along the roads amid fears that the camp's residents might spread the corona virus across the island last week moria was placed under lockdown after 35 cases were detected in the camp. as day broke some residents return to search for belongings among the remains the fire has been put out but over 12000 migrants are now left homeless once more in their lives they have nowhere to go what next for moria is a question many have been posing for years and answer from authorities has now become ever more urgent. let's get more on the story now with correspondent anthony charisse of a she joins us from athens hi anthony you have reported from morea frequently what are your sources there telling you about the situation on the ground right now. well kristie that is the prime minister came out just a few minutes ago with a with a nationally televised address and he declared the island of lesbos in

a state of emergency and this will be him this emergency status will be enforced perform months which is indicative of the scale of the exercise now which the authorities have to face and this basically includes getting these $12500.00 people into secure as shelters it also has to deal has to do with dealing with a health crisis there was an outbreak there was a covert 19 outbreak within the facilities and we understand that one of the reasons that these protests and fires kind of sparked were because they were in response to the isolation procedures that were about to be involved upon so what we're seeing right now is that authorities while the fire has been extinguished they're trying to find it open area that tense will be set up for these people to find immediate shelter in the meantime 500 unaccompanied children minors have been

sent to other locations the prime minister has also contacted brussels raising a bigger issue which is basically he was saying that greece can no longer shoulder the entire migration crisis and fend for these situations and they coming back to one point that you mentioned there's been a lot of speculation as to the cause of this fire what more can you tell us what more details are known about that at this point. well there's still no i mean the police the authorities are still investigating the causes the actual causes of this fire their computer. count one again is because of a protest because of the refugees that objected. isolation procedures that were about to be embarked upon by authorities after $35.00 cases. were found within the can they refuse they started setting up dumpsters ablaze and prohibited fire

fighting squads to come in and with gale force winds humping these flames it quickly spread and literally raise the entire. the entire town other towns however there is speaking of arson because at the same time there was this fire at the camp there were 2 other fires on the island in different locations so that's my view authorities here are calling this both her health and the national security issue and that's why the prime minister in his council meetings today has been meeting not just with local migration officials but also with the head of the intelligence and the military. correspondent and the current several reporting there from athens thank you so much for bringing us that update. the government crackdown on opposition figures appears to be ramping up the latest to be targeted was lawyer maxine's knock who was taken into custody by an identified masked men on wednesday according to an associate and identify people also try to

enter the apartment of nobel prize winning writer spent elective itch diplomats diplomats from different european union countries went to our apartment to show support alexi of it is now the only high profile opposition figure still sri. correspondent nic connelly is in the capital meant for us hi nick what is the latest you can tell us on the detained opposition figures. well as you mentioned. the 72 year old nobel prize winning writer the only major opposition figure still free and in her home country not been thrown out yet it was extraordinary scene of people out of her building today waiting for news after she had reported that unidentified people tried to cool her door get into her apartment she'd been receiving calls from unidentified numbers but the real news big news of today is

maybe you'll remember she disappeared off the streets of monday and it was extraordinary story of the attempted. by the regime and yesterday. today that she is now to be charged with trying to seize power here in belarus it seems not one of. someone we interviewed just the other day and. all 3 of them now facing that charge which carries a prison sentence if it would succumb to conviction makes it seems to be a concerted effort to really crack down on leading singers of this protest movement i mean how do you see this playing out. one has a road map to this no one has any idea where this is going that well that's what makes it so exciting because it's so scary for the people here who basically haven't had a political life in this country for a quarter century a quarter century during which one man called all the big shots but now it seems like the government is making good on its promise to crackdown on dissent and is

really willing to use sentences if people are not willing to be pushed abroad as has been the case with lots of leading figures including. his main challenger at that last election here and now arrests and violence police getting harder with corpses on the streets but people still tell you that they are willing to come out time and time again and that they believe the government able to arrest all of them . and what about external sector syria russia playing in the situation in belarus and where do you see a europe in this. it was a difficult situation on one hand russia coming out in very strong support for the go lucas shank who. is expected to go to moscow next week hootin has already said that he's willing to provide police special forces an extra support for the terrorists if the protests were to get more violent and it hasn't been looking like it's going to happen here but what is going to happen and what's going to happen the russians are going to support the regime here financially may be write off some debt and also there are russian specialists and and advisors here working on the

ground that are supporting the regime in terms of propaganda work in state t.v. that is already fact on the other hand the european hand is a lot weaker apart from sanctions that have been introduced time and time again that don't really achieve very much they're all pretty able to hurt the regime too much it's more about symbolic gesture support allowing better since it's politics all in was or in vilnius and to not recognize the result of this election here bill that's very difficult to see what the european union what the western world can do for these protests right now. is an economy reporting for us there in minsk thank you very much. now to some other stories making headlines around the world at least 10 people have been killed and dozens wounded in a bombing in the afghan capital kabul officials say the attack targeted the country's vice president who sustained minor injuries no one has claimed responsibility and the taliban denied involvement. rescue workers have recovered

$22.00 bodies from a rock slide at a marble mine in pakistan more than a dozen miners remain trapped under the rubble in the northwest of the country the cause of the cave in which happened on tuesday has not been determined. top police officials in the u.s. city of rochester new york have resigned following the death by suffocation of a black man in police custody earlier this year newly released video of the incident had triggered days of protests state prosecutors are now investigating. british prime minister boris johnson says he will push ahead with legislation that could contradict the breaks agreements made with the european union including how northern ireland is approached under that deal the u.k. province of northern ireland will continue to enforce e.u. customs rules to avoid a hard border with the republic of ireland the deal is considered crucial to protect peace and stability in northern ireland and it was a precondition for trade talks that are currently underway the u.k.

has admitted that the new legislation breaches their international obligations and could jeopardize trade talks. let's go right to london to massa standing by for us there hi farragut explain what this righteous legislation really means. well just to understand this is the new deal that the u.k. government is proposing it's an internal u.k. law that gives the u.k. government power to basically override to withdraw agreements and the withdrawal agreement is part one of the negotiation between the u.k. and the e.u. it's an agreement was so cool dubose agreement that the u.k. and the you had concluded and that the u.k. no it myths itself is going to be breached if the u.k. government carries out this plan it also has admitted itself a government minister has admitted that it doesn't reach into national a result because this withdrawal agreement is signed is an international treaty and also because of the huge controversy here in the u.k.

for example back benches have come out conservative backbenchers that have said well i don't really want to sign a no that's breaks international law and. uphold our commitments that we have made . the question is is the u.k. government really going to present it in the end to its m.p.'s for signature policy because it could be also just a bluff it could be but the you come government is just now so. signaling to the european union we're big prepared to play hardball and you better just give us more than what we want in the current negotiation about a free trade deal so 2 parts one that would draw agreement as now we're in the current negotiations for the future between the e.u. and the u.k. about a possible free trade deal here it's obviously a matter of trust the d.e.u. needs to trust the u.k. to go any further with these new trade talks well this comes as they use chief

breaks a negotiator michel barnier he is in london for talks so where do you think all of this leaves negotiations on the stitcher of the trade deal. what exactly at the moment the 2 sides are grating and this future trade deal is something that the u.k. government relieving wants and needs it's very important for example for the manufacturing industry that the companies you create companies and e.u. companies all use the trading and frictionless of the single market open borders and u.k. companies don't want to lose that privilege so this is all about future trade talks and this is good being jeopardized before he had a very stern reaction from most of the front in light she said that this is very concerning and that is on the mind strawson would be a breach of international law the other sites to do this development is of course

the international reputation that the u.k. house so a government that's being prepared to break international law how much can it be trusted also by other future parties by other countries that might want to sign free take trade deals such as the us so it's a very risky step on the side of the u.k. government. for us in london a thank you so much. ireland might be famous for its pubs but it's currently the only country you're. where the majority of bars are still closed due to the corona virus pandemic thousands of jobs have been lost during the almost 6 month long shutdown gastro pubs have been allowed to reopen but so-called wet pubs that don't serve food remain shut. this 19th century pub is famed for its live music it has attracted celebrity visitors from near and far including bono sundra bullock and clint eastwood but everything is quiet now no

in the political spectrum. yes no extremely timely it could be from last week's headlines and i was able to talk to you earlier before the films for me are here in venice and she told me that she thought it was crucial that the film be seen now because she thinks that the most pressing political issue in germany at the moment is how to fight right wing extremism because of the frightening new rise in support for far right ideology let's have a listen at what she said. in a document we have 13 percent of voters here in germany supporting a far right party they have sent in federal parliament and in the states to get the food they were fringe party in such a time now they're becoming mainstream we've had many deaths already there was harm no someone tried to attack a synagogue i'm now it's escalating right now one of my duties and i was she's looking like this is not. ok so scott as we hear there it is timely i understand

there's also an autobiographical element to this so tell us what inspired the director. yeah the director or thought hein's actually spent 10 years in the far left activist group this depicted in the film she assures me. it was never as dramatic her experience as the experience in the film she was never involved in anything of violent never held a weapon or did any property damage but she said the emotional journey of the character and also the questions that the young woman in the film asked herself basically how far she willing to go to defend her ideals are the exact same ones that she asked herself and that she went through as a young woman. shall come full blame the messenger and also great what sounds like a great film scott and we see that you're wearing the mask tomorrow the entire world so i take it you're a fan but what are at this point your favorites or your favorite to win the golden lion. you know i'm not sure if this film. will have

a chance or not i thought it was quite strong and so and the political aspects of it will definitely have an appeal for the jury here but if i have to pick my absolute favorite it would be pieces of a woman a film starring in that's a curvy as a woman who loses her baby in childbirth a very strong personal drama that really blew me away especially curvy as an as an actress and then a documentary that screened here and called. about people who didn't become refugees but stayed in the world torn areas of the middle east and struggle to survive in those war zones those 2 films i think were the most powerful that i've seen so far here in venice and we'll see if they have a chance to take home the gold lion come saturday and scott while we have you with us we just mentioned the oscars is now trying to address the lack of diversity in the award ceremony of the association has now announced new diversity roles tell us what they do and if that is going far enough. yes these new rules only

apply to candidates for the best picture oscar is the top prize of the oscars and they won't come into effect until the 2025 oscars so people have a bit of time to adjust to them but basically the in-force diversity in front of the camera and behind the camera basically at all levels of productions only films that have diverse casts the have a diverse production staff will be considered for the best picture it could have are quite serious consequences because of the 10 films that were nominated this year for best picture only 8 of them will qualify under these new rules will be interesting to see how big an impact this will have on the stories that hollywood decides to tell but i think what the academy is trying to do with these new rules is to basically force hollywood forward that they don't think that hollywood will change on its own to make itself more diverse but it has to be pushed pushed in that direction and we'll see as these rules take effect what impact that has to have is scott roxboro reporting for us from venice thank you so much. now the

a highway because your question between 3 called good ends so we are lucky to have effect 600000 stalks to a flag twice a year over year all that almost all the world population of whites talks about how the $50000.00. 6000. so we are lucky to be in the best highway of the jail with stalks. rather than taking a shorter route over the mediterranean like smaller birds stalks fly over land to catch up board streams of warm pockets to write a thermos to conserve energy. the landfill is like a pit stop for the storks to just stay for the night to rest to feed and gather strength before setting off on the next leg. in the last 10 years they know to look for. net you are places where you catch a thief but for garbage there of course they have plastic bags and stuff like that
