:03:10. > :03:12.the message they are very serious about catching those who dope,
:03:13. > :03:24.Chris Mitchell joins us live from the BBC Sports Centre.
:03:25. > :03:32.Chris, after all these years, how is it that athletes could be caught out
:03:33. > :03:38.now? Well, as Richard alluded to, this is really science catching up
:03:39. > :03:42.with the dopers, if you like. The IOC tries to give it as much time as
:03:43. > :03:47.possible to use those frozen test samples it took from the games to
:03:48. > :03:50.find the dopers. So basically, it freezes them, keeps them in
:03:51. > :03:53.Switzerland, where they are based, and tests than when any new
:03:54. > :03:58.technology comes about. This is what happened is that what has happened
:03:59. > :04:03.now. Beijing in 2008, eight years ago, comes within its parameters.
:04:04. > :04:08.They have tested 450 odd samples, and found 31 discrepancies, the same
:04:09. > :04:12.is happening with the London games, and also, interestingly, with Sochi
:04:13. > :04:18.as well. So we don't know who these 31, but they won't be the only ones.
:04:19. > :04:23.That is looking pretty certain. What action can the IOC now take?
:04:24. > :04:28.If these people are found to have cheated, they will be banned from
:04:29. > :04:32.Rio, and they could have their medals, if they won medals in
:04:33. > :04:36.Beijing, stripped from them, so you could find that models are handed to
:04:37. > :04:40.athletes who thought at the time they did not win. It is adjusting,
:04:41. > :04:43.because we are talking about this now, and an athlete we heard from in
:04:44. > :04:50.this piece said it takes too long. The IOC want to do that would prove
:04:51. > :04:53.here, with the Kenyan and Russian scandals and allegations going on,
:04:54. > :04:57.that they are on the front foot, doing something proactive about
:04:58. > :05:02.this, trying to get a poacher out there into the dopers early on
:05:03. > :05:06.before Rio comes about. Rio will begin a couple of months, and the
:05:07. > :05:10.IOC will love to be in a situation where they can say, we have dealt
:05:11. > :05:15.with the dopers. But all they can do at the moment is look at these 31,
:05:16. > :05:20.if they are hoping to be in Rio, well, they will not be. The first
:05:21. > :05:22.course of action the IOC will take will be to ban them.
:05:23. > :05:27.We don't have any details about these competitors yet. When might we
:05:28. > :05:32.know more? There are 12 nations here. The IOC
:05:33. > :05:38.said those 31 athletes will be contacted in the coming days. It may
:05:39. > :05:42.be that the athletes themselves know who they are. It may be that some of
:05:43. > :05:46.this information in the coming days leaks out. It is very unusual for
:05:47. > :05:50.the IOC to have told us that such information. 31 athletes, 12
:05:51. > :05:55.nations, lots of clues out there, and there will be people out there
:05:56. > :06:00.now looking at who won medals in Beijing and who could possibly be
:06:01. > :06:05.competing in Rio. There are not too many. Already, the names have been
:06:06. > :06:08.narrowed down to a list, not a list that we will mention here, but it is
:06:09. > :06:17.not hard to work out. Thank you very much, Chris Mitchell.
:06:18. > :06:20.Militants have yet again targeted Iraq's capital Baghdad in another
:06:21. > :06:23.wave of bombings. Outdoor markets and a restaurant in Shia dominated
:06:24. > :06:25.areas where hit, with more than 70 people dying.
:06:26. > :06:27.The Islamic State group said it was responsible
:06:28. > :06:30.for the deadliest bombing, as Jim Muir reports from Baghdad.
:06:31. > :06:39.There are growing concerns about the ability of Iraq's dysfunctional
:06:40. > :06:41.government to keep the areas of control so.
:06:42. > :06:49.The first and most deadly attack hit a street market in this district of
:06:50. > :06:53.Baghdad, a densely Shia populated area. So-called Islamic State said
:06:54. > :06:55.one of their suicide bombers blew himself up here, and claimed the
:06:56. > :07:00.attack was aimed at Shia militia men. That is not what the people
:07:01. > :07:03.here said. This survivor said he hid under a table, and rescuers took
:07:04. > :07:07.away body parts of shoppers who were no longer recognisable. There was
:07:08. > :07:13.much anger at the random nature of the attack.
:07:14. > :07:18.TRANSLATION: The explosion here killed a woman. And her brother and
:07:19. > :07:22.her niece, as well as of the people who just came here to shop. What
:07:23. > :07:26.crime have these innocent people committed? Across town on the East
:07:27. > :07:29.side of Baghdad, there was anger as well in the sprawling Shia suburb
:07:30. > :07:34.called Sadr City. This was the aftermath of a big
:07:35. > :07:38.suicide car bomber poison, which took many lives. Sadr City has
:07:39. > :07:42.frequently been the subject of such provocative attacks by the sunny
:07:43. > :07:45.militants. Another suicide bomber struck shortly after this attack
:07:46. > :07:50.nearby. This is the second blast inside. The
:07:51. > :07:53.other blast was outside a restaurant Al sparing the city. We are fed up
:07:54. > :07:57.with this violence. With bombs going off on busy streets
:07:58. > :08:01.like there is virtually every day, the Iraqi authorities and western
:08:02. > :08:05.coalition, which is fighting IS, say they believe it is because the
:08:06. > :08:08.militants are losing so much ground on the battlefield. They say they
:08:09. > :08:13.have lost nearly half the territory they control at the height of their
:08:14. > :08:16.expansion nearly two years ago. That is little consolation for the
:08:17. > :08:19.survivors of these increasingly frequent bomb attacks in Baghdad,
:08:20. > :08:25.and for the friends and families of those who died. There is mounting
:08:26. > :08:28.anger here, not just at the militants who did it, but the
:08:29. > :08:30.country's feuding politicians for failing to protect the public.
:08:31. > :08:32.Across the Iraqi border in Syria, a shaky truce

:13:32. > :13:35.Tell us what has happened to you. It really has been one thing after
:13:36. > :13:39.another? Yes, I have been evacuated two weeks
:13:40. > :13:45.ago. I got a phone call to return to work, so I showed up, completed a
:13:46. > :13:48.night shift, and then the next night, I woke up to complete
:13:49. > :13:54.darkness in the middle of the day. Smoke and ashes. We have been
:13:55. > :13:58.evacuated now, 40 kilometres north of that camp. We're just waiting on
:13:59. > :14:02.word to see what happens next. So you went to one camp, went back
:14:03. > :14:07.to work, and had to leave again and go even further north?
:14:08. > :14:11.That's right. The wind continues to blow from the south, pushing north,
:14:12. > :14:13.and unfortunately, the fire and the smoke has just followed right behind
:14:14. > :14:19.us. And what is it like there? How many
:14:20. > :14:23.are you, and what I conditions like? Right now, it think this camp holds
:14:24. > :14:28.about 2000 people, and it seems to be pretty full right now. We are
:14:29. > :14:32.being told to hang tight and wait for further instruction.
:14:33. > :14:36.And at one point, you must have thought all the drama was over, and
:14:37. > :14:40.then it started all over again. Yes, when we got the call to come
:14:41. > :14:44.back to work, we were assured that there was a brake in the weather, a
:14:45. > :14:50.break in the smoke, so it was a good time to come back, but it doesn't
:14:51. > :14:55.take long, once the wind turns around. It doesn't take long to blow
:14:56. > :14:59.the smoking. How safe do you feel there? What are you being told about
:15:00. > :15:05.how long you have to stay? I feel safe now, because you can't
:15:06. > :15:08.see the flames, but it is just a matter of time, with the wind. We're
:15:09. > :15:14.finding out now that one of the camps that was evacuated last night,
:15:15. > :15:18.just down the road from where I was, it is now on fire, so I mean, it is
:15:19. > :15:22.coming. And there must be no sense of
:15:23. > :15:28.normality? You are stuck in a sort of limbo after all this time?
:15:29. > :15:33.Yes, yes. It is very intimidating. You see about it on the news, and it
:15:34. > :15:36.is what we have dealt with for the last two weeks, and it just feels
:15:37. > :15:38.like there is no end in sight. It really doesn't feel like it is
:15:39. > :15:42.getting any better. Did you manage to take any
:15:43. > :15:46.belongings with you, or is it all happening so quickly?
:15:47. > :15:51.I managed to, just because I was on night shifts, so I happen to be in
:15:52. > :15:53.camp ennui had the evacuation, but a lot of friends of mine were working
:15:54. > :15:57.day shifts, and couldn't make it back to camp in time to grab
:15:58. > :16:00.anything, so they have been wearing the same clothes for a couple of
:16:01. > :16:06.days now. I had to give my friend some of my clothing to wear. I had
:16:07. > :16:09.to give him some shampoo and some toothpaste as well.
:16:10. > :16:14.So it is pretty uncomfortable conditions in that sense. And you
:16:15. > :16:18.described what it was like earlier, that day turned into night,
:16:19. > :16:21.completely black? Yes, it was unbelievable. Like
:16:22. > :16:28.something you would see in a movie. It was 3pm, usually, sunshine and
:16:29. > :16:31.birds chirping, you know, but it was almost like it was midnight. It was
:16:32. > :16:37.completely dark. Ash was falling from the sky, smoke so thick it
:16:38. > :16:43.would burn your eyes, and was burning your throat.
:16:44. > :16:46.Poor, poor conditions. Do you have enough information, or do you feel
:16:47. > :16:50.you don't really know when this will come to an end?
:16:51. > :16:57.No, they are kind of making a plan now. It is hard when there are 2000
:16:58. > :17:01.people here to get us all moved, and there are other evacuees at the
:17:02. > :17:05.camps as well. They figure there are about 4000 of us needing to get out
:17:06. > :17:09.of here. Thank you very much. We wish you all
:17:10. > :17:11.the best. Thank you for talking to us at that camp in the north of

:23:31. > :23:33.very straightforward, and they always work,
:23:34. > :23:35.because they have so many stars, they have people's reviews,

:25:10. > :25:13.helps and there may be a sense that these concessions are the start
:25:14. > :25:19.of a process of negotiation. And, this evening, the BBC has now
:25:20. > :25:23.said that, following the uproar, they will accelerate the transfer
:25:24. > :25:45.of content to BBC Good Food. Well, while David 's report was
