:00:10. > :00:13.after a report finds evidence of state sponsored doping.

:00:14. > :00:16.The International Paralympic Committee blamed a 'medals

:00:17. > :00:18.over morals' mentality - going much further

:00:19. > :00:26.The anti-doping system in Russia is broken,

:00:27. > :00:32.Russia says it will appeal the decision.

:00:35. > :00:38.London silver medalist Lizzie Armitstead misses

:00:39. > :00:40.out on medals in Rio - amid concerns over

:00:41. > :00:47.Homeowners living in areas where there's fracking for shale gas

:00:48. > :00:55.More than a million people turn out in Istanbul to protest at last

:00:56. > :01:02.And England win the third Test against Pakistan at Edgbaston

:01:03. > :01:31.The entire Russian team has been banned from the Paralympic Games

:01:32. > :01:34.which begin in Brazil next month - because of what the International

:01:35. > :01:35.Paralympic Committee called a "state-sponsored"

:01:36. > :01:45.The committee's chairman, Sir Philip Craven, said

:01:46. > :01:48.he was "disgusted" by a broken system that - in his words -

:01:49. > :01:52.Our sports editor, Dan Roan is live in Rio de Janeiro.

:01:53. > :01:57.This is quite simply one of the biggest and most important decisions

:01:58. > :02:03.that the Paralympic movement has ever had to take. Paralympic sport

:02:04. > :02:09.is very much growing in stature and strength, you only had to look at

:02:10. > :02:12.the crowds in London four years ago to understand that, in Russia has

:02:13. > :02:20.become a powerhouse in disability sport and it won 18 medals at the

:02:21. > :02:25.Winter Paralympics, many more than any other nation, but today it was

:02:26. > :02:29.told it was not welcome at the Rio Paralympic switch follow-on two

:02:30. > :02:35.weeks after the current Rio Olympics, and the IPC made a very

:02:36. > :02:36.stark contrast with the decision of the IOC in allowing Russia to

:02:37. > :02:43.compete here. Russia did not just host the 2014

:02:44. > :02:49.Winter games, it dominated them. But we know now Sochi

:02:50. > :02:51.was sabotaged by a programme of state-sponsored doping and today

:02:52. > :02:57.the country was punished. The Russian Paralympic

:02:58. > :03:00.Committee will not be able to enter its athletes into the Rio

:03:01. > :03:07.2016 Paralympic games. I believe the Russian government has

:03:08. > :03:09.failed its para-athletes. Their medals over morals

:03:10. > :03:12.mentality disgusts me. Last month a damning report revealed

:03:13. > :03:16.systemic cheating in Russia across many sports, but despite that

:03:17. > :03:19.the International Olympic Committee controversially resisted demands

:03:20. > :03:25.to ban the entire team from Rio. And the country has

:03:26. > :03:33.already won its first gold But the International

:03:34. > :03:36.Olympic Committee has The anti-doping system in Russia

:03:37. > :03:39.is broken, corrupted, Everything we've observed goes

:03:40. > :03:57.against the very spirit of sport and everything

:03:58. > :03:58.the Paralympics stands for. The Russian sports minister says

:03:59. > :04:00.the country's exclusion was beyond common-sense

:04:01. > :04:10.and vowed to appeal. One Paralympic athlete agrees

:04:11. > :04:13.with the decision. The blanket ban on the Russian

:04:14. > :04:16.athletes at the Paralympic games is a huge decision and I feel

:04:17. > :04:18.for those athletes that are clean and are now not

:04:19. > :04:21.going to have the opportunity But it reassures me

:04:22. > :04:24.that the Paralympic movement has the integrity of the sport

:04:25. > :04:27.and the movement as a whole The Russian national anthem has

:04:28. > :04:30.already been heard But it is a sound which will

:04:31. > :04:35.be missing when Rio's second great sporting

:04:36. > :04:37.spectacle of the summer gets On Day two of the action

:04:38. > :04:41.at the Olympics British hopes will focus on swimming shortly,

:04:42. > :04:44.as Adam Peaty goes for gold in the 100 metres

:04:45. > :04:51.breaststroke later tonight. In the last few minutes Richard

:04:52. > :04:52.Kruse narrowly missed out on a medal in the fencing.

:04:53. > :04:56.Our sports correspondent Andy Swiss reports.

:04:57. > :05:02.Of all the places to look for a British medal, fencing has not

:05:03. > :05:08.provided one in more than half a century, and to Richard Kruse.

:05:09. > :05:12.Battling for a place in the Olympic final, it is a sport akin to

:05:13. > :05:21.physical chess, the aim to hit without being hit, and Richard Kruse

:05:22. > :05:30.took an early lead. But his opponent is the world number one and back he

:05:31. > :05:35.came to win 15-9. Richard Kruse's hopes of gold had been thwarted, but

:05:36. > :05:41.he still had a chance of bronze, a play-off against a Russian, and

:05:42. > :05:49.agonisingly once again it was not to be. So near yet so far, fourth place

:05:50. > :05:55.to Richard Kruse, Britain's wait for a medal goes on. Meanwhile it was a

:05:56. > :06:01.frustrating day for the organisers and the rowers, high winds on the

:06:02. > :06:04.water, and after one boat capsized yesterday they were taking no

:06:05. > :06:10.chances and today's action was cancelled. But the weather was not

:06:11. > :06:17.the only problem, many empty seats around the venues including at the

:06:18. > :06:21.tennis. Andy Murray got his Olympic title defence off to a winning

:06:22. > :06:29.start. With victory over Viktor Troicki. It was another good day for

:06:30. > :06:34.the women's rugby sevens team, two tries from the captain helping them

:06:35. > :06:39.into the quarterfinals with a comprehensive victory over Canada.

:06:40. > :06:47.Not everything went according to plan, in the gymnastics a painful

:06:48. > :06:51.moment for Eddie Downey. -- Airlie. Thankfully she was able to walk away

:06:52. > :06:56.and carry on competing. There was better news in the swimming, jazz

:06:57. > :07:02.Carling won her heat and qualified second fastest for tonight's final

:07:03. > :07:07.of the 400 metres freestyle, and after missing the London Olympics, a

:07:08. > :07:12.chance at last for an Olympic medal. It could be quite a night in the

:07:13. > :07:14.swimming pool, because later, Adam Peaty goes for gold medal in the

:07:15. > :07:20.final of the 100 metres breaststroke. He set a world record

:07:21. > :07:25.in the heats and he is the red-hot favourite so at around three o'clock

:07:26. > :07:30.in the morning Britain's wait for a gold medal in these Games might be

:07:31. > :07:33.over. Meanwhile British cyclist

:07:34. > :07:35.Lizzie Armitstead has come fifth in the road race -

:07:36. > :07:37.after winning a silver She missed three drugs tests

:07:38. > :07:41.in the past year - and was only allowed to compete

:07:42. > :07:43.after appealing to the Court Meanwhile there's been

:07:44. > :07:46.criticism of the course - after a crash which left

:07:47. > :07:48.a Dutch cyclist injured. This report from our sports

:07:49. > :07:51.correspondent Natalie Pirks contains images of the crash which some

:07:52. > :08:00.viewers may find disturbing. A stony face replaced what should

:08:01. > :08:04.have been a joyous moment for Lizzie Armitstead. As world champion in a

:08:05. > :08:09.sport struggling the credibility she wanted to show fans the beauty in

:08:10. > :08:12.cycling, but as she went to the start line even some of her fellow

:08:13. > :08:17.competitors did not believe she should be there. It is not fair that

:08:18. > :08:23.she can race and other riders can't. Nothing about her, and I will be

:08:24. > :08:34.happy to see her today, but the roll has to be the same for everyone.

:08:35. > :08:39.Lizzie Armitstead was a marked women -- woman, and she had a difficult

:08:40. > :08:46.start, with a puncture after 20 minutes. COMMENTATOR: This is a

:08:47. > :08:50.sterling effort from Emma Pooley. With the biggest climb to come, the

:08:51. > :09:00.Olympic champion Marriane Vos made her move. But having done all the

:09:01. > :09:05.hard work, she faltered, leaving a team-mate with open room in front of

:09:06. > :09:08.her, but these were gruelling conditions, and with rain slitting

:09:09. > :09:12.up the surface it was treacherous for the women, as well. What

:09:13. > :09:20.follows, stark reminder of how dangerous the sport can be.

:09:21. > :09:32.COMMENTATOR: Oh! The Dutch Federation said she was conscious

:09:33. > :09:39.and left in a ambulance. Lizzie Armitstead was trying to reel the

:09:40. > :09:45.leaders in. A frenetic finish to this race, but no medal for Great

:09:46. > :09:50.Britain. I can't feel sorry for myself, this is sport and that is

:09:51. > :09:54.what it's about. You open yourself up to judgment, I never gave up and

:09:55. > :09:58.I can be proud of myself. Lizzie Armitstead said this cause would be

:09:59. > :10:03.brutal and a battle for survival, the Costa Zionist now faced

:10:04. > :10:09.criticism over just how true that criticism was -- the course

:10:10. > :10:14.designers. No one can just crash and get up, it is really bad. Joy for

:10:15. > :10:17.the Netherlands, but tempered by a dreadful moment, with major crashes

:10:18. > :10:27.in the men's and women's races questions will be asked over whether

:10:28. > :10:30.was enough -- enough was done to protect the athletes.

:10:31. > :10:33.Well, at the end of the first weekend of competition let's talk

:10:34. > :10:35.to our sports editor Dan Roan who's in Rio.

:10:36. > :10:38.Dan, what's your assessment of how the Games have gone so far?

:10:39. > :10:44.No shortage of drama and excitement so far. On the other hand, a couple

:10:45. > :10:47.of days into competition, these Games cannot shake off the doping

:10:48. > :10:54.related controversies, and the decision of the IPC ticket rush out

:10:55. > :10:59.of the Paralympics puts it at odds with the odds of the IOC which

:11:00. > :11:06.received plenty of criticism by resisting demands to do the same

:11:07. > :11:13.last week -- the decision of the IPC to kick Russia out. There have been

:11:14. > :11:17.fresh allegations of doping in Kenya today in the Sunday Times, and

:11:18. > :11:24.organisers have got to tackle other issues, safety concerns, the wind

:11:25. > :11:28.caused havoc, as well, delays at the rowing, kayaking and tennis,

:11:29. > :11:33.organisers have improved the long queues we saw yesterday, but they

:11:34. > :11:40.have plenty to still get a grip on. That is always the way in the early

:11:41. > :11:43.days of Games. A slow start for Team GB, no medals, but that could change

:11:44. > :11:50.in the swimming pool behind me when Adam Peaty goes for gold and if he

:11:51. > :11:59.can manage that maybe that will trigger a gold rush as Team GB tries

:12:00. > :12:03.to win more medals than at any other way Games in their history. We hope

:12:04. > :12:11.that moment comes in the early hours.

:12:12. > :12:13.Here, the government's being accused of trying to bribe people to accept

:12:14. > :12:16.Ministers are proposing that individual households

:12:17. > :12:18.are given cash payments - potentially running

:12:19. > :12:20.into thousands of pounds - to ensure they personally benefit

:12:21. > :12:24.from any decision to go ahead with the way of extracting shale gas.

:12:25. > :12:26.Labour have accused the government of trying to set neighbour

:12:27. > :12:28.Here's our Political Correspondent Alex Forsyth.

:12:29. > :12:31.The concept of fracking has been plagued by controversy.

:12:32. > :12:36.There were angry scenes in North Yorkshire when the council

:12:37. > :12:45.These hills are the battleground between those who say shale gas deep

:12:46. > :12:49.below could help meet the UK's energy needs and those who fear it

:12:50. > :12:56.Now residents in affected towns like Kirby Misperton have been

:12:57. > :13:00.told they could share in the proceeds from fracking.

:13:01. > :13:04.The Prime Minister is consulting on plans to give up to 10% of tax

:13:05. > :13:08.revenues directly to households instead of councils or local trusts.

:13:09. > :13:13.I think it's divisive, because some people would love a few

:13:14. > :13:17.thousand pounds in their bank account, and then other

:13:18. > :13:18.people, because they're against the fracking,

:13:19. > :13:24.It looks very attractive, but I think it's just

:13:25. > :13:27.I use central heating, I drive a car.

:13:28. > :13:37.I think you do have to see it as a local planning issue.

:13:38. > :13:41.Fracking involves injecting water, sand and chemicals at high pressure

:13:42. > :13:46.into shale rocks deep underground, releasing gas that can be

:13:47. > :13:50.Supporters say it's a safe energy resource which will

:13:51. > :13:53.boost local economies, and households should benefit.

:13:54. > :13:56.I think it's a really good intervention that Theresa May has

:13:57. > :14:02.done so that the local community can benefit directly, rather than just

:14:03. > :14:04.using a community group, because that will involve committees

:14:05. > :14:07.and trying to agree on what to spend the money on.

:14:08. > :14:09.But those opposed say the Government should focus on renewable

:14:10. > :14:13.energy, not trying to win people round to fracking.

:14:14. > :14:16.What Theresa May is trying to do is nothing more than a cheap bribe,

:14:17. > :14:19.trying to bribe communities that have said time and again

:14:20. > :14:24.The new Prime Minister has already paused one major energy project,

:14:25. > :14:32.She's close the Department for energy and climate change,

:14:33. > :14:34.taking it into one for business, energy and industry,

:14:35. > :14:38.marking a different approach from her predecessors.

:14:39. > :14:40.Theresa May said today's announcement is putting

:14:41. > :14:43.into practice what she promised when she stood here and took office,

:14:44. > :14:45.making economic decisions which benefit people personally,

:14:46. > :14:53.There are questions about how it would work and the amounts involved.

:14:54. > :14:55.But the Prime Minister has already said something similar could be

:14:56. > :15:03.Some activists say this will just strengthen their resolve to fight.

:15:04. > :15:06.Others hope this could encourage people to lay down their placards

:15:07. > :15:16.Labour and the Liberal Democrats say they will oppose any government

:15:17. > :15:18.plans to lift the ban on new grammar schools in England.

:15:19. > :15:21.Reports say Theresa May is keen to see a reintroduction

:15:22. > :15:24.of the schools, which were banned by Labour in 1998.

:15:25. > :15:26.The move will please some back-bench Conservative MPs,

:15:27. > :15:28.although the Tory chair of Parliament's education committee,

:15:29. > :15:45.Neil Carmichael, said it would not improve social mobility.

:15:46. > :15:48.Belgian prosecutors have identified the man who attacked a female police

:15:49. > :15:50.officer with a machete as a 33-year old Algerian, who's lived

:15:51. > :15:54.So-called Islamic State has claimed links to the attack

:15:55. > :15:56.but Belgian security services say the man was known to them

:15:57. > :15:58.previously for criminal rather than terrorist activities.

:15:59. > :16:00.More than a million people have been taking been part

:16:01. > :16:03.in a rally in Istanbul - to protest against last

:16:04. > :16:05.Turkish president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan,

:16:06. > :16:08.addressed the huge crowds - thanking the public for their role

:16:09. > :16:11.But despite the show of loyalty many are concerned about the severity

:16:12. > :16:22.of the crackdown on those accused of taking part.

:16:23. > :16:24.And parents of some of the young conscripts killed

:16:25. > :16:27.while taking part in the coup - say their sons took

:16:28. > :16:28.part without being told what was happening.

:16:29. > :16:30.Our correspondent Nafiseh Kohnavard reports from Istanbul.

:16:31. > :16:38.From the start, it was clear today's rally was going to be different.

:16:39. > :16:41.200 ferries had been put on to take people to the event they called

:16:42. > :17:05.Inside there was a clear display of national unity.

:17:06. > :17:07.Crowds, never seen before, all waving one flag,

:17:08. > :17:17.If President Erdogan had been shaken by last month's failed coup,

:17:18. > :17:26.He called for national unity and said the people behind

:17:27. > :17:44.But that is not how one man is remembered by his family.

:17:45. > :17:47.He was a conscript and worked in the Army.

:17:48. > :17:52.He was killed taking part in the coup.

:17:53. > :17:59.But his family say he had no idea what he was involved in.

:18:00. > :18:03.TRANSLATION: My son did not know anything about the coup.

:18:04. > :18:06.They woke him up and told him there was an operation

:18:07. > :18:17.His commanders led my son to death on purpose.

:18:18. > :18:20.This was the moment the soldiers on the bridge surrendered,

:18:21. > :18:21.and moments later this video was taken.

:18:22. > :18:28.In the background a voice says, "Stop beating him,

:18:29. > :18:36.TRANSLATION: My child was battered and murdered.

:18:37. > :18:38.He was covered in blood, he was bleeding like

:18:39. > :18:45.We have died a thousand deaths, I've been crying ever since.

:18:46. > :18:49.This pain is killing me, and I'm burning on the inside and I hope

:18:50. > :19:01.In some ways the coup has brought some parts of Turkey together.

:19:02. > :19:16.But it has also destroyed many lives.

:19:17. > :19:18.The Serious Fraud Office says it's opened a criminal investigation

:19:19. > :19:20.into allegations of fraud, bribery and corruption in the civil

:19:21. > :19:25.The allegations relate to irregularities

:19:26. > :19:32.The company says it's co-operating with the SFO.

:19:33. > :19:35.The Community Shield - the traditional curtain raiser

:19:36. > :19:37.to the Premier League season - took place this afternoon.

:19:38. > :19:40.Highlights follow this programme, so if you don't want to know

:19:41. > :19:45.the result, you might want to look away now.

:19:46. > :19:47.Jose Mourinho's Manchester United beat Premier League champions

:19:48. > :19:51.Summer signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic headed in the winner

:19:52. > :19:59.Before the game, United announced that the France international

:20:03. > :20:10.Cricket and England have won the third Test again

:20:11. > :20:18.They bowled out the visitors on the final day to win by 141 runs.

:20:19. > :20:20.It means England lead the four match series 2-1.

:20:21. > :20:22.Patrick Gearey was watching the action.

:20:23. > :20:25.A day to go in the Test match and many asked why these two

:20:26. > :20:28.England should be bowling at Pakistan, they said.

:20:29. > :20:31.If batting was a waste of time, it was entertaining and brief.

:20:32. > :20:33.20 minutes later Alastair Cook called them in, they had

:20:34. > :20:37.At least Mohammad Hafeez was feeling charitable.

:20:38. > :20:40.A gift to Stuart Broad, and to England.

:20:41. > :20:43.His fellow Pakistanis stood firmer for a while.

:20:44. > :20:45.Sami Aslam and Azhar Ali guided them to lunch,

:20:46. > :20:48.into the afternoon, and towards a draw.

:20:49. > :20:52.And then Moeen produced the sudden turn.

:20:53. > :20:54.The spinner shocked batsman Azhar and catcher Cook.

:20:55. > :21:01.Everything now had to happen in a hurry.

:21:02. > :21:06.Steven Finn must have wondered where his next wicket

:21:07. > :21:10.Finn's first in more than 400 Test deliveries.

:21:11. > :21:12.Relief, release, Pakistan in retreat.

:21:13. > :21:23.Pakistan had been more than 100 ahead at one stage, and yet

:21:24. > :21:28.The last pair at least took the Test into the evening shadows.

:21:29. > :21:37.A Test England could have lost and should have drawn.
