>> reporter: bullet holes in the glass at this copenhagen cafe after an afternoon debate turned violent leaving one dead and others including a police officer badly injured. >> a very serious act of violence tonight, we feel certain now that it is a politically motivated attack and, thereby, it is a terrorist attack. we take this situation extremely seriously. we are in a high alarm all over the country and our main priority at this stage is to catch the perpetrators and make sure that we find them as soon as possible. >> guests including the french ambassador francois zimere said they were under fire but still alive as a gunman tried to storm the building spraying the cafe with shots when he couldn't get in. controversial swedish cartoonist

larsvilleks is said to have organized the district attorneyebate. it's reported he hid with other guests in the cafe's cold store as police did battle with a heavily armed gunman ultimately though surviving the attack. some are calling the shooting an attempt on his life. he already lives under constant police protection. the french ambassador told reporters that he and other guests threw themselves on the floor to stay alive as bullets came through the windows. the french interior minister is now said to be on his way to denmark and the prime minister treated his solidarity with the danes calling the shooting an attack on freedom. a detailed mikt of the shooter is now emerging. at first, it was thought there were two stackers, but now please are focusing on one suspect. he is said to be arab-looking and was wearing a kathia speaking danish as he made his escape in a volks waggen car. as night fell police patrolled

the area as they continue the now desperate search for the gunman denmark wonders aloud if he will strike again. july i mcdonald al jazeera. >> the cafe where it took place is in northern copenhagen. this is at venue famous for live music, in particular jazz concerts but hosts theatrical shows as well as high-profile talks and debates. kristina marco is at the scene right now and brings us with the latest. what's happening in the police hunt? ? >> a massive manhunt is underway. danish police and security services are scouring copenhaguen and the surrounding areas. trains are being stopped and now, police in neighboring sweeden are also involved in the investigation as the danish prime minister said to journalists after visiting the scene today: the top priority

is finding the suspects but she also called for calm and she calls on danes to remain united in the face of this attack. she said this isn't something anyone wants to see in denmark and that the next few days will be very difficult indeed. she also said that denmark is on high alert right now. is it fair to say, though christina, that denmark has been on alert for such attacks for quite some time? >> reporter: it has. denmark was the birthplace really, of the controversy over the caric temperatures of the 3r0e69 mohammed t started with a series of care caricatures that led to attacks on western embassies and interests. denmark has been involved in campaigns in iraq and afghanistan. and in that respect, they are very much a terror target. >> christina marco live in k0e7

en haguen. thanks very much indeed. we have been with justin crump ceo of the security team and an expert on world security. thank you for coming in. let's talk a little bit about this police hunt. what are the basics of this? and how will they go about it? and what are the dangers? >> obviously, as we said there, denmark has been on alert sometimes. security forces have been very aware of the thread. lars vilks has had security measures. the newspaper just mentioned in denmark and independent lars lars vilks, himself. >> appears to be what was attacked if you look at the casualties amongst police officers. the victim -- he has gotten away. whether they are plots, where a further person emerged connected to the original attackers and the possibility of a shoot-out, obviously a well-armed person

firing at least a magazine into the police officers. a strong shootout somewhere and probably the desire of the attacker to go out in a suicidal act. again as we have seen in previous incidents including boston and including in paris. obviously security forces high alert, very much trying to keep an eye for one individual, very, very difficult in these circumstances. we will be working very hard to look at his network to try to see who he might be connected to, who it might be and really activating every source they have to try to get leads because at the moment they are probably scrambling. >> this is the problem of knowing if this was one attacker working on his own, influenced by who knows what. >> right. >> or whether he has some connection to any group. no claim of responsibility has to be said. >> no. but i wouldn't be surprised to see some sort of linkage. what we are seeing you can have a lone attacker but definitely inspired by a group such as al-qaeda and it also the" in the

arabian "penguins of madagascar." i think underlying this is a desire of groups like islamic state, a real change in strategy to try to drive a wedge in the west between muslims and between western -- normal western society and trying to force them to take sides. the danger after something like this, it affects the debate around free speech and drives activists, right-wing groups who think they are protecting their culture and playing into what these jihadist groups want whether or not they have been directly involved. as we tend to find there are often some linkages we can trace-back to syria and countries, the theaters of jihad and sometimes less than one would expect and more of a self-motivated persons. it's a huge range of threats for security to deal with. >> in scanned navy i can't is known as a tolerant quite liberal, quitefree nation?

>> now whether that's part of the strategy on behalf -- well maybe a lone actor, whether it's just the fact this is seen as a very legitimate act of revenge against someone who has insulted the prophet, islam, is a long-running and the country is seen as having cross did did the line still targeting a strat oofrnlingic railway hub, charles

stratedford is in donetsk and experienced firsthand another day of escalating violence. >> reporter: we were waiting for a news conference to start when the first dull thud of a shell was heard. as we left the building there was another bang. and much closer this time. one of the shells hit a residential area near a children's playground. >> translator: we heard several explosions. all of the glass broke. we ran into the basement. we were sitting at home celebrating my daughter's birthday and this happened. there are people who live here too. how can they live like this? >> reporter: shortly after the separatist leader announced a cease-fire would not apply to the town of dubulsavik.

>> we will stop fire in all of the donetsk people's territory except for internal regions. any attempt by ukrainian forces to break out will be considered a violation of the minsk agreement. obviously any attempts will be stopped. >> it has seen some of the most intense fighting in recent weeks. it's believed thousands of ukrainian soldiers are surrounded there by separatists. at a time is strategically important. the if the separatists take is it they will have a direct railway link to russia. ukraine and the u.s. accuse russia of arming the separatists, but it's a claim that russia denies. the u.s. am bass tore to ukraine published these pictures which washington says show russian troops building up around the town of debulseve. these statements by separatist leader alexander zakashinko do not bodes well for the

cease-fire deal. the state of the town was never mention did, he says in the minsk deal. this could be a major stumbling block for the truce. >> the fate of the ukrainian soldiers t seems, may now determine whether the fighting stops. charles stratford, al jazeera, dondon eastern ukraine. >> charles joins us live from donetsk. less than an hour charles until the staff of this cease-fire. tell us what the situation is looking like now. >> reporter: as you can probably see, it's a very eerie night here a lot of freezing fog. in the last hour hour and a half the shelling has increased. we have heard what sound to be both incoming and outgoing shelling from around donetsk. we are also hearing reports that there has been am continuation of that intention battle around the town of debulsevea continuation really of the last two days.

and it seems as if both sides in this conflict have used this period between the truce being signed and it potentially being implemented to either consolid consolidator build on their positions. we left the debulseve area today this morning and as we came back across the front line it was evidence there were a lot more restrictions amongst the ukrainian military and the way they were enforcing their checkpoints checkpoints. there was also mortars being set up by separatists on their checkpoints. we spoke to a separatist there. he told us that he expected things to get a lot louder as he said as night fell. it certainly seems as if that is happening as we speak. >> there hasn't been much optimism of success ahead of this cease-fire deadline. people are already looking now ahead as to what will happen if the cease-fire does fail.

>> that's right. everyone we have spoken to certainly on this side of the conflict here in donmas have very little hope very little trust in the ukrainian government a lot of finger pointing. you could say the same thing of the people we have spoken to on the other side as well. as evidence suggests there has been such a large troop buildup and a push by the separatists in recent days that it certainly doesn't bode well and then we have had these comments over the last couple of hours from the separatist leader. it's also worth pointing out that the ukrainian president, petro poroshenko said if this truce fails, he would call for martial law across all of the ukrainian territory. what, in fact that would involve remains to be clear, but martial law usual looks at things like increased military operations curfews, instructions -- restrictions of

the military. so certainly, there is very little optimism at this stage as we are -- as you say, just under an hour now away from the cease-fire potentially being complemented that in fact it will go forward. with words like that from the ukrainian president about martial law, the i am politic indications for a wider, more long-lasting peace agreement seem pretty slim at this stage. >> charles stratford live with the latest from donetsk. thanks charles. still to come ol this newshour italy says it is prepared to intervene in libya as isil supporters claim to have captured the city of sirt. >> the aftermath of a strike by boka haram fighters in chad as nigerian fighters say they have fought off an attack by the armed group. >> no place like home for aaron finch as he notches up a big score against eng lands in the cricket world cup.

had a half an hour from now. let's have more on the top story. the shooting event in copenhaguen. speaking at the event when the attack started, she joins me on the telephone. first of all, you were speaking with the shooting started. describe, if you can, what happened. >> yes. i was attending

representing an event speaking and ironically i was thinking about illusion sometimes we can have in europe of beingability enjoy freedom of speech and once i finished the sentence about an illusion we can have we heard shots. we heard shots. first, it seemed like they were outside of the building and in some seconds, we clearly heard that there was fire back and everything was happening just behind the door of the room where the panel discussion was taking place. when we heard the shots, i was still continuing to speak, but because nobody really reacted and when it was clear that this is a gunshot people started to run. everybody was running in different corners, and one of the organizers of the event opened the back door of the room where the panel took place, and

everybody was running, and i had been pulled by one of the danish journalist who grabbed me and we were running. we were running outside, and everybody was hiding in the places where they could. and some minutes after police arrived and surrounded the place and everybody was evacuated from the room and from the area nearby. >> it sounds like the gunman didn't actually manage to get into the room where you were speaking. is that right? >> exactly. >> he was outside? >> exactly. he couldn't manage to enter the room but definitely he was trying, and that was the goal of his, i think. nobody will doubt that. and to be honest to say that we could be -- should be thankful for not having at least 40 -- 40 victims of this event, 40 people right here with me at the police station who survived who have

not been injured, we should thank for surviving, we should thank policemen who have been injured and who have been protecting the place. the event was protected by police and there was security and obviously, of course there was expectation that something could happen because of the panelists copenhagen. the fact that they would be there, the fact i would be there and, also it was anounced in the program of the event. so obviously, police expected that something could happen. and, yeah, i just can't express my, you know i can just thank the policemen for being there and protecting the event and obviously because of the fact that they were working there and protecting the event, we don't have more victims today. >> inna was this meeting

actually open to the public? was it widely advertised? did a lot of people know about it? >> well it was -- it was promoted on the website of the committee and i tweeted about it today on my personal twitter and i cannot say that this was one of the biggest events. to be honest i was expecting, after losing 12 ideological brothers and dearest friends from charlie heb to do i would expect something could happen but to be honest i couldn't expect that this could happen here in denmark and copenhagen copenhagen. but i think that today, after this event, we definitely should make clear that there is no such place as safe europe any more and we should make clear for ourselves thatcud krudttoenden. we should continue to organize more and morents like this to be as brave with our ideas as

extremists are. >> inna can i go back to the security? were there police officers and bodyguards outside the door? because we know that lars vilks does arehave his own bodyguards. >> well i know that there were definitely policemen lawyers there were four police protecting the plates outside the room where we were. they were checking everybody everybody who wanted to enter the debates to listen to the panel, and i saw policemen. i am not sure about bodyguards. i can't tell you for sure where they were at that time. >> we know of course one person died. i don't know whether you actually know who that person is. it was a civilian we gather. >> yes. it was one person who went out of the room that moment. >> inna a terrible or deal for you and that meeting. thank you so much for joining us here on al jazeera thank you.

more details now on other main story this hour the violence ahead of the cell phonease nigher ukraine. with me isted see. he is an expert on conflicts worldwide. thanks so much for coming in to al jazeera. is there any more chance that this cease-fire is going to succeed in the way that the cease-fire back in september last year failed? >> i think not. the main reason is that there is a fundamental and deep division mon ukrainian society between those who favor more contact with the west and those who favor continued ties economically and complicly withshay. until those divisions are addressed, i don't see a lasting peace. i hope the shooting remains, you know, out of bounds because of the cease-fire for as long as possible. i don't think we are seeing the seeds, here of a permanent solution. >> how much depends upon how much influence russia actually has on the pro-russia

separatists operating inside ukraine. russia says it hasn't been helping them. how big is the influence over these rebels on the ground? >> it's hard to say, really because you are only talking about some 17% of ethnic russians in ukraine, itself as opposed to about 78% of ethnic ukrainians. clearly, there is a lot more sentiment for russia than just among ethnic russians. so to split out these groups by population is a mistake, i think. you've got two parts of society which are rather closely divided. we have seen that in the last few e lex results, elections certified as free and fair and in which the pro-russia fact action won out more often than not. we have a fundamental division here that i think, more than any sort of minutae of the cease fire agreement or what might happen, you know by putin picking up the telephone and calling someone, we need to see those basic underlying concerns answered before we see a lasting peace. >> a cease-fire i was reading

through is terrible complex about certain areas borders, de demil tarized, et cetera. are we knowthough creeping towards a stage where ukrainians are going to eventually be divided? crimea is annexed. there is this divide among ukraineians. is that where this is going? >> thank you for coming in. thank you. an anti-corruption activist has been sworn in as chief minister of india's capital in his oath taking ceremony he promised to make india's first

corruption free state and put an end to vip culture. jamil has more from new delhi. >> nothing was going to stop arvin kedreval. he had been sick with fever for the last four days. after winning an overwhelming majority of state assembly seats, he says his party will focus on fighting corruption. >> my promise to the people of delhi is the money you paid in taxes has always disappeared because of corruption. i promise you that i will not let one cent of that tax get lost in corruption. . >> in his first speech as delhi's chief minister he cautioned his party to be mindful of the new power. it was exactly one year that the amadmi or common man party stepped down from a 49-day old minority government after it was unable pass promised reforms. this time the party has been given a man date from voters to go ahead. for many people they say it

feels like a victory for them. >> this is great. he doesn't have any dirt in his soul. he has 100% feeling for the masses. so, if he has such true feelings the work will automatically start happening. >> he does a lot of good work. we are all with him. >> with one of india's youngest cabinets, the party said its determined and confident it will make delhi a better promise? >> every promise has been economically socially vetted, audit audited, and we are raring to go waiting to deliver. >> not everyone in the crowd was as optimistic now as they were during campaign. >> whatever promises he made he never mentioned any of those in today's speech. he didn't speak about the houses he had promised electricity and water being cheap. it wasn't in his speech either. it's all very confusing now. >> but for most in the sea of

supporters the belief is change is finally here. >> there are many challenges facing delhi's new government a lack of chief statehood means he has no control over the delhi police or several other government agencies. many reforms will need clearance from the central government which may or may not cooperate. the party has a five-year mandate, people here expect results soon. fez jamil, al jazeera, new delhi. >> new mobile phone footage has emerged of friday's attack in pakistan, it shows three taliban attackers rushing into the mosque before two of the gunmen blew themselves up. at least 20 people were killed and more than 65 injured in the attack. the pakistani taliban has claimed responsibility for the attack through a spokesman. they said the attack was revenge for the hanging of a fighter known as dr. uzman in december. the five-year prison sentence the opposition leader anwar ibrahim has been met with
