Good evening. Iran says it is prepared to | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
co-operate with the United States and to help the Iraqi government in | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
its battle against Sunni extremists. President Hassan Rohani made | :00:31. | :00:32. | |
the extraordinary offer during a news conference, | :00:33. | :00:35. | |
but he denied that Iranian troops had already been sent into Iraq. | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
This evening the Pentagon ordered an aircraft carrier and two warships | :00:40. | :00:45. | |
into the Gulf in case Washington decides to pursue a military option | :00:46. | :00:48. | |
against the insurgents. Fighters | :00:49. | :00:51. | |
from the Islamist group ISIS have taken control of large parts | :00:52. | :00:54. | |
of the north and west, including the cities of Mosul and Tikrit. | :00:55. | :00:56. | |
From Irbil, our correspondent Paul Wood reports. | :00:57. | :01:05. | |
The front line with ISIS in the North. These Kurdish fighters are | :01:06. | :01:13. | |
few in number, but determined to defend their territory. Their morale | :01:14. | :01:23. | |
is high, unlike the Iraqi army, which fled from here. | :01:24. | :01:30. | |
In Shia mosques in Baghdad, a rallying cry. There are forming | :01:31. | :01:39. | |
their own militias rather than relying on the Army. | :01:40. | :01:48. | |
The fightback starts now, says the Prime Minister. We will take back | :01:49. | :01:54. | |
every inch defaced by the feet of those traitors, he says. A million | :01:55. | :02:02. | |
people have been displaced by the fighting according to a UN estimate. | :02:03. | :02:10. | |
We are seeing a very serious threat to the sovereign and integrity of | :02:11. | :02:18. | |
this country, and that needs to be dealt with. It cannot be dealt with | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
only militarily, but it cannot you dealt with only politically, because | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
the opponent is a very determined organisation of people who seek to | :02:28. | :02:30. | |
destroy the state. All of the international efforts now centred on | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
putting pressure on the Shi'ite Government in Baghdad. That it is | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
hoped will take some of the foresight of what is largely a Sunni | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
tribal uprising. But ISIS would not be part of any deal. Here the | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
jihadists celebrate the latest gains, and Iraq will need help from | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
both Iran and the United States to stop them. | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
The Ukrainian government is vowing to retaliate | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
after a military transport plane was shot down by pro-Russian | :03:09. | :03:10. | |
separatists, killing 49 people. The plane, which was carrying troops | :03:11. | :03:13. | |
and equipment, was about to land at Luhansk airport. | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
It is thought to be the biggest single loss of life suffered | :03:18. | :03:20. | |
by government forces since the start of the conflict in east Ukraine. | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
Daniel Sandford reports. The wreckage of the Ukrainian | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
military transport plane knocked out of the sky at a government-held | :03:29. | :03:31. | |
airfield this morning. None of the nine crew or 40 | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
soldiers it was carrying survived. The Ukrainian defence ministry said | :03:37. | :03:39. | |
it had been destroyed by terrorists. The phrase it usually uses | :03:40. | :03:41. | |
for the fighters in the far east of the country who want to break | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
away and join Russia. It was easily the worst loss of life | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
by Ukrainian forces in a conflict which gets worse by the week. | :03:51. | :03:55. | |
A security camera filmed the plane landing in Lugansk at | :03:56. | :03:59. | |
one in the morning, and it burst into flames and crashed the ground. | :04:00. | :04:03. | |
The new Ukrainian president, Petro Poroshenko, was only sworn | :04:04. | :04:07. | |
in here in Kiev last week. He has promised to punish those | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
responsible for the deaths. But in truth he has little control | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
over the most restless regions in the far east of the country, | :04:17. | :04:21. | |
Lugansk and Donetsk. There was shock this week | :04:22. | :04:24. | |
when three battle tanks turned up near Donetsk, clearly in | :04:25. | :04:29. | |
the hands of the pro-Russia rebels. The United States said they had been | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
driven across the border, and Nato backed this up with satellite | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
images. In the last three days, a convoy | :04:37. | :04:42. | |
of three tanks, several launchers | :04:43. | :04:46. | |
and other military vehicles crossed from Russia into Ukraine | :04:47. | :04:50. | |
near the eastern Ukrainian town. This is unacceptable. | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
There was a rare success for the Ukrainian government yesterday | :04:56. | :05:01. | |
when forces took control back of the last rebel held | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
buildings in the port city. But every street and every | :05:06. | :05:08. | |
building is having to be fought for, and increasingly well armed | :05:09. | :05:11. | |
pro-Russian forces still control several large cities. | :05:12. | :05:18. | |
Daniel Sandford, BBC News, Kiev. The Chief Inspector of Prisons has | :05:19. | :05:20. | |
warned that jails in England and Wales are so overcrowded there's | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
a risk to prisoners and the public. Nick Hardwick accused ministers of | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
a "political and policy failure." It comes after the Government told | :05:27. | :05:29. | |
40 prisons to find space for hundreds of extra inmates | :05:30. | :05:32. | |
in case of need over the summer. Our political correspondent | :05:33. | :05:34. | |
Gary O'Donoghue is in Wandsworth at one of the prisons affected. | :05:35. | :05:44. | |
Nick Hardwick isn't mincing his words, but ministers appear | :05:45. | :05:52. | |
unconcerned. Should they be? The chief inspector doesn't make a | :05:53. | :05:55. | |
habit of laying into Government policy, but here he really has stuck | :05:56. | :05:59. | |
the boot in, and here's not just question the operational elements, | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
he has questioned the political policy behind what the Government | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
are doing. Ministers are saying that these extra places they are asking | :06:08. | :06:11. | |
for will only mean a few hundred prisoners sharing cells for a few | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
weeks, but the problem is that almost two thirds of prisons are | :06:16. | :06:20. | |
overcrowded. Wandsworth has almost 600 more prisoners than it should | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
have. The other thing they say is that if you want to put an extra | :06:26. | :06:29. | |
bunk bed in a cell, that can be done, but do you have the staff and | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
resources to do something with those was and is, because if you don't, | :06:33. | :06:36. | |
they get frustrated and then you get trouble. | :06:37. | :06:38. | |
Gary O'Donoghue, thank you very much. | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
at one of the prisons affected. Football now, | :06:44. | :06:44. | |
and England's World Cup campaign finally gets under way tonight. | :06:45. | :06:47. | |
Around 3,000 England fans have accompanied the team to the city of | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
Manaus, where they take on Italy. From there, | :06:51. | :06:52. | |
our chief sports correspondent Dan Roan sent this report. | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
It is an away fixture like no other. Match day morning in Manaus, and the | :06:58. | :07:10. | |
fans take a stroll along the Amazon. Few are expecting a stroll against | :07:11. | :07:17. | |
Italy in the heat and humidity. It is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity | :07:18. | :07:20. | |
to come here, not just to get to the World Cup but also to get out of the | :07:21. | :07:28. | |
Amazon. It is a dog in the morning, ridiculously hot. I think both teams | :07:29. | :07:36. | |
will struggle. They will bring the youngsters on in the last 20 | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
minutes. England got a first look at the Stadium here last night, and | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
must now hope weeks of training have prepared them for the extreme | :07:45. | :07:46. | |
conditions they will face here in the rainforest. We have grown and | :07:47. | :07:52. | |
improved. We have been together a lot longer and have had two years to | :07:53. | :07:59. | |
get used to what this manager wants. Roy Hodgson picked a useful squad, | :08:00. | :08:03. | |
but now comes a defining moment for the manager and his players. | :08:04. | :08:10. | |
It is a massive barometer for how far this team has come city took the | :08:11. | :08:16. | |
job. He has evolved the team, brought in young players, and this | :08:17. | :08:19. | |
is the biggest test that this group of players have got. Despite the | :08:20. | :08:25. | |
location, support is not a problem for England. The team and their fans | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
have come a long way. But the heat is about to be turned up. We are | :08:32. | :08:37. | |
about to learn a lot about this young England team. We have already | :08:38. | :08:39. | |
had a boost ahead of kick-off tonight occurs the Italian | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
goalkeeper and captain Jen Luigi Buffon has been ruled out through | :08:46. | :08:53. | |
injury. They know that what happens here this evening will have a big | :08:54. | :08:56. | |
influence on the rest of their World Cup journey. It is a game that they | :08:57. | :08:58. | |
dare not lose. Dan Roan sent this report. | :08:59. | :09:05. | |
The Queen's baton has arrived in Scotland ahead of the start | :09:06. | :09:07. | |
of the Commonwealth games in Glasgow next month. | :09:08. | :09:09. | |
It follows a 100,000-mile journey across 69 | :09:10. | :09:10. | |
countries, as Lorna Gordon reports. It has travelled through the nations | :09:11. | :09:21. | |
and territories of the Commonwealth, and today that journey was reflected | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
as the battle arrived across the border, delivered into Scottish | :09:26. | :09:33. | |
hands as it crossed the River Tweed. -- the baton. Enthusiastic crowds | :09:34. | :09:44. | |
welcomed it. It was great walking across the bridge and arriving in | :09:45. | :09:49. | |
Coldstream. Next stop, Edinburgh and a 21 gun salute. | :09:50. | :09:56. | |
Through the streets of the nation's capital, visitors and locals and | :09:57. | :10:03. | |
fused as they watched the baton's progress. From the centre of the | :10:04. | :10:06. | |
city to the Portobello sure, families and friends cheering it on | :10:07. | :10:12. | |
its way. It is being relaxed journey through the of Scotland today. | :10:13. | :10:16. | |
People have stopped to touch the baton, take photographs. It has been | :10:17. | :10:24. | |
very friendly. It was fabulous! Great for the kids, great to see the | :10:25. | :10:33. | |
baton through. The baton will now go on to more than 400 communities | :10:34. | :10:36. | |
before the start of the summer's Commonwealth | :10:37. | :10:37. |
