Hello, I'm Ros Atkins, this is Outside Source. | :00:07. | :00:13. | |
These brothers have been identified as carrying out the Brussels | :00:14. | :00:18. | |
bombings at the airport and the Metro. We will tell you who they are | :00:19. | :00:23. | |
underlings to the Paris attackers. Earlier, in minute's silence was | :00:24. | :00:28. | |
held across Belgium to remember those who died. We will be live in | :00:29. | :00:34. | |
Brussels shortly. Also we will go to the BBC newsroom in Washington to | :00:35. | :00:37. | |
talk about these two. Further victories mean it's more likely than | :00:38. | :00:41. | |
ever that the next President will be one of them. I'm just as we did | :00:42. | :00:47. | |
yesterday... If you have questions about the ramifications, use this | :00:48. | :00:52. | |
hash tag, I live in the BBC newsroom and I will try and get you answers. | :00:53. | :01:13. | |
After the attack in Brussels, this was the reality today... Huge queues | :01:14. | :01:21. | |
of people, hundreds and hundreds lining up to get onto public | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
transport. This was a station in the centre of town. Huge queues because | :01:27. | :01:29. | |
of the inevitable security checks following the attacks yesterday. | :01:30. | :01:33. | |
Further confirmation of the number of people who lost their lives. | :01:34. | :01:41. | |
These figures assured from the Belgian Health Minister, ten dead at | :01:42. | :01:44. | |
the airport, 21 at the Metro station. 260 people at least | :01:45. | :01:49. | |
injured. We know a large more about the people behind the Brussels | :01:50. | :01:59. | |
attacks. This is Khalid and Ibrahim el-Bakraoui, the suicide bombers at | :02:00. | :02:02. | |
the station and the airport respectively. We know some of the | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
attackers left an apartment in an area of Brussels cold Schaerbeek and | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
they took a taxi to the airport, not long afterwards CCTV caught images | :02:12. | :02:18. | |
of three men in the terminal, we know the man in the middle is one of | :02:19. | :02:22. | |
the brothers, one of the other two is thought to be a man cold mad Jim | :02:23. | :02:27. | |
luck Riley, different media reporting different things. The man | :02:28. | :02:32. | |
right remaining on the run, these two died in the expulsions. These | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
brothers work already being sought by the police. The last few hours, | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
this has come out from the Turkish government. The Turkish President | :02:42. | :02:48. | |
saying one of the Brussels attackers was caught in Turkey in June and | :02:49. | :02:56. | |
deported to Belgium. We understand that his Brahim el-Bakraoui. This is | :02:57. | :03:03. | |
the Interpol website. It's an international policing organisation. | :03:04. | :03:08. | |
Listing the other brother as being wanted on terrorism charges. Both | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
men very much known to be a 30s. There are two other key points that | :03:14. | :03:17. | |
I want to make. Regarding these brothers. You remember this time | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
last week we reported a police raid in the south of Brussels? An area | :03:23. | :03:28. | |
cold Forest. The flat they are that was raided, being rented by one of | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
the brothers. Some people escaped the raid and were not caught, this | :03:34. | :03:42. | |
may have been them. Then... Let's bring in Salah Abdeslam. His | :03:43. | :03:47. | |
fingerprints found on the flat, one of the suspects in the Paris | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
attacks, a direct connection between those involved in Paris and those in | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
Brussels. Here is our European editor. | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
Silence spoke far louder than words in Brussels today. | :04:04. | :04:05. | |
In sadness for the victims of yesterday's bombings. | :04:06. | :04:30. | |
In fear that there will be a next time. | :04:31. | :04:42. | |
And that next time, it could be them. | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
But there is a strong sense here of defiance, too. | :04:49. | :04:57. | |
Long-live Belgium, these people shouted. | :04:58. | :05:02. | |
And on a massive manhunt for all those linked to this, | :05:03. | :05:08. | |
yesterday's devastating bombing at Brussels Airport | :05:09. | :05:10. | |
Police say they are looking for this man. | :05:11. | :05:23. | |
There is confusion about his identity, but it is believed | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
he could have raised the casualties can even higher. | :05:27. | :05:32. | |
he could have raised the casualties count even higher. | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
TRANSLATION: The third suspect, wearing a light-coloured coat | :05:36. | :05:36. | |
and hat is on the run, he left a large bag and departed | :05:37. | :05:40. | |
His bag contained the biggest explosive device. | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
Shortly after the arrival of the bomb disposal unit, | :05:45. | :05:47. | |
the bag was detonated because of the volatility | :05:48. | :05:49. | |
The other two men in this photo were suicide bombers. | :05:50. | :06:02. | |
In the middle, Brahim el-Bakraoui, a Belgian national. | :06:03. | :06:04. | |
Police have found a note in which he writes that he is under | :06:05. | :06:08. | |
pressure and on the run to avoid arrest. | :06:09. | :06:09. | |
Belgian media said he had recently been linked to the Paris | :06:10. | :06:12. | |
This is his brother Khalid, the metro suicide bomber. | :06:13. | :06:19. | |
Today, Belgium's Prime Minister accompanied the country's king | :06:20. | :06:26. | |
and queen to visit some of the 260 injured yesterday. | :06:27. | :06:34. | |
Julian Firkin was one of the lucky ones. | :06:35. | :06:36. | |
He and his girlfriend emerged unscathed, physically at least. | :06:37. | :06:39. | |
The second explosion happened, and at that point I jumped on top | :06:40. | :06:46. | |
of her and grabbed her suitcase and kind of held that over the top | :06:47. | :06:49. | |
of both of us just to protect us from the ceiling, | :06:50. | :06:52. | |
The commotion died down a little bit, but there was lots of screaming | :06:53. | :07:01. | |
and people running around, and then the airport staff came | :07:02. | :07:03. | |
running and screaming and shouting at everyone to get out | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
of the building, evacuate, evacuate, as quickly as you can. | :07:07. | :07:15. | |
This city is still digesting the full horror of yesterday's | :07:16. | :07:18. | |
attacks, but on the surface at least, there is a sense of life | :07:19. | :07:21. | |
It is not that commuters here have forgotten about the attacks one day | :07:22. | :07:33. | |
on, or that they don't care or they are unaware of the warnings | :07:34. | :07:37. | |
But this is a gritty, down-to-earth city. | :07:38. | :07:40. | |
The attitude here it is, life has to go on. | :07:41. | :07:42. | |
People are grateful for the extra security. | :07:43. | :07:46. | |
Maybe it is not in Brussels, maybe it is another country. | :07:47. | :07:57. | |
TRANSLATION: There is a risk, but keeping our jobs mean taking | :07:58. | :08:04. | |
trains, and at least there are more police here now. | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
More police, more soldiers, more security checks at train | :08:10. | :08:12. | |
Most people here tell you they refuse to be scared, | :08:13. | :08:17. | |
Ben Brown has been reporting all day from Brussels. He joins us now. If I | :08:18. | :08:39. | |
compare what was said at the start of today and now, the information | :08:40. | :08:43. | |
ebbing and flowing from the authorities? Yes, it does, we | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
started the day with reports that one of the suspects, Najim | :08:49. | :08:54. | |
Laachraoui had been arrested in the Anderlecht area of the city. Then | :08:55. | :08:56. | |
there was news that he hadn't been arrested. And now, we hear from some | :08:57. | :09:05. | |
sources in Paris and some Belgian news agencies... That actually this | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
man whose name was issued may have been one of the bombers at the | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
airport who blew himself up. One of the suicide bombers. Not on the run | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
at all, but it is clear that one man from the trio of suspects who was | :09:22. | :09:25. | |
seen going into the airport before the taxes on the run and a very | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
wanted man at the moment. But the investigation and the Belgian | :09:32. | :09:34. | |
prosecutor have confirmed that two brothers were central to the attacks | :09:35. | :09:41. | |
yesterday. Khalid and Ibrahim el-Bakraoui, these brothers, one | :09:42. | :09:45. | |
attack the airport and one in the Metro and they seemed to be | :09:46. | :09:48. | |
absolutely central London are all sorts of connections between the | :09:49. | :09:51. | |
attackers who struck with such deadly force yesterday and the | :09:52. | :09:59. | |
attacks in Paris and its clear that the Belgian police, the Belgian | :10:00. | :10:02. | |
authorities, had underestimated the extent of the terror network, living | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
and preparing for attacks in the city. It seems remarkable, they may | :10:08. | :10:12. | |
have underestimated it, since the Paris attacks has been such focus on | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
the one area of Brussels, associated with radical Islam? Yes, areas like | :10:18. | :10:25. | |
Molenbeek, which is worse Salah Abdeslam was from and he was the one | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
that escape the Paris attacks and escaped to Belgium and he was | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
arrested on Friday in the heart of the Molenbeek area of Brussels. | :10:36. | :10:40. | |
Actually, just a few hundred yards from his family home, where he was | :10:41. | :10:44. | |
brought up and that arrest last Friday seems to have been pivotal in | :10:45. | :10:49. | |
what happened on Tuesday. In terms of the attacks. It's clear that | :10:50. | :10:56. | |
Salah Abdeslam was an accomplice of the men who attacked yesterday. And | :10:57. | :11:01. | |
that when they knew he had been arrested, it seems quite likely that | :11:02. | :11:06. | |
they decided that if he was being interrogated by the police and the | :11:07. | :11:10. | |
authorities in custody, he might give the police their names, their | :11:11. | :11:14. | |
addresses, information about their plans and so they decided that | :11:15. | :11:18. | |
perhaps they should go ahead with whatever attacks they had planned | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
and get on with them. We heard from the Belgian prosecutor in his | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
statement today, that one of the suicide bombers, Brahim el-Bakraoui. | :11:27. | :11:37. | |
He left a note, a last will and testament, I do not know what to do, | :11:38. | :11:41. | |
I am in a hurry, people are searching for me everywhere and if I | :11:42. | :11:45. | |
cell. In other words, he did not cell. In other words, he did not | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
want to be captured, he knew then net was closing after the arrest of | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
Salah Abdeslam last Friday and he thought that he would go on was | :11:56. | :11:58. | |
launching an attack. That is that the re-police are working on. Often | :11:59. | :12:04. | |
after attacks like these, the first 24-36 hours or about the grief and | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
mourning those who have been lost but there is a point when these | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
stories become political, I wonder if the country has reached that | :12:13. | :12:18. | |
point? I don't think possibly yet, I still think this is raw, quite | :12:19. | :12:23. | |
frankly. Look at the scene behind becoming you can see people who have | :12:24. | :12:28. | |
come to this square here in the heart of Brussels and this has | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
become a kind of focal point for the grieving, the morning. They are | :12:33. | :12:36. | |
lighting candles, there has been a vigil since yesterday. And | :12:37. | :12:40. | |
throughout the night. They are lighting candles, laying flowers, | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
holding up the Belgian flag, as you can see, behind me, there are | :12:46. | :12:50. | |
banners with slogans like United against hatred and there was in a's | :12:51. | :12:53. | |
silence here earlier today for the victims of the attacks and after | :12:54. | :12:59. | |
that, a lot of applause, singing, chanting and people wanting to say | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
that they won't be beaten by terror. Yes, there are politics and there | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
will be politics, particularly accusations against the Belgian | :13:09. | :13:12. | |
security services, did they fail with their intelligence again after | :13:13. | :13:15. | |
the Paris attacks and now these Brussels attacks? But I think | :13:16. | :13:19. | |
overall, the mood amongst the people is to mourn and grieve but also to | :13:20. | :13:24. | |
show the world and Islamic State that they will not be defeated and | :13:25. | :13:27. | |
they won't live their lives in fear. Thank you. Ben Brown live with us | :13:28. | :13:33. | |
from Brussels and to reiterate what we said earlier... This is not what | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
we were being told a couple of hours ago. Chris Morris, one of our | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
correspondence based in Brussels, to add of the three suspects seen on | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
CCTV remain unidentified, the man on the right is the one who is on the | :13:50. | :13:53. | |
run. Earlier we were told that we knew who to of the men were, now we | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
can say that, only the man in the middle, one of the brothers... We | :13:59. | :14:02. | |
can't be sure who the others are. We will spend most of the hour talking | :14:03. | :14:08. | |
about Brussels but we will take a few minutes to go to Washington | :14:09. | :14:11. | |
later. These two, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, making big strides | :14:12. | :14:15. | |
towards becoming the nominees of the US presidential election. | :14:16. | :14:22. | |
Two British students had been conveyed but of plotting dry by | :14:23. | :14:29. | |
terror attacks in London inspired by the Islamic State group. Suhaib | :14:30. | :14:35. | |
Majeed on the right was convicted of conspiracy to murder and preparation | :14:36. | :14:39. | |
of terrorist acts, the ringleader on the left, Tarik Hassane had pleaded | :14:40. | :14:45. | |
guilty to the same charges. In essence, what both these men were | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
said to have planned to carry out was a drive-by shooting on the | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
streets of West London. Not far from further grew up, they wanted to get | :14:53. | :14:58. | |
hold of a non-traceable mopeds, a gun am a silencer and ammunition, | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
identified targets which turned out potentially to be Shepherd's Bush | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
police station in the west of the capital and in nearby Territorial | :15:07. | :15:10. | |
Army base and in the autumn of 2014, carry out this attack from the back | :15:11. | :15:15. | |
of op-ed. The court heard that both men were effectively immersed in a | :15:16. | :15:21. | |
warped ideology of so-called Islamic State extremism. | :15:22. | :15:32. | |
We are alive at the BBC newsroom. The lead story... These brothers | :15:33. | :15:38. | |
have been identified as carrying out the Brussels bombing at the city's | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
airports and a Metro station. A look at the main stories from the BBC | :15:45. | :15:47. | |
World Service... Police in China after 1037 people in connection with | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
close to $90 million worth of vaccines being sold illegally. BBC | :15:53. | :15:59. | |
Chinese has that story. The new Chinese Finance Minister... Has a | :16:00. | :16:04. | |
fake degree in finance. He's admitted buying a bogus PhD online. | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
BBC Birmingham has the story. Lots of you watching this chase, to | :16:10. | :16:15. | |
recapture a zebra in Japan. Unfortunately it ended with its | :16:16. | :16:19. | |
death, was broadcast live on television, shot with a | :16:20. | :16:22. | |
tranquilliser dart but collapsed into a lake and died. That is on the | :16:23. | :16:24. | |
BBC news. Just as we are starting to learn | :16:25. | :16:33. | |
about the attackers in Brussels, we are also starting to learn about | :16:34. | :16:38. | |
their victims. The Belgian Health Minister visiting a hospital said | :16:39. | :16:39. | |
this earlier... If the images yesterday were of the | :16:40. | :16:55. | |
destruction created by the bombs, the images today are of the city | :16:56. | :17:02. | |
responding. Let's see some of the pictures coming in today. This is | :17:03. | :17:06. | |
King Philippe laying a wreath at the airport. You can see the King with | :17:07. | :17:10. | |
the Prime Minister of Belgium, visiting one of the 25 hospitals | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
where the injured are being treated. This is a little bit earlier. By the | :17:16. | :17:20. | |
Metro station attacked. Jean-Claude Juncker... Manuel Valls... The | :17:21. | :17:28. | |
French Prime Minister. Many people paying their respects in different | :17:29. | :17:31. | |
ways. The next report from Brussels comes from Lucy Williamson. She has | :17:32. | :17:35. | |
the stories of some of those caught up in the attacks. | :17:36. | :17:41. | |
Among the questions left by Tuesday's attacks is this one. | :17:42. | :17:43. | |
What happened to British IT contractor David Dixon? | :17:44. | :17:51. | |
After two days searching the hospitals here, his partner | :17:52. | :17:53. | |
David left for work yesterday as usual. | :17:54. | :17:56. | |
Maelbeek station was not far from his office. | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
After the explosion there at 9am, Charlotte tried to reach him. | :18:01. | :18:04. | |
270 people from dozens of countries are now known to have been injured | :18:05. | :18:24. | |
Inside this hospital, two British survivors lie | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
While their relatives wait for news, in a separate part of the hospital, | :18:30. | :18:38. | |
other families of other victims begin the grim process | :18:39. | :18:40. | |
Among the first deaths to be confirmed was 20-year-old Leopold | :18:41. | :18:51. | |
A law student at Saint Louis University here in Brussels. | :18:52. | :18:56. | |
And Peruvian Adelma Tapia Ruiz who died during the airport attack. | :18:57. | :18:59. | |
Her four-year-old twin girls survived the blast because they ran | :19:00. | :19:02. | |
Her brother described it as incomprehensible. | :19:03. | :19:10. | |
TRANSLATION: She had twins called Maureen and Elondra. | :19:11. | :19:13. | |
They were in the Brussels airport too. | :19:14. | :19:15. | |
They were connecting through to New York to meet | :19:16. | :19:17. | |
She also planned to come back to Peru this year, | :19:18. | :19:23. | |
Tonight in Brussels there is solidarity in Europe's anger | :19:24. | :19:30. | |
But terrorism's toughest challenge is private. | :19:31. | :19:38. | |
For some these were not just attacks on their home values | :19:39. | :19:41. | |
but on the people they love the most. | :19:42. | :19:43. | |
A reminder that all of the coverage from the BBC on the Brussels attacks | :19:44. | :20:02. | |
is being joined together and you can download it on your phone at any | :20:03. | :20:08. | |
time and contact the BBC News website. Let's take a moment to talk | :20:09. | :20:11. | |
about these two, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, both dry to win the | :20:12. | :20:18. | |
Republican and Democratic nominations for the US presidential | :20:19. | :20:22. | |
elections and they had a good day yesterday, winning the Arizona | :20:23. | :20:25. | |
primary is, there were carcasses in Utah and Idaho, one by Ted Cruz and | :20:26. | :20:31. | |
Bernie Sanders. But with all due respect, in terms of the elections, | :20:32. | :20:36. | |
they don't matter as much as Arizona which is why it was a good day for | :20:37. | :20:39. | |
Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. Look at the current rate... | :20:40. | :20:47. | |
All of that said... There was good news for Ted Cruz. A man closest to | :20:48. | :20:56. | |
Donald Trump. Here is Jeb Bush, spent a novel lot of money dry to | :20:57. | :21:00. | |
become the next President, he dropped out of the Republican race | :21:01. | :21:03. | |
and he has endorsed Ted Cruz saying... | :21:04. | :21:09. | |
The thing is, if I had if I had a pound for every person who said Ted | :21:10. | :21:21. | |
Cruz was divisive, I will be a rich man. This is the big irony, Ted Cruz | :21:22. | :21:25. | |
is becoming the establishment party picked to go up against mould Trump | :21:26. | :21:31. | |
and Jeb Bush and met Ronnie, are making the point that he is the only | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
hope, the only one with any kind of a chance, of if not catching Donald | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
Trump, denying him 1237 delegates to secure the nomination before the | :21:43. | :21:47. | |
convention. Will this carry political weight given the | :21:48. | :21:50. | |
criticisms that Jeb Bush handed out to Ted Cruz during his campaign? I | :21:51. | :21:55. | |
don't think it's going to move a lot of votes. Ted Cruz is the only one | :21:56. | :22:05. | |
who can possibly stop Trump... It could direct more money towards Ted | :22:06. | :22:09. | |
Cruz but this problem is not money, he has a fair amount of it, the only | :22:10. | :22:13. | |
thing it could do is put a nail in Eleanor Coughlan of the third | :22:14. | :22:16. | |
candidate still running, John Keswick. He tells everyone a move to | :22:17. | :22:25. | |
Ted Cruz will do my people. A quick word about Hillary Clinton, most | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
commentators seem to think he she is getting close to getting its own, | :22:30. | :22:33. | |
and Arizona Mark Immelman for her? It was definitely a big win for her. | :22:34. | :22:41. | |
She racked up such a big moment, she is continuing her march towards the | :22:42. | :22:44. | |
nomination, making up for losses in Idaho and Utah which had much fewer | :22:45. | :22:49. | |
delegates at stake. She is looking good and continuing to chip along. | :22:50. | :22:56. | |
Staying with American politics, President Obama moving from Cuba to | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
Argentina, the strip about trade but it's coinciding with the 40th | :23:01. | :23:04. | |
anniversary of the military coup in Argentina that installed a dictator. | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
That anniversary is creating extra issues. Here is a report from Buenos | :23:09. | :23:18. | |
Aires. This lady survived the dictatorship, her mother was | :23:19. | :23:21. | |
pregnant when she was arrested and tortured by the dictator. She was | :23:22. | :23:26. | |
born in prison, her father was arrested and detained, she never met | :23:27. | :23:31. | |
him. For victims of the dictatorship March the 24th 1976 remains a | :23:32. | :23:36. | |
traumatic date. A coup or not they marched the start of seven years of | :23:37. | :23:41. | |
state-sponsored terror. The US government initially supported the | :23:42. | :23:43. | |
Argentine military which systematically tortured, killed and | :23:44. | :23:47. | |
has appeared thousands of alleged opponents. Many of the survivors are | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
now questioning the US President's visit on the coup anniversary. | :23:53. | :23:57. | |
TRANSLATION: For us, he is not welcome. He is not simply President | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
Obama, he is the President of the United States, country that within | :24:04. | :24:07. | |
Latin America during the Cold War was directly behind dictatorship. We | :24:08. | :24:14. | |
don't like it. This man is an artist to survive the dictatorship. The | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
injection that was meant to put him to sleep before throwing him off a | :24:19. | :24:24. | |
plane was ready and international pressure led to a last-minute call | :24:25. | :24:32. | |
that turned back that death flights. TRANSLATION: He is the President of | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
the country that always tries to influence and colonise Latin | :24:38. | :24:41. | |
America. It is very unsettling that Barack Obama is visiting us on the | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
24th of March. It's an aggression against the Argentine people. The US | :24:46. | :24:52. | |
government has never apologised about its alleged involvement during | :24:53. | :24:56. | |
Argentina's dirty war. But ahead of the visit, it announced it would | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
declassify military and intelligence records of the dictatorship. On the | :25:03. | :25:08. | |
one hand we may not find information specifically on the US role in | :25:09. | :25:12. | |
supporting the dictatorship but on the other hand, the result is that | :25:13. | :25:16. | |
information can be found on specific cases of victims. And it will take | :25:17. | :25:21. | |
some time but we have seen the previous round of declassification | :25:22. | :25:27. | |
was very helpful in the trials here. President Obama will be here on the | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
anniversary of the cook recognising the victims of the dirty war may be | :25:32. | :25:36. | |
an important first step in healing the long-standing rift between the | :25:37. | :25:37. | |
United States and South America. In a couple of minutes we will turn | :25:38. | :25:48. | |
back to the Brussels attacks. Christian Fraser will explain how | :25:49. | :25:52. | |
some of those involved in these attacks are connected to some of | :25:53. | :25:55. | |
those who carried out the attacks in Paris. That is coming up in a | :25:56. | :25:57. | |
moment. | :25:58. | :25:59. |
