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

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

Religious leaders in France have called for extra security

at places of worship, after an elderly priest was killed

yesterday in an attack claimed by so-called Islamic State.

A video has emerged showing the attackers pledging

allegiance to the leader of the Islamic State group.

Donald Trump has caused more controversy by appearing to call

on Russia to find emails which were not released

by Hillary Clinton during an investigation into her use

Pope Francis has said the recent spate of attacks shows

He has just arrived in Poland for his first official visit there.

We'll hear from our correspondent in a moment.

And the latest on which Russian athletes will be -

What is Vladimir Putin making of the whole process?

From the Islamic State group's actions in Europe

The city of Qamishli is the northeastern Syria.

At least 40 people were killed and another 100 wounded.

It appears to have involved a truck loaded with explosives and a bomb

One local journalist gave us this view from the city.

I look upon this officer, they told me, they can't stop this kind of

attacks it has happened everywhere, not just here, everyone in Europe.

The other thing, it is a lot of the sadness, but, because they lost a

lot of the people, the same time they are telling, they cannot, IS

cannot kill this way, of the life inside us. We keep bleeding inside

this city. We will be rebuilding, what they are destroying now here.

When we saw details of this attack we wanted to understand why Islamic

State would target this city in particular.

It left a crate e it brought down buildings, the reason that they at

it because it is in a large liqueur dish controlled area. Right in the

remote North East, near the Turkish board earn which IS at one point

Didier Deschamps hold that but the Kurds forced them back. It's the

Kurds who are leading the main battle against IS, further west

round its stronghold of Raqqa and Aleppo province, this is to show

they can hit back against them, where ever, but I think it perhaps

could be seen as an sign of weakness, perhaps what we are seeing

next door in Iraq, whether losing on the battlefield they are beginning

to report again to suicide bombs and bigger suicide bombs, in Baghdad, as

they have lost territory to the Iraqi Army and pro-Government forces

they have launched a huge spate of bombings in Baghdad, worse than

anything we have seen for several years and maybe in Syria we will

start seeing that as well. Islamic State claim the responsibility for

this tact, also for the attack in Rouen in France yesterday, but

presumably the connection between the hierarchy of IS and tacts in

Syria and Europe are different. The hierarchy will be quite layered. I

mean, there are people who have to come to IS from all over the world,

so, it is original base is in Iraq and the Syrian conflictment as far

has the is concerned there are people who know that territory, they

know how to fight, they know all the alliances they have had with tribal

fighters etc, for years and years but they have many people who have

come from Europe, from North Africa who have the information to give

them about where to attack, how to tact in Europe. I think those

attack, if there is a command structure and some we have seen seem

more like these lone wolf after tacks where it was a last minute

decision by the person who carried out the tact to give their

allegiance to IS and they are more than happy to accept that, and seize

that as legitimate, you know, a role they are playing in those attacks as

the ones they are closely organising, but these other attacks

we have seen in France before the ones in Paris, Charlie Hebdo, they

were organised. We are still going to seize those attacks but they come

from a more direct leadership in Syria and in Iraq, that will draw on

the expertise of the fighters who have come from Europe, France,

Belgium, come from England. Thank you.

Still getting details of which Russian athletes

It's a complex affair, because the International Olympic

Committee has asked individual sports to rule on who can go.

They make that decision after a report found widespread

evidence of state-sponsored doping by the Russians.

So far, 108 Russians have been told they can't go -

These are the sports we're still waiting to hear from.

The ones who haven't decided yet, are grey. As I am saying it is a

complicated affair, you can keep up-to-date with every last

development through the BBC sport website.

Meanwhile Vladimir Putin making it very clear what he thinks of some

Russian athletes being banned from the Rio Olympics.

He says the medals won will be devalued.

He was at the Kremlin to meet those who are travelling to Rio,

and once again repeated that geopolitics was

Special north and Olympic Games are being hit obviously. The absence of

Russian sports people, leaders in main disciplines will degrees the

intensity of the competition and therefore-the spectacle of the

Olympic Games. Some interesting changes to the FA

Cup in the coming season. From the quarterfinal stage sides

will be able to use a fourth substitute if the game goes

to extra time. Let us bring in Chris Mitchell. I

thought the point of games that go into extra time is the players get

tired and we get more drama? Exactly. But you take a look at the

European Championships that we just enjoyed. Plenty of those games went

into extra time and it was turgid. Martin glen the FA chief executive

here in England says that having this rule where you can have a

fourth substitute in the last 30 minutes of a game that has gone into

extra time will add excitements and intrigue. I am not sure whether that

is going to be the case or not. Let us face it the FA Cup has with stood

the test of time. It is a brand that has outlasted many others and is

exciting in its own right. But this is an important development, it has

been tried already, an the Copa America, interestingly, in the final

there, where it was being trialled it wept into extra time and they

didn't use the fourth substitute. It will be trialled at the Olympics, in

Rio, so it has been tested round, I don't think it will make a big

difference. There is an important pack for, it is the health and

safety of the players. - factor. The FA want them protected in the FA

Cup, and it comes along with another rule change ahead of the European

Championship in the fact that referees can take water break, if it

is too hot they can stop the game, allow the players to take on water.

There is a serious side. To tell you the truth fans will be underwhelmed.

I would prefer to see time outs in football or something more exciting.

Or expanding goals. The goals get bigger and bigger. That could go on

forever Chris. Thank you very much. Chris live from the BBC Sports

Golf's fourth and final Major of the year is the US PGA.

it tees off at Baltusrol in New Jersey on Thursday.

It's not really given us time to digest the amazing end

Hendrik Stenson beat Phil Mickelson to win -

here he is on the prospect of doubling up.

I don't think I am going sit back and say OK, that was it, I am

finished. It is definitely the icing on the cake if I look at my career

to win a major Championship, that was the only thing I hadn't managed

to achieve. Now I have that, but at the same time you can look ahead and

try and win another one, so, I think I still have a good few years in me,

I will try and keep on developing, if you don't the young guys will

come up and and take over, so, I still think I have a bit of fight in

me. The Turkish authorities have been

giving more details of the failed They say nearly 9,000

soldiers were involved. That's about 1.5% of the country's

Armed Forces. Also detention warrants have been

issued for another 47 journalists. Already, over 8,000 people

have been arrested. This failed coup has affected

so many people in different ways. This is the story of one woman whose

husband died that night. There is a great deal of information

on that failed coup through the BBC News app.

In a few minutes time, we are going to talk about the ice bucket

challenge, remember that from a cup of years ago when people were

chucking buck kits of ice over their heads. If you thought these things

make a difference, this in case it has made a huge difference, we will

tell you in a few minutes. The overtime bill for hospital

consultants has risen by more than a third in the past two years

across the UK. A BBC investigation has found that

one doctor in Lancashire earned Hospitals are blaming a shortage

in consultants and rising demand for the overtime,

but ministers say the way doctors Here's our health correspondent,

Dominic Hughes. A specialised eye examination

under way in Wigan. Here, they've changed

the way they work. Saving money that was paid

to consultants to do extra shifts. So, instead of a doctor,

an expert nurse now sees That keeps the hospital's finances

under control and frees up consultants to treat

the really-complex cases. The main benefit is that we as

an organisation have less financial pressure because we're not having

to pay out these premium pay rates. By working together, we can solve

some pretty tricky problems. And the bottom line is it's

the patients who benefit. But many other hospitals

are facing a rising bill The average basic salary

for a consultant is ?89,000 a year. Across the UK, extra overtime cost

?160 million last year. One doctor made nearly ?375,000

in 12 months at a Trust where a shortage of consultants

means a heavy workload. There's too much demand

and there aren't enough consultants. So what you're trying to do

is to ask a workforce that is already stretched

to and sometimes beyond its limits It's simply an effect of too much

demand, too few consultants. Specialist nurses like Ewan now

carry out procedures that once That's better for patients

because they can get to see Ewan a lot more frequently and it saves

the hospital an awful lot of money. At present each hospital trust can

make its own arrangements on how it NHS employers want more continuity,

with a common approach to how extra The changes put in place at Wigan

demonstrate it is possible to cut But health service managers

in England hope a new contract for consultants currently

being negotiated will help end The lead story here comes from

France, where religious leaders are calling for extra security at places

of worship, after a priest was killed yesterday in his church. An

a video has merged showing the attackers pledging allegiance to the

leader of IS. Let me show you what you have coming

Let me show you what you have coming up.

If you're outside of the UK, it's World News America next.

They have a report from Iraq by BBC's chief international

She returns to the scene of Islamic State's deadliest attack.

Here in the UK, the News at Ten is next, with the Labour leadership

He has been outlining his policy agenda.

Earlier, we talked about this Donald Trump statement earlier.

He said - or joked, depending on who you ask -

that if Russia is listening, "I hope you're able to find

He's talking about Hillary Clinton's emails.

This is the context of the FBI investigating claims that a leak

of Democratic party emails was conducted by Russia,

How much credibility do these claims have?

Tack that was claimed by the Islamic State group, in a separate

development a video has merged showing the attackers pledging

allegiance to the leader of IS. Let me show you what you have coming

up. The BBC's Kate Dailey has been

following this story in our news room in Washington DC. I guess the

first question everyone asks when they hear this story is is it in any

way credible? Well, the FB. It has been looking into it and they have

said or they are very certain, or almost as certain as one can be the

Russian Government was involved in this e-mail hack. It is not unusual

for Russia to throw its weight round in other election, we have seen it

in eastern European-of-Europe, in France this is the first time we

have seen it in the US, people are concerned. Why would the Russians

want do that? We should say they deny it, but if they did, why would

they do it? Well, there has been something of what one Clinton

adviser called a bromance between Donald Trump and Putin. Putin has

shown to be favourable for candidates who are in favour of a

divided Europe who are opposed the Europe, things that MrTrump has

spoken out in favour of. At the same time, Trump's many of his foreign

advisers have tied either to oen insiders or to Russian oligarchs,

so, some pundits in the US have been asking Trump more questions about

what his ties are with Russia, whether they just happen tole a line

with Putin, people are concerned. A man whose name is coming up a lot is

the Trump campaign manager, how does he fit into this equation? He works

and started a lobbying firm in DC that works with unsavoury characters

throughout the world but he and victor Jankovic have a political

love match. They work very closely together, starting after the Orange

Revolution, and their interests are closely aligned now he is main

adviser for Donald Trump and some people are wondering what that means

for Trump's foreign policy especially considering that Trump

himself is inexperienced in that field. Thank you for updating us.

The Russians say this is a ridiculous idea, the Trump campaign

have given it short shrift. The Pope will preside over

a Catholic youth festival - World Youth Day - which involves

hundreds of thousands of young Here are some of the pictures that

came in earlier. We carried them on BBC News, the Pope is to preside

over a Catholic youth festival called World Youth Day, hundreds of

thousands of young people come in. To give you an idea of how big that

is over 150,000 Italians are coming to this, but on his way to Poland,

the Pope spoke to journalist tonnes plane and was asked about this

recent spate of attacks in Europe. TRANSLATION: The world is at war, in

pieces. There was the war of 1914, with its methods, then the big war

of 1939-1945. And now this. It is not organic. Organised, yes,

but not organic. But it is war. This holy priest, who

died at the very moment in which he offered the prayer for peace, is one

but how many Christians, how many more innocent people, how many more

children will die? We talked to Tom Burridge earlier.

He is here for World Youth Day, a huge celebration, a massive date in

the Catholic Church's calendar. Hundreds of thousands of people from

all over the world, a contingent from France here, lots of French

flags and singing, a sense of solidarity I think and interesting

comments from the Pope. Pope Francis does not mince his words and he has

come out with a bold statement, even before touching the ground here in

Krakow, saying to that the world is at war, and that religion is not the

cause of that war but it is more about money and power, so, possibly,

I think, one of the boldest statements yesterday from Pope

Francis. Looks like a busy atmosphere behind

you. Give us an idea of what takes place? It is a great atmosphere,

there has been some sadness about the killing of the priest in France

yesterday, but I think this is massive celebration, it is five

days, it is called World Youth Day confusingly but five days of

celebration, they have been big mass, seminars on Catholic issues,

and debates, and then of course the main event, really, surrounding of

course Pope Francis himself, on Friday, he will visit the former

Nazi concentration camp at Auschwitz on the enedge of the city. Tonight

he has already addressed the faithful, he has already spoken

after meeting with leader es of the Catholic Polish church an he has met

with the Prime Minister and the President and interestingly, he has

made comments about the issue of immigration, sort of subtle

criticism of the tough anti-immigration stance of the

Polish Government, saying that Governments like the Polish

Government need to do more to welcome refugee, genuine refugees

and asylum seekers who come to Europe. We will talk to Tom

tomorrow. It is often easy to dismiss viral

charity campaigns as being more about virtue signalling

than actually making a difference. Not so in the case of

the Ice Bucket Challenge - Well, it raised millions -

and has bankrolled I do not it is Presidential, for me

to be splashed with ice water, so I am simply going to write you a

cheque. It was a simple concept. For pour a bucket of iced water over

your head, nominate others to do the same, raise money for motor neurone

disease. It was the brainchild of Peter and

his friend Pat, both diagnosed with the condition. Critics called it,

particularly when celebrities jumped on the band wagon. It raised $115

million and now we know where the money has gone and what it has done.

Six research projects were funded by the stunt, and scientists say that

researches helped them identify a new gene that contributes to the

disease. Called NEK 1, the gene is only

linked to a small number of inherited case, but experts say the

discovery could lead to new treatments.

Senator Tim cane has been formally nominated selected, as Hillary

Clinton's running mate in the US Presidential election. Speak to you

tomorrow. Hello, as get into August it look

like the weather might become more energised. Stay attuned to see what

I mean by that, at the moment, though, things are quite placid,

nothing too extreme. We have a weather system pushing in off the

Atlantic, there
