0:01:31 > 0:01:34Hello and welcome to World News Today.
0:01:34 > 0:01:37A deadly terror attack at a mosque in the Sinai Peninsula in Egypt has
0:01:37 > 0:01:44killed at least 235 people.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47More than 100 people have been injured, many critically.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49It happened in a remote town in Northern Sinai,
0:01:50 > 0:01:51near the city of el-Arish.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53Militants entered the mosque during Friday prayers,
0:01:53 > 0:01:56opening fire and detonating a bomb.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58They were armed with automatic rifles and rocket
0:01:58 > 0:02:01propelled grenades.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03It is the deadliest attack yet in the three year
0:02:03 > 0:02:07insurgency in Sinai.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10James Landale has the latest - a warning there are some
0:02:10 > 0:02:13distressing images in his report.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18These were some of the chaotic scenes after the attack,
0:02:18 > 0:02:22as hundreds of wounded people were rushed to nearby hospitals.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26Survivors of one of the most deadly attacks on civilians in Egypt.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29Witnesses said the militants stormed the mosque in northern Sinai
0:02:29 > 0:02:32and exploded a bomb inside.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34They said around 40 gunmen then fired on worshippers
0:02:34 > 0:02:36as they tried to flee.
0:02:36 > 0:02:38They came here to kneel in prayer.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42Instead, they lay down in death.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46President Sisi sent his condolences to the families of those who had
0:02:46 > 0:02:49died and said the attack would only increase Egypt's determination
0:02:49 > 0:02:53to face up to terrorism.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56Many of the dead and wounded were said to be Sufi Muslims,
0:02:56 > 0:03:00whose brand of Islam is rejected by jihadi extremists.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03But a mass attack on a mosque, with such devastating consequences,
0:03:03 > 0:03:06is very rare in Egypt.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08This is unprecedented.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10I can't see any particular imperative behind it
0:03:10 > 0:03:14in the slightest.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17You haven't had this sort of attack take place before.
0:03:17 > 0:03:20You've seen the rhetoric about Sufis and Sufism from these radical groups
0:03:20 > 0:03:30for years but you've never seen an attack like this.
0:03:32 > 0:03:33The militants have long targeted religious opponents such
0:03:33 > 0:03:35as Coptic Christians, particularly by mounting
0:03:35 > 0:03:36attacks on their churches.
0:03:36 > 0:03:39They've also killed civilians who work with the authorities in Sinai.
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Until tonight, Egypt's deadliest terror attack was the downing
0:03:41 > 0:03:43of a Russian passenger jet over Sinai in October 2015.
0:03:43 > 0:03:46IS said they were behind the bombing that killed 224 people.
0:03:46 > 0:03:48But so far no one has claimed responsibility for today's
0:03:48 > 0:03:50attack, which has now left even more people dead.
0:03:50 > 0:03:59James Landale, BBC News.
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Joining me in the studio is Professor Fawaz Gerges
0:04:01 > 0:04:07from the London School of Economics.
0:04:07 > 0:04:14This area has seen some intense violence -
0:04:23 > 0:04:28This is the most savage attack, in skill of savagery it is unique. More
0:04:28 > 0:04:34than 400 people killed and injured. Dozens of attackers using not only
0:04:34 > 0:04:38automatic weapons but also rocket grenades, targeting the ambulances
0:04:38 > 0:04:43that came to take the victims, hunting the worshippers. The first
0:04:43 > 0:04:47time that they have attacked the mosque. Muslims attacking other
0:04:47 > 0:04:52Muslims, even though most of the worshippers belong to the Sufi
0:04:52 > 0:05:02sacked. Two or three million objective is -- Egyptians are Sufis.
0:05:02 > 0:05:09Hardliners think that Sufis are heretical. IIS has decided to attack
0:05:09 > 0:05:14now the Sufis, not just the Christian context.This region has
0:05:14 > 0:05:18seen intense violence over the past few years. What do you think the
0:05:18 > 0:05:24root cause of this violence is?It is easy for us to say Al-Qaeda,
0:05:24 > 0:05:30Isis, Al-Qaeda, Isis. There is an insurgency that has been going on in
0:05:30 > 0:05:34north Sinai for more than a decade. This particular area of Egypt is
0:05:34 > 0:05:42populated mostly by Bedouins. Dave Phillips colluded and marginalised,
0:05:42 > 0:05:45treated as second-class citizens, so they have been revolting against the
0:05:45 > 0:05:51central authority in the past ten years so. What has happened in the
0:05:51 > 0:05:55last few years, the insurgency has become radicalised. Despite taken on
0:05:55 > 0:06:04the of Isis. In fact, the Sinai province pledge allegiance to Isis
0:06:04 > 0:06:10in 2014, so the spectacular rise of Isis in 2014 has resonated with
0:06:10 > 0:06:14radicals, in particular in North Sinai, and outside of Syria and Iran
0:06:14 > 0:06:20for this Sinai province, which is part of Isis, is one of the most
0:06:20 > 0:06:27powerful affiliate site I -- outside of Iraq and Syria. There are more
0:06:27 > 0:06:34than 1,000 skilled fanatical determined to kill their own,
0:06:34 > 0:06:38including Muslim believers. If Chelsea a great deal about how
0:06:38 > 0:06:45difficult the situation in Egypt is today.Do you think the government
0:06:45 > 0:06:50is doing enough to protect minorities in Egypt?It is very
0:06:50 > 0:06:55easy, time and again, Isis and Al-Qaeda and militants have targeted
0:06:55 > 0:06:59minorities in Egypt. Why? Because they want to show that the
0:06:59 > 0:07:03government is impotent. They want to humiliate the government, should the
0:07:03 > 0:07:07Egyptians that the government does not have the capacity to protect
0:07:07 > 0:07:12them. They want to plunge Egypt into sectarian warfare, exactly what
0:07:12 > 0:07:17happened in Iraq and Syria. Think I easy it is to kill civilians. It
0:07:17 > 0:07:23just takes the will to kill. To go into an mosque, explode a bomb and
0:07:23 > 0:07:27then basically hummed the worshippers who are fleeing. No
0:07:27 > 0:07:30government in Britain or the United States can protect civilians
0:07:30 > 0:07:38periods. The underlying theme of your question, even though the
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Egyptian government has thrown everything that the militants, can
0:07:41 > 0:07:45put an end to the multiple insurgencies, not only in this
0:07:45 > 0:07:52Sinai, but you have another faction and other freelancers who are
0:07:52 > 0:07:56carrying out attacks in Egypt. It is a very complicated story and that is
0:07:56 > 0:08:00why the Egyptian government is facing a major dilemma.
0:08:00 > 0:08:08Thank you very much.
0:08:08 > 0:08:17Zimbabwe has a new president.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19Emmerson Mnangagwa was sworn in at a ceremony in the national
0:08:19 > 0:08:21stadium in the capital Harare.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23It of course marks the end of the Mugabe era.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26Robert Mugabe, who had been in power for 37 years,
0:08:26 > 0:08:28did not attend the ceremony - the official reason given
0:08:28 > 0:08:29that he was "too tired".
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Our Zimbabwe Correspondent, Shingai Nyoka, reports.
0:08:32 > 0:08:34The changing of the guard in Zimbabwe.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35And long-time leader Robert Mugabe was not
0:08:35 > 0:08:41there to witness it.
0:08:41 > 0:08:42But newly-elected President Emmerson Mnangagwa doesn't
0:08:42 > 0:08:43need his blessing.
0:08:43 > 0:08:50I, Emmerson Mnangagwa...
0:08:50 > 0:08:52The moment Zimbabweans have been waiting for,
0:08:52 > 0:08:59the swearing in of this country's second leader in nearly 40 years.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01This is Zimbabwe's new president, not through an election
0:09:01 > 0:09:03but with the help of the military.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06It caps the most dramatic two weeks in Zimbabwe's history,
0:09:06 > 0:09:10and a surprise comeback from a man who just a fortnight ago fled
0:09:10 > 0:09:14the country in fear of his life.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18With Mugabe's departure, Mnangagwa will serve
0:09:18 > 0:09:20as interim President until next year's election.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23But he inherits a fragmented party and a country broken under Mugabe's
0:09:23 > 0:09:28isolationist policies.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31In his inaugural speech there was praise for his predecessor.
0:09:31 > 0:09:40He led us in our struggle for national independence.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43He assumed responsibilities of leadership at a formative
0:09:43 > 0:09:49and a very challenging time, at the behest of our nation.
0:09:49 > 0:09:54That is to be lauded and celebrated.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56But also a pledge to break from the past.
0:09:56 > 0:09:59I am not oblivious to the many Zimbabweans from our political,
0:09:59 > 0:10:09ethnic and racial divides, who have helped make this day.
0:10:09 > 0:10:15So, what do we know about Emmerson Mnangagwa?
0:10:15 > 0:10:20Jailed for ten years in 1965, he met Mugabe in prison.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23There, the two men formed a close association.
0:10:23 > 0:10:29After independence in 1980, he became Mugabe's right-hand man.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31In 1983, he was implicated in the mass murder of thousands
0:10:31 > 0:10:35of opposition supporters in Matabeleland,
0:10:35 > 0:10:38something he denies.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40More recently, he was accused of orchestrating a violent crackdown
0:10:40 > 0:10:44on opposition supporters.
0:10:44 > 0:10:48Those who are very close to him say that he listens more than he speaks.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51He is a soft-spoken man, a gentleman, contrary
0:10:51 > 0:10:54to what the reports say about him.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56A God-fearing family man.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59We have to give him some time because an improvement
0:10:59 > 0:11:04is something which cannot be improved like overnight.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07After two weeks of uncertainty, Zimbabwe seems to be
0:11:07 > 0:11:09returning to normal again.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11No one knows what the future holds, whether Mnangagwa
0:11:11 > 0:11:21is the man to bring a new era of democracy and freedom.
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Police here in London say they've found no evidence to support
0:11:24 > 0:11:26reports of shots being fired around Oxford Circus Underground station
0:11:26 > 0:11:31and have stood down their response.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34The station and nearby Bond Street were closed and the local area
0:11:34 > 0:11:36placed on lockdown as part of a major operation.
0:11:36 > 0:11:44Here's our Home Affairs Correspondent June Kelly.
0:11:44 > 0:11:48It was just after 4:30pm when the alarm was raised.
0:11:48 > 0:11:54There were reports of two bangs which sounded like gunshots
0:11:54 > 0:11:56close to Oxford Circus Tube station.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58This was an alert on one of London's most crowded streets
0:11:58 > 0:12:00in the rushhour on Black Friday, one of the busiest
0:12:01 > 0:12:02shopping days of the year.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Hundreds of people were left frightened and confused
0:12:04 > 0:12:06as they were told to get off the street and take
0:12:06 > 0:12:09refuge in nearby shops.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12People who did appear to know what may have happened said
0:12:12 > 0:12:15they thought they heard a gunshot and I think you could just see
0:12:15 > 0:12:18the panic was just spreading.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20People were sprinting and crying and running.
0:12:20 > 0:12:25It was very distressing to watch.
0:12:25 > 0:12:27Armed officers were quickly on the scene.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30Scotland Yard issued a brief statement saying that the police
0:12:30 > 0:12:33were responding as if the incident was terrorist related
0:12:33 > 0:12:35and they were working alongside colleagues
0:12:35 > 0:12:38from British Transport Police, but then came news that the Met's
0:12:38 > 0:12:44Counterterrorism Command Unit were not getting involved.
0:12:44 > 0:12:47The police also said there was no evidence of shots fired or any trace
0:12:47 > 0:12:50of casualties or suspects.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53Amid the mayhem, the Selfridge's department store, at the other end
0:12:53 > 0:12:57of Oxford Street, was evacuated.
0:12:57 > 0:13:00Just after 6:00pm, the whole area was declared safe and people
0:13:00 > 0:13:05were allowed to leave buildings where they had sought shelter.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09Let's take a look at some of the other
0:13:09 > 0:13:10stories making the news.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12A court in South Africa has increased the jail sentence
0:13:12 > 0:13:14handed out to athlete Oscar Pistorius for
0:13:14 > 0:13:21murdering his girlfriend.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23The Court ruled that his sentence be increased to 13
0:13:23 > 0:13:24years and five months.
0:13:24 > 0:13:27Prosecutors argued that the six-year term for murdering his girlfriend
0:13:27 > 0:13:29Reeva Steenkamp was too short.
0:13:29 > 0:13:32Saudi Arabia's de-facto ruler has called Iran's supreme leader
0:13:32 > 0:13:34the "Hitler of the Middle East".
0:13:34 > 0:13:36Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said the European experience shows
0:13:36 > 0:13:38that appeasing Tehran will not work.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Saudi Arabia and Iran accuse each other of fuelling
0:13:40 > 0:13:48instability across the region.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51North Korea appears to be fortifying its border
0:13:51 > 0:13:53in the Demilitarised Zone with the South.
0:13:53 > 0:13:58It's after a soldier defected by running across the zone.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00A US diplomat to South Korea has tweeted a picture,
0:14:01 > 0:14:06showing workers digging a trench.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08The defector was shot multiple times by border guards from the North
0:14:08 > 0:14:10at this spot last week.
0:14:10 > 0:14:12He is still in hospital.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Moroccans gathering in mosques across the country

0:14:24 > 0:14:25Earlier this week King Mohammed VI
0:14:25 > 0:14:26called for the prayers.
0:14:26 > 0:14:30There has been a severe shortage of rain in the past few months,
0:14:30 > 0:14:32which has hit agriculture and rural employment - both central
0:14:32 > 0:14:33to the country's economy.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35An escaped circus tiger has been shot dead
0:14:35 > 0:14:36on the streets of Paris.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39Members of the public phoned the emergency services around six
0:14:39 > 0:14:42o'clock in the evening to say they had seen the animal loose
0:14:42 > 0:14:45near the River Seine in the west of the city.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30in a militant attack in Egypt.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32Gunmen stormed a crowded mosque in the Sinai peninsula

0:16:40 > 0:16:42Addressing a packed stadium, he vowed to serve all
0:16:42 > 0:16:46of the country's citizens.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50The President of the European Council has said
0:16:50 > 0:16:52the British government's hopes of an agreement next month to begin
0:16:52 > 0:16:59Brexit trade talks remain a "huge challenge".
0:16:59 > 0:17:01Following meetings with the British Prime Minister, Theresa May,
0:17:01 > 0:17:04in Brussels, Donald Tusk said progress was still needed
0:17:04 > 0:17:06from the UK "on all issues", within the next 10 days.
0:17:06 > 0:17:10Our deputy political editor John Pienaar reports from Brussels.
0:17:11 > 0:17:15An amicable divorce from a roomful of partners, but it's getting tense.
0:17:15 > 0:17:18So, now Theresa May is hinting to EU leaders, starting with Donald Tusk
0:17:18 > 0:17:21in the summit chair, that Britain might up and some say
0:17:21 > 0:17:26double its offer of £20 billion in a separation deal.
0:17:26 > 0:17:29Dig deeper into the nation's purse.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32If only the EU is ready to talk trade.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Or this long goodbye could end in tears -
0:17:34 > 0:17:37the last thing she wanted.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39These negotiations are continuing, but what I am clear
0:17:39 > 0:17:42about is that we must step forward together.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45This is for both the UK and the European Union to move
0:17:45 > 0:17:47onto the next stage.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50Brexit negotiations could, maybe will, turn to trade next month.
0:17:51 > 0:17:54Leaders here need more persuasion.
0:17:54 > 0:18:00Mr Juncker, are you worried about Brexit?
0:18:00 > 0:18:03Brexit is a tragedy.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06I will meet the British Prime Minister on the 3rd of December
0:18:06 > 0:18:09and then we will see if there has been sufficient progress.
0:18:09 > 0:18:12Are you at all confident that progress will be made?
0:18:12 > 0:18:14Yes.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17But every country must agree to start talking trade,
0:18:17 > 0:18:19and Ireland's minority government is facing the risk
0:18:19 > 0:18:21of collapse at home, but was sounding tough here.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25Suggesting Brexit talks could stall without clear guarantees
0:18:25 > 0:18:29there will be no hard north-south customs border.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32Is Ireland prepared to block progress?
0:18:32 > 0:18:35I don't think Ireland will have to block anything on its own.
0:18:35 > 0:18:40There is absolute solidarity across 27 countries here.
0:18:40 > 0:18:42Germany is not much more supportive.
0:18:42 > 0:18:43Angela Merkel was already firm on Brexit.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47Now she has her hands full forming a new government.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50She met Mrs May today, another leader looking for more give
0:18:50 > 0:18:54on the British side.
0:18:54 > 0:18:56In her one-on-one talks with the EU Council president,
0:18:57 > 0:18:59no final proposals, no breakthrough.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01And they may not settle hard numbers on the divorce
0:19:01 > 0:19:03bill for months to come.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06But they explored the case for more compromise.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08There are still issues across the various matters
0:19:08 > 0:19:11that we are negotiating on to be resolved, but there has been a very
0:19:11 > 0:19:14positive atmosphere in the talks and a genuine feeling
0:19:14 > 0:19:17that we want to move forward together.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Neither side wants the Brexit talks to end in stalemate,
0:19:19 > 0:19:22but without more give and take it could happen.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25And then the risk would grow of negotiations ending with no
0:19:25 > 0:19:27EU trade deal at all.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29And that's the outcome business leaders, who are worried
0:19:29 > 0:19:33about Brexit, say they fear most.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36So, more talking to do ahead of the next big summit next month.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39The slow march of Brexit goes on.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42Its course and destination being decided one step at a time.
0:19:42 > 0:19:52John Pienaar, BBC News, Brussels.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54The Argentine president, Mauricio Macri, says he had ordered
0:19:54 > 0:19:56a thorough investigation into what happened to
0:19:56 > 0:20:02a submarine that disappeared more than a week ago.
0:20:02 > 0:20:05Relatives of the 44 crew members of the San Juan say they've
0:20:05 > 0:20:07lost any hope of seeing them alive again.
0:20:07 > 0:20:10The Navy says it believes there was an explosion
0:20:10 > 0:20:15close to its last known location.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Earlier, I spoke to Candace Piette, BBC Online's Americas editor.
0:20:18 > 0:20:25She told me what we know about the investigation.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28The president was careful to say that this investigation was
0:20:28 > 0:20:32something that he had ordered but it wouldn't start immediately. We have
0:20:32 > 0:20:35to be aware that there are still conducting an enormous surge in the
0:20:35 > 0:20:43South Atlantic for this submarine, a search that involves over 30 ships
0:20:43 > 0:20:46and aeroplanes and involves a large international group of countries
0:20:46 > 0:20:52that have come out to help. So, he wanted to give over the idea that he
0:20:52 > 0:21:00is concerned about criticisms of the family -- and that the families have
0:21:00 > 0:21:04had about the way the Navy has managed this sort the fair, but that
0:21:04 > 0:21:14he would not interfere with the search as it is at the moment.
0:21:14 > 0:21:19Now, the sport. In the next few hours the Australian captain, Steve
0:21:19 > 0:21:25Smith, will look to build on his innings that saved his side on the
0:21:25 > 0:21:35second day of the first Ashes Test. Smith will resume on 64. His team
0:21:35 > 0:21:42165-4, trailing England by 137 runs. At one stage aside and 76-4, so a
0:21:42 > 0:21:47real the's innings to revive his side. It has been a topsy-turvy
0:21:47 > 0:21:53match so far. The men from switching either way.
0:21:53 > 0:21:58What an enthralling second day we had at the Gabba. The pendulum has
0:21:58 > 0:22:03swung, but it has ended with honours pretty much even. England's begun
0:22:03 > 0:22:07the day in a decent position, batting really well for an hour and
0:22:07 > 0:22:13a half, but then it all went wrong. They lost their last six wickets for
0:22:13 > 0:22:19just 56 runs in barely an hour. 302 all out at lunch. Australia seem
0:22:19 > 0:22:25very much in the ascendancy. But then the English bowlers help them
0:22:25 > 0:22:32fight back, Stuart Broad taking the first wicket. Australia subsided to
0:22:32 > 0:22:3876-4 at one stage, but then her recovery thanks to his captain Steve
0:22:38 > 0:22:43Smith and Shaun Marsh. They guided Australia through to 105-4 at the
0:22:43 > 0:22:48close, so another day of fluctuating fortunes, but the match is
0:22:48 > 0:22:53intriguingly poised going into day three.
0:22:53 > 0:22:57Sri Lanka were dismissed for 205 in their first innings against India on
0:22:57 > 0:23:00the first day of the second test.
0:23:17 > 0:23:23Qualification for the woman's World Cup in 2019 is continuing around
0:23:23 > 0:23:27Europe. England played their second match in group A. They beat Bosnia
0:23:27 > 0:23:314-0. Portugal have beat Moldova yet- zero.
0:23:38 > 0:23:42The draw for the quarterfinal stage of the woman's Champions League has
0:23:42 > 0:23:50pledged Lyon against Barcelona. Will spark this Prague, Montpelier will
0:23:50 > 0:23:55play Chelsea and Manchester City will play the Swedish champions, who
0:23:55 > 0:24:00have never been part of the last eight. Belgium and France are level
0:24:00 > 0:24:05after the first day of the Davis Cup final. David Goffin beat Lucas
0:24:05 > 0:24:13Pouille. That end the run of three defeats to the Frenchman, given
0:24:13 > 0:24:16Belgium the best possible start as they hope to end what has been a 16
0:24:16 > 0:24:19year run of three defeats to the Frenchman, given Belgium the best
0:24:19 > 0:24:22possible start as they hope to end what has been a 16 year brands
0:24:22 > 0:24:24without ever winning the title. Jo-Wilfried Tsonga -- Jo-Wilfried
0:24:24 > 0:24:31Tsonga did manage to win his game. The Frenchman dropping just six
0:24:31 > 0:24:39games in the match. The International Olympic Committee has
0:24:39 > 0:24:43given for more Russian athletes life bans for doping violations. The most
0:24:43 > 0:24:50high-profile of these is the bobsleigh athlete Alexander's took
0:24:50 > 0:24:56off. It means Roger have now lost nine medals, including four of their
0:24:56 > 0:25:0413 golds from the games, which they hosted back in 2014. The IOC said it
0:25:04 > 0:25:11avoided -- have avoided those results. That is all the sport for
0:25:11 > 0:25:13now.
0:25:13 > 0:25:18Thank you.

0:25:26 > 0:25:28Thurman said on Instagram: "When I'm ready, I'll say
0:25:29 > 0:25:30what I have to say...
0:25:30 > 0:25:33stay tuned", adding that she had a few reasons to be angry.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36Her message wished a happy Thanksgiving to everyone except,
