let's have a look at some of the main stories here. The truce has

:00:13.:00:21.

come into effect in Syria. It was brokered by Russia and the USA.

:00:22.:00:29.

Where does President Assad fit in? David Cameron has left the politics

:00:30.:00:35.

and is no longer a MP. He announced this decision today, just a couple

:00:36.:00:39.

of months when he stood down as Prime Minister.

:00:40.:02:03.

It is the United States that is supporting rebels groups on the

:02:04.:02:10.

ground. They sent letters to respective parties telling them what

:02:11.:02:14.

is expected from them in the framework of this truce. So they

:02:15.:02:19.

have no options, technically, but looking closer, President Assad has

:02:20.:02:25.

survived so far and he is offering himself out as a partner in the war

:02:26.:02:29.

against terrorism. This is what he will say, we will liberate this

:02:30.:02:32.

country, we will reclaim every single village in Syria from these

:02:33.:02:38.

terrorists. Who are these terrorists, for him? Everyone. So he

:02:39.:02:44.

has done something very provocative, going into an area formerly held by

:02:45.:02:48.

rebels, making quite a statement that this is no our territory. He is

:02:49.:02:56.

trying to make a show of force before the ceasefire, saying,

:02:57.:03:01.

hockey, a few weeks ago this area was under... This is the riot? A few

:03:02.:03:07.

weeks ago this post was a no-go area for Government forces. -- this was a

:03:08.:03:14.

riot. Sending a strong message saying this is not the end of it. We

:03:15.:03:20.

will not stop until we reclaim and take back every single village. --

:03:21.:03:25.

this was Daraya. This is a strong message about the ceasefire by

:03:26.:03:28.

itself because the ceasefire, some people think this is the end, no it

:03:29.:03:33.

is not, it is the end of a phase may be and there are a lot of questions

:03:34.:03:38.

regarding the fermentation and about the exceptions and the

:03:39.:03:41.

interpretations of the so-called terrorist groups on the ground that

:03:42.:03:47.

the Russians and Americans will cooperate together to target. So

:03:48.:03:51.

there are big questions but at least it will help relieve the situation

:03:52.:03:53.

of these civilians who suffered during the past months and years and

:03:54.:04:00.

this area of Aleppo, they were deprived of the basic needs,

:04:01.:04:04.

medical, food, all these things we expect to see following inside the

:04:05.:04:07.

city starting from today or tomorrow. We're lucky to be able to

:04:08.:04:13.

turn to our colleagues at BBC Arabic on stories like this.

:04:14.:04:18.

Let's turn to a story we have covered several times a couple of

:04:19.:04:23.

weeks ago, an NFL player was a huge controversy by not standing for the

:04:24.:04:28.

US national anthem. He did this during the NFL preseason.

:04:29.:04:33.

Well, we've just had the NFL opening weekend and other players

:04:34.:04:36.

Marcus Peters of the Kansas City Chiefs

:04:37.:04:40.

was one of several players who raised fists or knelt.

:04:41.:04:44.

Cappernick's been talking about what he's trying to achieve.

:04:45.:04:52.

The message is that we have a lot of issues in this country that we need

:04:53.:04:57.

to deal with. We have a lot of people that are pressed, we have a

:04:58.:05:02.

lot of people that are not treated equally, are not given equal

:05:03.:05:06.

opportunities. Police brutality is a huge thing that needs to be

:05:07.:05:10.

addressed. There are a lot of issues that need to be talked about, need

:05:11.:05:15.

to be brought to light, we need to fix those. You have probably seen

:05:16.:05:22.

from the top he was wearing, he plays for the San Francisco 49ers.

:05:23.:05:32.

His jersey is number six in the top sellers list. There is no way that

:05:33.:05:36.

shirt would have been anywhere near the top six before this. There is

:05:37.:05:41.

some suggestion that what he's doing is resonating, and it is selling

:05:42.:05:45.

very well! If you want to get more information

:05:46.:05:50.

on that story and on the NFL generally, you can get that on the

:05:51.:05:54.

BBC Sport app. And we will still the number of

:05:55.:05:58.

sports stories now. I want to focus on one athlete at the Paralympics,

:05:59.:06:03.

she is from Belgium and she won a silver in the wheelchair racing. It

:06:04.:06:09.

has emerged patchy signed euthanasia papers in 2008. Some of the Belgian

:06:10.:06:15.

press are reporting patchy might have chosen to take a life after the

:06:16.:06:21.

Rio Games, something she has denied. She addressed all this in an

:06:22.:06:23.

extraordinary press conference. It was his cell door on Saturday

:06:24.:06:33.

that the Marieke Vervoort onto the podium, but it was a decision she

:06:34.:06:37.

took eight years ago that forced her into the spotlight. -- it was a

:06:38.:06:42.

silver. She suffers from an incurable disease and in 2008 some

:06:43.:06:47.

papers allowing her to take a lie. Euthanasia is legal in Brazil --

:06:48.:06:53.

units that euthanasia is illegal and Belgium but illegal in Brazil.

:06:54.:07:03.

I am still enjoying every moment is and whether the moment comes then I

:07:04.:07:08.

have more bad days than good days then I have my euthanasia papers but

:07:09.:07:13.

the time is not there yet. The pain of living with her condition led to

:07:14.:07:18.

her exploring the option of euthanasia. Constant pain, seizures

:07:19.:07:23.

and paralysis of the legs off and leaves her barely able to sleep.

:07:24.:07:28.

Being open about her decision she hopes to create understanding and

:07:29.:07:35.

break the stigma around the issue. I hope other countries like Brazil

:07:36.:07:40.

can talk about this and it is not a taboo. That it makes people live

:07:41.:07:51.

longer. It does not mean they have two dry two weeks after they sign

:07:52.:07:58.

the papers. I -- they do not have to dry. I signed my papers in 2008 and

:07:59.:08:06.

now it is 2016. In spite of the challenges she achieved a

:08:07.:08:12.

distinctive career. She won the 100 metres gold in London 2012 and next

:08:13.:08:16.

Saturday she will defend that vital in the last event of her final

:08:17.:08:21.

Paralympics but it certainly will not be her final chapter. -- defend

:08:22.:08:29.

that title. People been saying whatever they

:08:30.:08:34.

think about euthanasia it may have made people think again.

:08:35.:08:35.

Owen Morgan is England's one-day and he's chosen not to tour

:08:36.:08:40.

Bangladesh because of security concerns.

:08:41.:08:42.

It's not gone down well with former England captain.

:08:43.:08:51.

Alex Hales is the second player who's opted out.

:08:52.:08:55.

No international side has toured Bangladesh since 20 people were

:08:56.:08:58.

Let's bring in will parade. Not much sympathy from Michael Vaughan for

:08:59.:09:14.

this decision but from other quarters has he found any? This one

:09:15.:09:19.

has divided opinion. You heard Michael Vaughan's. And he said there

:09:20.:09:26.

would be a bit of banter created and he will have to take some stick.

:09:27.:09:32.

Nasser Hussain said he should be with the team but the British

:09:33.:09:36.

Foreign Office said there is a heightened threat of further attacks

:09:37.:09:41.

in Bangladesh so they cannot be blamed not for going all that threat

:09:42.:09:47.

level applies to many other European cities, including London. The

:09:48.:09:51.

standard and captain says as a colleague and friend everyone

:09:52.:09:54.

respects the decision. Graeme Swann says if he was in the situation he

:09:55.:10:00.

would not go either. Ben Stokes has backed them also. The director of

:10:01.:10:05.

cricket suggested there would be no impact on future selection for

:10:06.:10:14.

players not to go. England have 14 scheduled games before they begin

:10:15.:10:19.

their tour against Bangladesh. They sure they cannot ditch their captain

:10:20.:10:23.

who led them to this great run, the best one day run in a long time.

:10:24.:10:33.

They received assurances from some 25 people in various roles, so to

:10:34.:10:39.

get that many people on the plane is impressive, with that at six weeks

:10:40.:10:43.

ago the hall tonight was off so to get them on the plane at this stage

:10:44.:10:49.

and only having two not going is pretty impressive.

:10:50.:10:50.

Thank you for filling us in. US Ryder cup captain

website at the moment is the BBC has announced it has lost the contract

:12:03.:12:23.

to show the next series of The Great British Baked. Channel 4 have signed

:12:24.:12:28.

a deal to take the show. The company says money and further development

:12:29.:12:31.

of the band were key to the decision. Here is the editor of

:12:32.:12:34.

Broadcast Magazine. The production company at the BBC have been locked

:12:35.:12:38.

in talks for many months so there were huge question marks. It was

:12:39.:12:45.

always a sense that they were iron out the differences and find some

:12:46.:12:49.

common ground and now that has not happened and the big surprise is

:12:50.:12:55.

that it went to Channel 4. ITV seems a more natural home for this kind of

:12:56.:13:00.

show but Channel 4 moved quickly, they have a strong relationship with

:13:01.:13:05.

the production company. There is already a sense, the king of social

:13:06.:13:09.

media, people saying I will not watch it. The company that makes the

:13:10.:13:17.

show will stay the same. They own the rights to the format. If they

:13:18.:13:21.

can convince the talent to go as well that will be a big thing. Loft

:13:22.:13:27.

on the right and they can make sure exactly the same way. -- aloft.

:13:28.:13:34.

There is no sense that because it is a commercial channel it will change

:13:35.:13:39.

the show. We expect to see some changes, there may be some product

:13:40.:13:43.

placement, for example. They have sold the show around the world in a

:13:44.:13:50.

different territories and Love already has the right and America

:13:51.:13:54.

where they tried to treat an American hit based on the show. --

:13:55.:14:01.

creates an American hit. Bit of game an odd way. It was a mid week BBC

:14:24.:14:27.

circus and it will be interesting to see how the relationship between the

:14:28.:14:32.

BBC and Love Productions goes from here.

:14:33.:14:42.

We are light in the BBC newsroom. Our lead story comes from Senator.

:14:43.:14:48.

It was brokered by the Americans and Russians. So far it is holding. Up,

:14:49.:14:56.

if you are outside the UK it is world News America. Much more on the

:14:57.:15:03.

ceasefire in setting up and a report from a town in Syria recently

:15:04.:15:07.

liberated from the Islamic state. In the UK the News at ten is next. The

:15:08.:15:12.

Durham's plans for expanding selection in schools have been

:15:13.:15:17.

presented -- the Government's plans. We will have a full report.

:15:18.:15:21.

Now, an unlikely but important story.

:15:22.:15:24.

George Clooney, the actor, commissioned a report

:15:25.:15:26.

Today it was released - and it's headline claim is that both

:15:27.:15:32.

sides of the conflict there have been getting

:15:33.:15:34.

In particular, the finger is pointed at President Salva Kiir,

:15:35.:15:43.

Civil war has spawned the world's youngest country apart. For nearly

:15:44.:16:04.

three years the fall out with two of South Sudan's most powerful men, the

:16:05.:16:09.

former vice president and the president, led to ethnic -based

:16:10.:16:13.

violence and terrible atrocities committed by both sides. 2.5 million

:16:14.:16:19.

people forced from their homes, millions more need food aid. Now an

:16:20.:16:24.

investigative unit backed by George Clooney has linked the men to. This

:16:25.:16:32.

war is about the rival factions trying to gain control of the state.

:16:33.:16:39.

We're talking everything from airlines to banks, oil companies,

:16:40.:16:44.

mining companies, casinos. It seems a very small number of people

:16:45.:16:48.

control a large part of the economy in the country and many of these

:16:49.:16:55.

people are also the people in power. The report alleges dodgy business

:16:56.:17:00.

deal and nepotism. The President's wife and the seven of the children

:17:01.:17:04.

are linked to a range of businesses and it says a 12-year-old son had a

:17:05.:17:09.

25% share in a holding company and the Clintons brother-in-law's

:17:10.:17:11.

company supplied fuel to the military. -- and his brother-in-law.

:17:12.:17:24.

It is the -- it appears he was geared -- engaged in negotiations to

:17:25.:17:30.

sell oil production for weapons to fuel his rebellion. We also got

:17:31.:17:33.

evidence a nephew of his was involved in a file and hostile

:17:34.:17:41.

takeover of a security company. Several of the members of the

:17:42.:17:45.

company were held hostage and forced to sign cheques. The report says

:17:46.:17:53.

numerous generals have luxury villas in different countries and here in

:17:54.:17:58.

Nairobi both men have homes in the same upscale neighbourhood. George

:17:59.:18:07.

Clooney and rights activist took a practical interest in sedan and

:18:08.:18:09.

South Sudan for many years and their report says the endeavour to contact

:18:10.:18:16.

every individual and entity and in most cases they did not respond. A

:18:17.:18:21.

larger peacekeeping force is due to bring a piece of the back on track

:18:22.:18:25.

but there is the confidence the crisis will be dissolved any time

:18:26.:18:31.

soon. We have a report on Kenya, India,

:18:32.:18:36.

USA and the UK and now let's turn to Saudi Arabia. One year ago there was

:18:37.:18:42.

a stampede during the Hajj pilgrimage, killing thousands. This

:18:43.:18:45.

year an estimated 1.8 million Muslims are travelling to America in

:18:46.:18:49.

Saudi Arabia and they have gathered in a place called Mina. They go to

:18:50.:18:57.

perform a ritual known as the stoning of the devil. It was there

:18:58.:19:04.

where the stampede took place last year.

:19:05.:19:08.

Our reporter is there. An endless flow of people from all around the

:19:09.:19:12.

world, pilgrims come here to this huge tented city of's released only

:19:13.:19:17.

devil. They stay for two or three days. Many of them are holding

:19:18.:19:24.

umbrellas because it is a very hot, about 40 Celsius. The humidity is

:19:25.:19:30.

high as well. It is mainly in Mina were tragic events happen during the

:19:31.:19:35.

Hajj. During the past decade numerous accidents have taken, the

:19:36.:19:40.

worst being the stampede last year and killed hundreds, possibly

:19:41.:19:45.

thousands, of pilgrims. The Saudi authorities say they are taking all

:19:46.:19:49.

the necessary measures to provide maximum protection for the pilgrims.

:19:50.:19:56.

We are walking on a multilevel bridge built recently by Saudi

:19:57.:19:59.

Arabia for pedestrians only. Pilgrims walk along this way until

:20:00.:20:05.

they reach the area where the Stallings starts.

:20:06.:20:16.

-- where the stoning starts. This year is not as crowded as previous

:20:17.:20:20.

years, especially in Mina. It is much calmer and better because we

:20:21.:20:31.

have space to perform rituals. This year it is not like the other

:20:32.:20:36.

here. Everything is nice and organised. We find everything we

:20:37.:20:50.

need. This is a blessing. 'S I find things more organised this

:20:51.:20:56.

year with the roads and the gates. Entrances to the for the places.

:20:57.:21:02.

This is one of the main pillars which Muslims believe represent the

:21:03.:21:06.

devil. It is the biggest one of them. Stoning starts and continues

:21:07.:21:15.

for a few days. The loud knowledge again here is that of the huge fans

:21:16.:21:23.

all around us -- the loud noise. When the stoning is done the Hajj is

:21:24.:21:28.

almost come to an end and then they go to the grand Mosque in Mecca one

:21:29.:21:30.

last time and then they can leave. Last week Donald Trump addressed

:21:31.:21:36.

a large annual gathering of religious conservatives called

:21:37.:21:38.

the Value Voters summit. It's about asserting a set

:21:39.:21:40.

of values that some feel Here's Rajini Vaidyanathan trying

:21:41.:21:43.

to understand what those values are. It is difficult to be a conservative

:21:44.:22:01.

Christian in America today. They have taken God out of the country

:22:02.:22:08.

and we need to get God back in. It does not matter who is elected

:22:09.:22:11.

president because God is on his throne. A recent survey nine out of

:22:12.:22:20.

ten Christians say America does not represent their values. Many

:22:21.:22:25.

freedoms have been taken away. Freedom of religion has been taken

:22:26.:22:31.

away. We moved so far in the other direction we lost sight of what made

:22:32.:22:36.

America exceptional. What American values mean today? We live a life

:22:37.:22:45.

with God and brought by the Bible. Basic instructions before leaving

:22:46.:22:50.

Earth. Any questions? Society is changing in the USA. Abortion has

:22:51.:22:56.

been legalised and more recently same-sex marriage. The country is

:22:57.:22:59.

more diverse than ever, not in terms of just demographics but also

:23:00.:23:04.

release. Same-sex marriage, divorce, abortion. Any of those policies are

:23:05.:23:11.

against God's will. When a woman is sexually active she

:23:12.:23:16.

should be responsible and not thinking I don't believe what this

:23:17.:23:19.

baby out will abort it. The baby should have rights as well. Some of

:23:20.:23:26.

the changes brought about in the last few years like gay marriage

:23:27.:23:30.

they reflect the changing society though, aren't they? They are. And

:23:31.:23:40.

do you support it? No. The Christian population share fell, but faith

:23:41.:23:45.

still matters. One third of Republican voters are white

:23:46.:23:50.

evangelicals, more than 70% say the reward Trump. I vote for Donald

:23:51.:23:56.

Trump because I'm concerned for these as soon -- Supreme Court

:23:57.:24:00.

nominations. The next president will get the court appointments. I

:24:01.:24:05.

believe we need to elect a non-career politicians. Hillary or

:24:06.:24:16.

Tron? Neither. -- Hillary Donald Trump. We must decide whether we

:24:17.:24:22.

support someone who does not share all our values but does support some

:24:23.:24:30.

of them. He is easily times married philanderer who does not conduct his

:24:31.:24:36.

business by Christian values. -- three times married. Defining

:24:37.:24:40.

Christian values depends who you speak to. This country is divided

:24:41.:24:46.

and Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump of different solutions on how to

:24:47.:24:50.

bring the country back together. That is all for today. Thank you for

:24:51.:24:55.

watching. I will be back at the same time tomorrow.
