here i slept with a sick of people in a room and it was harsh, fair. i even got white hairs and learning the german language, hit me a lot. this kid's me and great opportunity to interact with the say you want to know their story for migrant verifying and reliable information for migrant. ah ah, this is d w. news live from berlin, gleason cause it's down say that dozens of protesters have been killed in battles

with security forces. explosions and gunshots were heard over night as people fled. security forces near the city of amadi is main square. also coming up novak joke, a bench in limbo in australia. the tennis star is in a detention hotel after his visa was revoked. the government has delayed for now. his deportation for failing to meet vaccination requirements. of the u. s. marks a faithful anniversary one year since a mob stormed the capital building in washington. the u. s. is divided over what actually happened? ah, i'm sorry, kelly, welcome to the program. police and cars extends largest city al mahdi tell state media that dozens of protesters have killed in what they call an attempt to storm

administrative buildings and police stations. they now say that several police officers were also killed. kaz extends president, has reached out to neighboring russia for help. and russia is now leading an alliance of former soviet states in dispatching what they are calling peacekeeping forces. now the protests were sparked by soaring fuel prices and are now in their 5th day. ah, this eye witness footage gives some idea at the level of unrest continuing through the night in kazakhstan, looting, and an attempt to break into a local bank. after skirmishes with security forces, a rush of lead military alliance as now agreed to dispatch so called peacekeeping forces to catholic storm. after the countries president asked for help in controlling the protests. the unrest originally began over the weekend in the remote oil hub. those channels then at the price of fuel. but the unrest quickly

spread to other cities leading to a nationwide state of emergency in our marty police were deployed to curb the unrest. but tear gas and stung grenades have done little to dissuade the crowds. neither have hundreds of arrests or the imposition of a curfew and movement restrictions in several regions. cassock president cathy joe mac or kaya said he would reinstate price controls. but protest is a now calling for political change beyond the price of fuel. yes. remember in a surprise, move president took i of sacked the government and took control of the state security committee ousting, former president and longtime ruler, new assault and us of i have talk i of has lent on the military and is now called on the collective security treaty organization, a moscow based alliance of 6, former the countries for assistance which has been granted kazakhstan. so thorough

tarion government usually tolerates little real opposition. but this time the protest is angus seems to have called the authorities off guard. that's bringing journalist bruce pioneer a central asia specialist. he's following the story for for us from prague. bruce, very difficult to get information out of the country right now. we are hearing that dozens of protesters have been killed. police also saying that several officers have also been killed. what are you hearing from your sources? we know that there's actually information that are provided so, so this is really about all we know a dozens of protesters were killed over and i said a least 8 of their own police officers were killed. but you know, this is, this is only, we're only talking about almost 2. you mentioned it's hard to get through because it's not right now. the internet's down phone services are working properly. so these protests were going on in dozens of cities around alex on. and we only have

a rough idea of the death toll and the amount of people who didn't arrested in the commercial capital. what's happened and some of the other places is still unclear. come with us a little bit about the progression and the mood because of course this began as a protest movement against a rise in fuel prices. but it seems that it has tapped into some wider discontent. just walk us through the background. but yeah, you know, this has been kind of building up for several years. if i had to put it to one particular point in time, i would have to say in, in march 2019, when nurses tom, those are both of those funds 1st and, and up to that point, only president stepped down and he handed, overpowered the counting tomorrow. to the president now now there were expectations on the part of many people. and how's it on that this would be change of pivotal moment in the country and that there would be new ero, her forms. the standard of living mining might start to improve a little bit more,

and none of that is really happened. there's been protest off and on the know about the fact that opposition already been registered to participate in politics, which i have said was something that would happen. the fact that the standard or living really hadn't gone up very much if at all, in places that you know, i've made promises about paying attention to all kinds of different sectors of the energy sector. different different parts of the country. you know, and really none of that ever happened and now it's almost 3 years later. and so i think when the oil workers started to strike over the increase in the price of fuel, it just sparked, you know, a fire that went quickly encompassed all call the sun. and the question now is what happens next? because we know that the president is attributing this to terrorist forces that, that this discontent. we also know that the collective security treaty organization of russia, lead postal, the military alliance says that it will now send so called peacekeepers. and that's the term that they're using. peacekeepers to cause extent at the countries request

. how is all of this likely to go down with protesters and what do you make of the language that's being used to frame this? you know, obviously he gave up on negotiating and trying to get some kind of a peaceful compromise to this one. he switched the language of terrorists that were supposedly foreign train. it seems absurd. i've been, i've been watching fun for years and years and watching this conflict as it, as it evolved. there was never any hint of any terrorist or any other motives than to try to get the government to pay attention to the needs of the people the, the things they were chanting when they brought the child. which mean get out old man were directed another buyer but, but more broadly at the cause of government which has failed to change or make any changes since the days when another buyer ended overpower everything. just spoke of domestic domestic dissatisfaction. there was no hint that this was guided from outside the country so, but to get the c s t o to come in, he needed

a pretext. and so then he came up with a band of terrorists that were for and train. it's not going to sit well with the people because of course they know that they've had problems for years that weren't resolved and not be branded as terrorist. no, purely to provide a reason for bringing journalists, bruce premier central asia specialist. thank you so much for joining us with the view on can cause exam australia has agreed to delay the deportation of novak joke of etch that's after the tennis star put in a legal challenge against his visa rejection. joke of ich had traveled to melbourne to take part in the australian open, but he was denied entry on arrival and was detained at the airport for several hours. he has been taken to a detention hotel to await deportation. joke of it has been granted a medical exemption to take part in the grand slam tournament, but has continually refused to stay publicly if he's been vaccinated. now earlier

australian prime minister scott morrison had this to say on the matter. on the issue of mister joker beach, m rules ah, rules. and there are no special cases entry with a visa requires double vaccination or i medical exemption. i'm. 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. alice kept more on that. we are john now from melbourne by sports journalist courtney walsh. courtney. we understand that you watch the online hearing today what stood out to you. it was certainly surreal. a conclusion to 24 hours i supposed to meet him in melbourne after novick arrives around 11 pm last night. mostly procedural matters today. so basically, trying to land a framework for which the opposing parties can provide evidence for federal circuit

judge who is here in the matter. it's expedited given that, you know, as opposed to the need to assess whether he's visa status and the documentation that was used to again, that these are, is actually legitimate, which the federal government and government officials decided that the documents that i sent a not no clue he also wants to be able to play the strain i can, which begins in 10 days time by the time of his hearing on monday, which was the quickest in terms of the quickest turn around. for the hearing. you were leaning detention for 76 to 9090 hours and it will be away from the strain of beginning. it's really an extraordinary set of circumstances leading into a grand slam. and there's also a bit of a diplomatic. we have to say, tug of war going on right now between australia and serbia over this tell us about the politics of play. well, and both prime ministers will both lead is the countries have elections this year

and is certainly suggestions from the way in which the surrounding government certainly is tackled. be sure of the last 24 hours that there is some posture and applied the federal government and the state government, the local law victorian government, with balconies based have been located 20 states over the last 12 months. so. so in terms of the handling of the pandemic, the opposing party in charge that's continued in there is some, you know, some school of thought that novak despite, you know, clearly it would be preferable for him to be vaccinated or to study explanation status of the civil reasons that know that my a fan himself is a poll in this situation, not in some regards. you know, as far as when he was granted the extension, the medical exemption, the grant, which is not yet clear a lot of victorians. so he is a case of a privileged act late getting access into the country. but in because of that

privilege, because of the fact that he's such a prominent player, it's possible that in city spending, so the target of a situation where this is a stipend being made by the government in terms of you must be vaccinated to come into the country, and given that, i mean, how do you, how are you seeing the potential reputational damage here? not only for joke of it, but also for the australian open itself. it's always been leverage. says have you slam oh, or noticed that the slam on the street. no, i could not roger federer coined expression several years ago when or when each trachea in the tournament directed correct tale. his really played out on that, that tried to every women and domain in viet late and there's no didn't applies to love coming down to australia years. kevin, the european winter, having a month in the summer in melvin. but this is clearly a concern and a full as last she with applies at the quarantine for 2 weeks just to play the strolling open. that certainly wasn't that popular wise,

understandable. it was on the ground. this is another blow. i think it is clearly a date and the reputation sports journalist courtney walsh. thank you. absolute pleasure. so now head to the united states, which is marking the 1st anniversary of the storming of the capital in washington on january 6th, last year, a mob stormed the building. just as lawmakers inside began the process of declaring jell bite and the winner of the presidential election. it came after a fiery speech by president donald trump at a rally nearby alleging electoral fraud and urging people to fight like hell. did i b as in as pull reports o, long before election day, donald trump had announced that if he should lose the white horse, then only because the election was ripped. it didn't come as a surprise that thousands of tron followers gathered in washington dc. the very day

the peaceful transition of power was meant to take place. january 6 and 2021. him, 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 more 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 democracies. the findings of the investigations showed how close

a real could it or 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 us democracy? and with that now you are up to date on dw news. i'm sarah kelly at berlin after a very short break. do stay with us for d. w business. in the meantime, from all of us here at the w, thanks for watching take care and visit with with.
