that have been injured some of those reportedly in quite a serious way this is up to a silver mercedes car drove into crowds who were celebrating the rolls and montage carnival event taking place in that city which is needed to castle here in germany police arrested the driver they've said that it's too early to determine what was behind this whether it was an accident or whether it was intentional we do understand that children are among those that have been injured this is an event that's attended by a lot of kids what we know from the scene is that from eyewitnesses describe the car accelerating into the crowds then members of those crowds running towards the car police to detain the driver and keep crowds away from the driver who's been described as a man aged between 20 and 30 by eyewitnesses at the scene a police spokesperson speaking from castle give fairly limited information so far

they said that whether it's a medical emergency or a technical failure or whether in the worst case it was intentional we unfortunately can't say anything about that at the moment that's the situation as we know it this. carnival event very well attended in parts of germany the roads in montauk carnival this particular one in the city has come to well quite a shocking end with at least 10 by ups as many as 30 people injured what we do know is that all 'd carnival events in the area have been called off i have never sent information we have so far thanks p. whatever's happened there so sad to see this is small for pictures but thanks for now. no elsewhere today the big day for 2 suns in london it marked the start of historic. extradition hearing which is set to decide whether or not the founder of wiki leaks to his son is handed over to the united states the whistleblower who is

currently in belmarsh prison in the u.k. is wanted in the u.s. on espionage and hacking charges and could face a sentence of up to 175 years and sound his father has said the case has far reaching implications for journalists. torch of julian as witnessed by new mills of you know the nation's ready to run. all of those records for a viable that is what will happen to journalists publishers and public. if this next edition this political exhibition julian the sun's his success hundreds of supporters of your new songs have gathered to protest outside the court with hearings taking place that demanding his release rallies have also been held in sydney australia with academics investigative journalist and human rights activists from attending next to saving saskatoon looks at how it has found himself closer than ever to extradition.

kero or enemy number one you decide either way today in the song has become a name and a face recognised all over the wild and not for the death penalty so if i'm not for the death penalty i want to do it illegally shoot the son of a. bitch. terrorist he should be treated as an enemy combatant. her 6. walks like a hostile intelligence service and talks like a hostile intelligence service by defeating the jury in the sun we just feed them or see for brights the 48 year old australian put a target on his back when he leaked a truckload of classified u.s. documents lange bad uses of power the very highest levels with the u.s. justice department hot on his heels as some sort of side him in london's ecuadorian embassy the 7 long years but full suddenly and unceremoniously being dragged

out by british police. records. a stab in the back and perhaps coincidence that aquittal is bank account had just been credited with a 4200000000 dollar learn from the i.m.f. the u.s. has huge sway so from the 4 walls of the embassy to the 4 walls of a jail cell a songe was taken to london's belmarsh prison and handed an exceptional sentence in britain by a violation seldom need to prison sentences they're generally subject only to finds . by contrast was sentenced in summary proceedings to 50 weeks in a marksman security prison clearly a disproportionate penalty that had only a single purpose holding asuncion long enough for the us to prepare the espionage

case against him he and his lawyer had just 15 minutes to prepare for the trial which itself also just lost it 15 minutes betrayed by ecuador feeling let down by the legal system a songe now claimed his fundamental human rights were under attack he was put in solitary confinement for up to 23 hours a day at the u.n. and rights groups were in disbelief and some feared for more than just his freedom we have real concerns on the evidence currently available that mr a staunch could die in prison the medical situation is there by urgent there is no time to lose against this backdrop is it surprising those suspicions swallowing around the extradition trial especially given the u.s. u.k. treaty clearly states no citizen can be extradited the political purposes which many tame at the says and while washington says this case is strictly about national security it seems queen elizabeth the 2nd didn't get the memo. i must tell

you however that there's a constitutional sovereign majesty acts on the advice of him ministers and remain strictly nonpolitical at all times this is therefore not a message in which the queen would into the if the u.k. kowtows to its allies request might be doubt not just a life sentence without parole but even the death penalty if washington decide stepped out on the charges in the future but if it finds a willing jury which apparently won't be a problem. a sound will receive a trial by jury in alexandria virginia the natori is espionage court where the u.s. tries all national security cases the choice of location is not by coincidence the cases are always tried in front of the same judge behind closed doors and on the strength of classified evidence nobody has ever been acquitted in a case like that that is a prearranged affair a show trial to make an example of julian a signage the point is to intimidate other journalists global outcry human rights

the law or the right to a fat trial turns out there all week adversaries in the face of a government who will fight tooth and nail to keep a lid on its dirty secrets. in assessed detail of their that report now the un special rapporteur on torture you just quoted tells today's going underground show that their son's case amounts to a basic battle of freedoms that actual programs are here everywhere in the world power from the u.k. you've got your own show after this news bulletin. doing the same is not a whistleblower he did not leak information it was illegal publishing he was leaked to him so u.k. authorities here they basically deciding on whether a show trial should go ahead absolutely yes i think this is not what it's it's about whether this show trial should go ahead because there's not going to be nothing else than a show trial in the u.s. there's no chance is going to get

a fair trial it's not just about 2 innocent in this is really is a battle over press freedom over the rule of law of the future i would say even of democracy. or the news the israeli defense forces have said the country south has been attacked by 6 missiles launched from gaza it comes after the defense minister said tel of eve had plans to radically resolve the longstanding crisis. we're preparing a plan to fundamentally change the situation in the gaza strip i really understand the situation of the people in the south they deserve peace and security well it certainly seems as if it is on the cards we have heard from the israel defense forces home front command that all roads all schools and the train line along the israel gaza border are closed until further notice now this follows a deadly night of the tell a tree airstrikes conducted by the israeli army on several locations in northern gaza and on the syrian capital damascus now the israeli army says that these

included sites belonging to the palestinian islamic jihad group and amongst them were weapons facilities and training sites it also says that 4 people were injured however we hearing from islamic jihad that 2 people have been killed and it has vowed to avenge those deaths the zionist aggression against damascus and the murder of 2 of our members as a result of the bombing is something that must be stopped and will not go unnoticed while this is collation comes after the american president donald trump's so-called deal of the century which was supposed to see a long lasting peace between israelis and palestinians but has been slammed as the slap of the same tree by the palestinians all of this coming just a week before israel holds its 3rd parliamentary election in a year the country is in a political deadlock now at the same time the americans have to recognize israeli sovereignty of the golan heights and also put in place plans for israeli enix ation on the west bank or all of this is being seen here by many as attempts by the

israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu to win political points. this exchange of hostilities came after israeli forces shot and killed a palestinian man from the islamic jihad group near the gaza pruitt affirms on sunday the idea then sent an armored bulldozer across to retrieve his body a lot of people upset a warning this is the video you might find upsetting to. oh. come on. young man here on. your. birthday i did. according to local media reports about that 2 other palestinians who ended by israeli life fire as they attempted to recover the body the i.d.f. claimed the man along with another alleged terrorist had been planting an explosive device near the separation barrier

a mass though which governs in the besieged gaza strip said he was an armed palestinian rights advocate is the munis told us the instant showed callous disregard for palestinian life. but what we have seen is very very degrading cruel and inhuman i think nothing can justify this regardless of the kind of people or what they have done and those who all do it all but if it treats it such as. be brought to court the army on the one hand feel that it has a green light petitions provide. political cover or just praise such incidents which amount to war crimes because if you feel that you are above the law you would be your own as many would provide you'll. cover with their legal or political then soldiers will continue to do we expect the israeli army to investigate this incident. story next by the stone in woman who says she's had

to flee here to russia to protect her daughters she's claiming asylum after her husband was acquitted of sexually abusing the children is his story. it's a bit it's my older daughter started scratching her face i would ask her why do you scratching yourself you should hurt yourself and she would reply oh mom i feel guilty about what dad did to us then we went to psychologist after several sessions she told me the girls are telling the truth about what they want to it's a classic reaction an offense or a sin has taken her 2 daughters to russia to keep them away from the norwegian father she accuses him of molesting the girls something he strongly denies according to her it started back in 2012 in norway when the girls were aged one and 2 but the us what when our younger daughter was born he offered to be their older daughter and he is something from the bathroom so iraq turn without knocking i opened the door they were not washing they were not even in the bath they were just

standing there naked and i went on to describe the horrific details of that incident who is from a star india obtained a story in passports for the girls and took them to her homeland but the husband hired a lawyer filed for custody and won the right to see the children for a week every 2 months and it was legally unable to prevent him from taking the children to norway there were by years after the 1st trips the children would come back and tell me when they'd naked with dad or where we slept naked with dad in the same bed sometimes the older one would wake up screaming for a long time i couldn't it to myself what was happening and me 2016 he once again brought the children back from a weeklong stay there i saw a very strange scene when we were saying good bye i asked my daughter whether they played like that when they are in norway and my youngest one said yes. after that on a went to the store and police and the criminal case was opened she says a gynecologist examined the girls and found evidence suggested will abuse the father was then arrested and charged on a visit to the psychologist who gave some advice on how to get the truth from her

own daughter although the cause of soviet of all the psychologist said i needed to talk to her in the home environment and when she started talking it was a nightmare. she told me that her dad tickled there that it was painful but later at the trial they queued me of teaching my children what to tell the investigators and social workers despite the girl's testimony the court said there was insufficient evidence to convict your stay in france or us and so he was acquitted he then sued his wife and in 2018 managed to win custody of the children mr finster us and denies all the allegations against him my father was accused of doing something to a 1314 year old started using it that's leverage but my father was like that and i have to be like that i'm a launched a legal appeal and turned to human rights groups for help but she was unable to overturn the ruling in january this year yourself insourcing was due to take the girls to norway so ana decides to flee to russia taking the girls with their now

being looked after while on his asylum claim is being processed. it's exactly now if you're watching the clock 17 past the hour this is out international live from moscow as corona virus cases spike outside china on the sidelines of all but moscow's in fact sickly rejecting accusations it's been waging a war like this information campaign about coronavirus tell it all on the back. what politicians do. they put themselves on the line they did accept the reject. so when you want to be president and. want. to go right to the

press this is what before 3 of the people. interested in the water. the chrono virus now has proven this point because even though the supply lines are choked and deliveries of critical parts are not happening stocks are still stable or going higher because it's. cheap money right it's all cheap money that cheap money is created out of nothing to create the simulation going.

again the number of corona virus patients located far from the deadly at the center in china has suddenly spiked it's really put emergency measures in place over the weekend with 150 reported cases and 4 deaths it is europe's 1st major outbreak while the run has the highest number of deaths outside china now with officials there raising the number to 12 really this monday but to its lead authorities they're doing all they can counseling at big popular carnival in venice also major sporting events for spoken to as entire towns and communities were put on lockdown in asia cases of infected patients surged in south korea on monday with another 161 people confirmed taking the total it's almost $800.00 now well the government so so temporarily shutting down really. just movements plus a cult whose members make up a sizeable number of the known infections meantime side from this whole thing the us is accusing russia of spreading alarm and coronavirus conspiracy theories by spreading disinformation about coronavirus russian malign actors are once again

choosing to threaten public safety by destruction from the global health response the u.s. state department claims thousands of fake social media accounts are advancing so-called russian talking points the messages apparently label it an american biological weapon being used to wage economic war on china accounts linked back to russian proxies are also being accused of undermining the global response with more on it than hawkins. it's hard to find almost any modern day referendum election or protest movement that hasn't been tied in some way by government officials intelligence reports all media outlets to russian meddling it seems virus pandemics are no exception to the rule russia's intent is to sow discord and undermine u.s. institutions and alliances from within including through coercive mind influence campaigns this miss the allegations as a deliberate smear campaign it will be hard for most of us to find out what exactly russia is accused of the answer apparently lies in the report prepared for the

state department's global engagement center strictly not for public viewing which details evidence of russia's alleged bad behavior and if one compares the charges against russia in the secretive report to what moscow has actually done you get 2 very different pictures. from. well if it's conspiracy theories u.s. officials are looking to find looking closer to home could do the job u.s. officials publicly cause doubt on official information coming out of china though some later retracted allegations that the corona virus outbreak actually came from a chinese bioweapon lab were quick to emerge stateside just

a few miles away from the 3rd market is china's only biosafety level 4 super laboratory research as human infectious diseases why it's this way about this virus guinea senior administration official told me that the united states does not have quote high confidence in the information coming out of china at this point the show has called for all sides and take extra care with trading barbs and the chinese envoy to the u.s. has warned of the damage inaccurate information can cause. the 29000 and covert outbreak and response has been accompanied by a massive info demick an overabundance of information some accurate and some not that makes it hard for people to find trustworthy sources and reliable guidance when they need it so very harmful it's very dangerous to stir up suspicion rumors and spread them among the people for service or crowd panic or fandoms. racial

discrimination as you know phobia well despite the warnings at least u.s. officials can in their own way look on the bright side of the situation and take the positives from the global panic the fact is the does give businesses there yet another thing to consider when they go through their review of their supply chain so i think it will help to accelerate the return of jobs to north america this is a wake up call for an issue that has been latent for many years but is critical to u.s. economic and national security we cannot necessarily depend another country's even close elyse to supply us with needed items from facemasks to vaccines some would say u.s. officials are doing a good job of undermining their own institutions without russia's help russia serves a very important purpose. and american politics these days rather than add a lot of thing its own problems and trying to figure out how they can know how they

arose and how to fix them americans find it much easier to blame someone else and that target is usually russia the us just the us intelligence agencies feel that they they can only benefit if they attack russian accused russia of various malign activities but i believe i don't believe russia has any any desire any interest in spreading this information about the coronavirus because. if you spread this information that causes that that allows the the disease to spread all the more rapidly and russia is vulnerable as well so why would russia want to burn down its own house. the german chances christian democrats have suffered a devastating blow in state elections in hamburg with support for the party plunging to a meager 11.2 percent the c.d.u. finished a distant 3rd place for the social democrats in greens leaving as leaders in

disarray. i will get straight to the board and not beat around the bush it is a better day for the german c.d.u. it's a historically bad election result for the c.d.u. in hamburg. with popular support for the c.d.u. slipping then german media of mockingly dubbed the party chaotic demoralized union now arguing it suffering its deepest crisis in 2 decades you know as well has been compounded too by this month's shock announcement to a lot of people that its leader and a great current was set to resign once a replacement for a once seen as angela merkel's hand-picked successor for the chancellor ship the moves that raise doubts about the political course being charted by both the party and the country as political commentator steve meissner just how dire the situation is for germany's christian democrats right now. it's looking pitch black for the c.d.u. . market is basically seems to have missed out on their exit time and the whole

game is starting to fall apart right before very eyes she's in the process of destroying the city you. would place this whole disaster basically firmly on her shoulders she's not left enough time for a successor to really move in and fill her boots and take over the place themselves again some experience and place them selves in a position to be able to fight and win an election in 2021 so she's just not left enough room for people and she's missed her exit point basically she's really missed it. one of our top stories a storage extradition hearing in london decide whether or not the founder of wiki leaks to sarge is handed over to his you know to the united states will that 1st day of his just wrapped up is going to continue through till may. it will start again tomorrow as well if you're a cheater is that. the call of god in this again how did it go. well i'll tell you kevin i can barely hear myself think behind me you can hear
