Drowning of migrants off the coast of yemen. 19 people have died and more are missing. This is the second incident in as many days. On wednesday, 50 people died after being pushed off a boat by smugglers fearing arrest. This information is coming from the uns Migration Agency and this was told us. This is the same modus operandi. 150 people this time. Theyre worth your people this time. Theyre worth your people 22 or 23, who were the same age, same profile. But they were trying to dropped in the sea close to the shore. It is may be linked to the fact that maybe they have lost control at the borders and the smugglers are panicking but the reaction was worse. Because instead of preventing them entering theyre basically continued their business by killing people. We think the victims were trying to get to yemen despite the ongoing conflict there, its still seen as a gateway to other gulf states or europe. And other migrant routes remainjust as active. Let me show you this footage. Its from cadiz, in spain it shows a migrant boat arriving at a beach resort there. Holiday makers in their swimsuits are shocked, seeing the migrants running ashore and trying to evade the authorities. Joining me is james copnall, World Service africa editor. I asked him about the yemen story, why yemen was attracting so many migrants. I dont think it is yemen, it is a way of getting to richer gulf countries. It is geography, it is across the water from somalia and closed ethiopian. People have numerous routes to go to places where they think they will get a better life. These people chose to go the short sea trip, though quite a dangerous one, the yemen with the hope of going on other gulf countries where could get a job and live that better life. And the people traffickers, who are basically dumping migrants into the sea, this could have been happening and we havent realised it . Its possible, but there is lots of monitoring of that situation and the un Migration Agency say that this seems to be a new trend. What seems to be happening is that the smugglers get near the coast, they see an smugglers get near the coast, they see an authority figure, they think there is a risk of being arrested, and they put people into the sea. They also say that people seem to be beaten or held at gunpoint whereas in other cases it has been less violent. It does seem to be something of a new dimensional and obviously a worrying one for people trying to make their way across that of water. To afghanistan where people were taken and 230 hostages released after elders and provincial offices struck a deal with the militants who had taken them. We have scenes of several hostages being reunited with theirfamilies. They several hostages being reunited with their families. They are several hostages being reunited with theirfamilies. They are returned several hostages being reunited with their families. They are returned to their families. They are returned to their village here.

Others were angry at the government and Security Forces for failing to protect them. The ones who were killed. The religions have taken my son with them who was about to get married. This is about incompetent officials not being able to provide security. Afghanistan was the president has vowed revenge but left questions u na nswered vowed revenge but left questions unanswered about what this means for afg hanistans wider unanswered about what this means for afghanistans wider fight against insurgents. Unfortunately, we are hearing this from several parts of afghanistan. Several people have been killed intentionally although the taliban are denying it. The local people who spoke to the bbc are saying that a number of civilians were killed, even children and elderly. Tanya barron contradicts that. It is important, the fighting is going in an area which is considered a gateway to the provincial capital of this province. Caliban contradicts that. It is the first time they have gone into this area. The government has been challenged how to retake the province. The people there are saying it is a narrow area and will be challenging for the government to ta ke be challenging for the government to take it back soon. If it is confirmed independently that the taliban and is are cooperating, which in my view is impossible, it would be a big blow for the government. And as far as civilians are concerned, the people are giving horrific pictures from the area. If it is independently confirmed, it would be a disastrous thing and it will force the Afghan Government to do more in the area though the afg ha n do more in the area though the Afghan President has recently claimed that he will take revenge on all the killings on the area. The Attorney General of afghanistan said that the crimes committed in the area while war crimes and those who have done it could be brought to International Court of justice.

It is almost a religion. And it is quite successful as well.

Taking a Vitamin Supplement could cut the number of miscarriages and help prevent Birth Defects. Those were the findings of a Landmark Study from australia. It has in the new england journal of medicine. A deficiency in a key molecule prevents embryos and babys organ is developing in the womb and that could be solved by taking this vitamin. We are talking about b three, a common Dietary Supplement found in foods like. C of i can bring those foods up for you. Those like peanuts, chicken and turkey. This has been hailed by Australias Health minister as an historical medical breakthrough. Here is the lead researcher on the study. We identified that a deficiency in a molecule resulted in babies being born with Birth Defects and resulted in multiple miscarriages. So this means that we have been able to show in some experimental models that we can actually prevent those Birth Defects and miscarriages with vitamin d3. This brings hope to many people who undergo miscarriages and Birth Defects each year that something as simple as a Dietary Supplement might be able to prevent them from having to endure defects and miscarriages. The thing is, some women may and miscarriages. The thing is, some women may not be able to get the full complement of niacin from their foods or even from marty by the mens. So this Research Highlights that there are women at risk of having low fight and levels and that low Vitamin Levels and that predispose them to having babies with Birth Defects. We need to identify those women and which women who even though they have a healthy dietand who even though they have a healthy diet and maybe taking multivitamins, which women have low levels of nad and how much niacin we need to give them to prevent the Birth Defects and the miscarriages.

Danish authorities said that many eggs have been distributed around denmark. Dumped and discarded. This belgian farmer has had to destroy notjust his eggs but his hens as well. The produce contaminated with fipranol, an insecticide which is banned for use in the food chain. But thats where it has ended up on a potentially massive scale. Translation you cannot put your eggs on the market for three months. And so i took the decision to kill the animals because it is really too expensive. The company which came to clean and treat the red lice with a so called organic product really used fipranol. We have all been fooled by the seller. We are all a victim of him. He is not alone. More than 100 farms are affected in the netherlands too, although this one is in the clear. Millions of eggs have now been pulled from Supermarket Shelves on the continent. The reason, fipranol may be popular for getting rid of fleas on pets but it can be dangerous to humans. Here in the uk, we produce our own eggs but also import them. And some of the eggs from affected farm
