let. us see the biggest black lives matter protest and weeks and major american cities but the biggest one in seattle we heard from a reporter covering that rally and it out on the receiving end of the pleas for strong. to get closer to him saying they might be peaceful i'm backing up that you can see a police officer from seattle show. start filming him and the pepper spray directly in the eyes. and in the stories that shaped the week that was the u.k. as an opposition labor party pushes for broadcast license to be revoked all london

insisted were parents moscow a security priority after report on russian influence accuses the government of taking its eye off the ball but we got reaction from londoners. be honest i don't believe. because it's just more it's all the more destruction which really go with what i just take the campaign to do you so why should they need to see it. plus fears of a 2nd wave of coronavirus hitting europe as several countries experienced a spike in cases just weeks after reopening their doors to tourists and pearl is gripped by a succession of large anti-government protests as people in the country to vent their frustration at the prime minister's handling of the current virus all amid lingering profession allegations. this is the weekly here on our t.v. welcome to our. round up of the day's news along with the headlines that shape the

week. a fresh wave of protests and unrest gripped major american cities on saturday the biggest confrontation took place in seattle police there declared iraq and made 45 arrests and unidentified device exploded next to the seattle police department's east precinct tearing a hole in the side of the building and 21 police have been injured during clashes with protesters but one officer also unleashed pepper spray on a reporter covering the situation. may. look. like oh i just got shot. right i just got shot just straight in the bow 2. we spoke to joey wiser the independent journalist you just saw him being pepper sprayed as well as 2 mexican is a bit of

a seattle resident about the protests in the city on saturday. we get to a point where the police advances on the protesters and they get closer and closer to me and i'm saying hey i'm peaceful i'm backing up and you can see a police officer from seattle. backward into a crowd of people and then i obviously drawn off so i turn myself around and try to get. start filming him and they pepper sprayed me directly and i know at that point i cannot breathe and i cannot see as an individual i am somebody who supports the protest but when i put on that jacket when i put my phone i'm there a number of independent media and i think to try and separate the 2 is difficult but i will say out there and i don't yell at the police i'm not somebody who's flipping them off and they're truly and honestly to capture what's happening for them to target me that way was really surprising i feel like maybe the police officers are torn clearly seem to be provoking with impunity they're shooting

munitions into the crowd so at this point i think we're not really sure who they're following or who they're accountable to and it's really quite scary now that they're targeting media for sure. helicopters flying all over. the middle of the premise. just. the police. officers that. gunfire erupted during a protest in downtown austin texas resulting and one death officials report it was not immediately clear at the shooting was a deliberate attack related to the ongoing protests are not though police have asked the public to avoid the area while they investigate the incident they say the

case is being treated as a homicide. meanwhile tensions are also high in the u.s. city of portland over the deployment of armed federal troops there they were sent in earlier this week by president trump to call anti-racism protests on sunday portland police deployed a riot in the city i thought the protesters breached a fence surrounding the city's federal courthouse. right now i'm out. and it's all your house i'm ok. we're burning right now. it's probably about 200 people in your you know they

also know about me but they're all going. anywhere near me. and they. think you're going to. stand or sitting together. more than a dozen u.s. mayors most of them democrats have voiced alarm over the federal crackdown president trump said that more troops would be sent to u.s. cities i think in their own way they want us to go in they'll be a time where they're going to want us to go in full blast but right now we're sending extra people to help i've been very clear not happening in chicago we don't need federal troops when i spoke with director of the department of homeland security last week i told him to go home and to take his federal troops with him and if we see any steps out of line particularly with v.h.s. or border patrol we're not going to hesitate to take the president to court and

stop any unconstitutional actions i cannot believe i have to say that to the president of the united states i know that oregonians are outraged americans should be appalled meanwhile the ongoing protests have affected portland shop owners the stores in the area vandalized and looted one of the targets was a jewelry store that's been operating in the area for over 30 years and may looters broke into the process and sold numerous items the owner says clients are afraid to go downtown because of the ongoing protests she spoke to r.t. about the situation. and not only ones many businesses in downtown portland are hurt it's not the portland we know it's not the city that we've been doing business in for over 30 years it's just boarded up streets. you know lot of graffiti just destruction everywhere and we're very disappointed with the studio officials i

don't consider what they're doing is due to ship when you feel businesses like that when your city looks like a war zone failed leadership and we're very disappointed we're very angry and at this time we just don't know what the future of downtown portland will look like when you allow lawlessness when you allow looting and we don't hold people accountable this stuff is going to continue and if their leadership field that business is the residence of downtown portland big time and ask why this is happening there is no accountability being held right now against looters. the u.k. government claims it has recognized the threat posed by russia for a long time and considers moscow a security priority it also says it has a 30 year strategy for dealing with the kremlin was once response to a report on alleged russian meddling and british politics were to released on tuesday and accuses the u.k. of failing to take the threat seriously. who is protecting the british public from

interference in our democratic process. shall we found no one is be u.k. government tributes to bowl because of its focus on the counter terrorism we found the defense of the u.k. democratic process is a hot potato the government had badly underestimated the response required to the russian threat and is still playing catch up yet rage isn't that there was interference the outrage is that no one wanted to know if there was what is the worst example you can get of the russian interference well that's the question which we want to have unsub the british prime minister is reportedly planning to boost funding for the security services and introduce a new espionage act in response to the russian report that documents publication was delayed by the government for a year and a half before it was finally released on tuesday artie's daniel hawkins looks at

what's inside. we get a very brief summary of the long awaited russia report we can go straight to page 13 of the document the written evidence provided to us appear to suggest that h m g had not seen or saw evidence of successful interference in u.k. democratic process is seems to be enough so if you're short on time or don't want to read heavily redacted intelligence and political spiel stop watching now otherwise let's go on open source studies have pointed to the preponderance of pro breaks it all and he used tories on r.t. in sputnik and the use of bots and trolls as evidence of russian attempts to influence the process we've sought to establish whether there is secret intelligence which supported or built on these studies in response to my 5 initially provided just 6 lines of text the report's authors were seemingly surprised by the limited response of the intelligence services but not because

those agencies may have more important priorities such as protecting lives by tackling international domestic terrorism or serious crime apparently more resources are needed to keep track of social media and artie's editorial policies and coverage breaks it polarized millions with several broadcasters coming under fire but it's still russia that poses the risk and the security services that are doing their job this is about the protection of the u.k.'s democratic process and mechanism from hostile state interference which should fall to our intelligence and security agencies after all moscow has been waging influence campaigns targeting u.k. politics through digital media of wealthy individuals organizations and almost any other means the report warns the threat of russian influence is a hot potato with intelligence and other agencies shirking the responsibility of taking the lead in tackling it and reassuring the public amid widespread allegations that again the impact of such influence remains elusive. impacts of

any such attempts would be difficult if not impossible to assess and we've not sought to do so state agencies haven't looked closely enough for open source information according to the report they lacked a retrospective assessment and intelligence agencies in particular need a more important role in future the committee was struck by the relatively small proportion of work that is carried out by the agencies in relation to russia in any case should they consider other threats to be a higher priority they can always fall back on trusted russian experts to lead the way christopher steele author of the infamous anonymous golden shower dossier and contributors that the institute for state craft and integrity initiative a project founded to tackle the russian threat receiving state funding to advise the states that russia is a threat and moscow's response was swift and predictable as was the final

conclusion of the long awaited russia report showing yet again that any reproach went with the u.k. however small is still be on the horizon we got reaction on the streets of one into the claims made in the russian report. we're nation i don't believe. the position more shots are more destruction will really go in the world. than the photo was shot of russia was. just by the enemy i just think we can't get you so why should they need to be. based on the thing to do with them lately and that it would take this now way to make a list of beginning where. you know of the current she's really the politics of other people who try to influence government. in chief as part of the fallout of the report the u.k.'s opposition labor party is also pushing for artie's broadcast license to be revoked and a letter to the country's t.v.

regulator off the watchdog is supposed to be independent and immune from political pressure. i am writing to request it off calm urgently refuse artie's license in light of this report into request a meeting with you as soon as possible to discuss my concerns about the broadcaster the office of communications was created in 2003 by an act of parliament regulates britain's t.v. and radio broadcasts to promote fair competition of com blocks harmful or offensive content if there are complaints and it has not left r.t. out in the past. our investigation from the arts he failed to preserve jew impartiality in 7 news and current affairs programs between the 17th of march and 26 very pool 28 taken together these breaches represented serious and repeated failures of compliance with the rules artie's latest response to the allegations from the u.k. says that there were no misinformation or falsehoods and any of our reporting that

off com has assessed r t u k host afshin rattansi says this is a case of political interference. we now have the woods of cicadas damas shadow department of culture media and sport secretary in a private letter sent to this independent regulator saying telling the urgently i need to see you to see that do want to politically interfere with an independent regulator devastated the fact that sic. seems obsessed by wanting to destroy a free press in britain puts the british labor party in in the spotlight because that would have implications for a free press in this country for article 19 of the united nations charter human rights charter it would have implications for the human rights act and presumably just as when he was banned for a defend media freedom summit here he would get help from amnesty international

index on censorship obviously because stammers crossed the line here he is attempting perhaps to interfere with an independent. independent media regulator politically. still had a role in the grip of protests with people there expressing their discontent over the handling of the pandemic at all amid corruption allegations against the prime minister. and about.

you can't be both with yeah you like.

welcome back discontent with the current administration in israel is high a massive nationwide demonstration swept the country with thousands of people taking to the streets to voice their frustration with the israeli prime minister over 5000 demonstrators reportedly gathered in front of benjamin netanyahu it's residents there have been growing protests in recent weeks marred by violent clashes saturday night was no exception. let's look at what exactly is causing the anger protestors feel the government

didn't get to grips with the coronavirus and they are particularly angry with a return of some lockdown measures due to infection spikes they also say the prime minister and his cabinet failed to manage the economic fallout of the pandemic on top of all of that there is simmering anger over corruption charges against netanyahu the prime minister's trial resumes next year with witness testimonies he's accused of fraud breach of trust and accepting bribes and yahoo though is more focused on the protesters. to get them to not drag the state into anarchy violence vandalism and the spreading of disease through terrible sanitary practices like you're an aging in the street do not be dragged into attacking police officers they're doing their job. at least 12 people are reported to have been arrested amid the unrest on saturday and local media says that supporters of the pm clash with the anti-government protesters political analyst michel barrack and former advisor to the president's office jason perlow and share their thoughts on the current

tensions. there was functioning and everything did seem under control until everything was back we celebrated too soon here and that's when you know for all the good work that he did in the 1st wave really wasn't there the 2nd time around a large group of protesters are protesting that the prime minister is. in the midst of a fraud trial and he should resign protesters that really are problematic for those that are out of work those that are from industries which are not picking up the tourism industry the entertainment industry there are people that are just out of work and economically are suffering so he needs to answer those people he's going to have to come out with one of our real economic plan that is going to put israel back to a strong economy as we move through different stages both politically because we had a new government sworn in and in terms of the pandemic itself with new numbers emerge there's been a sort of imbalance between those 2 things and there's a genuine feeling on the street that we could be doing things differently and we

could be doing things better now we have a working government there's a stronger position on a stronger position will voice its checks and balances on the new prime minister and on his government's policies and that's expressed on the streets as well it's pretty much part and parcel of the democratic debate around how to handle both the economic sides of the pandemic and the medical side as well. the world health organization is sounding the alarm over coronavirus trends in europe calling them worrying it's fear these could spiral into major outbreaks as comes as spain belgium and france the spikes and reported cases of coping 19 several european countries have now moved to making people mandatory in all public spaces with more on the fears of a european 2nd wave years artie's peter all for. the summer sun has encouraged a return to normal in europe when it comes to covert 19 but ask coronavirus restrictions of being lifted or loosened the world health organization is warning

about a potential spike in the virus with eastern europe and the polk and is deemed to be particularly at risk. we still have some worrying trends in southern europe in the balkans so we're not out of the woods just yet in the european environment it requires sustained vigilance just 2 months ago montenegro was declaring itself corona free not anymore it seems 2000 cases of the virus have seen social distancing and lock down measures reintroduced but. you may be forgiven for thinking that western europe could force off the worst the pandemic count to offer but there's also being spikes there as well in spain for example the number of new infections has tripled recently. you know this when measures have been relaxed is where outbreaks happen is not only family reunions or other types of

gatherings where we've had a good number of new outbreaks but also in places where there's been evening entertainment they have also generated some new outbreaks some countries are already reimposing measures in belgium which was ravaged by the 1st wave of the virus pressure is being placed upon their health care system local mayors will be given powers to impose lock downs and curfews in the areas hardest hit we think that this is not really the time to have phase 5. there will be reinforcements taken to counter this part of the coronavirus instead. germany has been very successful in keeping cases low but this time of year is the peak time for holidays and unfortunately mingling with strangers when traveling. it is a very good way to spread this virus then that's the differences in the precautions taken from country to country here in berlin it's strictly for bolton to write

public transport without a mosque while in no way it's optional but there is nothing stopping me popping off to all slow for a few days taking in the sights of the taiga city by tram and bringing cove it back to germany europe like everywhere else is desperate to get back to normality not least of all for economic reasons but steps taken to quickly can end up being steps taken backwards that comb with tragic consequences coronavirus today is no less infectious and no less deadly than it was a few months back it would have political but mostly only in europe is more concerned with the economy in the health of its citizens and people the relaxation of the self isolation regime happened too early we do not know much about this virus but it spreads extremely quickly now there have been repeated outbreaks of the virus in many places in spain in terms of the rate of infection the country's

approaching the figure of a 1000 people a day due to summer vacations that there are not enough doctors and nurses we need to act quickly in order to find the source of infections and try to immediately isolate and quarantine the people who are nearby in europe borders have been practically opened some places are being visited by tourists i don't think that the control over visitors is very strict if europe does not act together then frankly it will be difficult at the beginning of the epidemic the government made the wrong decisions by the end of february a quarantine should have been already declared but this is in the past today it is a global problem i see that infections are not only occurring in spain the balkans will be a big source of increased coronavirus and. sections in europe. some people are more prone to cover $1000.00 than others and need to take additional precautions but rather than getting down about that one couple in rio de janeiro

also an opportunity to have a bit of fun all while also indulging a lifelong fascination with space travel pick it is. it worth. it. to make. it. to 5966 part of the code good risk group finding corn teen at home i got really anxious feeling that i had to go out and do things but could not see the infection rate was really high hey that. was what you report on t.v. i saw an interview with a doctor he went for more than 40 days without seeing his family because he was in the cosy task force getting created dinosaur costume to visit his family he was very touching so i thought about doing something similar to go out.
