5:02 pm
many of the details have been to this point unconfirmed can you tell us what the latest information is that you're hearing. what we are hearing so far as would you have said the stabbing in the hotel in glasgow in city center and what do you have just said has also been said by says that it was a hotel that houses asylum seekers now the police have confirmed that one male suspect was shot dead by the police they have also released a statement saying that 6 people are in hospital for treatment and one of those 6 is a police officer who was on the scene and that he is critical in critical condition but also in a stable condition now the scottish police also saying that they have the situation under control that there is no risk for the public but local politicians nevertheless the public not to go into glasgow city center at the moment and what's being described as a serious incident back at prime minister bars johnson has also reacted to
5:03 pm
events in glasgow what what can he say prime minister as johnson has said that he's deeply saddened by this incident and that his thoughts are with the families he also is thanking what he says are the brave emergency services on the scene. and this incident comes days after a terrorist incident in raiding last week with 3 people were stabbed to death and 3 injured the u.k. must be on a drive now. well yes it is quite worrying for many people in the u.k. we've had a series of terrorist incidents really but i have to stress that this is not being treated as a terrorist incident or at least it's not confirmed officially we've had a series of terrorist. incidents in the last year and one is only one week away
5:04 pm
less than a week away even when after a sunny day on a new warm evening less than a week ago people were outs despite the coronavirus they had to be outside and 3 people were reading and small small the town near london they were reported to be of the. community and for that incident it was confirmed that the police are treating this as a suspected terrorist attack in london burgomaster thank you very much or authorities in the one of 2 german districts under new pandemic lockdown say they're opening 5 new centers for people to get free coronavirus tests the i aim is to carry out $10000.00 test per day in the town of goodness little but people are being told to expect long queues the town and the neighboring districts have become hotspots after an outbreak at a local meat processing plant that infected some 1500 people. in the meat cutting
5:05 pm
section a tenuous at the center of the outbreak 2 thirds of the workers here have tested positive but why did the virus spread like wildfire here scientists suspect it could be related to the air cooling and circulation system in the plant. what we didn't know before is that under these circumstances the recent kill ation of air can keep moving that is a risk factor we weren't aware off long. works as an air conditioning technician in the city of deuce book according to german law all workplaces need to be supplied with fresh air the tenuous meat processing plant is no exception. because there are cooling systems based on research they lower the room temperature to between 6 and 10 degree celsius but the machines used for that only move the existing air around they don't add any fresh air. experts
5:06 pm
now speculate that the research relations system may have spread the virus throughout the plant because the air is not purified doesn't consume these appliances aren't built to carry filters if one is installed the machine won't be as effective as before it's like buying a sports car and adding a heavy trailer it just won't go as fast or. the air circulation is to blame he says lingering arrows couldn't withstand the movement and yet slaughterhouses are increasingly becoming corona hotspots. and lower saxony 45 infected workers from a turkey slaughterhouse are currently quarantined in these army barracks and in north rhine-westphalia 79 employees of a donor factory tested positive even though the conditions here are much better than a tenuous and still the meat processing environment was fertile ground for the virus
5:07 pm
. and now the coronavirus news around the world right now. flash flooding in ivory coast main city of beijing has killed 3 people and fathered homes and cars witnesses said that water rose $150.00 centimeters within half an hour the flooding comes just over a week after a deadly mudslide also hit the country's economic capital. has been jailed for at least 15 years for throwing a 6 year old french boy off the 10th floor of london take more every last year young boy is now wheelchair bound and still recovering from these sorts. of court in moscow has handed down a guilty verdict and a 3 year suspended sentence to the russian film and theater director sarah burney cove it was accused of forming a criminal group and embezzling public funds for theater project. has called the charges absurd standing by in moscow
5:08 pm
correspondent emily show and emily the court suspended the same tense what other reactions to what seems from this distance quite a surprising outcome. well this trial this case has been going on for 3 years and i think for many people here in moscow and across russia this almost felt like an acquittal at least for the people outside of the courthouse today they reacted really happily people were cheering and clapping but city even your lawyer has said that he will be appealing the case against his defendant after all the city of new coke and 2 other co-defendants have been found guilty they have to pay huge fines and they also have to pay back the money that they are accused of embezzling $2.00 of city of new co-defendants also we're told that they will not be able to work in state institutions anymore so that
5:09 pm
includes of course state theatre so that's a pretty serious sentence considering that many supporters of city opinion and his co-defendants say that this case was politically motivated in the 1st place people often cite the example of the fact that the city of nichols was accused of not putting on a production of midsummer night's dream that actually viewers and spectators did see in the theaters and of himself has called these accusations absurd and just quickly the case was criticized as a show trial against russia's liberal saying why is the well because citibank of himself was really well known here in russia and internationally for pieces that criticized russia the regime here the political situation here the social conditions the orthodox church and so on so people artists especially said that if
5:10 pm
he is accused that means that anyone can be accused and one person today even told us that artistic freedom itself was on trial today in the show when in moscow thank you. well french president and mantle micron is due to host a video conference with his russian counterpart vladimir putin and the security situation in libya will be at the top of the agenda the north african nation is less than 2000 kalid kilometers away from the continental europe it's become a bloody battleground for a number of players vying for power in the oil rich country one of them is 5. leads the un installed government in tripoli on the other side is the military strongman khalifa haftar a rebel general who now controls 2 thirds of the country including libya's oil fields so far his attempts to take control of the capital have failed. for more on that i'm now joined by you're going to hot
5:11 pm
a member of parliament for the conserve a pristine democrats and a spokesman on foreign policy on what result do you do you expect of the video conference of the russian and french presidents i expect that they talk about different. crisis regions not only about libya but all its probably about syria and about ukraine. the situation in eastern ukraine i expected that. supporting that was agreed on in january believe in conference that both conflict groups should be tried all out by. installing and pushing. on weapon exports the route was our government and also to the ribbons. how dangerous is the ongoing fighting in libya for europe. i think. it has the potential to become
5:12 pm
a 2nd syria because we have too many interests from outside in that region we have for. oil. resources and the country though that there's also interest of organized crime or wallets to to put their pockets full was dollars and euros and therefore i think it's good to find a way to. make the crown prepared for political solution solution of the conflict and the 1st step is to stop the. civil war between. government and the rebels are on top down and on both sides. to us from participants of the bone and conference active and i think if. michael is talking to the russian president putin they both should think about how they can convince have not to insist in a military solution he's known to get into. a defensive situation and this is maybe
5:13 pm
the right date on the right weeks to say please join the table for negotiations and i'm sure that the french president is going to let erection and i also hope that the president will convince 14 to reengage the normandy fall from it on the situation in eastern ukraine. and speaks to my next question what's the chances of mr have to bring cajoled into taking that stance. and it's a moment after it's in a defensive role be coarser he fades to conquer tripoli his priority so to say is more my limited. due to the military successes of such government but there's no chance for one of the 2 sides to win that civil war militarily and i think all from outside have to convince and have to lead only
5:14 pm
particular negotiations on the table might be successful to have a sustainable peace for development for libya and the countries that participated in the voting conference was that french president russian president and many others they stay for support for such a for the future solution if they want to political solution for libya as europeans and all the others will help to develop the country and to find a way into a peaceful democratic. future of the country as it was mentioned in several papers some years ago. therefore the way it is and. able to go but i have to and so much needs to to agree on that what was decided on in. you can have our foreign policy spokes person for the conservative alimentary group in the german bundestag thank you so much. they're watching the news still
5:15 pm
to come. there's jubilation in liverpool is your club side with the english premier league it's the club's 1st title in 30 years stay with us to join the celebration. of turkey has opened its borders and insists it has the coronavirus under control but european governments continue to warn against travel there as state of the correspondent reports the tourism industry in the popular holiday resort of antalya is already feeling the heat. preparing breakfast for his guests under normal circumstances must have a good one wouldn't have time for this when it's high season in antalya the hotel owner is usually run off his feet but not this year right now only one of his rooms is occupied a family from germany is here despite the travel warning. they love it as
5:16 pm
a result i can only tell you come here everyone it's wonderful in antalya. the only problem is because of the coronavirus crisis hardly anyone is coming so it's all a lot of my last year i had an occupancy rate of 100 percent consistently from april to october and this year there are only 3 people july is coming soon we only have a few months left of this season right now it's really difficult. mostafa has done everything he can to make his hotel safe the turkish government has issued strict tie jean rules that's why good now disinfects rules of pool chairs several times a day although nobody is using them. to let him use that mosque a video we have massed for i guess you can disinfect your hands everywhere and temperature checks are scheduled every day in the requirements on fareast. and we
5:17 pm
adhere to them until we can take that out what good is that if no one comes to. untag as beaches are among the most popular holiday destinations in the mediterranean region about 15000000 tourists from abroad came here last year but this summer most of the sun loungers are empty because of the coronavirus crisis governments in europe including germany are warning their citizens against travel to tacky many of those here who depend on tourism think that's unsafe. almost 2500000 people live in the antalya region but so far only a few 100 coronavirus infections have been officially registered here. mostafa good dan thinks turkey is coming through the crisis relatively well he believes decision makers in europe are deliberately warning against trips to turkey in order to give their own tourist destinations an advantage. all my exit
5:18 pm
germany exit very biased they declared us a risk area but open borders to hundreds that are in a much worse situation spain or italy for example they have more coronavirus cases than turkey and a higher coronavirus death toll a lot of chilled just a secure. many share food and frustration and tell us historic old town is normally filled with tourist bartering facilities but now the sellers fight boredom the restaurant owners and taxi drivers are wondering how long they can keep going. to be attributed we only have a go out of our taxis on the streets no hotel gas so no taxi rides will surely it doesn't work without 4 interests turkish holiday makers aren't enough of these years ago that's all our preparations for this summer with a nothing 2020 is
5:19 pm
a last year old. well last year maybe last season he made good money with his hotel mostafa good and says and he's still hopeful but he also knows if the tourists from europe don't come back soon the holiday paradise often tahlia faces a devastating summer. correspondent julie hahn is in istanbul for sure that all begs the question can her turkey handle an influx of tourists without risking public health. well the turkish government certainly seems to think so they are trying hard to convince travelers that taki is a safe destination and they are actively lobbying a number of e.u. countries right now to reopen the borders to lift travel warnings and just launched a so-called how's the tourism program which sets criteria when it comes to hygiene
5:20 pm
and how in airports in airplanes as well as in hotels restaurants balls cafe's or at the beach and as most of the hotel owner told me. quite straight when it comes to making sure these rules are being followed at an airport for example we saw thermal cameras checking passengers temperatures they're also working on setting up a coronavirus test center that so many things are being done if we look at the figures on the other hand i mentioned in my report that these coastal tourism hops have seen a relatively low number of off corona virus infections but overall nationwide entirety we see the numbers search again they have in fact doubled since early june when turkey reopened and east most of its coronavirus restrictions we now have a figure of nearly 1500 new cases each day and that's certainly something european
5:21 pm
decision makers will also take into account when reevaluating their travel advice. you were just briefly how important is the travel industry for the country. it's a $1000000000.00 a business and that's exactly why turkey prices to open borders tourism accounts for 12 percent all of the turkish economy an economy that now faces its 2nd recession in just 2 years so tacky needs for interests and it needs foreign currency the tourism sector has already been battered by the pen damage and that has affected tens of thousands of people who work in tourism so much is at stake for taki this summer. thanks so much. or india is confronting the qur'an across parts of the country still struggling to recover from psych one point that tore through south asia a month ago communities on the bay of bengal bore the brunt of the massive storm

5:24 pm
céline water from these ponds thanks when the rains come they will again be filled with fresh water allowing fish farming to resume at least the draining can address serious health concerns as well. public health and hygiene are seriously disrupted here and need to be restored stagnant water is dangerous as it can lead to gastro intestinal diseases as well as skin conditions and then there is the often ignored issue of snake bite a snake bite. one socially in the shadows like this one are trying to bridge a gap in emergency response they are limited in their each. this has left the locals widening about dangerous gaps in health care. the water is contaminated and we cannot drink it you know he. gets sick and then getting to the hospital is
