Donald Trump and Hillary clinton have both been explaining how | :00:45. | :00:47. | |
they will fight the so called Islamic State group - | :00:48. | :00:49. | |
we'll discuss that in half an hour with Katty Kay. | :00:50. | :00:52. | |
And I've got a special report from Ukraine's border with Crimea, | :00:53. | :00:54. | |
as tensions on the peninsula are rising. | :00:55. | :01:17. | |
We will connect with all the latest at the Olympics but before that I | :01:18. | :01:22. | |
want to talk about Ukraine. Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei | :01:23. | :01:25. | |
Lavrov today appealed for calm after the latest flare up | :01:26. | :01:27. | |
with Ukraine over the annexed Last week Moscow accused Kiev | :01:28. | :01:30. | |
of armed attacks into the region. Our Correspondent, Tom Burridge, | :01:31. | :01:42. | |
sent this report from This is how a summer holiday here | :01:43. | :01:59. | |
starts RNs. This is not an international border for much of the | :02:00. | :02:06. | |
world. Everyone here is Ukranian. Their homes, hotels or family on the | :02:07. | :02:10. | |
other side in Russian controlled Crimea. After Russian claims of a | :02:11. | :02:17. | |
Ukrainian inspired plot, relations between the countries have hit a new | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
low. Russian security agency claims hidden explosives in its video here | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
were intended for targets in Crimea. Ukraine says the whole story is a | :02:28. | :02:29. | |
fake. This video shows one of the accused. | :02:30. | :02:42. | |
His brother believes he's talking and rest and shows signs of torture | :02:43. | :02:48. | |
in another FSP film in which he makes another apparent confession. | :02:49. | :02:58. | |
His face is very swollen. He served until last August in Ukraine's work | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
in the east of the country but until he went missing a few days ago he | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
was a minibus driver. His brother thinks he was abducted and says the | :03:10. | :03:15. | |
idea he was in a special forces team is preposterousness of physically he | :03:16. | :03:21. | |
couldn't do it. He is overweight, he has a knee injury and hard breath. | :03:22. | :03:34. | |
He is a victim of political action. Truth or fake, Ukraine has put its | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
military on high alert after Russia said it would respond, but in the | :03:39. | :03:43. | |
Ukrainian region next to Crimea, few threat. Possibly only about less | :03:44. | :03:49. | |
based to some vague here because many Ukrainians now will not holiday | :03:50. | :03:55. | |
in Russian held Crimea. The atmosphere here in southern Ukraine | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
is relaxed because the idea of Russian military action here just | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
across the water from Crimea is on paper unlikely. The increase in | :04:05. | :04:10. | |
tension and rhetoric from Moscow is probably part of a wider strategy. | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
Russia has moved surface to air missiles on to Crimea. DS 400 can | :04:16. | :04:22. | |
shoot down a plane 1400 kilometres away. At the end of last week the | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
Russian navy held drills to deal with saboteurs in Crimea and Russian | :04:29. | :04:32. | |
word games began today in the Mediterranean. Tensions could be | :04:33. | :04:39. | |
aimed at influencing peace talks with Russian backed separatists to | :04:40. | :04:45. | |
the east. Crimea's at Minnesota border disrupts Ukrainian lives. | :04:46. | :04:50. | |
Ratcheting up the tension here destabilises the country. In this | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
south of Ukraine, calm, but after Russia's annexation of Crimea, | :04:56. | :05:03. | |
Ukraine and its allies have learned to expect the unexpected. Russia's | :05:04. | :05:12. | |
political strategy is rarely clear. Let's turn to South Africa, where a | :05:13. | :05:18. | |
court has sentenced a woman to ten years in prison for kidnapping a | :05:19. | :05:20. | |
baby. Zephany Nurse was | :05:21. | :05:22. | |
taken 19 years ago. The 51-year-old woman - | :05:23. | :05:24. | |
who is not being named - was arrested last year | :05:25. | :05:26. | |
after suspicions were raised when there was a similar-looking | :05:27. | :05:28. | |
girl at the child's school. DNA tests showed the | :05:29. | :05:30. | |
girls were sisters. Closure after nearly 20 years | :05:31. | :05:32. | |
of unanswered questions. The Nurse family have | :05:33. | :05:38. | |
welcomed the 10-year sentence imposed on the woman who | :05:39. | :05:40. | |
kidnapped their baby when she was I don't think there is any sentence | :05:41. | :05:43. | |
that will ever justify We are happy, over the moon, | :05:44. | :05:51. | |
but now it is all healing now. Celeste Nurse was | :05:52. | :05:58. | |
an 18-year-old mother stolen by a women dressed as a nurse | :05:59. | :06:00. | |
from her bedside in this Her identity came to light | :06:01. | :06:05. | |
in a remarkable coincidence when the Nurses' younger daughter | :06:06. | :06:13. | |
started school and became friends with a girl who bore | :06:14. | :06:16. | |
a striking resemblance to her. DNA tests later confirmed that | :06:17. | :06:19. | |
Zephany had been found. The now 19-year-old Zephany had been | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
living in this home just a few kilometres from her biological | :06:25. | :06:27. | |
parents this whole time. The 52-year-old woman | :06:28. | :06:36. | |
who had raised Zephany as her own has denied | :06:37. | :06:38. | |
any wrongdoing. During sentencing, the judge slammed | :06:39. | :06:39. | |
the woman, who cannot be identified for legal | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
reasons, for showing no Now Zephany, whose identity | :06:43. | :06:45. | |
is being protected, is expecting her own child, | :06:46. | :06:51. | |
and her family hopes this The day she's going to give | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
birth to her child, that that child will not be stolen, | :06:55. | :07:02. | |
she will get clarity with her own feelings and her own emotions | :07:03. | :07:06. | |
because that is the child she is I want her to feel how | :07:07. | :07:09. | |
her own mother felt. Zephany has returned | :07:10. | :07:15. | |
to the man who raised her after being reunited | :07:16. | :07:20. | |
with her biological parents. The Nurse family say that even | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
after this time they still do not have | :07:26. | :07:28. | |
their daughter back. For over a month the | :07:29. | :07:42. | |
Indian-administered state of Kashmir has been consumed | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
by lethal violence. More than 50 people have been killed | :07:46. | :07:46. | |
and more than 5000 injured in clashes between | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
police and protesters. They want independence | :07:50. | :07:50. | |
for the region. Justin Rowlatt has been there - | :07:51. | :07:52. | |
and sent this report. Kashmir is at a standstill during | :07:53. | :08:03. | |
the day but every evening the troops pull out. Then it is the protesters' | :08:04. | :08:12. | |
turn. Tear and smoke cannot protect the soldiers from the stones that | :08:13. | :08:20. | |
come from all directions. You don't know where the stones are coming | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
from. The problem is that they are running out of options in Kashmir. | :08:26. | :08:30. | |
India has ruled out independence but says it will not talk to hardline | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
separatists and has already devolved considerable powers. So it has | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
little option but to pour in more forces and hope the anger dies away. | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
But it shows few signs of doing that. This spate of violence in this | :08:46. | :08:54. | |
Muslim majority region, the worst in years, began more than a month ago | :08:55. | :08:59. | |
when a young militant was killed by security forces. Tens of thousands | :09:00. | :09:05. | |
turned out for his funeral. This is the first time his father has spoken | :09:06. | :09:15. | |
on television. TRANSLATION: His death has triggered a revolution, to | :09:16. | :09:22. | |
get freedom from India. India is determined that will not be the case | :09:23. | :09:26. | |
and last week the Indian Prime Minister tried to calm Kashmir. | :09:27. | :09:31. | |
TRANSLATION: The independence every Indian has, every Kashmiri has as | :09:32. | :09:39. | |
well. But there is a danger the Indian strategy will just entrench | :09:40. | :09:45. | |
militancy and violence. In the hospitals, the sunglasses hide | :09:46. | :09:49. | |
horrific eye injuries, the result of shotguns used to control the crowds, | :09:50. | :09:55. | |
and it isn't just shotguns. This is his blood? You say this is the | :09:56. | :10:01. | |
bullet that killed your son. TRANSLATION: Today it is my son, | :10:02. | :10:07. | |
tomorrow it will be someone else's. The police defend their tactics. Our | :10:08. | :10:14. | |
boys have firearms, they are not using them, there is restraint. | :10:15. | :10:18. | |
There are claims those weapons are used on protesters. It has happened | :10:19. | :10:25. | |
only in those cases where isolated troops are almost lynched. But | :10:26. | :10:32. | |
India's approach does not look restraint and Kashmir is not just a | :10:33. | :10:38. | |
local issue. India and Pakistan, both nuclear powers, claimed the | :10:39. | :10:44. | |
region, and until a long-term solution can be found here, Kashmir | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
will retain -- remains a potential flash point for a much | :10:50. | :10:53. | |
We'll report from the US shortly, because President Obama has declared | :10:54. | :11:01. | |
the US state of Louisiana a disaster area after unprecedented flooding. | :11:02. | :11:11. | |
The former Aston Villa striker, Dalian Atkinson, has died | :11:12. | :11:13. | |
after a taser was fired at him by police in Shropshire. | :11:14. | :11:15. | |
Officers were called to his father's home in the early | :11:16. | :11:18. | |
hours of the morning after they were alerted about | :11:19. | :11:20. | |
The 48-year-old suffered a cardiac arrest as he was being | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
Earlier, family and friends gave their reaction | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
Inevitably angry, frustrated, annoyed, overwhelmed. | :11:30. | :11:58. | |
What questions are going around in your head? | :11:59. | :12:00. | |
Because the damage is done, you've got to try to develop | :12:01. | :12:03. | |
preventatives through this, for example that's why I say | :12:04. | :12:05. | |
as soon as they deploy a taser, you've got to deploy an ambulance. | :12:06. | :12:08. | |
He was larger than life, one of the big characters | :12:09. | :12:11. | |
I got to the football club and Dalian was the one who stuck out | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
first because he was a big personality. | :12:17. | :12:17. | |
He always had a lot to say but he was a very funny guy. | :12:18. | :12:21. | |

areas have been swamped by what is being described | :13:48. | :13:50. | |
as historic flooding. In a part of the USA | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
used to severe weather, people say they have seen nothing | :13:55. | :13:57. | |
like it before. Parts of the state have been | :13:58. | :14:02. | |

and Alabama have also been affected, And with more rain due, | :14:50. | :14:51. | |
the true impact will only be known We will keep across that story on | :14:52. | :15:10. | |
the BBC. Let's turn to business News now. | :15:11. | :15:12. | |
The gossip website Gawker is fighting for its very survival. | :15:13. | :15:14. | |
They've filed for a bankruptcy auction - and today is the deadline | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
for preliminary bids for the struggling firm. | :15:18. | :15:19. | |
Samira Hussain is in New York for us. | :15:20. | :15:24. | |
Why this company, it is very well known around the world as a media | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
brand, why aren't they in bankruptcy? This goes back to a | :15:31. | :15:40. | |
lawsuit that they lost filed by the former professional wrestler Hulk | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
Hogan. He filed this lawsuit against them for invasion of privacy. Gawker | :15:46. | :15:51. | |
lost that but what makes the story interesting is that the person | :15:52. | :15:55. | |
funding the lawsuit was Peter Keel. He is a Silicon Valley tycoon, you | :15:56. | :16:03. | |
may remember him as one of the founders of PayPal. He funded this | :16:04. | :16:07. | |
lawsuit because he had an axe to grind against Gawker, as he alleges | :16:08. | :16:16. | |
they quoted him as being gay in 2007 and as a result he has had a | :16:17. | :16:20. | |
vendetta against them, so earlier this year, Gawker loses the lawsuit, | :16:21. | :16:29. | |
has to pay $140 million, cannot afford it and is trying to sell | :16:30. | :16:33. | |
themselves so they can stay afloat. I guess they will need to sell for | :16:34. | :16:40. | |
140 million. So now the question is who will throw their name into the | :16:41. | :16:46. | |
heart? Want media company had already suggested they were | :16:47. | :16:48. | |
interested, Ziff, but there are other players who could be | :16:49. | :16:59. | |
interested, online cup publications like Vox media for traditional media | :17:00. | :17:07. | |
like New York magazine. The challenge will be for the companies | :17:08. | :17:10. | |
to come up with that kind of cash, someone who can afford that $140 | :17:11. | :17:13. | |
million Bill. Thank you. A new law is set to comes | :17:14. | :17:17. | |
into effect in South Korea next month, how much can be spent | :17:18. | :17:20. | |
on entertaining business people. The idea is it will help | :17:21. | :17:22. | |
to fight corruption - but many argue the law | :17:23. | :17:25. | |
is too draconian. Our Seoul correspondent | :17:26. | :17:28. | |
Stephen Evans wondered what the consequences | :17:29. | :17:30. | |
might be - over a business lunch. This is a very nice restaurant. In | :17:31. | :17:44. | |
the middle of soul and its classic is must enter detainment territory, | :17:45. | :17:50. | |
but the rules will change next month. There will be strict limits | :17:51. | :17:57. | |
on this kind of timing. I have with me a government official and a | :17:58. | :18:02. | |
businessman. Under the new rules, entertainment will be limited to | :18:03. | :18:08. | |
about $30 a in restaurants and you cannot give gifts of more than $50 | :18:09. | :18:16. | |
ahead. Cash gifts, which are traditionally given at weddings, | :18:17. | :18:23. | |
cannot be more than $100 ahead. And one of the intriguing things is that | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
teachers are covered in this because parents give get stewed teachers to | :18:28. | :18:33. | |
get more attention for their children. | :18:34. | :18:57. | |
The government wants to do things for the citizens and people. The | :18:58. | :19:04. | |
loophole is that the law is focusing on the small individual journalists, | :19:05. | :19:11. | |
but you have still 20 odd newspapers here, and the only way they can | :19:12. | :19:18. | |
survive is through advertising subsidies by the big conglomerates | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
here and of course in return for getting the advertising, the | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
newspapers are very careful about writing critical stories about these | :19:31. | :19:36. | |
corporations. Oh, dear, the bill has arrived! It is more than $30 ahead. | :19:37. | :19:46. | |
But it is lucky the new law doesn't come in place for a month, otherwise | :19:47. | :19:53. | |
we would all be in deep trouble. Steve Evans there. | :19:54. | :19:58. | |
Let's take a look at the Olympics medal table. | :19:59. | :20:00. | |
As things currently stand, the United States remain firmly | :20:01. | :20:02. | |
in the lead with 26 gold medals, Team GB stays in second place | :20:03. | :20:05. | |
with one more gold, after that win in the dressage. | :20:06. | :20:08. | |

It is one month since the attempted coup in Turkey and since then tens | :20:33. | :20:38. | |
of thousands of people have been detained and displaced. Today court | :20:39. | :20:45. | |
cases have been raided and prosecutors and judicial workers | :20:46. | :20:50. | |
arrested. There have been angry exchanges between Turkey and western | :20:51. | :20:54. | |
powers, but how have these affected the country? | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
A scene from hell unleashed by rebel soldiers. | :21:00. | :21:05. | |
A coup attempt that ultimately failed. | :21:06. | :21:14. | |
Today they guard a building whose scars remain. | :21:15. | :21:18. | |
Turkey's seat of power gouged by rockets. | :21:19. | :21:23. | |
Halls where political debate raged are now just mangled debris. | :21:24. | :21:29. | |
Those almost overthrown say it has united the country. | :21:30. | :21:34. | |
When it comes to attacking our democracy | :21:35. | :21:36. | |
in such a cowardly manner, we will stand together. | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
What do you say to criticism from Western governments | :21:43. | :21:44. | |
that enemies are being rounded up and that Turkey's EU accession talks | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
They are more concerned about the coup plotters, | :21:50. | :21:56. | |
those cowards, than they are for the Turkish people. | :21:57. | :21:59. | |
I'm sorry, this is what the Turkish people say, we're disappointed. | :22:00. | :22:06. | |
This is when you realise the enormity of what happened. | :22:07. | :22:09. | |
The heart of Turkey's democracy hit by its own people. | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
But has the government gone too far in its response? | :22:14. | :22:20. | |
Over 23,000 have been detained or arrested. | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
Around 80,000 suspended, accused of backing the coup or the | :22:24. | :22:26. | |
alleged mastermind, the excelled cleric Fethullah Gulen, whose | :22:27. | :22:30. | |
Among those held in prison, students from military schools, | :22:31. | :22:37. | |
Their families say they were on a training exercise, | :22:38. | :22:43. | |
TRANSLATION: My brother was being trained to serve | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
We are all against the coup, but the innocent ones | :22:49. | :22:56. | |
With the state of emergency, other spheres | :22:57. | :23:03. | |
The fear is political opponents are now | :23:04. | :23:07. | |
labelled Gulen sympathisers, like this actor who has been suspended. | :23:08. | :23:13. | |
Artistic and intellectual expression already face pressure. | :23:14. | :23:16. | |
Now the room for debate is even smaller. | :23:17. | :23:21. | |
TRANSLATION: We have probably been suspended because we opposed | :23:22. | :23:23. | |
the government in the past two years, | :23:24. | :23:26. | |
but it is laughable to say we're Gulenists. | :23:27. | :23:31. | |
They're trying to turn down our voices. | :23:32. | :23:33. | |

At nightly rallies they came together | :23:36. | :23:42. | |

Hope for a new Turkey rides high, but the | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
A battle in Aleppo between rebel forces and government troops | :23:55. | :24:11. | |
continues. The BBC has been hearing what life is like in the city for | :24:12. | :24:13. | |
its residents. At the moment everything is OK, | :24:14. | :24:16. | |
after the breaking of the siege Especially when the way to Aleppo | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
is open, that we can get some Bread is available, everything | :24:22. | :24:28. | |

here, because the situation is so bad because of the rockets | :24:36. | :24:39. | |
that Assad and the Russians and their colleagues are throwing | :24:40. | :24:48. | |

kind of safety living here. I live in a rebel held areas, life | :24:55. | :25:28. | |
is not easy here but for the last week it has been even worse, the | :25:29. | :25:35. | |

them both for speaking to the BBC from Aleppo. Another half are to | :25:53. | :25:54. | |
come. I will begin this forecast talking | :25:55. | :26:08. | |
about North America because we have some interesting weather conditions | :26:09. | :26:11. | |
there. Across | :26:12. | :26:12. |
