Authorities say Government Forces have retaken control of parts of the rebel held city of luhansk. They are now trying to take control of donetsk. During fighting one soldier killed and four others injured. According to u. N. 300,000 people have already fled this area and that number is expected to go up. The Ukrainian Government shopped a convoy at the border claiming to be caring humanitarian aid. Leaders say the convoy will be used as a pretext for russian intervention.

The ground there is littered with the destroyed vehicles of isis. They are on the run. Kurdish fighters celebrating a rare victory over islamist militants. They displayed ieds and booby traps isis planted near the dam they lost. It was the victory won from the barrels of kurdish guns and rockets but it was one, too, from the air. U. S. Warplanes attacked isis vehicles in positions near the mosul dam more than 30 times in recent days. With our support, iraqi and kurd f majtep forward by recapturing the largest dam in iraq near the city of mosul. If that dam was reached, it could have proven catastrophic. Their firepower has tipped the balance of this battle, inflicting a significant defeat on isis. This the first time that the seemingly unstoppable advance of isis has not only been halted but been reversed. Far from the fighting, yazidi refugees, deeply grateful u. S. And kurdish troops are forcing isis back, they have lost everything. But one small comfort, their enemies have lost ground and perhaps a crucial battle. The dam is now out of their control. The big question now is was this a one off victory over isis or has this victory turned the tide in the campaign against them. Back to you.

Well, students throughout our area are getting set to take on a new school year, of course. A lot of parents may not know this. Health experts say one of the most important back to school purchases you can make is the right backpack. A physician at the Laser Spine Institute in wayne. Doctor, good to have you in. From what i understand, youre seeing a number of kids coming in with back problems related to backpacks. I told you my daughter had an issue several years ago. Its a bigger problem than one would think according to the consumer patient product committee, theres about 5,000 emergency visits per year just based on heavy backpacks alone. According to live science, which is a journal, theres actually been a ten fold increase on children admitted to the hospital for chronic back pain as a result of having a backpack. Given my experience, i can believe those numbers. What should parents be looking for . What should we know about these backpacks . I think, first of all, style is one thing. Safety is another. I think the first thing you have to look for in a backpack is the sides of the backpack. A backpack should not be hanging should be according to the midsoutherner college of orthopedic surgeons two inches above the waste and rest on those back muscles. Four inches below, that backpack is way too big. That should be addressed. Because what happens is with that backpack being so heavy, the tendency of our bodies and childrens bodies to lean forward to compensate. I know. I tried to get my daughter to take one with wheels. She wouldnt do it. We brought in steve and victoria to show us what a backpack should look like and where it should rest on the back. Thats where the problem is. If you and victoria can get close so we can see. A couple of issues to look at. Not only the size of the backpack, you want to look at the width of the straps. The wider the width, the way its going to be distributed in the neck and upper back muscles. Thinner strips can cause nerve damage and vessel damage because the weight is not managed correctly. As well, those straps should be thick in nature to prevent that from happening. They should also have a waist or chest strap. Distributed to the helps and torso. I see victoria has it positioned correctly. Were going to have to let that be the last word. Maybe you could come back later and show us a little more. This is so important in these last few weeks before we get ready for getting our kids to school. My pleasure to be here. Thanks for being here and talking to us. Thanks a lot. Youre wearing your backpacks well. Good luck with the school year. We want to go now to breaking news. Some pictures we want to show you here. This is a fire it looks like on a bus in center city, philadelphia. These are pictures coming into us from the ground here. It looks to be this double if we could get information here on where this is, this is a bus. This is on Chestnut Street in center city. This is the cross street here. Hard to tell, looks like maybe in the 30s on Chestnut Street. Again, the back of this bus seems to be partially engulfed in flames. Actually, im wrong on the location. This is pins landing. This is way down maybe on Delaware Avenue and Chestnut Street, that viaduct, perhaps, over the i95. The good news here is the route 33 bus, the picture youre looking at of the route 33 bus, all the passengers have been evacuated. You see the bus in a stationary position. I imagine once the bus caught on fire, they were able to get all the passengers off safely. Its in a stationary position here. In the pens landing area in philadelphia. The rear part of that bus engulfed in flames. Just the back, the very back, is one of those accordion buses you see traveling our city streets. Its pretty you look at the black smoke there, i see some fire personnel at the rear there. But you see they are just letting this fire burn out. Here comes the white. When you see white smoke, you know water is being put on those flames there and extinguishing that. Isnt that something, just in the few seconds weve been talking to you, youve seen those billows of smoke go from black and gray to white. It looks like they have just about extinguished that flame in the back of the bus. Our vince, who stays on top of social media for us, i understand you have some information to give us on that fire on the septa bus in pins landing. What can you tell us . Renee, were getting the latest information from septa. This is happening right now. This fire is happening on Chestnut Street, the upper level of Chestnut Street. Anyone familiar with the landing there, they know chestnut and market are elevated over top there. The bus fire happening, like you said, on one of those accordion buses, route 33 bus line which runs in that area. All the passenger have been evacuated. The fire is in the back. We do know those buses have their engines in the back of the bus there. They have exhaust pipes and engine back there. You can see right now from our skycam here that firefighters just arrived on the scene a few moments ago and that white smoke like you were talking about has started to rise from that scene. Unfortunately we have some tents blocking that landing. That white smoke is coming up. The Fire Department is telling us that its on front in chestnut, right on pins landing. This is route 33 bus. One of our sky cams caught the fire as it was burning. You can see doors open and no one nearby. Fire crews came over and you can see finally get the fire under control. A large scene there as they continue to fight that fire there on pens landing. All right. So this is whats happening right now. A few moments ago we found out septa bus parked on pens landing, the overpass in that area on fire. We brought a skycam around and able to see flames billowing up from the back of the bus. That was happening in the area where the engine is on the back of the bus there. Fire crews arrived shortly after and were able to extinguish that fire. You can see them doing it now watching live on nbc 10 news at 11 00. Septa is telling us this is the route 33 bus which travels through the area. Penns landing on the overpass there, the buses will park when they take breaks and pick up passengers and start the route again. Septa telling us no passengers hurt.
