strangers expressed their concern. like i. show you know why this is still that the military knows that we're not gonna stand back and let them do whatever they want. and in taiwan hundreds of members of the me and mark community there also came out in force. a woman. who had more than 30 years of repression from the military government with and thankfully we don't want to go back to that poor white woman who once and so we hope our next generation can live in a country like taiwan where everyone enjoys civil rights don't think i was right you're here today and i like it. despite efforts to silence protesters and me and more calls for an end to the coup are still loud and clear in the country. so how is man morris military planning on responding to these protests earlier we put that

question to journalist dave groan about really depends on how big these protests get there picking up steam do they really become something massive and also these work stoppages that are going on across the country do those continue to grow and if the generals find that there is this economy is just really sliding down its economy it's already been battered by quoting 1000 but if it's lose the ability to keep the economy running at all well then they may find themselves backed into a corner senior gentlemen on long the commander in chief he has put his chips on this risky gamble for total power for him there's no turning back even if it means that he has to use deadly force but keep this in mind this is something we do not know does he truly command the loyalty of all the times in units across the army is he really have the loyalty of police officers across the country we do not know there is a chance at some point there could be some division in the ranks that's something we need to keep an eye out for. we turn to brazil now where the country's top prosecutor has opened an investigation into president gyre bolsa naro over his

handling of the pandemic in the city of la now it's a new more contagious variant of the corona virus has emerged there pushing up infections and driving hospitals to breaking point over well with coded 19 cases clinics like beds and have little oxygen to give patients. can cope with current bid at least according to a state government which made this video showcasing a new hospital ward with 80 fresh beds. but this is closer to the real situation in. a makeshift clinic with a couple of oxygen tanks patients fighting for breath and this is worrying that things could soon get even worse. we're most afraid of running out of oxygen him announce we need a lot of oxygen because so many people are sick. things aren't just

bad in the isolated amazon the virus the 2nd wife is also washed over brazil's mega-cities these graves in rio de janeiro testify to its toll with some 800000 deaths it's now the worst affected city in the country. it's mismanagement that blind previous says. the way the crisis at its peak was managed practically visited genocide on the city of rio de janeiro lives that could have been saved were lost on this is sara lee. of this fault the federal government's response and the country's leader have both said. even when he was ill with the virus last july he kept meeting supporters but actually. sending hundreds of times his repeated decent for my shit about. comparing it to the flu and promoting a cure which hasn't been proven hydroxy clerk when but now he's admitting that drug

might not work was like i say the chances it works is 0 it was a placebo ok fine give me a challenge he didn't get. many also angry at the country slow vaccination program with hundreds of millions to inoculate issues nass a more dices of the chinese vaccine sign of back which reported on the 50 percent prevention figures in the brazilian trial. let's take a look now at some of the other developments in the make. here in germany the number of new infections keeps falling health authorities registered 10500 new cases in the past 24 hours down around 2000 from the same time last week italy has approved an antibody therapy therapy developed by u.s. drug makers eli lilly and regeneration the treatment is aimed at patients with mild to moderate cases whose condition could worsen and slovenia is relaxing some of its coronavirus rules ski resorts and some shops will be allowed to open and migrant

workers from most e.u. countries will no longer be required to present negative coronavirus tests and here are some more of the stories making headlines around the world. u.s. president joe biden has said in a television interview that he believes his predecessor donald trump should not receive classified intelligence briefings because of what he called trump's erratic behavior briefings are a courtesy that historically have been granted to outgoing presidents the white house says the fact this is now under review. thousands of people have attended government rallies in tunis to lease lockdown large parts of the city ahead of the demonstration the country's largest in years tunisia's revolution 11 years ago sparked the arab spring the country is now mired in political turmoil and economic decline. in china people in the city of one hand have been paying

tribute to a whistleblower doctor on the anniversary of his death lee when yang warned about the spread of the corona virus back in december 29000 but was reprimanded by police for doing so is death from code 19 sparked an outpouring of public anger over the government's handling of the outbreak. snow sleet and strong winds the german weather service issued a severe weather warning for northern and central germany going well into monday forecasters warn of up to 50 centimeters of snow fall roads are expected to be icy and dangerous strong winds are already lashing northern germany the words there are working hard to keep road conditions safe train service has been suspended in parts of the country authorities are asking residents in the affected areas to stay at home if at all possible. and our correspondent is in hanover in central germany bracing himself for what might come tell us what's

expected there. well lots and lots of snow to be frank it's a tale of extern in germany at the moment because a poll of vortex is sending i see down from the arctic while at the very same time a warm front is sending. polar warm front i should say is sending warm weather from southern europe and basically where those 2 weather fronts meet is where the real fun happens as you say up to 50 centimeters of snow expected lots and lots of wind and ice rain and of course when all of that happens. all of the traffic chaos that that goes along with an extreme weather events such as this one sure and if it's not in a part of the world where people are used to dealing with that kind of weather it's

a very big deal and how are people preparing there. well the police and authorities have told people basically to stay at home and people are used to doing that because of the coronavirus hand i think for a long time now people have been staying at home more also what's seen happening is there's lots of more equipment out on the highways to clear the snow that he's going to comment also some cities like girls and have prepared extra beds for homeless people. ok if you give us your greed reporting from hanover thanks for that. and while we're bracing for snow here in germany in other parts of europe something more unusual has been falling from the sky sand and it's come all the way from the sahara across the mediterranean brought by strong winds skies as far north as switzerland took on a fiery glow of light in andorra snowy ski slopes turned orange underfoot as they

were coated with a fine layer of dissent a phenomenon takes place almost every year but if you're a meteorologist say weather conditions made this time around especially spectacular . and we turn to sports now in the bundesliga her to berlin hosts are hosted by our new nick despite a mini blizzard byron weren't fazed by the elements winning one nail to stay clear at the top of the table the bavarians had hoped to make short work of the capital club but heard that we're simply not prepared to roll over. lin versus buying a match up well worth watching is how to typically up their game against the record champions for recently rehired coach paul darvill it was the 1st home game back at the helm and his side put in another strong effort by and did win the penalty in the 11 minutes which saw robert lewandowski step up he scored all goals in this

season's previous 43 victory over how to this time he was denied by whom the yosh line back between the posts under the new coach and repaying the faith. however he could not prevent by in scoring 10 minutes later kingsley commom benefited from a hefty deflection the frenchman put in a lively performance and was rewarded with a slice of luck. after the break how to held the fort and kept counter-attacking they even hit the back of the net just before the hour mark only to have the goal ruled out for an offside position in the build up. the capital club put in a strong performance in the 2nd game underdog i but it did not yield any points by him got the win and then hurried off the pitch to catch their flight to the club world cup in qatar. now byron's victory put the pressure on 2nd place rb

leipzig in saturday's programme of fixtures but they managed to stay on byron's tails with a 30 win at bottom side shall for iran's leaders 7 points over dortmund lost again in a 21 defeat at freiburg in 4 goals for one of burke later accused got back on track in style and stood guard and struggling might scribe a rare one nil win over len there is byron's went on friday a big brian darby is taking place shortly and 2 matches follow on sunday. yeah well sorry about that we're just going to look having a look at the bundesliga table. on match day it shows 20 shows byron still leading the way have to 7 points leipzig remain 2nd with wolf and 3rd labor queues and go 4th pending frankfurt's game on sunday and dortmund stay down in 63 points for the top in the bottom half of the table it continues to look very grim for shell minds

also its owner. today both khandala can use his robotic arm to carry out amazingly precise and fluid movements for him the ai based technology has opened up a new realm of possibilities. there isn't much of this system is the fact that it has to be just of me having to adapt to the system it's a game changer i don't have to think about what i want my robot to do for them it's just does it automatically of them are. both gone by is a farmer who lives in bavaria in southeastern germany. tending to his crops and livestock is all he's ever wanted to do but after a farming accident his lower arm had to be amputated to continue farming he needed an artificial limb. daniella versed deferred works for the prosthesis manufacturer auto box she specializes in teaching patients like. how to use their

ai based robotic limbs the initial training process takes several weeks this specially designed to cuff is fitted with 8 pairs of electrodes they recognize tiny movements in the muscles of the upper arm and app visualizes these tiny movements and stores them as movement patterns. is good and of looking for the cuff and are connected by bluetooth and in them inside the cuff there are lots of electrodes. these tiny impulses in both kinds of muscles will be transferred on to the out. wolfgang bauer is learning how to use his robotic limb the tiny muscle impulses he's learning need to be as distinct as possible that way the press that it can link each impulse to a specific movement. is not starting from scratch even after an amputation the

brain remembers the patterns of movement needed to do things like open or close a hand once muscle impulses become associated with specific movements the robotic limb will use ai to learn specific movement patterns. the electrodes inside the robotic limb register the muscle impulses from the upper arm. the app matches these muscular patterns to specific movements and stores them. while. it was learning the basics the company's engineers were building his robotic limb now it's ready to learn and adapt to both gone by was movement patterns. all the patient has to do is imagine carrying out all the image with the missing hand the system can distinguish among those imagined movements and then carry it out through a robotic limbs like this are a major increase in quality of life controlling the move this is just amazing you

have to do is imagine opening your hand and the robot opens imagine close it and it closes same with rotating the prosthetic arm just carries out the movement. more. german prosthetics manufacturer auto bach is charting new territory the technology only works on for arm prosthetics but that might change soon. and researchers are working on making the technology even more sophisticated. but right now we're working systems to provide sensitive feedback to their wearers so prosthetics can then actually feel as some point i'm sure will be able to provide feedback on temperature or the information about the surface of the object being touched. it will take many more months of training and therapy for both gone by hour to

continue refining how he uses his intelligent robotic forearm he's made a lot of progress already with a lot of patients and practice he and his robotic limb will eventually become a well oiled team. if you just have to carry with it the risk of when something doesn't work you just have to keep trying it some movements work right away while others require more time and for that practice important. practice will help the ai based device continue to learn and improve the high tech robotic arm the training and therapy and the customized fitting cost around 60000 euros. model can perform 14 different grasping movements and hand positions it's precise enough for typing on a keyboard or using a mobile phone. each finger contained separate small motors that allows each finger

to move and grasp objects in a more natural and coordinated manner and he can swap out the hand depending on what he's working on when he's cleaning the barn he uses a sturdy one that can only rotate. close. the more delicate hand can perform most any movement. quite honestly and i can't imagine my life without his boss the says i use a prosthesis all day long to mention what i'm currently dealing with i use for everyday purposes at home to use for things like. there are so many things i use it for. and thanks to his robot arm wolfgang bauer can still tend to his farm. a lot of a kind championship as i but the one developers from around the world present their

newest technical assistance systems to competitors code pilots compete in a range of disciplines. and the need to listen he's been wearing a purse that i can't for more than 30 years. outfitted with some very clever technology he's competing in the side with long arm discipline. he's determined to win. bad colson lives in the swiss capital of baghdad he's turned his home into a training camp. he's recreated the side with lawn course here in his own apartment every day he practices all sorts of hand movements with his prosthesis trying to be as fast and precise as possible the tasks are challenging but this is exactly what his prosthetic hand was built to do

. with the criticism of the electric posse says that means i can control it using muscle impulses that are detected by electrodes in the device i can open it and. it . exists but it didn't include that function. which feels more reliable to me. and is the most important thing to me. long 2020 was supposed to be a major event all the planning was complete but then the coded 19 pandemic hit. the pentagon wouldn't be over anytime soon and that we'd still be dealing with this september but we decided to change the format. for a lot. this was federal institute of technology or zurich decided to go
