our top story the police in france have arrested a rwandan businessman who's accused of funding the 1994 genocide he's felicien couple got years rwanda's most wanted man and he's been on the run for 25 years the french authorities say the 84 year old has been living under a false identity near paris during the genocide 8 100000 people were killed and up to a 1000000 were displaced live to malcolm webb our correspondent in the kenyan capital nairobi malcolm who was he. well in the early ninety's ninety's in rwanda he's someone who is close to the ruling party and that's the ruling party that eventually. instigated the rwanda genocide many of its officials were later tried and found guilty of genocide and crimes that was a month in ninety's fought to boom self played a key role in the funding and running of

a radio station. which in the tribunals that followed the rwanda genocide where many of the suspects were tried this is douglas that maybe you know played a key role in in the balkans straight in the genocide by targeting community members to turning against each other and militia to massacre at other civilians he was also involved in importing hundreds of thousands of machetes to our many people killed by the brutally using farming tools machetes worldwide and used to conduct these massacres and he. known to. porting them but when the current ruler go under president and his rebel army at that time came into our land in 1904 and many others fled initially went to kinshasa the capital of the democratic republic of congo and then following year 9095 actually registered and ran a business in nairobi after the 9098 he was indicted by tribunals thought

for one of them mentioned and he kind of disappeared but many people believe he was still hiding in nairobi 2006 president barack obama came here an accused to get the kenyan government of hiding it they refuted that other being clear i mean the since then until early this morning and probably when prince arrested in paris won't be living under a false identity but not known how long he's been there that tribe you know for one genocide crimes wrapped up a few years ago the french now want to try him for international crimes is it clear when and where he'll actually appear in a court. no we don't know that yet it's possible that the french officials will bring in court or french judicial before hearing and then he may go to the international court in the hague but we don't know yet that it's not

clear that tribunals for crimes committed during the run when the genocide that was set up in neighboring tanzania run its course so even though he was indicted there he won't be tried there welcome thank you very much. borders and beaches are reopening across europe as countries look to stem the economic damage from the pandemic in italy the government announced it will travel to and from the country starting as of next month since march the country's been under one of the strictest lockdowns anywhere in the world and it's at the tourism reliant economy as priyanka gupta. empty tables deserted holds rooms steeped in history left without visitors there's no one to the gilded walls of italy's finest nazi hotels instead a ghostly silence on the once bustling terrace and the symbol of a pandemic that swept through italy leaving thousands dead devastating its economy

is that this hole would have been crowded noisy with people chatting at the bar visitors passing by and appreciating the beauty of these halls now it's empty lonely it is the 1st time in almost 80 years of the history of this hotel which was built in the thirty's is empty and closed but there are signs of hope the government is allowing people into and out of italy from early next month free travel within the country will also receive in number they want to look forward to the reopening of borders and then there might be the possibility for travel forecast the not positive but we are very optimistic. along italy's coastlines hotel owners are preparing for a different kind of summer but on the other we're ready to host tourists who come to the veneto coast in these last weeks we work to adapt our beaches our hotels and our campsites to the current health emergency we were able to guarantee the

celebrity of a seaside holiday caution is critical for any industry that contributes per 1000 percent to its knees g.d.p. and employs more than 4000000 people the economic impact of the pandemic. it's been devastating to the line of we're estimating they will lose about $18000000000.00 in 2 risen this year but we need to understand what will happen tomorrow on words if hotels have a possibility to reopen in june giving foreign tourists the chance to reach italy we will limit those damages with many countries restricting travel tourist numbers are predicted to fall by between 60 to 80 percent this year closely but many hope that with now the children's business can get moving again and the lights can finally be turned back on. on senior. meanwhile in the u.k. local authorities are urging people to continue to stay at home despite

restrictions being eased this week in england were a challenge went to the beach city a brighton to see if people are heeding that message. i was just speaking to a councillor here who is for the green party and he was saying look it's against every fiber in his body to say this but he's advising anyone who is thinking of coming. on a day trip either from london or elsewhere in the south of england just don't do it because if you come here in great numbers you risk bringing. the disease with you again at the time when the country is just starting to find its way back to well it's not normal life yet but trying to get in that direction and if you can look behind me you can see that these beaches are pretty deserted on any normal weekend in the late spring or summer in any normal year these beaches here would be

absolutely rahm's but they're not the moments the message from from the counselor that we had here in brighton is being repeated in beauty spots local authorities saying the same thing all around this country after the government's slightly ease the restrictions earlier in the week with boris johnson dropping his stay at home message and replacing it with a much ridicules stay alert message instead the message coming from. the places is we still want you to stay at home don't come here a little bit of support back on in germany with the return of the games the football matches 6 games we played on saturday but spectators won't be allowed in to the stadiums following this is dominant germany correspondent based in berlin so no fans allowed but the symbolism not lost on anyone in. not lost on anyone here nor indeed across europe peter because everybody is watching what takes place this

weekend because they want to might it be a template for their own football associations of course there are many fans who want to see sun sort of live football will be trying to find ways to watch what's taking place here in germany both today tomorrow and on monday when this round of games in the borders the takes place 5 games under way right right now only of 2 goals have gone in in the in the course of the past 35 minutes or so but clearly there's plenty more time for more goals to be scored and the question then though is what will the reaction be because there are no founds in these 30 and the germans call them guys to be the ghost games nobody there to see what's really happening and remember also peter that the man in charge of the german football league because the ins i thought his said he he realizes that this this whole resumption is on probation tell us more about these planned protests on the

periphery in quite small we think dominic. well the interesting thing here peter is that for several weekends now many indeed you during the pandemic during the lockdown that has taken place across europe particularly here in germany have been growing process people taking to the streets on saturdays not wearing masks not obeying the instruction of social distancing i.e. getting closer to a german one and a half meters to try to show to the or thorough sees both the state authorities and the federal authorities that they really think the enough is enough they don't want the restrictions to stay in place any longer the interesting thing of course is that many of the restrictions that the you've been marching against protesting against well they've already been loosened it's much much freer now than it was several weeks ago clearly because people see that the numbers of new infections the number of people recovering from the coronavirus well that one is down the one is the other is is is is up as it were and so you have that sense that many people in

society around 80 percent according to the latest opinion poll out today are quite happy with the way the lockdown has been progressing and yet as i say there is a minority who really aren't so far at least they have been dominated by people from the far right of politics certainly that's been the case over the last few weekends and so today we know that there are some protests in berlin some in short gart son in munich big cities around germany and they are mobilizing several 1000 people but bear in mind also that the police have much powers during this pandemic to enforce order and so that means that they are moving in to stop any kind of gathering which which appears to be more than the police believe they can manage in the suggestion is that once it gets over a certain number of 1000 in munich they're stepping in to stop it don thanks very much. a serbian orthodox bishop and 8 priests have been freed from jail in montenegro they were arrested for violating coronavirus restrictions by holding

ok let's recap the top stories for you so far the it to these governments is to use travel restrictions from early next month all international travel and movement within the country will be allowed italy was the 1st country in europe to impose a nationwide locked. in germany the bundesliga football tournament has resumed 6 games we played but spectators will not be allowed inside stadiums 5 games being played right now french police have arrested a robot under businessman who's accused of funding the 1994 genocide since from the c.n.n. . he's been on the run for 25 years the authorities in france say the 84 year old has been living under a false identity close to the arabs feel clark is a professor and an author on africa he says could bloggers arrest is a significant legal moment the genocide couldn't happen without he basically bankrolled the entire genocide he basically produced created and

funders the interim homme one militias which carried out many of the largest massacres during the genocide he also bankrolled the mind height right station that incited many of the 2 massacres and he also denied the import of about 500000 machetes into the country without which the killing spree would have been an impossible sort so really without the genocide simply couldn't have happened on and his arrest tonight is are is an incredibly significant legal moment and he has been protected in kenya for a very long time in fact it's a great surprise to many rwanda watchers that that he's ended up in paris so i don't think many people realize that but he managed to find sites passage to strongs this is a key element of this story because could go always had very close relations with with mr owens government in france he's very well connected in italy circles are in paris and i think his arrest today will also. rice questions about how much science

he has received from the french government in recent years the u.n. tribunal which is still up and running in a residual why it wants to prosecute. the u.n. want to shut that tribunals but i would love to have computer as their last suspect i would love to go out with a big legal bank but by the same token the rwandan authorities want to prosecute him in $2.00 to prosecute configuring to dolly in many ways would be the equivalent of arguments trial in jerusalem it would mean an enormous amount to the room under the legal system but more importantly it's seen as crucial for rwandan genocide survivors and rwandan society generally that he be prosecuted into in a courtroom where he can be seen by every general one people and where the impact of that trial can be felt very strongly domestically. food prices in the u.s. have seen the biggest monthly increase in nearly 50 years and seeping more pressure

on americans struggling to make ends meet during the pandemic john hendren reports from chicago. just when they can afford it least americans are suffering sticker shock at the grocery store the meat the deli. the ham the cheese even the bread is costing more now according to the u.s. labor department food prices rose 2.6 percent in april the biggest monthly jump in 46 years prices for staples like meat and eggs surged even more i'm a single parent i have a mortgage i have a car note still you kind of picnic what's priority right now do i pay my mortgage or do i go grocery shopping with tens of millions of americans newly unemployed more than it any time since the great depression soaring prices mean long lines at food banks and more americans than ever questioning where their next meal will come from ali because we already are worried that people are stuck in their house and

senate happened and now we know that what people who are stuck in our house that number one in 5 families is food in secure she says the number is 2 in 5 for families with children under 12 and higher for african-american and hispanic families. as meat plant workers have grown ill and died from the global pandemic dozens of plants shut down and walk around over 17 out of people. that they've you know president trump ordered the plants to reopen with new precautions in the said he plans to change visa rules so that plants can keep foreign workers in the u.s. longer to replace those who are sick or under quarantine but panic buying and a supply chain slowed by social distancing are driving prices higher. chicago's meat packing district is filled with restaurants now the slaughterhouses and meat packing plants have moved to rural areas but the meat is still traded on the chicago commodities exchange a few blocks away where prices have been steadily rising with no cure and no

vaccine in sight the rising arc of food prices continues to mimic the growth of the virus itself john hendren al-jazeera chicago well as countries begin easing restrictions many people have become used to working from home and it's left some wondering whether these changes are here or here for good the twitter c.e.o. jack dorsey announced last week that his staff can carry on working from home indefinitely and facebook and google say their staff can continue doing the same thing until next year many other companies are assessing the costs research shows benefits include greats of productivity and improved work life balance and better mental health but some employees can feel isolated or distracted which poses other challenges for employers. as the c.e.o. of a dot ai that's a web based platform that analyzes employee motivation he says managing people's needs will be challenging. so some people the whole reason for them going to work

like we have data is in a tuning that's all social relationships and going to build those relationships are why they go if they're going to be working from remote for too long by themselves only seeing their families which has good things of course over and over and over it they're not going to be able to do it so it i think it's there's a certain segment that wants to be in the office all the time and a certain segment that really like the remote work and would prefer this to be it but where it's going to be difficult for companies it's probably the majority in between that like a little bit of this and a little bit of that and how do you set up policies because if it's remote work 1st then it's kind of easier to manage everybody you get everybody on the skype call but if there's groups in person and groups outside you don't have that equal kind of conversation and level of relationship and i think we're going to kind of see faces is many companies are going to get that physical infrastructure ok you got the zune calls or the sky calls or the collaboration tools but how do you keep

people productive how do you deal with the mental health i think there is a mental health benefits but there's also a kind of loneliness in the people that have social relationships as a big intrinsic motivator how are they going to be able to get their needs met i think so there's a lot of complications i will be coming for these next years for us. dozens of surrogate babies have been left stranded in ukraine because of the virus locked up ukraine is among many countries that are close their borders to foreigners it means adoptive parents from china the u.s. and europe have been unable to take them home. reports. are now these new parents were supposed to be at home internet or siri. there's change in officially run by a reproduction clinic in ukraine they were born to circuit mothers for foreigners but at the country's close borders the parents can travel to them and nurses are now looking after them. in the corner with my wife.
