of earth day on al-jazeera. play an important role protecting you when ringback. this is al-jazeera my. oh the i'm out of my head in this is the news live from doha coming up in the next 60 minutes in all reports of a rare it's hank in the end mark of an alliance of ethnic rebels targeting police. anger on the streets of belfast once again about the issues surrounding his new case exit from the european union the united kingdom almost always prince philip of

the force the one gun salutes across the country if you could that ever died on friday at the age of $99.00. and no cinemas no worries indonesia's film industry turns its attention online to make up an demick comeback. hello i'm satisfied with sports including golf action from the mouth of england's justin rose remains the man to catch a bust up but his lead is now down to just one. but we begin this news hour in myanmar where there are reports that at least 10 police officers in the eastern shan states have been killed by an alliance of ethnic rebel groups a police station in nonmoving was attacked early in the morning by fighters who oppose the military coup and the crackdown on protesters.

who are also getting reports of at least 60 people being killed in a raid on friday in that sort of boats 100 kilometers northeast of the commercial capital john gone the military is imposed a series of restrictions on the internet which is making it harder to confirm these incidents of violence and the military is you know she joins and has sentence 19 people to death and they're accused to. killing an associate of an army captain it's the 1st time death sentences have been announced in myanmar since the military seized power. and the humanitarian crisis is continuing to unfold in areas bordering myanmar and thailand fascism is a people have recently fled from airstrikes in korean states wednesday fighting was reported between the army and fighters from the current national liberation army who has opposing the joined. live no tony chang who's monitoring news

developments in myanmar from bangkok in the neighboring thailand toward it let's just start with the violence on the ground obviously very difficult for us to confirm as we can't get into the country itself but given what you're seeing coming out of the country i mean how close is it looking that no one is heading towards civil war at this stage. well it's a very difficult question mema has been riven with these sort of ethnic struggles for decades some of the longest civil wars in recent history have been so what battles were have been inside myanmar dating back to as long as the end of the 2nd world war but if you look at today just a little window on what's happening you mentioned the attack in shan state now this is very interesting because since the military coup there's been a lot of talk about ethnic armed groups operating together but we haven't actually seen it before this so they claimed that 3 act together join forces attacked this

outpost of the miramar police killing a number of policemen again very difficult to confirm but it seems to have been fairly devastating there are pictures now beginning to emerge of that attack which took place over 2 hours between 5 and 7 o'clock in the morning at the same time the security services are launching very violent crackdowns in go in the south and up in the north those are 2 very strategically important cities because they control access to the indian border on the one side and the thai border on the east and that presumably is because they are preparing for the fact that these ethnic armed groups could come together could forge alliances and could be very problematic for them particularly as they're facing a very disobedient civil civil disobedience movement in the cities and the

protesters who despite the bloodshed of the recent weeks continue to go out on the streets and protest. i think for many people inside the large urban centers those who can afford it their attention is now turning towards getting outside of myanmar they're trying to book flights they're trying to look for other up opportunities to to find security outside of the country those who can't afford it and that is of course the vast majority turning in said to their ancestral homes fleeing the city is trying to get to their villages in some cases they're heading towards the border we've seen tens of thousands of people moving towards the border with thailand the thai authorities have stopped most of them coming across the border we understand many are still stuck in a sort of a hinterland between the thai border areas of burma is military control trying to seek the sanctuary of some of these armed ethnic armed groups particularly the k n u the current national union but it does look as if as many people predicted some

months ago when this military coup happened that thailand was that miramar is heading on a course towards civil war and that does seem to be the what's happening today ok tony chang there bring us up to date from bangkok in thailand tony thank you. on friday the un security council her pleas from the people of myanmar for action to stop the cracked same as an unofficial meeting of council members or diplomats can't stand james bays has this reports. the military continues its crackdown on peaceful pro-democracy protesters there also now reneging on their own promises a spokesman for the june to assess all though at the time of the coup they pledged to hold elections in a year they now will take place for to use at the u.n. in new york a meeting was held to give security council ambassadors a picture of the deteriorating situation people feel that they are let alone to use

the brutal regime armed to its feet. start from by the same international actors who preventing action the military and nord are condemnations posing a test for the security council with the council well council who are over language in yet another statement are we apt to say the lives of the birds people myanmar's u.n. ambassador who opposes the generals who called for a no fly zone unarmed symbolic 0 and targeted sanctions leave the nice take action. this meeting was organized by the u.k. all security council members were invited but it wasn't a formal security council meeting both china and russia which object to an official open meeting only sent low level diplomats not surprisingly both countries seem opposed to any sanctions on the generals we share the same concern the main thrust

of recent diplomacy has been in the region here earlier this week the indonesian foreign minister meeting her u.k. counterpart i'm told a meeting of the leaders of the 10 countries in the regional as the only group is likely in indonesia in the next 2 weeks but how do you persuade the generals to talk and to give ground the un special envoy christine sharana bergen has had her permission to visit myanmar denied i'm told there are some countries that are contemplating the idea of appeasing the generals and giving them a future role in the governance of the country something that would have poor human rights activists and those protesting on the streets james al-jazeera at the united nations. iran says it's begun testing new advanced uranium enrichment centrifuges just ahead of another round of talks in vienna president hassan rouhani made the announcement during a virtual meeting of iran's annual national nuclear technology day to her and has

been steadily moving away from the terms of the 2050 nuclear deal since the u.s. pulled out its founder donald trump other parties to the deal are trying to revive its let's get more on this knife massa big he joins us from the iranian capital tehran i said why is surrounding this. well this is a national day of nuclear chief this day came about back in 2006 when iran money in rich uranium to about 3.5 percent using made in the country now we were expecting over 130. of new achievements in relation to its nuclear program now iran is using more advanced centrifuges and feeding into them but it's also began production of the 6 centrifuges now that's important because under the 2015 nuclear deal iran is restricted to using older and less efficient centrifuges not these ones but also in a tense power plant apparently the production of the centrifuges was damaged

because of apparent sabotage last summer and iran says that they are producing this this is all in the context of those talks that took place in vienna and did yesterday continue next week on wednesday and this is just iran showing that they will continue along this line along this path of sanctions lifted and. the europeans are not living up to their commitments and iran has been pretty transparent about it they've told the international atomic agency of what they've been doing. there within the agreement to take what they see as remedial measures but the europeans and i think this is a breach the supreme leader said just 2 weeks ago that iran will continue down this path as some of the other countries don't fulfill their responsibilities but it does add that extra layer of complexity to those talks because as time goes by iran continues to take steps further away from those restrictions imposed on its nuclear program as part of that 2015 nuclear deal. thank you.

plenty more still ahead on this news hour including the great crime journalist was gunned down in athens find out what the police had to say about the attack and we'll have a report on a by the local campaign in gaza it's trying to help farmers and fisherman. us we build ups and one of the biggest games in the world football is classical it's barcelona and reality jade's all the sports coming up for you later this music. for several police officers were injured in another nights of street violence in northern ireland protesters in belfast threw petrol bombs and runs a burning car into a police vehicle despite calls for calm out of respect for the death of prince philip young approvers his loyalists have been rising every night for more than

a week angry about its post bricks at issues well from belfast andres simmons has more on the causes of the violence 2 decades after the good friday agreement for peace to northern ireland's. many had warned about the fragile peace in northern ireland being threatened by arrangements over bricks it coming back to the good friday agreement on this day it was signed 23 years ago and it is being the center point of those bricks and negotiations the end result was to avoid a hard hard border to put it across the ira see that cause chaos and trade for northern ireland it led to a whole area of dissent and then into mingled with a whole range of other issues with republicans demonstrating quite clearly their strength during a funeral exactly well nearly just exactly

a year ago the story and i are a member of a petrol i remember had died and the police did took no action with the 2000 people amongst them in fein leaders who broke coded regulations apparently now the loyalists of the unionist politicians have said point blank the police should have taken action and we have amongst this or all of this with the police under pressure a call from the 1st minister alim foster for the chief constable of northern ireland to resign which he refuses to do so you have that going on as an irritation to loyalists who are furious about that add to that the nature of the paramilitaries the loyalist paramilitaries being involved 'd in organized crime some theories suggest that they are the cause of a lot of this violence they're actually organizing it and in fact calling for a low in all of the violence because of prince philip dying that was breached on

friday night as we saw and now there is a worry that this could go on this is not going away by no means. ok well let's bring in our guests now we can speak to bridget loft in dublin she's the director of the robert schumann sensors at the european university institute creates have you with this on the news hour as we were hearing from our correspondent there the belfast agreement was signed 23 years ago today and yet the images of burning buses petrol bombs being lobbed at riot police are still coming out of northern ireland do you think that the violence we're seeing and the current text tension surrounding bracks kids threaten this landmark peace deal. yes they can and there is there is no say recipe for the island virus and from the very beginning even before the referendum it was very clear to people who understood the

dynamics of politics in northern ireland that it was a that if the pay off to the very day and now we've seen what everyone predicted who took it seriously way back that we now see this happening and it's happening because there is and in costs a big problem there once the cage left it's in the markers in the customs union it has an international border with the arn and it's a member state of the you with the main one so a border has to go somewhere and from the beginning it was realised that you can't simply couldn't police the 300 crossings of the land border and people who live on that border voted decisively against bretz and so they simply would not give their consent so then the only result to get the kind of threats that the boris johnson wanted which was a sovereign to 1st breath was that there he tore border in the irish sea having himself said that no british prime minister didn't support and this has undermined

5. the loyalist. their sense that london will take care of them it has raised issues of identity the demographics in northern ireland are shifting so the loyal loyalists immunise feel more vulnerable and this then comes on top of a lot of socio economic problems in loyalist airings so what we are seeing an unearned in today it's very dangerous well it's a dangerous situation an impossible problem to solve in the context that you just start lines but it is quite clear that you pointed out that in this situation it's the loyalists in the northern ireland's who appeared to have a problem with the governments in the u.k. so do you think that and sems of any solution any move forwards or does the ball lie in the the u.k. government's courts just boris johnson and his government really need to step up

here. and not just and it's not just a problem for the government i think london dublin brussels and i would also say washington needs to look carefully at the protocol the dramatize and the checks if necessary some of those checks should happen in fact before breaking the pay to in northern ireland and now the e.u. see all of the computer in the computer systems and data systems on what is what is crossing and then deep dramatise everything but that's still it doesn't solve the political problem which is there must be a border and the one thing about the seat is people don't live on the sea where is a land border in my view is completely impossible so the protocol will have to survive but if they really and i don't just mean london but everyone involved with power and authority need to make sure that each is streamlined to the extent possible that it is minimized to the extent possible but there still remain

a problem for loyalism at a time as i already said all significant democrat demographic shift in northern ireland and the group in northern ireland that need the right then to fight as long as unionist or nash and those are the group that will determine whether or not northern ireland stays long term in the united kingdom well that's an interesting plank back at you so i'm sorry to cut and could i could i add to ask you a by. where where does the future line here do you think that the territories move in closer to a pool an irish reunification. i think the bracks it has completely disturbed territory in politics in the united kingdom including in northern ireland and in my view issues that i thought would never be on the table like irish in the kitchen in my lifetime now are but that doesn't mean we're anywhere close to that outcome

because in my view we should learn from bracks and that if you have a referendum that's highly divisive on and not properly planned without any sense of what will happen afterwards it would be very bad for the island of ireland so we need to begin the discussion as the government government now wants on what a shared island means not the constitutional issue but how do we how do we all live on this island that we share in a way that we don't see the scenes that we saw on belfast last night ok great to get your thoughts we could continue this discussion for many hours days and weeks it seems unfortunately we're out of time on the news our but brigid lafon joining us from dublin thank you very much indeed for sharing your views and your perspective thank you. prince philip his being owners with a $41.00 gun salutes at several locations across the u.k. . versus naval ships around the world will also take parts to honor his

legacy as a combat veteran chris voss husband was at his side for more than 70 years he died on friday at the age of 99 old brennan reports. the official notice of prince philip's death was posted at the gates of buckingham palace the prince who died peacefully on friday morning at windsor castle concluded the royal family joined with people around the world in mourning his loss the prime minister was among the 1st to pay tribute to prince philip on the affection of generations here in the united kingdom across the commonwealth. and around the world like the expert carriage driver that he was he helped to steer the royal family and the monarchy so the remains an institution indisputably vital to the balance and happiness of our national life the duke of edinburgh witnessed 1st hand

as britain's global empire was replaced in the 20th century by the current commonwealth of nations and now statements of condolence have come from across the continent he was a heck of a guy. you know. his life tourists were seen in kenya come through a. visible everybody pro-forma. india's narendra modi praise the princes distinguished career in the military and his many community service initiatives. and the zimbabwean president. sent his deepest condolences prince philip will be remembered as a champion for young people a decorated naval officer a dedicated philanthropist and a constant in the life of queen elizabeth the 2nd. after more than 70 years at the queen side prince philip was the longest serving broiled consulate in british history from the moment they got married he support the queen he was one step behind and this was a man who could have had an absolutely stellar career in the navy gave up the job

and support the queen for the next more than 70 years in the streets of the british capital the news of his death was greeted with genuine sadness and respect the queen had been married for a bit 70 is even cease existing really sad my man you know we know he'd been you know file a long time money history to. the prince's body will lie in rest at the roll residence windsor castle the funeral service will also be healthy in st george's chapel in accordance with the prince's wishes it will not be a state funeral with a military procession but a much more private and intimate occasion a fitting ceremony for a man who spent so many years in a supporting role largely avoiding the limelight and attention that the british royals attract. al-jazeera. well as head live now it's a buckingham palace where we can join. the u.k. can't we should really forget the u.k. is still under these cool that restrictions that. people are still quite keen sapir

their respects to the royal family. yeah buckingham palace has asked people not to come down to the royal palaces and leave flowers but that is a request that has been in vain slightly there has been a steady stream of people to buckingham palace and the other palaces around the country doing just that coming and leaving flowers and standing for a moment before going back to where they came from we understand that in about 40 minutes time 11 o'clock g.m.t. there will be a gun salute around the country in london edinburgh belfast and cardiff and at 2 warships see as well h u s diamond and h.m.s. montrose each of the gun batteries will fire one round every minutes for 41 minutes it is

a similar salute that was given to queen victoria in 91 when she died and winston churchill as well in 1965 when he died unlike those states people though as paul mentioned in his report according to the prince's wishes there will be no state funeral for the duke of edinburgh and also as we understand the funeral arrangements in general will be much much more limited than how they had been planned for before coverts we understand that the queen is considering exactly what the funeral arrangements will be but under law at the moment you cannot have a funeral of more than 30 people so things will be i think much more muted much more info in intimates essentially just a family affair. chalons their lives from london marie thank you.

a prominent screen journalist has been shot dead outside his home in athens york a skier i was a tax points in gunman on a motorbike he was one of the country's best known crime reporters police say the murder was a professional hit its johnson office has more now from athens. police haven't said anything officially yet about the murder but local reports which are gleaned from things that the police have said on officially report that at least 2 men approached the crime reporter your skydivers as he parked his car and walks to his house in the southern suburbs of athens 2 men emptied a magazine into him from an automatic weapon police are said to have found at least 16 bullet casings at the crime scene and believe that 5 or 6 of those bullets hit the victim causing instantaneous death your scrivens had just been. on

in a major network talking about his beach the police beat and he had clocked off work and had gone home so it is highly likely that the perpetrators had watched him live and then expected him at that time to be arriving at the house it's not known whether. it was investigating any sensitive stories that night of disturbed organized criminals or other people who would have wanted him removed it's not known also whether he had received death threats or had asked for any police protection and such crimes really are very rare in greece the last such match your style killing of a journalist was in 20 turn when another reporter about his goal us was summoned to the entrance of the building where he lived. and still to come on out

this is al jazeera quick rise or over our top stories this hour there are reports from myanmar that at least 10 police officers in the eastern shan state killed by the lines of ethnic rebel groups police station in it now known was attacked by fighters who posed a military coup in. iran says it's begun using new advanced of radium enrichment centrifuges just ahead of another round of talks in vienna president hassan rouhani made the announcement during a virtual ceremony to mark its international nuclear technology day. people in the u.k. have been paved tribute to prince philip who died on friday at the age of $99.00 in

the service and the rest of the whole family are in mourning and the next hour philip for beyond it with gun salutes in the cations forced the u.k. . and workers at an amazon warehouse in alabama have voted against forming the company's 1st union in the united states it's a setback for the u.s. labor movements but activists say the fights isn't over ashi have a chance it reports this was a blowout by a more than $2.00 to $1.00 margin employees at this amazon warehouse in bessemer alabama voted against joining a union the campaign to unionize had been seen as a potential turning point in labor relations in the u.s. is on is the nation's 2nd largest employer none of its workers are unionized but it's not over yet the retail wholesale department store union so that will challenge the results. the results demonstrate the powerful impact of

employer intimidation and interference we will be calling got the labor board to hold amazon accounts of all sorts of great just say hey if you're going to care paying the union says amazon unduly pressured workers to vote no creating an atmosphere of fear from organizing mandatory lectures for workers that argued against united nations to having managers encourage workers to vote in front of them and employing an agency to monitor workers social media posts amazon also asked the u.s. postal service to install a mailbox outside the warehouse even though the national labor relations board the government agency overseeing the election has said it did not want voting on the amazon site in case it suggested amazon was directly involved in collecting the votes if the n.l.r.b. accept the union's complaints the election could be rerun or the results could even be overturned and the union certified how about amazon has dismissed any concerns

in a statement it says it's easy to predict the union will say that amazon won this election because we intimidated employees but that's not true amazon didn't women our employees made the choice to vote against joining a union long time observers of labor relations in the usa the r.w.d. s u is partly to blame for the results. this is the birth of this huge national movement solidarity extremism where we so sweetly chicago got on a well strike what went wrong was they didn't build enough support. and so they tried to rush this and so now i think what we have to do is build a new movement of amazon workers nationwide co-incident long term labor advocates argue that the history of union organizing in the u.s. has always been a gradual process facing as it does such powerful opposition the r.w. d.s.u. says it's received over a 1000 and priories from amazon workers across the country about uniting since the . we got a bite for our right if he let me not wrote that in addition there is no renewed

focus on a union rights bill that's already passed the house of representatives in washington there would make some of alleged digs during this election illegal times the outer 0 all the stay with this they can bring in technology as a system ethicists know and gets he joins us from escaping in the netherlands he's a professor at the university of 20 good to have you with us on the knees are is a fascinating story this because you hear the reason there are reports coming from employees of amazon and people collapsing on sheriff people relieving themselves and bottles rather than take a toilet break given these claims why on earth do you think amazon workers with notes once the union fights in their corner yeah i think that's an excellent question and i think it's important to think about this not as a personal choice so it's presented often as as

a vote so it is up to the individual but in reality if you're living in a socio economics conditions where you need to work to live then the risk of losing your job if the vote doesn't go the right way or if it's identified that you voted against the company's interests then it's really not a personal choice anymore and so you think this is. a special case in the united states self because the country is very resistant see organized labor there's very much a cultural pushback against this kind of thing is this a us specific case or perhaps more of a global issue because the workplace is changing contracts are changing labor laws are changing and the way that people work night was very very different see the way people earn their paycheck 50 or 60 years ago when unions were very much at the forefront. yeah i think it's important that like taxes union

dues are often seen more as a personal burden in the united states than they are as a social good i think this is true in the united kingdom as well and i think this is why it's important again that this has to be thought of not only on an individual level but on a social political level that way and we need to have a culture of not just thinking of you know money as a personal burden or benefit but really as something that contributes to social welfare so that again if you are paying your taxes if you're paying union dues even if the benefits are not immediately obvious to you it's still understood that this is better than the alternative i'm just having a few extra dollars in your pocket. do you think unions a perhaps becoming obsolete worldwide because certainly amazon would argue that they say that they're paying the $15.00 minimum wage that many companies in the

u.s. don't state pay mexico insurance that other companies don't so there's no need for a union is it perhaps something case that unions are needed anymore and they aren't as effective as as they were in years gone by. yeah i think it's important also to think about the idea that working conditions shouldn't be thought of as simply a trade off with your paycheck so the conditions at work you know there are accepting back breaking work because again you're in a condition where if you don't work you die that doesn't mean that just because you get paid a little bit more than the average that acceptable trade off so again it has to be not just about how much money you make but how the conditions actually treat you as a human being and again the figure of it quantitatively again shows how little human it is actually treated like a human being and more just like someone who will 'd be probably replaced by robots

. ok i'm going to get your thoughts there thank you so much for sharing as a year and allison's with us that's technology ethicists got it right this time no one gets there joining us from and skiddy in the netherlands thank you. chinese regularly says the find the ali baba group nearly $3000000000.00 for violating ansi monopoly rules the world's biggest economies platform has been penalized for reportedly abusing its dominant market position only bob a billionaire founder jack ma has been under scrutiny from chinese authorities after he criticized the country's regulator the system. the vaccine supplies in johnson and johnson those sets a promise 5 in the u.s. by some 86 percent the new york times reports supplies will be limited until
