forgotten these are social media videos of scenes in china sent to us i feel that many africans are facing the. bitterest newtok i kenyan teacher moved to china 4 years ago seeking a better future instead she broke a locked up in an apartment in shandong province and received a call in march we have not been working so my jury teel who are teachers here really facing each other the right to know these no money to pay for rangers no money for. a reason tries uncovered 1000 infections have led to 04 because attacks against foreigners in china where african seem to have been hit the hardest are the chinese government or is about a 2nd wave of the deadly virus there are many undocumented african immigrants living in china who are blamed for the rise in factions mostly with very little

evidence these violent incidents of now as part of diplomatic row between africa and china. i completely drained my mind my poor case to an extent that what i was doing a was calling my mom back home to send me. some so that i may be able to buy myself food and right now it has gone to an extent that i commit to be able to ask her any more back in kenya beatrice family war is about. all i ask myself on these people human enough we have the chinese people here and they're treated well why are they doing this to our children and when she told me when she slept out on the floor. i just asked the government to help them. cause honestly

i just heard they're going to send a plane but how are they going to pay for it. with the d.d.p. anonym. but it's a cry for help that may go unnoticed the chinese ambassador to kenya dismisses cases like beatriz's with the races but 200 african migrants in china the tensions between them and the locals is still a reality they are facing my mom is very worried about me and all why she wants me is back safe in our kenyan soil we all we've got nothing so long as i learned they are safe. good bye many africans in china lives have been turned upside down and are desperate to be reunited with their families. story let's bring in journalist fabio encrypts moves in beijing and is following developments for us you spoken to many african the migrants there in china how

common is this kind of treatment. well i mean 1st of all i saw the social media posts they mostly acute in the southern chinese city where most of african community lifts so i actually spoke to many migrants here in beijing because it's really highly restrictive travel in china and i was very shocked and also surprised to see that also in beijing most of the migrants told me very similar stories 141 year old man for example told me he was evicted from his home he's basically homeless now since february 1 of his friends also said that now he's been getting 3 days off time to leave his home and the reason is that african community there were some cases off. $1000.00 cases and now this almost a witch hunt so basically among the population has a lot of. saying that the african community they are carrying the virus so the

people are afraid so what about africans who have overstayed their visas their. well of course they live in a very precarious situation many of them who live in the gray zone or who are illegal here they've been kind of tolerated by the authorities but right now every movement district you have to hand in your phone get your body temperature scan a q.r. code. nothing else being undocumented right now yeah so they are basically the 1st week right now and. also because they have basically old victim of racial profiling i mean only africans are talking they have to go to khartoum they have to go testify well i think for us for example they are not touched by the awfulness. china has long sought to exert more influence in africa has this surge and racially charged violence affected ties. yet i find it quite remarkable because i mean china has expanded its investment towards many african countries

also right now many african countries for example kenya that was mentioned in the profile before they are demanding on the case of mosques shipments from banks from china still many investors there were quite outspoken when it came to criticizing off argue c.m. they said this discrimination has to stop and the chinese government also reacted and they started for example anti racism education in. this situation i mean catch me in beijing thank you very much. it's time now for a quick look at some of the other stories making headlines today speculation continues over the health of north korean leader kim jong il and reports say doctors have been sent from china to advise on people's health and that he's recovering from a heart operation satellite images now appear to show his personal train of the

coastal resort town of one son. in israel thousands of people observing physical distancing rules have protested over a coalition deal that leaves prime minister benjamin netanyahu in power is set to go on trial on corruption charges next month's ukraine and ends a 16 month political deadlock in israel. salvadoran president naive to kill has ordered a 24 hour lockdown of prisons holding gang members gang leaders have been sent into solitary confinement after a sudden spike in killings. more and more nations are beginning to ease lock downs including germany several 100 people have demonstrated against the current restrictions here in the capital berlin on saturday they claim the curbs infringe on their constitutional rights police say they arrested more than 100 people. or calls for the lifting of restrictions are getting louder partly

because the number of coronavirus deaths in germany remains relatively low and around 13000 intensive care beds are still available but although the number of covered 19 patients in hospitals is going down doctors are warning people not to get complacent. protective gowns 2 pairs of gloves and a special mask it takes had physician ghana marks a long time to get ready before he can enter the intensive care unit at a concert university hospital is neither huge but we know in spain and italy as minister 15 percent of medical personel going to affect it and many died and he's very strong with. patients with covais 1000 are currently being treated here that means they're on artificial respiration sometimes for weeks and as doctors here stress they're not exclusively people from high risk groups. yes by one cent we have patients here who are not 18 years old some are only in their

sixty's. and they didn't all have preexisting health conditions some were pair fairly healthy before con woman. is one such patient the 52 year old thinks he was infected in austria he's been treated for kobe 1000 at a hospital in bavaria for nearly 3 weeks he was on a respirator fighting for his life. this was it was like a bad dream and one point i remember hearing someone say to me you have to fight you have to survive. this hospital has become a center for cope with 19 patients until recently the situation here was extreme with more than half of the 280 beds taken by corona patients now the numbers have started to go down. the last 2 houses in compared to the peak period we now have i

want half the number of cases so that's giving us some time to catch our breath. you're just. catching their breath and hoping the number of infections doesn't start to go up again at the university clinic in arkansas doctors say the situation is still far from normal their head physician says now's not the time to relax. before the you know we're hoping we won't see many new cases and but things can maybe go back to normal with a smaller number of patients. the worst case scenario for us would be a 2nd wave of infections out of the movie the good side of it if a 2nd wave does come the team here is prepared even though treating covert 1000 patients takes everything they have mostly it takes time because after weeks of artificial respiration those who recover have to learn to breathe again on their own. and as restrictions have confined people to their homes wildlife is making

unexpected appearances in cities around the world dolphins have been spotted swimming close to the shoreline in istanbul the turkish which operates straddling the bosphorus marine traffic has been vastly reduced in the waterway connect in the mediterranean and the blocks. and that's it from me and the news team i'll be back with an update for you at the top they are. news. thank you very much of. being told it is for me. is for. beethoven is for him beethoven. and beethoven is for. beethoven is for ever.
