Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source.

More than 15,000 people have been suspended by the education ministry

in Turkey, and another 20,000 teachers have

It's the latest purge of officials after the coup attempt on Friday.

We'll hear from our correspondent in Istanbul.

In the UK Angela Eagle has dropped out of the race for

It means just two candidates will contest it -

The 17-year-old who carried out an axe attack on a train

in Germany apparently made a video before the attack,

The International Olympic Committee is taking legal advice

on whether it can ban Russia's entire team from Rio 2016.

And Nintendo's share price has now doubled in value since the release

Let's look at the scale Turkish government's response

Just today we heard that 15,000 people have been suspended

The licenses of 21,000 teachers in private institutions

1500 university deans have been told to resign.

That comes after over 8,000 police officers have been removed

and 6,000 members of the military have been removed.

Also today several TV and radio stations have

You hear all this, and think, can the state just do this?

Here's Selin Girit in Istanbul on the legality of these dismissals.

they can dismiss people from their posts and revoke licences. The

turkey 's watchdog for TV and radio has the right to revoke licences of

certain radios and TV channels. Having the right does not

necessarily mean it is right to do that. That is what many people

across Turkey, especially critics of the government asked themselves.

Over 30,000 people is that people are either dismissed or jailed, or

be tamed. However the coup attempt actually had more support within the

bureaucracy, with the police force, within the army, and initially

believed. If these people are all supporting the movement as the

government suggests, how in the first place will be able to

infiltrate in such numbers into such a significant positions within the

state bureaucracy and police force, and the army. And the question is

whether President Erdogan is using this oppression of the coup attempt

as an opportunity to enhance power. I wonder how public opinion is on

people being driven out of the education system. On Friday night we

saw Mr Erdogan picking up support from people taking to the streets

but his public opinion behind this move? When we are talking about

Turkey we need to emphasise that this is a very divided country,

divided society. It has already been polarised for several years now.

After the coup attempt, it is that polarisation within that society as

well. Having said that, there was not support for the coup attempt at

cross Turkey will stop there were of course people but in a minority that

will be supporting such a move. Turkey has suffered from several of

these in the past. Many people are killed and five such incidents with

people detained and arrested. Turkey has witnessed all of those. It was

not necessary any support for a coup attempt.

Here in London, there's been another twist in the opposition

Last week Angela Eagle announced she would challenge Labour

Today she she said she was dropping out -

and instead will be supporting Owen Smith who also

Remember Jeremy Corbyn was elected last summer by the party's

membership - but in the wake of the Brexit vote, Labour Mps

overwhelmingly supported a vote of no confidence.

Well here's Angela Eagle Owen Smith earlier.

Owen Smith has a lead and I think it is in the best interests

of the Labour Party that we now come together so we can have one

candidate, so I am announcing tonight that I am withdrawing

I would like to congratulate Owen oncoming top in this race and then

going on I think to take on Jeremy Corbyn.

I would just like to say to Angela, who is a great friend of mine

and a wonderful Labour leader who has been a pioneer

in our party for many years, that I will want to work

side-by-side with Angela through this contest,

I want Angela to be at my right hand throughout this.

I need Angela to work alongside me throughout this contest

She is a great Labour woman and I absolutely cannot do

without her in what will be very few months.

It is good to be a difficult few months, that is putting it mildly.

The Labour membership in the polling still suggests Jeremy Corbyn. It

will be difficult it will be a hard-fought battle for the soul of

the Labour Party in the United Kingdom. We can expect the challenge

of Owen Smith against Jeremy Corbyn, the incumbent leader, to last

through the summer we will have an announcement

of the winner after the party conference. Owen Smith is being

called the unity candidate by the Labour MPs. The support against the

current labour Jeremy Corbyn. He has a mountain to climb against Jeremy

Corbyn. He was elected by a landslide in the Labour Party

membership last year. At the moment of the indication so far that we

have, in the sense of the little bit of polling that has been done, it

does suggest that Jeremy Corbyn is still way ahead. What we have known

from Owen Smith, his challenger, is a campaign to try to recruit people

as registered supporters to try to join the Labour Party. If they can

join in the next 24 hours so they can vote in that election, he wants

more people to join up to vote for him. I keep you this would unity but

isn't the reality of the situation, which ever way this election goes,

they will be a significant chunk of the Labour Party that find it

completely unpalatable? There will. That is what is at the heart of the

crisis that has engulfed the Labour Party since those seismic events of

last month when the UK voted to leave the EU. This became a moment

that had reverberations in the governing Conservative Party but

also the Labour Party. It had its own leadership crisis unfolding.

Jeremy Corbyn as a left-wing leader of the party still has the support

of many of the mass membership. Grassroots support of people who say

they felt locked out of the establishment system, the political

bubble of Westminster and believe that the system has ignored them.

Those people still support Jeremy Corbyn and feel incredibly

passionate about his leadership of the party. Whereas the MPs, the

people in Westminster, the majority of them do not support Jeremy

Corbyn. Here is the crisis at the centre of the party because they

believe he cannot win an election for them. When it comes to the vote,

the people will decide the next leader of the Labour Party. Every MP

will get one vote just as one of those many hundreds of thousands who

have no special privileges. This will be a very hard-fought fight. It

is for the soul of the party. You will be helping us cover that story

over the next few months. The Islamic State group has released

a video that it says shows the teenager who carried out an axe

attack in Germany yesterday. We know the attacker

was shot dead by police - and that he was a 17-year-old

Afghan asylum seeker. This is a still from the video -

we see the man brandishing a knife and calls himself an "IS soldier"

who's preparing for The attack was near the city of

Wurzburg. Four people were injured -

all are from Hong Kong. The attack was on a train. This is a

image of two of the people who were attacked.

The South China Morning Post had this picture showing two of them.

Two of those people are still in a critical condition. A total of five

people were injured because another passer-by was injured while the

attacker was running away from the police. The attacker himself was

also shot dead by police whilst running away. Apparently he then

tried to attack the police as well. What we have to clarify as you have

mentioned quite rightly is that we have this video that ISC is the

attacker. We have no evidence that is the case. Officials in Bavaria

are analysing this video. They are looking at it to check the identity

of this man. Until we have confirmation we only really have the

word from the IES group who are claiming this is the attacker. IES

has also claimed that the attacker was acting under the orders. We have

to take that with the pinch of salt. So far there is no concrete evidence

from police and officials here that this attacker was formally linked to

other Islamist networks. So far, they say the only evidence they have

is that he was acting on his own. This could change because throughout

the day we've had new information coming through. We will have to

strike a note of caution because it is a different thing he was a lone

wolf acting on his own or acting with Islamic State as a source of

inspiration, or was he part of that network? Until we have the official

word from the authorities we cannot see which of those two marketers. Do

we know anything about where he was living, who he was living with, how

he was leading his life? Police have said that he arrived here in Germany

from Afghanistan about two years ago. He was just 15 years old. He

was an unaccompanied minor, like many from Afghanistan. Thousands of

young Afghans coming without their parents. Azzy young person, he was

able -- he was put into care in a refugee home at first. In the past

fortnight he stayed with the past fortnight he stayed with a foster

family. In a few minutes we'll be talking

about the racial abuse received by Leslie Jones -

star of Ghostbusters - on Twitter. And why Twitter isn't

doing more to stop it. Lincolnshire Police have confirmed

that a man and two women who died after a shooting in Spalding

were all known to one another. A little earlier, the police gave

more details about the incident. At the scene, the officers found a

deceased man along with two women who received serious injuries. CBR

was attempted on both women. I am sad to report that both women have

subsequently died. We believe a shotgun was involved in the incident

and are currently investigating the circumstances of this tragic

incident. We confirm that we are no longer seeking anyone else in

connection to this tragedy. I can also confirm that no shots were

fired by police and this is not being treated as a terrorist related

incident. This is Outside Source live

from the BBC newsroom. Our lead story is? The purge

of Turkish officials unleashed after the failed military coup has

spread to the education sector, The education sector has been

hard-hit today. From Syria, we are told by activist that at least 56

civilians including children have been killed in air strikes by the

US-led coalition. The strikes two villages held by ISIS militants in

northern Serbia. The fire on a true boss in Taiwan has killed all 26

people on board. They were tourists from mainland China and heading back

to the airport. -- in northern Syria. This is a mini heatwave in

the UK at the moment. There are some dust doubles that you can see on a

farm in the south of England. The weather looks set to continue.

The International Monetary Fund says the UK's decision to leave

the European Union had had a negative impact on the world

It's downgraded its forecast for global growth to 3.1%, a.1% drop.

The UK is now forecast to have 1.3% growth next year,

It says the UK will be the worst affected of all developed economies.

I've been getting the analysis of Andrew Walker.

People are thinking about what is Britain's trading relationship with

Europe and the rest of the world going to look like? There in mind

that even so, this is based on very little hard data. The only really

quite clear, unambiguous thing they have got apart from a few surveys

has been what happened in the financial markets. An episode which

the IMF describes as severe but orderly. This is very much a case of

the IMF saying we do think we're going to see some adverse

consequences for the UK but they are not forecasting a recession. Some

might be is a cynical eyebrow and see the IMF has interests in this

debate. It is not a neutral observer of what the UK and other countries

decide to do and as such, it is in its interest to paint Brexit is

negative. Some people would say that the managing director is very much

of the European integrationist type of tradition. She's a former finance

and Trade Minister in France. Some thinks she still has political

ambitions to go back there at some stage. This is an exercise that is

managed by the chief economist who is a former academic from the

California University. These figures do represent what the Economist who

genuinely believe that the UK and the rest of the world will be

looking at. What surprised me was not the UK growth forecast but both

that Nigeria and South Africa have seen that as well... This is not

about the British referendum result. It is partly about past falls in

commodity prices. Both countries, especially Nigeria, are having a

hard time. The fall in the oil price for Nigeria and metal prices for

South Africa. Nigeria also has power cuts and political issues. They are

quite striking downgrades. There are two countries that had a bit of an

upgrade. Brazil and Russia. It is not great news because they are

merely contracted slightly less rapidly than the winner.

Six years ago, the tobacco company, Philip Morris International

It claimed that the Uruguayan government's strong anti smoking

policies were damaging to business and free trade.

It was one of the first countries to introduce plain packaging

on cigarettes and covered much of the packaging

Well yesterday an arbitration court run by the World Bank,

ruled in favour of Uruguay and said they had the right to continue

Let us get more on the story. Lighter Sao Paulo. I am surprised in

some way that the government cannot do what it likes anyway? The entire

case that Philip Morris brought against Uruguay was based on

bilateral treatment that Uruguay signed with Switzerland. That treaty

has some clauses about trademarks and brands, and things like that.

That treaty was used to try to show that the rules that Uruguay applied

in the cigarette industry at home were in violation of those treaties.

The panel decided that was not the case and that Uruguay had all the

right it needed to actually pursue those packages which helped,

according to the health minister of Uruguay, to adjust the amount of

smokers in great numbers in about ten years. Thank you very much.

As you'll be well aware Pokemon Go has become a global phenomenon.

It launched on July 6th and since then Nintendo's

That makes Nintendo's market value higher than Sony.

All this begs the question whether such a sharp rise is sustainable?

That is the question. Investors at the moment seem to think it is worth

the money. They tend to be forward-looking. They think the

future now as a result of Pokemon Go and issue success, the future for

Nintendo has been brighter than has been in its recent past. The

question now that investors are asking, how much of the profit from

that game will go to the actual company? The answer is not that

simple. The developer is a company that is spun off of Google. Nintendo

had a stake in that. There is the Pokemon company which is the

producer of the game and Nintendo owns a stake in that. It will see

some benefit to its bottom line but not necessarily as much as perhaps

the rise in share price suggest. Is this a sign that companies like

Nintendo who traditionally have built their success on hardware

sales now see the future in selling apps or software? It was interesting

when the game first came out in the United States, one of the first sort

of comments I saw about this was somebody saying, for so long

Nintendo has been focused on consoles, the hardware, and that's

now perhaps it. To realise the value in some of its other franchisees.

Mario Brothers to mention just one. Whether he will start to see

Nintendo tried to make money out of that, smartphone apps, that this in

part why you see this huge valuation. Those people who would

justify the value see it is not just this game, it is what they can do

next. It unleashes potential that people had not seen in Nintendo for

a long time. For Pokemon, many people had forgotten about Nintendo.

If you asked about a Japanese gaming company and -- then Sony would be

the name that comes to mind. Thank you very much.

Social networking site Twitter has come under fire from a Hollywood

actress after she was the victim of a tirade of racial abuse.

This is Leslie Jones, she's one of the stars

of the all-female remake of Ghostbusters which

Last night she was pummelled with a barrage of racist tweets.

This is how the actress described it herself.

We will not sure many of them to you because it is offensive.

The abuse prompted Leslie Jones to take a swipe at twitter. She says it

needs to do more to deal with this type of behaviour.

''I didn't do anything to deserve this.

This is commonplace on Twitter. It is the fact that the barrage she got

and our own personal feeling, she called at her personal health. She

went on for about three hours on Twitter yesterday, treating the

abuse she got. Rogers races but misogynistic as well. Ghostbusters

has an all-female cast so there was criticism about that. She said she

had tears in her eyes and was coming off twitter. People across the

spectrum felt this was wrong and should not be happening. The play to

her for highlighting it. She is putting the onus on twitter but is

this not a matter of the law will stop if I was to treat racist abuse

and would be breaking the law in the UK and will be those in charge of

the law, not just the social media platforms... It is so hard to trace

anybody who is on twitter. The profile does not say who they are

all the need is an e-mail that can be registered anywhere in the world.

It is a process of the time to track down the originator which is

impossible. Twitter have said they are putting money and investment

into preventing this in the first place. They are not stopping it

after the tweets have happened, they are trying to sort it out before it

happens. That is a different can of worms and seems impossible. The CEO

of twitter, Jack Dorsey, messaged Leslie Jones and asked to direct

message him. We do not know if she took up on that offer. He intervened

personally. Twitter released a statement saying, we have blocked

lots of these accounts that were reported being connected with Leslie

Jones and are investing more in preventing this in the first place.

It does remain to be seen what they can do in the future. It is probably

a conversation they have every day at twitter. Presumably this is not

specific to Twitter, it is a problem for all Internet platforms? Anybody

can hide behind a keyboard and can be completely anonymous and it is

hard to track you down. You will have no worry or concern about

stating something they would not say to somebody in the street. They can

do it on a keyboard and now they will not be found out. If you want

more information on this you can get it on the BBC news app. The lead

story here at the BBC is that Turkey has suspended thousands of people

within the education sector as part of the response of the failed

military coup on Friday. We will bring you more details in the next

30 minutes.
