contain the anger with one muslim man dying from stab wounds shops run by muslims are being torched all ransacked and the owners targeted. because. they came with a sword and tried to attack me but about 15 people came in several taxis. they threatened to kill me i ran away through the back door. the same group attacked my brother shop the police are trying to stop such attacks and manage a volatile situation. it's beautiful this small group must stop the dangerous game they're playing against the lives and property of innocent people 100 others i must state that we won't allow the country to be led to anarchy by those who show their strength on armed innocent civilians in this ongoing no shoot and the sri lankan

government has imposed a nighttime curfew the government has also set about blocking some social media platforms hoping to stem the anger but anti muslim violence is becoming more frequent and it's increasingly clear the sri lankan government has to step up its efforts to contain it. for more on the story we can speak to the fire nando a human rights activist who joins us from the sri lankan capital colombo ruki thank you so much for joining us now a curfew has been issued for a 2nd night and we're hearing that security forces have intensified their patrols in areas that have been hit hard by this ethnic violence is that helping. well we hope we will hope last night we saw that the curfew didn't help too much during the we saw several incidents as that were happening anyone actually a couple of days ago or are only gamble when there was some violence the night you went out of the curfew was in was we heard of mobs roaming around with sticks and

nor different forms of weapons which were used to attack muslim houses so we hope that today the curfew will actually be meaningful and it will be used by the police and the armed forces us to stop violence and to arrest people who are response look at who is responsible we keep talking about angry mobs seeing pictures of large crowds who was behind this and i was on violence and how much has social media played a role. well we've seen that couple of people have been arrested and some of these people who've been arrested down. in order and. these are people who will be known to have been behind rowland's against muslims before there are people who've been arrested before by the police so it seems that similar things that we've seen in the past in terms of violence against muslims is repeating itself. so of course there are local mobs involved also but these particular people that i mention and it will be not already arrested are not necessarily from the local area ok well from your perspective there do you think authorities are taking the right steps to

stop this violence. well clearly what the authorities have done so far is not sufficient that's why it was allowed to get out of and particularly yesterday and yesterday night so a violent incidents continue to happen in your ink a few hours and you see in their different can police force the sri lankan armed forces are in a fairly liberal you know attacking protest by university still learns and various other groups who are protesting against grievances but they seem very constrained in attacking an arm ones who are going after muslim shops and mosques and houses what about among the general public a month amongst the lankans working what needs to be done there to. the tension's it's been less than a month since the easter sunday bombings. so on one hand the law enforcement agencies need to step up their act on violence is actually happening on the other hand they think there has to be a guarantee of accountability and i think if there was accountability for previous incidents of violence against muslims and christians and other minorities maybe

they may not have seen what we saw in the last couple of these and particularly last night when in addition to the legal and saeed i think the government found also that we just clergy needs to engage in a lot of public outreach to explain to people particularly singhalese what we're still down bodies that muslims are not fairies that we need to avoid this with muslims and then muslims only know the receiving end of a lot of violence and discrimination by cooky fernando a human rights activist joining us for. you so much for sharing your insights with us today thank you to sudan now we're 5 protesters and an army major had been shot dead in the capital khartoum the deaths came just hours after protest leaders which the breakthrough agreement with the ruling generals to transition to a new elected government protesters want a civilian led transition though and they've kept that pressure since an uprising that ousted longtime president omar al bashir. security

forces chase a protest and down this street in sudan's capital khartoum they whip him and beat him before he appears to run away. across the city protesters have been blocking roads as they try to increase pressure on the ruling generals to step down. a military council took over last month after veteran president omar al bashir was forced from power. but these people don't want the army in charge. longer than months ago and the old regime has not fallen yet so we're staying you've seen with your own eyes the oppression we've escalated our protests because we reject the decisions by the transitional military council we've blocked knol street to pressure the government we want to ensure our voices are heard we hate what they're doing they even use whips on us. who are going to flip that. on monday saddam's military council and opposition groups finally agreed to

a power structure for the country's transition. the. protesters want civilian rule but the makeup of the governing bodies has yet to be agreed. just after these pictures were filmed at least 5 sudanese protesters and an army major was shot dead on tuesday the ruling generals blamed supporters of the former regime on the situation has been exploited by other factions and by sleeper cells of the old regime and others who are still targeting its revolution. the generals may claim alba she is old god was responsible for this violence but increasing tensions between the military and civilian protest is too plain to see. why the demonstration has refused to go quietly talks between the 2 sides continue

secretary of state mike pump aoe says that president trump is committed to improving relations with russia pumping oil was on a visit to the black sea resort of sochi for talks with russian leaders including the foreign minister sergei lavrov his then due to meet with president putin the 2 men have been delivering their opening statements pledging dialogue. i'm here today because president trump is committed to improving this relationship. as as i think he said we have differences we each country will protect its own interest look out for its own interests of its people. but it's not it's not desolately we're adversaries on every issue and i hope that we can find places where we have a set of overlapping interests moscow correspondent mia drug storage is following these talks for as jaime oh so it's a reassuring words there from my home pale but what actions are we expecting

i don't think that they will see any actions today after that meeting because both countries really got completely different interests right now and so a lot what's on their agenda right now is that they will talk about venezuela they will talk about syria the situation in ukraine north korea is a big issue iran of course the an f. treaty that intermediate range nuclear forces treaty both countries have truly made it was i think very important treated is russia willing to release paul wieland former marine he has been detained here in moscow on suspicion on espionage a crime that carries a prison sentence of up to 20 years so as you can see there's a lot on their plate one of the items on their plate and meo is iran we heard europeans yesterday warning a war between washington and tehran is there a chance that these talks could actually deescalate tensions. i don't think sir because moscow is really supporting its ally most important allies to say in the

middle east and that is wrong both countries are fighting together in syria side by side with president assad fighting the terrorism in this country and i don't think that russia's going is willing is willing to support america on that issue and iraq america would like to see a regime change in tehran and i don't think that this is in the interest of moscow right now what about the russia u.s. relationship in general you know present trump entered office saying he wants to improve that relationship has it improved. i don't think so because right now the democrats still. have a majority have a majority in the house and as long as democrats are controlling congress i don't think that they are willing to accept any sort of improvement. in their relationship but do you remember when president obama called russia a so-called regional power meaning it's not a global power anymore and us unwashed u.s.

doesn't have to negotiate with russia to solve important global problems right now we see that you have really to talk with russia to get things done in venice who are for example or in syria our correspondent your bags there is reporting for us from moscow thank you. you're watching news still to come the messaging service what's out this hit by a major security breach how worried do you need to be about your personal data will get answers from the tech expert in just a few moments. but 1st environment ministers from around the world are of berlin today for an international climate conference the pressure is growing on governments to do more to slow the pace of climate change last week france and 8 other e.u. countries announced they try to get rid of almost all greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 now germany has been falling short of its stated goals on cutting emissions but today chancellor angela merkel indicated that germany would like to join the

initiatives. many expect her to send a strong signal. for a long time and america was de climate chancellor but you know admits that germany has admitted schools. we have agreed on quite a lot at the european level and have set targets but there is a gap for the 1st goal of 2020. via a new look. back in 2007 america was active under field in greenland in front of met in the last years on the international stage she talked about global warming as a crucial issue during her men date government leaders of the 8 biggest industrial countries agree to a 50 percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by the year 2050 but in germany things look a bit different denise showgirl to reduce gas emissions by 40 percent will not be met as america still hasn't tackled the issue was

a transport and car making industries instead her government decided to continue using coal and has limited the development of renewable energies the german chancellor has already say that a 2050 goal to reach c o 2 neutrality was a no go but no she is open to the idea. we couldn't view of you how can we achieve this objective of climate neutrality on c o 2 by 2050 the question is not whether we can do it but how can we do it. if we can find a reasonable answer to this question we can join the initiative of the other 9 states you and i actually isn't. for many young people however this simply isn't enough. many of those who take part in a fight if a future of protest but only talk lows when i go to america came to power as climate chancellor and greenhouse gas emissions in germany have hardly decreased since so for germany's serious demands of the climate chancellor is no more.

there's been a major security breach at one of the world's largest communications apps whatsapp has discovered a weak spots that allowed remote spyware to be installed on mobile devices the financial times newspaper is reporting. and israeli security firm and s. o. group developed the surveillance software the report said a u.k. attorney involved in a lawsuit against the n.s.o. group was among the targets whatsapp is urging its 1500000000 users to install the latest update as a precaution the company says it's referred the breach to the u.s. justice department and we can talk to a local she's a tech expert on the editor of vice germany's tech site motherboard she's with us now i said so tell us more about the group that's reported to be behind this cyber attack and so group right so is allegedly one of the largest developers of surveillance technology and spyware and they're based in israel they have around about $500.00 employees and their customers are governments and secret services

around the world they've been known to work together with. the tarion states and they do not deploy the to sedate delap themselves they sell it on and usually with a memorandum that this is not to be used to choose or not to be used in anything other than to catch criminals in fact oh the governments that buy these tools have been known to use them against political rivals and even dissidents they know to carry out such a large scale attack. they have been they have been known to develop to copy and paste as this is used to turn the mobile phones off. rival political rivals dissidents into basically walking box ok so so what do we know about who exactly was targeted in this hack we mentioned that there was a lawyer who was i don't get it who else write this lawyer who. was involved in

a lawsuit against the and so group and she was defending mexican and saudi arabian and some. customers to clients who were targeted by. previous to this office in this particular heck this lawyer was. was hacked but noticed that before the heck could happen alerted citizen groups which then discovered the loophole another researcher from amnesty international was also hacked and this one ok so how big of a deal is this to this day for whatsapp how bad does this look for the come. it does look pretty bad although this particular loophole is not something the targets the entire user base that is a high profile target to hack so i think the company is now scrambling to find out how many users are involved it looks like there are not too many uses some both because. this is not something that is going to spy out an entire user base it is

definitely something that is used against a single person ok so there are single targets and yet what's app is telling everyone you know it's $1500000000.00 users to update the mediately is that going to be enough to protect people's confidentiality their data yes because what's content of messages and to and encrypt it means you basically you have a container you close it you send it over that person opens the container and the writ the contents of this container are not to be seen not by what's in the safe and in service so the contents a safe but i think what's happened now facebook will have a lot of explaining to do about the differences between a lot scale user base the pack and something aside it is this one right to clear the look are with us from motherboard thank you very much for your analysis hugh. you're watching good news still to come the countdown to this year's all singing all dancing euro vision song contest the german behind the gala night spectacular

comes to staging the event the country is an undisputed champion this year marks the 6th time that germany has designed the sets for europe's biggest pop gala. the final run up to the euro vision song contest in tel aviv a key test run for florian feeder. he designed the backdrop for the show the biggest competition of its kind on the planet. now he gets a chance to see whether everything works as planned. to bruno. it's all it's a big set and big venue but the stage itself is actually relatively small and that creates an intimate party atmosphere even though when viewed as a whole it of course looks gigantic it's reports to the news of course also. it's the 6th time the german stage designers shape the look of the contest the 1st rehearsals every participating country like poland is responsible for its own

performance but one design element reappears again and again the triangle it's a reference to the star of david and its raining symbol. the expo exhibition center tell of eve is the venue for thinks used european song contest the most complex aspect is coordinating with the various country delegations and israeli t.v. producers. it's not easy to do a search for the vision we have 4141 countries and we need a lot of versatility and they figure. you can see the floor and stage a lot of versatility. of course it's important to me that the whole thing looks good and works visually but the most important thing of all is that it works as a whole. you can only judge that after the show. and when it's over i'm happy if it all went well would leave florian vietor has done far more than create

a stage for a competition with a 29000 euro vision song contest he sets a new milestone for stage design. now celebrities and fans both young and old have been paying tribute to doris day who passed away at the age of 97 the singer and actress was known for her wholesome clean image and lilting voice she passed away early on monday surrounded by close friends according to her foundation doris day enjoyed the peak of her film career in the 1950 s. and the early sixty's and musicals and romantic comedies like calamity jane and pillow talk and her later years she focused on animal welfare. it's coming up on did have you news asia neglect and rapid urbanization has left india's desert mansions crumbling we'll take a look at efforts to save these grand yesterday. that story and much more coming
