german and jewish starts feb 22nd on b w. place . this is day w. news live from berlin new pandemic chris trick sions come into full circle germany's borders the country closes its front 2 years we'd parts of austria and the czech republic after a surge in coronavirus mutations on its doorstep the e.u. says the travel ban is a step too far we'll hear from our correspondent one of the new checkpoints also coming up shining a light on russia's political crackdown protesters hold flashlight protests across

russia to show support for just didn't alexei know sounding and others who've been increasing their braving icy weather and threats of arrest. and in this league of football high flying from food extend their unbeaten streak to 10 games and move up to 3rd place in the standings often easily dispensing with visitors kolob. i'm jarid red thank you for joining me we begin here in germany which has banned travel from parts of neighboring austria and the czech republic now these restrictions are aimed at stopping the spread of highly contagious variants of the corona virus which have been detected in several border regions the e.u. has criticized the travel shutdown which also has businesses and workers worried.

little has gotten through this checkpoint at the austrian german border since early sunday many drivers were told to turn around commuters from the austrian state of to role were sent back unless they work in what has been deemed essential services the same applies at the czech german border in the town of show ending plenty of drivers had to turn tail. we have also ensured that people can be tested who in theory would be allowed to enter germany but who do not possess the valid results of a covert 1000 test. and people seem understanding on the check side but many are still desperate some are even considering temporarily moving to germany they said poor communication is mostly to blame and if. there's no information we don't know a thing we drive to work tomorrow we have to go into quarantine. and.

i'm having a hard time do i belong to the essential services sector will they allow me to cross over i don't know. if we will be broke and we need to work and get tough without work if you have a family back home you have to pay for everything there's no plan b. the czech commuters association has criticized by various officials for not informing czechia about the new rules it called that a lack of respect. minimal to matt but we won't let ourselves be forced to live in germany we're not german citizens we work there and we pay taxes there now the borders are closed again just like they were 30 years ago to be at. that was when an iron curtain separated east and west todays reason the pandemic and a battle over case numbers covert $1000.00 restrictions in czechoslovakia and parts of austria are much less tight right now than in germany going to be in the us we

can't allow that these severe measures the limits in place here turn out to be for nothing the chairman people have been behaving in exemplary fashion but such cases and situations can seriously endanger things that's why we have border checks and why we're turning people back because i believe that's necessary my not exist nor to be. the german states of bavaria and saxony could issue new guidelines by tuesday exempting some sectors from the travel ban. well correspondent bob. crossing at the very end she says the closure is raising new warriors in the region . just a couple of weeks ago european leaders said agreed upon not to do this anymore just to close the borders and any more like the one we see here in the back between the czech republic and germany without telling beforehand talk to each other and soul

of the problem of or to do was cross border workers but the bavarian thora cheese have their own mind they declared today that it was more important to save citizens from the spread of the british who ryan off the krona virus then keeping the region going and keeping companies here supplied with workers however here in the in the border area in the region that employs about $90000.00 czech workers companies i really worried about that they might have to close all slowed down production and that is not a setback after the economic fallout of the coronavirus anyway so they are very worried politically however we have to remind ourselves that 2020 is an election year and it seems that a certain amount of grandstanding by certain politicians here in germany may have

played a role in this. very well in russia supporters of child opposition leader alexina valmy have held another day of protests over the ongoing crackdown against his supporters and criminal and critics authorities have threatened to arrest those who defy a ban on demonstrations and so activists have been using flowers and flashlights to show solidarity with victims of political repression. as dusk fell the lights in the so-called flash like protests went on across russia supporters of opposition figure head alexina volley switched on lights in a display of unity in the siberian city tomsk the protests motto love is stronger than fear shone down from the window of an apartment building. earlier in the day hundreds of russian women formed a human chain in central moscow this time to show solidarity for novell these wife

. and other women who've become victims of the crackdown since his imprisonment here to this same message love is stronger than figo the women took this message to the streets despite threats of record kushner's by the state. there was little if there actually even i didn't used to protest i was scared and i'm scared now i don't know what consequences there will be but i'm more afraid about the thought that if i don't come out if others don't come out then everything will stay the same. of any kind whether it's political violence or domestic that's why we're here for love was needed we need any sort of solidarity you know because alexina valley is the most well known political prisoner now some people forget that there are also a lot of women in this team who are also being persecuted for their political opinions and for their work. despite warnings from the authorities not to protest

today these women have come out to show they're not afraid and the flowers in their hands and their heart stickers show that they want to remain peaceful. that was emily's show and in moscow there are some of the other stories making news around the world today parties in catalonia that favor breaking away from spain have boosted their majority in the regional polman following sunday's election but the socialist party which opposes independence looks set to claim victory as the biggest party. the west african nation of guinea has declared a new ebola epidemic after an outbreak in a town near the liberian border at least 3 people have died and 4 of those a known to be infected if the 1st cases to take didn't get instant 2016 the world health organization is helping deliver vaccines and contain the outbreak the. western embassies in myanmar urging the military to her friends from violence

they may have escaped civil war but they still haven't found safety. bartend frame standing among chart ruins the reminder of the horrible night 4 weeks ago when up to fact that game lost his 10 year old daughter. in the bitter cold his 10 neighbors were trying to light a homemade furnace when the entire tent went up in flames. the fire spread very quickly there were huge flames and a motorcycle and some fuel exploded all the tents caught fire my wife and children were trapped inside only fife made it out of their homes and. their youngest daughter also suffered severe burns and the aid organization brought the one year old to turkey for medical treatment doctors have sent messages and videos but the family's not allowed to visit. the border with turkey is closed

to syrian refugees the mother fatima can barely stand it. so i hope so much that you come back healthy but i saw the fire i fear the worst ever since the whole. tragedies like these happened frequently in the makeshift camps in the northern eclipse tens of thousands of people are living here in miserable conditions there like even basic necessities latrines food heating fuel and medical care. constant heavy rain has now made the situation worse people here were cut off from all supplies for days many tents were destroyed age organisations have been doing their best but are totally overwhelmed the situation is made even worse by the rampant coronavirus infection rate in egypt province has risen dramatically. following the of the contiguous we've done what we can and together with other aid organizations and the white helmets we've tried to

raise awareness about the coronavirus. we've handed out masks and disinfectant but given the desperate situation it's not enough. absolute family are simply glad that the aid organization has given them a new tent some clothing and even a new furnace but they hardly use it despite the cold they have no money for fuel and they are terrified of using it anyway. enough to leave my children and i have a psychological problem in the tent we are afraid to light the furnace when my husband isn't here so our children panic and start screaming when they see fire it's very very hard for us. when they fled the fighting and their rates up to 5 tough thought they would only be here for a few days but now it's been 14 months and they are too afraid to go back home to

southern eclipse because the fighting rages on. around 11000000 undocumented immigrants live in the usa during the trump era they lived in fear of deportation president biden has promised them a path to citizenship but many are still worried. that is what brings them together even on a cold day and meet the pandemic. it's the 4th anniversary of the massive travel ban imposed by former president donald trump and now revoked by one of president biden's 1st executive orders. and so this ban from the get go should not have ever been made it's rooted in divisiveness fear mongering in haiti and the fact that it separated so many families for so long is just it's cruel and it's going to be race i'm here in support of the action all of us meaning that we're demanding to the

white house and congress president biden. we need justice for everybody meaning. citizenship for all 11000000 undocumented immigrants and to all deportations and the tensions in the back are i from believe to the united states with her 2 sons 20 years ago and hasn't been homesick so her sons know no other country than their own the united states they were granted legal status by the dream act but they still don't have a u.s. citizenship so. it's hard to be an immigrant here it's painful it's sad it's hard work you have to fight a lot. she arrived with a tourist visa and never left undocumented immigrants like ingrid a contraflow 5 percent of the workforce in the united states they are part of the backbone of the economy and houses offices hospitals and doing the domestic work for many american families. because of the pandemic ingrid has lost her main source

of income now she's also lost her home because she can't pay the rent anymore but she says what hurts most is not to be able to visit her family. it is difficult to visit our countries because if we leave we will not be allowed to enter again and it just for many immigrants solidarity and the will to fight have grown even stronger despite the pandemic and the trumpet ministrations malise says and for those hoping to become an american citizen that toll now has a name joe biden. by. the corona virus hit germany hard but in a city in the state of mecklenburg for palm and the infection rate is much lower than the national average what are they doing differently.

is it the cool baltic breeze or the rather calm and collected mindset. of people in the north of germany so far they have made it well through the covert crisis especially here in the city of. infection numbers are currently lower than the german everett. to supernews we are disciplined northern germans are quite different from everyone else. we're a bit more nordic and distance anyway maybe that's our secret recipe timing might have been one reason very early on the city started testing more people than ever it masks quickly became mandatory in designated places and alcohol was spent on the streets earlier than in most places in germany. another reason might be him of our stocks mayor he is originally from denmark and had just started his political career when the pandemic hit before that he was an entry printer helpful when

leading a team. people looked very surprised when i said now we're going to shut everything down it took 15 minutes and then they started working all together as a strong team and immediately put my words in action and i can understand that when the new mayor suddenly says we're going to shut everything down here we're going to get. a search reason for the lower number of infections could be the north specs a nation strategy relative to its inhabitants they have vaccinated more people than any other region in germany and there is something else a few family doctors are gaining nationwide attention because they started vaccinating people in their own practice unique in germany because so far people had to go to vaccination centers to get the chap administering it has been doable for doctors here contrary to popular belief the biotech pfizer vaccine can be stored at normal french temperature for a couple of days. my wish of course would be that when we have enough vaccine

available in the near future that we will have proven with this model project it's possible the family doctors can do the vaccinations let us broaden this idea and let the family doctors take over newbern him. but germany is still missing vaccine doses until that problem is solved the country's north will have to continue counting on its discipline and maybe the fresh baltic breeze. our last stop is russia for a ride on the moscow metro after a decades long ban women can once again drive for the capital cities rapid transit system. women are finally in the driving seat and are pushing full speed ahead on gender equality in the russian capital. started working for the moscow metro almost 18 years ago

at the time women were not allowed to operate subway trains at russia but arenas says for her it was worth the wait. this is my childhood dream i used to play with model ships and airplanes with the boys my father is a pilot so why the metro somehow it drew me and the fact that it's underground i guess it's like flying but under the ground. irina is proud to be one of the 1st 12 female metro drivers after all the moscow subway is legendary the soviet government started building it in the 1930 s. calling it a palace for the people for commuting workers in the 1980 s. the government decided women had no place driving these trains they said the metro is too deep underground too loud and too dark for women and the vibration from the trains could damage their so-called childbearing function even now women drivers

are only being deployed on the most modern trains and only operate one line that runs partially over ground despite the fact that they get the exact same training as their male counterparts. in russia 100 jobs remain off limits for women for example metal manufacturing like the work in this steel mill mining and drilling on an oil rig are still considered men's work russian lawmakers insist the restrictions are still relevant today. we treat women with care here these tough jobs and hard labor are still seen as men's work in our society also women are mothers so providing for and taking care of their health and their reproductive functions is important that's why we used recommendations from doctors to determine factors that are harmful to women at work .

is on her way to her next shift the 38 year old says the metro feels like a 2nd home to her especially now that she's in the driving seat and the arena is optimistic the other band jobs won't be off limits to women forever. i'm sure they're working on it already but bands must be in place for a reason so the government must be taking care of women i would tell other women to keep believing and hoping no matter what you want to become everything is possible . eating a dog already has her dream job and the next group of women will start training to become drivers soon but outside of these metro tunnels gender equality is still a long way off as.

comfortable. for sporting the octavia r.s. i.v. has the best of both worlds the successful model from skoda is now also a plug in hybrid. the multi-faceted car is great for everyday use and a bit of fun. wrapped up. moves the secret to a perfectly fried potato in the foot gives some notional dishes their distinctive character. above the love. of. europe's favorite dishes with their small and big secrets you know series food secrets

of the over. 39 d. w. . what secrets lie behind teams want to. discover new adventures in 360 degree. and explore fascinating world heritage sites the clay w. world heritage 360 getting up now. yes well. today. i get to check out the all new. and i think this is going to be a blast. we are living during the most extraordinary. history. of crimes for people before

the electorate. that is to dispose of them in. a way you have to do with the music of the a plug in hybrid. i mean i mean that. sounds it sounds strange. to wrap his. mind and want to do videos seem to keep the same ones. everywhere those you find. into it what. would you do. to create easy. rebellion and revolution now.

all. for everyday use. but why not have told. more than 20 per cent. sold r s models. and i will check out if. i can fulfill that need. to. listen to that. chick today because i get to check out the all news. and this is going to be

a blast. so . available with 3 different engines to leader t.s.i. engine 245 horsepower. and we're testing right here. which has 245 horsepower us well combined power of the electric engine and a 1.4 lead gasoline engine and furthermore we do have 2 leader diesel which has 200 horsepower. the 4th generation of the is the 1st one to be. driving specs. makes from 0 to 107.3 seconds top speed of 225 kilometers an hour. a little past. 6.7 or

6.8 seconds for 02 on the kilometers. and the top speed of 250 kilometers an. hour test hybrid comes with a 13 kilowatt hour battery which according to school to translate speech was on the electric range of around 60 kilometers. so it's usual. if you have a mode switch where you can choose between different drop. well it's. normal and sport for them off course 'd because we have the i.v. version we can go into emotes but that's a different story let's talk about the sport boat for a 2nd if i press the sport button then something really strange happens because the 1.4 still in the engine turns into a 304 lead a v 8 engine listen to that.

i mean i mean that. sounds it sounds strange of course everything is it's it's not official noise but. considering the horsepower the car actually has too much the sound is too much definitely but no worries you would only hear that on the inside so the people won't notice and if you want you can set an individual drive mode where you can even if you have everything else in sports you can deactivate the official engine sound. back to the. practice of course that 60 kilometer electric range is not really feasible. our man emmanuel did lease manage to crack 40 keys with the help of regenerative braking. beasties a car designed for regular city traffic. by the way we're charging a completely flat battery takes around 5 hours. so driving impression in the

car is as you would expect at the chorus quite sporty and if you accelerate the future pretty good even though it's only 1.4 leave the engine the only thing is it's. silent in here but it's still ok. from the outside the rest looks just like it's gasoline diesel counterparts. with one difference with the battery installed in the rear of the vehicle floor you know which protected the id so it's a little higher than it says. 50 millimeters higher to be precise. even though the octavia just based on a compact car platform there is quite a lot of space in here it's pretty roomy i have decent leg room very much headroom and the seats are quite comfortable as well and there are some cool features bank

here for example. this armrest if you don't have more than 4 passengers and you can also add. smartphone holder right here so you can operate your smartphone or watch a movie or do whatever you like and if you get tired of the way and then just like most there are these little helpers here that will keep your head straight and then you won't wake up with your neck hurting pretty nice. has a sporty look. like quality to some solid work. with a 10 inch screen you stand. on the down side the id hybrid has much less cargo capacity than the regular. consequence of the battery taking up so much space under

the truck. as you can tell. pretty roomy car for everyday use 490 leader for the i.v. version so you will lose 150 leader of cargo space due to the battery but you can go up to 1555 liters if you fold down the rear seats and i think for a car in that segment that's pretty much space. well basically this is gold we're sitting on a golf platform and considering the engine. go drive train so basically we're sitting in a car that doesn't exist over at fox wagons because golf. just not exist as a station wagon so if you want that drive train then you can either take this

scotto r s all you could choose. which is available with the. same engine as well. with a base price of $44000.00 euros the cost around 10 percent. since . w one basically uses most of the parts. all the system systems you could wish for and then make your everyday driving way more. inclusive cruise control and detection those are optional and the europe cost around $500.00 euros extra. but the. course. also looks pretty nice in the interior. look little bit. bucket

seats are still quite comfortable. plus the seats are fitted as standard. so. i had quite a bit of fun driving it. to be honest if i had to choose between these 3 versions 'd. then i guess i would take a regular gasoline engine simply because it's a little cheaper a little more powerful. then maybe. i would get rid of this artificial. right here and have a little more. fortunately he's the option of turning off that can. be a sporty and spacious car with

a purely electric drive most ideal for city traffic. but he really could do without those annoying sound effects. breakfast love hospital but why do they rubio's always look the same sicko breath videos. everywhere. you find most. the only briton the one in the red video and by that made the record you say you know the old. number 5 is a situation by lingo they should. go through the drive the car like

that to be fair with the that's not a unique it's a family event and in the t.v. t.v. who mostly use behind human services and it's definitely not the car you want to see in red video love. the sutra unveiling had enough and the wrecked video was incomplete he is a british prime artist and he told us the rest. he calls himself mike because he's 1.5 meters tall. when stoli wanted to shoot his problem using video to single note me for all the back in 2015 he had a problem he already shown a video in a team in a studio with professional anything but at the end he thought it was rubbish he didn't like it he thought it was a cheese roll i'm enough to aggressive. the 2nd video was supposed to be a one take shot. running around the streets of london however.

by a car. i guess what call that was it was the cit triggered berlingo i know it's ugly slow but it made this music video very special. our number 4 is a rolls royce school mishit called blood civil wow that is a car because nice to be slain from the sunny road in la coste fellows i feel like i'm on the weather we're going to have the risk over the few clouds. the color needs composable was 1st built in 1971 with a v 8 engine and production ended in 2001 so in 30 years they only build around 70 houses and of that about you know jim this caught in

a flashy car no one ever really dies because the rep trio. are shot hugo chaves hayley. williams. and they turn a rolls royce called nisha convertible into a unique piece of. wow and by that he wanted to pay tribute to john lennon and the beatles i love live beatles john lennon told a rolls royce phantom by the way crean elizabeth the 2nd only one to. when john lennon bought his phantom in 1960 full it was all black just after

finishing the legendary beatles album sergeant pepper's lonely hearts up john lennon decided he wanted his car repainted and he must have been in the flower of it this is what they made of it. looks like it's all been a l.s.d. trip was jordan lennon bit because he wanted to make a statement to the english establishment. in 1905 this solmes to the canadian businessmen who paid $2300000.00 for coming so hard mean drugs your company john lennon scoffed in this video called in fog in 2010 is there any better i caught my hitchhiking than this one. you'll remember the old m.t.v. show my ride will rep a exhibit used to. be if you will i mean you write. the

number 3 has had considered a make over the show 100 in full the french revolution will by manufacture up to joe could use nearly 3000000 worldwide most of them only had up to 75 horsepower so if you use people who are rated as old. you haven't seen a fall in a full with a see through roof you can lowering lights have you let's talk about when i can is a british record and also an activist she fights for human rights because she was a refugee how so when parents fled from civil war in sri lanka but most of all a look you see these are the feet of the red videos for us so bad.

she didn't already shoot a great video she also created our own call. and why a full 400 full 8 seen through. this is one of the greatest threats i have a. no no but. $57.00 it's was $350000.00 u.s. dollars and he belongs to rep as jay z. and kanye west jay z. was crowned. billionaire anyway just wanted to become the next u.s. president.

and for that video. i got of my about 57 cost i'm a lie about was part of my new effect. and built only luxury calls. they probably didn't like what they saw when these 2 came up and drop the whole. lives thing is. the space shuttle and all you have is now it's about james dean. it was a high class project so they gave the call to an auction company to sell it i guess

they got this my buck 57 destroyed by kani was jay z. . he was so far only $60000.00 but it was was $350000.00 before they reached roy. so they just all with the money. why are you still watching this is i know it because you also just as unique ever seen in the right number one is that as time a try. to. long flight is one of the transformers you tried such a thing maybe on the lose. to the tesla cybertron is made of bullet

on. their art on wheels. and the saunders of the u.k. plays with existing models colors and shapes modifying the cars to achieve his vision. and when the designer takes his main automotive parts project the tetanus out on the roads of southern england he's living his dream. is here. he's bringing this problem with luck. these days lovely is the best call that roberto. has logged on scope. i've approached to talk over road to go and all just it gives you such a thrill because it is of its own goalball you. know because it's a company called pizza an amalgamation of everything. and the

saunders ambition is to build cars that have never been seen before. he spares no effort nor expense. all that should explain was 17 years building these call. these 7 fires and i was going through this construction you can't do this amount of work with my passion. he started work on the tetanus in 2003 it's based on a rare vintage 1937. the contours are inspired by the shape of a drop of water. most of his works are based on wrecked or derelict antique cars like this 1940 serra peugeot pickup truck and he saunders took it apart and turned it into his custom designed metropolis car when he's at work on a new piece of automotive part time becomes an important. flying
