up the challenge to one of present she doing things, signature, policies, them demonstrations against the governments. strict anti cove with measures in beijing, shanghai, and even who han, where the corona virus pandemic 1st began. the process started after building fire on thursday, killed at least 10 people in the room. she, the capital of shing jang, many se rescue efforts were delayed because of locked down rules. or the government says its policies are necessary to keep the public safe. china has been living with some of the harshest anti cove and measures for 3 years. and cases have been hitting record highs with the last few days. now the 40000 you infections were reported on saturday. so again, report o a sight. seldom seen a beijing. hundreds of people on the streets, voicing their fury at china's stringent clothes policy. a rash show a public anger against the leadership. in shanghai, the country's biggest city,

least the rest of the testers. dragging them away, leasing them a buses their day. the night before crowds of people was shouting down with a communist party, down with she ging ping. oh, this latest outpouring of anger comes up to 10 people were killed in a fire at an apartment block in a room. cheap. social media uses blamed and looked down in the ship. jang region, the hindering rescue efforts, an ongoing measure in china, 0 corporate policy. that's fueling white on rest, even as proved cases surge. linda, definitely unusual. did you have so many different cities all across the chart or all across china demonstrating right now you have students who are protesting. you have workers who have been protesting, and this is quite unusual to see this all over china at this, 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 and chinese social media, but we can expect to have a harsh response on the ability to communicate all those pictures in abuse, social media, but also on the street itself. ha mitchell's had been held at universities across china, and in shanghai is william. she rode a street named after the city of a room chief in memory of the victims of the fire. oh, in a capital protested sung while holding up 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 coded 19 strategy. it's continuing with snap lockdown,

lengthy quarantines and mass testing to deal with outbreaks, methods abandoned by other major nations. record numbers, 19 infections have been recorded for days in a row, and many here are running out of patience when they go out there. well, james crabtree is the executive director of the international institute for strategic studies, asia, he joins us live from singapore, welcome to the program. so how rare is this kind of display of public discontent? it's extremely rare in china. this is one of the most challenging moments for president, changing things since taking office 2 terms ago. china is in a very difficult situation. it's population is largely on vaccinated. it hasn't been willing to import effective vaccines, many of which are made by the west. and it's enduring a cobra spike, meaning that the lockdown measures its population have had to endure,

are likely to get worse. and so the government is in a real fix on the one hand, they need to find a way of restoring public order. but there isn't an obvious way out as the cobit cul de sac in which they find themselves. given what you say, then how damaging have the strict lockdown rules been to the chinese economy as a whole. lockdown rules are one of the challenges facing the chinese economy, but the challenges that you have a pretty clear tension between not allowing it to spread and looking after the economy on the other hand. so trying this economy has slowed considerably. there are many factors that play into that, some of which are to do with a lot downs, but i don't think it's fundamentally about the state of the economy overall. it's just the people of fed up with happening there than normal life disrupted by, by the harsh cover policies and worried may be more of this to come because there's

no obvious route out of the coping situation. china might say that it's policies have been successful in terms of the, the death rate in proportion to the size of the population. china would be absolutely correct about that. china's policies, particularly in the early days, were far superior to many of those in western countries. and on a per capita basis, trying to death rates is still very low. the challenges that china has not been successful in vaccinating particularly it's elderly populations with vaccines that work well. 40 percent of china's elderly are not vaccinated. and so the route that was taken by the countries in which you remove coping restrictions and you just let cove it begin to circulate and you let the vaccines do that. isn't really a good one in china because you will have a huge coping wave. and lots of on vaccinated elderly, so it's a real fix until china can get its population vaccinated with vaccines that were

either by developing a chinese vaccine, which is more effective and persuading old people to have it all by biting the bullet and importing them on the world market, it's not obvious how you get out of this, and actually coca 0 is a reasonable policy in a situation in which most of your population is not vaccinated because the health crisis that would follow. and if you just like covered a rip through an vaccine in the to population would be quite damaging. and the chinese government know that which is why they start to, to the coverage policy. in addition to the fact that patient pain has been very publicly associated with this. and so it's difficult to back down from it for political reasons. if you said there's no obvious way out of it, is there any sign at all that the chinese authorities may change or, or amends perhaps that there could be 19 strategy to more target matters? i think they're going to have to, i think they already knew they were going to have to because of the economic consequences. but given the display of unrest,

i think they now have 2 tasks and they want to do it in this order. the 1st is to get the protests under control. this is not a government, but it used on say the american government or european government having public protests. and so the 1st impetus is going to be to restore public order and stop the protests. but i think subsequent to that, there is going to have to be some measure of targeted listening. for instance, if you are a young person who's had 3 doses of sino farm, the chinese made vaccine. well, that reasonably effective, if not as effective as one of the western made m r n a vaccines. and so maybe a different set of rules. so those people in order to give a sense, the china is coming out of this at some point soon, because it's simply about the chinese regime says we have a co outbreak and therefore we have to go into hard locked down again. and there's no real end in sight then. that isn't going to be something that is going to cool the anger and frustration that people are showing on the streets by demonstrating change crabtree live in singapore. thank you very much. indeed for joining us. the,

a few 100 armed fighters. since then, the un filmed fighters enter in congo from miranda and rwandan. soldiers have been photographed among and 23 fighters. the so does it say they fighting the enemy? that's better equipped than them, they say, and 23 fighters get more food, more water, and that they have heavy artillery hidden on the hill top. that makes it difficult for them to fight and advance mode with the captain told us their enemies on a hillside less than a kilometer away. and 23 is rejected. international calls for it to withdraw and disarm by a deadline that passed on friday. corners army says we're one, the ones military control of this area through its proxy and 23. it's rich with golden colton. mines. congress government says n 23 can't be part of the nairobi piece talk unless it withdraws and disarms. who

soon. malcolm went al, jazeera cuba democratic republic of congo. it's been 9 months since russia invaded ukraine, and both sides have accused each other of reaching international conventions on prisoners of war. one woman has spoken of her time on the russian detention in eastern ukraine. she was released during the christmas wall, but is still coming to terms with her harrowing experience. so in a hover pulse, alina panini is a 26 year old ukrainian border guard and dog trainer. she was among hundreds of soldiers, police and border guards who survived the siege of murray pole in the warren of tunnels and funk was deep beneath the as of style still works. they were the southern port city, not back to the defense of thought sab alive. yeah. they fired from the, the launch rockets, the sea and tanks with nature the russian infantry arrived in

a final act of defiance before their surrender. in may, alina here on the left, joined others in singing the national anthem. they were taken to underneath a grim detention center near the russian occupied eastern city of donnette sc, despite russian denials, others have claimed torture was commonplace. here alina struggles to find the words from shaw quadrant bang, bang for the fields, and every day in the felt like a week, it was a closed room for 6 people, and we had 28. i'm in the chat, they did a lot of different things to a they would exactly like a logical pressure. whereas and they did other things. i kind of describe them. and then at the end of july, there was an explosion. dozens of ukrainian prisoners of war were killed in war. russia said was ukrainian shelling lena's account support, satellite imagery,

and independent analysis that indicates the explosion came from within. ukrainian president followed him as lensky called it the deliberate mass, murder of p, o. w 's. there's a wall of the said the shadow in the right should on the 1st of the sure let it happens after 10 pm. we heard screams, dog's barking, was wounded, were brought to us into the women's building, gave them what medical care. we could not, and they told us what happened. they said half of them were already asleep. others still are talking. when the explosion happened. they said it happened on the inside . somebody said they saw the explosion itself. if it had been shuttling with that would have been destruction in lots of places. but there was only one hole in the roof of the building. meaning it could only have come from inside. october, alina was among more than $200.00 ukrainians, released in a surprise, prisoner swap. but she returned home without her fiance ilia, who was captured just before the siege of as of style began. min one is the magical

creature he's been imprisoned since the 12th of april. he has told one, his capture was confirmed, he is on the list. but where he is, exactly. i don't know alina long's to, for the return of sonya, the beloved cocker spaniel, who was her constant companion in the hell, as she describes it all out of style. sonya she believes, is also still being held by the russians. jonah ho al jazeera keith. ah. although her is a center of the full wealth right now, but there are all sorts of cultural events in the city during the world cup. lexia brian watched a show in the rest central district known as the po, ah, i'm here in kind of court here, as you can probably see behind me,

account number and yet managed to come out on tom and people have been telling me, you know, didn't really tell me about the change from the region that they're doing so well at this, the nurse will come from the middle east with iran, when i have a wild say with the saudi when i didn't take the last weight. of course now morocco, the belgium, a huge or the world i what happens around the rest of the tournaments. ah, well that's the culture behind the football. now let's talk about the action on the field. generic as well scurries. i talked to you on though how's waterfront? catherine's transfer is provided some memorable, well cut shocks and we saw 2 more on day eights of the tournament. the highlights was morocco beating the world's number 2 rank team belgium. the girls came late in

the game from abdul hamid subsidy, and zachary abu clo to give them a to know when it was only morocco's 3rd, when ever as well cut finals. and they were in a strong position to reach the last 16 for the 1st time since 1986. they will quantify if they avoid defeat against canada in their final group game. the other upset came as costa rica, bounce back from this 7 gold, some paying by spain to beat japan. case fillers? 18 minute go was enough for one. know when the had been alley stadium, that was costa rica, the 1st shot on target at this tournament. in the clash of the european heavy weights, germany picked up their 1st point of the tournament and draw with spain. it was spain who took the lead. when alvaro mara came on as a substitute and put aside ahead. but germany fought back to secure what approved

a vital points in this group and other sub nicholas full croak finding the target. germany leads to beat costa rica in that final game have any chance of reaching them the count states and canada made history with that 1st ever. well, in that game, with probation from alfonso davis, but that's as good as it goes. the equalizer came on the half hour from andre, manage the 2018 run up found that tries to see off the 1st talk with another go by marco li via after the break croatia pulled further ahead. when rich got his 2nd goal of the night, canada were undone again in the closing stages, with a breakaway goal for navarro maya to steal off convincing for one victory. peroration now cit, talking, say, group on goal difference and just need to draw against belgium in the last group games. quantify for the last 16 canada won't be going any further in this

tournament. well, let's talk through some of the days. main talking points with one rango and chicago makisha, ayesha morocco giving themselves a great chance 7 late to be making it out is one of the african themes in the knockout stages. not so many people believed that moreover, had a chance in that group, but seeing them, you know, in the opening game, holding croatia to that goal. joe, it just, you know, told us a little bit about the coach rallied re grabbed, he's not conceded a goal since he took over in august of this year. and us just a couple of months with the team. 5 clean sheets for the atlas lions that just gives you a picture into what the team can do. and the problem that they had was really to score goes. and now we've seen 2 very incredible goals, not from super stop players from really young players in the squad seberio, obviously with a good history playing for the germany and a 21 side. and now finding his routes. you know, with morocco really just shows you what they can do,

i think they have the quality to deliver in that last game against canada. and they'll go very far in this tournament. one, spain and germany sharing the points. will the german fans be happy with that, or will they be worried that their team may not reach the group stage for a 2nd while company? right. the perspective kind of changed after the the japan game to be quite honest with you. if you look, think took a couple of steps back and look at this group or from a german perspective, you'd have said, well, if we draw with spain, i don't think that's a bad result. it still isn't a bad result. but i think we'll compound that or makes it a bit more complicated, is the fact that they love to japan. the point puts them back in the race, especially knowing what happened in the other end of this, of this group. and it puts germany a position where they can advance if they win and only if they win. so that's where the pressure is. they didn't want to have the pressure in that last match. i should group is very tight. who do you think will make it into the last 16 after this game? now i can comfortably say that i think spain and germany will make it out of this

group. ok, i'm writing that down. i'm going to bring it back to you later on. it's been better than i have, so that's why i have to go with her. it hasn't been as good as you think. why do you agree? spend gemini worse? i mean, logical. as the, as it's progressed in this group, we've seen it spain. maybe of course, results not get better, but we've seen their functionality work. yeah, they had a breakdown with germany, but of course it's germany at the end of the and germany also improve the more compared to the loss against japan. now they freeze costa rica, how will cost reagan come into that much? that's gonna be the big. all right, we'll have to wait and see one on russia. thank you will. by the end of day 9, every team will have played 2 games at this well cut mondays actually gets underway at elgin's stadium as cameron play serbia at 10 at g m t. that is followed by south korea's match with ghana at education, says he stadium, brazil have a huge following here in qatar and they will be packing it in at stadium 97 for for their game with switzer.
