rise after delhi is drug to tighten its control over the muslim majority region. certain like the 2 are full of. reports from el paso a city mourning those killed in a weekend of mash. gas what to do what concerns of aris isn't and far right extremism in german football one lower division team has fired its captain and a top flight bundesliga side to take action today against its chairman. hello and welcome i'm on the thought she my great to have your company. china has issued a stark warning to protest says a government spokesman in beijing has warned protesters the punishment is coming and they should not underestimate the strength of the central government home go
4:02 pm
police also announce of they had arrested more than 148 people the largest single day tally since demonstrations began 2 months ago here's some of what beijing spokesman had to say today. we want to warn the handful of violent criminals and the maddening hands behind them. that there is a play with fire will perish by. while the punishment will only be a matter of time. now let's go straight to journalist even lines in hong kong stephen strong words there from the chinese spokes person so what could this punishment mean do you think is china planning some movement is it likely to intervene militarily china has a very large military garrison. right we saw today in sions and which is the town
4:03 pm
on the border next the home called the police force staged a very very large anti riot exercise which was clearly aimed to remind people in hong kong that it would be difficult for those to be mobilized the only other one china is we have confidence in the hong kong based and of this what that means and we are saying is there are more people being arrested they're being charged with quite serious crimes and i think moment china thinks maybe that would be the way of deterrent people from going on the streets so you say at the moment it will not intervene directly would draw on the use authorities in hong kong to do the need for. this is the simple fact of the matter is that if the people's liberation army is mobilized the comments are called this is such an enormous and serious blow
4:04 pm
to the international character of hong kong to the very stability of the city it would be a decision that would have to be taken very very carefully because once the people's liberation army had stars is exercises given hong kong much of what we know about hong kong would be over and i think even the authorities are very angry about what's happening in hong kong at the moment recognize the gravity of going to those extent. and just even a what impact do you think this morning from beijing it is intended as a warning what impact will it have on the protesters in hong kong well you now have an enormous enormous i really can't stress that to too much level of general support for the protests i mean we saw this unprecedented situation in which 2000000 people that's a quarter of the population were out on the streets in protest but there was this hardcore mainly very young people who i think of the moment developing
4:05 pm
a sort of marxism complex i mean they say when you speak for them we're prepared to die for this we're going to stay here as long as it states there's quite a small minority but they're very good in there they're all the time they're on demonstrations practically every day of the week so i don't think they're going to be deterred from that but whether the big mass of public support for the protests will somehow fade away at the moment that's a possibility i don't think it's a live possibility. stephen winds in hong kong thank you very much for that update from there. so as we just heard the protesters are determined and they are defiant there's been no the angry night of demonstrations on the streets of hong kong our correspondent seana cho simply was in the midst of the protests and sent us this report. was the scene
4:06 pm
as we arrived the chaos begins. the good fight. for. the world the tough tough tough tough tough. tough out there with her book on how the dial that alone. is the take as clear as protesters slowly return. us among them dozens of local residents. many joining charles demanding police retreat. furious bystanders watching almost stunned at the scene unfolding in this normally quiet neighborhood the police call for more backup as the mood once again tense dog was the showdown begins the was the over the top that was probably far from about the no further than god
4:07 pm
god god god god god on that front door was the each side waiting for the other to make the 1st move. those threatening to tip this standoff over the edge. close to midnight the police may be. sending people scattering. with the blockade cleats theorists begin. to feel that way if this is a residential area one woman screams people here weren't even wearing face masks to fight down 7. the. mall protesters a sweatshop is the police round on the struggle it's the only. one he wanted it to end this way ok. those arrested face up to 10 years in prison
4:08 pm
if they're charged with riots in the it's a heavy price to pay for a night on the streets the good the good the. turning up the political firestorm over kashmir kicking up as in divorce the region special constitution status in this hindu nationalist led government has hailed the abrogation of article $370.00 as a historic moment but pakistan's prime minister imran khan has said he considered approaching the un security council over the issue only of pakistan's army said if you go to any extent to support the contested territory in this move has spiked tensions between the nuclear neighbors. this ng or on the streets of pakistan here nationalist supporters furious at events in kashmir call for revenge against india and its leader prime minister narendra modi lose. this is all pression human rights violations have been carried out all peace loving people of
4:09 pm
the world must stand by us we demand that the pakistan government and army take bold steps in response on board to step in and accuse of. jubilation for hindu nationalists and they say scrapping article $370.00 which gave kashmir its special status corrects historic wrong. for the opposition and critics it sets a dangerous precedent we believe that the position although on article $370.00 odd by them of the government is basically a constitutional cool this is an attack on the constitution and this is this amounts to bunning the pages which political speech to the rest of india. the disputed territory is now on lockdown. authorities have ordered thousands of indian and foreign tourists to get out major roads are sealed off and a curfew is in place all communications severed.
4:10 pm
the kashmir region has long been a bone of contention between india and pakistan they have fought 2 wars over it both claim the region in full but each control only part of it china also claims a section. the revoking of its special status gives delhi increased power and influence in the territory but it's feared this could fuel the insurgency there which has already claimed thousands of lives over 3 decades. pakistan's government has condemned in the as move calling it illegal and vowing counter measures the united nations is urging calm. we are following with concern the tense situation in the region we're also aware of reports of restrictions on the indian side of kashmir and we urge all parties to exercise restraint. but it's feared prime minister modi has just reignited uncertainty in
4:11 pm
the world's most follicle nuclear flashpoint. that we now have drawn. from. shows in pakistan a strongly condemned india's move and especially joint session has fallen has been courting islam on what was said that. when the session started there were no protests by opposition politicians the session then had to be adjourned there's no statement as yet the opposition politicians for protesting against the fact that the government resolution did not even mention the scrapping all. 370 so they wanted to be changed this session is likely to continue tomorrow and that's been expect a clear statement. that the indian part of kashmir is in complete knocked on right now and there's very little information coming from that the pakistani foreign ministry says it can exercise all possible options to block india's move to book
4:12 pm
article 370 what are its options. they're primarily talking about diplomatic options so one could be that the when seek. the u.n. security council to get involved in this it doesn't look likely the pakistani foreign minister is currently in jeddah saudi arabia where he's meeting organization of islamic countries trying to shore up support if we go by pastrana we're not expecting a very strong stance there. will try to play this up but the prime minister has already called leaders of turkey and malaysia will probably call others as well but we know for some time now that the world isn't really interested in kashmir they only care about kashmir when the 2 countries are on the brink of a nuclear war but a device is not on the on the horizon for most leaders and we also know
4:13 pm
that before doing this the indian government took into confidence major capitals of the world so the national security adviser of india got in touch with washington with other countries so they know that india is doing this and why pakistan may be stunned by this. kind of watching it with alarm they might make some rhetorical comments but we're not really expecting the world to get really involved in this. from demi's desk thank you very much for that assessment. let me now bring you up to date with some other stories making news around the world south korea says north korea has launched 2 more missiles its 4th test in less than 2 weeks the short range missiles fell into the sea of the ben insular east coast in an online statement north korea protested against a joint military exercise being held by the u.s. and south korea. japan is marking 74 years since the u.s.

us they say it's not what the united states is all about. and the victims of the shooting not what's being mourned across the border 7 mexicans were among those who lost their lives authorities have said they're investigating the rampage is an anti immigrant hate crime el paso has long been linked with the city's sister city across the border mexico's. while this city has become a magnet for migrants hoping to eventually seek asylum in the u.s. but for many it's become a very difficult and anxious wait. many of the emergency shelters on the mexican side of the border are full but people continue to arrive the u.s. is sending migrants back here across the border until the asylum applications are processed. this is the detention center in el paso asylum seekers describe what
4:19 pm
i've experienced there not only something i thought they searched everything and touched us everywhere a woman next to me told the border guard to stop touching her but they just continued booking you can see it. even removed her senator e pads to see if she was hiding something that may mean even though men were present. think vietnam base. emily is 18 years old she would only talk to us after she was certain that no one was watching she seen a lot she fled guatemala on foot then continued by train in may she arrived in the us and was separated from my family because she's already considered an adult you know me a bit of this my mother said no that's my daughter you can't take her away they answered by saying it's a different process for her yeah you want my mother to tears and simply took me away anyway i didn't know what to do. during. you know even after
4:20 pm
being sent back to mexico emily and her mother can't stay in the same facility emily now lives in the border city of ciudad juarez along with thousands of other asylum seekers they're waiting for their appointment with u.s. immigration chicken pox is going around the center and despair is everywhere many give up and leave voluntarily. anyone wanting to enter the u.s. legally has to put their name on a waiting list in ciudad juarez alone around 5000 people have registered few of the new was to silence seekers even get an appointment with u.s. authorities. i mean but it's amazing when i think the entire system is unfair the migrants have to wait for their appointment here in mexico and they're ultimately rejected that's what happens in 9 out of 10 cases anyway. the sound of sobbing echoes through the emergency center of your mother's cellar is 33 years old she left honduras with the children and now finds herself completely alone. give me
4:21 pm
your only help it's unbearable having to stay here my whole body hurts my back my arms and they just give me pain killers nothing else. but know of you is not alone. many people here say that the conditions are terrible the realities of migration on both sides of the border are brutal. news now from the wonder sport the women's league a club shocker is expected to decide today whether to take action against chairman clement tony s. after he made comments that were widely condemned israel the billionaire has led the club's board since 2001 and he's apologized for the comments but many consider the apology self-serving when german footballer facing increasing scrutiny on the question of race 20 s could soon be forced out. with less than 2 weeks to go
4:22 pm
until the start of the bundesliga season shall have a crisis to deal with that's a discussion about climate change policy last week club chairman clemons tourney's suggested tax money should be spent on building power plants in africa adding quote then the africans would stop chopping down trees and stop producing kids when it gets dark those comments have received much public criticism including from the shock a fan initiative a supporters group that has worked with the club to fight against racism in football for over 25 years. and then of course the total ought to be a large number of people who have contacted to share our views namely that the comments are massively racist zuzana frank must be removed from his position at the club. i consider its humans turn
4:23 pm
intolerable for clemens tourney's to continue in his role at the club which is a high profile and important role of. fans in guessing cation are divided on the issue you have 10 years future at the club the consequence and so shouldn't be any consequences they should just move on it was a slip of the tongue it wasn't meant in a bad way disc of mind in this. one is our games out of the question and intolerable in my view 10 years has to be removed and if shark a doesn't do that then i would probably quit as a member because that's not ok they also garnish the decision now rests with shark is on a very board. now max man from the devon split stance is here has more of the story welcome max tell us more about the shall commuting rich is today that's going to take up this issue isn't it yes there's huge pressure on the honorary board who are meeting today and shocker but. it's been
4:24 pm
a tricky one really because a lot of people have listened to the apology and said we should accept the policy for people like a sporting director you said he should be given another chance many many others feeling differently as we saw in the report as well the fans are somewhat split but many for michel good players with african roots of come out against attorneys and said it's just not ok this is not a normal club or that a meeting to say the honorary board is somewhat like an ethics commission that's made up of 2 judges vica and 2 university professors all of whom have been longstanding members of the club one of whom is actually represented turn use in court so could complicate things a little bit and they have sanctions available to them anything from a verbal warning to a suspension to dismissal from office i suspect they will either suspend him or perhaps ask him to resign ok so we have to wait and see but another story xenophobia and racism in football came to speak and it was in the eastern german
4:25 pm
city of chemists what happened yes it's a 3rd division club and they have parted ways with captain daniel fun over his links to neo nazi groups and on saturday he was injured so he watched the game from the stands which is quite typical for a captain to do however he was sat together with leaders of the far right who you can see and he's a repeat offender he's done a few of these things in the past we can take a look at him celebrating a goal back in march where he collects t. shirts. printed with support your local who was. produced by the group who hooligans nazis racists he apologized back then he's had a few of these incidents come up in him and always said oh it's a misunderstanding i apologize the club have now come out and said these apologies are fos we were. wrong to trust them and of course kemet embroiled again and again with far right ties not just the club the city to last august the city saw 2 days of far right violence and the clubs clubs fan groups were seen as instrumental in
4:26 pm
coordinating those and the question then is that i mean this incident symptomatic of a larger problem in german football i would say not necessarily because i think it's a localized issue a lot of it tends to happen predominantly in the former east of germany and also the lower leagues seem to have more of a prevalent connection and in the fan cultures with right wing activism in the opposite leagues for instance the bundesliga there's a very positive fan culture and oddly enough some of it is more typically associated with the left of the political spectrum so i think it's definitely prevalent in the lower leagues of german football clubs like candidates who have sent mixed signals out in the past have to send very clear messages this is a step in the right direction right we have to wait and see where that goes back many philosophy that says thank you very much. you're watching dude i mean he's coming up ahead dane shows on the rise up to in this cropping of kashmir special status the way pockets song react and get
