More bloodshed in Egypt, at least 50 people are thought to have been

:00:08.:00:14.

killed today in clashes between protesters and security forces. The

:00:14.:00:18.

violence began after supporters of the deposed as a done stage

:00:18.:00:29.

nationwide protests against the security forces. -- supporters of

:00:29.:00:37.

the deposed president. Down below me is the main floor of the mosque,

:00:37.:00:39.

that is where the casualties are is the main floor of the mosque,

:00:39.:00:43.

coming in. If we go back and see it, another body is coming up the

:00:43.:00:48.

stairs. We will be asking if there is any hope of reconciliation

:00:48.:00:55.

between the two sides. Also, an oil exploration company halts trilling

:00:55.:00:58.

in Sussex for security reasons as hundreds of protesters begin setting

:00:58.:01:03.

up camp. Police investigate claims that a

:01:03.:01:07.

17-year-old who jumped to his death was a victim of online blackmail.

:01:07.:01:11.

On the spot fines for lane hogging and tailgating are enforced as

:01:11.:01:17.

police target careless drivers. And Magic Mo Farah wins a place in

:01:17.:01:22.

the history books, he has just won the 5000 metres at the World

:01:23.:01:27.

Athletics Championships. Coming up on Sportsday, an in-depth

:01:27.:01:32.

look ahead to the start of the new emir leak season, and we ask who

:01:32.:01:36.

could challenge the champions. -- the new Premier League season.

:01:36.:01:53.

That evening and welcome to the BBC News at six. There has been more

:01:53.:02:00.

bloodshed in Egypt as security forces clashed with tens of

:02:00.:02:04.

thousands of demonstrators, marching in protests at the deaths of

:02:04.:02:08.

hundreds of people on Wednesday. At least 50 people are thought to have

:02:08.:02:12.

died in the latest violence, many more have been injured. Mishal

:02:12.:02:16.

Husain is in Cairo. Supporters of Muhammed Morsi held rallies,

:02:16.:02:25.

determined to show strength in numbers. Security forces were

:02:25.:02:28.

equally determined to contain them. The worst of the violence was in

:02:28.:02:35.

Ramses Square. This evening, the night-time curfew is just beginning

:02:35.:02:39.

in Egypt and the interior ministry is warning everyone to leave the

:02:39.:02:45.

streets. Our first report is from James Reynolds and you may find some

:02:45.:02:49.

of its distressing. On the banks of the Nile with filmed

:02:49.:02:54.

a crowd marching towards a military line. Security forces then drove

:02:54.:03:06.

forward... And soldiers opened fire. The protesters dragged back their

:03:06.:03:14.

wounded. In the centre of Cairo, the BBC team film to these pictures in a

:03:14.:03:24.

makeshift mortuary. The day of rage had its first dead. The midday

:03:24.:03:34.

advance was slow. And deliberate. Protesters made their way towards

:03:34.:03:39.

Cairo's Ramses Square. Six weeks ago, their movement and now they

:03:39.:03:52.

have had to count hundreds of their own dead. You are

:03:52.:03:57.

have had to count hundreds of their criminal, this man chance. This boy

:03:57.:04:05.

kisses a poster of Mohamed Morsi. Martyrs are loved by God, he shouts.

:04:05.:04:16.

We are here to be. He killed Muslims. The government accuses

:04:16.:04:24.

Islamists of terrorism, the charge provokes an almost desperate

:04:24.:04:29.

response. We are not terrorists, they are terrorists in this country.

:04:29.:04:37.

The Muslim Brotherhood wants to show that its movement is not finished.

:04:37.:04:45.

Its supporters want to prove that they can still command the support

:04:45.:04:51.

of large parts of Egyptian society and take over the streets. That

:04:51.:04:54.

of large parts of Egyptian society promise worries the other half of

:04:54.:04:58.

Egypt. TV has broadcast this footage. It says the gunmen on the

:04:58.:05:06.

bridge are Islamists. The day of rage has extended to Egypt's second

:05:06.:05:12.

city, Alexandria. There has been fighting in other regions as well.

:05:12.:05:15.

To the Muslim Brotherhood, fighting in other regions as well.

:05:15.:05:17.

pictures will become symbols of a new Egypt. A state which sees the

:05:17.:05:26.

Islamic movement as an enemy which has to be defeated. At the end of

:05:26.:05:32.

the week of bloodshed in Egypt, is there any hope of reconciliation

:05:32.:05:36.

between the two sides, or is the gulf between them widening and

:05:36.:05:38.

between the two sides, or is the perhaps unbridgeable? Frank Gardner

:05:38.:05:45.

has this assessment. Egypt's crisis is a stand-off between the

:05:45.:05:50.

country's two most powerful institutions, the military and the

:05:50.:05:54.

Muslim Brotherhood. Their supporters were out in force again today,

:05:54.:05:58.

numbers far smaller than those who called for an end to the Muslim

:05:58.:06:01.

numbers far smaller than those who Brotherhood's incompetent year in

:06:01.:06:05.

power. Their president, Mohamed Morsi, lost the brotherhood of a lot

:06:05.:06:10.

of popularity but it is still the oldest and most influential

:06:10.:06:13.

political organisation in Egypt. Since he was ousted, his supporters

:06:13.:06:17.

feel cheated. They have been hitting back at police stations, churches

:06:17.:06:23.

and symbols of government. Egypt is turning increasingly violent. We

:06:23.:06:28.

know that Al-Qaeda and more militant groups will sick to exploit this

:06:28.:06:31.

situation, they will throw political support behind the brotherhood but

:06:31.:06:37.

at the same time attempt to recruit from the more disenfranchised young

:06:37.:06:38.

at the same time attempt to recruit members to join their ranks instead

:06:38.:06:43.

-- will seek to exploit. That is a big concern. The government says

:06:43.:06:47.

this footage shows Muslim Brotherhood firing at police despite

:06:47.:06:51.

calls from their leaders for only peaceful protests. With so many

:06:51.:06:56.

deaths and emotions running high, there is an increasingly

:06:56.:06:58.

unbridgeable gap between the Muslim Brotherhood on one hand and the

:06:58.:07:01.

authorities on the other hand, backed ultimately by the Egyptian

:07:01.:07:09.

army. The Army is huge, rich and largely respected. The Egyptian 's

:07:09.:07:13.

are taught that it won the 1973 war with Israel. Its thousands of

:07:13.:07:17.

conscripts are drawn from the farms and slums that make up the backbone

:07:17.:07:21.

of Egyptian society. It also controls perhaps up to a third of

:07:21.:07:27.

the economy. It is a big employer with many economic interests, it is

:07:27.:07:30.

not just about defending the national boundaries or borders. It

:07:30.:07:34.

is also about defending the national identity. The Army is also seen as

:07:34.:07:40.

distinct from these men, the police and security forces, blamed for

:07:40.:07:45.

recent massacres. Senior officers from both the police and the Army

:07:45.:07:51.

are once again being given plum posts as provincial governors,

:07:51.:07:54.

cementing their grip on the country. Some fear it is a return to the old

:07:54.:07:59.

military dictatorship. With the violence escalating, Egyptians also

:07:59.:08:01.

military dictatorship. With the fear this. A return to the Islamist

:08:01.:08:06.

insurgency of the 90s that ended with the massacre of over 50

:08:06.:08:13.

tourists in Luxor. Let's focus on what happened at

:08:13.:08:17.

Ramses Square in Cairo today. I was there just before the violence began

:08:17.:08:20.

Ramses Square in Cairo today. I was and you could see how tense the

:08:20.:08:23.

atmosphere was, how quickly in people were inflamed by any site of

:08:23.:08:28.

the military. Jeremy Bowen witnessed the clashes and we will speak to him

:08:28.:08:32.

live in a moment but here is part of what he saw come and you may find

:08:32.:08:39.

this distressing. They have been carrying these bodies upstairs for

:08:39.:08:43.

most of the time we have been here. Down below me is the main floor of

:08:43.:08:47.

the mosque and that is where the casualties are coming in. There is

:08:47.:08:50.

another body coming up the stairs right now. That is where the

:08:50.:08:55.

casualties come in, they treat the people they can. They bring the dead

:08:55.:09:01.

up the stairs. There are now more than a dozen up their in the place

:09:01.:09:05.

where they are preparing them for burial. So many dead bodies that

:09:05.:09:09.

they had to send out for more cotton to wrap them in. Down below, there

:09:09.:09:17.

are people with very serious wounds. I have seen headwinds, stomach

:09:17.:09:22.

wounds, chest wounds. -- head wounds. Jeremy is with me. After

:09:22.:09:29.

terrible scenes like that, where is Egypt heading? Nowhere good, quite

:09:29.:09:35.

frankly. Every time there is a casualties, it inflames the side on

:09:35.:09:40.

which the casualties occur. Both sides are getting more embedded and

:09:40.:09:43.

dug in in their positions for the in sides are getting more embedded and

:09:43.:09:47.

the end, this is only going to be settled by a Egyptians talking to

:09:47.:09:49.

Egyptians and trying to find a common way forward for the country.

:09:49.:09:53.

At present it is being fought out on the streets and that is very

:09:53.:09:56.

dangerous. The more violence there is, the more this country will slide

:09:56.:10:02.

into a civil conflict. It is not a civil war, I must emphasise that, at

:10:02.:10:07.

this point. But if this level of violence continues, if they keep

:10:07.:10:11.

having flare-ups on the streets, in the central squares in Cairo,

:10:11.:10:15.

Alexandria and other places, there is a real risk that this will turn,

:10:15.:10:21.

eventually, into a Civil War. Thank you. The night-time curfew is just

:10:21.:10:28.

beginning in Egypt. At the end of the day that confirmed many people's

:10:28.:10:35.

worst fears of the violence here. The company drilling for oil or gas

:10:35.:10:40.

in West Sussex is suspending its operations there. Cuadrilla says it

:10:40.:10:44.

is acting on police advice after concerns about the number of

:10:44.:10:48.

environmental protesters going to the site. They are concerned about

:10:48.:10:51.

the controversial process of fracking used to extract gas. John

:10:51.:11:00.

Moylan is at the site. Drilling began here exactly two weeks ago.

:11:00.:11:05.

Today, to the delight of protest is, it has ground to a halt. The reason

:11:05.:11:09.

is there is a threat of mass civil disobedience against this site and

:11:09.:11:13.

with some 300 police said to be on the ground, there is real concern

:11:13.:11:19.

about what may lie ahead. From early afternoon they began to arrive.

:11:19.:11:26.

Climate change activists and austerity protesters alongside the

:11:26.:11:29.

occasional bemused commuter. Police say up to 1000 people are expected

:11:29.:11:36.

in the coming days. Which is why it around the Cuadrilla compound, new

:11:36.:11:41.

reinforced fences have gone up. The company is battening down the

:11:41.:11:48.

hatches. Cuadrilla is drilling for oil, it has now grown to a halt.

:11:48.:11:53.

Drilling has completely stopped. The company says that the well is being

:11:53.:11:57.

made safe. Faced with the threat of direct action and the possibility of

:11:57.:12:01.

protest is trying to gain access to this site, Cuadrilla has effectively

:12:01.:12:05.

suspended its operation. We are not drilling, we do have our crew on the

:12:05.:12:09.

site completing essential maintenance, preparing the rake to

:12:09.:12:14.

restart drilling as soon as it is safe to do so. We have done that in

:12:14.:12:18.

response to police advice that we should scale back the operation

:12:18.:12:22.

given the climate change camp has relocated there. Behind the camp,

:12:22.:12:29.

the group, no dash for gas. Last year they halted work at this power

:12:29.:12:39.

plant. They hailed news that drilling had stopped as a partial

:12:39.:12:45.

victory. The fact Cuadrilla are suspending operations is a success

:12:45.:12:48.

for community action, it shows people standing up makes a

:12:48.:12:51.

difference. But it is not enough, we need to stop it now and stop

:12:51.:12:55.

drilling indefinitely. They want to stop fracking, too, the process of

:12:55.:12:59.

injecting sand, water and chemicals at high pressure the rocks deep

:12:59.:13:05.

underground to release oil and gas. Cuadrilla has tried it near

:13:05.:13:08.

Blackpool. The government supports it. Is the shutdown of the bulk site

:13:08.:13:19.

a setback? -- the Balcombe site.I don't think the government will be

:13:19.:13:23.

put off because the economic winds are too big.

:13:23.:13:28.

There is real concern over what may lie ahead. I have no problem with

:13:28.:13:35.

people peacefully protesting but a lot of this has not been. Hopefully

:13:35.:13:41.

it will be OK over the weekend. I think as long as they are peaceful

:13:41.:13:44.

and go about it in the right way, I would support them. The ceiling, all

:13:44.:13:51.

is quiet, but some are threatening mass civil disobedience here in the

:13:51.:13:56.

days ahead. A judge has said that a man who has

:13:56.:14:00.

learning difficulties should be sterilised because it is in his best

:14:00.:14:04.

interest. The 36-year-old has already fathered a child with his

:14:04.:14:07.

girlfriend who has a similar disability. Our home affairs

:14:07.:14:12.

correspondent is at the High Court for us and this is the first ruling

:14:12.:14:17.

of its kind. It is. The man at the centre of this case, known as DE,

:14:17.:14:24.

has been in a long-term relationship with a woman. They had a child but

:14:24.:14:28.

because they can't care for it, it is said to have had a profound

:14:28.:14:32.

impact on their relationship and families. All contact between the

:14:32.:14:36.

two is supervised to prevent a further back and see. The parents of

:14:36.:14:40.

DE wanting to be sterilised because they say it will help them to regain

:14:40.:14:45.

his independence. All agree he doesn't have the mental capacity to

:14:45.:14:48.

make that decision. It was referred doesn't have the mental capacity to

:14:48.:14:52.

to the court and the judge ruled it was in his best interests to be

:14:52.:14:56.

sterilised because he himself does not want further children. It is a

:14:56.:15:00.

landmark ruling but has been made clear it should not be seen as a

:15:00.:15:03.

green light for further rulings of this nature. It is the individual

:15:03.:15:07.

circumstances of this case which led to today's decision.

:15:07.:15:12.

Police are at best a gating claims that the teenager who jumped to his

:15:12.:15:16.

death from the Forth Road Bridge is a victim of online abuse. Daniel

:15:16.:15:19.

Perry thought he was communicating with a girl his own age in America.

:15:19.:15:26.

In fact, he was being blackmailed. Daniel Perry was a normal teenager,

:15:26.:15:30.

living much of life online. He seemed happy but he had been lured

:15:31.:15:34.

into a friendship which is not what it seemed. The apprentice mechanic

:15:34.:15:40.

who worked here thought he was having an online relationship with a

:15:40.:15:44.

girl of his own age. In fact he was being tricked into sending explicit

:15:44.:15:48.

images of himself. The day he died, he was told the images would be sent

:15:48.:15:53.

to family and friends. If he didn't pay up, the message said, he would

:15:53.:15:57.

be better off dead. Within an hour he had jumped from the Forth Road

:15:57.:16:01.

Bridge. This is the first case of this kind at the NSPCC has heard

:16:01.:16:06.

of. It is unlikely to be an isolated case. A message to children who are

:16:06.:16:12.

going through it, you are not alone. In Daniel's case there were other

:16:12.:16:15.

pressures. Three months before he died he was sent abusive messages on

:16:15.:16:25.

ask.fm, they said kill yourself and please kill yourself. Young people

:16:25.:16:30.

in Dunfermline say it is shocking. It happens to people and it is sick.

:16:30.:16:36.

My brother got bullied but he told It happens to people and it is sick.

:16:36.:16:41.

his teacher and they got it sorted. I don't see the point in talking to

:16:41.:16:49.

someone like that. It was the latest example of the dangers of

:16:49.:16:54.

communicating over the internet. Daniel Perry's family are urging

:16:54.:16:57.

other parents to find out who they are talking to online, to prevent

:16:57.:16:58.

other tragedies. it can be one of the most

:16:58.:17:46.

frustrating thing is for drivers, motorists who hog the middle lane or

:17:46.:17:50.

tailgate close to the car in front. From today, police say England,

:17:50.:17:55.

Scotland and Wales have the power to issue on the spot fines of £100 and

:17:55.:18:00.

up to three penalty points for these offences. Fines for other existing

:18:00.:18:03.

offences have also risen. Driving while not using your seat Al has

:18:03.:18:11.

increased from 60 to £100. -- seat belt. The fine for using your mobile

:18:11.:18:17.

phone has now risen to £100. Motoring organisations have welcomed

:18:17.:18:20.

the changes but road safety charities have questioned whether

:18:20.:18:24.

there are enough traffic police to enforce the fines.

:18:24.:18:34.

Drivers across Britain had a bit of a surprise today. I went on patrol

:18:34.:18:41.

and like all forces, they now have the power to dish out fines for

:18:41.:18:47.

offences like hogging the middle lane, driving on somebody's tale or

:18:47.:18:52.

flashing your lights for somebody to move over. They are also handing out

:18:52.:18:57.

bigger fines for using your mobile phone at the wheel. We are about ten

:18:57.:19:04.

minutes in and the police have made the first stop of the day. Someone

:19:04.:19:06.

is suspected of using their mobile the first stop of the day. Someone

:19:06.:19:10.

phone whilst driving. The fine goes up from £60 to £100.

:19:10.:19:16.

It is very dangerous to drive on the phone and I don't mind that I have

:19:16.:19:24.

been done. I am guilty. I think the lane hogging thing will be very

:19:25.:19:27.

been done. I am guilty. I think the difficult to police because there is

:19:27.:19:31.

an element of doubt, a grey area and I don't think the police should be

:19:31.:19:38.

allowed to be judge and jury. This is the reality of a motorway. People

:19:38.:19:42.

are driving close together. What are you going to be giving tickets out

:19:42.:19:46.

for? Middle lane hogging. If the nearside lane is clear and you can

:19:46.:19:50.

move over at the same speed, then move over. We are also looking for

:19:50.:19:55.

aggressive driving, drivers pulling up behind somebody and flashing

:19:55.:19:58.

their lights in order to get them to move out of the way. Filmed on

:19:58.:20:01.

another day this is what he's talking about. Until now, careless

:20:02.:20:07.

driving offences would have meant a time-consuming court case. A more

:20:07.:20:12.

flexible on the spot fine takes ten minutes. But drivers convinced?

:20:12.:20:16.

There are lots of people using mobile phones and hogging the middle

:20:16.:20:19.

lane on the motorway is dangerous. It is off-putting to drive on the

:20:20.:20:23.

motorway or highways when somebody is coming up behind you. It is just

:20:23.:20:29.

another level of bureaucracy, isn't it? I don't know, is it a cash cow?

:20:29.:20:34.

What is your address? On the spot fines mean -- need on the spot

:20:34.:20:38.

police officers. Some experts fines mean -- need on the spot

:20:38.:20:41.

there are not enough around to make this work.

:20:41.:20:45.

Doctors have warned that patients with HIV are giving up their

:20:46.:20:49.

medicine after being told by Pentecostal church pastors to rely

:20:49.:20:53.

on faith in God instead. Medical staff working with children and

:20:53.:20:57.

young people say the lives of some church members are being put in

:20:57.:21:00.

danger because their families are we being told they can be cured. Our

:21:01.:21:04.

religious affairs correspondent Robert Piggott reports.

:21:04.:21:10.

At East London Christian church they aim to heal bodies as well as souls.

:21:10.:21:17.

For Pentecostal churches believe in the healing power of prayer is

:21:17.:21:21.

central to their faith. The pasta here tells the sick to go on taking

:21:21.:21:26.

their medicine but others give different advice. After a little

:21:26.:21:34.

while I did stop taking my medicine. Oliver, not his real name, was given

:21:34.:21:39.

a plastic bottle of water by a Pentecostal pastor and told he would

:21:39.:21:46.

heal him. Oliver, who is 16 and HIV rates -- and HIV positive, stopped

:21:46.:21:49.

taking his medicine and his condition deteriorated. He says

:21:49.:21:53.

others are coming under the same pressure. The pastor stands forward

:21:53.:21:58.

and says, come, take this water, if you drink it for a certain number of

:21:58.:22:05.

days you will be heal. Doctors say they are increasingly aware of HIV

:22:05.:22:10.

patients coming under pressure from pastors to give up the medication.

:22:10.:22:15.

It is very concerning and it is very wrong for these people to do this

:22:15.:22:20.

because it ultimately leads to these patients' death. Pentecostalism is

:22:20.:22:29.

booming. Since 2005 the number of Pentecostal churches in London has

:22:29.:22:33.

doubled. Many of them serve African migrants. Coming from a culture

:22:33.:22:40.

where pastor, like your fathers or mothers, they are like your

:22:40.:22:47.

community keepers and I think the word of your pastor becomes very

:22:47.:22:51.

important. Pentecostal services, emotional, expressive and

:22:51.:22:54.

East will not last long. It will turn cloudy. Wet and windy in the

West already, with gales around exposed coasts and tomorrow is not

pretty. We will all see spells of rain, some of that is quite heavy.

:28:35.:28:40.

There will be some drier spells but not much. A snapshot for 4pm in the
