demonstrators the protests erupted on sunday off the long time president alexander lukashenko claimed he'd won a landslide victory in the election the following videos contains some graphic images. but. i mostly say what do you think of it like the way that you should look if you look forward little by law you can hear gunshots along with the city wide between the protesters and the police erupt ambulances are all over the place the police have to move from one part to another trying to make sure they deter. the proudest at this level the police have not been too successful and you know what they are doing so people are going in 2003. when r.t. correspondent was arrested in minsk while covering the protests but has since been released ron paul sort of has the latest on the demonstrations. protest and mend

scar continue and they began on sunday following the election of the president at the moment the protests are happening across billers not only in its capital several russian journalists had been detained by the below russian authorities and that includes 3 all for a ruptly strangers who worked for the video agency in bella reuss now we are in the center of moscow right next to the biller russian embassy where another protest is taking place or rather a picket in solidarity with the opposition in belarus mostly young people who came here to express to rally in solidarity with the opposition in and here's what some of them had to say that we've come to support the belorussian people because at this difficult time they are not only fighting against the

seizing of power with their own police aren't supporting them. yesterday i was watching a broadcast of what was going on in pillar roosts and i was shocked by the violence and the better russian police they were shooting people and beating them out i came to support rebel russian people who'd been outside the belorussian embassy for a several hours already and has been pretty calm without any major disturbances meanwhile the president of belarus look at shango says that these have been the best elections to date and he says any kind of disturbances that happened in the country came from abroad meanwhile the opposition says that the numbers of the election are inflated and the election itself was rigged and was not fair let's have a listen to the member of the opposition right now. it's clear that this has nothing to do with normal exit polls these are just numbers of the top of someone's head the real results are exactly the opposite we support all citizens are doing because

the votes have been stolen not to this. pain with a brutal violation of the constitution because i think it is now seizing power by force he is the one who is carrying out a coup. like i said in the beginning of protests are continuing across belarus what we're seeing here in moscow at the moment or something similar took place in the ukrainian capital of kiev as well meanwhile in belarus itself there are protests are continuing and of course we here at sea we'll bring you up to date with any further developments. or spoke earlier to one woman who claims she and her boyfriend were detained in the streets by police for seemingly just being outside. at the start of spring for me and my boyfriend were out for a walk and we saw several special police unit buses and men cross the road in front of them and they suddenly stopped and told him to lay on the ground then they noticed us and said you 2 we were confused there were no other people around no

crowds just me my boyfriend and this man we complied got on the crown and they put us in the buses as a girl i was placed alone but the guys were 1st brought up and then put in a bus with 4 other people along the way were picked up more people and then they took us here another girl that they put in with me had all of her things taken she was searched and had to strip naked after that we were put in a cell with 17 other girls the room had only 4 beds there was spend the night with the lights on. and we've discussed the developing story with our lists here is what they say on the significance of the protests in bellows. when you look at the pictures coming out. they really look quite spontaneous rather disorganized not really something which is being sexually controlled and it is a surprising that they got so high and so so quickly. for instance the brain and the mind and protests it took a while for the violence to ramp up as this seems to started on

a more violent basis it seems this time the protests have some legs to them that they have some juror realty that's not to say that. could not achieve a total credit you know if you wish but at what cost the people in beirut are seeing examples of protest around the world they're certainly taking heart from this always blaming outsiders for stalking protests now he's blaming the polish the chicks the british i mean he's taking a white view on whose goal is to be meddling in his country if anybody knows better rooster that's been there it's a very very term country normally it's not known for protests this is out of character for better russians they're not violent people they certainly would only protest and what they would see is something of last resort. lebanon's prime minister and entire cabinet have resigned following last week's devastating explosion in beirut mass protests have been held every day since then people have

been demanding accountability for the $150.00 plus deaths and utter destruction caused by the blast our correspondent paula reports from the area. situation here is becoming more and more unruly behind you you see the lebanese police they've managed to push protesters all the way back from the parliament building we're now in one of the side streets but there is tear gas and we're going to move forward a little bit because rocks are being thrown in our direction by the protesters now the protesters are still out on the streets despite the fact that earlier the lebanese prime minister resigned he was signed along with his cabinet but what the protesters here are telling me is that they're not going to stop taking to the streets until the whole parliament itself resigns so it's possible that scenes like this will continue we've witnessed people being wounded again we've witnessed ambulances ferrying them to and from the scene so a lot of the same scenes unfolding as we've witnessed over the past 2 days this is violence that started on saturday night more than 700 people have been injured one

policeman so far has been killed are no we getting tear gas ok at our break for a moment while i put on my mask and we'll show you what the last few days of violence have looked like. the time. that. was. now people here are calling this a revolution i've been talking to protesters and they say that this revolution is not going to be over as i mentioned until the parliament itself resigns beirut really hasn't witnessed scenes like this in many many years we've had lots of tear

gas on the streets there but the camera man was injured at the same time the police are being accused of using excessive force and they have admitted to using both tear gas. and live bullets we're going to move forward again because the tear gas is coming in this direction and imply to some even towards us but as i say the situation in baby to a lot of anger a lot of frustration not only about the explosion at the port but also on the whole mismanagement of the government and its failure to take accountability and responsibility. base the investment bank. believes the resignations could bring positive change i think the majority of those that are for testing today like myself are angry. they are angry because obviously of the magnitude of this catastrophe and they are also angry at the magnitude of the incompetence on dealing with this. it is a necessity for the government to resign at least creates an opening for you know

a new manager and a new dynamic which can potentially lead to a a more stable and acceptable 3 way to run or to basically be able to undertake huge. with the explosion in beirut has changed many lives in the city forever one family it's only added to their heartache they were in hospital dealing with their daughter's cancer when the blast struck the father was killed. forgive me if i did anything for me to carry or if i hurt you forgive me i love you i know of you i love you i love you for 2 hours i used to tell him i love you oh you know you are you know i love you i love you these summer months have always been synonymous with joy and celebration for sue his family the birthdays of the children and husband the anniversary of their wedding all of which falls during the sonny season but this year trouble started to

with happy birthday for my son it's his birthday on the 30th of august. so. i ask sue her if she wants to take a break from the interview she refuses adamantly there's just so much she feels she didn't tell her husband enough suhas biggest concern now is her daughter processing their loss gemma seems to be protecting her mother by not sharing her feelings. she told them who was listening he heard her and i prefer can i not i'm not i'm not able to give details because they are killing me from inside me. so can you imagine herself can you

and the press conference resume this is how donald trump explained what the interruption and the secret service taking him from the podium was really about there was a shooting outside of the white house someone has been taken to the hospital i don't know the condition of the person seems that the person was was shot by secret service since then we have learned that there was an individual who was shot by law enforcement we have not yet heard from the secret service about what exactly went on but law enforcement in washington d.c. has confirmed that there is an individual who was outside the white house they were shot by law enforcement they were taken to the hospital they are in custody the person appears to be alive and details about them have not completely surfaced as of yet now people are putting this into the context of the entire situation in the united states where donald trump's opponents have gotten very loud and there have been a lot of protests in the streets there is fear coming from both democrats and republicans

the upcoming election could somehow be unfair or were illegitimate are somehow not not represent the will of the people to talk about male voting fraud there's talk about about voter registration and suppression of voters in some states and the whole country seems to be very very on edge so when the country was watching the president of the united states week he got up to the podium and then was whisked away and you can bet that many people around the country were holding their breath it was a very nervous situation but the moment everything appears to be under control we'll be getting more details about who this individual who was shot outside the white house really was. helps them to flow of margaret's. getting a warm reception that's coming up after the break. here

we talk about all those crazy problems out there and then during the summer we deal with solutions that's right so lucian's and today we're going to be talking with the nose. floor.

of the program 30000000 pounds that's the price francis said to be demanding to stop modern strong to reach the u.k. the news doesn't go well in downing street which you said to be drawing up plans to deploy the navy to help shut up their reports from paris. well the clash over migrants between the u.k. and france seems to be escalating and that comes as there has been in recent arrivals from france to the u.k. which has put the 2 countries holds the number of illegal crossings is appalling and unacceptably high the figures are shameful france and other e.u. states are safe countries genuine refugees should claim asylum they're not respond

or lights and break the law by coming to the u.k. france is apparently demanding some. pounds from the u.k. government before it says it will deal with the issue of these illegal crossings properly on the aids. that's left apparently westminster pretty scathing this shut down those proposal saying it won't hand any will cash and less it has a hand in how the money is spent now there are also accusations that paris is trying to milk the u.k. all while these number of illegal crossings are increasing day by day let's have a look at some of the figures now just a few days ago on august 6th 235 people made it across from france to the shoes of england now in 2020 so far more than 4000 people have succeeded in making that crossing that's double the number in

2019 so increase that we've seen now french patrols are trying to stop some of those migrants leaving french coastal shores and we know that the french interior minister has sort of back saying you since january its operations have stopped 5 times as many people as they did in 2019 in the same period but with the u.k. it's just north and nothing so much so you can't exactly pretty picture. new appointment this is the appointment of contest dining channel commander the somebody who is going to be monitoring all the agencies that channel for things like illegal migration somebody who should be able to sort the problem out and u.k. government is even suggested that it may have to use its maritime assets to deal with this we determined to stop this illegal reach into britain for humanitarian

reasons as much as anything else we're talking to our french counterparts and we should find a solution using maritime assets as they call it to try and return folks to france trying to prevent people from leaving france in the 1st place while talks between the 2 countries are due to continue this week but the clock he is taking up the moment the u.k. has the right and the rules to send that the asylum seekers back to front but that will end at the end of the break that transition period which will finish in december 2020 so only a few months away that's of course unless the 2 countries reach a new deal something at the moment that seems highly unlikely given that the 2 countries are not seeing eye to eye on this issue. a pandemic lockdowns a varied from country to country with some of the world's poorest facing the toughest restrictions documentary makers redfish i've been following moderates in

were also expelled from germany they were accused of having some sort of connection with the high profile murder of a georgian national that took place last year of course that was not proven and now the slovakian media is actually connecting this most recent expulsion to that murder as well crystal cutting away in just a few moments time with the top of the to give you the world's latest news updates we'll see you back then. well the pandemic no certainly no borders and islam to nationalities. has emerged we don't observe the we don't look like seeing the whole world peace to be the chief. judge of. commentary crisis
