thank you even after the sun went down the shooting continued so did the protest deep into the night holding the gun here look at how many are still down on her got shot in nigeria out of 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 like they're likely to ok. 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. that and let's cross live now to lagos nigeria where correspondent funny the char is standing by funny you were there you witnessed this violence what happened. at
3:04 pm
1st everything was actually quite peaceful just like doing 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 witness that people gunmen on bikes and to the side and they just started to shoot at people we were 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 side unfortunately couldn't exit this place where the demonstration took place and the scene was rather chaotic people we have praying around us others we are singing the national anthem saying i'm ready to die for my nation and then also we
3:05 pm
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 where some of the injured people have been pools to so rather horrific scenes that we have witnessed last night funny who fired the gun shots. there 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 and hundreds for at least 15 minutes with a small short break and the restarting and obviously coming flush 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 did this then again the authorities here are saying that the forces who did this they are beyond their control so clearly they're not clarifying what actually caused this
3:06 pm
mess 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 have these protests they have been happening for weeks out today. exactly one of the all sore it 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 i call to bill 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 or should stay at home and abide by the curfew basically by that expressing that
3:07 pm
anyone who was all it said yesterday was outside illegally i was protesting illegally we didn't hear anything yet from the nigerian president president hard columns 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 is rather trying to say the are making sure to protect the citizens so please abide by the curfew stay at home until this is over funny char in lagos thank you. now more than 800000 people in germany southern state of bavaria are largely confined to their homes after covert infections there skyrocketed in one particular town schools restaurants daycare centers have been shut and most public gatherings banned coronavirus cases are rising fast across germany. bash has got no
3:08 pm
land in bavaria and maintenance on the austrian border nivea 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 are back in. diane and only allowed to leave their homes with a valid reason the number of new daily cases in germany is rising nationwide with the size 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 that i think about it all the time it's good that we're protecting ourselves just
3:09 pm
like before us but as 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 does what 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 is a little nerve in political spheres pressure is growing for more involvement of the parliament in coronavirus decision making but in this talk president volved wrote to m.p.'s on monday saying that parliament's role 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. joined from bash just got in the land by yulia delhi yulia tell us why are infections there so high. well
3:10 pm
on monday when the lockdown measures were announced mr president very. suggested that it all could 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 and it's 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 people here are going about their business they are walking their dogs they're going to the bakery in shopping they're doing what they are allowed to do they say
3:11 pm
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 these 2 important weeks where a lot of people are on holiday it is
3:12 pm
a school fall holiday season that a lot of these. the 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. and let's get more now on the rising coronavirus cases in germany i am joined by a doctor a lot of yellow he is president of the robert costa institute germany's leading scientific and biomedical institution for public health welcome to the program and thank you so much for joining us at this critical time. i'd just like to to ask you because the leader of bavaria c.s.u. marcus at our has warned today that the coronavirus is at risk of spiraling out of control in germany how bad is it. well actually the numbers are rising over the weeks in particular since july so we're going to be very proud of the
3:13 pm
chancellor control this virus is. that we all over control of our cells behavior it is of utmost important but he goes to the roots. basically keeping a distance from other people not to get across or to promote close groups and if you do this control. and i mean this isn't an appeal that we have we've heard before from you an appeal for the public to do more to stop the spread of the virus things like mask social distancing it's been your recommendation all along so why do we still have these cases rising so rapidly you know another record on saturday was announced in germany are people just not listening. well actually it's a long time this is so obvious and people get teak and i only can truly understand this and obviously also a number of young people that are executives is on the rocks and so obviously we
3:14 pm
have to take care of these people because to do that we can only come true is everybody here in germany sticks to the saloons we can't control it we see that particularly our teams. or social gatherings where many people come together in close contacts these are particular settings that this virus is easy to screw and if we control these places and put a clear from what we knows it's going to be cried out confidence so we don't use them in your prayers at workplaces or competence protection but it's mostly come together in privacy in parties also. in services and their ratings and i think these are all going to. be can really control them we shouldn't have too many of these events and then the chorus. has a chance to get squared there's also
3:15 pm
a big debate going on in the country what i think high risk areas we mentioned in our piece there that there are more than 100 now in the country about whether they should be sealed off how effective do you think a complete lockdown of high risk areas might. well the most important element is really that we do not. bet is the most important issue here and those who are infected all of those who are coroutine basically those who have been to. start to use to stereotype because they had contact to answer to people this is the most important issue cortinas. base it's a very important number and people who are infected staying isolated this is whole control who swims how prepared are the hospitals to deal with a potential rise in cases arise at the rates that we have been seeing that that
3:16 pm
have been rising quite rapidly. one of the hostages a drone will prove there are 2 reasons why it is firstly we have a higher number of intensive care units this is a very high number that comes to the total amount of population and secondly of course we are fluent from the 1st time the 1st. group of march so basically you can also control the patients much better as hospitals can know. basically remember out there are stuff out there that's the only and there is to the chance that you basically post-polio so-called elective surgery so that it can also rise and almost benefits they are on what on earth we have more person or group picture stuff is also really a. contrast to the 1st march and april creek where we didn't have enough protective
3:17 pm
pro protective. substances like mass and glass and deception. so basically we are on the whole. better prepared it's good to know what and the hygiene has more in order and snow never understood it appears to have. plays a mortgage and matters and this is basically no much better than it is in. so just to be clear because you know what the message that we have been hearing is that this is now potentially the 2nd wave here in fact some people have already been calling it the 2nd wave. and one thinks back to the images for example italy for example where they didn't have enough hospital beds where the cases rose extremely rapidly in the country you do not foresee such a situation happening in germany with case numbers that are like the ones that you have been seeing in recent days and rising at the rates that you have been saying.
3:18 pm
if you could call it the only moment we can manage and that's true but only the cohen group going to nominate. these groups and they're going to such. i want to thank you so much for joining us dr a lot of viola president of germany's robert costa institute we really appreciate your time and expertise so you are. well here's a look at some other developments in the coronavirus pandemic the czech republic has announced it is limited movement to essential trips to work family shopping and medical consultations it comes after the country reported 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 the controversial technique could speed up development of

a vaccine to help end the pandemic if it receives approval and the philippines has lifted a ban on non-essential foreign trips by filipino nationals the government has gradually eased travel restrictions to bolster the economy which slipped into recession earlier this year let's get a quick check of some other stories making news around the world at least 34 members of afghanistan's security forces have been killed in attacks by the taliban in the northern takar province according to afghan officials the taliban attacked the government soldiers while they were sleeping the rising violence comes to spite ongoing peace talks between the afghan government and the taliban in qatar. australian police are investigating the alleged transfer of vatican funds to australia during the trial of former vatican treasurer george pell for child sex abuse this follows italian media reports that 700000 euros were sent by a vatican enemy of pells to aid his prosecution hell was acquitted in april.
3:20 pm
and nasa spacecraft has briefly come into physical contact with an asteroid called benu over 320000000 kilometers from earth well it was it had this probe it collected rock and dust samples that scientists hope 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 was cyrus rex started its journey to the asteroid. for the past 2 years of its mission but sarah's 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 from the asteroid seconds that have been here since in the making and. you know
3:21 pm
more. i don't want to say that but i can tell you that everything went well just exactly perfect which is kind of a hallmark of this team we have consistently been 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 craft still the mission is already a success i mean i can't really we actually pull this off. as a sample collection was successful cyrus rex will begin its long journey home and return to earth and 2023. and we're joined now by david brown 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
3:22 pm
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 is a primordial objects so we think it hasn't changed very much since that time and so by studying 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 all interact 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 so what do you see as the trickiest parts. thankfully i think the trickiest part is already done and i think that was the actual touchdown untag maneuver yesterday because of the distance to the venue that had to be done completely. that had to be done completely remotely it can be done
3:23 pm
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 had 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 and because the antenna of the spacecraft wasn't pointed towards the earth we haven't received those yet though 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 than there is an alternative site the team can try and i will have a 2nd go at this if they need to so take us
3:24 pm
a little bit deeper through the timeline i mean like a lead can least start to hear for example about the results. well those photos were given out initial idea and there's a lot you can learn about the surface of the asteroids from photographs so as i was coming through we can start to analyze some of the stuff is ditto the actual material itself should return to earth in 2023 that's when the spacecraft to show george to get back to earth so hopefully towards the end of the 2023 and into 2024 we can start to get some results and really analyze this material to see what we can learn this david brown astronomer at the university of warwick thank you. football now in the champions league has resumed with a win for last year semifinalists rb leipsic they beat istanbul but she's just here to nil angelo grabbed both goals in their group h. opener in the german city only 999 fans were allowed in due to coronavirus
