interviews on the today programme because it's no way to become prime minister by ducking these very important questions and so far he is not answering them. dumpling what happened in the early hours of friday morning, recording arguments what happened between borisjohnson and carrie simmons. the police recorded to an incident they said everyone was safe , recorded to an incident they said everyone was safe, everyone was well, there was no concerns and there was no cause for any further action. and given that is what the police have said and it was a private incident, ithink police have said and it was a private incident, i think we should just leave it at that. get things right and we can deliver brexit, unite the party. exactly three years since uk voted to leave the eu and brexit is likely to dominate this leadership race. both candidates we re leadership race. both candidates were asked to explain the reproach with the tory party members. washed out some of the new brexit deal but

is willing to leave it that when at the end of october. leaving on october the 31st was, my words were eminently feasible. he has been accused of misrepresenting of what that would mean in practise. his fellow brexiteer is backing jeremy hunt, saying it was wrong to say that tariff arrangements would not change for up to ten years. it is not true. that is the problem. if we have no deal, for example, we are likely to face tariffs in the european union. they will apply full of tariffs to the uk and that will make our exports less competitive because our prices of uk goods. it is potential bad for the economy. the idea that we can continue to pursue the policy. of kicking the can down the road which is what the other candidate in this leadership race is advocating, jeremy hunt has said he would be prepared to delay

beyond the 31st of october. i think that would be a disaster. with four weeks to go and hustings in all parts of the uk, but leadership contenders know the scrutiny will continue. a government minister has beenin continue. a government minister has been in iran calling for urgent de—escalation of current tensions after the us blamed iran for attacks on two oil tankers. reports in american media say the us launched a cyber attack on iranian weapons systems on thursday and dated disabled systems controlling rocket and missile launchers. earlier, i spoke to professor daniel who was in washington and asked what he thought of those reports. that does not surprise me, i was thought that there was a possibility of some sort of effort against iran after the president called off the military

retaliation and conventional military retaliation. i think that seems to me to be much more in the right vein than the attack on iran's missile facilities. although it does not mean that might not happen at some point in the nearfuture. not mean that might not happen at some point in the near futurem does not mean that, that's exactly right but they made it very clear it seems to me that they are begging for iran to come back to the negotiating table. i can understand perfectly well why iran is unwilling to do that, but i think they need to reconsider because the americans have dropped all their preconditions and essentially signalling that the nuclear issue will be the only issue initially of those talks. and that it seems to me is something that iranians should be able to accept and the americans should give them some sanctions relief, i think they

will accept it. but that is an important add—on, at the moment there is no sign of any sanctions relief and surely it would take that for a ride to say we will talk to you. i do not think it is necessary for the us to begin trading or investing in iran. i think if there is some us relief of the europeans, of the chinese, of the iraqis from the sanctions, that would help to bring chinese, iraqis, europeans, back on board with the united states and it would also give iran enough to be able to return to the negotiation table. this administration is blatantly incapable of negotiating anything technical, let's be clear about that. the last administration had a nobel prize—winning physicist at the negotiating table. this one has a

quy negotiating table. this one has a guy who cannot tell a new nuclear plant from a court plant. —— coal plant. i think the only real solution for the americans is extending the existing agreement and if that is the only issue, i think the iranians should be willing to talk about it. you mentioned some of the main players, and countries like china and the european countries as well, they are all still supportive of that original nuclear deal, are they? that remains quite a significant schism between america and its allies. that's right, that's one of the reasons why americans can't move much further forward one of the reasons why americans can't move much furtherforward on the sanctions with the europeans opposing them, the chinese, the turks, all opposing unilateral sanctions which would decay in time

and will be entirely effective and frankly, they weaken american prestige and influence in the world. at some point, i think the americans have to decide that it is more important to get the europeans back on side then to continue the very strict sanctions. but as i say, and i don't think americans are going to start trading or investing in iran. i think it would be enough for the europeans do so. professor daniel and washington. the ruling party has lost control of istanbul after a rerun of the city's mayoral election. beating his rival, the former prime minister by about 9%, a far greater margin than in march is poll which was annoyed by the electoral authorities, it is seen as a major setback for president erdogan, who said whoever winds istanbul, winds turkey. i'll be back

with the evening's first edition of the paper that is just after 1030, stay with us of a round above today's news. coming up on the bbc news channel. thursday the bbc

the gloves are off in the conservative leadership race is jeremy hunt tells borisjohnson to man up and faced the scrutiny that

goes with thejob. the foreign secretary says he wants to know about his policies, not his personal life. it's no way to become prime minister by ducking these very important questions and so far he's not answering them. with just four weeks before a new leader enters downing street, we'll be assessing the contest ahead. also tonight. celebrations in istanbul as a new opposition mayor is elected — a major setback for the turkish president. america's secretary of state heads to the middle east to talk to allies amid extreme tensions with iran. in comes the corner, swept brilliantly in! england have a third. victory against cameroon takes england through to the world cup quarterfinals. and andy murray's doubles win at queen's gives him a triumphant return from injury.

good evening. jeremy hunt has launched a fierce attack on borisjohnson his rival to be prime minister, telling him to "man up" and accusing him of ducking media scrutiny. writing in tomorrow's times newspaper, the foreign secretary said mrjohnson appears to want to "slink" into downing street through the back door. but he says he is not interested in debating mrjohnson‘s personal life. on friday, police were called to the flat he shares with his partner, following reports of a row. his team say he ought to be judged on his policies. here's our chief political correspondent vicki young. if you want to be prime minister, you are going to face some tough questions. borisjohnson is refusing to talk about his private life and a police visit after a row with his girlfriend, but he is under pressure to give more details about his policies

for government, too. in peterhead today, his leadership rivaljeremy hunt said what happens in people's personal lives is a matter for them but mrjohnson should answer questions on everything. my challenge to borisjohnson is simply this, come and do live tv debates with me, come and do interviews with andrew marr, interviews on the today programme. it is no way to become prime minister by ducking these very important questions and so far he's not answering them. in an article into my‘s times, mr hunt goes further, urging mrjohnson to ta ke hunt goes further, urging mrjohnson to take part in a televised debate. —— in tomorrow's times. supporters of boris johnson are downplaying what happened here in the early hours of friday morning, when neighbours heard and recorded an argument between mrjohnson and carrie symonds. the police were called to an incident and what did they say? they said everyone

was safe and well. there was no concerns that the officers had and there was no cause for any further action. given that is what the police have said, and it is clearly a private incident, none of us were there, i think we should leave it at that. get things right and we can deliver brexit, unite the party... it is exactly three years since the uk voted to leave the eu and brexit is likely to dominate this leadership race. both candidates were asked to explain their approach at yesterday's hustings with tory party members. mrjohnson wants a new brexit deal but says he would be willing to leave without one at the end of october. what i said was that leaving on october the 31st was, my words were, "eminently feasible". he's been accused of misrepresenting what that would mean in practice. his fellow brexiteer liam fox, who is backing mr hunt, said it was wrong to say tariff arrangements may not change for up to ten years. it isn't true, that is the problem.

if we have no deal, for example, we are likely to face tariffs from the european union. they have already said twice they will apply full tariffs to the uk which would make our exports less competitive because our prices of uk goods in european shops would go up. bad forjobs? and potentially bad for the economy. but mrjohnson‘s supporters say he has got it right and mr hunt will let people down. the idea we can continue to pursue the policy of kicking the can down the road, which is what the other candidate in this leadership race is advocating... jeremy hunt has said he would be prepared to delay beyond the 31st of october. i think that would be a disaster. with four weeks to go and hustings in all parts of the uk, both leadership contenders know the scrutiny will continue. vicki young joins me now. the scrutiny will continue but it will be in scrutiny will continue but it will beina scrutiny will continue but it will be in a new phase of this contest, do you think? jeremy hunt has been very careful all day in every

interview to say that he thinks boris johnson's interview to say that he thinks borisjohnson‘s personal life is irreleva nt borisjohnson‘s personal life is irrelevant but yes, he's putting the bootin irrelevant but yes, he's putting the boot in when it comes to policy. if you look at the article, he says mr johnson is trying to slink through the back door of downing street without scrutiny, that he is trying to rig the contest by not answering questions. listen to the language mr hunt uses when he says what kind of quality a prime minister needs. he says you need to be a wise prime minister, have a calm head and be steady to get us through a political crisis. he's not attacking boris johnson's character but he is encouraging people to make a comparison between them. when it comes to mrjohnson‘s team, they are absolutely insisting he's not going to talk about his private life and never has and never will. they are banking on the fact conservative party members simply don't care about it and being in the room yesterday, the cheers for mr johnson, it seems like they could be right. what is interesting is that it is mrjohnson‘s private life making the headlines in the moment but in the coming four weeks it could be lack of policy details, what he wants to do if he ever comes

into power, that could end up causing more problems. thank you for joining us. five people have been arrested as part of a fraud investigation following the collapse of patisserie valerie. the company went into administration in january after the discovery of a huge black hole in the firm's accounts. the former church of england bishop peter ball, who was jailed for sexually abusing young boys, has died at the age of 87. he was imprisoned in 2015 for offences committed while he was bishop of lewes in the 19705 and ‘80s. an independent review found the church of england had covered up his crimes for 20 years. two people have been arrested on suspicion of murder after a fire at a flat in long eaton in derbyshire. firefighters rescued a man from the building early yesterday morning. he later died in hospital. police are questioning a 54—year—old woman and a man, who's 51. turkey's president erdogan has suffered a major political setback after his party's candidate failed to win the powerful role of mayor of istanbul. the contest was a rerun of the original ballot declared void

by the authorities in march. let's join mark lowen live in istanbul. opposition party supporters are partying. this was always much more than a local election. it was a pivotal test of support for president erdogan after 16 years in power. he pushed for this election rerun and it has backfired spectacularly. whoever wins istanbul, when steady, president erdogan said. he will rue those words tonight and a crushing loss will certainly hastened talk of the post president erdogan era. they roared, not just they roared, notjust in victory but in celebration, that there turkey still exists. an opposition that has waited 25 years to control istanbul, that long felt incapable of success, savoured its moment. ekrem imamoglu

has brought them the hope they craved with his optimistic message, rebuffing attacks with smiles, and he won by a landslide. translation: i asked god for this result to bring good fortune to our nation and istanbul. he protected 100 years of democracy in our country. thank you, my fellow citizens. this result does not mean a new page. this means a new beginning for istanbul. as votes we re new beginning for istanbul. as votes were counted, his victory was clear against a former prime minister with near total dominance over the media, but in concession, a conciliatory note. translation: but in concession, a conciliatory note. translationzlj but in concession, a conciliatory note. translation: i hope our dear friend will serve istanbul well. we will do our best to help him accomplish his work. receptor ipad a gun has towered over turkey as mayor of istanbul himself, then prime minister and president. —— receptor

ipad again. a key globalfigure in everything from security to syria, he has polarised turkey. after claiming irregularities following the first mayoral election in march, he pushed for a rerun. this fresh loss will prompt talk of the beginning of his end. there he passes, ekrem imamoglu, the new mayor of istanbul and the opposition's new great hope in turkey. he is just opposition's new great hope in turkey. he isjust dealt opposition's new great hope in turkey. he is just dealt the opposition's new great hope in turkey. he isjust dealt the biggest blow to president erdogan in his 25 year political career, and tonight feels like a watershed moment for this country. the party will go on late into the night as the magnitude of this sinks in. turkish democracy, so of this sinks in. turkish democracy, so pummelled over the years, still has life in it, and tonight, it is thundering. mark lowen, bbc news, istanbul. hundreds of thousands of demonstrators in prague have demanded that the prime minister andrej babis step down. the billionaire businessman is facing a criminal investigation into fraud allegations.

he denies any wrongdoing and says the allegations are politically motivated. the head of the ethiopian army has been shot dead by his own bodyguard in the capital, addis ababa. the government said that general seare mekkonen, seen here behind the prime minister, died trying to prevent a coup attempt against the regional administration in the northern amhara region. the us secretary of state mike pompeo is on his way to the middle east for talks with both saudi arabia and the uae and an offer to negotiate with iran. there have been days of extreme tension between washington and tehran, accused by the us of attacking oil tankers, and with reports of a cyber attack on iranian weapons. our washington correspondent chris buckler reports. having backed away from military strikes, america is trying to show it is not afraid of conflict with iran. officials say they launched cyber attacks, which they claim disabled iranian systems controlling rockets and missile launchers,

exactly the kind of hardware that was responsible for shooting down an american drone over the gulf. with tehran showing off the wreckage and president trump threatening iran with obliteration if this ends up in confrontation, the international community is increasingly worried. everybody must keep nerves of steel. it is absolutely essential to avoid any form of escalation. the world cannot afford a major confrontation in the gulf. the british foreign minister andrew murrison has been meeting diplomats in tehran, trying to urge calm and diplomacy. but there seems little appetite for that in the iranian parliament, where they chanted, "death to america". meanwhile, with its build—up of military might in the gulf, the us appears to be doing all it can to demonstrate that it's ready for war.

neither iran nor any other hostile actor should mistake us prudence and discretion for weakness. no one has granted them a hunting license in the middle east. there is a clear divide inside the white house. president trump was the one who called off the retaliatory strike but most of his senior advisers wanted them. that has resulted in a mixed message being sent to tehran. at times, the trump administration appears to be tentatively offering a hand of friendship, even as it shakes its fist. we are prepared to negotiate with no preconditions. they know precisely how to find us and i'm confident that at the very moment they're ready to truly engage with us, we will be able to begin these conversations. the us secretary of state is now on his way to the middle east in an attempt to calm waters in the gulf. with concerns of further attacks

following explosions on tankers and iran threatening to breach the terms of its internationally agreed nuclear deal, the relationships between tehran and washington will be tested, if any exist at all. chris buckler, bbc news, washington. there'll be insights across bbc news tomorrow of attitudes and opinions in ten countries in the middle east and north africa as part of a survey conducted by bbc arabic. here's nawal al maghafi. from here in iraq to algeria, sudan and yemen, our survey spoke to over 25,000 people from across the middle east and north africa. and the result — a fascinating insight into how people feel and think in the region today. england's women are through to the next stage of the football world cup. with all the details and the rest of the sport, let'sjoinjohn watson at the bbc sport centre. good evening. england are into the quarterfinals of the women's world cup after a 3—0 victory over

cameroon in valonciennes. manager phil neville said he was ashamed by the behaviour of the opposition following a string of incidents in the match. katie gornall reports. so far, every step has gone to plan for england, but now the heat turns up a notch, and when it comes to knockout football, there's always one thought lingering in the background. the odds suggested this would be a walkover for england and cameroon tried everything to throw them off course. it all started to unravel when cameron's goalkeeper picked up a backpass and in the melee, england's toniduggan backpass and in the melee, england's toni duggan appeared to be spat on. what england needed now was a cool head in the cauldron. step forward steph houghton. england are ranked 43 places above cameroon and soon ellen white pressed home their advantage. the flag stayed down, ellen white! it was a goal confirmed by var, but still cameroon's players felt hard done by. they seemed reluctant to play on. in the second half, ajara nchout looked to have caught england cold. that is

a good ball back! but var stole the spotlight. now the drama and the anger had reached new heights. england too were rattled but when it mattered, they found a way through, as alex greenwood settled the nerves. the match would have a painful end for england's captain as the cameron player escaped a red for this. cameroon are out but have left their mark. cameroon are an unpredictable side but still, no one could have foreseen a match packed with as much incident and emotion as that. it was a stressful time for england and according to their manager, a poor advert for the women's game. that wasn't football, for me, it was not a world cup last 16 in terms of the behaviour that i want to see from footballers. this is going out worldwide. it was a game that had everything but only one thing counts for england. they are through to the quarterfinals. katie gornall, bbc news. andy murray's lifted the doubles title at queen's in his first

tournament since major hip surgery for a second time. he was playing pain—free alongside feliciano lopez, who also won the singles title. murray said he could return to singles matches in august. david ornstein reports. backin back ina back in a final, only five months after it seemed his career might be over, andy murray's recovery from a hip injury is still in its early stages but so far, so good. for now, the focus is on doubles, and typically, he's already in contention for a trophy. marie's partner had collected one an hour earlier. feliciano lopez won the singles title before returning to court seeking more success. facing rajeev ram and englishmanjoe salisbury, there was no doubt which side most of the crowd were supporting. applause. most, though not all. thankfully for murray and lopez, fatigue was not a

factor, and the first set was theirs. although the second went the way of their opponents, team murray prove their quality in a champions tie—break. the scot capping a remarkable comeback. it was brilliant. my hip felt great, no pain. cheering. yeah, obviously, iwill try pain. cheering. yeah, obviously, i will try to keep progressing from here but you know, i'm just happy being back on the court. with wimbledon moving into sight, murray may now have his eyes on an even bigger prize. david ornstein, bbc news. world champion lewis hamilton underlined his dominance this season with another formula 1 victory, his fourth in a row. it came at the french grand prix where he led from start to finish. team—mate valtteri bottas finished second. mercedes have now won all eight races this season. charles leclerc in the ferrari was third. there's more on the bbc sport website, including details of pakistan's win over south africa in the cricket world cup. south africa have been knocked out
