This is a programme run by Anna Akra, working to get more than

20,000 children into the education system in Lebanon, but schools are

at breaking point. This is one of the biggest schools in the area,

teaching more Syrian children then Lebanese. The headteacher tells me

of the toll it is taking. TRANSLATION: The school has a lot of

pressure on so many levels. It is putting a burden on the school

system, the infrastructure and equipment. We have a students. Now

we have at least double that, and the teachers all have to do double

shifts. But, as the conflict in Syria continues, more and more

children join the queue here for an education. All these four-year-olds

were born in Lebanon. Tents in the oppressive heat here are the only

homes they have ever known. But they are Syrian and, for them, any kind

None of these children live normal lives but it is hoped that with the

right preparation and education, they may have a more normal future.

So be long, BBC News. It is now 13:17. Our main story this

lunchtime: a teenager arrested in connection with a series of acid

attacks on people in London last night in the space of just 90

minutes. Still to come, a knock out wedding

dance, how a routine inspired by the dirty dancing film didn't exactly go

to plan. And coming up in the sport on BBC News, on men's semifinals day

in Wimbledon, still plenty of British interest with Jamie Murray

and Heather Watson involved in the mixed doubles.

Two police forces have become the first in the UK to launch a

specialised drone unit. Officers from Devon and Cornwall, and Dorset,

say a remote-controlled machines are helpful in searching for missing

people, responding to road crashes and the crime scene photography.

They are also a fraction of the cost of using helicopters as our home

affairs correspondent Daniel Sandford has been finding out.

It is the eye in the sky that comes at a fraction of the price. Police

drones seemed like a novelty only a feud years ago, but Devon and

Cornwall police and Dorset Police, have jointly launched Britain's

first dedicated drone unit. Soon, they will have five every camera is

available 24 hours of the day. It can do the same as a helicopter with

the cameras, zoom and thermal, and will give us it quicker if we are

dealing with an incident in pans ends, we have one in the back of the

car, we can put it up as quick as we can. The unit recorded these

extraordinary pictures of a fire in Exeter last October and are doing

more and more jobs which previously could only be done with a police

helicopter, which costs ?800 per hour. Put simply, a drone is an

incredibly cost-effective way for police to get a completely different

perspective on an area they are searching for a missing person or a

crime scene, or the scene of a disaster or road traffic accident.

And officers are hoping that soon they will be able to download live

pictures from drones direct to the force's main control room. The

future is, if you deal with a terrorist incident like Manchester

or London, a commander individual will have a link to see the aerial

footage to see clear pictures of the incident as it unfolds, allowing the

individual to make clear command decisions. Drones have already saved

lives. These pictures from America show how one with a thermal imaging

camera was used to track down two missing canoeists. The online

retailer Amazon has even filed this patron for a futuristic mini drone,

perched on a police offers a's shoulder, which can be

voice-activated to gather evidence. In whatever form, these drones with

their flying cameras are about to become an everyday site in British

policing. It's men's semi-finals day

at Wimbledon, with seven-time champion Roger Federer taking

on the 11th seed Tomas Berdych First up on Centre Court

are Marin Cilic of Croatia, and the American Sam Querrey,

who knocked Andy Murray out Our Sports Correspondent

David Ornstein is at The word legend is often overused in

sport. There is no doubting its accuracy when referring to Roger

Federer. Today, he bids to reach an 11th Wimbledon final. He might not

be a home player, but he is most revered.

In the end, it wasn't to be for the Brits, but in their absence, there

aren't many more popular at Wimbledon than Roger Federer. And

with his vigorous rivals failing to keep pace, glory is what again

within his grasp. I am a little surprised because I thought Rafa and

Andy had good chances to make the final. Andy was carrying an injury,

so was Novak. The other guys were playing well. These are really good

grass court players, and we have some big hitters in there. I am like

the small guy. We will see what happens, but it will not be my

racket, because these guys serve really big. Federer can play down

his chances, but his track record speaks for itself. No man has

enjoyed more success here than the Swiss, and he is not done yet.

Federer's tally of seven Wimbledon singles titles is matched only by

Pete Sampras. An eighth would make history, and further elevate his

status among the all-time sporting greats. I can't wait to see Roger

performing again, just because, as a tennis land, it is so beautiful to

watch. You are sitting there, you feel like tennis is easy when you

watch Roger Federer plays. He was born in the tennis. He knows

everything about what comes with tennis. I can't see him losing the

championship. Federer has beaten today's opponent Tomas Berdych in

each of their last seven meetings. For the winner, a place in the

final, and a shot at the trophy, a trophy Fedor ruck and almost call

his own. The first semifinal is underway.

Marin Cilic, two games against Sam Querrey. I am pleased to be joined

by Russell Fuller. He will be commentating on the Fedor ruck-

Cilic match... Berdych -- Roger Federer.

A huge opportunity against Tomas Berdych. He may be kept waiting to

take court, given that Cilic and Querrey have played a five and a

half hour match. Berdych is one of those players who probably recorded

more wins than most against them. But in recent years, it has been one

way traffic. Some impressive wins against dangerous opponent in the

last couple of rounds, against Grigor Dimitrov and the loss Raonic.

35-year-olds, even Roger Federer, can have a bad day. We will see on

Centre Court later. He is still going strong, explain Roger

Federer's legendary status in the game. It is extraordinary what he

has done this year. He had a period of injury. His back caused a lot of

problems in 2013. Last year, he had problems with his knee, Davin --

damaging it. He took six months out, rested and recuperated, and in 2017,

he has been unstoppable. Only two men have beaten him all year. You

have the definitive word from Russell Fuller. Roger Federer and

Tomas Berdych on court later. The biggest names in para athletics

will be in action later as the World Championships gets

under way at the London Stadium. Among British hopes are wheelchair

racer Hannah Cockroft, Many of the team competed in 2012,

including the marathon runner turned sprint star Richard Whitehead.

Kate Grey has been to meet him. Gold for Whitehead, breaks his own

world record. It was one of the iconic moments from the London 2012

Paralympic games. I will always remember that bars of when I came

off the bend in 2012, it was like a jet engine pulling me to the finish

line. Hence the reason I did the gun salute, which I am now remembered

for. What does it feel like to be back in London? Does it bring back

memories from 2012? It is a time where you kind of thing,"

memories from 2012? It is a time where you kind of it was a great

part of my career, and I was lucky enough to be successful. To be

honest, when you get back here, you go, "Was that me?" Unbeaten in the

200 metres since then, he returns to the stadium for this summer's World

Championships, which could be his final race in a Great Britain vest.

It will be in motion or if it is my last ever race. When I talk to

friends and family, they say, "Keep going." But I want to finish at the

top. Would double gold be enough to finalise his decision? Earlier this

season at a meet in Switzerland, he was six hundredths of a second of

the world record in the 100 metres. When you see me train, you don't see

a paralytic applet, you see an athlete. You see someone focused on

delivering a plan -- Paralympic athlete. I am trying to change and

make it right in London. Regardless of what he decides, there is no

doubt about the legacy he has had. I remember when I first had the

conversation with the performance director, and he said I was too old

for athletics. Look at where I am now. It shows anything is possible.

Whether you have a disability or not, everybody has a talent. It is

about enriching that. Richard isn't the only athlete out to prove he is

still at the top of his game, medallists from 2012 make up a

significant part of this year's team, hoping to improve and inspire

a nation again. The England cricket captain Joe Root

has called on his side to be "ruthless" against South Africa

in the second Test at Trent Bridge, South Africa won the toss and opted

to bat against the same England side which won the first test at Lords

by 211 runs. Here's our sports

correspondent Adam Wild. A warm welcome at Trent Bridge, that

is for the fans at least. Visiting teams will be all too aware that

this hospitality and friendly reception won't stretch as far as

them. No team has beaten England here for ten years. South Africa

have to make big improvements. England are a team with one thing on

their mind. A big victory in the first test, in no mood to let

pressure. South Africa's batsmen still hurting, and that wasn't about

to change either. England's pace uncomfortable, unsettling. When

James Anderson comes into bowl, Magic just seems to happen. A quite

brilliant catch from Liam Dawson, and England were picking up where

they left off. Anderson now has 300 Test wickets on home soil, the first

engagement to do that. Still, there is a reason why South Africa are

ranked as one of the world's topsides. Their batsmen with a point

to prove, no better time or place to do it. Not exactly making themselves

at home, for now at least, finding their way to the boundary.

Frustrating for all that they were forced to find a way back to the

pavilion, rain in Nottingham. Trent Bridge remains an inhospitable place

for visiting opposition players. A Somerset couple have found

themselves getting far more attention than they might have

anticipated after their attempts to recreate a famous dance scene

from the film Dirty Dancing Sharon Price and her fiance Andy

were hoping for a knockout wedding dance for their marriage next year

and thought they would try out Safe to say it did not

go according to plan. It's one of those moments in film.

Jennifer Grey launching herself into Patrick Swayze's hands, lifted above

the crowd. The dance move that created cinema history.

So why wouldn't Sharon and Andy Price want to create such an iconic

moment during the first dance on their wedding day? It is Patrick

Swayze, isn't it. Whether you like the film or not, the music in it is

what makes the film. So we decided to try some of it. After a couple of

drinks in a Somerset beer garden, the stage was set for the couple to

channel their inner jolly and baby. You took a run. You put your hands

on my hips, ready to lift. Next, we were flat on the floor. I think I

got knocked over, hitting the floor as hard as I did, and hitting the

back of my head. I had to have a CT scan. I was on a cannula, or

whatever they are called. They put me on ECG as well. Now on the mend,

the couple have agreed to tone down their wedding day performance. We

try to get over this first. Get back to normal. Yeah! We need a

traditional slow one. Good luck to them! My wedding dance

was more sedate than that, thank goodness. Will the weather be sedate

today? I was put something extreme, we talk

about heat. In Spain yesterday, the temperature reached 47.3 Celsius.

That is provisionally Spain's highest temperature on record. It is

a little bit cooler in Spain over the next couple of days, not by

much. Here, the best we get today is 22, most of us high teens and close

to 20. If you are not a fan of heat, you might appreciate this forecast.

Some sunny spells here and there, showers in north-west England, one

or two in eastern Scotland. They are fading to leave cloud and sunny

spells this afternoon. The Northern Ireland and western Scotland,

outbreaks of rain coming back in. Those are your temperatures,

comfortable, with a westerly breeze. Rain into Scotland and northern

England, cloud and outbreaks of rain, moving into west and Wales.

With the cloud, temperatures going down to the mid-to load teens. It

takes us into the weekend, Saturday is not very inviting, a lot of

cloud. Outbreaks of rain pushing east, not too much in the South. In

the afternoon, southern and eastern parts turning dry. It will brighten

up, but for the west facing hills of Wales, outbreaks of ring. A warm and

humid feeling day. Into Saturday evening, outbreaks of rain moving

out of Scotland and Northern Ireland. The Wimbledon, find this

afternoon. Tomorrow could have rain, that is around lunchtime. On Sunday,

cloud, and the threat, rather than a guarantee, of a shower. A week

weather front moving southwards across England and Wales on Sunday.

Cloud from that, and there could be a passing shower. On Sunday, for

northern England, and Scotland, a brighter, fresher, breezy day with

sunny spells. The weather front in East Anglia and in the south,

although still warm and humid, there could be a shower. It can't be ruled

out at Silverstone. It is the British Grand Prix. I want to leave

you with this. If you are a weekend worker, Monday and Tuesday, high

pressure building, warm weather coming by Tuesday, with thundery

showers heading our way. Forecast is online.

A reminder of our main story, a teenager is arrested in connection

with a series of acid attacks on Londoners.
