this is deja vu news live from berlin back to school for children in germany many of them haven't been in a classroom for months because of the pandemic the question will protective measures keep students and teachers states. also coming up a big demonstration in berlin against 10 democrats refused to ignite the debate about limits on the right to public assembly most of the protesters did not wear
1:01 pm
face masks or physically distanced themselves to afghan troops battle islamic state militants attacking a prison for some of their fighters are behind bars prisoners staged a mass breakout look at the latest from a couple and. lashed out. to 2 american astronauts make history successfully completing now has 1st demand returned from the i s s involving a private company. i'm sumi so much god it's good to have you with us it is the 1st day back at school for some students here in germany mecklenburg west pomerania is the 1st of 16 german states to restart classes after a summer break but with a pandemic ongoing schools are having to adapt to a new normal after months of online learning and limited timetables germany has
1:02 pm
vowed to get back to daily schooling nationwide by the end of the summer many schools will be teaching fewer classes and several states have already announced that students will be required to wear face masks. and let's go to diffuse test and she is in rostock in west palm arabia so what measures are in place to prevent outbreaks at schools all sumi you might be able to tell behind me there are not many of these guys around the kids here having their break at the moment and they don't have to wear face masks also social distancing measures are not in place anymore so they can play football as they're doing now afterwards they will go back into their classroom and sit next to their best friend contact is not a problem the only thing they do you have to do is then wash their hands basic hygiene measures meaning avoiding to sneeze into each other's faces basically and but you might see one of the other mask around because i talk to some of the pupils
1:03 pm
and they say i want to protect myself i want to protect my grandparents so i'm doing it because i want to and some teachers might also ask the students to do so and so what's your impression about how things have been going and what are students and parents telling you. well their mixed feelings really because on the 170 degrees education is important and lockdown here started 5 months ago so basically over. almost half a year the students here that didn't come to school didn't have. seen which is coming back now and everyone is welcoming back nevertheless that is what some call a 2nd wave already around the infections of coronavirus rising in germany meaning there are some well some concerns but i talked to some parents let's have a listen. so vehement probably seems like we live on our own little planet here but
1:04 pm
i have to admit that i'm not too worried and i'm quite optimistic when it comes to the schools and the guidelines that have been developed the measures have been adjusted over and over again and the teachers are doing what they can to implement them so far that has worked quite well so we really have to thank the teachers and the principal they did a great job because we would be able to follow anything in the school if we talk to regularly. i guess there might be more to support the children might not support it but when they get infected they can bring these biases to the home and those. who live in the home might get infected so. what is the chances that new. test our schools are actually prepared for the possibility that the situation could get worse. well i talked to the hut master and she said we have seen a big push in digitalization all the schools have had an experience doing digital
1:05 pm
learning homeschooling be you go put in place again never the less here. that bit hesitant because they know education is important pushing the curriculum through is not all of it so the school is a place where you see your friends where you learn basic social skills so everyone here agrees they have to do and make the most of it but also at the rules that stay in place to avoid a 2nd wave that could come out. of these tests to reporting for us there in the state of mecklenburg west palm or anywhere just the 1st stage back at school thank you. here in berlin a big protest on saturday against pandemic restrictions has ignited a debate about the limits that can be placed on the right to public assembly the term minister for justice has affirmed that right but she also underscored that rules like wearing masks must be observed yet it's exactly those laws that the
1:06 pm
estimated $20000.00 protesters rejected. saturday's protest in berlin against the rules to fight the coronavirus demonstrators failed to keep their distance from each other and they didn't wear masks either politicians are dreaded. these are. on the one hand they're exercising their right to protest but there are rules which they disregard their behavior is playing with people's lives you make him leave them on the damage fight and fight them on the responsibility go hand in hand there's the freedom to exercise one's right to demonstrate but also a responsibility to abide by the rules. instead of a relaxation of the restrictions the bavarian state premier mako sudha would rather see a tougher enforcement by authorities to fight the virus if the police the tasteless muffed people who come from risk areas and don't take a coronavirus test or refuse to take once along with those who deliberately violate
1:07 pm
the measures must face a fine otherwise all of this makes little sense. infections rise in germany the best way to deal with the pandemic looks set to cause further debate. let's get some other headlines from around the world now it is the 1st full day of the new lockdown for australia 2nd largest city melbourne tougher measures including a nightly curfew are in place for the next 6 weeks of the state of victoria declared a state of disaster on sunday after a spike in co with 19 cases. and philippines president rodrigo to terra to is really imposing a lockdown in the capital manila and its surrounding provinces health workers call for the move after a surge in corona virus infections stricter restrictions will be in place for 2 weeks starting tuesday affecting about a quarter of the country's population. afghan forces are battling militants from the so-called islamic state after they attacked the prison
1:08 pm
holding hundreds of its members a gun battle broke out on sunday night after a suicide car bomber targeted the prison entrance at least 20 people have been killed and dozens more injured in the battle that is ongoing the attack comes after afghan special forces killed a senior islamic state commander and let's get the latest on that story with correspondent i mean that if he's in the capital kabul hi ali bring us up to date on what's happening in jalalabad so the prison itself has been secured the ministry of defense said that it's been cleared of all of the fighters which is a relief to the people of moore hard because that means after each teen hours they have some relief but the problem is that some of the fighters also took refuge in a nearby shopping plaza and now the problem is how do you fear that area as well so the curfew in the city has not yet lifted people are still stuck inside told not to
1:09 pm
go outside not to open stores and the days about to end so essentially they will have spent their entire day inside listening to the sounds of explosions and gunfire waiting for an end to this 18 hour nightmare of a must be a terrifying experience ali i mean what was the motivation behind the militants attacking this prison. you know they didn't release a specific statement of this is exactly why we did it of course it was yesterday that the afghan intelligence agency announced that they had killed the intelligence director for these fighters and you know they. did they really saw that as a sign of their success as a trial and against the so-called islamic state not on a stone and that prison that came under attack at least a 3rd of the prisoners of the 2500 prisoners in there where prisoners that were far that were caught under the banner of these dyas fighters. it could be something as
1:10 pm
simple as just trying to obviously get revenge and also to release their fighters what do you think all of this means for the prospect of peace and afghanistan it complicates it even more because we know that. actually i have been actively fighting each other they have very little respect for one another they constantly try to you know keep one out of the other's territory. and it raises more questions of ok if you declare peace with the toll of on what do you do with this and the problem with this group is that their leadership isn't quite so clear their motives aren't quite so clear and so the question becomes how do you negotiate with them who do you negotiate with what are you negotiating specifically because you know the taleban claim to be fighting against a foreign occupation so you know what their intent is with these fighters you don't fully know what to offer them and how to get them under control. that if you're
1:11 pm
reporting from kabul thank you so much thank you. now 6 years ago today militants from the so-called islamic state overran the district of an area in northern iraq inhabited by the minority over the days and weeks that followed the militants and their local sunni supporters executed thousands of men and boys and sold thousands of women and girls as sexual slaves to i asked militants throughout the territory and the rep recover sions of these crimes are still being felt hundreds of thousands of jesse's are living in refugee camps in the north of the country but over the last 2 months many families have returned to their ancestral homeland and singe are mainly because of covert $1000.00 which is hitting relief supplies and job opportunities in those camps but the city they're returning to offers little reconstruction has barely begun and

1:18 pm
you're watching news still to come on our show a new bridge in genuine it replaces the one that collapsed it 2 years ago after around the clock effort it's about to be inaugurated. but 1st 2 american astronauts have made a landmark splash down as the 1st commercial crewed mission to the international space station return to earth it was also the 1st splash down landing after a u.s. space mission since 1975 space x. and the u.s. space agency nasa are celebrating the success of the mission which they say will bring the free market to space exploration. as we are now just about 20 meters off the ocean this is the moment when spy 6 proudly went when no company has gone before. flashed out. as you can feel on your screen we have visual confirmation 1st by. the firm's landing capture glides into the gulf of mexico in the control room but through tame from space 6 a nasa the u.s.
1:19 pm
space agency that contract is it for this mission is pretty much complete so. even after the landing the danger wasn't over the dragon capsule weighs over $12000.00 kilo's for docking it and extracting the 2 astronauts inside a delicate endeavor teams currently working with a few private schools no one that spy 6 saw this coming several sight seeing but it's approaching that capsule with it gushing propellant few the pleasure boats were ordered to leave the area maybe a lady. there we can see the lift. in the end the dragon made it to shore of the water and we have our 1st view and astronauts doug hurley and bob behnken emerged planet. with the huge thumbs up and an optimistic message for the u.s. and the. moment just. given all that they're going to happen
1:20 pm
here again on the left doug hurley on the right mission accomplished. who pioneered public private partnerships in out of spice. and i think we're both super super proud to have been just a small part of the team accomplished. space flights back to the florida coast and bring in our capability back to america it's also a personal triumph a spy 6 found in a lawn musk public controversies had begun to overshadow his recent business successes. and i'm not very religious but i prayed for this one. very few but here it is this. space x. is next mission is planned for september and the firm is hoping it will launch spice tourists into orbit next year. separation for $35.00 pm pacific its goal dominating a new idea of commercial space travel nationals and one in which competition
1:21 pm
between the companies creates innovation and progress. and earlier we spoke to nasa watch as chief cowing who explained why this mission was so significant well it's interesting because the idea of putting humans in a capsule and launching him into space is that having him splash down into water isn't necessarily nude sifton as was mentioned in your piece we have a journey here in the states in 45 years we've ridden on cruise lines on soviet space russian spacecraft before the soviet space and the lead in lead and so we haven't had a chance to do this in a long time but def sister engineering the more important thing is that the spacecraft wasn't a government spacecraft it was bought by the government of the services rather walk by the government under a commercial contract with space x. they also have one with boeing so instead of the 10 trend over the past half a century of only flying people into space and govern their own spacecraft now are
1:22 pm
buying tickets and that's is the chance of going further than just a professional astronauts maybe commercial astronauts and maybe someday you're not . now to italy where a new bridge will be inaugurated in genoa replacing a structure that collapsed 2 years ago a crews worked around the clock to complete they punched a century it's due to open to traffic later this week get out is charlotte house impel has more. a beacon of hope rising from the depths of tragedy this leaky structure now stands in place in general as input around the bridge almost 2 years ago to the day 43 people were killed when a section of the bridge collapsed sending back was plummeting on to the riverbed. this is my watch. me my chance to have done the bridge might depend on how am had to be demolished on to the collapse. she still remembers the crack of the concrete crashing to the ground. but i financed it will be still a police complaint i'm
1:23 pm
a big i open the window and saw the bridge had vanished that i saw those 2 large lorries one white and one red right next to my house and in that moment a wave of anger washed over me because i knew those vehicles were coffins. we're marking made on. the scale of the disaster made the new construction a matter of national importance designed by general born star architect renzo piano the 1000 metre long span was completed in just over a year working to new day and night even during the worst of italy's coronavirus crisis its success is considered a model for the rest of italy. it was such a tragedy such a terrible scene but to do the work in one here and so fine. show that. from there also we can do any. good
1:24 pm
things but to the relatives who lost loved ones the new branch is no chorus for celebration a group of 30 sister brother in law and their 2 children were killed in the disaster she says the effort put into the construction is a fresh source of pain if each. leg. is tough to see the joy surrounding this construction. we would have been happy if this huge project was john earlier the old bridge should have been demolished before our families were destroyed the market in those 3 for me to force or at least through. a criminal investigation is underway after poor maintenance was blamed for the disaster the egg lay this was a national scandal one new construction alone went to fix the new bridge can't heal the wings of those who lost loved ones but it is a powerful step. piecing together
1:25 pm
a city torn apart by trying to quite literally reconnect with west and office this community a sign of hope and regeneration. like. it's quite simple and light. never forget that day but hopes the new bridge will represent a fresh start for genuine. that this is a wound which will stay with us but there always comes a moment when you need to move on to live in the present and accept the past this is the prize and tidy producing. sports now in formula one britain's lewis hamilton has claimed victory at his home grand prix at silverstone not even some really bad luck could stop hamilton from extending his lead in the driver's championship to 30 points. there were no home funds to cheer on lewis hamilton. but there was certainly plenty of patriotism on display
1:26 pm
a world war 2 era spitfire paid tribute to the efforts of the u.k.'s emergency services during the pandemic before hamilton predictably soared away from the puck . the british performance was so dominant that red bulls much for a distant 2nd decided to make a late pit stop that was a costly moves that meant the young dutchman couldn't take advantage when hamilton's front left tire blew on his last lap the mercedes months somehow trundled over the line and even he couldn't quite believe it was out. about it afterwards the relief was plain oh my god i was just pray and try to get around it too so. i need to get around the last 2 quarters but i got to did the 80 seven's wins for hummel to and then but just for away from michael schumacher all time record. let's get a recap now of our top story here on. american astronauts have splashed down at the
