ah, i'm gather as well come to the program police in kazakhstan, so largest city on marty. tell state media that dozens of protesters have been killed in what they call an attempt to storm administrative buildings and police stations. explosions and apparent gunshots were also heard in the city's main square, where reporters say hundreds had gathered to protest against the government. kazakstan president has asked for help, and russia will lead an alliance of former soviet states in dispatching what they call peacekeeping forces to help quell the unrest. 3 protest we're triggered by surging fuel prices. night falls, and they unrest in almighty intensifies further. what began as a protest against fuel prices has quickly spiraled out of control. local media reports that several security personnel have died. while flights in and out of

pharmacy have been cancelled. the president has confirmed that protest is stormed the airport earlier on wednesday. the protests originally began over the weekend in the remote oil hub of gentlemen, but after the government announced an end to price caps on fuel, the unrest quickly spread to other cities. now a nation wide state of emergency is in place. in al massey police have been deployed to curb the unrest, but t a guests and stone grenades have done little to dissuade the crowds. neither have hundreds of arrests, nor the imposition of a curfew and movement restrictions in several regions. cassock president costume jamal took, i have said he would reinstate price controls, but by now processes are calling for political change. be owned the price of fuel costs. in a surprise, move just president. a tie of also sacked the government and took control of the

state security committee asking former president and long time ruler, no sultan neza by if now with to chi of solely at the helm. he has cold in the military and he says, no matter what, he will stay in the capitol or the mclaughlin as the head of state and from today. yeah, the president of the security council last year, i intend to act as tunnel as possible. oscar extends authoritarian government usually tolerates little real opposition. but this time the protest this anger seems to have the authority of god. but on him and i was journalist bruce pannier, central is asia specialist is following the story for us from prague. bruce, the internet has been shut down in kazakhstan. now, what is the latest that you're hearing from your sources on the ground? them? well, there seem to be some partial restoration of the internet, but last night,

late late. i don't know if they tried to block it out again. you know, you mentioned that russia agreed that they were going to send some troops over there to help out. and there's, there is a, what they're calling in context on a counter terrorism operation underway and all my t at the moment. so i'm sure that the internet is down and all my see. and there's probably a block out and some of the other, other nearby regions to some of the big cities as well. so it's, it's been hard to get information for days out there. and so they come to the point, get to the point where they think they've restored order. normally i would imagine will be very difficult to connect. well, the size of the protests, it does come as a surprise, really, how could a small uprise against fuel prices get this serious? what's the background to all this? well, there's been, some are intentions out there for quite some time. i mean, there's a huge disparity wealth in that country. people connected to the former president,

nurses or family members have been very well. i mean, some of them are billionaires, they own luxurious properties in europe, for instance, in the middle east. you know, where is that the average person is getting by on, you know, couple $100.00 a month and some, in some cases, even less than that. so there's, there's been problems with social benefits over the years working conditions. you know, so there's really a whole whole full of problems that have been that have come up in the last 2 years and, and, you know, the still price hike just was the catalyst. you know, the set off the, all you have for everyone to vent their frustrations for many, many years. you know, and i should mention also of course, that came up their nose or by resigned in march 2019. there were expectations on the part of many people that this was going to be a new era cost on, but you know, it never, never materialized. the government continue to operate exactly as it did. there were no opposition parties registered, no rule reforms were implemented in the country. you know, so,

so people just like to say got frustrated that up for nearly 3 years really nothing had changed except the who was the president of the country. well, the so called collective security treaty organization will send peacekeepers now to because i've done this at the company's request, does that mean that russian troops will crack down on the protesters? but it's interesting crackdown might not be exactly the right word because it forces seem to be already working. and i want to make clear to that as far as i've been able to tell, this is only happening in a very big country. now, you know, so, but you know, the appearance of rush and force on the streets of all what he will bring that horrible memories in the soviet here without a doubt. but it might be enough to restore, help restore in that area. but there's a lot of problems are going to pay for this in the future. you know, people in cars, some will not be happy to try to resort calling in, you know, the c s t o to help him out. you know, and he's, he's framed this late all the sudden last night as being the work of

a band of terrorists who were trained outside the country. and it was absolutely no evidence that that's the case. this appears to be purely a popular uprising. you know, it is sort of ridiculous. if you look at the picture, some of these protesters or oil workers, you know, women, people like that. how these got to be a band of terrorists who are trained outside the country. i have no idea, but he used that as the free text to call in the c s. you know, he's going to pay a price for that for, you know, the days, months, years to come. probably journalist bruce, plenty of that. thank you very much. thank you. novak joke of it miss, challenging his to petition from australia in court. the world number one tennis player had his entry fees, a revoked on arrival at melbourne at port where he had to travel to take part in the australian open tournament joke, which was detained at the airport for several hours. he was then taken to a detention hotel to wait before taishan for failing to meet pandemic requirements

. brokovich has been granted a medical exemption to take part in the grand slam tournament. bought has continually refused to say publicly if he's been vaccinated on or early australian prime minister scott morrison had this to say about the matter on the issue of mr. jock of the rules ah, rules and there are no special cases. entry with a visa requires double vaccination or i medical exemption. i'm advised that such an exemption was not in place. and as a result, he is subject to the same rule as any one else. john now by tennis, come to the steve pierce and melvin steve talk of it is launching a court to action to overturn the deportation or do we know where he is right now? yes, we do and get had a research. he's in

a hotel and coulson which is about to kill him up to kilometers outside of the city of melbourne. hold up there. now these, these court proceedings the talk that in the federal court, their online proceeding. so there's no, no people wandering around the streets. there's no face to face hearings being held at the moment. so initially there was an initial hearing, a few hours ago. it was adjourned by the judge on the basis that he hadn't actually seen the application yet. the job is to challenge this decision, so he's adjourned the court hearing until 6 pm tonight, melbourne time. and it's a little before 10 past 5 here. so things should get back on to why within the hour . but whether there's any sort of a decision tonight or insert decision, it's unclear, the judge did indicate that it was possible to have a full hearing on monday and tennis astray. leah, as indicated that it needs to know by tuesday, where the joker is playing. so is

a bit to run. yeah. we are the prime minister. say there are no special rules for nova joke of it, but it seems this wasn't the case when he got his exemption. granted. is this a political move? well, it's very difficult to judge as to what the motives were behind getting the exemption in the 1st place. you'd remember that that was some independent panels, as we were advised, put together by the victorian government and tennis to strike the medical professionals who decided on the veracity of what job which put forward for medical exemption. i think to your other point, there's no question. it has become political, the victorian government at the state run government here in melbourne, and the federal government. i stop in the capital in cambra, have an uneasy and uncomfortable relationship and often on matters of national security. federal government is pretty, came to exercise its power. now how far they've got involved with this off to know that can self announced he was coming to australia and said that whole frenzy of

activity we saw yesterday. that's unclear. but certainly the federal government made it very clear that runs the borders and each will decide whether people get entry to australia or not regardless of exemptions in line tournaments. well, if he in the in does get to play. what do you think this whole debacle? does for his preparation it's no good. and if he gets to buy that, yeah, it's hard to know is it's got the are the why it way. it's not good for his preparation. no doubt. i mean, he's in a hotel, he'd much rather be relaxing in the best of circumstances, maybe having a like it. interestingly, the judge did say, if this is going to take a couple of days, does mr. joker have access to tennis courts where he can practice so there is still let it play, but yeah, it's not going to do his presentation any good at all. but if anyone could turn it around, you would have to say it would be an open radio. a. thank you,

steve. now let's take a look at some of the other stories making headlines today. north korea says it has launched a hypersonic missile in the 1st major weapons test this year from young said it hit a target 700 kilometers away. hypersonic missiles fly up more than 5 times the speed of sound. south korean president, moon j in said the launch could create further tension in the region and called on the north to engage in talks. number one in indonesia, 3 people have been killed or nearly 30000 displaced after flat floods hit the north of the country in the district of north arset, more than 11000 homes were submerged by the floods that followed heavy rain. on monday, the italian government has approved measures to make coven 19 vaccines mandatory for everyone over the age of 50. italy is struggling with record high levels of new infections. it was the 1st european company to be hit by the pandemic,

and has won the highest overall death tolls. elise 13 people including 7 children, have been killed in a fire. the u. s. city of philadelphia smoke detectors. fail to go off in the 3 story building. it is owned by the cities public housing authority, fire fire to say they're investigating the cause of the blaze. to the united states now, which is mocking the 1st anniversary of the storming of the capital in washington. on january 6, last year, a mob stormed the building, just as lawmakers inside began the process of declaring joe biden, the winner of the presidential election. this came after a fiery speech by president donald trump at rally nearby alleging electoral fraud and urging people to march to the capital in his words, fight like hell. the w's eaters pull reports. o, long before election day,

donald trump had announced that if he should lose the white house, then only because the election was ripped. it didn't come as a surprise that thousands of tron followers gathered in washington d. c. the very day the peaceful transition of power was meant to take place. january 6 and 2021. in there he is in the very i had been at the mall for hours to report for the dublin hughes and could physically feel how the mood changed during the speech of donald trump. the protests so far had been intense, but with every sentence donald trump spoke, it got more and more aggressive. our country has had enough. we will not take it any more and that's what this is all about. no one was prepared for what happened then. neither police nor politicians,

the images of trump supporters storming the capital of the united states shocked the world and left deep marks in this country which claims to be one of the oldest democracy. the findings of the investigations showed how close a real could it up was this cold january afternoon one year later, the u. s. seems to be even more polarized dent radicalized. law enforcement might be better prepared for future attacks on the capital. but what about? yes, democracy. well, for more on this, as for an idea of is emily gord, dean, who was in d. c. last year. you witnessed these rights 1st and just briefly of the way exactly, were you when it happened? so we were standing near my colleague and our gosh, empty manascale was standing right by the, the washington monument. and, and we were just sort of roaming around and trying to get my day of it was a demo, right? that was, it was a trump rally. exactly. so it started as a, as a protest,

her and station you could hear a bond, trump talking in the background because he had a big stave set up. i'm just in front of the white house and people were scattered all over. this is a very, very big crowd, and we were sort of by the washington monument trying to get in touch with people, ask them, why are you here? what's your motivation? so what happened then? them both started walking. yes. so, um, basically what happened. it was all very, i would say it was a peaceful atmosphere at 1st at mann and as, as the time and harness more as more. and as tom was talking and he was encouraging people to, to march towards the capital that some people started to walk. so then the whole crowd moved towards the capital and you with them you? yes, we were walking with them. and i'm trying to figure out, you know, where is this or going?

where it was, it was a bit difficult to the sun. is this going to town or not? is there any specific moments that stands out for you when you look back to this? yes, i think one of the things that we used and that to me is when we were talking to one man from texas and, and he was talking about, you know, his motivation to be here. and he was talking about how long for him. there was a lot of corruption going on and that there was a need to clear a lot of crop politicians out. and when asked how he would accomplish that, he refer back to his 2nd amendment meeting his right to bear arms. and i'm want you gathered was this sort of thing that he felt legitimize to, to protect his country. because that was one of the main things here. right? that said, sort of widespread that sent him a new user feeling. absolutely. that was me to protect the country, to protect the democracy. and it was very emotional support when we were talking to them, had tears in my eyes and i, it was a,

it really felt on that they believed the election happens. dawn from them. and of course, if you look at the, the speech that chuck gave that reflected that, that kind of almost encourage the schooling. so there will be a lot of political commemorations today. of course, what does this day general 6 mean to the people? all i mean, it means different things to different people, rights and for, for those who still support trump and for the, for them this is the day do or where, you know, there are situations fail them and fur, fur people who didn't match a town. and this is a day on that is scary. you know, a lot of people are still, we're still in disbelief that this was even able to happen. so it's remains a very scary memory. and i think for a lot of people, it was important to say that people who entered the captain and i held accountable

. emily gordon. thank you very much. we stay in the us where the top infectious disease expert until the 14th is warning against complacency about the army chron variant of the corona virus. pharmacy said the record number of daily case is now being recorded could overwhelm the countries health care system on the chrome is rapidly spreading. the us and this surge is also fueling a rise in the hospitalization of young children in texas as largest children's hospital. grayson was struggling to breathe. he's just 4 months old and has contracted kobe 19 if this release game. so i just hump day, you know, he's able to get better go. his mother. gov yell thinks that the youngest of her 3 children was infected at

a family christmas gathering way i will talk to him in like a little maybe really, i think to him like a thing like he likes he. grayson is only one of some 70 children currently being treated here for coven 19 chart, though. in the past 2 weeks, cobit admissions have quadrupled here. most of the children are unvaccinated. that bar for resilience. just keep moving. you think that? i don't know how we could do this again and then we keep doing it again. they don't have much of a choice. coban 90 numbers continue to rise and not just in texas. nationwide, some 1000000 new infections, worry ported over a 24 hour period. more than 95 percent are being attributed to the omicron varied growing numbers of americans are critical of president jo biden's response. a shortage of testing capacity is just one of the problems confronting the white house. if you're vaccinated and boosted,

you are highly protect it. and i'll be concerned about i'm a crown, but don't be alarmed. but more and more vaccinated americans are worried and are calling for schools to be closed at least until the latest wave has passed. but new york's new mayor opposes that idea. we can't continue to stop our children from developing socially and academically in a support that they need. so we have to learn how to live with, call it a liberal call, would cope with a safe way staff at the texas childrens hospital say they expect the situation to become even more critical in the coming weeks. even if oma crime usually results in less severe cases than previous variance. the problem is that with so many children and adults infected, even if the percent percent hospitalization rate is lower,

we're still could see more children hospitalized over a very short period of time. so that's certainly puts a strain on our health care resources. healthcare workers are hoping biologists are right when they say, all mcclellan will pass its peak by the end of the month. and there are other developments in the pandemic. let's have a quick look. india as recorded. it's 1st official death from the on the chron variant. infections in india have doubled over the last 4 days. and curfews have been introduced in deleon, mom by royal caribbean. and norwegian cruise lines have announced that they will cancel all crew settings as fears of co cobra virus related infections rising. and this year's grammy awards ceremony is scheduled to take place at the end of the month as been postponed indefinitely because of the rapid spread of the virus. now a christmas may be a distant memory for many christians by now. the holiday season is far from over. in russia,
