twin attacks in mosques kill 137. isis claims responsibility. we'll have the latest next. is our armts secure as we like to think they are. finally we'll explain why someone dressed up as the stig is riding on a tank in london.

this is "cnn newsroom." it is just passed it noon in yemen's capital clal where the terror group isis carried out a series of bombings at a mosque killing and wounding hundreds of people. if true it could mark a new front. nick paton walsh explains in this report. we have to warn you the images you will see are graphic. >> reporter: staggering death toll over 130 death and 300 injured. the hospital struggling to cope with the influx of the wounded appealing for blood donations. these blasts hitting at the busiest time of the work to key shia mosques. senior clerics and leaders there wounded, one senior clerical

leader, in fact killed it's said by these explosions. the first hitting crowds plaster casted were use today smuggle in the explosives by the suicide bombers. after the first blast struck and rescuers rushed in a second device outside each of these mosques targeting those rescuers. thot that perhaps is behind the number of deaths. it adds to the instability and unrest where the government was swept out of power with the houthi movement. it is that element of sectarianism. these were shia who were the target here in their mosques. it is thought the extremisms were behind it. that is being used. but the prime suspect many would suspect, al qaeda, they say it

was not then. you can debate that as much as you like. the troubling issue is what we heard from isis today on written and audio form through channels they have used in the past it adds weight to the possibility that isis were behind these blasts. in the past they have been known to have a limited capability in yemen. dozens perhaps only pledging their allegiance to the isis leader. the potential they have given attacks like this. they are concerned. they have been able to find a foot hold that is engulfing yemen now. the u.s. embassy closed there. the notion that isis is using instability to find another a place they can call home will be disturbing to those who don't want to see any violence. many worried in yemen. we're seeing a new chapter, we've seen instability but

perhaps the sunni shia violence is engulfing the middle east may have found a new home in yemen. nick paton walsh, beirut. three days after the horrific attack in museum in tunisia some bodies lay unidentified in a morgue there. 23 people were killed and at least a dozen of them were tourists aboard cruise ships. some of them have yet to be identified. four italians three french citizens japanese and spaniards are among the dead. some survivors are sharing their stories. phil black talked to a survive. take a look at this. >> reporter: these are the panicked scenes as security forces arrived at the museum. by that time the gunmen had killed many people and moved deeper inside the complex. >> i was testified. >> reporter: this man witnessed the start of the massacre.

>> he started to shoot everyone in front of me. >> reporter: security forces arrived in numbers. after killing the gunmen they were cheered as heroes. one of the attackers lived here. his family is confused. grieving and angry. his uncle says it's true he carried out this terrorist attack. he was killed. we don't have his body back. he was also a victim of terrorism. his family says the morning of the attack he drank coffee with them like any other day. families in tunisia and across the globe are now struggling to understand why that normal ritual was followed hours later by horrific violence. phil black, cnn, tunis. >> as you know tunisia is a country rich with historical treasures. its location on the north african coast makes a huge draw

for international visitors. many people worry the museum attack could devastate the tourism industry. jessica ring reports. >> reporter: hands join across tunisia's beaches. ruins. mountains. this ad pushed to get people to visit the country, one that heavily relies on tourrism. some one in five people need it to make a living. after the attacks that took the lives of 25 people most of them tourists in the capital this week there are fears visitors will stop coming. amid warnings from u.s. and uk gufts many are pledging i will go. from china, mexico russia ukraine, the united states. thousands of messages posted online standing with the victims of the attack. along with hashtags that have

points such as when sanctions against iran will be lifted. several negotiators say they've made good progress. u.s. house speaker jane boehner plans to visit israel. he was boehner who invited netanyahu to deliver a speech to a joint meeting of u.s. congress earlier this month. just this week netanyahu won reelection. during his campaign he said there will be no two state solution in the middle east. netanyahu's statement led president obama to warn he might reassess u.s. relationship with israel. jim acosta has the details. >> reporter: if there's one thing that's clear after president obama's phone call with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu, it's a single conversation won't repair a damaged relationship. netanyahu has said in three interviews he believed inn palestinian statehood despite his preelection flip-flop in a

desperate appeal for votes. i haven't changed netanyahu told npl. that's not good enough for the white house. >> why not take his on his word on that. >> the question is which one? >> his latest. >> okay. >> reporter: josh earnest declined to say whether netanyahu clarified his statement. >> that's something -- the you can ask my israeli counterpart about what the prime minister said. >> don't you know what the president heard? >> i'm not saying i don't know. i will allow my israeli counterpart to describe the views his boss conveyed in that phone call. >> reporter: despite tensions john boehner plans to visit israel. it will come around the deadline for a nuclear deal between iran u.s. and world powers. >> this moment may not come

again soon. i believe our nations have a historic opportunity to resolve this issue peacefully. an opportunity we should not miss. >> reporter: in a message to the iranian people the president urged leaders in tehran to come to an agreement and released a statement calling for the release of americans imprisoned. secretary of state john kerry who spent the week working on a nuclear agreement sounded optimistic. >> we'll be back next week. we may a lot of progress. >> reporter: the white house had said before netanyahu's victory that the president would not meet with the prime minister weeks prior to the election. with the voting now over aides to the president say they won't rule out a future meeting. noting the two leaders have much to discuss. jim acosta cnn, the white house. investigators are trying to determine why an armed man attacked screeners at new orleans's louie arm strong airport. officials say 63-year-old richard white stormed through

two security checkpoints. sheriff's officials say the man had a machete and sprayed two tsa officers with wasp spray. a sheriff's deputy opened fire shooting white three times. white was taken to a hospital where authorities say he underwent surgery. the incident in new orleans turns a spotlight on to airport security. employees work day in and day out without be screened. there is no national system raising fears that some could slip through the net. >> reporter: 54,000 employees at los angeles international airport report to work without mandatory bag checks no body screening. and literally hundreds of doors like this one, where a badge and a code gets you right on to the tarmac. think that's scary? put yourself in the shoes of l.a.'s airport police chief.

i got to ask you about the loan wolf scenario. what you have in place with hundreds of access doors and the screening you go through, there is really -- it doesn't appear to me to be production against the loan wolf scenario. >> when you say loan wolf are you talking about a loan wolf that has access to the employee? >> reporter: that guy there that walked in with a backpack and a mug. we don't know what's in his backpack or mug or in his heart or head. >> that's correct. >> reporter: does that concern you? >> it concerns me all the time. with 54,000 badged employees that work at a large airport like this there is no way you will have the ability to screen every single person that comes to work in the airport. >> reporter: l.a. tries to minimize the risk by maximizing random checks like this one. airport workers never know exactly when or where spot checks could occur.

employees also face background checks yearly updates. and a system built around everyone watching out for anyone who might seem suspicious. but the chief admits nothing is fool proof. >> at airports across the country, we have not really seen anything that could prevent what atlanta went through, which was guns being smuggled on to airports. >> i agree. i agree. in any airport throughout the united states and here also there is never a 100% guarantee that somebody couldn't who wanted to do something illegal or wrong, couldn't make that happen. >> reporter: what happened in atlanta, is causing a reaction at airports across the country. and you can see why. these are guns. guns smuggled on to as many as 20 flights by one delta airline baggage handler. that baggage handler took the

guns to work in a backpack which was never screened. motive for the crime, pure profit selling the guns in northeast cities. but atlanta heartsfield jackson general manager testified to a congressional committee the real danger the gun running exposed is the threat of potential terrorism. >> in the last six months for example, we have started to see that people are being recruited to engage in terrorist acts. people are being recruited from the united states. so now we have a greater insider threat. >> reporter: atlanta is moving towards full airport employee screening, but it hasn't happened yet. a cnn investigation found that only two major u.s. airports miami and orlando, conduct full employee screenings requiring employees to pass through metal detectors like passengers. airports say moving toward full

employee screening would be too costly and too time consuming for airport workers to wait in line like you and i. but some members of congress just aren't buying that. demanding the department of homeland security review policies to make sure airports aren't leaving a door open to a possible disaster. drew griffin, cnn, los angeles. and still to come right here on "cnn newsroom." pope francis is on the move today. up next details on his latest trip that concludes a visit to the most dangerous place in naples in italy. that's just ahead.

if you remember there was a total solar eclipse on friday. that's when the moon blocked the sun and its shadow fell on the earth. did the solar eclipse live up to the hype? it depends on what part of the world you were in as i found out. >> reporter: the crowds gathered at the ubservatory in greenwich. every member of the family kitted out, ready for the spectacle. i've got my solar viewer but unfortunately it's very, very cloudy. it's getting darker. >> it is. you don't notice it until the moon covers quite a percentage of the sun's disk.

i've got an app here called sky guide. it works on android. i will hold it up and you can see the sun and the moon. if i freeze it i can zoom in on it. so we can get a partial eclipse of the sun. that is almost -- >> how much do you think we've got left? >> a few more minutes. notice how dark it is in the sky. >> the moment came and it went. the light did fade slightly but for many here it was a bit anticlimatic. >> reporter: for many of the students come here expecting to see a solar eclipse, it just hasn't happened. they have turned out with those glasses. they're putting them on. let's have a look. how do you put them on? what do you see? >> nothing. >> reporter: there it is they're seeing nothing. still, it's the experience. else where in europe the celesteulate moment lived up to the hype. in the far north, people don't

seem disappointed. the norwegian islands had clear skies and a view that made some dance for joy. the best vant nl point of all was from space itself. these images were captured by the european space agency satellite and showed the shadow of the moon passing over the sun. back in greenwich, despite the weather causing disappointment for some, in true british style, the party mood wasn't dampened. >> i got a virtual eclipse. there were clouds in london but the skies did manage to clear for other european cities. our meteorologist is here. all i got was a virtual eclipse. disappointing for me. >> you never got to see the actual shadow? >> not even darkness. >> at least we have pictures to help tell the story. this was in vienna.

another photographer captured the entire moment in phases. i want to pay attention to two noemts just before and just after totality. totality is when the moon covers the entire disk of the sun and it creates this effect we call the diamond ring effect. you see that ring on the outside of the sun? and only a few beams of light just on the outer edges? it looks like a diamond ring if you ask me. cool stuff to see. you know what? what's not so great is what's happened on the east coast of the united states. even though the calendar says spring it looks and feels like winter in the big apple. take a look at the video coming out of new york city recently. people are doing the quick brisk walk from work to subway and from the subway to work. this is all thanks to a clipper system that moved through the region brought some fresh snow to central park and lower manhattan. fortunately the system is on its way out.

there is cold air settling in behind it. and we're talking about wind chill values dropping below freezing for a few locations thanks to the cold front. we have a rainmaker across the gulf coast states. we'll talk about that in just a moment. here is what you'll wake up to on saturday morning. 29 degrees near new york city. but look at the single digit sunday morning wind chills across upstate new york. we've got the south by southwest festival taking place in austin texas, this weekend. look at all the rain moving through. we have flood watches and warnings stretching all the way into louisiana. some pockets of perhaps 2 even upwards of 6 inches of rainfall for a few of those gulf coastal areas. we'll be on the lookout and lesser amounts inland. i'm sorry the meteorologist here couldn't predict better weather for you. >> it's okay. it's london. i've have got used to it. thank you very much. pope francis is on his way to a large square in naples

let me update you on the top stories we're following this hour. a series of bombings at two mosques in yemen has killed at least 137 people and wounded more than 350. suicide bombers hid their explosives under plaster cast and blew themselves up inside the mosques. a car bomb exploded outside. isis is claiming responsibility. some of the victims from wednesday's bloody attack at the museum in tunisia play unidentified in the morgue there. at least a dozen of the 23 people were tourists visiting from two cruise ships. more than 90 decomposing bodies were found in a shallow grave in nigeria on friday. the bodies were discovered in a town recently liberated from boko haram by nigerian troops. the victims, some of them beheaded are believed to be residents who refused to join the terror group.

the terror group in tunisia is proof isis is covering north africa. should this come as a surprise the fact these men were trained in yemen? >> reporter: absolutely no surprise there. there has been a lot of concern about what has been going on in libya and the jihadi groups that have set up camp there h. of course both libya and tunisia do share a very porous border. it has been -- there's been a lot of smuggling across the border when it comes to weapons. it laz been a source of concern for the tunisian government. but if we look at what's been going on in libya since 2011 with the overthraw of the kadafi regime. the country has turned into a failed state. there is -- it's a very chaotic situation there. it has been awash in weapons and

militias. this has -- it created that fertile ground. it was ideal for various jihadist groups that we've seen over the past few years -- we've reported on this since 2012. they have etup bases in libya, training camps from different countries, including tunisia would come into libya and get their training and go to syria after that. and, of course we have seen the conflict the situation in libya, this instability spreading and spilling over across the borders. even back in 2013 january, the attack on an algerian oil facility across the border. training in libya, crossing the border and then back to libya. we're seeing it taking place in tunisia. underscoring what we have been hearing from neighboring countries. whether it's tunisia, egypt, algeria and others a real concern about the jihadist threat coming from libya.

isa. >> what's worrying is that some militias in several libyan cities have declared allegiance to isis even describing some of the young men as knights and promising more attacks. >> reporter: exactly. this is what we have seen over the past few months. it's not only these various jihadist groups we have seen taking hold in libya. in recent months we have seen a number of groups in the three different provinces of libya pledging allegiance to isis. and also very worrying has been the high profile attacks we have seen taking place in libya. the attack on the corinthia hotel in january killing a number of foreigners who were there. and a very worrying one was the horrific beheading video that we saw claimed by isis in a city in central libya. the beheading of the more than 20 egyptian christians.

very similar to the style of the beheading videos we have seen come out of isis in other parts like syria and iraq. a lot of concern about the growing threat and also about the fact that not much is being done, at least publicly to address the threat coming from libya that is not only threatening the neighboring countries, but also europe right across the mediterranean. >> she is in us for baghdad. she has covered libya extensively over the past few years. thank you very much. with rival factions competing for control in libya the task of fighting is left to local militias. they're asking local countries for ammunition. they're goal is not to fight but to feel secure. we have this report. >> reporter: not just another militia, here in benghazi these soldiers are welcomed as a new national army fighting the

jihadists who are proliferating in the chaos of post revolutionary libya. there are no cars on the roads to the airport because there is still fighting going on there. as we were traveling we heard the crack of sniper's bullets. the soldiers say they're beating back the militants of the islamic state. but the jihadists still control some neighborhoods in benghazi and certain buildings. it's not over. after catching infiltraters not all their enemies are islamic state but the ideology is spreading. translator: there are libyans with this extreme mentality. they have the same belief so we call them splaek state. they are professionals. they fought in iran syria. they were organized and are leading this war. they have many libyan members,

especially from the younger generation. >> reporter: the army leader wants europe and america to give him weapons. the attack by the islamic state in tunisia may strengthen his case. translator: i believe that they will spread in europe too if these countries don't give real and genuine aid to the libyan people especially the libyan army. what we need, we need weapons and ammunition only. the men are available. the army is growing every day and increasing in number. >> reporter: it's not so simple. this week a rival libyan army from the west of the country, started to fight islamic state in the town. you might have thought the two libyan forces east and west would unite against the jihadis. but far from it. they're bitter enemies. the attack in tunis should give impetus to peace talks between the libyan factions. will it? >> we have to take seriously the

information. it might be perfectly true that this terrorists have been trained and were coming from libya to tunisia. so these talks -- this is another important reason to convey a message to the participants in this talks. that libya and the terrorism in libya is becoming a problem for the libyans and is becoming a problem for the region. >> reporter: the islamic state posted this video threatening suicide bombs in tripoli. and libya with its endless supply of weapons is the ideal environment for them. in benghazi volunteers are picking up the litter that might not sound like a big deal but it is. before last october, jihadi groups held sway here. nearly 800 people were murdered. the new eastern army and police have brought a modecome of order. a lawyer who was in the front

line of the 2011 revolution against kadafi is organizing the cleanup squad. now i feel one million% safe. i some one of those who were on a target list. i'm walking around with no body guards and army. i'm a free woman thanks be to god. i'm a muslim. i went to mecca and visited. i wear a hijaw. why shouldn't i ask for police and army? the main demand for our revolution was the state of law. i'm a lawyer and they bombed the courthouses, why? it means you don't want law and order. this is what i want. ♪ >> reporter: young libyan men have become addicted to guns and conflict. these days even benghazi's revolutionary rapper wants security above all else.

translator: this is the best way to build an army the police and then the state. this is not just a solution. it's the only solution. >> reporter: law and order may be returning to benghazi but today, the force which has taken control here was fighting its rivals near tripoli. the only winners, are the islamic state. our thanks to our reporter for that report. an african-american college student who accused police of excessive force had to be taken to a health center on friday. a source tells cnn there was some concern over head swelling by his arrest on thursday. brian todd has more on the investigation. we want to warn you some images you are about to see might be disturbing. >> his head is bleeding. his head is bleeding. >> reporter: the arresting agents described him as

we've asked the state police to gather that information. >> reporter: a top virginia ledge stater is putting pressure on this agency. >> they're not appropriately trained. they don't have the proper protocols. they don't implement them appropriately. here is another example of them being overzealous in their enforcement. >> reporter: this man says it's time to consider taking weapons and the power to arrest away from abc agents. contacted by cnn, abc officials would not comment. this isn't the first time they've been accused of excessive force in april of 2013 a young university of virginia student was swarmed outside this store in harrisville. they surrounded her car. they thought she was buying alcohol underage. turns out all she had was sparkling water and cookie dough. on the 911 call from the student's call fear and
