or who already say the scale of the disaster is unprecedented in the clean up will cost billions but they still don't know where the oil is coming from. and why is this man collecting elephant dung in south africa a clue to make a drink that is often served with tonic ice and lemon. i'm going to home free you could join me across the german capital festivities are underway marking 30 years since the fall of the berlin wall on that historic night the 9th of november 1989 thinkable happened east germany's communist regime opened the border the announcement allowed its citizens to safely cross to the west for the 1st time in 3 decades in all those years crossing without the mission was often fatal hundreds of people were killed trying. to escape the country but with the

berlin wall down friends and family could finally reunite without fear paving the way for the to germany's to do the same not long after. well for more on the celebrations this week let's talk to our reporter david leavitt's who is out and about in berlin for us david where are you and why. hey helen i'm in front of the good symon the church and what was communist east berlin and i'm here because this church played a very important role in the days that led up to the wall following and this week is really all about not just the wall itself falling but all of the events all of the people all of the places that led up to that historic event and they did seem in a church is one of them because this is one of the few places that the opposition could meet and could discuss all kinds of topics in the time leading up to the fall of

the berlin wall they could talk about they could talk about politics they could talk about the environment even but particularly tracing the days before the ball the fall of the berlin wall what happened here exactly 30 years ago as there was a concert there was a big tovan concert his 3rd symphony and at the end the director the conductor stood up and he said the wall must go and then there was a spontaneous spontaneous protest of the concert goers leaving the church and going out into the streets now that wasn't the only event that took place here at the church let me put that into context for you for weeks leading up to the fall of the wall there were vigils candlelight vigils a sea of candles actually if you can imagine just in front of the church and where i'm standing now for weeks with people coming together to raise awareness about protesters who had been imprisoned by the east german regime and that went on for

weeks it started with just about 50 people in the few 1st few days and then that grew to the thousands so why don't we take a look back at what happened here they get so many church 30 years ago. in october $989.00 think of so many church in what was then east berlin it became the center of the revolution communist east germany was celebrating its 40th anniversary and there was still rousing applause for the country's leaders but at the same time the streets were slowly filling up with protesters. and. east german police and members of the country's notorious intelligence service brutally beat the demonstrators. on this night thousands some of them wounded fled into the safety of the church there were fears that the church would be storm. but the police didn't intervene a new wind was blowing from the east under mikhail gorbachev moscow was no longer

willing to back the use of force against demonstrators the protest movement based in the guest them in a church was allowed to continue with candles courage and nonviolent protests these demonstrators paved the way for the peaceful revolution and the fall of the wall. and david clearly such a historic place but tell us what is happening there today. well in just a little bit when the when it gets darker outside there are going to be projections on to the church of images of back then the people surrounded by candles the protest movements the peaceful protest movement i should say that came out of this church and i just talked to the pastor of the search a little while ago and he really believes that the the church played a really important role in keeping the revolution peaceful now they're also going

to be a lot of people here for quite a big celebrity patti smith the dwyane of punk rock the godmother some say of punk rock will be here giving a concert inside the church so we're expecting a lot more people behind me in the hours to come all right david leavitt's at picquet 70 church in berlin thanks a lot. and now some of the other stories making news around the world saw feiss in lagos nigeria all packing a far to huge market shopkeepers have been throwing goods from upper floors and trying to battle the flames while fire engines struggle to reach the scene. the european court of justice has ruled the opponent broke in you know by lowering the retirement age of judges the european commission had challenge the punishment or alleging it involved gender discrimination it undermined the judiciary is independence to punish government can now choose judges to replace those who offer

history but one that's hard to fully assess from the air or by satellites brazilian authorities say it's impossible to tell how much oil is likely to come ashore and no one's sure who's responsible brazilian president joy about sonora says it's the fault of the greeks like oil tanker and he's asked interpol to investigate but also removed environmental safeguards for these stablish. executive order in a group got to read. several 100 of the bills in all further ormont. and one of those committees was exactly the committee to deal with. oil spills now brazil's coastal ecosystems its beaches coral a marine life have been devastated. by sea life

won't be able to flourish and grow like it's always been able to and it affects the food chain it's a community of land and sea species here this is a disaster this oil cannot be allowed to remain. the cleanup effort is enormous including government authorities the military and thousands of volunteers because it has to be over $300.00 beaches along 2000 kilometers of coastline must be cleared of crude oil. this disaster with this kind of oil that can't be detected by satellite has never happened before in brazil or in fact anywhere in the world or. brazil now has multiple environmental disasters playing out at once fires in the amazon a burst toxic mining dam. and now this. well tens of thousands of people have again taken to the streets of the capital santiago to demand better social services and to inequality them astray sions began last

month after the government announced a hike in subway fare as the government accused the protesters of damaging the economy but critics say that to future lay and benefiting from its prosperity. sirens tear gas and water cannon tensions once again fled into violent clashes between police and protesters in santiago. the demonstrations have entered the 3rd week of the metro fares has grown into protests over income inequality and poor public services. clashes between police and protesters have left 20 people dead the government's response is i'm good for those demanding change. where protesting against the system in general above all against the problems in the neoliberal system here in chile we've reached a crisis and have noticed that the system cannot handle it anymore you know without

my i actually was considered a latin american success story but economic growth has been accompanied by rising inequality and cooks in social spending. thousands took to the streets on monday to protest against the pension system they say is leaving people shortchanged so much you would argue this government wants to maintain the current pension system. for us this is insulting it's a provocation and that's why people are so angry. at his rally to highlight student debt which is crippling the finances of university graduates. not being able to pay and having to do without things to save money it's never ending in a source of distress. fuelled by a sense of injustice the protests show no sign of abating. now for decades scientists have been predicting that we would see when the war on

cancer but progress has been stubbornly slow and that's because a cancer diagnosis often comes too late when the chain is already well advanced so the major conference on the topic in glasgow in scotland early detection is at the top of the agenda. breast cancer is often diagnosed through my ma graphy but mammograms are often far from conclusive experts have hotly debated whether large scale screening with the high tech method is the best way to detect the disease in its early most treatable stages in the race to improve early prediction oncologists have been looking for biomarkers in blood that indicate the likelihood of developing a wide range of cancers before they break out earlier this year and then announcement criticized by some a team in germany presented a marketable blood test for breast cancer it's india india and it's about liquid biopsy that was biopsied means we are determining a diagnosis via body fluids may lead blood. loot

we now have a blood test that enables us to find out whether there is an indication for a little lift. or the opposite did he see that there's no indication of ilya's itself. now in glasgow new methods in the field where showcased that pushed the boundaries even further one of them as a blood test that might one day predict breast cancer up to 5 years before patients begin to show clinical signs another serving 50000 patients looked at predicting possible risk in ovarian cancer and the earlier the diagnosis the better the chance patients can be healed. well for more i'm joined now by one of the office of that study involving ovarian cancer gough funston from the university of cambridge in the u.k. welcome in simple terms explain to us if you will be potential benefits of blood tests in diagnosing ovarian cancer. so look ters who offer

a simple quick cheap and easy way to investigate women who are bearing cancer in the research which i presented this morning at the n.c. or at conference we form that c. 125 which is a blood test for our incomes or is very useful in investigating women who develop symptoms such as looting don't want him to go to the doctor with those symptoms is useful not setting your eyes a simple cheap and quick of course accuracy is very important paramount until now screening for a very intense hasn't been entirely accurate do blood tests show more promise in that regard screening her environment concert and actually any concert with blood tests is very challenging it's not recommended to present by by the people who produce governments and that's why we've focused in this study on trying to detect

it early in women who have developed symptoms in whom we don't know whether they are incomes or not you know because in this study now i mean for a long time there has been hope that one day we would have a simple effective means such as blood tests available one day but it has taken a long time why is that. you're absolutely right and developing. poorer countries is is challenging the start of in the arm they have to make their way through a series of studies clinical trials and tests to 2 eason's in the majority of tests feel a long way only a few weeks of sins but it isn't who wouldn't but we journeyed to do because we have to shoot these tests were there are there must be a rigorous proof and i suppose what a lot of our viewers are wondering is when do you think a blood test for cancer might become a standard part of

a regular doctor's office check up when can we start benefiting from this. some tests are already in use so the test that we studied is used in where we've already developed symptoms so in the u.k. if a woman goes to her doctor and has a certain symptoms that doctor will work for not test is used in some countries not others. in the screening context in the sense you don't have symptoms that's much more difficult but there are tests that are promising and they're going that closely at the minute. but it could be years or decades before or we see those. in presence of. god funston at the university of cambridge research on your insights. thank you very much. well here's a check now of some other stories making headlines at this hour at least 4 people were killed when security forces opened fire on anti-government protesters in

iraq's southern province of faster this comes a day after 5 people are reported dead in protests in the country's capital baghdad as they called for sweeping political change. the u.s. has formally notified the united nations that is pulling out of the paris climate agreement president trump announced the move 2 years ago that monday was the 1st day that the process could actually start now the u.s. is the only country to quit the deal now majestic animals like this elephant produce huge amounts of something that is almost as majestic at least when we're talking about size but not that nice elephant dung now it's used for many things from fertilizers to fuel but now a south african couple has found a new and well rather novel beast for it our correspondent has the story. lets him sleep is always good to see people's reactions while preparing his didn't tasty after all in the oval is no ordinary gin it's flavored with elephants by.

the. yard is a little bit funny to think that was elephant dung but it's it's good surprisingly good money doesn't need to do next because you know. what makes me relax or feel better about it is all the alcohol about serializing whatever that was inside the down side doesn't really make a big difference to me it tastes good. less and slowly and his wife paula gave a special ingredients for their gin in south africa with the scope. and there is some danger involved a pride of lions watch this with bated breath nearby. but 2 former academics came up with the idea while on stuff. they're in business. terms of grass and

leaves is love is very botanical it's because. they eat all the all this amazing food and they digest so little and the rest of their food is just posh right through their digestive system very quickly and then on the felt floor indeed that doesn't smell too bats. still the park rangers are just getting used to seeing people collect elephant feces. it's still for you a little bit with. some oh. yes yes. we collected about just over 3 of these size bags. and this will be. more we hope about. $4000.00 bottles $6000.00 bottles which

will hopefully get out of. the elephant feces get washed and dried the workshop then it gets steeped in gin for 24 hours just like a tea bag find a product as a premium gin for more than 30 euros per bottle it's a clear success for the gin distillers. it's been crazy so it was it started off as maybe we could do this is a part time thing but we soon realized if we wanted to make it successful and if we if you wanted to grow the business and it had to be a full time job so forth for 2 of us it's a full time job. the spirit makers know hope that the elephant dung infused gin will claim a permanent place on the shelves of south africa's stores and boxes. i personally do really like the taste and it seems a lot of people here are agreeing with me on that you just need to sort of not really think about what ingredient is in the air.

now u.s. president donald trump has owners at this year's wall series champions the washington nationals out the white house the nationals the houston astros in the best of 7 series last week to clinch their major while series title but only 18 of the nationals $25.00 players active roster attended the ceremony shown due to a skip to visit saying politics and divisive rhetoric meant that he would not feel comfortable making the trip. his aide is back in action tonight and 2 german teams will be among those taking to the pitch joining me to tell us more is chris harrington from sports good to see you now and i imagine that for dortmund i mean confidence will be k. how big a role will mentality i guess play in a snatch well yeah when it comes to do it mentality has been an issue just this domestic season in the bonus league you know they had a string of draws they were questioned about it and then marco royce specifically

the cat the for dog meat was very adamant about rejecting the idea and just a question in general so i think they're on the right track for 2 big reasons that how they're playing a performing they not. the current leaders in the but as they go out of the german cup and then their last match you know they had it was their 1st defeat when. it is also quite the feat i think you know considering how the pieces of jelly right now often seems to be firing marco raises a question how did this match but their match tonight against enter is very important they also have their classic averse buyer in following this match but in particular this match 1st answer is important because where they are in the standings very tight entered defeated them in the 1st fixture but this one is back it's acknowledged in a park like the 12th man on the pitch for dortmund we have a preview of the report let's take a look. says believe is a quality union plant has in abundance it was his brace against bill was the i

mentioned lot back that dumped them out of the german cup last week and confidence can be contagious that's why they don't want forward wants his team to come out of the shell when they face in tommy 9 in the champions league. we are a good team we've scored a lot of goals in that business league already. that's mine and i believe that we should respect the defense but as a team we do not have to hind very soon with too much of them to for posting the. needle into milan the italian team place with character and the defense has been tough to break this season but playing in dortmund is always a challenge. and that we have to be very careful and pay close attention it's very important for us we will be playing in an electric atmosphere to go. home support will boost confidence the fans will hope to push their team one step closer to qualifying for the champions league knockout stages. or across the going to put

you on the spot what's your prediction for the match you know i'm going to go with the home side i'm going to go with men they desperately need to win just because how tight it is in the champions league standings we saw some from you and brought in the report you know he's been on fire he scored a brace for by the german cup so james and so in company to win this match or i'm going to write it down and hold you to it let's talk about another german side in action then i'll be like sick that traveling to st petersburg of course i face is that it i mean i've been on far recently do you think they can keep that momentum going in the champions league i think definitely they can and you know for one reason they are in russia but zenith hasn't defeated a german side on their home soil in the last 3 outings and when you consider who is on fire i mean it is on the wall you know behind us he's been on fire they scored 14 goals in their last 2 mouth matches out of those team over himself has netted 5 goals and 5 assists you know i think that momentum is on their side as well because

you know they're on fire right now and i think that considering where they are at the group right now they can make a decisive lead over zenith who trailed in their 2nd right now in the champions league group so you know all my faith is behind the bulls of leipzig fly high and cost and trouble in russia all right chris harrington thanks a lot. well this is news and these are our top stories the european court of justice has ruled that poland broke the e.u. law by lowering the retirement age of judges and assigning a different age to men and women european commission has challenge the polish your alleging it undermined the huge issues independence because the ruling party will be able to appoint a replacement judges. from the iranian president hassan rouhani has said his country will further expand its uranium enrichment operations the step is another violation of the 2015 nuclear deal the us withdrew from the deal last year and
