we have coming back here because we are so afraid after seeing the huge thick black smoke rising from the folks. so those of us who live in the danger zone decided to leave. the. airports in bali and loan book has been forced to close even thousands of tourists and business travelers stranded. in the city to check if it's a good thing to. get the. guy from a ship because he needs to get taken. down so we don't know what's it like to be over. the country's geological agency says that level was raised again because of a cane is now spewing out. that suggests a major eruption could be imminent. or for the very latest let's

cross now to bali we're joined there by emilio lloyd he's an australian photographer living on the island tell us this is the second reveller since september how worried are people that the ball kaino will erupt violently this time . you know it's definitely changed here since the red alert was issued a couple months ago so i was. definitely more right now that i'm really well this is still speculation still doesn't mean we're going to miss small smokes up the incoming united states we take. a look at new york. i suppose so i mean especially given that the last time that the volcano erupted in one hundred sixty three more are more than a thousand people were killed what about the evacuees one hundred thousand people have been told to leave their homes is that evacuation going smoothly. i've heard

bits of. you know there's a lot of people on the ground trying to yes you know. they're trying their best to make it work it's really inert there's a lot of foundations and they're out there trying to trying to get people up and up and it's one of her it's like some areas chaotic in other areas. what precautions have authorities taken to to avoid what happened again back in sixty three when up over a thousand people were killed. just trying to get everyone out of that danger area it's obviously very key group when you've got. to try and make sure that if you want to be on the area say that it is doing you know what is why i'm trying to get in on right now. while. dealing with something that somebody to want someone to know and so they really don't want. indonesia particularly bali very dependent on

tourism this must be having a huge impact on the tourism industry. yeah this is going to really hurt a lot of people what a small season since what i'm working families of really needs i don't know the exact number of that when that red alert was issued last time a nurse or doctor that was one of money and he says i'm going to be on the fact that it's actually really schall to scare a lot of people. really are thank you for talking with us emilio kozma floor there an australian photographer on bali and he's among those. to myanmar where pope francis has arrived becoming the first pontiff to visit the country is making the visit to encourage the country's small catholic communities less than one percent of myanmar identifies as catholic francis also is expected to weigh in on the road refugee crisis in meetings with civilian military and

religious leaders hundreds of thousands of her hinge are still facing persecution and violence in myanmar many there say his visit could bring more attention to their plight. papal souvenirs on sale in front of the st mary's cathedral in young gone. this is the pope's first visit to me and. christians are a minority here just like the muslim or hindu who for months have been fleeing persecution in the country's west it's a sensitive topic that threatens to overshadow the pope's visit. we have so many conflicts in our country i hope the pope brings peace and strength for the christian minority. he shouldn't bring up the issue that which is the buddhist majority here they don't want him to get involved. i think it's ok if he just makes a general reference to the situation and that everyone should have equal rights. among many catholics are afraid of being discriminated against just like the right

here and people refer to the muslim minority as bengali or illegal immigrants from bangladesh even mentioning that woodrow hinge as the pope often hands is considered taboo. in the himself not only requested not to expect this one because in this time of peace he did something on one of the consequences may have been so. last week me and mine bangladesh signed an agreement stating that rohingya refugees will soon be repatriated back to me and. the details of the agreement however remain unclear at busy groups for the british people say the agreement is to. it was just him on his desk should be involved and involved and. not about the donkeys. that it wouldn't get to see didn't see this that get killed by c.p.s. and future. but the question remains how political can the pope be and me in my

mind how much moral authority can he show because he won't want to offend the country's deeply buddhist population. say look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today radical islamists in pakistan say they're dismantling a blockade of a major road into the capital islamabad after forcing the law minister to resign all those arrested during weeks of protest will be freed in a deal which is being seen as a defeat for the government. chinese authorities say a septic tank because at the center of a huge explosion that rocked port city of bowl on sunday the blast killed two people and at least nineteen more were injured two more are still missing highly flammable gases such as methane and build up in septic tank. and the longest serving member of the u.s. congress is giving up a key committee posts while lawmakers investigate allegations of sexual harassment

against him eighty eight year old john conyers was the senior democrat on the house judiciary committee conyers denies the claim. here in germany there are signs that the country's post-election dead law could be nearing an end with indications that a so-called grand coalition could be in the works chancellor in america's conservatives now say a renewed coalition with the center left social democrats is the best option for the country that's after talks to form a government with the greens and pro-business free democrats collapsed the only alternatives to a grand coalition are new elections or forming a minority government. well d.w. political correspondent with us in the studio this morning hey mckenna remind us again why is the s.p.d. so reluctant to enter a coalition with chancellor merkel's conservatives well if you were surprised that more emotional times they felt abused by the relationship of the grand coalition

they've been there twice before with chancellor merkel and they feel that they never really got the credit for their own successes their own policies that they did manage to push through like the minimum wage for instance and after this clear election defeat we saw the s.p.d. lose so badly in this last elections and this is the democrats immediately rolled out the leader told that they would go into another grand coalition well or a couple of weeks down the line now we've seen a failed talks to even enter a coalition talks with the free democrats and the greens and now the social democrats are kind of coming round to the position that it might become their responsibility their duty to at least stop talking now you mentioned fresh elections some were calling for the oldsters nationally ruled out this coalition as you said a report we heard one s.p.d. probably leading member of the s.p.d. also saying that maybe the chancellor has just lead a minority government maybe the s.p.d.

could could support that in some way is the s.b. really so divided on this issue joining a coalition or are they just playing hard to get i think it's a bit of both i mean certainly there was consensus in the party that it really needed some time to reinvent itself to potentially go into opposition there was a lot of support for that but at the same time and this is also an opportunity to govern and we can see the prices rising and they will be able to push most likely be able to push through a lot more of their benchmark policies than they did in the past a grand coalition at least on paper how that could translate into practice of course we're still weeks so i def would months away from even finding out what that could mean you know thank you so much you know you political correspondent jim acosta. soccer and in sunday's bonus legal action hamburg took on hoffenheim in desperate need of points to stave off relegation but they faced an uphill battle often time are also on the hunt for points to keep them in contention with the top
