that we've seen this sort of rapidly deteriorating security situation here in haiti . again, a short answer is impunity. police forces here in the country here, at least in the haitian capital, are overwhelmed. they're under resource. and oftentimes they're corrupt, so game violence, it's not a recent issue here in haiti, but the, these levels of violence, the levels of criminal activity have spike since the assassination of president of movies in this past july. and this term for between the gangs has led to arise and several other types of crime, including kidnapping crimes like extortion. and what many people here say is that not only has it been near impossible, near impossible tags for authorities to get the security situation under control, the police themselves are part of the problem with the latest from the haitian capital or porter prince manual. i know you'll be following old development for us for the moment. thank you. flooding and land slides over the past 3 days have

a typical year, alvaro could expect to harvest more than 13 tons of the islands, much prized bananas. but the erupt means the fate of this season's harvest is uncertain. is my last, i don't know if it, but those kind of effects everything because of their, when it's everywhere. you said these reduce production and income. we are washing their bananas with water. i'm below where the net is extra work yet in the end we get practically nothing. when we try to sell them, it looks like their banners have been funded down inside the same tasty. but on the outside to the eye, it doesn't sell that the lava has destroyed more than a 133 heck tiers of banana farms. scientists warned the erupt could continue for several months. but say a lesson may be drawn from the islands history to the plantation. here we're constructive or what blended be because the transport saw it from other c, d,

from other places. and they put this on the lava flows on isolated options. so probably the future will, they will do the same. i mean, they will transport thousands of cubic meters and they covered a lot of flow, so they will, they will have new plantations. i mean the, the only way to recover once the lava has cooled, there is a chance that some of the land may be reclaimed in the coming months and years. but for the farmers, all they can do is wait for the option to end. while they hope that the help provided by the government is enough to see them through the year. the bananas are the engine of the economy on the canary islands accounting for 30 percent of jobs. the spanish government has designated more than $16000000.00 in financial aid to help farmers recover. local officials say the government should do more. they are you looking to see where the dental shanina, the 14000000 euros of a to been provided to the community is

a remote fjord, amid the wonder of the arctic. there's a jaw dropping sight. the remains of an old army base called blue east to that's been slowly rusting away for decades. during the cold war, american commanders ordered that military bases should be built across greenland. in fact, more than 50 were built. now any one remains in the rest, like this one was simply abandoned. amongst it all more than $200000.00 fuel drums, many were full when they were left, leaching out their toxic contents. the base was actually constructed in the 2nd world war. we continued operation into a time when the soviet union and the united states were standing toe to toe when it was eventually decommissioned, the abandonment was total. this is really quite shocking. you've got to remember that this is in the heart of this pristine wilderness. what is a, a wonderful environment, and yet all of this it's just effectively been dumped here. and if you think this

is bad, there's a lot worse on the other side of greenland. for a huge u. s. bass was built into the ice cap and that one was powered by nuclear reactor. the united states army has established an unprecedented nuclear powered arctic research center. the construction of camp said tree started in 959 and was completed inside 2 years. officially a research station, it's really was to launch nuclear missiles against the soviet union in the event of war. but it soon became obvious that shifting greenland ice sheet made the site dangerously unstable and it was abandoned in 1967. what we can tell from our eyes penetrating radar survey is the sort of magnitude and spatial distribution of the debris. and we can see, you know, how the tunnels have closed and they've, you know, smushed completely closed. they have no more air space in them. the sites nuclear

reactor was removed, but unknown quantities of radioactive waste plus 200000 liters of diesel were left under the assumption they would be buried forever. but now because of climate change, they could be exposed to the environment possibly within 80 years. so it has to be continually monitored the rate of warming that the green the nation is facing today is pretty unprecedented in the last 12000 years. just how fast is warming and how fast the i sheet is retreating. so camp centuries now, experiencing more mel than it has in the past. denmark is now funding a $29000000.00 cleanup of u. s. military installations in greenland for blue east to well now there are plans to turn is rusting legacy of the past into a tourist attraction, a contrast to the regular guide, but green and to say the least. nicholas al jazeera, it could take greenland and you can watch ne clark's fall planet as. so s a

game consoles and other hardware. a facebook is dreaming of a web of met her versus interacting perfectly with those created by other tech companies as such as google, apple, and games create hers. i think that this is based on a very long mud, a dream or a dream that has happened already a lot, even in science fiction, literature and movies actually having this online space that is the cyberspace where people can do exactly the same activities as we can in the offline world. now imagine the metaphors as an amplification of such environments where you can have new payment mechanisms. you can have new types of digital content and basically new consumer products. i think it's germany, france, and ireland that would immediately benefit from different organizations that would be built by facebook and then attracting tens of thousands of employees. the idea is by really creating these products in the european sphere. we could look at how

europeans consumer protection and it's very high standards are going to impact the development of policies for the new worlds. right. i'm for support now here species bob, thank you so much. liverpool have taken top spot in the champions league group thanks to a 3 to win of an athletic madrid in the spanish capital. star player mohammed sala found the back of the net for the 9th game in a road to give little believe that the wonder metropolitan or that advantage was then doubled by nabby cater. and after only 13 minutes, it looked like the visitors were going to run away with it. but it let it go. head back, thanks to 2, anton drink min goals, the frenchman and villain as we sent off in the 2nd half short. and the pressure eventually told the seller slotted a penalty to complete the victory. one more win will guarantee liverpool a place in the knockout brownies july. so it was also 5 go through lane
