The worlds Chemical Weapons Watchdog has said that the banned nerve agent sarin was used in an attack in syria which killed dozens of people. The gas was dropped in april in on a town in the north of the country, and drew condemnation Around The World. Despite denials of responsibility by syrias assad regime, the foreign secretary borisjohnson says there is no doubt that they were behind the attack. Well, this is a first step on a process that the uk has obviously been trying to lead, to hold to account the people who are responsible for dropping chemical weapons in Khan Sheikhun on april 4th, and im pleased. Although i must say, not surprised. That the opcw, the chemical weapons inspectorate, in fact confirmed that this is indeed sarin. The exact responsibility for dropping the sarin will now go to a joint investigative mechanism to be confirmed, but ive got absolutely no doubt the finger points at the assad regime, and weve got a European Council coming up where we will drive on with the uk campaign to impose sanctions on those responsible. The us has already brought out sanctions on 300 people as a result of this. People who drop chemical weapons on innocent people should be held to account. An alliance of us backed fighters is advancing on what was once Islamic States stronghold city in syria, raqqa. Thousands more refugees are streaming out of raqqa as the terror group is reduced to a few hundred fighters. And in the last hour, a Monitoring Group has said Islamic State is withdrawing from the last area it was holding in aleppo province, after a syrian army advance. It comes as us and uk backed Iraqi Forces Continue their offensive in the city of mosul, after the Iraqi Government announced an end to the so called caliphate is declared three years ago. Germany has joined most other European Countries in legalising Same Sex Marriage. Parliament passed the measure by a majority of 393 votes to 226. It happened after the german chancellor Angela Merkel changed her position to allow a free vote on the issue, though she herself voted against. Our berlin correspondentjenny hill explained how Angela Merkels decision to allow her mps a free vote was crucial in enabling the law to pass. Angela merkel may have voted against it herself but she will go down in history as the one who made this possible, the left have been looking to make this and take this before parliament, Angela Merkel has always stood firm against the issue of Same Sex Marriage until earlier this week, she gave an interview in which she appeared to drop her opposition, saying she had met a lesbian couple in her own constituency who had fostered eight children. Following the meeting she had a change of heart. She went on to say that she would now allow conservative mps to vote with their conscience and not have to follow the party line. That, in effect, allowed the political left to bring hurriedly, because todayis left to bring hurriedly, because today is the last parliamentary session before they go off on summer break, to bring that bill to the floor, and because conservative mps are now able to vote freely, another support was there to secure the legislation. There was a lot of cheering and clapping as the vote was announced. Not often you see confetti thrown on the floor of the German Parliament but that is what happened this morning. Interestingly, the politics behind this. By voting against the legislation, Angela Merkel has made sure that when it comes to the election here in september, she can say to the more conservative elements of her electorate that she stood firm on conservative issues. On the other hand, by in effect allowing this vote to happen, to go through, she is not only cementing her reputation as one of the west s last defenders of liberal values, as she has been called, she is also seeing of a problem which might have occurred should her party win a majority in the autumn. As she is very likely to have to build a coalition. The partners she was looking at had indicated they would make Same Sex Marriage legislation a condition of coalition. Angela merkel, whether by accident or design, has managed to head that off at the pass. It is worth noting that the lesbian couple who apparently changed her mind have now invited Angela Merkel to their wedding, reportedly. More than a quarter of women who are overdue for a Cervical Cancer testdont know screening is available, according to Cancer Research uk. The Charity Found there was a particular lack of Awareness Among women who spoke english as a second language. Around 3,000 new cases are diagnosed every year, but the charity says 75 would be preventable through early detection. Our health correspondent, sophie hutchinson, has more. The point of the smear is not to find cancer but look for precancer cells, which can be treated very effectively. We can stop this cancer in its tracks. Earlier, the bbcs Victoria Derbyshire programme covered the story. One woman, whose mother died of cancer, told the programme about the importance of Smear Programme about the importance of smear tests. My mothers death resulted in my Father Setting up the trust. And so i am a trustee and we do trust. And so i am a trustee and wedoa trust. And so i am a trustee and we do a lot of work trying to keep people informed about why it is so keep people informed about why it is so important to show up when you are invited, what it is actually about, what the experience would be like, trying to put people at these. eve ryo ne trying to put people at these. everyone took up testing, are you saying nobody need die of Cervical Cancer . I dont think scientifically you can say 100 but certainly we know we can prevent this cancer, it is not even just a case of curing the cancer while you have it, it is preventing it before it reaches that stage. Certainly we know that screening prevents thousands of deaths every year. There is research to show that. You are 26, i know that you are actuallyjoining us from a hospital car park, you are there a test having discovered that you have abnormal cells, you found that out not having gone for surgical screening for some time, tell us what is your situation. Few years ago, i suffer from a lot of pelvic pains, i went for a cervical screening, the test came back clear. The procedure for me was quite uncomfortable. Quite painful. Sol quite uncomfortable. Quite painful. So i tried to put off the other screening. When i got a letter through, i ignored the letters. I must have ignored about 15 to 20 letters. Mainly because i found the la st letters. Mainly because i found the last procedure quite uncomfortable for me. I decided to go, they found low grade abnormal cells and Hpv Infection and sol low grade abnormal cells and Hpv Infection and so i am now going for another surgical screening, to make sure how serious it is. You say you ignored all the letters, having done that, having gone and discovered you have the abnormal cells, how do you feel about the fact you waited so long . When i got the letter through to say they had found abnormal cells, to be fair, i broke down in tears. I think that i wasjust quite angry at myself, leaving it too long. Also quite grateful that i had been, because i dread to think what i would have put myself in if i had ignored it for another year or two years. I ignored it for another year or two years. Lam pleased ignored it for another year or two years. I am pleased that i went through with it. Studio next year, russia will play host to the biggest event in world football.

But in just a year, Moscows Metro will be flooded with foreigners, here for the world cup. The moscow metro is one of the most stunning in the world, but its a pretty bewildering place to be if you dont speak or read russian. And thats going to be the case for the huge number of Football Fans who are heading here, probably less worried about the architecture than making it to the match. So this is the new football friendly face of the metro. So how do i get to spartak . You have to take the brown line number five. They are now training dozens of cashiers, like angelina, to operate in english. We are ready to meet everyone and hope we will give some happiness, because dont be afraid, we speak.

So lets go and ask for a return, and the booth says the lady speaks english, so lets see how we go. We found the lost man of the moscow metro and asked him to film his next trip. Normally when you go abroad you can make out roots of words, but here, obviously with the alphabet being different, its very difficult. There are no clues, no signs at all to help you. You just have to guess sometimes and trust youve got it right. Luckily most russians arent nearly so unfriendly as theyre painted. Do you know how to get to spartak Metro Station . Three. Three station. As for the metro staff, theres still a year to go for fine tuning before the world cup. Sarah rainsford, bbc news, on the moscow metro.

Our Correspondentjoe Miller joins us from berlin. Talk us through how this is going to work, in practice. Comes into effect in a few months time, in october, and the truth is, nobody is quite sure how it will work yet. Social Media Companies are scouring to get lawyers involved, to get people, to work out the process that will have to be involved. It may seem that will have to be involved. It may seem quite simple when it is a straightforward case of illegal hate speech or Child Pornography but they say the bulk of complaints they get about content is about stuff that is more ambiguous, that takes time to work out whether it is illegal under german law, often involves contacting the people involved, the people who have written the post, that takes a lot of manpower. That is what i wanted to find out, 24 hours from when. . From being notified by the authorities . Customers . By whom . Being notified by customers primarily, already under the Current System they are notified by the authorities when authorities find something they consider a legal, the process of getting things down when it has been deemed completely illegal is quite swift, a recent report by the Eu Commission in brussels showed about 80 of illegal posts are taken down in germany within a very short period of time. What this really applies to is doing is the users flag up and say, this is something i think is abusive. One persons abusive post is another persons free speech and free comment and it is difficult to make those distinctions. What are the company saying about all of this . The company is voiced concerns from the very first draft of this law, they say that it would lead them to accidentally delete things for accidentally delete things for accidentally sends things because they were trying to avoid fines, Turnaround Times were unrealistic, they have been quiet since the law passed, a feeling that they will have to comply, what they are hoping is that Human Rights Campaigners who have been opposed to this law for human rights reasons, will appeal it in German High Court and brussels, where they say it contravenes a number of eu laws.

Were used to seeing Emergency Aid delivered by air but a new experiment in malawi should see aid delivered by drones. In one of the poorest countries in the world, flying may be the only way to get supplies and information where theyre needed. Bill hayton reports. Small beginnings but could Drone Technology save lives in malawi . In villages like this, help can be a long way away, down a dirt track. When floods come, as they do almost every year, those tracks become rivers. The government hopes to deliver aid by air instead. These drones will be very helpful to people suffering from disasters. In terms of what the government wants to do to help these people affected by disasters. This is not the first time drones have been used in malawi. Last year, the Un Childrens Fund began flying Blood Samples from remote clinics to central laboratories to test for hiv and aids. Now, the government has let Unicef Open Up part of the country so Unicef Open Up part of the country so people with other ideas for using drones can test them to see if they work. This is a corridor that has 5000 square kilometres, basically a dedicated space, one year. Private sector, resurgence fusions, can really test what drones can do for good. Around half of the people of malawi live in poverty, the countries near the bottom of most measures of development. On their own, drones will not fix that, but this experiment will test whether they can be a part of the solution. Time for a look at the weather forecast.
