passengers on the move departure boards no longer a sea of red cancellations the signs of the crippling protest still visible on disc one to travelers to. stop the protests but at the end of the day we're going to stop the blind protesters because we're the ones caught in the middle of the sandwich. vent you know arm already 2 days late getting to where i'm going to be. that's costing me money the airport authority was not visible to all the condos were simply closed all gone you closed the condos. hours earlier riot police clashed with protesters a mob cornered one officer snatching his box on. the floor he drew his gun remarkably no one was killed. elsewhere the captured this man believed to be an undercover policeman. he was kicked and beaten

. eventually made it wheeled him to safety. authority said the violence amounted to torture knowledge a number of protesters were surrounding and attacking police officers and vehicles some were even pointing laser beams in the negotiation carter officer who was trying to defuse the situation and help extricate the injured visitors. through a course at your it seems threatening the safety of everyone on site now though concerns of a much bigger conflict these images appear to show chinese military build up in a stadium just over the border in shenzhen that is consistent with mainland media reports and raises the specter of an unprecedented confrontation on the streets of hong kong. and we're joined here in the studio now by diddy kirsten tallow journalist an expert on china and hong kong welcome to the program we had this

apology from the protesters for the disruption at the airport what do you make of that you know that was a really good step i think because it shows a thoughtfulness reflectiveness about what's going on and i think it also shows a way towards some kind of a compromise now with the protesters also saying ok this is a really terrible situation but if they make a step forward perhaps the government could consider also coming a step forward and this is this is the only way that this is going to be resolved through compromise at this point however we have seen from the chinese side though you know stronger rhetoric coming from them they now say that these protests are near terrorist acts what do you make of the potential chances that we can see this further defend into a more descent excuse me into a more violent situation you know well this is our huge fear as hong kong is and i can i have to say it's absolutely terrifying for a lot of people the sort of the i mean the militia on the streets i think that the

rhetoric is frightening it's designed to be frightening that doesn't mean it doesn't mean anything it does mean something but one has to simply say we're not there yet everyone just stay calm and i think again both sides need to stop making compromises beijing is raising more and more red flags that's clear through the language in the language matters a lot but there is still some room to go the international community has been putting on pressure for those compromises to be made german chancellor angela merkel commenting today calling for a peaceful resolution to the situation we also have the united states warning about swift consequences if china in terms of violent crackdown how important are these international response is this china really care at the end of the you know i think they do care and a lot of people will say that they don't they're going to do what they're going to do because it's a tough regime. it's a one party state statistic tator ship however i think china does care about its international image about how it's perceived by the west i think it really wants to

be seen as you know civilized now sending the army and isn't particularly civilized frankly and you know it happened in beijing in $1809.00 it was a total disaster for its image for decades to they really want that happening again in hong kong exactly 30 years later and just as she really want to be seen as a regime that basically subdue cities by force of arms that's the question and i think they are prepared to do it if they feel they have to but i really really wish hope and pray that we don't get there and that compromise is the way forward and there i see the hong kong government as having a lot of work to do because they need to compromise as well these fundamental demands of the protesters were actually promised in the basic law i.e. grace of voting rights constitutional changes towards self more self governance the rights to control their own life and solve problems on the ground and then not being held you know beijing and hong kong government keep pushing it away and away and kicking the can down the road there's a lot of compromise that could be reached there if the hong kong government was prepared to do that so much at stake here and we see the sense of resolve resolve

on both sides really holding firmly to their positions due to christian taught load journalist an expert on china and hong kong thank you thank you. and now we head to italy where a technical report has shown that parts of the road bridge that collapsed in general a year ago had not been maintained for 25 years the structure collapsed in heavy rain killing 43 people the local prosecutor said that the ongoing investigation would show whether lack of maintenance was instrumental in causing the collapse the report came out as people gathered to remember the people who died in this tragedy . at 11 36 am exactly the time when the motor on the bridge collapsed one year ago genoa stood still commemorating the victims among those taking part in the ceremony were at least president's argument that allah and the cities met. really the damage he's ready for action today we stand here on the new construction site to commemorate the victims we look is young but we also look to the future and
