this is either be a news live from berlin international leaders calls for restraint in zimbabwe after the military opens fire on opposition protesters some say the government bring to the election look at the latest from the run also coming up lebanon is trying to encourage syrian refugees to return to their country but what about those who oppose the office of regime we hear from one woman fearing for her future. face off in copenhagen danish protesters take to the streets to show their opposition to a new law banning muslim the face veil this.

time see me so much got it good to have you with us international leaders are calling for calm and zimbabwe after the military shot dead three demonstrators in the capital harare the government deployed the army to disperse opposition protesters angry at what they say was electoral fraud by the ruling party. soldiers firing live rounds and zimbabwe's capital. the army into the streets in harare mid-afternoon reportedly at the request of the police. the country's justice minister said the military had been deployed to maintain peace and tranquility and accused opposition supporters of going on a rampage i want the protesters claim they didn't stop the violence. was going on the problem. i just want to know if this is the decision.

the crackdown came after a day of protest in the capital people were taken to the streets to protest a delay in the release of the results of presidential polling. crowds gathered outside the offices of the country's electoral commission to demand the release and things quickly turned violent the electoral commission called for patience verifying the vote was more complicated than expected the commission chairwoman said the unusually high number of candidates was causing delays in the verification process but a spokesman for the opposition said the situation was unacceptable and suggested that something unusual was going on it is everyone citizens right to demand that the results operate used in reasonable time ok the fact that the results far right essential that it's just next door to have not been released by off by by midday today is inappropriate and suggests that something wrong is happening we've been

here before. as tensions remain high in the country the international community is becoming increasingly concerned with governments calling for restraint on all science. melanie corps of the ball is following the latest developments for us from harare hi melanie good to see you now last night the government promised to continue the crackdown on protesters what have things been like on the streets this morning. the situation has calmed down considerably here sumi after the outbreak of violence yesterday but the army is still very present the government has been saying that their police seventy thousand police officers have been employed throughout the election that they are understaffed and that the army needs to remain in place until there is no more indication of protest so basically we are in a silent state of emergency here melanie when are we expecting to get the results from the presidential vote. well constitutionally the last day

to get those results is saturday that's the day when they have really have to tell us who the president is but the results could come in early and of course that has been pressure on the zimbabwe electoral commission to release the results today we are expecting them if they do give us the results today to do that more towards the evening though to avoid clashes and outbreaks of violence the demonstrations that happened yesterday similarly we saw in a report the opposition says the parliamentary vote was stolen and that the same is going to happen to the presidential vote do they have any reason to doubt the validity of the selection. well i mean if you look at past elections they have all been rigged so of course looking at the history of this country this is always a possibility the m.d.c. is considerably concerned because there have been some irregularities throughout the election and they didn't have the funds to send their own polling agencies to

some areas of the country and yes when it comes to the presidential vote that has been a delay they are now that the forms which have to come in from eleven thousand polling stations what the results. could be subject to fraud of course we can't confirm the claims yet but the fear is here. melanie credible source from harare melanie good to talk to you. syrian president bashar al assad says his army is close to victory in the country's civil war his regime now holds around true thirds of syrian territory with kurdish groups controlling much of the rest with many commentators saying the war in syria is nearing an end refugees a broader facing mounting pressure to go home lebanon is currently hosting roughly one point five million syrian refugees the highest proportion in the world travel to the town of a mother who fled syria the government killed her husband and son and there's no

way back for her chill for her and her children but work our correspondent reports . it was not a voyage of the undertaking but the mother of eight and grandmother of three children was forced to flee her syrian home. to take refuge in the town of ourselves just across the border. although it happened five years ago the memories are still fresh my son or husband and son were killed in the syrian war. to beginning of the uprising protests were not violent they were peaceful but my husband killed because he took part in the my son was with the regime army doing his compulsory service to the syrian intelligence service killed him because he. who.

but the pressure from lebanon to leave is building some three thousand syrians have already registered to return i can never go back to syria. she is especially worried about this man. goosen bias is a member of the syrian committee tasked with collecting the names of billing return is and sending the list to damascus for approval who is suspicious of the government mitali the names with those who protested against the regime and i got a vest and upon arrival or refuse them approval to return but golson denies the charge. it's not a condition not an issue of approval and it's just about informing the government of the names of the people returning. he claims syria is now safe and to convince us he asked one of the refugees who've applied to return to talk to us do you want

to go back of course what's keeping me here but it doesn't go quite as he and the sot so he is confronted by angry syrians know their jobs are going back to syria safely is impossible. he shows his great scars the military did this while still a leader. but lebanon's government is eager to push out one off million syrian refugees so many say they may be forced to look at europe again. and her friends are among those thinking about making the journey to your other but they know that it won't be easy but the risk of reprisal by assad security forces is high. one of the ladies has just heard of the arrest of her sister by the syrian regime. i want to migrate to europe for the future of my children and i applied to the un

that they didn't help me other than to have a boy smugglers want that eight thousand euros for the trip and i when i said that if your name isn't it meant that i feel. yet and many here. it may be. conditions. despite all the hardship who best bet seems to be. that report from bora and she joins us now from beirut for more on that story how many syrian refugees in lebanon are ready to go home and why. well only about three thousand as our report said have to leave and there are one and a half million syrian refugees in lebanon most of them have not yet they're just which goes on to see a lot one of them is of course the people who are going back

a going back because they've had enough of the camp life here but those who are not going back see those who are going back as essentially regime or syrian government supporters did want to send this kids their children back to school again education insidious free and light here in lebanon has been pretty hard for them but those who are not going in labs for me is a bigger story because a lot of people as to not certain that's what is going to happen with them when they go back need fear that they might be treated as straight as by the syrian government merely because they left syria one of the people among the thousand plus who were john has already been killed people like with after they will be apprehended because one of their family members protested in the peaceful protests when that uprising began so there's a lot of uncertainty a lot of fear while some members are going back others still fear action by the syrian regime and of course the presence of a city in committee met one of the members of that sit in committee grosser used to work with sit in government earlier so all of the government already knows their

names and can actually take action if they want to and i'm sure what our love and his authority saying could we see deportations if the situation in syria stabilizes further. well you know on cameras all of the parties in lebanon say that the world the city instantly this is a highly political subject here but the here's one of our allies like along the parties are more adamant on sending dissidence back whereas if you look at the future party of. the he's a sunni and most of the syrian refugees are sunni he members of his party seem to suggest that you've got to have more sympathy for them when we see deportations the conditions living conditions of syrians have been appalling their kids have not the image just a few years ago the government stopped giving them the refugee status they don't give them but sort of giving them any legal papers at all think it's going to go to school so in a systematic we from the beginning lebanon's made it very hard for the syrians to

stay here will we see active deportations i think will be beginning to see is a systematic sort of. a process here and pushing the syrians to go back and essentially leaving them with north option whether they will start whether they will call the deportations or not i don't think they call it that but essentially that is already happening until vora reporting for us from beirut until thank you very much. now to some other stories making headlines around the world authorities in the democratic republic of congo say four more people have tested positive for the ebola virus in the country's northeast the outbreak in north kivu province close ugandan border has already claimed twenty lives and the cases come just days after another outbreak in the northwest of the d.r. see was declared over. us president donald trump has called on attorney general jeff sessions to end the high profile investigation into russian election natalie

tran tweeted quote sessions should stop this rigged witch hunt right now before it continues to stain our country any further sessions recused himself from the investigation last year. there remains of what are thought to be fifty five u.s. servicemen killed in the korean war have arrived in the u.s. vice president mike pence attended the ceremony in hawaii he said president trump was grateful to north korean leader kim jong un for fulfilling a promise made at the two leaders summit in june. here in germany bavaria has become the first state to open controversial new processing centers for refugees authorities want to hold asylum seekers there while their applications are processed which can take up to eighteen months they will deport anyone who is rejected critics say the system will stigmatize new arrivals. for many refugees arriving in germany in future this is what home will look like this reception facility in a former u.s. army barracks in the bavarian city of bam bag is the model for the new refugee

centers to be known as anchor centers the acronym stands for a rival decision and return the key idea various departments which look at asylum applications will all be together in one place migration agency labor office welfare all thora t. even the courts because that will mean applications are dealt with more quickly. with these centers the migration agency will in most cases be able to issue documents in three or three and a half months whether people are to be granted refugee status rejected this new approach is the latest chapter in germany's effort to deal with migration since the increase in the numbers fleeing to europe and the government's decision in twenty fifteen to open the borders the challenge of making migration on this scale work has become clear. in many cases it has taken too long for people to find out

whether they have a chance of staying in germany and that in turn has held up any chance of them finding a job or integrating into society. the residents of the anchor facilities will be able to leave to go shopping or for other reasons despite that critics say they have turned to amount to deportation centers. currently holds around fourteen hundred migrants if things go smoothly similar centers may be opened in other parts of germany. activists in denmark have held protests against a ban on full face tails that came into force yesterday the so-called burka ban prevents people from covering their faces in public denmark follows other european countries which have introduced such a ban including france and belgium. as soon as their faces may be masked but their outrage is on display over a thousand protesters marched through copenhagen in defiance of denmark's new ban

on facial coverings they say the lower infringes on freedoms of religion and expression and the right to dress as they choose i mean he said is a discriminating law it's of certain law it's a law that doesn't make sense in practice and i really hate this law i think is so embarrassing and i cannot stand being a citizen in this so-called democracy with this kind of of the mosque protestors and those wearing burkas and the cabs can now be fined more than one hundred euros for more than a thousand euros for repeat offenses opponents say the real price will be paid by danish society we actually live it seeing our freedoms our liberal freedom rights in a society to dress like we want to write we want and so forth so so i think it's mean a dangerous step to take the majority in the parliament has done with this law because what is what is coming next what is after this supporters of the law held

their own demonstration they say the ban upholds secular and democratic values and combat's fundamentalist islam. will want to take a stand against political islam against the fundamentalists in our society that we have some people who believe that their in their right to wear a headscarf would call this all of the face so we are not able to see their faces or she is not able to see their face on this world and want to see you stand against. an estimated two hundred muslim women in denmark where facial coverings some say they plan to carry on despite the ban that i feel insecure now that i'm going out. facing people and moving everything. but but. my believe in him from and. if. i would be in the same as i was doing it's now up to danish police to decide before

are meeting in singapore today that's right and at the top of the agenda there and surprisingly the escalating trade dispute between the us and china it's become a conflict with the potential to harm to do harm to many of the region's economies and the latest salvo from the u.s. is giving today's talks fresh insists. the gathering is taking place amid continuing bad news for members of the association of southeast asian nations or. the us just announced plans to raise its latest round of tariffs on two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese imports from ten to twenty five percent. as part of china's growing export supply chain the us young nation stand to lose big in any trade war. a full scale conflict could slash singapore's growth next year by half the host country's leader warned the association to brace itself. there are rules

based multilateral trading system which has underpinned us against growth and prosperity is under pressure it's important that us and continue to support the multilateral system and work with like minded partners to deepen our web of corporation. southeast asian nations tighten their ties with china following us withdraw from the free trade trans-pacific partnership now they're pursuing a china backed regional trade agreement with pacific powers excluding the us singapore's prime minister said it could be signed by the end of the year. and to the european front of that story the european commission says us soybean imports to the you have almost quadrupled commission president on quote you held it up as a sign the u.s. delivering on promises made to president donald trump last week in an apparent effort to dodge a trade war between the two sides donald trump has certainly disrupted global trade

flows especially when it comes to soybeans u.s. soybean farmers have seen prices for their produce plunged by twenty percent after their prime export market china imposed high tariffs in retaliation for u.s. tariffs on chinese goods the trade has almost ceased the e.u. was quick to take advantage of the cheaper u.s. crop something that must have being clear to commission president john claude younker last week when he promised trump the e.u. would step up u.s. soybean imports. the latest figures show that that process was already well underway. today that you can commit commission has published the latest figures on e.u. imports of soybeans showing an increase of two hundred eighty three percent in imports from the u.s. bringing that use total share of imports of u.s. soybeans to thirty seven percent up from nine percent just one year ago washington had already promised twelve billion dollars to compensate farmers hurt by the

dispute with china but with harvest time approaching many of the most still uncertain i think there is that maybe just a little bit of comfort there knowing their menstruation is back and farmers but you know longer are we're all looking for any kind of an aid package we want markets to work and markets to feed china was us soybean farmers main market and it's doubtful increased e.u. imports can make up for the loss soybeans made up sixty percent of u.s. agricultural exports to the country. beijing meantime has ramped up domestic production and lowered import tariffs on other producers and one side effect of the dispute is that countries like brazil are emerging as the winners brazilian soybean exports to china soared twenty five percent in june. let's bring in holger schmieding the chief economist at bear on bag bank former u.s. soybeans were mainly imported by china that trade now

a war is now hot has europe become a not so on with unwitting trump ally against china well maybe too big a word but it's true that europe has offered already months ago to the us to forget about the u.s. european trade war but to jointly focus on changing some discriminatory practices of china and the you know the us seems to know of half accepted that offer yes they are working together how will that effect e.u. china trade relations. i don't think it will have a major effect on these relations these relations have always been slightly marred by european concerns that china is not of dealing with for instance issues of intellectual property they have always been marred by europeans occasionally accusations that china is not fully respecting the rights of european companies in china so it should not be really new to china that's not just the u.s.

but also europe that has some concerns about chinese practices i hope however that europe is not going to be as disruptive as trump well do you recognize any strategy you there how is it just disruption and who benefits from it. it's difficult to see a real strategy behind what trump is doing he seems to have kind of a pattern he tries to disrupt things with his tweets with his utterances and then see how pieces fall into place after words he's given to occasional u. turns strategy is too big a word but to rock the boat and then see what happens afterwards is probably your description it looks like a he's gambling all the time will he be successful in this robbed in free trade in using europe to help with the trade war with china. well so far we have seen a lot of disruption we've seen a lot of noise we have not seen much progress in that we have seen terrorists being

imposed including steal a living or terrorists on the e.u. there's a good chance that if the u.s. indeed now works with the e.u. to put pressure on china so that china changes some of its practices there is a good chance that that actually may have a positive result as china ultimately is the weaker of these three partners in trade terms a very briefly if you can do you see an end somewhere to this tariff war. yes i do see an end to that i hope that we come to an end before the end of this year already as probably china will have to settle at some point in time others reading their chief economist of the bear and bank thank you very much. you're welcome. the american economy tesla is sinking deeper into the red in the second quarter they lost seven hundred twenty million dollars that's doubling the loss from the same period last year now company c.e.o.
