Shots ... Australian troops fan out from the airport / Reuters SHOOTING broke out in the centre of Dili today as a new deployment of Australian soldiers headed into the capital on foot on a mission to restore peace.

More troops were also landing at the airport and Australia expected to have its entire 1300-strong task force in place by the end of the weekend.
East Timor's Foreign Minister Jose Ramos-Horta said that his government would hand over responsibility for security in the capital, Dili, to Australian troops.

But even as the soldiers depolyed there was news of one family being burned to death in their home in mob violence, and the UN said East Timor's police force was in "disarray". >>>cont
