a link to the protests that have swept the country for weeks. ah, flames illuminate the night sky on the outskirts of tear on. even prison, infamous for holding political prisoners is a blaze. dom shots from loud bangs could be heard. ali, my city, go of iranian stay, tv broadcast, images of the prisons gutted interior adherents, governor lames, the inmates for the destruction i had it. ladiva was caused by a fight between prisoners in a sewing workshop. a workshop was set up to create jobs for prisoners. at the fall, further, even prison holds many of those recently arrested for protesting. iran has been rocked by people taken to the streets, anger of the death of gina must armine, while in police custody. the government says the fire in the protest unrelated that

the place is prompted more people taking to the streets. ah, yes, i mean, he shouted demonstrators gathered on the road leading to the prison. ali khamenei these la mc republic supreme leader is a target of some demonstrators. they seem as the figure behind the deadly crackdowns on descent in the country. so far, the government's response as on little to stop protest like these floor on this i am joined by d job usa, teresa chapa, who's been following this story. she's travelled extensively to iran over the past 8 years. reporting for d w. tracy. what can you tell us about the recent events at even prison in tehran? while at the moment it's very hard to verify when say what exactly happened last night and evan prison because it's very hard to verify the videos and the eye witness reports coming out of iran at the moment. but when the fire broke out and these shouts of death to the dictator were heard, many people in tears and hoped it might have been the prisoners themselves that set

the prison on fire to escape. while others feared it was the security forces trying to kill inmates. so that's why many people into iran made their way towards have in prison, which is in the north of to run in a residential area actually to block the speeds and to make sure that not more security forces could rush to the scene or take prisoners away the other way and it was published on social media also show that you guys might have been hired in front of evan prison with family and friends of the inmates were gathering to demand their release. and many, many gunshots could be heard. so as i said, it's hard to verify all of that at the moment, especially since internet was shut down in many areas of the capital. but i guess it will take some time to find out what exactly happened and what scale last night into iran. you know, you know, the government was very quick to deny that there was any connection between what happened at the prison recently. and of course these widespread protests that we've

been seeing across iran now for days. what are you hearing? yeah, as you said, like this lag republics traditionally says it was the clashes between inmates that were convicted for other crimes. but most iranians and experts do not believe that at the moment, and voices are shared on social media of people inside of, in prison, from people who are able to talk to them. and they suggest the classes might have been and was 7, an 8 of evan prison. and these appear to be exactly the ones where the political prisoners are being held that were captured like during the last round of protests in the last couple of weeks. so students, journalists, artists, lawyers, people like that. this is with raising eyebrows. this is what the raising eyebrows there. and as i said, all of that is not verified at the moment, but it wouldn't be the 1st time in its history that the islamic republic actually kills its potential political opposition. back in 1998000 of prisoners were

killed according to human rights groups. and one of the men responsible for that was in the death coming to you, the so called one back then is now iran's president abraham racy. so i fear, there's good reason for many iranians around the world to be worried. and that's why we saw big spontaneous gatherings not only and to run, but around the world. also he and berlin in front of the foreign ministry of iranians, trying to raise attention to what's happening inside of run in evan prison at the moment. many, many thanks to you, our in house or on expert teresa trump. some other stores now making headlines round the world at this hour. protesters in tunisia, his capital tunis, have clash with police during a 2nd night of anti government demonstrations. rival political movements have joined forces against the nations long running economic crisis. the accused president, case side of attempting to turn tunisia back into a talk with c,

a very difficult situation persists in for the net, scanned lance regions to most difficult to seem a buck direction, but we hold our positions. residents say they don't have electricity. gas, all water venturing outside for supplies is dangerous. some residents say they're angry at both sides and just want the fighting to end. and i mean, we don't need one of the other. we don't need war. looks like we just wanna live at home. that dormer, we do ukrainian, and russian troops dugan across the region. the people still in back moot can do little, but hope to survive. another day of the war in russia, gunman have killed 11 people and wounded 15 others in an attack and a training side for the russian military. it happened in the countries of build gawked region which borders ukraine. the shooters open fire during

a firearms training session for volunteers preparing to be deployed to fight against ukraine. the russian defense ministry says they were nationalists from a former soviet republic without naming which one. the ministry also says the shooters were killed in the attack. some independent russian media outlets are reporting that the number of casualties is much higher than the official figures. i asked journalist petter causal off in riga to shed more light on that. as far as the situation is not enough to spur and the russian defense minister reported that there were possibly more than 10 people dead and approximately more than 10 injured . but in fact, the small, independent russian out last report the possibly could be twice war people during this incident in a russian military base. and bill go to you, spell it out to us. why?

why would, if, in fact, in the case, why would the russian russian officials try to minimize the numbers? well, this is a good question because if we look at look back in the beginning of the war since that the russian officials and russia, mr. defense, they're trying to like to cover not to to tell the real reasons and the real numbers of people, of casualty, some dead one. so this is quite a traditional strategy of russian officials and today. so they are trying to, to make it to not so loud. what have we learned about the gunman? motives? this is a good question because again, officials, they do not report any details. what has happened. so we know only from officials that something like happened on saturday morning and possibly the tech was a kid by this is a quote by the terrorist,

but the small russian media, independent outlets. just not only go reported that the possible reason was the quarrel on the religious religious base. so. so the volunteers who were training in this military base before going to create some of them. they decided they didn't want to go. and in the end, there was a quarrel and some, some of these volunteers and possibly 2 or 3 people they decided to, to attack the russian military. because of this quarrel, teacher clubs there, in rica to fall out of russia's invasion of ukraine has dominated discussions at the party congress of germany screens this weekend. the party entered the national government for the 1st time last year in that spent compromising a long held policy ideals, or political correspondent, julia shall deli reports. it was the 1st green party conference since the start of

the war in ukraine. and that showed, given that the topic was at the top of the agenda throughout the green party, nauman government also has to deal with the issue directly, has to decide how to handle rushes, aggression, and how to deal with the energy crisis. but the congress also showed that the party has moved away from its more idealistic positions of the past, and is now strongly anchored in reality. it's a party that decided to support the government's decision to extend the life of to nuclear power plants despite its history being rooted in the anti nuclear movement . it's a party that decided to support the decision to send heavy weapons to ukraine despite its longstanding policy of not sending arms to conflict areas. now these decisions weren't made without internal debate and discussion, but the party is united. it is also a new and different party. it's membership has doubled in the last 5 years. and

many of those new members are young people who are not so strictly attached to the values of the greens during their founding era. 40 years ago to china now were present in shooting ping has warned of difficult times ahead and called on his delegates to support him resolutely speaking at the communist party congress, she repeated his goal of bringing the self governing island of taiwan under chinese rule by force if necessary, she is youth. however, the resolution of the taiwan issue is a matter for the chinese people to decide. we insist on striving for the prospect of peaceful re unification with the greatest sincerity and with a greatest effort to me. however, we will never commit to abandoning the use of force and we best served the option of taking all necessary measures. the communist party is expected to hand the leader. she an unprecedented 3rd term at the congress. more than 2000 delegates are
