. yeah that crowd was so huge that the officials were not planning for and that forced him to postpone the burial for now which was slated to be held today general salim money and $1.00 of his comrades were going to be laid to rest today but the burial has been postponed due to the static it. now people are in grief both over the top generals death assassination and this is of their. their fellow citizens over 40 and people are killed and of course he is seeing hundreds of thousands of people have turned out on the streets of tehran to pay their final respects to genocide of money and $1.00 of his top aides what about medical support lots of people have also been injured in the stampede they're getting the kind of

help they need. we're going to the reports are is just wrong the health ministry day have all visited hospitals in person or through our. helicopters and are receiving good treatment but the number of people killed is growing according to what i heard from my contacts in care much i heard the event over 5056 people are now out it's not official yet and what the police saying to you about how they look there is like as you said the now mourning not not just for the today generals but they're also mourning for the people who have been killed in the stampede. the burial is now on the people who are getting back home now but they're shocked really they didn't expect such a grief tragedy after the death of their money himself was

a very popular figure in his hometown caramels these accounts the integrand a journalist based in the iranian capital thank you very much for that update from the. meanwhile genitally money's killing has raised tensions in the region the assassination has caused an outpouring of anger against the u.s. iran is by revenge for the killing. not out of the armory revered in life. in death. hundreds of thousands of mourners witnessed the return of general kasim salim mani's body to his hometown of kemah. after a 3 day state funeral procession across the country this is where his journey ends . the son of man he was killed in a u.s.

drone strike in neighboring iraq on friday his death has not only provoked an outpouring of grief across the country but also anger. shouting death to america iranian lawmakers have been quick to pass a law condemning those involved in solemn on these deaths as terrorists all those who ordered this crime and who are with the pentagon and u.s. military are counted as terrorists. the u.s. is already bracing itself for retaliation paratroopers from the u.s. 82nd airborne division are on their way to the middle east they'll make up part of the $3000.00 additional troops being sent to the region but tensions with iran have also thrown the u.s. military presence in iraq into question there was confusion after a leaked

a letter from the u.s. defense department appeared to suggest an imminent withdrawal of american troops from iraq the pentagon says the letter was a draft and a mistake and there was no decision to leave the country. in life soliman he was considered a danger to america in death many now wonder whether he's become an even greater threat. now germany is announces its regrowing part of his contingent of soldiers from iraq i'm not joined by correspondent thomas fowler to listen why has the german government decided to reduce some of its troops from iraq. i'm rachel we have access to a letter sent by the german ministries of defense and foreign affairs the german parliament explaining the decision on the key element there is the security concerns that german officials have in particular when it comes to those soldiers

that are stationed in iraq it's important to stress amrita that this is on a temporary basis it's not on a permanent basis and that we're only talking of a small part of germany's troops in iraq that they're going to be moving to 2 neighboring countries in the region to jordan and kuwait but again important to stress amrita that it is something temporary germany is particularly concerned about the security on the one hand as i just explained on the other hand there are also concerns about the political situation and how that will evolve in the next few days and weeks in particular when it comes to the un t.i.'s coalition and german officials have been discussing this a lot here in berlin and in fact german foreign minister. had a lot to say on this this is part of what he had to say on this regard. the fact is the troops who are involved in a training mission for example are no longer carrying it on. the coalition's entire anti i asked combat mission is also currently on hold. so the safety of our

soldiers who are there is our highest priority. we're checking them out on a daily basis and i've so far taken every precaution to ensure the safety of our soldiers on the ground. so the security as we heard from the foreign minister of germany off the soldiers is most important and as you said almost the german contingent in iraq is small and the draw is temporary but what message does this rejoice send at a time of such high tension in the region. it is important to understand the bigger picture here i'm retired if you read carefully that letter by german officials it is clear that they have 2 priorities in mind one is the stability of iraq something of german officials particularly worried about and 2nd the un t.i.'s coalition which as you know is a direct threat as well the i.a.s. to the e.u. and i'm to germany and some of the german officials are particularly concerned

about as well as how they can still continue to combat the islamic state in the region if the situation continues to change in iraq so these 2 elements remain particularly important for germany and for the e.u. as a whole and that's why german officials will also be having various discussions not only with iraqi officials in fact germany sending a high ranking delegation to baghdad for consultations but they're also having discussions with other european leaders as well and let's not forget that anglo merkel herself will be traveling to russia at the weekend to have discussions with that he may put in there also on this issue so a lot of talk a lot of discussions on this issue that for germany is becoming very important indeed to do the obvious political correspondent thank you very much. the captain of the refugee rescue ship lifeline has been cleared of charges that he failed to properly register his vessel plows and ice help save more than 230 refugees from the mediterranean in june of 2018 he faced 810000 euro fine over

registering the lifeline which sailed under a dutch flag an accusation that harsh that was absurd. after a court imposed the 10000 euro fine in may 2019 lodged an appeal now he has finally been vindicated the court and the letter acquitting the captain but a battle isn't over another ship captain by him was seized by italian authorities last september after he had rescued 100 people from the sea separate proceedings underway there. let me now bring you up to date but some other stories making news around the bond 5 is that australia taking advantage of milder weather to reinforce containment lines against wildfires that have been burning for months in some parts of the country temperatures are expected to rise again later this week hollywood producer harvey weinstein of weinstein has been charged in los angeles with new counts of sexual assault against 2 women the challenges were filed as his trial and

a series of ceremonies in paris they included some staff members of the publication injured by the gunman the so-called islamic states claimed responsibility for the attack which was the 1st of a series of deadly incidents that shook france to its core committed mostly by french born extremists. january 7th to tan and 15 in paris in front of those headquarters terrorists targeted a newspaper which hot published caricatures of the prophet mohammed it took less than 2 minutes for them to shoot their 12 people and injure another 11 it was defense of a series of deadly attacks that lasted for 2 days. in the aftermath of the killing tarzan's of french people took to the streets to share their grief leaders from all over the world gathered in paris bowing to never give way to terrorism everyone was

shyly. the news paper itself nearly bankrupt before the attack became an overnight global sensation and was even published you know the languages. in france to politically incorrect after an criticized magazine met was unprecedented public support. or you know look at that line we've been here since 815 this morning for us this is a statement a political act. it was a very important to show solidarity for freedom of expression of those for sure i think this day will go down in history and that the attack was a major blow to freedom of the press in france but beyond doubt the slaughter of those journalists reveals that a country was ill prepared to answer terrorist threats. for the next 2 years france would leave in a state of emergency thousands more military personnel and police officers part of the so-called open house on something there were deployed and granted special

powers to tackle terrorism. but more attacks followed including a november 2015 massacre 130 people died. the following here in these dozens were killed when a truck drove into a crowd on bastille day. both attacks were claimed by factions of the sliming state . 5 friends is still on alert for new terror attacks while the survivors of the challis of do shooting continue to share their accounts of the massacre. and that report by the correspondent emmanuel chaz she joins me now in the studio with the use of french what are your memories of that event 5 years ago today. the 1st memory of our consul mine is the absolute shock upon finding out about the attack i found out about it on watching television and

seeing that quiet streets you know those fires that we hear the very beginning of the report that has been a real shock and also as a french person i grew up with drawings of. those are some of the agenda may still have been killed in the attack so obviously death came as a total shock and also disbelief i would say because here cumin life has been taken because of the ideas that were conveyed by journalists and the sheer brutality of the attack it lasted less than 2 minutes 2 jihadists killed those 12 people in less than 2 minutes so really the shock of that day remains opposed to today and there was shock across the nation and across europe on the day has there been a legacy to that event 5 years ago has anything been learned from what happened that day well what has been learned today unfortunately is that france was indeed very ill prepared to answer terrorists as terror is that came from within because

most jihadists were born in france actually now we found out that most people who committed such attacks were already under civilians but weren't arrested for lack of means by the french guy. so really that you preparation of the government is what came through of course since then the government deployed to something their operation which we talk talk about in the report it includes more than $10000.00 soldiers being deployed 5000 more police officers been deployed outside but sadly as you have as we've seen over the past year in france it doesn't prevent the attacks and the latest edition of a do is also be political it says new census ships' new dictatorships and it talks about the editor talks about a rising intolerance in france what kind of intolerance is he talking about sharia those editor or. cartoons nowadays in france are media tolerated and that freedom of expression is no longer what it was and the freedom of expression that challis

has. has always been a paper which was which showed a lot of irreverence that that's the trademark of the newspaper be against islam beat against catalyses and there's no specific target members of the government are regularly targeted by charley but that is that has become less and less tolerated not only by phone and by fanatics but also by the general public which is now a days often fed up with that irreverence riot in london charles thank you very much for those insights on that story the 5th anniversary of the attack on shirley in france in other news austrian polish and sébastien courts has been sworn in as the country's chancellor returning after 7 months out of power following the collapse of his government his center right people spot is non coalition with the greens. south korean comic

unrecognizable. identifying them is a painstaking process relatives are simply left without answers louisa fabulous' and many other families have come to the medical examiner's building in guadalajara in search of answers. many of the dead here have yet to be identified. they lost my d.n.a. sample i asked about his and they say they haven't got it. 2 german forensic pathologists are flown in to assist. angry family members of those missing stand outside. the examiners will help their mexican colleagues identify hundreds of victims of violence the work will take at least 6 months. there's all of this that that was right with the scale of it is indescribable. each of these body bags means there's a family who cannot green them because they don't know their loved ones ahead of

them who did it's depressing but it's part of our job as medical examiners when i talk more with mr morris. more bodies are brought in every day there's not enough staff nor the equipment to deal with them even for experienced pathologist the search for answers is a daunting task. some certainty is what eloise a is looking for in her darkest moments she could even accept being told that her son is dead but of course she's hoping that one day ramiro will come home. to sports on the for his ski jumping to a new one which is concluded on the slopes of bishops wolf and in austria dubbed it could backi of poland went into the final day as the overall leader even though he hadn't won any of the 1st 3 his but he dominated the fun of these proceedings and he went on to win the top prize of the totem and. on the man's large hill in
