:00:08. > :00:09.No compromise on her stance on immigration.

:00:10. > :00:12.Angela Merkel promises to do everything to protect Germany

:00:13. > :00:16.from attackers acting in the name of the Islamic State group,

:00:17. > :00:18.but insists stopping migrants entering the country

:00:19. > :00:30.TRANSLATION: They want to spread hatred and fear between the

:00:31. > :00:36.cultures, and they want to spread hatred between the religions. We

:00:37. > :00:37.stand this I simply against this. -- decisively against this.

:00:38. > :00:40.President Barack Obama delivers a stirring speech at the Democratic

:00:41. > :00:41.convention as Hillary Clinton prepares to address supporters

:00:42. > :00:43.and officially accept the party's nomination.

:00:44. > :00:45.Scientists discover a new type of antibiotic,

:00:46. > :00:47.literally under - or UP - their noses.

:00:48. > :00:50.Also coming up: We meet a Syrian teenager who swam part of the way

:00:51. > :01:09.to Greece and now wants to swim in the Olympics.

:01:10. > :01:11.We start in Germany, where despite a string of recent

:01:12. > :01:14.terror attacks linked to asylum-seekers, German Chancellor

:01:15. > :01:16.Angela Merkel has insisted she won't abandon her policy

:01:17. > :01:22.It follows Germany's promise last year to provide shelter to thousands

:01:23. > :01:26.The country has now taken in more than a million people.

:01:27. > :01:30.The Chancellor has come under increasing pressure since then,

:01:31. > :01:33.after claims of sex attacks in Cologne at New Year,

:01:34. > :01:37.and most recently, the fatal terror attacks linked to asylum-seekers.

:01:38. > :01:40.But Angela Merkel is standing firm on her migrant policy.

:01:41. > :01:49.Well, the BBC's Chris Buckler has been in the Bavarian town

:01:50. > :01:54.TRANSLATION: The terrorists want us to lose the focus on the things that

:01:55. > :02:00.are necessary. They want to undermine our solidarity and our

:02:01. > :02:05.togetherness. They want to damage our way of life, our openness, and

:02:06. > :02:14.yes, our readiness to take in people in distress. Our correspondent has

:02:15. > :02:15.been in the Bavarian town of Landshut, which has seen a

:02:16. > :02:17.significant influx of refugees. Bavaria prides itself

:02:18. > :02:19.on being a welcoming place, but in Germany's largest state,

:02:20. > :02:21.there is increasing unease about Angela Merkel's so-called

:02:22. > :02:23.open-door policy towards those not coming for

:02:24. > :02:26.a holiday, but to make a new life. The two English words

:02:27. > :02:28.within Landshut's name might give There are people who want tighter

:02:29. > :02:34.controls on who enters this land. TRANSLATION: I'm in favour

:02:35. > :02:38.of an integration law that has more controls and gives people

:02:39. > :02:41.opportunities for the future. That must be a requirement,

:02:42. > :02:44.and that's why we as Bavarians differ somewhat from

:02:45. > :02:48.the government in Berlin. Earlier this year, in protest

:02:49. > :02:51.at the pressure on resources here, this region's mayor loaded up a bus

:02:52. > :02:56.of refugees and send them to Chancellor Merkel's official

:02:57. > :03:01.residence in Berlin. While the flow of people has eased,

:03:02. > :03:05.there are still many in this town waiting to be given asylum status,

:03:06. > :03:08.and therefore, still This man asks for his face not to be

:03:09. > :03:15.shown, because he has relatives But the process of approving

:03:16. > :03:31.asylum takes time. It's struggling to cope,

:03:32. > :03:33.like some of the families Our fears, you are

:03:34. > :03:39.in the same place. There's clear frustration,

:03:40. > :03:41.and after recent attacks involving There are a lot of people that have

:03:42. > :03:53.criminal records in their country before they come here,

:03:54. > :03:56.so what do you expect of them? When they come here,

:03:57. > :03:58.they become idle, they possess that There are many who feel

:03:59. > :04:01.there should be more checks, particularly with so many headlines

:04:02. > :04:04.about terror, and today, Chancellor Merkel did propose

:04:05. > :04:06.measures to improve security. But to the frustration of right-wing

:04:07. > :04:10.parties, she said her asylum TRANSLATION: The events of the last

:04:11. > :04:19.week are a wake-up call to people. The warnings our party have

:04:20. > :04:24.given our proven to be true. The warnings our party have given

:04:25. > :04:27.have proven to be true. It's an incredibly small number

:04:28. > :04:29.who threaten this society. The vast majority simply

:04:30. > :04:32.want to be a part of it. But there's a growing distance

:04:33. > :04:38.between Berlin and Bavaria about how to deal with the worries

:04:39. > :04:40.over fear and finances, and that could leave

:04:41. > :04:43.this country less open. It's the final day of

:04:44. > :04:46.the Democratic National Convention and Hillary Clinton's big chance

:04:47. > :04:49.to convince delegates and voters Barack Obama has already

:04:50. > :04:55.given his seal of approval for Hillary Clinton as the best

:04:56. > :04:58.person to replace him He told the convention

:04:59. > :05:02.in Philadelphia that there has never been anyone more qualified

:05:03. > :05:07.to serve as president. Let's head over to Philadelphia now

:05:08. > :05:09.and talk to Carlos Watson who is the CEO of ozy.com,

:05:10. > :05:21.a daily digital magazine. Carlos Watson, welcome. It is going

:05:22. > :05:27.to be a tough act to follow, having Barack Obama make that speech last

:05:28. > :05:31.night? I think indeed. In fact, I think it was President Obama's best

:05:32. > :05:37.speech ever, which is saying a lark, given his skills as an orator. That

:05:38. > :05:43.good? I think it was that good. You should have seen the crowd here. It

:05:44. > :05:46.was quite impressive. He was both able to elevate Secretary Clinton,

:05:47. > :05:50.and also, I think, really painted a picture of Donald Trump but I think

:05:51. > :05:56.could end up being helpful to Clinton as she appeals to

:05:57. > :05:59.independently macro and maybe even disaffected Republicans.

:06:00. > :06:03.What exactly is she going to have to sell to night? What is she going to

:06:04. > :06:07.focus on? What are her selling points?

:06:08. > :06:11.I think she also has a very similar job, in some ways, which again, as

:06:12. > :06:15.many of the speakers have done, she has got to go after Donald Trump

:06:16. > :06:19.head on, and whether she calls him a demagogue or says he has no clue or

:06:20. > :06:23.says he is not very conservative, I think she has got to do that. But I

:06:24. > :06:33.think the other important piece is a vision, or as George HW Bush once

:06:34. > :06:37.put it, "The vision thing". And I think laying out a compelling agenda

:06:38. > :06:40.for what the years of the Clinton presidency, or 2-term presidency,

:06:41. > :06:44.would mean, is going to be really critical, give people something to

:06:45. > :06:48.hold onto. I think we will also get a bit more of her biography, though

:06:49. > :06:52.she may allow their daughter, along with her husband a few nights ago,

:06:53. > :06:55.to do the bulk of that. Interesting. And we saw bringing in the rest of

:06:56. > :06:57.the family at the Republican convention as well. How the

:06:58. > :07:01.effective you think that is only tactic?

:07:02. > :07:08.I think it was certainly helpful and the polls are Donald Trump. I think

:07:09. > :07:17.not only his daughter M, but even the love that his wife Melania made,

:07:18. > :07:20.so I think for Secretary Clinton, it is important that the people who are

:07:21. > :07:24.speaking, maybe the most important family member, someone who is no

:07:25. > :07:27.longer with us, is her mother. I think a mother is so much of the

:07:28. > :07:30.reason she has been involved in politics. It has been a guiding

:07:31. > :07:33.light fire, and yet I don't think that people know enough about a

:07:34. > :07:37.mother or her mother's story. I would not be surprised if Secretary

:07:38. > :07:39.Clinton spend a lot of time on that family member in the course of

:07:40. > :07:43.headline speech. That is interesting. You mentioned a

:07:44. > :07:46.Republican bounce. How much is that worrying the Democratic party, and

:07:47. > :07:53.how much will that feed into the negativity, trying to talk Trump

:07:54. > :07:56.down, how much will they balance that with positivity about what they

:07:57. > :08:00.should vote for in Hillary Clinton? I think there is no doubt, even the

:08:01. > :08:03.Democrats won't say it out loud, they are worried. Many looked at the

:08:04. > :08:07.convention last week in Cleveland and thought, as opposed to getting a

:08:08. > :08:11.bounce, in fact, trump might receive a little bit, given the flock that

:08:12. > :08:15.Melania had, given some of the other drama, including Ted Cruz. So I

:08:16. > :08:18.think they were frankly caught off guard, even though most of them will

:08:19. > :08:26.now say, that is what you would expect. So let's see what Secretary

:08:27. > :08:30.Clinton walked away with from this convention. You will remember back

:08:31. > :08:37.in 9080, one of the best convention bounces we have ever seen when to be

:08:38. > :08:40.Democratic nominee, Michael Dukakis, who exited up 17 points. I don't

:08:41. > :08:44.bite back, but I think it Secretary Clinton in some of the unusual swing

:08:45. > :08:49.states, places like Georgia, where she is within five points right now,

:08:50. > :08:53.North Carolina, where she is closer, and Missouri, where she is better

:08:54. > :08:57.back then we would expect, if she can help results in some of those

:08:58. > :09:01.places, they would be wildly excited.

:09:02. > :09:07.Carlos Watson, thank you very much. We appreciate your time.

:09:08. > :09:11.Might later, thank you. There is a lot more on the Democratic national

:09:12. > :09:14.convention. It is all on our website, and there is the latest in

:09:15. > :09:15.what has been going on, all the speeches and reactions of those

:09:16. > :09:17.speeches. Two of Turkey's highest ranking

:09:18. > :09:20.generals are reported to have resigned, following the coup attempt

:09:21. > :09:23.earlier this month. It comes a day after more than 1,500

:09:24. > :09:27.military personnel were sacked for their alleged roles

:09:28. > :09:31.in the failed uprising. More than 130 media outlets

:09:32. > :09:35.were ordered to be shut down on Wednesday as the Turkish

:09:36. > :09:41.government continues its crackdown. Our correspondent Mark

:09:42. > :09:53.Lowen is in Istanbul. Mark, how far reaching are we seeing

:09:54. > :09:55.this latest crackdown is? It is staggeringly widespread,

:09:56. > :10:01.really, when you look at most every sector of society that is being

:10:02. > :10:05.affected. From media, as you say, 131 media outlets will be closed

:10:06. > :10:09.down, to the military. Almost half the generals and admirals in the

:10:10. > :10:17.country have been discharged. To the police, the judiciary, civil

:10:18. > :10:20.society, NGOs, even Turkish Airlines, 250 cabin crew dismissed.

:10:21. > :10:24.All of these people, tens of thousands now, either detained,

:10:25. > :10:32.dismissed or suspended, suspected of either backing the coup or backing

:10:33. > :10:36.the alleged mastermind, Fetullah Gulen, this cleric who has been

:10:37. > :10:39.living in self-imposed exile in the US since 1999. He denied any

:10:40. > :10:43.complicity or involvement at all in this clue, but it is clearly showing

:10:44. > :10:50.that the government is trying to root out what it calls a virus, and

:10:51. > :10:54.really, the Gulenist implements, the movement of him and his followers in

:10:55. > :10:58.every part of society, is very well known here. It has spread its

:10:59. > :11:01.tentacles throughout Turkish society. The evening says it is a

:11:02. > :11:05.peaceful, interfaith movement, but critics and the government say it is

:11:06. > :11:10.a dangerous sect. A dangerous cult that needs to be rooted out.

:11:11. > :11:14.So many dismissals and detentions that you mentioned. One wonders how

:11:15. > :11:19.much further might president to do and be prepared to go?

:11:20. > :11:25.Bat President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. Reports night that he wants to bring

:11:26. > :11:28.the military and intelligence under his direct control, moving from the

:11:29. > :11:32.Prime Minister to the presidency. That would certainly enhance his

:11:33. > :11:36.control and command on the country, and it has long been his aim to

:11:37. > :11:41.create a sort of executive presidency here, a much more

:11:42. > :11:44.powerful presidency, but that would require constitutional amendments,

:11:45. > :11:47.so he would need to go to Parliament and at the opposition supporters

:11:48. > :11:51.well. The government insists that the operation is only against those

:11:52. > :11:55.who have proven connections to the coup attempt to weeks ago, but the

:11:56. > :11:59.critics say that actually, this is an attempt by the government to

:12:00. > :12:04.round up all opponents, all enemies, and group them together and detain

:12:05. > :12:07.or dismiss them. So the criticism from Western governments continues,

:12:08. > :12:11.but the government here says, look, this is as going after those who

:12:12. > :12:14.tried to murder their way into power, and it is really the

:12:15. > :12:18.repercussions of the most traumatic two weeks in Turkey's modern

:12:19. > :12:21.history. Nearly two weeks in deed. What

:12:22. > :12:25.difference has is made to daily life in Turkey? Howlers does it feel

:12:26. > :12:30.different? Well, on the surface, cities like

:12:31. > :12:32.Istanbul continue as normal. This is a bustling, vibrant, cosmopolitan

:12:33. > :12:35.city where people go around and drink their espressos in the

:12:36. > :12:39.morning, go shopping in the afternoon, and might go to one of

:12:40. > :12:43.the five times that they pray as well. But of course, this is

:12:44. > :12:46.absolutely rooted every element of society here. So many arrests at,

:12:47. > :12:53.detentions and dismissals, and also a fear among those who feel they are

:12:54. > :12:56.targeted, that they could be next. That said, Turks have united against

:12:57. > :13:02.the coup, so even though they are still divided over their president,

:13:03. > :13:07.they largely feel that a president who has his faults, in the eyes of

:13:08. > :13:10.some critics, is better, certainly, than a military takeover of Turkey

:13:11. > :13:12.in 2016. Thank you, Mark. Now a look at some of

:13:13. > :13:14.the day's other news. French investigators have used DNA

:13:15. > :13:17.to formally identify the second of the two young men who killed

:13:18. > :13:19.an elderly priest on Tuesday. Police had received a tip-off

:13:20. > :13:22.from a foreign agency warning that 19-year-old Abdelmalik Petitjean

:13:23. > :13:25.was preparing an attack. At least 75 people have been killed

:13:26. > :13:30.and several others are still missing after heavy monsoon rains triggered

:13:31. > :13:33.floods and landslides in Nepal. Thousands of people have been

:13:34. > :13:36.displaced with many houses swept There has also been severe

:13:37. > :13:41.flooding in parts of India, Health officials in Florida

:13:42. > :13:48.are investigating four new cases of Zika infection that do not appear

:13:49. > :13:50.to be linked to travel This has raised the possibility

:13:51. > :13:55.that the virus is being spread The virus can cause severe

:13:56. > :14:00.brain defects in newborns. The UK's Lloyds Banking Group has

:14:20. > :14:25.announced it's going to cut 3,000 jobs and shut 200 branches

:14:26. > :14:27.by the end of 2017. The bank has justified the move,

:14:28. > :14:31.saying it now expects interest rates Lloyds, which is part state-owned,

:14:32. > :14:38.also warned that uncertainty after the UK's vote to leave

:14:39. > :14:55.the European Union could affect In Syria, one of the country's most

:14:56. > :14:58.powerful rebel groups, the al-Nusra Front, has announced it is breaking

:14:59. > :15:01.its linked with Al-Qaeda and changing its name. In a recorded

:15:02. > :15:08.message, the group's leader said it would now be known as "The front for

:15:09. > :15:11.the conquest of Syria". It is understood the group hopes to form

:15:12. > :15:16.closer alliances with other Islamist organisations fighting within Syria.

:15:17. > :15:19.Analysts say they decided to rebrand themselves after Russia and the US

:15:20. > :15:21.decided to step up their military efforts against them.

:15:22. > :15:23.Scientists have discovered a new type of antibiotic,

:15:24. > :15:26.It's found INSIDE the human nose, potentially useful

:15:27. > :15:28.against harmful bacteria - including the superbug MRSA.

:15:29. > :15:32.New antibiotics are urgently needed to battle drug resistant infections,

:15:33. > :15:35.and scientists say the human body could be an untapped

:15:36. > :15:40.Our Science Editor David Shukman has the story.

:15:41. > :15:42.Over billions of years, bacteria have kept evolving,

:15:43. > :15:45.and recently, some have adapted to resist antibiotics.

:15:46. > :15:51.They have become virtually unstoppable, and the infection

:15:52. > :16:00.The life-saving drug that has revolutionised medical science.

:16:01. > :16:02.Penicillin was the first antibiotic, an invention that save millions

:16:03. > :16:07.of lives, but since then, researchers struggled

:16:08. > :16:09.to come up with new weapons against the most dangerous bacteria.

:16:10. > :16:14.It is very significant, because when we have been looking

:16:15. > :16:17.for antibiotics in the past, we have either been trained to make

:16:18. > :16:21.these in the laboratory using chemistry, all we've gone out

:16:22. > :16:24.these in the laboratory using chemistry, or we've gone out

:16:25. > :16:26.into the environment, particularly to look

:16:27. > :16:31.So this is really the first report, or one of the early reports,

:16:32. > :16:33.of finding antibiotics actually in our bodies.

:16:34. > :16:43.Superbugs that can be defeated by antibiotics

:16:44. > :16:45.are a growing threat, so this discovery could in future

:16:46. > :16:48.It starts, rather bizarrely, inside the nose.

:16:49. > :16:51.Now, this isn't a pleasant thought, but lots of different bacteria exist

:16:52. > :16:55.One of them can cause MRSA, but it turns out another kind

:16:56. > :16:59.That's the key finding from the scientists in Germany.

:17:00. > :17:02.They also found that one gene in that microbe produces a substance

:17:03. > :17:05.that they have called lugdunin, and when they gave that in mice,

:17:06. > :17:09.they swore that it actually helps to resist infections.

:17:10. > :17:11.So this really does create what could become

:17:12. > :17:18.Developing new drugs is never a rapid process.

:17:19. > :17:21.It may be at least a decade before this discovery

:17:22. > :17:22.is actually turned into a real medicine.

:17:23. > :17:26.Whee! Well done!

:17:27. > :17:28.But for Emily Morris, top can't come soon enough.

:17:29. > :17:31.She's well now, but keeps getting serious infections that

:17:32. > :17:34.put her in hospital, and options are running out.

:17:35. > :17:37.There will be a time, and I am expecting the time

:17:38. > :17:41.when they say that they can't treat this one, and it's what happens

:17:42. > :17:45.then, really, so that's why me and my family are really worried.

:17:46. > :17:49.But yeah, hopefully, the new technologies

:17:50. > :17:57.and things like that will look at more positive things.

:17:58. > :18:00.The real surprise is where this new antibiotic has been found.

:18:01. > :18:02.Until now, no one thought the human nose would be harbouring

:18:03. > :18:04.useful bacteria that could defeat the dangerous ones.

:18:05. > :18:07.But given the emerging threat of superbugs,

:18:08. > :18:14.all that matters is that we find something that does beat them.

:18:15. > :18:17.A year ago, the Dominican Republic passed a controversial law over

:18:18. > :18:20.the deportation of undocumented Haitians and their families.

:18:21. > :18:24.More than 100,000 people have either been forcibly removed or returned

:18:25. > :18:28.voluntarily from the country, including many who were born

:18:29. > :18:33.in the DR itself, and have spent months living in refugee camps along

:18:34. > :18:38.the border in harrowing conditions. Will Grant visited one of the camps.

:18:39. > :18:44.Weekly mass at Park Kado is a simple affair.

:18:45. > :18:49.A handful of migrants make of the congregation, celebrating

:18:50. > :18:51.A handful of migrants make up the congregation, celebrating
