to find the shooter because what we know is that around eight thirty local time in strasbourg a man opened fire near the christmas market in the center of the city throwing people at that market it's gone for an evening of shopping and socializing it's absolute panic we now know according to the local prosecutor that at least two people were killed now earlier there were reports of four people who that's actually been revised down to two people and there are still several others injured now the man who opened fire isn't twenty nine year old man he comes from the city of stress ball and he was actually known to police he was on the intelligence services. and in fact what's quite extraordinary some of the details are emerging that on tuesday morning the police actually went to his house they raided his home because they were looking for something they found with grenades and some weapons

they say he was absent and then of course later we know that this is the man who opened fire at this market causing terrible tragedy and if you listen to what some of the eyewitnesses have been saying about the evening people describing the moment when they heard gunshots people fleeing in all directions and really barricading themselves and shops and restaurants in fact the local mayor said many people are still barricaded in the center of the city it's absolutely locked down and even the police on the border because very close to the border with germany is on the border i should say with german even that border has now been shot as they try to search for this man and find out where he is the early reports that they don't actually manage to call him details still fairly sketchy take us through what actually happened the timeline of events in strasbourg over what sort of period of time did this happen and how busy with the streets have been at that time of night.

well it was around eight thirty local time in the evening in stress ball at this christmas market and this market is one of the most famous in france is very famous for its lights and decorations people from all over france all of the world visit this market is a real a tourist highlight and in fact markets like this are deemed a security risk in a way possible targets in france the country is still on a high alert ever since the twenty fifteen attacks so they were actually extra police at the market there were special military forces they called veggie parent forces here and in fact the police say that some of the soldiers from some of those forces opened fire on the shooter after the shooter actually attacked people he was wounded and then he left he escaped from that market is not where they've been trying to trace him there were reports as you say that police accorded him

a certain part of the city was cordoned off but at this stage there is no confirmation at all that he's there and as time passes it seems less and less likely he is we may know more shortly actually because the french interior minister christophe kasem to cast and then left paris earlier this evening he's now strasbourg has been speaking to police and security forces there and he is due to give a short press conference a briefing in about twenty minutes or so the session really think soldiers are as the live in paris there are reports that some backbench m.p.'s from the governing conservative party are getting ready to bring a no confidence motion against u.k. as the u.k. prime minister to resign may on wednesday may spread tuesday meeting with e.u. leaders trying to get changes to the brics a deal that she agreed less than three weeks ago she was forced to call off a vote in the british parliament on the agreement stu's a widespread opposition to it the e.u. has told me the talks cannot be reopened paul brennan reports.

signed up to the withdrawal agreement backstop and all just three weeks ago and assured the other e.u. twenty seven leaders that she would be able to carry it through parliament now she's back for more facing certain defeat at home and an uncertain reception in brussels there is no room whatsoever for you negotiation that's just course to this room if used intelligently is enough to give further clarification and further interpretations we vote open you do have to all agree to the sentiment here exasperated at the british political chaos and grim preparedness now for the worst case scenario which would prevent the only possible agreement and we've done a lot of concessions to reach it so we sincerely hope that there can be a majority. to or ratify the what's the word agreement but they have to are ready for a new deal and we are preparing for it downing street says the bracks it vote perspire

on from choose day may now not take place until mid. january i think the prime minister is going to see things through number ten until at least christmas which in modern politics constitutes long term planning here at westminster the prime minister's decision to postpone choose day's crucial vote and head off around europe seeking reassurances and clarifications has drawn howls of protest from the opposition parties for party leaders have written to the main opposition leader jeremy corbett asking him to join them in trying to force a vote of no confidence in theresa may these are grim times for the british prime minister and her room for maneuver is dwindling but so are the options facing the u.k. paul brennan al-jazeera london tax concessions made so-called yellow vest protesters will cost the french government ten billion euros that's according to the budget minister but it's not clear if the government has done enough to take the steam out of the protest movement demonstrations began more than four weeks ago and finally

across central paris to a standstill while violent elements have smashed up shops and monuments in those few weeks the movement has radicalized and these these announcements are not enough to stop the movement overnight specially as its roots go back in they ks off policy . in the qualities between their eateries and regions in france the prime minister told parliament he understood where the frustration came from. behind the anger expressed on the way people are paid you are where we are all aware that there is something else that there is anger of a been left behind on the lack of perspective that there was the choice conscious or not to lead the public that sleep that there was the choice conscious or not for years. questions as they were arranged for example the question of massive unemployment. the government says it's concessions including scrapping fuel tax

rises will cost more than eleven billion dollars that risks pushing the budget deficit to three point four percent. passed the news three percent. there's no official leadership. protest so it's difficult to gauge a majority opinion on what president had to say all the concessions he made for that we may have to wait until saturday and what's being called act five to see how many people turn out and protest. al-jazeera on the outskirts of paris being called the guardian's time magazine has named several journalists as its person of the year among them is the murdered saudi journalist. shook she's been honored for speaking out against the brutality of his country's regime he was killed in the saudi consulate in istanbul in october the reuters journalists. who were also honored they've been detained in myanmar for their coverage of the hinge
