the queue of people are lining up in front of a close the ticket sales counter. they're hoping it will open and they might be a few things that they can still get on. many of them are persons because the united kingdom was the 1st to read list 6, southern african countries. and in that any traffic coming from them would have to go into quarantine for 10 days at a government facility. since then the united states, canada, and the european union and other major destination have followed prices for flights and rapid pci. skyrocketing, kim kerr, who is the founder and need volunteer of community circle home, south africa ads for the last year. been hoping, traveling in an south africa, navigate the regulation. she's been inundated with calls apart from people running out of money. yeah. funds that they had that they had thought that was going to cost them to be medical aids usually only cover you for a certain amount of time abroad. travel, medical cover only covers you

a certain amount of time that's going to run out. people have to get back to jobs. schools are gonna open soon, and the people trying to get the children home. the sense of loss is going to be felt because people are feeling like they are really trapped. and they're becoming more and more frustrated and see more and more tis what i'm hoping is that governments can put measures in place that not just citizens, but family of citizens. if you can show just show proof of some ty to that country that those people will be allowed entry. even if it means extra p c r testing or it means a little bit of quarantined with retesting in that country. that people have to understand that these are human beings. these are people who have got a need to travel, not a one. it is not clear where the on the very 1st, but scientists from south africa were the 1st to note the world health organization . the south african government has criticized international community for rushing

to ban travel before the variance is properly safe and is concerned about the damage the bad will do to both travel and business. for now, the face of people stranded f. s a port is unclear as a volt, struggling to build with the new 300 foot south africa into the races. now on for vaccine developers who are preparing to test their drugs against the new covet string, the head of the russian institute behind sputnik v. c, lab studies will start as soon as they can get hold of a sample. so far, researchers are optimistic, hungry is one of the european nations using funding fee study there has signed that the job is effective against all. busy previous school, but mutations, it's also proven more successful in preventing hospitalization on death than other vaccines. the hungarian foreign minister disgust his country's immunization efforts with our teeth tax on the boy to the full interview run the throughout the day in our program worlds apart. here's part of it. i really don't find the verse to

describe how i feel about the fact that there are still many countries. considering the issues of vaccination as if it had a political or, or ideological nature. you know, it's about the lives of the people. we knew in the lives of the people, what is it for them as far as your mother or political, it's whether a political and ideological debate, i'm very frustrated about that. to be honest. and i tell you why europe on the regulation speaks very clearly about how way vaccine can be approved on the territory of 2 ways. first, by the european madison agency, which is a normal, let's say, business of usual way of approving a vacuum. but a european regulation says that in case of the state of emergency, this one, the national regulators, are allowed to approve of axioms. also on a temporary basis before we started to use both splitting casino far from china,

the national regulator of ours has approved the use of both. which means that the use of scrutiny in hungary is being based on a european regulation. and that's why, to be honest, we don't understand why it is not being respected by the by the other member states . whenever i talk to western european colleagues on my vest or european colleagues of mine between for i, they always tell me that they know that the russian scientific performance can be spoken about calling very highly. and i said, look, it 1st the best. of course it works well, hungary and experts have approve that. and regardless of the fact that privately, they all say that when it goes to public, they act totally differently. i know that you, you have plans of actually producing to think on your own territory. so you're actually gaining from the lack of action on the part of your european neighbors. actually, we begin to lot, especially at the beginning because, you know,

at the beginning, i mean like 1st part of this year, the deliveries from, from western producers were quite sometimes late. they were cancelled even sometimes, totally. or the volume was less compared to what was contracted. and at those times the fact that the boast uniform and whitney delivered on time to us additional volumes compared to others. that gave us a huge advantage. we could reopen the country and the national economy around 2 months earlier than the european of rich. can i ask you a personal question? and it is really a personal question since you are a preferred put of all be. i think it's a vaccine that i approved for use in hungary. why did you do that? c reason for my decision was crystal clear that when i was a kid, i was vaccinated by rack scenes produced in the rush that obvious union. and since i'm alive, fi, find i for that. why should i change quite that change? so that was a very simple reason of my decision to get me

or peter s t r t r t not it's vital that vaccine makers work together to in the panoramic said the head of the russian fun behind this. but nick v shot on r t dot com crill. demetrius flesh is a statement in a wide ranging interview. it's available luck. renewed pandemic clumped on across much of western european spark, widespread st on rest and clusters with police. although the european union is distancing itself from the tough security response, saying it's purely a matter for national governments. ah, with that since the european

commission was not present at the scene of the riots and is not a police organization, it is not in the best position to comment on the actions of the police of the e. you states. the maintenance of public oda is strictly within the scope of the national forties of the e you states, and is supervised by the national courts. and the european commission is not in the best position to make specific comments. earlier this month, an anti locked on protests and the dutch city of rotterdam. 50 want to rest, remade on 3 people, hospitalized after police fired warning. shouts. similar scenes to in the hague were 7 arrest, remade, and in austria, demonstrated for a met with a heavy 100 police response. after the announcement of mandatory cova jones, which also been large scale marches across fronts in belgium. and while the e u is refusing to condemn tough crime control tactics in its own member states,

it takes a very different view. what other countries the detention of over a 1000 demonstrators and violence used against them by the russian authorities across the country to day. threatened the fundamental freedoms of expression association and assembly in the russian federation. fresh to the people in hong kong. the support of it'll be a new toys now autonomy, how fundamental freedom we will continue to stand. my dear, people are hung below. russians have 30 into the streets. we smash protests and to ours, the violence against this peaceful protest us was shirking and unacceptable which undone this brutality and spect. oh, full in transparent investigation, yet oh, but he said, i would like to read to rate the right of the cuban people to express their opinions in a peaceful manner. and i want to ask the government to allow these peaceful

demonstrations and to listen to the discontent of the protesters of unit. but if he good or former newspaper and a very lucrative a thanks. brussels views on human rights are riddled with contradictions. europe to european union have been commissioned all the land. they think we think somehow all europeans that we are gods gifted that we know what is good for the people in the world. we think that on human rights, our position is always the right one. so sanction people we sanction be a mot if you're just done an african conversation countries, china and russia. of course, the arch villain. that is a double standard because i was astonished as he got a pin citizen to see that in the netherlands. one of the most, the more state of our countries in western europe, the police had to shoot with real bullets in the crowd. the press was very silent about this. it was in the press, but they did not insist while to me,

it's something incredible. it's the 1st time since the last world war that we have to police in west, we're shooting directly and people walk. there were some problems just after the war, but, but not that much. so ok, good reasons that work black blocks, you know, extremists were there in the groups demonstrating but still in western europe, shooting with real bullets and the crowd. and then we have lessons to give to other countries. right. that's, there is a problem that obviously mrs. funder lang should say something, even if it's not aimed at the dutch government for rocks now, it should be aimed at old government's asking for restraint. that's a minimum that she should say. c search teams are working to retrieve bodies from may say buran coleman, who are an explosion on thursday led to the dense of 51. people including 5 rescuers emergency crews have had to stop their work several times to, to hi me,

thin concentrations and fears of further blast. the bodies of 5 miners have been found at various stages since saturday afternoon, 300 meters underground. there had been a moment of genuine hope earlier when a rescuer who had been presumed dead, managed to get out. his survival was described as a miracle. he's now in stable condition in hospital undescribed what happened and i feel better now that i'm getting all the necessary treatment inside the mine. i was lucky to find a place where the fresh air was flowing in. so that gave me time to lie down and get my strength back. i had all the life saving equipment with me. later i stood up and got out following the stream of fresh air and finally met the local rescuers team for which i'm thankful. now efforts to stabilize the mine of the going round, the clock in nitrogen has been used to clear out the dangerous method that is built up inside the mine and poses a risk of explosion. now at this point,

there are literally no chances that anybody has survived to was trapped inside. however, they destroyed family members are still hoping that there could be some miracle and that their loved ones could still be alive. yeah, but yet my son is down there in the mine. as his mother, i feel that he is alive without some hope. when one man was found alive, he see if that man spent a day down there and survived. it means it's possible to survive. but we are tall, people die in 2 or 3 hours due to lack of air minus her onto their ramble. they are already counted his dad just like that man has survived. now it's hard breaking to watch those scenes. there are still many family members who haven't lost hope, and their hope was me bolstered by the miraculous recovery of a rescue worker who was presumed dead on friday. and having spent almost an entire day trapped inside the mind, the 51 year old alexander's accommodation somehow managed to get out of that mine.

his condition right now is stable, although critical, but it's expected that he will make a full recovery and make it back to his wife and son. but unfortunately, the same can't be said for the others who are trapped inside the mind. 51 people ultimately died and people are now wondering how this happened and what led up to this. a criminal investigation has been launched, and 5 people have been detained and arrested. the director of the coal mine, his deputy, and the person in charge of this exact mine have all been detained and also to safety inspectors who are accused of faking a safety inspection just a week before this tragic explosion. now all these people have denied their guilt, but nevertheless they have been arrested for 2 months, pending further investigation. but one thing that has become clear is that this mind has been plagued by safety issues. apparently, most of the miners knew about these issues and the report of them, the higher ups from the one that was go home, sleep. i remember my brother in law telling me about a methane program in the mine,

the even that results to various methods to decrease the level indicators in order to get work done. he occasionally let his former head know about the situation. he wondered how he could work in such circumstances. the minds management was aware of what was going on with him. my husband came home and every time he was saying these won't and well, all the sensors were beeping down there. he sat, that's the condition as our minus have to working at the moment. now, all of these reports will be taken into account by the investigation, which is trying to get to the bottom of what happened, how it happened, what led up to it, what were the underlying causes, and ultimately, how to prevent such things from happening again. but while that investigation goes on and rescue services continue working on securing the mind and recovering the body's relatives are still distraught and demanding more answers. dmitri powell, arts, he camera among the survivors of thursday's explosion. dozens are injured. a list of their names is on display. at the entrance to the mine medic say they're making

a strong recovery and are all in a stable condition. let's take a look back. not how the tragedy actually unfolded over 50 dead out. they horrific mon explosion inside period. 8, 30 am november the 25th, the mind with 285 people inside filled with smoke after him methane explosion. so small up with 9 am november 25th vacuum ation and rescue work starts. reports of 1st casualties. the authorities announced there is no contact with at least 37 people at 5 pm, november the 25th rescue operation suspended amid fears. if possible. explosion

with over 30 mine is still missing. rescue say there's not much hope left because it's minus have only 4 hours of oxygen supply. 10 pm november, the 25th group of rescue workers fails to come up after the threat of explosion. latent 3 of them were found day. oh, not on friday. and i deal with 3 15 pm, november the 26th. a presumed dead rescue work came out on his own bracing hope among the desperate families of mine is it is not the 1st deadly accident in this mine. with another me said explosion claiming 13 lives in 2004. i a just yesterday a

yeah, just the spare and anger there really? i got reaction earlier from this oster investigator, arnold, dixon, melbourne. he explained some of the difficulties facing search cruise in such a situation. it's not like on hollywood, you can't send emergency services in so day, so far with technology, even today's technology to getting there safely. the area has to be made safe. typically in a mining accident when something like this happens, vit. there is no simple solution. this is the, the worst nightmare of, of anybody who's involved with mining. they usually aren't other options when the ventilation systems being compromised, when you've had the explosions, when the systems are destroyed or severely damaged. at the,

the options are very limited. a recovery operation in circumstances like this is extremely dangerous. it's extremely dangerous because in the 1st instance, the fact that the disasters occurred at all suggests that there's been a failure in the emergency and in fact normal ventilation systems and then they, having bain and explosion, it means that many of the safety systems, a likely now to be in operable and i suspect certainly it's been, it's my experience. but that's the sort of difficulty that these rescue was now facing on the one hand. and there's the possibility that people may be trapped in areas with air which is still tenable. but on the other hand, the very real risk that rescuers themselves might be injured or worse in their attempts to find them. still a head in the program, a social media influence sir caesar furious backlash against her posts. after

recording on line her journey as a migrant heading to europe, we bricked on that story in just a little over a minute more besides than to stay close. ah

join me every thursday on the alex salmon? sure. i'll be speaking the guess of the world of politics, sport business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. mm. ah ah, hello again. to protesters have been killed and close to 20 injured by the french army in niger bounce, according to local officials. it occurred after a military convoy on route to another african nation. molly was blocked by a large skill demonstration. the convoy of the french ball. kane force,

escorted by the national gent armory, was blocked by very violent protesters in sarah, in the talbert region. where at spend the night in its attempt to break free use force leading to the death of 2 people and 18 wounded club. we have it from official accounts authorities in nyja, which say that after the french convoy had passed from burkina faso into niger about 30 kilometers in a huge crowd about a 1000. demonstrators tried to stop the convoy this, this french conway french. her presence in the area has been unpopular with many people, with some at felicity's. they believe all manner of stories about french troops and their relations with various rebel groups in the area, but they try to stop this convoy and french troops supposedly began firing what they describe as warning shots, as well as tier gas,

it is unclear how wounding shots could have injured 18 people killed 2, but apparently french troops as well as an is jerry and troops began firing a warning shots. again, as they say at these crowds details the still somewhat scarcely expect to find out more. but the convoy has moved on off to this incident again, a very ill fated envoy because it landed in the ivory coast to support the french operation in the area. it is since snaked its way up towards the north towards molly and on the way it has said capital matter of incidents and book in a fashion that will multiple attempts by, by crowds in the thousands has stopped. these cottonwood voss convoy made up of more than a 1000 vehicles and then also they had the flood warning shots as well as g, a gas, in an effort to disperse the crowds. also number of people injured. as we've heard

. busy but again, this convoy is now on its way through nyja, intimately where friendship bases and french hoops are station thousands of them. in the decade long flight that frances waged against terrorists. it cools them as well as religious extremists in the region where we have us, the french defense ministry to comment on the incidents. we'll let you know if the reply earlier a french army spokesperson said that soldiers fired warning shots after a quote violent grip tried to take over the convoy trucks. an instagram influencer from chin as it has been slammed after posting about her reported secret . crossing to italy on a boat with migrants. this is the video that the girl posted surrounded by fellow migrants in a boat. according to italian reports, the social media creator arrived on the island of lump. adieu, said she claim severe social conditions and to nicea force her to seek asylum in

italy and describe the experience of the boat trip a terrible. this was some of the reaction during a clandestine crossing on an irregular boat, a to museum influence, it publishes instagram stories and photos. joyful and smiling. a leave the comments to you. we can not allow easily it's laws and it's board is to be mocked in this way. let politicians from italy's, the league party who we spoke to also criticized the influence her over the void demo. my yeah, love it. it's a real shame when people are arriving in italy, who do not need to come. people who are not hungry are coming. they're coming to us to italy because they want a better life. but in fact, they're not bad off economically, like this to ninian blogger. those who are really poor, who remained in africa and are dying of hunger, it is in africa that we should try to help them and not via these

n g o z and via what amounts to illegal immigration. europe must help us to stop these landings. they arrive in sicily, too many migrants arrive and europe is not helping us. a big show is made out of these crossings. in addition, in italy, there are many people who think they are being good and say they want to welcome migrants. but in reality, they do not realize how many difficulties there are for italians and for us to cillian who are experiencing a really difficult period. italy is well of a number of european countries experiencing a surgeon asylum claims you. k, france relations recently took a new term for the worst after french president multnomah chronic, his boyish chelsor feeling to offer any kind of solution to the cross channel migrant prices. on the belarus, poland border remains tense to prompting the bell russian leader to visit one of the and migrant centers. the moore of lump producer sais, europe ought to have a rethink on migration. so listen closely. the solution is easy. europe cannot

delegate the task of welcoming migrants to certain states. europe must assume as responsibilities more should be done, but the question is, what does europe not want to tackle the issue of migration? there is no strategy to keep migrants away. it doesn't exist because margaret would bypass the obstacle and was still come to italy, even pussy. it was to control boulders would be useless, their laws and documents that should be respected and that europe itself does not respect. there is no end to all this. the situation is always the same, nothing has changed. here in lamp inducer, there are no places to welcome every one. we have more than 300 and aged children who do not know where to send our reception, sensory suffering. there are too many people. the politicians are not thinking about it right now. we are collapsing, we can't go on like this. from the you. we have received only indifference and from the italian government also indifference that we seemed to spend half our lives these days online, constantly sharing our personal info with banks and shops,

etc. so just how can we actually stay safe in a virtual world, some easy to follow tips are coming away next. in our program, i am hacked, stay close. ah, ah, no hungarian proverb says you can't put everything under one hand. it means that the same rules can't be applied to every one. and yet this is what budapest signed up to when it entered the european union in 2004 to day hungry as accused of all possible sins against democracy. now does the or bank government feel about its future and place in the european family.
