yes, the queue moments, it's shadley with ah, it's well becomes the 1st country to places borders to all foreign nationals the do what you coven strain the on the con, variances already spreading globally with australia and italy among the latest to detect cases. and also i had, my son is down there in the mine as his mother, i feel that he is alive. among stories that shapes the weak scenes of heartbreak as found, many is more than the loss of $51.00 people and a psy berry and coal mine explosion. several manages out officials happy, arrested over thursdays, dissolved stump. and to protest is the kill 10 over tells them injured by the frenchman. a treat in nevada, according to local authorities,

after an army convoy on the way to molly was confronted by rioters. ah, they look back out here big stories of the past 7 days out of holes all the very latest to this is the weekly on r t a one. welcome to our program. what, of course, the thing that everyone's talking about ms. route is closing its borders to all foreign nationals for 2 weeks. and as global panic spreads over, a new coven variant. dozens of countries have halted flights from southern africa, where the on the constrain was fast detected. back in johannesburg, the restrictions have left passengers scrambling to get out. so many of them, it's already too late. the last plains to europe and north america have already departed ahead of travel deadlines and post by governments, while flights to major connection hub. so we're talking doha, dubai, on single pole, i will be suspended policy in audio. i spoke with travelers at south africa

biggerstaff because nothing i can do coming as a poll. not getting anything faint. and i don't know when, when i can, i can fly to, we've checked on the friends and the flight wasn't consult. i think you can. you hear, i'm see, i'm 10, live the way they do everything. so we're going to buy a new ticket. so they have chaos and diety and confusion. following the discovery of a new coven variant called emmy crohn, at his turn, the world upside down. people are rushing to the a port in a pace for the attempt to get on any remaining slice. and in fact, the queue of people are lining up in front of a ticket sales counter. they're hoping it will open, and there might be a few things that they can still get on. many of them a person because the united kingdom was the 1st to read list 6 southern african

countries and insist that any travellers 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 twice a flight and rapid pcl taste. skyrocketing kim kirk, who is the founder and need volunteer of community circle home south africa for the last year. been hoping, traveling in and 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. treble 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 going to 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 quarantine with retesting in that country. but people have to understand that these are human beings. these are people who have got a need to travel, not a once. it is not clear where the army con, very 1st emerged. scientists from south africa were the 1st to alert the world health organization. the south african government has criticized international community for rushing to ban travel before the variance is properly assessed and is concerned about the damage the bad will do to both travel and business for now, the faith of people stranded f. s. a post is unclear, as well,

struggled to deal with the new 300 south africa, a renewed pandemic clump down across much of western europe hotspots widespread st . on rest on clashes with police. the european union is distancing itself from the tough security response, saying that's purely a matter for national governments. ah, with 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 you states. the maintenance of public order is strictly within the scope of the national forties of the you states and is supervised by the national courts. and

the european commission is not in the best position to make specific comments what this month. that's an anti locked down protest in the dutch city of rotterdam. 51 arrests were made and 3 people hospitalized after peace fight warning shots. similar scenes to an have last, 7 arrests were made. and over at austria demonstrate his were met with a heavy handed police response off the announcement of mandatory coven shots has also been large scale, much as across france and belgium. and while the e was refusing to condemn tough crowd control tactics in its members states, it takes a very different view with 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 assemble in the russian federation. fresh to the people in hong kong. the support of it'll be

a new new toys now autonomy and from the mental freedom we will continue to stand. my dear people are hung, bella russians have tutoring to the streets. we smash protests and towards the valence are doing this piece will protest, us was shortened and unacceptable which undone this brutality and spect a full and transparent investigation. he had always finished her. 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 protest as of unit. but if he could, former newspaper editor look with a thanks brussels views on human rights, are riddled with contradictions. europe, to european union, european commission, all the land. they think we think somehow old 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, was the right one. so sanction, we sanction being mom. if you're just done an african conversation countries, china and russia, of course, the arch villain. that is the whole standard because i was astonished that you got a pin citizen to see that in that the late one of the most the longest they provide countries in western europe. the police had to shoot with real bullets in the crowd . the pressure was very silent about this. it was in a respite that did not insist while to me. it's something incredible. it's the 1st on since the last world war that we have to police in west, we're shooting directly and people walking. there were some problems just off of the war but, but not that much. so ok, good reasons that work black blocks, you know, extremists were there in the groups demonstrating that still in western europe, shooting with real bullets and the crowd. and then we have lessons to give to other

countries. great. that there is a problem that obviously missed on the land should say something, even if it's not aimed at the dutch government for rotterdam, it should be aimed at old government's asking for restraint. that's a minimum that she should say. now to russian story thoughts teams are watson for treat bodies from a siberian coal mine where an explosion on thursday led to the death of 51. people including 5 rescue us emergency crews have had to stop that was several times due to high methane concentrations and phase of thought that last the bodies of 5 minus have been found to various stages since saturday afternoon, 300 meters on the ground. there had been a moment of when hope ali i went to rescue, i slipping, presumed dead, managed to get out i, his survival has been described, of course, as a miracle. he's now in stable condition in hospital and described. what happened

i few little now that i'm getting older, necessary treatment inside the mine i was lucky to find a place where the fresh air was full within. 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 my 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 mind and poses a risk of explosion. now at this point, there are literally no chances that anybody has survived 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, that might yet my son is down there in the mine. as his mother, i felt 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 our 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 so many family members who haven't lost hope and their hope was only 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 a garage and 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 reported them to the higher ups from the one little scogel. honestly, i remember my brother in law telling me about a methane program in the mine. they even had to resort 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 it. 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 conditions our minus half 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 well among the survivors, all star stays explosion, doesn't to inject a list of the names is on display at the entrance to the mine magic say that making a strong recovery and are all in a stable condition. why now, let's take a look back at how the tragedy actually unfolded a. 6 50 dead out. they horrific mon explosion inside barrier. 8 30 am november the 25th. the mind with 285 people inside filled with smoke. after a methane explosion,

a customer with 9 am november 25th, actuation and rescue work starts. reports of 1st casualties. the authorities announced there is no contact with at least 37 people. with 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. 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 today. oh, good luck. on friday,

i'm calling with 3 15 pm, november the 26th. a presumed dead rescue work came out on his own raising hope among the desperate families of miners. it is not the 1st deadly accident in this mine with another me said explosion claiming 13 lives in 2004. i 9 me, me just just realistic of what looks like you are with and got reaction from does asked investigator, arnold tex, explain some of the difficulties facing such chris right now. 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. so 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, to the options of 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 as

a 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 rescue was themselves might be injured or worse in their attempts to find them while still had in the program, a social media influence as he's a furious backlash against how pose subbed reporting online. how johnny as a migraine headache to europe, that story and more in just a little over a minute said i got a lot. ah what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms. race is often very dramatic development only personally,

i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successfully, very difficult time. time to sit down and talk ah with

oh, well come back. now q protestors have been killed and close to 20, injured by the french army in the shadows, according to local officials. it occurred after a military convoy on route to another african nation. molly was blocked by large scale demonstrations. 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 i had spent the night in its attempt to break free use force, leading to the death of 2 people and 18 wounded club we have it's from official accounts authorities in nyja which say that off to 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 convoy fred check presents 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. so 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 conflict because it landed in the ivory coast to support the french opperation in the area has since snaked its way up towards the north towards

molly. and on the way it has said capital matter of incidence and book in a fashion that will multiple attempts, but what crowds, in the thousands has stopped the spotwood vos convoys 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 call boy is now on its way through niger, intimately where friendship bases and fridge hoops are station thousands of them. in this decade long flight that frances waged against terrorists. it cooled them as well as religious extremists in the region. we reached out to the french defense ministry. the commander told us that night carrying peace on french offices, hot to fi warning shots off to being subjected to a violent attack and stone throwing it said 7 front soldiers and employees were injured. as a result of the assault, we're moving on now and instagram

a very different story from it to nicea has been slammed off to posting about ha, reported secret crossing to italy on a boat with migrants. well, this is the video right here that the gall posted surrounded by fellow migrants and a boat. according to italian reports, the social media creator arrives on the island of lamb, producer. she claimed several social conditions and chin as if forced to seek asylum in italy. and described the experience of the boat trip as terrible while this was to some of the reaction during a clandestine crossing on an irregular boat, the to museum influence of 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 borders to be marked in this way. a politician from italy's denique party, who he spoke to also criticized influenza over the voyage. jim on my yeah,

love it. a real shame on people 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 new jersey and blogger. those who are really poor remained in africa and i'm dying of hunger. it is in africa that we should try to help them and not via these n jose and via what amounts to illegal immigration on europe must help us to stop these landings. they arrive in sicily to many migrants arrive in europe, is not helping us. a big show is made out of these crossings. in addition and italy, there are many people who think they are being good and say they want to welcome mike or and but in reality they do not realize how many difficulties there are for italians. and for us to syrians who are experiencing a really difficult period while they fall against a backdrop with the fact that italy is one of a number of european countries experiencing a such,

an asylum claims you pay for information. for example, recently took a new turn for the wa stuffed up french president minute micro accused bars. johnson failing to offer a solution to the cross channel michael crisis. the better of poland border remains tense to prompting the better russian leader to visit one of the migrant centers. the mayor of lamb producer says you must rethink how it tackles in legal immigration. so so, so say the solution is easy, europe cannot delegate the task of welcoming migraines. to certain states. europe must assume its responsibilities more should be done, but the question is, why did you 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 lump inducer, there are no places to welcome every one. we have more than 300 under aged children

who do not know where to send. our reception center is 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. finally, for this ally, the u. k government has added hm ass in its entirety to its list of terrorist organizations that despite protests from the palestinian authorities, a previously only the military wang of his group was on london's bond left. r t contributor richard matt has gave us his take on the live pretty patel, the home secretary in the united kingdom. you might recall just a few months ago. she tried giving journalists 14 years in prison if they published classified documents, which is, you know, totally not authoritarian, but guess what? she has more surprises for us. just recently, she declared hamas a terrorist organization. now this isn't just for people who are members of hamas.

you can go to prison even if you quote, express an opinion or belief that is supportive of hamas. whatever that means. frankly speaking, i don't think patel prescribed hamas, the terrorist organization because hamas constitutes a significant threat to the united kingdom. i think she's doing it because israel wants to do it. you have to remember pretty for tell was forced to resign from the british government just a few years ago because she was having secret meetings with these railways. now until now the united kingdom is only outlawed the military wing of hamis, but now the u. k. is banning the entire organization including the political wing. the thing is you're not just talking about some random group or organization you're talking about a political party. if to remember that hamas has been empowering garza since 2007, now the home secretary says that this step will strengthen the case against anyone who waves a hamas flag in the united kingdom. an act that is bound to make jewish people feel unsafe now has actually responded to pursue patel in a memorandum. they said that quote, hamas has emphasized more than once that his struggle is not against the jews or

judaism, rather against the occupier of our land. and those who carry out aggressions against our people. now at the same time, another thing pretty patel is trying to do is make it easier to strip people of their british citizenship. she stuck this draconian law inside the nationality and borders build, which is making its way through parliament at the moment. basically, if she can take away your citizenship without even telling you, if it isn't reasonably practicable to notify you again with his abstract terms, with this vague language. actually she doesn't even have to tell you at all if it's in the interests of national security, which is basically the textbook excuse every government gives when they're just about to do some shady authoritarian nonsense. so far they've only use this for terrorists and people who are guilty of very severe crimes, but that's how it always begins. once they've set this precedent and people just acquiesced to this than before. you know, the government is taking away citizenship from anyone. they don't like to why all

of this is going on in the u. k. at the same time and australia, australia is designated has bola terrorist organization has mala also has a political and a military wing. but of course, some western countries pretend that they can differentiate the 2 and they just proceed to ban the organization altogether. now the latest to do that is australia . karen andrews, the home affairs minister said that has bella quote, continues to threaten terrorist attacks and provide support to terrorist organizations and poses a real, incredible threat to australia. oh yeah. you remember that time has vala attacked australia? no. yet neither do i see this is the interesting thing here. this is part of a larger trend. why are all these countries in the west banning organizations? they have no connection to what those has been left to do with australia or the you with us. hm. i have to do with the united kingdom, have they attacked the united kingdom, germany, or whoever? no, because lebanon and palestine are on the other side of the planet. what does that teach you? he teaches you that in the west, the definition of what constitutes

a terrorist organization. it's not necessarily whether you actually posed a credible threat or whether israel likes you or not. well for its part, the other side of this is that the u. k. government said the decision was based on the activities of hamas, including rocket attacks against israel in may. this yet similarly accused the group of preparing terror attacks. well, that's how things are shaping up for now. remember r t dot com has got all those stories and much more detail and of course, many, many more. so check it out and see, see ah, ah, an old 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 beauty passed, signed up to when it entered the european union in 2004, today hungry is accused of all possible sins against democracy. now does the or

bank government feel about its future and place in the european family? oh, she agree, i sure don't want to get in front of your captain, your salon, your below reading label. i got to walk down, which desperate going to die. here for the 1st was to ruth or from fear tomorrow. even though you know, with e post a boy, she was stuck storm near police law, yet the law or yeah,

we could do a similar to what dr. mclean, you.
