and peace. let's get a quick check now of some of the other stories making news around the world. puerto rico has a new governor lawyer petra pier luigi was sworn in after a week long protest force his predecessor to step down share the wheezy said that the island senate will vote on whether to confirm his position hundreds of people chanted and rang bells outside the governor's mansion to mark the change of leadership. the king of the indigenous population in new zealand has visited a plot of land that's been occupied by protesters the area near auckland is considered sacred to mari's and protesters are angry at plans to turn it into a housing development that mari king says he visited to try to help the protesters find a solution. europe's historic heat wave has now hit greenland with its ice sheets melting at dramatic rates 11000000000 tons of ice melted on wednesday alone the

biggest volume of ice lost in a single day this season scientists say the recent high temperatures have been exacerbated by manmade climate change. to moscow now where opposition protesters are again trying to hold a rally despite an official ban on the event and a sweeping police crackdown on previous marches police deployed a massive force on the ground they say they'll take active measures to prevent any protests from going ahead dozens of people have already been detained including an opposition leader today's planned rally comes a week after russian authorities violently broke up a similar demonstration arresting nearly $1400.00 people protesters are angry that several opposition candidates are banned from standing in upcoming local elections . our correspondent emily sure win is in moscow and she's been

monitoring events there for us so emily what is the current situation in the russian capital. well mari i was standing on one of moscow's boulevards as you can see people are kind of taking a walk along the boulevards which is the plan that the organizers of this rally had announced to get around the fact that this rally is not authorized it's really hard to tell how many people how many protesters are out today in moscow. well because people are simply walking along occasionally you'll see a group of people kind of clapping or you'll see some of the passing cars the thing there are support that's the only way to tell that perhaps these people are taking part in today's protests that is of course one of the many ways that russians in the past few years have found to get a way to get around kind of increasing restrictions on freedom of assembly the police here right next to me is kind of watching quietly but on the squares along

the boulevards we've seen kind of riot police clearing clearing the squares arresting some people and kind of blocking off squares there's certainly a large police presence but in comparison to last week where almost 1400 people were arrested so far quite quiet let's take a look back at the events of last week i spoke to one of the protesters who was arrested at last week's rally. these were images that shocked russia during protests for free and fair moscow city parliament elections nearly 1400 demonstrators were detained a number monitors unprecedented. in was one of them this photo has made him a symbol of the protests. when they arrested me i was trying not to get hurt so i tried not to fall over because they were trying to knock me down onto the

pavement i also didn't want to let them twist my arm they were trying to do that when they were taking me to the police by. moscow officials have since called the police response at the unauthorized rally professional and reasonable monitors say the behavior of the author already is in the upcoming protests is hard to predict. our expectations are often wrong we expect a crackdown and then it doesn't happen we expect the police to night calmly and then the crackdown on protesters. hasn't decided yet whether he'll take to the streets he already expects to receive a fine for disturbing public order at the last rally and is weighing up the risks of potentially being arrested again. when it comes to the demonstrators it doesn't look like they will calm down so easily and even if there is a crackdown at the protests there will be a protest vote in september people will vote for anyone but the candidates connected to the ruling party. this week several

protesters have received criminal charges but despite the recent crackdown thousands have announced their attendance for this week's rally on social media and the opposition is already pushing for yet another rally the week after that. all right emily those are some very disturbing images of a very brutal police crackdown last week. as you mentioned nearly 1400 people were detained back last week are police gearing up for a similar crackdown today. well it's hard to know there are reports that dozens of people even up to 100 have been already arrested but it's hard to tell right here on the boulevards what the strategy will be last week we saw in moscow as mayor. kind of saying that the police last week had acted professor professionally they had acted reasonably but. in these team opposition politician

his team who look into kind of corruption in russia as well have seemingly added fuel to the fire 2 days ago they published an investigation into one of moscow's deputy mayors about how she's been selling off apparently city property to to her relatives so that could add fuel to the fire today and of course the opposition is already saying that they are preparing for a rally next week next next. day as well so we'll have to wait and see how this situation develops all right to use emily sure one in moscow we appreciate your reporting. let's turn now to some soccer news and the new bundesliga season is almost upon us here in germany as byron munich and dortmund face off in the season opening super cup today well dortmund are in high spirits after a promising campaign last season they've added firepower to their squad with the
