brings us the latest on the demonstrations protest in men's skaar continue and they began on sunday following the election of the president at the moment the protests are happening across belarus not only in its capital several russian journalists had been detained by the below russian authorities and that includes 3 all for iraq to the strangers who work for the video agency in reuss now we are in the center of moscow right next to the bella 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 belarus 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
11:04 pm
seizing of power but their own police aren't supporting them you know you're human you know yesterday i was watching a broadcast of what was going on in bella roost and i was shocked by the. violence in the better russian police they were shooting people and beating them out i came to support the russian people who've been outside the belorussian embassy for a several hours already and has been pretty calm without any major disturbances meanwhile the presence of belarus look at shank all 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 what citizens are doing
11:05 pm
because the votes have been stolen has started this campaign with a brutal violation of the constitution because it's 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. what we're seeing here in moscow at the moment all something similar took place in the ukrainian capital of kiev as well meanwhile in belarus itself the protests are continuing and of course we here at r.t. will bring you up to date with any further developments. well we also spoke to a woman who claims she and her boyfriend were detained in the streets while police for seemingly just being outside. the satisfaction they have spread 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
11:06 pm
crowds just me my boyfriend and this man we complied got on the crowd and they put us in the buses as a girl i was placed alone but the guys were 1st bet 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 discussed the developing story with analysts here is what they say on the significance of the protests and butter issues but you know pictures coming out of minsk are they really 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. as for instance that you crane and that might sound protests it took a while for the violence to ramp up as this seems to started on
11:07 pm
a more violent basis it seems this time the protests have some legs to them that they have some juror ability that's not to say that. could not achieve a total crackdown if you wish but at what cost to the people in the router seeing the examples of protests around the world they're certainly taking heart from this always blaming outsiders for stoking protests now he's blaming the polish to check the british i mean he's taking a white view on who is close to be meddling in his country if anybody knows better rooster has been there as i have it's a very very charming country normally it's not known for. this is out of character is there not violent people they certainly would only protest what they would see as something of last resort. lebanon's prime minister and entire cabinet have resigned following last week's devastating explosion in beirut mass protests have
11:08 pm
been held every day since people have been demanding accountability for the 150 plus deaths and other destruction caused by the blast our correspondent 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 resigned along with his cabinet but what the protesters here are telling me is that they are not going to stop taking to the streets until the whole parliament itself designed 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
11:09 pm
policeman so far has been killed i know we're 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
11:10 pm
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 they tear gas is coming in this direction and apply 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. road based investment banker colleagues a darn 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 as it is and it's as if the government. creates an opening for you know a new manager and
11:11 pm
a new dynamic which can potentially need to weigh a more stable and acceptable framework to run or to basically be able to undertake a huge. 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 took place 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 6 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 loom on the horizon early when her

11:18 pm
a little bit we had the president of the united states come back up to the podium 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
11:19 pm
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 why. $30000000.00 pounds that's the price france is said to be demanding to its efforts to stop margaret's trying to reach the u.k. and users not $1.00 not one in downing street which is said to be drawing up plans to deploy the navy to help. reports from paris. well the clash over migrants
11:20 pm
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 that owns the number of illegal smuggled 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 reach their life's 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 promptly on the aids now that's left apparently westminster pretty scathing this shut down those proposal saying it won't hand over any will cash and less it has a hand in how the money is spent now there are also accusations that paris is trying
11:21 pm
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 so just a few days ago or 6235 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 saw real 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 predict. new
11:22 pm
appointment this is the appointment of contest dining channel right commander this is somebody who is going to be monitoring all the agencies that channel for things like illegal migration somebody 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 are talking to our french counterparts and we should find a solution using maritime assets so safely to try and return boats 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 quote he is taking up the moment the u.k. has the right and the doctor who rules to said that the asylum seekers back to france but that will end at the end of the break that transition period which will
11:23 pm
