:02:16. > :02:25.outbreak hammer as the planes out west, fires are raging. Flying even

:02:26. > :02:30.at night. You can see it is surrounded by all of this incredibly

:02:31. > :02:36.dry brush. It has not burned in well over a century. The cost of the

:02:37. > :02:40.blaze is ballooning to over $4 million, adding to an already

:02:41. > :02:47.expensive season, twice as many echoes pruned as this time last

:03:09. > :03:11.Iraqi troops. President Obama talking with his national security

:03:12. > :03:16.team tonight. They want to protect the US embassy. The embassy has 5000

:03:17. > :03:21.US citizens living and working there. At this hour, another

:03:22. > :03:29.American warship is heading towards Iraq. Iraq is soldiers and civilian

:03:31. > :03:49.militants. These marines are now in place to

:03:50. > :03:56.protect America's embassy. It is $700 million fortress. AT football

:03:57. > :04:00.fields in size, but tonight we have learnt a significant number of the

:04:01. > :04:05.5000 who live and work here have been evacuated. This as the

:04:06. > :04:14.ferocious terror group ISIS took down another city. They are Sunni

:04:15. > :04:18.Muslims, wanting to crush the sheer element of the government. They are

:04:19. > :04:25.getting help from Sunnis across the country. That's why it America today

:04:26. > :04:31.added to its list of options. The warship on the move today as five

:04:32. > :04:37.aircraft, which can help in an evacuation. But if the US choose to

:04:38. > :04:41.strike the militants, there is now in place a US carrier, able to

:04:42. > :04:47.launch 40 fighter jets to bomb the militants and two ships that can

:05:03. > :05:07.thousands of young men flood through the gates of an army recruiting

:05:08. > :05:13.centre. These men have shown up spontaneously and are anywhere from

:05:14. > :05:16.about 12, some who have already lost family members to be jihadi

:05:17. > :05:24.fighters. Young and old, none given any training. But today, in Baghdad,

:05:25. > :05:30.we also found this. A celebration amidst the fear. A wedding. A new

:05:31. > :05:36.family, that somehow, through it all, looks to the future. But the

:05:37. > :05:40.threat to the city tonight is real. There are Iraqi security forces

:05:41. > :05:45.throughout the city, checkpoints everywhere. Of course the USS it

:05:46. > :05:50.will work with Iran to try to stop the militants. `` the US says. But

:05:51. > :05:53.the people we have spoken to believe it is up to them to defend the city.

:05:54. > :05:58.Thank you. There is a lot of concern that this

:06:03. > :06:10.One of the biggest oil producers in the world has meant markets have

:06:11. > :06:16.been rattled already. Good evening. We have seen the

:06:37. > :06:40.could soon be paying even more, as much as 10 cents per gallon.

:06:41. > :06:45.All of this game because of the fears in Iraq. There have been ``

:06:46. > :06:50.big predictions we would see a drop in gas prices. Not any more.

:07:23. > :07:25.In a city known for its tornadoes, meteorologists suddenly got very

:07:26. > :07:33.good at measuring earthquakes. That was A the jute 4.2. That was well
