ah, yes, dickie mom in sich, she is legally a shelf ah, breaking news this our all contact has reportedly been lost with a team of rescuer sense in to a mind following up bloss in the central russian region of camera. the explosion killed at least 11 miners with more than 30 still trapped underground. also, a head start a conversation about mandatory vaccinations with the public got the controversial advice of the world health organization 2 countries. i made europe wide protests against the introduction of compulsory jobs for certain groups. french police arrest 5 people in a crock dot on human trafficking gangs a day after almost 30 migrants drawn,

trying to reach the u. k. r. as in london point the finger of blame at each other on politicians blash with eco activists in canada. after a leading green campaigner threatens not oil pipelines could be blown up if the government doesn't take action on climate change. ah, from moscow to the world, this is our t all was great of your company. my name's you know, the real, our top story at 7 p. m. in moscow on explosion. a coal mine in the central russian region of camera has killed at least 11 people. the latest media report suggest contact has been lost, with a group of rescuer, sent in to free 35 minor still believe to we trapped underground. busy wall at the latest lines just coming in to his saying that the body,

these of 3 of the rescuers have reportedly been phoned at. let's get on this from rp. saskia taylor at southgate new worrying reports there about the rescue team now going missing in action with those 3 bodies at being far. and what more do we know about what happened today in camera of? well, there is of course still lot of information coming in. this is a developing story. but on thursday, tragic can use came in from the siberian city of camera, that's in the center of russia, about a 4 hour flight from moscow to the east. now we heard that around 8 30 am local time. a coal mine exploded at a depth round 250 meters. now, like i said, the figures are constantly being updated. but at this point in time, we do know for sure that at least 11 people were killed. on top of that paramedic saves that around 40 people were taken to hospital several or in a critical condition. they are being treated primarily for smoke poisoning. now

emergency services, as you'd effect very quickly, appeared at the scene and they spent really the remainder of the day baffling, very heavy smoke trying to reach those 35 also miners who remain trapped under ground. now no communication had been made with those 35 since the morning's last. however, a bit earlier on we got was that those such rescue assets had released temporarily put on hold. because that was a very growing can son that a 2nd explosion could take place and even eminently so if we look at the timeline, those rest to register post to have come to the surface. but latest one report suggests that not only did not happen, but contact has been lost with them, they simply cannot be reached. there is also some farther, pretty tragic information unconfirmed. i have to say that 3 of those bodies have so far been found in the meantime. the risk of

a 2nd explosion remains and it's thought that apparently the levels of methane in the mine are now above the limit by 6 percent. so incredibly troubling developments here. like i said, we are still waiting for confirmation from the emergency services, but that is what we are hearing at the moment as for the cause of the blast. well, that is still to be determined, but a criminal per probe has been launched. but preliminary findings seemed to suggest that coal dust set fire in the ventilation shaft and not spread smoke throughout at the mine. as for this particular mine is what pretty long history dating back to the soviet era. in fact, the mid fifties on 14th, no stranger to similar incidents like this, that had a blast back in 1981, even more recently in 2004 as what is unfolding right now. this thursday in camera while ha, like i said, pretty trumpeting development. some unconfirmed reports that seems people are desperately trying to seek any kind of information that they can not only on the

fate of those mine as humane trapped there since morning. but also it seems on those who sent out to rescue them, and of course, is nightfall there as well, making the above ground operation even more difficult as well. sounds good, thanks for bringing the latest on that ortiz saskia taylor. the world health organization is urging countries to start a conversation about what it calls a very delicate mater of mandatory vaccinations. it comes a day after it's stark warning that europe's cobit debt tool could hit to 1000000 by next spring. there are lessons of history here when mandates have come at the expense of trust and social inclusion. so it's very delicate. we think it's time to have that conversation, both from an individual and a population based perspective. you may recall different advice not so long ago. indeed, mark to clear you turned by the w h o where they are this year, it said it did not support making jobs, compulsory stating it was best to focus on informing people and making vaccines

readily available. the latest spike in case numbers has prompted countries across europe to reimpose curbs. it's lee grease, the czech republic, bardon vaccinated people from restaurants and entertainment venues, sweden, them fronts are considering mandatory booster jobs for people over 40 and spanish regions including castle lonia or limiting movement for vaccine hesitant citizens in germany, chancellor in waiting will have shorter call for monetary code, which helps to daily case numbers, they have had a record of 74000 the death total surpassing 100000. the governments describe the situation of an emergency or europe correspondent peter oliver reports from berlin . was deep concern at the moment, and it's particularly when you look at those figures over the last 24 hours. the number of covert cases that have been reported to the robert coffins that you'd passing 75000 for the 1st time. also germany reaching

a sod milestone as 100000 all over 100000 people have now died from cove at 19 in the country. we are in a period of governmental transition here in germany at the moment, says angle americo steps down and all of sholtes looks likely to be the man that will be replacing her. now both governments have set the alarm bells ringing really when it comes to this latest wave of covert. 19 the problem is obvious. we are heading for an emergency. the likes of which we have never seen before in this country is that also the way out of this pandemic is that in institutions where especially vulnerable groups are cared for. the vaccination is made mandatory. all i've shown they're talking about the idea of introducing mandatory vaccinations in certain situations. now it is a big question here, found elsewhere about why vaccine uptake is not being as, as prevalent as in german speaking country. so basically germany and austria were

looking around 69 percent 68 percent, whereas you look elsewhere that haven't part mandatory vaccinations. i'm talking about spain, italy, portugal well over 80 percent in portugal, 98 percent. so the big question is, why haven't people in germany, austria come forward to take up these jobs now in australia, they've said that they're going to introduce mandatory vaccination for everybody from february of next year. now polls being taken of people here in germany suggests that that would be reasonably a popular idea. the idea that vaccinations were made mandatory. the thing is is that there's a really bleak picture being painted for those that don't. the job is the outgoing health minister. yes. spawn shine if you had them probably by the end of this winter. this sometimes cynically said pretty much everyone in germany will be vaccinated, recovered or dead. but it's true with a highly contagious delta. very, very, very likely. while the federal government here in berlin can settle an overarching

coven policy, the individual 16 states that make up germany, they have the power to be able to implement things as they see fit on the ground. and what that seen is a patchwork of, of methods that are being employed. if you're in states like bavaria, north ryan with the folly of button board and the rhineland, pull out and that and others. then you're pretty much bod, from public spaces. if you've not been vaccinated, can't prove that you've got a valid vaccination or that you've recovered from cove at 19 in the last 6 months. elsewhere like in the cities of hamburg and here in berlin, then you can get on public transport without being able to prove that you are vaccinated, recovered, or that you have a valid p c, r test. now we gauge the opinion of some people here in the german capital of what they make of the measures employed. i find it absolutely right, especially in the current situation, we must be very thorough. personally,

i have no issues with this. as i want to have safety when getting from a to be the senate us, it's difficult for many when they do not want to get vaccinated, but still want to use public transport. they will have to find other ways to move around. i find it a bit device if it's shocking, has they are using case numbers to force us into another lockdown. mr. said a said we 9 on the scale of one to 10 at the apocalypse, where are at 9, but that relates to the quality of our politicians and not to the situation that prevails on the ground. well, we have a new government on the way and they are going to be facing huge challenges, whichever way you slice it when it comes to this latest of the covey pandemic. now there is news coming out on thursday that the outgoing chancellor angle america had wanted to put the country into a 2 week lockdown that would have started from well thursday. today. however,

it said be reported in those german tabloids that the incoming government led by all our shots. they have blocked. they said that's not the way they want to go. so it's not going to be locked downs. there is this huge problem with the 4th wave of coven 19 in germany. we're going to have to look to see what their plan is to tackle it. it oliver, while with germany's 4th cobra, waive in full swing hospitals are feeling the strain intensive care units are running at full capacity nationwide and frontline stuff are not only dealing with that, but also the push for them to have mandatory vaccination to this is for only a few weeks ago, there was discussion about making vaccination, compulsory foreign nurses. many employees are afraid since there are risks medical concerns that, that up against taking it. but the compulsory vaccination for all discussion has taken root. now, because the virus spreading hearing about compulsory vaccination for all meaning throughout the health sector and other industries is also not unprecedented. it was

discussed a few weeks ago since it can be a fast way of containing the virus. the situation was already tense before the pandemic. the workload is high in nursing homes and hospitals. it's not surprising that there is opposition of health workers have to get vaccinated by it, but vaccination was made compulsory for every one hesitancy could be reduced significantly. health workers would be less single doubt and every one being in that together it would lead to broader acceptance. this in turn would create high vaccination rate and increase the chances of containing the virus and subsequently hygiene related cove measures may finally be abolished. moreover, it's a chance to relieve the added pressure that health clinics and care facility staff are experiencing a nighttime curfew has been extended in the

french territory of guadalupe permit on rest. over covered restrictions, riots civil ser, spread to another caribbean island. martinique it's re ignited longstanding hostility against the authorities. and boris, protest brake outside the cove. it measures rocking frances overseas territory. telephone roads, block shops, looting my. there was a law. unfortunately it had to come to this. we elected representatives, but they couldn't stand when we have to say the youth is fed up with this. parents said special forces to bring down tension testers, ready against mandatory vaccination health work and health policy pain to stop the spread of quite a bit. we have no more freedom here. we have become violent last it still, i had on the program, we look at what they post merkel euro will mean for germany. has

a coalition deal is finally struck with a new chancellor now in waiting with join me every thursday on the alex simon, sure. i'll be speaking to guess in the world of politics, sport, business, i'm show business. i'll see you. then what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy even foundation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult time. time to sit down and talk

to produce with cell phone double. membrane stretches which are like sax, which capture portions of cytoplasm and then deliver them to water, the incinerator of the cell, the lies as of what degradation. so that's what we'll talk with you. yes, i am with ah, quarter can are into the program. welcome back. french police comp arrested 5 people in a crack done on human trafficking gangs. after at least 27 migrants die trying to reach the u. k. in an inflatable digney on wednesday, the tragedy has also led to london and paris trading accusations over where responsibility lies the u. k. home secretary,

pretty patel told the house of commons this thursday about sheet outlined her proposals to france and how to resolve the crisis. my once again leased out and made my offer very clear to france in terms of joint france and u. k. cooperation, joint patrols to prevent these dangerous journey from taking place. the means also, madam deputy speaker. no quick fix. 27 people drowned in the english channel near the car lay after their boat cap size, which marks the biggest loss of life in the english channel. 5 women and even a young girl and pregnant women were all among those gentle front since $1500.00 smugglers have been arrested under around $44.00 smuggler networks. dismantled. but that's simply not good enough. considering the latest statistics of nearly 26000 people, reaching british shows just this year alone, which is triple that of 2020. now both sides of the channel are essentially blaming each other. we've long had

a tit for tat war of was between bars. johnson's government on and d, emmanuel microns as well. and now the french authorities are flat out, refusing to join in with that promise of a joint patrol mission on the shores, which by the way, the united kingdom put forward 54000000 pounds for that mission. so they're all questions like, where is that money going and in any case, can you really store money after situation like this, a humanitarian crisis now? well, the french say that they've been working day and night to stop these crossing. however, just yesterday morning, a group of more than 40 asylum seekers were pictured carrying a dinghy towards the waters in that photograph french piece appeared to be standing by and simply doing nothing. there are to the questions for the u. k. government as well because whatever the government has been doing, it's not good enough either. simply isn't working. we've had over the last few years, pretty much empty platitudes and almost aggressive slogans coming from the government

. particularly from the home secretary, pre to patel who has round 3 years ago said she would make these crossings an infrequent phenomenon. and more recently, she vowed to shut off the route entirely, making them on viable while despite this tragedy just yesterday afternoon. and indeed this morning we've seen more boats attempting to cross the english channel. the terrible weather expected in the next few days potentially is why many people are risking their lives across the english china because they feel this is almost there last opportunity for a while. but we've heard from the head of the port in carla and he said this is something we were sure could happen. and even those on the rescue mission just yesterday said how, just, how many more people flew the lives before the government actually intervene to stop this the, this is real group assassination. and then the situation we experience today, we have been dreading it for a long time. we have been sounding the alarm for

a long time, despite the humanitarian crisis. now, will the government actually do anything? after years and now years of a west sitting situation was cross live now to sure and can a human rights lawyer in london for his take your welcome to the program, sir. just perhaps on the last point our correspondent was making france on the you care pointing fingers out each other over the tragedy. what mean policy change from from either side is necessary to stop such incidence in your view? i think there is quite a lot that the government can be doing. i mean, mainly initially about the british government. i mean, i think we've heard today as well about them talking about how they're going to be best and more into it. how they're, what steps they're going to be taken, but it does seem that they completely refused to actually invest in and talk about and consider and agree to do the one thing that would actually stop this. and that is introducing developing, establishing, improving safe niga routes for

a site asylum seekers to reach the u. k. now the situation of that is, and i think because of, you know, move spread by the media politicians, government, many people will not realize this, but there is no specific legal route. i wish someone can come to the u. k mas item . yeah. so the south side, i'm seeking these a honda, jonathan, british embassy for instance. and they have gone on in any other country and iraq and syria. i just want to came as either you have to get to the table for us and only then kind of things. i know. so i'm not surprised. obviously people who are desperate want to save their lives. well, you shannon danger or care on fleet persecution though france is a safe country. why do you think people feel compelled to endanger their and their children's lives to reach the u. k. what sense is there in that? oh, well i think that there could be different reasons for that. i mean, 1st year again, we're talking about, you know, like i said, minutes about this. the thing is that there is no obligation to national,

to came asylum in the country. so i think that's something that i'm restrictions again and again say as if it means that someone isn't a genuine asylum seeker because it came to sign in the 1st. so that's not a requirement, but saying no, but we're talking about people who need to, to get away from war on famine and all the other issue is surrounding them on a day to day basis. that's not happening in france yet. they want to come to the u . k. and one of the busiest and most dangerous crossings in the world. what is that reason for that is, is it benefits upon arrival? is it meeting up with family? is that something that's not vital yet? it's happening on a record level every day. so i mean, it could be a many number of reasons. first the, i might, they might have a 2nd. they speak english rather than french, so they will after. but here, it's easier for them to integrate your 30 is because of british or a brief moment. and one mentioned those have you or isn't gonna stand any other countries or people knew them? how to british forces anyway, or bet,

had written in any way or bridge and had actually had in euro to pay in the reasons that gave rise to their prosecution on the war there. if you not, they have right up to the you. and in terms of the benefits, no, in fact our benefit system is faster and more stringent than francis. i'm here, but that's one of the issues you get benefits upon arrival and get you to get benefits. but obviously, i mean, i don't know what the alternative is. we stop these people, we don't give them a group over the head. and was of course yes. what is in high sing them, sir? yes, but i also mean, i mean that, that, that is not into enticing either. the reason that given those are the main reason you belong coming for the 30, i mean, the weekly announce outside it is 39 pounds a week, which is absolutely nothing upfront is the more, okay, was just that. and they either. but as you know, british people have voted numerous times for a conservative government over the past decade or so. where one of the pledges was

to cut down and immigration especially illegal immigration. this is what people have voted for. increasingly yet the opposite is happening. shouldn't there are fears, concerns be listen to more i'm you went to japan. no, but i mean i don't agree with that. i think the main thing is mostly august and who could foresee of grandson, who could foresee any of the other disasters? i have been all humanity and due to which they belong to escape so fast, it's hard to justify that anyway. and but think of why should the u. k. have to deal with that? why not? why not other countries in that region such that don't talent are dangerous dangerous, at passage to such as saudi arabia hasn't taken one refugee yet? the culture is similar, and it's not such a dangerous boy just to western europe. so saudi arabia did these other other countries in that region, any nearer? oh sir. and no, but i, i, i mean, i think that something like that what the greatest poster refugee is turkey,

pakistan. so many other countries that we don't talk about because they just neighbor country that people go to and settle there. they taking tens hundreds of times more refugees in the u. k. and then the you can always be north, cross jason, more than 5 times the number of asylum seekers eat it up. the point of the you case and i know if you're going to say, you know, how does any science you ever get ready for that? you sent back people who are right to the by c, then that means we don't ever taken any same sequence, which i think is unfair. okay, what we really just have to enter there. but thank you very much for coming on the program and sharing your view. show them can human rights lawyer live from london? the canadian government has a fight on its hands with environmental groups warning of extreme action, including eco terrorism. if their demands and cutting carbon emissions, aren't mets a spokesman for extinction? rebellion said the retribution in canada and elsewhere for not listening to their demands could be lethal. not only will pipelines be blown up,

but we can be certain that worldly does will be put on trial for treason or worse, be killed. that statement was made and supportive canadian scientists and campaigner, david suzuki, who's been accused of inciting violence authorities in the countries maine or producing regional burton have moved to formally condemn suzuki suggestion the pipelines could be blown up. we're in deep, deep do do. this is what we've come to the next stage after this that going to be pipelines blown up. if our leaders don't pay attention to what's going on, it's absolutely an implicit or winking incitement to violence. this is totally irresponsible on the part of david suzuki. i think statements like that are not helpful in terms of climate change and climate action is government takes out very seriously. that's why we have a very solid climate action plan. that's the way that we're going to address climate change. not by making statements that will alarm people cause concern.

david suzuki and 85 year olds who ologist was speaking during an extinction rebellion protest in the city of victoria. the rallies followed floods that killed 4 people in british columbia and were widely blamed on climate change. meanwhile, keys own foundation tried to distance itself from his comments insisting the activist speaks for himself. but the group went on to say that campaigners are frustrated. what they claim is government inaction, somewhat big you asleep. david suzuki himself denies inciting violence, saying he doesn't support destroying pipelines, but also doesn't regret his words. we discuss this story with some guest when david suzuki says, result is going to be that pipelines are blown up. probably saying is that canadians are frustrated by the canadas hypocrisy when it comes to the environment . and actually the man is 100 percent correct. he did not call for illegal activity, he is merely expressing the frustration of canadians at the hypocrisy of

our governments. while the canadian government is making these climate commitments at the same time, the canadian government bought a pipeline to extract very polluting tar sands oil. the british columbia government is trying to push a pipeline through native land, the wet to wet and land, and other native lands that the people do not want. i think actually someone with his prominence and exposure saying such thing. whether there were men directly or not provide the mechanism in it and. busy platform a reaches many people and you've got you've got different sectors in the environmental up there that are very screen. you can say strong messages without advocating some type of illegal activity or destruction of some type. do not think

this strong environmentalists will ever be satisfied with any about to expect everyone to jump in to green environment is unrealistic driven. finance minister love should set to become the nation's next chancellor, replacing anglo merkel that's after his party and 2 others are great to team up in what's been nickname, the traffic light coalition, referring to the parties, colors. it took 2 full months for the social democrats, the greens on the free democrats to agree on terms after september's election. the c d. u party, which leads the outgoing government, had this to say about the country's new leadership. different black, the agreement that was presented today is relatively blunt and in many parts it's vague and the parties fall short of the things they propagated during the election campaign. despite the differences between the 2 main parties, it will show stance on foreign policy as seen as close to the other. thank le, merkel, and judging by the new coalition agreement relations with law, school are unlikely to see drastic change. russia is an important international

plan. we understand the importance of substantial and stable relationships and we continue to strive for them. we're ready thought constructive dialogue. we will take into account different threat perceptions and focus on a common and coherent you policy towards russia. i spoke today to frank christian hansel, a member of the berlin, pardon for the alternative for germany party. he said he is confident that situation the country is going to get worse. under the new coalition, the merkel government will sort of continue. it's getting worse in that sense that that would be my mom i creation due to the greens. there will be more energy problems due to the greens and they wish to foster a renewable energies with wind and, and all of our energy which will not work refuge, geez, they do not come promot larry to gain freedom, but to pay take part in our social work for

a state. and the problem is that we are getting too many people into the country who will need our social system. and even high qualified germans will leave the country, go to other countries where they expect to have a better life due to the new situation in germany. and this is mathematically equation which will not work. that's it for me for now. done will be here at the top, taking you through the days. big developments after another short talk here in our t inside and t fast stay close for that one. ah, mm. mm sure, i mean the 1st one was the spiritual, someone at the, for the.
