every weekend for almost 4 months now. let's cross now to correspondent ts building there who is on the ground to tell us what's going on where you're at if you would . yeah as you can see here nothing is going on not much clashes have ended here behind me what you see there is the remains of a barricade that was earlier on fire before the protesters have gathered in a shopping mall just near here they have chanted there for several hours and put up . posters and slogans then at some point there were photos circulating on the net that police was approaching things escalated demonstrators damaged some of the property some of the interior of this small and then and such a bury kids and then they left and outside here they clashed with the police with
1:03 pm
protesters setting up barricades on fire and the police firing tear gas this quickly ended what we're seeing now is a pattern that the protesters gather together they set up barricades there are things that the police to provoke them and once the police advances they quickly disappear and the police tries to run after them to make maybe one or 2 arrests but basically most protesters disappear and then they reassemble in another part of town this is how protests have been going through the past few weeks we hear that there have been other actions involving an orchestra playing for instance or again i mean being done all kinds of individual things taking place you know quite apart from his eye catching scenes are they coordinated. if you ask whether somebody is pulling the strings or whether there's an
1:04 pm
organization behind whether this is somehow organized by somebody then the answer is no but they are of course coordinated people coordinate themselves in internet forums somebody makes a suggestion hey let's do origami they were folding storks as they were saying it is a symbol of hope and peace or somebody just throws up the idea to. pull out all the reservation vouchers from the restaurants the restaurants were somehow accused of being pro china and then they made these ribbons out of these out of these. vultures so there is some kind of spontaneous coordination also somebody throws up an idea or a plan and then they publish it on the on these forums and then people sometimes vote it up and down or down or they just go so there is no centralized organization behind it but there is of course some kind of coordination yeah it sounds like

there's a lot of creativity as well but tell me which is is there 15 on the part of the hong kong public over these disturbances which have gone into their 15th week now. if you look at the numbers of people who attend protests these are going down i think many people who showed up in the beginning are not going anymore not as regularly but this is something you would expect there has been a part of the public is is firmly opposed to these protests these are what we are seeing in polls that have been conducted recently is that. the public overwhelmingly blames police on the violence 70 percent of hong kong as have sat in a recent poll that they think police are using excessive violence while only 40 percent have said that the protesters are using excessive violence is one not mutually exclusive exclusive questions and that trust in the government is very low
1:06 pm
at this moment the government on a on a scale of one to 10 almost half of the participants of this poll gave the government 0 points of trust in this poll so there is maybe not as much active support for the protesters as there has been but the public is still more leaning towards the protesters than the government right and she is billing it from hong kong thanks for that. iran's president has said rouhani has warned of insecurity if foreign forces intervene in the region the american government recently announced it was sending more troops to the gulf in response to recent attacks on a saudi oil sites at a military parade where hani says iran is ready to defend its borders but the country also says it will present a plan for peace at the u.n. general assembly next week. the high point of what iran calls its sacred
