ongoing insurgency has been displaced almost 2000000 people and left thousands more dead. than fled or in sports we visit the home town of even banal in colombia the freshly crowned through it of france which has caused cycling fever in his native country. i'm rebecca riches welcome to the program hong kong has say more violence today as police crackdown on pro-democracy demonstrators defying an official ban to blockade the city center police fired tear gas and rubber bullets as the protesters near the chinese government's office in downtown hong kong last night dozens were arrested and many more injured the march as a part of weeks long campaign demanding greater democracy in hong kong and autonomy from mainland china. after saturday's clashes protesters took to the

streets of hong kong again this time to demonstrate against the police's use of tear gas. i think we need to have a protest issues so that we are strongly against these kinds of without it you know we need them to resist respond to. respond to our demands leading to mock received activists long told d.w. the protests have now gone beyond opposition to the controversial extradition bill that sparked them now it's the summer off this call in hand to beijing and hong kong government last week we experienced pro beijing gangs and mobs attacked ordinary citizen yesterday we experienced whole riot police beaten on his fro protester in sight railway station no matter probation gangs of polish for suffering the interest of beijing they are just. hoping to silence the voice of hong kong before. the demonstrations began peacefully with anger against the police

only adding to the litany of complaints against hong kong's government. people at 5 o. are really on happy with what has been happening in the last week they are unhappy with the. police's response they are they want an investigation. and no i can say no to go. with or thorough he's unwilling to show restraint protesters now fear that hong kong's freedoms are at stake as beijing exerts ever more influence over the territory but protestors are unbowed. calls for democracy will never stop we will continue our fight a fight that looks set to go on with neither side willing to back down. now for more on this i'm joined now by data we reported cherry chan we've been seeing an increasing degree of violence up from both sides in these protests both

from the police and also more radicalization from the protest is why do you see this going yes we can see the tension between the police and the protests assist really ricing now the protesters almost say the police as the enemy so you can see that the police is using way more false for example gas and rubber bullets is like unarmed like now in every demonstration in hong kong and but on the protests aside you also see they're hearing out they become more defensive and sometimes they would even throw things at the police just the things that they pick up on the ground and sometimes they would even pick up the tear gas as fired by the police and throw them back at the police so you can really see that the commentators in this getting ready to question him ramping up quite a bit so one of the key figures joshua wang one of the protest key figures told me today that the calls for the. longer see will never stop what exactly is the movement's end game here so we can see that now the protests is way more about just

of. you now they have the protesters have way more demands for example they want the resignation of the chief executive kerry they also want an independent inquiry into the use of force by the police and ultimately like what joshua long said they really asked for democracy in the 1st suffrage and then what about beijing i mean i'm sure beijing is not liking this at all how long do you think it's going to be until the chinese government comes in and says we're going to take a more active role in that is actually today beijing's top of the in hong kong they just said they will need to press tomorrow to respond to all these protests in the past 2 months it is expected that beijing will take a really tough stance against these protests they were framed as very violent and unlawful demonstrations but then. a lot of people in hong kong also hear

rumors that if the protesters do don't stop in the coming future it's very likely that the beijing would even send me to hong kong to stop these. people from all segments of the society are joining in these protests right yeah actually just today we hear that. government workers they would launch a rally next week to voice their opinion to their government basically they're false and so we can't even hear a very strong voice from inside the government so this is really significant thanks so much for coming in and dissecting that for us. let's take a look at some of the other stories making news around the world iran has condemned the u.k.'s plans for a europe led naval mission in the persian gulf calling it a hostile message tensions between the 2 countries have been high since british forces captured an iranian ship suspected of smuggling oil to syria the royal navy's since deployed a warship to the gulf to ensure the safe passage of british vessels. russia is

a funeral where they were gunned down by a gang of militants riding on motorbikes and in vans. and the tell us more i'm on the line joins me an echo in la gus he's on the phone sell it what else can you tell us about this latest attack. yes well as you mentioned the attack took place at a funeral in the not far away from i could agree that for a couple of former saints and that's one of them not very much about the specifics of the attacks but according to local citizens you so much as several people were killed at the funeral on saturday and others died while taking down the attackers. but otherwise that was for been repeated attacks but so far i'm over the past few months and weeks and only last week 6 aid workers from the n.g.o.s against hunger were kidnapped and there was also a refugee camp which is attacked last week borno is the epicenter of boko haram insurgency and the ongoing violence has forced huge numbers of people to flee from

their homes so i want to come back to the listeners have a look at this report and give you a bit more information on the refugees. around 12000 displaced people live in this makeshift camp it opened just 4 months ago in marjah glory in the northeast of nigeria. since the start of the year more than 100000 people have been forced from their homes fleeing the violence of boko haram. fatima flood 5 years ago with a husband and 2 children. like it now i'm in god's hands if peace is restored one day and i'm told i can go back home i'll go back to it immediately the time goes by and the situation isn't changing so there's no way i can go home. over the past 10 years boko haram has attacks have displaced nearly 2000000 people despite international aid supplies are scarce and shelter is precarious. but the

government is encouraging people to return home as soon as the security allows abraham tried to go home last year after 3 months there he had to come back to my degree. i just heard that my lab is in rick's and my children. because no quality education local studies you know no no no no no it's too much so you have to go on but. while he continues to wait for the situation to improve he's living in a friend's room. is where we live so we do welcome what my wife and 4 children i'm just like i'm little in the cage. there because you are sharing your home world from when you're 6 is really easy. around my degree the boko haram attacks continue 10 years of violence has left 27000 people dead. so as well as we saw in that report many people have been displaced from this insurgency how

realistic is it that these people will be able to return home any time soon. well at the moment appearance is very unlikely as certainty at the set was struck about 10 years ago when they launched and when they said they were. launching a war on the government a bit of the reject any kind of weapon into anything to patients and those who have been talking which means best civilian population has really been the target of many to be the tax and both the government and the person who hari and the form of government also weren't able to bring the uncertainty and the under control and we all for example members of the kidnapping of over 220 goals in 2014 from chibok which called the national outcry and when you see about half of these girls have each been released yet so happy people are trying to get to that families so there's a lot of uncertainty. in the north of nigeria them one about neighboring countries
