they are suspected to have transported the paris attackers to paris in the 48 hours before the attack. mohamed abrini then disappears and he's been one of the most wanted men in europe since. very much somebody working as part of this terror cell that carried out the attacks in paris. same cell carried out the attacks in brussels. >> that's where i want to bring in nic robertson. you heard paul cruickshank talking about how europe son red alert for this man. how much wisdom is there that mohamed abrini may have an integral role in what happened in brussels? >> the fact that it is part of the same cell, the fact he knew salah abdeslam and the fact they were on the loose between the paris and brussels attacks speaks to that possibility. have they tried to avoid each other because they knew they were searched for? had they both slipped in or were hiding in the same place with the same network, almost yards from their childhood. they have been friends since childhood. they trusted each a other. there's every potential that he was. what if it is mohamed abrini, we don't know at this time.

>> oh, yeah. >> we met paris on his 18th birthday. he had just transferred from the jail's juvenile detention center to the adult facility. and though it seemed he had little to celebrate, paris decided to make a birthday cake. >> it's going to be called layer cake. >> do you know about his baking skills? >> yeah. >> he only had the ingredients that one can get in commissary, and it's this potpourri of cakes, fudge, candies, the whole thing. >> see, i ain't never seen no cake this tall. it's a monster cake. >> how did you come up with the idea to do this, paris? >> being incarcerated. you learn a lot of new things when you're around different people. >> i filmed so many of these shows and usually they just take their ingredients, they throw it together, they mix it around, put in some spices, put in some different candies or whatever, and it's done. but in this case, he was so methodical about each item and how it lined up on the cake. and 45 minutes, an hour had elapsed and he was still adding ingredients precisely. >> you know you'v

on the right, tito days before paris, mohammed a brainy a petrol station heading to paris. he was the driver delivering this car, used by the paris attackers. he has been hunted ever since. prosecutors now say he is also linked to the brussels attacks and safehouses used by the brussels bomb makers. >> fingerprints and dna were retrieved not only in the , but also in the vehicle that was used in the paris attacks. >> prosecutors are trying to filmed at this is he, brussels airport. seconds later, the men to his left, suicide bombers, blew themselves up. the so-called man in the hat .led from the airport police have been trying to identify him ever since. exactly three weeks ago, belgian police made this arrest, europe's most wanted men. police now have their prime suspects both in custody. >> the two last important people involved in the attack in paris and brussels. that means most of the people involved in the attack are dead or under arrest. arrest, whatlatest is also now clear is that the attacks on brussels and paris were the work of one extended terror cell. lauea: fo

attacks, two days before the paris attacks, drove from brussels paris, picked up on cctv camera at a gas station. his route is believed to have a role in helping to plan the paris attacks, as well and also a had a role in the brussels attacks, as well. the nature we don't know. for the authorities, wolf, this is absolutely huge. they have got salah abdeslam, one of the plotters and planners behind these attacks, in custody. they have a second person now. this gives a huge advantage to figure out if one of them is lying to them. they can cross reference information here. a big win for belgian authorities today. wolf? >> isn't salah abdeslam cooperating with authorities? he was supposedly being extradited from belgium in to france. salah abdeslam, what do we know about his level of cooperation? >> the picture is not clear. what we know is the first day after he was arrested his lawyer said he was cooperating with belgian authorities. he was going to fight extradition to france. shortly after the attacks in brussels he changed his tune. he got a different lawyer and his lawyer said he w

there's plenty of room in paris. well, the chinese version of paris. they've also got a venice and a london. so why are they ghost towns? abc's bob woodruff on a bizarre odyssey. i struggle with bipolar depression, and it's hard. i miss out on life's little moments. so i talked to my doctor and he prescribed latuda. there are many forms of depression. latuda is fda approved to treat bipolar depression, which is different from other types of depression. for many people struggling with bipolar depression. latuda is not for everyone. call your doctor about unusual mood changes, behaviors, or suicidal thoughts. antidepressants can increase these in children, teens, and young adults. elderly dementia patients on latuda have an increased risk of death or stroke. call your doctor about fever, stiff muscles and confusion, as these may be signs of a life-threatening reaction, or if you have uncontrollable muscle movements, as these may be permanent. high blood sugar has been seen with latuda and medicines like it, and in extreme cases can lead to coma or death.

before the attacks in paris. two days in a car that was believed to be used in attacks in. is he connected to one or both? >> it's the same cell that carried out both attacks. this is the same group of men who were all working together, all based in and around brussels in the weeks before the paris attacks. the remaining part of the cell a few months later then carried out the brussels attacks. and that, remember, was just a few days after salah abdeslam and another co-conspirator were brought into custody. there's optimism because they have more dangerous men in custody, they think. but also concern because there may be other people at large who fear the dragnet is coming closer to them. we saw what happened when salah abdeslam was arrested. that's a concern of authorities. >> let's add to the conversation. let's add jim sciutto. what are you picking up from your sources? what are you hearing from the u.s., the significance? this seems very significant. something belgium as wanted and needed was to pick up more

we know he made several runs back anding for between brussels and paris. again, he wasn't one of the attackers in paris but was a significant logistics man weapon know he had close contacts with abdel abbaud. the master mind of the paris attacks, on the most wanted list in europe. he trained with isis in 2014, 2015, he smuggled his way in win refugees, the refugee flow coming back into europe from syria. it he was a desperate man, a most suspected terrorist, and he is caught, and that is a significant find. whether he has a role in the brussels attacks, frankly, we don't know. but i have to believe he did. in the advance release that the belgian authorities put out they suggested they were connected with the brussels attack. we don't know anything about the second suspect arrested but it was believed he had a role. >> thank you very much. we apologize to our viewers. a little buzz in the audio. appearses belgian authorities have their so-called man in the hat who is believed to be principally responsible or a large participant in both the paris and the bru

so close after the paris and brussels attacks. with new information coming out of belgium that some of the planners may have been doing - extensive surveillance on a nuclear scientist. some may have had plans to attack a nuclear facility. it is interesting to hear the white house somewhat downplay the risk. they said in a country like belgium, security is extremely tight around nuclear facilities. they say it reinforces the fact they believe isis would like to get its hands on nuclear material. some experts say they see the broader threat, not being highly enriched uranium, that's used to make nuclear bombs held by two dozen countries. that's been reduced significantly over the last decade. security is also much tighter than it was. they see the real threat as being this lower grade radiological material, kinds used in hospitals and held by academic institutions. that is held in more than 30 countries and sites around the world. some have terrible security. they see that as the likely way that isis could get its hands on some mate

melissa: sulla of the first time back inlah abdeslam is paris. he was handed over by belgian authorities just after 9:00 a.m. this morning. he spent four months on the run before being captured in march in a brussels -- in brussels, where he faced several weeks of the march 22fter attacks come in which he is also believed to have played a key part. here's a look back at the man four -- for the last for the less 5.5 months, france's most wanted. >> back to the scene of the crime, salah abdeslam arrived back in paris. when it five months after the attacks in paris that killed more than 130 people and injured hundreds more, salah abdeslam was extradited from belgium, where he had been indicted on march 18. since then, he has been behind by belgianioned prosecutors, and has admitted to playing an organizational role in the terror attacks of november 13. authorities believe two days before the attacks, he checked into this hotel on the outskirts the car before renting in which he is thought to have to thebombers destination where they detonated their

it is earth day, the paris climate agreement that will be signed at the u.n. today, the sixth anniversary of the bp oil spill. most important thing for the sixth anniversary of the oil spill is at this point, government, industry, the public have learned the lessons of this disaster. and for, those first two categories, government and industry, are not implementing any of those lessons. president obama is expanding offshore oil drilling dramatically in the gulf of mexico, proposal to expand it in the arctic, continuing production in california and the pacific, and hoping to continue to expand drilling in the gulf of mexico as well. and that is in face of the interior department trying to put in place new regulations to make offshore drilling safer, including 500 pages worth of new regulations released just last week. but every expert i have spoken to including the u.s. chemical safety board has set his regulations just do not go far enough in the lessons have not been implemented. the likelihood of another macondo-like blowout is still very, very real. the goo

remember he is the paris attacker. he is the arrested paris attack suspect that was found in brussels just a couple weeks ago. he too, guess what? smuggled himself in with the refugee flow coming from syria after training with isis in syria, through turkey, through greece and then into paris and brussels. we don't know what kind of a role he had in the paris attacks. we don't know what kind of a role he had in the brussels attacks. they're guessing is from what the advance word from the belgian authorities that he did have a role in this terror. we certainly know he had contacts with a lot of bad guys. to sum up we'll know more information tomorrow. authorities said they would have more details tomorrow. there is buzz of activity around these arrests today. i think they felt they had to come out with something. it's a significant arrest. perhaps one victory for the belgian authorities that would have been under a lot of heat because a lot of people have been saying they're not doing a good job tamping down terrorism gr

paris police confirm a key arrest of this man. mohammed abrini. new reports believe that he is the man in the hat seen with the two bombers in the brussels airport. bob is with us on the anti- terrorism task force. bob, this is a huge get for the paris police and those in belgian. what do you know about how they picked him up and you know, what would have led to the arrest? >> right, jon. it is it a combination. abdeslam is cooperating with the brussels police and paris police since his arrest. as they looked in the neighborhood and used search warrants and debriefing informants, they ran across mohammed today. upon his arrest he was identified as the suspect in the white coat in the brussels airport bombing. it is a huge arrest for brussels and paris and intelligence community. there were other arrests made today. and they are going to be searching through the hard are drives and electronics and phones. and this blows both cases wide open. >> he had not been publicly identified as being associated with the brussels attacks until today. and then h

specifically the financial district in paris. that according tour affiliate bfma source close to the investigation says they also wanted to strike a catholic association in paris but they were spooked, officials say by the probes and shifted to brussels. one of the men rounded up officials say has exon fess -- confessed to being the wearing the hat. he's now space facing several terror charges. cnn international correspondent frederick pleitgen is in brussels, this coming as result of the situation after the raids correct. >> reporter: investigators are saying there are various sources. second high profile man also arrested on friday krayem also played a role in the bombings as well. officials say there are several sources they are taking this information from. one of the things we have to keep in mind that right before the brussels attacks happened. another high value target was arrested and salah abdeslam and there were people who believe that could have been an accelerate for the brussels attacks. a laptop was found from one o

abdelslam was going to be extradited to paris, and authorities in paris will be keen to questioning mohammed abrini. so hopefully we'll get more of that, that it will be much swifter than that. >> what strikes me is that these suspects, all arrested--i think they were all arrested in the. >> that's a very good point. and actually it means that they feel safe and protected in a way. they all have fake passports. they could have gone to germany, austria, syria, so it means that there is a network to protect them. and as we've seen abdel slam was four months in belgium, and nobody gave him away. >> there are so many different police officers operating, has that been difficult, in your opinion. >> the problem with the synchronizety between the police, yes, you cannot have a city the size of brussels which is a fragment of-done to have different departments speaking different languages and not talking with each other. that's incredibly stupid to have this much of a problem when we know how difficult it is to speak from one deputy departme --from one department to another. this needs to be tackled

the prestigious shopping district in paris. instead, they leftheir apartment in brussels, and in less than an hour bombed the city's airport. this new video shows police raiding the apartment by which time 32 peoplwere dead. in this apartment police find 30 pounds of the explosive tatp. and around 50 gallons of explosive material. but the gan four times that amount in the bombs they built here. so where did it all come from? and who supplied it? those questions have never been answered. and mohammed abrini's ambitions went beyond a second attack on paris. security sources tell nbc news he traveled to birmingham, england last year where photos of a soccer stadium were found on his phone. prosecutors say abrini has confessed to being the man in the hat who helped deliver the airport bombs and fled. it's not clear if he's still talking. and the policebl searching for suspects, can't be sure there aren't more killers on the loose, with mortar get e targets in mind. >>> here at home, senator schumer talked terrorism. he wants to off

salam abdeslam will soon be sent for trial in paris. now his accomplice, abrini, joins him behind bars. and investigators say one other man arrested today, osama k, bought the bags used in the airport bombings and may have been with the suicide bomber at the metro, so they believe they caught two men at the very heart of the terror here. lester? >> bill neely in europe, thank you. >>> now to tempers flaring and strategies shifting tonight on the campaign trail here at home as pressure builds on and bernie sanders to win new york, and on republican side donald trump is making moves hoping to avoid a contested convention as ted cruz proves a powerful force in the race for delegates. a lot to cover. we have it starting with nbc's andrea mitchell in washington. andrea, very busy friday here. >> indeed it was. good evening, lester. bernie sanders tonight telling a brooklyn crowd if they win in new york, they could even win the nomination, making it clear just how critical this new york showdown is for both sides. hillary clinton not letting
