masked men attacking refugees trying to come ashore in greece but who's behind the assaults our investigative unit has been searching for answers plus the powerful the last boss in the next season's bloodlessly underdogs hiding time challenge to favorites found a frame and and it was thrilling really close until the very last 2nd. hello i'm terry march good to have you with us video has emerged showing bass men attacking the boats of migrants trying to reach greece police people on the boat rather have deep detailed how they were assaulted and traumatized by the incidents up to now the identity of the attackers has been unclear but d.-w. investigations unit and bellingham. i have uncovered information suggesting they

may have been linked to the greek coast guard athens denies all wrongdoing we'll have more from the greek minister in a moment but 1st this report from in this report forget the show and you'll be a buyer tell us more. off greece poses a puzzling question was a disturbing answer mom migrant boats are leaving turkey for the e.u. but on the greek island there hasn't been an increase in iraq. there were 19 people on this boat more than your. 16 year old from afghanistan to these pictures he said it was shortly after masked men attacked them from entering the boat was in the quantas off last bus on the 5th of june this year the body doesn't want to be identified. for much of the course 2 men have. received they are wearing black mark on their faces and one

have nicely hitmaker all on our board and the you would be wired which is connected . we analyzed similar reports and videos comparing them such as coastlines and the position of the sun along was information from emergency calls official reports and eyewitness accounts. our conclusion refugees and migrants are being kept away from the greek coast at times by force it seems masked men often attack migrant boats on the open seas damaging them so they can't be steered and leaving them adrift sometimes they even actively force the boats back into true waters a tactic known as push back. these prospects and legal international law but it's difficult to establish for certain who this man actually are even though the evidence is apparently of overwhelming. evidence such as this video.

analysis of both structures let our colleagues from the investigative platforms battling cat and light house reports to clearly identify the d.m.v. as belonging to a greek coast guard ship. but greece denies using illegal methods the coast guard told t w. the operations conducted by a harbor police and hellenic coast guard are in accordance with international law and international conventions. we also asked the european border agency frontex which works closely with the greek coast guard their answer didn't refer to the incidents in question they just said all of their border control operations conformed to the highest standards my question to contacts you say you don't know but how could you not know and what steps have you taken to rebut what we have as evidence. kiki has been watching migrants moving across the gnc for years and has

seen a rise in the number of pushbacks she has been monitoring the situation for the european center for constitutional and human rights. the e.u. is expected to stand up for a new law to be respected and we haven't seen that we have seen it in public statements made by representatives of the e.u. institutions and we haven't seen it in any sort of legal action that new institutions have to power to take against member states not respect you all members of the european parliament and the un high commission for refugees are demanding an official investigation they say greece has the right to defend its borders but it must do so within international law. and not as. minister for immigration and asylum joins us now from thank you for

being with us mr magara great coast guard actively pushing back migrants in the aegean sea. absolutely not we fully abide by international in european only got in the protection of my times because in the few days when facing a crisis we experienced 1800 that i went in 2020 and not down but as you would understand for the over call that comes in the silence that says but we are protecting aboard this the coast guard is up to be that to protect human life at sea and i am please believe ported in 2020 with if you have loss of life ever in the again we have one involved one past them in the past half of clinton 20 still are dead the boat but a port of development for the protection of human life you may have seen those pictures of must men pushing back those boats in the aegean sea indeed what appears to be attacking the migrants in those boats is greece using proc seats to do

that do you know who those men in those boats are and how they got there. i haven't seen the pictures money fending out what not using not somalia any proxies the l.n. court of god and from pics and occasionally nate all of that to protect this the borders of the european union you won't know that since march we faced an organized question from our neighbors the who crossed more of them $100000.00 people in every month was well organized and the entire leadership of the european union the presidency of cons of the presence of the commission the president then see all of the company you've been you know over have to demonstrate the sort of data the of the european union you know i want to talk about using it by banks but also a political tool for geopolitical objective that clearly is an issue for the european union and when it's done says they the european parliament in the plenty would be discussing a need to be nice at the pentagon thanks aggression i do want to talk about the eve

aspect of this in just a moment but i'm still want to push a little further on the question of what's happening in the aegean because we do have those reports of the boats the migrant boats being attacked and pushed back i'm just want to i want to ask you point blank are you aware of those reports have you looked into them and how do you account for those reports the hellenic coast guard is full of the spec think the utopia a big nation for the protection of life on c.n.n. international you know we've gotten on the phone well what climb up to do with that is the whole of these woods are not open a thing always and with that difference these them prevent and rescued these both before they crossed into utopian was that you just thought and what do you say to allegations that greece is forcing migrants to endure inhumane living conditions in the camps that they are being held. we have asked for european funding in which

credit profile in the next few days to create new comes in some most cost lead also levels and he also knew concert would provide the prize done to us all for their safety inappropriately been standards you know what happened in 2001000 were the very beginning please and that meant that fussy it is that with the aid that for a few 1000 people had 6 times the capacity investments we did not have sufficient capacity for unexpected that i haven't seen bills out of the 19 and that means we need to develop new facilities we have applied to the european union for funding we expect that it spawns the next few days and we will start building within the next month then you comes of course we want to say for comfort we need better conditions but also we need more protective comes both for the benefit of people living there and for local communities now greece is under tremendous pressure to reduce migrants landing on it shores and staying there what's your front line strategy for

achieving the front lines got a ged we're following a balanced migration approach we are 40 in respect of international law and we've got a few g.'s day comes to life in 5 people and we have an a program that will help these people we know that they can do exercise the find jobs 5 find housing we support them with ozzy but at the same time we have a stick not really policy in line with the international low 40 of those international protection and that's something the european union needs to take a more active stans we've been closer together with frontex to 10 people with state in dignity in the pencil borders in when they're not impacted the muslim population and i think having people groups in you know these dean was doing between genuine refugees and economic migrants plays a fundamental role in this using a lot of the right do you feel left alone by the rest of the e.u. in dealing with the migrants coming to greece. i think there is not sufficient

support for relocating people from the frontline states to the next computer we currently have a 101000 times even if you understand what the asylum service is that's a huge burden for out of the 8 comes that's a big number we would need more support for other countries to help us with asylum seekers and refugees but at the same time you understand most beautifully in countries that are not actively participating in a mechanism for they took a sion or sadness because in the good huge and not something that we need wept for in the unit and migration pock as well as the home on point. mr majority thank you very much for talking with us that was not just majority agrees minister for immigration and asylum. fish now hong kong as leader kerry has defended the controversial new security law that china has imposed on the city she said it would make hong kong safer by preventing violent protests she also

born citizens not to break the law so the hunger as our government will be crystal implement this law and i for one those radicals not to attempt to violate this law all crossing the red line because the consequences of breaching this law. that was homecomings chief executive carrie lamb there well critics fear the law will and freedom of speech in hong kong as the w.c. because reports many activists fear the suppression of dissent will be stepped up. oh for years now every one has joined fellow members of his party on the 1st of july to mark hong kong's handover to chinese fruit but everything changed last week it isn't uncommon for such serious more peaceful protests to have a 100 plus police to search a dozen office i guess this will be the new normal you may never see the picture of

me then hong kong is on the street again not because we are content and not because . we are now happy with the government it's because now we have to upgrade come out very. well see below. the 1st protest seems to new security law was put in place which can see offenders go to prison for life for suppression. several parties have now decided to disband some leading activists have fled but avery and his party are not about to follow suit. because if for political party to bow down now. to safeguard to do wrestle hong kong psychologically. the most awful compared to go to prison for a long time we are not going to change what we have been doing for years but depends on the. suppression we are going to face in the future there will be short

term mortification and transformation of activism in hong kong there's no doubt a strong sense of fear also lose hope i support self-censorship has been the most common reaction just as many pro-democracy restaurants have but they've taken down decorations for the critical mass of just leaving empty mammals as a way of silent protest. beijing in sr long a fact only a minority of lawbreakers critics say political activism is under threat and that's just the 1st step. now works for an ngo based in hong kong for decades. it has been advocating for labor rights across asia hochul has been the popular hope for thousands of local and international n.g.o.s but a new law means many are now we considering the options there's a lot of them break with saying we don't know what do you mean by somehow maybe coley where foreign forces because we have stuff from overseas under this law we

owe why then sure like how it will impact even the safety or in the windows to off the wall this stuff right through to if we continue to receive for funding we have to somehow p. pair their worst scenario then we may also can see no to move to. other countries. beijing has played down the laws impact saying a 1000000 close to strengthen the management of n.g.o.s and are to organizations in hong kong. even though is there a clear how the security law will be implemented activists and efficacious here will have to be where they face a rocky road ahead. well in the wake of that new security law being imposed global tech giants have been reviewing their strategies in the territory the short form video talk has announced it will exit the hong kong market the move

comes after google facebook what's up and twitter stopped taking requests from users for user data from hong kong to talk is a chinese company and has been trying to grow its global audience. for this rejoined by clifford craning our china analyst from d.w. business good to see you for so tell us what is to talk a chinese company withdrawing its up from stores and from hong kong well i think to talk because it's a chinese company which is trying to expand globally has to show that it's independent of the china market and so it has to be more international. even the more than even the other international tech giants so it's made this decision to go even further than facebook and twitter by actually removing its app from the store as it has a chinese when called obama which isn't affected by this but it shows that they are very keen to be to have this international image they've had a lot of problems with their image in the last year or so we had

a case last year you might recall where we were girl did make up. make up to talk during the course of that spoke about the camps the labor camps in so they've been trying to improve their image they've hired a guy from disney. who is now looking after that side of the business as well so it's it's it's really part of that approach is just the 1st real sign of the impact of security law is having on business and uncle i think so i mean we heard in the report there how people are sort of waiting to see how it will be implemented and i think this is an example of the kind of the fact that we're going to see because we've had these big tech firms on tick talk making these decisions now to to with to withdraw or to to review how they're approaching hong kong and i think it's going to spill over into other areas now and it could be that this is going to be the new normal in hong kong after the security law you mentioned facebook and

google big tech firms many of them american it's quite unusual to see u.s. tech for arms of that size challenging beijing it it is i mean we're still waiting for apple apple hasn't made its statement yet but but the fact that twitter and facebook are already reviewing is a very big signal to talk so i think you're going to see more pushback now against china if we think about huawei we've had the way story on telecoms for so long in a way this whole area about what sort of control the chinese government can have of international. international companies when there's a different kind of different playing fields as it were between these companies and between these government controls that's coming more and more to the fore and i think it's going to be played out in hong kong china analyst for coding thank you very much. so you look now at some of the other stories making news around the world today in australia the state of victoria has announced another lockdown of

melbourne the country's 2nd largest city as more than 5000000 people ordered to stay home unless going out for work doctor's eyes or medical care the law begins at midnight it will last at least 6 weeks atlanta mayor kyle you said lance bottoms has tested positive for coated 19 the 50 year old democrat has been considered a possible running mate for presidential candidate joe biden autumn's has criticized georgia's governor brian kemp for not keeping locked all measures in place long enough. for the 1st time germany is expected to make an official apology to the may be over a colonial era mass killing between 10041008 tens of thousands of ethnic herero and nama people were killed in what was the colony of german south west africa for the past 5 years the 2 governments have been in talks over how germany can account for its role in what the united nations have long called the 20th

century's 1st generous. german south west africa was the one calling the u.s. germans really settled but in doing so they forced the indigents full control of scarce resources in this mostly arid territory the germans killed more than 80000 herrero and namma people in fact it's estimated 75 percent of the herero were wiped out and victims skulls taken away in a failed search for proof that white europeans with the period. you can imagine we see we have free. fight the years might have passed but the heroes and nam as still one justice i mean lengthy talks between the german and namibian government. apology. points 3 points we are demanding from the german government because we can relate if somebody did apologize

or think is that the. negotiations between the 2 governments but. did you know most in the excluded from these. negotiations this makes things difficult germany has ruled out paying compensation offering to fund development projects instead we go we there's a great deal of germany's past that's well and publicly documented here and that includes the horrors of it and that's in history this for example is the holocaust memorial but that's the history that germany acknowledges that this country has been slow and even reluctant at times to own up to some of its actions as a colonial power and that's another dark era to uncover. yet some streets in germany are still named after its colonialists and it appears that's not a bother to everyone. on my feet want to g.g.

you have a problem with our beautiful street names. campaign groups have succeeded in getting this subway station and its adjacent streets renamed its outgoing name is from a derogatory word used to describe black people all part of a quest to get germany to look inward and ask tough questions about its attitude today towards some elements of its past. in german football better braver and faced lower tier club hide behind in the relegation play off that sees the 3rd place team from the 2nd division play the 3rd from last in the bonus league at this to fill the sole remaining spot in germany's top tier and after a goal the straw in the 1st leg of the 2nd leg was the cider. himes journey has taken them from 6th division obscurity to the brink of the bundesliga and despite no spectators allowed into the tiny stadium they did have some home

support. after just 3 minutes the visitors got off the mark on closer inspection it was an own goal norman tyler cowen himself a former braman player putting it into his own net with the way goals counting as the tiebreaker breman now knew a draw would suffice heighten himes 1st major upset came after the break when around 50 local fans somehow snuck into the stadium and were promptly chucked out again perhaps this woke the home side up 5 minutes from time to be a small bust 3 and unleashed a shot that was put in on the rebound by team kleindienst his 15th goal of the season. with hard time then throwing everything forward better braman broke free in the 94 for minute to restore their lead as big sums goal sparked wild celebrations . it wasn't quite over yet though as haydn haim got a penalty in the 8th minute of injury time. but it merely sealed

a draw as haydn hi i'm phil short and remain in the 2nd division. that means relief a braman as they survive relegation and continue to be the longest serving club in the bundesliga. and so braman will remain in the us league next season joining me in studio here to talk us through the action is anthony howard from d.w. sports could see it very no fairy tale finish there for haydn hunt but was it a fair outcome no not really that these things matter is a perfectly set up to either they the fairy tale or some sort of soul crushing result and that's what we thought it's a better way goes. on as he said in the end not that there didn't can. stayed at home so they needed to score and have a draw and i hope delayed twice but the defense can finally breathe again it's been this case oldie that they've been up and down they needed to school 61 to even mike

at this fall but i can finally breathe again this thing in the top flight now we saw there in a report that there was some fan presence some fan support on display at least there in the stadium how does that happen with no fans allowed in the stadium it's a decent question and it happens but any and all of high level means and that means that everyone was trying to inject some color into this we're going to take a look at the vision but the club officials from both sides were just desperate to try and get some noise into the study at one point the club shift from hardened hama zamboni's pots and pans the club medical official there was banging her to cope with a hammer to try and make some noise as the fans breaking the stadium from hadon dire eventual kicked out all this goes to speak to the fact that no the silence is unbearable in football right now i just need the fans back in the stadiums we've got other problems but in a football sense we could do with the noise in the stadiums yeah that's so that's an ongoing problem but looking at the competition itself one of these 2 teams go

from here so they had a premise then the top flight claudio put solder in the 41 year old peruvian strike it goes into retirement finally terry at the age of 41 hot and hungover to the lower leagues to lick their wounds so to speak and 90 the late goes back to the drawing board given that it's now been 17 matches since the lower league team actually won one of those relegation playoff teams maybe some thinking to beat him and think thank you so much and see how if you did obvious sports just are. if you're watching g.w. news remember you can always stay up to date with d.w. news and all the latest events going on in the world on our website set w. dot com you can also find us on twitter at instagram at e w news you'll find me on twitter at tim news stream thanks for watching.
