fireworks correctly when the background quiet and the spirits of the right in the red square what's it like. the. rain to ring and i'm quite literally standing underneath the fire walk in the ferry center i've got to basel is right behind you can hear the crowds going wild and then to my boy i've got this tower i'm just a couple of moments ago we had the much anticipated 12 midnight chimes from the tower that's the most famous clock tower with then the kremlin's walls and it's really become the face of the symbol of new year here in russia so 2020 is officially upon us just now you saw on your screens of course the spectacular fireworks display that was just erupting right in front of my eyes over the river and all across the night's sky they launched this year a record 35000 solvers from 11 locations were actually right next to one of the locations and that was all of course to ensure that we had loosed spectacular the base unbeatable performance of light and color and of sounds that no one down here was left disappointed and if the reaction of that crowd just below us is anything to

teen minute walk down this street will take you directly to the red square and the gravel and so we are literally in the very heart of a mosque in this is where the shooting started earlier than thursday again it happened several hours ago but still details are not clear but what is confirmed at least one atthis be officer has been killed 2 others are still in critical condition and they are being treated at one of most good hospitals we heard earlier that russian authorities classified this attack as a terror attack but it was never very fied officially so we can all talk about this for sure but we hear from after israel also that there was only one person involved in this attack and he was killed in the operation so drowning many reports again some of them contradicting and i can see so many people here with their phones filming and police and on social media everybody feels journalists these days of course and i think that adds to that huge molecule of information that we receive all was happened what is right now happening so we should be very careful with that information so a get

plays nothing of course more tasking than the tree in front of the crowd and at the far end of red square towers above us this year at 22 meters high it's weighed down by an astonishing 3 and a half 1000 decorations and to top it all off the house overlooking 3 kilometers of light snaking the way all the way up to the start at the top and it's precisely this magical 5 that moscow has at this time of year that brings in on average 5000000 people to the capital in the holiday week many of them do of course choose to flock to the epicenter that is red square and you really can't blame them because a russian saying goes that if you see in the new year here on red square you are in for a year of good luck and who would want to pass up on that i will admit though some have probably opted for coziness and walked over a party along the kremlin walls and they'll be at home gathered with family and friends thinking champagne glasses feasting on traditional new year's dishes and of course exchanging gifts and tonight all across russia children will be looking out their windows and awaiting eagerly a

go beautiful red square just spit high and do what's the mood like. well no i don't know about you but i can't think of many better ways to usher out 2902020 as you said from the very heart of the russian capital i am in the center of moscow instantly recognizable some cathedral behind me and beyond the life of course the historic red square but tonight all eyes will be on that tower at that spot tower because a couple of minutes before midnight the russian president will give his new year's annual address and that's going to be broadcast on screens throughout the city and then at the stroke of midnight that is going to chime 12 times officially marking the start of the new year what follows in the heart on the heels is a spectacular fireworks display at the red mosque and just so you can appreciate how seriously they take that everything is meticulously planned out on a computer up beforehand state pay away with all the different variations before finally settling on the exact points from which they're going to launch this year an astonishing $5000.0

understanding of how central we are just a 15 minute walk down that road will take you directly to the red square and the kremlin so we are literally in the very heart of russia's capital and this is where the shooting happened earlier on thursday around 6 pm details are still not clear but war tasby no really confirmed one after as we all firsts are at least has been killed 2 others * are right now in critical condition and they're being treated at one of most hospitals right now and we hear from russia the sorority's that it was just one person behind the attack and he was killed in the operation not 3 people like we heard from initial reports and also there was an information that russian authorities classified * what happened as terror attack but right now there is no confirmation all of these are a report so downtown most thursday evening before a city's very crowded there were many people here at the time when the fir is gonna show its were heard and later many of them sure they motions and feelings on social media and many of them disc. dr the 1st 2nd was as a moment of confusion because p

the fireworks are being staged over red square and the kremlin.is of course celebrating the new decade over several time zones with the east of the country already into 2020. president putin is making his new year's address around now too — an address which will mark exactly 20 years since he came to power in russia. he will call on the rusisan nation to show unity and rally behind his efforts, leading the country. let's keep an eye and watch as people get ready for the celebrations that are taking place. we have been watching over the past hour from we have been watching over the past hourfrom dubai we have been watching over the past hour from dubai into we have been watching over the past hourfrom dubai into moscow we have been watching over the past hour from dubai into moscow as we make our way around the world. as we move make our way around the world. as we m ove over make our way around the world. as we move over from moscow, just gone to minutes passed midnight an estimable in turkey. the first firework display that is with the mayor of i

i don't think he could go to red square now -- >> no.s your impression of him in those early years his general sort of personality and how he carried himself? >> very laid-back. for a photojournalist was an amazing subject in that in the presence of my camera, my presence taking pictures did not bother him in the least. i mean, i use what i call small footprint, i'm not using a loud motor drive and i'm trying to be quiet how i went about my business. but he was very unusual in just the presence of my camera not affecting him one way or the other. >> do you think that was something about the kind of person he was? >> yeah, i think so. >> how so? >> i think it being brought up in hawaii. you know, people in hawaii are -- you know, he was born in hawaii. i don't know if you knew that. [ applause ] >> i forgot where we ended up on that whole thing, yeah. >> you know, he's a laid-back guy, still is. >> you then started -- you were photographing him for the trib and then you worked in the white house, second white house you worked in and you n

in his tomb and red square, london and red square, lennon lies alone. stalin had been removed.the russians will tell you, it is not personalities that count, but policy. now, in the streets of moscow, people seem to have their eyes fixed on more distant targets. on the heavens. on the way to the stars. but the way to the stars lies also through the brandenburg gate. in berlin, bricks, mortar, wire and every kind of fiendish contraption make up the wall of shame. today, because the east maintains the uneasy status quo, americans, british, and french must still patrol the wall they detest. just in case. other, -- on the other side, east german police work to make their defenses even more impregnable. defenses designed not to keep out, but to keep in. witness the memorials to those who have tried to pass and failed. on this side of the wall, children play against its stones. as they will play anywhere. when khrushchev was retired 20 years after the second world war, the young people of europe inherited a divided berlin, a divided germany. and no final postwar settlement of the eur

and, moscow welcomes the new year with fireworks over red square.

it's a building very much in central moscow it's within a stone's throw from the bolshoi theater red square. big shopping center rochelle this sort of packed with people very busy people leaving work to go home and go about their evening activities this happened at about 10 past 6 in the evening now security forces and police were very quick to respond that attacker was quickly reports say he was quickly shot but not before sadly he managed to kill at least 5 people we can't say exactly what their condition is we know that one f.s.b. officer was tragically killed another one was at a critical condition the other 3 people we don't have any information from the health ministry as of yet we know they've been taken to local hospitals we know he was carrying an automatic assault rifle which for moscow for a city you which as we've discussed earlier has suffered its fair share of terrorist attacks of bombings that set for is quite a rare sight and seeing these streets deserted of after this certainly is. it is quite surreal we can speculate of course all we want at this stage given the target of

in moscow they have had to quietly lay artificial snow around red square and other landmarks because winter in russia since about the 18805. winter in russia since about the 1880s. they have not had snow at all and people were failing to get worried, the authorities were worried, the authorities were worried what it might mean for the moscow citizens. we will see the effects in moscow in about a couple of hours. about ten o'clock this evening. we will have all the fireworks and bbc news. let's go back to look at the north korea and japan approaches. a contrast. near neighbours was not that friendly relations. japan is nervous where north korea may fire a missile onto its territory. the floor show for north korea and we have singers from the army singing in unison with a spectacular display behind. i love the snowman in affairs. —— a fez. everybody is waving like sex. i don't know if we get to see kim jong—un. the new king. —— waving light sticks. a new day has begun in the southern hemisphere. a new decade has begun. there has been rather more sombre start to the new yearfor rather m

it's a building very much in central moscow it's within a stone's throw from the bolshoi theater red square in the big shopping center at rush hour this would have been packed with people very busy people leaving work to go home and go about their evening activities that's happened about 10 past 6 in the evening now security forces and police are very quick to respond. quickly reports say he was quickly shot but not before sadly he managed to kill and injure at least 5 people we can't say exactly what their condition is we know that one f.s.b. officer was tragically killed another one was in a critical condition the other 3 people we don't have any information from the health ministry as of yet we know they've been taken to local hospitals we know he was carrying an automatic assault rifle which for moscow for a city you which as we've discussed earlier has suffered its fair share of terrorist attacks of bombings that set for is quite a rare sight and seeing these streets are deserted of after this certainly is is quite surreal that certainly wasn't the case that posix in the evening we do

taken place are right in the heart of the city of course not 10 minutes away from the kremlin from red square and whatnot what more can you toss that's definite at this point well there's more news coming in about casualty figures 3 according to eyewitnesses media accounts one traffic police officer was killed at the scene he unfortunately was targeted by this automatic gunfire come to his injuries at the scene in terms of casualties again we are saying there are 3 casualties that is probably accurate but what we do know what we don't know rather at this stage is whether those casualties are any further security personnel or if there is one attacker or of all 3 attackers were killed at the scene we just don't know right now i think was adding to the confusion is somewhat witness accounts say these perpetrators or perpetrator would dressed in security personnel uniforms now things might have got confusing in the run up in the panic as people fled the scene so we can't really take them at face value what we can confirm and this is official from the f.s.b. is that situation is no longer an activ

where the headquarters is just 1015 minutes walk from the bolshoi theater just a bit more from red square from the shopping center is a thursday night 6 37 pm very much evening rush hour people leaving their offices to head home and go out their evening business so you can imagine the panic but the place where this shooting began our crews in correspondence at the scene managed to get some eyewitness accounts of what happened when the gunfire began and this is what one witness saw in those opening minutes. 6 pm i was leaving a story bridge and then those sounds began at 1st people thought it was a firework but the road police who always stand there started shouting not to stand and watch but to wonder why the understood the situation immediately they were not 12 or 3 shots there were lots of them so many that i can't even count. and say this was a big day at the very beginning anyway because is the time when president putin makes his will address to the media so all eyes are on him in central moscow anyway then the things are taken quite the doctor indeed you're all eyes on central moscow
