7:02 pm
morning shooting and killing one passenger and severely injuring the driver he later opened fire on a group of police officers who were out jogging and wounding one of them in the shoulder the gunmen then drove to the nearby town of trip where he stormed a supermarket and killed two people and eye witness described what he saw there. i went shopping with my wife and sister in law after some time we heard an explosion well several. i saw a man lying on the floor and another person who was very agitated on with a handgun in one hand and a knife in the other yelling. after that i took my wife and my sister in law and some customers nearby and were going to look for shelter i put them in a butcher's fridge closed from the inside more details have been emerging about this series of attacks in the south of france which cumulated in a hostage taking situation of around four hours in the town of tire some
7:03 pm
confirmation now about who the attacker was the interior minister saying it's a twenty six year old they do one locked him who is a french. national who is known for petty theft and some small drug crimes he was under police surveillance we understand however there was no suggestion the interior minister said that he had been radicalized and in fact it's been claimed that the action that happened on friday in france was completely unexpected and what's also been emerging is more detail about what happened inside that hostage situation inside the supermarket in that small town of treb we understand that when gunfire was first heard some of the supermarket employees tried to get some of the customers out of the shop there were apparently around fifty there when not going to fire was first heard some were able to make it to
7:04 pm
safety others then of course became the hostages hundreds of police descended on the town to try and remedy this situation police first of all try to negotiate with the twenty six year old hostage taker apparently he had said that this was vengeance for what has happened in syria and he told. made demands such as the release of one of the men accused of carrying out the paris attack in two thousand and fifteen well one hundred thirty eight people were killed now we also have been hearing about some of the heroism that took place today was one of the offering to swap himself for one of the hostages when he did so he took a mobile phone with him and we understand he kept that line open and when the police officers heard more gunfire from inside the shop they then stormed it and at that point killed the hostage taker. former british intelligence officer
7:05 pm
says the fact that the gunman was under police surveillance exposes a failure in law enforcement. for passing that we're seeing emerging across europe over the last few years of people carrying out these low tech type attacks with high. rates. of course on the radar of at least the police if not indeed of the intelligence agencies but for some reason they're not being watched carefully enough they're not being monitored carefully enough and being followed around. and they're allowed to get more radicalized and carry out these are appalling deeds it's hard to see what more fronts can do i mean they had a state of emergency declared after the attacks all the power is still there in france they just change the name they change the terminology and yet all those powers are still preventing the security agencies and police from protecting their french citizens so i fail to see how much more they can do this was the first act of terrorism in france since president lifted the country's almost

a heavy police presence in and throughout the evening. there has been swift condemnation of the england fans online one man wrote to vote he would love to take his son to watch england but i will not happen because he says we have zero class another accuses supporters of embarrassing themselves ahead of this summer's world cup in russia a country which often gets accused of football hooliganism england manager gareth southgate gave us his views on friend violence so we keep pointing the finger at russia. where we're going to be guests in the next couple of months but we haven't resolved the issue in our own country and until we do i think we should stay far enough far enough those things elsewhere or to football host stan collymore says checks are in place to ensure that troublemakers are kept away from the world cup. struggle. to moscow to get in close you have to have

a fun idea i. guess not i do you have to buy a ticket to buy thinking you have to pay off on travels or be official england supporters group of which circles check stop. something fun for a russia only estimates around sometimes. we'll break a very wealthy high of not laugh now down the problem eat even the shingles owing particularly so this week something grand plans on in the european championships in two thousand and sixteen. if you will but it's really going from london to politics whether the football match you know i still go to brussels or burning and travel for a long trying to be quite and that's where the cauldron like. donald trump has appointed a new national security adviser john bolton is a former u.s. ambassador to the u.n. known for his hawkish stance on both north korea and iran.

pearl. secretary building in new york has thirty eight stories if you launch ten stories today it would make a difference. the russians have walked all over the obama administration for eight years it's really been a pathetic performance if you make them feel pain and others feel pain then the possibility of deterring future conduct like this increases that's what we need to do. the caliphate that ice is now holds king abdullah of jordan who is not simply the muslim king of
7:11 pm
a muslim country unlike our president i. am. your point linda was announced on twitter and typical trump style the president also made use of the social media platform earlier this month when he fired his secretary of state rex tillerson and he came up and takes a look at the latest arrive. he is the third national security advisor to the donald trump administration in the last fourteen months and john bolton is a long time advocate of the use of force against iran and against north korea now
7:12 pm
those are two countries that are rather vital for the trumpet ministration in the coming months in may donald trump will have to weigh in on the iran deal whether or not it will continue and furthermore the usa is on the verge of carrying out the historic meeting the first meeting between a head of state of the usa and the leader of the democratic people's republic of korea so at this point a lot of questions remain so the fact that john bolton has been selected is rather interesting i think they want to make peace i think it's time so it could be a long and unproductive meeting or it could be assured unproductive meeting we hope that these new measures directed at the arena of dictatorship will compel the government to re-evaluate its pursuit of terror at the expense of its people well i think he's on the verge of making a mistake i think his advisors are pushing him in the wrong direction you know are destroyed the certification question is utterly irrelevant john bolton served as
7:13 pm
the u.s. ambassador to the united nations under the administration of george w. bush and his appointment was quite controversial at that time for statements he had made harshly criticizing the united nations can trail donald trump was quite critical of military intervention isn't by the united states saying that he wanted to stop toppling regimes however john bolton is a long time advocate for military interventions around the world so big developments on the horizon regarding iran and north korea. well side from north korea and iran john bolton has made some highly aggressive remarks about moscow as well he described alleged kremlin meddling as an act of war against america but his appearance in a russian gun advocacy video five years ago has left many people confused about his actual views were the russian national government to grant a broader right to bear arms to its people it would be creating a partnership with its citizens that would better awhile for the protection of

to kiev and shared with the u.k.'s ministry of defense i don't really believe the ministry of defense should be involved in a company one arm of which at least he's engaged in a series of campaigns around the world of propaganda and manipulation apparently and political interference secondly i don't really see why the ministry of defense is in any case spending huge amounts of money. on a propaganda work and finally the question of secrecy i mean apparently this company was given access to top secret information and this seems to me to be an extremely. worrying revelation it's likely that the next chapter in the cambridge on the little scandal won't be its links to facebook but to governments around the

the day the motive has always been a lack of value for black life or black bodies and so it's easy to shoot first ask questions later sort things out after the facts come up with nearer to the evidence that don't fit what actually was taking place during the time of the incident so when you come out with the story and say yes he had a good or at the in the next story was he had a tool bar or crowbar then the next story was he had a branch that took find out that he was shot with a cell phone in his hand we want to see those officers prosecuted for their decision to shoot their guns twenty shots we could no longer live with and be satisfied with officers being fired or given slaps on the wrist for murdering people in our unity and that does it for me this hour i'll be back at the top the hour with more news trying to trash will stay with us.
