confrontation about coal climate axis in germany, trying to block the demolition village to expand mining. ah, the i'm to clog this is our desert life and there are also coming up protests in bangladesh. the opposition calling for the next general election to be held under a non partisan administration. russian forces joining hands with the mercenary group to step up a tax on the ukranian town of solider in the east plus millions under a severe weather warning. the usa to california to new pacific storm threatens more flooding. ah, so that police and germany are evicting climate activists from the small ton of lead stuff that's going to be turned into an empty pity coal mine. a court has

rejected the protests is requesting to stay and police have started removing them. you can see as an uneasy truce there at the moment, more than a 1000 protests as have been captain withdraw since sunday. let's take a closer look at these. are colin germany at the end of last year? it was the nation's biggest source of electricity making at 36.3 percent of use up from 31.9 percent the year before her other sources of energy were when solar and natural gas. germany has a plan to stop using copa by 2030, but at the same time the usage of coal is accelerating. and that's because the warrant ukraine resulted in an energy shortage. and germany is replacing russian gas with coal power station to now restarting expanding and stay open for more years than planned at step baston jones's life from the craters camp in literature . as a step, tell us what's happening and all the protest is still holding firm. well,

after years of legal battles and protest, the eviction of looked at has actually started early in the morning. as soon as the daylight started, the police really ran into a de village from different angles. they are basically encircling the whole village of lots of arts right now. but active has also spread around. there have died themselves, also 2 different a barricades. as you can see here, people are caged in basically, so they can be removed very easily, but also some serious scuffles already between police and professor of police. really bursting. and we've seen some people with injuries as well. so it's quite a tense situation here. it's around a 1000 protests as i think, and it's a really white area. people are also living in 3 houses. they barricaded themselves into these houses that are left from the village of flutes or at the villages have left a while ago. but now this is a protest camp,

an international climate protest camped, so to say, which is about to be removed. and i am joined here with one of their protest. this likes me to, to fill this up as i am nice to meet you. and now thanks for joining us. so the situation has started pretty grim this morning. it's a, it's a disaster to see how the police are and how many they are and how the states supports here, the capital interests of odd b e, which is it needs to start action on climate change. this is the climate catastrophe is happening. now people are losing their lives every year, every day. it in the global south it, they are, people are drowning in their own house as they are people like falling off because of the heat waves. let us know if these are police has been calling on, protects us to leave the village. we hear the loud speakers the whole time. police is calling on people to leave. they can voluntarily leave. there will be no legal

repercussions, but people are not leaving. no, we are strung together, although the police has brought brutal islands on us to like get into this village . there are already people been hurt already on their spine for example, which is a disaster. and, but we can't leave as this is the last opportunity to stop this. the biggest c o 2 sauce in europe, the ryan bronco region. but police has come with quite a bit contention to right from all over germany. we see police cars everywhere, the whole village is now encircled, so there's no way out. we knew that this was happen. we knew that they would get all the police as this is a political issue here. it's about climate justice or not. and we can't just likes let this happen. we have to fight. and we knew this would

be coming. people are coming from all over germany and europe. so we are strong that together. come to the right brown cur region here on saturday, they're going to be a massive demonstration and we are not leaving this area. we've seen some injuries already. right? there were some, some serious scuffle. so how bad is sir? are these injuries? yeah. people have been hurt in the spine, for example, in the hats. and yet the day also almost eyes have been heard. so this is also what worries me the most that this shouldn't be happening. this is such an injustice that we, as people have to stand up and this is actually a task where to politicians would have to do. they have said that they are ready to like do something for the $1.00 degree a goal, but they're doing nothing. and every days, avi e is coming nearer and nearer, and we know this is an injustice and that's why the people are here because because

they can look away and we are standing together, civil disobedience was always part of them, a democracy. and they, as we're trying to, to put us down. but we are not, as we are fighting for democracy governments as we're going to face out coal in 7 to 8 years from now. this is just a temporary expansion that's not satisfying. and no, not at all the coal adults love will be like dicked away in 2026 at least. so we don't have a profit of that anyway. and we don't need the call for energy safety as they are, are saying that the it, that it should that we needed. but we don't. so actually i am asking, must have fun to we need to do this really. and i'm so scared of other people. what i'm going to happen to them, and i are sir. yeah, i, i really don't know why why we have to do this. thank you so much for joining us.

so today it's going to be a long day, i think, for the protests of 4 pulleys for every one here. and as so locks me just explained . there are also some independent research has been done, who also said that this call that needs to be a dig up from beneath the ground. i'm staying here now. it's not really necessary because it is enough supply at least of, for the month or years to come. but that's a political decision. it has been made by the government in berlin, especially because of the energy shortages due to the war in ukraine or a separately with their for mon, thanks very much do for that update burst of us but police in the french capital. so they've shot a man or 3 attack, several people with a knife. it happened in the busy garden north railway station in paris. several people have been injured. suspects is now under arrest. tens of thousands of opposition. supporters have gather been the bangladesh capital . they want the government to conduct the next general election under a non partisan caretaker administration. bangladesh had introduced

a non political temporary government system to hold fare national elections in 1990 after the overthrow of the previous military government. with a ruling, a warming league suspended the system before the 2014 vote was changed the constitution despite mass protest, then turbocharged re has more from docker, a massive gathering hair in napa grenade dhaka off opposition party members. this is not the only place, though gatherings also in front of the national press club and across other parts of the country. not this rally has been an ongoing movement. this particular day have been piled by alliance of 32 different political parties, and aligns for democracy. moved men which wants to outs, but carn present got bend rather than 10 t demands among them as a formation of caretaker government during the next general election which is due in december this year. they won the government to divide the parliament angry line

immediately and to bring the fort prices under control. many other people from different walks of life have joined this opposition. rally then upset and fed up with the rise of essential goods, oil prices high, high inflation that can't cope with the living any more. so this is part of the demand of common people. now the political party said they'll keep on this movement till this government resigned and then declared caretaker government to run the election. now they also won the election commission to be reform and have a new one because they said the last 2 elections were unfair. there were rig and there's gunman is here by red rigged election. most of the political opposition leaders. we spoke through here and common people. they have the same wise. and they said it's time for the government to go and call for a neutral care. they got government to conduct the election. it appears the

movement is gonna continue till there's some resolution. and a political crisis seems to have a new dimension in bangladesh right now. russian forces have stepped up their assault in a small, so money town and east ukraine, with the help of a group of mercenaries. the wagner group is now claiming control of a solid, our city center. the cape says its soldiers are holding out the fight. he goes on for now. russia's a game accusing the u. s. or participating in the ukraine war, about 100 ukrainian soldiers the heading to the united states to begin training on the patriot missile defense system. russian. i'm bastard, washington says america is trying to inflict as much damage as it can on russia by canada, as more from the white house. they wouldn't be drawn on the time line, how long the training is going to take on when exactly it is going to start. however, it is understood that a groups of the cranium soldiers are already on their way. now. it must be understood as well that a hatred massage battery. 5 requires some 90 soldiers to man. so although the

figure of $100.00 is being pushed around, it's likely to be higher than this for the battery to be continually operational. in other words, you wouldn't need to change the from 180000 rather than one team of 90. so this training we now understand is going to be happening. as i said, the duration we don't know when exactly it's going to start. we don't know what it does appear to be is that the training will take place in oklahoma, in the fort. so army base, this is the home off the american field off hillary school. so that will be on the u. s. base in oklahoma. we understand we will hopefully get more details from the pentagon, perusing battle president is one of those who confidence in congress that's after the attorney general and allison investigation. the 18th boyardee and members of her government on genocide a murder charges follows the most violent days since. unrest began to december
