The world. Our hard-working moment is a Nigerian father recognises his | :00:12. | :00:21. | |
daughter in footage released by Boko Haram Romeu showing kidnapped | :00:22. | :00:27. | |
schoolgirls. Thousands are helped to safety after torrential rain brings | :00:28. | :00:30. | |
flooding to the southern United States. The waters will continue to | :00:31. | :00:38. | |
rise in many areas and so this is no time to let our guard down. We | :00:39. | :00:45. | |
actually have to remain vigilant. Britain wins three gold medals in | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
two hours pushing China down into third place in the medals table. Max | :00:50. | :00:51. | |
Whitlock wins double gold. The father of one of the missing | :00:52. | :01:12. | |
Chibok schoolgirls has confirmed to the BBC that his daughter is among a | :01:13. | :01:19. | |
group of girls who appear in a new video released by the Islamist | :01:20. | :01:24. | |
militants, will grow around. More than 270 girls were taken from their | :01:25. | :01:26. | |
school dormitories in April 2014 during the night. It is believed | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
that the group is still holding more than 200 of them here in the vast | :01:30. | :01:41. | |
Zambezi Forest. -- Sambisa forest. The families of the girls have held | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
regular protests, to increase pressure on the Nigerian government. | :01:47. | :01:50. | |
Our correspondent in Lagos is Martin Patience. | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
Kidnapped as schoolgirls, two years on they are now young women. | :01:55. | :01:57. | |
Appearing physically weak and traumatised by their captivity, | :01:58. | :01:59. | |
it's hard to imagine what they've been through. | :02:00. | :02:03. | |
In this propaganda video, the masked militant questions | :02:04. | :02:05. | |
She says that many of the girls have been badly injured | :02:06. | :02:11. | |
in military air strikes, and she calls on the government | :02:12. | :02:13. | |
to release Boko Haram prisoners in order to secure | :02:14. | :02:15. | |
The students were kidnapped from their school in Chibok | :02:16. | :02:23. | |
Driven into the forest, their abductions sparked | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
international outrage and has shone a spotlight on the brutal | :02:28. | :02:29. | |
But this May, renewed hope for the families, after one | :02:30. | :02:40. | |
Forced to marry a fighter, Amina had a baby. | :02:41. | :02:50. | |
The government is under intense pressure to free the girls. | :02:51. | :02:59. | |
It says it is in talks with the militants, but it needs | :03:00. | :03:02. | |
to be doubly sure that it's speaking to the right people. | :03:03. | :03:05. | |
As for the girls' families, the agony and the anger goes on. | :03:06. | :03:08. | |
And while the world focuses on the fate of the schoolgirls, | :03:09. | :03:10. | |
aid agencies warn of a growing humanitarian crisis. | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
Thousands have been killed by the Boko Haram insurgency | :03:15. | :03:16. | |
and more than 2 million displaced by the fighting. | :03:17. | :03:18. | |
This is a conflict far bigger than just Chibok. | :03:19. | :03:20. | |
Martin Patience, BBC News, Lagos. | :03:21. | :03:34. | |
Well, as we were saying a moment ago, the father of one girl, | :03:35. | :03:37. | |
has spoken to the BBC's Hausa Service. | :03:38. | :03:39. | |
Samuel Yaga described his distress at seeing his terrified | :03:40. | :03:41. | |
TRANSLATION: The fact is we are overwhelmed with a feeling of | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
depression. It is like being beaten and being stopped from crying. You | :03:47. | :03:50. | |
want to watch your daughter but there is nothing you can do. It is | :03:51. | :03:52. | |
really heartbreaking. Well, Martin Patience - | :03:53. | :03:59. | |
says the video will bring mixed feelings for the families | :04:00. | :04:02. | |
of these girls. I think also renewed sense of hope | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
for these families. It has been two years since their daughters were | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
abducted. Initially, they got no information and they criticise the | :04:14. | :04:15. | |
previous administration for not taking enough action in order to | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
rescue their daughters. There was a period of goodwill for the current | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
government. It was felt among some of the families that they were at | :04:26. | :04:27. | |
least putting pressure on book or ramp. And we have seen the military | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
make real gains against the militants in the north-east of | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
Nigeria. But the fact remains that in a two year period, only one girl | :04:38. | :04:41. | |
has managed to escape and more than 200 are still missing. I think there | :04:42. | :04:47. | |
is still desperation, but as we heard from that man there, yes, | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
Wilder is a great deal of sadness, he stated that he had a renewed | :04:52. | :04:56. | |
sense of hope that perhaps one day his daughter may come home. | :04:57. | :05:14. | |
To the US state of Louisiana - where flooding has killed at least | :05:15. | :05:17. | |
three people and forced thousands from their homes. | :05:18. | :05:19. | |
The situation has been described as an "unprecedented flood | :05:20. | :05:21. | |
The Governor of Louisiana says the worst of the storm has passed | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
In Baton Rouge, Louisiana, rescuers came across a car. | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
Sinking in the floodwaters, the driver still inside. | :05:31. | :05:32. | |
"I'm drowning", she tells them, before being dragged to safety | :05:33. | :05:34. | |
Her first thought is of her dog who was also inside. | :05:35. | :05:54. | |
Then the pet too is plucked to safety from the murky waters. | :05:55. | :06:07. | |
40 miles east, another remarkable rescue. | :06:08. | :06:09. | |
A lorry driver whose vehicle was swept off | :06:10. | :06:11. | |
He'd spent eight hours clinging to a fallen tree. | :06:12. | :06:16. | |
They've seen rain in the Deep South, but they haven't | :06:17. | :06:18. | |
Three months' worth in a single night, according to one estimate, | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
causing some to flee with just the clothes on their backs. | :06:23. | :06:25. | |
We've lost trailers, our apartment, our house has gone under. | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
With more rain on the way, the race is on to save all they hold dear. | :06:29. | :06:38. | |
David Willis, BBC News, Washington. | :06:39. | :06:55. | |
Let's go to Baton Rouge and we can speak to Joe Connelly, | :06:56. | :06:58. | |
Thank you for being with us. I understand you are out and about. | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
How are you able to help the people affected by the floods? We are out | :07:04. | :07:11. | |
in boats and waders and we're doing everything we can to try to rescue | :07:12. | :07:22. | |
folks who are trapped in bridges, in canals. I have seen 30 boats and | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
individuals are just reaching out and doing all they can to help our | :07:29. | :07:36. | |
fellow citizens. What is the need to you are? Right now, the need is to | :07:37. | :07:41. | |
get people to safety. Our shelters are overwhelmed. Food, cots, | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
blankets, medical supplies, things of that nature. And then probably a | :07:48. | :07:53. | |
week from now, it will be folks who do not have flood insurance, helping | :07:54. | :07:57. | |
them to repair their lives, to rebuild their houses and replace | :07:58. | :08:00. | |
their clothes. We will start recovery efforts in the next week. | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
We will have things on Facebook, e-mails and Twitter are going out. | :08:06. | :08:11. | |
We're looking at pictures of the flooded areas. How are you getting | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
about? Right now, we're driving my pick-up truck as far as we can and | :08:19. | :08:23. | |
then we have a small flat boat that we are getting around in to go to | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
areas. We are on the Hammond highway and there is a massive rescue, | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
getting people across the canal into the other side so they can get to | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
safety. And have you been personally affected by the floods? No. My | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
church is dry and my house is dry. I live on a hill. And the church | :08:45. | :08:51. | |
members, my friends and family, they have been impacted. It doesn't | :08:52. | :08:54. | |
matter who they are, we're just trying to help everybody we right | :08:55. | :09:00. | |
now. We spoke a few weeks ago about baton rouge, and the shooting of | :09:01. | :09:07. | |
Alton Stirling. This is the last thing that baton rouge needs. That's | :09:08. | :09:11. | |
correct. It is the last thing we were need right now. The people are | :09:12. | :09:17. | |
coming together to help each other. We have to do what we can to move | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
above and beyond. And we are seeing the most extraordinary rescue is | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
happening, residents helping each other. Is there a sense of | :09:29. | :09:34. | |
solidarity. Yes, it is pulling us together, and we are doing | :09:35. | :09:39. | |
everything we can to try to make sure that we can get as many people | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
as we can to safety. Have you ever seen flooding like this? Not here in | :09:44. | :09:49. | |
baton rouge but I was in New Orleans with hurricane Katrina. With | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
hurricane Katrina, yes, but no flooding like this here. It is | :09:55. | :09:59. | |
unprecedented for baton rouge. Thank you very much for your time. | :10:00. | :10:19. | |
The Governor of Wisconsin has put his state's | :10:20. | :10:21. | |
national guard on alert - following violent protests | :10:22. | :10:23. | |
They followed the fatal shooting by the police of an armed | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
Cleanups are now underway after a night of clashes | :10:28. | :10:30. | |
where protesters fired gunshots, hurled bricks and set a petrol | :10:31. | :10:32. | |
Riot police eventually dispersed the crowd of around a hundred | :10:33. | :10:36. | |
people, and one police officer was taken to hospital | :10:37. | :10:38. | |
It is not about 100 people had gathered in Milwaukee's northern | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
suburbs to protest over the death. That number quickly grew. So, too, | :10:44. | :10:46. | |
did the violence. Two petrol stations and an number of other | :10:47. | :10:50. | |
businesses were set on fire. Police vehicles, also targeted. One officer | :10:51. | :10:56. | |
suffered head injuries after a brick was thrown through the window of his | :10:57. | :11:09. | |
squad car. We have a variety of estimates. But the crowd grew | :11:10. | :11:16. | |
rapidly. It was amazing how many people actually showed up in such a | :11:17. | :11:20. | |
short period of time. The violence was sparked after police shot dead a | :11:21. | :11:24. | |
23-year-old man trying to evade arrest. They say he was armed with a | :11:25. | :11:29. | |
stolen handgun, loaded with more than 20 rounds. The officer did not | :11:30. | :11:34. | |
know it at the time but there were 23 rounds in that gun. 23 rounds in | :11:35. | :11:42. | |
the gun that officer was staring at. And I want to make sure that we do | :11:43. | :11:45. | |
not lose any police officers in this community either. Police responded | :11:46. | :11:52. | |
to the armrest with force. Flooding the streets to try to restore order. | :11:53. | :11:57. | |
Several people were arrested, and could be many to come. We will be | :11:58. | :12:03. | |
reviewing all the video from the gas station, the video surrounding the | :12:04. | :12:07. | |
area. And if we know who is causing these fires or destroying this | :12:08. | :12:10. | |
property, I am certainly going to do everything I can to make sure those | :12:11. | :12:14. | |
individuals are arrested. Its impact will no doubt plays more strain on | :12:15. | :12:18. | |
the already fractured relationship between police and the | :12:19. | :12:19. | |
African-American community. A woman has died after being injured | :12:20. | :12:34. | |
when a man lashed out with a knife and set fire to a crowded Swiss | :12:35. | :12:37. | |
train near the Liechtenstein She was one of six people | :12:38. | :12:40. | |
who was hurt. The 27-year-old assailant, | :12:41. | :12:43. | |
who was arrested after the attack, The suspect also died | :12:44. | :12:45. | |
in hospital from his injuries. The police say there's no indication | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
of a political or terrorist In France, thousands of firefighters | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
tackling forest fires along the Mediterranean coast have managed | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
to bring most of them under control. The wildfires, which began last | :12:59. | :13:01. | |
week, had devastated more than 4,000 hectares and forced thousands | :13:02. | :13:04. | |
of people out of their homes. Stay with us on BBC World News, | :13:05. | :13:15. | |
still to come: A taste | :13:16. | :13:18. | |
of a centuries-old tradition The big crowds became bigger as the | :13:19. | :13:34. | |
funeral approached. As the lines of fans became longer, police prepared | :13:35. | :13:47. | |
for a huge job of crowd control. If you mean, Uganda's brutal former | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
dictator has died at the age of 80 and to has been buried in Saudi | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
Arabia where he lived in exile since being overthrown in 1979. | :13:56. | :14:08. | |
2 billion people around the world have seen the last total eclipse of | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
the sun to take place in this millennium. | :14:13. | :14:27. | |
A father has confirmed he saw his daughter in a video | :14:28. | :14:34. | |
released by Islamic militants Boko Haram - | :14:35. | :14:36. | |
showing the schoolgirls they kidnapped two years ago | :14:37. | :14:38. | |
More than 7,000 people have been rescued after torrential rain | :14:39. | :14:43. | |
in the southern US states of Louisiana and Mississippi. | :14:44. | :14:51. | |
Police in New York are searching for a gunman who shot dead an Imam | :14:52. | :14:54. | |
and his assistant as they walked home from Saturday prayers. | :14:55. | :14:57. | |
The city's Muslim community say they want the shootings to be | :14:58. | :15:00. | |
Maulama Akonjee was an imam from Bangladesh. | :15:01. | :15:12. | |
The 55-year-old had moved to New York two years ago. | :15:13. | :15:14. | |
His family described him as someone who brings peace | :15:15. | :15:16. | |
On Saturday afternoon he was walking home from prayers in the Queens area | :15:17. | :15:23. | |
of the city with his close friend when a gunman came up behind | :15:24. | :15:26. | |
them both, shooting them fatally in the head. | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
Police have issued this sketch of the man they are looking for. | :15:33. | :15:36. | |
The murder has left people in the local Muslim community | :15:37. | :15:38. | |
looking for answers, with some blaming Donald Trump's | :15:39. | :15:40. | |
We live in an era where people running for the highest office | :15:41. | :15:46. | |
in the land, and potentially being the most powerful people | :15:47. | :15:49. | |
in the world, are espousing hate towards Muslims even | :15:50. | :15:51. | |
in their own country, even citizens of their own country, | :15:52. | :15:53. | |
We feel really insecure and unsafe in a moment like this. | :15:54. | :16:01. | |
It is really threatening to us, and threatening to our future, | :16:02. | :16:04. | |
threatening to our mobility in the neighbourhood, | :16:05. | :16:06. | |
Police say no motive has been established, | :16:07. | :16:12. | |
and that so far there are no indications the men were targeted | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
The local community, however, insist it must be | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
The maiden flight of the largest aircraft in the world has been | :16:19. | :16:43. | |
The chief executive of its maker Hybrid Air Vehicles said | :16:44. | :16:47. | |
the Airlander had 'slight technical issues' and there was no longer time | :16:48. | :16:50. | |
The British-designed Airlander 10, which was originally | :16:51. | :16:53. | |
is a hybrid between a conventional built aircraft and an airship, | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
designed to carry less fuel than planes, but heavier loads | :16:58. | :16:59. | |
The US Olympic committee says four American swimmers were robbed | :17:00. | :17:08. | |
at gunpoint on their way home from a party. | :17:09. | :17:14. | |
Three times gold medallist swimmer Ryan Lahktee | :17:15. | :17:16. | |
that was stopped by thieves posing as police officers. | :17:17. | :17:20. | |
Their money and belongings were stolen. | :17:21. | :17:24. | |
Let's get more on the Olympics. This time, Team GB have had a good day. | :17:25. | :17:35. | |
Steve White has all the news. Yes, the medals have been coming thick | :17:36. | :17:38. | |
and fast, as well as the drama in the last few hours. Justin Rose has | :17:39. | :17:44. | |
won the men's golf after a tussle with Henrik Stenson Sweden that went | :17:45. | :17:51. | |
right down to the 72nd and final hole. The pair were tied going into | :17:52. | :17:57. | |
the fourth round but Stenson missed a birdie and part putt. The Briton | :17:58. | :18:04. | |
becomes the first winner of an Olympic golf tournament for 112 | :18:05. | :18:13. | |
years. Earlier on, Great Britain, who have never won an Olympic gold | :18:14. | :18:16. | |
medal in gymnastics, suddenly managed to win two. Max Whitlock | :18:17. | :18:19. | |
with both in the space of an hour. First the 23 year-old won | :18:20. | :18:30. | |
the men's floor exercise He edged out the home favourites | :18:31. | :18:32. | |
Diego Hypolito and Arthur Mariano who took silver and | :18:33. | :18:36. | |
bronze for Brazil. Whitlock immediately | :18:37. | :18:37. | |
return to the arena and took that title as well | :18:38. | :18:39. | |
with a score of 15.966. Team-mate Louis Smith took silver | :18:40. | :18:43. | |
with bronze going to the American, American gymnast Simone Biles has | :18:44. | :18:46. | |
won a third gold medal of the games. She easily won the | :18:47. | :18:54. | |
women's vault final. The 19-year-old averaged 15.966 | :18:55. | :18:55. | |
during her two vaults, well clear of silver medalist | :18:56. | :18:57. | |
Maria Paseka of Russia and Giulia Steingruber | :18:58. | :18:59. | |
of Switzerland who took bronze. The men's tennis final is underway, | :19:00. | :19:09. | |
with Great Britain's Andy Murray looking to defend his title | :19:10. | :19:12. | |
against Juan Martin del Potro. They are in the early stages of that | :19:13. | :19:24. | |
game, as you can see. Murray is serving the first game, holding | :19:25. | :19:27. | |
serve. 1-0 to the defending champion. Earlier on, Ekaterina | :19:28. | :19:33. | |
Makarova and Alina Pechiney now won the women's doubles title. | :19:34. | :19:39. | |
Kenya's Jemima Sumgong has claimed Olympic gold | :19:40. | :19:40. | |
The London Marathon winner took the race in 2 hours 24 | :19:41. | :19:44. | |
minutes and 4 seconds, just ahead of Bahrain's | :19:45. | :19:46. | |
Eunice Kirwa, who used to compete for Kenya, | :19:47. | :19:48. | |
Britain's Aly Dixon was 28th, two places ahead | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
They were ten and half minutes behind the winner. | :19:53. | :19:59. | |
Let's have a look at how the medals table stands. | :20:00. | :20:01. | |
United States lead the way with 26 golds | :20:02. | :20:03. | |
Great Britain's 13 golds puts them in second position, just ahead | :20:04. | :20:14. | |
of China who also have 13 golds, but 12 silvers | :20:15. | :20:16. | |
The mens 100m final takes place in a few hour's | :20:17. | :20:29. | |
looking for a third successive victory. | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
American Carl Lewis, who won the title twice himself, won't be | :20:35. | :20:37. | |
drawn on whether the Jamaican could go one better than him. | :20:38. | :20:43. | |
I don't really get into the predictions things. I never have. It | :20:44. | :20:50. | |
is unfair for me to inject myself into the race. But first and | :20:51. | :20:56. | |
foremost, I want to help them race, to get fast times, but I am an | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
American. It is interesting now, since even the last time around, I | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
started coaching in the United States. When I was in London, the | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
American team got creamed, and I started coaching at the University | :21:09. | :21:12. | |
of Houston, hoping to get some American sprinters. Now if I go out | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
there and start talking about everybody else, my guys will be all | :21:17. | :21:20. | |
over my head, so I say good luck everybody, but go USA. | :21:21. | :21:45. | |
The first Sunday of the Premier League season provided plenty | :21:46. | :21:48. | |
Manchester United made a winning start under Jose Mourinho. | :21:49. | :21:51. | |
A 3-1 success means he remains unbeaten on the opening day | :21:52. | :21:54. | |
New signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic was among the goal-scorers | :21:55. | :21:57. | |
Earlier Wayne Rooney had put United 2-nil ahead. | :21:58. | :22:00. | |
It was Juan Mata who set Mourinho's United on their way to victory. | :22:01. | :22:03. | |
I am very happy. The first 15 minutes were minutes of control. We | :22:04. | :22:07. | |
analysed well. They started the game with great intensity, using a lot of | :22:08. | :22:11. | |
pressure. But we kept our control. At this moment in his career, he | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
wants to win the Premier League. And we are going to fight for that. | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
Could he have the same affect on United that Eric Cantona did all | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
those years ago? I don't know what to say. This man is more than a | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
player. We hope to have him for the next two seasons, where I think he | :22:29. | :22:33. | |
can be phenomenal for the team. Also for the Premier League. The Premier | :22:34. | :22:39. | |
League has to be pleased with that. And that was just a warm up for what | :22:40. | :22:41. | |
was to come. Arsenal and Liverpool served up | :22:42. | :22:53. | |
a seven goal thriller at Emirates Stadium in Sunday's | :22:54. | :22:55. | |
other game Arsene Wenger's side led through Theo Walcott, | :22:56. | :22:58. | |
who'd moments before missed a penalty before Liverpool | :22:59. | :22:59. | |
and Philippe Coutinho took over. The Brazilian equalised | :23:00. | :23:02. | |
with a splendid free-kick before half-time, was involved | :23:03. | :23:03. | |
in Adam Lallana's goal and got a second himself before Sadio Mane's | :23:04. | :23:06. | |
debut goal made in 4-1. Incredibly, that didn't finish | :23:07. | :23:08. | |
Arsenal off and they fought back with goals from | :23:09. | :23:10. | |
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Callum But they couldn't find | :23:11. | :23:12. | |
an equaliser and Jurgan Klopp's We have to improve. Of course, | :23:13. | :23:24. | |
everybody knows it. Even in a game where we were not brilliant, we | :23:25. | :23:28. | |
scored his goals, so we can be always a threat if we want, if we | :23:29. | :23:33. | |
stay in the game, if we use our quality and skills, we can. Of | :23:34. | :23:39. | |
course, all the time you need to defend better, especially like a | :23:40. | :23:45. | |
team -- against a team like Arsenal. Everybody was morning around, nobody | :23:46. | :23:48. | |
felt good at this moment. And then one minute later, the whole | :23:49. | :23:54. | |
atmosphere changed. We had a good first half and we were lucky to be | :23:55. | :23:57. | |
at 1-1 at half-time. After the second half, I felt like we made a | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
massive mistake on the second goal and after that, you could see that | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
we were shocked. After that, we showed great spirit to come back and | :24:11. | :24:15. | |
fight back. And in the second half, you could see that some players came | :24:16. | :24:19. | |
back late, they were physically shot. And we pay for that. | :24:20. | :24:23. | |
And there is barely been a moment to pause for breath over the last | :24:24. | :24:28. | |
couple of hours. But I can assure you that is all of the sport for | :24:29. | :24:31. | |
now. Time for a cup of tea. Thank you, Steve. Not everyone has done | :24:32. | :24:40. | |
well at this Olympics. As far as the Indian gymnasts are concerned, | :24:41. | :24:44. | |
Deepak par is the first Indian gymnast in any Olympics. She | :24:45. | :24:48. | |
finished fourth on the vault, disappointing for her. She was | :24:49. | :24:51. | |
expecting a medal and tweeted in the last few hours, sorry to the 1.3 | :24:52. | :24:57. | |
billion people. I cannot make possible but I tried hard to do so. | :24:58. | :25:05. | |
If forgive me. And we will leave you with a Buddhist pageant that has | :25:06. | :25:10. | |
taken place on the streets of Kandy in Sri Lanka. It has been held for | :25:11. | :25:13. | |
centuries and involves elephants. | :25:14. | :25:19. |
