islamist terrorism today france increased its security alert to its maximum level french president macron saying very clearly it is france that is being attacked but there is more beginning tomorrow the french will be reminded for an entire month of another danger the country's 2nd nationwide coronavirus lockdown begins on friday the number of new infections and hospitalizations are at record highs threatening to overwhelm the country's health care system tonight the french see their nation at battle against 2 enemies a virus and hate. police domingue nice is not true dumbass in account with too late to stop the block sent by the time they saw an injured the attack 3 people had been fatally wounded one of them wasn't such official. you know one we just learned from the television the

toss sacristan has been assassinated it's a huge shock. good nephew actually he was there all day long he wasn't somebody who would drop in and go again he was always there. the church is just a kilometer from the scene of a deadly truck attack which killed dozens in 2016 and he says mayor says the assailant shouted. god is great is as he was detained. president my call was at the scene within hours calling for national unity. singing sums at the king if we feel an attack to get in it's because of our values our belief in freedom to believe freely and not to give in to terror qua. let me say this very clearly we will never give in to the big book with cutting phone calls or the uni said i am the french president has angered many in the

muslim world by refusing to condemn cut tunes of the prophet muhammad. was. its a long standing debate in france breaking knighted by the murder of schoolteacher somewhere earlier this month he was beheaded after showing the tunes of muhammad in a class on free speech now france has 3 more reasons to mourn the national assembly held a minute's silence for the victims those in power faced some uncomfortable questions in the days ahead many in this strictly secular country may ask if the official approach is the right one and whether they should fear more lone wolf attacks. all right we want to go now to our very own lisa lewis she is in the fridge city of nice tonight good evening to you lisa what more do we know tonight about the 3

people who were killed and what more do we know about the suspect. well we know that the victims were all between 40 and 60 years old apparently one woman was decapitated in the church another man was cost at his trade and a 3rd woman a 3rd person the woman fled to a nearby bar and then she died there for wounds that the attacker we understand that he was apparently 21 years old of tunis in tunisia and man who had come to france recently france's top anti terror prosecutor has said tonight in a press conference that the police found a koran and 3 nights with him one of the nice was the weapon of assault really we don't know yet if he had been in touch with any international. terror network or anything we don't know why he did this but we do know that the police are looking

into this and we're certainly going to be hearing more about this in the coming days in the year you begin the day in paris you travel to nice what have people been telling you regarding what police say is a series of islamist terror attacks in the country. this is stopped a lot of people here in france obviously the my friends who have been talking to but also people i met here in nice i talked to a muslim couple earlier tonight and they were telling me we're really you know i think we think that france is at a tipping point it's getting worse and worse and we are moderate muslims we don't identify with such a mad person who's done this is perpetrate this horrible chap today probably feel that we are being targeted by some people in france who believe that all muslims are the same but we. they aren't and then a bit later on hundreds of people were marching down the street here towards just to the front of the cathedral and those people were from far right groups it seemed

they were singing the national anthem they were doing the hitler salute and yelling the hyde thing seems like france is really a divided and very polarized country now. this recent spate of attacks it comes at a time when so-called islamic state is expanding its influence despite having new territory to claim as its own any longer its there is since that france is europe's most fertile ground for radicalisation. but it's certainly a for children to proudly you know france has the biggest muslim community in the western world and police told me not long ago that there were no now rather expecting not big terror attacks like the attacks in 2015 where more than a 100 people died for example number november 25th teen in paris but rather lone walls are tied they're really afraid that some people who get radicalized in their

room at home that they then go on the news saw people and kill people because they think that they have to fight back against the image of secularism that france has been defending more and more especially over the coming of the past few months if you look back just a few weeks back there was the beheading of a 47 year old history teacher who had shown a cartoon of the prophet muhammad in class and was then big headed by radical islamists and after that the government said that they really needed to preserve secularism what they see had secularism here in france and that they would clamp down and crack down on radical islam and so it looks like this has further divided the spirit spirits and police seems to be really afraid more times might be coming the government has now ramped up its police forces in the streets by several thousands of police forces and soldiers. 2 more of these nationwide kubota

virus locked begins in france that he could last the entire month of november you've got 2 major threats now terror and the virus in france talk to me about this double danger in free speech. well it's causing a lot of concern here also people are afraid of the virus of obviously they were thinking that this might have gone away over the summer because the figures were going down and even when the figures of infection were rising the figures of daily deaths were engaging up right away but now it's come to a point where the government has said we need to lock down the country again no else we might face another 400000 additional deaths over the next few months so people are afraid of losing and then this terror attack and the current climate here in france which is really you know very anxious very you know furthering all

this fear that people can have a further 4 terror attacks and certainly not good times and very concerning times here in france and we hear a lot about threats to french values which is secularism now there's a threat to public health what's the condition tonight of french resilience amid these crises. well that's a good question i mean people from now on will have to stay at home for 4 weeks so probably that gives them also the occasion to hide away from this and just you know dive into whatever they like music or good movies but people are really here on that because of the terror threat and they're also worn out because of this virus they don't want to go back into isolation but obviously they don't have another choice and they just have to you know get through this and the president has been saying you know we need to stand together and we will get through this but i think many people here in france doubt that really yeah well we will. find else because

that's locked down begins tomorrow lisa was force in these france tonight lisa i think. it comes to america. where militias want to take the law and. the dead new record on the 1st sign that talks to them what are they so angry about. what to expect from the upcoming election if they really prepare to be on the final. report from on the ground. the radical states of america a new documentary that sheds light on a nation of polarized politics and people just days before a presidential election unlike any in american history for the 1st time in living memory there is fear that if the sitting president loses the election he will not

leave the white house in peace what has happened to these united states let's take this question tonight to washington my colleague gulliver's alan t. joins me now the radical states of america is his new documentary oliver congratulations on this work i watched it today and i have to say kudos to you for how you weave so many of these different american voices together what's your verdict oliver with just what 6 days before the election what is more truthful about the u.s. is it more united or is it more radical. thank you brant 1st of all i really appreciate that look we are looking at a very polarized nation even more so than 4 years ago when we covered presidents president trumps election now to an extent where people are not talking to each other anymore and even shooting at each other in extreme cases and at the heart of this are very. groups that are very important also relevant to understand the scope

of this conflict also the contradictions that we're experiencing here in the united states and we have the black lives matter movement who is rallying against police violence and for police reform on the one hand then on the other hand we have these right wing also militia kind of groups that are fighting full on auto so if you look at it in the 1st glance you might think that's a good thing both groups are fighting for but with the amount of guns that are circulating in the united states and they're protected by the constitution as you know we are looking at a potentially dangerous situation potentially i have to say extremism experts that we've interviewed in recent weeks for that documentary told us that spontaneous violence is what one of the biggest dangers that we might experience after the election depending on the outcome of the election of course but that said we are also talking about rather small groups so this scenario of civil wars is rather unlikely but we might see calles we might see scuffles and with that also being

said the rest of the americans and that's a large part among them there's a big longing for peace and of normalcy also after those 4 very noisy years and one of these people brand is a black lives matter activist in louisville kentucky that we have met for this documentation and let's take a look together. october in louisville kentucky a cities scarred by the penn demick and protests reeling from the death of black medical workers briana taylor who died while police were searching her home in march. black lives matter. activist karen wants justice for briana she is her hero and the symbol of a movement that will no longer be silenced. personally and emotionally briana taylor's name for me it gives me strength she gives me hope and she gives me a reason to wake up every day and fight for justice i mean. i'm 40 years

old in we have seen the injustices of black people in this nation briana taylor lived here on the outskirts of louisville in march police entered her apartment using a no knock warrant an exchange of gunfire ensued and she died in a hail of bullets you can see from out here that when police officers started shooting that they shot from outside the home and so here's one still bullet hole in police evidence tape over 20 bullets shot. inside the home. a policy strategist drafted briana's law which bans the use of no knock warrants in lieu of. she says the roots of police brutality lie in the judicial system and with the police themselves no one is really holding the police accountable and it's

almost like police officers have been able to just do whatever they've been wanting to do. i. 7 months after briana taylor's death the protest movement is still alive in late september kentucky's attorney general revealed that the police officers who shot her would not face murder charges i mean the decision came as a shock for the kids who are a heroine and many others now she's pinning all her hopes on a new president. we have to protect folks in the united states and i don't think that the current on their. initiation has done that i think that they have not feel like they've been misused and of these in their power and so this this this election is is the most important that i've ever seen.

heroin is especially concerned that donald trump has refused to commit to a peaceful transfer of power should he lose the election. in louisville protesters are singing for peace and for an end to the escalation of violence. or you know we've talked many times about the black lines matter movement how much does this movement matter now when people go to the ballot box it's an extremely important group of people brand especially because there is not this one typical black voter is so there even trump supporters among black voters and again this is very typical in the united states we're talking about a polarized country now back in 2016 hillary clinton had the problem that there was

a very low turnout among especially among young black voters and the hopes these year this year of the black left matter movement is that because of the protests and because of their claims and because of the fact that president trump is not actually helping them in contrast even speaking out against police reform that this year will be different and we've seen that especially with the young protesters then louisville kentucky. there is a segment in your documentary where a member of a militia tells you why he feels the need to have guns and to be armed let's take a look at that clip peter diaz founded american wolf not long ago he's financed the militia using more than $100000.00 of his own money earned by renting out office furniture he feels it's his mission to protect america with arms if necessary and i think it should be important for everybody to be familiar with it because especially right now you just don't really know what's going to happen next the

place that we're in this country and the world really is and right now if i would have told you 6 months or a year ago that we were going to be locked down told where you could travel told what you can and can't do who you can and can hang out with where you can eat where you can eat the amount of control that's being pushed on us right now nobody would have ever believed me. when i watched that clip i immediately asked myself does he realize that the pandemic in the lockdowns that's not a uniquely american crisis i mean we are about to go into a partial lockdown here in germany for example how do you explain his thinking. that's a very special phenomenon that we've been witnessing all across the united states and it really seems like it does depend on your political views if you oppose those mitigation efforts or not and the republicans and conservatives and i would count the militias in large part into that group they believe in traditional american

values like liberty and freedom and they believe that those values are under threat and that's exactly what peter dia's of the of the group american wulfhere says and that they have to defend those values and they believe that's an act of patriotism and they only feel as good americans if they step up against that what they believe is an attack on their freedoms and sensually they believe for instance that wearing a mask is an individual decision and we've seen that very often in our road trip where we just came back from our team was traveling the whole united states from the west to the east and hardly and especially in the republican led states hardly anyone was wearing a mask and that is also one of the reason why some of the states here are doing so bad with the virus. so excellent excellent piece of work strongly recommend that our viewers watch your documentary the radical states of america excellence you rymer as we head towards the most important presidential election in u.s.

history thank you. and you can watch the radical states of america here on v.w. of various times this week or on demand at youtube dot com slash d w underscore documentary. here in berlin the countdown is running until the grand opening of the city's long awaited new airport at the weekend berlin brandenburg airport is scheduled to go into operation 9 years later than expected and several 1000000000 euros over budget workers are putting the finishing touches on the terminal which has been plagued by building problems due to mismanagement and corruption at the airports known as b e r will open this saturday without a bang the opening party was cancelled due to coronavirus measures and someone who has been following the saga of b e r closely for years now is my colleague

a reporter joel garreau roy and he's even made a podcast series about this never ending story so joe the airport was supposed to open in 2011 now the date is october 31st is it going to really open this time well i was out there just yesterday having a look around and it looks pretty good it looks pretty finished i also took part in the passenger tests a few weeks ago everything ran very smoothly but every day new little problems of being discovered and i can give you an example take a look at this photo it's a picture of the passageway that goes up from the main train station under the terminal to the main terminal which is supposed to handle $25000000.00 passengers a year but there is only one escalator and it only goes up a so anyone who's arriving with heavy bags will have to struggle down the stairs to get to the train now of course this isn't a major problem but you know if you're going to spend 6 and a half 1000000000 euros on an airport and take 12 years to do it she could at least include a downwards going escalate that's exactly right don't forget about gravity for

goodness sakes how did so much go so wrong here for so long there was so i made a mistake. the the 1st one was that they picked the wrong location is too small too close to homes manages just didn't manage the site became a hotbed of criminality and corruption politicians kept ordering changes to the airport design even after construction had begun now if you have the bake the cake you'll know that you can't just double the recipe after it's already gone in the oven not that led to all sorts of other cascading problems the fire safety system couldn't cope because it was built for a much smaller airport and then the builders started charging by the hour instead of by the job which is lead to runaway costs but you know what i think the fundamental problem was this that everybody believed the myth of german efficiency and nobody expected any problems and nobody will look nobody was looking for any until it was too late too late and now we have this opening date that is going to happen and it's happening in the middle of a pandemic the worst crisis ever in the airline industry yet at traffic is down by

70 percent and that has blown a huge hole in the already fragile finances of this project now the airport is already required a bailout of some 300000000 euros this year and may need to know the hof a 1000000000 next year just to stay afloat during this crisis and some external professors that looked at the numbers and they believe that the airport company is close to insolvency and could one day go bankrupt now of course you know this this is all this is all coming just as b i was about to be finished but the real issue here is that although the building is finished in the apples about to open the real disasters could be yet to come now if you want to know what really went wrong at b w have produced a huge true special explaining it all so you can subscribe to our you tube channel and that should appear in your feed shortly and you wouldn't say that the airport is cursed it's not because they actually looks quite nice i think you'll be surprised once you're there ok if you ever get there if we ever get to the actually writes jill dougherty's always joke thank you. and the day is almost done but the

a 21 year old tunisian who arrived in the country from italy this is the 3rd such attack in france in 2 months blamed on muslim extremists. the end of a tragic day in nice one which has left this mediterranean city in suck. nightfall has proved with that only a measure of calm forensics team still engrossed in the investigation into the outrage which set at the calm within the basilica. police who stormed the charts earlier who too late to stop the bloodshed and by the time they shot and injured the attacker 3 people have been fatally wounded one of them was a church official believe though one we've just learned from the television that has sacristan has been assassinated it's a huge shock. did we have lunch only he was that all day long he wasn't somebody

who drop in and go again he was always there. the church is just a kilometer from the scene of a deadly truck attack which killed dozens in 2016 nieces mayer says the assailant shouted. god is great is as he was detained. the president my call was at the scene within hours calling for national unity. she knew some of that that came if we fill in the tact again it's because of our values our belief in freedom to believe freely and not to give in to terror qua. let me say this very clearly that we will never give in to the big book with cutting for causality when he said that i am the french president has angered many in the muslim world by refusing to condemn cut tunes of the prophet muhammad and.

it's a long standing debate in france freakin knighted by the murder of schoolteachers somewhere earlier this month he was beheaded after showing the tunes of muhammad in a class on free speech now france has 3 more reasons to mourn the national assembly held a minute's silence for the victims those in power face some uncomfortable questions in the days ahead many in the strictly secular country may ask if the official approach is the right one and whether they should fear more lone wolf attacks. are joining me now is our correspondent lisa lewis she is in these tonight good evening to you lisa so we're getting new information about the suspects what have we learned. probably sexpert suspect came from to news here went to italy and then arrived in france and a short time ago he's on police service is that top anti terror prosecutor

tonight said that the that he that they found a koran and 3 nights we've been actually and one of the knives was the weapon of assault with which he killed 3 people earlier today. what is the mood there. because we're talking about it's been just a few hours since that attack you know. absolutely i mean now people are confined to their pains but oh yeah i talked to some we had come here to gather and to pay their respects to the dead and they were lighting some pandas and saying you know we are muslims but we shouldn't we don't actually we're not like the is satan and people shouldn't stigmatize us because of this madman who attacked people earlier today but then a bit later there was also a march of hundreds of people from the far right who came here to the cathedral and

were chanting the national anthem during the hitless aleve and yelling the fire so it seems like the mood is really on edge and very divided tonight here in france there was another attack earlier today. what do we know about was there a connection to what we saw happening in nice. well apparently was an attack in his thirty's and he is believed to have belonged to also a far right groups he was attacking a merchant from of north african descent and that only shows that really there is a lot of tension in in this country at the moment the police killed the attacker and we don't really know his name yet but we do know that there have been lots of terror attacks over the past few weeks and months and people are really work here. the country france is still reeling from the recent murder beheading of

a schoolteacher why are these attacks happening in france should be are people telling you why they think this is happening so much there. well there is a certain atmosphere here in france at the moment especially because there is a court case on going on the attack the satirical magazine sally of do ingenue 2015 you know that magazine had published cartoons of the prophet mohammad and now with this court case that's been going on for weeks all this these these feelings this hatred is coming again to the surface and there has been as you said another attack that was another attack just a few weeks back a 47 year old teacher was beheaded by and his of his attacker a radical islamist and because the teacher had shown a cartoon of the prophet muhammad in class and a few weeks before that it was a knife attack in front of the sharia to form

a new their former news room so there is a certain atmosphere and people are really afraid that more attacks might be coming the police is on has the government is an actual government has now decided to deploy thousands of additional police forces and soldiers in the streets to protect vulnerable places such as places of worship or locations of former charts which could also be a target for future attacks. she is the zulu is with the latest tonight from the french city of nice lisa thank you. well here's a look now at some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world israelis have marked the 25th anniversary of the assassination of prime minister yitzhak rabin 25000 candles were lit in the central area of tel aviv that bears his name and where he was shot by the jewish extremists for his attempts to pursue peace with the palestinians at least 8 prisoners have been killed and 12 wounded in a prison riot in afghanistan officials say violence erupted in the city of herat

after guards began collecting what they called unnecessary items in the possession of inmates. at least $140.00 my gran's have drowned off the coast of senegal that's according to the un's migration agency a europe bound boat cult fire and germany's chancellor angela merkel has defended the latest round of coronavirus restrictions as the country prepares to go back into a limited lockdown addressing parliament today medical said that it's currently impossible to trace the origin of all new infections hampering efforts to contain the virus she faced frequent interruptions and the opposition have called the measures excessive and inappropriate. empty restaurants and bars no museums no theaters these images are actually from the 1st wave of the pandemic but in november germans will have to get used to the macon as coronavirus cases rise

chancellor angela merkel announced sweeping new restrictions the main difference this time is that schools and many shops will remain open on thursday merkel defended the new policy in a key speech before the german parliament. is upon the mere good news man demick throws the spotlight on a word which is part of our most essential vocabulary freedom the meaning of this word is now very concrete because the measures agreed by the government in federal state in the spring and yesterday restrict our freedom. actually the same time we can understand that freedom does not mean everybody does what they want especially now freedom means responsibility and for going to this. responsibility for ourselves our families our colleagues and for all of us. merkel was constantly interrupted. him and the parliament speaker saw him

self forced to call for order the biggest a position party in the bundestag the far right and the was quick to slam the measures given that we consider the paralysis of a cultural industry the hospitality industry and practically the entire social life as announced by mrs merkel to be excessive and you know appropriate. now one of the big questions is the financial impact of these restrictions the german government has promised economic support for businesses that are particularly hard hit the companies concerned we would be entitled to a lump sum refund. of. their costs and this is an important step to make it possible for most for the overwhelming majority of the companies concerned to survive. and there's also the issue with the citizens will actually comply with these new measures. on the one hand it's

sad i almost have tears in my eyes but on the other hand i think the measures are correct i can only support it you know here i don't think it's going to be that i do think it's good it's necessary and i have no problem with it it's unfortunate but yeah i guess the role of our government is to protect the lives of our people. i think so i think i agree yeah. so far the german government has enjoyed high levels of support during the pandemic but now the question is whether coronavirus fatigue will set in with a partial meltdown. are the time now to be a detective with a different sees a veteran investigator serving the authorities in pakistan tracking down thieves is what makes him tick now his aim is to recover valuable stolen property and it doesn't come it always in the form of cash or drawer take a look. he may be a bit unsteady on his feet but his mind is still razor sharp they call him the

sherlock holmes of pakistan 70 year old is a master at tracking he goes after cattle rustlers in his home village of customer the success rate is over 80 percent. order prints tell you everything about a thief his size his weight how he walks you just have to be able to interpret them and there. is highly respected in his village 20 years ago the former farm laborer taught himself how to do detective work cattle masson had been getting out of hand and customer since then he's returned hundreds of stolen cattle to their owners even the police regularly call him in to help on their cases. deals are often a great help to us after all he's been doing it for a long time and pretty well knows all the possible suspects in the area. that i'm doing it i'm just like in

a crime novel going after thieves and cuss or can sometimes be dangerous at his age knowledge and no longer takes part in chases nevertheless some of the bad guys still seek revenge. before i help catch attack me at home and beat me up badly but. still that hasn't deterred this sherlock he wants to keep catching crooks and reading footprints at least as long as his own feet can carry him. well before we go we want to show you what the tail end of a hurricane looks like when it arrives at a world famous place for surfing it's surfing heaven in northern but if you are about to see it can sometimes hurt enjoy it from a safe distance will see you next. dawson

it's as if they don't need to keep a couple. of months old for all that much at home the 4th time flew down the hall to the most recently that the columbia looked rather nice the bottom of the ballet that the last dragons was one of those as you called the hard to listen to the real book on. the school district.
