>> the trial norway has been waiting for, justice for the vick -- justice for victims of last july's massacre. and anders breivik says he admits to killing 77 people but not guilty. >> totally innocent, i acknowledge the action but i do not pleeled guilty. >> hello welcome to the world of news and opinion. also in the program, 18 hours that shook kabul. more international observers arrive in syria. they open talks with the

government about access to areas of conflict. early morning in washington and 1:00 in the afternoon in oslow where the trial of anders breivik is underway. reviving memories of the day last july when he killed 77 people in a bomb attack and shooting degree. breivik has admitted to the killing but denied responsibility. he made a far right wing salute. his first word? well, he refused to recognize the court saying it had obtained its mandate from political parties but support multiculturalism. we can go straight to the course now where the case has returned after a lunch break. this is the prosecutor making his opening statement. that's been going on for some hours today. let's just listen to what he has to say. >> when the police investigated

or checked mr. breivik's computer, they found that there were 189 emails at 1409. 1,002 emails had gone out. of the 1,002 that received the email, 44 for various reasons could not receive the attachments. the email with was thus received by some 900 plus recipients. the natural question in this context is how did breivik get hold of these 8,000 addresses. here, breivik stated that he mainly used two accounts on facebook for this purpose.

he sent friend requests to a lample number of persons. and where this was accepted, he included the email address in this pool, which finally made up more than 8,000 email addresses. furthermore he stated that the addresses were gathered over a four month period from november 2009 until february 2010. now, the clock is ticking, starting to approach 3:00. and breivik is in the bomb car, and he's headed for the government office buildings. here we have included an overview image of the government

office building showing the relevant building, and here the names have been added to each individual building, andly quickly review some of them. you can see the h block, or the high rise building. this includes the prime minister's office and the ministry of justice and public security. in the y block, the finance, the s block health services, plus the ministry of labor and inclusion. and where the ministries of patroleum and energy, that's where they had their offices. in r-5, all together seven ministries were located. ministry of transport, of cultural affairs, of local

government, agriculture food, government reform, church and church affairs. in this work, in this area are of course a number of cameras. so the movements of the defender in the period are well documented and i will soon show you a film of roughly 60 minutes showing the bomb explosion. first you will see an animated version of the incident, of the durrigse of slightly more than one minute. and then you will see images from the actual incident. then you will see him driving, parking the car in front of the h block and there are also

images of where he moved towards the other car used to get away. then you will see images of the area prior to the explosion and during that sequence you will note that the image splits into four parts. you will see the image from four different angles. and then the cameras are run at full speed. this is to show movements in the area before the bomb went off. sometime before the bomb explodes at 15:25:22, the film reverts to one camera angle and normal speed. the actual bomb blast comes about halfway in to and then you will see images from other cameras showing the effects of the explosion.

as the court initially stated, there are several affected parties who do not wish to see this part of the opening statement. we will therefore take a break for a few seconds that those who wish may leave the room that they are in. mr. holden, for the information of the norwegian broadcasting corporation, do parts of films show breivik placing the bomb? or is it the film in its entirety that may not be broadcasted? our impression is that it's the animated. the first part may be played. and so then we would have a

break, so that those who would leave the room can then leave the room and they will have a possibility to make their own necessary changes. is that possible? thank you. >> we're listening to animation of the part of oslo where anders breivik planted, where he planted the bomb. you can see there his vehicle. there were, i think, the prosecutor said four cameras so they have a very, very good

picture of exactly what went on, and the time in fact was something like 15:25, 3:25 in the afternoon when this was happening. so a minute worth of this animation to show what exactly happened before the explosion took place. they are in fact going to show the actual footage, along with other broadcasters, we may well not show for obvious reasons. so that was the reconvening of the court case this afternoon. we've seen an animation of breivik's moufments that fatal afternoon. let's find out what's been going on all day from this report from phillipa thomas. >> we know anders breivik has looked forward to this day in

court. he came in calm, smiling, eager to prop gate his far right views. his readiness to give offense reflect what his lawyer reports to be breivik's only regret that he didn't kill more people. he clearly relished the media presence at a trial of which almost 800 journalists have been acredited. breivik has admitted to this, planting a car bomb at the heart of norway's government last july. and to the carnage wreaked on the island as he carried out a shooting spree amongst terrified teenagers at a labor party youth camp. only minutes into the proceedings this morning, breivik made his first political statement. >> i do not recognize the norwegian court. you've got your mandate from political parties who support multiculturalism. >> his objection was recognized and under norwegian law, breivik

will have five days about which to speak about the motives for his massacre. >> now i will ask for the defendant to stand up. >> first he heard the reading of the indictments against him for terrorist attacks. then, the prosecutor listed the names of the 77 and the awful manner of their death. >> by this clotion he killed the following eight persons who also sustained extensive blast injuries. as follows. born in 1979, he was at the entrance and close to the van and died immediately of massive injuries caused by the shock wave and objects. >> breivik was asked how he pleaded. his answer beliefs that his targets were legitimate because norway supports immigration. >> i acknowledge the act but i

do not plead guilty and i claim i was doing it in self defense. >> much of the case will delve into the killer's state of mind, the chilling hunting bag that he devised as he stock piled weapons from 15 suppliers in four countries. they pointed out where he lives in oslo, even screening the room where he developed his theories. only at one point did breivik lose control of his emotions. but only he knows why. phillipa thomas, "bbc news." >> that's the summary of the proceedings so far this morning. the court is still in session, but what people in the court is being shown is some footage of the moments when the bomb exploded in central oslo. for obvious reasons we're not going to broadcast that. we will go back to the court as

soon as that's over and bring you live update, of course, throughout the next hour or so. and indeed through the day as long as the trial goes on. let's take a look at some of the other stories making headlines now around the world today. afghan president car zoor says -- afghan president karzai made his first comment about the 18 hour attack on enclaves, he also said afghan security forces prove themselves capable of defending their country and providing security. one of the insurgents who was captured alive is said to have told police that the coordinated attacks were orchestrated by militants based in pakistan. our correspondent has been to the building where they launched the assault. >> we've finally been allowed inside the seven story building right in the heart of kabul.

this was used as the base to launch attack targeting british and german embassies and several government buildings. right here is the hand grenade left by the insurgents. it just shows you how well organized this attack was. national security forces have taken huge stock piles of weapons, such as hand grenades and rocket grenades. this building allows you to have a view of the entire city, especially the diplomatic area. so the insurgents have a huge advantage, a launching pad and they could have easily targeted all of those locations which they did in a 16 hour gun battle. >> and still to come on g.m.t., the bbc investigate allegations

against multibillion dollar mining company glen core. growing tensions amid beijing in the south china sea. about 7,000 troops will be involved in the exercises. either on the northern ireland or in the west. china, which lays claim to the waters is likely to be watching events closely. >> about 4,500 american troops, and 2,000 of their philippine counter parts will be spending the next 11 days doing a series of different deals. they'll be looking at what to do in case of a natural disaster or emergency here. but also simulating a complex situation. the war games are an annual event for the philippine troops to gain from the american expertise. also a chance to work with own of their closest and

long-standing allies in the region. the code name of the exercise is a philippine word which means shoulder to shoulder. the games are being closely watched elsewhere too. nearby is a string of small islands at the center of a territory dispute. they are vastly inhabited but fiercely contested. six nations lay claim to these eye lands, especially the huge oil and gas deposits thought to lie around them. one of the main is china, and they're unlikely to be happy that the game is taking place here, nor that the philippines seems to be forging ever closer relationships to the united states. >> people have voted in a second round of a presidential election. voters were choosing a replacement for the incumbent who lost the first round last month. the contenders are francisco

gutierrez and one another. both took part in the struggle against ind indonesian rule. the headlines, anders breivik who killed 77 people in a gun and bomb attack in norway last year is standing trial in oslo. afghan security forces on high alert after a coordinated taliban attack on four cities including the capitol, kabul. let's catch up now on the business news. let's start with spain, because the cost of borrowing, a country in trouble we know that, but today the cost of borrowing for the country, it went up. >> absolutely. this is within the bond market, the secondary market for bonds and they went up about 6%. why is that important? because when spain has to go to

the market, it means it's paying more for its debt. it's not the sheer volume of debt that's out there. the worry with spain is the annual shortfall is simply too large. and the current prime minister is not going to be doing enough to shorten to narrow that shortfall. this is a concern. let's take a look at what commentator had to say about that. >> not going back to the where we were in december of last year. not unlikely that the markets will test again the resilence by central banks and a likely outcome of all that is probably an interveengs because they desperately need to avoid it. i -- so this under minds it and

puts a damper on the better news coming out of the united states. >> now, the world bank presidency will be announced today. very controversial. normally kind of back room deals, but a lot of criticism this time looks like the american's going to get it. >> yeah, you know, for the last 66 years there has been no challenge at all. it is simply a u.s. post that gets very simple. and the head of the i.m.f. is european posting. but this time around there were two strong candidates. one the finance minister of nigeria, and also a clump bee yan. he said it's a little bit of a surprise for me. but it looks like the person who is going to get the role is kim yong kim. he is america, yes, he's

originally from korea, but he was raised in america. he is a doctor, so there will be a different focus on the world bank. >> assuming that he wins and that is the wide spread assumption at the moment, he can certainly acquire leadership. but it might take time and we can't be as confident as we would be if the entire process were more open and transparent. >> so he's going to require the backing of europe but we can pretty much see it. >> all right, thanks very much. thank you. now the first observers from the united nations are in syria. a u.s. spokesman told the bbc that a six strong advance army would make contact with the

syrian government and opposition before beginning field work. more are expected to arrive on monday. numbers will build up to about 30 by the end of the week. well, after arriving in damascus late on sunday, one of the u.n. monitors spoke to the arab news channel. >> and here we are, no delays. >> all right. and what's the plan for tomorrow? >> the plan tomorrow is that we try to organize and try to have trans porstation -- >> that was one of the u.n. in damascus. a mining giant stands accused of dumping raw acid and profiting from children working in a

copper mine in a democratic republic of crmp -- of congo. john sweeney has the report. >> has anyone heard of glencore? it may not be a household name but it trades a tenth of the wheat that comes onto the world market, a quarter of the barley and half of the copper. when it was on the london stock exchange last year, five of its partners became billionaires. >> we care about the environment, we care about the people, we care about all these issues in which we operate. >> but glencore's copper refinery in the democratic republic of congo tells a different story. to reach the copper, the rock is

burned with acid. the result is an acid water fall. you can see the pollution, you can see how bad it looks but you can't smell it. and i promise you, standing here, it stinks to high heaven! this whole place stinks of acid! >> glencore say the pollution started long before the company took over the refinery, and it has now been stopped. here's some water i took. would you like to wash your hands with it? >> i can see what it is. >> yes, would you like to wash your hands? >> that's what people have dumped into the river. >> so far the company has made no commitment to compensate the villagers for the acid in their water. that's not the only complaint they're facing in the congo. this company closed the mine four years ago, but secret filming revealed hundreds of miners working on site after a

local firm started working there. some of them were only children. >> it is illegal for anyone under 18 to work on a mine. glencore says it is going on without its permission and the mine has been taken over by freelancers. after tracking paper work, they found strong evidence that some ended up in the glen core melter. >> it is arriving there, they are profiting from child labor. but with assistance in place, i am very sure that these people can prove otherwise how material other than our own can be arriving there. if it is arriving there, i have no idea how it can be getting there. >> glencore is about to become even more powerful. it's announced plans for a

merger with another mining giant. but serious questions remain about how one of the worlds most powerful companies puts ethics into practice. >> a reminder of our top story here, the man accused of killing 77 people in norway last july has pleaded not guilty at the eping of his trial. anders breivik admitted carrying out the attacks but denied criminal responsibility saying he was acting in self defense. he said he didn't recognize the court because it was dependent on parties who supported multiculturalism. the court is still in session, the first day of the trial, and the court has been shown cctv footage and an animation of breivik's movements on the day he planted that bomb in central oslo. well, that's all for the moment. stay with us here on "bbc world news," there's plenty more to

come. >> make sense of international news at bbc.com/news. >> funding was made possible by -- the freeman foundation of new york, stowe, vermont, and honolulu, newman's own foundation, and union bank. union bank. and shell. >> this is kim. about to feel one of his favorite sensations. at shell, we're developing more efficient fuels in countries like malaysia that can help us get the most from our energy resources. let's use energy more efficiently. let's go.
