Trapped deep underground, the Chilean miners prepare for their first breath of fresh air in 69 days. Plus, the US military suspends its ban on openly gay servicemen and women.

Rhod Sharp brings you the news from around the world.

They've not seen daylight or breathed fresh air for 69 days but, as the Chilean miners prepare for their long awaited freedom, Up All Night correspondents in Chile bring you the nervous wait from the rescue shaft and the carnival atmosphere from a nearby town.

The US military has been forced to suspend its ban on openly gay servicemen and women. A federal judge ruled the current policy "don't ask, don't tell" is unconstitutional. Rhod speaks to the group who brought the case to court.

Plus, a disappointing night for the home nations on the pitch but it's even worse off the pitch in Genoa, where the European Championship qualifier between Italy and Serbia was abandoned after seven minutes because of crowd violence.
