because of your highness. the problems. starts october 11th. this is the news live from berlin demonstrators return to the streets of hong kong even as the government invokes emergency powers thousands of protesters their faces covered come out in defiance of a ban on face masks the government of the chinese territory has threatened to take a hard line to 4 months of protesting not and also on the program iran's top cleric calls for an end to violence in his country on both sides as anticorruption
5:01 pm
demonstrations continue as many as 42 people have now been killed in the. i'm sure that increasing number of refugees arriving in greece through turkey d.w.b. ports from inside europe's biggest refugee children are growing up in tents and shipping containers. i'm full gale welcome to the program thousands of protesters have returned to hong kong streets despite emergency powers invoked by the government many are wearing the sort of face masks that will be banned from midnight local time that's just under an hour from now protesters could face up to a year in jail for wearing full or partial face coverings. the government must act now that's the message from hong kong's embattled leader kerry lam she said the
5:02 pm
territory is facing a serious crisis she invoked laws last used in the 960 s. and i would say that we are now in rather extensive and serious public danger. it is essential for us to stop violence and restore calmness in society as soon as possible we hope that the new legislation can help us to achieve this objective. but so far there's been defiance on the streets protesters determined to stay resolute in the face of what they see as another curb on their rights. even before lamb spoke protest leader joshua wong said he was worried that his city is on the path to a police state. but i strongly or urge the international community aware on the de facto martial law might imply it home soon in the next
5:03 pm
few hours or in the next few days the world must stand with home form so i gaze hong kong tries to be a holy state with martial law. protesters fear if mosques are banned then it will be easier for the authorities to identify them with trust between both sides at rock bottom there are fears that carry lymes band will stoke violence rather than stopping it. straight to hong kong then when we find the double correspondent shot at chelsea to welcome charlotte so it looks as though protesters are ignoring this clamp down. yeah as soon as schools and offices and see this afternoon people took to the streets thousands of people gathered here angry at that ban most of them wearing face masks still the people that we spoke to said that they planned on wearing them well past that
5:04 pm
curfew that facemask deadline they told us that simply that we cannot enact that ban on everybody who is here and that they would still where it's cost midnight the hours now counting down to that deadline now people are still on the streets at the moment a short time ago there were people gathered in the central shopping district police firing tear gas to clear those protesters tension really is ramping up here as we get later into the evening as we get closer to that deadline we've seen a lot of people vandalizing shops believed to have approached beijing and he protested sentiment china mobile for example we watched protesters break into that the shop completely vandalized i phones brookins shouted on the floor this is turning into another very violent evening here in hong kong and so the imposition of these emergency regulations to the people by surprise and how are they reacting to them. well for weeks people have been
5:05 pm
saying that this could happen these emergency laws could been popped could be possible there's been a lot of anxiety about the prospect of that the real fear is that this point just end with a face mask ban that this could continue could be a sort of a slippery slope towards curfews and and the authorities here being able to pass emergency laws without going through a pawn without going through legislation that's got people here very nervous and very angry they already feel like this situation is out of control particularly after what happened on choose day then a police officer opened fire on a protester at close range shooting him in the chest that protester is in a stable condition but people furious at what was a massive escalation in violence on the streets here now they're seeing this face mosque ban as well and for a lot of people here just to put that into context that is that is no small thing it's very easy to get caught up in tear gas volleys even if you'll know when near
5:06 pm
the front lines police open fire on crowds of people of all ages for taking part in any on authorized protests a concern is of course that the tear gas is obviously very painful for people caught up in it but also their identities often must by these face mawson people are concerned that this mosque could be the ban could be a slippery slope into into much more serious emergency tools that there must be concerns that this latest protest is going to ask you guys into violence are going tonight do that demonstrates the still claim that this is a peaceful protest. well of course the images that we're seeing across social media the images that are going around the world prove that this isn't always a peaceful protest there are a number of process as you say that peaceful measures peaceful protests have what they want to make that message heard by taking to the streets destroying at the shops as we've seen it's nice and of course some of the violent clashes that we've seen with police as well people acknowledge that there are some there are
5:07 pm
a minority among the people take to the streets who are prepared to take more violent messes measures to to make their voices heard challah tells them in hong kong thank you. not 2 more protests this time in iraq where i'm to government to protest is about on the streets for a 4th day in defiance of curfews on the pill for calm by the prime minister security forces fired live ammunition and demonstrators in baghdad since tuesday dozens of people have been killed and hundreds more injured in protests across the country the demonstrators are demanding job opportunities improve public services and an end to corruption in a televised speech through one of his representatives of the country's most influential shia cleric ayatollah ali sistani has urged the government to listen to the protesters demands. so let's get more on this from german the iraqi journalist. who's in the studio in bonn welcome who's
5:08 pm
organizing these protests. that is a problem actually there is no organizer this is a spontaneous movement that came into life after the situation deteriorated we have to remember what the prime minister did in the last 2 months he was a planet to remove those excesses of vendettas over the streets on the sidewalks and that deprived many young people of their chances to work their jobs their only jobs for our vendors the problem in iraq nothing after the age of easy this is that many people many young people had chances to work as contract ups to fight is this now they don't have the chance and they have to face their life and the prime minister on his side the stock is trying to reconstruct the country to reorganize order in the country which deprived they are people from their chances to live that
5:09 pm

conditions the mental condition of the children are degree day to day by day this is daily life inside a refugee camp packed with more than $10000.00 people a result of the resurgence and c crossings to lesbos the trip from the turkish coast to this beach takes about 2 hours and more migrants are making this journey than at any other point since 2016 when the european union signed a deal with turkey to prevent them from coming now with thousands waiting on this and other greek islands for their asylum applications to go through people here tell us the situation has become a crisis a situation that worries younus master again as he is the. mayor of moria the small town right next to the camp. like many people living here he feels lesbos is being left to fend for itself. if it up in another shame. europe should show more solidarity and support greece with this problem greece alone isn't capable of dealing with this large number of refugees or the e.u.
5:16 pm
member states have to help take in people and at the same time increase the pressure on turkey to stick to their side of the agreement if it was the issue of one europe where if you pull that off your. back in the camp i'm on says he doesn't want to be a burden on anyone all he wants is a safe place to live. and he hopes to find his place before winter. most of greece's new arrivals reach the country via turkey which has itself given sanctuary to more than 3 and a half 1000000 syrian refugees but turkey is now threatening to limit its aid to the e.u.'s part of an agreement to curb the flow of refugees unless you are provides more financial assistance and your delegation including german interior minister jose hoffa has met with top turkish officials with growing tension over the migration crisis. on the shores of the aegean sea more migrants are trying to reach the e.u. via turkey than at any point since the e.u. and turkey struck a deal in 2016 ankara agreed to effectively close the route to migrants in return
5:17 pm
for up to 6000000000 euro of which 2600000000 has been dispersed now german interior minister hosting who is on a 2 day tour to turkey in greece to discuss the next steps ankara has threatened to quote open the gates to europe if the e.u. doesn't give more support yes indeed for spirit we are ready to help turkey wherever possible and support the country in various possibilities. for she can move. turkey wants more financial support especially for a possible safety zone in northern syria where president added one wants to accommodate another 2000000 refugees fleeing syria. who played out in south florida we fulfil all obligations under the agreement with the e.u. both on humanitarian grounds but also out of fidelity to the steel but we expect the same from the e.u. has. begun to be. the project on the turkish syrian border is being hotly
5:18 pm
debated with fears that the worsening situation in it live in northern syria could put even more pressure on the border region german interior minister told anchor that he would address turkey's concerns in his talks with the incoming head of the european commission. as i live on the lion in brussels 4 years on since the migration crisis the e.u. capital is growing uneasy with the prospect of every pizza not rio of 2015. can tell us more about the state of the e.u. to my current deal is a european migration analyst and director of the european stability initiative think tank welcome to d.w. but where do you see the biggest holdup of the biggest block in this e.u. turkey migration deal well since the beginning the single biggest problem has been the inability to move people off the island quickly following an asylum decision
5:19 pm
the idea was never that people should stay on the islands for long the idea was that people come from turkey apply for asylum you have a decision within a few weeks and then you determine who can be returned to turkey and who can be or must be sent to greece if you can't make a decision within a few weeks if it takes 2 years then people either stuck on the islands for 2 years or you take them without a decision to the mainland which just encourages many others to come just to be clear you're saying it's taking 2 years to get a decision to process these people or look at the basic numbers greece last year the greek asylum system received almost 70000 applications and took 36000 decisions which is quite a lot. but just in the last month you had $10000.00 people arrive the island so if you now arrive on the island as an afghan or as a nigerian as any rocky you apply for asylum it will take you yeah a year until you get an interview it will take you and other year until you have an
5:20 pm
appeal and so the idea of pushing greece to do it by itself is a nonstarter it will not work what you need is a coherent e.u. policy jointly processing these applications and that's that was the ultimate expert just to be clear that the burden of doing this processing is in that's entirely down to greece there is no e.u. assistance to just move these people through no that's what makes it difficult you have and it has to be like this greece has the primary responsibility it's the law is where it is a great law and yes it's greece that takes responsibility but the way the e.u. has supported greece on till now. through sending individual caseworkers through an organization based in malta the e.u. asylum support office and the way greece has requested the support until now has not worked it has not made decisions faster so what we've been advocating strongly i talk to the greek ministers i talk to officials him berlin is get together the 6
5:21 pm
or 7 best asylum agencies in europe which have the experience with the greeks work out a detailed plan and say if from the 1st of november 250 people arrive each day how many caseworkers translators appeals panels do you need on the island to make a credible decision within 8 weeks and those who are not on the island you will not be able to process them move them to the mainland the moment as soon as you can but the moment you have a new system to make sure that you don't have an evident of new people coming so when turkey's president says that this deal is no working he's got a point well if greece manages in 8 months this year to send back a 100 people if any afghan for example gets in the boat and goes to greece knows that there is a 0 percent chance of being returned to turkey even if you do not get protection in the end then the techs say wait why should we promise to take people back but if you can't process them why is it our problem to send more police with
