rescue workers are trying to find survivors following the devastating mudslides in southern
california.
17 people are known to have died, with more than a dozen still missing.
many of those now affected are the very same people who had to flee last month from some
of the biggest wildfires in the state's history.
the latest extreme weather hit carpinteria, santa barbara and montecito.
from there, our correspondent james cook reports.
in montecito, they are still combing
the ruins, looking for survivors.
but, with every hour that passes, hope fades.
the surge of mud and debris wasjust hope fades.
the surge of mud and debris was just too powerful.
it consumed everything before it, turning homes to matchwood.
consumed everything before it, turning homes to matchwoodm consumed everything before it,
turning homes to matchwood.
it was just a very unexpected explosion of water, rock, cars, trees, metal came in without
any warning, really.
the sky lit up because some buildings had blown up.
the gas mains, it turns out.
so here is all this by coming down, and fire going up, and here is all this rain coming
down and you wonder what is happening?
i mean, it was an incredible experience.
more than 500 firefighters and other rescue teams have been working around the clock,
hoping beyond hope that they can still save lives.
parts of the town are still cut off, but some residents have been returning to inspect the
damage.
the house being gone isjust a house.
it isjust some clothes in a house.
not in a neighbourhood this small, every single name that turns up as someone's dad or neighbour
or teacher.
and that is the worst part.
we are happy for everyone who made it.
the look mudslide did notjust claim lives, could paralyse this pa rt claim lives, could
paralyse this part of california. this is the main motorway along the pacific coast,
the 101 freeway.
the trauma will last much longer.
there is a lot more on our website, including the latest on the scale of the devastation
and the guide to the link between wildfires and mudslides. or of course, you can
download the bbc news app as well.
there has been a third night of anti-government protests in tunisia.
police used teargas against large crowds angry at recent price rises affecting basic goods.
the prime minister has condemned what he called unacceptable violence by protestors, and demonstrators
have levelled the same accusation against the police.
sarah corker reports.
anger over rising prices in tunisia has turned into unrest.
this is tebourba, 20 miles west of the capital, tunis.
young people took to the streets for a third successive night.
one man died in clashes here on monday.
police and troops have been deployed in several cities.
there have been clashes in tunis, too.
demonstrators threw stones and burnt tyres.
riot police responded with tear gas.
translation: it's not the people's fault.
young people have studied and studied, and then are left
unemployed or in a difficult situation.
as far as we're concerned, we have to endure these clashes.
protesters have been accused of using children to loot shops.
so far, more than 200 people have been arrested after what the prime minister described as
unacceptable violence.
translation: every time there is societal friction in tunisia, the vandals come out.
they start destroying things and recruiting small kids.
these people don't serve the interests of tunisia.
these protests started peacefully last week, but public anger has been building since the
government raised the price of petrol and staple items, and introduced new taxes at
the start of the year.
translation: our demands are the following - suspend the 2018 finance law, return to
the original price of goods, and hire one member from every poor family.
the government says its top priority is improving the lives of ordinary tunisians.
but for another night, there is tension and violence, and massive anti-austerity rallies
are planned for friday.

let's brief you on some of the other stories making the news: president trump says washington

youtube has dropped one its most popular stars, logan paul, from its top-tier advertising
streams.
the decision was in response to a recent video posted by the vlogger which showed him and
his friends reacting to finding a dead body in a japanese forest notorious for suicides.
he later apologised.
let's turn to our top business story, the future of britain's huge financial industry
once it leaves the eu next year.
today, uk chancellor philip hammond and brexit secretary david davis are in germany trying
to win support for a favourable post-brexit trade deal, especially when it comes to financial
services.
meanwhile, the prime minister will be hosting the city of london's top bosses, to reassure
them london will remain a leading financial centre post-brexit.
alpesh patel is from praefinium partners.
iimagine you i imagine you have a strong opinion on this one.
i do indeed.
i hope they don't forget the smaller financial services companies in the uk like mine, who
don't have hundreds of millions in assets under management, or billions, but we do employ
people and run a business and hope to become like the massive multinationals.
i hope they don't forget the small ones.
some really surprising statistics on this when i was looking this up.
the average worker contributes 1.5 times more to
the uk economy, in terms of taxes, than the average worker in other industries.
not only that, the financial services industry in the uk is 10% of the uk economy and the
uk's largest exporter and tax generator.
we know it is and incredibly part of the uk economy, for sure.
we subsidise the rest of the country.
i am sure many in manufacturing and elsewhere would demure.
statistically we do.
despite all that, how sure are you that the likes of philip hammond and david davis in
germany will get us some sort of good trade deal or special arrangement for financial
services?
i have actually been out with philip hammond, i was hosting him i have actually been out
with philip hammond, iwas hosting him in india and he is very good and passionate and he
is very good and passionate and determined, flying the flag for the uk. the german press
are saying there will be no special deals for there will be no special deals for the
uk finance sector.
there will be no special deals for the uk finance sectorlj there will be no special
deals for the uk finance sector.
i will tell you the problems i have with the german press, it is not really
depressed, they are not the ones doing the negotiations.
the uk looks more and more like closed shop.
surely if it is win-win, why do they had to add extra tariffs and fees if we are doing
so much good business for europe and vice-versa on financial services?
forget the little bits of other areas, then why is it being so protectionist? it is supposed
to be a free and open market, a transparent market.
why are they being so protectionist to ask tom given that right now, as things stand
today, we are trading freely with them.
so why are they trying to punish us? all right, that isa trying to punish us? all right, that
is a question i will ask our guests in the business briefing.
but for now, thank you very much.
i don't think you need stronger copy. as you can see, he is firing on all cylinders already.
he will be back for the news briefing later.
in the meantime, let's tell you about this story.
police in paris are searching for two members of a gang who stole jewels worth millions
of dollars in an audacious burglary
at the famous ritz hotel.
armed with small axes, the thieves smashed the windows of the luxury hotel in the place
vendome, to gain access to display cases.
three were arrested fleeing the scene.
dan johnson reports.
a large police response outside the paris ritz, after a gang armed with taxes carried
out a violent raid.
it isn't just the christmas taxes carried out a violent raid.
it isn'tjust the christmas lights that sparkle here.
there werejewels isn'tjust the christmas lights that sparkle here.
there were jewels on display to match the wealth of the guest of one of the world's
most exclusive hotels.
the robbers arrived in place vendome on scooters at around 6pm in the evening local time, smashing
windows on the ground floor of the hotel.
it is estimated they took jewels worth 4 floor of the hotel.
it is estimated they tookjewels worth 4 million euros, but police officers interrupted the
raid and the rest in three of the five men.
paris has
seen this before.
in october 2016, us reality tv star kim kardashian had a gun pointed at her head as a gang sold
10 million euros worth of her jewellery.
only gang sold 10 million euros worth of herjewellery.

it is not clear how much was recovered from this latest raid.

the helicopters are waiting.
some tourists, though,
seem quite happy exactly where they are.
translation: since we have arrived yesterday morning, and we are leaving saturday, we don't
feel blocked at all.
but, for communities across the alps, the heavy snow continues to cause problems.
some villages are still cut off.
others are without power.
the biggest worry of all is over avalanches.
tons and tons of snow has fallen, and the weather is warmer than normal, meaning the
snow is loose, wet and heavy, more likely to slip down the mountain.
winter sports fans are being warned to stay only on slopes and paths marked clearly as
safe.
meanwhile, the alpine authorities are working around the clock to clear the snow.
their window of opportunity may be short.
more snow is forecast for thursday.
stay with us on the briefing.

hit their home in syria six years ago.
they've both had operations injordan, where they now live.
caroline hawley has returned to see how they're getting on.
qamar barely remembers the day, six years ago, that changed the course of her life.
she was only three when a shell hit the family home in homs, slamming into the children's
bedroom, setting fire to qamar in her bedclothes.
qamar's hands were so damaged, she needed help to feed and dress herself.
she was so distressed by her appearance, she couldn't look in the mirror.
her sister, rahaf, was also badly burnt, and when we first met the family, neither of the
girls would go out of the house.
but today, they're on the way to school.
it has taken immense strength and courage, and countless operations, to get to where
they are now.
this was the two of them in syria, before the war.
when qamar was four, we watched as she had surgery at a hospital run by the charity medecins
sans frontieres, injordan, where the family fled to for treatment.
two years later, she had to wear this mask to help another skin graft heal. these days,
they spend much more time at school than in hospital.
syrian refugees come here in the afternoons, and the girls love it.
qamar has had to get used to how other children react to her.
their teacher has worked hard to get their classmates to accept them.
she admires oamar's bravery.
her parents worry about the social stigma their daughters will face as they grow up,
that life with their injuries will be harder as young women.
when the children draw for us, qamar's first picture is of her dream house, and then she
draws a mosque.
but rahaf has now been discharged from msf's hospital.
the doctors have done what they can.
qamar is waiting for more surgery.
but, with all the conflict around the middle east, the hospital is inundated with new cases,
and the waiting list is long.
two very brave young girls.
a group of feminist activists in france have criticised the actress catherine deneuve and

good morning.
some hazardous
conditions if you are taking to the roads this evening, we have widespread and dense
patches of fog a ross western areas of the british isles and it might have an effect
on flights.
let's head in for a closer look.
a chilly start in scotland with a widespread frost and fog across central and southern
areas, very murky in northern ireland and northern england as well, fog forming overnight
in the west and the legacy of cloud and murk from a weather front close by yesterday.
and dense patches of fog across wales, the midlands, through the west cou ntry wales,
the midlands, through the west country and across the south-east too with extra of the
re m na nts of south-east too with extra of the remnants of the weather front bringing
some outbreaks of rain and patches of fog that has fallen overnight as well.
either way you look it it is a gloomy start to thursday and heading onto the roads it
could be hazardous as well.
through the morning, give it till
ten or 11 o'clock, we should see the mist and ten or 11 o'clock, we should see the mistand
murk ten or 11 o'clock, we should see the mist and murk wrote to lifting eventually
into cloud and that it will break to allow sunshine through over the high ground of the
south-west of wales and scotland looks like it soon see a decent afternoon.
and temperatures are just above freezing, so it is quite chilly feeling, even in the
east with all the cloud, which will still be lingering. and overnight into friday, it
is a replay, basically, the cloud will be thick once again with patches of mist and
fog and to the north and west you could see a patch of frost developing.
a bit more of a breeze in the west. for northern ireland visibility problems are slightly more
limited.
and things will brighten up fast on friday across wales and the south-west.
maybe a bit of brightness up towards the wash on friday as well but overall quite a gloomy
picture for many of us with highs ofjust gloomy picture for many of us with highs of just
six gloomy picture for many of us with highs ofjust six or seven.
quite a static picture for us.
you can see
not much happening on the weather chart for thursday and friday.
further south into europe and it is looking lively in the med, static weather over france
and germany could cause problems with lingering fog and only really on friday when things
start to move, this weather front bringing heavy rain for a time into northern ireland.
then it gets stuck and doesn't really move east quickly for the weekend.
so for the weekend we should see largely dry weather but the front will leave a legacy
of cloud, and a breezy story too.
