00:09Here are the top stories at this hour.

00:13Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Bernie Sanders rode a wave of voter frustration with

00:22Sanders swept majorities of men, women, independents and young people in his win over Hillary Clinton.

00:28He faces challenges in the more diverse states that come next on the primary calendar.

00:33Trump, appealing to voters seeking a political outsider, could benefit from the persistent

00:38lack of clarity among the more mainstream Republicans struggling to challenge him.

00:45Russia's foreign minister said Moscow has presented Washington with new proposals to

00:49end Syria's civil war.

00:51Sergei Lavrov said the plan is specific and simple, but did not provide details.

00:57Lavrov is set to meet US Secretary of State John Kerry in Munich.

01:02He shrugged off criticism that Russia had contributed to the collapse of peace talks

01:06in Geneva last week by providing air cover for a Syrian government advance north of Aleppo.

01:12He blamed Turkey, saying it had fuelled the conflict by providing militants with weapons

01:18and supplies and buying oil from them.

01:21Fans with long memories may disagree, but West Ham United manager Slavin Bilic believes

01:26their last gasp extra time win over Liverpool will go down as one of the London club's greatest

01:33triumphs.

01:34Angelo Ogbona's header in the dying seconds of extra time secured a 2-1 victory that sent

01:40West Ham into the fifth round of the FA Cup, where they will face second-tier Blackburn

01:45rovers.

01:47An Indian-American actor and designer, who wasn't allowed to board a flight to New York

01:52from Mexico City after refusing to remove his turban, said he is satisfied with an apology

01:58from the airline.

01:59Waris Ahluwalia said he is now waiting for Aeromexico to implement special training on

02:05how to treat Sikh passengers, for whom the headgear carries deep religious significance.

02:11We are just a few steps away from a lot of hugs, said Ahluwalia.

02:17And finally, the weather.

02:18Today's high across the UAE will be 22 degrees Celsius, dropping to 15 degrees at night.

02:24That's all for now.
