More details are emerging about the mosque attack in egypt on friday, which killed more than 300 worshippers the worst the country has suffered in recent memory. Officials believe up to 30 gunmen were involved. As our middle east correspondent 0rla guerin reports, local people are asking what more needs to be done in the fight against extremists in sinai. Needs to be done in the fight this needs to be done in the fight report contains some distressing this report contains some distressing images. Trying to bring comfort after an attack that has horrified egypt and caused shock around the world. Among the survivors, the imam. He was leading the prayers when terror came to the mosque. As soon as people heard firing they started to run, he says. Some climbed onto the pulpit. They were piled on top of each other. The attackers were shooting at anyone breathing. My friends lost theirfamilies, their at anyone breathing. My friends lost their families, their cousins and brothers, some lost their sons. This sinai journalist is from bir al abed, where the attack took place. He says it is a turning point for local tribes, who have resolved to hunt the militants themselves. The tribe members yesterday, almost 400 people were at the meeting. They decided to carry arms. In a propaganda video, the main suspects, the Egyptian Branch of is, which has found Fertile Ground among the desert sand and neglect in sinai. Now it has money, resources, weapons and recruits. Sadly and tragically, the Egyptian Government has basically used only military means against the isis branch in north sinai. You need to dislodge isis from the social and political grievances that exist in sinai. Experts say the Egyptian Army has been relying only on military might to try to defeat is in sinai. Now, more than ever, it needs a new battle plan. Owners of drones will have to register and take Safety Awareness tests as part of proposed new legislation. Police will also be given new powers to crack down on criminal use of the devices. But asjoe lynham reports the government is also keen to develop the technology. They could be one of the most coveted presents this christmas. Prices have come down and you can do a lot more with them. This potential customer says he would use one for Aerial Surveys and research. But he knows there needs to be more controls. Its all for safety, isnt it . We dont want drones crashing into planes and things like that. Safety concerns surrounding drones were highlighted in july, when Gatwick Airport had to close when a drone was flown under a plane about to land. There have been near misses at leeds bradford, cork and manchester airports since 2015. And to prevent drones getting too close, the proposed drone bill could mean that owners of drones weighing more than 250 grams will need to register and do a test. They will be banned from flying near airports, or higher than 120 metres or 400 feet. And police will get new powers to seize unmanned aerial vehicles. But drones have a growing list of useful applications. This prototype can fly into water and propel itself back out. These drones can be used on oil rigs to fix cables in treacherous conditions. And they are the types of uses that the aviation minister wants to encourage. Weve looked at the drones today which can help in the construction industry, in the mining industry, an offshore oil rigs. And whats really exciting is that they can do the jobs that actually put people at risk, so hopefully it will help with safety as well. With the rising popularity of drones comes the issue of potential misuse by the public. This legislation could mean that new users wont be able to simply take it out of the box and start flying it straightaway. Joe lynam, bbc news.

Fire crews were called to the Mountain Rescue Team is due at 830 last night to tackle the blaze inside the building. It is not clear how the fire started by the teams incident control vehicle wasnt really destroyed. This was our area of controlling incidents. That has gone. The winners blown and popped. It really has been destroyed. Windows. Devastating is the word. We spent a lot of time in the heart, raising the funds to purchase the vehicle and keep it on the road. To see this now is a sad sight. Bouts regular viewers are familiar with the central beacon Mountain Rescue Team. They feature any station identical screened between programmes. Volunteers fear a fire could have cost up to £500,000 worth of damage and will impact on safety. We and our non operational in terms of responding to mountain rescue incidents for the fanciable future. Given the time of year and the weather and the dark nights, we are ready into our record breaking year for incidents. 130 this year. We have got christmas coming up, and the Winter Weather in front of us. It is going to impact severely unhappy operate over the next few months. Insurers claim being assessed and the vehicles off the road, the volunteer rescuers say they now have to respond to emergencies in their own cars. Lets get more on one of our main stories. Police could be given the power to crack down on illegal use of drones. Owners of devices over a certain size will also have to register with the authorities and sit Safety Awareness tests. The measures are included in the draft drone bill to be published next spring. Lets speak now to ian leslie, a commercial drone pilot and director of a Civil Aviation authority regulated commercial drone company, high level photography. It is good to have you with us. Good to hear about your perspective. I wa nt to to hear about your perspective. I want to ask you about your own experience of a near miss, not as a going operator but has a pilot. Had a licence for 25 years and five yea rs a licence for 25 years and five years ago i was flying from gatwick to my home base, just in surrey. 100 feet below me i did see a drone and it flies past frequently. That was five years ago before the proliferation of drones happened. It was a close call. Itjust brought the reality of what can happen home. How great is the rest from drones to commercial aircraft . There is a risk, absolutely. If anything does hit, there will be some significant damage and potentially catastrophic. The proliferation of them is certainly a bit. Unventilated use, professional operators know what they are doing. We communicate with local air Traffic Control, police, we are operating today in hampstead, and which indicated with the police, we did not need to let air traffic know that it was no particular issue is nearby. But we have operated close to london city airport, heathrow, and in our own local airports. We do a lot of our testing and are communicating with the Traffic Controllers. Given the operators like you, professionals, are well aware of the dangers and risk, is there a danger that this legislation is just going to be a sign of the government doing something but wont make a difference to the people you recall. And those who are using drones for criminal purposes . The speed limit is 75. That gets broken every day. The regulation, Everybody Knows the speed limit, everybody who drives knows it. There are people who drive that do not have a driving licence, they might not know the speed limit. The regulation and the publication of the awareness. I think it is important. You can go down to costco, whatever shop and buy one. They get out and go flying. With impunity. That is where the biggest risk is. Rose we are hearing one of our guests earlier said he shops are being flooded with big imports in the run up to christmas. It is one of the gifts that people are keen to get for fun and pleasure. What practical difference can legislation make when you have got all of this commercial activity, some of it from abroad, stuff being brought in, even some of the technical restrictions that we are talking about, geo fencing, talk of that being broken by an app. Everything can be hacked, your iphone can be hacked, everything. But everybody goes to knows extremes. You will never stop the determined person. Ithink extremes. You will never stop the determined person. I think that is just a fact of life. Someone who buys it from the shop and their garden happens me underneath a flight garden happens me underneath a flight path, and theyjust decide to fly it up, that is where the geo fencing will come in and kick in. It was prevented from going. You got a level of regulation and my understanding is that it is less than 250 grams, you will not need the rest of it. Anything over will need to be registered. You will need to ta ke need to be registered. You will need to take an awareness course. That is about making sure you understand when you take your drone off, you know where it is, you know what else is around you. There are many that will tell you exactly that you are ina will tell you exactly that you are in a control zone. People will not use them because theres no need for them. The is a requirement. That is them. The is a requirement. That is the regulation billy dardis need to comment. To stop this. That is a good reason for regulating, but another development we are hearing about is the idea any not too distant future of hiding large drones from air Traffic Control systems. Perhaps i am not aware of that, you are talking about stealth drones may be, but to be fair i do not think many of the smaller drones can be seen by a traffic. In the eu consultation document, they talk about some form of identification lighted transponder. It is mass is big enough or it has an elegant mixing ajar, that is stuff that needs to be developed would be useful. As a pilot, i can have something in say there is another aircraft near, traffic Collision Avoidance system, thatll tell you there is something nearby. That is not mandatory. Commercial operators have it, they get instructions on what to do. It looks like it is quite a Carbon Trading area the government will have to regulate. We look forward to see the details in the spring. We may trust you again then. Talk to you again. Thank you for talking to us. In 39 year old man has been charged with aggravated burglary and the attentive murder of a dd veteran. This 96 year old was seriously injured in an attack in his home on taunton in somerset.

England are on the verge of losing the first ashes test after that earlier dominated the fourth day in brisbane. England started the day in brisbane. England started the day with a slender lead and eight wickets in hand, but may build out forjust 195. Wickets in hand, but may build out forjust195. Joe wickets in hand, but may build out for just 195. Joe root wickets in hand, but may build out forjust195. Joe root was the captain, and julia parred target was 170. At the close of play, the hosts we re 170. At the close of play, the hosts were 114, no wickets. 56 runs they need tomorrow to secure a convincing victory. Off the field, the ecb says it has broken the wicketkeeperjonny ba i rstow it has broken the wicketkeeperJonny Bairstow following reports he head butted the australian batsmen Cameron Bancroft during a night out in perth and beginning of the tour. Back on the field, where it is all going wrong for england . Andrew miller is here. It is good to speak to you. You will know a lot about the stats. I was looking back at some of the copy, and to be fair to england they do not have a great record in first ashes test when they play down under. What had been wrong with the performance this time . As you say, their performances traditionally are shocking, so in mitigation not a lot. It was actually i witnessed a lot of slaughters at the abattoir. As it is known. This is probably going to be another of those. In terms of the final result. It would have fought as hard as i have seen them fighting as hard as i have seen them fighting a first test. It has come down to the people. England have lacked the pace of mitchell stark that they have been able to bring to the game. A slightly slow wicket they have, england have some success with the new ball, stuart broad for example, to be fastest bowlers. They are technicians, not express bowlers. I feel you managed to see them off, indolents back up has not been good enough. It is being the bowling. England have fought very hard and i have been impressed in some ways, but they are doing to get another black mark at the abattoir. M but they are doing to get another black mark at the abattoir. If it goes as predicted, and it is a bad start to the tour, they have got out of the group. They may think more about how they are playing. What sort of thing you think they are going to need be focusing on . Finding a fast bowler, they have got the lies squad out there, they are shadowing the main squad, and mark wood, one of england might fastest bowlers, injury prone, is playing tomorrow against queensland. If he comes through that, ever not be surprised to see him shoehorned straight into the starting line up. They need someone who is quick and can be hostile. It can be flat wickets with the new kookaburra ball gets old. How is joe root doing . When it comes to converting 50s into a hundred, he was showing up a little bit by steve smith. Smith produced a magnificent 100. He made 51, he is now mentally and certainly tactically i thought he was brilliant. He will you tried every trick in a book in the field to keep and lead in command. Theyjust lack that little bit of incisiveness to really break open innings that then you bowler gave him a chance in. That you so much for sharing your insight. Good to speak to. Speakto speak to you. The head of armed groups and his deputy had been suspended by Police Scotland under allegations of gross misconduct. Assista nt allegations of gross misconduct.
