The crisis over catalonia continues. The crisis over catalonia continues. The Spanish Government has stripped the authorities of their powers and taken charge of the government. The crackdown began after the region declared independence on friday. The deputy Prime Minister says she has taken overfrom deputy Prime Minister says she has ta ken over from the deputy Prime Minister says she has taken over from the former catalan president , puigdemont who was sacked on friday. The Central Government says new elections will be held on december and mr puigdemont will be able to take part. In a speech earlier, the separatist leader calls for direct democratic opposition. This is the first full day of direct rule from madrid. And no ones yet sure quite what to make of it. Catalan organisations have told people here to carry on as normal. Local Catalan Police officers still guard this, the catalan political headquarters. And separatist leaders, who have technically been sacked by madrid, are now trying to work out their next move. Carles puigdemont, the catalan leader, featured on todays front pages, refuses to accept that he has been fired. Translation we do not deviate. We continue persevering in the only way that can make us winners. Without violence, without insults, in an inclusive way, respecting people, symbols and opinions. Many here are worried about what may come next. Antonio and pilar, here queueing up for lottery tickets, just want a fresh start. Elections, elections, elections, he tells me. And over in madrid, demonstrators have come out to support the imposition of direct rule in the catalan region. You why do they want to break up spain . There is no sense. It is a problem that is not only affecting catalonia. It is affecting the whole of spain. It is affecting the whole of europe. And we cannot just stay and see what happens, we have to act. Viva espa na tonight, catalans may wonder who exactly is running their lives. They are ruled directly by madrid, but their own deposed leader continues to try to govern, leaving people here in a strange half world. James reynolds, bbc news, barcelona. Lets go to somalia where two powerful explosions have killed at least 14 people in the capital. Car bomb packed with explosives blew up car bomb packed with explosives blew up close to a hotel in the second bomb exploded nearby. The Islamist Group al shabaab says it is responsible. Ministers were gathering in the hotel ahead of the security meeting. Our correspondent is in kenya and asking who the target the attacks were. Alshabaab says they carried out this attack to target government and intelligence officials who were in the hotel. That a hotel is known to be a place that attract a lot of high profile officials, high profile government officials. Al sha baab officials, high profile government officials. Al shabaab is targeted similar venues where personnel like this frequent. The group has been quick to release this statement and it is not. It is very much in line with what they do, these kind of truck bombings and car bombings and then storming a building using gunman. This comes just two weeks after rate this comes just two weeks after rate this comes just two weeks after a devastating attack that killed so many people. Can the country cope with this sort of islamist terrorism 7 country cope with this sort of islamist terrorism . It is difficult for somalia at this time considering the history it has had instability and warand now the history it has had instability and war and now this constant attack, not just in and war and now this constant attack, notjust in mogadishu but in other parts of the country. Somalia has recently had pledges of support from around the world from neighbours, uganda and several other countries including the us, which is also stepping up its Counterterrorism Operations in africa. Theories that and the need for it. Also, i think, africa. Theories that and the need for it. Also, ithink, the africa. Theories that and the need for it. Also, i think, the problem goes much deeper. It is not merely a military offensive needed against al shabaab but military offensive needed against al sha baab but the military offensive needed against al shabaab but the sense that they also need to tackle some of the local problems to do with rivalries between the different level of government as well as different pla nts government as well as different plants in the system of somalia. In neighbouring kenya, verging on the disputed election remains on hold with the poll suspended in several areas because of clashes between rival groups. The Opposition Leader refused to run in the contest against the sitting president. Attem pts against the sitting president. Atte m pts a re against the sitting president. Attempts are being made on the ground to defence tensions. We joined a peace convoy led by two local governors touring villages. If this country is to end its political crisis, this convoy might be an inspiration. Two leaders, from different tribes and with different politics, but one message. Governor paul kiprono is a kalenjin and supported the elections. It was important we came here today with a message of peace, he says. The governor of kisumu, anyang nyongo, is a luo and an Opposition Leader. From today, there will be no more roadblocks, he promised. This is a significant event. Because so often in the past, powerful men have used ethnic rivalry to their political advantage. This is quite the opposite. The two governors are going into their respective communities together, to preach a message of tolerance. These kalenjin farmers say their luo neighbours stopped the election taking place here. They refused our people to vote. They wouldnt allow you to vote . Yeah, and our people dont like it. We drove past the barricades set up to prevent voting. These sugar cane fields. Just a few minutes from the land occupied by one group, to the land of another. These are luo. But its a great deal more complex here than tribal enmity. Poverty, deepened by corruption and misrule, has inflamed local divisions. The young men said they had armed in self defence. They claimed they had been attacked and had cattle stolen a few hours earlier. There were moments of tension, some shouted at the visiting kalenjin governor. In the morning, when we took our people to work out there, they started beating them and chasing them away. What is the solution . The solution is, its good that the governors have come. We need those people to bring back our cattle, fast. So we can sit down and find a solution. The Peace Initiative follows election violence that took the life of this mans son george. The 19 year old was shot by police during demonstrations before polling in nearby kisumu. Translation i feel pain. Ifeel pain because my baby was not sick. He died from a bullet. Ifeel much pain. It is the human toll that makes todays peace move something far greater than the politics of gesture. We have de escalated a tension that was there by almost 100 . This is the way forward for kenya. This is the way forward for africa. The bigger crisis remains unresolved. But across the west, it felt calmer tonight. Fergal keane, bbc news, kisumu. Lets get some other news for you this an hour.

The grooms family, unlike many others who fled during the fighting, has been able to return to their neighbour would and celebrate. Translation this is the first time we have gotten together like this. Women used to have to stay here and mendes, there was no mixing. Now that they are gone we can mix and we no longer have to wear covering. Female guests, forced under jihadist have to wear covering. Female guests, forced underjihadist rule to wear all enveloping black now enjoy a patterned robes and bright red lipstick. For now, raqqa is close to uninhabitable with many buildings destroyed and large parts of the city of limits for fear of unexploded ordnance. Hundreds of civilians would killed in the fighting and many residents are still searching for missing family members. But for the wedding guests, the celebration is a glimmer of hope for the future.

I have. I asked different sides of the debate. I have. Iasked if different sides of the debate. I have. I asked if they would support direct rule from spain or its resistance. We ask our politicians to engage the process, and now it is time for us to support them and support the birth of our new republic. How will you be doing that . It is to demonstrate specifically and not to allow the Central Government to apply this 155 regulation that would see them sees the government and institutions.

All the calls and claims made by the regional minister were actually fake. Companies are moving out. We will suffer economically in an independent situation. Ernest, javier was talking about the economics. I understand you have a business. What will you be doing . I understand you will be taking strike action, but would you open your business to employees that have the different opinion . Yes, obviously. The right for a strike is a right, not an obligation. I would like to make a comment on companies leaving. That is a partial vision and, in fa ct, that is a partial vision and, in fact, there are few companies that are moving, only on the social side, which is not moving economic activity. That has even been companies that have said the king of spain asked them to leave. So we are living in an economic sabotage. And these things that javier said, they are not true.

The Pakistani Cricket Team are preparing to host sri lanka on sunday. It is the first sizes are attacked by militants nine years ago. A people were killed when gunmen opened fire on the jamaican tea m gunmen opened fire on the Jamaican Team bus. But now, many see the return of the Sri Lankan Team is the return of the Sri Lankan Team is the return of the Sri Lankan Team is the return of International Cricket to the country. Opened fire on the Sri Lankan Team. This empty plot of land is host to three simultaneous games of cricket. But the most that iran is talking about will take place a few kilometres away when pakistan take a sri lanka. Translation im happy the Sri Lankan Team is coming here. A long time, there has been no cricket in pakistan. That has been really damaging for lump to make young players. Translation . We will be supporting both teams. Really damaging for young players. Who ever wins, it is a victory for cricket. This is what happened last time the sri lankan tea m happened last time the Sri Lankan Team came to lahore. Eight people we re team came to lahore. Eight people were killed, and a number of players injured. Following the attack, pakistan have held their home games in the united arab emirates. Given the top domestic cricket championship is played there. All at a huge cost to the cricket board. Playing our home series away from home grounds in foreign lands, like goodbye, means expenses are literally 100 increase. Like dubai. Money is kept internally if we can play at home. All of the Industries Associated have suffered. At the gaddafi stadium, they are preparing for sundays mash. Match. A world 11 team visited. Cricket will not be back to normal until everyone feels comfortable visiting. If we have regular bilateral series, then you can honestly say that cricket has come back.

On saturday, we had some interesting cloud formations helped by some gusty westerly winds, which brought temperatures of 17 degrees in aberdeen. So relatively mild. But that is changing because oui mild. But that is changing because ourair is starting mild. But that is changing because our air is starting to come from the arctic. Much colder northerly winds especially to the north east of the uk. There will be much more sunshine and a brighter day on sunday, but for many of us, you will notice that it is colder. The colder air coming in behind this weak weather front is more a band of power. A little rain oi more a band of power. A little rain or drizzle on it as well. Gusty winds with that. That is keeping temperatures up across southern part of england and wales. But in the clear skies, sunday would will be much colder. There will be more sunshine around on sunday. We will see that cloud in the south and south west. It eventually clears away from devon and cornwall. Good spells of sunshine throughout the day. Some showers down those north sea coasts where the wind will be strongest. Here it will feel particularly cold. A drop in temperature for the likes of newcastle in aberdeen. But the south and west, it would be a sweetie. 40 degrees will be much more pleasant. However, we will find this area of High Pressure building in across the uk overnight. So it will push away any remaining strong winds and we will have clear skies and a cold night. Temperatures probably in rural areas close to orjust below freezing. Not much frost at all so far, but it will start pretty chilly monday, on at least on grass. It wont warm up much of the day. It may turn milder through the week, because the westerly winds will return, many more cloud. That means more rain, not much, mostly in the north west. Starting monday, bright, sunny but cold. It will total hazy and more cloud will come in from the north west, where we could see a little rain in the north west scotla nd little rain in the north west scotland and northern ireland. Temperatures 9 12 degrees. Moving into tuesday, we so to get more influence from the Atlantic West to south westerly winds. That means more cloud around on tuesday. That means bits and pieces of rain, most across the northern half of the uk, temperatures returning to about 14, perhaps 15 degrees. On wednesday, we start to see those winds strengthening today. More rain coming in to scotland and northern ireland, but for most of england and wales, it should be dry and rather mild. This is bbc news.
