along piper marked the moment 75 years ago when british troops began coming ashore on the normandy coast. some of those who fought in and survived to d.-day returned to take part in the anniversary events. would like to do it again because. more than 150000 allied troops stormed the beaches of nazi occupied france in 1944 in what remains the biggest ever naval invasion thousands were killed within hours. u.s. president donald trump and french president looked out over one of the beaches captured by american soldiers as planes flew a red white and blue tribute in the sky overhead i think it was in their speeches to veterans the 2 leaders honored the men whose courage ultimately liberated france and europe from nazi dictatorship. today we

remember those who fell and we honor all who fought right here in normandy. they won back this ground for civilization to more than 170 veterans of the 2nd world war who join us today you are among the very greatest americans. who will ever live we know what we. do you. all freedom. on behalf of my nation. i just want to say thank you. for many of the older lead veterans this year's d.-day anniversary will be their last visit to the battlefields of their youth but the rows of crosses will remain a reminder to future generations of the allies joint sacrifice to defeat evil.

and to use the max hoffman was at today's come around commemorations rather and spoke to d.-day veteran frank de vito who was taking part in a ceremony earlier today when you look out to the sea here what do you see. i see a lot of dead bodies. i see a lot of dead bodies still today. i took back to england 300 dead bodies american soldiers. is this still something you think about every day today or has it passed. you leave the war never leaves you you'll always be in war all the rest of your life till they put you in that box. and what does it mean to you to be here today. well i'm very proud. proud to be amongst all these beautiful people of all

nationalities. right there is a question i wanted. a veteran of d.-day for a long time would you have done it if you had known what you were getting into. course because i would have done it and i didn't know what i was getting into. films. people thought that they were knew what was going on here so you weren't surprised by the magnitude but. then when i was when i saw the purchase of the concentration camps i knew i was out of saudi. but no one had the. thank you very much right. we're joined now by my colleague in russia is our political correspondent so good to have you here with us emma a day of solemn ceremonies in france why is it important to keep those memories

alive for this crucial especially and now we've seen that veteran talking he was here at the 775th anniversary but in 5 years' time we won't have probably as many veterans as we're left of today they are their last witness is that their last witness direct witnesses ought to consummate and their own memory a memory of michael a common memory and react to cross fire between the history memory and contemporary issues in international relations and that is why such coming where asians are so important there's a global a responsibility to convey those testimonies to the younger generation so they know where their freedom comes from especially here in europe where they do have comes from as a matter of fact and that's why it's such coming more ations as the ones we showed of the series so today are crucial crucial indeed now present truong and the prism icon of course were headlining these commemorations and expressed mutual

appreciation for each other what i wonder is does that mean now that all the differences that they've had are set aside for the but there was definitely a show of unity today both from a man to michael and from president trump but why it might have reached out and called for a new day of french america. french if we so that trump was more assertive of us power which is actually. funny in a way because the war industry really also had to do you west to become the superpower they became and it was followed by at work doing which i'm trying to even say that the relationship was friends at the moment it was outstanding all right well you know sounds like music to our ears and of course more ceremonies and speeches still had this evening what can you tell us about that was something that was really close to the president's hard to imagine across hard it was to highlight

the role of french into success of d.-day ceremony took place earlier on new sword beach late afternoon where the only french commando with 177 men and landed on d.-day on no mentees beach and 3 of those veterans actually took part to the ceremony and french that was a way for. a man and i called to highlight the role of the french resistance from outside but particularly from within the occupied friends. the french resistance which was instrumental in the sense that day and i don't know i mean i was told earlier that these were live pictures that we're seeing right now are just one of a confirmation where those live pictures that we were to our right yes those were live pictures that you were seeing there as in many much as i was reporting there thank you so very much. art let's bring up to speed now with some of the other stories making news around the world. today as pro-democracy demonstrators say

they're determined to continue their campaign of civil disobedience until the ruling military council is ousted well this comes as the african union announced its announces its suspending sudan's participation in all african union activities until a civilian government is installed dozens of people have been killed in 3 days of clashes between. the military and protesters in eastern uganda at least 6 people are feared dead and dozens missing after heavy rains triggered a series of landslides hundreds of houses have been destroyed in the mountainous reduced our region the red cross has warned of outbreaks of disease due to continuing rainfall and denmark the social democrats have emerged as the winners of national elections taking a quarter of the vote party leader metaphysics and is now on track to become prime minister if she can secure support from parliament denmark is set to become the 3rd nordic country with a new year to elect a left leaning government following sweden and finland. and here in germany

a court has sentenced one of the world's most prolific serial killers to life in prison while former hospital nurse kneels who go was has been found rather guilty of killing 85 patients in his care prosecutors said he deliberately induced cardiac arrest in patients so he could then we said that the them and impress his colleagues but many of her goals interventions failed and patients died on her go had already been serving a life sentence for 2 previous murder convictions from his killing spree which lasted from 200-2005. and you have a correspondent mario miller has been reporting from that trial in the city of oldenburg she met with a former colleague of neil's hogle who worked with him in one of the hospitals where he murder dozens of patients. frank locks the man still reflects on the time working alongside near to where the former nurse was his colleague for 2 years at the main clinic in arden bach locks the man quickly became aware that there was

something wrong with her there. double my blood clot that it was obvious he wanted to be the action hero who saved people but you sometimes get that people who work in rescue services who are under the illusion that they're the big heroes google is one of those. who are for. the man only became suspicious after around a year and a half that's when he started to notice that patients would suffer cardiac arrests more often when who was on duty. thank you for your paper at 1st we just thought it was bad luck until a colleague said so dirty google on duty again a review despite rumors circulating neither lobsterman are any of his colleagues reported to the police he did tell the superior about it though when he noticed that a patient had elevated levels of potassium in his blood but there was no consequences it was later discovered that who would inject patients with potassium in order to bring on cardiac arrests so that he could reanimated them and appears the great

lifesaving hero again and again and then on a single weekend on who could shift there were 14 resuscitations and 5 tests and yet who was simply transferred to another ward and the clinic lied all the reason why a clinic director a chief physician or a nursing director stays silent is to prevent the reputational damage to the clinic because we all know that that would mean fewer patients coming into our care in believing found. it took several further resuscitations in the new ward for the head of the clinic to decide that hoover had to go now the nurse alleged to have killed 36 people by this point he was dismissed from his post with glowing references he then applied for a job at a clinic in dam and hawes just a few kilometers away we continued to murder on. bated 64 more patients were to die it who could send their. grandfather was one of his victims he underwent a gust to intestinal operation shortly before he was to be released he suddenly

suffered a cardiac arrest so google board. my grandfather was resuscitated by the murder and then 2 or 3 days later the same thing happened again. so he was practically murder trials as. a model. in 2005 who was finally caught red handed as he was about to administer an injection to a patient it was the end of a killing spree unprecedented in germany a nurse who doesn't help sick people but secretly murders them possibly in more than 100 cases it's hundreds often times but in reaching these verdicts we have achieved as much transparency as is legally possible the hope now is that many of the relatives find pieces of law. still the legal proceedings have not yet been completed fellow nurses doctors supervisors who among them was complicit in news his crimes then the stations are ongoing. and before i let you go the
