good evening, welcome to bbc news. the iraqi prime minister haider al—abadi has declared that the city of mosul has been liberated from islamic state. the prime minister has travelled to mosul, where he's been meeting fighters ahead of a formal victory speech later. earlier, iraqi forces were fighting to capture the last small area of mosul where islamic state militants were holding out. jen smith reports. celebrations on the streets of mosul, a city once a stronghold of the so—called islamic state. the battle to retake the city from is started in october last year but today the iraqi pm visited the city to say it has been

liberated, congratulating the army and the iraqi people. iraqi forces have been battling the remaining pockets ofjihadists holding out in a tiny area near the old city. sporadic bursts of gunfire could still be heard, with plumes of smoke rising into the sky. the long battle for control has come at a cost. the extremists have occupied the city for three years. hunger, thirst, fear and aerial bombardment. we lived in a cellar. look at this, our house was destroyed on top of us. thousands of civilians have been killed, a million have fled. much of the city has been destroyed during the fierce battle. charities have warned of the impact the war has had on those who remained, especially on the children. but the fall of mosul does not mean the end of is in the country. it still has territory areas elsewhere such as three towns

in the western province of anbar server problem still remains. a short while ago, hanan razek from bbc arabic told me how the liberation of mosul would be perceived across the region. mosul used to be the second—largest city in iraq. it was the biggest city they could capture in the country. now, as they are defeated in this city, they will have to retreat to some rural, smaller areas and towns, so it means that the victory against islamic state is very eminent in the whole of the region, notjust in iraq. i suppose it is hard to think of many advantages with them being in control in mosul, but at least it meant there was one place you could look to clear them out from. presumably, the nature of their militancy is once they are split up they kind of vanish into the civilian population, nobody would know who is or who isn't a fighter. absolutely.

this puts a big challenge for the government now. mosul was a very densely populated city, almost 900,000 people fled the fighting. we know that around 600,000 of those fled from the western part of the city, where the fighting was very intense and it was very difficult because it has narrow streets, so it was street by street and house by house kind of fight. many people fled. it will put an extra layer of challenge for the government to know who is who and i think there will be some vetting processes as they rebuild the city and after the fighters leave. rebuilding the city will be a huge task in itself, never mind the next stage of political rebuilding and trying to get people to think again as iraqis and share the country, rather than be at loggerheads

with one another. absolutely. now the city is mostly in rubble. there are no buildings that have escaped the fighting and the shelling, the destruction. now there will be a long process of rebuilding the city, which we understand might require up to $1 billion to rebuild. also, there is the political challenge because iraq as a country faces a lot of sectarian challenges and rebuilding the city and having a political process inside the city, that will be a big question and quite a long process, as well. and for prime minister al—abadi himself, how important is the liberation of mosul? it is a big victory for him politically, it enhances his position in the government, it makes people regain trust in the iraqi government.

i think he will use that victory to go forward with his policies in the country. a ceasefire backed by the united states and russia is being observed in south—western syria. early reports from the area say the truce appears to have taken hold, with local monitors saying there had been no air strikes or clashes. the americans, the russians and thejordanians were all involved in brokering the agreement between the syrian government and its rebel opponents. the parents of charlie gard have delivered a petition to great ormond street hospital in london, calling on doctors to allow their terminally ill baby to travel to the us for experimental treatment. the petition has been signed by more than 350,000 people. the ii—month old boy's case is due to return to the high court tomorrow. a short while ago our correspondent

spoke to his parents. well, i'm in a square right down the road from great ormond street hospital, and it's a square where charlie's supporters have been gathering all day today, people who signed that petition that you've mentioned. charlie's parents, chris and connie, they thought they'd run out of legal options. tomorrow there will be a fresh hearing at the high court about whether their young ii—month—old son can get treatment abroad in america. a lot hangs on that hearing. joining me now is chris and connie, charlie's parents. thanks so much for agreeing to speak to bbc news. so, you'vejust handed in a petition to great ormond street hospital. can you tell us what you hope that would achieve? well, i think itjust shows the amount of support we got behind us. i believe it's 370,000 signatures. you know, we've got support from around the world that believe in charlie and believe he deserves this chance. you thought your son's a life—support machine would be turned off. how worried are you about

tomorrow's hearing? tomorrow is the first hearing, and there'll be another one later in the week. i think that will be the scary one, or the day we get the result. we've got to stay hopeful, hope that the judge listens to the seven experts we've got now that are saying that this has a chance of working for charlie. they all agree that he should have this opportunity. we agree he should have this opportunity. all our supporters do, as well. we just hope we get this chance. did you think that your battle had come to an end? explain what was going through your head at that time. yeah, we did. it was very close. very close. but, you know, he's still fighting up there, so we are still fighting. we said months and months ago, we'll never give up on him. we believe he deserves this chance, and he does deserve this chance. so, we'll keep going. is this fight taking you away from being with charlie? no, we spend all our time with charlie, literally 24 hours a day. there's someone up there with him now, while we are doing this. we'll go straight back to him afterwards.

we want to thank everybody who is supporting us. the world's most powerful men, as well, tweeting about our little boy. we've raised 1.3 million, over 1.3 million now, for his treatment. there's a lot of people that agree with us. parents know their children best. it's not just about what we think, it's also about what other doctors think as well. we're not slating great ormond street. we've seen amazing things happen in there. them children are on treatment, and our son is not on treatment. that's all we want. we want him to have a chance. i think he deserves it. doctors had said that treatment may not make a difference to charlie, so how relieved are you that great ormond street hospital put in this request at the high court for another hearing? we are relieved it's going to be looked at. theresa may made a statement that if any new evidence comes to light, she hopes it will be looked at. charlie's best interests would be re—evaluated, basically. not word for word, sorry. i hope that they do take into consideration that there

are now seven doctoi's. there are 18 children currently on this medication. they are all getting stronger, they are all getting better. it's a miracle, what happens. there was one girl on a 24—hour ventilator like charlie, a year later she is riding a bike. it's oral medicine, with no major side—effects. it's not even an operation or anything. yeah, there's nothing to lose. president trump has come out in support of you and there have been people from america here today, including a reverend. tell me what it means to you to have that support from america, from lots of parts of the world? it's amazing, absolutely amazing. there's a lot of people that agree that what we're doing is right. this could happen to anyone. we are just two everyday people. we are not strong people, but what is strong is the love for our little boy. you know, he's kept us going through all this. if he was lying there

in pain and suffering, we wouldn't be standing here now. we are with him 2a hours a day. people say i couldn't sit there and watch my child suffer, nor could we. have parents got in touch with you, going through similar things? we spoke to the kings, ashya king, previously. they ended up being right, they wanted to take their child to another country for treatment. that treatment is now coming the nhs, i believe it is this year. so, the same thing could happen to charlie. he could get the treatment, it could work and then they might bring it here. how are you preparing for the hearing tomorrow? i don't think you can prepare, really. the last months it's been an absolute roller—coaster. i just want to say again, we are not slating great ormond street as a terrible hospital, it's a fantastic hospital. there are specialists in many, many areas, the nurses that looked after charlie for the past nine months are truly amazing human beings.

they are so caring and they have looked after him fantastically. what we are asking to do is take our son from great ormond street to another hospital which has specialists in charlie's disease. we've been blocked from doing that. so we hope, finally, after this long fight, we get to do that and charlie gets the chance he deserves. thank you so much forjoining us, chris and connie. charlie gard's parents there, speaking about their hopes to take charlie to america for treatment. thousands of people are attending a rally in the turkish city of istanbul to protest against the government of president erdogan. the event is being held to mark the end of a 280—mile march from ankara organised by the opposition to highlight the mass arrests and sackings since last year's failed coup in the country. a short while ago our correspondent selin giritjoined us from istanbul and said while the protest was widely covered by the turkish media, it's not known how much detail they could report. at this rally, there are hundreds of reporters.

this space is packed. we could hardly find a space for us to make this live report. now the speech is over, there is more space. but it was packed. whether the turkish media will report everything, that's another question. we were walking around and asking people questions about why there were here, why they were attending this rally and what they thought of the march. they were saying, is this going to be on air? why are you asking? 0ur voices are not heard in the turkish media. then we would say we were coming from the bbc and they said, ok, i'll speak to you. that is the main mood, the opposition feel they are not heard in turkey. they feel the media are under

pressure, and they do not get fair coverage. that's what they feel about it. the main opposition leader was on stage, speaking to hundreds of thousands of supporters. he had walked for 25 days, every step of the way, a36 kilometres, and he's a 69—year—old man. he was here. in his speech he talked about why he held this march and what he feels the way forward should be. he said this country should be a place of democracy and justice. he said thatjournalists should be set free and the state of emergency should be lifted. but with this march and rally, there are hundreds of thousands of people from the opposition.

apologies for the poor sound quality, she was struggling against some fairly loud noise from the protests. the us secretary of state is in ukraine for a brief visit. rex tillerson is the first senior member of the trump administration to visit the country. speaking alongside ukrainian president petro poroshenko, mr tillerson said russia must take the first steps to de—escalate the conflict in the east of the country. i've been very clear in my discussions with russian leadership on more than one occasion, that it is necessary for russia to take the first steps to de—escalate the situation in the east part of ukraine, in particular by respecting the ceasefire by pulling back the heavy weapons and allowing the 0sce observers to carry out their responsibilities. this is necessary for us to make any movement in particular. rex tillerson, talking in ukraine.

let's look at the headlines. the iraqi prime minister says the city of mosul has been liberated from the islamic state group. the parents of terminally—ill infant charlie gard deliver a petition to great ormond street hospital — calling on them to let him go to the us for experimental treatment. thousands of people gather in istanbul in turkey to protest against the government of president erdogan. the event is being held to mark the end of a 280—mile march from ankara, and has been organised by the opposition to highlight mass arrests and sackings since last year's failed coup in the country. three people have been killed and nine injured after a five car collision in cornwall. the incident happened on the a38 near landrake just

after 11 this morning. a woman and a child from one car sustained fatal injuries , as well as a male pedestrian. seven people have been taken to hospital for treatment. the road remains closed in both directions while officers examine what happened. the shadow education secretary, angela rayner, has made clear that jeremy corbyn‘s suggestion that labour would look at ways of writing off student debts is only "an ambition". during the election campaign, the labour leader said the party wanted to reduce the debts owed by those who had paid £9000 a year in fees, as our political correspondent jonathan blake explains. £9,000 is what you can pay as an undergraduate. it was a key part of a labour's campaign to promise to scrap that. we heard jeremy corbyn allude to help people that are paying off their student debt. he didn't go as far as saying he would wipe it out altogether. this morning, labour's education secretary was asked about this on the andrew marshall. she made clear that, although it is not quite a policy yet, it is their aim and their ambition to wipe out that debt

for students in england. it's a big abacus that i'm working on with that. it is a huge amount. it's 100 billion which they estimate currently. 100 billion! it's a huge amount of money. we've got to deal with this debt crisis that we are foisting on our young people. it's not acceptable. they are leaving university with £57,000 worth of debt. it is unsustainable and we've got to start tackling that. aren't you simply spraying around huge, huge spending promises too recklessly? i mean, another £100 billion ride on tuition fees right at the last moment. that's some sofa you have to find! well, like you said, jeremy said that was an ambition — something he would like to do. it is something that we will not now announce that we're doing unless we can afford to do that. the figure of £100 billion, to put it into context, it is more than double the defence budget, more than the government spends on education in total in england. we are talking about an absolutely vast sum of money. it's not possible to suddenly find that money to wipe out student

debt. that is why i think we are seeing labour happy to say this is their ambition, but not quite yet a promise. the tories have come back and suggested that labour is making and suggested that labour is making a shambolic promise here and the only way to pay for it would mean higher taxes. sir vince cable — who is likely to become the next leader of the liberal democrats — says he is "beginning to think brexit may never happen". he told the bbc‘s andrew marr show that the problems were too enormous, and the divisions between the two major parties too great. i'm beginning to think that brexit may never happen. really? i think the problems are so enormous, the divisions within the two major parties are so enormous, i can see a scenario in which this doesn't happen. certainly, our policy of having a second referendum, which didn't really cut through in the general election, is designed to give a way out, when it becomes clear that the brexit is potentially disastrous. the church of england's ruling body

has voted overwhelming in favour of welcoming transgender people. the general synod backed a motion to look into special services for transgender people to mark their transition. 0ur correspondent andy moore has been following this for us. the church has had enough problems dealing with issues like gay marriage, the rights of people who are divorced in previous years, transgender is are divorced in previous years, tra nsgender is another are divorced in previous years, transgender is another new subject to grapple with. how did the debate go? the motion was i parts. the first was to welcome and a firm transgender people in the church. in a sense, there was no debate about that. it was agreed by pretty much everybody. the second part is whether there should be a special service to welcome them into the church. some people said, we've already had similar services, a service of affirmation to welcome

them, we don't need some thing different. 0thers them, we don't need some thing different. others said it would send a powerful message that the church embraces transgender people. we heard some impassioned debate. we heard some impassioned debate. we heard from doctor rowan williams, who read out an e—mailfrom a student. she had just transitioned from a woman to a man. it would mean a lot to see the leadership of my church support as gender people. when i go into a church, i feel welcome as a fellow anglican, but there is always that paranoia. if they knew who i was, would they still welcome me? if you vote for this, it would be a way of saying that the church of england officially accepts people like me. thanks that our identity is valid and will not try to invalidate us. please do it. it shows that the church likes transgender people and is inclusive, and it stops

transgender people from shying away from faith out of fear they will not be accepted for who they really are. a moving statement. it is that one of the problems? some in the church feel that emotion is getting in the way of what they would say is a kind of liturgical basis for any decision the church makes? there was certainly an amendment tabled that it should be considered, the theological arguments, etc. some it should be considered, the theologicalarguments, etc. some say it would be kicking it into the long grass. there was a short contribution from the archbishop of york, doctorjohn sentamu. he said, let's just do this. he said the house of bishops can go away and think about the complicated theological questions, but this would send a powerful signal, let's get on and do it. the vast majority of the people at the synod agreed with him. the people -- the thing people need to grasp is that the synod has an official status, it is

not just a meeting synod has an official status, it is notjust a meeting and an event, it is effectively the church parliament? yes, this is effectively the house of parliament making laws. this will happen, the house of bishops will have to go away and think about it and perhaps come up with a new form of words. it certainly does send a very powerful signal to transgender people. that was the intention of the vote. thank you very much. the newjustice secretary has pledged to tackle the problems of drugs and violence in prison after new figures revealed more than 200 kilos of drugs and 13,000 mobile phones were found in jails in england and wales last year. david liddington said the government was increasing the number of prison officers following cuts under the last, coalition government. here's our home affairs correspondent dominic casciani. london's pentonville prison late last year. orders from inmates for drugs and mobile phones being delivered by gangs on the outside. packages thrown or catapulted over walls and security netting. prisoners use makeshift hooks to recover them. it is big business. new figures from the ministry

ofjustice show the industrial scale of what's happening. 225 kilograms of drugs seized last year, 13,000 mobile phones, 7000 extra sim cards. prison inspectors have repeatedly criticised jails for failing to stop the smuggling, which adds to violence inside. what i am determined to do is try to bring about improvements, to build on what my predecessor liz truss did in getting extra prison officers and putting in place effective measures to detect more accurately the problem we have with drugs, the new challenge we have with drones and mobile phones in prison, so they are more secure places. each jail in england and wales now has hand—held mobile phone detectors, and there are 300 more sniffer dogs looking for drugs. ministers have also pledged 2500 extra prison officers by the end of next year. critics say that is still fewer staff than in 2010 and the smuggling will continue to have a huge impact.

the numbers are pretty eye watering, a huge number of fines for both drugs and mobile phones, that is a good thing because the trade in prisons is very dangerous, it causes bullying, violence and self harm inside the prison, and outside the prison families have money extorted from them to pay for all these drugs and phones. this is one of the biggest challenges, stopping gangs from using drones under the cover of night. walls cannot stop the airborne contraband so the police and prison governors are trying to identify the gangs behind them. so far 11 men have beenjailed for a total of a0 years, but most experts say many more are out there determined to do the same, because there is big money still to be made. dominic casciani, bbc news. former prisoner leroy skeete has been speaking about his experiences inside prison, and says that drug use is rife. there's very little that excites people in prison. you go to the gym, and do different other things.

a lot of the time, if people are stuck in a cell for 2h hours a day, they're going to want escapism. people in society go to the pub to escape. you've got drug addicts in society. to suggest it's not going to happen in prison is ridiculous. and it will happen more because people are under more pressures in prison than they are outside. since the sentences have increased, drug use hasjust been ever more prevalent. you got a look at it, someone goes into prison to serve a sentence, yeah? all of a sudden, they are hit with 15 years, or 20 years. that person might never have took drugs before. but they go in the cells, somebody‘s got something and they go, you know what? i'll have a go on that. and it's a vicious circle. more than 180 wildfires are burning in the western canadian province of british columbia. most of the fires started after lightning strikes in dry electrical storms. the authorities have declared a state of emergency. georgina smythe reports. columns of smoke black out the sky as wildfires rage

across western canada. about 2000 firefighters are on the ground attending over 180 fires believed to have been started by lightning strikes. local media says 7000 people have been forced to abandon their homes and animals for evacuation centres. it was very emotional driving away, and seeing the flames and the smoke, and the whole village just surrounded by fires. there are lots of people who have no connection to it at all, but they're here and we are trying to support everybody. we ask everyone to be patient, it takes a long time to register people and we are trying to help as best we can. it is the worst wildfire emergency the country has seen in 11; years, and there are fears the raging fires could join together. pretty close. they were hitting the town,

i could see that from the house, which was definitely a sign we had stayed too long. about 300, 400 metres away. the fire we were able to watch from where we were. i think i still smell like smoke. it was getting close. air tankers are dropping water in an attempt to contain the blaze but hot, dry, and windy conditions are expected to continue for several days, hampering the efforts of firefighters. in california, a record breaking heat wave has left fires raging across the state. thousands of firefighters are attempting to contain more than 20 fires. rainfall during the winter and spring spurred the growth of dense vegetation, but that has now dried out and become a tinder box in the heat. researchers in leeds say that potentially harmful chemicals , used to waterproof raincoats, rucksacks and outdoor gear, are unnecessary and a source of environmental pollution. fluorochemicals are one of the most common treatments used to waterproof items. scientists say new coatings being developed are more

environmentally friendly. 0ur science reporter, victoria gill, has more. the great british summer. but with british weather, the chances are it won't be long before you're reaching for your raincoat — an unlikely source of pollution. one of the most common treatments used to make ourjackets waterproof, fluorochemicals, can pollute the environment. the problem with fluorochemicals is that they're very persistent. they stick around for a really long time, they don't break down and could last for hundreds of years. that's why these scientists are testing new, more environmentally—friendly waterproof coatings using indoor rain. this is the rain room here at leeds university, and apparently it's set to a manchester drizzle. this is the mannequin wearing a raincoat to be tested, so if we just switch on the rain... yeah, that is a pretty accurate artificial manchester drizzle, so i'm just going to leave.

the team used industry—standard tests to see how waterproof fabric stood up to everything from drizzle to a simulated downpour. new repellent coatings that are not based on fluorochemicals are just as good as fluorochemical water repellents. the fluorochemicals are unnecessary. new non—fluorochemical coatings are still being developed, but the researchers now hope the industry will start to roll them out to protect us from the elements without damaging the environment. the lake district has been designated as a world heritage site. it was the third time the national park had submitted a bid to unesco, which was meeting in krakow. the decision means that the lake district becomes the uk's 31st such site. the liberal democrat mp tim farron, whose constituency is in south cumbria, said it was fantastic,

well deserved and a formal recognition of the outstanding natural beauty of the area. now we all enjoy taking a selfie or two, but here are a few pictures of something not often seen. these images of the rare siberian tiger have been released by the land of the leopard national park in siberia. they have been filmed by an automatic camera that was set up by rangers in the park to monitor the tigers. the park says it offers a rare glimpse into the tiger‘s family life. contrasting weather fortunes take us through sunday evening. sunny spells for much of england and wells about some cloud has built. for scotland and northern ireland more cloud here and northern ireland more cloud here and outbreaks of rain. watch out

later this evening for some heavy and possibly thundery showers around parts of east anglia. by the end overnight some of this rain in scotla nd overnight some of this rain in scotland reading into parts of north—west england and north wales. 0ne —— warm night over south england. monday will be scattered showers. especially across parts of east anglia into the south—east of england. some in pounds downpours. the chance of catching a few showers at wimbledon as well. not quite as warm as it has been in south east england. elsewhere temperatures high teens. by tuesday shower was around and those around southern parts of the uk. it will feel cooler. after a nine month battle so called islamic state is driven out of its last stronghold in iraq. celebrations in mosul as the city is officially declared to be in the hands of iraqi government forces. the victory has come at a heavy cost

to the children and families who have lived through the fighting. the parents of terminally ill charlie gard take a petition signed by tens of thousands of supporters to the hospital treating him. there's just a lot of people who think what is happening here is wrong. you know parents know their children best. drugs, drones and mobile phones — new figures reveal the havoc they're causing in our prisons. and the lake district is given world heritage status by the united nations. and moeen ali takes six wickets as england beat south africa in their first test of the summer. good evening.

the iraqi government has announced it's forces have finally taken full control of mosul, the city held by so—called islamic state extremists for the last three years. this afternoon the iraqi prime minister travelled to mosul to declare it free of i—s after a nine month battle. iraqi troops were backed by american and coalition air strikes, advancing street by street in the final stages over the last few weeks. 0ur defence correspondent jonathan beale has this report from mosul — you may find some of the content distressing. what was once a beautiful old city is now mostly rubble. every building deeply scarred or destroyed by months of war. we joined the search and rescue teams looking for survivors. but more often, they are just recovering bodies. with the heat, there is also the strong smell

of decay. ali is hoping against hope that his brother and his family are still alive. their house was hit in an airstrikejusta still alive. their house was hit in an air strikejust a few still alive. their house was hit in an air strike just a few weeks ago. it was being used by an islamic state fighters. he says he spoke to his brother on this phone for he was trapped somewhere under the rubble. and then he stopped answering. all they find here is decaying corpses. it's a similar story everywhere they go. while that was happening, the iraqi prime minister was on route to morsel to declare the liberation of the city. he arrived draped in an iraqi flag and surrounded by troops who spent the last nine months trying to wrestle the city from is control. even this morning there was the sound of gunfire. the children so the sound of gunfire. the children so used to it they don't even flinch.

this territory is still under is control. just a small parcel of land and families are making their way through any way they can to safety. as you can see, they are really desperate. it is hard to celebrate freedom from is when you've just been fighting to survive. these families said they had little food or water. they have left behind loved ones under rubble. many will carry the scars of this battle for the rest of their lives. these children have been prisoners of is from much of their short lives. now, after three years, iraq's prime minister has declared their city liberated. but for the summaries, it has come at price. the parents of charlie gard — the 11—month old who has a fatal genetic disorder — handed a petition to great ormond street hospital today asking for him to be allowed to travel to the united states for experimental drug treatment.

more than a quarter of a million people signed the petition — the high court will consider the case again tomorrow after new evidence was put forward. wyre davies reports. charlie's parents say they will accept help a report from wherever it comes. guide and lead them and we continue to pray for their precious, beautiful son who is captured the imagination of the world. ii—month—old charlie is severely disabled and brain damage. his future has been the subject of a prolonged legal battle. doctors at great ormond street hospital say no treatment will improve the quality of us live and they should be allowed to switch off his life—support systems, a view supported by a high court ruling. today, his parents delivered a petition signed by 350,000 people, to the hospital after they say new

medical information suggests their son might be able to benefit from experimental treatment overseas. there is just a experimental treatment overseas. there isjust a lot experimental treatment overseas. there is just a lot of people who think what is happening here is wrong. you know, parents know their children best. the people making decisions about spent very, very little time with charlie. we are there 24 hours a day and if he was suffering or in pain which are not there. legally handing in this petition today changes nothing. but his pa rents today changes nothing. but his parents and their supporters are clearly emboldened by the new medical information coming from italy and united states. great 0rmond italy and united states. great ormond street hospital has not issued a statement today but doctors here still stand by the original legal ruling. the crux of the matter is who should have a say charlie's future? says the american pastor now supporting the family. he denies turning this into a religious issue. should religion be getting involved in this? i would turn it around and say should the courts and government officials be involved in what should
