and their families. 6 turning through in the volatile world of chicago, south side is no easy task. witness. ring sight on al jazeera. i'm from canada and my country are playing in the world for the 1st time since 980. this is my 1st time hovering a world cut. so to have the country that i was born in playing in the countries that i live in, that truly amazing. it's so exciting to watch. world cough comes to cats are seeing it all come to life has been an incredible experience having the biggest football tournament in the world in your own backyard was such a special time to be living here. ah

they. c they protested in china called the present shooting thing to stand down the grows against the 0 covey policy. ah, sam is a dan. this is al jazeera alive from dell hall. so coming up to clear resumes and strikes, targeting kurdish fighters waterfalls and the preparing to launch ground incursion into an inferior east african leaders meeting kenya to discuss peace plans for the democratic republic of congo. the main rebel group won't be at the negotiating table and will tell you why some fans in gun struggling to follow that team progress. worldcom. ah, we begin in china weather a protest for a 3rd day against the government. strict cobra 19 measures. the demonstrations are

rabb, display of public defiance against one, the president changing things, policy to fight 3 years of some of the toughest current of virus restrictions in the world. cases in china have hit record highs in recent days. protests have taken place in shanghai bay. jing and the city where the pandemic 1st began. woo hon. they started in odom, she the capital of sheep yang province after a building caught fire. and 10 people died. many se, rescue efforts were delayed by lockdown restrictions. responding to a question during a briefing on the protest, china's foreign ministry spokesman disagreed with some of the reports. you know, the you're going to distribution you describe does not reflect the reality of what happened. china has been following to dynamic 0 corporate policy and has been making adjustments based on the realities underground. patrick fog has more from

hong kong. this isn't just about the cove it cubs. it's all. so people with that, with lots of people up these protests holding a blank piece of paper, a symbolic to signal that discontents over censorship. and in many cases, people are challenging the leadership as well. that being reported people actually chanting at these protests saying that we don't want lifelong leaders. we don't want emperors, and none of this arguably would be happening if the protested did not feel they had strength in numbers. let's take a listen to of what some of the people are saying on the grant. don't cheer king turns will not. thanks euro i feel that is a heavy burden, but i didn't think this many people would come. i always thought that in china's count society, there aren't the conditions to organize something like this. because as everyone knows in the past few years, our freedom of speech to various ways we express ourselves are all being blogs. i didn't think that they would be a day when we can come together on the street to express our demands. i mean,

i think chinese people struggle to get feet and still has a long road to go. we don't have a set way to go. we need a more complete action plan. largely officials are staying quiet on the matter right now. they've also been urging reporters in foreign janice in particular to stay away from these protests. one of the things that authorities study want to avoid doing is pictures getting as they have been over social media, which might inspire a more people to get up on to the streets and to voice their anger at what's happening right now. meanwhile, the v v. c says chinese police of arrested and assaulted one of its journalists in shanghai. ed lawrence was covering the demonstrations for the british broadcaster when he was tackled and detained by police. the bbc says he was released after several hours. chinese officials told the network lawrence was arrested to protect

him from the virus. aging also says he failed to identify himself as a journalist. james crabtree is the executive director of the international institute for strategic studies, asia. he says, china's government is facing serious challenges and covered 19 is adding to its troubles. it's extremely rare in china. this is one of the most challenging moments for president vision being since taking office 2 terms ago. china is in a very difficult situation. its 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 covered 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 of the cobit cul de sac in which they find themselves the challenges that you have. a pretty

clear tension between not allowing cobra to spread. i'm looking after the economy on the other hand. so trying as economy has slowed considerably, there are many factors that play into that and some of which had 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 are fed up with having their normal lives disrupted by the harsh coded policies and worried that there may be more of this to come because there's no obvious route out of the cupboard situation. ok has resumed their strikes against kurdish fighters, northern syria on sunday jets bummed area is controlled by the why fi g? a kurdish group linked to the p k. k to k considers the p k. k a terrorist organization. the defense ministry says the ground defense. it will be launched as soon as possible. anchor blames the y p g for recent attacks in the stumble and ghazi and i q ations,

the group denies. center call saw the has more from killers near the to clear syria border. everybody was expecting a ground operation last night, and there are so many turkish media outlets at positioned themselves in garza and there been killers. of course, these kinds of offensive offenses are also based on negotiations. but what everybody expects on the ground inside syria, and i'm all the people that we have spoken to so far, this is imminent and an operation must be coming soon. according to the expectations took here is preparing for an election that is scheduled for a june 2002023. i, of course, the military operation is not the main target main objective or of as an election campaign, but definitely it will impact or the consequences it will, it, it, with how consequences as the turkish a people and not only the ethnic target or the others, but even ethnic curse,

they are again, they are mostly against a the e outlook q to sound a work as far as the p k. case attacks on the civilian. so after it's stumbled bombing, there is a public opinion that has shown solidarity against these kinds of terror attacks. and definitely this would bring some woods for the turkish president who is allied with the nationalist party as well. but as i said, this is not the main objective of the operation. the main objective of the operation is to complete their a half job that was left half in 2019. when trickier launched an operation against the kurdish fighter group y, p g, at least 4 people have been killed in an attack on a hotel. in the somali capital, the arm gruber shabbas claimed responsibility gung storm. the villa rose hotel which is close to the presidential palace and is regularly used by government officials. several people have been rescued. smalley as minister of state for

environment and climate change them our house see was that the hotel at the time of the attack? you admitted there was a security failure of course did or failure failure theory would not be the weight of that new thing. but remember, we had in the war region a war, the guns. i believe the service, thanks to for their life is in the remote village, tomato, in government, and he severely and other parts of the country. so this a manifesto the last to kicks and using the last in a, in the that there is a pain. in the interim, we have decided to finish this one example. what is all the casualties casualties? and they want to increase the casual c williams. so that the up,

the what i will not going to let them work a i think this is the right time to finish this a, somebody community just all of them. but i up a, again, this is to group who leave it in the place that they were extra people fanning people didn't miss using that could making islam loop. but so basically this is, this is the time to finish them up. yes, i said there will be pain, but in the incident, but just know the things that do that relate for our children and grandchildren. we had to, to the month to finish this and we will finish this all la. these african leaders are meeting to discuss ways to bring peace to the east and democratic republic of congo, and $23.00 fines is not attending. after rejecting international calls to disarm and withdraw from areas they have taken, i'll just hear malcolm web reports from the front lines nikki bomba. depaula for the democratic republic of congo armies been fighting the n 23 armed group up and

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 don't put it. we don't have time to waste because m $23.00 and $1.00 to only understand the voice of bullets. if they don't listen to the calls of the leaders, we'll have to force them back to the place where they came from. congress ministry has jet fighters a new attack helicopters, military sources, say they wondering why the government rarely ordered them to bomb m. 23 are tillery, and help the infantry at font. nearly 300000 people were fled to fighting
