let's have a look at some of the main stories here. The truce has | :00:13. | :00:21. | |
come into effect in Syria. It was brokered by Russia and the USA. | :00:22. | :00:29. | |
Where does President Assad fit in? David Cameron has left the politics | :00:30. | :00:35. | |
and is no longer a MP. He announced this decision today, just a couple | :00:36. | :00:39. | |
of months when he stood down as Prime Minister. | :00:40. | :02:03. | |
It is the United States that is supporting rebels groups on the | :02:04. | :02:10. | |
ground. They sent letters to respective parties telling them what | :02:11. | :02:14. | |
is expected from them in the framework of this truce. So they | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
have no options, technically, but looking closer, President Assad has | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
survived so far and he is offering himself out as a partner in the war | :02:26. | :02:29. | |
against terrorism. This is what he will say, we will liberate this | :02:30. | :02:32. | |
country, we will reclaim every single village in Syria from these | :02:33. | :02:38. | |
terrorists. Who are these terrorists, for him? Everyone. So he | :02:39. | :02:44. | |
has done something very provocative, going into an area formerly held by | :02:45. | :02:48. | |
rebels, making quite a statement that this is no our territory. He is | :02:49. | :02:56. | |
trying to make a show of force before the ceasefire, saying, | :02:57. | :03:01. | |
hockey, a few weeks ago this area was under... This is the riot? A few | :03:02. | :03:07. | |
weeks ago this post was a no-go area for Government forces. -- this was a | :03:08. | :03:14. | |
riot. Sending a strong message saying this is not the end of it. We | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
will not stop until we reclaim and take back every single village. -- | :03:21. | :03:25. | |
this was Daraya. This is a strong message about the ceasefire by | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
itself because the ceasefire, some people think this is the end, no it | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
is not, it is the end of a phase may be and there are a lot of questions | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
regarding the fermentation and about the exceptions and the | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
interpretations of the so-called terrorist groups on the ground that | :03:42. | :03:47. | |
the Russians and Americans will cooperate together to target. So | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
there are big questions but at least it will help relieve the situation | :03:52. | :03:53. | |
of these civilians who suffered during the past months and years and | :03:54. | :04:00. | |
this area of Aleppo, they were deprived of the basic needs, | :04:01. | :04:04. | |
medical, food, all these things we expect to see following inside the | :04:05. | :04:07. | |
city starting from today or tomorrow. We're lucky to be able to | :04:08. | :04:13. | |
turn to our colleagues at BBC Arabic on stories like this. | :04:14. | :04:18. | |
Let's turn to a story we have covered several times a couple of | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
weeks ago, an NFL player was a huge controversy by not standing for the | :04:24. | :04:28. | |
US national anthem. He did this during the NFL preseason. | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
Well, we've just had the NFL opening weekend and other players | :04:34. | :04:36. | |
Marcus Peters of the Kansas City Chiefs | :04:37. | :04:40. | |
was one of several players who raised fists or knelt. | :04:41. | :04:44. | |
Cappernick's been talking about what he's trying to achieve. | :04:45. | :04:52. | |
The message is that we have a lot of issues in this country that we need | :04:53. | :04:57. | |
to deal with. We have a lot of people that are pressed, we have a | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
lot of people that are not treated equally, are not given equal | :05:03. | :05:06. | |
opportunities. Police brutality is a huge thing that needs to be | :05:07. | :05:10. | |
addressed. There are a lot of issues that need to be talked about, need | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
to be brought to light, we need to fix those. You have probably seen | :05:16. | :05:22. | |
from the top he was wearing, he plays for the San Francisco 49ers. | :05:23. | :05:32. | |
His jersey is number six in the top sellers list. There is no way that | :05:33. | :05:36. | |
shirt would have been anywhere near the top six before this. There is | :05:37. | :05:41. | |
some suggestion that what he's doing is resonating, and it is selling | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
very well! If you want to get more information | :05:46. | :05:50. | |
on that story and on the NFL generally, you can get that on the | :05:51. | :05:54. | |
BBC Sport app. And we will still the number of | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
sports stories now. I want to focus on one athlete at the Paralympics, | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
she is from Belgium and she won a silver in the wheelchair racing. It | :06:04. | :06:09. | |
has emerged patchy signed euthanasia papers in 2008. Some of the Belgian | :06:10. | :06:15. | |
press are reporting patchy might have chosen to take a life after the | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
Rio Games, something she has denied. She addressed all this in an | :06:22. | :06:23. | |
extraordinary press conference. It was his cell door on Saturday | :06:24. | :06:33. | |
that the Marieke Vervoort onto the podium, but it was a decision she | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
took eight years ago that forced her into the spotlight. -- it was a | :06:38. | :06:42. | |
silver. She suffers from an incurable disease and in 2008 some | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
papers allowing her to take a lie. Euthanasia is legal in Brazil -- | :06:48. | :06:53. | |
units that euthanasia is illegal and Belgium but illegal in Brazil. | :06:54. | :07:03. | |
I am still enjoying every moment is and whether the moment comes then I | :07:04. | :07:08. | |
have more bad days than good days then I have my euthanasia papers but | :07:09. | :07:13. | |
the time is not there yet. The pain of living with her condition led to | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
her exploring the option of euthanasia. Constant pain, seizures | :07:19. | :07:23. | |
and paralysis of the legs off and leaves her barely able to sleep. | :07:24. | :07:28. | |
Being open about her decision she hopes to create understanding and | :07:29. | :07:35. | |
break the stigma around the issue. I hope other countries like Brazil | :07:36. | :07:40. | |
can talk about this and it is not a taboo. That it makes people live | :07:41. | :07:51. | |
longer. It does not mean they have two dry two weeks after they sign | :07:52. | :07:58. | |
the papers. I -- they do not have to dry. I signed my papers in 2008 and | :07:59. | :08:06. | |
now it is 2016. In spite of the challenges she achieved a | :08:07. | :08:12. | |
distinctive career. She won the 100 metres gold in London 2012 and next | :08:13. | :08:16. | |
Saturday she will defend that vital in the last event of her final | :08:17. | :08:21. | |
Paralympics but it certainly will not be her final chapter. -- defend | :08:22. | :08:29. | |
that title. People been saying whatever they | :08:30. | :08:34. | |
think about euthanasia it may have made people think again. | :08:35. | :08:35. | |
Owen Morgan is England's one-day and he's chosen not to tour | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
Bangladesh because of security concerns. | :08:41. | :08:42. | |
It's not gone down well with former England captain. | :08:43. | :08:51. | |
Alex Hales is the second player who's opted out. | :08:52. | :08:55. | |
No international side has toured Bangladesh since 20 people were | :08:56. | :08:58. | |
Let's bring in will parade. Not much sympathy from Michael Vaughan for | :08:59. | :09:14. | |
this decision but from other quarters has he found any? This one | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
has divided opinion. You heard Michael Vaughan's. And he said there | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
would be a bit of banter created and he will have to take some stick. | :09:27. | :09:32. | |
Nasser Hussain said he should be with the team but the British | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
Foreign Office said there is a heightened threat of further attacks | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
in Bangladesh so they cannot be blamed not for going all that threat | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
level applies to many other European cities, including London. The | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
standard and captain says as a colleague and friend everyone | :09:52. | :09:54. | |
respects the decision. Graeme Swann says if he was in the situation he | :09:55. | :10:00. | |
would not go either. Ben Stokes has backed them also. The director of | :10:01. | :10:05. | |
cricket suggested there would be no impact on future selection for | :10:06. | :10:14. | |
players not to go. England have 14 scheduled games before they begin | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
their tour against Bangladesh. They sure they cannot ditch their captain | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
who led them to this great run, the best one day run in a long time. | :10:24. | :10:33. | |
They received assurances from some 25 people in various roles, so to | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
get that many people on the plane is impressive, with that at six weeks | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
ago the hall tonight was off so to get them on the plane at this stage | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
and only having two not going is pretty impressive. | :10:50. | :10:50. | |
Thank you for filling us in. US Ryder cup captain | :10:51. | :10:52. | |
David Love has named three Last month, Europe's captain | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
Darren Clarke named Lee Westwood, Martin Kaymer and rookie | :10:57. | :11:12. | |
Thomas Pieters as his The last pick will come just before | :11:13. | :11:14. | |
the Ryder Cup starts on September 30th in Hazeltine, | :11:15. | :11:20. | |
Minnesota. Plenty more on that story and many | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
others on the BBC sport Still to come, or we will play a | :11:24. | :11:48. | |
report speaking to evangelicals in America who have been telling her | :11:49. | :11:52. | |
about what they think American values are. | :11:53. | :12:02. | |
website at the moment is the BBC has announced it has lost the contract | :12:03. | :12:23. | |
to show the next series of The Great British Baked. Channel 4 have signed | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
a deal to take the show. The company says money and further development | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
of the band were key to the decision. Here is the editor of | :12:32. | :12:34. | |
Broadcast Magazine. The production company at the BBC have been locked | :12:35. | :12:38. | |
in talks for many months so there were huge question marks. It was | :12:39. | :12:45. | |
always a sense that they were iron out the differences and find some | :12:46. | :12:49. | |
common ground and now that has not happened and the big surprise is | :12:50. | :12:55. | |
that it went to Channel 4. ITV seems a more natural home for this kind of | :12:56. | :13:00. | |
show but Channel 4 moved quickly, they have a strong relationship with | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
the production company. There is already a sense, the king of social | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
media, people saying I will not watch it. The company that makes the | :13:10. | :13:17. | |
show will stay the same. They own the rights to the format. If they | :13:18. | :13:21. | |
can convince the talent to go as well that will be a big thing. Loft | :13:22. | :13:27. | |
on the right and they can make sure exactly the same way. -- aloft. | :13:28. | :13:34. | |
There is no sense that because it is a commercial channel it will change | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
the show. We expect to see some changes, there may be some product | :13:40. | :13:43. | |
placement, for example. They have sold the show around the world in a | :13:44. | :13:50. | |
different territories and Love already has the right and America | :13:51. | :13:54. | |
where they tried to treat an American hit based on the show. -- | :13:55. | :14:01. | |
creates an American hit. Bit of game an odd way. It was a mid week BBC | :14:02. | :14:07. | |
Two show that became the biggest show on British TV. It came about in | :14:08. | :14:11. | |
the in the documentary department at the BBC. It is not being made on | :14:12. | :14:17. | |
huge tariff like some of the Hugh Saturday night entertainment | :14:18. | :14:23. | |
juggernauts. -- huge Saturday night. There are things have been at the | :14:24. | :14:27. | |
circus and it will be interesting to see how the relationship between the | :14:28. | :14:32. | |
BBC and Love Productions goes from here. | :14:33. | :14:42. | |
We are light in the BBC newsroom. Our lead story comes from Senator. | :14:43. | :14:48. | |
It was brokered by the Americans and Russians. So far it is holding. Up, | :14:49. | :14:56. | |
if you are outside the UK it is world News America. Much more on the | :14:57. | :15:03. | |
ceasefire in setting up and a report from a town in Syria recently | :15:04. | :15:07. | |
liberated from the Islamic state. In the UK the News at ten is next. The | :15:08. | :15:12. | |
Durham's plans for expanding selection in schools have been | :15:13. | :15:17. | |
presented -- the Government's plans. We will have a full report. | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
Now, an unlikely but important story. | :15:22. | :15:24. | |
George Clooney, the actor, commissioned a report | :15:25. | :15:26. | |
Today it was released - and it's headline claim is that both | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
sides of the conflict there have been getting | :15:33. | :15:34. | |
In particular, the finger is pointed at President Salva Kiir, | :15:35. | :15:43. | |
Civil war has spawned the world's youngest country apart. For nearly | :15:44. | :16:04. | |
three years the fall out with two of South Sudan's most powerful men, the | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
former vice president and the president, led to ethnic -based | :16:10. | :16:13. | |
violence and terrible atrocities committed by both sides. 2.5 million | :16:14. | :16:19. | |
people forced from their homes, millions more need food aid. Now an | :16:20. | :16:24. | |
investigative unit backed by George Clooney has linked the men to. This | :16:25. | :16:32. | |
war is about the rival factions trying to gain control of the state. | :16:33. | :16:39. | |
We're talking everything from airlines to banks, oil companies, | :16:40. | :16:44. | |
mining companies, casinos. It seems a very small number of people | :16:45. | :16:48. | |
control a large part of the economy in the country and many of these | :16:49. | :16:55. | |
people are also the people in power. The report alleges dodgy business | :16:56. | :17:00. | |
deal and nepotism. The President's wife and the seven of the children | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
are linked to a range of businesses and it says a 12-year-old son had a | :17:05. | :17:09. | |
25% share in a holding company and the Clintons brother-in-law's | :17:10. | :17:11. | |
company supplied fuel to the military. -- and his brother-in-law. | :17:12. | :17:24. | |
It is the -- it appears he was geared -- engaged in negotiations to | :17:25. | :17:30. | |
sell oil production for weapons to fuel his rebellion. We also got | :17:31. | :17:33. | |
evidence a nephew of his was involved in a file and hostile | :17:34. | :17:41. | |
takeover of a security company. Several of the members of the | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
company were held hostage and forced to sign cheques. The report says | :17:46. | :17:53. | |
numerous generals have luxury villas in different countries and here in | :17:54. | :17:58. | |
Nairobi both men have homes in the same upscale neighbourhood. George | :17:59. | :18:07. | |
Clooney and rights activist took a practical interest in sedan and | :18:08. | :18:09. | |
South Sudan for many years and their report says the endeavour to contact | :18:10. | :18:16. | |
every individual and entity and in most cases they did not respond. A | :18:17. | :18:21. | |
larger peacekeeping force is due to bring a piece of the back on track | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
but there is the confidence the crisis will be dissolved any time | :18:26. | :18:31. | |
soon. We have a report on Kenya, India, | :18:32. | :18:36. | |
USA and the UK and now let's turn to Saudi Arabia. One year ago there was | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
a stampede during the Hajj pilgrimage, killing thousands. This | :18:43. | :18:45. | |
year an estimated 1.8 million Muslims are travelling to America in | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
Saudi Arabia and they have gathered in a place called Mina. They go to | :18:50. | :18:57. | |
perform a ritual known as the stoning of the devil. It was there | :18:58. | :19:04. | |
where the stampede took place last year. | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
Our reporter is there. An endless flow of people from all around the | :19:09. | :19:12. | |
world, pilgrims come here to this huge tented city of's released only | :19:13. | :19:17. | |
devil. They stay for two or three days. Many of them are holding | :19:18. | :19:24. | |
umbrellas because it is a very hot, about 40 Celsius. The humidity is | :19:25. | :19:30. | |
high as well. It is mainly in Mina were tragic events happen during the | :19:31. | :19:35. | |
Hajj. During the past decade numerous accidents have taken, the | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
worst being the stampede last year and killed hundreds, possibly | :19:41. | :19:45. | |
thousands, of pilgrims. The Saudi authorities say they are taking all | :19:46. | :19:49. | |
the necessary measures to provide maximum protection for the pilgrims. | :19:50. | :19:56. | |
We are walking on a multilevel bridge built recently by Saudi | :19:57. | :19:59. | |
Arabia for pedestrians only. Pilgrims walk along this way until | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
they reach the area where the Stallings starts. | :20:06. | :20:16. | |
-- where the stoning starts. This year is not as crowded as previous | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
years, especially in Mina. It is much calmer and better because we | :20:21. | :20:31. | |
have space to perform rituals. This year it is not like the other | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
here. Everything is nice and organised. We find everything we | :20:37. | :20:50. | |
need. This is a blessing. 'S I find things more organised this | :20:51. | :20:56. | |
year with the roads and the gates. Entrances to the for the places. | :20:57. | :21:02. | |
This is one of the main pillars which Muslims believe represent the | :21:03. | :21:06. | |
devil. It is the biggest one of them. Stoning starts and continues | :21:07. | :21:15. | |
for a few days. The loud knowledge again here is that of the huge fans | :21:16. | :21:23. | |
all around us -- the loud noise. When the stoning is done the Hajj is | :21:24. | :21:28. | |
almost come to an end and then they go to the grand Mosque in Mecca one | :21:29. | :21:30. | |
last time and then they can leave. Last week Donald Trump addressed | :21:31. | :21:36. | |
a large annual gathering of religious conservatives called | :21:37. | :21:38. | |
the Value Voters summit. It's about asserting a set | :21:39. | :21:40. | |
of values that some feel Here's Rajini Vaidyanathan trying | :21:41. | :21:43. | |
to understand what those values are. It is difficult to be a conservative | :21:44. | :22:01. | |
Christian in America today. They have taken God out of the country | :22:02. | :22:08. | |
and we need to get God back in. It does not matter who is elected | :22:09. | :22:11. | |
president because God is on his throne. A recent survey nine out of | :22:12. | :22:20. | |
ten Christians say America does not represent their values. Many | :22:21. | :22:25. | |
freedoms have been taken away. Freedom of religion has been taken | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
away. We moved so far in the other direction we lost sight of what made | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
America exceptional. What American values mean today? We live a life | :22:37. | :22:45. | |
with God and brought by the Bible. Basic instructions before leaving | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
Earth. Any questions? Society is changing in the USA. Abortion has | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
been legalised and more recently same-sex marriage. The country is | :22:57. | :22:59. | |
more diverse than ever, not in terms of just demographics but also | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
release. Same-sex marriage, divorce, abortion. Any of those policies are | :23:05. | :23:11. | |
against God's will. When a woman is sexually active she | :23:12. | :23:16. | |
should be responsible and not thinking I don't believe what this | :23:17. | :23:19. | |
baby out will abort it. The baby should have rights as well. Some of | :23:20. | :23:26. | |
the changes brought about in the last few years like gay marriage | :23:27. | :23:30. | |
they reflect the changing society though, aren't they? They are. And | :23:31. | :23:40. | |
do you support it? No. The Christian population share fell, but faith | :23:41. | :23:45. | |
still matters. One third of Republican voters are white | :23:46. | :23:50. | |
evangelicals, more than 70% say the reward Trump. I vote for Donald | :23:51. | :23:56. | |
Trump because I'm concerned for these as soon -- Supreme Court | :23:57. | :24:00. | |
nominations. The next president will get the court appointments. I | :24:01. | :24:05. | |
believe we need to elect a non-career politicians. Hillary or | :24:06. | :24:16. | |
Tron? Neither. -- Hillary Donald Trump. We must decide whether we | :24:17. | :24:22. | |
support someone who does not share all our values but does support some | :24:23. | :24:30. | |
of them. He is easily times married philanderer who does not conduct his | :24:31. | :24:36. | |
