A clearer picture is emerging of the worst mass shooting

49 people were shot dead in a gay nightclub in Orlando,

Florida, yesterday - though that death toll may rise.

We're getting a better sense of the police operation that was put on in

order to save as many lives as possible to end the carnage.

Police say Omar Mateen was forced into a bathroom

by an exchange of fire, and dozens were rescued

after an armoured vehicle was used to punch a hole in the club's wall.

Tonight, President Obama described the attack as an act of home-grown

extremism with no evidence the gunman was directed

The attack happened in the centre of Orlando

Here's our North America editor, Jon Sopel, with the latest

At a former school turned old people's home,

They came in their twos and threes, clinging to each other,

bracing themselves for the worst possible news from the authorities.

The process of identifying the bodies goes on.

part of the show. Then when you hear people start screaming and the sound

doesn't stop... It was rapid fire. He would change, put another

ammunition. I could just smell the ammo in the air and I was like this

is a gun, this isn't fireworks, we need to leave.

New video has emerged from ip side the club. It's just after 2am and

25-year-old Amanda Alvere was filming agos the first shots rang

out. She would die in the barrage.

These are pictures of some of the other young people who've been

identified as having lost their lives.

This is Eddie Justice. He was texting his mother as he was trapped

in the bathroom of the club. Christopher was unaccounted for, his

mother spoke as she waited for news. When he was in high school, he

started the gay-straight alliance. I've been so proud of him for that.

Please let's all just get along. We're on this earth for such a short

time. Today she found out that Christopher and his boyfriend did

not survive. It's unclear how the gunman entered.

The club was packed. The main dance floor was hit first. On the patio

area, the gunfire was heard over the loud music. Others hid in the

toilets, calling police and texting friends and family for help. This

morning I met Ivory, he hid on the patio. He has an English husband,

Jack, who was in Nottinghamshire at the time. They were texting

anxiously. All the music, everything, just stops. Everything

stops. All you hear is this loud noise like pop, pop, pop, pop, like

one after another. It just doesn't stop. It doesn't stop. Like it just

keeps going. So, I run out to an enclosed patio, that was in the

back. How due manage to get out -- how did you manage to get out? I

heard people coming in. I poked my head out. I saw the SWAT team of

people. So I come out, like I'm starting to see them. I put my hands

up. They're all holding up guns like they want to shoot me, I'm like,

hey, I'm not part of this. Please, like, help me. I guess after a

second, they realised that I'm not part of it, they kind of grabbed me

and got me to safety. We were walking low and getting to safety.

What about your friends? Did everyone get out?

Then he gets news that another friend habz died. The siege was

brought to an end by police punching a hole through the nightclub wall

using explosives and an armoured vehicle as a battering ram. There

was a hole in the wall two feet off the ground and about two or three

feet wide. We were able to rescue dozens and dozens of people that

came out of that hole. The suspect came out this afternoon hole

himself, armed with a handgun and a long gun, engaged in a gun battle

with officers, where he was ultimately killed. So what of the

killer, Omar Mateen? Today Barack Obama said that it seems he was

acting aloan. At this stage, we see no clear evidence that he was

directed externally. It does appear that

at the last minute, he But there's no evidence,

so far, that he In Georgia, a gay men's choir sang.

Vigils have been held across the country.

It's scary that there are people in this world that see sexuality,

colour, economic standing as means to divide each other and to say this

person isn't like me, their life isn't worthy or isn't worth

anything. The pain in the gay community is acute and America's

sense of insecurity and vulnerability has intensified still

further. Tonight we're getting a clearer

picture of the man behind all this, Omar Mateen, who was 29. He was

already on the FBI's radar. Buff detectives and agents couldn't

establish any clear links to terror. Today, Mateen's father said if he

knew what has son was up to, he would have told the police.

Our correspondent, Aleem Maqbool, has been to Fort Pierce in Florida

where Mateen grew up and has sent this report on the killer

As more families are told their loved ones died in the attack, new

details are emerging about the man who killed them, Omar Mateen, whose

father saw him just hours before the blood shed began. My son, what he

did was, it was totally, totally wrong. Even though he's my son, I

have to admit, this is a terrorist act. I mean, it is terrorising the

whole people and I don't forgive him. Daniel worked alongside him for

a year as a security guard. He said Mateen ranted about gay people,

black people, Jews and women. The anger rage he had towards people was

amazing. It was like frustration. He hated people. He didn't like life.

He blamed all his problems on these classes of people. Do you feel

confident that you did everything you could? No. I feel responsible or

guilty. During the night, security agencies searched Omar Mateen's

home, while he was still carrying out his murderous attack, he called

police to pledge allegiance to so-called Islamic State. The FBI

says it's still looking into whether he had any help.

Omar Mateen's ex-wife said she'd feared for her own life. I saw that

he was bipolar. He would get mad out of nowhere. That's when I started

worrying about my safety. Then after a few months, he started abusing me

physically. Very often. He wouldn't allow me to speak to my family,

keeping me hostage from them. Omar Mateen lived here, his father says

he didn't see this coming. But his son was investigated by the FBI

twice. Once because of suspected associations with a suicide bomber

and once because people he worked with were alarmed with his rhetoric,

both times, the FBI dropped those investigations.

Was your son getting any help from mental health programmes? I didn't

see no sign. He was working, he was on time, he didn't miss, he didn't

do nothing as far as violence goes, his wife was happy, the kids were

happy. There are many under the spotlight, but ultimately it was one

man with two weapons and a twisted outlook on life that plunged so many

families into despair. As we've heard, President Obama has

described the attack He also restated his view that US

gun laws had to change to stop disturbed individuals or terror

organisations getting access Our correspondent, Nick Bryant,

reports from Washington on America's reaction and the political

aftermath of the attack. They sang the National Anthem

outside the White House last night. In modern-day America,

traumatic events like the massacre in Orlando tend to expose

the country's divisions, That is especially so in election

season, when the fight to occupy this building has become

so bitter and so angry. Declaring that political correctness

was crippling America, Donald Trump complained

the immigration system is broken and redoubled his demand for a ban

on Muslims entering the country. When I'm elected, I will suspend

immigration from areas of the world where there is a proven history

of terrorism against the United States, Europe,

or our allies, until we fully Hillary Clinton said identifying

lone wolves should be a top national priority and she called for new gun

controls preventing those on terror watch lists from buying

the weapons of war. If the FBI is watching

you for suspected terrorist links, you shouldn't be able to just go buy

a gun with no questions asked. As the political debate raged,

the quiet practical work at this mosque in Virginia

of persuading young Muslims Unlike Britain, America has no

national counter-radicalisation Community leaders who have launched

their own initiatives are calling We are sharing in this

challenge together. And the government,

as well as the communities, need to partner together to counter

radicalisation of all types because there is a common

thread of mental health, social issues, political issues,

psychological issues, that need to be addressed

in a comprehensive manner. In this American tragedy, various

national fault lines collide. The perennial question of gun

control, gay rights, immigration, how to protect America and how

to preserve American values. Orlando has become the bloody

backdrop for an ever more divisive Today, that battle highlighted the

stark and dramatic differences between the candidates, both in

policy and in personality. Donald Trump focussing so much on

immigration, Hillary Clinton devoting her speech, a lot of it, to

gun control. Two of the most polarising issues in American

politics. She believes he does not have the temperament or foreign

policy experience to be President. He believes you need a strong man in

the White House and that she is too weak.

Vigils have been held around the world in memory of the 49 people

who lost their lives in the Pulse nightclub.

In Soho, in central London, the heart of the city's gay scene,

thousands of people left bars and restaurants and filled

the streets, holding a minute's silence before

Many held rainbow flags, showing solidarity with the LGBT community.

Well, our North America editor, Jon Sopel, is here now.

One wonders what effect this may have on US policy? You will see a

tightening of security at airports, at railway stations. America feels

insecure after this attack. There is a recognition that there is a

problem and people will deal with that. On the bigger, more macro

questions like gun control, I don't see any possibility of any sudden

change there. On immigration, we heard Donald Trump talking about it.

Would that have stopped a home-grown lone wolf killer like we have seen

here? What happens when you have got someone who is an Islamist, a

homophobe, with mental health issues, in a society where there is

easy access to guns? There is no easy solution to that. Many thanks

for that. The roads remain sealed off around here. That is still an

active crime scene. You wander around the streets, talking to

people, there is a sense of shock and people are stunned by what

happened. As you heard Jon say, will anything change? That is up in the

air. Back to you. Apologies for the break-up in the

picture there. The former Prime Minister,

Gordon Brown, has weighed into the referendum debate,

saying Labour voters have the most to gain if Britain remains

in the European Union. He claims Britain can lead

to strengthen the case for remaining in the EU amid Labour fears that

many of its core supporters Here's our political editor,

Laura Kuenssberg. Clearing the stage, the campaign

to persuade you to vote in wants Tories out of the way,

at least today. In place, the man who never quite

convinced the public Some of you, I gather, were

expecting David Cameron to be here. You cannot succeed in securing

financial stability, The European Union is not

the cause of the problem. The European Union can be

part of the solution. With the Tories divided,

it's what almost every Labour MP What sort of message would we send

to the world on June 23rd, if we, Britain, decided to walk away

from our nearest neighbours? This is not the

Britain I believe in. This is not the Britain

we should aspire to be. We should be a leader in Europe

and not leaving it. It was meant to be David Cameron up

there this afternoon. Instead, it's the former

Prime Minister, Gordon Brown. That tells you everything

you need to know. The Remain camp is worried,

deeply worried that their weeks of warnings have fallen on deaf

ears as far as Labour So, this week, different

faces, different voices What about immigration

that troubles so many? Many Labour voters do feel,

simply, when you were in power, too many people came

here from other parts of Europe, and that's why they

think you lost touch. That's why many of them might

vote to leave. In the main, the immigrants who've

come to our country are making What we've got to make sure is areas

under pressure have public services Do you think you can make

a difference in this vote? I'm not claiming I have got any

ability to make a huge Together we can show

that we can get things done. The occasional Labour MP is enjoying

being on the other side, sharing And with new predictions today that

immigration will go up and up for decades, Outers claimed

Gordon Brown's appearance shows I can tell the Remain

side are a bit rattled, my friends, because they had

a re-launch this morning. They decided to use Gordon Brown

to inject some dynamism into proceedings, which shows

the measure of the panic They're resorting to more and more

scare stories, more and more misery, more and more discussion of the end

of civilisation as we know it. Do we believe this

doom-mongering, folks? All David Cameron's

warnings seem not enough. We have ten days left to proclaim

Leicester. A study by a group that campaigns

for lower immigration has forecast that if Britain votes to remain

in the EU, net migration will total more than a quarter of a million

a year for at least 20 years. The report - by Migration Watch -

says there's widespread denial about the impact

of rapid population growth. The Leave campaign says it's

impossible to predict migration Here's our chief

correspondent, Gavin Hewitt. Migration, numbers, forecasts,

continue to be at the heart of this Today, Migration Watch,

a research group campaigning for lower immigration,

has attempted to answer the question - what do

the next 20 years look like? Migration is currently running

at 330,000 people a year. 184,000 of that number come

from the EU. Migration Watch forecasts net

migration will exceed 250,000 for the next 20 years,

with 60% coming from the EU. The group says it has examined

current figures and compared a low They looked at a variety of factors,

including salary levels between countries and how they might

act as a pull factor. The report says there

is complacency about the impact of rapid population growth,

which, it says, could It argues that the figures

would raise the UK population to We have done this before and we have

got it right before. Of course, there are uncertainties,

but if we are going to have those sort of increases, frankly we have

to think about the houses that we are going to need,

the GPs that we are going to need, These are all hugely relevant

to an increasing population. But this projection is based on no

new country joining the EU. And other forecasts have

shown lower increases. Migration Watch says that if Turkey

joined the EU in 2024, then net migration could be as high

as 420,000 people a year by 2035. The Government and the Remain camp

insist there is no chance of Turkey joining the EU

in the foreseeable future. Others point out how difficult

it is making forecasts. I think we need to take these

predictions with a They are not particularly reliable

because they give specific numbers to things that we can't estimate

because we are talking so many years in the future, and we don't know

what kind of shock events might take Immigration remains

a central battleground. Only by leaving the EU can

you control it, say Risking the economy is not an answer

to immigration, says Remain. The President of the European

Council, Donald Tusk, has said that a UK vote to leave

the EU next week could cause the destruction of "Western

political civilisation". We can talk to our Europe

editor, Katya Adler, who's in the Austrian capital

Vienna. He couldn't have put it in any

stronger terms. What does he mean? It is a pretty apocalyptic-sounding

statement that Britain leaving the EU could lead to the destruction of

the EU itself and Western civilisation. Those who accuse the

Remain campaign of focussing on project fear have made a lot of

them. Donald Tusk is no EU federalist, those politicians he

says are out of touch with the people of Europe. What he is is a

former Polish Prime Minister and Eastern Europe and much of NATO

worry that a weakened EU could be less stuff on sanctions against

Russia emboldening President Putin. Donald Tusk says a Brexit would lead

to anti-Europeans open ago champagne bottle. A referendum, he says, is a

big gamble and an EU-UK divorce would be lengthy, draw mattic and

costly -- traumatic and costly for Britain. Tonight, we have heard that

the Sun newspaper is calling for a leave vote. Thank you.

Polls tell us it will influence the way we vote on June 23rd.

Ultimately, many people believe this decision is based upon what is best

for the health of the UK economy, what is best for businesses

to flourish, what is best for jobs, for people's income,

When it comes to the referendum, this is certainly a big issue.

on what could happen if Britain were to leave the European Union.

The Remain camp insists leaving would be a risky manoeuvre.

The big issue is uncertainty over what our relationship would be

Trade could be adversely affected by leaving the EU single market

and the EU is our single biggest destination for exports,

which creates jobs and national income.

Sterling has already been under pressure and its value

is likely to fall on Brexit, helping exports but meaning it

would be pricier to travel abroad and imports would be more expensive.

Some in the Leave campaign agree there could be a short-term impact,

but insist there is another way to look at the economic debate.

Supporters of Britain leaving the EU say that over the longer term,

the economy would actually strengthen.

They say that Britain would be able to sign free trade deals

with countries like America and China without the need

for complicated agreements with 27 other EU countries.

They say there will be less red tape because Britain would no longer have

Football now and six England fans have been jailed in Marseille

following the violence during the opening

But a French official has described some of the Russians involved

The England manager Roy Hodgson and captain Wayne Rooney

have appealed to fans "to stay out of trouble".

This report contains flashing images.

They are the scenes that shamed football and could see England

kicked out of Euro 2016 in disgrace. The team has been trying to focus on

their next game, but with the threat of expulsion from the tournament

hanging over them, today coach and captain had this message for the

supporters. I'd like to ask the fans, if you don't have a ticket,

please don't travel. For the fans with tickets, be safe, be sensible

and continue with your great support. I'm very concerned about

the threat which is now hanging over us and the sanctions that could

possibly be imposed upon the England team. We have worked very hard to

get here and we desperately want to stay in the competition. I'm

appealing therefore to all of our fans, and we appreciate your support

at the matches, of course, but I'm appealing you to stay out of

trouble. Uefa's warned England and Russia they will both be thrown out

of the tournament if there is any repeat of the scenes in Marseille,

the French authorities say a hard-core group of Russian thugs

were largely responsible, none have been arrested.

TRANSLATION: There are 150 people who have a reputation inside Russia

of being hooligans. They are very well trained, they are very fast and

it is difficult to identify them. They came here to fight and were

very quick and very violent. Today, a French court jailed six England

fans for their involvement in the clashes, 20-year-old Alexander Booth

sentenced to two months for throwing a bottle at police and banned from

France for two years. His father gave this reaction. Absolute

disgrace. Making scapegoats out of poor kids like Alex. Find the real

thugs. Excuse me. The weekend's violence has cast a shadow over a

tournament that has only just begun. The trouble raising serious

questions about the effectiveness of the policing, the segregation of

fans and stewarding inside the stadium and Uefa's scheduling of

certain matches deemed high-risk. England came close to being kicked

out of Euro 2000 but some believe they are at even greater risk. David

Davies was the FA's Executive Director at the time. A team has

never been as close as it is today to being thrown out of a major

football tournament. Uefa are under huge pressure because of the threat

of terrorism, which has only grown over the past 20 years, to be seen

to be acting decisively. Yesterday, more disorder for the authorities to

contend with. This time, German fans in Lille. With Russia playing there

on Wednesday and England fans using it as a base for the match with

Wales the following day, the trouble could be far from over. Dan Roan,

BBC News. Microsoft has announced that

it's buying LinkedIn, the professional social networking

website, for a massive ?18 billion. It's one of the biggest

tech deals in history, and when the news broke,

LinkedIn's share price rose by 50%. Analysts say the deal will help

Microsoft boost sales Here's our technology correspondent,

Rory Cellan-Jones. It's a social network for business,

linking more than 400 million people worldwide who make professional

contacts, seek new jobs, or recruit new staff. Now LinkedIn is being

bought by Microsoft in the software company's biggest ever deal. The two

partners explained why they thought this marriage would work. When you

think Microsoft, you think about professionals, knowledge, work,

productivity. There is no better way to realise that mission than

connecting the world's professionals and making them more successful. At

the end of the day, we are trying to accomplish the same thing - connect

the world's professional and make them more productive and successful.

Just a quater of the members visit the site every month. That compares

to 1.65 billion who visit Facebook. Microsoft is paying ?174 for each of

them. Just for context, it could have bought Sky TV, a business which

made big profits last year, when LinkedIn made a substantial loss.

The company's last big move went badly, with the entire value of the

deal written off within a year. Microsoft is turning into a cloud

computing company, storing customers' data on offering them all

sorts of services, now including LinkedIn. The hope is that the

network brings with it something very valuable. The data about each

professional in the workplace is extremely valuable from an

enterprise perspective and for Microsoft to sell services into

companies around the world. Some users took to the network to express

concern about the deal. They may need convincing that connecting with

Microsoft is a good idea. In a moment, the news

where you are but before we go we'll leave you with some of the images
