hundreds of people who protested in several chinese cities in was become an astounding public challenge. her one of president sharing pings signature policies, demonstrations against the government. strict anti code measures of taking place in beijing, shanghai, and even were hon, where the corona virus pandemic 1st began. a protest started after building fire on thursday killed at least 10 people in orange tree. the capital of shing giant men is a rescue efforts were delayed because of locked down rules. the government assisted policies are necessary to keep the public safe. trying has been living with some of the harshest anti code measures for 3 years. and cases have been hitting record highs over the last few days. nearly 40000 new infections were reported on saturday . so we had to leave a report o, a site seldom seen abating. hundreds of people on the street, boise left fewer yet china's stringent 0 quoted policy, around show

a public anger against the leadership. in shanghai, the country's biggest city police, the rest of the testers. them away, leasing them on the buses. there they beg, the night before crowds of people were shouting down with the communist party down when she didn't ping. this latest outpouring of anger comes up to 10 people were killed in a fight at an apartment block in room. she social media uses planes are locked down in the shop. john region, the hindering rescue efforts, an ongoing measure in china, 0 corporate policy. that's usually why don't rest even as private cases, such because of how many people to eat on the one hand. but also because it goes from the topic colby, it locked down to questioning the whole system of china,

the government of the communist party. and of course, the people responsible for the 0 call the policy. so they are, the leadership must be very, very much and it's very hot for them. what to do. the digital have been held at universities across china and in shanghai as woman. she rode a street named after the city of rome, she in memory of the victims of the fire. oh, in a capital protested sign. well, holding up the blank pieces of paper, a symbolic protest against censorship, borrowed from hong kong defiance of a bond against protest. slogans in the territory. in the face of authority, china is the last major world power to enforce

a 0 coven 19 strategy. it's continuing with snap block downs, lengthy quarantines and mass testing to deal with outbreaks. methods abandoned by other major nations. record numbers are 5 at 19 infections have been recorded for days in a row, and many here are running out of patience. so they go out, is there a hundreds of residents in the central chinese city who have also been protesting the coven? 19 pandemic 1st began there 3 years ago. videos on social media show people in the city demonstrating against the country's strict curvature policies. but as of smashed through metal barricades and overturned korean of ours testing tens, demanding an end to look downs. more it's rudolph is a research scholar and fellow at the poolside china center at yale law school. he joins his live now from berlin. thanks very much for being with us in protest. as we, we've been saying a relatively rare in, in china. what you make of the scale of what's happening at the moment?

well, it is definitely unusual that there are so many different cities, all across the china, all across china demonstrating right now you have students were protesting, you have workers who have been protesting. and this is quite unusual to see this all over china at this point in time. i think one of the main questions will be now what will happen in the days to come? how will the chinese leadership react to this? right now we have a lot of going on to chinese social media, but we can expect to have a harsh response on the ability to communicate all those pictures via social media . but also on the street itself. we went to her, so on a nurse on i got a garage report there, there in shanghai, the protest going beyond issue cove, it and people calling for a shooting, ping to to resign order and the communist party. how significant is that particular aspect of it? well, i think this will be one of the crucial questions. it is because you have different actors that have been traditionally been protesting in china for their specific

reasons, like workers against the working conditions, university students against the situation of being a student right now in china. with those covet measures, then as well, minorities, people living and she and john saw what the chinese leadership would try to do is to just like, insulate those different her protest measures to saying, well, you have a responsibility and she's young. you have responsibilities of the measures at the am at those are add, those are and university for science is also in the, in the fox gone unfair factory. but at the same point of time, they want to have this disentangled. but this has been, she didn't pings policy, so disquiet attached to him as an individual. so it will be quite difficult for the chinese propaganda to an extra detach him into focus. and this in a more localized that and a more localized level again. and what about any chances of he's took that detaching from that from, from the policy. what about the, any prospect to the policy changing at all? on the retirement?

i think at the moment is quite unlikely, because right now you don't have that many cases. if you look at china, it's 40000 cases of the country, 1400000000 people, and we are at the rise right now. so we can expect those, those numbers to cra drupal and to increase and to increase in the must come while and the i see you better them. a capacity in china is relatively low. so it is quite a dilemma you have on the one side, you have this pressure coming out now to change those measures. but the same point of time if they do it, they will have more people in hospitals. they will have more cases. and, and so the question is how to balance this out. one of the measures that could be an unpopular bill at this point would be for the chinese leadership to respond really harshly to the, to the protests and to have. and they get really strong locked down, but then they would need to provide some kind of roadmap, how to immunize the population through vaccines, out of this in a month to come. because right now, this is an unsustainable situation. you talked about response,

you mentioned earlier, the possibility of a half response on communication because people are kind of sharing these pictures . then you told us now about the possibility of, of cracking down on the k with that. what about it? as of a broader crack down into terms of sort of the state response is that danger here? well, it's about right now. you didn't have that such a strong response like no military on the streets so far. i'm actually clamping down those protests. but this is, of course, a possibility of those protests continue, but i'm sure we'll definitely have them kind of harsh response from, from the state because they cannot, they won't allow those protests to, to, to increase further. so there's of course, the year for some incentive step. but what we see right now is that detachment of we see in social media and how to state propaganda machine is responding. so it's mostly focusing on, i'm calling the people to persevere to continue this and to have this as a, as a joint and effort of the chinese population. what is the same point of time blaming for educators and who are and then made responsible to this,

not only the piece foot purchase, but someone escalating it further in this, of course, than the creates another incentive for this to spiral out. even more potentially. i trail, thank you very much indeed for you and i thank you some breaking news out of somalia . now the on group al shabamo says it's fighters of attack to hotel used by government officials in the capital. mogadishu police, the attackers storm, the avila rose hotel, which is close to the presidential palace with explosives and guns, as no information yet on casualties. and when you more that, as we get it, a turkish defense ministry is reportedly going ahead with its planned ground offensive in northern syria. in the coming days. turkish forces are targeting at kurdish fighters, me y p g r group allied to the syrian democratic forces. anchor blames them for a missile attack, the killed 5 people on tuesday. the military is already bombed and shelled some sites in the syrian countryside near the border. before taking to the streets in
