encouraged others to speak. at least 130 people have died and 60,000 have been displaced since ethnic clashes started in may. 0ur correspondent divya arya reports from manipur. chiin sianching looks at police reports filed following her assault. when two kuki women were being paraded naked by meitei men in a village in manipur in a now notorious viral video, chiin and her friend were facing another mob outside their hostel in the state capital, imphal. she says they were shouting that they wanted revenge for attacks on their women. then they beat us, they beat us. we were going to die, i was thinking like that. i was scared and i was crying and i was praying to god. i can't do anything.

i can't run away. there were a lot of people. chiin and herfriend were beaten unconscious. the mob ran away thinking they were dead. but some women faced an even worse fate, like the daughter of the mother i am going to meet. she was abducted from a street in imphal, gang—raped overnight and left badly beaten on a doorstep. translation: the attackers i threatened that they will kill my daughter if she spoke about it, but after the video of the two women became viral, i thought, if i don't do this now i would regret it for life. the arrests of several suspects from the viral video attack and the government assurance ofjustice have sparked hope that the silence over the violence women have faced in the ethnic clashes will be broken. translation: i assure the nation the law will take its course -

with all its might. what happens with the daughters of manipur can never be forgotten. the video has become an embarrassment for the meitei community. manipur has a long tradition of women playing a powerful role in civil society. now, in a bid to distance themselves from the attacking mob, a group of meitei women burnt down the house of one of the suspects who has been arrested. translation: he is worth punishing. that's why his house was burned down and we have banished his family from our community. as both communities come to terms with their losses, many say the government has not done enough to resolve the conflict and only a lasting solution can end the violence and begin the long road to recovery and justice.

with a year to go to the olympics, paris is in the final phase of an historic clean—up — which will soon see swimmers and divers back in the river seine. it was a no—go zone for almost a century, because of the filthy water. but that's all about to change — city swimming is set to be one of the major legacies of the games thanks to a $1.5 billion regeneration project universally hailed as a success. hugh schofield reports from paris. a year from the paris olympics and here's a bit of a foretaste — a diving competition. you could say they're testing the water. it's more than eight years since there have been competitive events in the river seine. now, thanks to the improved water quality, they're back. it wasn't just that swimming in the old seine was illegal — no—one in their right mind would have taken the risk. and now... we try to not drink it too much, but a few sips, it's kind of 0k.

it's beautiful water — soft and hot. for us, it's the best. the story of paris is also the story of the seine. but, over a century, thanks to industry and human waste, it became little more than a picturesque channel. the turnaround began 20 or 30 years ago and, now, regular tests carried out by the city show bacteria levels well within safety norms. it's taken time, commitment and a lot of money. and here, just by austerlitz station, is the result in concrete. if you want an idea of the scale of the effort that the french are putting in to cleaning up the river seine, take a look at this. the depth of 20 olympic swimming pools, this massive underground reservoir is for storing storm water — the runoff in heavy rain that can otherwise carry human sewage into the river.

0perational next year, it will make the seine safe for swimming notjust in the olympics, but afterwards for the paris public. they see the guys, the athletes, coming in the river and swimming without any health problem — they will be confident to go themselves in the river seine. that's our massive legacy of the games. life in all its forms is returning. catfish — one of the 35 or so types of fish that can now be found in paris. in the �*70s, anglers reported just three species surviving. not only the fish, also aquatic insects, jellyfish, shrimps, crabs, sponges. a lot of life. for nearly 100 years, scenes like this have been banned.

now, with the olympics around the corner, humans too are coming back to the seine. hugh schofield, bbc news, paris. staying with the olympic games and a sport britain tends to do well in — kayaking. but what are our chances for paris? john maguire has been at the lee valley white water centre to find out. every day, twice a day, joe clarke goes to work at the lee valley white water centre north of london. and this is his office.

joe took gold in the kayak slalom at rio in 2016. commentator: the time of 88.7 could be beaten. i it is! 0h, sensational! the winning margin — a fraction of a second, a blink. the margins are so tight in this sport and that's why the training is so intense. since rio, joe's been through more twists and turns than a slalom run. he failed to qualify for the last olympics in tokyo 2020 and, in recent months, has become a father to hugo, giving him a new focus. i'm doing this to put food on the table for hugo and for belle. so it's very much a case of it's notjust me any more — if it doesn't quite go to plan, i can eat some beans on toast. i'm not sure that's going to go down very well, is it, mate? so, yeah, it's very much a case of this is my living and i've got a mortgage, i've got a child. so it's very much like the focus has changed from notjust me.

i'm doing it for my whole family now. so the outlook changes, but the goal and the process remains the same. it's about winning medals. as with any elite athlete, he spends a great deal of time travelling and competing overseas — not always easy for the family back home. even thoughjoe hasn't been here, he does still really support me when he's away, just face timing and things like that. so, yeah, it's been tough, but it's been fine, really. yeah. it's nice to have him home. it's really nice to have him home. he wasn't actually sleeping that great and thenjoe's come home and got him to sleep through, so, yeah, superman, actually. so i'm very grateful. joe won this gold medal when he was 23 — relatively young to reach the pinnacle of his sport. so he approaches paris, next year, older and, partly due to the disappointment of missing out on tokyo, much wiser. the upset of tokyo has kind

of really lit the afterburners and relit that fire and, sometimes, you need a setback or disappointment to push on and reach your best. so the kind of redemption story for me is a massive one and things are going great and, yeah, just very much excited to get to that world championships, push on and hopefully get that paris spot confirmed. and there'll be something else different next summer. following success in snow sports and bmx, there'll be a cross event where four kayakers at the same time battle it out down the slalom course. it's boisterous, its bold, it's bedlam. joe came in first. benjamin from france was pretty close on his tail, but becausejoe managed so well to execute individually, he got out before benjamin even got there. but very, very committed, because he almost had a boat to the face. kayak coach campbell walsh, a silver medallist from athens in 2004, is on hand

with instant video analysis. joe is training against french paddlers who may very well go head—to—head against him in their home water next summer. they're evenly matched, having shared victories and gold medals so far this season. but it's another olympic medal he's chasing. and, now, with two events to compete in, he may need a bigger trophy cabinet. now it's time for a look at the weather with tomasz schafernaker. hello. it's a day of scattered clouds with a few showers and relatively cool compared to what the mediterranean experienced yesterday. in some spots we had extreme temperatures, the highest of which was recorded in sardinia — 48.2 degrees celsius. not a record, but close to it.

i want to show you what's going to be happening over the next 2a hours. the jet stream will take a bit of a dive across europe and into the mediterranean. that essentially means that the heat will be pushed away towards more eastern parts of the med, so a huge drop for this central mediterranean region. in palermo it was 47 degrees on monday. by wednesday we're talking about 29. so a huge, huge drop in those values. let's have a look at the forecast for the rest of today. sunny spells, scattered showers. temperatures will be typically in the high teens for most of us. 17 there in glasgow, about that in birmingham and maybe nudging up to about 20 or 21 degrees further south. through this evening and overnight, we'll have more persistent showers moving through north—western parts of the country here, eventually reaching the lake district, lancashire, across the pennines and maybe into lincolnshire. most of us, i think, are in for a dry night and relatively bright, if not sunny, start to the day

on wednesday, ahead of this area of low pressure. the weather front will be crossing ireland early in the day, then reaching western parts of the uk here. let's have a look at that. here's 9.00 in the morning. a lot of dry and bright weather, bar the odd shower, but the bulk of that cloud and rain is out towards the west at this stage. this is 4.00 in the afternoon. it's raining in northern ireland. the rain isjust nudging into wales, the south—west, but look at many of these other parts of the country further east — it's actually going to be bright. through wednesday night into thursday, the weather front sweeps through. it will be quite heavy for a time. i think on thursday it's a day of thick cloud with occasional sunny spells and also showers. quite a muggy air, so those temperatures will be typically in the low 20s, maybe pushing 23 or 2a degrees for the south and south—east. here's the outlook. into the weekend, it's once again a changeable picture and that's how it's going to remain really into early august. bye— bye.
