senate republicans lock a bill to investigate. and russia's president, voice has support for the ballot. russian leda as the you make plans for a new round of tongue, a sanction. ah, welcome to the program. germany is officially acknowledged for the 1st time that it carried out a genocide in the maybe a, during its colonial rule. at the turn of the 20th century, tens of thousands of people from 2 ethnic groups, herero and nama communities were killed, tortured and driven into the desert. when they rose up against colonial rules, the german government has issued a formal apology to the african nation and agreed to provide a $1000000000.00 in aid. but as andrew chappelle now reports doesn't go far enough

for the dizziness people and the victims, descendants. as their land and cattle were being taken from them, the head of people took a stand against their german colonizers at the start of the 20th century. what came next, still haunts their descendants, more than a century later. between 19041900 away, the germans tried to exterminate the nama, and had no people executing thousands and driving other tribes. people into the desert, survivors were used a slave labor and concentration camps. around a 100000 people were killed. in this genocide, germany has finally accepted responsibility in size and how it did these. we will now officially call these events what they were from today's perspective, a genocide in doing so, we also acknowledging our historical responsibility in the light of germany's historical and moral responsibility. we will ask namibia and the descendants of the

victims for forgiveness. berlin's agreed to provide $1300000000.00 in the next 3 decades in the form of development projects. some had at or call it a betrayal of their ancestors because the deal did not include a direct payment of compensation. these had nothing to do with reparation. they call it no, not to reparation, but he got reconciliation. so this is a kind of, and you know, out of, of, of development, age and development, age goes to the government. and this government of no media, as we know is a corrupt government. and this money will never reach the norma. and there are people that, especially though the dissidence of the, of these 2 nations, that's why we say no to this reconciliation, we want to reparation. we want to talk directly to the german government. half of

the number of people and 80 percent of the head were killed. much of maybe as arable land is still owned by descendants of german settlers, some could stand to benefit from the announcement as money will be allocated for land purchases and vocational training. now maybe as government says, the move is a step in the right direction. to heal, we have to learn to live with the scars, but for descendants of those who were either killed or marched into the color, he desert to starve to death. it's a wound that may never heal and are chappelle al jazeera. now around 400000 people have fled a city in the eastern part of the democratic republic of congo. after warnings of volcano could erupt again, evacuation orders have been issued for some areas in the city of goma, which lies just south of mountaineer gone guys. the volcano is one of the world's most active and iraq did on saturday. several people are reportedly killed by the flow of lava and others in accidents in the ceiling panic. but then that followed

the molten rock destroy several villages and thousands of homes. but it stopped short of the city of goma, which is home to nearly 2000000 people. i'll just aries, malcolm. i was at the guerrero reception camp in neighboring rwanda, which is now hosting people who've escaped from goma. there was panic when the evacuation order came to say b, u. c. k, tema, was badly burned when a cooking pot was not over. he needs medical attention, but there isn't any available. he had this reception center. in rwanda, people fled over the border from the city of gamer. to come here to be really i've already spent the night sleeping under this head. they say it's cold. several of the people that are going to hear their homes and everything they was destroyed in the initial reaction. nearly a week ago when lava came cussing out the side of the volcano,

they were waiting in the city of goma for help that the government and promised, but it didn't come and they wanted to evacuate that. so now they hear. many of them say they're hungry and they need help. but to get to another, let me come. we had people screaming, you're going to die and wondered what was going on. that's when we salmone near a gun, go up to the hot lava, came down. all residents on the left with nothing and the lover destroyed everything in its path. some help has arrived un and the red cross brought these parcels of food and blankets, which is prepared to distribute the people keep arriving to registering at this desk. the whole line new arrivals waiting. everyone is sitting on the floor around here as arrived within the last few hours. when the worst thing is the uncertainty people here really one a need to be in their home. but they have no idea if or when it will be safe to go back to them. the united nations refugee agency is express concern about the crisis

and if you're a prisoner then to gray reach and there are reports, hundreds of refugees have been taken from displacement comes by soldiers and rights groups say the warring sides have destroyed schools which are now being used as military bases, charles stratford reports, computers smashed equipment stolen, a place of learning, destroyed. this is just one of many schools which according to a report by human rights watch, has been damaged by both government and opposition forces during fighting. in the t gray region of northern ethiopia. the organization accuses government troops of using a high school as a military base. a key part of this is obviously going to be ensuring accountability for the abuses which these communities have seen happen. as i said, there is a real fear of returning to school because forces that have abused and have destroyed

the schools often around fighting beginning t gray 6 months ago. that's when the open government, backed by its ally era, troyer launched a military operation accusing the t great people's liberation front of attacking its federal military bases in the north and the stabilizing. the country us has been a strong ally of yoke his government for years. but he's growing frustrated with a scale of to fighting and widespread reports of sexual violence. the senate foreign relations committee was told on thursday that an estimated 2000000 people that being forced to flee their homes and 5200000 people are an urgent need of assistance. the united states condemns in the strongest terms, the brutal killings, sexual violence, including gang rape, forced removals want destruction of civilian property. us president joe biden has called for an immediate cease fire. the senate has unanimously called for the withdrawal of ethiopian troops and secretary of state anthony blinking says,

what is happening amounts to ethnic cleansing? if yoga has been warned to the faces, strong economic sanctions with the fighting continues, but it has dismissed us interference in its internal affairs. the red cross which is supplying food to around 40 villages in the north is farming essentially like seeds and fertilizer are running low. are where the situation has hurt us a lot and we all left our homes with nothing. and our children have been exposed to different diseases. there is no school. all the children and women are hiding in the mountains. the united nation says people in t gray, a facing famine. if the fighting doesn't stop, shall stratford 0 ah . in the united states, senators from the republican party have blocked the creation of an independent

commission to investigate january is attack on capitol hill by supporters of the former president. donald trump, that sounds beat white house correspondent, kimberly how kit and kimberly there was definitely support for this investigation. tell us more about why it was blocks. yeah, there was actually bipartisan support for this investigation. there were 6 republicans who voted with democrats in favor of having a bipartisan commission to look into the events of january 6 when of course there were the riots on the capital. after so many americans would not accept the results of the election and tried to prevent the certification of the final result. but it needed 60 vote to pass this legislation and there weren't 60 democrats plus republicans in order for that to happen. so this legislation is effectively dead for now, and that has really frustrated majority of democrats who believe that there was

a need to not only investigate this, but to put together a bipartisan report that would be presented to congress. and to the white house, an official narrative if you will, of what happened. in fact, how speaker nancy pelosi, reacting to this is called the republican cowards. rejecting the truth of that dark day that would make our capital and our country less safe. and here's what the top democrat in the us senate, chuck schumer also had to say. the republican minority just mounted a partisan filibuster against an independent commission to report on january 6th. both both effort should have moved forward and solidly bipartisan way, but out of fear or fealty to donald trump. the republican minority just prevented the american people from getting the full truth about january 6th. the sense in washington is that donald trump may no longer be the us president, but he still has very much a powerful grip on the republican party. and as

a result, the cautionary messages from both the former president and the other republicans that if this were to move forward, it could hurt their chances of reelection in the congressional elections coming up, that this would certainly be a problem. so that's one of the reasons for the pushback, but in terms of investigation, those investigations will continue, at least in the house of representatives. there are committees looking into the various events that occurred on january 6. but the problem is these are democrat control committees. and the difference in this was that this legislation would have created the bi partisan investigation. so those hopes of having both democrats and republicans look into the events have been dashed, but still there are criminal proceedings. and again, those committee level proceedings headed by democrats, the problem is many may dismiss those as being partisan narratives. and so that's why there was a desire for something more. thank you very much. kimberly, how can i white house correspondent?

thank you. kimberly, without is there a life from london much more fill out on the program and then continue call. urgent . police are full officer, nonsense, deadly protest across colombia at story and also the hong kong media type. jimmy ly is back in court where he's handed another 14 month prison. his role in anti government protest. ah, hello, we got some lovely spells of warm sunshine developing across western parts. if you're that's something i'm not been able to say for quite some time. but with high pressure now in charge, so it can get as we go through the next couple of days, we have cuts in wet weather for the race. were they? so whether fronts bringing some heavy down pools into ukraine to western positive pressure all way down towards the black sea, russia showers just around the boat, 6 days pushing across poland into germany. germany will dry up,

an unexpected creative opportunity. a singing contest like no other offers the chance of redemption and hope for the prison lies inside and out a tailor fingers and murders on alger there. ah ah, welcome back. a look at the main stories now. germany is officially admitted and apologized for its role in genocide in namibia. around 75000 people were killed by

german soldiers in 4 years, up to 19 o 8. following a revolt against the seizure on their land. around 400000 people have now fled to city and the eastern part of the democratic republic of congo, off the warnings of okay, no, no. rom, again, evacuation orders have been issued for parts of my sounds of mountain near are gone, gone. and us senate republicans have blocked by oxen commission into the capital riot. my support is the president donald trump plan short have the 16 votes required to pass it with 35, no votes or from the former president's party. i get some news that such as coming in with reports. it has been a breakthrough that could potentially and the political deadlock that's been unfolding and israel high force it is falling his story. forrest, he is in western some hurry was you hearing? yes, this is news that doesn't mean the end of benjamin netanyahu as prime minister ship,

but it could be a significant step in that direction. if these reports are true, now there is one report on channel 12 in israel saying that a deal has been signed a significant deal between 2 major parties in this calculation. and other report saying that a deal is close. now the 2 main players involved here, the leader of the opposition, the iowa paid, who is the leader of the main centrist. yes, our party i do has the mandate from the president to try to form a government given that you know who's failure to do so straight off of the last election. the other person involved is natalie bennett, who leads a right wing party further to the right. indeed of benjamin netanyahu, who has been said something really between making a change governments so called one which would embrace a very wide cross section of israeli politics in separate parties. coming together into a coalition and forming a right wing government with benjamin that now there was signs during the recent

war with, with us in gaza. that bennett had given up on the idea of a change government. he said that was off the table for now. and that he was looking to try to form a government with yahoo, that was a pretty furious message from the yahoo online on his twitter account earlier on friday in which he accused lucky to reversing himself and running towards the left wing. and so this one report at least has him signing that agreement. now this is an agreement that would require a broad range of coalition policies getting together from the pretty far left listed in the israeli terms. when i read the party up until the pretty far right, which is natalie bennett's own party, there are some within his own party who have expressed concerns about working with the left natalie bennett, whose health has expressed concern about requiring supplies from palestinian israeli parties because they only get to 58 of the 61 required seats of all the

members of this possible coalition come together. they would require support from outside, most likely from either the joint list or the united arab list, which are largely palestinian israeli parties. so lots of questions still to be answered, even if this report is accurate. but if it is that it is another severe blow at least to benjamin netanyahu prospects, thanking her now for master's hurry for sabrina. the latest on that story. or want to move to some of the developments friday. prayers have been held without incident at the lock, some mosque and occupied east jerusalem. one of the flesh points of recent violence around $40000.00 palestinians, arrived for worship. but the compound one of the holiest sites in islam in stark contrast to the violent scenes a week ago off to the seas 5 between israel and armed palestinian groups was agreed but north of jerusalem and the occupied westbank have been confrontations between palestinian protest, isn't israeli forces demonstrates is demonstrated gathered near the village of beta,

just outside nobliss to protest against new settlements that israeli forces fight tear gas to disperse them. rushes president is dismiss the international outrage over the diversion of a ryan and jet about a roof where it dissident journalist and his girlfriend was seized at a meeting with a better russian native. let him a pewter note if they've been little reaction when a playing kind bolivia present was forced to land in the west 8 years ago. or a challenge has this reports. look if there's a message that these leaders want to give here. it's that russia has got alexander lucas shank is back in the southern russian city of salty, bloody may, gave his support to the bearer, received president's account to the plain incident that has so outraged the west does not relo ship, but you have always so ill wishes you know about them, i will inform you in the light of our trust based relations. i've bought some documents. i will show you them to understand better the situation. some i looked

there was a time when they landed the plane of the oblivion. president school to the president of the plane and nothing just silence. whatever these men really think of each other. russia needs that a ruth as a loyal buffer to the west. and lucas shanker would like the already be consigned to the history books without kremlin aid. in the hague, the women in 10 tone replacing him this after last year's disputed presidential elections. he, you leaders consider fedloan at he cannot scout bella ruth, his leader in exile. she's trying to make the most of the current anger with lucas shanker joins involvement of when you conference will do more powerful. and of course government, i'm sure they will put as much effort as necessary to start the investigation on the case about flight and recognizing the regime as to risk on sunday. a ryan their flight from greece, lithuania, over passing battle, reaching the space with forced to land in midst with a fake bomb threats about

a roofing opposition. journalist and his girlfriend were taken off the plane and arrested the incident to certainly change the tone. you politicians have called it a hijacking. we will make sure that the pressure is maintained and that we hit them hardest where we can hit them, which is, course in their stature and extending their wallets. everything while europe's need is draw up, sanctions rushes, ation or authorities, a warning that russia routed planes avoiding better routine space can explain delays are still the know with these days they gauge specific cases or is that gender norm from the russians authorities? you know, that will make the planes of a flight most western don't know. lucas shanker has long been adapted courting the west and russia to his best advantage. but after the ryan, a incident,

any remaining patients with a man, the e. u. c's as europe's last dictator has disappeared. he only has russia now will reach helen's era and protest as a due to march in cities across colombia to mark a month of anti government demonstrations and demanding police reform. after at least 17 people died in the security crack down on the protests. but people are saying that the actual figure is probably much higher than that. so let's get more for allison drum piazza joined us now from ball guitar. and of course, protested, determined to have that voices heard and really a sense of defiance, despite the recent violence and crack down the me. absolutely marian. that's what everybody will tell you. who are out once again on the streets here in the capital of a number of cities across for long. yes. by that that,

that we've seen in the protests in the last 30 days, the injury part of the police, but also part of some of the protesters. there's no doubt that the country is trying to get tired of out. they protest, however, the people that are out in the board again say that they want to continue, that they're not satisfied with the victories that the professors have achieved so far, the withdrawing to reform the fact for, for my health reform in the country, they're saying that they want more, they went structural changes in the country and they're out today to celebrate the 1st month of the really unprecedented demonstrations that at the date here is the capital. but the vents are mostly cultural. there are concerts that are being set up other cultural events throughout the day. and so far everything has

been absolutely peaceful. unfortunately, that hasn't been the case. once again in cali, columbia, 3rd city where we're just getting reports that few people might have died in clashes in that city. we're still trying to understand better, but at least one point professors, it looks like has been shown. right. and so how is something like likely to impact negotiations between the government and project leaders? right now they are solve the government and the one the people that are

in formal negotiations. they want all the roadblocks that have created created issues in many parts of the country. need to be less expensive, where the problem stands right now to form a go see a since we understand that a re agreement has been reached. that hasn't been by, by the government because they feel that they're appropriate leaders that are not ready to come. then the road block, then the effects that they have have on the country is beth calling on me. and that of also create some of the tension between civilians who are processing and those do, i don't believe this is the best way to continue the process that the government and that purposely will be again on sunday through friday. thank you. out of syndrome yet. you will become hong kong media tie. can jimmy lie has been given
