Government faces public fury as death toll in IS attack on Baghdad rises.

Three days of mourning have been declared in Iraq after the worst day of violence in the country's capital in over a year.

Also, we learn how social media has played a central role in identifying those responsible for the hostage siege in Bangladesh. And, we bring the latest from Wimbledon as Nuala broadcasts live from the grounds
