husband's murder he says when those teenagers came to attack our camp they didn't say a word they just started going out to see. them there are children here and they just started attacking us even more viciously my husband was lying dead in front of me after that i lost consciousness. on the day of our visit the boy received a call from the police and leave asking her to testify in court she refused the fish she says was too great since the attacks police have responded to requests from community leaders to step up their patrols and run the district. miroslav heard about the roma community leader and a local councillor in the past most of his work was about helping roma people access to basic government services many here don't even have a birth certificate let alone a passport just in recent months he's been confronted with a totally new set of problems as the victims of the attacks come to him looking for

atmosphere is suddenly turned this has been a break in the political church and suspicion is full and the inhabitants of this road community will move so if you want them they'll give it all back. someone broke into the church. to have pictures we never do find out how the investigation ends the now the police leave robinho without making any arrests at a time when the roma community needs the police to protect them or the never relations with law enforcement attempts a moat but suspicion. that a quick check of some other stories that have been making news around the world and international delegation has arrived in north kivu province in the democratic republic of congo to help combat an outbreak of ebola twenty people have died so far it comes just a week after another outbreak in the northwest of the d.r. scene was declared over. the remains of what are thought to be fifty five u.s. servicemen killed in the korean war have arrived in the united states by surprise.

mike pence attended the ceremony and hawaii he said that president donald trump was grateful to north korean leader kim jong un for fulfilling a promise made at the two leaders summit in june and pope francis has changed catholic church teaching about the death penalty and declaring it is now prohibited in all cases the church had previously allowed for capital punishment in certain instances but francis calls those teachings outdated he said that the death penalty was an attack on him and dignity. turkey has threatened to retaliate against the united states after washington post sanctions on some of its government officials the sanctions are in response to the detention of american pastor andrew bronson who was arrested in the wake of the failed coup in twenty sixteen despite the bullish stance from on korea turkey's currency sank as the sanctions came into force. the effects of the u.s. sanctions on turkey can be observed over the course of just one day as the donor

rises in value. the leader has fallen even further we're lucky if it doesn't fall further than ten. million eggs have become more expensive gas is more expensive and there's always a bridge to your brand the divide between nato partners u.s. and turkey is deepening interior minister who himself was hindered by the entry ban tweeted this someone who belongs to us in america for to no good and we will take him back so it was referring to the islamic preacher who fled to the us up to president declared him responsible for the twenty six thousand attempted coup the president trump on the other hand is worried about this man he was fast and dr branson seen here in turkey last week because he was transferred from prison to house arrest three months after the attempted coup bronson was arrested on charges of terrorism we've seen no evidence that pastor bronson has done anything wrong and we believe he is

a victim of unfair and unjust attention bug. government of turkey vs the u.s. government blames the turkish justice and interior ministers for bronson's incarceration those ministers u.s. assets have been frozen and in turn the foreign ministry said that the threat of sanctions from the u.s.c. would not remain without consequences. well china is renowned for its historic great wall building started on the mammoth fortification back in the third century b.c. to protect china from invaders these days china also has another wall known as the great fire wall in china it's supposed to protect chinese citizens from on the desired foreign influences first set up in two thousand the great firewall blocks access to certain websites and certain terms that the chinese government deems dangerous and any whiff of criticism of the government or terms that refer to the student massacre in tiananmen square in one thousand nine hundred nine for example are prohibited in the past the tech giant google has spoken out against such

internet censorship in fact that's why it pulled out of china back in two thousand and ten at the time google's co-founder said the following are objection is to those forces of totalitarianism our hope is their progress and a more open internet in china well times have changed and eight years later google is reportedly secretly planning its return a new report from the investigative website the answers sept says that the tech giant has a team secretly working on a new censorship version of its search engine for china well earlier i spoke to the author of that report the intercepts ryan gallagher began by asking him what he discovered about project dragon-fly google's secret effort to get back to china. yeah well basically dragon-fly is the project name for. an under

that google has developed for smartphone users in china the idea is that it will get them access to a censored berrigan of google that is compliant with the really in communist party regimes censorship controls over information that people can access on the internet in china and google is trying to get back into china. using the censored up that people will be able to access once it's launched and at the moment it's applying. the google idea was to have it ready between the next six to nine months to watch but we'll see what happens and the story that we published yesterday made us through a spanner in the works so we'll have to see how it develops. china would of course be a massive market for google bence's elim has that side of the story sara sadly anyone who has used google before at some stage without even realizing it in many

cases it's the best known face of one of the world's biggest companies alphabet which has a market cap of a seven hundred thirty billion dollars together that you posted revenues of two hundred twenty billion last year and google is not only about search engines anymore it's also mapping the entire world providing half the world's smartphones with android operating systems and even researching the transport systems of the future but the chinese market offers astronomical revenues and google wants to get back in challenging the likes of home grown by do is fell by seven point seven percent on the reports. let's talk about the reports with theresa looking for news web site motherboard germany for is good to see you again how legit all the reports first of all they are pretty legit first of all the intercept broke the story and they refer to one whistleblower and leaked documents and later on those reports were confirmed by report new york times citing two sources familiar with google.

google employees and google itself has kind of dance around the topic a little bit by saying they don't comment on speculations but they have already made efforts to break into the chinese market in sundar pichai is also known as someone who wants to re enter the world's largest internet market we're talking about seven hundred seventy two million internet users i guess that's tempting but does google really need to i think they do because in china there are companies that are way more successful in binding. basically every part of uses life into one app like we chat they have government approved mini app. within that they do everything from micro payments to virtual i.d.'s to social networking to communications but politicians and also by do the search and giant in china has

a big part in that so yes they want to definitely into that but if the chinese can already do all of that today google well it depends what what google stands for and this is the exact the exact question if google is just as one employee criticized today turning into a censorship machine in china they might not because then they can already be used by do the other problem is that even if google is not censoring or would be not censoring particular search terms china with its great firewall is already employing a service by cisco that prevents the forwarding of search results so even if they results would be displayed the page you would click on would be turned up like just briefly i also read on line one comment that even a new to version of google would still work better than by do well it could be if it depends on how how extensive these censorship efforts are but for sure they are big they're big shift from search of brand new also has had experience of such

you've been the google founder who has that experience with told terry newsom and that is why he opted out to in two thousand and ten after four years of killing and censorship by the chinese government and google's not afraid of getting split up at some stage i mean if it continues to pose the ready an octopus you could say in the corporate world it has its finger in every pile and then entering such a huge market i mean it would be globally don't with it yeah that is true i do think that they'd still listen to their employees use or that is to be hoped at least with google maven we've seen that in some steps they were taking were met with a lot of chris's criticism and it still being the octopus that it is it still has its code of conduct the line don't be evil if you see something evil hear something evil speak up so it is to be hoped the employees do exactly that reason look i thank you very much for coming in and i can thank you. donald trump has been

ratcheting up the stakes in the u.s. trade clash with china as the ice raising tariffs from ten to twenty five percent on two hundred billion dollars worth of chinese imports at the same time the visit a meeting of southeast asian nations taking place in singapore say they could have the world's largest free trade deal in place by the end of the year speaking at the opening of the event singapore's prime minister said the asian nation a sense of state relevance in times of uncertainty the plan for the trade deal would include sixteen countries and be backed by china. has appealed to washington to return to reason of the translator's threat. and let's check in with bullets in frankfurt our financial correspondent there because the un investors will cautious about trump's comments yesterday but it looks like the threat to sinking in today. the threat of twenty five percent tariffs on chinese goods have hit markets today it started in asia where

markets went down it's actually pretty sad if you look at the board it's pretty much all red in all the major markets then it's swapped over to wall street and the dax behind me you know isn't doing much better today the biggest loser in the in the dax where industrials is immense on top of the losing who list. of course with bad results today as well but also car brands folks are going and continental so overall not a great day unless you're apple exactly good point because. as we've just been finding out ourselves here in the newsroom apple has become the first us company to top one trillion dollars in market value for the record crowns a decade long rise fueled by its i phone it transformed the tech firm from a niche player and personal computers into

a global powerhouse spanning entertainment and communications started in the garage of co-founder steve jobs in one nine hundred seventy six apple has changed how we communicate with each other and how businesses conduct they become. britain central bank has raised its key interest rate despite concerns the u.k. could face a breakthrough driven economic shock you know the a few months a quarter point hike by the bank of england is only it's sick and brave increase in street thousand days and a response to strong job numbers the bank is expected to be more cautious in the coming months as the new departure talks continue bank of england she's conny has warned that a no deal breaks it in march shock the nation's banks are. talking about shocks temperatures here could hit new highs in europe in the coming days it's already been a hot hot summer all mad it has indeed and you know it's having of course some knock on effects as well we're going to focus on germany because the summer

a scorching heat wave has depleted some of the country's most iconic waterways reverse such as the rhine of the alba are at far lower levels than usual and that is wreaking havoc for boats big and small have a look. only a few pleasure boats are still out on the river elbe interest in bigger boats can see water levels have dropped to forty six centimeters here about one and a half meters lower than normal. we should be up to our knees in water here but simply smaller vessels were still able to operate until recently but now they're going nowhere do you buy the older boats with a shallow draft are still able to sail but it's difficult for them to dock so they've had to reduce or even shut down operations. on the river rhine near calls for barges are still on the water but most can only carry half their normal cargo so as not to run aground in the shallow channels but very passengers here don't

need to worry yet these boats can still dock. about favorite tape he says it is all there is can still operate even if the water levels drop further by default and couldn't but if i can but it's possible that some of our passengers services won't be able to run for just reduced field couldn't near the city of mines low water levels on the rhine have brought history to the surface police divers have found sixty six anti aircraft shells from the second world war they say removing them entirely is too dangerous. too scary condition is such that we don't want to transport them so we've decided to explode them under water through. the low water levels have also attracted treasure hunters on the lookout for precious ject or two. and sports news soccer authorities are considering changing the format of penalty shoot outs to make them fair and reduce the pressure on players going

second the name of the new system is reminiscent of a very well known swedish pop band but will aba for of a hit find out fresh off the back of a world cup which saw plenty of penalty shoot out drama young german players a trying a new system. with research revealing the side going second in a shootout loses sixty percent of the time a new format has been devised baby also known as cs teams take alternating pairs of penalties off to the first spot kick. to often high new teams have a style the winner takes it but what do they make of the new system. it's good because in the old system the team going second was under greater pressure which could make them lose in this system if the first person misses his teammate can still level the school. that is limited as much as a human count your own player on the way back which makes

a difference psychologically so it will have to wait and see if it's adopted by german football and in the next world cup. with the system also set to be trialled in the english league this season it might not be long before abba takes center stage in football. next newest signings was formally introduced to the media on thursday then got scuffed who is formally a player for shall and is also a german national team player is that byron's training camp in bavaria in southern germany he talked about how he thinks he might be most effective for the squad. it was always fun because i think it's already known that i see myself playing in an attacking midfielder role or would prefer that at least that's where i play best and as has been said i'm actually fairly flexible when it comes to being deployed and that's also definitely one of my strengths and so that's why i'm also ready to play another position if the coach things that is where i'd be most useful to the team minutes you know the mind with those that don't want to have the best move from come on the second day of the first cricket test between england and india and
