a route shrouded in tear gas a security forces crackdown on anti-government protests opponents are demanding a new independent leader for the country. and what would christmas feel without the not crack. we go behind the scenes of a production and ballets country of origin russia and meet a rising young star of the renowned the bolshoi as he makes his grand debut. i'm brian thomas great to have you with us search crews have so far failed to find the bodies of the 2 victims still missing a week after new zealand's volcano disaster the prime minister has led the country in observing a minute silence in memory of those killed in last monday's eruption. of

a chari also known as white island the official death toll now stands at 16 another 20 people are in critical condition suffering from severe burns. bad weather forced recovery teams to call off their search for the 2 missing back domes rescuers about that they will though press ahead with their search. hold on hold a new zealand's white island rescue teams and protective gear landed where they believe one of the 2 remaining victims of the island's volcanic eruption could be found they were unsuccessful everyone went out the absolutely desperate to find bodies and return them to loved ones and tens of probability ideas we were we were probably thinking given that one was in the water that so i would tell you. that we were always hopeful because we do this for a reason we want to make sure that we bring the right expertise to be it with

regard to the task of paying that expertise including $24.00 person recovery teams toxic unstable conditions and air takes allowed the 2nd search on the island to last only 75 minutes the result was a setback but crews won't give up. so it is a it is a body blow for us and and confident it's a body blow for the families that are still watching. little kaito has been a popular tourist destination for day trippers but it a ruptured on monday spewing ash and gas 47 people and their guides were exploring the island when it happened the death toll has reached double digits and is expected to rise as more than 2 dozen people are still hospitalized most with severe burns on saturday teen space contaminated waters and poor visibility after one body was spotted in the water we knew there were the we saw them and they'll. there's talk of there and there are some we don't i want to support is an option

that's just the top and it's. hard. current word to stop but it's the conditions on the island are still volatile but military in. these crews will continue searching land and water and the hopes of allowing loved ones to bury their dad. let's get the very latest now from pete mckenzie he's a journalist reporting for us from wellington new zealand thanks very much for coming in for us can you tell us about the moment of silence where you are today absolutely a moment of silence was held today at 11 pm new zealand fine exactly a week after the eruption of the watch file by minister just under a moment of silence she and her kevin of were meeting in the new zealand singe building at. at the same time hundreds were making it to monica but i. doubt courses. and they were followed by thousands around the country honoring the

tragedy. the foreign minister of australia plane is also in the country to commemorate the tragedy. 2 bodies have yet to be recovered and just how dangerous is is the search operation that's underway now so jeanne is science the central government will agency which coordinates. scientific and geologic who writes the face of the country and says that another explosion another option is on mightly within the next $2440.00 i doubt it's that since the eruption risk or tried it once while and remains that they will so that's 2 out of school 5 vehicles and it's the same little that it was silent was at immediately before the eruption which of monday last week so circumstances are still dangerous still a lot of uncertainty ok and the danger is not only for the searchers out there the survivors are being treated for severe burns in hospital some of them are in

critical condition can you tell us something about their condition. absolutely so 26 abiders remain in hospital this 12 in a stray leah maine the australian citizens and residents who are repatriated off to new zealand hospitals found souls capable of just think something and lots of violence or tina still in new zealand those alive is it mainly facing critical burns to their body up to 30 percent will more the body including to their miles off the top 6 super heated gas ashton's team was in high olds by most of the fibers . superheating and burning the inside of the body. as a role the result has been a significant amount for skin which new zealand found itself lacking in after the eruption now the united states and other countries it's just on just going to jump in and ask you this question is for caare now going to be permanently closed for

tourists in light of this kind of a loss that suddenly one of the options on the right out there are 2 investigations ongoing one by using one's name health and safety investigator and another by the plates as those investigations are see it will become increasingly clear with that's not some locals are opposed to it for tom is really dependent on tourism it was silent but increasingly the move country is for some action taken and a look. which also on many of the tour or operations many of the local tribes members are calling for quite a while and spirit speak in closed off to the public people can see for us from wellington thanks very much for that. as for if you know some of the other stories making the news this hour there have been violent protests in india after a contentious citizenship law passed by the government in the capital delhi demonstrators set fire to buses police responding with tear gas legislation give

citizenship to those fleeing religious persecution but this is not apply to muslims . at least 10 people have been killed in a fire to factory near the bangladeshi capital dhaka it's the 2nd such incident in the country in less than a week because of that blaze is unknown. scuffles have broken out at anti-government protests in hong kong hundreds gathered in shopping malls across the city police made a number of arrests there was a vigil that marked the 6 months since the death of a protester who plunged from a window. while marathon un climate talks have ended in madrid with very little to show major economies rejecting calls for bolder targets to combat climate change that sparked anger among developing countries and activists hoping for emergency action u.n. secretary general antonio terrace also voiced his disappointment calling the summit

a lost opportunity to act. they were the longest talks to date leaving representatives exhausted with little progress made on how to limit global warming to under 2 degrees but there was agreement on one issue regretfully after all the hard work that you have all done we couldn't get to an agreement it is my sincere regret that we were not able to reach an agreement we invested a lot of energy and find a very fresh. that. at the end of the day we were not able to arrive at a final agreement observers had hoped that cup $25.00 would end with a framework for a carpenter ticket scheme imposing a tax on each tonne of greenhouse gas produced a condiments and environmental activists alike say it's a critical step if the world hopes to minimize the impending climate catastrophe but a deal couldn't be reached in part due to resistance from some of the world's worst

polluters like the u.s. and china india and australia. forcing delegates to only pledge to do more to uphold the paris climate agreement. with leadership in short supply in madrid environmental activists saying it's time for the european union to step up i mean this conference in madrid is really the point for. much of the climate change and it's now up to the european union with the green deal to go ahead with a clear vision of carbon free neutral economy all eyes are now on next year's meeting in glasgow but while the world continues to drag its feet the worst predictions of climate scientists have already started to become a reality. ok what does this reality mean for the people affected to talk about that i'm joined by sabina miming our climate expert from the german relief agency bread for the world thanks for coming in. you know looking at at the summit could

we say or ask is the parrot's accord even still alive it is still alive so the spirit of paris is still alive but with a very very weak heartbeat so we see the one hand the people on the street movements like fly this the future they take the spirit of paris to the streets the people who hold the. free men accountable they want to see and then the other hand is just a couple of countries will play a very. talk to fraud such as the us for the australia countries who are putting a high emphasis on fossil fuels ok it's not just the batteries that you mentioned holding things up right there also has been our fragmentation hasn't there among the para signatories themselves regarding goals and priorities there has always been like this developing countries who are very diverse. to climate change they are of course suffering most without committing 0 to the course such as the small

island states to krupa of african countries or dillies developed countries group so they want to see climate action they want to see very ambitious climate protection targets and of course they want to get like support in the climate crisis to adept to climate change and if they fear already our experience already climate induced loss and damage this they also need financial support to recover from them so does this via industrial countries play the croup or it's a very difficult road as you have seen now in much of it that industrialized countries as a group when not willing to provide finances for the poorest people. to recover from climate damages ok this affects your you know as asian you're just back from madrid you are one of the delegates were germany are at the summit and this affects abroad for the world you're certainly seeing climate change leading to an increase in people that need your help it is happening already now it's not

something that happens in the future it is now that in fiji 800 villages need to be relocated to to sea level rise and whole island state island state like. they have to see for new land and new options in order to survive to make a survival for their people always see extreme events increasing such as the flux in the east africa impacting 2500000 people just 4 weeks ago. or cycling. very badly india and bangladesh so it made like 1800000 people fleeing their homes and that makes that to deduce because it is happening now so often how concerned are you that climate change is going to influence things that you just mentioned like spark of forced migration due to climate catastrophe or. climate science is very wake

a number but they're very sure that climate change with a half or so and very terrible impact on poorest countries will aren't able to recover from the impacts of climate change so means that there will be a higher number of people who were forced to leave their homes because they're losing their livelihoods and that may have been an impact on civic conflicts. been a meeting or at least they're good good luck the best of luck to you with your going to say sion bread for the world thanks for coming. well we're off 11 on now and clashes there between right place an anti government protesters left dozens wounded in the lebanese capital beirut protesters rallied there for a 2nd night that despite a crackdown by security forces they want a new independent head of government not connected with the established political parties for. the current what started as
