street—by—street. tonight, the defence secretary sir michael fallon congratulated the iraqis and highlighted the role played by the raf. but as our defence correspondent jonathan beale has seen in mosul, victory has come at a cost, with an estimated 800,000 civilians driven from their homes. with an estimated 800,000 voiceover: 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 the strong smell of decay. that his brother and his family are still alive. their house was hit in an air strike just a few weeks ago. it was being used by islamic state fighters. ali says that he spoke to his brother on this phone while he was trapped somewhere under the rubble. and then, he stopped answering.

under the rubble. all they find here is decaying corpses. it's a similar story everywhere they go. while that was happening, everywhere they go. the iraqi prime minister was en route to mosul, to declare the liberation of the city. he arrived draped with an iraqi flag of the city. and surrounded by troops who spent the last nine months trying to wrestle the city from is control, in the toughest of battles. even this morning there was the sound of gunfire, the children so used to it, they don't even flinch. families are making their way through any way they can to safety. this through any way they can to safety. territory up thl under this territory up there is still under islamic state control, a small parcel of land. as you can see, they are pretty desperate. it's hard to celebrate freedom

from is when you have just been fighting to survive. from is when you have just been these family say they have 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 for much of their short lives. now, after three years, of is for much of their short lives. iraq's prime minister has declared their city liberated. but for these families, it has come at a huge price. studio: well, our middle east editor jeremy bowen is here. what jeremy bowen is here. does this moment mean foi and what does this moment mean for mosul and for iraq? well, it is cause to celebrate, islamic state's grip has been prised off iraq and across the board in syria as well. but this does not mean peace, it does not mean the end of their ideology, either, these jihadists groups are very good at regenerating

themselves. the problem is, iraq and syria and other countries in the region have been incubators for that kind of ideology and some of the forces, poor governance, poverty, shia—sunni hatred, sectarian hatred, inter—muslim hatred, all of that has fed in, and those factors are still there. as for iraq itself, all kinds of risks of renewed civil war. the problem is, the country has been coming apart at the seams, the kurdish, in the north, are having an independence referendum in september. if iraq continues to fracture like that, then it will be accompanied by a great deal of violence. the parents of charlie gard, the ii—month old who has a terminal genetic disorder, handed a petition to great 0rmond street hospital today asking for him to be allowed

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 has happened here is wrong. you know, parents know their children best. people making decisions about him have spent very little time with him. we are there 24 hours a day. if he was suffering and in pain, we could not sit there. legally handing in the petition does not change anything but the supporters and the parents are emboldened by new medical information coming from italy and the united states. great 0rmond street hospital is not issued a statement today, doctors stand by the original ruling. the crux of the matter is, you should have a say over the future of charlie, says the american pastor now supporting the family. he denies turning this into a religious argument. should the courts and government officials be involved in what should be a parent ‘s decision? they are the ones

adequate, permanent housing, because it is going to be really difficult to expect them to get well and engage in therapy and start to try and heal when something as fundamental as permanent housing is still up in the air. nhs england has promised to give gps the backing they need, though there is no offer of new funding. will more money and resources be needed to meet extra demand? we believe yes, more people will come forward for trauma counselling, we want them to. and we are very certain we can meet the need. it is notjust the public; for nhs staff involved in major emergencies, mental challenges are now emerging. staff involved in major emergencies, really, people have been in shock up until now, there has not been time to find out if people really do have any mental health issues because we are still being, trying to process what happened. because we are still being, and remember what happened, because, you know, your mind blanks things out.

they were fabricated here, deep in rural gloucestershire at what is quite possibly the largest art—specific foundry in the world. this is a sand mould, that is another way of casting the work. that is another way it was set up by rungwe kingdon and his wife in the mid—1980s, and now employs nearly 200 craftsmen and women, producing sculptures sometimes with nothing more to go on than a sketched drawing from an artist. on than a sketched drawing the old —fashioned way of an artist making an object, bringing it to a foundry, and there's a service you get it, you make a mould and you cast it into bronze, that's actually probably a smaller part of what we do now. it's much more about artists trying to make an image with a foundry. do you ever get to a situation where you think, "for goodness' sake, i should be signing this work?" no, absolutely not. i should be signing this work?" you need artists, you need their language, you need their image,

you need their ideas, they are the people who literally create our culture, and we are the people who help them make that material reality. the cathedral is the most amazing connection to craftsmanship of another age. amazing connection to to be able to put the craftsmanship and the art of this age, to be compared and react to the art and craft of the medieval age, seems to be a beautiful thing to do. and craft of the medieval age, i see myself perhaps as a composer. and craft of the medieval age, the analogy is that pangolin is the orchestra, by which the work is realised. pangolin is the orchestra, without the orchestra, the music simply stays on the page. chester cathedral was built by craftsmen nearly 1000 years ago. pangolin say their sculptures are made to lastjust as long. these are the artefacts of our age for future generations to ponder. will gompertz, bbc news. for future generations to ponder. studio: time now for the sport. england's cricketers have won the first test against south africa by 211 runs in an emphatic
