ah, a round up all he biggest stories, all the past 7 days on all the very latest to full. this is the weekly here or not here by one. welcome to our program. well, getting us started this. our israel is closing its borders to all foreign nationals . for 2 weeks, has global panic spreads over new coven variant. dozens of countries have halted flights from southern africa, but the only constraint was 1st detected. in johannesburg, the restrictions have left to our passengers scrambling to get out. for many of them, it's already too late, though. the loss planes to europe on north america have already departed ahead of travel deadlines imposed by those governments. while flights to major connection hub. so thing paces like dough haul do by i'm single pool, have all been suspended. paula slim audio spoke with travelers out south africa's biggest up. i did because nothing is nothing i can do coming. yes. if it's not

getting anything done with spain, and i don't know when, when i can, i can fly to swing, we've checked on the air, france and the flight wasn't cancelled. i see you do you here. i'm see, i'm turn to quiet. see well with you. but everything, so would have been a buy a new ticket. so there's chaos, anxiety and confusion following the discovery of a new coven variant called ami crohn. that has turned the world upside down. people are rushing to the airport in a desperate attempt to get on any remaining flight. and in fact, the queue of people are lining up in front of a close ticket sales counter. they're hoping it will open and there might be a few seats that they can still get on. many of them a buttons 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, other european union and the main 2 destinations, had followed suit prices for flights and rapid pc. our tests are sky rocketing concur who is the founder and lead while in to of community circle home, south africa ads for the last year. been hoping travelers in and on south africa, navigate the regulations. she's been inundated with calls apart from people running out of money here. funds that they had so that they had thought that was going to cost them to be here. medical aids usually only cover you for a certain amount of time abroad for 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 they people trying to get their children home. the sense of loss is going to be felt because people are feeling like they're of really trapped. and they're becoming more and more frustrated and see more and more tears

. what i'm hoping is that governments can put measures in place, but 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 once. it is not clear where the very 1st 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 assessed. and is concerned about the damage. the bad will to both travel and business. for now the faith of people stranded f. s a port is unclear as well. struggled to deal with the new $300.00 foot south africa with so much

still unknown about the so called a micron virus. here at auto, we spoke to red diseases ex, but she brought over from george mason university. but cut on the warehouse also have chance to be region carry. that great question to solve right now for sand just is, was that a particular over at red in those the viruses of final with him or to dissuade and good be by mitchell evolution of the vital stores of the will up into more active stream even thought as it away from my original blueprint, so he would know how my chair, immunity from their current look since feed the when that meets the new version of corona why it was a want to chrome alls of since spike nic astrazeneca and also utterly roxanne us. fraser and medina, all of them, of where you see miller and jim, jim, but i should say, that was one thing richie has given me hold for spite ne cookson in particular. but

this because i've been, the widow vaccines produce a little bit, the water wide spread, them unity. it's not just on they bought is but a little bit more or if you sell it response and you fell, it is fonts is not zip the sensitive to the new mutation cells of rails. because a spike nick is a strongest outdoor for either. and then the vital work since and here and took him on the boat, johnson johnson and the astrazeneca and spiked come putting those 3 out of those that his us goodness is strongest. one. you have a chance that because that also have a stronger potential and that you felt a range. you might want to let the strong could drop in that amount of and they boy just knew that was a protection. we've also spoken to the head of the russian direct investment fund, which has overseen the global distribution of the sputnik v vaccine. he says, a range of different jobs is key to fighting the pandemic and new straits. i think

it's very important to investigate because in your very a so far student has shown to be incredibly effective against all the different mutations. and we will share some good data, hopefully a little bit later on a greater efficacy against delta very. and so when you were and of course, has to be started, and we need to see how the shunt is exists and mixing site games in your area, but also weekend really quickly about vaccine when you very and if needed. and we believe that different council report folio different like seats we see is a monopoly wolf. and we're in a vacuum in europe failed to protect europe. so it shouldn't be about emma, they monopoly. it should be about the board fully, all different, extreme technologist, including russian machines, chinese vaccines, other machines from britain, astrazeneca is very good, and all this report folio different vaccines, can countries themselves a renewed pandemic clamp town across much of western

europe has sparked wide spread straight on rust on places with police, however, the european union is distancing itself from the tough security response, saying that's purely a matter for national government. oh hm. with that since the european commission was not present at the scene of the riots, and it's not a police organization, it is not in the best position to comment on the actions of the police of the u 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.

wiley of this month, an anti locked down protest in a touch city of rotterdam. 51, no rests were made, and 3 people hospitalized after peace fight warning shots. similar themes to in the hague was southern arrests were made and over in austria, demonstrators were met with a heavy handed police response. you can see after the announcement of mandatory covert shots that have also been large scale marches across both france and belgium . and while the ear is refusing to condemn tough crowd control tactics in its own member states, when it comes to thoughts in other countries, it takes a very different view. the attention 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. trish to the people in hong kong, the support of europe in union toys now autonomy and fundamental freedom. we will

continue to stand by the people are hung below. russians have 30 into the streets. we smash protests and towards the valence are doing this piece will protest, us was shortened and unacceptable. we turn done this brutality and dispatched a full and transparent investigation. theodore's punish her. i would like to reiterate 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 is buffy form. and newspaper edison with a thinks of brussels used on human rights are riddled with contradictions. europe to european union, european commission was his fatherland. 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 or was the right one. so sanction,

sanction, be a mom. if you're just done, i'm african conversation countries, china and russia. of course, the arch villain. that is the whole standard because i was astonished to see your pin citizen to see that in that the way one of the most, the stickers are conscious. it western europe, the police, had to shoot with real bullets in the crowd. the press 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 time since the last world war that we have to police in west of you're shooting directly and people walking. there were some problems just often but, but not that much. so ok, 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. great. that there is a problem that obviously respond land should say something,

even if it's not aimed at the dutch government for rocks. now, it should be and at old government's asking for restraint. that's a minimum that she should say. such teams are watching to recover bodies from a siberian coal mine where an explosion on thursday led to the deaths of 51. people including 5 rescue us emergency crews have had to stop what several times due to high methane concentrations and fears of father bloss or the bodies of 5 minus have been found to various stages since saturday afternoon at 300 meters underground. that had been a moment of genuine hope earlier when a rescue who had been presumed dead, managed to get out. his survival was described as a miracle. he's now in stable condition hospital and described what happened. i feel better now that i'm getting all the necessary treatments 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 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. you have not met 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 spend 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 only bolstered by a 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 a 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 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. 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 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 is 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 the 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 bodies. relatives are still distraught and demanding more answers. dmitri powell, arts, he camera among the survivors of past days, explosion. dozens, of course injured. her list of their names is on display at the entrance key, the mine medic say they're making a strong recovery and are all in a stable condition. now let's take a look back at how the tragedy unfolded a. 6 50 day horrific mine. explosion inside period 8 30 am november the 25th. the mind with 285 people inside filled with smoke. after a methane explosion, a small enough with

9 am november 25th actuation and rescue work starts. reports of 1st casualties. authorities and now there is no contact with at least 37 people. a 5 pm november the 25th rescue operations suspended amid fears of possible explosion with 30 mine is still missing. rescue a se. 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 today. oh, no. i'm sorry. we're doing a deal with 3 15 pm,

november the 26th. a presumed dead rescue work came out on his own raising hope among desperate families of miners. it is not the 1st deadly accident in this mine . with another means said explosion, claiming 13 lives in 2004. 0 yeah. i understand just yesterday, alyssa was more to spawn. you was funny. i got reaction from disaster investigator arnold decks. he explained some of the difficulties facing such crazy. 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 very,

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, i'm trapped in areas with air which is still tenable. but on the other hand,

the very real risk that rescuers themselves may be injured or worse in their attempts to find them well, so a has a social media influence. se is furious back. class out the posting content of how johnny as a migrant planning to europe. story, i'm much more interested for a minute to danco and laugh with blue. ah, an old hungarian proverb says you can't put everything under one head. it means that the same rules can't be applied to every one. and yet this is what beauty pass 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?

ah, i mass kaiser with more of my guy to finance all survive. all. this is a hedge fund. it's a device used by professional galle wags to earn money. that's right. these hedge funds are completely not accountable, and we're just adding more and more to them. totally, the stabilizing global economy. you need to protect yourself and get inform wildcard report with ah, welcome back. now to protesters have been killed, hand close to 20, into it by the french army and nisha,

according to local officials. it occurred after a minute to convoy on route to another african nation. molly was blocked by a large scale 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'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 and try to stop the convoy this. this french convoy fred check presents in the area, has been unpopular with many people with some ethnicities. 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 reportedly 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 convoy because it landed in the ivory coast to support the french opperation in the area it is seen snaked its way up towards the north, towards molly and on the way it has said capital matter of incidents and broken, facile level multiple attempts, but by crowds in the thousands to stop these convoy voss convoy made up of more

than a 1000 vehicles. and then also they had the flood warning shots as well as tier 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 niger, intimately where friendship bases and fridge troops 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 reach out to the french defense ministry for comment. the reply that we received was that in sharon police and french officers had to fire warning shots after being subjected to a violent attack and stone throwing. they added that 7 front soldiers and employees were injured as a result of the assault. how have very different store and instagram influence or from chin as young has been slammed off the posting about ha, reported secret crossing to its the on a boat with migrants. well,

this right here is the video in question. according to italian reports, the social media creator arrived on the island of ram, producer. she claims severe social conditions in tune as they are forced her to seek asylum in the mediterranean nation. adding that the experience of the boat trip was terrible. the trip had sparked outrage online during a clandestine crossing on an irregular boat to museum influence publishes instagram stories and photos joyful and smiling. i leave the commons to you. we cannot allow easily it's laws in its borders to be marked in this way. a politician from italy that the league party, whom we spoke to also had some pretty strong, was a criticism for the blogger zamora, my yeah, love it. it's a real shame on people arriving in italy who do not need to come. people who are not hungry or 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. tunisia and 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 stock 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 sicilians who are experiencing a really difficult period on the back top as it is c, as one of the number of european nations experiencing such an asylum plains recently as well. relations between london and paris soured after the french present accused bars. johnson of failing to offer a solution to the cross channel crisis, and at the same time, the better as poland border mains pence to prompting the better option leader. in

fact, to visit one of the migrant centers, the mayor of lam pities of leaves europe must rethink how it tackles the problem. so, so listen closely. the solution is easy. europe cannot delegate the task of welcoming migrants to certain states. europe must assume its responsibilities more should be done, but the question is, why 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 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 sensors 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 on from the italian government, also indifference of good bye for this,

our coming away now though as well. the partner sit down with the hungarian foreign minister, they talk discord in the you and much, much more enjoy blue with . i saw a message from an unknown account because it had a self with my passport as its profile page. i saw pictures of my documents. it was, they also sent a credit contract. i had just 3 days comply with their demands. if i didn't send money i, they sent out an online campaign because i was supposed to be a very dangerous man. with

me. hello and welcome to wells fargo. and all kind of gary an adage says that you can put everything under one had meaning that the same rules can be applied to everyone or everything. and again, this is exactly what put up as sign out to want to join the european union in 2004, quickly becoming europe's favorite. prodigal son accused over the years of all possible sins against democracy. how does the organ government feel about its place and future in the european family? all to discuss that i'm now joined by hand. grace, minister of foreign affairs and trade dirty. i think it sounds great to see you

again. thank you very much for the time. now you heard me referring to that folk wisdom about not putting everything under one hat, but i know that there is another saying in beacon gary language is kind of an advice about stretching only as far as your blanket goes. i think the hungarian blank is to say it goes pretty far these days are for some guests in russia you have a solid relationship with china and many other countries where it says that in the european union, your home, your family, your country is still treated a little bit like on foreign terrible. why do you think that a little bit? you know, there's a big debate in the european union now. how you should look like in the future. and i think that the find that the debate is out there should be considered as natural because the european union has been confronted with many challenges basically single thing. yes. so obviously on the current.
