are an extremely ria show of descent with many here reaching their limits. along the, for the neighboring loyal to you, i think everyone has their own demands in this matter. logo you, i think it's good for the environment of the whole country to have such a space for discussion. ha, rallies and solidarity with china's demonstrations have now spread around the world . large crowds gathered outside the embassy in london. and here in tokyo, calling for an end to china's strict coven restrictions. but chinese authorities are refusing to change course. you know, we believe that with leadership and the support of the chinese people are fight against coven 19 will be successful. the way there has been a slight easing of restrictions in the western city of food and cheese were a deadly apartment fire. last week, sparks much of the recent and reast. some residents who have been confined to the homes for months can travel on local buses from tuesday, some small relief, but far from the into the government. 0 cove and policy that so many are demanding under small of the german martial fund told me that such protests are unusual. they're very much exceptional. i think people have said the scale and breadth of these protests is something that we haven't seen for decades. we've. we've seen kind of isolated cobit process and we see lots of local protests over specific issues. but this kind of uniting around a fairly common cause and the direct calls directed at the central leadership. and that you can think himself is not something we've seen. so what's behind with china? of course, as this is down to foreign agitation, but what moves so many people to take to the streets in certain, in such numbers, in such a repressive regime? well, the coven control measures have now been in place for such an extended period of time. and for, for the 1st considerable phase of this, i think there was a high level of understanding that this was necessary. and now what people are seeing, and if some are pointed to the world, carp seems of mosque, less people, more just from the advanced economies, but from, from other parts of the developing world. but broadly speaking, people are aware that the rest of the world has returned to normality. and the question is, why is this not happened in china? and there are 2 explanations for one is that the government must be incompetent in failing to put the measures in place with vaccines. and the health care system to enable a sort of reopening to be possible. or the other one is that they like to maintain the level of societal control that the 0 covey policies exemplify and, and, and enable them to maintain. and neither of these things are all situations that people are willing to put up with for years on end. and after the party congress, i think the sense that took place recently, i think the people have been looking for some hope that these policies might be reversed. but the chinese government still isn't even in a position to do that. given the poor vaccination levels. the of the unwillingness to roll these out with foreign m r n a vaccines boat. they're not even in a position if the pressure is maintained to really push back on the 0 over policies without having a tremendous effect on the health of the elderly chinese. so i think the census is a bit of despair at the moment at people being locked down for years on end, and extremely capricious circumstances and seeing their way out of it. though we have seen some restrictions been east, there's been a modest easing of these restrictions, but we've, we've seen kind of which one also sees in the way the international markets respond . these kind of flashes of hope. but the fundamentals are still, that you do not have the vaccination levels in the elderly population in china that mean that they can be confident to move ahead with anything that approaches a kind of real relaxation of 0 hope it policies and all the infection rates are so high and have been rising, so they're not in a position to do that without projected levels of deaths that go into the hundreds of thousands, even into the millions of people as, as things stand. so that they will probably try to pull back a little bit on the, the most repressive of the policies that they pursued. the kind of barricading people in that homes and, and the sorts of things that people are pushing back against my family. but the fundamentals of the policy, they're still stuck with for a little while to come. that's very clear. thank you so much for joining us. and i mean, not to for sandra small from the german 4 credit present flow news. and then he has warranties country to prepare for a new wave of russian air strikes, declaring that as long as moscow has missed files, it will not rest. last weeks, intense russian rocket strikes course, the most damaging power since the war began. millions have been without electricity and heat though foresight, power, water supply in the capitol have now been restored. corresponding nick connelly is in cave and told me how people are dealing with the actors. stephanie tough, you might be able to see behind me quite how few lights are on here in cable though . this is, the system has been stabilized since there's a text last week. and it definitely feels like everyone now is an expert on generators. you can't get any diesel generators or either here or in europe. they are all sold out to people having to move to less efficient petrol generators. people talking about the power banks, different ways of kind of making the best of a few hours a day. they do have access to means power, but people are thinking about whether it's maybe a better idea to move out of the city from their kind of high rise apartments to their weekend houses. rural kind of cottages, places where you can heat with wood or other things that you can kind of organize yourself without being dependent on a complex system. and there is, as you mentioned there, that fear of further russian attacks. it feels like every time the russians attack with those missiles that it takes a little longer for the system to kind of recalibrate itself. but there is no panic . yeah, i think the most important thing is that people more less have access to mobile networks can communicate. and i think that's been my kind of most lasting impression is that when the power goes out and the mobile phone must stop working, that's when people get a bit nervous. they can't find out how their family doing what to expect. as long as that's around, people somehow make the best of it. what about places like said nick connelly in case we'll take a look at some more stories making news around the world will start in hawaii where the world's largest active volcano mount a lower on the big island. disrupting for the 1st time in nearly 4 decades. the u. s. geological survey says larva has begun moving down the mountain. it's impossible to predict, so whether it might flow into populated areas. police forces in 6 countries have brought down an international cocaine ring. almost 50 people have been arrested in europe and the united arab emirates, and around 30 tons of drugs have been seized. at least 15 people have been killed in a land sliding camera. victims were attending a funeral in the capitol yonder rescue teams asserting for survivors with doesn't still missing. the governor says the area is dangerous and he's wanting people to leave. that is somalia, where security forces say they have ended an hours long siege by al qaeda linked insurgents. at least 8 civilians were killed as out about militant storm. villa rose hotel in the capitol, mogadishu as a venue often frequented by government officials. authorities say they rescued 60 people and not a member of the security forces died in the attack securities just one of the threats of facing somalia. another is food security, which is being made worse by the conflict in ukraine and by droughts cause by climate change of the population needs food aid, but it's being blocked by the algebra militants. ah, this is my door in south and somalia. hundreds of thousands of people are taking refuge here, displaced by the drought and the extremist mayor of july alley. what seen in the security forces trying to keep our ship up outside the city that the group is only 30 kilometers away? am. are we on high alert? day and night to avoid getting ambushed daily patrols. give the people a sense of safety. asha bob was in control here until 2012. when the government re captured, the city asa was became one of the connie. this is that so maria, her face for the last 50 years unblocked suffered a lot. what now? and he will actually hope local militias playing a supportive role to here and there, hide out this group plans then next offensive against arshebra up there. leader is a former member who wants to remain anonymous. the lead on the they miss. yeah. when i joined in 2007, they had control of the country. there was a lot of unemployment and no opportunities, elijah. he says that after a few years as a fighter, his job was to extort money from farmers and shop owners. but after almost a decade of witnessing torture and public executions, he changed his mind. and sir, honey, i realised they did not want to establish a government or rule of law. bloodshed became normal it and he managed to flee, but had to leave his family behind. his wife was fools to get married to an arch about fighter. and his son will soon be recruited to become one. he feared they are among the almost 1000000 people estimated by the un to be under the control of our ship up suffering the effects of drought, but cut off from much needed food. 8 aah! and the football well cupping katara the group b, clash between cameroon and sherbie are turned into a goal fast. but each side still had to settle for just the one point camera and took the lead after 29 minutes. it was the 1st goal at the tournament. it was also a 1st for serbia when they equalized just before the break and they were done yet just a minute later there turned the game on its head to one serbia at half time. after the break, serbia stayed in control of the game. alexander mitrovica with a 7th gold in the last 6 games for his country. but cameroon wouldn't surrender and showed their fighting spirit. a beautiful chip from vincent abaca got them within a gold around the one hour mark. and just 3 minutes later via munich strike eric maxime chopper meting with the easy tap in for cameroon. 33. the final score. a result that keeps both countries world cup, hopes alive, oily matches or plenty of goals including garnish, that type match against south korea. the west africans got off to a fast start taking an early tune, a l

and also one, b, b. c. journalist, got arrested, not only detained. he was also beaten down. it's really a new law and how the, you know, security apparatus treats foreign correspondents here. and i think the difference is that in shanghai, some processes opened, the demanded shooting pink to step down. he and been doing the demonstrators were more cautious. they made it. they also made very critical slogans. for example, the country belongs to the people, not to the party, etc. but they did not specify specifically criticize seating thing, but definitely the leadership should be worried because in the previous years, of course we had a protest here and there, but they were always localized. for example, labor protest or student protest. now we have a broad distance that, you know, has spread to all over the country. basically, it's very risky, of course, to do these kind of protests what kind of repercussions are the protesters facing what you could get arrested and really quite easily in the previous months. we seen, especially during the pandemic that you know, even critic

b, b. c, reporters. his cameraman was killed in bosnia to bosnia. he used to say since i returned to london whenever i walk in a hard line, i looked down for fear of stepping on a mine. lynette. here was full of i, edith this area go back a little bit. is he? i eighty's. i said we're using these says i eve i me 20th 2017. we been targeted by one of those ideas, accompanied by a group of journalists from i'm up to a new for who wanted to interview the fighters, coming back from to frontline, were into the building near this strategy, tap go down to the failure. i had walked into the same building just after the down was liberated from icims. at that time when i stepped into the building, some one shouted my name and wall me to come out. as there was a risk of explosion, 2 weeks later the assume the building was safe. sadly was not. ah, i took a few photos which was seen so gone to the call hi managed to do so. ah, we lost at one hand the alley, one of the fighters who stepped on an id in almost the same spot, or was a standing to a big 30. ah, good a call. and so thinking that if we were not there, he would not walking to that building. so if the school and then i have that feeling solely, i'm not there. first. all the last john ali's who has heard such a traumatic experience beyond many, some have lost their lives. some have been injured on maine, and some have survived with no physical injuries, but sales suffer the trauma that has changed them forever. so land mine is different because land mine isn't so a factory would build it, i would say, but in the water vices or. and also before there was i called r e d, but i have never seen it in my life. and so i was involved in some phone line stories as a fixer and we kind of so the devices in, in real life, let's say, recently 2017 i was, i was in mosul and then as well for 2 weeks were embedded in with a special force and it was that as well, another time i saw the impact of id on people on civilians. there was one when explosion that happened near by our, our place that was where, where, where they were basing with the iraqi forces. and this, the family came and the whole family where basically they were kind of, they were traumatized and there was blood on them. and the guy lost his, he was the corner. he was just laying down. i remember there was a friends, a woman, a journalist, he knew how to wake him up. basically. that was an experience that i will never forget because a couple months ago she died in, in the explosion in was over with the 2 other friends gentlemen. and one iraqi fix her bill. she was very used to military hills. she was like 50 years old. i mean there was and i remember because there was some guy injured at that time and she was like a nurse and military. no she, she, she knew she was from someone special. it was we sang ya if you want to quote this song that we went to the place that the accident happened. the place were to friend, general son. the friend of 1st is called got killed the white i an id. so here like i'm in the humid but here everyone like goes through it and now we will, keller, where they die. the here was full of piety. actually, our families were coming like this way. she was appearing from time to time. think i'm, i have a good story or you can hear on the field and then she disappeared for years and i don't know. but above that time, she called me jessica, who i have something very big too for you. i want to go back to the field. i want to go back to journalism. i read an article in the fia who was above the french. lou is special forces where am and train to where the leased and trying to catch the french her gdc in was school and i call them all and i feel listen, i want the story is very interesting and she had the feet with the regular army and another 5th with the french military to be honest. so i said maybe you can manage to do that, sorry for us and find that he's then go and get that and she, okay, i'm gonna try and there. and that's why she left. ah, it didn't explode. yesterday it doesn't mean like it will not split today. so in terms of ideas, what they were doing is putting fished lines. you know, we had to be so careful when we were like, walking the serious. but now the syria looks like people were here. see like you can wall like is consist, steps off coupon with she started the story. it was not so easy because the erect military, well not so cooperative on that. french, the, the french stories inside. so she remain the long time in the bill and that's where she met back. and then she, she called me on the friday night and she said lisa and i have found the tv. so i'm going to stay and i say the, oh you the not going to thing for us. i mean, it should be clear, be with us at the local to us. we are, we don't, we are not going to process from the story and, and she could, but we were friends on such a day. she called me again and she say, you know, i'm going to make that one is she's in laws can then i'm waiting for the guy was going to be the camera and i say, okay, she was still very excited about it. i'm sorry, like that. i'm actually going to read if you make that, i'm happy for you. if you are happy and so we are the spoke on the saturday, but she didn't tell me it's going to be fun because i knew him very well. and he was with friends for a long time and then she left and they thought that on the monday morning in this area, these journal, they died somewhere in here. everything you can see here it was an id like especially the new wires in the middle of this streets in like this, like in the middle like something. there was new wires. those wires in the like, there were so weird. and also for example, bottles and anything unique here was an id just like when so some of them and like everything was made by hand to ice is used the color and that is used in general like to, to clean the water for civilians. but they stole all of it, 6 months war chlorine and they made bombs with it to kill journalists, soldiers, whoever's booking in the, in the city, my 1st experience speed idea was in 2015. when i went to kamani, ignore their senior. only a few weeks after was liberated i was shocked to see all doors, handmade ideas, and the little hand on proper tunes. the locals had a clearing button. i made samarnie and local bomb diffuser. we explained the different types of ideas to move over from what it did them, that when you call this number, it rings up, shut with that ringing, produces sound waves, which create pressure and caused detonation. welcome on it for the deck with this can be used to detonate bonds remotely, that we actually can. we were dealing with the law says, you know, they want this type of bomb is often found on iron suicide bombers. when they use it to commit suicide and kill those around them, pushing the loop it came in. and what this is a chemical weaponry is one of those, you know, more on them on the check. they're put together in city one and in homes renew shortly. they burn and blind cable one and i begin and we found hundreds of these things. sudden my heart does really so calmer and said without a lot of them to do 3 years on i've been back to co bonnie, to talk to must suffer a low call journalist and a fixer to let me recall. i experienced feet. i told them join that is to be like they're like, i mean they like a guy pulled the money out of the with okay, the way of him is them one. my name is the money i am part of the i say you security organization in co, bonnie do obscure. this is where like here, a village about 20 kilometers, east of kamani kenton were informed they were id up and really ah ah fanny, it could still be dangerous with okay, thanks guys for leaving me alone here with that. when the, when the this the money, the guy, your flat, those you went to a mine, i knew and like following to, i mean to see them here like me to be closed from him in a moment that the fire like came. i would like from the my thought is that matter of the moment, i mean that he will be alive or he would be dead that day. come on, you saved a lie, but acting quickly. but sadly, a few months later, he lost his life while diffusing ideas in another village and i i use the landlines. i consent to the mind of doing consequences of these was long after the fighting we have some line failed be been late before iraqi and on the conflict. and during a year and on and iraq lay minds, we didn't finish that. the iraqi army forces been attacked by u. s. army. and we have out of line between all they're called the chart and stan parts and iraqi part. it to probably be see something very decisive was happening in the middle east because the us and britain were going into direct war with he wrong. well, i don't, i'm sure that in 2030 the reporters and generally says, came to cauldron sand or flooded into coolness. and i can see to, to cover the news of fir, toppling their iraqi regime down by their coalition forces lead bay. there you is. ah, that time was so short that their man, action, or authorities, did not think of a giving lectures and doing my in awareness among the reporters because of the lack of that awareness. many people were victims of minor accident and of course, among them, reporters. and for token of like our lives on union for the gentleman's documentary maker, who had a great influence on my work and many was sadly under the reach of my 15 years after the tragic accident i tracked down, you seem to find out why they ran to key fi and how much they remember from that day or the last 15 years, the memory faded a little bit, but do you remember april, the 2nd, 2003? very well. i was interviewed in one of the hotels in solomon ia because the most of the journalist for based on hotels and they didn't have offices. so i remember it was in the lobby where i met jim, you were going to down to kit for this place on the line near the line between the kurdish forces and the government, iraqi government forces. and he was just so happy about, you know, nig washed his hair and he looked good and we stopped. and we had a picnic and he said things like, you know, i'm a war journalist. i'm only happy when i'm in war and they said, yeah, when i'm in situations like this, i feel like i may the store being the driver's traditional force missed the call. we were in, in the mindful with a big smile on his face. full of life full of happiness just as kobe was. so it's a happy picture from that point of view. but he saw there was that picture because we didn't know what was going to happen just a couple of hours later. this is one consolation that we can say some, some an awful tragic day is that i hope covered doing what he loved. and maybe if i didn't have the picture, then i would not realize that 100 percent sure that this is the area. so most role least was here. i don't know, i have a feeling that it was here. somebody's in the streets has grown, at least maybe i grew up as well with them. but the trees, i recall they were the same size 15 years ago. we went to kid free, we talk to the special commander there, the p u k. in the town of get free and we went on the roof to and he explained to know the positions and so on. and i said, well, can we go there? because we wanted the position to do life things with a good background. you know? so you said, yeah, sure, i thought the safety said yes. and i said, can you give us a guidance? said yes, you gave the pressure margaret to come with a cover was sitting in the front and she worked was behind the cover and the fish market guide was behind jim. you and i was in the back seat in the middle. and as we approach the position, i was just gonna go up to the position and stop the below the hill, but the patch, moga guy said no, put it down the left where there was a kind of deck, you know, with graphing stuff. he said go down there because you know, maybe they can see you from where they are. you know, 10 kilometers. well thought the bit unlikely. but anyway we, i followed the indications and i stepped out of the vehicle planning to go and get my equipment down in the back of the g. and immediately there was a back he and we also were being shelled by motor because at least 2 times in the previous days we had been shuttled sofa. so without thinking was working shell again, you know. and the mocha guy jumped out and run back up the road we came shouting, how and how and the motor. and i looked i could see that part of my heel. it being blown away. i ran around to the back of the car and threw myself on the ground, but the lights were being shelled. you know, if i knew my job, i wasn't going to throw myself on the ground called a shell. so he jumped out. he was a very false runner. he wasn't private school running. he jumped out and ran down down further down the hill into the mine field because we were in the mine field. and he stepped on one month and fell on another one. so 2 more explosions. you know, those dust and a lot of noise, you know, they're so new to every movement i made. if i tried to roll under the vehicle, there could be in my left ice where the mines were. when it sort of the dust started settling, i got through it into the back of the car because he was right beside me with a loan off. so i got him in the back and it was up and he was okay. that i said where it was called a when, where his cover i didn't know that i am outside of the car. i left the car and we were looking for carpet ravine, the translator, the kurdish guy who is still in the back because he was in the middle, young had time to get out. this will happened in 23 2nd. you know, he said, call he's over there. so i had the dilemma because now when you as a minefield, you know how you get the body maybe 20 minutes away. in a mind that the classic situation, when you go to the, the courses where you study what to do in battlefield, they tell you don't move the know, but cover with my friend i couldn't abandon. so in the beginning, i had that idea that now i know that was that stupid idea to bring the metal boxes that we had and throw it on the ground in hope that if there is a mind that the law and the boxes equipment cases and i thought if i sort of threw them they would make mines explode. that might not hit me. so i but that was stupid thing really upset me and i just walked over to where he was putting my feet where i could see he had been, you know, got him and tracked him back to the car, put them in by the time he was in the car was definitely dead because robin felt his health and he had gone on in my early thirties going about my job the next minute on an entity. but the land mines that killed kobe. and the engine made, they went to targeting as we just were in the wrong place on time. me if you ask me, i would blame the fact to who made that mine. i would blame the regime who decided to put the mine over the smuggler. all the legal entity who purchased that my inform, the manufacturing country, brought it to iraq. i blamed the person who put the and i blend and lot of people, it's a chain we were aware of it. yes. because where you go, you'd see little triangular signs thing minds and things. there was nothing there. we had been told by the fashion mobic mom that it was safe and we had a guy to guide to just into the field they didn't ah, 16 years ago you left that money to be as well as hard as if you thought does it feel to go back actually, to be honest, i went back a few times in different occasions, was, believe it or not, i maybe i build that wall. what of never not, never. when i went back to confirm, i never went back to the same side or never tried to recall that memory. it's the 1st time to go with the intention of having that recalled again, the show for less thanks to come in. how are you? i'm are being but i can tell you the proven rosa. tell us i can remember so many of you. do you remember me? no, i'm afraid. i haven't had the pleasure of meeting you before. i didn't recognize you at 1st either. we were only together briefly. i was working with a b, b, c team. when we drove to the location, i was sitting next to you in the car and you start to look for you, the interpreter. don't you remember the accident of alarm? i remember every detail. sure. let me tell you what happened. how many explosions were there? contacting? 3 was a 3. yes it was 3. the men next to me, last leg and i got him back in the car. then 2 minds exploded, close to cover. one right off to the other. it sounded like one explosion, but they were too old on that. don't you remember? didn't. they said that i don't remember that you were there that i was there. and he was doubtful that i was the trunk lid of the time. i later was sign with him, both p, i double re, we stopped here and i said up with, let's go on the 1st attic because there was a path here. when i said we should leave the car and walk into god. lemme it would be better without the car. hm. the way was so short on her new amana to go gotta another reason. it wasn't safe with the car was because bapti

working backwards, it's a very good evidence to those previous events, like i think 17, which is b, b c. s. for today. i'm here in europe this, these events were sage matter from, from washington and london. but looking back, looking person and forward, it tells you that states is but with a war, mr. so that's good. and then we'll go and they both statements to mrs. suttonberg or washington, that yes, lessons are to blame of me because we're there raging. the behind the scenes. we're very sure. but there are very right words, because let's get for trying to pull nato into a war with russia. well, that's a little because it doesn't wanna sacrifice or isn't the lives of its own soldiers . it would run the preferred to fight this war through the lives of the ukrainians . now, i agree with you totally that this is quite an extraordinary and event, and i was particularly surprised by and then one of the articles in the financial times which i expressed are undecided. anonymous diplomat from a native country in key that directly accused is the land scale flying and saying that it was more dis

attention in this tweets you can clearly see a ukrainian soldier displaying a swastika on his rock sock b. b. c is also featured a soldier wearing the notorious s as not c logo. also a photos of the cranium with swastikas of early appeared on the reuters article. well, let's discuss this with janish pitt conan finish, chief at its of the m p. nancy media outlet. many thanks for joining us on. the program is so nice to have you one, so ukrainian. how about battalion member who openly uses ne symbol is now lecturing the american children? well, in a circuit, all of us media will still reaction to all this no 11 again show of shocking. oh, god forbid to to justify gate of the crimes of the, the reason policies. i come to my mind from somewhere the, these eco terrorists who are having a lectures around the european schools above climate change. and now we are seeing nazi's lecturing in the european or the western schools about, glorifying naziism. that's i think, a step forward where and somewhere should be the border. and i think that some kind of red line as being grocery in this case, of what he

the b, b. c, for example, has also featured a soldier wearing and torres as, as not the logo. wall western media has now changed its tune towards the as a battalion. they didn't manage to hide their proud display of neo, not the chat to the notorious crimes of ukraine's, as our battalion was, one of the reasons behind russia's draft un resolution to condemn the glorification of naziism. the majority of the un general assembly supported russia with $105.00 countries, voting in favor and $52.00 voting against it, including the us, the chief editor of the finish. and the news outlet says the numbers reflect the willingness of the west to tolerate the glorification of naziism. i think the general problem here is that the western, i'm only to go use them, doesn't want to recognize the difference between the battery is anthem, nationalistic, now we are seeing nazi's lecturing in the european or the western schools about, glorifying naziism. that's i think a step forward where and somewhere should be th

after he denounced the arrest of a b, b. c. journalist in china, they also highlighted a new law, passed this year, granting police in england and wales. more power to restrict protests deemed unacceptable. media, freedom and freedom to protest must be respected. no countries exempt. the rest of the busy journalist, edward laurence in china, is deeply disturbing. journalists must be able to do their job without intimidation . i assume you've actually read the police and crime bill of 2022, james. you know the bill brought in by your government. hello. have you read the repressive laws you tories have passed in the u. k. lately, you can now be arrested and jailed if police even suspect will protest. don't like our banners find. we've shed info on social media about a protest tore britain welcome to north korea or on temps. for emmy p and author godfrey bloom is concerned about the lack of coverage jolena sanchez being given in the u. k. media. wow, you know, that's really quite astonishing. he's not being covered here, a tool i

national security adviser under, from just over a little over a week ago, setting a broadcast and b b. c version that the only is, is the escalation increasing, but the opposition is arming itself and arms are blowing in for iraqi could the son, iraqi heard the son of course, was helped by the us to be sort of autonomy zone when sedan was empower and then later was one of the main regents that help in the war in iraq. so ultimately, what we are seeing here is a former advisor, openly stating that arms are flowing in. you was at the top. he knows the intelligence they are. they have people that they support them, which i had out a terrorist organization, headquarters, albania, within the borders of europe, is a terrorist organization that is trying to overthrow the iranian government that the u. s. supports and you have this entire network. absolutely. they're trying to pressure up peaceful demonstrations. ok. they've happened before and they will continue to happen. i'm sure small scale, but this arm is this in this, i'm a fighting that we're seeing. there's a fire bombing and the shooti

b, b. c journalist being arrested while protest is chante for his release. the baby ceases. he was assaulted before being fried. chinese authorities say he didn't properly identify himself. the proteus are an extremely re, a show of descent with many here reaching the limits. ballade, they're pretty neighbor and loyal to you. i think everyone has their own demands in this matter. logo you and i think it's good for the environment of the whole country to have such a space for discussion. rallies and solidarity with china's demonstrations have now sprayed around the world. large crowds gathered outside the embassy in london. and here in tokyo, calling for an end to china, strict cove and restrictions. but chinese authorities are refusing to change course. you know, we believe that with leadership and the support of the chinese people are fight against coven 19 will be successful. the way there has been a slight easing of restrictions in the western city of odom. she, we are a deadly apartment fire last week sparked much of the recent and wrist. some residents have been confined to their homes for months. can travel on local buses from tuesday, some small relief, but far from the in to the governments 0 cove and policy that so many are demanding jewelers probably in crunch more is in b g t has more on what is happening on the ground. yeah, today, i mean it's really, it seems calm he also engaging and where are several hundreds, if not thousands of protesters together last night. but still, you see a lot of proof, police not only in uniforms awesome plainclothes and you know, it could snap any time. and it's really to a tense atmosphere. and me as a journalist, i was immediately kicked out of the protest site. and just by standing there when they identified me as a journalist, am, so let's see how it will develop it. i mean, in shanghai, what the authorities did, they basically fenced of all the square se, fenced off and several streets. but i mean, yeah that's, that's of course, intimidating. and yeah, we know that there have been several arrests, but i mean, what they cannot do is, you know, to, to change the attitude. they were already so many protests us out there last night and they achieved it. they did it, and many people saw it and they spread from word to wo

the state own news network al jazeera modeled on the b, b. c, has been something of a revolution for the arab world. it was the 1st arabic broadcaster to air, not just miss spokesman, but alternative views as well. the opening of western universities is also part of cutters. modernization plan. i've come to the renowned american georgetown university in doha. here i meet gad, none among a professor of international relations and golf studies. he's lived and worked here for more than a decade and as well acquainted with cutters political vision. while staging the world cup in the desert seems absurd to many. he says, for the categories, it makes perfect sense. the basic idea was always that this will break. going to bring visibility. emma, in a measure of soft power a by persuading the will that aid caught out as little just about camels in san oil . but also the key aimed was that to make this part of their developmental strategy strategy for long term development. so the world cup was one of those things are fits in that strategy. so it's both

b. b. c, has been something of a revolution for the arab world. it was the 1st arabic broadcaster to air, not just miss spokesman, but alternative views as well. the opening of western universities is also part of katara modernization plan. i've come to the renowned american georgetown university in doha. here i meet gad, none among a professor of international relations and golf studies. he's lived and worked here for more than a decade and is well acquainted with cutters, political vision. while staging the world cup in the desert seems absurd to many. he says for the categories, it makes perfect sense. the basic idea was always that this will break, going to bring visibility him in a measure of soft power a by persuading the will that a cut out is little just about camels and sound oil. but also the key aimed was to make this part of their developmental strategy strategy for long term development. so the world cup was one of those things are fits in that strategy. so it's both a question about visibility and you can a long term economic development. that development is visible everywhere. areas that we're just desert back in the 1980s, now boasts skyscrapers office towers and luxury hotels. the futuristic skyline has all developed in the last 30 years. society has also changed and not all categories are happy about it. some parts of society, this is going very fast. notice some people have felt very uncomfortable with literally, everything is changing to generations. but again, the top of the ruling family had been on the one hand very clear where they wanted to go, which is modernized without losing authenticity and identity. but on the other hand, they've implemented it in ways that try to bring in the to, to bring a consensus. although some people are unhappy cutters in years have one over many with state benefits that are 2nd to none. category. citizens receive generous allowances and salaries, education, and excellent healthcare are all provided for free, and there are no taxes. i've arranged to meet maria again, the fan leader from argentina. she's lived in doha for 8 years and works for a company that helps south american businesses who are looking to gain a foothold and caught our. she says argentinians both here and back home are very excited about the world cup. right now we are over $6700.00 that we are at and even hearing of that. and we are expecting more about it more than $70000.00. will you say to the us in tina fence when they come over 1st? if they can read the read or if they come via that we some one that is leaving here, it's nice to know if either by the quarter it's different or to our concert. of course, we have like a dress code here and got that on. you said cover your folder underneath, but it's not everywhere. if you see here, we at that we are in the cornish you as a man or woman with sports or and then well, of course that go home that they will not be able to buy them for market, but they will, they can drink beer or any uncle drink in bards or, or pumps and even the fun songs in some of them they will find. so i think they fight and do you think they could do problems with unmarried couples? no, she hadn't got no one. ask you about anything. like if, if i want to go to, well, i'm not ready, but if i want to go to a hotel, i'm book a room with a friend. i can do it, they will not. they will not request my research as where the work i am so that they will not requesting foreign tourists may not face such questions, but it could tarry. woman certainly would sexual relations outside of marriage or band for women. if an unmarried woman gets pregnant, she will not only be ostracized, she's likely to end up in prison, and she can't access medical care either. if old goes to check on that on pregnancy issues and so on, you have to be married. so that's true. that study is absent through and so that's problematic. and if you, if you deliver a baby and you have that again, you can be if, if you aren't married, she can't show you're married, then you're in trouble. and these are things that are, that are problematic. and that stem really from a consumer society, they're still in large pot, pretty conservative about these kinds of moral gender questions and so on. and this isn't dr. strew forgot to the woman. this is true for anybody. so that's why you have to get the stories about sometimes domestic stuff that have a relationship or whatever and, and, and they, they're in trouble of them. it's not as if they're going to get to mistreated, but they will often be arrested and have to be detained. women are 2nd class citizens in katara and subject to their male relatives. they're not free to make decisions about their own lives. whether they want to marry, study, work or travel. they're dependent on the goodwill of their father, husband, or brother, but also limitations. the official limitations on travel under a certain age you have to have permission from a male figure of the policy in the family. if you are a country when you marry a non custody than your children or they will not get all the benefits of a country, citizenship francis. so whereas if you're a country baton, you might have for women than your children will have citizenship and all these things. so these are the sorts of things that, that you find a lot of young catherine room and then just young agitating about public it's also a subject of debate in education city, a vast campus linked by tram that includes satellite institute of renown, u. s. french and british universities, 70 percent of the students in doha, are women. unlike the men most wouldn't be allowed to study abroad. there's growing opposition here to the practice of male guardianship over women. and the fact that category men can still have 4 wives at the same time. the former emir, for example, has 3 wives and 27 children. but not a single category woman was willing or perhaps allowed to speak to us on camera. ah, i've come to carters national museum, which boasts impressive architecture. it takes visitors on a journey through the history of the small desert state. until the 19th thirty's, the pearl trade was caught our biggest source of income. britain's queen elizabeth was later given a pearl necklace. when she visited katara, the decline of the pearl industry was followed by a period in the 1940s known as the years of hunger. but in the 1950s cut her began producing oil on a significant scale. then in the 1970s, the world's largest natural gas field was discovered most of it in carters territorial waters. and from the mid nineties cut her began selling liquefied natural gas all over the world. it was the income from that gas that financed katara is unprecedented. modernization drive under the leadership of then emir, hama, been khalifa attorney. he was also the one in 2010 who saw caught her, awarded hosting rights for the world cup. his son, the current emir tommy been homage attorney has continued his policies. but he came under pressure when rival arab stayed slapped a blockade on caught our that lasted several years or more to safeguard that sovereignty cut our has excelled in networking and become an international mediator. dollhouse sheraton hotel has served repeatedly as a venue for talks between various warring parties from the us to the taliban cutter has made its foreign policy as broad as possible. the strategy is, 1st of all, complete pragmatism was no ideological element to this. it's been a decision right from the beginning from let's see, the early ninety's onwards. when she hammered the call on the father and the father of the current and he has set out to secure us visibility and security. anchored, of course, in the prime security guard and told the united states who they gave is huge ad base dade abby's. so they became very useful for the us who want when they want to talk to iran very useful to the u. s. also, and they wanted to some place to connect to send messages to, to have ultimately conversations with the taliban. so got that and responses says fine. they can come and set up an office here and you guys could meet each other. each week men flocked to the national ground mosque for friday prayers. the emir also praise here accessing the building via his own underground entrance. most categories are well hobbies, followers of a particularly conservative form of islam. both private groups and government organizations have provided lavish donations to promote conservative as long in other countries also in europe, which has caused considerable tensions. but there is evidence that katara is scaling back its activities. ah, some of that money went not just to mosques and so on. and don g breaches bought to basically yardi types in the, around the world. and so the cutter is because the government clearly saw this is not something that they wanted and they've been cracking down very hard on that with new laws and very stringent controls, to the extent that any, even any kind of very innocent charitable collection. you actually have to clear with a government trust next i want to try out door, has new metro, like many infrastructure projects. it was built as part of the preparations for the world cup. all the stations and trains have good air conditioning, a necessity and carter. because of the heat and because gasoline is dirt cheap here, most got tories go everywhere by car. public transport still needs to catch on more widely metal on what other countries is a very new concept in gulf region. and we plan on integrating the metal into the daily lives, all the residents, all these and all that. so it is a challenge, but i believe we also cd we have floods. we have implemented some funds to integrate all the, all the rosin as usual. another official is present during our interview. whether to provide support or to monitor the conversation is unclear. we continue to get stopped regularly by police and security officials who question us, scan our passports and compare them with databases. the authorities here are very suspicious of journalists, like every one arriving and caught our we were required to download a covert app on our cell phones at the airport. this means we can be tracked at all times and our phones monitored. building work is underway all over doha. hotter owes a lot to migrant workers, many of whom are poorly paid and not well treated. but under international pressure, some things do appear to have improved this building houses, the office of the international labor organization in 2018 cut are opened its doors to the iowa and began cooperating with labor law experts. the ilo says reports that more than 6000 workers have died while building world cup. then use our false 6500 is total number of south asian national, who died in car over a 10 year period. it doesn't distinguish between whether the, the work related death or non work related. it doesn't even distinguish between the people, workers or non economically active people. we commissioned our own work, our own people were to collect data from different hospitals, emergency departments cetera, to come up, the more accurate figure on work related injuries, invest. and in that we saw that there were 50 work related death in 202500 6 severe injuries. and 37000 mild and moderate injuries. safety standards have since improved. the ban on working in the heat has been expanded and a minimum wage introduced the notorious car follow program, which gave employers complete control over their workers has been scaled back. but these improvements are not being applied everywhere. the new laws need to be enforced. poor working conditions, harm katara, reputation, and limit further economic development. all the feeling on name. thus, i think those of us coming from the west can't even imagine what life is like for many of the migrant workers here of the fortune they work 12 hours a day in the heat. the orbits only live with 68 or 10 other workers in one room in the that is just 14 or 16 square meters in size. and dylan gusto barton an item home, they worked 6 days a week. they 12 hours a day plus one hour travel there and when our battle numb, shook donahoe, that doesn't leave much time for themselves. should have spoken leave. but that's not only typical for cutter is the same and other parts of the gulf and the world. and that should be reported on to them, but okay, other parts of the world aren't being allowed to host the world cup. dc saw them so i don't know why. so our katara residents actually interested in football mohammed from egypt heads a school here. unlike migrant workers and the low wage sector, qualified workers with a good salary can bring their wives and children to katara. i'm very excited. i'm waiting for all the dns. it'll come watch and enjoy. oh, so i'm waiting for my favorite theme, brazil. second theme friends. i like this michelle about azaleas are very good theme and you like me who and brazilian junior vinicius. when you were 15 and live level, what does it mean for you? this liberal cub is for the 1st time posted by eric, come for the 1st time and on a blog. them very exciting. i. eli exists and i think in shall look up that she will make something amazing and we are waiting for this. all of us, all out of the will, we are supporting, cut back on the sea front. soccer also dominates the conversation. it's friday when workers have their day off. these young men all support. so american teams, i do not even do that. i some days already got a bit of a b. i let me see. what is your favorite, tim martsen, dina argentina and i've india all of your argentina since you are has it brazil for those who have to work even on friday. 5 pm is shift change, while some are arriving for work, others wait for buses that will take them back to their accommodation on the edge of the city. many have since left the country cut are decided to send them home to create space for hundreds of thousands of fans. but even here, there is no criticism of carter or the working conditions. perhaps because people are afraid of repercussions if they talk. one thing seems clear cut or says it will not provide a compensation fund for the families of those who died on the construction sites. something many have called for as the sun goes down and the temperature becomes more bearable, more categories can also be seen out and about at the bazaar. the women where the long black a buyer, while the men are dressed in white, this part of the market sells birds and other pe

the b, b c, for example, has also featured a soldier wearing a notorious assa nazi insignia. while western media has now changed its tune towards the eyes of battalion, they didn't manage to hide their proud display of neo nazi tattoos. that comes as, despite the rise of far right groups across the world, $52.00 countries, including the u. s. voted against russia's un general assembly resolution condemning naziism, the chief editor of the finish. and the lady news outlet says that the numbers reflect the willingness of the west to tolerate the glorification of far right. ideology. i think the general problem here is that the western, oh, holy to go system doesn't want to recognize the difference between the battery us anthem, nationalistic, now we are seeing nazi's lecturing in the european or the western schools about, glorifying naziism. that's i think a step forward where and somewhere should be the border. and i think that some kind of red line asked be gross, it, i'm worry, afraid of the so you an, a voltage. now what's happened? because vast years at least the, there ha

we're here on the b, b, c, that every one of their news, their news hours or on your own news is that ukraine is winning and that the spirit is strong. and on the contrary, the russian army, which has a morale problem. now the best that can be said is that the media are telling us that a winter is coming and the war will wind down. and this is a good time for negotiations. why exactly russia would want to enter into action at this point when so then sky adamantly opposed it. here's another question, but the likelihood is quite different from what the expectations of readers of western media would find. the likelihood is the russians will go on the country offensive in the middle of winter, which is the logic of their 220000 soldiers were finishing their, their training for this effort. these are reservists who aren't inducted for indefinite period to sit in the trenches. the war will continue and the russians will smash ukraine. and i think general milly understands that that is why there were voices in washington. no cold trying to go see it's not because it's, it's a good point part

b b. c. interview with diana. all of those feature in this season that already in the last season, season for charles and diana were at one another's throats. but this season takes it to a higher level opens just a year before their separation. and the child now being king, of course it has become even more topical now, of course, where it's just 2 months after the death of the lay queen and they've been lot of calls or there were a lot of calls for it not to be shown at all and people said this was disrespectful to, to the queen's memory and could be damaging to king charles future with the depiction of his extra marital affair. they started the relationship with the woman who is now the queen. while he's just, when he's trying to establish himself in the shadow of his march of mother as the new monarch, some pretty big names have weighed in on this voicing criticism of the show on what they've been saying. wow. for example, actress the actress, dame judi, dench, you has betrayed the queen in several films, was pretty outraged in october. she wrote an open letter to the times x accusing the series of crude sensationalism and calling it clearly unjust. and she called on netflix to add a disclaimer to the episodes, making it very clear that it's a fictionalized dramatize ation, which they have, they had never done before and they've done, they've, they've, they far, he done it in their defense. they said, all that's always been obvious, it must be pointed out that dent is a personal friend of the queen, a consult camilla. now in the very 1st episode, we see the former prime minister john major talking to and then prince charles about an article in a newspaper that was suggested at the time that the british public thought that the queen was out of touch and should abdicate in favor of charles, that article is based on a real poll was published, but john major says that conversation never took place in is fiction paraded as fact. now the show on a peter morgan has said that the shows not unkind to charles. and he says it's always been obvious that the series is a vomit as ation. but netflix have added that disclaimer, but not every episode just just under the actual trailer for the series. it says it's a fictional dramatization. inspired by real events. or i can't wait to watch that we're in for a while ago or from, from our culture. their studies watch. you're watching dw news from berlin. just reminder of our top stories is our, in what's being called a major setback for moscow. russia has ordered its troops withdrawal from the strategic southern ukrainian city of cas home. the defense minister started showing group said russia was no longer able to keep the cities supplied and wanted to save the lives of its soldiers. and u. s. president joe barton has praised his parties better than expected results in tuesdays mid term elections, but with a number of contests, still undecided. it's unclear who will control congress and whether the democrats will be able to advance political agenda over the next 2 years. or watching t w news coming up. it's d w. news asia. now the speaking to former pakistan prime minister, enron caught who's on the offensive after an apparent assassination attempt last week that had more coming up in just a minute on terry mark. and thanks for watching with with, ah, ah, is the end of the pandemic in site? we show what it could look like. return to normal. and we visit those who are finding it difficult with success in weekly coping 19 special. in 60 minutes on d. w. 2016, as like a bunch of quit and casa wants to be of germany with, for me, the last few years have been quite a ride early in touch with, i've already done the homework when it comes to germany, and of course, i always look right in the eyes, birch is, but perhaps the biggest on the new hobby of mine hunger longer approved. i love to be in the news there, a person americans, but when you're feeling altogether, you'll realize that culture is just another way of living. are you ready to meet the germans? then join me, right? just do it on b. w. use. it can't be destroyed like bob, you can try. but it's impossible to move. ah. she performed for her life in auschwitz. he was the nazis favorite. to musicians who lived beneath the swastika of from about the sounds of power and inspiring story about survival. thanks to music. fetch the cello player. well, i was the only one i you super lucky user under the swastika starts november 19th on d, w. ah, here watching d w news asia coming up today, former prime minister of pakistan. and ron khan is on the offensive after the attempt on his life last week. he accused, as the current prime minister and the military for being behind the attack sector.

b, b. c journalist being arrested while protest is charged for his release. the baby ceases. he was assaulted before being fried chinese authorities say he didn't properly identify himself. the proteus are an extremely re, a show of descent with many here reaching their limits. flawed with the pretty neighboring loyal to you. i think everyone has their own demands in this matter. logo you, i think it's good for the environment of the whole country to have such a space for discussion. rallies and solidarity with china's demonstrations have now sprayed around the world. large crowds gathered outside the embassy in london. and here in tokyo, calling for an end to china's strict coven restrictions. yeah. but chinese authorities are refusing to change course. you know? we believe that with leadership and the support of the chinese people are fight against coven 19 will be successful. the way there has been a slight easing of restrictions in the western city of m. j, where a deadly apartment fire last week spat much of the recent and wrist. some residents have been confined to their homes for months, can travel on local buses from tuesday. some small relief, but far from the into the government. 0 cove and policy that so many are demanding . the new york based journalist, lizzie lee told me why we are seeing fewer images to day of those protests from china. we saw a chinese authorities have ready titan controls, erection to those protests which happened over the weekend, or in some cases, dispatching police forces, teenagers, subway stations, and public squares emitter tiny cities. so i think that was definitely one of the main reasons. what about china's 0 covey policy? it's not working. the rest of the world is moving on beyond the pandemic, economically and politically. when does this become a situation that beijing can no longer afford to live with? think so far, the signals are still very mixed in some parts of the country. there was science that local officials had already east to some of the most recount and restrictions in response to the public discontent. we saw over the weekend, but i just this morning, state media people was daily. i issued an article reader reading support for city kings 0 cove. it policy calling it the success which has withstood the test of time and practice. so i think we'll just have to wait and see. but if there's anything we know about eating, his instincts are all about being uncompromising in a feast of any perceived challenge to the parties. rule with the fact that these purchase a robin so quickly and across the entire country. and what does that tell us about? she's in pink's grip on power, i mean his grip on politics and his grip on society. they're not necessarily one of the same organ right? so at this point, i think it's still too early to tell if these protests actually threatens, you can, can script on power, but they are definitely a huge embarrassment for sitting teen despite the parties line that 0 co policy has been a huge success. you reality. we saw on, you know, this mismanagement of a local locked downs, pleading the country and those heavy handedness and the handling of the country's economy by a local level. officials all over the place. if it continues, we can't rule out anything more dramatic happening to the country into a leader himself. journalist elizabeth, joining us from new york to night was he thank you. thank you so much. in ukraine, president ward miss zalinski is warning his country to prepare for a new wave of russian air strikes. he says that as long as moscow has missiles, it will not rest airstrikes this month have cause the most damage to the power grid since the war began. back in february, millions remain without electricity and heat. and that is happening with winter firmly being felt in ukraine. i'm joined now by the ukranian lawmaker kiera roodick. she is the leader of the opposition holos party. here it's good to see you again. let, let's talk about what people in ukraine are dealing with last time you and i thought we were talking about these russian air strikes, but that was month, month and a half ago. now winter has arrived. it's the cold temperatures and the air strikes that have become the 2 weapons that russia is using against her country, isn't it? of course, ah, 1st of all, thank you so much for having me. and 2nd, a russia is with and i think everything they are with and i think foot the expert of the grains. they are weaponized, electricity, them liberalizing own nuclear. they are doing everything possible and impossible to win the war. however, they are losing on the military side right now over 50 percent of ukrainian energy infrastructure is destroyed and the we are trying to fix it as soon as possible as much as possible. we're still falling behind because the attacks continue as of today, half of population of for ukraine's capital. keith has been without the electricity, without the heat and air from time to time without running water. it is extremely hard right now in ukraine because it also affects their connectivity and i can tell you, you can survive without the heat, you can survive out without the water. you kind of can survive without electricity, but it's extremely hard without that connectivity, without the connection to the loved ones and just of to the rest of the world as the situation changed for the military and that you're getting the weapons from the west mail that you need what you need mel or enough. busy spare parts to repair the energy infrastructure. me that has also changed hasn't ah, we are receiving right now with uns, more supplies. and of course, some spare parts to help us with the rebuilding of energy infrastructure. however, every single day we need more and the best investment by our allies right now would be air force protection systems that will allow us to protect what is non damage, what is not destroyed. because we at one step before the total national blackout. and this is extremely dangerous because it will affect again, everyone in the whole europe. and given that we have the energy grid connected, but also that people that will be leading ukraine and there will be another way of, of refugees. i know that russia has denied that it ever had plans to withdraw its troops from these upper region nuclear power plant and southern ukraine. we know it's occupied the area since the early days of the war. ukraine is claiming that russian forces were planning to withdraw. what's the truth? i mean, do you have a confirmation that you can share with us? we don't have confirmation on that, but i want to warn everybody not to trust russia's worth. there has been no evidence in the past that you can do that. so we should not be having any illusion about that right now is a breach, a nuclear plant, the largest nuclear plant in the whole, europe is the most dangerous piece and the most threatening part of the war right now for the whole world. because we are basically one at mistake, away or one intention away, one bed miss out away from a nuclear catastrophe and continue it all the fighting that are continuing around. the plant are extremely, extremely dangerous for everyone. so if there is one that the international community needs to make is to assure that the plant is neutral because, you know, we have been through tra novel. we know that radiation is not picking up who has which passport? and it would be a generation of tragedy to so many people to so many nation you're, i have to ask you before you run out of time, there are reports mailed that us were weapon shipments to taiwan or behind schedule . because of these weapon shipments going to ukraine. how worried are you that as we enter 2023? that decisions will have to be made in washington between cave or taipei. i have recently visited taipei and we do have an agreement that ukraine right now is and the current epicenter oh, fighting for the freedom and taiwan is potential future at the center. so right now i do believe that the extension over the military production in the whole world will help us to receive enough of the weapons and supplies in the upcoming years. so i, what is coming up? i'm less worried that the winter that we need to survive. and yeah, we need to make sure that people just physically will go through it. and in, in february we will still be capable of fighting and will be all good and well. yeah, that's right. spring cannot come soon enough. you pretty law make her a cure roodick. joining us tonight is always clear. we appreciate your time and your insights. thank you. thank you and glory to crane. well, the city of her san in southern ukraine has been liberated from russian occupation, but the fighting is far from over. russian forces are showing the city daily from across the de need for a river. residents are also trying to understand what happened during the 8 months of occupation w's nic. connolly met 2 friends who survived weeks of captivity and torture. ah, caring for food, huddling around the few working y fi hotspots carrying on in spite of the shelling all around them. this is what everyday life looks like. have soon. the government key, it was people to evacuate. 2 areas of power, water away from the russian guns. the new and victoria state put during 8 long months of russian occupation. they're not about to go anywhere. now. they might seem like old friends, the only mentioned september, the seller of this unremarkable of his flock. as prisoners, i know that there's a violin forced their way into her flat. my grandma started screaming, they let her off into the bathroom soon at a bag over my head. and they just started beating me over and over. who's your president, who's your president? you're coming with us and it's going to be a lot of fun till i miss. the neil had subscribed to pro ukrainian chuck group on telegram enough for her son's increasingly anxious rush notifies to come off to him . victoria had been volunteering, taking food to people in need when a group came into suspicion for contacts in government control territory. when, when the russians ready to home, they found ukrainian flags on me, souvenirs and postcards feasible, char, i guess that means your enemy doesn't. at the interrogator asked me, i agreed with him. but what do people do to the enemies? he asked, i killed them. i replied, that you're right, he said, but they tortured them fast under wood. i didn't think i'd get out of there alive. i wanna live home to land during the new had no idea where it was that being kept there. he realized it's been told as weeks in the middle of hudson, and they recognized pictures of their basement shed online children. we tried to go inside, but the police isn't letting anyone in the risk of russian mines is just too high. all denila victoria ever saw was there, so as soon as they left it, there were captain hoods, the captain, determined to remain unseen. but as little as they could see, they could hear more than they wanted. 2 of us, the worst was hearing screams, lightning i was the loudest in our basement during the interrogation see of all the cells could hear yelping. i was unbearable. the men's shouts didn't travel quite as far. but when you started, all i could do was pray that they go easy. all you knew of was all quite. ah, was up within the pat my last interrogation, my hands were bound. the pain from the electric shocks was so bad that i didn't even notice that i pulled a nail out. the, all of a sudden i could feel the blood dripping my hands my trousers. they were all covered in blood. the lead path, which give the most terrifying moment, was still to come of 2 weeks without news. while the inmates was suddenly driven out to the city at god's telling them, it was time to say their prayers. on the side of the that they made every one record a short video. you had to say your name, your date of birth, and saying to the camera that you are alive and well, for a moment i was really worried. what do they need this for? which was that, did they need an alibi? and when you brush geffrey to seal them, they were told to close their eyes and count to a 100. but instead of the shots that expected, they heard they kept his driving away without them. yeah. about the likelihood their russian kept his low face. justice is slim, they tortured the evidence as they left. at least one good thing has come of it all . victoria tells me we're done being scared. it was d w 's nick connelly report. security forces into my you say they have ended and hours long hotel seized by i'll kind of linked insurgents. at least 8 civilians were killed as algebra. militant storm, the villa rose hotel in the capital, mogadishu. the venue was frequented by government officials, authorities say they rescued 60 people and the government has been battling eligible for more than a decade now in this latest attack comes just as many fighting the militants thought that they were finally seeing some progress. oh, this is my door in 7 somalia, hundreds of thousands of people are taking refuge chair, displaced by the drought and the extremist mayor of july alley was seen and the security forces are trying to keep our ship up outside the city. but the group is only 30 kilometers away from me, my on high alert, day and night to avoid getting ambushed daily patrols. give the people a sense of safety ash, pleasant control here until 2012. when the government recapture this city casa, was became one of the conic. this is, is that so maria, her face for the last 50 years, and be loss of it a lot. but now the blushing, the hope, local militia as a playing a supportive role to here and there hide out this group plans then next offensive against our shop. their leader is a former member who wants to remain anonymous. the lead on the they miss a i, when i joined in 2007, they had control of the country. there was a lot of unemployment and no opportunities alive at it. he says that after a few years as a fighter, his job was to extort money from farmers and shop owners. but after almost a decade of witnessing torture and public executions, he changed his mind. and a fanny, i realized they did not want to establish a government, or a rule of law and bloodshed became normal. either he managed to flee, but had to leave his family behind. his wife was forced to get re married to an archibald fighter, and his son will soon be recruited to become one. he fears they are among the almost 1000000 people estimated by the un to be under the control of our ship up suffering. the effects of drought that cut off from much needed fruit 8. we're here to look now some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world. police forces in 6 countries have brought down an international cocaine route. almost 50 people were rusted. here in europe, and in the united arab emirates, 30 tons of drugs were seized. the world's largest active volcano. mount a lower on hawaii's big island is erupt in for the 1st time in nearly 4 decades. the u. s. geological surveys, as lava has begun moving down the mountain, it's impossible to predict whether or not it will flow into populated areas. crowds turned out at rio de janeiro, cobra cabana. to celebrate pry, the mother of the 27th parade. it is courage to be happy wides group say that violence against brazil's l g b t. community has risen significantly in the past 2 years. rescue workers in cameroon, are searching for survivors a day after a landslide in the capitol yonder. at least 15 people have been confirmed dead. busy many more missing the victims gathered on a hill for a moral service when the ground gave way. at least 8 people, including a newborn baby have been killed in a landslide. on an italian island rescue workers are searching for others who are missing. now the government is declared a state of emergency the serenity this island normally enjoys has been turned on its head. a violent storm sent waves of mud sweeping through the streets early saturday. the aftermath has done to those tasks with recovery efforts. the rescue as include hundreds of volunteers who now have to clear out seemingly endless amounts of sludge. a catholic children's home is among the buildings flooded. vela my very alley. i have a mother in law. this is all the mud that came in to the compound through the sewe

b, b, c journalist being arrested while protest is chant for his release. the baby ceases . he was assaulted before being fried. chinese authorities say he didn't properly identify himself. the proteus are an extremely ria show of descent with many here reaching their limits. ballade is pretty neighbor and loyal to you. i think everyone has their own demands in this matter. logo, yo, you and i think it's good for the environment of the whole country to have such a space for discussion. rallies and solidarity with china's demonstrations have now sprayed around the world. large crowds gathered outside the embassy in london. and here in tokyo, calling for an end to china's strict coven restrictions. but chinese authorities are refusing to change course. you know, we believe that with leadership and the support of the chinese people are fight against coven 19 will be successful. the way there has been a slight easing of restrictions in the western city of odom. she, we are a deadly apartment fire last week, spark much of the recent and reast. some residents have been confined to their homes for months, can travel on local buses from tuesday, some small relief, but far from the in to the governments. 0 cove and policy that so many are demanding a jewish fabi in crunch. mert is in beijing. t has more on what is happening on the ground. yeah, today, i mean it's really, it seems calm he also engaging and where are several hundreds, if not thousands of protesters together last night. but still you see a lot of proof police not only in uniforms. awesome. plainclothes and you know, it could snap any time and it's really to a tense atmosphere. and me as a journalist, i was immediately kicked out of the protest site. and just by standing there when they identified me as a journalist, m. so let's see how it will develop it. i mean, in shanghai, what the authorities did, they basically fenced of all the squares a fenced off and a several streets. but i mean, yeah, that's, that's of course, intimidating. and yeah, we know that there have been several arrests, but i mean what they cannot do is, you know, to, to change the attitude. they were already so many protests us out there last night and they achieved it. they did it, and many people saw it. and they spread from what to work, and i think that has a big impact. i'm doing now by mary gallagher, and she's a professor of political science at the university of michigan. she is also the director of the center for chinese studies professor. it's good to have you on the program. you know, we just heard or reported. they're talking about the, the monday call and the fact that there's still this tension in the air or how do you read that? i mean, are we passed the protests? well, i think we've seen in the last 24 hours, just a hugely increased police presence. you know, these arrests and the barricades that have gone up the harassment of journalists. so it's possible that you know, the chinese government has a lot of capacity. they can shut these protests down, but they're not really gonna solve the problem right? there are still going to be a lot of dissatisfaction, a lot of anger underneath a about the lock downs and about 0 cove it. and also just about the political environment it's, it's, i think a lot of people believe that the political environment is partly why the policy won't change. you explain that to me because i think people around the world are looking at this and, and asking themselves, are these protests solely about the pandemic uncovered, or is there something else or place you yeah, i think that's a good question. said this, these protests really did start out around cove. it, they started about the fire in a room and she and people really saw the fire as something that could happen to themselves. right? that these a locked downs are putting their lives at risk if they need to get to the doctor if there's a fire. i'm but what happened very quickly, which is unusual for protest in china, is that they became political and they became tart. they targeted the central government, they targeted she's in ping himself and i think what's happening is that of, for the young, educated youth who are protesting in particular they see the policy environment, the rigidity of 0 cove. it as linked to the political environment, a political environment that's much more closed. and that's very centralized around this, you know, single leader who's now started his 3rd term and who has made 0 cove at his signature policy. and that is his signature policy going to be his 1st major failure. i would say it's already clearly a failure. i think these are protest are long in coming. people have been frustrated for a while. the shanghai locked down at the beginning of the year was really devastating. and i think that this is just, people are fed up and she's in pain. has become the target, which is, you know, like i said, very unusual for protest in china. usually, protests are local, they target local issues and local officials and people generally think that the central government is better, the central government is more adapt it's, it's more, it has more capacity. but a 0 cove it is directly attached to the central government. it's directly attached to she dem ping and it's not sustainable. and i think people have realized that as the world has moved on, china is being left behind. and kinda changing being can he doing course reversal here without losing face. getting rid of the researchers on and by justifying it with the fact that we are the factor to the world, we have to get back to work on the supply chains on this plan dependents. i think they could. i mean, i think they need to switch the narrative and they should have been doing this for several months now. it's a little bit of perplexing to me. and i think to a lot of experts on china, why we haven't seen the central government a be more adept at turning away from this policy, gradually. a boosting, vaccinations among the elderly, increasing health care capacity, particularly i see use because every country that's gone through cove, it has had to go through a reopening, where deaths have gone up and they have not been able to figure out a way to get the country ready for what's coming up? well, he should be able to do that. why they haven't been able to do that thus far is, is really perplexing here. and we talk about new daily cases. no hitting record high 6 days in a row. but how reliable are these statistics, i mean, have we ever been able to really rely or believe in the numbers coming out of beijing about this pandemic? i mean, i think the numbers on, on cases is probably fairly accurate because they do so much testing. i think the deaths are probably under counted because the way in which they designate a death from cove it is a little bit different than most other places. so i do think that the trends are probably fairly accurate and clearly, you know, china has done better in terms of the number of deaths, but it's partly done better because it just hasn't been able to move out of what they, you know, what they did at the very beginning which were just these really massive and very, very severe locked downs. professor mary gallagher from the university of michigan professor, we appreciate your time and your insights to not very valuable. thank you. thank you. ah. is it german no hell being used illegally to help the regime in north korea 6 years ago, the u. n. band scientific cooperation with pyongyang, but t w's investigative unit has discovered one potential disturbing violation of that ban. and our reporters didn't have to go far at all to find the story. here's more a barrage of missiles growing concerned about a possible 7th nuclear test. north korea's dictator kim duncan has overseen rapid advances in military capabilities. these la casita will progress in science and technology to try to stop this in 2016, the un asked all member states to suspend all academic exchange and scientific corporation with north korea except for rare cases with special permission. but there are certain at berlin bays, mack small institute continue to work with north korean colleagues without asking german authorities for an exemption to the sanctions. in fact, m b, i research your kim herman published 9 research papers with north koreans between 20172024. all 9 paper is described fundamental research in laser technology where real world applications are not immediately apparent. d w, discuss them with 10 independent experts, 6 physicists and for disarmament. experts, half of the physicists saw no danger while the other said they could imagine their work. 80 military aims in the future. but all disarmament experts were alarmed especially cut. so he suffered to cover who served on the un panel of experts on north korea. those papers published after 2016 up to me to be careful, courier polish him. oh, you think you're a comfort, lucian, for dykus, north grade have been norm to help are quite and accumulate to a significant amount or t home asian rogue, want to ask miss long new cra, uniform or joint cooperation with for institutions. dr. herman declined an interview. mark of rocking director of the m b, i told d w. they had never received an offic
