Hello, I'm Nick Miles and in the early hours of Thursday 15th of December, these are our main stories.

The government in Peru has declared a nationwide state of emergency as supporters of the outsted president continue to protest.

The mayor of Istanbul, a prominent opponent of Turkey's president, has been given a jail sentence which would stop him standing in next year's presidential election.

And France have secured their place in the final of the Football World Cup in Qatar. They beat Morocco to Neil and Will Face Argentina on Sunday.

Also in this podcast, a video warning from Japan's police.

And also means that the military will help the police restore control. Of course this will cause some disruption coming up to Christmas as many people will be traveling to visit relatives.
