Hello, I'm Karin Giannone, this is Outside Source.

:00:09.:00:11.

Let's look through some of the main stories here in the BBC Newsroom.

:00:12.:00:17.

Just one week to go to the Euro 2016 championships in France.

:00:18.:00:20.

Ukraine says it's foiled a plan to launch multiple terror attacks

:00:21.:00:23.

There are questions tonight about how easy it is to buy machine guns

:00:24.:00:39.

in the Ukraine. And we have a big medical

:00:40.:00:41.

breakthrough to bring you. Scientists begin the process,

:00:42.:00:43.

of trying to grow human Muslims observing Ramadan in the UK

:00:44.:00:45.

are facing the longest days of fasting in 33 years,

:00:46.:00:49.

as the holy month coincides Scientists in the United States

:00:50.:00:51.

are trying to grow human They have injected human stem cells

:00:52.:01:16.

into pig embryos to produce The embryos are part of research

:01:17.:01:21.

aimed at overcoming the worldwide Could this solve the organ

:01:22.:01:27.

transplant shortage? That's the aim of

:01:28.:01:40.

research in California. These sows are pregnant with part

:01:41.:01:44.

pig, part human offspring. The pig embryos had their DNA edited

:01:45.:01:48.

using a technique known as crisper, then human cells were injected

:01:49.:01:54.

which scientists hope will allow a human, not

:01:55.:01:57.

pig pancreas, to grow. Just one example of this

:01:58.:02:01.

powerful technology. Inside each cell in our body

:02:02.:02:04.

is our genome, billions of pieces It's the blueprint or

:02:05.:02:17.

instruction manual for life. A single error or spelling mistake

:02:18.:02:25.

in that DNA can trigger disease. There are thousands of genetic

:02:26.:02:29.

disorders and many more conditions Crisper gene editing enables

:02:30.:02:33.

scientists to scan the entire genome and using molecular scissors to cut

:02:34.:02:41.

both strands of DNA and delete, In San Francisco, the world's first

:02:42.:02:45.

trials have already happened using an earlier form

:02:46.:02:59.

of gene editing. Matt is one of around 80 HIV

:03:00.:03:02.

patients whose immune cells have been DNA edited to try to make them

:03:03.:03:07.

resistant to the virus. Since the trial, he's stopped taking

:03:08.:03:15.

any antiretroviral drugs. My viral load is pretty good,

:03:16.:03:18.

pretty well controlled. That's kind of the point

:03:19.:03:24.

of the study to see how well you can naturally control HIV

:03:25.:03:28.

after you get the treatment. How long have you been

:03:29.:03:33.

off your meds? It's too early to talk about cures

:03:34.:03:36.

after such a small trial, but the Bayeux chemist

:03:37.:03:44.

who co-discovered crisper, a new rapid form of gene editing

:03:45.:03:48.

says medicine will be transformed. Just thinking about the opportunity

:03:49.:03:54.

to cure a genetic disease, not treat it, not you know,

:03:55.:03:58.

just give palliative treatment, but really provide a cure,

:03:59.:04:01.

in the future, is so exciting. People say that this is going to be

:04:02.:04:06.

the century of biology. I think there's a lot

:04:07.:04:14.

of truth to that. But when scientists can alter DNA

:04:15.:04:16.

at will, society will have to decide what limits should be placed on such

:04:17.:04:19.

a powerful technology. I spoke with Fergus

:04:20.:04:27.

about other potential uses Gene editing enables any DNA of any

:04:28.:04:43.

organism on the planet to be altered. So it has implications for

:04:44.:04:50.

animals, for crops, agriculture and, as you said, for human health. The

:04:51.:04:57.

first trials of an older version of Gene editing, they all use the same

:04:58.:05:01.

principle. They can do this double break in the strand of DNA, the

:05:02.:05:05.

stuff inside of the mucus of ourselves. That took place in San

:05:06.:05:10.

Francisco. 18 men with HIV were treated. I spoke to one chap who had

:05:11.:05:18.

been off his medication, his anti-retroviral drugs, for two

:05:19.:05:23.

years. We cannot read too much into a small trial but it is a proof of

:05:24.:05:27.

principle that Gene editing has great promise. Just four years ago,

:05:28.:05:32.

a team in California co-discoverer at a new rapid fast cheap form of

:05:33.:05:39.

Gene editing that has spread across pretty much every laboratory doing

:05:40.:05:43.

research in the world. The first treatment for an eye disease and

:05:44.:05:49.

other forms of disorders, leukaemia, they should happen within a few

:05:50.:05:54.

years. I do think in terms of basic medical research and in terms of

:05:55.:05:58.

wider applications for the future, this will be the game changer for

:05:59.:06:05.

science. Very briefly, we have heard some vocal ethical concerns? Yes,

:06:06.:06:11.

sure. With great power comes great responsibility. When scientists can

:06:12.:06:18.

alter your or my DNA, or that of pigs or plans, we have to decide

:06:19.:06:21.

what limits we are going to place on that technology. -- plans. Fergus

was. A rare attack on the intelligence

:06:27.:06:27.

services in Jordan has It happened on the northern

:06:28.:06:29.

outskirts of the capital Amman at a building in the Baqaa refugee

:06:30.:06:33.

camp, home to Palestinians who fled It's been widely condemned including

:06:34.:06:37.

by the Jordanian government. The Communications Minister told

:06:38.:06:44.

state TV "Security forces are chasing these culprits

:06:45.:06:45.

and investigating the circumstances Yolande Knell is

:06:46.:06:49.

following the story. This is something that is very rare

:06:50.:07:02.

in Jordan, although it has ongoing concerns about home-grown

:07:03.:07:06.

extremists, those Jordanians have joined jihadist groups in Iraq and

:07:07.:07:11.

Syria, neighbouring countries and sometimes there is a threat that

:07:12.:07:14.

this on rest will spill across its borders. People are really quite

:07:15.:07:19.

outraged by this attack that took place at about seven o'clock this

:07:20.:07:27.

morning in the refugee camp. It is Jordan's biggest Palestinian refugee

:07:28.:07:31.

camp to the north of the capital. It is the first day of Ramadan, a time

:07:32.:07:37.

when Muslims are observing a fast. Things would have been relatively

:07:38.:07:41.

quiet in the office. And perhaps they were caught off guard. We are

:07:42.:07:45.

not giving too much information from the government at the moment,

:07:46.:07:51.

articulately about what happened in terms of the cause of this attack.

:07:52.:07:55.

Some suggested was a lone gunman who broke in. But of course it is the

:07:56.:08:05.

main news here in Jordan Mutch of the Arab world. The minister saying

:08:06.:08:11.

that they are going to find out who the perpetrators were, but no group

:08:12.:08:14.

claiming responsibility at the moment.

:08:15.:08:17.

The English Premier League is the richest in the world -

:08:18.:08:20.

and it seems that the big money extends to legal claims too.

:08:21.:08:22.

Eva Carniero was the Chelsea doctor until an incident during a match

:08:23.:08:25.

against Swansea last season that angered then manager Jose Mourinho.

:08:26.:08:28.

Eventually Dr Carneiro left the club and she's now claiming constructive

:08:29.:08:30.

During an employment tribunal today, it emerged she rejected a one point

:08:31.:08:35.

Dr Carneiro arrived at the start of the hearing scheduled to last until

:08:36.:08:53.

June 20 four. She is alleging constructive dismissal against

:08:54.:08:56.

Chelsea. That all came about after Chelsea's opening game of the

:08:57.:08:58.

Premier League season against Swansea in August. She went onto the

:08:59.:09:05.

field of play to tend to Hazard. He was lying injured on the page. That

:09:06.:09:12.

infuriated Jose Mourinho, who believed the medical team needed to

:09:13.:09:15.

take more account of the state of play. The game at the time. He

:09:16.:09:19.

criticised the medical team afterwards. A few weeks later Eva

:09:20.:09:25.

Carneiro resigned. She has lanced this constructive dismissal claim.

:09:26.:09:29.

Chelsea say they have done nothing unlawful. Today in court documents

:09:30.:09:34.

we discovered they had attempted to resolve the matter by offering Eva

:09:35.:09:38.

Carneiro ?1.2 million. They say all over chewers have been rejected. In

:09:39.:09:47.

response, we have got a skeleton outline of Dr Carneiro's legal

:09:48.:09:52.

claim. It says, this is a claim of two employees, one good and one bad.

:09:53.:09:58.

The references to Jose Mourinho. The bad employee forces the good

:09:59.:10:01.

employee out of the job of her dreams and the employer, Chelsea,

:10:02.:10:06.

does nothing to stop it. Many people had expected there might be a

:10:07.:10:09.

resolution to this case. It does not appear to be the case. Both sides

:10:10.:10:14.

appear to be in for the long haul. We're going to hear from Jose

:10:15.:10:19.

Mourinho, the Manchester United manager now, possibly as early as

:10:20.:10:23.

next week when he is called to give evidence. Richard Conway.

:10:24.:10:28.

A Chinese retail giant agreeing to buy a stake in AC Milan.

:10:29.:10:38.

The Italian team famously share the San Siro stadium

:10:39.:10:40.

with their arch-rivals AC Milan who are also in talks with Chinese

:10:41.:10:43.

Will Perry is at the BBC Sports Centre.

:10:44.:10:49.

It looks that way. The Chinese retail firm will pay 280 million

:10:50.:11:05.

euros for this majority stake as part of an overall 750 million euros

:11:06.:11:09.

deal which would see the current owner stay on as president. The

:11:10.:11:15.

company is based in Nanjing. They owned 1600 stores across China with

:11:16.:11:22.

a turnover of just $55 billion. Why Inter Milan? That is the question.

:11:23.:11:27.

There seems to be a football culture revolution in China, with the

:11:28.:11:30.

president hinting at a bid for the World Cup somewhere down the line.

:11:31.:11:34.

The Chinese Super League is a growing commodity. Inter Milan have

:11:35.:11:38.

won the Italian championship 18 times and three times the Champions

:11:39.:11:42.

League. They would give huge access to the European market and raise the

:11:43.:11:47.

profile of Chinese football. Look at other countries, Slough via Prague

:11:48.:11:53.

are Chinese owned. Aston Villa sold a 13% stake to Chinese investors. It

:11:54.:12:05.

clearly makes financial sense for inter-,

:12:06.:12:12.

who under their manager, Roberto Mancini, are looking to win their

:12:13.:12:15.

first major trophy in five years and once again become a major European

:12:16.:12:16.

force. The world of boxing continues to pay

:12:17.:12:18.

tribute to Muhammed Ali. In a sign of his universal appeal,

:12:19.:12:22.

the President of Turkey and King of Jordan have been announced

:12:23.:12:25.

as speakers at his funeral. That takes place in Louisville,

:12:26.:12:29.

Kentucky on Friday and we'll have Now here's a sport that we haven't

:12:30.:12:32.

featured on Outside Source before - you may not have heard

:12:33.:12:41.

of fingerhakein. It's a kind of finger wrestling

:12:42.:12:44.

with a long tradition Let's take a look at what happens

:12:45.:12:46.

in the Bavarian city of Peissenberg. We will get there eventually. Let me

:12:47.:12:59.

show you that area. No, we're not going there. Anyway, it is happening

:13:00.:13:03.

in Peissenberg. This is what happens.

:13:04.:13:38.

That is Outside Source sport. The mother of a three-year-old boy who

:13:39.:13:45.

fell into a gorilla enclosure in the United States will not face

:13:46.:13:50.

prosecution. Officials at the Cincinnati zoo shot dead the Animal

:13:51.:13:54.

to protect the child. The boy's family say they are pleased with the

:13:55.:13:59.

decision. The county prosecutor said the mother's actions were not even

:14:00.:14:02.

close to meriting charges of reckless endangerment. She had three

:14:03.:14:07.

other children with her. She turned her back. I have gotten dozens of

:14:08.:14:14.

not hundreds of e-mails about this case. And if anyone doesn't believe

:14:15.:14:20.

a three-year-old can scamper off very quickly, they've never had

:14:21.:14:29.

kids. Because they can and they do. Stay with us on Outside Source. It

:14:30.:14:33.

is the start of Ramadan. We will tell you why Muslims have the

:14:34.:14:35.

longest fast in 33 years. It is believed several million

:14:36.:14:51.

people I've yet to register to vote in the EU referendum. Many are young

:14:52.:14:56.

and from energy groups. Gavin Hewitt reports. On the eve of

:14:57.:14:59.

the deadline to register to vote, the referendum ground war

:15:00.:15:05.

intensifies. Millions still have not registered. On the streets,

:15:06.:15:11.

confusion and questions. What can we do about it? This is Lincoln. With

:15:12.:15:19.

some any voters not registered, party activists no turnout is key.

:15:20.:15:28.

He is in. She is out. She is in. He is out. This is about winning

:15:29.:15:38.

arguments. Years ago we managed fine when we were out. The world as

:15:39.:15:47.

globalised now. It is fine. I think I am going to vote state, which is

:15:48.:15:50.

probably what you don't want to hear. There is the unsure. All the

:15:51.:16:00.

money that we put into the EU, it'll come out of the EU. We have got

:16:01.:16:06.

money coming back to us. And there is the newly converted. I was

:16:07.:16:10.

passing by. I spoke to the people representing Remain and I felt

:16:11.:16:15.

strongly with what they said. In the past three weeks, 1.3 million people

:16:16.:16:19.

have registered to vote, half of them under 35. But it seems many

:16:20.:16:25.

younger people have not signed up. In the general election, Lincoln is

:16:26.:16:29.

a marginal, a key battle ground. But in a referendum that does not matter

:16:30.:16:32.

because every vote carries equal weight. For the two camps, they have

:16:33.:16:39.

been adopting different strategies on the ground war -- in the ground

:16:40.:16:44.

war. This doctor has been researching the campaign. She says

:16:45.:16:48.

the Remain camp is holding more events focused on urban areas where

:16:49.:16:54.

they have more support. If you want to go to a pro-EU area, you are

:16:55.:16:59.

trying to mobilise people. You're not trying to convert you are trying

:17:00.:17:02.

to get people to be polling stations. Get out The Vote on your

:17:03.:17:08.

side. That would suggest Remain is adopting a strong mobilisation

:17:09.:17:11.

strategy. She says the league campaign appears more engaged in

:17:12.:17:13.

trying to convert people to its cause.

:17:14.:17:23.

You were with Outside Source. Our lead story. With five days until the

:17:24.:17:33.

start of france-macro in Paris, Ukraine says it has arrested a man

:17:34.:17:36.

suspected of planning a string of terrorist attacks. Coming up

:17:37.:17:45.

shortly, if you are outside the UK, it is world News America next.

:17:46.:17:50.

They've been speaking to world renowned cellist Yo-yo Mah

:17:51.:17:52.

as a new documentary about his musical

:17:53.:17:54.

Here in the UK, the News at Ten will be on at half ten.

:17:55.:17:58.

They've got the latest on the EU referendum campaign.

:17:59.:18:01.

David Cameron has appeared with the leaders of the Labour,

:18:02.:18:03.

Lib Dem and Greens Party, warning an EU exit would put "a bomb

:18:04.:18:06.

Wildlife crimes are 26 percent higher than initial

:18:07.:18:14.

estimates two years ago, according to the UN's Environment

:18:15.:18:16.

In a new report, they say international criminal gangs

:18:17.:18:21.

are making profits estimated at more than $250 from ivory and bushmeat.

:18:22.:18:25.

Angola's government has pledged to close down the biggest market

:18:26.:18:27.

Angola, not for the faint-hearted. A post-war generation may be

:18:28.:18:49.

struggling to find jobs, but here business is booming in the bush meat

:18:50.:18:54.

trade. Mainly illegal. We did not have too look far to find it.

:18:55.:18:58.

Although this may offend some sensibilities, this is the reality

:18:59.:19:03.

of bush meat. What they are selling here is a gazelle or an antelope.

:19:04.:19:08.

Every bit of the Animal is used. It is not simply about traditions. One

:19:09.:19:12.

woman said there was an economic reason. It is cheaper than the price

:19:13.:19:22.

of fish. Monkey, snake, Wildcat, gazelle, all for sale to the strains

:19:23.:19:27.

of a popular tune. It may seem macabre. But this woman is among

:19:28.:19:33.

millions resisting moves to ban it. TRANSLATION: They cannot stop it and

:19:34.:19:36.

you cannot compare the taste of this meet with the taste of chicken. This

:19:37.:19:42.

is much better. And this is just the tip of the

:19:43.:19:47.

iceberg. Big crime syndicates are using markets like this to shift

:19:48.:19:51.

bush meat and ivory on an industrial scale. Wildlife no bigger than the

:19:52.:19:58.

trade in firearms. Cheap motorbikes coming into the landscape and

:19:59.:20:03.

enabling them to do this, to convert wildlife into money. The people are

:20:04.:20:08.

eating just the heads and the guts. These animals are eating the big

:20:09.:20:13.

cats. It is cascading down into the ecosystem. Soldiers are now being

:20:14.:20:25.

rebranded as wildlife rangers. Effort having scaled up to detect

:20:26.:20:32.

the criminal gangs. They are porches. -- poachers. They are

:20:33.:20:38.

killing animals. We don't want to kill any single -- every single

:20:39.:20:42.

animal. Because we need this as well. But it is a race against time.

:20:43.:20:49.

The vast territory that makes up the river system out of macro bounds

:20:50.:20:54.

during decades of war is now exposed, opening up a new front in

:20:55.:20:58.

the battle between conservationists and wildlife criminals. This is one

:20:59.:21:06.

of the last pieces of uncharted territory on this planet. It is

:21:07.:21:13.

quite extraordinary. The potential for finding more is enormous. That

:21:14.:21:18.

is what is driving conservation and tourism. Christine and wild. --

:21:19.:21:29.

Christine. There is still a chance to protest -- protect the wildlife.

:21:30.:21:35.

A proposal for a conservation zone is on the table and an effort to

:21:36.:21:38.

cheat the criminals and avoided the looming threat that these majestic

:21:39.:21:41.

creatures could very soon face extinction. And there is more on

:21:42.:21:47.

that report on the BBC website. Ramadan has got underway

:21:48.:21:50.

here in the UK - Muslims around the country have been

:21:51.:21:52.

breaking their fast But because the holy month coincides

:21:53.:21:54.

with the summer solstice, it means really long daylight hours -

:21:55.:21:58.

the longest days of fasting Mysah Valley from the BBC's

:21:59.:22:00.

Asian Network told me This year the Farsala longest they

:22:01.:22:16.

have been in 35 years. You are fasting for around 19 hours. Muslims

:22:17.:22:23.

follow the lunar calendar. Each year Ramadan moves forward and it

:22:24.:22:28.

coincides with the summer solstice. You can have water, people ask. But

:22:29.:22:37.

you cannot have any water, any food, any drink. It is about

:22:38.:22:43.

self-discipline, self reflection, bettering your relationship with God

:22:44.:22:47.

and others around you. Tell me what a typical day is like? Shore. It is

:22:48.:22:53.

a very early alarm call. You wake up at about two o'clock and have a

:22:54.:22:59.

predawn meal. You have things like porridge or bananas. Basically

:23:00.:23:02.

slow-release foods that will keep you going during the day. During the

:23:03.:23:06.

day it is as normal as possible because that is the point of

:23:07.:23:09.

Ramadan. You carry on as normal. You may pray more, you may read the

:23:10.:23:14.

Koran more. At night there are long prayers at the mosque. That is

:23:15.:23:21.

trying to complete the Koran, 30 chapters in 30 days. You are exempt

:23:22.:23:25.

because of your medical condition. There are certain groups who do not

:23:26.:23:29.

have to fast. What do you miss most about this routine? I would say, and

:23:30.:23:36.

people may think this is odd... People think I am lucky to get out

:23:37.:23:42.

of it. I miss having my stomach rumble and be instantly reminded it

:23:43.:23:46.

is Ramadan and that is why I am hungry, not just because I have not

:23:47.:23:49.

had a break. The whole point is putting yourself in a position of

:23:50.:23:53.

poorer people who do not have the luxury of being able to eat. You

:23:54.:23:58.

missed that sense of achievement, of accomplishing something? Exactly. I

:23:59.:24:01.

will make offer it in other ways. I will give more money to charity,

:24:02.:24:05.

help to feed the homeless. There are other ways you can make up for it.

:24:06.:24:10.

It is about self reflection and self-discipline.

:24:11.:24:16.

Let's Hend on the annual custard pie Championships in cocci in Kent. --

:24:17.:24:24.

end. Teams came from all over the world, mostly in fancy dress. Six

:24:25.:24:33.

points for a direct hit in the face. Three points for a near miss above

:24:34.:24:41.

the shoulders. One point four heading any other part of the body.
