hello. this is bbc news. i'm gavin grey. our top stories: spain's government says the terror cell behind last week's attacks has been dismantled. but a massive manhunt continues for one key suspect. several members of thejihadist cell came from small town in the pyrenees. a shocked community searches for answers. tens of thousands march in boston in opposition to a planned right—wing rally. president trump applauds the protestors for standing up to bigotry and hate. at least 23 people are killed and more than 60 injured after a train derails in the indian state of uttar pradesh. and a british man injured while helping victims of finland's first terrorist attack insists he's "no hero." spain's interior minister says the terror cell behind the attacks there this week has been broken up.

officials believe the cell consisted of 12 young men, most of them moroccan nationals. one man, younes abu yaaquoub, is still at large. police searching for him say they believe he may have been the driver of the van which mowed down so many people on thursday in barcelona, killing 13 and injuring 130. from there, james reynolds reports. the king of spain, determined to show that barcelona has nothing to fear. symbols of rule from the capital, madrid, are not always welcome in this, the catalan region, but in the aftermath of thursday's attack, felipe vi is met with cheers. this footage from a museum security camera appears to show part of the assault on las ramblas. the attackers' van tears down the avenue.

passers—by run for their lives. the authorities say that they have now broken up the network responsible for the attacks in both barcelona and the coastal town of cambrils. at first investigators believed that one of the cambrils suspects, 17—year—old, moussa oukabir, was also the barcelona attacker, but now they are investigating the possibility that 22—year—old younes abouyaaqoub may have carried out the attack himself. he is currently at large. the authorities have announced greater security at spain's borders and also in places where tourists gather. the new measures come too late for andrew cadman, from britain and australia, he has flown in to find his 7—year—old son, julian. there is still no confirmed words on the boy's whereabouts or condition. these survivors told their stories to the queen and king, here on a tour of barcelona's hospitals.

translation: this violent, cowardly attack, this assassination that has killed and injured many people and has moved us all, will not defeat asked or our values. barcelona, for so long free from attacks, now has to rewrite its own history. the mayor has opened a book of condolence. i came to express my sympathies with the victims, srgio martinez told me, i also wanted to show that we are not afraid and that we will carry on. tonight, on las ramblas, the simple act of going out for a walk becomes a powerful symbol and this city finds itself following the rhythm of mourning and defiance so familiar to the rest of this continent. james reynolds, bbc news, barcelona. our security correspondent, gordon corera, is in barcelona.

he told me claims that the terror cell behind the attacks have been broken up is bringing a sense of reassurance. that was the words of spain's interior minister today, when he said that the threat level was not going to be raised to its highest level. although the spanish government says the cell that carried out these attacks has now been dismantled, little is known about this small group of young men, mainly of moroccan descent, who apparently became radicalised and planned their attacks in the most unlikely of places. there is still one individual on the run. the manhunt is still ongoing. there are still unanswered questions. for example, how did this group go undetected for a year? was because it was a small group of local men, young man, from a town,

they radicalise each other and formed a closed group the authorities did not know about? or was it because there were some links provided from abroad, perhaps morocco, with family links, iraq, syria, islamic state. that is still an unanswered question. several of the men behind the attacks grew up in the small town of ripoll, north of barcelona. most were the children of moroccan immigrants. among them younes abu—yaaqoub, now on the run, who, as we've heard, may have driven the van in the barcelona attack. our correspondent, wyre davies, has been to ripoll, to speak to people there about the extremists who lived among them. the small chocolate box mountain town of ripoll in the foothills of the spanish pyrenees, the last place you would expect as the breeding ground for a gang of radical islamist militants preparing to commit mayhem and murder. at least seven young men from this small town either died during the attacks or have been arrested since thursday. they include moussa oukabir, said aallaa and mohamed hychami. all three were killed by police in cambrils,

on friday morning. also from ripoll is younes abouyaaqoub, who is still on the run. at this small mosque in ripoll, where the boys and young men sometimes prayed, but were by no means the devout, community leaders were almost speechless, distraught by what has happened. we did not really know the boys or what they were up to, says this man who has been in charge of the mosque since the imam left two months ago. they sometimes came to pray, he says, but if we'd known their plans we would have gone straight to the police. on the main road into town today, armed officers checking cars and lorries as spain hunts down all of those responsible for the attacks in barcelona and cambrils. although the spanish government says the cell that carried out these

attack has now been dismantled, little is actually known about this small group of young men, mainly of moroccan descent, who apparently became radicalised and planned their attacks in the most unlikely of places. in the last two days, several suspects and known associates of the attackers have been arrested. the former imam's home has been searched and no one left in ripoll, a town where everyone knows everyone, can quite believe it. at the beginning the people in ripoll were shocked, because in a big town, in a big city, it is easy to find isolated communities, but not in a place like ripoll, because most young people participate in many activities. a 22—year—old son of this town is currently the most wanted man in spain. after what he and the others are accused of doing, it will take ripoll yea rs to recover. wyre davies, bbc news.

nation. some would say, it was a free—speech rally and they are entitled to do that under the constitution. perhaps you should have just let them get on with it?|j never disagree that everyone has the right to say what they would like to say under free speech, however, right to say what they would like to say underfree speech, however, if you have the right to say those things, we have the right to respond. that rate never included the ability to marginalise other individuals and their right to liberty. what did you see personally while you with a? while i was there, our while you with a? while i was there, u while you with a? while i was there, our group was while you with a? while i was there, ourgroup was in while you with a? while i was there, our group was in such a spirit of solidarity, peace, love. one of the best moment that i noticed was that, even when there was a scrimmage, a number of people were running towards whatever was happening, the group started yelling, do not engage, do not engage. all of the

preparation we have been doing to make sure that people were able to have nonviolent direct action was very clear. that is difficult when tensions are running high? of course, but that is why preparation was so important. one of our common themes was to make sure that we a lwa ys themes was to make sure that we always had peaceful engagement. the intent was never to confront them head on, but we were sharing the same space in public. if further so—called free—speech rallies are planned in boston, would you intend to organise more counter protests?|j think to organise more counter protests?” think what is most important about free speech is that we convey the message that free speech should actually be constructive conversation. constructive conversation. constructive conversation involves both sides. hopefully they got the message that if we are going to have those conversations, and we should start

having those conversations to work through some of these belief systems and ideologies that can no longer exist, then we have to actually allow both sides to save the hard things and allow that to be the foundation to hopefully work towards better solutions for us, systematically. thank you. thank you for having me. a british paramedic severely injured while trying to save the life of a woman stabbed in finland on friday has told the bbc he's not a hero. hassan zubier said he did his best and no more. i saw the city injuries she had. i got hold of her artery, stopped the bleeding. but the man came back. he tried to stab me, i kicked him. he ran away. he came back. and then i felt someone hitting me in the back. people screamed. i was trying to save her life.
