hello i'm kristie wonder it's good to have your company. carry lamb ses has defended the controversy in new security law that china imposed on the city last week she said it would make hong kong safer by preventing violent protests she also wants citizens not to break the law so the government will. implement this law and i for one those radicals not to attempt to wild this law or crossing the red line because the consequences of breaking this law. critics fear the law will end freedom of speech in hong kong. kong reports many activists fear the suppression of dissent will be stepped up. oh
12:02 pm
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 troops but everything changed last week it isn't uncommon for such a race more peaceful protests to have 100 plus police to search a dozen office i guess this will be the new law you may never see the picture of them hong kong is on the street like a lot because we are content not because. we are now happy with because it's because now we're too afraid to come out right thank god it was it was. the 1st protest seems to new security will 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. for political party to bow down now. to safeguard to do wrestle
12:03 pm
hong kong psychologically but most often 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 that we are going to face in the future there will be short term modification and transformation of activism in hong kong there's no doubt a strong sense of fear also in the east over support of self-censorship has been the most common reaction just as many pro-democracy restaurants have quickly taken down declarations with medical messages 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 n.c.o. based in hong kong for decades. it has been advocating for labor rights across asia
12:04 pm
hochul has been a popular hub 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 are do you mean by somehow maybe coley where foreign forces because we have stuff from overseas under this law we owe the why then sure like how it will impact even the safety or in the windows staff or why this stuff right through to if we continue to receive for funding we have to somehow p. pair are the worst scenario then we may also consider to move to. other countries. beijing has played down the last impact saying we merely plans to strengthen the management of n.g.o.s and our to all the nice asians in hong kong. even though is there were clear how the security law will be implemented activists
12:05 pm
and efficacious here will have to be where they face a rocky road. and one of those activists is josh will want one of the most recognizable faces in the hong kong for democracy movement a democratic syria march and began by asking mr wong what he thought of carrie lamb's warning that quote radicals shouldn't violate the new bill sure if it's generated by it's not only targeting activists even ordinary citizens or foreigners or expound by also be the prime pocket or bheki to silence the voices and we strongly aware is. right is also about the free flow of information and the free flow of capital being threatened by law is implemented. ok but what about you because you're a public face of the pro-democracy movement or many people are watching and wondering how this affects you have you received any threats since. this law was
12:06 pm
imposed. with the race of life sentencing were the uncertainty for china race all week x. and all we face of being sent to the blackout in mainland china national security law is that used for beijing to erode that one country 2 system to be one country one system but just like modern 100000 hong kong has topped with history on july 1st even holist banned the rally we still continue our fight in local. in hong kong at the scene we also have our friends and our sick folks local support ok but i was wondering about threats to you have you received any threats i was that i received threats from roll beijing camp since last summer during the end. but the french can't be feet even strong with determination your fellow activists nathan law he fled hong kong last week do you intend to stay i will continue
12:07 pm
to fight until the last minute and it's also important to see for local and global support at the same time i will continue to campaign in the local level and nathan law will be responsible for continued a global start barack the campaign and we wish to lead the was a paul colas being hurt in the world does that mean you're planning to stay in hong kong then up because i believe you're facing charges there is a correct. with the political prosecution i just faced the court trial 24 hours ago and i still need to go to court on 5th of august and also imply how beijing continuing to call the haas arrest and political prosecution is that he would only set of millions population almost $10000.00 people were arrested since last summer and $1600.00 of us were prosecuted including me bonds is such a pure battle we still never give up and on the upcoming primary election on this
12:08 pm
weekend we hope to set a clear signal to beijing kowtow to the communist regime is not an option for us do you think kerry has a point in saying that new security measures are needed in hong kong to avoid the massive and sometimes violent disruptions we've seen in the past or did tical crisis a soft up to go system reform escalating the situation and even allowing polish to call the house or will run and override on common law system to provide a rule by a hotline i guess that's not the way out no matter what happened was they'll continue to fight for freedom and also we wish the world to know that how the race of call home people and ex-pat live in the hall might be extradited to china and we might not be serving joe sentence in hong kong and in law and require you to sort this out joe's sentence in beijing that's the french generated by beijing live sentencing is not the things that we have imagined by activists in the previous day
12:09 pm
but that's not raise the threat generate by the company's offer what its ok the pro-democracy group used to lead a system that's been disbanded right as the security law the new security of all was being imposed has beijing won. i don't want to quit my colleague mc made life raise even i did was raise the risk of life sentencing is dozens means that sum up more local bar for us is need to face the same bastard but. we are not continue to run as the name of that resists though the activist group that we belongs to we still continue our fight in the local level and local level and we wish to have more global allies to spend what is such critical moment because time is what playing in hong kong already just one thank you very much for talking with us that was joshua wall an activist in hong kong and here
12:10 pm
right hong kong democracy activist joshua wang speaking to my colleague terry marsh and a little earlier today let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world the short form video at all it's at the hong kong market have to china and its new security law on the city google facebook and twitter have already stopped taking requests for user data from hong kong the u.s. is also looking at banning the chinese owned top which was shut down in india last week. more than a 1000000 residents of the japanese island of kish to have been told to flee their homes amid relentless rain the death toll from the recent downpours has risen to 50 according to local media and more heavy rain is said to be on the way. in colombia at least 7 people have been killed and dozens injured off to the contents off an overturned tank exploded in a fireball schools had gathered around the tank after the accident to try to siphon will feel that it
12:11 pm
a nice it was in an infinite. recursion of pandemic could push 1000000000 people into hunger worldwide that's the grim for one of germany's largest aid organization. the hill for has launched its campaign to support 5000000 of the world's poorest people the charity says it needs to raise 100000000 euros to help this situation as well because of the and demick. we're now joined by he is secretary general off the german charity vault he'll feel welcome to mr modi do all organizations say up to a 1000000000 people could be pushed into hunger by by this pandemic tell us how people already suffering from the consequences of climate change they are suffering from the consequences of wars of conflicts the coronavirus the
12:12 pm
corona. demick is now exploration is. increasing the chance of a war people fall into the trap so is actually accelerating the situation which is already there. right given that where does your organization stated goal to achieve 0 hang by 2030 stand. well unfortunately the number of hungry people is increasing since the year 2015 so we're at the moment it's 80200 it's 800000000000 people who are suffering from hunger so what we fear now is that there are actually more people. becoming hungry because of that because of the consequences of the lockdown situation because many people feel now the for example prices for food creasing people cannot
12:13 pm
feed their families anymore the transport facilities are. disrupted therefore people have to pay a lot more for their food and that's that's a that's an astonishing number 800000000 people going hungry. at the at the release of you organizations and your report earlier today an appeal was made not to leave the world's poorest countries. to deal with this crisis do you see wealthier countries richer countries coming together to support the countries that need help well germany has increased its aid for many developing countries 1550000000 euros more to be spent for to believe the consequences of the. i think that's a good sign we hope that other countries particularly the european union who have
12:14 pm
also shown signs to step up their aid to developing countries this is very much needed now in order to alleviate the consequences i just described all right. secretary-general. that's one of germany's biggest charities thank you. thank you. as in the showing last man attacking the boats of migrants trying to reach greece up to now the identity of the attackers has been unclear but our own investigations unit and the research collective belling cats have uncovered information suggesting they may have been linked to the greek coast guard at the instant all wrongdoing we will have more from a great minister in a moment but 1st this report i did obvious thank you and by. the sea off greece poses a puzzling question was
12:15 pm
a disturbing answer more migrant boats are leaving turkey for the e.u. but on the greek island of less post there hasn't been an increase in a rival's. there were 9000 people on this boat but anyone who is 16 year old from afghanistan through these pictures he said it was shortly after mosque men attacked them from ending the boat was in 3 quarters off last bus on the 5th of june this year the boy doesn't want to be dead. or much. to our mobile phone for much of the course 2 men have. received they are wearing black mark on their faces and one have nicely to make a call on or more. the view would be why we should connect it. we analyze dozens of similar reports and videos comparing them who's just coastlines and the position of the sun along was information from emergency calls official
12:16 pm
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 bolts on the open seas damaging them so they can't be steerage and leaving them adrift sometimes they even actively fools the boats back into true push water as a tactic known as push back. these prospects i need to lead against international law but it's difficult to establish for certain who these messman actually are even though the evidence is separately 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
12:17 pm
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 context you say you don't know all 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 haven't seen it in public
12:18 pm
statements made by represent. a few 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 respecting unusual 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. our correspondent barbara vessel joins us now from brussels on the story hey barbara it appears that there is overwhelming evidence of these push backs essentially people being denied to come ashore which is illegal so why has there been no outcry from the ranks of the e.u. . i mean e.u. observers here christine call the reaction of the official european union union a deafening silence there has been some reaction now because just on this monday
12:19 pm
the european parliament put this on the agenda and within one of its committees the commissioner for refugees over your hands and was heard and she said yes of course the european union cannot defend its borders and at the same time violate its regulations its laws of values and so she called again for these events to be investigated the problem here is who's going to do that basically even when the when h.c.r. last the refugee organization of the united nations. few weeks ago called on greece to investigate these events it is it ends up with greece investigating itself the european union simply has no prosecutor it doesn't have a police it doesn't have simply have the the possibilities to do this in an active manner and so this is something that sort of turns in itself and i'm sure we get to
12:20 pm
of infringement procedure would takes a long time we are just sort of running in circles. right. company but i'm hearing ok so why is the e.u. having so much trouble agreeing on a common refugee policy and a common aside and policy. that is quite simple because it is the most toxic issue ever in the european union it's even worse than talking about money since the refugee so-called refugee crisis in 2015 this has been sort of kicked up and around and about and since some use in european countries for most hungary blocking every attempt to find a common solution and other countries hide behind that and say ok if they don't participate we're not going to take in people every attempt to redistribution of refugees relocation of refugees whatever on a communal level failed to have been some single incidences where
12:21 pm
a group of the willing has said ok we'll take some people in this is a big whom it area an issue at the moment we need to solve it but in the end this is no closer to a serious real and fair solution than it was 5 years ago and it seems like a relatively hopeless case where lover stand by for a bit because the greek immigration and it is said it will be notice it archie he talks our city of today and pointed out the lack of solidarity within the e.u. let's have a quick listen to him there is not sufficient support for relocating people from the front live stage to the rest of europe we've come to have a 100 in 1000. you understand what your son service is that's a huge burden for our company that's a big number would be more support for other countries to help us with asylum seekers and refugees but at the same time you understand most european companies are not participating in a mechanism for the location of asylum seekers in
12:22 pm
a good huge bobert so what's been the easiest response to the demands that the greek government is making. they're going to throw up their hands like they've done in the past was italy i mean same problems there we've seen it i mean the whole right wing populist development in italy was fuelled by this like off sort of very key and yes it is there it is it exists it's a simple truth a european countries are not willing to take in the relatively large numbers and take refugees off the front line countries hands and they're not they haven't done it and they will not likely to do it in the future so this situation is just simply standing still and it is not likely to be resolved and that is what creates things and events like these push backs because the front line countries then think we have to help ourselves and we create these very nasty events in incidents that are after all illegal but it is not the political fault off the countries that are
12:23 pm
involved in it it is the fault of the whole european union in a way right that's part of a zone in brussels thank you barbara australia 2nd city melbourne has been ordered back into lockdown for 6 weeks from midnight on wednesday that's all for a single day rise of 191 new coronavirus cases the move comes as the border between the state of victoria to neighboring new south wales is sealed for the 1st time since the spanish flu pandemic well then a century ago. it's become a familiar scene one playing out all over the world and happy residents confined once again to their homes after a resurgence of the coronavirus this melbourne tower block was originally at the center of the latest outbreak but now alarming spikes in the wider community may not down for the whole of victoria's state capital. and that is war of the public
12:24 pm
health time of advise murray it's to re-impose starts through a stay at home restrictions for a period of 6 weeks there is simply no alternative other than thousands and thousands of cases. and potentially more many many people in hospital and the inevitable tragedy that will come from that. to move in melbourne follows other measures to contain the spread of the virus the neighboring state of new south wales is closing its borders to victoria for the 1st time in 100 years anyone found breaking the rules could face a hefty fine or even jail time the premier of new south wales explained why the step was necessary what is occurring in victoria has not yet occurred anywhere else in stride it's a new part of the pandemic and as such or it requires a new top of response until melbourne's latest outbreak australia had recorded far
12:25 pm
fewer cases than many other countries in the coronavirus pandemic the country's authorities hope swift and fair measures can keep it that way. now in german football that of braman face no it didn't hang in there relegation pay off that's the match up to fill the last boss that's still up for grabs in next season's going to sleep and after a goalless stroll at braman in the 1st mate the 2nd leg at hyde and i was the decide. hiden himes journey has taken them from 6 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 tuck out himself a former braman player putting it into his own net with the way goals counting as the tiebreaker braman now knew a draw would suffice heighten himes 1st major upset came after the break when
12:26 pm
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 free 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 90 full of minute to restore their lead as big team 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 higham fell short and remain in the 2nd division. that means relief of braman as they survive relegation and continue to be the longest serving club in the bundesliga. and you have to take it you debbie.
