10:17 pm
a sense of trepidation that a hushed tone really. but once they're inside, all accounts suggest that people actually feel quite as if they're on their own with the presence of these soldiers. the vigil looking down was that the whole atmosphere is you couldn't hear a pin drop as one person said, and then varied acts before the coffin of former service men saluting some women. curt, seeing some people just bowing their heads. others just staring and brother overwhelmed by the sight clearly so that there is quite a quite an atmosphere. and of course this is not going on for 4 days. and then the state funeral on monday, which will be the biggest funeral in the u. k. since winston churchill in 1965 under simmons, thank you very much. indeed. let's get morn our top story. now the protest in haiti,

10:19 pm
b like the serving the northern area of haiti and likely for disaster preparedness. and there's, there's been spiking violence throughout the country and going to wasn't spared. and clearly the depot has been looted and set on fire from all the reports we've been seeing so far in terms about where you are in network print. so there were some situations where people had to stay at home because of the gunfire . what's it been like? cuz today it is very complicated. today are hungry now for the most part at home. there has been barricades and angry mobs roaming street in response to the recent hikes of gas prices announced by the government yesterday and essentially doubling the prices
10:20 pm
for all or products. so as such, it goes down for the most part important plants, all our activities have been suspended and we've been experiencing network issues all morning. so it's very complicated situation in haiti today and how much, you know, you mentioned the gas prices doubling for people in haiti, very, very poor. generally they had how much of a difference is that like a maturity? that's why they're demonstrating, but give us ministration of why it's so important. well, haiti has been caught in, in, in a subsidy situation for at least the past 15 years because it was part initially generous loan program called patrick or e be backed by venezuela. but since the development of the financial crisis and in that issue than better, well, i haven't been able to get the subsidy and also corruption problems. and as such,
10:21 pm
the haitian government has had to literally pay out of pocket for it to subsidize oral product for in haiti. and this imbalance today is a serious concern and every government has tried to avoid addressing it. but today, the reality is for the last 2 months, gas stations haven't been working properly. so as such, a government as been cornered in the situation and took the decision to raise the prices. obviously it's a hot topic and it's a social matter because precisely the poverty and haiti, harold isaac, thank you very much indeed for tundra so really appreciate, appreciate you bring this up to date with the events and haiti. thank you. no group of migrants, boston from texas, have been left stranded. nathan, you washington d. c. home a. vice president. com la harris. as as another group of about 50 people was sent
10:22 pm
from the southern state of florida to martha's vineyard. in massachusetts and republican governor of florida. rhonda santas has claimed responsibility while greg abbot of texas says he sent the migrants to the capital accused democrats of ignoring border security. the white house accuses the governors of using the migrants as political pawns because the acts shameful data. but you don't want to go on the trip here. i was given a bag with food to eat on the 40 hour trip. it was a very long trip. quite tough. we didn't expect we left the drift here without knowing where to head to the objectives to reach new york time made us feel and fixed us. i was held in migration detention in texas. i mean from the migration center we would take into place the culture. we were given information, so you're able to contact you if you have any with my case, i chose to take a bus which was leaving free of charge and the destination was washington

d. c. a. i came looking for the possibility to find work and get like everybody. how do you hear castro joins us live from washington dc. tell us more about the white house reaction to this. lauren, the white house spokes person called this a pure political stun. to say that it was shameless for these republican border governors to be sending children and women and men and families to the side of a busy washington street. that is where these a 101 people were essentially dumped this morning outside of the residence of vice president comalla harris. and this was not the only destination for migrants from the border yesterday in a what appears to be a coordinated campaign. though governor of florida paid for 2 flights of migrants from texas to go to martha's vineyard, massachusetts, which is a small resort town where washington's elite go to vacation. the message from both
10:24 pm
of these governors was clear. it was again shared with reporters and on twitter to day saying that this was a deliberate way of getting the attention of president biden. and his administration in addressing the complaints of these border governors that they say the border is not secured. however, if you do look at the numbers, laura and they tell a slightly different story, while crossings are still certainly an issue. there were about $200000.00 encounters between us agents and migrants in the month of july, which is a decrease from the peak in may and also lower than the same time last year. so certainly this is an issue that those border communities continue to experience. but as far as having those migrants get on board these buses and come all the way across the country, sometimes the destinations where they have no connection to like hear the nation's
10:25 pm
capital, new york or chicago. it is a difficult journey for them to endure. and sadly, there are some even reported injuries from the 2 buses that arrived in washington with one man who is diabetic. having arrived with his insulin, gone bad on that 40 hour journey rush directly to the hospital or how do you get sure. thank you very much. house officials and focused on the sind probably say they're seeing a rise in waterborne diseases. among flood victims focused on navy continues to assist in the supply of vital aid and medical equipment to residents cut off by the flooding. that's not let hundreds of thousands homeless and killed more than 1500 people local dr. say initially they were seeing mostly patients for trauma. but now they're treating people suffering from diarrhea, skin infections, and other water born elements logistical. got. i think i left my house along with kids with empty hands. flood water entered my house. i didn't take anything with me
