:00:55. > :00:58.to World News Today. In the last hour it's been confirmed

:00:59. > :01:01.that the terminally ill baby Charlie Gard has died,

:01:02. > :01:05.a week before his first birthday. It's thought he was moved

:01:06. > :01:09.to a hospice today from Great Ormond Street children's

:01:10. > :01:11.hospital where he was being treated. This is Charlie Gard without

:01:12. > :01:20.breathing or feeding tubes, before his devastating genetic condition

:01:21. > :01:22.emerged, which causes progressive By his side throughout

:01:23. > :01:28.have been his parents, They refused to accept Charlie had

:01:29. > :01:35.suffered catastrophic brain damage and raised funds online for

:01:36. > :01:37.experimental treatment in the United Great Ormond Street Hospital applied

:01:38. > :01:45.to court to end Charlie's life-support, and every

:01:46. > :01:48.judge backed them. At the UK Supreme Court, with

:01:49. > :01:51.Charlie's parents sitting behind, the hospital's barrister

:01:52. > :01:56.said his suffering should end. The reality is that Charlie

:01:57. > :01:59.can't see, he can't hear, he can't move,

:02:00. > :02:06.he can't cry, he can't swallow. Immensely sadly, his condition

:02:07. > :02:09.is one that affords An American doctor offering

:02:10. > :02:14.to treat Charlie with this experimental powder had not

:02:15. > :02:18.seen his full medical records and it took six months before he came

:02:19. > :02:21.to London to Finally, at the High Court,

:02:22. > :02:27.Charlie's parents abandoned their legal fight, saying

:02:28. > :02:32.that time had run out. Our son is an absolute warrior

:02:33. > :02:36.and we could not be prouder of him His body, heart and soul may soon be

:02:37. > :02:45.gone, but his spirit will live on for eternity and he will make

:02:46. > :02:48.a difference to people's A private family tragedy

:02:49. > :02:58.was fought out in public. Doctors and nurses at

:02:59. > :02:59.Great Ormond Street, renowned children's hospitals,

:03:00. > :03:03.received abuse and even death threats, which Charlie's

:03:04. > :03:10.parents condemned. Pro-life groups adopted the cause

:03:11. > :03:15.and Charlie's plight became an international issue

:03:16. > :03:18.when both the Pope and Donald Trump The judge said it was

:03:19. > :03:23.a pitfall of social media that people commented

:03:24. > :03:29.without knowing the facts. Charlie would have been

:03:30. > :03:32.one on August the 4th. His parents said

:03:33. > :03:35.they were sorry they could not save him, but would set up

:03:36. > :03:38.a foundation to help other sick The Pentagon says it believes

:03:39. > :03:48.North Korea has conducted another There are reports that the missile

:03:49. > :03:53.landed in Japanese waters. The Japanese Chief Cabinet Secretary

:03:54. > :03:57.said it flew for about 45 minutes. That's longer than the missile

:03:58. > :04:01.tested in July which Pyongyang claimed was an intercontinental

:04:02. > :04:02.ballistic missile capable Our correspondent,

:04:03. > :04:11.Rupert Wingfield Hayes - who's in Tokyo - says this latest

:04:12. > :04:20.missile test is not a surprise. What do we know about this latest

:04:21. > :04:22.test? We have just heard from the department of defence in Washington,

:04:23. > :04:27.who say their telemetry shows that it flew for about 1000 kilometres.

:04:28. > :04:31.They say they are still working on the exact data to try to work out

:04:32. > :04:34.what range this missile might have been, but they say it was an

:04:35. > :04:37.intercontinental ballistic missile. That is what they called it,

:04:38. > :04:47.although strangely they said it posed no threat to the USA. There

:04:48. > :04:49.some other specialist who disagree with that because North Korea's

:04:50. > :04:52.recent test, this one tonight and the one on July four, clearly are

:04:53. > :04:55.aimed at extending the range of North Korea's missile force well

:04:56. > :05:02.beyond Japan and the Western Pacific. And having a missile

:05:03. > :05:06.capable of reaching the mainland US. The fact that this one a night

:05:07. > :05:10.sleeper 45 minutes may be some indication that this a longer range

:05:11. > :05:15.missile than they have tested before because that is the longest any test

:05:16. > :05:20.flight has taken so far. How concerned are Japan for what is

:05:21. > :05:25.happening right now and what it means for the months and years

:05:26. > :05:31.ahead? Japan is deeply concerned about these tests. Not only because

:05:32. > :05:34.of what it represents in the growing capability of North Korea's missile

:05:35. > :05:40.arsenal, but because these are falling close to Japanese waters and

:05:41. > :05:44.this one tonight in side -- inside Japan's exclusive zone. There will

:05:45. > :05:49.be shipping and fishermen out fishing tonight. We don't get anyone

:05:50. > :05:54.in these tests and so even these tests are a threat to Japanese

:05:55. > :05:55.people and Japanese livelihoods and the Japanese Goodman is deeply

:05:56. > :05:59.concerned. Thank you very much. Even by the standards

:06:00. > :06:00.of his chaotic administration, its been a wild few hours

:06:01. > :06:03.for President Donald Trump. The Senate has rejected yet another

:06:04. > :06:06.attempt to repeal the health care And two of his top staffers appear

:06:07. > :06:13.to be virtually at war. The BBC's Jon Sopel

:06:14. > :06:16.reports from Washington. The history books will

:06:17. > :06:25.record that before 2am this morning, Donald Trump's

:06:26. > :06:27.promise to repeal and replace Obamacare that he said

:06:28. > :06:30.would be so easy, crashed and burned

:06:31. > :06:35.on the floor of the Senate. Outside, opponents who had

:06:36. > :06:38.been waiting celebrated. The coup de grace was delivered

:06:39. > :06:41.by Senator John McCain To gossips and sharp intakes

:06:42. > :06:48.of breath, the person the president had hailed as a hero earlier

:06:49. > :06:51.in the week from returning from treatment to vote,

:06:52. > :06:55.now the villain of the piece. It left the Senate leader ruing

:06:56. > :07:01.a humiliating defeat. This is clearly a disappointing

:07:02. > :07:03.moment, from skyrocketing costs to the plummeting choices,

:07:04. > :07:08.and collapsing markets, our constituents have suffered

:07:09. > :07:10.through an awful lot under But that wasn't the only

:07:11. > :07:17.drama unfolding. Here at the White House,

:07:18. > :07:20.the most extraordinary bare knuckle cage fight has broken out among

:07:21. > :07:23.the three most senior people in the West Wing

:07:24. > :07:26.who aren't the president. The new communications director

:07:27. > :07:29.Anthony Scaramucci talking in abusive and obscene terms

:07:30. > :07:35.about the Chief of staff, and Anthony Scaramucci has apologised

:07:36. > :07:40.for the language used, In his conversation

:07:41. > :07:47.with the New Yorker magazine, Anthony Scaramucci said

:07:48. > :08:06.of the Chief of staff: And earlier in the week,

:08:07. > :08:08.Anthony Scaramucci told the BBC that his style was

:08:09. > :08:11.going to be more direct. One of the things I cannot stand

:08:12. > :08:14.about this town is the Where I grew up, we are front

:08:15. > :08:21.stabbers, we tell you where Donald Trump left Washington

:08:22. > :08:26.a short while ago to fly to Long Island, New York, to look

:08:27. > :08:29.at efforts to curb into gang rivalry Laura Bicker is in

:08:30. > :08:52.Washington for us. Donald Trump is touching down. We

:08:53. > :08:57.will go to his speech as soon as it begins. This has been an incredibly

:08:58. > :09:03.tough week, a tough few days for him again. Well, it started off the week

:09:04. > :09:10.on Monday with Jarrod Krishna, his son-in-law being questioned by those

:09:11. > :09:14.investigating the alleged Russian meddling in the US presidential

:09:15. > :09:18.election. They tried to draw a line under that and then the weekly to

:09:19. > :09:24.get more and more tumultuous love there was those transgender in the

:09:25. > :09:27.military tweets that he put out early in the morning, catching the

:09:28. > :09:31.Pentagon off-guard to the point where, in fact, they are not quite

:09:32. > :09:35.sure what the policy is going forward. And now here we are as he

:09:36. > :09:40.takes the stage, his own White House appears to be at civil war and at

:09:41. > :09:47.loggerheads. We have yet to hear how on earth that debacle is going to be

:09:48. > :09:52.sorted out. Let alone when it comes to the health care vote. One of his

:09:53. > :09:58.key promises, his key pledges that he made from coast to coast. Today

:09:59. > :10:04.he is concentrating on gang violence and disrupting drug cartels. Spent a

:10:05. > :10:08.lot of time right here. I was in Queens, so I'd come here and this

:10:09. > :10:12.was like the luxury location for me and I love it, I love the people

:10:13. > :10:18.here. Even coming from the airport, I sat with Nicky Helly who is here

:10:19. > :10:26.someplace. Our ambassador who was so incredible. She has seen crowds in

:10:27. > :10:32.her life and she said, boy, those are really big crowds. Rows of

:10:33. > :10:35.people... If Donald Trump refers to any of the questions that have come

:10:36. > :10:40.up this week, we will go back to that speech. On the question of

:10:41. > :10:46.health care, which is a key policy pledge, what happens next? Part of

:10:47. > :10:49.the problem is we have now got a Republican party that is bruised and

:10:50. > :10:55.battered and trying to pick up the pieces. How do they move forward?

:10:56. > :10:59.The Speaker of the house, Paul Ryan, said earlier today that he is

:11:00. > :11:04.disappointed, frustrated, but he wants to move forward. John McCain,

:11:05. > :11:09.the one person who cast that decisive vote, a veteran senator, 80

:11:10. > :11:13.years old, came back despite having that diagnosis of brain cancer to

:11:14. > :11:17.cast that decisive vote. He too says he wants to see more working across

:11:18. > :11:20.the aisle. How Democrats and Republicans worked together on the

:11:21. > :11:24.health care bill is something else entirely, because simply working

:11:25. > :11:31.between party lines just doesn't seem to work. How they move forward,

:11:32. > :11:35.we will just have to wait and see in the next few days. Thank you very

:11:36. > :11:39.much indeed for that. We will keep across Donald Trump's speech in case

:11:40. > :11:41.there is any update on health care or his Warringah team in the White

:11:42. > :11:43.House there. Let's move on. Supporters of Pakistan's former

:11:44. > :11:45.Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif say he will use all the legal options

:11:46. > :11:49.available to defend his name. Mr Sharif was forced to resign,

:11:50. > :11:52.after the supreme court disqualified him from office

:11:53. > :11:54.for life over It's the climax of a saga

:11:55. > :12:01.prompted two years ago by the Panama Papers -

:12:02. > :12:03.leaks which linked Mr Sharif's three children with offshore companies

:12:04. > :12:08.that allegedly enabled money laundering or tax evasion

:12:09. > :12:10.during the buying of Our Pakistan correspondent

:12:11. > :12:16.Secunder Kermani reports. For opponents of the Pakistani Prime

:12:17. > :12:18.Minister, today's court decision is a huge and unprecedented victory

:12:19. > :12:22.for accountability in a country where politicians often

:12:23. > :12:27.have a reputation for corruption. Today, Nawar Sharif resigned

:12:28. > :12:30.after the highest court A panel of five judges unanimously

:12:31. > :12:35.decided he had not been honest when explaining his and his family's

:12:36. > :12:39.financial dealings to The Supreme Court has

:12:40. > :12:43.led from the front. And insha'Allah,

:12:44. > :12:46.democracy will strengthen. Democracy will evolve in Pakistan

:12:47. > :12:51.and insha'Allah, we will be able The allegations against Sharif

:12:52. > :12:58.revolve around four luxury The documents from the Panama Paper

:13:12. > :13:15.daughter, widely seen as his political successor,

:13:16. > :13:17.as well as her father, will now face further inquiries

:13:18. > :13:20.by the national anticorruption body. No Prime Minister in

:13:21. > :13:25.Pakistan has ever completed Sharif served twice in the '90s, but

:13:26. > :13:34.was overthrown in a military coup. Some of his supporters have claimed

:13:35. > :13:36.the allegations against him now are an attempt by the country's

:13:37. > :13:43.powerful army to oust him again. His family have always

:13:44. > :13:45.denied any wrongdoing and outside the court some

:13:46. > :13:51.of his ministers remained defiant. TRANSLATION: No matter

:13:52. > :13:56.who becomes the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister in the hearts

:13:57. > :13:58.of the Pakistani people The ruling party will now have

:13:59. > :14:06.to nominate a new leader, but with elections due to take place

:14:07. > :14:09.by the middle of next year, the country is

:14:10. > :14:25.facing real uncertainty. We're going to return to our top

:14:26. > :14:29.story. News has emerged in the last hour that the baby Charlie Gard has

:14:30. > :14:33.died. Of course it was very tragically expected news, but it is

:14:34. > :14:38.incredibly sad. It has been such an awful saga. This was a boy that was

:14:39. > :14:41.born in 11 months ago, apparently are normally healthy boy, but it

:14:42. > :14:46.soon became apparent he had this rare genetic condition that lead to

:14:47. > :14:51.terrible brain disorders and also muscle wastage and doctors in March

:14:52. > :14:54.in London decided that his life was no lover tenable. To ease the

:14:55. > :14:57.suffering they would have the right as doctors did turn off his

:14:58. > :15:01.life-support systems and his parents thought that to the snail. This

:15:02. > :15:06.became a very protracted, public battle between the parents, who said

:15:07. > :15:09.they had the job's best interest at heart and they should be able to

:15:10. > :15:13.take into the USA for what they said was revolutionary treatment, was

:15:14. > :15:16.unproven, never been tested on anybody before. They have the money

:15:17. > :15:23.to do that. But the courts and doctors were acting in their belief

:15:24. > :15:26.in the best interests of the baby, a baby who was clearly not very well.

:15:27. > :15:30.The doctors said it would not have been in his best interest to taken

:15:31. > :15:34.away. It was a very public protracted battle and sadly the boy

:15:35. > :15:38.has died. It was awful for the parents. They have released a short

:15:39. > :15:42.statement. Our beautiful little boy has gone. We are so proud of you,

:15:43. > :15:45.Charlie. That was Connie Yates, Charlie's mother. She has had an

:15:46. > :15:48.awful time. She believe right up to the last midst that the hospital

:15:49. > :15:51.have let them down. She accused yesterday of denying them their last

:15:52. > :15:56.wish. The parents having accepted in the court this week that Charlie

:15:57. > :16:00.could no longer be saved. They wanted to take him home to spent the

:16:01. > :16:05.last few days with him, but doctors again said that would not have been

:16:06. > :16:08.possible because the conditions, the medical equipment simply wasn't

:16:09. > :16:10.there and that Charlie had to be allowed to die in a medical

:16:11. > :16:16.environment. He was taken to a hospice and his life-support system

:16:17. > :16:18.was turned off. Great Ormond is a world-renowned children's expert

:16:19. > :16:23.Centre. It has been very difficult for them. What does this mean for

:16:24. > :16:27.future difficult cases? I am not sure it will change much. Of course

:16:28. > :16:31.the parents have a right under the law in the UK, but still the courts

:16:32. > :16:35.and doctors will act in the child's best interest. At the start of this

:16:36. > :16:37.case, great Ormond contacted specialist from around the world in

:16:38. > :16:40.this condition to see if anything could be done and they clearly

:16:41. > :16:42.decided nothing could be done. Thank you.

:16:43. > :16:45.Let's take a look at some of the other stories making the news.
