u.s. . for more on what we know at this stage caleb. indeed it appears that austin east magnet high school located in knoxville tennessee has been the site of a shooting multiple people have suffered gunshot wounds the number is not yet released we do not know how many people have been hit there is no report yet of any deaths apparently one of the people who was injured by a gunshot wound was a police officer from the knoxville police department now we understand multiple law enforcement agencies are on the scene and that the situation at this point is considered active now students who have been were not involved in the incident were not hit or were not in any way involved have been released to their families and they really unification site has been set up on a local baseball field for families to reunite with the high school students and to

meet their family members in light of what's been happening and from what we understand at this time students are trickling out of the school to this baseball field site to reunify with their family members we're hoping more details will soon be available not clear if there were any deaths yet not even clear the number of people hit by gunshot wounds and the situation is considered active people are being urged to avoid that area at this time. soon as we know just any significant detail as developments on the program we will of course bring it to you kill it thanks very much for that. it's another headline stories today italian restaurant owners they are demanding an exit from the covert lock done saying they can no longer afford to stay closed clashes broke out on protests in rome and.

the clashes also erupted last week in the capital with one police officer injured italy has eased covert restrictions in most regions after an easter lock done but restaurants will remain closed at least until the end of april only delivering services are permitted. well in neighboring austria from there tough for strictures also extended amid soaring cold cases a severe vaccine shortage but chancellor sebastian curtseys not program will not be getting a turbo boost from a deal with russia to buy a 1000000 doses of the sputnik 3 shot and last week he urged the european regulator to act faster on approving the job. the sputnik people have to queue up to ask for

sport to be it's a question of how long this approval process will last and for what reasons it's being protected i get the feeling that some are acting politically here and i believe that when it comes to vaccination and public health care it should center around geo political questions but rather if a vaccine is effective and safe it should be used i personally share the opinion of the president of the doctors chamber that the more vaccines we have the higher the chance to save lives and jobs in austria and get this pandemic over and done with. will be president of the austrian doctors chamber who chancellor kurt just mentioned told us why he thinks the country needs the sputnik shot. i think all over europe. the companies are suffering and they will need more brick seen in the more rapidly we need to do this in order to overcome the pandemic situation as soon as possible the main problem is that europe didn't or that enough in power

i'm we would need more work seen now in order to vaccinate the population in the short period of time and that's not possible therefore we are very thankful and grateful to russia that we are able to buy your vaccine and i hope that it will boost the vixenish you. have a situation austria let's talk about the czech republic where a new poll there has revealed almost half of those quiz say they'd be healthy to receive the sputnik the code vaccine if it's approved by local regulators it comes amid growing interest in the use of the russian job among european nations here sorry europe correspondent peter or. well the czech republic could be sent to follow hungry and start using russia's sputnik the vaccine before it gets approval from the european medicines agency the czech president the man made the

announcement he was also critical of the slow pace at which the a.m.a. approval for the sputnik v. vaccine has taken if the decision on sputnik the registration is made by our national regulator it will be enough to start using it as happened in hungary as for the european medicines agency it is very slow well new infections in the czech republic have started to relent in recent days that's following the country being gripped by a 3rd wave of the covert 19 pandemic now a recent poll showed that just under half of the czech citizens who were asked the question said that they would take the sputnik the vaccine without a.m.a. approval as long as health authorities from prague had given a green light michel the e.u. council president has also been speaking he acknowledged that there is differences between member states when it comes to the use of russia's sputnik the vaccine

there's a lot of pressure and politicians people are getting impatient they want to get vaccinated governments want to do all they can also control this insensitivity to regarding sputnik the among you member states at the back end of last weekend spawn the german health minister said that germany would be looking to secure its own deal of the sputnik v. once the european medicines agency has given it the green light germany could have to set up its own deal of course because the e.u. commission joint procurement mechanism has already said they're not going to buy sputnik v. as it stands at the moment there's also been some comment from france when it comes to that announcement from germany last week the french foreign minister saying he thought that was a bit of a p.r. stunt designed to. give confidence to the local markets here in germany of course we have an election coming up in september he thought that was a bit of politicking from yen's spawn but he also said that he wouldn't rule out taking any vaccine based on where it came from said if it's a good vaccine it's

a good vaccine but when it comes to the all important a.m.a. approval well sputnik the start of being looked at by the european medicines agency on the 5th of march we're expecting that process to run through perhaps as long as the end of may once it gets the green light of course it can then be used all across the european union. and moving on the us city of minneapolis as the cleared a state of emergency amid violent race riots following the fatal shooting of a black man by a police officer. i the man was shot in a car when he attempted to flee after being pulled over for a traffic violation the brooklyn center police chief said don't take a right died as a result of an accidental discharge by an officer he mistook her for a taser

a deadly incident provoke the flock to the local police department there was looting in the area as well as the national guard were deployed to. center is some 10 miles from minneapolis where last year the death of a black man during a police arrest led to nationwide protests there was race related on rest in california to. god. and this is the city of huntington beach where white lives matter rally had been organized online but was met by a larger group of country protesters from the block motor movement a confrontation descended into violent clashes resulting in brutal this was.

a heavy police presence as well in huntington beach with several arrests made among both rival groupings because the protesters later claimed it was a victory for. some reactions heard on the. people here. you know what life matters to them. we all want to be treated equally that's what the k.k.k. never in. they used to but they were going to. be also. in creating racism and trying to harm people of color. editorial director of the reactionary times site julio diverse believes the rallies were used as a pretext for the b.l.m. movement to push its agenda this is a some kind of a false flag because in seattle there was supposed to be

a one of these rallies that never really materialized and what didn't materialize was a large amount of counter protests i think this is something that's being set up probably by the radical marxist that are baja blast lives matter to just give them an excuse to go back out into the streets and cause problems this in this black lives matter movement just to speak on it broadly has never been about equality it's always been about black superiority we saw that last year and some of the videos there probably are a group of white people that all are frustrated at this point with the way that the media has been portraying race relations in america some of them may be extremist white supremacist and but some of them you know you can't argue with a white person being frustrated with the racial narratives in america that isn't racist at all maybe somebody who believes that black lives matter and white lives matter and all lives matter. the us state of our console bun gender

reassignment treatment for children under the age of 18 critics have branded the move trends but journalist walter hare who reversed his sex change say's it will protect young people from making dangerous mistake. i reach about 300000000 people a year and help people every day who also have regret or have a story just like mine and want to do a transition so i've worked with a lot of young people who were diagnosed by a so-called doctor telling him that they had gender dysphoria have gone and met with the children and been around with them and none of them that i've come across had gender dysphoria there was a fox diagnosis one recent young man who started on hormone therapy at 15 had his goal surgery at 18 contacted me at 19 and said he feels like a prank unstained monster in the arm that it's done is that it causes. many

things real problems for bone structure oftentimes in a natural development of the brain is interrupted what we know from sweden is that after you go through these procedures share 19 times more likely to die from suicide and you would if you didn't go through the surgery so what they're doing is really horrible it was a little bit complicated in the state the arkansas governor how to tempted to veto the bill but was immediately overruled by the state congress hutchinson the governor who's a republican argued that such measures are quote not the rule of government but do you have my veto will cool my republican colleagues across the country to resist the temptation to put the states in the middle of every decision made by parents and health care professionals the arkansas bill bones 'd doctors from providing puberty blockers or gender surgery for children walter here again things such

procedures are highly dangerous under being promoted by big pharma lobby groups and politicians. but truth is it does a great deal of harm to put children on or mon blockers or give them hormone therapy before they're 19 years old and it really should be 21 years old before they attempt to put. any hormones in a young person's body and you know big pharma has a great interest in selling hormone therapy to people who don't need it the people who make the war monger laughers the advocates you know whether it's facebook or he said there are big platforms raise money for these advocate groups and i think it's horrible what they're doing and it's really political it's not a medical thing now it's become totally political because what they're doing is not

providing medical care at all they're raising money for these activists to perform unnecessary surgeries and harm kids. as a full 6 decades since russian cosmonaut yuri gagarin achieved what many thought it was impossible by becoming the 1st man in space after a quick break our correspondent will get a taste of 0 gravity down here on earth. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe from.

tyson nation full community. are you going the right way or are you being so. direct. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. or unmaidenly shallowness. there are calls for a $911.00 style investigation into the capitol hill riots of january 6th is this an effort to seek the truth or to fabricate another massive political hoax also does nato want russia and ukraine to go to.

hello again 60 years ago russian cosmonaut yuri gagarin became the 1st human in the history of our planet to leave earth's atmosphere the flight brought him instant fame today his name his smile and his words are still proving an inspiration. yeah a book and i didn't. do it. of course that. you couldn't be there if you. ever heard about. with the extraordinary ascent to the stars yuri gagarin propelled humanity into the past all known but also a future of the all with the most human of phrases. or an expression of

excitement will that still captures a nation's today 6 decades old by your college. board yet. let's go yesterday. by how the. playback you really. think. that you.

so long on from yuri gagarin's flight the idea of space travel still fascinates so many but. microgravity at the international space station can cause dizziness headaches other on pleasant symptoms too scientists have worked hard on minimizing side effect spies simulating missions down here on earth they also use special bots to create the feel of weightlessness ortiz constantine rushkoff took the plunge. thank you. i really can't believe that this is what caused us feel when they you know float around a space station it's. it's amazing you know i was told that those who take

part in the study the actually have to spend here inside this tub from 7 to 21 days and yes that means even eating and you're emailing. dry immersion in there of a neutral water snow can be fun in the beginning and i had fun that's for sure but the pleasure as they say words are pretty quick you know there's not so much to entertain yourself with on top of that the longer you expose your body to microgravity the more negative effects kick in. in space microgravity can have a serious impact on your body causing muscles to atrophy bones to lose calcium even your internal organs and eyeballs can change shape as far as a no vision also deteriorates if you stay in space for

a long time. experiment takes place at an institute in moscow known for long term simulations of trips to space one of its trademark features is this small type compartment facility that is used to play out would be missions to moon and mars and see how crewmembers are going to act together in isolation and confinement so let me actually give you a quick tour inside. so this 1st area is a refrigerator facility and those are the actual fridges huge ones. those are used mainly for food because you have to realize that while in space no one's cooks you have to take food with you and. because of that it has to be frozen so here we

have a storage facility here it's a greenhouse this is where they have plants this room over here it's obviously a gym. well this appears to be a kitchen i guess because of the microwave and by the way look at the c.c.t.v. cameras their average where all over so let's move on ok so this is were causing an ounce or those who take part in experiments they live. so this is yeah this is the light control. yeah it's not too it's not to be through a cramped space here. yeah this is what you get when you are on a very important space assignment or do they're in an enclosed space where they can't talk to the family the deprived of communications and isolated from the

outside world they don't receive news and have no idea what's going on they can't go outside for a walk they don't know if it's day or night and their biorhythms get thrown out of sync by staying in this environment or this has a negative effect on the psychological well being you know after decades of space exploration there is still a lot of the and no and the more you research it on the ground the safer it's going to be out there in space. travel already being dealt a crippling blow by the pandemic but no it's run into even more turbulence in france lawmakers have bucked the climate activism by domestic flights between destinations that can be reached by train in less than 2 and a half hours big ramifications this the move comes as part of a major climate bill which aims for a 40 percent cut in carbon emissions by 2030 from the level seen in the 1990 s. however climate activists say the move against domestic flights isn't strict enough

they want to cover journeys of up to 4 hours by train well it is little surprise the new legislation isn't. which has already been ensuring devastating losses currently most international flights are severely restricted through to covert the french government to be a larger france last year with 4000000000 euro support the country's industry minister sais they need to find the right balance. we know that aviation is a contributor to carbon dioxide and because of climate change we must reduce emissions equally we must support our companies and not let them fall by the wayside well i spoke with aviation consultant. he thinks any effort to curb domestic flights would harm travelers especially those living far from the big cities interesting point of view that. we feel we. always we get and then don't

you manage to feel how heavy it will be when. you on the additions to their lives like us all that we suffer because they will lose hundreds of thousands of passengers and for example lots of people understand also friends on both do you want for example they don't good artists they just make good roads it's just a chance they just use their is that and the good with new york they're going to go somewhere else of course if we're not able to provide those short all flights we won't have all the long old flights it doesn't have a lot of it political benefits and it's more much more expensive train is much more expensive than plain now it is you got to have hundreds of people who get to use those train is fully booked so if you don't have a plane you can't just drive but it's not possible. before we go a brief recap of our breaking news this hour a shooting at
