even after the sun went down the shooting continued so did the protest. oh the look out here look how many are still down on her doctorate in nigeria out of leader that we are not whether a sign that new whether or not we love freedom over god and i thought oh you heard me not the army has denied responsibility claiming reports of soldiers being involved were fake news but footage of the shooting quickly made its way on to social media. please tell people please tell people people are going to run they're shooting at them and the like it's ok cool the day after the shooting and nigeria is in shock the government has promised an investigation into what happened but protesters don't have too much trust in authorities at the moment. have and let's cross live now to lagos in nigeria where correspondent funny char is standing by
1:04 pm
funny you were there you witnessed this violence what happened. at 1st everything was actually quite peaceful just like 2 in the past 2 weeks here in this neighborhood very close to a studio you will see people listening to music chanting of course and to police brutality something that they were asking for for the past weeks not just this time around the 4 years back and so yes that was just a very normal beginning but then the dynamics started to change my cameraman and me witnessed people gunmen on bikes and said this site and they just all to to shoot people. lucky enough to find one way to to to hide or to hunker down a nearby parking lot from where we could witness what is going on at the demonstration site unfortunately couldn't exit this place with a demonstration to place and the scene was rather chaotic people be a praying around us others are singing the national anthem saying i'm ready to die
1:05 pm
for my nation and then also we witnessed people injured 20 carried to this area where some of the protesters actually stayed overnight so they were tense around us as well staying overnight usually and that's were some of the injured people have been a pool too so rather horrific scenes that we have witnessed last night funny who fired the gun shots. conflicting reports on that i can only tell you what we have seen what we have seen was people riding on bikes dressed up in come off lodge entering this place and try and starting to shoot but this is not just 2 gunshots these are massive gunshots hundreds of hundreds for at least 15 minutes with a small bushel break and the restarting and obviously coming floods here means military know what we're hearing from amnesty international they are saying that they do have clear evidence that this was the nigerian security force that this that again the authorities here are saying that the forces who did this they are
1:06 pm
beyond their control so clearly they're not clarifying what actually caused this mass yesterday tell us more about that official line the official line from the authorities the official line from the government and perhaps you can also put it into the broader context for us because these protesters had these protests they have been happening for weeks out today. exactly well the old story is just like they have been trying to apologize when these protests started the day apologized that police brutality obviously is not a good thing and they are going to help everyone to cultivate who is randomly killing civilized people going about their daily lives and so there's a lot going on that comes to the original goal of these protests when it comes to what happened last night again the state's governor here is taking to twitter and he's expressing basically his his his shock about what happened but at the same time he's also saying that he did say people should stay at home peaceful protests
1:07 pm
or should stay at home and abide by the curfew basically by that expressing that anyone who was outside yesterday was outside illegally i was protesting illegally we didn't hear anything yet from the nigerian president president bihari you buy it comes to what some people here tagged as a massacre again others are using the hash tag. bloody to stay in nigeria so when it comes to the authorities there is no taking responsibility for this at this point what they're trying to do is is is is rather trying to say we are making sure to protect the citizens so please abide by the curfew stay at home until this is over funny char and laid thank you. all more than 100000 people in germany southern state of bavaria are largely confined to their homes after coded infections there skyrocketed in one particular town restaurants day care centers they have been shut and most public gatherings banned coronavirus
1:08 pm
cases are on the rise in the country. bash has got no land in bavaria a mountainous on the austrian border the number one coronavirus hot spot in germany the number of new cases that in the last week is 5 times above the threshold for a high risk area as of choose day locals have back in lockdown and only allowed to leave their homes with a valid reason. the number of new daily cases in germany is rising nationwide with the south and the west worst hit more than 129 areas and deemed high risk as the 2nd wave hits but lynn authorities are urging people to wear masks in all crowded places where social distancing isn't possible mosques a compulsory at markets well queuing and on some shopping streets tonight the public is largely remaining calm but. of course we're afraid but not in the sense
1:09 pm
that i think about it all the time it's good that we're protecting ourselves just like before those gentlemen i still live with my parents so i won't go to panic buying but i already found it bad the 1st time around and this time to. think it meant but it that's it i think we're better prepared this time around compared to the 1st time. i see how people are behaving and it's much better. but what it means for us i'm in berlin for the 1st time in 10 months and of course i'm a bit afraid. that this in you know in political spheres pressure is growing for more involvement of the parliament in coronavirus decision making but in this talk president both wrote to m.p.'s on monday saying that parliament's world as lawmakers must be more distinct in the handling of the pandemic a polite reminder that in germany's democracy parliament makes the laws not the government. and joined some bash just got in the land by yulia south delhi yulia
1:10 pm
tell us why are instructions there so high. well on monday when the lockdown measures were announced minister president varia suggested that it also be connected to a party that happened here in the area others have alleged that the close. area of austria which has been a hot spot in this put into lockdown since last week could have also been a source of new infections but local authorities here are saying that there is no clear indication that one event triggered the spread of the virus it is a widespread event the virus is everywhere here and they can't trace it back to one single event. so how are people there coping with the lockdown well people here are going about their business they are walking their dogs they're
1:11 pm
going to the bakery and shopping they're doing what they are allowed to do they say that they are ok with the new restrictions with the stay at home order if that helps bring the infection numbers down obviously they're not very excited of having to spend more time at home but what they say is that they're lucky that they live in a beautiful mountainous area and that they are still allowed to go out for a walk. tell us a little bit more about the local economy because it's highly dependent on tourism what does that mean for the lock down. the situation is troubling for people here many owned hotels have businesses restaurants or shops and what we have seen today is a lot of these. situations where they are closed we have seen hotels locked down a restaurant closed and that is a big loss in income for the owners 2500 taurus were here and had to leave suddenly yesterday at 2 pm when the lockdown came into effect and people are worried that
1:12 pm
these 2 important weeks where a lot of people are on holiday it is a school fall holiday season that a lot of you. money that was meant to come in won't and that they will have lost it thank you so much. reporting from best has gotten a lot and we appreciate it well germany is of course far from alone in grappling with the resurgent pandemic governments across the continent are spradling to contain a 2nd wave of corona virus infections so what is the situation in some of the biggest hotspots we go 1st to spain which is nearing 1000000 coated 19 infections standing by for us in severe. scholtz how is the country they are coping with the latest strike. there's a situation in spain it's once again very tense and what makes it even worse is that the pressure on the health system is reputably increasing i received
1:13 pm
a message from a medical doctor who works in a local hospital in sydney are yesterday and what she wrote didn't sound like a cry for so let me just quote. she writes i'm sending you this message because he opposes so we are worried the numbers that sky rockets of sky rockets as an emergency unit this will it's horrible and it gets even worse not alarmist realistic and she also says that she fears that in the coming days even going to get worse still i'm afraid. from space. and belgium is also one of the corona hotspots in europe with new restrictions in place since monday barbara vessel standing by in brussels how is the belgian government trying to get the outbreak under control that the government is desperately trying to stave off a 2nd real walk down so they've closed all the restaurants said they have put out
1:14 pm
to nightly curfew you're not supposed to go out at night at all anymore limit to the sale of alcohol everything we've already seen in france but they also peeling to its citizens to sort of stick to the rules you're not supposed to meet more than one other person outside of you direct family and so they're really playing for time but the figure is seem to be running away for them they've seen a 70 percent increase of new infections throughout the last 10 days and they also fear that by mid november all the emergency beds in the hospitals could be full so desperate holding measures and they don't know yet whether this is going to work and poland was praised for successfully controlling the virus in march and april olivia cortez is in warsaw what's the situation now. the situation at the moment is really alarming earlier this year in spring poland introduced one of the earliest and toughest lockdowns of all of europe and was hit
1:15 pm
less hard tell every right now the government is failing to curb the infection grades we hear more and more reports from hospitals that cannot take patients anymore and at the moment the government even turns the national stadium and more so into a field hospital to hear reports that similar emergency entity's growth is published in the rest of the country this is that is not breaking down yet but we expect it to reach its limits and a couple of weeks to us thank you so much. and i was going to check of some other developments in the corona virus pandemic the czech republic has announced it's limited movement to essential trips to work family shopping and medical consultations it comes after the country will ported a new record level of 12000 confirmed cases in one day researchers in the u.k. are planning to deliberately infect volunteers with the virus that causes covert 19

a vatican enemy of pelvis to aid his prosecution was acquitted in april. on nasa spacecraft has briefly landed on an asteroid called venue over 320 kilometers from earth the spacecraft rock and dust samples they collected them then scientists hope that it will allow them to learn more about how planets formed and life began down declared. the 2 words that nasa scientists have waited for since 2016 all right. when robotic spacecraft osiris rex started its journey to the asteroid. for the past 2 years of its mission was rex has been orbiting the asteroid looking for the perfect spot to land for only a brief encounter. a few seconds almost like a kiss on the surface was all the time osiris rex had to grab rock and dust samples
1:18 pm
from the asteroid seconds that have been here in the making room and. do. you think i don't want to hear. that but i can tell you that everything went well just exactly perfect which is kind of the hallmark of this team we have consistently beating expectations over and over again we have overcome the amazing challenges that this asteroid has thrown at us and the spacecraft appears to have operated flawlessly it was the 1st time nasa has touched down on an asteroid but it could be a week before scientists know if and how much the spacecraft scrapped still the mission is already a success i mean like every we're actually pulled. sauf. is a sample collection was successful osiris rex will begin its long journey home and return to earth in 2023. and we're joined now by david brown
1:19 pm
an astronomer at the university of warwick in the u.k. welcome to the program thank you for joining us why is this mission so important good morning this is a really important mission because it will teaches a lot about the early history of the solar system we think that venue is a primordial objects so we think it hasn't changed very much since that time and so by studying the material that we get back from the asteroids we can really investigate what the conditions were like when the planets formed we can compare them to now to see how they've changed over time and how they've all interacted together and really learn how the solar system got to how it is now i don't know and we have to mention if this is a 4 year journey in order to search for those answers over over 300000000 kilometers the mission it's only halfway through sol so what do you see as the trickiest parts thankfully i think the trickiest part is already done i think that was the actual touchdown untag maneuver yesterday because of the
1:20 pm
distance to venues that had to be done completely all that had to be done completely remotely it can be done in real time because of the time delay in sending signals because the surface of the asteroid was a lot more rubble strewn than the team were expecting when they 1st got there and the spacecraft have to maneuver through some quite tight spaces it seems have been successful so far so i think that was the trickiest bit and hopefully the rest of the mission should be relatively straightforward is it clear that they got what they were hoping to get from the asteroid. unfortunately not yet there were photographs taken of the maneuver as it took place because the antenna of the spacecraft wasn't pointed towards the earth we haven't received those yet those should come through in the next couple of days and there are other tests that the spacecraft can do over the next week or so that will confirm whether it has collected material or not if it hasn't then there is an alternative site the team
1:21 pm
can try and they will have a 2nd go at this if they need to so take us a little bit deeper through the timeline i mean like when can least start to hear for example about the results. well those photos will give us an initial idea and there's a lot you can learn about the surface of the asteroid from photographs so as i was coming through we can start to analyze some of the surface data the actual material itself should return to earth in 2023 that's when the space craft to show you want to go back to earth so hopefully towards the end of the 2023 and into 2024 we can start to get some results in and really analyze this material to see what we can learn david brown astronomer at the university of warwick thank you for all it's less than 2 weeks to go before americans elect their next president a 2nd term for donald trump or a switch to challenger joe biden people around the world are following these campaigns especially if they have personal ties to the country aleksandr phenomena

good news for the conservative polish government the current you ass of ministration sees warsaw as an essential ally in a deeply trump critical europe and in return america supports poland in a number of important areas such as defense and energy security that might all change if joe biden gets elected. joe biden doesn't have many friends in the region says mayor krupa most people here are conservative and prefer a trumps agenda and you know. they like it's rational business oriented approach. and i support his efforts to secure the border to make it more difficult for margaret to get. sophia courant her family in the u.s. will certainly vote for trump and although she doesn't follow american politics closely there are things she likes about him. he seems to be very religious he
