usually it was an incredible feeling. of the people who were liberated. they had hoped for more security more freedom more dignity have their hopes been fulfilled. where does the arab world stand today 10 years after the arab spring. arabella and starts june 7th on d w. sunday was the deadliest day of fighting between israelis and hamas and as the attacks interest 2nd week all signs point to a crisis going from bad to worse hamas today threaten to point more of its rockets towards tel of eve and the israeli prime minister says the campaign of air strikes in gaza will take more time can diplomacy break through yet another cycle of death and destruction and could a roadmap to peace involve

a detour through northern ireland tonight a methodist minister from belfast tells me there is a way to get from hate to hope i bring call from berlin this is the day. we've been working intensively behind the scenes to try to bring an end to the conflict. israel has no choice but to stop these comments that that's where ever they are being launched. is a decent you. put yourself through the issues that israel is not with. it is willing to meet to. stop the bloodshed this question of the violence. every single line of the human life

is a tragedy the senseless cycle of outfit terror that is not. also coming up he's been poisoned and thrown in prison and should kremlin critic alexina of all me be labeled an extremist well that's now up to a russian court the decision could crush the country's political opposition not the example of alexina valmy who came back to russia knowing that he would almost definitely be arrested strengthens my sent. but sometimes you have to pay a personal price in order for you and your country to have a bright future. to our fuehrer's on p.b.s. in the united states and to all of you around the world welcome we begin the day beginning a 2nd week of bloodshed between israelis and palestinians with no end in sight it has been

a week since hamas and israeli forces began exchanging rocket fire and missile strikes across a border battle is now the deadliest in 7 years some 200 palestinians have been killed in israel 10 people have died as this 2nd week of fighting begins the battlegrounds are expanding last week residents in both israel and gaza looked in fear to the skies now israeli forces are targeting below ground the network of tunnels known as the metro which israel says hamas uses to move weapons and to avoid detection the pressure for a diplomatic solution is growing tonight the u.s. in egypt and qatar have sent mediators to diffuse the situation the u.s. says those mediators need more time to convince both sides to say yes to she managed hereon pauses in the fighting yesterday the u.n. security council met for the 1st time to discuss the crisis here is the u.n. secretary general. to lead the polish. these latest round of

violence slowly but equate the sight of that this doctrine of the fair and which is involved in the eyes in any hope that we exist of and be through fighting felt it must. be. where the international community is asking for a ceasefire but israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says the fighting will continue he w. spoke earlier today to israel's ambassador to germany jeremy issacharoff and asked him hell for israel is willing to go. no we didn't see this exchange and essentially i think you need again how must needs to cease their rocket fire on israel i don't tell it does israel will not this is to end defending its citizens so i mean the question has to be addressed to them. and as far as what i'm concerned i do not see this as something that has to be protracted without and eventually it will come to a close there are

a lot of different conversations happening now. there are conversations between the americans and israel we also have very open channels between the foreign minister of germany who's speaking to qatar speaking to egypt and he's also speaking frequently to the ashkenazi the foreign minister and i also believe there will simply very continuing high level discussions that will go on in the coming hours where no doubt the israeli palestinian conflict counts as one of the world's most entrenched and it appears resilient to reconciliation but my 1st guest tonight says and into conflict even in the most hopeless situations is possible gary mason is a methodist minister from belfast northern ireland he played an important role in the northern irish peace process which resulted in the 1998 good friday agreement since then he has continued to work for peace at home and has expanded his reconciliation efforts abroad his work has been recognized by the queen queen

elizabeth and former u.s. president bill clinton over mason we are happy to have you on the program with us tonight it's good to see you i know that some viewers may be asking what in the world does the conflict in northern ireland have in common with the current fighting between israelis and palestinians i mean the 2 seem worlds apart in just about everything what do you say to that. i think at the root of most conflicts invariably you have the issue of identity the issue lound on the issue of religion and i would say here here is the night that i am not comparing the 2 conflicts and saying they are identical but in relation to some of the lessons from the northern irish peace process they were upset people to many spaces from the middle east so i thought frigga colombia that president some thoughts the colombian president said recently that the good friday agreement had a significant and fluence on him as he tried to bring peace to colombia so you're

exactly right they're not identical but at the root causes of most conflict is a breakdown and shimon relationships and lounged identity and religion and deservedly are playing a bite to some degree and loose work like conflicts in 2015 you founded the nonprofit rethinking conflict and on the website it reads that the organization seeks to model the principles of the historic good friday agreement and apply them to more fractured edges of society so i mean i knew we could go into all of that maybe you could give us the sheet the cheat sheet version of how you do this with the israelis and the palestinians. yes i suppose if we were having this conversation interestingly in the early 1990 s. we have here what people call a mutually correcting it so very simply put the british army were not going to think the ira the ira were never going to think one of the most elite armies in the

world and the loyalist groupings were not going to defeat the ira and i guess what spilled out in our city is in the early 1990 s. leading up to the good friday agreement was political leaders began to realise that they needed to take risks to achieve peace but it was also a strong desire within northern irish society grif help from the united states from people like george mitchell and bill clinton and the european union a real desire to break the cycle of hollands the see a future generations from the horrors of conflict but interestingly when i'm working with this release and palestinians invariably they say to me they say gary you don't understand and i don't say tell me what i don't understand they say diverse new trust and i often remind him of some of the work that night and an hour east contacts. duce 1st meetings there was no trust i often kind of say tongue in cheek do you think it was all hugs and quick kisses and the ice contacts when warri

enemies met for the 1st time they despise each other trust never comes at the start of a process that comes through giallo times meeting secretly meeting commitments building confidence through concrete actions but only other key components we realize lists but it tends to us all of our conflict through military force was ultimately free time and i actually didn't result insists the end it will security for either community so it simply went like this it is you that knew it as a as a journalist and a political commentator you hurt us we will hurt you but when people here realize that download needed to be prioritized and we address that the root causes of the conflict not that count opened up the door to what still is a franchise and of peace process and i wouldn't hold the good friday agreement as

utopia we are still a sign a building peace but since the good friday agreement they've been very very shrewd deaths in relation to political violence let me ask you reverend last year you brought israelis palestinians and northern irish people together for a zoom virtual meeting in tell me about that what did the israelis in the palestinians what did they want to know most from the northern irish. yeah. the size of israelis and palestinians and bathos of the doubling of the last 10 years but interesting concept you refer to the it was a younger generation twenty's and thirty's and when it was over and some of the great things on afterwards both the israelis and palestinians said quite categorically the northern irish people who testify as irish and british on their stand are protected conflict they said you know sometimes with other young people who are not in trouble zones so we are not comparing like with like but i think

it's reasonable of the say we were comparing 8 pm with pm and looking at our situation which is not utopia but looking back over the last 23 years the space i live in and i'm speaking to you from tonight is a tremendous amount different than c.s.i. grew up i remember as a as a little boy in 1988 we have a terrorist incident every 40 minutes today and 2021 we don't have a terrorist incident every 40 minutes knocked a huge change and so much is a major change so much of what you were talking about 2 immediate centers around the way people talk to each other and the way they talk about each other flare ups between israel and hamas they've been referred to by israelis and i'm quoting here as campaigns to mow the grass and critics say that this only dehumanizing people on the other side so talk to me about the power of language to keep the fighting going

into how we're to bring about peace yes i mean some israelis are furious focusing on the nests i mean one great jewish the other genset dehumanizing precedes genocide. and jonathan sacks the former chief rabbi of the british commonwealth you saw he died of cancer there just a number of months ago uses this grid for is linguistic the home. i bring religion and to the cinema a night more than happy to say the history of the christian church is not clean either as regards linguistic violence where we kind of virtually assassinate the other person theologically because they do believe exactly as i did so we need leaders that israeli and palestinian society you're speaking into those spaces because it's reality there's a new solution and the comfort zone of woman's womb absoluteness position there's a great ted talk of your viewers if we want to watch and you chip simply hold the

d.n.c. chair of the single narrative. there's new single narrative solution and yet it was no single narda solution in the british context no victory for one side or the other and the irony is of one side door as when a victory we end up passing the interim can't ration to generation really let me ask you before we run out of time if the european union if the european union or if the us president were to phone you in and say they would like for you to help with mediating some type of humanitarian pause in the fighting what would be your response. it's i think a lot to let's not spend a lifetime talking to people pursuing violence on all sides of my conflict but at the end of the day the good friday agreement the key thing really that george mitchell that was he created a win win situation for both sides soha in the israeli palestinian conflict for

ordinary people for the short time we have and planet earth highly critical win win situation for palin stiliyan children for israeli children to give those kids a new beginning and you future if nate's leadership the step of the public speeches to feast on their tractors and to lead from the front reverend jerry mason it's been very interesting talking with you we appreciate your time and your insights an important voice needed to be heard around the world right now thank you. thank you best wishes. expected a decision next month that could be the final blow for the country's political opposition the court will decide whether or not to label kremlin critical as an extremist the designation could mean long prison sentences for activists convicted of opposing russia's leadership he sure went tonight on the power of a label for those still daring to dissent in russia. this

letter seals the deal it officially ends on the contract with these team andre head of the opposition politicians regional office interfere for 4 years. russia will be free he says one day was arrested at recent on authorized protests his team organized into the air but now his office along with 36 others in the campaign network have had to close russia's state prosecutor wants them declared extremist under a tells us he wants to create a new local political organization to keep working. for politics was always centered on the russian capital moscow but thanks to the of on the campaign offices political activity has bubbled up across russia's regions now it's time for us regions to jump into the deep end and swim for ourselves it's hard and dangerous but it's a necessary phase in the development of political life not only in fairness but

across the country. and that he and his team have become friends over the years like andre most of them have been arrested several times and have accepted threats and pressure as the price to pay for pushing back against the kremlin but the extremist label takes that to another level it could make symbols like this and for me illegal activists found to be part of an extremist organization could face up to 10 years in prison. i lost my job and when i tried to get a new one recently they told me in private that their security service wouldn't let them hire me we have already had problems with work. if they really start tightening the screws and i see that they're making a show of putting former employees activists and volunteers of the not only offices in jail of course i will think about how i may have to lay low somewhere for a while. but. even

people outside if not by nice actual team have been facing increasingly serious consequences for protesting against the government earlier this year thousands were detained during demonstrations in support of me and there have been several reports of employers firing people for backing the politician since the recent protests in support of alec say now by any kremlin critics across russia had been under increasing pressure and that pressure is unlikely to let up ahead of parliamentary elections in september including for the activists here. but i'm very proud is unrelentingly optimistic the 31 year old wants to keep pushing for a more democratic russia and he says he's willing to take personal risks to further strengthen the role of civil society in his home city and the whole to their region . similarly. the example of alexina vali who came back to russia knowing that he would almost definitely be arrested strengthens my

sense that sometimes you have to pay a personal price in order for you and your country to have a bright future. now and that he wants to register as a candidate for the regional parliament in the upcoming elections he hopes his association with now by nice team won't get him barred from running. in for morning i would like to speak with him. sure colt's executive director of the anti-corruption foundation in london he's also a close friend alexi the volunteer mr record it's good to have you on the program it looks likely than of all these organizations will be banned by the court what does that mean for the future of the anti-corruption foundation and the future of the vollies other organizations this president that level of pressure on our organization our supporters but this is not the 1st instance of pressure we

have been approaching on pressure from the authorities for the last 10 years we are making precaution that would have disbanded our regional network activity. and will likely have to disband the un to corruption a foundation but our people our supporters our employer they're not going anywhere as well as the fence the if the defection of russian people with which in the government is not going anywhere so it is it will continue in some other for will obviously not become safer for the supporters of deval needs work if the court indeed labels these organizations to be extremists how worried are you about these people and their future safety. we have a and there is a sense of about 200 people working throughout. you know on full time

basis if you senior people like myself several years ago but if you. manage to move outside of frustrating recent months i think the majority of people will stay and you know if there is danger we'll will make all efforts to make sure they have a majority of them will continue being in russia how big would you say the support is still for and of all these organizations among the russian people there are several measures that let you judge that i wouldn't believe the paul because people are really afraid to speak up their minds given all the pressure and information campaign from the authorities but if we look at not only he got 28 percent of fault in moscow. election the most comair in 2013 and since then

his recognition. but the larry king and the number of supporters has only grown so i think that despite the pressure and the repression of the 3rd it is. his recognition his support and the support of our nation is growing louder mirrors are called executive director of the anti-corruption foundation in london mr sharif we appreciate your time and your insights tonight thank you. the south american country chile is about to get a new constitution political independence and left wing parties looks set to dominate construction of the 1st draft after this weekend's landmark poll as the votes were counted it became clear that the conservative coalition of president sebastian pinera had knowledge cheviots aim of winning a 3rd of the seat say new constitution was

a key demand of protesters who took to the streets in 2019 in weeks of demonstrations that left several dozen people dead the vote is being called chile's most important election since its return to democracy 31 years ago this is what vignette said about the results. in these elections people have sent is a clear and strong message. to the government and also to the traditional political forces. that we are not adequately in june with the demands and hopes of the citizens a man equal of the needles. not only today indigenous people one attending just participation which is relevant in the future constitutional convention today women also one and not for the 1st time in history there will be equal representation unique in the world in the future constitutional convention

and. i want to go to my colleague benjamin alvarez gruber you happens to be from chile. let me ask you this is your home country were you surprised by this result. good evening ban thank you very much for having me it was a surprise not by the fact that the candidates supported by center right and right padi's did not got the majority and this is simply this was something something that was expected but the fact that they pulled so low and did not even achieve that one 3rd that they wanted to get in this assembly to be part of this group that will draft the constitution was quite shocking also put them and the big parts of the population on the outside looks like chileans have decided we're a clear break with the past is that what it is. it is and that's why it's considered to be the most important vote since the return off democracy and not just the break with the past but also with political parties if we look how they

voted for candidates that are supported by center left in political parties for example that were in government after the military dictatorship and they also did not poll very well so if we look at independents that achieved many seats and this is indeed an equal race so if you have candidates that don't have the support the financial support to do campaigning during this pandemic and that they made it into this convention it says a lot about how would chile and people are really not happy with the way that the government and not just the current government of president of attempting it up but also the other governments have dealt with this problem that they want to change with this new framework it sounds like there's a lot of protest voting going on here and with these independents being elected do we know what these independents what they stand for. there are several topics that you can see during the campaign so this a lot of the indigenous population also in the in the campaigns of this independent and candidate it's important to remember that this assembly of the one $155.00

members will have gender parity that's a 1st world wide and will also have 17 seats reserved for the indigenous population so with the independence we have a lot of topics when it comes to climate change when it comes to protecting the environment when it comes to changing the constitution from this that the current state that has for example the role the state has that is fraught of subsidiary when it comes to health when it comes to pension when it comes to education and those that have been demanded on the streets and let's remember how this protest started in october of 2019 massive protests demanding these changes and people in chile know that a constitution itself of course will not solve all the problems that it will set a framework for the next 4050 years to do several needed reforms in the country you know this is the beginning of something very good for the people that worked. with elise tonight on this important election thank you. well the

situation tonight. a top u.s. general is warning that if there isn't a deescalation of the conflict it could lead to greater instability across the middle east. the aftermath of israel's latest as strikes on gaza residents are left picking through the rubble that used to be their homes they say the attacks were the most firm roche's yet. i feel critical strafe here we were certainly scared especially the children we feared they would be wounded that they would die or be buried under the rubble israel says it's aiming to destroy terrorist infrastructure and is targeting militants the army later released footage it says shows strikes killing at senior palestinian militant command israel's jets also targeted an underground network of tunnels used by the militants in the early morning raid. of a residential complex in the city of ashdod hit by

a hamas rocket had masses kept up its bare arjen southern israel not all missiles are intercepted by israel's defenses as the bombs keep falling the international community is becoming increasingly alarmed and more for less the u.s. says it's working to diffuse the situation. united states remains greatly concerned by. by the violence by the escalating violence. hundreds of people killed or injured including children being pulled from the rubble we'll continue to conduct intensive diplomacy to bring this current cycle of violence to an end. but just the killing continues violence fear and remain an every day experience for these children in gaza and to find out more about the humanitarian situation i want to bring in. she's the spokeswoman of the international committee of the red cross in

gaza we appreciate you taking the time to talk with this we understand that sunday was the deadliest day since these air strikes began a week ago what can you tell us about the humanitarian situation on the ground there tonight. good evening. this extremely. it is right continuing day and night. for the. most especially for 4 children who are a father told me that his refused to go to the toilet. without a company or. is

it possible that. like these requests. that the children are growing with. only that at present what about getting humanitarian aid to the people in gaza israel allowing humanitarian corridors. for the time being the the needs are imminent imminent i mean it's a huge needs the infrastructure has been massively impacted and the health needs are extremely it great in the international committee of the of the cross we managed to help the gaza hospitals with medical items that enough to 350 seriously injured people we also support the. ridiculous and with medical i

tend and services providers of water explicitly services providers with repairs to to do repairs to get back the services to the population either to be electricity or water. there and as a has been heads hardly by by the 2nd wave a couple of weeks ago was. spokesman of the international committee of the red cross speaking with me a short time ago. d.w. news spoke today with jeremy issacharoff israel's ambassador to germany we asked him about the israeli military bombing a tower housing international media organizations in gaza over the weekend we asked him was this attack meant to silence those who report about the situation on the ground too much to the best of my knowledge no and everything i can see on television whether it's on c analogise they're all the other stations and. i don't

think there's any lack of coverage and we wouldn't do that in order to stop coverage we had very clear information about the facility is that what if being serving in terms of their intelligence capability is the cyber capabilities and also very particular equipment and i'm pretty sure that not everyone realizes the extent to which hamas again embeds itself in the civilian population in order to try and have human shields so if anyone should come to any. complaints here it should be to hamas that what they did was no less of a war crime than fighting and cheating against israeli civilians in israel there was the israeli ambassador to germany speaking with us earlier today now for some other news making headlines around the world around 3000 migrants have illegally entered spain's north african on klav say by swimming from neighboring morocco say

which is one of 2 populated spanish regions on mainland africa it's a popular arrival point for migrants hoping to start a new life in europe mean mars election last year did reflect the will of the people that according to an international monitoring group the asian network for free elections says the military was unjustified in using alleged election flaws as a reason to seize power around $800.00 people have died since the military coup which began on the 1st of. be aware at least 14 people have been killed in india after a powerful cycle brought heavy rains and storm surges to the west coast more than $200000.00 people have been evacuated the psych lone comes at a time when india is already reeling from a surge in corona virus cases. well there are signs that india's massive spike in corona virus infections may be easing a little with the number of daily new cases on the decline but the number of new

infections still drifts that of other countries the health ministry recording some 280000 cases and more than 4000 deaths in just the past 24 hours and the real figure it's thought to be much higher the international community is delivering aid to india. bureau chief. dutch town in delhi on a hot south evening this military transport plane is bringing a precious cargo to a country struggling to cope with a deadly 2nd wave of the coronavirus it is a medical oxygen generation count sent by germany being unloaded with care it's part of an international aid effort to bring relief to the city of delhi has gone through a harrowing time people have seen then loved ones literally gasping for breath as often supplies ran out. any attempt to boost oxygen supplies is hugely about.

by nightfall the plan to stick into a provision field hospital set up not far from the airport. 10000 members of the german bund dissuade medical corps came with this oxygen generation plants to india . ditch by beach the machinery's assembled german position indian and genuity within a few short days the generator is ready for use its capacity is launch for a city which is facing a desperate oxygen emergency i think it's important to help indian people in general the supply system is able to provide 400000 liters per day and it takes the surrounding area and furthers the oxygen out and this oxygen can be filled up into normal oxygen cylinders starting for 5 up to 50 liters indian style for receiving technical training on how to operate the system once the german team leaves. as of

today scientists from the defense research development organization and now fully responsible for running the plant. is studying sandstone was not planned but everyone here is aware of the importance of this project definitely off then we're going or what we call are going to be we're going to run them and. repent of the job of government good never started the ball go to have just one brought to reflect upon your cloven oh ruth good in a lot. of discipline that will reduce. a little pressure. the oxygen is pumped into a cylinder sealed and tested and then sent to work on in the field hospital with some one pass and covert patients being treated 10000 liters can be filled in less than half an hour time is of the essence as the german team prepared to leave

india was its mission accomplished its absolutely mission accomplished and it was a great honor to be here to help people here in india was just providing oxygen due to the fact that from our perspective every little counts here and those who faced india's heartbreaking oxygen shortage can only agree. they know every breath counts well it is a different story in england today with much of that country easing its coronavirus lockdown most people can now enjoy restaurants and pubs indoors visit friends and relatives outside their homes and go to the movies and the gym for the 1st time in months but there are new concerns tonight about the spread of a highly contagious variant that was 1st detected in india. it's considered almost holy ground for many in the u.k. going to the public is on a par with going to a church now all residents of england wales and scotland can visit both again.

britain relaxed a range of coronavirus restrictions on monday among the regained freedoms the ability to go to cinemas museums theaters and out galleries something that delighted not only visitors but also their hosts some it's just the sound of. space this is. as much as picturesque and. so it's really. difficult to see. britons are out in about and in a celebratory mood nationally corona virus infection writes it down and with the lockdown lifted spirits are high but there may be potential trouble on the horizon a corona virus variant 1st detected in india is causing concern in the town of bolton and the country's north officials say it appears to be more infectious than previous variants but britain's health minister matt hancock said he was somewhat

reassured by the initial data scientists was seeing. the power tree data from the university corroborates the provisional evidence from bolton hospital and the initial observational data from india that vaccines are effective against the area and this of course is reassuring but the higher transmission poses a real risk. the government has now warned that the next set of rules relaxations set for the 21st of june may have to be delayed for the time being people in britain are just enjoying whatever freedoms they can find where ever they can find them. you're watching the news here's a reminder of our top story israel has watched heavy bombardments on gaza israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says the country's military campaign is continuing its full force israel's ambassador to germany told the news that israel

contributing to the deaths of hundreds. it's of thousands a year around the world. and germany begins piloting koeppen 1000 workplace vaccinations by company doctors with a view to nationwide rollout. alone welcome to the show i'm seriously in berlin. one of the largest telecoms providers in the us is spinning off its entertainment properties and pairing that with discovery production studios it's a multibillion dollar deal likely to shift the streaming landscape here's what the deal brings together he has h.b.o. both a subscription t.v. service and a streaming service live you see the pictures there but we seem to be experiencing time goal problems as warner brothers production studios as well as cable news giant c.n.n. and discovery you can see them now has a number of proven reality t.v. format programs under networks under companies such as food network animal planet it also has its own streaming platform discovery plus so how much is the deal worth discoveries value has been estimated around $3030000000000.00 rather than 80 and

he's warner media is likely worth more than $100000000000.00 and here's what they're up against netflix is the top dog with 200 $8000000.00 subscribers followed by amazon prime with about $150000000.00 and disney plus with over $100000000.00 subscribers right now h.b.o. max has about $45000000.00 subscribers and discovery plus about $15000000.00 all right for more on this let's turn to our financial correspondent in new york yes korda yens good to see you what are shareholders of these companies making of this deal. that's clearly a huge deal in the media world and we definitely saw quite some the reaction on wall street i mean 1st of all if you look at the potential competitors like walt disney or netflix those stocks are traded lower comcast the same and initially there was a quite an uptick to the stock off discovery had to be getting of the day up by

about 10 percent a d. and t. gained 3 to 4 percent but all of that disappeared during the course of the day and actually discovery by the end they lost a good 4 percent in value and a 20 also trading lower i guess there are a lot of details that we still have to figure out was this a deal and then if you look at. for instance with. warner media they will probably pay a lower dividend to current shareholders than they have done and the possible that was probably one of the factors of why. the sentiment on wall street to turn negative during the course of the day. it's been 3 years since $18000.00 finally acquired time warner and gained all those properties that it's now giving up what went wrong with that deal. yeah and definitely it didn't really work out even if you consider that big ben a t. and t. ball paid about 85000000000 chalker said i mean i followed time warner for quite

some time even looking back to the year 2000 remember when a.o.l. was the hot company in town and bought time warner for a good $160000000000.00 and that they actually didn't really play out that well and then in 28 t. and that's when a t. and t. of bought at time warner well big then it took years for the deal to get approved and by then court cutting was already on volk in the united states and then also combining content to gether was the wires from a t.n.t. obviously didn't really quite pay out and if you look what happened to the stock price from h e n t since 2018 when they bought time warner actually the stock didn't really move that much by their competitors like verizon or t. mobile u.s. for example those stocks have gained quite

a bit so definitely that was not the best marriage that we had to in the past years between 80 and t. and warner media all right it's a rapidly shifting media landscape court in new york thank you. well there are dangerous jobs and then there are dangers at jobs including overworking a new study by the world health organization draws on 16 years of data to put the official numbers to something that most of us already knew working long hours can be bad for your health and even contribute to an early death. according to the w.h.o. 745000 people died from stroke and heart disease associated with long working hours and 2016 an unhealthy workload not only killing people but also killing them years after being exposed to a grueling schedule. way farms working thank you 5 or more hours away increased risk of. heart disease by 17
