5:18 pm
a record fine from the iris data commission who found the meta has violated the general data protection regulations. the g d p. all regulations which all a lot stricter in europe and elsewhere in the world. and they did that when they shuffled regions of hospitalization belonging to european facebook uses from the you to the us without properly protecting them against us civilians. practices are the potential us civilians, practices. now the commission rules, all the tech platforms, must make sure that data is safe, guarded against these practices. and they found that facebook's ability students to just not laptop so has to be said that it's only facebook message company, not instagram and whatsapp that the subject to this ruling, but as well as the fine they have is the said audits that master has to suspend all for the transfers of use a day such as the us within the next 5 months. and within the next 6 months,
5:19 pm
start processing for storing that use the data in the us now mess of relies on this process. i had previously said that building like this is sort of how they would have to suspend facebook in europe. but due to a pot that is going to assist them to take the safe, a transfer of use that they said to the us being in the pipeline. and looks like that where it has to happen. your opinion, commission, excuse me, is just come out and says that in the last couple of hours, that should be fully functioning by something. so that's going to be a huge relief for a lot of face, but use us here in your right, charlie. so how significant is all of this and tell us more about how mehta itself has responded? well, this is the largest fine ever given to a big tech company in europe is a previous violations, but it's not the only one over the last 5 years. some $4000000000.00 in fines have
5:20 pm
been recruit from those companies from breaching g d p regulations. it is large, call it because they are a state commission, believes the meta ignored previous mornings from the european court of justice in 2020 who mandated that tech companies must make sure that use the dangers protected from us surveillance. they felt like that was ignored and that is why this fine is so large that messrs obviously said it will appeal this decision. it is um, obviously um, appealing fine too, and it's off the court to put a hold on the decision. nick clack is the president of messes the global affairs said. we're disappointed to being singled out when using the same legal mechanism used by thousands of other companies looking to provide services in europe. and i quote, this decision is flawed, unjustified, and set a dangerous precedent for other companies transferring data between the us and a d. u in the us. so the purpose, the active a smart sams, he was the one who 1st know which this case has said that this fund could have seen
5:21 pm
a lot, because the maximum finds that she full $1000000000.00. so they, in some ways and for the way quite lightly that he says, unless the surveillance always gets fixed method will have to, we could have 2 fundamentally restructuring system 3. all right, thank you so much. charlie angela reporting from london to a bell of russian journalist who was pulled off the plane and sentence to 8 years in prison has officially been persons. so the arrest of romantic protests, of which caused international outrage in 2021 after a fake bomb warning left to his flight being diverted to minutes and force to land . he run an opposition, tell the ground channel. he was convicted of organizing unrest. i'm plotting to seize power. yeah. condition. i'm very happy, of course, too many motions at the moment, difficult to express them. but i'm very grateful to the country and to the president for this decision. i hope it would be only better now. for us to don or fighting is being reported around the capital hours before

5:23 pm
we must remain vigilant that we have to keep doing our job. we have to do the work . i am convinced that we are facing in our case and misunderstanding the will dissipate quite quickly. at least prime minister has visited areas devastated by flooding last week. george maloney says the country might need to use the european union solidarity funds for natural disasters to support recovery efforts. the damage is estimated to more than $1000000000.00. a police 14 people have died. a thought behind me is in the flood hit region and says many communities are still isolated in these higher areas. the problem is land slides. actually we have, we said that in on every road we have taken. but beyond the villages and farms that we made out of reach, parts of roads and some ridges have also collapse. so the only way to reach those of the mountains at the moment is by air. and throughout the morning,
5:24 pm
we have seen helicopters, cliffs crossing, the sky, carrying food for people and animals. this one actually is taking feeds to afford to farm. it's been not possible to assess the full extent of the damage on the hill tops, but down here there are at least 5000 farms that have been submerged by floods. and they have either partially o completely lost the crops for region known as the foot valley of italy. the last is immense. hooked up how many eggs is either in the middle mine? yes, as well. paragliding is gaining popularity in northern iraq, where mountains provide an ideal condition. many of those flying high hope to one day take part in international competitions. while those who live in the area, hope the support will help boost tourism. from what i've been, why has reports from coin hendricks the windsor cooler in the city over mount high,
