Hi, I'm Hayley with your Newsround update. Coming up: | 0:00:11 | 0:00:13 | |
England head home from the World Cup | 0:00:13 | 0:00:14 | |
after a goalless draw against Costa Rica. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:16 | |
The rare birds that could be making a comeback. | 0:00:16 | 0:00:18 | |
And the boy sneaking a cheeky selfie with the Queen. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:23 | |
The first American troops have arrived in Iraq to help the | 0:00:25 | 0:00:28 | |
country's army in the fight against Sunni Islamist militants, ISIS. | 0:00:28 | 0:00:33 | |
Nearly half of the 300 special operations soldiers promised by | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
President Obama are in the capital, Baghdad, or on the front lines, with | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
the rest expected within days. The American government says they are | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
not there to get directly involved with the fighting but will offer | 0:00:42 | 0:00:45 | |
advice and are setting up a joint command centre in Baghdad. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:51 | |
A massive court case into whether staff at the News of the World paper | 0:00:51 | 0:00:55 | |
were guilty of phone hacking which started in 2011 ended yesterday with | 0:00:55 | 0:01:00 | |
the paper's old editor Andy Coulson being found guilty. Here's Jenny. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:04 | |
It all started at the News of the World. Reporters at the newspaper | 0:01:05 | 0:01:09 | |
were accused of listening in to people's phone messages to get | 0:01:09 | 0:01:13 | |
exclusive stories. They targeted celebrities, the Royal family, and | 0:01:13 | 0:01:16 | |
even ordinary people, including the parents of missing schoolgirl, Milly | 0:01:16 | 0:01:19 | |
Dowler, who were desperately trying to find their daughter. Hacking | 0:01:19 | 0:01:23 | |
forums is against the law and after several accusations were made, the | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
paper was shut down. Bosses and reporters from the News of the World | 0:01:26 | 0:01:32 | |
were then put on trial to find out who knew what was going on. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:36 | |
Yesterday, Andy Coulson, who was the editor of the newspaper when some of | 0:01:36 | 0:01:39 | |
the hacking took place, was found guilty of conspiring to hack phones. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:45 | |
Mr Coulson also used to work as the press spokesman for the Prime | 0:01:45 | 0:01:50 | |
Minister, David Cameron. He was criticised for hiring him at the | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
time and yesterday apologised. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:56 | |
I was always clear that I was giving someone a second chance. He had | 0:01:56 | 0:02:00 | |
resigned from the News of the World because of what happened there, the | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
bad things that had happened there. I accepted his assurances, | 0:02:04 | 0:02:06 | |
I gave him a job. It was a second chance. It turns out to be a bad | 0:02:06 | 0:02:10 | |
decision and I am extremely sorry about that. | 0:02:10 | 0:02:13 | |
Andy Coulson's boss at the company that the newspaper, Rebekah Brooks, | 0:02:13 | 0:02:18 | |
was also on trial. But she was cleared of all the charges on | 0:02:18 | 0:02:21 | |
Tuesday, along with four other people, after the paper was closed | 0:02:21 | 0:02:24 | |
down. The government launched a big enquiry to decide whether newspapers | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
needed new rules and should be monitored more closely. Some | 0:02:27 | 0:02:29 | |
newspapers said that was too much interference. But celebrities | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
affected say more needs to be done to make sure | 0:02:31 | 0:02:33 | |
nothing like this ever happens again. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:42 | |
FIFA, the company in charge of world football, is investigating Luis | 0:02:45 | 0:02:47 | |
Suarez after he was accused of biting an Italian player during a | 0:02:47 | 0:02:52 | |
World Cup game yesterday. This is the moment Suarez clashed with | 0:02:52 | 0:02:56 | |
Italian defender Giorgio Chiellini. The referee didn't take any action | 0:02:56 | 0:03:01 | |
at the time. Suarez has been banned twice before for biting, while | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
playing for Ajax and his current club Liverpool, and if the | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
accusations are true, he could be banned for two years. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
England's World Cup journey ended last night with a draw against Costa | 0:03:10 | 0:03:13 | |
Rica. Manager Roy Hodgson had mixed things up, making nine changes to | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
his squad, but it wasn't enough to win - there wasn't a single goal, | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
and England ducked out of the World Cup with a 0-0 draw. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:27 | |
It's day three of Wimbledon and BBC tennis correspondent Russell Fuller | 0:03:27 | 0:03:30 | |
has been busy doing his homework - we've put together his top tips for | 0:03:30 | 0:03:33 | |
who he thinks might win the competition this year. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:35 | |
Hello, Newsround. I'm Russell Fuller, BBC tennis correspondent. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
Here is who I think might just win Wimbledon this year... | 0:03:37 | 0:03:42 | |
Why shouldn't Andy Murray win the men's singles title again? He will | 0:03:46 | 0:03:49 | |
never be under as much pressure as he was 12 months ago, becoming the | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
first British man to win the singles at Wimbledon for 77 years. And there | 0:03:53 | 0:03:56 | |
have been signs of the last few weeks, after his back surgery in | 0:03:56 | 0:03:59 | |
September, that he is starting to return to his best form. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:04 | |
Rafa Nadal is the other man I tip to go well at Wimbledon. Last year, in | 0:04:05 | 0:04:09 | |
one of the biggest upset in modern tennis history, he lost in the very | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
first round to a Belgian player called Steve Darcis. Nadal struggles | 0:04:12 | 0:04:15 | |
with his knees. And a lower bouncing ball on the grass means that those | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
knees are put under great strain. If he can conquer that, | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
he's a champion never to be underestimated. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:26 | |
Serena Williams has to start as the favourite for the women's singles, | 0:04:31 | 0:04:35 | |
or the ladies' singles, as they like to call it at Wimbledon. She has | 0:04:35 | 0:04:38 | |
been the finest female player of the 21st-century, but has not want | 0:04:38 | 0:04:41 | |
either of the two big events, the grandslam events in Australia and | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
France, so far this year. So just maybe, it is her turn. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:51 | |
If you are looking for one of the younger players to come through, | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
then the best of the bunch is Eugenie Bouchard. She's just 20, | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
she's from Canada, and she has reached the semifinals of both the | 0:04:57 | 0:05:00 | |
Australian Open and French Open this year. And worryingly, for the rest | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
of the field, she says grass is her favourite surface. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:08 | |
And to find out all about Wimbledon, including how the scoring works, | 0:05:09 | 0:05:11 | |
head over to the Newsround website for our guide to the tournament. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:16 | |
One of the world's rarest birds could be rearing its head again as a | 0:05:18 | 0:05:22 | |
hand-reared spoon-billed sandpiper has survived travelling five | 0:05:22 | 0:05:24 | |
thousand miles from Russia to Asia and back. It's thought there are | 0:05:24 | 0:05:27 | |
less than 100 left in the wild. Experts had to wait two years to see | 0:05:27 | 0:05:31 | |
if she would make it back from her travels and it's hoped that they | 0:05:31 | 0:05:34 | |
will start breeding soon. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:40 | |
The Queen's face is on money, stamps, and plenty of royal | 0:05:40 | 0:05:43 | |
portraits - but it's not every day she features in a selfie. Her | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
Majesty was on a tour of a market in Belfast, Northern Ireland, when an | 0:05:46 | 0:05:49 | |
enthusiastic boy leant in to take a royal selfie. | 0:05:49 | 0:05:51 | |
Smartphone? More like smart-throne! | 0:05:51 | 0:05:56 | |
That's all from me, Newsround's back at 4:20pm. Bye! | 0:05:56 | 0:06:01 |
