understand the differences and similarities of cultures across the world so no matter how you take it we'll bring you the news and current affairs that matter to you. think. a low i maryam namazie you're watching the news hour live from london coming up in the next 60 minutes a german hospital treating russian opposition leader alexina valley says tests indicate he was poisoned. and other 2 leading opposition figures are arrested in béla reuss outside a factory west office staging an anti a strike. a

national guard is summoned in wisconsin after protests erupt over the police shooting of a black man. 7 if you want to really drive crazy you see or hear. it in drops in on day one of the republican convention in north carolina which has formally nominated him as its candidate. i don't be disturbed in doha with a homecoming for european football's champion club. was that it's not a big welcoming party for the boy in munich his friends were told to keep their distance because of coronavirus. a very warm welcome to the news hour german doctors treating russian opposition to alexina valmy say test results show that he was poisoned with

a substance that sushi found in pesticides and nerve agents the german chancellor angela merkel has now called on moscow to identify the perpetrators and hold them to account the valley remains in a medically induced coma after being transferred to lynn from a hospital in siberia on saturday doctors say his situation is serious but not life threatening longtime opponent of president vladimir putin collapsed on a plane on thursday colleagues say all he had to drink was a cup of tea at tom's airport before he fell ill or a german medical team detected a substance from a group of cholesterol inhibitors in the valleys blood now these types of drugs can increase communication between nerve cells in the brain and is sometimes used to ease dementia symptoms but some types of colon asteroids inhibitors they used as pesticides and a toxic to humans now valley has been treated with an antidote atropine which is the same drug that was used to treat a scrip al a former russian double agent and his daughter yulia who were poisoned with

a nerve agent in 2018 in salzburg england well dominic kane is following developments in burlington and says that the suspected poison has very few civilian applications. the doctors treating alex in our valley have been quite categorical about what they believe is the cause of his ordeal they say that there is a toxin of poison in his system which has laid him low they say they don't believe that this is life threatening now but they can't guarantee that he's going to be able to recover fully from the extent of his ordeal the specific poison in his system belongs to a family of chemicals which have very few civilians there are a few sick applications only for conditions such as dementia or outside of this disease and we know that mr nardelli has never complained of suffering from those conditions in which case you have to consider the other applications for this poison and that is pesticides and then nerve agents that's to say chemical weapons

the point about this is that this revelation about poison in his system has prompted a reaction from the german government with the foreign minister of the chancellor angela merkel making a joint statement in which they call upon the authorities in russia fully to investigate what caused this to happen to do so in a transparent manner and then to bring to account to bring to justice those responsible for the ordeal that mr nardelli has now been going through for several days professor allison hay is a specialist of environmental toxicology at the university of leeds and he says that the most deadly cholesterol is inhibitors are notorious nerve agents. those are the preserve generally of governments the nerve agents their variety seren and reeling off some names here now sour and taboo on like the compound the x. that was used on the north korean leader's half brother in malaysia and killed him

. those substances are all what you would find within governments they're all strictly regulated and they shouldn't be any in general circulation not a truck type chemicals also fall into that category they're ones where you would expect it to come from some government source very unlikely for an individual to have it although it is not beyond the ability of competent chemists with good facilities good protection in their laboratories for the person making that substance for them to be able to make it or russian health officials say no valid tested negative for colleen estrace and habits as when he was hospitalized in siberia last week and the doctors who treated him tonight have been poisoned. but we will we were treating the patient and we saved him there wasn't and couldn't

have been any outside influence on the patients treatment of those 1st the last almost gotten so you have. the diagnosis of poisoning remained until the end of the day until a 12 i'm not mistaken we received a final conclusion from 2 laboratories that no toxic chemicals that can be considered poisons or by products of poisons were found. and xandra stay on of each card for it is a journalist based in moscow and has more on the segment by russian doctors. what they're saying is that we didn't have clinical symptoms that are characteristic of intoxication with the current there is says inhibitors what they're also saying is they did best for death and found nothing a one of the doctors that was flown in from a moscow to help treat no i want to help determine what is what is wrong with him what happened to him also says that he didn't hear any new from from germany what he says is that they also from the start started getting up dropping to me that

they also thought the might be what is the now the diagnosis of the german doctors but they moved from there since a lab results came negative for on the possible toxins that would cause this state so what he's also pointing out is that look also german didn't find the specific royson like ours did and on the other hand by his family a russian opposition in general is saying we were telling you from the start this was poisoning what you were suspecting now is confirmed by german clinic and what they now want is a thorough investigation. well our other top story this hour the opposition coordination council in better roost says it's committed to the goal of forming a transitional government despite police detained until it hits members around $200000.00 protesters defied soldiers deployed in the capital minsk on sunday to

again demand the resignation of president alexander lukashenko he's been in power for 26 years and is accused of rigging the election earlier this month that handed him another term in office. is a member of that coordination council and says and i'm afraid. when it was then it is. we constantly experience this kind of pressure but it doesn't scare me or make me stop doing what i'm doing now on the contrary it unites us more the fact that there are more applications to become members after the opening of the criminal case on charges of undermining national security shows that bella russians are united we are now stronger than ever in our will to express the people's will. is there a step and has been following this story from inside the enemies and has moved from minsk now on the detention of opposition leader as well this morning they were arrested when they were at this truck the factory in minsk on this factory has

played quite a big role during the protests there were a lot just strikes they are going to be basically been leading the strikes also in this in the last couple of weeks they were just picked up our you know riot police when they were standing outside a lot of them is the leader of this strike us who has become the leader of the national strike i would say and we it's working at this track for factory on the autobahn is a campaign manager for a lot of the. well u.s. deputy secretary of state steven bacon is in neighboring lithuania where he met with ban a russian opposition in effect on it to kind of she was forced to flee but a race after that disputed presidential election i did have a chance to meet with mrs signal. she's a very impressive person and i can see why she is so popular in her country the purpose of the meeting was to listen to hear what the thinking is the bell receive people in to see what they what they are doing to obtain the right to

self-determination for the united states is part we we condemn the violation of human rights of the brutality that we've seen play out in bell groups since the elections and we call upon the government of ela groups to release all political prisoners that they're currently holding. you're watching the news hour live from london much more still ahead super charged by lightning storms firefighters in california battle some of the biggest blazes in the state's history. off the storming through the caribbean the u.s. gulf coast braces for hurricane laura. and he was known as lightning bolt well now the world's fastest man fears he's been struck down by corona virus. now a governor of the u.s. state of wisconsin has some in the national guard off to angry protests in the city of show over the police shooting of an unarmed black man on sunday.

footage shows officers firing at chaika blake several times his 3 young sons were reported to be in the car at the time his father says the 29 year old is now out of surgery and in a stable condition and overnight curfew has been imposed on the town of black lives massive protests turned violent of the night crowds gathered at the scene of the shooting setting fires and throwing molotov cocktails at police the officers involved have been put on leave. john hendren is live for us now and can osha at the scene of the shooting so what is the the mood the atmosphere like today. well throughout town it is definitely a somber day i'm standing at the spot where jacob blake spent those last moments

before being shot by police if you see that mattress on the curb behind me that's about where he was when that viral video you just showed was his lawyer says old 3 of his children were there inside of the car that they watched their father be shot 7 times he's now we're told in stable condition and it is unclear why police perceived him as a threat his lawyer benjamin crump says that what actually happened was he came out to break up a fight on this street that somehow police had been called to this same fight as well and for some reason they followed him to his car and it played out as you saw but this is a pellet lee just the latest incident i mean reportedly one armed black man who was shot by police captured on video in that video went viral and that set off

those sometimes violent protests last night where the city brought in garbage trucks to block off the center of town where the government buildings were those were set on fire and of course you've got the curfew tonight you've got national guard troops coming in but it's my experience having covered the george floyd protests and many many others in chicago and elsewhere that those protesters are not going to abide by that curfew in that could make for an interesting night tonight possibility of confrontations but we should also add most of those demonstrations that we have seen anyway have been peaceful. what about the investigation where are we with that. well those officers have been put on the lead the mayor was pressured by a bunch of people many of them wearing black lives matter shirts they wanted the officers arrested and charged the mayor tried to say that he would pursue an

investigation and that those decisions would be made afterwards the crowd pretty much shouted him down him and he went back into the municipal building and that confrontation ended a little unpleasantly we don't know where to go from here in the case of the george floyd case the incident happened on a monday by the friday the 1st officer had been charged that is highly unusual but once again this is an incident that was captured on videotape so it is possible that things may move more quickly here but right now the into surveys and in the streets is that there will be more people filling the streets as the night goes on there should be a gathering there's a rally planned for 6 o'clock local time that's in about 2 hours from now thank you very much i will get back to you a bit later than john hendren that shot wisconsin. so i'm now joined from baltimore by that's the spencer professor of political science and africana studies

at johns hopkins university and it's i suppose it's the video the bt stands out here that appears to show jacob blake being shot in the back by police it's obviously very distressing to see this but it also highlights highlights how invaluable this this kind of footage is. yes if you think about the civil rights movement one of the things that gave the civil rights movement its power was that it happened at the same time as you see basically a national t.v. video that t.v.'s last video news apparatus developed so right so people could actually see with their own eyes basically black southerners and in some cases their white colleagues and white comrades being brutalized and that really shifted our race shifted our attitudes about jim crow racism it shifted our political policy right but our but at the same time it's important to stand that those policy

changes happened a long time after everything star so what does that mean that it's not making enough of an impact now when people in obviously you've got an election coming up when people see this kind of footage american sedate particularly white americans concerned enough about race. well it what it is so when i look at civil rights movement so emmett till was killed in either 5455 the civil rights the 1st civil rights act of 64 the voting rights act to 65 the housing rights act is 968 so approximately 13 to 14 no 1010. 9 to 10 years after and then like 10 the 15 years after you actually get the policies because you're talking about political change this isn't a national dynamic even though it occurs nationally police are governed by state politics right so in the wisconsin case can no suspends approximately 25 percent of

his budget on policing more than any other indicator in order to change that what has to happen is it is simple as getting trumpet office you actually have to engage in wisconsin politics and that stuff takes a while so the reason i talk about that is because it's really important for folks to understand is not as if george floyd is killed in may and jacob blake is killed and then nothing changes is this that people have to understand it this is literally a long term struggle right if you're talking about you know fine to the civil rights movement and you talk about a 10 to 15 year delay i mean where are we now with black lives matter it was 2013 the movement was founded 7 years old are we going to have to wait another 1010 years to to see any kind of genuine reform if i was thinking about this politically for the purpose of strategizing i wouldn't say we have to wait but i'd say we have

to fight at least that long this is a this is literally a long term struggle it doesn't mean oh my god we're fighting now and then our change will happen 15 years but you have to actually develop kind of a long term mind my set and think about our scale differently we have to think about our time scale very differently than what i think some people think about thank you very much really interesting to get your thoughts on this lester spence professor from johns hopkins university. so it's day one of the republican national convention now underway in charlotte north carolina it's also taking place online of the next 4 days republicans will look to energize that base and formalize party policy ahead of the november presidential election u.s. president donald trump and vice president might pence have officially been

nominated as the party's 2020 candidates convention is crucial as trump seeks to reverse his slump in opinion polls during a surprise appearance he told supporters that he was confident that he would secure a 2nd term and again question the use of maiden ballots. if you want to really drive them crazy you say 124 years. we caught them doing some really bad thing. in 2016 let's see what happens we caught them doing some really bad things we have to be very careful because they're trying it again with this whole 80000000 mail in ballots at their work you know. sending them out to people that didn't ask for that in this they just gave them and it's not fair and it's not right so as a convention got under way one of president trumps most loyal a announced she's leaving kellyanne conway was his campaign manager in 2016 and

stayed on as a senior counselor in a statement she praised president trump and said she's decided to quit 3 months before his reelection bid to focus on her family her husband george conway a prominent republican and vocal trump critic is also stepping back from his political activism so our course when it can we help it joins us live now what can we expect from the convention in the coming hours. what's going to look a lot different than what we saw last week the democratic national convention which was largely virtual this is going to be kind of a pared down in person convention as you mentioned in charlotte north carolina the u.s. president already appearing at least once but we're hearing that he could appear from here in the white house and have that streamed into the convention not once but maybe even twice in the coming hours so it's going to be a heavy presence of donald trump trump all of the time if you will probably throughout the week now the message that the campaign says it's going to send is

one of hope in terms of the renewal of the american dream what does that mean it means bringing back jobs which sounds a lot like 2016 but the campaign saying that that was a radical added by covert 19 but donald trump is the one to bring it back expect that also there will be fear tactics employed that the picture of a biden presidency will be painted as particularly grim one with high crime a raise in taxes the president expected to offer an alternative economic platform. things got off to a rough start for trump this convention. yeah it's been a bit of a almost a week of setbacks for this president but you know this is in many ways not unusual for the reality t.v. star president his presidency has really been sort of overcome in many cases by drama so the start of this republican national convention really no different you

mentioned the departure of one of his most loyal aides just a few days ago one of his former chief strategist was indicted on financial crimes then we also have just today members of the president's own republican party 4 members of congress coming out supporting joe biden donald trump's rival and then on top of it you have in just the last 24 hours or so the u.s. president's own sister labeling him as a liar and an opportunist so these are some of the challenges that donald trump has to overcome and again as we mentioned he is likely to be appearing not once but twice in the coming hours to try and send the message that is largely geared to appealing to his base so critical if he is to pull off another victory thank you very much i want house correspondent kimberly how. well among the speakers the republican convention on tuesday will be mike. it's unusual for a sitting secretary of state to take part in

a political event plus he'll be speaking from israel where he's promoting the u.s. brokered deal between israel and the united arab emirates. i want to come here today in part to congratulate the prime minister will travel to the emirates to meet with them and congratulate them to what's taken place here is deeply consistent with what president trump set out to do create a more stable more prosperous middle east this is a really good step in that direction canonic relationship between the emirates opportunities for innovation and science travel between these 2 places will now be open and that's important that's important to create between israel and this arab state this opportunity in all the developments the u.s. postmaster general has called on voters to request them mail in ballots early to ensure that they get counted in november's election though is to joyce testifying before a house committee he says delays in mail in votes will be caused by the high volume of postal ballots which are expected to spike to record levels this election not by

the changes made within the service itself president donald trump is look to restrict made in voting saying it could impact the legitimacy of november's election but he's voted by mail himself in the recent primary in florida well joining the hearing there was a tense exchange with democrat congressman jim cooper do your mail delays fit trumps campaign goal of hurting the post office as stated in his tweets are your main onlies i'm not close it can 9 constitution these types of question i'm here i'm here to represent the postal service has nothing to do with my actions have to do with improvement as a postal service mr joy is your backup plan to be pardoned like roger stone. at a full. you have 2 seconds to answer the question i have no comment on. now the world health organization is cautioned against the effectiveness of using convalescent blood plasma to treat coronavirus patients the u.s.

president announced foss track consent for the experimental treatment on sunday describing it as a major therapeutic breakthrough technique involves taking antibody rich plasma from recovered kovan 1000 patients and giving it to those with severe active infection but the doctor says there's only low quality evidence the method works and want a number of side effects as well while authorities in gaza have announced the 1st cases of community transmission of the virus until now all cases of the disease have been linked to quarantine facilities or residents returning from abroad a mass declared a 40 hour total lockdown of the territory to bring the outbreak under control or fears that gaza's health care system and not be able to cope if the disease becomes that widespread egypt and israel have imposed a crippling blockade on the territory. well the 1st case of someone being reinfected with the corona virus has been reported by researches in hong kong 33 year old man has tested positive for covert 1000 for the 2nd time 4 and

a half months after recovering from the disease the re-infection was discovered when he returned from a trip to spain the findings by hong kong university could have significant implications for the development of vaccines and then the former chief of self for the for the president of the democratic republic of congo has been hospitalized with corona virus which party said he was moved to hospital from prison after experiencing breathing difficulties doctors described his health is stable but they've also said that you'll need several days of treatment to recover kamar he was sentenced to 20 years in jail early this year on fraud charges supporters have denounced the imprisonment as politically motivated. that's not small still ahead for you the syrian government blames so-called terrorists for a pipeline explosion that knocked out power across the country. citizenship for sale and al-jazeera investigation reveals how dozens of see any officials and

for more lightning storms that could supercharge wildfires already burning across the state at least 7 people have been killed hundreds of wildfires include california's 2nd and 3rd largest ever around 240000 people have been placed under mandatory evacuation orders or warnings since lightning strikes triggered the fires a week ago. reports now from the. packing up and getting out richard camacho of sonoma county is part of a mass exodus of northern california residents fleeing raging wildfires are living in weird times. this i mean 5 years back it was no fires every year and now it seems like every year's record record fires every year the fires of august are among the largest ever recorded in the state with an 800 homes are reported destroyed with $25000.00 more structures at risk more than $40000.00 hectares of

land have been scorched the l n u lightning complex fire stretching across 5 counties is now 20 percent contained according to the california fire agency cal fire it like 2 dozen major fires in the state was started by lightning strikes from dry thunderstorms the fire concentration the challenge that we're facing here in the state is now disproportionally impacting northern california and that is because of close to 12000 lightning strikes that we experienced over a 72 hour period lightning sparked fires ravage giant redwood trees in california as old as state park the big basin redwood state park in santa cruz county was established in 19 to now historic structures and a museum lie in ruins. more than 1700 firefighters and support crews are trying to contain the blazes many of which are burning in rugged inaccessible to rain

gulf coast tropical storms laura and marco of left major flooding in large parts of the caribbean nations without power mako has weakened but laura could develop into a category category 3 hurricane before it makes landfall in the united states on thursday hitting parts of louisiana and texas and allocates in miami and joins us now at least 11 people have already been killed by these 2 storms what do we know about the effect that it's had on the caribbean nations. well in a span year in particular the island shared by the dominican republic in haiti we are reporting or hearing of at least 11 deaths major flooding and hundreds of thousands of people without power it's important to remember that both those countries have pretty weak infrastructures and this was only a tropical storm so we are still waiting for more numbers to come out from the island of hispaniola at the moment tropical storm laura is skirting the coast of the southern coast of cuba but it's when laura makes its way off cuba and hits the

gulf of mexico and those warm waters that people are really watching now tropical storm marco is essentially falling apart as it skirts along the coast of louisiana so that is good news for the people of louisiana and texas because they were facing the prospect of 2 hurricanes within 48 hours of each other which hasn't happened in recorded history so all eyes are now on tropical storm laura which some forecasters say could potentially reach a category 2 or perhaps even a category 3 storm on wednesday or even thursday right so it's going to make landfall in the u.s. state of louisiana and in terms of the severity of the hurricane what measures and being taken preparations being made. well at the moment it depends on which model you look at some of the european models are having this potential hurricane coming in into texas but there is a wide cone of uncertainty as ever in these situations but a category 2 storm is

a powerful storm of course it brings the risk of flooding heavy rain and storm surges so it is being watched very very carefully indeed because at the moment tropical storm marco is tracking west across that coastline and then the other one will come in laura less than 48 hours later so it's the potential for a double whammy if you like of these 2 storms together that has the authorities worried that there are mandatory evacuation orders in place for some of the outlying areas of louisiana a particular places like coomber where there is a large amount of oil production but at the moment people are being told you know you can deal with a tropical storm that's now disintegrating essentially but hurricane laura is an entirely different thing if it does reach a category 3 strength that is an extremely dangerous storm and of course this entire situation is even more complex with the pandemic going on so at the moment forecasters are watching laura very carefully it's all about where it goes once it

gets into the gulf of mexico because if it keeps tracking west that means it stays in the gulf of mexico for longer and is fueled by that incredibly warm water at this time of year so that is being watched carefully people along that entire coastline now on high alert for miami and again i thank you now a story we've been reporting today at least a 100 people if you're trapped after a 5 story building collapsed in western india block of 47 apartments came down in the town of 100 south of the financial capital mumbai children are believed to be among those traps dozens of survivors have been pulled from the rubble that. well now to syria the government is blaming what it calls terrorists for a major gas explosion which left large parts of the country without power firefighters have put out a blaze on the arab gas line northeast of the capital damascus and electricity is gradually being restored the u.s. says it suspects i still was behind the explosion well the top 100 kilometer are
