9:07 pm
is an orphaned demographic unit of palestinians. the local leadership husband, decimated by the israelis. most of them put in jail. some killed some eggs on the national political leadership of the palestinians. the p l. o, the authority are pretty moribund. they have very little credibility. they're doing very little, therefore the people who just don't have, nobody's really to lead them. while at the same time, there's been a rise of groups of israeli. extreme is going through the streets saying, kill the arabs, kill the people coming to the hot shower. if the temple mount the area and then they're not coming as tourist or political sort of hit squad, they're coming, they want, they've declared the extreme of declared their intention to try. they get the arabs out of there so they can rebuild the 3rd temple. now of course, the answer all this is isn't negotiated settlement, but there's no sign of that right now. all we see are these tensions on both sides
9:08 pm
and the israeli police. going with this extreme as a militant jewish settlers onto the holy sites as a pretty bad time. but it's not news been like this for, for many years. and every time something happens on the so they had a city of tempe, mount tens of thousands of 1000 is congregate there because it is the only center of political identity and congregation and unity that they now have endorsed on. that's why they really should acknowledge their son negotiate with them for a new status quo that gives everybody their national rights and access to all their holy places. but unfortunately, that's the way down the road. now a passenger plane that was forced to divert and landon bella ruth, has now been allowed to take off. it had been carrying a prominent exiles, better russian opposition activist, and was initially flying till su wayne in nato. meanwhile, as demanding an investigation into just what happened, there's been
9:09 pm
a crackdown on descent in minsk since a disputed election last year. if you're waiting for the operation to land, that plane and hold roman protests of which appeared pre planned and even imputed military aircraft on the d. and bava is following developments forth from london surrounded him. it looks like the plane and almost made it out of bed, a rush and s, space before it was divested. what was emerging about all this? when cells here, we now have confirmation that this ryan f like from athens to vill news. the capital lithuania has now made its resumed its journey, but the details are quite incredible. the better ocean authorities have actually said that the, the, the, the diversion was ordered by president alexander lucas shanker. and yes, that's right. the plane was only about 2 minutes from leaving, but she s space and entering lithuania when it changed course and landed in minsk
9:10 pm
and from various reports, it's clear that there was some kind of security threat. it's possibly a bomb threat which, which, which was brought to the attention of the ryan a crew and they were ordered to, to land in minutes. and also better us is confirmed that the president actually ordered a fight subject to a school, the plane, to the main scale port. now the opposition and better recording this, a hijacking the, the presidency in lithuania is saying that better was clearly pre plan this operation. they say that better was knew exactly who was on board and they are demanding that to run man protests of which is now released. he's the co founder of an opposition media channel, embarrass. he had been living in lithuania since last november. he is now in

detention or the other passengers allowed to carry on with their journey, the opposition, the exiled opposition leader of belarus, spent lana says to cut off sky out the last couple of hours has reacted anger. she said that it has to be an investigation by the international civil ab ation organization, but also said that she wants to see sanctions applied on both of us and the d my c . now lithuania is calling for a joint you recommendation plains to stay out of bella, russian s. space. not surprising, given what's happened, but we've been really hearing some sharp words and reaction from around the world. that's right. various governments have been calling this a for slanting and using quite forthright language to show how displeased they are with what better is has done the president of the european commission on the lion
9:12 pm
was one of the 1st to tweet reaction. she said it is absolutely unacceptable to force around a flight from athens to vilnius, to london. minsk. she said all the passengers must be able to continue that trouble to bill miss immediately an a safety insured that seems to have happened apart from this opposition figure. she said, any violation of international air transport must bear the consequences. the prime minister of poland coded a reprehensible act of state terrorism. he said, i condemn in the strongest terms the detention of roman protests, of which by the original authorities, he's calling on the president of the european council, shall me show to raise the issue of immediate sanctions on better routes. when heads of government meet for a shed, you will get together on monday, just to remind people the situation in embarrass is a basically at
9:13 pm
a stalemate with the main opposition figures exiled with those protests that we saw last summer after the highly disputed election, which many people say was rig by lucas shanker protests which followed, dying down into the winter and with around 35000 people having been detained since last summer, according to human rights groups. nadine and d, there's plenty of reactions still coming in the un ation agency. the international civil aviation organization, even saying that they are strongly concerned about what's happened. thanks so much than a team, but right now let's be to come here in a martina. she's a research fellow at the bel russian institute for strategic studies. she joins us now from default in germany. katerina, obviously a fairly dramatic last few hours and it does sound like the order. as nadine was saying, that came from lucas shameka himself. are you surprised why, what's happened? this looks like
9:14 pm
a special operation carefully planned in advance by elevation, special services, and earlier today or mine. before lending displaying. he noticed that he was followed by someone and he managed to our tax colleague saying that i'm likely followed by special services. and again, this looks like a planned operation, yet another special operation planned by a bush and regime and the previous one. but most maybe large scale one was the detention of several opposition activists opposition figures and moscow. and there deputation to many people are now in prison as well. but at the time in russia, there was a special operation together with the russian special services. and here lucas shanker is sort of testing the, the tolerance of the new showing that he can get along with, even at the,
9:15 pm
at the background of a strange relations with the west and being under sanctions and condemnation. and his legitimate, she's not recognized by you literature, she can still make this powerful moves prosecuted his opponents, even those who manage to escape routes. you say he is pushing the envelope so to speak. it. but it really felt like after the protests that we saw on the some of the wilds, i had pretty much largely moved away from better rates than the political crisis that now given the amount of condemnation that we've already seen in response to this plain diversion. this arrest could this potentially, to more attention and, and back 5 solution go well, i would express hope that this will still bring back that the attention to bo and readers. because when the, the repression against beller ish and some of the activists are ongoing, literally every day. and literally, 2 days ago, when the political prisoner died in prison for unknown reasons and then depression,
9:16 pm
the major media research target typically truly on a daily basis and international community is turning attention elsewhere. and recently the words to talk about the new package of sanctions on behalf of the you in june. but the question was whether those sanctions would be tough enough. would they actually target some sensitive assets of lucas shank, a chronic. and this incident, again to touch ho serious the you can stand up for democracy and security as, as borders other than just condemnation rhetoric. well we know how some other countries feel about new ca shanker and how the opposition feels about him. how is he regarded now in batteries? it is hard to say because the social opinions both are harshly restricted as to any other sort of opposition or independent media or research activities. code does not have legitimacy and the brother versions. and even though we did not
9:17 pm
see this large scale protests on the streets, this is not because the practice went away. this is because, while people got tired of those after those continues protests, which lasted weeks and months. and also because in the past months, shanker scaled the, the level of progressions was unprecedented. and lucretia and can now was trying to deal with kids opponents even in the more harsh terms than you did in august. katerina sh massena, there from the bell, russian institute for strategic studies. thank you for sharing your insights with us here on out there, katerina now at least 13 people have died in northern italy after a cable call their plunge to the ground. 2 children have also been hospitalized. rescue is say, the carriage was high off the ground when it fell, the cause of the accident. no. near the summit of macaroni in the italian else has not yet been determined. the cable car itself had just reopened. as corona vice

9:19 pm
at least 8 people were kildere and thousands forced from their homes. well corresponded malcolm where visited mountain aragon go just a few years ago. he has worn out from nairobi and kenya he did indeed climb the very volcano a couple of years ago for a new story. it's just outside the city of goma, takes a few hours to walk up to the top. you can go up there when he's not there up thing you can go up there with wildlife ranges from a nearby nature reserve. and at the top there's a crater. you can peer over the edge and see this orange lava lake down below. and you can feel the heat of it as he's done there. now sometimes in the city of goma at night. if, if the weather is clear, you can see on the horizon the glowing orange, which is lava lake, which is always simmering away at once in a while it does, it does erupt has just happened. now the last figure up here was almost 20 years ago. 2002, the vast river of lava cut all the way through the city of goma,
9:20 pm
destroying ways of killing more than 200 people. and then ending up in lake keyvi. so that where the lava destroyed all those home buildings and everything else, it cooled down and its sacked and became a plane of very bubbly, spiky black rock on which people slowly and steadily rebuilt their homes. people even took picks and tittles to the volcanic rock and cut it up to make blogs or even houses in game a made from lava. what was lava volcanic rock, and now the city has grown quite steadily quite fast since then. it's next, this of the mineral trade for the region. it's certainly a place where there's quite a lot of money moving around the way. there are very few formal jobs so that draws people in from the countryside. also, other people are displaced by griggs in now, a new study in the u. k. has found vaccines to be highly effective against

9:22 pm
know what's around the corner, what's going to come out and the more pressure we put on it to evolve by don't move actually the more lightly that needs to happen. but i'm afraid that is inevitable. there's nothing we can do about that, that have been indications with things like some classic, very in all blunting of the effects, the vaccines, i should say, that the vaccines and anybody really suspect vaccines will become completely useless. but what we're talking about here is a reduction in that that potency their ability to prevent disease. that's what we're measuring. or brazil's president variable scenario has led a motion bike procession through rio de janeiro in his latest act of defiance against his critics. thousands of his supporters line the streets, ignoring advice on social distancing. both scenario has been widely accused of mishandling the current of virus pandemic, and is currently being investigated by a senate commission. pulls also show his popularity has fallen to its lowest level
