which is to show restraint and protect people's rights. to demonstrate peacefully, russell says the words violence in decades is, is, i'm from outside kazakhstan is long been one of the most stable of the ex soviet republics. central asia. robin far, she woke as monitoring events from tbilisi in georgia because it's don's government calls. it's an antique terror operation, military units on the streets of catholic starns largest city al matty authorized to use lethal force against protesters. earlier, some of the protesters overran police units and distributed weapons. security forces have confirmed at least 18 officers killed in more than $700.00 wounded. the number of civilians dead or wounded is unknown, but video circulating on social media appears to show morgues,

donald trump's supporters on january 6th last year and the chaos that father left 5 people dead. the former president has dismiss commemorations as political theatre. she had brought hansi a post from washington dc. go back to that day. what do you see? it was an address escape to an outrage. long storm, this capital a dozen instigated and incited those who called on them to do so. held a dagger at the throat of america and american democracy, president biding referenced old trump more than a dozen times over the course of his speech, not by name or the 1st time in our history. president had not just lost an election. he tried to prevent the peaceful transfer of power as a violent mob breached the capital. but they failed for the president,

followed by shortly afterwards, dismissing the commemorations of political theatre. but democrats on their own, this day of january the 6th, so they can stay there's, i'm divide america. that divided america was probably on display throughout the day after immigrations and events on capitol hill. just one republican was seen at least chaney, accompanied by her father, former vice president, dick cheney. and a ceremony mocking to the right in the house of representatives. now the speaker of the house paid tribute to the us capital police expired because of them. congress was able to defeat dance erection to return to the capital that same night to ensure that the peaceful transfer of power took place because of them. and our members, the insurrection tailed. oh, as night fell duelling vigils took place across the city. this small event outside dcs, joe, to protest against the continued incarceration of some january 6 protested these guys who were at supper, maybe

a dozen or you doesn't who actually you course subs, pepper sprayed, more or less just followed the sea of humanity that they were trapped across town approaches to mounting that congress protect voter rights as republican controlled states use the law of an illegitimate election to restrict access to the bailiff. this event also remind her of the terror of the storming of the capital on per day for us. i remember crawling on my knees under banisters with a cane in one hand because i just had a knee replacement surgery 5 weeks before i remember lying on the floor with the gas mask in one hand and the cane and the other thinking about how if i couldn't get up and leave, which i didn't think i would be able to, that i would attack the knees of whoever came to attack me, because i wasn't going to take it lying down. not without a fight holding of board of american still believe joe biden did not win the

that people who are being held for non violent offences be released on the mall. the national law here just a short while ago. busy there were pro democracy demonstrators were calling not just for the jailing of these people, but for the expansion of voting rights. and except for this very small group here in washington dc. today, the entire day has been devoted to peaceful protests against what happened on january 6. us congresswoman stacy plaskett represents the us virgin islands and was one of the impeachment managers in the trial, a former president, donald trump. she told us off her memories of the events that led up to the attack on capital. i remember some trepidation on the part of some of us members of congress. i had seen many of the signs and individuals the day before

walking through the capital of walking through the grounds of washington, d. c. and the kind of messages that were on some of those songs really gave me pause the amount of bigotry and hatred and anger that were represented there. and then throughout the day of january, i had early meetings and was making my way to flor to be with my colleagues when i was told that i could not leave my office. that there had been a breach of the capital and that it was not safe. and i'm watching the days unfold the fear, the anguish of staffers who were on here on the hill, and seeing the other battle that capital police and metropolitan police did literally putting their lives in their bodies in front of insurrection. so that we, members of congress, could continue to do our duty and certify the election of joseph biden as the

president of the united states sell ahead on our to serve large areas, government trust town, the squares on criminal gangs, blame for recent kidnapping. french politicians get one step closer to making it much harder for unvaccinated citizens to live a normal life and public. ah, ah, look forward to burritos. going through with sponsored. my cattle at ways had low they let thought in east asia, and the wintery weather continues to affect northern and western areas of japan bringing heavy snow to the areas. but we also seen the 1st snow of the seas and a full in tokyo that was often heavy snow alerts were issued for the city and surrounding areas, but on friday it clears up. we're going to have sunshine come back in. the heavy snow can be found in northern areas, like

a condo and west in areas of hon shoe. but if we have a look at the 3 day for tokyo, we're going to see the temperature pick up. it will remain rather cloudy through the weekend. now elsewhere across the region, it clears up nicely for the korean peninsula. we'll have sunshine here and clear skies, and it's a similar story from northern areas of china, beijing and so we're seeing the temperature sits above the average. it's for the south places like shanghai, where we've got cloudy weather temperatures slightly below the average here. and it's going to get rather wet and wintry for western areas of china. moving across into those most central areas now was a move to south asia. it's also looking rather unsettled across much of pakistan. we've got wet and windy weather sweeping in from the west. we could see from flooding from that heavy rain and we're going to see the storms roland to northern parts of india or whoever sponsored by katara ways. beyond the comfort zone. were assumptions are challenged and traveled to the ends

of the earth and further experience unimaginable of the people who live. it is a probably the most extreme situation i've been involved in how quickly things can try and award winning documentary, but also perception witness on a just the euro. ah ah, you're watching out as a reminder of our top story is this. our recent cossick stands largest city, say they've killed dozens of varieties in the last 24 hours. notice began over fuel

price high, can have escalated into what some are calling and are processing us. president joe biden has described his predecessor, donald trump as a threat to democracy on the 1st anniversary of the riots on capitol hill. the incident was triggered by claims a vote of food in the 2020 residential good. the director general of the world health organization says the on the con variant should not be categorized as mild because it's still poses a significant threat to health systems. just like previous variance, ami krohn is hospitalized people and it's killing people. in fact, the soon army of cases is so huge and quick that it is overwhelming health systems around the world. hospitals are becoming overcrowded and

understaffed. we must effectively share the vaccines that are being produced throughout most of 2021. this was not the case, but toward the end supply increased. the lower house of frances parliament has approved tougher coven 19 measures. after 3 days. if intense debate, the bill would make full vaccination mandatory for people to for example, attend public events or travel on into city trains. natasha butler has more from pass it's not a surprise because the government has a majority in the lower house of parliament. the build that now goes to the senate and it may go back to the parliament before probably coming into law in the middle of january, what it means for people is that the unvaccinated population will no longer have access to things like restaurants, cafe leisure facilities,

everyday life for them will certainly become a lot harder now. the bill i was finally approved by the parliament there has to be said of the 3 incredibly in 10 days of debate in the parliament, often chaotic thing, overshadowed also by the french president rather controversial comments on wednesday when he said that he was going to really taken the screws and go off on vaccinated people in france. what they are doing is they are betting on this vaccine pass as a way to try and persuade the last they say 5000000 adults are eligible for the faxing to go and get immune eyes and look looking at the record of the current health pause. now the health pulse that was put in place by the government last year as persuaded you might say, some 90 percent of people to get vaccinated before that health pulse is necessary to go to restaurants or a bar only 3040 percent of people in france that that they want to get vaccine. as

soon as that pulse was put in place, people rushed to get their jobs the government hoping that's going to be the same thing now that it will force people to go and get vaccinated, whether it will or not. of course, we don't know, but the health minister did say on wednesday that some 66000 people had actually registered for their 1st dose over kofi vaccine. so they see that as an encouraging sign the parents of well number one tennis player never jock of that have come out fighting on behalf of best son is mother says authorities tracing him like a prisoner chuck, a vicious chances of playing at the australian open his mouth now depend on a court decision, and j. simmons reports. oh, how so? the serbian parliament in belgrade protest is joan in support of their national hero, the world's number one in men's tennis, novak joker beach. the demonstration is led by his father, who says, australia is playing politics with his son's career. after they got a call in,

they want to throw him on his knees. this would happen. they never managed to throw, so be on its knees. we never attacked anyone. we only defended ourselves. a novak is defending himself, now brothers and sisters, our heart, our soul. i'll find some awful said brian early. this is the moment when jock of each is about to realize his entry into australia is blocked, his visa revoked. it isn't a tennis court, he's going to instead, he's waiting for a court hearing on monday that will ruin his deportation. for now, he's in a government quarantine hotel. his mother is outraged. they are keeping him as a president. he's just not very human. i just called if you will be don as we are trying to do to be a joke of each had a medical exemption to let him play at the australian open tournament later this month. otherwise,

the tournament is only open to the fully vaccinated exemption caused a wave of anger among australians who still faced some of the toughest travel restrictions in the world joker, which is well known as being against vaccinations. another big name in the sport lead joker, which has himself to play in some way. i, i feel sorry for him. but at the same time, he know he knew the conditions sings or a lot of months ago. so the action against joke of each is also causing a diplomatic incident. sir b as president describes it as politically motivated, marshall is a call the true it's l obligation of the state to protect interests of our citizen . we're dedicated to that. what not now is that this is a political persecution that everyone is taking part in. even your straining prime minister, jock of each had thought the path was clear for his attempt to the 21st grand slam

. instead, he faces what could be a road block, and with it, a world wide debate on whether he's been fairly treated. andrew simmons, alger z o, a chinese national has pleaded guilty in a u. s. court to stealing trade secrets from the agricultural technology giant monsanto. and 2017, the former employee shanghai toe was caught trying to bore flight to china carrying software from monsanto. the justice department says he planned to pass the technology on to the chinese government. the u. s. has long accused china of stealing intellectual property from american farms. a charge china denies. i know click joins us live now from washington dcs, a former us deputy assistant secretary of defense or east asia. thank you for your time. what do you think is the significance of this case? well, i believe as a lecture to the chinese government multi dimensional efforts at

obtaining through the various listed and illegal means secrets across the board. not just what we may assume to be focused on military, diplomatic or political issues, but also economic, technological and quite frankly, even agricultural, anything that can give the chinese state and an advantage over international competitors. what is likely to happen to this former employee and do you see me as a scape coach? no, i don't feel safe go and quite frankly, eagles, obviously convicted offenses according to the us penal code. i'm not mentally familiar with this case, nor am i a lawyer. what i do know is it is becoming more and more g

for whether for a variety of individuals to be arrested and tried for listed activities on behalf of the chinese government. very recently, you may recall a u. s. professor harvard university was also convicted of offences having to do with providing the chinese with information that was not intended for that. so i think this is just one more case amongst many, and i think again this is not just the phenomenon that you by the united states. you have had many cases in your trillion other countries as well. how will china respond to this? do you think as usual, they will be indignant, they will deny everything. and, you know, unfortunately, again,

there's a long history of the chinese state using a variety of means to illegally paid information. and again, i would say that it's not just in the military domain or the political domain, oftentimes, the technological domain and chinese companies, chinese citizens, regardless of where they're located, can be compelled and have been compelled by chinese state actors to provide information. there have been numerous cases report, even of chinese students that are at top us research universities be compelled by the state to submit to the authorities information that will gather. so again, this is unfortunately just the latest in a string of examples of where the chinese state is using citizens

to obtain information illegally. heiner calling form a u. s. deputy assistant secretary of defense, the east asia. thank you for your time. thank you. the u. s. and japan will soon enter into a new 5 year defense agreement to share the costs of american military presence in japan. the countries will also sign a deal to collaborate on defense related to such nations. worried about north korea is expanding weapons, all snow on wednesday, feeling young test 5, what it says was a high performing missile case. serious government has labeled criminal gangs blamed for mass kidnappings as terrorist organizations and air this week. security forces rescued, 97 hostages, who abducted more than 2 months ago. but allison, by reports from a butcher heavily armed groups,

half terrorized people in towns and villages in central and northwest. my dear 4 years. helena had enough of no security officials as stepping off efforts to craig known some of the violence on wednesday, the major and government branded the criminal gangs as terrorist groups. in a television interview, prison mohammed double harry said, with lipper them, terry's. we are going to deal with them as such. the bandits asked the man, luckily i have been responsible for my son, abductions, and kidnappings, for ransom and destruction of property. some politicians believe the security measures will hope to ease fears deep, although very happy with what the done. and i will also give, develop done window unity who do deploy on all that means it won't. i'm in it. it tried to give them some kind of work,

nor can it move them around because you goods and eating on what locality most do to check members, sir memphis, the government order means the military can deploy more military hardware, including seeking international support. but the security expert feels the government needs to do more at a political, psychiatric level. i think they completely have your own perception of what the situation is on gra. as so the reactions of allison, extremely slow lack of practice nets and created net. they have never lived this. is that the issue with the suck up address? you expect a country that does not want to be able to bring to bear on the switch on, on ground security agencies seem to have maybe head way with the recent release of some hostages. and he reported killing of some leaders of the group with

political leaders seeking a soft landing, 40 content fighters. the bonded most of them, the trees. so there is need for government under all communities to rise to, to the issue of seeing how we can get this people or whoever needs it on a mission, treat securities expected to be a major talking point, a head of general elections in 2023. it remains to be seen if president mohammed will, harry would have fulfilled his electro promise to end insecurity. before handing over fidel listen bar, i'll jazeera bolger, scientists, the sailing to a giant place in antartica to get a better idea of how much it's being impacted by climate change. and we'll use

underwater robots to get beneath twice glazier, as referred to as a doomsday place here, because it would raise global sea levels by 65 centimeters. if it collapses. iglesia is enormous. a 192000 square kilometers, which is about the size of britain. karen hayward is a lead scientist on the project. she explains what that trying to uncover. it's an enormous gas yet. and if it did completely melts, then it would lead to $65.00 centimeters of global sea level. so spread across the home to blow. but we don't think that's going to happen in your lifetime of mine. nonetheless, it's really important to understand when it might start to collapse and, and to get a better idea of a sea level rise that we might experience in our lifetime. that, that makes

a difference for the sea level defense is that we, we all depend on. so we're going to send a fleet of to really large robotic submarines beneath the i show the floating bit of ice. we're going to send these are the submarines into that cavity where nobody's ever being before. so we don't know what we're going to find, but what we think is happening is that the relatively warm sea water is, is impacting on the base of the sea, of the, of the ice shelf and, and is accelerating the melting of it. and that's important because that i shop is kind of propping up the whole glass. and if we lose a bit of ice from a floating bit than the rest could start accelerating towards the sea. so so yes, we're going to be measuring, measuring the current on the water for .
