A cyber attack on the German parliament uncovered a month ago is still stealing data from Bundestag computers, report German media.

Cleaning up after the attack could cost millions of euros and involve replacing or wiping computers, said Sueddeutsche Zeitung.
Federal investigators are looking into the scope of the attack to see how much data has been taken.
It is still not clear who carried out the cyber-attack.
The attack on the lower house of the German parliament came to light in May.
It involved attackers using malicious programs to infect many of the 20,000 machines used by politicians, support staff and civil servants that sit on the Parlakom network.
German newspaper Der Spiegel quoted a parliamentary source who said the malware was still "active" and stealing data from infected machines.
A Russian intelligence agency has been blamed for the attack, but Moscow has not commented on the allegations.
One report suggested that the federal office for computer security (BSI) had said that cleaning up the infection could cost millions of euros and involve replacing all the computers.
However, a later report said no decision had yet been taken on how many machines needed to be replaced or whether they could be disinfected another way.
And an investigation was looking into whether the attack could be removed by simply replacing servers taken over by attackers.
Conclusions from a secret report into the attack and its scope is expected to be delivered to politicians on 11 June.
"This is the biggest cyber-attack on the Bund, on the German parliament," Bernhard Kaster, secretary of the Christian Democratic Union and Christian Social Union political bloc, told Sueddeutsche Zeitung.


The British Museum has carried out scans on eight Egyptian mummies, revealing amazing details about the people inside the caskets.

Never before has anyone seen mummy hair, muscles and bone in such detail.
Each mummy was put into a special CT scanner (an X-ray machine) to investigate the mummies layer by layer, building up a 3D picture of each one.
The study's revealed many details about who these people were, how they lived and how they died.
By peeling away each layer museum staff could see the face of the person underneath the bandages and for the first time to tell the age of the mummies, what they ate, and the kinds of diseases they suffered from.
John Taylor, from the British Museum said he was "stunned" when he saw the images.
"It's as if you switched a light on in a dark room and things jump out with a clarity where you are able to find out what the life experiences of these people really were," he said.
The researchers were able to see muscles and even arteries in the ancient bodies.
They even saw that some arteries seemed clogged with fatty deposits, which could mean that these particular people ate rich fatty foods and maybe died of heart disease.
After peeling away the muscle, researchers were able to see the skeletons in amazing detail.
They were able to guess the age of the individual mummies from their pelvis and their teeth.
Many of them had bad teeth with signs of abscesses (infections), which would have been very painful to live with.
One scan shows a spatula (shown in green) left inside the mummy's skull.
The tool would have been used to pull the brain out through the nostrils during the embalming process.
But in this case a large chunk of brain (shown in blue) was left inside, along with the tool, possibly because the person carrying out the embalming did a bad job.
Researchers also discovered that the mummies lived between 3,500BC and 700AD.
All of them lived in the Nile Valley in Egypt.


A fire that broke out on a car ferry as it crossed the Solent may have started in an air conditioning unit, operator Wightlink has said.

The blaze started on the deck of the vessel St Faith during the 09:00 GMT sailing from Portsmouth to Fishbourne on the Isle of Wight.
The firm said the fire, in a "non-passenger area", was extinguished by the crew within minutes and none of the 65 people onboard were injured.
Ferry services have returned to normal.
The St Faith has been taken out of service while an inquiry takes place.
A lorry driver who was on board said: "I could smell the smoke, the stewards moved us downstairs, but there was no panic.
"There was quite a jolt as the ferry docked and there were fire engines waiting."
Wightlink said emergency services met the vessel "as a precaution" when it docked on the island and passengers and vehicles disembarked as usual.
There were 52 passengers and 13 crew onboard.
Operations director Elwyn Dop said early indications showed the fire may have started in an air conditioning unit close to the bridge.
"We had 13 crew members dealing with the incident.  They are well exercised in their duties and they used those skills to deal with the situation today. The passengers were looked after calmly in the lounge," he said.


Sir David Attenborough will pay tribute to the Queen to celebrate her official birthday by reading an address by Paddington creator Michael Bond.

The reading, part of celebrations for Her Majesty turning 90, will be at St Paul's Cathedral on Friday.
Bond has written a reflection on the passing of the years for the service, which also includes an anthem by Judith Weir, Master of the Queen's Music.
Both Sir David and Bond also turned 90 this year.
Weir's anthem will be sung by St Paul's Cathedral Choir and its text is the poem I love all beauteous things, by Robert Bridges, who was poet laureate in the year the Queen was born.
Pianist Martin James Bartlett - 2014's BBC Young Musician of the Year - will play Burlesque by Arnold Bax, who was George VI's last Master of the King's Music and the Queen's first Master of the Queen's Music.
Organ music before the service will include Flourish for an Occasion by William Harris, who taught the Queen how to play the piano.
Guests at the service include the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince of Wales, Duchess of Cornwall, Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince Harry and Prime Minister David Cameron.
Mr Cameron will read from the New Testament and the Archbishop of Canterbury will preach the sermon, which will be heard by other guests including politicians past and present, diplomats and governors general.
Broadcaster Clare Balding, who has an association with the Queen as three generations of her family have trained horses for her, will also be present.
It will be a national service of thanksgiving, part of a number of formal celebrations being held in June.
On 11 June - the Queen's official birthday - the annual Trooping the Colour will be held on Horse Guards Parade.
The birthday parade will end with members of the Royal Family making their annual appearance on the balcony of Buckingham Palace, where they will see a flypast by the Royal Air Force.
The following day, the Queen will then host a street party for some 10,000 people at the Patron's Lunch - a celebration of her patronage of more than 600 organisations in the UK and around the Commonwealth.


A man has appeared in court accused of attempting to murder a pregnant woman who was stabbed in a street.

Natalie Querioz, 40, was stabbed in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, on Friday. Her daughter was delivered hours later.
Babur Karamat Raja, 41, is charged with two counts of attempted murder, attempted child destruction, assault and possession of a knife.
He was remanded in custody at Birmingham Magistrates Court.
Updates on this story and more in Birmingham and the Black Country.
Ms Querioz remains in a stable condition in hospital, police said.
The court heard businessman Mr Raja, of Hollyfield Road in Sutton Coldfield, and Ms Queiroz, are known to one another.
He is also charged with the attempted murder of John Mitchell and assaulting Anthony Smith.
Mr Raja is due to appear at Birmingham Crown Court via video link on 6 April.


The Church of Scotland is preparing to take a significant step towards same-sex marriage.

The Kirk's General Assembly - gathering in Edinburgh - will be asked to approve more work on how such weddings could take place in church.
Equal marriage remains a divisive issue within the church.
Since 2014, Scotland has allowed same-sex couples to marry but individual church traditions can each decide whether to participate.
A report on the issue prepared for the General Assembly invited the church to take stock of its history of discrimination against gay people and to apologise "individually and corporately".
Moderator Designate the Reverend Dr Derek Browning said: "On Thursday afternoon the theological forum will be bringing a report to the General Assembly, and this year what they're asking to do is for the assembly, first of all, to consider making an apology to the gay community for things that have have been said in the past and the assembly will have to make up its mind on that.
"But also it's going to be asking our legal questions committee to see what the issues are round about allowing ministers to perform same sex marriage if they choose to do so, and equally for safeguards for those who, for conscience sake, feel that this is not something they can do."
Dr Browning added: "Over the years the assembly has been very well aware that on both sides of the debate, very strong things have been said and therefore an apology certainly within the Christian context is always important because there's been hurt caused on both sides of the debate.
"Hopefully we're in a position to move forwards, but that will be for the General Assembly to make its mind up on, on Thursday."
At the time of the report's publication, the Reverend Scott Rennie, who supports equal marriage, said: "Loving marriages, whether they are gay or straight, can make for a good and happy life.
"Christ's love for us, his people, is reflected in loving relationships. Marriage is something to be celebrated.
"I look forward to the day when I am able to conduct weddings for all couples, gay or straight, in the name of God."
Many traditionalists within the Church of Scotland, however, are firmly opposed to it permitting same-sex weddings.
The Reverend Mike Goss said: "Same-sex relationships are not what God has planned for us as human beings. We are all messed up in different ways in our lives.
"I don't see that people in straight-sex relationships have got it all sorted. We know too many of them have gone wrong as well.
"But we don't bless that which is wrong and that has got to be key in terms of the Gospel."
The Scottish Episcopal Church, part of Anglican tradition, is expected to approve same-sex marriage when its General Synod meets later this year.
Such a move would make it the first major church in the UK to marry gay and lesbian couples in church.
The Church of England will not conduct gay marriages, or allow clergy to be in a same-sex marriage.
The Scottish move could intensify the split within the wider Anglican Communion of 85 million Christians.
Last year the Communion sanctioned the US Episcopal Church when it decided to allow gay marriage in church.


The Cuban government has launched a long-term plan to protect shark populations around its shores.

The plan, devised together with a US environmental group, will oblige fishermen to record and limit shark catches as well as creating new protected fishing areas.
It's thought nearly 20% of the world's 500 shark species swim in Cuban waters.
Shark populations have been in rapid decline due to overfishing, demand for shark fins and accidental catches.
Cuba already bans harvesting sharks just for their fins.
Cuba's plan was announced after two years of work with the US-based Environmental Defense Fund (EDF).
Its Cuba programme director, Daniel Whittle, said shark populations in Cuba were sustained by relatively healthy coral reefs.
"Cuba is considered the crown jewel of the Caribbean, principally because of its incredible coral reef ecosystems, its mangroves, its seagrasses," he said.
The EDF says protecting shark populations can also be good business, as ecotourism is growing and a country's marine resources are an important asset.
Cuba is now planning a regional plan for shark conservation.


Islamic State militants may have fired a chemical rocket at American troops based in Iraq, the US military says.

A rocket that landed within several hundred yards of US troops at Qayyarah air base near Mosul may have contained mustard agent, it said.
No-one was hurt in Tuesday's attack on the base, which is home to several hundred US soldiers.
If confirmed, it would be the first chemical weapons attack on coalition forces in Iraq.
Troops stationed at the base are equipped to deal with chemical attacks.
"On September 20, mid-afternoon Iraq time, the Iraqi air base at [Qayyarah] West came under attack by indirect fire," the Pentagon said in a statement.
"An initial test of the remnants of the weapon used returned a positive test for a mustard agent.  The device, likely a rocket or mortar, was imprecise and crude."
Following decontamination, no service personnel showed signs or symptoms of mustard exposure, the Pentagon said.
"This attack has not impacted our mission in any way, nor have we changed our security posture in the area around [the base]," the statement added.
"We train and equip ourselves and our partners for just this type of eventuality."
There was no immediate confirmation of the attack in Baghdad, Quentin Sommerville, the BBC's Middle East correspondent, reports.
However, there have been 20 documented cases of chemical weapons being used against Kurdish fighters in Iraq and a quarter of those cases involved mustard gas.
IS has long been suspected of making and using crude chemical weapons in Iraq and Syria, where it also controls territory.
Mustard agent in sufficient quantities can maim or kill by damaging skin, eyes and airways.
Mosul, Iraq's second largest city, has been under IS control for the past two years and the battle to retake it is expected to begin in the coming weeks.
US troops are providing assistance to local forces as they prepare for the offensive.


It's a Welsh rugby tradition: a fist-pumping, chest-beating anthem.

Classic Tom Jones track Delilah reverberates around Cardiff's Millennium Stadium before every rugby union international.
But now there are calls for it to be played no more.
Veteran folk singer and politician Dafydd Iwan says the ballad should be replaced because it tells the story of the brutal murder of a woman who's cheated on her partner.
Quoted in several national newspapers, Mr Iwan said: "It is a song about murder and it does tend to trivialise the idea of murdering a woman and it's a pity these words now have been elevated to the status of a secondary national anthem."
The Welsh Rugby Union, quoted by the South Wales Evening Post, say they "condemn violence against women," and will "listen to any strong public debate on the issue of censoring the use of Delilah."
So will Mr Iwan's comments force other nations to reconsider their pre-match song choice?
Earlier this year, La Marseillaise, the French anthem, was labelled "racist and xenophobic" by French actor Lambert Wilson.
Its critics argue the song, which was written by Rouget de Lisle during the French Revolution, doesn't reflect the modern, multicultural France.
Les Bleus' international football players have often been slated for not singing along heartily prior to games.
There were even calls from France's far-right National Front party to sack Algerian-born striker Karim Benzema after he said he wouldn't to sing the anthem.
Flower of Scotland has long roused the national football and rugby teams to victory or comforted them in defeat.
The folk song was played when Scottish gold medallists stepped up to the winner's podium during the Commonwealth Games and was used by supporters of the "Yes" campaign during the Scottish Referendum.
It was written by Roy Williamson, whose band-mate Ronnie Browne still sings it at Murrayfield before rugby internationals.
"It's based on Battle of Bannockburn and the spirit of the men who fought and won our independence from a tyrannical English king," he said.
England's adopted anthem is actually all about slavery.
First recorded in America in the early 20th century, Swing Low, Sweet Chariot refers to the underground railroad that slaves used to escape to the north of the country.
The song has since been covered by iconic artists like Louis Armstrong, Etta James and Johnny Cash.
It was also used during the 1960s Civil Rights movement and was performed by American folk singer Joan Baez during the legendary 1969 Woodstock festival.

For many people, constantly on the hunt for a striking image to post on Facebook or Instagram, reaching the top of a mountain overlooking the clouds might provide the perfect shot.

And if you're a Playboy model, with nearly 300,000 followers, why not quickly drop your kit and step right into that shot - butt naked.
That is what happened when Jaylene Cook climbed New Zealand's Mount Taranaki.
However local Maori say the move was culturally utterly insensitive.
The top of the volcano is sacred for Maori.
"It's like someone went into St Peter's Basilica in the Vatican and took a nude photo," Dennis Ngawhare, a spokesperson for the local Maori tribe, told the BBC.
"It's a sacred place and something like this is just very inappropriate."
The picture of Ms Cook, herself from New Zealand, was taken when she climbed the mountain a few days ago with her partner.
Posted on her popular Instagram account, the picture of her gazing into the distance from the 2,518m peak has clocked up nearly 10,000 likes.
"People might say it's just rocks and earth so how can you disrespect it?" says Mr Ngawhare.
But for the local Maori, the volcano is considered the burial ground of the tribe's ancestor and is itself seen as an ancestor.
Traditionally, even just climbing to the top of the peak is inappropriate and only very rarely done for ceremonial purpose.
Since the country was colonised by the British, the local tribe often had very little say regarding the mountain - which was named Mount Egmont by Captain Cook - and today accept that tourists want to climb the beautiful volcano.
"It's only recently that we can have some input on what goes on at the mountain," the local Maori spokesman explains.
"We simply ask people to please be respectful. This latest case is just another really annoying example where someone obviously didn't know how to behave here."
Mayor of the local Stratford district, Neil Volzke, agrees the move was culturally insensitive.
"I don't think the picture itself is offensive or obscene - it is just inappropriate to take on top of Mount Taranaki because it is a place with great deal of importance for the Maori community," he told the BBC.
When Ms Cook's nude photo began to draw criticism, she defended herself - saying she did research before and thought taking the picture was not offensive.
But local Maori were left somewhat puzzled.
"It's a clash between Western assumptions and indigenous values and beliefs," Mr Ngaware says.
Previous incidents on Taranaki have also outraged the local Maori community, including a group of hikers taking a barbecue to the peak for a summit grilling session, and people leaving graffiti on the mountain.
"It's a place that should be treated with the utmost respect at all times," insists Mr Volzke.
This is not the first time that a nude picture on a mountain has drawn condemnation from local communities.
In June 2015, a group of Western tourists climbing Mount Kinabalu in Malaysia caused massive outrage and a subsequent deadly earthquake was blamed on their disrespect towards the sacred mountain.
It was only after court proceedings, a few days in prison and a financial penalty, that the tourists were allowed to leave Malaysia.


(Close): There was no clear driver behind Wall Street's somewhat mixed performance on Wednesday.

The Dow Jones was down at 20,659.32, a fall of 42.18 points or 0.20%.
The S&P 500 gained 2.56 points or 0.11% to hit 2,361.13 while the Nasdaq put on 22.41 points or 0.38% to 5,897.55.
Market watchers said sentiment was influenced by uncertainty over government tax reforms, the pace of US interest rate rises and the formal start of the UK's Brexit process.
On the currency markets the dollar was up by 0.04% against the pound at Â£0.8038 and it was up by 0.40% against the euro at 0.9288 euros.
The dollar was helped by remarks about interest rate rises made by some Federal Reserve officials.
The US central bank or Federal Reserve System is made up of 12 Federal Reserve Banks around the country.
Chicago Fed President Charles Evans said he wants to see further interest rate hikes this year, while Boston Fed President Eric Rosengren said the Fed should raise rates three more times in 2017.
But while currency markets appeared to welcome the prospect of rate rises, investors in stocks and shares were apparently unmoved.
"The market seems to be unfazed by the fact that the Fed is looking to be somewhat aggressive in raising rates," said Paul Nolte, portfolio manager at Kingsview Asset Management in Chicago.
Oil was also higher. Brent Crude was 1.9% ahead at $52.30 while West Texas Intermediate was up by 2.2% at $49.42.
Prices rose after US gasoline stockpiles dropped sharply last week, while crude oil inventories grew less than anticipated.


Two people riding on a motorcycle were killed in a crash on the A85 near Crianlarich in Stirlingshire.

Police were called to the scene of the crash at 16:20 on Wednesday.
The road was closed in both directions between the A82 junction in Crianlarich and the A827 road to Killin.
Another motorcyclist died in a crash on the same road in Argyll earlier in the day.


French bank Societe Generale has said it will boost its financial safety net as it reported earnings which beat analysts' forecasts.

The bank will plough more profit into its capital base - the buffer it keeps to absorb surprise losses.
It is now targeting a tier-1 capital ratio of 11% by the end of 2016, having already beaten its current 10% target.
SocGen reported second-quarter net income of €1.35bn ($1.5bn; £943m) and revenue of €6.87bn.
Analysts had estimated net income of €969m and revenue of €6.13bn.
France's second-biggest listed lender said it planned to save another €850m in costs by 2017 on top of its annual target this year of €900m.
Following in the footsteps of other large banks, it set aside €200m against potential litigation.
Its French retail bank's revenue rose 4.2% as the economy improved, while investment banking sales advanced by 16.6%, helped out by a weak euro and stronger demand for share deals as stock markets rally.
SocGen shares jumped 7% in early trading in Paris.


A 20-bed children's ward at the Ulster Hospital has been closed for almost a month due to staff sickness levels, the BBC understands.

Management at the South Eastern Trust closed the ward on Friday 11 November.
The Maynard Sinclair Ward is a paediatric medical ward that works with children up to 14 years of age.
The South Eastern Trust said the situation was being monitored and the ward would re-open once appropriate staffing levels were achieved.
David Robinson uses the ward with his nine-year-old daughter Leah and told the BBC's Good Morning Ulster programme that they got caught up in the closure.
"Leah has an assortment of issues, she has cerebral palsy, severe epilepsy, she is in a wheelchair, she has to be peg fed and has a number of serious allergies," he said.
"Since she was five weeks old we have had constant admittances to the Maynard Sinclair Ward.
"The nurses there are like an extended family to Leah, they know her really well and understand her condition."
Leah has direct admittance to the ward whenever she needs it due to her complex condition, but last month, when she had to be rushed in, the family were told she would have to go through A&E as there were not enough staff to manage the ward.
She was in A&E for five hours, but her condition deteriorated and she had to be transferred to the intensive care unit at the Royal Victoria Hospital in Belfast.
Leah had to stay there for three weeks before being discharged on Friday.
Mr Robinson said he was surprised to hear the ward was still closed.
"I called up into the ward to basically find empty beds and no staff," he said.
In a statement the South Eastern Trust confirmed that the ward had to be closed last month.
"Due to staff sickness levels and to ensure patient safety, a decision was made with senior management and clinicians within the South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust on Friday 11 November 2016 to temporarily relocate all paediatric admissions from Maynard Sinclair to Craig Ward in the Ulster Hospital," said the trust.
"The trust will continue to monitor sickness levels on a daily basis and Maynard Sinclair Ward will be reopened as soon as appropriate staffing levels can be achieved.
"Staff within this clinical area continue to provide a high standard of nursing care to all children and young people with the full support of their managers and the trust."
MLA Robbie Butler, who sits on Stormont's health committee for the Ulster Unionist Party, said he would be asking Health Minister Michelle O'Neill to urgently explain the situation.
"I am disappointed that this is the first time that the health committee are hearing about a major ward being closed," he said.
"This demonstrates the lack of flexibility within the system to be able to respond to staff shortages due to sickness."


Apple's iOS 11 mobile operating system will not be available for the iPhone 5 and 5C or the iPad 4 when it is released in the autumn.

It means those with the older devices will no longer receive software or security updates.
The iPhone 5S and newer devices will receive the upgrade but some older apps will no longer work afterwards.
The news is the result of Apple's decision to end support for devices and apps using 32-bit processors.
Apple has been making devices with 64-bit processors rather than 32-bit processors since 2013, when it introduced them with the iPhone 5S and the iPad Air.
Apps that only run in 32-bit will not show up in search results in the new version of the App Store, or be available from the Purchased tab if they have been downloaded previously.
A 64-bit processor can handle vastly more data at once - four billion times as much - as a 32-bit processor, which can help make it faster in use.
"Apple has been warning of this migration to its 64-bit hardware for a number of years, but this news will still undoubtedly blindside a number of its customers, " Ernest Doku, a telecoms expert at uSwitch.com told the BBC.
"Most apps from the last four years or so should be compatible, unless they haven't been updated since 2015."
When Apple released iOS 10.1 in October 2016, users trying to open a 32-bit app on an updated device would receive a warning message telling them that it may slow down their iPhone.
The update to iOS 10.3 included a tool to detect apps that cannot run in 64-bit mode.
Affected apps will be listed under Settings > General > About > Applications > App Compatibility.
All new apps and updates to existing apps have had to support 64-bit since June 2015, so any that have been updated in the past two years should be unaffected.
But some popular games and educational apps have not been updated since the 64-bit requirement was introduced.
They include titles from Fisher Price and WeeWorld, creators of the WeeMe avatar app.
Apple is also starting to phase out 32-bit support for the Mac, telling developers at WWDC that Mac OS High Sierra would be the last to have 32-bit capability "without compromises".
From June 2018, all new apps submitted to the Mac app store will need to support 64-bit, and from June 2018 updates to existing apps must also be 64-bit compatible.


Agencies missed several chances to protect a girl who died after being fed drugs by her mother, a serious case review has found.

Poppy Widdison, 4, collapsed in Grimsby and later died in 2013. Michala Pyke and her ex-partner John Rytting were both found guilty of child cruelty.
The review found council services did not know the extent to which "she was exposed to risk and harm" daily.
North East Lincolnshire Council said it fully accepted the review's findings.
More on this and other North East Lincolnshire stories
A report, published by the North East Lincolnshire Safeguarding Children Board (LSCB), said Pyke "managed to mislead professionals with apparent ease".
During the trial, the court heard Pyke and Rytting, who was not Poppy's father, encouraged her to eat sedatives because they felt she was an inconvenience to their relationship.
A post-mortem examination could not establish a cause of death, but toxicology tests found she had ingested significant amounts of heroin and methadone for a period of between two and six months before her death, the jury heard.
After her birth, Poppy was due to be taken into the care of her paternal grandparents due to agency concerns, but "her legal status remained unchanged" and Pyke and Poppy's father retained parental responsibility.
The report said no "parenting assessments" were completed at this time, with no "multi-agency analysis" of the risks involved.
A "loose approach" was seen in terms of assessments, meaning her parents were able to "hide the negatives" from agencies.
The review found Pyke and Rytting both had a long history of substance abuse, with agencies unaware they were in a relationship and living together until Poppy's death.
The pair are due to be sentenced at Hull Crown Court on Monday.
Rob Mayall, independent chair of LSCB, said: "Significant changes have taken place across NEL [since 2013] and much of the learning and many of the recommendations cited in this review have already been implemented."
A spokesman for the NSPCC charity said: "It is deeply worrying that this review has highlighted ineffective management within children's social care."


Glasgow City unseated Hibernian at the top of the Scottish Women's Premier League with a 2-1 win at Ainslie Park.

Noelle Murray and Hayley Lauder both scored in a dominant first half for the Scottish champions.
Rachael Small brought Hibs back into it, but despite late pressure they could not find a second.
Elsewhere, third-placed Spartans scored late to draw 1-1 with Celtic, Rangers beat Hamilton 4-0, with Aberdeen and Stirling University finishing goalless.
The win for City moves Scott Booth's side one point above Hibs at the top of the table as they chase an 11th league title in a row.
Booth said afterwards his team did not arrive in Edinburgh with a point to prove despite the critics preparing to round on them.
Abi Harrison's goal deep into extra-time put Hibs into the SWPL Cup final at the expense of City seven days ago.
They returned to the scene of the triumph in the unusual position of being underdogs to retain their league title.
It was more than enough motivation, and they set to their task early and efficiently, chasing and harrying Hibs all over the park.
It was no surprise when they took the lead after 19 minutes. Murray got away from Kirsty Smith before finding the net with a beautiful lob from the edge of the box that sailed over goalkeeper Jenna Fife.
Lauder saw a shot tipped over the bar after 23 minutes, but two minutes later she was not to be denied when she angled a low shot inside the near post.
Hibs looked shell-shocked. They had conceded just three goals in seven games, yet they had now shipped two in 25 minutes. And it should have been 3-0 on the half-hour mark.
Murray robbed Siobhan Hunter in possession and raced clear, but Fife managed to stick a leg out and deflect the shot wide.
It had been a first half where nothing much had gone right for Hibs, but after Murray volleyed wide eight minutes into the second period, they began to look more like themselves.
When Katey Turner's effort was blocked, and City struggled to clear their lines, Small pounced and finished low into the corner.
City still had chances to increase their lead. Lauder gave the goalkeeper an easy save with a weak shot from inside the area, then Abbi Grant should have buried a header when she was left unmarked at a Leanne Ross free-kick, but failed to hit the target.
That gave Hibs encouragement and when Harrison laid the ball off to Lucy Graham, only a brilliant save from Lee Alexander prevented the equaliser, as she tipped the shot over the bar.
Hibs pushed for a leveller, but Small's blocked back-post header was as close as they came.
City head coach Booth said he asked his side to be just "a little bit better" than they had been in the cup defeat by Hibs, and felt they answered his call.
"It was good to see us get past losing late goals, because that was a big hurdle," Booth said.
"Credit to the girls because the whole thing about today was to come here and go top of the league, and forget about the cup. Just keep it simple, win and go top. I asked them to do that and they've gone and done it.
"The games have been so ridiculously tight that we've lost. There's been nothing in it. I told them if we can all improve just a little bit it's going to be enough and that's the thing they tried really hard to do today and I'm proud of that."

Edinburgh and Scotland lock forward Grant Gilchrist has undergone groin surgery.

The 25-year-old picked up the injury during the World Cup and is now a doubt for the Six Nations.
Gilchrist was named Scotland captain ahead of last year's November Tests but soon suffered an arm injury which ruled him out for the rest of the season.
And his World Cup ended during Scotland's second game, when he was injured against the United States.
"Further specialist opinion revealed some damage to soft tissue structures which had not previously been clinically evident," said a statement from Edinburgh.
"Following best advice from the specialist, it was decided that surgery would be the most appropriate course and this has already taken place."
Gilchrist, capped 12 times, has spent his entire professional career with Edinburgh.


George Michael's family has been "touched beyond words" by an "outpouring of love" for the late star, his publicist has said.

Fans have been gathering outside the singer's London and Oxfordshire homes following his death on Christmas Day.
Amid the tributes, tales of his philanthropy have emerged - including how he funded a couple's IVF treatment.
The 53-year-old's publicist thanked "those who, rightly, have chosen to celebrate his life and legacy."
Michael secretly paid £15,000 for a stranger's IVF treatment, former Deal or No Deal producer Richard Osman revealed.
Osman, who now co-presents Pointless, tweeted: "A woman on 'Deal Or No Deal' told us she needed £15k for IVF treatment.
"George Michael secretly phoned the next day and gave her the £15k."
There was "no more fitting tribute than the many, many kind words that have been said", Michael's publicist said.
Other stories of the star's benevolence, including a £50,000 Sport Relief donation, have emerged on social media.
In a string of tweets celebrating the singer's music and humour, comedian and author David Walliams said the star had supported his 2006 cross-Channel swim to the tune of £50,000.
The woman who received IVF treatment was later named as Lynette Gillard, 38, from Bolton, whose partner Steve Davies had appeared on Deal or No Deal in 2008.
She told the Telegraph: "For many years I wondered who would have been so generous and now I know. What more can I say other than 'Thank you George'."
At the time, Mr Davies had told the Manchester Evening News: "Thank you is not enough. It restores your faith in humankind.
"All the bad news you read about and then something like this happens."
Michael's donations ranged in scope from major charities and appeals to individual acts of kindness.
The proceeds from sales of Don't Let the Sun Go Down On Me, his 1991 live duet with Sir Elton John, were donated to HIV and children's charities, including the Terence Higgins Trust.
It tweeted: "Thank you to George Michael for all he did for the LGBT community and to educate about HIV. RIP George."
Wham! royalties from Last Christmas went to Ethiopian famine relief efforts, while the founder of the children's helpline charity Childline, Dame Esther Rantzen, said Michael had donated royalties from the song Jesus to a Child to the cause.
"He really wanted to keep his help secret, it was an intensely personal gift," Dame Esther told BBC News.
"It meant we could answer more children."
She said Michael, who donated about £2m to Childline over the years, "completely understood" the importance of helping children.
Children's charities were also at the fore when he donated each year to Capital Radio's appeal.
Former presenter Mick Brown tweeted: "Every Easter at Capital when I was on air with Chris Tarrant for help a London child, George would call in at 3.30pm with a £100,000 donation."
The star's mother died of cancer in 1997 and in 2006 he played a free concert at the Roundhouse in Camden, north London, for NHS nurses to thank them for their care.
He also gave his time to Macmillan Cancer Support, as one of their ambassadors.
Alongside major charities, individuals on Twitter shared their accounts of his kindness.
Journalist Sali Hughes said: "I wrote in a piece ages ago about a celeb I'd worked with tipping a barmaid £5k because she was a student nurse in debt. Was George Michael."
And Emilyne Mondo said he had worked anonymously at a homeless shelter where she volunteered.
Michael's partner Fadi Fawaz, says he found the singer dead when he went to his home in Goring on Christmas Day.
He told the Telegraph: "We were supposed to be going for Christmas lunch.
"I went round there to wake him up and he was just gone, lying peacefully in bed. We don't know what happened yet.
"George was looking forward to Christmas, and so was I. Now everything is ruined.
"I want people to remember him the way he was - he was a beautiful person."
Michael's music has been climbing the charts since his death.
On iTunes, Ladies & Gentlemen became the number one album and Careless Whisper went to 12 in the singles chart.


Salomon Rondon scored the only goal as West Brom earned their first league win in six against a luckless Everton.

The visitors netted against the run of play as Rondon chested in from close range after Jonas Olsson's flick on.
The home side looked to get back into the match and hit the post twice in the first half through Ross Barkley's curled shot and Tom Cleverley's cross.
Gareth Barry twice came close for Everton in the second half, as West Brom's Chris Brunt shot narrowly wide.

Relive Everton's loss at home to West Brom
All the reaction to Saturday's games
Having won their past two in the Premier League before this game, there was optimism around Goodison Park that Everton may be in with a shout for a Europa League spot, especially after seeing fifth-placed Manchester United lose.
But the Toffees were wasteful against West Brom, chalking up 34 shots in the match without managing to find the net. Only six of those were on target and they have now lost six games at home in the league.
Having had 76% possession, they could count themselves unlucky when striking the woodwork twice, but top scorer Romelu Lukaku failed to add to his 16 goals in the top flight, being well shackled by the visitor's defence.
Barkley tried to exert his influence but with the opposition back line sitting deep, the England international was made to shoot from long range.
There were a smattering of boos from the home supporters at the final whistle, frustrated that their side failed to build on their recent good form and dropping to 10th in the table.
Tony Pulis's side went into the game on the back of a poor run which had seen them looking over their shoulder at the relegation zone, but they did manage to scrape past Peterborough on penalties in the fourth round of the FA Cup in their last game.
A disciplined display against wave after wave of Everton attacks saw them pick up three points and climb up to 13th in the league, eight points above the drop zone.
Centre-back Jonas Olsson was the bedrock on which their clean sheet was based, thwarting the Merseysiders throughout the game. The Swede made a match-high 17 clearances and six blocks.
Having gone three of their past four games without a shot on target, they needed just one in this match, as Rondon's opportunistic effort from the goalline in the 14th minute gave them victory.
Everton boss Roberto Martinez: "We didn't do anything wrong. Their one shot on target ends up in the back of the net.
"The effort and the way that we play the game I couldn't fault. It is one of those moments in football sometimes that are difficult to explain."
"We have been very strong away from home and the points we have achieved is outstanding but we should base our success on making Goodison Park a fortress."

West Brom boss Tony Pulis: "Everton are a top four or five team. The depth of quality within the club is fantastic, they had a great performance to beat Stoke last week and to come here and put in that performance is fantastic.
"We played Everton at the beginning of the season and we were 2-0 up and they scored three late goals. We were distraught, so it is nice to come here and get one back on them."
Both sides are in FA Cup fifth-round action next Saturday. Everton travel to face Bournemouth (kick-off 17:15 GMT), while West Brom are at Championship side Reading (15:00).

The US Senate has confirmed right-winger David Friedman as America's next ambassador to Israel.

He was approved in a 52-46 vote in the Republican-run chamber, despite opposition from the Democrats.
Mr Friedman, who was once Donald Trump's bankruptcy lawyer, is critical of the US goal of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
He also supports Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank, and has backed moving the US embassy to Jerusalem.
The UN does not recognise Jerusalem as Israel's capital, and the US embassy has been located in Tel Aviv for decades.
The Palestinians want East Jerusalem as the capital of their promised future state - but Israel claims the entire city as its undivided capital.
During his confirmation hearing in February Mr Friedman, who was nominated by President Trump, apologised to lawmakers for his past harsh language and pledged to be "respectful and measured" if confirmed.
The 58-year-old advised Mr Trump on US-Israel issues during the election campaign.
J Street, the Washington-based pro-Israel Jewish group, opposed his nomination, saying he "lacks any diplomatic or policy credentials".
But America's conservative Jewish organisations backed Mr Friedman.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who did not have warm relations with President Barack Obama, welcomed Mr Friedman's nomination.


Swiss prosecutors have searched offices of the Geneva subsidiary of HSBC bank in an inquiry into alleged money-laundering.

They said they were investigating HSBC Private Bank (Suisse) and "persons unknown for suspected aggravated money laundering".
The investigation could be extended to people suspected of committing or participating in money laundering.
HSBC said it was "co-operating with the Swiss authorities."
The raid comes more than a week after allegations first emerged that HSBC's Swiss private bank may have helped wealthy clients evade tax.
HSBC published a full-page advert in several weekend papers containing an apology over the claims.
The chief executive of HSBC's Swiss private bank, Franco Morra, said last week it had shut down accounts from clients who "did not meet our high standards".
Mr Morra added the revelations about "historical business practices" were a reminder that the old business model of Swiss private banking was no longer acceptable.
HM Revenue & Customs was given the leaked data in 2010 and has identified 1,100 people who had not paid their taxes.
Last week, HSBC admitted that it was "accountable for past control failures", but said it had now "fundamentally changed".
"We acknowledge that the compliance culture and standards of due diligence in HSBC's Swiss private bank, as well as the industry in general, were significantly lower than they are today," it added.
The bank faces criminal investigations in the US, France, Belgium and Argentina, but not in the UK, where HSBC is based.
HSBC said it was "co-operating with relevant authorities".
Geneva's attorney general, Olivier Jornot, told reporters the investigation could be extended to individuals suspected of money laundering or tax fraud.
"The goal of this investigation is precisely to verify if the information that has been made public are well-founded and if de facto reproaches can be made, whether it be towards the bank, or towards physical persons, like collaborators or clients," he said.
Offshore accounts are not illegal, but many people use them to hide cash from the tax authorities.
And while tax avoidance is perfectly legal, deliberately hiding money to evade tax is not.
The allegations have caused a political storm in the UK over who knew what and when.
The leaked data was not received by the government until 2010 by which time the coalition had taken power, but refers to tax evasion that took place under the last Labour government between 2005 and 2007.
The man in charge of HSBC at the time, Stephen Green, was made a Conservative peer and appointed to the government.
Lord Green was made a minister eight months after HMRC had been given the leaked documents from his bank. He served as a minister of trade and investment until 2013.
Shadow chancellor Ed Balls has written to the chancellor accusing him of keeping quiet about the HSBC revelations.
But Treasury sources said George Osborne had given several interviews in the last few days on the matter, and that there was nothing new in Labour's letter.


The group running Bristol's Malcolm X community centre has been told its tenancy will be terminated after being warned of "substantial" lease breaches.

The centre, set up after the 1980 St Pauls riots, is based in a building owned by Bristol City Council and gets Â£37,500 funding a year.
The council said it was "committed" to the centre but was looking for a new organisation to run it from March.
Its manager said problems were being addressed and asked for more time.
The Malcolm X Community Centre Ltd (MXCC) was warned by the council in August of tenancy breaches including failings in financial management, noise and rubbish issues and subletting without consent.
On Tuesday, the council said it was seeking "expressions of interest" from groups wanting to take over the lease short-term. It also wants a group to "secure a lease and grant funding for the site from April 2017".
A spokesman said that MXCC would be supported to remain in the building and so "that they are able to submit an expression of interest for the lease" in future.
Manager Steve Stephenson told BBC Radio Bristol they had no full-time staff and needed more support, not new management.
"The Malcolm X Centre has had problems in the past but we have worked really hard for the last six to eight months to address many of these problems," he said.
"Give us an extension for another six months or so, so we can complete the task."
It follows an announcement that funding was being withdrawn from another local group, the St Pauls Afrikan Caribbean Carnival, after the council and Arts Council England said they lacked confidence in them.
Mr Stephenson said there was a "perception in the community that race plays a part" in the decisions but added: "I would say that we need to get our house in order - there are things we need to do that don't have anything to do with race."


Drivers have been urged to take extra care over pedestrians, cyclists, horse riders and bikers after the start of British Summer Time.

Police said that while nights would be getting brighter there could be a risk of poorer visibility in the mornings.
Insp Neil Hewitson, of Dumfries and Galloway's roads policing unit, urged motorists to take extra care.
He also asked drivers to be aware of an increase in the number of motorbikes on the roads as the days lengthened.
He said: "A common cause of motorcycle crashes is the so-called T-boning of the motorcycle by drivers who either pull out of a junction in front of, or across the path of an oncoming bike to turn right.
"These collisions could be avoided by drivers taking more care.
"Drivers should remember that motorcyclists are much more vulnerable than drivers, especially in wet conditions.
"A driver may walk away from a crash that a motorcyclist would not."


Southend United manager Phil Brown will reach four years at the club when his side visit AFC Wimbledon on Saturday.

Former Derby County, Hull City and Preston boss Brown, 57, took the job at Roots Hall on 25 March 2013.
He took over with the Shrimpers in League Two, but guided them to promotion via the play-offs in 2015 and his side are now sixth in League One.
"I started off a job four years ago to prove the world of football wrong," Brown told BBC Essex.
The ex-Bolton and Hartlepool defender said he had had "to go down into the second division to get a job".
Brown had been out of management since December 2011, when he was fired by Preston, before being appointed by Southend in 2013.
He said many chairmen these days are "trigger happy", leading to "good men ending up losing their jobs".
"I'm so happy the chairman [Ron Martin] isn't influenced by the outside world as much as other chairmen are," Brown continued.
"I think if you have a good relationship with the guy up top, that is the most important thing. I firmly believe that, given time, most managers will get it right."
Brown is the 11th longest-serving manager in England's top four divisions, with under-pressure Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger top of the list having been in charge of the Gunners for more than 20 years.
"I'm hoping Arsene hangs on to his job," Brown added. "If that crumbles, unfortunately the whole mentality of the world of football will change."


Vancouver is holding its first Indigenous Fashion Week (VIFW), spotlighting designs by Canada's aboriginal peoples.

Almost 60 First Nations designers and models have joined forces for the four-day event, which opened on 26 July.
Many of those on the catwalk are current or former foster children.
The event's organiser, former model Joleen Mitton, said she hoped it would give young indigenous people "a sense of their own culture".
Ms Mitton, 33, has been working with First Nations children in foster care for almost a decade. It was their interest in her fashion past that inspired her to launch the show.
"You wear who you are, and if you're wearing something from your territory, it brings you a sense of self-awareness," CBC quoted her as saying.
"It helps them know who they are, so they don't fall through the cracks of society.
"I'm hoping these girls walk away with a sense of pride in themselves, and in their culture."
Indigenous symbols are frequently borrowed by high-fashion labels - and not always sensitively.
In 2012, underwear brand Victoria's Secret apologised for sending supermodel Karlie Kloss down the runway in high-heeled moccasins and a feathered headdress - an item sacred to plains people.
Ms Mitton hopes the VIFW will send a message that people who appreciate indigenous style can get the look respectfully, by buying from First Nations designers.
"This is totally reclaiming what is ours," she said. "[The event] is activism in itself."


Queen's Park extended their unbeaten run to five matches but had to settle for a draw against Montrose.

Chris Duggan picked out Paul Woods on the left of the box and the Spiders midfielder slotted the ball into the back of the net.
The hosts struck back as Gary Fraser's free-kick from just outside the 18-yard box floated into the top corner.
The away side had numerous chances to clinch a winner but the spoils were shared at Links Park.


Aberdeen manager Derek McInnes said there is "no shame in finishing second" to the current Celtic team as he lamented the break-up of his squad.

The Dons lost the Scottish Cup final 2-1, having also been beaten in the League Cup final and finished runners-up in the league to the treble winners.
Midfielders Ryan Jack and Peter Pawlett, winger Niall McGinn and defender Ash Taylor are set to leave.
"I just wish I could keep them all," said McInnes.
McInnes highlighted the massive gap in resources from his club to Brendan Rodgers' Scottish Premiership champions, who were unbeaten in their domestic season.
"My weekly budget for my whole squad will equate to one of their players' salaries," he said.
"We are working at roughly £42,000 a week for our whole squad and we've spent £200,000 putting this team together - one player.
"We rinse everything out of them and their application is second to none."
McInnes is understood to be among the candidates being considered by Sunderland as a replacement for fellow Scotsman David Moyes, who resigned on 22 May after relegation from the Premier League.
However, as he did before Saturday's final at Hampden Park, he refused to say whether a move to the Black Cats would interest him.
"This isn't the time to speak about anybody's future," said McInnes. "Today was all about trying to win a trophy for Aberdeen.
"I love my job here and I've said that time and again. I'm just concentrating from tomorrow on bringing good players into the club."
Pawlett, who did not play at Hampden, has already signed a pre-contract agreement with MK Dons, while Jack has announced he is leaving at the end of his deal.
Northern Ireland international McGinn and Taylor are also out of contract this summer.
"We'll get good players in to help the remaining players and we'll go again," added McInnes.
"It's been a fantastic season. It could have been so much more special by winning the cup, but fantastic none the less."


A law firm criticised for mocking parents of children with special needs has been paid millions of pounds in legal fees by local authorities.

Baker Small, which tweeted gloating comments about families it had won cases against, has secured £3m in payments and contracts since 2010.
Critics said the spend was "depressing" and could have been used to help children rather than "fight parents".
Baker Small's Mark Small said he regretted the tweets posted in June.
But he defended the money paid to his firm for representing councils in tribunals to contest claims for funding and support by families of children with special educational needs (SEN).
A total of £3m was earmarked for - or paid to - the company by local authorities across the country between 2010 and 2016; £1.7m was earmarked or spent in the last year.
BBC analysis of Ministry of Justice data shows councils currently lose 86% of cases that go to tribunal, despite spending millions on legal advisors such as Baker Small.
"Once you've been an idiot on Twitter, it's quite easy to then have a go at other things that are non-specific," Mr Small said.
"Ultimately, you put your case before a tribunal and the tribunal makes a decision."
Analysis of the data also revealed the workload of the tribunal is increasing, though most cases are conceded before they are heard or settled though mediation.
The government changed the rules around SEN children in 2014 to make it more responsive and less adversarial.

How Baker Small operates:
What is the provision for children with SEN?
The firm issued an apology after being accused of laughing at parents. A number of local authorities dispensed with Baker Small's services following the row.
The council spending data for Baker Small was collated by a group of parents from local authority spending and contractual declarations throughout England. The BBC has validated their research.
Matt Keer, one of the parents, said it was "depressing" to find £1.7m had been spent or earmarked in the last financial year.
He said: "£1.7m might not sound eyebrow-raising, but when you realise what it could have been used for, it's appalling."
He said the money could have paid for 25,000 hours of specialised speech and language therapy, rather than "adversarially - to fight parents".
Mr Small said claims his company used bullying tactics were "utter rubbish".
'They were aggressive, intimidating'
Margaret Collins from Cambridge won her case at the Special Education Needs Tribunal in 2014 over the care offered to her autistic son, Henry.
She was contesting Cambridgeshire County Council's refusal, represented by Baker Small, to fund Applied Behavioural Analysis - a form of autism therapy - for Henry.
Her criticism is echoed by several other parents the BBC has spoken to.
"Baker Small tried to put in a load of last-minute evidence after all the deadlines had passed," she said.
"Their behaviour was very aggressive, quite intimidating.
"After the tribunal I was not capable of doing much for a year. It was quite traumatic, and quite unnecessary. And where is Henry in all of this?
"Why do they choose someone who is so aggressive and obstructs the process so badly?
"Our local authority ought to call in parents who have had tribunals, get our experiences and listen to us.
"It's a terrible waste of money and energy and has a terribly destructive effect on families.
"They're supposed to be there to help your child".
Baker Small deny using questionable tactics.
Director Mark Small said: "This thing about tactics and conduct of tribunals on behalf of local authorities is just not true."
He said his company had tried to "look at improving decision making before it gets anywhere near a dispute, because that is often the problem".
He did, however, admit that in some cases "additional evidence comes to light or is provided late".
The Children and Families Act (2014) replaced the previous system of statements with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs) with the aim of making the system less adversarial.
Richard Watts, Chairman of the Local Government Association's Children and Young People Board, said he understood the pressure on parents with SEN children, but added a "lack of funding means there's real pressure on councils".
A spokesman for Cambridgeshire County Council, which had paid Baker Small at least £350,000 since 2011 and dispensed with its services since the Twitter row, said the authority had "finite resources and resourcing decisions [which] have to be fair and equitable for all children and young people".
"Unfortunately this can mean that disagreements are escalated to requiring a decision from a tribunal," he added.


Brighton fans have been subjected to homophobic insults by rival supporters in over half of the club's games this season, according to two fan groups.

The Brighton and Hove Supporters Club (BHASC) and the Gay Football Supporters' Network (GFSN) compiled a dossier detailing abuse.
They submitted the report to the Football Association on Tuesday.
Media playback is not supported on this device
The report says they have been subjected to some form of homophobic abuse in at least 57% of their matches.
Brighton is well known for having a substantial lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community and is often referred to as "the gay capital of Britain".
The report says chants range from "does your boyfriend know you're here", to "you're just a town full of faggots".
A joint-statement from the BHASC and GFSN reads: "It wouldn't be described as 'banter' if the taunts and chants were about skin colour and something would have been done by now to stop it.
"Brighton & Hove Albion Supporters' Club has spent over 15 years trying to get the authorities to take this regular abuse of one club's fans seriously.
"We would like our fans to be able to go to games with kids or their grandparents and not hear much of the stuff we are subjected to - it's our basic human right.
"Our campaigning with the help of the Football Supporters' Federation has led to 'homophobic abuse' being included in the list of unacceptable behaviour in ground regulations, yet many clubs, their stewards and their fans do not seem to know what constitutes 'homophobic abuse'."
The FA stepped up efforts to fight homophobia in football by providing clubs with a toolkit, backed by Minister for Sport Hugh Robertson, in February.
The resource was sent to the 92 clubs in the Premier League and Football League as part of the Football v Homophobia campaign and 29 of the 92 clubs signed up to the scheme in the first month.
The 43-page document carries advice on how to create good relations with the LGBT community.
In addition, all 92 professional clubs last year signed the government's voluntary Sports Charter against homophobia and transphobia.
Former Leeds winger Robbie Rogers told the Guardian this week that remaining in football after publicly declaring your homosexuality is "impossible".
The American also admitted he was concerned by the reaction of opposition fans and the media, adding: "I wouldn't want to deal with the circus. Are people coming to see you because you're gay?"


Defending champion Andy Murray beat Tomas Berdych 6-3 6-2 to progress to the semi-finals of the Madrid Open.

The Scot produced arguably his best performance of the season to record a first win over the Czech on clay.
Murray, who beat 16th seed Gilles Simon to reach the quarter-finals, won 92% of his first-serve points and denied eighth-seed Berdych any break points.
The world number two, 28, will face nine-time French Open champion Rafael Nadal in the last four.
Home favourite Nadal, who is looking for a third successive tournament victory following his wins in Monte Carlo and Barcelona, beat Portuguese world number 35 Joao Sousa 6-0 4-6 6-3.
Murray broke Berdych's first service game of the match and quickly established a 3-0 lead in the opening set.
World number eight Berdych managed to hold off another break opportunity at 5-2, but Murray won his next service game to take the set in 45 minutes.
Murray then broke Berdych's serve in the fifth game of the second set, before closing out the match with minimal fuss to complete the victory in one hour and 16 minutes.
The former Wimbledon and US Open champion says he is ready for a possible semi-final against Nadal, after training with the 14-time Grand Slam winner ahead of the tournament.
"You prepare to play against the best clay court player of all time and get yourself ready for that challenge mentally," he told BBC Sport.
"I practised with him in Mallorca for a few days, which was good.
"It's great practice, but you can see some things, as well."
Murray believes his game is in good shape ahead of the French Open, which begins on 22 May, after a remodelling of his second serve over the winter.
"It is easy to say hit the second serve harder, but sometimes you need to make technical adjustments and have coaching on that," he said.
"I had to make some changes to my serve, and I did a lot of research on it myself.
"I feel much more comfortable going bigger on the second serve, as there is a lot more spin on it.
"I can control the serve better, which frees me up to go more on my first serve as well."


Hospital drug pumps produced by a leading medical supplier could be hacked because of security weaknesses, a cybersecurity expert has said.

Billy Rios said Hospira had still not fixed weaknesses he identified in 2014.
There is no suggestion that a pump has ever been maliciously hacked.
Hospira told the BBC that patient safety was its "priority" and that it was working with regulators to fix the issues.
"Exploiting cybersecurity vulnerabilities requires penetrating several layers of network security enforced by the hospital information system, including secure firewalls," the firm told the BBC.
"As we have been doing with DHS (Department of Homeland Security) and FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for some time, we will continue to investigate any feedback we receive on our devices. We will also continue to communicate with customers regarding cybersecurity, and software and infusion pump updates and/or enhancements."
The firm added that it had submitted a new version of its LifeCare Infusion System for approval to the FDA.
The US Department of Homeland Security said Hospira had "validated" vulnerabilities in this product and the new version would "mitigate" those security weaknesses.
In a blog post, Mr Rios said he had found that drug library updates - the upper and lower limits for the amounts of medication a patient can safely receive - could be altered remotely.
Mr Rios said he had tested five other pumps sold by Hospira and found similar flaws.
"What I found was very interesting, many of Hospira's infusion pumps utilise identical software on their infusion pumps' communications module, making them vulnerable to the exact same security issues associated with the PCA3 [the model originally identified with weaknesses]," he wrote.
He found that they used outdated software and had identical encryption certificates, private keys and service credentials, he added.
Another security researcher, Jeremy Richards from Oxtech Security, described the PCA3 as "the least secure IP-enabled device I've ever touched in my life".
"I would personally be very concerned if this devices was being attached to me.
"It is not only susceptible to attack, it is so poorly programmed it can be rendered a useless brick with a single typo," he wrote in a blog post.
In 2007 there were more than 400,000 Hospira pumps in use in hospitals around the world, according to the company's website.
Hospira was acquired by pharmaceutical giant Pfizer in February 2015 in a deal worth $17bn (Â£11bn).


The owner of French carmaker Peugeot has reported a near doubling of profits, as it considers buying General Motors' (GM) Opel and Vauxhall brands.

Net income at PSA Group, which also owns Citroen, jumped 92% last year to 1.73bn euros (Â£1.47bn).
PSA's possible purchase of GM's European brands has raised fears of job losses at Vauxhall in the UK.
On Wednesday, PSA said it had promised Theresa May it would "develop" the Vauxhall brand if the deal goes ahead.
But it offered no further commitments to protect the 4,500 jobs making cars at Ellesmere Port and vans in Luton.
The two firms are expected to sign a statement of intent during the next two weeks.
General Motors announced last week it was in discussions over selling its European brands, Opel and Vauxhall, to PSA. That prompted speculation that the French company would cut capacity by closing plants.
Politicians in Germany and the UK have begun lobbying on behalf of their own locations. On Wednesday evening UK Prime Minister Theresa May spoke to PSA chief executive Carols Tavares on the telephone.
During the call, PSA chief executive Carlos Tavares "expressed his willingness to develop further the iconic Vauxhall brand for the benefit of its faithful customers", PSA said in a statement.
PSA said its operating margin, the level of profit it makes on sales, had risen from 5% in 2015 to 6% in 2016. It is the third year in a row that operating margin, sales and net profit have improved at the group, which flirted with bankruptcy in 2014.
As a result of the company's improved performance, chief financial officer Jean-Baptiste de Chatillon said PSA was in a position to make "profitable investments in the interest of our shareholders".
However, he added that the outcome of the talks with GM were not yet certain.
According to Carlos Tavares, Opel needs help. It has, he says, been making red ink for 10 years and burning 1bn euros in cash every year.
If you put it that way, it's easy to see why General Motors wants to get rid of it - but why is PSA Group so interested in taking it on?
In today's press conference, Mr Tavares set out a few reasons. And one of them seems to be the international reputation of German-built cars compared to their French rivals.
In some countries, he said, French-built cars simply don't sell. He didn't specify where, although the United States would appear to be a prime example.
Combining the two companies would also generate cost savings. And having engineered a rescue for PSA itself, when the French giant came close to going bust in 2014, Mr Tavares knows how to turn a failing business around.
So there's logic in the planned deal. But Mr Tavares can have no illusions about the political sensitivities involved. Despite his promises to honour existing labour agreements, analysts believe job cuts at some point are inevitable.
So the road ahead could be a rocky one.


Ed Miliband has said Labour is on the "right path" in supporting a cap on public sector pay rises, amid criticism from two of the party's union backers.

Unite and the GMB, two of the UK's largest trade unions, say the move is a "serious mistake" and could lead the party to a general election defeat.
But Labour's leader told the BBC he would "stand up for what's right" and it was "tough" if others disagreed.
Mr Miliband added that the party had to face up to "economic reality".
In 2010, the Conservative-Liberal Democrat froze public sector pay for two years for those earning above Â£21,000.
Then, last November, it said rises would be capped at 1% for each of the two years to 2015.
Labour's leadership announced at the weekend that this public sector pay restraint would continue if it regained power, given the economic situation.
But Len McCluskey, the general secretary of Unite - the UK's biggest union and Labour's largest donor - told the Guardian newspaper this would lead to the party's "destruction" and "certain electoral defeat".
Analysis: Masterstroke or own goal?Labour - Now Ed backs pay cuts
He criticised what he called a "cavalier" shift in policy, arguing: "This confronts those of us who have supported Ed Miliband's bold attempt to move on from Blairism with a challenge. His leadership has been undermined as he is being dragged back into the swamp of bond market orthodoxy."
And the Evening Standard said it had seen a letter suggesting the GMB was considering its financial ties to Labour.
A spokesman for the union told the BBC that its general secretary Paul Kenny had written to senior Labour officials saying that the decision to back the public sector pay cap was a "most serious mistake".
Between July 2010 and last September, Unite gave Â£5m to Labour and the GMB provided Â£1.9m. This represented 43.2% of all donations made to the party during the period.
But, speaking to BBC political editor Nick Robinson, Mr Miliband said: "I don't seek a fight within my own party, but I do stand up for what's right.
"And if people don't like it, I'm afraid that's tough because I'm going to take the responsible path, the right path and the path which will show to the public that Labour is serious about the economic reality we will face if we come into government after the next general election."
Asked if he was urging public sector workers to agree to pay cuts to preserve jobs, Mr Miliband replied: "Absolutely. We're talking actually about a pay increase limited to 1%, but absolutely.
"Look, the priority now has to be to preserve jobs. I think that's a recognition that everybody would see around the country. We have got to do everything we can to preserve employment and as I say, this Labour Party is going to face up to those difficult choices we have to make."
But Bob Crow, general secretary of the RMT transport trade union - which is not affiliated to Labour - said the party was now "doomed" to electoral defeat.
Backbench Labour MP John Mann told BBC Radio 4's World at One there had "to be some proper thought on how government can reduce spending", rather than "by attacking the lowest paid". He said Mr Miliband needed a "credible plan" for government.
And fellow backbencher John McDonnell also accused his leader of "capitulation to Cameron's economic analysis", adding: "Len McCluskey's article sums up the general feeling among Labour Party supporters of overwhelming disappointment."
Unions founded Labour and supply around 90% of the party's funds. Mr Miliband narrowly won the Labour leadership contest in September 2010 ahead of his brother, David, after success with trade union members and affiliated societies pushed him into first place.


Transport bosses in Greater Manchester are being urged to reconsider plans to increase tram fares by twice the rate of inflation.

Metrolink tickets are set to rise by an average of 6% next year, with some fares rising by 7.3%.
The Greater Manchester Integrated Transport Authority said fares had been frozen for the past two years, and trams and track had been improved.
But local MPs Graham Stringer and Tony Lloyd said the rise was "unjustified".
Mr Stringer, Labour MP for Blackley and Broughton, and Tony Lloyd, Labour MP for Manchester Central, tabled a House of Commons motion saying the decision was taken "without any consultation and at a time when services have been disrupted because of the extension of the Metrolink system".
They are calling for immediate consultation on the issue.
The rise means an adult peak-return fare will increase by 20p and a peak-return for a child by 10p, in the majority of cases.
An annual season ticket for an adult, from Altrincham to Manchester, will go up from Â£875 to Â£930.
A spokesman for the transport authority said the rise is lower than the change in the Retail Prince Index (RPI) in the past two years.
Councillor Ian Macdonald, authority chairman, said: "We have considered the latest fare changes, which come into effect in January, in detail and believe that they represent value for money, while also ensuring that the network can continue to compete with other types of transport in offering popular, good quality services."
He said the authority had considered a request by Mr Stringer for public consultation but said they thought it was not appropriate.
"It is our role to ensure that we balance Metrolink revenues against the growing costs of running, improving and expanding the network, he added.
"For passengers, there is no ideal time to increase fares but we can assure them - and Mr Stringer - that any change will always be the least it can be."


At least 85 people died when a gunman opened fire at an island youth camp in Norway, hours after a bombing in the capital Oslo killed seven, police say.

Police have charged a 32-year-old Norwegian man over both attacks.
The man dressed as a police officer was arrested on tiny Utoeya island after an hour-long shooting spree.
Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg said many people were still looking for their children and had not so far been able to locate them.
He was speaking after meeting victims and relatives with Norway's King Harald, Queen Sonja and Crown Prince Haakon in the town of Sundvollen near the island.
Values attackedHome-grown plot?In pictures: Shock
Mr Stoltenberg said he was "deeply touched" by the meetings. "We will do whatever we can to give them as much support as possible," he said.
Earlier he said that he was due to have been on Utoeya - "a youth paradise turned into a hell" - a few hours after the attack took place.
The suspect is reported by local media to have had links with right-wing extremists. He has been named as Anders Behring Breivik. Police searched his Oslo apartment overnight and are questioning him.
The BBC's Richard Galpin, near the island which is currently cordoned off by police, says that Norway has had problems with neo-Nazi groups in the past but the assumption was that such groups had been largely eliminated and did not pose a significant threat.
Police say they are investigating whether the attacks were the work of one man or whether others helped.
"At Utoeya, the water is still being searched for more victims," deputy police chief Roger Andresen told reporters.
"We have no more information than... what has been found on [his] own websites, which is that it goes towards the right and that it is, so to speak, Christian fundamentalist."
By Richard GalpinBBC News, near Utoeya
A search is going on not just on the island itself, but also in the waters around it because a lot of people tried to escape by jumping in the water and trying to swim away. Even as they did that, eyewitnesses say, the gunman opened fire on them.
The chatter now is that it took the police an hour, if not an hour and a half, to actually get to the island. Of course that gave the gunman so much time to kill so many people.
Also crucially, the police were throwing all their resources at the huge bomb attack which had just taken place in the centre of Oslo.
But still, the question will be asked: Were there not police nearer to this area who could have moved in much more quickly?
Local media report that police are investigating claims by witnesses that a second person was involved, apparently not disguised in a police uniform.
A farm supply firm has confirmed selling six tonnes of fertiliser to Mr Breivik who is reported to have run a farming company. Speculation has been rife that fertiliser could have been used in the Oslo bomb.
The number killed in the island shooting spree, which is among the world's most deadly, had been put at 10 on Friday - but soared overnight. Hundreds of young people had been attending the summer camp organised by the governing Labour Party on Utoeya island.
Eyewitnesses described how a tall, blond man dressed as a policeman opened fire indiscriminately, prompting camp attendees to jump into the water to try to escape the hail of bullets.
Some of the teenagers were shot at as they tried to swim to safety.
Armed police were deployed to the island but details of the operation to capture the suspect remain unclear. After his arrest he was charged with committing acts of terrorism.
Profile: Anders Behring Breivik
Police say they discovered many more victims after searching the area around the island. They have warned the death toll may rise further as rescue teams continue to scour the waters around the island.
The gunman is reported to have been armed with a handgun, an automatic weapon and a shotgun.
"He travelled on the ferry boat from the mainland over to that little inland island posing as a police officer, saying he was there to do research in connection with the bomb blasts," NRK journalist Ole Torp told the BBC.
"He asked people to gather round and then he started shooting, so these young people fled into the bushes and woods and some even swam off the island to get to safety."
One 15-year-old eyewitness described how she saw what she thought was a police officer open fire.
"He first shot people on the island. Afterward he started shooting people in the water," youth camp delegate Elise told Associated Press.
The attacks sparked strong international condemnation, with US President Barack Obama expressing his condolences and offering support.
Britain's Queen Elizabeth II spoke of her shock and sadness in a letter to King Harald.
In Oslo, government officials urged people to stay at home and avoid central areas of the city.
Shards of twisted metal, rubble and glass littered the streets of central Oslo left devastated by Friday's enormous explosion.
Windows in the buildings of the government quarter were shattered and witnesses described how smoke filled the atmosphere around the blast site.
The BBC's John Sopel in Oslo says there is a heavy military presence, with checkpoints around the quarter.
Mr Stoltenberg said civil servants were among the dead in Oslo and he knew some of those killed.
There are also concerns that more victims may still be inside buildings hit by the initial massive explosion.


The Irish Cup sixth-round game between Carrick Rangers and Crumlin Star on Saturday has been postponed because of a waterlogged pitch.

The decision to call off tie was made following an inspection at the Belfast Loughshore Arena on Saturday morning.
It is the ninth postponement at Carrick's home ground this season and a the cup fixture has been rearranged for Monday, 15 February.
The remaining seven sixth-round games will go ahead as scheduled.
Carrick have played just two matches at their home venue since 31 October and face a major fixtures backlog.


Giles Scott sealed gold in sailing's Finn class to give Great Britain their fifth successive Olympic title in the event.

The Weymouth-based 29-year-old succeeds Sir Ben Ainslie, who won the previous three titles, and will now join the ex-Olympian's 2017 America's Cup team.
"It's an amazing achievement for Giles. He really has been totally dominant," Ainslie told BBC South Today.
Scott's victory gave Great Britain their 17th gold medal of the Games.

The champion took an unassailable lead going into Tuesday's medal race, winning three of the 11 races in the competition.
Ainslie added: "To win gold without having to even compete in the medal races is rare."
Scott came second in the final race and finished with a total score of 36 points. Slovenia's Vasilij Zbogar took silver with 68 points and USA's Caleb Paine, who won the final race, finished third with 76 points.

Scott said on Monday: "It's been a long road. I campaigned properly for London, missed out on the qualification for that and was bitterly disappointed.
"Watching all of my friends racing at the Olympics and get medals wasn't easy, but the amazing thing that came off the back of it was a desire to right the wrongs I felt I made, and to put together a campaign I could be proud of and just really work my ass off for three years."

Professor Brian Cox has verbally sparred with a newly elected Australian politician who believes climate change is a global conspiracy.

The British physicist behind BBC's Wonders of the Universe was a guest on the adversarial panel show Q&A.
Also on the Australian TV show was senator-elect Malcolm Roberts from the anti-immigration One Nation party.
The celebrity scientist was dumbfounded by Mr Roberts' claim that climate change data was manipulated by Nasa.
The Australian Broadcasting Corp. panel show puts politicians, commentators and experts from different fields in front of a live studio audience to face questions about the issues of the week.
Mr Roberts has previously claimed that the United Nations is using climate change to lay the foundations for an unelected global government.
Six graphics that explain climate change
A member of the audience asked Prof Cox to address Mr Roberts' request for proof of a human element in climate change.
"I could sit here and read out figures until I'm blue in the face," Prof Cox said.
"The absolute, absolute consensus is that human action is leading to an increase in average temperature. Absolute consensus. I know you may try to argue with that," he said to Mr Roberts, "but you can't."
Mr Roberts worked in coal mining and has an honours degree in engineering and a master's degree in business administration.
Throughout the show, the senator repeatedly called for "empirical data" proving that climate change was real.
At one point, Prof Cox produced a graph showing global surface temperatures of the past century.
However, Mr Roberts said the climate data had been "corrupted".
"What do you mean corrupted?" Prof Cox asked.
Mr Roberts responded: "Manipulated".
"By who?" Prof Cox asked.
"Nasa," Mr Roberts said.
When asked earlier this month if he still believed the UN was trying to impose a worldwide government through climate change policy, Mr Roberts answered: "Definitely".
He also wrote a report in 2013 that detailed his rejection of man-made global warming.
Science Minister Greg Hunt was also on the show and was asked to clarify the government's position on climate change.
"All of these different organisations, I don't think they're subject to a collective folly, nor do I think that they're subject to some sort of conspiratorial collusion," he said.
"I respect the right of people to have different views, but we don't make our policy on that. Our policy is it's real and it's important and it's significant."


A company that offers holidays that cater for people with dementia and their main carer has said it has seen increased demand for its breaks.

MindforYou provided eight holidays in its first year in 2015, 15 breaks in 2016 and said it expected its total number for this year to be higher.
The trips are usually taken up by couples.
They can stay at "dementia-friendly" accommodation in the Highlands, Perthshire, Fife and Lothian.
Locations in England and Wales are also available, the company said.
The main carer of people with dementia is often a spouse or another family member.
Val Johnston, of MindforYou, told BBC Radio's Good Morning Scotland programme: "In traditional respite care, the carer has a holiday and the person with dementia goes into a respite home.
"They are apart and some of these couples have been married for 60-plus years. They've never been apart before, so it can be a stressful.
"To come away on a holiday with your partner, I think, makes the person with dementia more at ease. They are not on their own."


Pupil numbers at schools in Dumfries will be capped under plans to transform education in the town.

Limits will be imposed on S1 numbers at all four secondary schools in 2016/17 as part of the Dumfries Learning Town project.
The town's 25 primary schools will also be subjected to restrictions on their primary one intake.
Council officials said they need to reduce the town's school estate by 1,000 pupils "to reflect demographics".
It is likely to mean that the most popular schools in Dumfries will be forced to turn some prospective pupils away.
At Dumfries High School, which accepted 165 first years last year, the roll will be capped at 141 pupils.
Laurieknowe Primary School's P1 class will be restricted to 54 children, limiting its total roll to 364.
Without capping, its roll was expected to rise to 384 in August 2016.
In a report to members of Dumfries and Galloway Council's education committee, officials said historical data and the design of planned new schools pointed to the need to cap rolls.
They added: "Capping will enable us to plan for change, work creatively across associated schools supporting the key aim of Dumfries Learning Town to ensure equality irrespective of where you live in the burgh."
According to the council's projections, the cap will have little effect at most schools and they will have space to enrol additional pupils.
However, there is likely to be a high demand for places at at least three primary schools where the "capped" school roll will be lower than the predicted demand for places.
The report revealed that about 70% (1,711) of secondary age students in Dumfries do not attend their designated catchment school.
Just under 200 leave the town to attend Wallace Hall Academy in Thornhill.
More than half of pupils (389) from north-west Dumfries do not attend their local school, Maxwelltown High.
A total of 1,585 primary pupils (45% of the total) do not attend their designated catchment school.
Under plans for the Dumfries Learning Town, new "learning campuses" would built at Maxwelltown High and Dumfries High. St Joseph's College and Dumfries Academy would be refurbished.
It would also involve the creation of a "learning hub" offering specialist higher academic and vocational studies.


British duo Heather Watson and Johanna Konta reached the main draw of the Wuhan Open with comfortable victories in qualifying in China.

British number one Watson, 23, broke the serve of Russian Yulia Putintseva six times in a 6-2 6-4 victory.
The world number 59 will next play Serbia's Jelena Jankovic, ranked 25, in the first round on Monday.
Konta, 24, will face Germany's Andrea Petkovic after thrashing American Irina Falconi 6-2 6-1 in an hour.
"Yes it's definitely good times [for British tennis]," said Konta. "Heather played two really good matches and she came through really strongly and that's all positive things for her too going into the main draw."


A 24-year-old woman was seriously injured by a rhino moments after posing for a photograph with it, South Africa's Beeld newspaper reports.

Chantal Beyer suffered injuries to her shoulder, lungs and ribs after being gored at the Aloe Ridge Hotel and Game Reserve, some 40km from Johannesburg.
Ms Beyer, a student from West Rand, was with her husband and several other people on a game drive in the reserve.
She is said to be in a serious but stable condition in hospital.
South Africa is home to some three-quarters of the world's rhinoceros population of about 28,000 animals.
But the country has seen a substantial rise in poaching in the past year amid a reported growing demand for rhino horn in parts of Asia where it is believed to have medicinal powers.


The former Manchester United and Ireland skipper who steered Real Betis to their only La Liga title will be honoured in Spain later.

A bust is being unveiled of Patrick O'Connell at the Seville club's Estadio Benito VillamarÃn before the home game with Real Sociedad.
Among those attending will be his grandson Michael O'Connell from Leigh.
Patrick O'Connell, who died in poverty in London in 1959, is also credited with saving Barcelona in the 1930s.
The Patrick O'Connell Memorial Fund raised more than Â£10,000 for the project which has been backed by some of football's biggest names.
The fund previously raised money for a memorial on his unmarked pauper's grave in north London.
Fergus Dowd, one of the appeal's organisers said: "Patrick O'Connell had an incredible career. He was like Brian Clough with Nottingham Forest.
"He took Real Betis from Spain's second division, beating Real Madrid to the club's only championship in La Liga."
O'Connell, who was the first Irish player to captain Manchester United, also skippered Ireland to their first British Home Championship.
The former Belfast Celtic, Sheffield Wednesday and Hull City player, nicknamed 'Don Patricio' in Spain, joined Barcelona after a four-year spell as coach of Real Betis where he masterminded its promotion from the second division before securing the title in 1935.
When Barcelona almost folded in the 1930s under pressure from General Franco's forces, O'Connell, their manager, helped organise a money-spinning tour to Mexico and the US which raised $12,000.
"He was in Ireland when the civil war broke out. He was told he didn't have to return but he came back," said Mr Dowd.
"One writer has said that in terms of Barcelona's history his name should be up there with Cruyff, Maradona and Messi."
O'Connell was inducted in the Catalan club's hall of fame in December 2015.


More than 50 people have been killed in a landslide in Antioquia province in north-west Colombia, officials say.

President Juan Manuel Santos said the authorities do not know how many people are still missing.
Heavy rains caused the river Liboriana, in the town of Salgar, to burst its banks, triggering the landslide.
Much of the village of Santa Margarita, south-west of the provincial capital, Medellin, was swept away when the disaster hit early on Monday.
Rescue teams and residents have got together to dig through rouble in the hope of finding survivors.
After visiting the scene of the disaster, Mr Santos declared a state of emergency and promised to rebuild the houses.
"We cannot bring the dead back, which we regret deeply, and we will support the families (of the victims)," said Mr Santos earlier.
"But we have to move on from this tragedy, and look ahead with courage and fortitude."
"The priority now is the hospital," said the president.
Earlier on Monday, gas and electricity services in the town were suspended as a precautionary measure.
The Colombian Air Force and police have sent helicopters to the area. More than 160 soldiers are working in the emergency effort.
Some 100 people have been evacuated from high-risk areas.
Local official Zulma Osorio spoke of a "tragedy of enormous proportions".
Mud, rocks and tree trunks destroyed many houses in poor neighbourhoods close to the river.
Resident Jorge Quintero described his ordeal when the landslide hit the village: "When I felt my house shaking we got out, my family and me. When we got out, we were stuck in the middle of the landslide, it was coming from both sides and we were in the middle.
"I said to my wife, let's hold each other and hope that God saves us and I know he gave us his hand because here we are, alive, still frightened, but still alive."
More rain is expected in the are in the next few days.


North Korea says its main nuclear facility, the Yongbyon complex, has resumed normal operations.

The country was improving its nuclear weapons "in quality and quantity", state-run news agency KCNA reported.
Yongbyon's reactor was shut down in 2007 but Pyongyang vowed to restart it in 2013, following its third nuclear test and amid high regional tensions.
The reactor has been the source of plutonium for North Korea's nuclear weapons programme.
Experts believe that if re-started, the reactor could make one bomb's worth of plutonium per year.
The announcement about Yongbyon is the first official confirmation from North Korea that it has restarted operations there.
A US think-tank said earlier this year that satellite images suggested that work had started at the plant.
KCNA said on Tuesday that the North was ready to face US hostility with "nuclear weapons any time".
However, the full scope of North Korea's nuclear capabilities is unclear.
Pyongyang claims it has made a device small enough to fit a nuclear warhead on to a missile, which it could launch at its enemies.
However, US officials have cast doubt on this claim and experts say it is difficult to assess the progress North Korea has made on miniaturisation.
Analysis: Stephen Evans, BBC News, Seoul
Two big claims have been made as the country prepares for the 70th anniversary of the foundation of the ruling Workers Party. Firstly, it said the nuclear facility producing material for bombs is fully operational.
Secondly, Pyongyang has indicated it will launch a rocket soon to carry a satellite into space - but the US and South Korea believe it would be a test of a long-range military missile.
Most reliable observers think North Korea already has nuclear material for 12 or so atomic bombs, but may not be able to make those bombs small enough to go on a rocket. Nor has it shown it can send a missile as far as the US (though it has ample ability to hit South Korea).
If it emerged that its rocket technology really had advanced enough to hit California, that would change the calculation completely.
North Korea is indicating it is near that stage, but there is no evidence that this is more than sabre-rattling right now.
North Korea has made threats against its neighbours and the US before, often to coincide with annual joint military exercises held by South Korea and US forces.
The two Koreas remain technically at war, because the 1950-1953 war ended in an armistice, not a peace treaty.
China, which is North Korea's main ally and trading partner, said on Tuesday that it hoped "relevant parties" would respond with "caution and refrain from taking actions that may elevate tension".
