in minsk he has covered yesterday's huge demonstration and joins us now on the phone nic a 2nd weekend of massive protests and we're hearing that to a position leaders have now been arrested what can you tell us. well exactly there had been fears that people would simply get tired of this process the people wouldn't turn out in numbers as big as the previous weekend which saw the biggest demonstration in modern belorussian history but indeed they did and it looks likely that there were more people here than even the weekend before any sort of happens who also people seem not afraid of through all those government threats to arrest people demonstrations people turning out with their pets with bringing small children and prams. kind of extraordinary scenes against the backdrop of that for the bottom from. him flying a. mention that. he was even quoted as saying the rights of he didn't because when he was looking at his helicopter he thought that the numbers were low until today's

arrests well we have heard that crucially the leader of the strike at the news track actually one of the biggest businesses here in belarus has been detained as has someone from the opposition helpful this has been promised. that the weekend would be given to protests to have a think about their position and as of today because more would show who's in charge and bring consequences for people who are still. defying government. yesterday was brandishing a gun when he got out of his his helicopter trying to. talk saying attempted showing strength but it seems to have backfired i was on the street when . people were just laughing at. the ridges emerge and they will release by the government press him sitting in a kind of emergency room with his press secretary and his 15 year old son wearing a flak jacket and then there were further images of him thanking the right police

for protecting his. office his palace presidential palace all of this might work for people who are away from him. oh mark just to the people here in the capital it's all kind of you know crashing after everyone is going to look like what you think you can achieve with this kind of rhetoric. meanwhile opposition leaders from london to an oscar is due to meet u.s. deputy secretary of state stephen begin in lithuania what do we expect from that meeting briefly if please. i think it's unclear what concrete steps can be taken now and the recipient of sanctions time and time again and haven't thought about change but i think the important symbolically to show that the outside world is getting attention and is supporting these protests or these protests among for their election i think people here and that is the crucial thing that the that the world hasn't got 100. in minsk thank you.

airport and they report they were turned into a courtroom heavily shackled his wrists and ankles and he was surrounded by police officers. when the session got underway there was a deeply emotional saints where 24 of the victims. had the opportunity to testify in front of court as to the effect of the attack it had on their lives and while most were defiant. there was obviously a lot of trauma still there amongst those who testified but the images that we've seen in our report that runs in town. hardly displayed any any emotions did he show any kind of remorse that whole well the gunman reportedly showed little emotion throughout throughout the day. however there was one moment where the mother of one man who was killed by the government she directed her attention

to them directly and spoke to him directly and she said she forgave him for killing his son and she said she had no hate or desire for revenge now terence apparently reported the noted in response and then blinked heavily and then wiped his eye balling the exchange so there was some level of maybe possibly something that. he already has pleaded guilty and is facing a life sentence possibly without parole that will he speak in court. well the government dismissed his legal counsel earlier this year and he's chosen to represent himself which has. led many to speculate that he may try some point to try and grandstand or saying some kind of message out to who knows what. now authorities have taken steps to try and. avoid death or to prevent that from

happening. limited the number of journalists and the courtroom and out in the quarter to 10 and there and they are allowed to report twice a day once at lunch time and i want to let all of the day. but there is definitely no absolute way of preventing him from signing that's saying something so. we'll just have to see what happens in the coming days i'll swear to that thank you very much thank you. thark a marco unstoppable storm laura for the caribbean and the gulf of mexico leaving massive destruction in that way at least 11 people have died in the dominican republic and haiti both storms are expected to hit the u.s. gulf coast soon for. storm moore has already left a deadly mark on the dominican republic in its wake flooding that's left homes

a crowd but the risk of infection did not stop supporters from taking to the streets of munich. it's also that even if it is even if it is corona we are partying tonight till the end till the end in this case it's a big event you have to celebrate and if you add to the sense and the mask secretary now. those precautions went out the window as fans came together to celebrate the sick time for variants have won the comp. titian special praise was reserved for coach hanzi flick he revived the team's flagging fortunes after taking a bit of a break ins mid-season. god it's just great they deserve it after the season they've had it's thanks to a handy flick who wasn't even in charge for the whole season it's unbelievable. meanwhile long faces in paris p.s.g.

had invited several 1000 fans to watch a game on a giant street in its stadium when it was disappointed supporters spilled out onto the streets they vented bashed a stray sion with flares and fireworks requiring the intervention of the paris police. but i'm pretty hard from did i view sports joins me in the studio actually it's fair to say that wasn't the shootout that many had anticipated no but since a renowned for their attacking prowess but this was a typically tense affair there's no crowd there but you still got the sense of the occasion and straight away after maybe after 5 minutes or so this is going to be about a handful of moments and those handful of the moment they belonged to beyond the 1st one you think of as kingsley come on their only goal scorer in the match interestingly he's born in paris and pretty much right he's been a footballing sense in the p.s.g. academy it was his goal that was the difference that was one of those moments obviously hansie flix his moment was deciding to pick a man who wasn't in the team and his rationale was well he used to play for p.s.g.

so he might be axed from out about it's a very retro grade a decision that he made there in some sense mental noise a couple of the moments belong to him as well in goal he was absolutely incredible 2 big saves and he's very much the reason that buying can go forward with such aggression and confidence because i know they've got a colossus behind a little bit of life insurance absolutely batman's so you mentioned a couple who are what was by a single secret ingredient can you put your finger on the mount rushmore the. created maybe men will know it has to be one of them that you put up there kingsley come on naturally thomas modification lumps out of one law that was a crucial job loss not but i think if you put want to head of all the others it's hansie flick is the man who when he was announced as buying coach the they announced it and the narrative was strider wife for good reason or this is just a replacement this is just a temporary appointment until they get the real one their big 9 and so behind start winning through december and i roll on on this momentum just rolls on and then the

board finally realizes this is this is our guy and his 1st trick that he pulled was that he had to get people like noir like mullah to find a cutting edge again that had sung much success world cups champions league already and save in domestic totals how do you give them their age and so he was able to reinvigorate those players and he did something really special that the board loved as he's gone and want to talk to without putting the checkbook you manages the frames by not asking for money he's not going to the board enough for money and he's gone with existing resources and he's pulled off something historic so by an incredibly successful club in german football how big of an achievement is this trouble. brings you among the a late you know it's a footballing act of immortality to win the treble champions league you know carries that top of white anyway but to come from way they've come from to do it it's about being 4th in november 2nd the coach appointing

a new one and then rolling on and on and on and going on the fate of the 6 months and the champions league is such a perfect crowning moment for this team that was able to regenerate and i play the big months we'll i'm in for german football it's people from outside look inside well they've won i league titles in a row the league kompany good but it's just about how good these guys are not what's lacking in dortmund and shell corps and everyone else they're an incredible side but they're an incredible club because every time the moment comes there's something inside of these players when i play for this thing to think that the best at the right moments and then how do you know useful thank you. you're watching the news here's a reminder of the top story we're following for you today tens of thousands of defy the ban on demonstrations in fellow rose to demand the resignation of hardline president alexander look sankoh gains want any could use the military to break up the protests. and that's it from me and the news team for now up next business news
