thousands of headlines with different angles from different perspectives separate the spin from the facts. with the listening post on al-jazeera. more than 40 people have died in a fire and one of the oldest markets in delhi. i'm adrian forgetting this is al jazeera live from doha coming up thousands of people are out on the streets of hong kong there marking 6 months of protests calling for greater democracy and police accountability. u.s. investigators widen the inquiry into the shooting by a saudi officer at a naval base but so far they're not calling it

a terror incident. and were in nasiriyah one of the epicenters of violence during the anti-government protests in iraq. in a crowded market in india's capital new delhi which has killed more than 40 people it happened at a grain market the scale of the disaster is only now emerging rescue workers so they did everything possible to save people who were trapped by the flames. we have rescued 52 people so far we got a call at 522 this morning and deployed 4 fire engines and then later sent 35150 firefighters are involved in the operation the risky people have been sent to hospitals the operation is underway and we believe a few people are still inside the building. lived out to new delhi and what's the

situation now is the fire under control and show. well the police are saying the fire is under control but we do believe the fire minister trying to find out of there any more people buried inside this fire took place early this morning and over 60 people were rescued including those who have sadly passed they could not sustain the injuries we believe that over 40 people have died more than 16 are injured the cause of the fire is not yet officially known as not been officially revealed to the press but many of the senior police officers are saying that it was suffocation we also learned that about 30 fire trucks were rushed to the spot and that the relatives of many of these people who come from relatively poor indian states are now rushing to the 2 hospitals where the injured have been taken the delhi government has also ordered an inquiry into this case and the delhi police has escalated to the level at which the this is going to be

investigated and the case has been transferred to from normal police the crime branch of delhi police so that is sort of an indication that the government is trying to send a message that they are taking this seriously given the age of this this place this moccasin that the lack of of safety features that built into it to what extent was this a disaster waiting to happen. well yes that is what some analysts are saying you know we have a disaster last year we've had several such disasters unifies reaching out to across the country and many people say these are disasters waiting to happen because safety norms are are are regularly not followed flouted by the building owners these factories this i believe is a bad manufacturing factories and in this area there were several other walk shops although small factories one can call them were operating and they don't usually follow any norms and it's sort of common knowledge adrian that that's really not

done and hence these are disasters that are waiting to that are we to happen we also believe that this is a very crowded market as are many other markets in delhi and across the country where cheap labor is brought in they're made to work long hours they're paid very little i don't top of that they also have to stay where they work as happened in this case these laborers slept in their factory during the night i'm assuming that's what they did that is where that was their home too because of fire took place early in the morning so they were inside the factory when this happened. out 0 vote are reporting live from new delhi actual many thanks indeed. large crowds are marching on the streets of hong kong to demand greater protection of human rights the march is being organized by the same group that arranged the 1st multi 1000000. june police approved sunday's rally but they're warning that they'll call it off if there's any violence that's collapsed out of hong kong i was serious

adrian brown can tell us more adrian 6 months on one of these protests actually achieved if anything. well they have managed to get that controversial extradition bill dropped remember that was the thing that triggered these protests in the 1st place but this protest movement has now led to many more demands being made the protesters want as you mentioned you're in your introduction more democratic for reform the chance to elect their leader and also they're calling for an independent commission of inquiry into police actions during the past 6 months now if hong kong's in battle leader caroline was to a seat to just one of those demands i think it would go some way to diffusing the crisis that is yet she is showing no inclination of doing so just 2 weeks ago of course the government party suffered a crushing defeat in district council elections and that has emboldened the protest

movement here it was a belief that election result basically was an indorsement for this 6 month campaign but 6 months on the voice of protest shows no signs of diminishing. it began peacefully on june the 9th with a march against a bill for an extradition deal with china and the protest movement might well have ended then if hong kong's chief executive kerry lamb had heeded their demand to the absolutely found a man had succeeded with the withdrawal of the bill to safeguard our freedom nothing would have happened. benson haute never saw him self as a front line activist but that's what he's become he's been arrested and forced to leave home. i told my dad we're going out to fight for the rights we deserve we had a big fight and after that he said move out move out if you don't want to stay at home anymore. benson was also there when protesters smashed their way into the

heart of hong kong's government the debating chamber of the legislative assembly many wearing the hard hats and face masks that have become symbols of this leaderless movement. as the long hot summer rolled on the air became more toxic. it was now a color many in white chasing and beating those in black the color of the protest movement. tara i said again tara but terrorism aided by foreign hands is how beijing defined it after its liaison office in hong kong was attacked and defaced. mainland owned businesses were also targeted. as were transport links subway stations were vandalized and forced to shut tunnels were closed and thousands of flights canceled after protesters occupied the international airport arrivals lounge chinese leaders have repeatedly warned they

would send in the people's liberation army to restore order yet that still hasn't happened they fear that if they work mobilize the people's liberation army garrison in hong kong than china will lose face because. chinese rule. they have not won the hearts and minds. police figures reflect a society tearing itself apart at least 2 deaths more than $10000.00 tear gas canisters fired and almost $6000.00 arrests. more fatalities seem possible after students turned a university campus into a fortress the fiery standoff with police becoming a defining moment of the unrest in spite of the violence local elections went ahead with voters sending a clear message of support to those agitating for greater democracy

a few days later there was another setback for china's leaders u.s. president donald trump signed into law a bill aimed at protecting human rights in hong kong and punishing those deemed responsible for suppressing them. and why hasn't china intervened militarily as it's threatened to do so. well that is the perplexing question isn't it as when he lands mentioned in that report i think one of the reasons why is that president xi jinping perhaps smells a rat if he were to send troops into hong kong it would perhaps we could his position if it all went badly wrong i remember china has an awful lot tied up in hong kong financially if troops were to be sent into hong kong adrian i think you know hong kong would lose its special status and that would mean that the money that china has in here would also be lost and it's worth pointing out that in spite of the arm rest despite the trouble during the past 6 months some of the biggest

international price offerings of the here are some of the biggest flotations of all happened here the only one stock market and the reason that that is if you are the stock markets of the world could handle those flood taking those flotation so that is another reminder of just why you know china needs hong kong and needs home phone to survive and succeed. brown reporting live from hong kong adrian many thanks. the u.s. is widening the investigation into the attack at a naval base in florida on friday saudi national mohammed saeed ronni shot dead 3 students at an aviation school 10 saudi citizens are now being questioned about the shooting the u.s. defense secretary says it's too early to call it an act of terrorism course we extend our condolences to all the families affected by it and touched by it and our military community downer but no like i can't say it's terrorism at this time i think we need to let the investigators the f.b.i.
