a clash with the democratic governor of the u.s. state of illinois the u.s. president telling the governors that they need to dominate they need to a rasta and they need to try people he once again blamed the source of the violent protests on the radical left as he called it he also said it's a movement if you don't put it down it will get worse and he said the only reason that this movement has it succeeded so far is because you told the governors you are weak now to be clear the only role that the military can have in terms of the sort of trying to quell this violence would be in a support role yet the u.s. president urging the governors to again call on the military the this is something that the national guard can do that he has the joint chiefs of staff general milley standing by but again he is blaming the governors accusing them of not doing enough

not using the federal resources that are available to them he said this is something we've done in washington d.c. and you'll see something done like never before now that is another for a sort of friction point because i can tell you the national guard has been called in here in washington d.c. but of course we've continued to see violent clashes outside the printer of the white house and in fact we should point out adrian that there is a curfew in place but that is also have little effect now will we hear from the u.s. president it is unclear what we can tell you is there is a press briefing at 800 g.m.t. we'll be watching that very carefully we do know the press secretary will be speaking to reporters whether the president will also use that opportunity we still don't know why his house correspondent kelly holcomb reporting live from washington kimberly that he's. police have been accused of being heavy handed while dealing with protests this is what new york's mayor bill de blasio has been saying about offices who overstepped their authority any situation where an officer does

something even in the context of a protest in a tense situation they do something offensive inappropriate there must be immediate investigation there must be the appropriate penalty and that penalty here include all the way up to being removed from the police force there's a video going around of a police officer in the middle of a situation that admittedly looked chaotic but where protesters were in front of that police officer or a police officer drew his gun at some point yesterday that to me seeing that video was absolutely unacceptable and serious kristen salumi in new york has more on the mass comments. well the men talked about the fact that the overwhelming majority of the protests that have been taking place in the streets for the past 4 days now have been peaceful and police overwhelmingly have shown restraint with demonstrators he had to answer to some of the videos that have been circulating

showing police officers doing things that were questionable he mentioned just there an officer who pulled a gun another video surfaced over the weekend of 2 patrol cars driving into a crowd of protesters very dangerous situation there he received some criticism for not criticizing the police officers strongly enough he did so more strongly today trying to insist that and no police misconduct will be tolerated and that the city will take a hard line on that at the same time that they're dealing with violent outbreaks on the streets as well there was also an incident last night that involved looting in lower manhattan and the mayor was also critical of that saying that. this had to be dealt with and was not helping the situation he described people causing violence as outside agitators there's been talk from the police department about

organized efforts to provoke violence at some of these demonstrations but he did not get specific as to which groups what he did say is that they will be dealt with and that such activities will not be allowed but really a lot of time overwhelmingly spent on dealing with accusations of police misconduct 2 offices have been sacked in the city of atlanta georgia they were filmed using excessive force against protesters. reports. police misconduct amid nationwide protests and police misconduct police in riot gear surround a car with 2 young black people inside. one slashes a tire thanks. as the driver's window through which. the young woman is taped and violently dragged out although she is not resisting. 7

the male driver is manhandled and also shocked with a taser even though each room doesn't appear to resist but put down put it down to go for us on sunday after the police body cam video went viral 2 of the policemen were fire authorities identified them as ivory streeter and mark gardner writes this was atlanta georgia on saturday night for protesters calling for justice for the death in minneapolis of george floyd it could have been almost anywhere in the us atlanta mayor keesha lance bottom's said the officers actions were unacceptable sometime during the night i saw a very disturbing video of 2 young college students. who were in downtown atlanta yesterday evening and it was disturbing on

many levels. the least of not which was that the air clearly was an excessive use of force the 3 other officers were placed on desk duty and main face further discipline plan as police chief apologized how we behaved as an agency as individuals was unacceptable and i know that we cause further fear. to you in a space that's already so here folks for so many african-americans. and i am genuinely sorry this is not who we are this is not where we were about another disturbing video from los angeles shows a police vehicle excel orating into protesters knocking 2 of them down it then reverse that high speed nearly striking other people no one was seriously injured rob reynolds al-jazeera los angeles and chicago some businesses have been destroyed

by rioting more than 65000 calls were made to emergency services in a single day the city's mayor has promised to help rebuild neighborhoods what we saw last night is completely heart wrenching to me personally and i know to many of you who i have spoken to and heard from updates that i received all day and night from our all the men from local community leaders about the attacks on local store fronts and particularly our small black owned businesses is nothing short of devastating let's take you now to a few blocks away from where george floyd arrest happened in minneapolis it's also where the violence that's now spread nationwide began destroyed parts of the neighborhood jay gray reports. and i want to show you how intense that fire was

firsthand you can see it has gutted the buildings here and there are scenes like this that play out not only in this neighborhood where just a week ago to the day george cloyd was killed but also across the city that are just devastated you can see the flames leaping up here 4 stories and really taking everything that they could swallow here and then as you move along you can see just the entire property in fact we were moved earlier we were on the other side sitting teams are out and surveying things trying to start to pull things together and move some of this debris out they said this building was too close to falling down they wanted us to get away from that side of the building because of the lack of safety with the structure look the protests have continued from the night that floyd was killed here what changed overnight though was the intensity as far as violence damaged like this and just the

interaction with police it was much colder here thankfully minnesota's governor tim walz has thanked protests is for lunch the peaceful displays we saw large peaceful protests focusing on the systemic changes that get to the heart of why we're in this situation and when i say we minneapolis same path the state of minnesota nationally and as we've seen over the last 24 hours internationally a society that does not put equity in inclusion at the center of it is certainly going to eventually come to the places where we're at police in portland in the west coast state of oregon we're involved in a standoff with protesters they use tear gas and stun grenades to disperse crowds fire as well is and some trying to break police barricades portland is among the cities that imposed or overnight curfews. a weather update next here on to 0 then

the longer detached observers journalists become a targeted for both police and protesters plus. i'm wayne hay in oakland new zealand we will tell you why corona virus may change the way our cities are designed. how the weather remains hot and dry across much of the middle east but we are still keeping an eye on what remains of a tropical system just around the southern side of the peninsula now we have seen some very heavy rains flooding rains in fact some parts of amman saying a route a 1000 millimeters of rain about a meter of rain in just 4 or 5 days hence the watch spread flooding here the wetter weather is now making its way into yemen and it will continue to drive a little further west which is because for the next over towards that western side

of yemen bright skies do come back a bit further north as we go with a hot sunshine and even here in doha with that we could touch 43 degrees by wednesday afternoon on dry across a good part of north africa as well the usual shallows continuing there through the gulf of guinea where we are seeing quite widespread showers now the seasonal rains again making good progress we've had the recent flooding in ghana more heavy showers down across much of west africa liberia sierra leone pushing up towards the gambia seeing more heavy downpours as we go on through the coming days those showers will they join up with the showers that we have across the democratic republic of congo pushing all the way over towards youth european highlands with a few showers the coastal parts of somalia. from fossil fuels to modern day renewables as societies develop the energy demands

a tougher stance. new york city's mayor says that action must be taking against police officers who are heavy handed when dealing with protesters the city just like other parts of the us a scene days of protests against the death of a black man in police custody. 2 police officers in the u.s. city of atlanta that fired for using excessive force during protests police around the car slashed his tires and used the taser to people for dragging them to the ground handcuffing the. journalists covering the anti police brutality protests have increasingly come under attack by police officers themselves even after clearly identifying themselves as journalists in addition to having tear gas fired directly at the crews are getting roughed up wide across the country on sunday a camera man from the b.b.c. was rammed by police outside the white house. reporter with vice filmed this moment where he was forced to the ground and pepper sprayed despite identifying himself

repeatedly. police fired pepper balls at this reporter during a live cross in louisville others have been shot at with rubber coated steel bullets photographer linda linda toronto was partially blinded by one while covering protests in minneapolis on friday the same day a teen from c.n.n. was arrested on live television they were released a short time later the state's governor has apologized. body stephens is an international press institute board member and a professor at the university of missouri school of journalism she joins us now from columbia missouri good to have you with us professor am i right in thinking that the journalists enjoy a certain privilege there are constitutional protections in the u.s. for journalists are absolutely we have 1st amendment protection for journalists journalists are the eyes and ears built into the u.s. constitution and that the journalists would be

a checks and balance on not only government but institutions the government as well including the police so what are we to make of these attacks deliberate in many cases the police deliberately ignoring the fact that journalists are showing them their credentials what are we to make of of these attacks. i just got off the phone with a reporter from the des moines register who has been covering these these riots all over a his city and he is a colleague of andrea hsu who was attacked and pepper sprayed and even are arrested for her part the in covering these disturbances and andrea was shouting i'm pressed and pressed and pressed and they pepper sprayed her anyway so that is really disturbing she was covering a disturbance outside of a model in west des moines and this is unfortunately

a continuation of the disregard for the role of the press that we saw also in the ferguson riots here in missouri why do you think the police a doing this is it because they think that they will get away with it that that that they were be held accountable for their actions does the president's dog whistle language have anything to do with this concerning the press. well that's a really interesting question in 2018 i was a press mission to the united states along with other press freedom organizations and we looked into what had happened including what happened after the. service and riots here in missouri and and really we see have seen since the beginning of the trumpet ministration a a widespread distrust of the press fueled by the president's own tweets and own words continuing calling the media here in the united states the enemy of the

people and certainly putting down the role that that we play in in the important information cycle getting information out to the world about what's happening so yes to answer your question there is sort of a feeling by local sheriffs as well as as men. something larger police forces that there's a bit of impunity that journalists are impeding the police's ability to do their job not understanding that the press has an important role and actually can't even protect the police just certain extent because they are filming everything so given the journalists enjoy this this privilege under under the 1st amendment how can they can they fight back in this case how can they change the behavior of the police is it up to the big organizations to take police forces in a sheriff's to cold. well we're certainly trying in the courts for certainly trying

with advocacy groups like the international presence to to get i'm on the board of as well as the committee to protect journalists and article 19 around the world to sort of bring to attention in fact i testified before the human rights commission in geneva 2 years ago demanding that truth is a human right and that we must continue to respect the human rights of the press being able to bring the truth to the masses really gets to a tip for somebody thanks did not the stephens there in columbia missouri thank you in libya there's a new battle underway south of tripoli fighters loyal to the warlord khalifa haftar up in our control of the town of assad just kilometers away from an important supply line local sources have told al jazeera that a drone with up to 25 armed vehicles were part of the offensive the situation on

swedish for this collaboration to continue south africa has eased some of its coronavirus restrictions 2 months after it started one of the strictest lockdowns on the continent the partial lifting of measures allows more people to return to work and for places of worship to reopen but schools won't be open for another week after teachers unions complained about student safety for me to miller reports from johannesburg. some parents in the western cape province are angry that schools they have reopened they say stuff i'm not prepared to keep students safe 2 months into a national lockdown that's kept people indoors except for essential services or to buy food across the rest of south africa schools remained closed a last minute decision by the government not responding the reopening for a week. i mean concept. night. meant.

to deal with. safety. as well. the government's eased other restrictions including the ban on the sale of alcohol which will be sold for consumption at home unspecified days and during certain hours but the sale of tobacco products is still pretty habited the government has been under pressure to reopen the economy which was already in recession before the lockdown began it's estimated that millions will lose their jobs if the strict measures are extended most industries have reopened with more than $8000000.00 south africans returning to work under what the government calls strict health protocols but as millions of people use public transport to get to and from work or concerns that social distancing may not be possible ristorante spas and cinemas

remain shut the owners of this restaurant in johannesburg say that had to improvise to keep their business going transforming it into a health food emporium it may be months before restaurants can open their doors previously our. business was about 90 percent of the darkness of the restaurant so we realized that we couldn't kind of waits we don't have the resources to wait that long so we needed to look for a new way to actually generate revenue the government has identified haase parts around the country including major cities such as johannesburg durban and cape town it says that while the lockdown has been eased the restrictions in the cities will be revised every 2 weeks with more than 30000 infections there are concerns that south africa is months away from hitting the peak of the pandemic health experts say that could happen between july and november causing at least 40000 deaths the worry now is that

a lack of adequate preparation might to worsen the outcome for me al-jazeera janice burg. primary schools in england have reopened it's part of prime minister boris johnson's plan to kick start britain's economy but not all children are back in the classroom some local authorities have refused to open schools due to safety concerns. istanbul's iconic market the grand bazaar has reopened after its longest closure in more than 550 years it was shot and launches posits coronavirus restrictions was a serious sin and cos the only reports. the sound was historical grandpas are real phones in stores today after being closed for 17 days due to corona virus measures the procedure is always the same. they travel to temperature and away ring a face mask is mandatory this suffering more has been built during the 14 sixties

businessmen. their expectation for the smooth the no 7 days well our expectation that he just wished it's going to be better but of course we don't have a call from it till september. i hope till beginning of the september everything will be wonderful and better let's wait and see is the scurry for. there is absolutely. no idea among the shop owners here let's wait and see until september until everything is much safer and sounder. the pandemic has changed how many people live and it's forcing a rethink of how cities in towns are built wayne hay in new zealand takes a look now at how health priorities a changing urban design. as more people emerge from the coronavirus hibernation they're finding their communities a changing in many cities and towns around the world footpads are being widened to allow for more space between pedestrians or as it's known now social distancing

more cycle lanes are being created so there's less reliance on public transport in new zealand so called technical urbanism the process of making quick interim low cost changes that over time become permanent was being trial before the pandemic now the government is investing in modifying city streets momentum has been built and certainly a lot of people that we work with the local council around the country already thinking about this way of operating and working and so i think crown of ours kind of artists in personalized some of the kind of effect of tolls labor has to offer next price you know it's happening all over the world including in the spanish capital madrid with some roads being closed to vehicles to allow for cycling and pedestrians on the one of him i'm still colliding with others but i think it's a great idea and they should keep it up. and coronavirus may change a lot more about the way we live and work if we are to adapt and learn from

coronavirus in terms of the way we design our cities and lifestyles then it won't necessarily be a new thing over the centuries pandemics in outbreaks of lead to significant changes in infrastructure design and policy that ultimately created healthier safer environments now architects in urban planners are looking at what this pandemics. might be like cities with more open shared spaces making facilities like sports venues able to be quickly changed for another use designing healthy a buildings that rely less on a conditioning and more on natural ventilation and lights and posing the question to many of us really need to physically go to work at all therefore making urban centers less congested. and so. the concern is however that as the

world recovers from the pandemic the appetite for significant change in urban design and architecture will fade governments are investing now but may not be so keen as the economic fallout from cova $1000.00 worsens and money is diverted elsewhere but those pushing for change say the cost of not preparing for the next outbreak would be too high wayne hay al jazeera auckland's. it's good to have you with us hello adrian from going to here in doha the headlines on al-jazeera u.s. president donald trump has criticized the response of state governments to nationwide demonstrations during a conference call he said they look weak and should take a tougher stance new york city's mayor says that action must be taken against police officers who are heavy handed when dealing with protesters the city just like other parts of the us
