chaos, maintained their innocence. this is what sparked the protests. police seizing bobby wine, the musician turned to presidential hopeful. on monday. there are not today i did was it's the most recent of many times he's been arrested since he became a politician in 201700. the authorities accuse bobby wine of flouting anti coronavirus regulations. his supporters say this is simply a political witch hunt. that was ok. the police are attacking us, but the one is supposed to become painting, but now he's in jail again, they're just trying to waste his time. as more forces deployed, the unrest is affecting business in kampala and in other towns where they have also been protests. these events add to opposition, worries about political freedom as the elections approach. at least 2 presidential

candidates have called off their campaigns, over alleged police brutality against the opposition. and for more on the situation and uganda, i'm joined by correspondent janice mcconnell, he is in the capital kampala, good to see what is the feeling in the capital today. it is still a tense situation. what happened yesterday? because your vote i meant here must have given to security to chose to closer to you, colleen, united and wind resistance. well, i woke up, therefore deployment a little bit unusual for in the places where there was roasting in your previous state by just doing support has to be very frustrating to watch the police to release them monocle cost. all right and tell us about his a race and as, as we have descended on the opposition, candidates have also been arrested. yes, i could. what i counted you is that there's a lot of frustration mainly on the opposition side,

but it is us important that i tell you that incumbent prison germans have any we understand from the communion reports that he's got the i going where some of you will see now the politico, other candidates will suspend it. there complains in sunday diary, seeing the book they were in there once the police to release the way to present it to the course of the size. you can speak who has come. veins are suspended and even some of the presidential candidates are suspended there has but president jordan said it incumbent is continuing with his campaigns. i need to genius. looking at that footage which we literally watched security office offices, fire live rounds of protest, as is the response to dissent by you amos seventies government. intensifying. i could say that what you saw happening, what happened to book you and the couple of other cases up in the us just like that . and the opposition hylas strongly come out, strongly come out to condemn this, including human rights activist groups. they want state governments,

they wanted police to be seen, but he's and, but the police say that's forcing their low every time to make these hours this and forcing that law and other we've actually just received a statement from that ministry of information that many states calling on the us, not to join ghost writing, but to join protests and keep us a short distance. and it is. we hear a lot about, bobby, why and you weigh in with 70. but what about at that candidates in the opposition? do any of them have significant support? i would sit at the house thinking if you got some poet. i don't want to make a judgment by the book be going when you look at the crowds present, you're missing out booby way. for some reason they seem to stand out as their leader trying to do. it's who and seems to be the leading candidate and opposition side. because we need to see when he goes place political, right? it gets people flowing here. others a quickly getting people who are following them,

but for now you could create it. oh, that's many of them looking at that. it's just judging from that. it's just but like i saidin a previous interview, if the crowds following your main and this a lead to a pause button, you want to make it just meant using that extends, you know, it would do anything that they'd be praised that you're in a city comes to bringing crowds together and, and what is at stake in this election tunis? i think what is at stake to settle it is they are in a sense for what the young foot is, every kind to do towards the young person's foot. because these are the jury, see if you how the m. people, 40 employees answer you go through. so all their money, fish goes all people, all kind of deception to confuse the end people to give in there. but the opposition is getting the young people that's you know, what if i did not help raise that europe since many of the empty people of new must see not another leader. and he, seeing their time is not a good place in terms of eating out. but prison was heaven, he has told young people that has the money,

the right decision and experience to secure the a future. but we want to show that no, it gets it's gets them one out quickly. jane, it's do these young people and that is an electric, have faith in the democratic process being free and failed? talking about faith tested, very big question and really a great day best people who support president your emissivity people's supports that ruling. got them into egypt that they trusted democratic process, but people with a political position, especially supporters of will be going to follow what you subscribes to. we're doing has already told these people that he has no cause to disobey democratic process, but he has told them regardless of the fact they should wake up in the morning in genoa to cast the about it yet. that's what much as they challenge him across the process. this should go on for so the question of faithful is on the way as someone steps crepes, those of scrapes of the opposition. think right. did him across the president's reality up on those supporting government? say this is the right thing to do. i did see upright. ok, genius macumba compiler for us. thank you. onyx stories in cape town,

south africa way. crime is so rampant in some part of the city that paramedics will only respond to calls if they are accompanied by the police. this year alone, there have been more than 50 attacks on ambulance respond as our correspondent company, one team of paramedics as they oncet holes waiting at the police station is a regular occurrence for paramedic. be shocked me without police. he can't do his job. months ago we have a border guard down for this stuff. if there ever is another vehicle, one young guy brought the gun on us. you want to rob us. but 3 years ago, told that they step back. his partner lives here at the cape flats. he says, not at day goes by, that you don't hear shots fired. rival gangs. totally different in they are really

armed with, with no place they sit with them. they shoot. if they want to sue, they want to continue on in their way, issued its way. we got this particular from the police, someone who's been vomiting or not since the morning has called for an ambulance. the paramedics have been waiting at the police station for an hour. so the police are now on their prices. but on top of this, i don't know what's going to happen. violence has been escalating for years at the cape flats, which are located at the edge of the city gangs here, fight over control of drugs. it's also about power. the police are overwhelmed, gangs can easily recruit young people because of high unemployment and few drop opportunities. once the paramedics arrive, they quickly bundled the patient into the ambulance. for security reasons, the patient will only be treated once in hospital. the next emergency call to

shortly after the area where we're going now, so it's also red. no doubt the red zone means only with police accompany minutes more and more patients find they're having to wait in vain now for ambulances, because there's not enough police to always escort paramedics. this time the police are already at the scene right in the middle of every decongestant. slum a man has been shot to death. paramedics can't help, but you can see the body right here. literally a one, a 2 meters away is the shed where family of 5 lives with 3 kids. i'm scared, i'm scared to. even tonight you know, want to see, you know, i'm going to go to hell, let's leave that aside. i'm going to sleep. that's not. i don't want to see what this place is like, because if a paramedic on a bender fills out the victim's declaration of death and all to regular occurrence

for him. this is a time where you start getting used to it because you see it on a regular basis. so this at the point we don't start feeling anything anymore for these types. it is stuff that you will get because you are exposed to such high and i don't throw my stuff and it's on a daily basis. but when it comes to kids, again, that is about to part because they get really see that it's, he has to say they don't really choose to be that type of provided with benefits out 3 more declarations of death in the next 2 hours, all as a result of the legit murders. and so again, a community is traumatized with children growing up among violence and death. killing has become a part of daily life at the cape flats. staying with crime in south africa, jacob zuma walked out of a commission investigating government graph showing his tenure. the former president was set to answer questions about his role in the alleged corruption

between 2009 and $28.00. the commission dubbed the state's caption, why are often using an application to have the judge presiding over the inquiry, recused? he accuses the judge of being biased against him, but his legal steps are widely seen as delaying tactics. now, it's not yet known. what steps judge will take that the electorate asking for permission judge a seemingly unimpressed of jacob zuma. well, that is it for now. be sure to check out our other stories on the dot com forward slash africa. we're also on facebook and on twitter. and finally, the n.b.a.'s drop day was an impressive, a faithful boston born is from nigeria. all with nigerian roots also makes it a match of nations from last year due to every news africa will see. next time

. a u.c. who has now reached the giddy heights of hope couture in paris. care for ali was a successful artist and writer in syria when the arab spring protests began. 10 years ago. she joined the demonstrations, but after mistreatment by the syrian authorities, took the difficult step of fleeing the country and came to germany. now she writes children's books and also help syrian refugees here in an interesting way. she brings the culture of a home country closer to her fellow exiles, with the aid of one of burdens, museums. syria is a few 1000 kilometers away, but there is a piece of key faculty dedes homeland here in berlin. at the pergamon museum, she takes refugees on guided taus, telling them the stories behind the objects. it's an emotional journey to look to

close your eyes. try to smell and you will feel at home. and there are always like very nice traipse. we go through clothing, thighs and thinking about our memories. our heritage studied dance in damascus and is a successful children's book off. our venture stories are filled with a love of life and freedom. but she did not feel free until a totalitarian acid regime and joined protests in 2011 when the arab spring star hope that time the change with very long time for democratic change. but the protests were

brutally put down. she was arrested several times and finally fled the country. it was the hardest life because they didn't want the hope for a new syria or was she had to leave friends and fellow regime opponents behind. many she has not heard from since, where they arrested. now, are they still alive? her artwork depicts lost in the chairs. maybe because they are. she arrived in germany in 2015 as one of over 1000000, people seeking refuge. she tries to help other refugees find a place. i always find myself somewhere in between.

parts trained to bring them together. she is writing texts for a handbook for refugees providing practical tips on what to do, want to rival and about integration and counters. the fears of immigrants with a column in a german daily newspaper. she writes about differences and similarities between germany and syria. there's still a lot of work to be done to break down prejudices and bring together cultures, which she says are not so far apart. old and new homes, damascus and berlin have much in common very similar from different perspectives because the, it's very life. it's very open and everyone from everywhere. where are you from? what you are doing?

what has found a place as a mediator between people and cultures and you can see more from other exiles who are now here in berlin on a very special 21 program on this weekend. good news now from brazil, with the reopening of one of the largest collections of contemporary art in south america. the museum started life as a botanical garden, founded in 2004 by who started buying up land adjoining his farmhouse. as developers began to destroy the landscape around him, it has been called the best outdoor museum in the world. and it is an artistic away

sis in the middle of the rain forest. feeding the sun and listening to the counter with nature in a space designed by an artist to show off that goes down to a depth of 200 meters. the sound of the rocks shifting below, amplified through loudspeakers. nature as the object of art. and as an all encompassing power, which we cannot escape, this relationship is central to the experience of the museum. the biggest of its kind, anywhere in the world stretched over 300000 square meters, modern art and rain forest merge into a unique cold. the nature here, functions like drops that drain the membrane as you go from artwork to artwork. we

don't have this massacre that you sometimes encounter in calories or traditional museums where you see one artwork after another. and you just can't digest it all the garden. infinite reflected images of the viewer, driven through the landscape by the wind. after months of lockdown, the museum has finally reopened and offers a sense of freedom. and ambience. here has relaxed us a bit and lifted the weight that's been upon us. it's like an escape from the chaos of the pandemic out here. you have the feeling that everything is ok that the baby, the destruction of nature is here, confined to a glass dome. this wax mold of an up rooted tree has weapons penetrating it. progress and destruction go hand in hand in the brazilian rain, forest. catch. i think that is an opportunity to reflect and mediate in this

conflict cultural institutions and museums work very hard on this. they sensitized people that as they can see, they have also built a kind of temple for the guardians of the forest. within there is a photo exhibition with pictures of the indigenous people, the yanomami numbers, instead of names, photos from an immunization campaign to protect the locals from deadly disease, brought by intruders who built a highway through the land, images of vulnerability, which serve as a warning. the yanomami fight for survival is not over. that place just looks fabulous. that's going on my to do list. another exhibition that is opening in spite of the pandemic is in st. petersburg in russia. and it features the designs of what vogue magazine has called the world's greatest living

. british tap maker philip treacy also make it to the royals intricate designs like this shit, actually a castle here actually looks like a harry potter council doesn't. these really are works of art and trees. he himself said at the prince prix preview. we all need a bit of entertainment at the moment in these trying times. now, only about 2 dozen people are allowed to call themselves designers. the absolute high end of fashion is awarded by the french federation of fashion, which also decides who may participate as a gas designer. at the paris shows this year, self-taught cameroonian designer you see was invited. we visited him after he had had his 2nd show, which he could only present digitally. this is

a man and he sees a new collection. he's the 1st designer from cameroon to showcase his creations at paris. even if this time, due to corona, it's only on to me. paris is like a museum. there's always something new to discover. the fashion is everywhere. culture is also very present. so many people from all over the world come together . here is a very international city and a very important fashion. why you see jaws inspiration from both africa and europe? he sees himself as a kind of ambassador for africa in the luxe fashion world. i don't try to make clothes like to your lawn, ghana, and i don't have the means to do that. if you've got, i'm from

a different world and that's what i'd like to bring across using my designs to tell my story of africa. you see the train by himself, an exception in paris, fashion scene, the son of a professional boxer and a model. he grew up in cameroon, and was interested in his mother's exclusive dresses from an early age that my mom was a pretty car kaddish. she was very beautiful and liked to wear nice dresses. as a child, i was allowed to close the door. it all made an impression on me, and i started to sketch from an early age. i wasn't hard. it just sort of developed . i drew figures in the sand with a stick, then i designed clothes for them. that's how it all began. but

he became a dancer and performed in a traditional group with his siblings. he started modeling 1st in cameroon, and later for well known brands in france. eventually he founded his own fashion label his 1st couture show in january 2020, caused the international fashion scene was delighted by his mix of traditional craftsmanship and modern design. black designers are still an exception at the big shows, even if there has been some progress. fashion houses like louis, for example, who's head designer is virtual supermodel. naomi campbell says it's not enough recently called for more black models and designers. she's had a great career. she is, boy, but sometimes you don't think of raising that voice when you're at the top and in the spotlight of credit while it's a shame she did not do it earlier. want to now in

a manner you see hopes that she is. fashion is not only at her mind, but also just more stories from the world of arts and culture on our website at v.w. dot com slash culture. and do check out the w books on our you tube channel and also d.w. classical music. that's all for now. though, thanks watching to

couldn't sleep. her currents. this is doing everything from brother and i'm president, to visit to the occupied golan heights my palm tyro. course control the 1st u.s. secretary of state to visit the disputed territory on expired israel in 1967 with visits to a jewish settlement in the west bank. he's trademark is a major shift in u.s. foreign policy. also on the program. growing numbers of migrants arriving spain's

canary islands by boat from africa, 10 times last year's title. investigate some local officials called on the e.u. to do more, to the program. u.s., secretary of state mike pump arrow is on what's likely to be his last major trip to the middle east for the trumpet ministration. and he's undertaking controversial visit to israel and occupied palestinian territories. marking a significant break with established u.s. policy. he became the 1st us secretary of state to visit a jewish settlement in the occupied west bank. an occupation still not recognized by much of the international community. in the afternoon, he stopped in the israeli health golan heights a disputed area that israel annexed in 1967. he made a brief statement, confirming

a shift in u.s. policy, recognizing israel sovereignty over the heights 35 years ago. as a young cadet, i studied about this very place, this, this amazing and important piece of real estate. you keep, you can't stand here and stare out at what's across the border. and tonight, the central thing, the president trump recognized that previous presidents had refused to do. this is a part of israel, the center part of his crime. how controversial was this trip to the golan heights? when i was labeled as a favor to her for a u.s. secretary of state, my pompei, about as you said, one with very controversial, highly controversial stopovers. like what you just heard from him and the golan heights. this is one of the arenas where the u.s. administration under u.s.

president. donald trump has changed. longstanding u.s. foreign policy by declaring is suffering a t.v. over the golan heights. last year. this is, of course, was not supported by the majority of the international community. early on he went to a settlement, the settlement of sagar to visit to a binary. and he made another statement there. another reversal of u.s. policy that came a bit off, as of a surprise saying that from now on products that are being produced in the settlements in the occupied west bank could be labeled as made in a highly controversial move there. this is in line actually with another reversal of longstanding u.s. policy that the u.s. administration last year sat that they don't consider israeli settlements longer as illegal now or for the palestinians today,

they have seen this visit as very provocative. there were some statements in this regard, but at the same time, they also understand this is coming, the trump arras coming somehow to an end. there was probably more a sigh of relief as well because the palestinian leadership has a kind of all diplomatic ties with the trump administration. but that also leaves, of course, the question why denouncement of such a policy changes. now this is an outgoing minister gratian and it would actually leave more obstacles for the incoming biden administration. let's talk about netanyahu have developed a close relationship with president trump. what is the feeling there about the president elect? i think to have to look at it from a different angle because president elect joe biden is very well known in israel. he has described himself as a friend of israel. he has said he has known every prime minister since the 1970 s.

. he's also, he knows where the current israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu, but at the same time it will not be the same relationship of what we see in the past 4 years between benyamin, netanyahu and u.s. president on the trumbull, the same kind of policies of favors now the main concern for israelis here is especially also for the right wing in israel is what kind of foreign policy rule see from the incoming biden administration. will there be a reversal of policies like in the iran nuclear deal, or the paramita is that the time? but mr. ation has said when it comes to the israeli palestinian conflict, so there's much concern about that. what will be refuted, how this foreign policy will look like, and also how important it will be on the agenda of the incoming administration. to thank you. let's take a look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. members of

australia's special forces killed $39.00 afghan civilians and prisoners according to a new internal investigation into ministry misconduct, evidence of summary executions in afghanistan during initiation rituals. the chief of the defense chief of the australian defense force has apologised. the case is being referred to a war crimes prosecutor. people have been killed in 352 days of operations by security forces and riots. 5 erast a presidential campaign. that's why the pop star is seen as the leading challenger to president yoweri museveni. the crew of the international space station has given a briefing from space a space 1st interview. since they were joined by 4 astronauts of the rocket,

i was a 1st time crew members being carried to the orbiting station by a privately funded spacecraft. donald trump's a lawyer, rudy giuliani has described, recounts of election results as useless claiming that the u.s. voting system has been compromised by widespread fraud. the state of georgia is finalizing its recount, which is likely to uphold democrat, joe biden. as the winner of the previously republican state is the champs legal teams file multiple lawsuits in several states. the election results, i think ations a photo from unproven. let's get more from the correspondent in washington. welcome. so rudy giuliani has just held a press conference. what did he learn about team plans? well, it was yet another press conference full of baseless claims really,

really shows also this of the states in which the trump campaign is in right now. it's a chaotic situation. they're firing off countless lawsuits. and you just have to look at the amount of e-mails also and tweets that president trump himself, and his campaign is sending out every day. the goal it seems, is to raise doubt of course of the, about the election result also to raise money. and so they're constantly asking their followers to chip in some money to support their case. reportedly that money is used to repay the republican campaign dead. it's not really clear what donald trump really wants or whether or not he believes in all those claims that continue to be considered baseless. they're also said time and time again that they're not able to change their results even if some of those polls that were found afterwards are considered. so we're only talking about a very few votes here at all. now there's only very few republicans who are

actually donald trump at this point. so this continues to be a very interesting aspect to you, doesn't it? on mitt romney as one of them? and that will continue very likely to be the case, at least until january 5th. that's when the senate run off in georgia takes place. and as you know, the republicans need to win the senate in order to move on. and block joe biden's policy proposals. as some sort of an obstruction policy, which seems very much like the goal of the republican party. at this point, one of the recounts that people are paying close attention to is that in georgia, that see rudy giuliani talking about that. so for example, the recount being done in georgia will tell us nothing. because these fraudulent ballots will just be counted again because they wouldn't supply the signatures to match the ballots. so it means nothing to have counted these ballots. because for example, in pennsylvania, where we have probably our most recent i,

768-2770 of these ballots were cast, put in, and they were inspected, which renders them ballots that are known void cannot be counted. have to be removed from the, from the vote. so rudy giuliani says, i wonder how to silence is this strategy likely to work? first of all, rudy giuliani and the trump team, they need to produce evidence and they haven't done that. so we've heard all these claims so far and they continue to be considered baseless as we speak. and we heard the person in charge for the electoral vote count in georgia, the secretary of state there. and he said that it's normal, that there is some fraud you lands on a very, very small level that happens every election, but there is no widespread voter fraud in the state of georgia. so the strategy they're following here is very unlikely to be successful. at least at this point

and with the evidence that is available right now, which is close to 0. thank you for all of us of us in washington. more than a 1000 migrants arrived on spain's canary island by boat from africa last month hoping to breach your human rights groups say that being healthy diet conditions, while local officials admit to being simply overwhelmed. the journey across choppy waters to the spanish islands is treacherous. news young for that shelter has been to gran canaria to see what is awaiting migrants when they commissioned from here, journalists can go no further. some 2000 african migrants are being housed in this camp in the part of 5 times as many as was expected to aid groups have spoken of squalid conditions, but it's impossible for the w. news to find out. seamus on town now works for the island's refugee council. and his colleagues have been inside the camp but another man and everyone sleeps on the

floor in the tents and the openness of the sea. we've been criticizing this from day one, but we didn't think it would get this bad of the 2300 people in the camp and their numbers are growing every day. gets in the way. 2000 migrants arrived in the canary islands last weekend alone. the crossing is dangerous, but the coronavirus pandemic has cut of migration routes. the government has started to housing new arrivals in hotels near the camp. human rights activists say they are not getting a fair shot at the asylum system. these migrants from san diego fia that they will soon be deported. it's a lawful order that the crowd provide. journalists are not welcome here either. g.w. news, this told to leave in mid conversation. may know is angry at the spanish government,

but also feels abandoned by the european union. it, i know has got to get it. i'm disappointed with spain and with europe. this is shameful. a lot of politicians and representatives have come here recently, but we have no clue what the government's strategy is to deal with the migration crisis on the canary islands. but the government buying it, and spain's government refuses to relocate the migrants to the mainland. critics say this has turned the island into a prison. for months, the trend of increasing migration numbers has been visible here on the canary islands. nevertheless, everyone involved seems overwhelmed by the current situation. valuable preparation time has been lost. instead, the island's government, the central government and the european union,

starting to shift responsibility for the situation to one another. the spanish government has now started to procure for of accommodation for the migrants. many fear that this housing will fill up before long. and before we go, the planting, the pandemic isn't just affecting humans. of course, the lives of lots of animals are also being disrupted, particularly those in captivity. wage meat re raise a 6 year old african penguin. she lives in california's monterey bay aquarium. but it's closed because of iris restrictions. so she has taken to exploring the home. she wants around on staff just like the zoo's human diseases as discovered lots to see some species, most of them good enough to eat. she certainly getting plenty of exercise which is not what the world's smallest species,
