:01:24. > :01:30.Hello and welcome. President Obama has strongly condemned the crackdown

:01:30. > :01:33.on protestors in Egypt. He's cancelled joint military exercises

:01:33. > :01:37.wth Egypt, but has stopped short of withdrawing more than one billion

:01:37. > :01:48.dollars in annual military aid. Egypt's security forces remain

:01:48. > :01:54.defiant. My colleague Mishal Husain is in Cairo with the latest.

:01:54. > :01:58.Welcome to our live coverage from Cairo, where we are in the final

:01:58. > :02:04.hour before the night-time curfew begins again. People are hurrying to

:02:04. > :02:10.get home before that moment. Overall, it has been a very quiet

:02:10. > :02:13.day in Cairo. Very few people are on the streets, none of the usual

:02:13. > :02:19.traffic for which the city is infamous. It has also been a

:02:19. > :02:26.sobering day, as the death toll from Wednesday's clashes continues to

:02:26. > :02:30.mount. The vast majority of casualties have been on the side of

:02:30. > :02:38.the Muslim Brotherhood. At least 525 people I known to have died, about

:02:38. > :02:41.50 members of the security forces. The first funerals are taking

:02:41. > :02:46.place, and there are increasing fears about a Muslim Brotherhood

:02:46. > :02:51.backlash against what the military did. Already there has been some

:02:51. > :02:54.evidence from that both in churches that have been attacked and the

:02:54. > :03:00.torching of a government building on the outskirts of Cairo in Giza. This

:03:00. > :03:07.report from our correspondent here, James Reynolds.

:03:07. > :03:12.Every few minutes at the mosque, mourners bring out another body.

:04:38. > :04:42.defending his vote, defending his freedom, and they shot him with a

:04:42. > :04:50.bullet in his heart. The military and the police station snipers on

:04:50. > :04:52.the roots of the buildings. Many are still stunned by what has happened.

:04:52. > :05:07.This man lost his brother. In another part of Cairo, the police

:05:07. > :05:14.have buried their own dead. These mourners represent Egypt's other

:05:14. > :05:22.side. They are those who believe the military has saved the country from

:05:22. > :05:29.dictatorial Islamists rule. And some Islamists who have lost power have

:05:29. > :05:32.decided to fight back. In Cairo's suburb of Giza, supporters of the

:05:32. > :05:39.deposed president attacked local government buildings. They promise

:05:39. > :05:46.further demonstrations. James Reynolds, BBC News, Cairo.

:05:46. > :05:50.Overall opinion is divided about the military action, but that wouldn't

:05:50. > :05:54.have been the impression you got if you looked at the Egyptian

:05:54. > :05:58.newspapers today. There was a widespread view that the army had

:05:58. > :06:06.done the right thing. Around the world, there is increasing disquiet

:06:06. > :06:09.about the event in Egypt. President Obama cancelled military exercises,

:06:09. > :06:15.and is facing questions about American military aid to Egypt. And

:06:15. > :06:18.overall, there are also questions about whether Europe and the United

:06:18. > :06:27.States did enough to avert the bloodshed. James Robbins talks about

:06:27. > :06:32.the next steps for the Egyptian community.

:06:32. > :06:35.As the scale of the bloodshed in Egypt becomes clearer, earlier

:06:35. > :06:39.dreams of a country on a road to democracy based on consensus are in

:06:39. > :06:43.ruins. Governments around the world have wrestled with their own

:06:43. > :06:48.dilemmas - how to react, and whose side they are really on. So

:06:48. > :06:52.international pressure on Egypt's military has been very carefully

:06:52. > :06:57.considered. President Obama condemned the violence against

:06:57. > :07:02.civilians and cancelled joint military exercises due next month.

:07:02. > :07:10.We sustained our commitment to Egypt and its people. We want to sustain

:07:10. > :07:12.our relationship with Egypt, but our corporation cannot continue as usual

:07:12. > :07:15.when civilians are being killed in the street and right are being

:07:16. > :07:20.rolled back. But that does not mean the United

:07:20. > :07:23.States. Long-term funding for Egypt's military. It wants to keep

:07:23. > :07:25.Egypt as an Egypt's military. It wants to keep

:07:25. > :07:40.Middle East peace process. messages were delivered by many

:07:40. > :07:42.European governments. But the harder part is deciding whether any

:07:42. > :07:46.international sanctions should be applied. Back-ups suspending EE you

:07:46. > :07:51.aid and trade applied. Back-ups suspending EE you

:07:51. > :07:56.make a difference. Egypt's applied. Back-ups suspending EE you

:07:56. > :07:59.pressure applied in recent weeks applied. Back-ups suspending EE you

:07:59. > :08:07.to use force. It is applied. Back-ups suspending EE you

:08:07. > :08:13.around the world. What the Egyptian government did and the police is an

:08:13. > :08:19.obligation from any state towards its people, to defend their

:08:19. > :08:23.interests and to protect them. So where does this leave the Muslim

:08:23. > :08:31.Brotherhood, the main victims of the violence? Six weeks ago, when their

:08:31. > :08:35.president Morsi was deposed by the military, they were allowed to rally

:08:35. > :08:39.and demand his reinstatement. Now they have been driven off the

:08:39. > :08:45.streets, and a spokesman is warning that the bloodshed means that anger

:08:45. > :08:50.is beyond control. I have spent most of today at the

:08:50. > :08:56.Cairo mosque were the worst of that bloodshed took place, and the start

:08:56. > :09:02.of the day proved it very hard to find people prepared to cheer on the

:09:02. > :09:05.military police. But as the day went on, the mood did shift, and there

:09:05. > :09:10.were people who came forward to talk to us and express their disquiet

:09:10. > :09:13.about the violence and the bloodshed, and one woman said that

:09:14. > :09:18.although she was of the Muslim Brotherhood, she had been in the

:09:18. > :09:22.camp, and she said, so what if they spend six weeks there. Even if they

:09:22. > :09:28.spend two years there, they didn't deserve to die. So these are

:09:28. > :09:32.volatile and emotional times for many Egyptians. There is continuing

:09:33. > :09:34.coverage on the BBC website, and we will have more from Cairo as well

:09:34. > :09:44.later on in the day. Mishal Husain there for us in Cairo.

:09:45. > :09:48.We will of course keep you across every development in Egypt. If

:09:48. > :09:51.you're away from the TV, you can get more on the latest developments from

:09:51. > :09:54.the BBC News website. You'll find the latest video and analysis from

:09:54. > :10:00.our correspondents, and hear from many Egyptians and regional

:10:00. > :10:02.specialists as well. For all that and much more, just go to

:10:02. > :10:21.bbc.com/egypt. Now, it's a question that has vexed

:10:21. > :10:24.the international community for months. Who's been using chemical

:10:24. > :10:27.weapons in Syria, and where? After claim and counter-claim, we may

:10:27. > :10:30.finally be about to get some answers. A United Nations inspection

:10:30. > :10:33.team is expected to head for Syria within the next few days. They'll

:10:34. > :10:36.spend up to two weeks looking at various sites, including one near

:10:36. > :10:44.Aleppo where each side accuses the other of deploying chemical weapons.

:10:44. > :10:48.The number of people from Romania and Bulgaria working in the UK has

:10:48. > :10:50.risen by a quarter in three months. 141,000 migrants from the two

:10:50. > :10:52.countries were employed here between April and June this year. Next year

:10:52. > :10:57.the laws restricting the type of April and June this year. Next year

:10:57. > :11:00.can apply for will be relaxed. Thousands more migrants could seek

:11:00. > :11:06.work in Britain. Our home affairs correspondent Alex Forsyth reports.

:11:06. > :11:09.It is a way to earn a living. For Romanians and Bulgarians such as

:11:09. > :11:10.these, fruit picking and farming in the UK pays better than work they

:11:10. > :11:20.would get at home. the UK pays better than work they

:11:20. > :11:27.have 80p per hour. In England, £6.21. It is a huge difference.

:11:27. > :11:28.have 80p per hour. In England, it is not just

:11:28. > :11:33.have 80p per hour. In England, construction workers have come here

:11:33. > :11:34.have 80p per hour. In England, because it is full of opportunities

:11:34. > :11:50.for young generations. number of workers from any other

:11:51. > :11:55.country. There number of workers from any other

:11:55. > :12:01.Romanians and Bulgarians employed in the UK between April and June of

:12:01. > :12:05.this year. That is a 35% increase from the same time last year. They

:12:05. > :12:09.have had the right for Visa free travel since 2007, when their

:12:09. > :12:15.countries joined the U. But they have to have a permanent to work or

:12:15. > :12:20.be -- a permit to work, or be part of a government agreed scheme. These

:12:20. > :12:22.restrictions will be lifted at the end of the year, raising concerns

:12:22. > :12:31.that thousands more could come to Britain. We already have a rapidly

:12:31. > :12:37.growing population. A new city the size of Birmingham every two and a

:12:37. > :12:41.half years comes in. It is not just Britain relaxing its rules. Eight

:12:41. > :12:45.other countries are also lifting restrictions on Rumania and

:12:45. > :12:49.Bulgarian workers. Some say it is a different picture now from when ten

:12:49. > :12:57.countries, including Poland, joined the EU in 2004. Some figures tell us

:12:57. > :13:02.that there will be a big immigration from those countries. But on the

:13:02. > :13:06.other hand, they have been having access for seven years, so it may be

:13:06. > :13:09.the case that it won't be that big. The Home Office is planning to

:13:10. > :13:14.restrict my grid access to some public services to address wider

:13:14. > :13:19.concerns over the impact of all immigration. Despite calls from

:13:19. > :13:23.Labour, the government won't predict how many Romanians and Bulgarians

:13:23. > :13:27.will come to the UK when the labour market is fully opened. It says it

:13:27. > :13:32.is too speculative, and they will only know for sure once the rules

:13:32. > :13:41.change in January. With me now in the studio is Heather

:13:41. > :13:44.Rolfe, a specialist on migration from the National Institute of

:13:44. > :13:49.economic and social research here in the UK. It is often an emotive

:13:49. > :13:57.issue. People are worried that migration might snatch jobs or be a

:13:57. > :14:03.burden on services. In the case of these Romanian and Bulgarian

:14:03. > :14:14.workers, is that the case? What we have done is we have looked at the

:14:14. > :14:15.impact on services of migration from other Eastern European countries,

:14:15. > :14:18.principally Poland, and what we found there is that the impact is

:14:18. > :14:20.relatively small on health and education, on housing and on

:14:20. > :14:23.benefits. And the reason for that is that migrants from those countries

:14:23. > :14:30.are young, healthy, they come here to work. They don't come here to

:14:30. > :14:34.claim benefits or take up social housing. So by their very nature,

:14:34. > :14:38.they are light users of services. So it is unlikely in that context that

:14:38. > :14:42.future migration from Bulgaria and Romania will have

:14:42. > :14:45.future migration from Bulgaria and services. What about their presence

:14:45. > :14:48.in the country? How long do these young migrant workers tend to stay?

:14:48. > :14:55.Is a long-term? young migrant workers tend to stay?

:14:55. > :14:58.screaming about large numbers of Polish migrant workers

:14:58. > :15:06.screaming about large numbers of and Bulgarian workers.

:15:06. > :15:08.screaming about large numbers of difficulties in the UK with

:15:08. > :15:22.screaming about large numbers of migration statistics. We

:15:22. > :15:24.screaming about large numbers of they leave. Sometimes they come for

:15:24. > :15:30.short periods to raise funds for home, but others do end up staying.

:15:31. > :15:37.The impact on services is greater if people

:15:37. > :15:38.The impact on services is greater if to the UK economy in taxes is that

:15:38. > :15:41.much greater, to the UK economy in taxes is that

:15:41. > :15:46.a lot of migrant workers working key public services. Some of the

:15:46. > :15:50.increase we have seen in Bulgaria in remaining migration might be a good

:15:50. > :15:53.news story, because they are filling vacancies in hard to fill areas.

:15:53. > :16:01.Heather Rolfe, thank you very much indeed. A short time ago, a large

:16:01. > :16:07.explosion was felt across the southern suburbs of Beirut.

:16:07. > :16:12.Officials are saying that 14 people have been killed and over 200

:16:12. > :16:20.wounded. It engulfed several cars in flames and trapped people in a

:16:20. > :16:25.nearby building. It is centred in the southern suburbs of Beirut. The

:16:25. > :16:34.area is a stronghold of the group, Hezbollah. We can speak to Jim, who

:16:34. > :16:41.is in Beirut. Jim, what is the latest that we know? What was the

:16:41. > :16:46.intended target? We don't know if there was a specific target, but as

:16:46. > :16:50.you can see behind me, the smoke is still going up several hours after

:16:50. > :17:00.the explosion took place. It was big. The buildings on both sides of

:17:00. > :17:05.the road were set on fire and are still burning. They have been for

:17:05. > :17:14.some hours with fire engines piling in to pour water into those fires.

:17:14. > :17:20.In extinguishing them as of yet. We are told that perhaps 100 or more

:17:20. > :17:24.casualties altogether, there are different figures, some are saying

:17:24. > :17:32.12 are killed, some are saying 20 or more. As I say, no word on a

:17:32. > :17:37.specific target, but this is the southern suburbs of Beirut, it is a

:17:37. > :17:41.Hezbollah stronghold, it's doesn't will openly, but it is the Power

:17:41. > :17:48.behind-the-scenes and this is the latest in a of attacks on this area.

:17:48. > :17:53.There was a car bomb, a couple of rocket attacks, but this is the most

:17:53. > :17:58.deadly and serious so far. This is what he had in mind when he says he

:17:58. > :18:02.was willing to bear the consequences of the involvement of his forces

:18:02. > :18:06.alongside Syrian Government troops in the war there, because nobody

:18:06. > :18:14.here doubts that this is what this is about. What is the feeling on the

:18:15. > :18:20.streets there, at the moment, that this assumption that it is linked to

:18:21. > :18:25.Hezbollah's role in Syria? People must be concerned, there are

:18:25. > :18:27.apartment blocks nearby. Absolutely, this is a densely

:18:27. > :18:33.populated area and Absolutely, this is a densely

:18:33. > :18:39.doubt that this is about has bowler and Syria. Hezbollah's men were all

:18:39. > :18:43.over the streets after the explosion, trying to get to the fire

:18:43. > :18:45.over the streets after the and controlling traffic. They

:18:45. > :18:51.over the streets after the the Power behind-the-scenes. They

:18:51. > :18:51.over the streets after the the official services, but they are

:18:51. > :19:05.the main force here. the official services, but they are

:19:05. > :19:12.the Syria -- Syrian regime. There are many

:19:12. > :19:13.the Syria -- Syrian regime. There its strongholds and that seems to be

:19:13. > :19:23.what is happening now. There has its strongholds and that seems to be

:19:23. > :19:26.scale, now it is getting bigger and nobody really believes that is the

:19:26. > :19:30.end of it as the war in Syria goes on and it is

:19:30. > :19:36.the day and says more spill over here.

:19:36. > :19:41.Motorists trying to cross from Spain into Gibraltar have faced

:19:41. > :19:43.Motorists trying to cross yet more queues - as long as four

:19:43. > :19:47.hours at one point today. The Spanish Foreign Ministry says the

:19:47. > :19:48.checks are necessary in the wake of increased

:19:48. > :19:51.checks are necessary in the wake of border. But it comes at a time of

:19:51. > :19:57.increasing diplomatic tension between the Spanish and British

:19:57. > :20:03.governments. We can now speak to Tom Burridge who is in Gibraltar. Tom,

:20:03. > :20:06.what is the reaction of the Spanish Government when the British

:20:06. > :20:11.Government says it may have to take legal action over this? The Spanish

:20:11. > :20:15.Government say they are not worry about that, they say the checks down

:20:15. > :20:20.on the border here are necessary. Let's show you the geography of this

:20:20. > :20:25.part of the world. Down here to the left is Gibraltar town, a town of

:20:25. > :20:33.around 30,000 people, a mix of nationalities. British Gibraltarians

:20:33. > :20:38.make up the vast majority. If we go backwards, you can see the small

:20:38. > :20:45.airport, a landing strip here with about five flights per day. If we

:20:45. > :20:52.then zoom in on the border and beyond that is mainland Spain, if

:20:52. > :20:58.you go into the border, you can see the evening to use. Delays going out

:20:58. > :21:03.the seasoning. This morning, it is at about four hours, now the delays

:21:03. > :21:07.are at about two hours going out. More than normal. This is a

:21:07. > :21:12.diplomatic row. Spain and Britain seem to be a long way apart in

:21:12. > :21:17.resolving this. The Gibraltarian Government say that essentially they

:21:17. > :21:24.are not willing to compromise in any way in Spain over the disputed

:21:24. > :21:31.waters. If we zoom out, you can see mainland Spain and the border town

:21:31. > :21:38.there. If we go left, you can begin to see what Spain deems to be their

:21:38. > :21:43.waters. Gibraltar say the waters nearby are theirs. That is the crux

:21:43. > :21:47.of this dispute. The Gibraltarian Government has put a concrete grief

:21:48. > :21:56.into a spot in the waters there and Spain say that Gibraltar acted

:21:56. > :21:59.unilaterally. I think this has become a much wider dispute is now.

:22:00. > :22:06.There are lots of issues, including smuggling. The Gibraltarian

:22:06. > :22:16.Government maintains that the smuggling dispute is a smoke screen.

:22:16. > :22:20.Exactly. There is a sense of cynicism from the British side and

:22:20. > :22:22.the Spanish side that these could be two governments who are trying to

:22:22. > :22:26.make headlines and win two governments who are trying to

:22:26. > :22:28.support. That is at a time their populations may be turning

:22:28. > :22:34.away from them, their populations may be turning

:22:34. > :22:39.perhaps also that the British Prime their populations may be turning

:22:39. > :22:42.Minister is looking for some support with a bit of cheap nationalism. You

:22:42. > :22:47.are right. The Gibraltarian with a bit of cheap nationalism. You

:22:47. > :22:50.that the Spanish Government is with a bit of cheap nationalism. You

:22:50. > :22:53.the issue of Gibraltar to with a bit of cheap nationalism. You

:22:53. > :22:56.attention from firstly a corruption with a bit of cheap nationalism. You

:22:56. > :23:03.party, the ruling party, and also with a bit of cheap nationalism. You

:23:03. > :23:07.in the Eurozone crisis. It is an accusation

:23:07. > :23:09.in the Eurozone crisis. It is an strongly denies. Over in Spain,

:23:09. > :23:11.in the Eurozone crisis. It is an should say. You have to put a bit of
