:01:14. > :01:18.ElBaradei, has condemned all violence following the deaths of at

:01:26. > :01:29.negotiator says Egypt is in dire need of reconciliation. The army
:01:29. > :01:32.says it opened fire because terrorists were attempting to storm
:01:32. > :01:35.a building. The Muslim Brotherhood, on the other hand, says its
:01:35. > :01:39.supporters were fired on without warning, and it has called on
:01:39. > :01:45.Egyptians to rise up against those who it says want to steal the
:01:45. > :01:49.revolution. Jim Muir is in Cairo for us. Jim, as you would expect, very
:01:49. > :01:54.differing accounts, lots of new lines coming in from Cairo in the
:01:54. > :01:57.last few hours, what are the most important developments? Well, I
:01:58. > :02:02.think the important thing really is the impact of all of this. Obviously
:02:02. > :02:06.feelings are running very high, it was already a very polarised and
:02:06. > :02:10.very bitter stand-off, but there were political efforts to try to
:02:10. > :02:14.pull it together, to get agreement and consensus on an interim Prime
:02:14. > :02:18.Minister, for example. You mentioned Mohamed ElBaradei there. But that
:02:18. > :02:22.had already running to problems, and this will be an even bigger
:02:22. > :02:27.problem. Practically, it has derailed those efforts to try to
:02:28. > :02:32.find a political way forward out of this crisis. The country needs to
:02:32. > :02:39.stabilise and try to get some economic progress, because it is in
:02:39. > :02:42.a very dire state. Now, Mr Mallard Paradise itself has said that Egypt
:02:42. > :02:45.is in the direst need of reconciliation, and he called for a
:02:45. > :02:49.full investigation into the shootings. We are hearing that 40
:02:49. > :02:55.people have been killed, there will be funerals, more passion, more
:02:55. > :02:57.feelings rising, more bitterness and so on. And of course the Muslim
:02:57. > :03:03.Brotherhood's political party has called for what it calls an
:03:03. > :03:06.uprising, or at least it has called on people to rise up against efforts
:03:06. > :03:11.by the military to steal, as they put it, the revolution from the
:03:11. > :03:13.people. Feelings are running extremely high, and they have been
:03:13. > :03:18.very much aggravated by what happened in the early hours of this
:03:18. > :03:25.morning. Is this going to be seen as a direct call to violent protest?
:03:25. > :03:29.No, I would say not, and ostensibly not, but that is not to say does not
:03:29. > :03:33.going to happen. They say they are entirely peaceful in their
:03:33. > :03:37.intentions, and there is some video you can see some of their young
:03:37. > :03:41.supporters hurling firebombs. There are one or two bits of footage which
:03:41. > :03:46.show people with guns, at least one or two people with guns mingling
:03:46. > :03:50.with the protesting crowds of Morsi supporters. But they are not really
:03:50. > :03:54.calling for an armed uprising, no. However, they warning it could come
:03:54. > :03:59.to a Syrian style situation if things continue to get worse and if
:03:59. > :04:03.there is no intervention by, I suppose, political parties, but
:04:03. > :04:08.also, looking to the outside world to put pressure on the new powers
:04:08. > :04:12.that be, to try to stop this slide towards what could become some kind
:04:12. > :04:15.of Civil War. That is at least the warnings that are going out, but
:04:15. > :04:22.they are not calling for an armed uprising, at least on the face of
:04:22. > :04:28.it. What outside intervention could there be? We have seen the
:04:28. > :04:31.Salafists saying they are pulling out of talks, struggling to find a
:04:31. > :04:34.interim Prime Minister in this political vacuum. There is a
:04:34. > :04:38.dangerous political vacuum, and this is why there is pressure building up
:04:38. > :04:42.to do something about that. When the Muslim Brotherhood's party, Freedom
:04:42. > :04:45.and Justice Party, called on the outside world, they may be thinking
:04:45. > :04:49.of the Americans, who have leverage over the Egyptian military because
:04:49. > :04:53.they have more than $1 billion pouring into the Egyptian military
:04:53. > :04:57.every year, to try to use that. But as I say, there are lots of voices,
:04:58. > :05:01.people like Mr ElBaradei, and so on, calling for a political solution,
:05:01. > :05:04.saying that violence is not the way forward. So there will be a lot of
:05:05. > :05:08.efforts going on behind the scenes to try to pull it back from the
:05:08. > :05:13.brink, really, and try to find some formula to pull the Muslim
:05:13. > :05:16.Brotherhood back into the political fold, framework, because at the
:05:16. > :05:20.moment they may not be a majority in the country, but they have a lot of
:05:20. > :05:24.support, and when blood is shed like this, obviously support tends to
:05:24. > :05:29.grow, because people wield very strong outrage about the killing of
:05:29. > :05:34.people in the streets of Cairo. Thanks very much, Jim Muir.
:05:34. > :05:39.It has emerged that the pilot of a passenger jet which crashed at San
:05:39. > :05:43.Francisco airport was being trained in how to fly a Boeing 777. The
:05:43. > :05:48.pilot was highly experienced, but he had less than 50 hours flying time
:05:48. > :05:52.on a 777 and had never landed one at San Francisco before. 108 people

:06:04. > :06:06.authorities. Peter Bowes reports. It is miraculous that 305 out of the
:06:06. > :06:11.307 passengers and crewmembers on board this plane managed to escape
:06:11. > :06:15.with their lives. Survivors of the crash have been reliving the moment
:06:15. > :06:21.that the Boeing 777 crash landed and skidded to a standstill at San
:06:21. > :06:25.Francisco airport. It was this belief, a bit of chaos, but I think
:06:25. > :06:29.we managed to get everyone to calm down quickly and started getting
:06:29. > :06:37.out, not pushing each other and stepping on each other. So it felt
:06:37. > :06:42.like it went really fast. It was a pretty hard kind of landing. You
:06:42. > :06:47.know, there was a load my eyes and the whole plane shook. Something
:06:47. > :06:53.terrible had gone wrong. -- a loud noise. 19 people in hospital, six
:06:53. > :06:56.critical. The two teenage girls who died were Chinese nationals.
:06:56. > :07:00.According to education authorities in China, at least 70 students and
:07:00. > :07:05.teachers were on the plane heading to summer camp in the US. Because of
:07:05. > :07:11.the crash still is not known, but airline says it does not believe
:07:11. > :07:16.there was a mechanical failure. -- the cause. TRANSLATION: We bought
:07:16. > :07:21.this plane in March 2006, so we acknowledge there were no problems
:07:21. > :07:24.with the plane or its engines. The three pilots of veterans with
:07:24. > :07:29.experience of more than 10,000 flight hours.
:07:29. > :07:32.Human error has not been ruled out. The pilots will be the focus of an
:07:32. > :07:35.investigation by the American transport safety board. Officials
:07:35. > :07:41.from the federal agency have been combing through the records. They
:07:41. > :07:44.have also examined the black boxes. Preliminary findings from the flight
:07:44. > :07:49.data recorder show that the aeroplane was travelling

:08:06. > :08:12.any aircraft anomalies or concerns with the approach. A call from one
:08:12. > :08:19.of the crewmembers to increase speed was made approximately seven seconds
:08:19. > :08:22.prior to impact. And 1.5 seconds before impact, someone can be heard
:08:22. > :08:28.on the cockpit voice recorder calling for the landing to be
:08:28. > :08:34.aborted. Well, there has been another plane
:08:34. > :08:39.crashed in the US, this time in Alaska. Police say an egg taxi
:08:39. > :08:42.crashed at Soldotna airport, killing all ten people on board. It is

:09:32. > :09:37.one of these tankers contained tens of thousands of litres of oil. The
:09:37. > :09:43.devastation unleashed is plain to see. Buildings were incinerated, a
