nation. a target had suspected supporters of the far right movement that rejects the legitimacy of the current german state countries. top federal prosecutor said the alleged crew plotters intended to form a new german army and install a minor aristocrat as the countries leader. it is the biggest anti terrorism rate in germany for many years. on wednesday morning, some 3000 police raided more than a 100 properties in several german states and arrested 25 people. all of them suspected members or supporters of the so called christ vulgar movement, their goal, a crew data in germany. they wanted to overthrow democracy. the for her wrist as suspects are united by their rejection of state institutions in germany. so on an invoice various the suspects believe in conspiracy myths consisting of different narratives from the rice burger ideology as well as the queue on an ideology speaker. if you look here,

so vida cool. and need you to the network was made up of both a political and a military group, according to german authorities. they had planned to invade the german, born to stock, and use violence. germany's interior minister nancy phases said the investigations provided a glimpse into the quote abyss of a terrorist threat from that iceberg media there could to some decent tot who wouldn't agree on a day like today where there's one of the biggest raids against far rights efforts aimed at attacking our state, that polarization is on the rise and we have to defend our democracy every single day. at pseudonyms on t, v. eaton, tok ones, the devil. katy of soya for tidings. if they had succeeded, this man was to become the new head of state highland choice, a descendant of an aristocratic family from eastern germany, who still uses the symbolic title of prince heinrich. the 13th, the entrepreneur from frankfurt is said to be the ringleader. she would have been

installed as the new justice minister bigot my zak vin common, who was a member of the german parliament for the far right alternative for germany party until last year. she has since resumed working as a judge idabel in court efforts to remove her from a position because of her involvement with fall right? extremists failed earlier this year. but the court confirmed that she was released from her duties on wednesday the rice berger at far right extremist, deeply anti democratic movement. its members reject the german state under the democratic system and are prone to violence. german authorities estimate that the scene consists of some 20000 people between 2015 at mid 2017 alone. more than $10500.00 crimes are said to have been committed by so called price burger. and let's get more now from the de leon. political correspondent,

benjamin abra, escrow, who has been following this very closely for us to day benjamin, an alleged plot to overthrow the german government. how big was the real threat here? it was definitely a big threat and that's also what authority said to day this group started meeting back in november of last year. the had regular meetings and as we just heard the report, there was a political arm and there was also one in charge of weapons in charge of also getting it people from security forces from the police to go together with this plan to overthrow the government and it goes that way that they even went into bondage their barracks to see were their own soldiers. it would be base. so it's pretty concrete. the plans that they had already. and as we also saw in the report that they had individuals who would take them this positions as had of this new government or as a justice minister. so that's also something you, the authorities repeated today by say that the threat was real. and if we look back

how this investigation started, it was indeed the connection between this group of the people that were arrested in another group that wanted to kidnapped germany's health minister, a car lout abbas. so that's where this investigation started and where that ended also with all the rates and several german cities to day it detaining these $25.00 people. they will now face justice, how politicians and the authorities reacted to the news. so have been 2 reactions to one side, praising the police officers that were involved in the rates. and also the domestic intelligence is services that also conducted all the investigation over the past months. this is a pretty long process and on all the side there also showing how deep it this goes into the problems that we have seeing of the many are saying the german authorities have a blind eye on right wing extremism. one of those who reacted is german president, frankfort. our style may, who said this incident represents a new level in the extreme as threat,

something similar that governments spokes person, stephanie, he basically said that is extremely dangerous, pointing out the plans that you also mentioned, of attacking. and of this armed, sold on the bond of saga, the lower house of germany's parliament at let's talk about these accusations of turning a blind eye toward far, right extremism and the possibility and the growing threat of political violence. but more can you tell us about that? there have been some attacks in the past years that have been a murder for conservative politician for to look at another fight, right, for right extremist, that also, and it did an attack on a synagogue and what domestic intelligence services have been accused on is having a blind eye when it comes to right wing extremism, but they're focusing on islamists and also a left wing extremism. and that's something that the former joy met. interior minister hall seal for said, saying that the has been an increase of cases and they should take this more seriously. and what many are asking the government to do and asking the intelligent

service is not looking at just long people who want to commit this attack. but also when there's a structural problem, when we'll look at police officers and when we look also at the armed forces. and that's the big problem of this rice burger movement. that many of those who are in this group are in this right wing extremists group that do not accept germany. the german order in the constitution also know how to deal with weapons and have also access it to classified information. that's where many see that this of iceberg and movement is especially so dangerous in a taking this 1st. and also this rates a very, very carefully the w political correspond amendment over escrow. i think you let's take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. for rose, president pedro castillo has been detained, buying security forces, according to the national police. his detention came after he announced he would dissolve congress and install an emergency government. but the congress rejected the decree and voted to replace him with

a vice president. demonstrators opposed to castillo took to the streets. spanish officials say 28 migrants fled a plane and barcelona when it made an emergency landing. after a pregnant woman apparently pretended to go into labor, the plane had been flying from morocco to turkey. bowie say they detained, half of the migrants and 8 will be deported. back to morocco, rochester's across iran have taken to the streets again to the men regime change at the same time. workers and shopkeepers continued their strike for a 3rd day rights group say the regimes forces have killed hundreds of people. since the protest for regime change began and september after a young woman died after being held by the morality police to china. now the country has announced its most significant eating of corona virus restrictions. since the pandemic began 3 years ago. the government says and would

allow home quarantining and milder cases, and that mandatory p c r testing would be reduced. the major policy shift comes in the wake of nationwide protests, over strict covered rules and significant disruption to china's trade and economy waiting and long queues to get dusted. this been foot routine for millions of chinese people, if now finally changing in a major shift in its strict corporate policy. china has announced new relax truths . who are you? you go through with the exception of nursing homes, hospitals, child care centers and schools were plan proof of negative desert resolves at health goods and travel goals will no longer be required. people with mild symptoms are no longer required to guarantee at government facilities for travel within china, there is no need to show a negative test result and whole neighborhoods been locked down due to just one

corporate infection. that do is a thing of the bust. it's a relief or residence fed up about living under harsh roots. brazil. my main complaint is that it was so boring when i was logged down at home, all you do it to hardware. oh, our life has become less complicated now. because now we don't need to make a difficult with 19 decimals to enter office buildings. this the 1st time to go on to flood zone, thought of the frustration became visible when corporate restrictions were blamed for a deadly fire. in an apartment that lead to viet protests across china, people demanded an end to, to seattle corporate policy. and most political freedom law, unrest has largely been great by the state. but it's not only public discontent, but growing economic pressure that has pushed china to east the harshest corporate restrictions anywhere in the world. yan yan huan focuses on global health

governance and china's policies and the council on foreign relations. and i asked him earlier when he makes of the timing of this opening? well, i think the timing is very interesting because just to like, a few days ago, the government still talking about optimizing was 0 koby approach. now with all this, not meant of the new seems to make the way or lose the all this measure it basically the death of 0 hope. so the death of 0 cove it and the rise of covert 19. how do you expect infection numbers to evolve? well, according to the meeting of public health experts in china, ah, during the reopening, ah, yes, oh,

they go back to increase the co pay. some people even predicted that in the 1st viral way, we can use the 60 percent of the population. we're talking about a 40000000 people will be impacted. wow. and vaccination rates are pretty low in the country. is the chinese health care infrastructure strong enough to cope with what might be coming your way? well this is the rob mean this must be an hasty moon. why to be opening? we find that that the health care is not rate poor and they manage by the hospital. was the bad not investing much in expanding you bad beat back to make sure that the rates will be l y 88. in particular that low only 40 percent of the people

80. and we're talking about 21000000000 people actually on the back. so is this to hasty? is this all going to fast all of a sudden? well that's, i think that is the problem. if you look at those measures, but they are just talking about how to measure, but it does not point for both math. i'm proud to re, oh, you know, so we expect the local government jump on the bandwagon. relax policy. make sure that if you create a rating that the government did not want to be an impact, the be the be you or implementing 0 coping jersey. i think we'll see another tightening of restrictions what it is,

i think it well even though they want to be tied, but given that they already, for example, a bad e. c r testing they have no not going to require. busy the prove next to resolve the, the longer requiring the, the, the locked the snap down measures a no longer. wow. so the barry give because the right for them to be broke that process. i think the genie is out of the auto and we need to bear in mind that this move comes after a remarkable theories of protests and china, right. do you think people are more likely to resort to protest now given their parents success? well i think with this the, the relaxation of the recovery policy itself is a response to the social protect the be 10

days or 2 weeks ago. 4 the so the, the a p, the public opinion to act as a pre ap, the attitude to prevent further social protect the. so i expected that even to see that increase the take these, the potentially overwhelming the outcome. but i, i, i think, led by the, the math style in china, social protest, song approximately 2 weeks. i probably will not be repeated in china and global health expert young don't one. thank you so much for those insights. thank russia's invasion of ukraine has caused devastating loss of life,

but both sides have been secretive about just how many of their soldiers have died . civilian casualties are also impossible to state with any certainty or next report looks at why this is a quick warning to our viewers. this report contains images that may be disturbing to you. 9 months of fighting air strikes, artillery battles and close combat in towns across a 900 kilometer long frontline, leaving thousands dead. but how many 1000 is unknown? russia stated in september that it had lost just under 6000 troops. but the u. s. military says it's lost about a $100000.00 on the field. ukraine recently said that about 13000 of id soldiers had died in the war, but the us said it's number of casualties is also more like 100000. the us uses a variety of methods to figure out that number, including satellite footage, as well as social media, images of the battlefield. when you stated that 100000

ukranian soldiers had died of reacted with anger, saying such figures were classified and that the government would release statistics when the time was right. you later backtracked from that claim. meanwhile, the low numbers, russia has released seen, meant to reassure the public that the war is not a catastrophe. the civilian death toll another big question, the united nations most recent statistics, 7000 civilians dead. but the front line is too dangerous for observers to make a real count. many russian occupied areas like the city of mario fall, or mass graves have been photographed by satellites, may hold tens of thousands more, and russia is not letting international monitors into those areas. russia in general makes no comment on the number of civilian casualties in ukraine. earlier i

spoke to a live off table sca, an advisor to the ukraine foreign minister and asked her why the ukrainian government is being so secretive about the real number of war casualties. first of all, thank you so much for having me regarding the numbers ukrainian government a so security because that way it's not over yet. as we know from the experience of 2014 or 15 that russia can money plate for this number. so for now, we do not want to disclose the speakers, but obviously we will do it when the worries over when we and the difference between the ukranian and the russian side is that we are going to commemorate we're going to a to glorify all here. but in russia,

they're not going to be glorified for their soldiers. and the regime in russia doesn't want to disclose the speakers because it's too dangerous for them because the numbers are too high. and obviously it's not 6000 people as they say, it's much, much more and we count this in on the killed russian soldiers almost 90 out. this is officials to the 6th grade a government. so for them, they don't even take bodies from there. but, you know, so it's, it's a huge difference why we do not want to do it. and of course, this, the speakers might be very demoralizing for our people. we don't have our choice except fighting. so for now, we have to keep this period and we have to find 2. and this one,

i do want to get your take on the latest developments in the war, the strikes on russian air fields. what do you make of them? as far as i know, there is no official confirmation from from green to you. but i think that again, like it's not up to me to talk about this with the people i should or should talk about this. all right. but i do want to take a little deeper, even though you're probably not going to tell me if this is a new part of ukraine strategy and defending itself. antony blinking today emphasize that the u. s. neither encouraged nor enabled ukrainians to strike in russia. he seems to be worried about these attacks. and do you understand that what exactly worried about that right?

he's worried about strikes possibly coming out of ukraine and being launched into russian territory. i think that you clean is defending itself. and if we have a choice to destroy russian military facilities, russian weaponry, then we should do it obviously because this is the threat to us. that's what they're doing just a few days ago. i mean here, and i spent a few hours in the bomb shelter just because russia alone, you know, almost 100 miles and their targets or is mostly the infrastructure, our power plants, they want to know the price of electricity and water and the heat. and you can imagine how dangerous it is now when it's so cold outside. so it's roughly start getting civilians because they cannot win on the battlefield

. and today, russian president and said he expect this war to be when he's at a lengthy process. what is your assessment of the situation going especially into the cold winter months. as i said, we do not have other choice except fighting in and we know that it is lengthy process and in russia they called it from the very beginning, special military operation. and today we didn't call that word and i think you call this, this were this way because of, even in russia they, there prepare the people for this understanding that these losses. they cannot be losses of special military operations, special military operation, and like any military operations should have some time indicators. but here they

cannot lean and they don't have any. so they finally started meeting that this is war. and obviously if for us ukrainians, it doesn't really matter how long it take because for us it's a matter of homeless arrival. so it doesn't matter if we don't have to fight 3 months or 4 months or even a year, just because this is about our lives, it's about they want to us and destroy us here. so the of off we're seasoned advisor to the ukraine in foreign minister. we'll have to leave it there. thank you so much for your time. thank you and secretary general and tony, good terrorist has urged governments to end what he calls an orgy of destruction as a bio diversity. somebody kicks off in canada and its opening and laundry out good terrorist and warren, humanity has become a weapon of mass extinction. and that it must change course. many experts are

calling the summit a final chance to save the world species and ecosystems as we know them. the bones of an elephant poach, $45.00 rain kenya. images like these are very visible. remind me of the thread that humans post to animal and plant life. the for a station changes in land use, the climate crisis and pollution are also taking the big tall. about $1000000.00 species are currently at risk of becoming extinct due to human activity. this not only threatens to degrade ecosystems further, but also dangerous our own welfare. we depend on by davis, therefore the food we eat there, water we drink, there was pressure on the medicine we take for a span 70 percent of cancer. drugs come from by diversity on nature, the u. n by diversity conference was sent on how to protect 30 percent of land and

sea by 2030 scientists. stress that this target is needed to prevent the collapse of ecosystems and human prosperity in the future. the biggest threat is us human beings and our lives. our relationship with nature changes. the situation will continue to be touring. i'm saying so because 97 percent of the global by a diversity is degraded is the result of human action. we need to take urgent measures to protect ourselves from ourselves, experts argue, but who will cover the costs. some emerging and developing economies such as indonesia, india, brazil, south africa, entered democratic republic of congo, tend to be particularly rich in but versity. but these countries argue that they lack the resources to expand their conservation efforts. they are demanding financial support from rich nations. we don't want to see

a target which has absolutely no hope of implementation. sorry to say there is no time to lose. however, even if the cop 15 participants set an ambitious target, it can only be the beginning. none of the by the versity objectives agreed at the 2010 convention, have yet been fully implemented by the global community. and with that, you're up to day, but stick around and we'll take a little deeper after a short break. i will be back to take you through the day. hope to see you then ah, with

oh mm ah ah, this is caracas is the most dangerous slum. but at night the neighbourhood shows its real potential seen uplift, amanda greens cinema to the people, and unites them. the social initiative to during the corona pandemic, and has become an important part of the community over 3000 in
