to a chinese led consortium. This of course brings to an end the era of ownership by the tycoon and former italian Prime Ministers silvio berlusconi. The purchase is worth more than 750 million. A bit earlier in the programme we heard donald trump talking about north korea, and his hope that china would deal with the problem. But earlier he had also said he would sort it out alone. Well, what kind of message could the use of the mother of all bombs in afghanistan sent to north korea . Here is our correspondent in washington. This is a president who is not afraid to flex his military muscles. That is the message that will be heard in pyongyang. This isjust a week after he sent 59 Tomahawk Missiles into syria. Is also naval stri keforce missiles into syria. Is also naval strikeforce being sent to the seas off north korea, and all of this comes into the third month of Donald Trumps presidency. And he is sending a message to north korea, perhaps not the intended message out of all of this, but it is a secondary of all of this, but it is a secondary message of all of this, but it is a secondary message out of sending the mother of all bombs, he is sending that message saying, look, i have got the Military Capability and i am not afraid to use it. Now what has been the reaction so far in washington, in the us, to this mother of all bombs . Well, some democrats have shown their disapproval, but it will be interesting to see how his own party react to this. It has many felt that president 0bama needed to show greater strength, and use the Military Weapons that they had. I mean, they have had this mother of all bombs since 2003 and it has never been used. There has been a 15 year conflict in afghanistan in which the us has been involved. 60 of the country is controlled by the afg ha n of the country is controlled by the afghan government. Therefore there is still a lot to play for when it comes to dealing with the problems in afghanistan. And now, donald trumpjust, in afghanistan. And now, donald trump just, as i in afghanistan. And now, donald trumpjust, as i mentioned, three months in, is dropping this bomb. But this is a president who campaigned on an america first, isolationist platform. So it will be interesting to see how his own party, his own supporters, go ahead with this. Because they fought for america first, and here we are, donald trump, the globalist. Now, it is a long, long way away, but the American Space agency, nasa, says one of saturns moons may now be the single best place to look for life beyond earth. Samples of the waters is erupting from the moons surface suggest it has all the conditions needed for life. The discovery was made by the cassini spacecraft, which is coming to the end of a 13 year mission to saturn. For over a decade, cassini has shared the wonders of saturn, and its family of icy moons. A nasa video promoting a mission that keeps making astonishing discoveries about saturn. A spacecraft called cassini has focused on one of saturns moons, enceladus. Beneath its icy surface is a deep ocean. And greatjets of water, blasting out of it, contain ingredients needed for life. In fact, nasa scientists now say that on the floor of the ocean there may be hydrothermal vents, like these, on earth, making hydrogen that can feed microbes. So, conceivably, there could be life on enceladus. This is a very significant finding, because the hydrogen could be a potential source of Chemical Energy for any microbes that might be in enceladuss ocean. So this is a very exciting finding for the cassini team. Saturn, with its rings, is perhaps the most striking of the planets, and this mission by nasa and the European Space agency has been incredibly revealing. The spacecraft itself, cassini, is one of the largest ever sent into deep space. It stands nearly seven meters tall, and it has been on an epicjourney. It left earth back in 1997, flying out beyond mars, weaving past jupiter, before arriving at saturn in 2004, and it has been studying the planet ever since. But now comes the most spectacular stage of all, as the Spacecraft Orbits inside the famous rings. We now know they are made of pieces of ice and rock, ranging from tiny specs to lumps the size of houses, and flying this close will give us unprecedented views of the rings, and of saturn itself. This journey of discovery will get closer to the rings than ever before. But the instruments were built back in the early 1990s, and the scientists arent sure they will work. The reason that im a bit nervous is that it was the final orbits were designed with my instruments in mind, and with the Gravity Instrument in mind. And so, theres a lot of pressure on us to produce really good science. And the instruments are getting old, just like we are. So im very excited about it, but im rather unsettled by it as well. Cassini will skim The Clouds Of Saturn for the next few months before burning up. The idea is to make sure the spacecraft does not crash on to any of saturns moons, and contaminate them, especially the icy world of enceladus. We have no idea if anything is actually alive on it. That wont be known until a future mission, maybe decades away. But with tonights new findings, this becomes one of the likeliest places in the solar system to find life beyond earth.
