VAUSE: A Jewish community in Germany has been left grieving after two people were shot dead on Yom Kippur, the holiest day on the Jewish calendar. A 27-year-old man is now in custody. Police say he tried to storm a synagogue in the eastern city of Halle. But when he could not enter the building, he shot and killed a woman outside then drove to a nearby shop, and there, he killed a man. Chancellor Angela Merkel attended a vigil at a synagogue in Berlin after the attack, and she says Germany must do more to protect the Jewish people.</s>ANGELA MERKEL, CHANCELLOR OF GERMANY (through translator): Unfortunately, today on your holy day, we witnessed something horrible. Two people lost their lives. There was an attack on Jews and Jews in Germany. My goal and that of the politicians is to do everything possible to ensure that you can live in safety. And this day shows us that this is not enough, that we must do even more.</s>VAUSE: The attack was live streamed via camera on the gunman's helmet. In the 35-minute video, he's heard claiming the Holocaust never happened, and the Jews are the cause of most of the world's problems.</s>MICHEL BARNIER, BREXIT NEGOTIATOR, EUROPEAN UNION (through translator): To put things simply and frankly with objectiveness, at the time I'm speaking, we are not in a position to be able to find an agreement with Britain.</s>VAUSE: Boris Johnson will meet with his Irish counterpart on Thursday.
