moral obligation to, to speak up in think what university were also the students have gathered where one person was hurt saying on social media videos, if i don't speak up now, i will be disappointed for the rest of my life, i think that gives you a clear idea of what is happening here and also the people that have spoken to engaging. they tell me and it was really a great feeling for them to see that, you know, alone, we are powerless. but if we unite, then we can achieve something and this is really the experience at many have made them they gather together and indeed have achieved quite a bit. i just mentioning police cars passing by us, they have been arrest sir the authorities, however, the response. so far has been more hands off than one might expect. what you make of that. what i would say it's too early to say, at least in the shanghai i'm a, you know, and until the early evening a china time, one full big police bus was filled up with people who got arrested. and i mean,

in shanghai, the people did not only voice that criticism against, you know, that 0 corporate policy, but also against teasing pings rule. and i would expect re, a very, a tough, correct don't yet he and beijing, sometimes the, you know, authorities have been rub, alexa, the enforcement. and there was not so much of a backlash, but that, that could change any time i think for now. and the authorities are limited cautious. they don't want to escalate the situation any further. but as i said, really, this could, could change very fast. right? i mean, 0, one can hardly believe to ask that question. ah, but how worry should to present judging ping b about these protests? yeah, of course. that's his nightmare. i mean, he's very obsessed about social stability. he wants to repress a re critical voice. so of course, yeah, this is very some for him. i don't think it's a very great threat, but i mean, those social dynamics can changed very fast. so am, that's why i also you see all those police casio behind me. they want don't want to

have those voices heard. and a yeah, on social media, they delete everything, the sensors are working overtime. so it's really an explosive, more tier. and we have to see for the several days coming days and how it will develop. right. correspondent finding freshman in beijing. fabian, thank you so much. it is a look now at some of the other stories making use around the world. emergency workers on the italian island of east chaos. we covered the body of a child as they search for multiple people still missing after saturdays landslide . at least one other person has been confirmed killed in this light, which was caused by heavy rain venezuela's government and opposition have reached a preliminary agreement to find a way out of the country's political and economic crisis. it aims to ensure that billions of frozen government funds will be released to help fund social programs. the united states east, some all sanctions on venezuela in response. and are the latest on the

war in ukraine authority say, days of heavy shelling by russian forces have killed at least 32 people in the southern region of her son. long lines of her traffic half built up as civilians leave the area in search of safety, ukrainian forces liberated harrison just 2 weeks ago. moscow has since kept up a relentless barrage, primarily targeting power and water supplies. and ukrainian authorities have begun restoring control over areas previously occupied by russia, but now liberated when russian troops moved in many civilians, left but others state puts. now there are questions over whether they should set to be treated as collaborators. everybody needs to pitch in and re kristen, it jenko teaches geography and information technology. but right now he's hoping to patch up high school number one in cooper dance. russian missiles damaged

the buildings was a girl who was there after the occupiers left. it started to get bad her was it was not a single day without shelling linda unable and was rotten of her younger bushel. both. the shelling is russia's revenge for ukraine. taking back territory. moscow's troops occupied the school and town for half the year. schools did continue with lessons cushioning. jenko says at 1st he was able to teach as usual. but after the summer break, the occupies insisted on a russian curriculum. there are still russian text books in the classroom. yoga for the ocean, as i was, mike was for the lead time, but the lives i opened the geography textbook for 8 grade. there wasn't a real curriculum, but they gave us textbook slash about worship. i took

a look and said no on the 1st page, it said on the 21st of february 2022. the letter latimer putin signed a decree by the recognition of the so called people's republics. little of don't ask in lieu hands for so am i supposed to sit there and teach that. that was wonderful. and there been a moisture edelton city of the russians occupied could be axed on the 3rd day of the war and controlled the town for more than 6 months. daily life is difficult. there is no running water and power outages of frequent. the question of who collaborated with the russians also looms the newly installed ukrainian town administrator is clear, show them look at it, but so it went to them. if we talk about doctors, they took the hippocratic. oh, you have to help anybody who's in need that from a lot of the co would. but these people had a choice. this one of them are they could either cooperate or not. well,

most of this were a fact. there were many teachers who quit after the russians arrived. this is waffa in love with oliver ellen of those who took part in training by the russians or who received payment. sir, under the spotlight, cousin jenko is convinced he will not be charged. he was sent here by another school and carried on getting his ukrainian salary, but he does not judge his colleagues lose empathy, revolvers. loyalty. ok, just to leave the holiness to have to survive was what most of them had not received a wage since april early. they had to continue living. what was, what are some her parents to care for old people? what good morning, leaking good ukraine's secret service is investigating, and the teachers cases will come to court. difficult questions of guilt and morality will preoccupy people here for a long time to come. ah,

till woke up in canada now and a big shock in group f, where morocco has beaten belgium to nail. substitute abdul hamid seberio opened the scoring with the lightest of touches from close range on 73 minutes. morocco made the game safe. an injury time to stun belgians collection of stars and put themselves in the driving seat for qualification. i elsewhere japan lost one nail to costa rica in group e. we pick up the action around the 18th minute japan were attempting to clear the ball, but costa rica had other plans. the ball found takisha fuller, who made good with costa rica as a 1st shot on target at the world cup encounter the result keeps costa rica in it, making cred. e. very, very interesting. and only me in the studio now, is there chris harrington from d. w. sports, and before we get to japan,

just briefly, let's pick up on belgium and morocco. what you make of that. yeah, belgium, you know, consider the fake golden generation. all the superstars are under performing a major tournaments. they picked up a when it goes, canada didn't deserve it really. and are the likes of kevin to brian are just being disappointed, but you have to give credit to morocco. they fail to win a match in 2018. the african nations are starting the shy 1st synagogue. now morocco a secure the victory with that 2nd goal later in the mat. so congratulations it talking of deserved when it costs or we can just have to when. yeah, you know, it's always about see the moment taken advantage of the opportunity as it presents itself. costa rica, obviously they got slaughtered in their 1st match, the 1st team since 1958 and woke up to overturn such a deficit. and then when their 2nd match, fuller, getting it done for los t goes, and that was their 1st shuttle goal in the entire tournament. so it just goes to show you have to have that focus laser focused mentality in

a strike when the iris hot and costa rica, shirley made that group very interesting. okay. well being here and deutsch valet d, w m, berlin. of course, we're all waiting to see what happens later on today. i will. germany against spain be focused, but you think harvey flick refers to the match for spain as our final in our rightfully so. it's do or die for germany there. haunted by the ghost in 2018 will they get ejected out of the group stage, their opponent, spain, you know, i talked about how oppressive they looked against costa rica. they're firing on all cylinders their front why? very dangerous in attack. so germany don't have the best history for spain spin, i think, 1988 last time they defeated spain in a competitive fixture, uphill battle germany. they had their backs against the wall. not really much fan based support. tv ratings are down here in germany, but i suspect this match will have a bit more viewership. i'm looking forward to it, but if they're eliminated, everyone including harvey flick will be interrogated,

the entire german football association. i guess they're going to look for answers, figure out maybe we need to invest more money. who knows? but before more the players say they're focused on the action. so am i. i'm hoping for a good game. ok, chris harrington from d. w. sports. thank you. so much, thank you. it watching dw news from the len, coming up our documentary, looking at how the dated landscape has changed the face of europe. i'm monica jones . this was chris harrington from d. w. sports. thanks for watching. it's just a thought so crazy with.
