Amazing work by my team - a must-watch. They barely ate or slept for days to bring this story to light - though their trials are a fraction of the suffering they saw there.

For @BBCPanorama we followed an overnight rescue mission in #Antakya led by Burak Akkurt. It was a relentless effort requiring extreme emotional strength. Full investigation into #Turkey and Syria quake and its immediate aftermath tonight on @BBCOne at 8pm

It’s sadly too easy to feel there’s much wrong in the world. But, taking a leaf from the lovely @RichardEGrant’s fab book, we should all look for that daily ‘Pocketful of Happiness’. This is mine - purest joy, love and happiness. 7 weeks old & we’re ‘chatting’ 💕

Christos Aneste - Happy Easter to those in the Orthodox calendar. Lighting candles, thinking of families who should be eating together tomorrow, not missing loved ones in war.

I didn’t come to Russia to tell bad stories. I didn’t come here to undermine the Russian state. I came here to talk to Russian people, Russian officials and try to understand this country and explain it to other people. BBCs @sarahrainsford

The fuller story of how I was expelled from Russia - & what that says about the current crackdown on free speech & the media in a country I’ve called home for many years. Big thanks to ⁦@mattgodtv⁩ for beautiful 🎥 & producer ⁦@BBCWillVernonbbc.co.uk/news/world-eur…

@TfL What should someone do in a situation like this? What about racism or homophobia? I assume the driver can’t/ won’t get involved.

I’m not Jewish but you shouldn’t have to be to be disgusted by it. I am a woman, and the other truth is that he knew that he was free to intimidate me, with very little chance of anything happening to him.

A man just came and sat next to me and drew swastikas into the steamed up glass on the bus window in front of my face. He laughed when I moved seat. #everydayantisemitism doesn’t seem to be a trending hashtag but it should be.

I always noticed when living in #SouthAfrica the amount of public debate about the state of the roads. Roads and cycle lanes make us feel like civilisation is holding. When they start crumbling, it feels like a warning of greater societal decay.

The fact that I can even remember the state of the roads in different countries is a) extremely geeky but b) a sign of what a difference it makes.

VIDEO: We’ve just returned from the Poland-Belarus border. We found men who feared freezing to death, stranded in the forest. They said border guards on both sides had pushed them back & forth. Europe's newest migrant crisis: With @BrunoBoelpaep bbc.com/news/av/world-…
