This is the BBC News.Hello,I'm Jonathon Izard.
Latest reports from the besieged Syrian rebel-held city of Aleppo suggest that only a small number of civilians and fighters have made use of humanitarian corridors set up by Russian and Syrian forces. About 300,000 people are still in the city. Russia says that 169 civilians have left, among them, this woman who criticised the rebels' actions. We left without our remaining children. May God punish them. They did not allow us to leave. They deprived us of gas, water, electricity and bread. There were no medicines. They used to tell us, you live with us or die with us. But the Syrian opposition said the crossing points in the divided city remained closed. Zuhair, an activist, told the BBC the government was just putting on a show. Many people, I can tell you, though, they were assembling around these corridors. But I can assure you that none of them have left yet. It's just a show from the regime that people are leaving and these members are preventing, you know, people from leaving. But it's totally wrong.
据叙利亚城市阿勒颇最新报道,只有少数居民和士兵使用了“俄叙”开通的人道主义走廊,目前阿勒颇被反对派武装控制。约3万居民仍滞留在该城。俄方称有169名居民已安全撤离,请听这位女市民对反对派行径的谴责。孩子们还留在城内。愿上帝惩罚这些反对派。他们不准我们离开。断绝了我们的水电煤和食物。且缺少药品。我们要和他们共生死。但叙利亚反对派表示,城市出入口仍处于关闭状态。活动人士祖海尔对BBC称政府是在演戏。人们聚集在走廊附近。但我敢肯定还没人离开这里。政府只是在做做样子,表面上是离开,其实谁也无法离开。这大错特错。

All 16 people on board a hot air balloon when it caught fire and crashed in the American state of Texas are confirmed dead. It's not clear what caused the crash. But several witnesses say they saw it collide with a powerline before catching fire. David Wallace reports. It's thought the balloon struck powerlines before bursting into flames in a rural area about 30 miles south of the city of Austin. One eyewitness described how, having hit the ground, the balloon then turned into a fire ball. Accident investigators have been working to establish the identity of those on board, and to pinpoint precisely what caused the disaster. It's one of the worst tragedies in hot air balloon in history. Only a crash in the Egyptian city of Luxor three years ago, in which 19 people died, claimed more lives.

The International Olympic Committee has announced that it's setting up a three-member panel that will have the final say on which Russians can take part in the Rio Olympics, which start on Friday. Last week, the IOC was widely criticised when it declined to impose blanket ban on Russia, despite revelations of state-backed doping. Its Director of Communications Mark Adams said the executive board would rule on each case. This review panel will look at every single decision of every single athlete to make sure that the IOC is happy with the decision that's been taken, that they've made all of these different levels of steps and that the decision by the ICAS arbitrator is also putting that forward. Then it's up to the panel to decide if they accept or not for each individual athlete.
