SOT in English in which Prince Charles condemns the attack and says he is appalled and shattered at the horrifying tragedy on Saturday and that we must show support, especially for the security forces, doctors and nurses who are so marvellous when these tragedies happen. Sympathising with relatives, he says he remembers the Enniskillen bombing and the murder of Lord Mountbatten. So I can feel for those who have to put up with the horrors when a relative is killed.

N. IRELAND: BRITAIN'S PRINCE CHARLES VISITS OMAGH (2)
English/Nat
The Republican dissident group calling itself the Real I-R-A says it planted the car bomb that killed 28 people and injured over 200 in Omagh on Saturday.
Britain's Prince Charles visited the Northern Ireland market town himself to see the destruction for himself and to reach out to some of those caught in the devastating blast.
The Prince toured the bomb site with Britain's minister for Northern Ireland, Mo Mowlam, and laid flowers at the growing tribute for the dead.
Earlier, he had spent the morning visiting the injured survivors who were convalescing at the Royal Air Force base at Aldergrove near Belfast.
Shortly after the first of many funerals for the 28 people murdered in Saturday's terrorist bombing, Prince Charles arrived in Omagh to see first hand the damage left in the wake of Saturday's deadly bombing.
The Prince of Wales, accompanied Northern Ireland Secretary Mo Mowlam, toured the site of the bombing that shocked the province last weekend and threw the peace process into question.
The Republican dissident group the so called Real I-R-A, a splinter group of the Provisional faction, have admitted to detonating the device on a busy market day.
The attack has renewed fears in the British-ruled province just four months after the historic peace agreement that now stands in peril.
Charles added a bouquet of flowers to the dozens already left at the site to remember the victims.
Earlier in the day, Charles visited the medical centre at R-A-F Aldergrove in Belfast where he paid tribute to the emergency services who dealt with the aftermath.
Over 100 victims injured in the blast remain in hospital, eight in critical condition.
In total, more than 220 people were injured - both Protestants and Catholics hurt by a 500-pound (200 kg) bomb that did not discriminate by religion.
The Prince said he came to Omagh to show support and sympathy for the victims and emergency services alike.
The atrocity brought back for him sad memories of the assassination of his great-uncle Lord Mountbatten, who was blown up by I-R-A terrorists in 1979.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
Q. Can we ask you for your thoughts on this visit and what happened?
Well obviously I'm as appalled and shattered as so many other people are in this country and elsewhere about the horrifying disaster and tragedy on Saturday. The least I can do is come here and show my sympathy and support in particular for those who've carried the worst of the burden in looking after everybody, but we are so lucky to have such wonderful security forces and emergency services and doctors and the nurses and all these people, it makes such a huge difference when these desperate tragedies happen.
Q. Does your mind go back ten years to when you were here for the Enniskillen bombing ?
It does indeed and back 20.....19 years when Lord Mountbatten was killed, so I do have some understanding of the awful horrors people have to put up with when their relatives are killed, so I feel very subdued
SUPERCAPTION: HRH highness Prince Charles, Prince of Wales
Prince Charles was given a tour of the devastated shopping street, walking past the blown out shells of once busy shops.
The bomb struck on Saturday morning, tearing through streets that were bustling with people doing their weekend shopping and attending a local carnival.
Charles went on to meet the locals in the town whose spirits seemed to be lifted by his visit.

The bomb struck Saturday morning, tearing through streets that were bustling with people doing their weekend shopping and attending a local carnival.
Now, many of those shoppers and revellers find themselves in hospital beds, still struggling to come to grips with the tragedy.
But they were the lucky ones - spared their lives in the cowardly blast that took the lives of 28 others.
In Belfast city centre a subdued gathering of local people listened to the names of the dead being sombrely read out by the city's mayor
Representatives of all main churches attended, and young and old alike bowed their heads in prayer and stood for several minutes' silence.

The first of many funerals was held on Tuesday as residents mourned the death of 30- year-old Avril Monaghan, a pregnant mother, and her 18-month-old daughter.
It was the first in a long string of difficult moments for Omagh when it must bury its dead and accept the reality of Saturday's carnage.

We ask that you answer our often repeated prayer and in your goodness give us peace in our time.

For those who survived, just as difficult as the physical reminders are the mental scars of an attack that for so many killed a relative, friend or neighbour.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
It just hit me hard because I have an 18 month old baby of my own and it's just, we're still numb, I just can't believe it happened.

No one has yet claimed responsibility for the bombing, which was assured of a high death toll when a false telephoned warning sent residents directly into the bomb's path.

N. IRELAND: OMAGH: AT LEAST 26 KILLED IN CAR BOMB BLAST
English/Nat
A devastating car bomb has killed at least 26 people and injured around 100 in a crowded market town in Northern Ireland.
Scores of people were injured on Saturday in one of the worst atrocities in three decades of conflict in the British-ruled province.
The blast shattered a busy shopping street in Omagh, a religiously mixed town 70 miles (110 kilometres) west of Belfast.
The high number of casualties has been blamed on a phoned warning 40 minutes before the blast that encouraged police to evacuate people in the wrong direction.
One minute a busy market street, the next a scene of tragedy.
Soldiers and police quickly cordoned off the bomb site in Omagh, as emergency vehicles screamed past carrying wounded.
Witnesses said there were bodies and body parts strewn across the bomb site.
Water from burst pipes flowed over the carnage as blood-streaked survivors searched frantically for friends and family.
The bomb exploded some 20 minutes after police began evacuating civilians from where the bomb was thought to be placed.
In fact, the blast caught the crowd which was gathering several hundred yards (metres) away near pubs, shops and a supermarket.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
Q: What did you see? What greeted you when you arrived on the scene?
Oh, absolute carnage. Absolute carnage. I like many others had to abandon our car because we were not able to negotiate any further. So we parked the cars. Everyone ran to the area where the bomb had exploded. It was just a battlefield, if one could compare it, with bodies lying -- scores of injured, seriously injured. People screaming, people running, looking for their children, looking for their mothers. I've never seen devastation like it.
SUPERCAPTION: Paddy McGowan, Independent Community Councillor
SOUNDBITE: (English)
The sad thing is that the police were given a warning about a half an hour before the bomb went off. As I understand it, they thought it was to be in High Street opposite the Court House. However, 200 yards a way down on Market Street is where the actual bomb took place. That's where people actually were congregating towards to try to get away from where the bomb was supposed to be and I think that has added to the whole casualty situation here.
SUPERCAPTION: Joe Byrne, SDLP Councillor and local legislator
Before rescue squads could arrive on the scene, dozens of passers by helped the rescue effort, ferrying injured to safer ground and helping children find their parents.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
And I heard the explosion and I ran to see if I could help people. The devastation was unbelievable and the people didn't deserve this trauma. They didn't deserve it. They don't deserve it anywhere. But it was just unbelievable.
Q: Did you help any people?
Yes, we did as much as we could. But there were so many casualties and so many dead and doctors were on the scene as quick as you could. And everybody was so helpful offering their cars and their services. There was a lot of people you couldn't help. You know, there was one man I tried to help and he just had no face. It was just blown away. There's nothing more I can say. I'm sorry.
SUPERCAPTION: Anne Collin, local taxi driver
Prime Minister Tony Blair called it an appalling act of savagery and evil by people who are determined, whatever the cost to innocent people, to wreck the prospects for peace in Northern Ireland.
Irish Prime Minister Bertie Ahern pledged to ruthlessly suppress terrorist organisations that opposed the wish for peace.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility.
A series of similar car-bomb attacks have been claimed by or blamed on Irish Republican Army dissidents opposed to the outlawed group's July 1997 cease-fire.

N. IRELAND: PREPARATIONS FOR FUNERAL OF MURDERED CATHOLIC BOYS
English/Nat
The funeral has begun for three boys killed in an arson attack in Northern Ireland.
The boys' death has dangerously inflamed tensions in the British province.
The boys were brought up as Protestants but they're having a Catholic funeral.
Police say they believe the family was targeted because their mother, Chrissie Quinn, lived in Ballymoney - a hardline Protestant stronghold - with her Protestant boyfriend.
Their great uncle says their mother's life has been destroyed by the killings.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
I can't see her ever getting over it. They say time is a healer but in this case I don't think so. Totally devastated.
SUPER CAPTION: Harry Patten, great uncle to boys
After the ceremony the bodies will be taken to the nearby town of Rasharkin where the Quinn family has its roots.
The family are burying the boys there so the mother will never again have to visit the town of Ballymoney.
Members of this predominantly Catholic community have been shattered by the death of the boys.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
I don't think she will ever get over it. She doesn't exist in this world, as far as her minds not in this world.
SUPER CAPTION: Vox pop, family friend of grandmother of victims
Colin Parry knows all too well what it's like to lose a family member.
His son Tim dies in an Irish Republican Army bombing in the northern English town of Warrington.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
But yes, in the sense that I know what the family is going through it's very much like what we went through. I can't imagine again going through that pain, but this poor family will be feeling absolutely dreadful. To lose three brothers in one event like this, in such a hideous barbaric way is absolutely desperate.
SOUNDBITE: Colin Parry, father of victim of Warrington bombing
Ms. Quinn is Catholic, but was raising the boys as Protestants because she thought it would make life easier for them in Ballymoney, a hard-line Protestant stronghold about 40 miles northwest of Belfast.
Two men have been questioned in connection with the murders.
