:01:12. > :01:16.The French authorities say the extremist who is suspected
:01:17. > :01:19.of having organised last Friday's massacre in Paris is dead.
:01:20. > :01:21.Abdelhamid Abaaoud was killed in the massive police offensive
:01:22. > :01:23.on a flat in northern Paris before dawn on Wednesday.
:01:24. > :01:26.Officials say his body was found riddled with bullets and shrapnel.
:01:27. > :01:28.He was identified by his fingerprints.
:01:29. > :01:30.In France, in Belgium and beyond, security operations continue to hunt
:01:31. > :01:36.And across Europe, police and intelligence services are
:01:37. > :01:39.being given extra resources, while in Syria
:01:40. > :01:44.and Iraq the military assault on the so called Islamic State continues.
:01:45. > :02:00.Good evening from the city of Paris were the sound of sirens
:02:01. > :02:04.reverberates again around here. So much police activity over the course
:02:05. > :02:10.of the last week and around the country, 106 grades in all but it
:02:11. > :02:13.was the one yesterday that was the main focus because intelligence told
:02:14. > :02:19.police that it was an apartment in that suburb in which they might find
:02:20. > :02:22.the ringleader Friday's attacks, Abdelhamid Abaaoud. The prosecutor
:02:23. > :02:27.last night was not able to confirm he was there but today we have the
:02:28. > :02:30.news that he was. They found a body, they tested the fingerprints and
:02:31. > :02:34.although the body was riddled with bullets and shrapnel, he said they
:02:35. > :02:39.were confident that they could identify the body as Abdelhamid
:02:40. > :02:43.Abaaoud. He is a 28-year-old Belgian of Moroccan nationality. It will be
:02:44. > :02:47.some relief to the police that they have managed to find the ringleader
:02:48. > :02:51.after such a hard week but perhaps a concern to the French public that
:02:52. > :02:56.even after Friday's attacks here is a man that was swaggering and still
:02:57. > :03:02.walking around this suburb in full view of the public. Here is our
:03:03. > :03:04.European correspondent. Sifting for clues, all day police
:03:05. > :03:07.teams have been searching for clues. With the aid of DNA tests,
:03:08. > :03:10.they now know the man they were hunting was killed here. It is not
:03:11. > :03:13.clear if he died as the police stormed the flat or blew himself up.
:03:14. > :03:16.Speaking today, the French Prime Minister announced the news to the
:03:17. > :03:22.nation. TRANSLATION: We know today that
:03:23. > :03:29.Abdelhamid Abaaoud, the brains behind the attack, or one of the
:03:30. > :03:32.brains, because we have to be extremely cautious, was among those
:03:33. > :03:43.killed. The death of Abdelhamid Abaaoud has
:03:44. > :03:47.also been confirmed on social media sites linked to the Islamic State
:03:48. > :03:53.group. What made trouble French police is locals in Saint-Denis was
:03:54. > :03:56.are saying he was seen openly following the Paris attacks. It
:03:57. > :04:01.seems he felt safe and unconcerned. This is believed to be his cousin,
:04:02. > :04:05.thought to be the woman who blew herself up in the apartment.
:04:06. > :04:12.Upstairs was another man who says he exchanged hellos with her. She was
:04:13. > :04:16.dressed in jeans and trainers, nothing out of the ordinary.
:04:17. > :04:24.TRANSLATION: I could never have imagined she was a suicide bomber. I
:04:25. > :04:27.was stunned after it happened. It is scary. They could be anywhere. Seven
:04:28. > :04:34.men and one woman were arrested by police during the raid. There is
:04:35. > :04:37.much evidence for French anti-terrorist teams to sift
:04:38. > :04:42.through. Among it, new security camera footage of the attacks on the
:04:43. > :04:48.cafes. Diners scramble for cover as glass shatters all around. The
:04:49. > :05:00.attacker then walks up to the door and his gun jams as he tries to
:05:01. > :05:04.shoot a woman lying at his feet. The man moved on and she made her
:05:05. > :05:07.escape. Inside, a minute or so later, once the coast was clear,
:05:08. > :05:10.people emerged from under the tables and in the corners where they had
:05:11. > :05:13.hidden. And, of the three suicide bombers at the Stade de France, it
:05:14. > :05:18.seems one may have had second thoughts. A new witness has told us
:05:19. > :05:22.a man was inside the restaurant, in the toilets.
:05:23. > :05:27.TRANSLATION: I found myself face with someone who was sweating all
:05:28. > :05:31.over his face, profusely. He looked worried, anguished, like he was
:05:32. > :05:39.asking himself lots of questions. He was staring at himself in the
:05:40. > :05:44.mirror. Seconds later, the man walked out of the restaurant and
:05:45. > :05:51.blew himself up, outside but not among the diners. The man who may
:05:52. > :05:54.have orchestrated such terror is gone but the risks to France remain.
:05:55. > :05:58.The confirmation that Abdelhamid Abaaoud was inside that
:05:59. > :06:03.building means that one threat France -based has been eliminated.
:06:04. > :06:06.What it does not change is the fact the general threat level for this
:06:07. > :06:09.country and right across Europe has escalated dramatically, both in
:06:10. > :06:28.terms of the number of possible And we know from the French
:06:29. > :06:33.authorities that the list of known radicals and fanatics here in France
:06:34. > :06:38.is quite extensive. They call it the list that they the Interior Ministry
:06:39. > :06:42.and there are 10,000 names on it, all to a varying degree, some have
:06:43. > :06:46.direct links to Syria and others have looked at the deals that you
:06:47. > :06:50.can see from that list, the enormity of what the intelligence services
:06:51. > :06:55.face here in France and with that in mind, the politicians were asked to
:06:56. > :06:59.consider today extending the emergency powers for three months,
:07:00. > :07:18.not surprisingly, only six MPs voted against it and back gives the police
:07:19. > :07:20.sweeping powers. They are able to raid homes without judicial order,
:07:21. > :07:23.they are able to tap phones, look at data and it is that ability to look
:07:24. > :07:26.at data that they now have that led them, we believe, to camp one. The
:07:27. > :07:28.discovery of the ring leader will raise questions and they were
:07:29. > :07:39.talking about it today, how this man was able to travel to Syria from
:07:40. > :07:42.Belgium -- temp one. Our security correspondent has been looking at
:07:43. > :08:09.that issue and where the investigation might go from here --
:08:10. > :08:14.Abdelhamid Abaaoud. They had elements of the same plan.
:08:15. > :08:18.Abdelhamid Abaaoud himself claimed he narrowly escaped capture of
:08:19. > :08:25.terror this police raid in January which disrupted and major gun attack
:08:26. > :08:29.and killed two accomplices. This may well have marked our major missed
:08:30. > :08:33.opportunity to stop him planning and organising another even larger
:08:34. > :08:36.attack. Abdelhamid Abaaoud claimed he escaped Belgium in January and
:08:37. > :08:43.went back to Syria. He then appears to have got back into Europe again
:08:44. > :08:48.perhaps via Greece. The investigation. His ability to
:08:49. > :08:59.travel. Failure to track him was
:09:00. > :09:02.a costly one. three cars were used, all rented
:09:03. > :09:05.in Belgium, the base for the plot. At the Bataclan Theatre,
:09:06. > :09:08.a VW Polo was found. Eyewitnesses told the BBC they saw
:09:09. > :09:11.a group of suspicious men in its This Renault was used
:09:12. > :09:20.by the suicide bombers who attacked The last vehicle was abandoned,
:09:21. > :09:25.used by the three-man team that Two men who use a car are still
:09:26. > :09:39.on the run. French security services have been
:09:40. > :09:41.using CCTV in form Phone records led them to this
:09:42. > :09:45.apartment, one of at least two used as a safe
:09:46. > :09:49.house in the run-up to the attack. The raid
:09:50. > :09:53.in Saint-Denis yesterday claimed came after witnesses
:09:54. > :10:04.placed him there and not in Syria. The cell may have been planning
:10:05. > :10:07.a second wave of attacks. Today, the head of German security
:10:08. > :10:10.services told the BBC that all The threat situation
:10:11. > :10:14.is very serious. We have to assume something
:10:15. > :10:18.like Paris can happen any time, whether in Paris, Brussels,
:10:19. > :10:21.Berlin or London. Signs are that concerned in Italy
:10:22. > :10:34.today where there was an alert on the Metro and after the
:10:35. > :10:37.American FBI passed on warnings. Another sign of Europe,
:10:38. > :10:47.not just France, remains on edge. It is a rainy night here in Paris,
:10:48. > :10:51.quite miserable the weather, but you can still see people coming out to
:10:52. > :10:59.contemplate the flowers and the candles. They are laying their own
:11:00. > :11:03.messages here. Two women there. We have seen emotional scenes here
:11:04. > :11:08.throughout the day. I saw one couple in tears as they were reading the
:11:09. > :11:12.messages and I am sure as the week anniversary approaches, families
:11:13. > :11:17.will come here. We will see quite emotional things tomorrow and
:11:18. > :11:21.security will be stepped up and be very tight as well as people focus
:11:22. > :11:25.on word they were last week as they headed out at the end of the busy
:11:26. > :11:33.working week to the bars and the stadium. Still some questions for
:11:34. > :11:38.police. We understand there was a third body in that raid yesterday
:11:39. > :11:44.buried under the rubble. Who is that? Does it mean that there is a
:11:45. > :11:50.suspect still on the run or was that the body of a suspect? That will be
:11:51. > :11:56.pertinent to the Belgian authorities who say they still have a manhunt
:11:57. > :12:02.underway in Brussels. Let us speak to our correspondent who was in
:12:03. > :12:08.Brussels. More rates today and more arrests. Nine raids and nine
:12:09. > :12:12.arrests, seven of those arrests connected to an investigation into
:12:13. > :12:16.one of the Paris attackers but in fact connected to his travels to
:12:17. > :12:23.Syria earlier this year, two of the nine arrests connected directly to
:12:24. > :12:28.the attacks in Paris almost one week ago. No more detail from the Belgian
:12:29. > :12:35.prosecutor 's office but as you say, what is clear is that Salah Abdeslam
:12:36. > :12:47.is in Belgium and is in Brussels and that is where their hunt is
:12:48. > :12:50.continuing. Whether or not it is Molenbeek or not we do not know.
:12:51. > :12:54.There is not an overt security presence in Molenbeek at the moment
:12:55. > :12:58.but we do know they are searching for him and they believe he is in
:12:59. > :13:01.the country and there are rumours circulating on websites and social
:13:02. > :13:07.media about various different sightings as well. We'll have to
:13:08. > :13:10.wait and see what happens but they clearly believe he is in the
:13:11. > :13:14.country. Reporting in Molenbeek as I was earlier in the week and you have
:13:15. > :13:23.been there all art, it strikes me that there is this network there to
:13:24. > :13:27.support the likes of the brother of Salah Abdeslam and himself. There is
:13:28. > :13:30.a culture of secrecy that information is not shared within the
:13:31. > :13:37.Muslim community and that is a problem for the Belgian authorities.
:13:38. > :13:40.It is a big problem. There is a culture of secrecy, Molenbeek is
:13:41. > :13:45.pretty much in the heart of Brussels, in the north-west of the
:13:46. > :13:48.city, but parts of it feel very different and clearly younger people
:13:49. > :13:53.there, second generation immigrants in general feel that they are not
:13:54. > :13:57.part of the society in Brussels or the Belgian society that traditional
:13:58. > :14:03.forms of authority, parental, or security, or nothing to do with them
:14:04. > :14:07.and that does create a problem. You can walk around Molenbeek and you
:14:08. > :14:14.feel relatively safe, it does not feel like the suburbs around Paris,
:14:15. > :14:18.it is not as violent or difficult as that. Beyond the doors, the curtains
:14:19. > :14:23.that you come up against, you have to wonder what is going on, clearly
:14:24. > :14:27.the Belgian security services have tremendous difficulty penetrating
:14:28. > :14:29.that and Belgian ministers have acknowledged those difficulties.
:14:30. > :14:34.They have pretty much acknowledged that in some senses, in that
:14:35. > :14:37.commune, that neighbourhood, it is out of their control and begin at
:14:38. > :14:41.how the human intelligence to penetrate the plots that have sprung
:14:42. > :14:48.up time and time again from this one small commune in Northwest Brussels.
:14:49. > :14:53.Thank you Berry much. Jonny Diamond in Brussels. The manhunt for Salah
:14:54. > :14:57.Abdeslam is still very much in play in Belgium and the network that
:14:58. > :15:09.supported him, very much in focus as well. He was a brief look at some of
:15:10. > :15:12.the other news. The Russian Foreign Minister said the Paris attacks have
:15:13. > :15:15.helped western countries understand that the
:15:16. > :15:16.priority in Syria is to fight Islamic State.

:15:24. > :15:27.Mr Lavrov stressed that the Syrian conflict could not be resolved
:15:28. > :15:29.peacefully without the involvement of President Assad.

:18:30. > :18:31.To see this in this antibiotic is particularly

:19:11. > :19:25.Let's talk to one of Britain's leading experts on this subject -
:19:26. > :19:27.Professor Timothy Walsh from the University of Cardiff is
:19:28. > :19:38.He had stayed up late. Thank you very much. Do you think this really
:19:39. > :19:46.is a dramatic development, people are talking about it being
:19:47. > :19:49.apocalyptic news? Yes, I think most of the watchers and listeners would
:19:50. > :19:54.be desensitised because this kind of scenario has been in the press for a
:19:55. > :20:01.few years, but this is a bit of a game-changer, because we were always
:20:02. > :20:06.relying on that drug to treat serious infections and although some
:20:07. > :20:11.bacteria to become resistant to colistin, it is usually a burden to
:20:12. > :20:17.the organism and we never thought that the resistance would be able to
:20:18. > :20:21.be passed from one bug to another and so it took us really by surprise
:20:22. > :20:27.that this mechanism in fact could become mobile and in fact it seems
:20:28. > :20:31.to have spread very rapidly throughout different bacterial
:20:32. > :20:35.populations in China, amongst different sectors. Is the Chinese
:20:36. > :20:38.government responding to this, I know you have made contact with the
:20:39. > :20:47.Department of agriculture and health, what are they saying? One of
:20:48. > :20:53.the leading authors in our group is a man who from the beginning has
:20:54. > :20:58.made great efforts to contact the Chinese government to let them
:20:59. > :21:03.know, particularly the Ministry of agriculture to let them know our
:21:04. > :21:07.findings and our thoughts, we need to remove this drug colistin from
:21:08. > :21:11.animal feeds. The Chinese government take it extremely seriously, we have
:21:12. > :21:15.had meetings with the Ministry of health and the ministry about the
:21:16. > :21:21.and they will continue tomorrow and probably into early next week and I
:21:22. > :21:33.think we can expect some very good and clear resolution in the next
:21:34. > :21:35.couple of weeks. And this is not a problem that is confined to China?
:21:36. > :21:39.You have been looking at south Asia as a whole. That is right. The
:21:40. > :21:42.information that we have and we need to ratify it would suggest in fact
:21:43. > :21:53.that this particular type of resistance in the bugs like E. Coli,
:21:54. > :21:56.we found them in different countries and including North Vietnam. It
:21:57. > :22:03.looks like it is spreading outside China. China give a lot of their
:22:04. > :22:11.chickens and pork into Hong Kong and I would imagine that it is the same
:22:12. > :22:15.case there and like the doctors you interviewed in the clip suggests, it
:22:16. > :22:19.is going to be about three to five years before it becomes global. An
:22:20. > :22:23.hour ago I was talking to Jim O'Neill who is leading a UK review
:22:24. > :22:27.into antibiotic resistance and he said he thought one of the big
:22:28. > :22:30.problems was US agriculture and the fact that so many antibiotics are
:22:31. > :22:36.given to animals there as well but there is not a sense of alarm at
:22:37. > :22:42.all. No, I think different countries respond differently to this
:22:43. > :22:47.particular crisis and I think it would be very helpful if our
