been frustrating, so many people in china. i can you tell us more about those events and are in a room k yesterday, there was a fire that broke out on the 15th floor and or room she and that was already on thursday. and the remarkable thing is that, you know, the areas under locked on for more than $100.00 days and the, you know, rescue people. it took a long time to get there. they had to fight their way through fences and, and, and also looked on barriers. and many people in that building also couldn't leave their there the fire accident was supposed to be locked. that's what some people claim. and to be honest, it's very credible. i've also been my, but myself, in a quarantine hotel where the fire exit was literally locked. you know, with an iron lock is woods, i mean, that happens here all the time. and so i probably, those deaths could have been avoidable. i've, there wouldn't have been such a strict excessive look down than the next day. a lot of people room. she went out, they, you know, protested and under really very big risk and thousands people in

a marching on the streets and that's happening everywhere in the country. the mood right now is relatively explosive. they're protests and gong, joy, even he and bait beijing in general. i mean, in many cities to people really fed up by this really excess of implementation of lockdown said, is a, again and again, causing deaths. i mean, this is not the 1st example in, in room 2 that you know, people were dying because of the side effects of luck, dance. thank you very much for that update. and best of luck to you as journalist having crash were in beijing, you can take a look now. i some other stories making news around the worlds. united states has banned the sale or import communications equipment from chinese firms while way and the regulators say they pose an unacceptable risk to national security surveillance equipment produced by several other chinese companies has also been banned. the u. s. fierce china could use such equipment to spy on it, and it's now live in taiwan,

people are voting and local elections overshadowed by tensions with china. the polls are a test of strength for ty, ones, major parties. and the results are likely to be watched closely by asian as it increases pressure on the island. china claims tie one as part of his territory in conflicts on our president. cathy, jo might talk high of has been sworn in for a 2nd term even more than 80 percent of the vote. and now the election in which international observers say, he faced no real opposition. so high of as an ally of russian president vladimir putin. but he has criticized russia war in ukraine. and russian shelling and deliberated. city of her son has killed 15 people, according to ukrainian official authorities have begun to evacuating civilians from the city, including children and hospital patients. the latest attack comes as authorities

race to repair damage to critical infrastructure destroyed by russian air strikes earlier this week. or russian president vladimir putin on friday, met with mothers of soldiers who have been killed in russia's invasion of ukraine in a stage meeting with carefully selected women from across russia, food and said that he shared their pain, that their sons had not died in vain. there has been a growing protest move enterprise russia for mothers of young men who are being forcibly recruited and sent to the front. often lacking sufficient training, weren't quite mobile. remember i asked a to is russia analyst konstantin agra about this carefully orchestrated meeting. and what put in hope to achieve well, carefully orchestrated is one way of putting it up. the actually, at least half of those 17 women that were present are either a people with basically state group minus they bureaucrats or members of the prompt kremlin movements, the dog,

essentially financed by the state to boost support for vladimir putin. so the aim is very clear to show popular support and actually the mother's support for put his policies for put his war in the cray. actually, there are doubts about whether all these women actually have their sons ah, at the front end. a definitely the fact that the only if you clips of the meeting have emerged of the very, very, a little footage. i would say also shows that this was indeed very carefully orchestrated and designed not to elicit any other feelings. bought essentially a support for the presidents and respect for his position, but he didn't say anything. it was pretty everything he said was pretty banal and sometimes actually bouldering for oh, on on insensitive, at least to one mother. he said, well,

you say lots of people die from vote go your son didn't. and this is not the kind of thing you expect probably to hear is such a meeting ah, to be soccer world cup now where the 2nd round of group matches has begun. and group a, the netherlands went up against ecuador, with both teams coming off a win in their opening matches the dutch open this flooring in the 6th minute, cody ha ha, with a strong strife from distance before the game coach knew even ha said, oh, can become a star, but ecuador proved they had also come to play. and in the 2nd half their captain. and evelyn cs. 40 tappin for a final score of $1.00 to $1.00. and that means host cut our, our out of the world's cup after they lost a $31.00 to senegal. after taking a 1st half lean senegal made it to nail through thy jaw. for the break. um and when tara reduce that deficit with guitars 1st ever world cup finals goal,

what it was bombard yang who sealed the win for cynical just minutes later got her can not now qualify from the group regardless of the result of their final game against the netherlands. and the iranian teams refusal to sing their national anthem, it was a bigger news than these or line in their 1st match. the head of their game against wales. they were singing again under pressure from the government. they won the match to it now, but the gesture highlights the risks iranians are taking to show their descent. ah, these iranian fans in the stadium wanted to seize the opportunity and draw attention to the bloody correct on, on protests happening in their home country. but their message, women, life freedom, was not welcomed by fi, fun cutter and removed, just like iranian flex, alter, to hide the symbol of the islamic republic. the team's decision

to this time sing the national anthem, albeit reluctantly. assign of the immense pressure the play asunder. and the you mediation, painful to watch for many in attendance. for others, it's a symbol of giving into a regime they don't approve of. especially since it comes just a day after their form a t med valera. valerie was arrested in iran after training session with his club full at who's a stop. there. 40 is of kurdish origin and has repeatedly criticized the oppression of women and minorities in these law, mac republic. now he's facing charges for tarnishing the reputation of the national team and spreading propaganda against the state. that mexico 41 of the more than 15000 people authorities in iran have arrested since the protest began in september . more than 300 iranians have been killed, according to human rights groups. and every day security forces attack, protest us all over the country. it has created a rift through iranian society,

that's also on display in kata outside the stadium. supporters of these law, mac republic, try to silence anti government protest us and hide them messages, turning the match itself into a sideshow. and so the iranian team managed to defeat wales on the pitch and yet disappointed many of their fence for not standing by them. and finally, when of germany's most cherished holiday traditions has returned for the 1st time since the pandemic are embarked. christmas market was officially opened by the christmas angel from the balcony of the cities cathedral. the nuremberg market, which is thought to date, back to 1628, had been cancelled for the past 2 years because of her own a virus restrictions was all no visitors to this year's market are likely to notice higher prices for mold wine and christmas handicrafts. you're watching
