68 people - including three Britons - are now known to have died in the | :00:05. | :00:15. | |
Kenyan shopping centre siege. Tonight, a stand off between the | :00:15. | :00:17. | |
army and Islamist militants continues. They're thought to be | :00:17. | :00:23. | |
surrounded on one floor. New footage emerges of the moment the gunmen | :00:23. | :00:26. | |
attacked a supermarket, where it's reported they could still be holding | :00:26. | :00:36. | |
a number of hostages. It is a sickening and despicable attack of | :00:36. | :00:40. | |
appalling brutality. What we know is that three British national have | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
been killed. Because the situation is ongoing we should prepare | :00:45. | :00:48. | |
ourselves for further bad news. With some reports tonight that the army | :00:48. | :00:51. | |
maybe trying to bring the seige to an end, we'll have the very latest. | :00:51. | :00:54. | |
Also on the programme... Angela Merkel looks set to return as | :00:54. | :00:57. | |
Germany's chancellor as exit polls suggest her party has made big gains | :00:57. | :01:03. | |
in the country's elections. As the Labour Party conference gets | :01:03. | :01:05. | |
underway, Ed Miliband's forced to defend new policies on immigrant | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
workers. And a mauling for United as City run | :01:10. | :01:18. | |
rampant in the Manchester derby. -- Sunderland sack Paolo Di Canio, the | :01:18. | :01:23. | |
first Premier League manager casualty of the season. | :01:23. | :01:36. | |
Good evening. 68 people, including three Britons, are now known to have | :01:36. | :01:42. | |
died in the attack on a shopping centre in Nairobi by Somali | :01:43. | :01:48. | |
militants. Tonight a stand off between Kenyan security forces and | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
the attackers, who claim to be from the Islamist group Al Shabab, is | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
ongoing, with an unknown number of hostages still being held. David | :01:53. | :02:00. | |
Cameron condemned the attack as despicable and sickening and has | :02:00. | :02:08. | |
offered British assistance. Our East Africa correspondent | :02:08. | :02:10. | |
Gabriel Gatehouse is at the scene. Gabriel. | :02:10. | :02:18. | |
This evening, Kenya's disaster operation centre tweeted, this will | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
end tonight and our forces will prevail. Standing where I am, just | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
yards from the shopping centre, things are calm but people are | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
twitchy. About half an hour before we came on air, suddenly they got | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
the wind up them. They were running away from the shopping centre, | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
soldiers and armed policemen cocking their guns and crouching for cover | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
behind vehicles. At the moment we cannot see or hear anything that | :02:47. | :02:51. | |
looks like a final push going on inside there and so, the stand-off | :02:51. | :03:00. | |
continues. It is in this supermarket that at least some of the attackers | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
are believed to be holed up. Tonight, new 30 J emerged of the | :03:04. | :03:10. | |
moment the attack began. -- news footage. In the panic that followed, | :03:10. | :03:23. | |
hundreds ran for their lives as gunmen threw grenades and spread the | :03:23. | :03:30. | |
complex with machine gun fire. -- sprayed the complex. Kenyan forces | :03:30. | :03:33. | |
entered the building, trying to flush out the militants as they | :03:34. | :03:37. | |
secured different areas. Others were able to escape. Still, it is not | :03:37. | :03:44. | |
over. A number of foreign countries, including Britain, have | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
been assisting the Kenyans in this most delicate of situations - a | :03:48. | :03:55. | |
hostage crisis. It is an absolutely sickening and despicable attack of | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
appalling brutality. What we know is that three British nationals have | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
been killed. Because the situation is ongoing, we should prepare | :04:03. | :04:08. | |
ourselves for further bad news. Outside the shopping centre, anxious | :04:08. | :04:11. | |
relatives have gathered in the hope of news, any news, of loved ones | :04:11. | :04:16. | |
still trapped inside. This British man says his wife and young daughter | :04:16. | :04:20. | |
were inside when the attack took place and he has had no word from | :04:20. | :04:24. | |
them since. We did not want to give his name. The emotion, I just keep | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
them since. We did not want to give breaking up. All I am hoping is that | :04:30. | :04:32. | |
they are safe, they are hiding, and breaking up. All I am hoping is that | :04:32. | :04:35. | |
they are just waiting for time to come out. As they wait for a | :04:35. | :04:42. | |
resolution, many Kenyans have been giving blood to help the wounded and | :04:42. | :04:46. | |
perhaps in anticipation of worse still to come. They shall not get | :04:46. | :04:52. | |
away with their despicable and beastly acts. Like the cowardly | :04:52. | :05:01. | |
perpetrators now cornered in the building, we will punish the | :05:01. | :05:09. | |
mastermind is swiftly and painfully. As the security forces continue | :05:09. | :05:13. | |
their operations inside, Kenya's soldiers are on the ground in | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
their operations inside, Kenya's Somalia battling Al-Shabab, the | :05:15. | :05:22. | |
Al-Qaeda linked group that says it carried out this attack. Now, the | :05:22. | :05:25. | |
militants are bringing the fight to the heart of the Kenyan capital. | :05:25. | :05:31. | |
Despite the cam here tonight, there is a sense that this stand-off, now | :05:31. | :05:37. | |
entering its third day, cannot last a lot longer. The army says it is | :05:37. | :05:42. | |
looking to bring it to a speedy conclusion but also says its | :05:42. | :05:45. | |
overriding concern is to bring the remaining hostages out alive. | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
The group claiming responsibility for the attack, Al-Shabab, is based | :05:47. | :05:50. | |
in neighbouring Somalia. A militant Islamist group, they used to control | :05:50. | :05:53. | |
large parts of the country before African Union forces, with United | :05:53. | :06:00. | |
Nations support, pushed them back. They still remain a threat however, | :06:00. | :06:03. | |
as Mark Doyle found out when he accompanied African Union soldiers | :06:03. | :06:06. | |
on patrol in the city of Kismayo - a former Al-Shabab stronghold. | :06:06. | :06:15. | |
Heading into Kismayo with African union troops. A year ago, it was | :06:15. | :06:25. | |
held by Al-Shabab, with an estimated 5000 fighters still controlling most | :06:25. | :06:28. | |
of the countryside. The Islamists still mount hit and run attacks. | :06:28. | :06:34. | |
Victims of an Al-Shabab suicide car bombing in a dilapidated Kismayo | :06:34. | :06:43. | |
General Hospital. This doctor runs a place as best he can. It is hard | :06:43. | :06:48. | |
being a hospital in Somalia. You have so many patients. We are | :06:48. | :06:57. | |
doctors who begin with the most difficult cases. If you begin with | :06:57. | :07:07. | |
someone, others might take the runway and might kill you or injure | :07:07. | :07:12. | |
you. Nearby, we found people living in a rubbish tip. Like hundreds of | :07:12. | :07:14. | |
you. Nearby, we found people living thousands of others they have fled | :07:14. | :07:17. | |
the fighting across the region. These soldiers are Kenyan. They | :07:17. | :07:23. | |
moved into southern Somalia after Al-Shabab attacked towns and | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
villages inside Kenya. Now, they fight under the banner of the | :07:28. | :07:31. | |
African Union, backed by the United Nations. It is a difficult war to | :07:31. | :07:42. | |
win. It is slow, but we cannot give up and say that because it is a | :07:42. | :07:46. | |
difficult war we will stop. We must continue fighting this war. Somalia | :07:46. | :07:49. | |
difficult war we will stop. We must needs outside help because it's own | :07:49. | :07:52. | |
government forces are a jumbled collection of armed men loyal to | :07:53. | :07:57. | |
different warlords. It is all very well the international forces being | :07:57. | :08:02. | |
here, but the solution will have to come at the hands of men like | :08:02. | :08:07. | |
these, the local forces. I am not quite sure what the shooting is but | :08:07. | :08:11. | |
perhaps we should take some cover. The course of the shooting turned | :08:11. | :08:15. | |
out to be an argument at a checkpoint. Arguments escalate | :08:15. | :08:16. | |
out to be an argument at a quickly in Somalia. At night, every | :08:16. | :08:22. | |
night since I have been in Kismayo, the real thing. Al-Shabab try to add | :08:22. | :08:32. | |
France... -- advance... The African Union forces tried to push them | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
back, for now. Angela Merkel appears to have won | :08:36. | :08:39. | |
another four years as Chancellor in Germany. The official results of the | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
general election won't be declared for several hours, but exit polls | :08:43. | :08:45. | |
suggest that her Christian Democrats will be the biggest party, with a | :08:45. | :08:48. | |
commanding lead over the Social Democrats. This report does contain | :08:48. | :08:59. | |
some flash photography. Angela Merkel's party headquarters, | :08:59. | :09:05. | |
as exit polls were announced. Europe's most powerful politician | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
had scored a stunning personal victory and a third term as | :09:09. | :09:16. | |
Chancellor. TRANSLATION: Dear friends, as the jubilation shows, we | :09:16. | :09:20. | |
can be happy about this super results. The result was interpreted | :09:20. | :09:26. | |
as a tribute to her steady leadership during the eurozone | :09:26. | :09:33. | |
crisis. It is a landslide victory. Everybody is enthusiastic about it. | :09:33. | :09:37. | |
It is perhaps the biggest victory of a Democratic party in Germany for | :09:37. | :09:42. | |
the last 20 years. Although Angela Merkel's supporters are delighted | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
with the way the party polls, there is some disappointment. The party | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
they were in coalition with may not have passed the threshold in order | :09:50. | :09:53. | |
to have any seats in the next Parliament. Supporters of that | :09:53. | :10:01. | |
party, the Liberal Free Democrats, watched in stunned silence at their | :10:01. | :10:07. | |
defeat. It may be that Angela Merkel's conservatives can win an | :10:07. | :10:10. | |
absolute majority on their own. But she might yet be forced into a grand | :10:10. | :10:15. | |
coalition with the opposition, leading to weeks of haggling. It is | :10:15. | :10:22. | |
important Germany has a strong government, for Germany and Europe. | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
That is what we will work on. Despite Angela Merkel's triumph, it | :10:26. | :10:30. | |
was not difficult to find voices critical of her policy of rescuing | :10:30. | :10:36. | |
weaker and eurozone countries. TRANSLATION: She sends so much money | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
to these other countries but when it comes to our own people, it is | :10:40. | :10:48. | |
Germany, I am sorry, I cannot support these politics. A new | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
Euro-sceptic Parliament has come very close to winning seats in | :10:52. | :10:57. | |
parliament at the first attempt. Even after Angela Merkel's great | :10:57. | :11:01. | |
success, she is still likely, over Europe, to act cautiously. | :11:01. | :11:06. | |
Ed Miliband has come under fire from business figures for his new policy | :11:06. | :11:09. | |
of making larger employers take on an apprentice for every skilled | :11:09. | :11:11. | |
foreign worker they employ from outside the European Union. It's | :11:11. | :11:17. | |
among a raft of polices that Mr Miliband is announcing that he says | :11:17. | :11:19. | |
among a raft of polices that Mr will tackle a cost of living | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
"crisis" in the UK. Our deputy political editor James Landale | :11:22. | :11:28. | |
reports from Brighton. He is waiting in the wings of | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
British politics, hoping to lead his party into government. With his poll | :11:32. | :11:37. | |
ratings down and the economy up, Ed Miliband acknowledged he had a tough | :11:37. | :11:41. | |
fight ahead. Yellow mag we have listened, learned and are ready to | :11:41. | :11:46. | |
lead. Today, he promised Labour would try to get immigration down, | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
with medium to large company is forced to hire an apprentice for | :11:50. | :11:52. | |
every skilled worker they employ from outside the EU. In our first | :11:52. | :11:59. | |
year in office we will legislate for an Immigration Bill which secures | :11:59. | :12:06. | |
the borders, and cracks down on exploitation, and says to big | :12:06. | :12:11. | |
companies that they can bring people from outside the EU, but they have | :12:11. | :12:16. | |
got to train the next generation. Unusually, one Tory minister been | :12:16. | :12:23. | |
doing and denounced the policy as unworkable. Others said it was an | :12:23. | :12:30. | |
apprentice tax. Most business people would have been very surprised to | :12:31. | :12:34. | |
see a policy that creates red tape and costs for them, rather than | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
address fundamental issues around growth. Like the buses, Labour | :12:37. | :12:43. | |
policies are queueing up. All-day childcare, a -- an end to housing | :12:43. | :12:49. | |
benefit cuts, and the hope to increase the minimum wage with | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
bigger fines for firms who do not pay it. The question is whether | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
policies like this taken together will give voters a sense of what | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
Labour would do in Guzman. The risk is that by focusing on how Labour | :12:59. | :13:03. | |
would help people with the cost of living, the party says less about | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
what it would do with the economy. Tonight, Mr Miliband and his team | :13:07. | :13:13. | |
announced they had asked the Office for Budget Responsibility to tag all | :13:13. | :13:19. | |
their -- check all of their tax and spending promises. They need to be | :13:19. | :13:24. | |
able to trust their leader and many delegates came hearing that a new | :13:24. | :13:29. | |
poll suggests only 17% of voters think Mr Miliband is up to the job | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
of Prime Minister. They also heard on the conference floor some weighty | :13:33. | :13:41. | |
criticism. Be assured, the collective voices of millions of | :13:41. | :13:42. | |
criticism. Be assured, the working people and their families, | :13:43. | :13:46. | |
and 100 years of shared history, will not be washed away or sold for | :13:46. | :13:48. | |
an electoral gimmick. Ed Miliband will not be washed away or sold for | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
begins his conference facing the unions, the polls and his critics. | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
With less than 20 months to the election, he cannot afford to blink | :13:58. | :14:01. | |
first. Well our political editor Nick | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
Robinson is in Brighton. It appears every time Labour makes a policy | :14:05. | :14:08. | |
announcement there's concern about whether the figures add up? | :14:08. | :14:15. | |
They know here at Labour there is tension between, on the one hand, | :14:15. | :14:20. | |
saying anything, any promises that allow the Conservatives to say, told | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
you so, Labour want to spend more, tax more and borrow more, and a | :14:25. | :14:28. | |
danger on the other hand that people say, are you going to do anything | :14:28. | :14:32. | |
different from the coalition at all? What do you really stand for as a | :14:32. | :14:37. | |
party? What is interesting is that it is clear in the words of one | :14:37. | :14:41. | |
senior Labour figure that the party has decided to take, a gamble. In | :14:41. | :14:46. | |
other words, to spell out the list of policy changes, which will allow | :14:46. | :14:54. | |
the Tories to say, where is the money coming from? Labour says it | :14:54. | :14:59. | |
has got the answer to that and the Office for Budget Responsibility | :14:59. | :15:00. | |
could, if they chose to, guarantee Office for Budget Responsibility | :15:00. | :15:03. | |
those figures. The Tory Treasury team say it would be dragging an | :15:03. | :15:08. | |
independent body into politics. It is an argument about the nature of | :15:08. | :15:12. | |
what Labour can and can't afford that will run for a long time. | :15:12. | :15:15. | |
In Pakistan, more than 70 seventy people have been killed in a suicide | :15:15. | :15:18. | |
bombing at a church in the north western city of Peshawar. Two | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
bombers detonated devices as hundreds of Christians were leaving | :15:21. | :15:30. | |
a service. It is the day Pakistan's Christians | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
had long been dreading - they had just been at church at a packed | :15:35. | :15:40. | |
Sunday mass, when two suicide bombers got amongst the congregation | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
and blew themselves up. Dozens of men, women and children were killed, | :15:44. | :15:52. | |
scores more were injured. Now, there is security outside the church, but | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
there are complaints the authorities did not take the threat seriously | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
enough before. Others here treat us like foreigners just because we are | :15:59. | :16:07. | |
Christian, says this pastor from the neighbouring church, but we are | :16:07. | :16:11. | |
Pakistanis, too. The scene is close by where the bodies were taken by | :16:11. | :16:19. | |
nothing less than heartbreaking. -- are nothing less. More bodies have | :16:19. | :16:24. | |
been identified. There is grief and sorrow, but also a lot of anger | :16:24. | :16:28. | |
among the Christians here. While there have been problems, nobody | :16:28. | :16:33. | |
expected an attack like this, the worst on Pakistan's Christian | :16:33. | :16:35. | |
community in the history of the country. This man lost his 11 new | :16:35. | :16:42. | |
role daughter in the bombing but somehow, he talks of forgiveness. -- | :16:42. | :16:49. | |
11 new role daughter. Other Christians wonder if they have a | :16:49. | :16:54. | |
future in their own country. One of China's most powerful and | :16:54. | :16:57. | |
popular politicians has been jailed for life. Bo Xilai was convicted of | :16:57. | :17:01. | |
bribery, corruption and abuse of power. The court found he was guilty | :17:01. | :17:05. | |
of all charges - including an attempt to cover up the murder of | :17:05. | :17:08. | |

With all the sport, here's Lizzie Greenwood Hughes at the BBC Sport | :17:16. | :17:24. | |
Centre. Good evening. Paolo Di Canio has been sacked as | :17:24. | :17:28. | |
manager of Sunder land. There are bottom of the Premier League without | :17:28. | :17:31. | |
a win this season. Yesterday, he apologised to the fans after the | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
team were beaten 3-0 by West Bromwich Albion. | :17:35. | :17:41. | |
In today's Premier League action, there were four games. Match Of The | :17:41. | :17:45. | |
Day 2 follows this programme so if you don't want to know the scores, | :17:45. | :17:48. | |
this is your chance to leave the room. David Moyes insists his team | :17:48. | :17:51. | |
"will get better" after a nightmare first Manchester derby for the | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
United manager. They were beaten 4-1 by City at the Etihad. Sergio | :17:54. | :17:57. | |
Aguerro scored twice. Wayne Rooney netted a late consolation goal. | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
Arsenal are now top of the table - they beat Stoke 3-1 at the Emirates | :18:00. | :18:03. | |
with record signing Mezut Ozil setting-up all three goals. | :18:03. | :18:08. | |
Tottenham are level with them on points after an injury-time winner | :18:08. | :18:10. | |
against Cardiff. And Crystal Palace lost to Swansea. | :18:10. | :18:13. | |
In the Scottish Premiership, Motherwell drew 2-2 at Dundee | :18:13. | :18:16. | |
United. Scotland's women beat the Faroe Islands 7-2 in their opening | :18:16. | :18:24. | |
World Cup qualifying match. Sir Bradley Wiggins was back winning | :18:24. | :18:27. | |
in London today, claiming the Tour of Britain title, his first race | :18:27. | :18:30. | |
victory since the Olympics. Mark Cavendish won the stage with a | :18:30. | :18:32. | |
sprint finish. Our Correspondent James Pearce was watching the | :18:33. | :18:40. | |
action. When he won so memorably on the | :18:40. | :18:44. | |
streets of London last summer, he was just plain Bradley Wiggins. Life | :18:44. | :18:48. | |
has changed since, but his cycling form has dipped. This has been a | :18:48. | :18:53. | |
good week. The tour of Britain has seen him return to winning ways and | :18:53. | :18:57. | |
giving the supporters who so warmed to him last summer to demonstrate | :18:57. | :19:04. | |
cycling's return to popularity. There is a combination of the | :19:04. | :19:10. | |
Olympic effect and the presence of Wiggins and Cavendish to bring large | :19:10. | :19:14. | |
crowds to the streets of London. Cavendish began in the lead. He just | :19:14. | :19:18. | |
needed to prevent anybody breaking away. He was happy to see a bunch | :19:18. | :19:26. | |
finish. Mark Cavendish claimed his third stage win of the comeback | :19:27. | :19:31. | |
