This is not a true statement. Rupert tells us that "one of the hostages seems to be injured", and also shouts "man overboard", meaning that someone has fallen into the sea. He describes the situation as "a bloodbath", meaning that lots of people are getting shot and injured.
This is a correct choice! When we say somebody is "in their thirties", the age bracket they are in is between 30 and 40. It's a good way of avoiding telling someone your real age! If you are 39 and you want it to remain a secret, you say "I am in my thirties" and people may think you're 31 (if you have been moisturizing!).
This is true. Brent says: "Rupert is joining us from Somalia". This means he is reporting directly from Somalia. This is a very common phrase to introduce reporters on live news broadcasts, letting us know their exact location. Example: "Our Royal correspondent is joining us from outside Buckingham Palace where her Majesty is about to get on a horse!"
This is incorrect. Rupert knows exactly where he is. He says, "Somalia is in East Africa". It is Brent who is confused! Brent says, "Rupert, I didn't know Somalia was in Europe..." It must be because he knows Rupert is the "European correspondent". Or it could be because his geography is very bad indeed.
