and to treasure island. this is a lot of our volunteer time, but your questions and your comments and your perspectives are really very valuable, and i think it makes for a better product in the end, so thank you very much. >> we also want to thank you, director tsen, for your ongoing leadership, as well. >> well, have a good month until we see you next. i think there is going to be an august meeting, and we will use that time, and it will be remotely, but i look forward to seeing you all in person soon enough. thank you. >> okay. thank you.

white island said. maybe entering a period where eruptive activity is more likely than normal. we have raised the alert level to level 2 that's the highest level it can be at but it's not erupting . that's because we could see tremor in the volcano increasing over those those months and we could also see some increases in that gas that we're monitoring at the volcano indicating that the rest was was up do you think if we haven't heard now and that there was a level 2 risk he wouldn't have gone on for. one it's true. has he been one of the reasons so. just. of. courtrooms of this sriracha die in jail. on the morning of december 9 several to a grapes were heading to white island new zealand residence jeff hopkins and his daughter little army drove to phuket thailand the moment to point to to his to the volcano. something i've always been interested in and dad went when he was our youngest so it was amazing it was a faster together. the trip due to leave it 10 am was run by a well known group called white

active volcano the different thing about what island is most of it's under water so the tip of the island only is poking out through the ocean. more than $18000.00 people visit the island each year. there would be something like a few pictures going to mars the landscape so the colors are recent and different that's such a harsh looking form in its effect of you know things are always changing jobs always sound all vain stuff you know it was just surreal really awesome awesome but . when you actually land on the island and you walk into the crater that of the volcano you're actually walking right into the throat of an active volcano that is a ruptured frequently in the last several decades. in $26.00 jane scientists got a warning of just how dangerous an eruption on white island could be. so there was an eruption in 2016 it was at night. it was a similar option and that it had a column up in the air it produced a surge out across the ground probably through quite a lot of rock and ballistics but there was nobody on the island that's the big difference. it was very clear that if people had

only operator taking people to the island by boat. we checked in. this crime or signed in gave mexican details etc received a boarding. ass which was a metal cone and then from there just across the road and whited by the boat for the crew to start loading. jeff in the line it can be seen here on the wharf whiting to get on the white island to his boat the feigning the video was filmed by brazilian tourist alice sandro calif mn. yeah we're just taking a camera and just feel me everything you know like a blog or blog and like these. things. alessandra was on the to with his wife eileen e. . yeah i was like just excited to get there and to see her like hardy. when we 1st scar on the island there was a brief safety briefing and it world was very very brief it was just you know don't touch anything and take anything stay on the path and stay in between the talk adds that was kind of about it. i was sun dried kept filming is the 2 a god warned about getting too close to the steam. are great if we're going to ask you for your own oh here he

they were bodies still left on the island. the effort to rescue them was to lie because of the use of another eruption. among the bodies recovered was given delos step daughter zoe hosking. wife lisa had survived but was badly injured. in new zealand work safe in the car in a both looking into the tragedy but their investigations could take more than a year. there's no way in this world that any of us would have put people on the island of would thought for a moment. not one millisecond that they would have thing. the result with us. 19 of the 21 people who died were from the ovation of the sea. sydney lawyer to use if is representing passengers and family members who believe the cruise operator royal caribbean didn't do enough to warn its guests this particular volcano was at a level. at the very least royal caribbean which held itself out to be responsible for this too i should have been monitoring and communicating with participants as to the risk and giving them the choice and informed choice to decide not to go because of

or how did the island endure this i just imagine 10 or 12000 visitors here on this really small island. it was terrible i must say there was no room between all the people that we just heard of past the shops and through here shoulder to shoulder. you might see something nice one of the shops we didn't stand a chance of getting to it to buy it we were just pushed on ahead by the crowds until he went out of back at the ship not to say home again. how come prices are so cheap on helical land. that's a privilege we heard from our time with britain and it's been preserved through all the changes and rule was taken on in the treaties so we've always had our judy and tax free status here. it still exists but today the tourists arrive here because of nature almost as it used to be when heligoland became a seaside resort in the early 19th century and 1st people came here because of the good air it was the beginning of how legal lance tourism. that's the cue for me to look around for a souvenir this will fly from my balcony. there's only one main shopping street the invite it has one duty free

that is what ellis island dives. it's a way for steerage class passengers to come into the country and start their lives. this is the clear delineation. if you have money, you are in. and so, when we had in -- we had inside we will start the story of those immigrants who come into the ship and enter the front door and come into the first floor of ellis island, which really looked dramatically different than it does today. these beautiful buildings were hospital complexes that were run by the united states public health service, which is just a fantastic crew of doctors who cared for immigrants that words attained for medical reasons. about 10% words detained for medical reasons. the string of holdings we see were for non-contagious diseases. behind it, 30 yards parallel, the string of buildings for contagious diseases. there is a measles wards, a tuberculosis ward, and a sane asylum -- and in sane asylum. this was a real operating islands. the public health service was so good at their job that occasionally hospitals

she'd never even heard of the pharaoh islands. i thought fire island it's there fire part of it so i was thinking oh you're leaving. all the stuff. but he said this part of denmark and i need to google. denmark. and looking very spiral i love it kind of crying. and then i go far i learn. in denmark at the end and i guess you know my grandmother tried to go off the very far away from go mark . and even farther away from internet home city of manila. the capital of the philippines boasts some 13000000 residents barely 20000 live and her new hometown. the pharaohs comprise 18 islands made of volcanic rock. some pity 1000 people call this european outpost home. but living on an island surrounded by unspoiled nature can get lonely at times. especially for the men who far outnumber women on the faroes for years young women have been leaving the pharaohs to study and start a new life abroad the men left behind practice traditional professions and abide by traditional gender roles. at the port of tour charlotte motor new honasan sells his

in the far islands you can go anywhere and. the war is still out even in my because i know it's very safe. it's good. to raise if i'm going to my right. meanwhile bang is raising her children on the pharaoh's without relying on a man's help. she's found work at a facility for children with disabilities today she's training a new colleague the pain has worked hard to get where she is today she studied to become a social educator at the university of the pharaoh islands and was the only philippine a student and wrote there. it's very common for foreigners to work in fischbach very. necessary language but then i get high dream. big dreams that's why i have been to school study. after separating from her husband being knows that marrying a pharaoh he's man doesn't necessarily guarantee a secure future so she's learned to stand on her own 2 feet it helps that she didn't just have friends in the filipino community but also mixed with the locals you can love being integrated if you don't know the language it's a child ends in a good t

when was the most dramatic moment in the history of the island. the most dramatic moment was definitely the end of world war 2 when the great bombardment everybody had to be evacuated came the big bang in april 947 resulting in the complete destruction of the island's buildings. the british occupying forces once tried to destroy all the islands military facilities with 6.7 kilograms of explosives never again should it be used for military purposes for many years heligoland remained on inhabitable. 'd within $150.00 for the population began returning to the island and tourism started up here again. first they slept in tents and because there was no place at all to stay here on the island there were no houses or anything. so they stayed a little tense and doing stunts sold whatever they needed. you could pass through and buy little souvenirs and people came in droves to see helical. soon to risque masses not for the beautiful nature but to buy duty free liquor and cigarettes. how did the i live in jurgis i just imagine 10 or 12000 visitors here on t

was a real operating islands. the public health service was so good at their job that occasionally hospitals would send cases out here to be taking care of and they did a great job of nursing people back to health who had diseases that were curable. it's a very big standard here. if you had a disease that was in , you'reand contagious definitely going back. if you have an incurable disease, it's more likely you are going to come back. part of ourery big complex. it's not open to the public yet. it's being worked on. slowly but surely we will hopefully get that complex opened up for the public to see. underneath the canopy at ellis island's, this would be a spot where the immigrants would have andd up to go in the door begin their processing. the original canopy had groups they had lined up and with them virtually only what was important to them. bringing their entire families at the same time, they had everything they owned back in europe. the farmland, the cattle, all the supplies. the farm is self, just to be ab

the park covers more than 40% of the island. rapa nui was formed out of volcanic rock starting some three million years ago. there are now three dormant volcanoes that dominate the landscape. this one is called rano kau. no one knows exactly how many archaeological sites there are on the island, but this place is like a living museum, constantly battered by the sun, the wind and the rain. those three elements are, over time, destroying the moai. these statues may look as though they're solid stone, but they're actually quite prous. jo anne van tilburg showed us a small piece of the soft volcanic rock, called tuff, that the moai are made from. >> van tilburg: tuff has really special qualities that-- where it can be carved and it can be polished quite easily. >> cooper: it's good for sculpting because it-- it's-- with a harder stone, it's able to be chipped away easily. >> van tilburg: correct, correct. >> cooper: so the very material which made-- made these statues possible-- also, long term, makes them vul-- very vulnerable. >>

leads around the island the cliffs. water as far as the eye can see the mainland is 50 kilometers away. i passed the tall and this free standing rock is still a landmark of heligoland everybody hopes that it can withstand the wind of the waves for a long time and i continue to germany smallest nature reserve says the rock of the . it is the nesting ground of many sea birds but it is named after that. in june the small feathered take wing amateur photographers wait for them to take their courageous plunge. there are not many places in the europe where he can get so close to wildlife. although this island is very small it has an incredibly eventful history. you can learn more about it in the helical let me see i'm your guide and lease is the boss here he tells me that this island used to be a pirate's nest a navy fort and trading post in the early 18th century it was just as important as the international port of hamburg is today. and was once part of denmark then of great britain it was not until 890 that the island beca

aggies that were there on the island and that is what they did. he sent that back so that people would know that they were still alive and safe on the island. shortly after that, it was forwarded back to the united states, the island fell and they became prisoners of war to the japanese. in 1946, after the island had been repatriated and won back over, the aggies held their first muster there at the entrance to the tunnel. you can see that right here, the 1946 muster. the individuals in that photo are all military for the most part. those are aggies have come back to the island to be rededicate themselves and to answer for their comrades that were lost during the war. another significant piece and for me personally having had the opportunity to go to the island and take some cadets there on one of our international excursions, to have been able to go into the tunnels and see exactly how their headquarters was set up. in the photo in the top left-hand photo of the display shows the headquarters tunnel there and while you've got the individuals stan

the governments of the canary islands and the balearic islands are trying to getan and the balearic islandssion that british holiday—makers should go into quarantine. also worth mentioning that this is a uk wide decision. sometimes the devolve government going different directions but this decision applies in scotland, wales, northern ireland and england. so everybody returning to the uk from spain will have to go into this very quarantine for two weeks. they are not supposed to take public transport if at all possible to get to their destination, and once they are there they cannot even go out to exercise for an hour or two every day. 0k, thank you very much indeed. bbc news reporter briony sowden is on holidays in lanzarote, in the canary islands. a lovely place to be on holiday but 110w a lovely place to be on holiday but now you have to quarantine when you come back. what are you a reaction? it was very unexpected. i didn't actually expect the news yesterday. so now, like many others, i will have to quarantine. i was expected in the office tomorrow but that is no longer the case. the bi

so what we did, i repositioned the island as the premier private island hospitality and destination eventenue in america. that's a big, bold aspirational vision. it's totally attainable for us at house island because you have 12 acres of unobstructed vistas, 360 degrees of unobstructed vistas of portland, across the bay and the islands behind me. the house up on the hill is the old captain's quarters called chrkristin kristina's lodge. it sleeps 14 people. we've got five bedrooms -- excuse me, five beaches and killer sunsets. we can deliver privacy, safety and security in abundance and people nowadays, because of the pandemic, they are looking for security and safety. we can deliver that in spades out here on house island. liz: yeah. you could get a whole family together if they all test negative and they can do it safely. tell me exactly what kind of interest you have seen. do you have any bookings, solid ones, yet? >> yeah. so i've got some prospects of an owner of a 50 meter yacht wants to rent the island for august and september. so eight weeks. the challenge with that couple is they

military aircraft have been involved in 44 accidents on the island. the latest threat is this hybrid plane the osprey notorious for its safety issues. wherever the military is based in asia there is a relationship with local people especially women that often breeds resentment. in okinawa this resentment ignited a rioting in 1970 scores of american g.i.'s what pull from a cause which was set alight. for washington and its compliant ally and tokyo it's this kind of insurrection but they fear. during the making of this film a young woman was raped and murdered allegedly by an american military contract from one of the bases c c. it was the latest of thousands of cases of violence and it brought massive crowds into the streets demanding an end to the military occupation of their country. this is some mice misao designed to carry a nuclear warhead during the cold war the united states secretly installed nuclear weapons at this to launch pad in a one off. most of them aimed to china. ringback today the nuclear missile site is run by a buddhist organization

wejoin a dry run on the spanish island of mallorca. kit that protected our health, but is now polluting the french riviera. we've got news of the heroic efforts to get rid of it. and covid in the caribbean: what lockdown has meant for that little piece of paradise. well, for a change, let's start with some good news. and it looks like holidays to many parts of europe are now back on the cards this summer, thanks to countries like spain, italy and france and greece reopening their borders to tourists from a list of designated countries. but assuming you do get to soak up that mediterranean sun, just what kind of holiday can you expect? recently, the balearic islands ran a pilot project to test spain's new coronavirus protection measures for tourists, and we went along to see how it went. to test their covid—19 countermeasures, spain invited 11,000 germans over two weeks to fly to the balearic islands. the first flights arrived in mid—june. the aim — to show the world how spain could keep tourists safe. hello! we feel very safe at the mo

and spain but that does not include the canary islands and balearic islands.ck are they going to be changes to government policy on that? the foreign office gives advice on individual risk to a traveller and the islands where the rates are lower, the risk of an individual getting covid is much lower but we have to base it on what is the right thing for the public health of the uk, the uk population and the situation is that some of the islands, the rates are going up and also movement of travel between the islands and the mainland so we had to do islands and the mainland so we had todoa islands and the mainland so we had to do a clear policy that would best protect the uk... so no talk of original quarantine. we have been talking to the boss of tui, and that is what they are looking. it would make sense look at different regions differently. one thing we saw at the rate was going off across many region. —— going up, people travel to many regions. the decision was taken based to many regions. the decision was ta ken based on to many regions. the decision was ta

people can still travel to the canary islands and the balearic islands, such as majorca and ibiza, butto quarantine when they get back too. zita hill in majorca is one of those affected. i find it illogical that in a place where there were very few cases, and where we have been following social distancing, face masks and hand washing and all the safety regulations to the letter, i have to quarantine for 14 days when i get home, whereas people in the uk who haven't followed those guidelines would have no consequences at home. the tour operator tui has cancelled all holidays to mainland spain until after the 9th of august. it's resuming flights to the canary islands and the balearics tomorrow. these new rules aren'tjust affecting british holiday—makers. they will hit the spanish tourism industry hard, as around a quarter of all visitors are from the uk. and with last—minute changes like this one, there will be fears that people won't feel confident in booking holidays. charlotte gallagher, bbc news. labour have called the goverment‘s handling of the travel restrictions ‘shambolic‘. but t

placed in islands. this sounds like a preparation for war.our 1st president george washington said if you want peace prepare for war and essentially what the united states is doing and is responding to provoke kind of behavior on the part of china and just as we did in the cold war the idea was to have a position of military strength such that your adversaries were not tempted to act in an aggressive ways or try to employ coercion to get their way and he just last week the u.s. navy sent a guided missile destroyer. in to the spratly islands the south china sea and what was different about this i think was that chinese fighter scrambled that sounds like an escalate. well the again from an american perspective the escalation was the chinese speeding to militarized these islands in the 1st place moving its military capabilities doubt into that region engaging in provocative behavior against the commercial activities said military forces of other minor countries in the region that have claim to those islands so it's a response to chinese intimida

. —— balearic islands.e, the aim was to show how spain could keep tourists safe. hello. we feel very safe at the moment. so it was very good, organised, and we are happy to be here. none of these arrivals were subject to the two—week quarantine imposed on all visitors since the beginning of spain's state of emergency. instead, they had their temperatures checked and were asked to hand over contact details for their accommodation. to hand over contact details for theiraccommodation. fortourism companies here, it has all been very welcome. it's very good news that after 92 days we are getting our first arrivals back to mallorca. 0bviously first arrivals back to mallorca. obviously it's been a very complicated period of time here on the island and generally obviously the island and generally obviously the world. but tourism is a very important part of the spanish economy and it needs to start again. the tourists were sent to a select few half full hotels where hand sanitising, social distancing and a self chec

rest of the island is not like that at all the rest of the island is very quiet very local and is very subdued and people respect each other so there's only those 2 areas that really that are the problem but the thing is that the crowds now have become so huge in the past couple of days that the police are finding it hard to cope so they are sending in elite forces to deal with the crowds in part of our minds and that my belief to try and quite things down here they've also brought in a raft of other rules masks are now compulsory in public spaces and it is $100.00 euro fine if they don't wear a mask in the 1st couple of days is probably going to be a bit of leeway but after that now it would be very stretched ok is also strict new proposals on parties as well that there's a lot of illegal parties going on in the streets raves happening because the bars have been told that maybe must close at 2 o'clock in the morning instead of like normal it's 5 or 6 in the morning ok when they are card on the special and of majorca with the leaders there about the pandemic and party goers and holiday

the islands.ay to go and that is exactly what the authorities in the balearic islands and the canary aloes are asking for. the level of infection that is pretty low. do you think the timing of this decision, some more notice should have been given for the timing was elephant us, of course. we wouldn't go public with something like this as it is the decision for the government. but if something like this is going to happen, we need a bit of prior warning, it is essential for travel companies. now they have a logistical serious issue, having to get hold of people and tell them what their options are. so, yes, a bit more warning would be ideal. of course the government did say it would monitor the situation closely in terms of any destination, but even so, a bit of prior warning would be helpful. we had this morning from dominic raab saying this was a real—time decision, they had to make it. the deputy chief medical officer for england saying there is no magic time to make this sort of decision. you

also known as the island of. going to start off with the old town of growth which is one of the best preserved medieval cities in the world so follow me. the old town was mainly built by the knights of the order of st john who stayed here after the crusades early 14th century and right now we're actually standing in the night street one of the most beautiful streets in the old town that leads up all the way to the grand master spotless. so welcome to socrates street one of the main thoroughfares the shopping streets of the old town but you'll find that people who actually live here live in the small neighboring feet. for coffee in one of my favorite spots in the old town who actually had a turkish coffee house in a greek coffee house you don't agree coffee in a turkish coffee house you order a turkish coffee in both however you'll get the same thing. but. the upper level is going up and the face of the turkey supplements took over after 200 years of nights and we're here to stay for 400 years that's probably the

and the ca nary islands. on the balearic islands and the canary islands.ou very much. what is the mood of passengers in departures there? it is a grey, wet and extremely windy day here in southern england. behind me is the departure is a gate at gatwick airport. everyone arriving here is more 01’ airport. everyone arriving here is more or less a self—selecting group. in other words, over the last 2a hours they have decided to go ahead with the holidays, and that means eve ryo ne with the holidays, and that means everyone i have spoken to for sure says two things. one, that they actually welcomed the speed with which the government has made its decision on quarantine, and secondly they are taking a very pragmatic approach, which is, we are in the middle of an international pandemic. that means this is now the new normal, and that when they go away they expect to be coming back to quarantine and will be following the guidelines. i have to say, when i pressed them further on conditions of employment and whether they feel they will get enough help from their e

on a party island --mallorca is known for being a party island -- were the local authorities naÏve inththinking thahat hoholidaymakers would stick to e rules? wendy: well, you know, there is a lot more to mallorca than just people who party. that is two specific areas of mallllorca, on one side of the island a and the other side of e island. they both are party destinations for the rest of the island is not like that at all. the rest of the island is very quiet, very l local, very subdu. people respect each h other. there is only those two areas that are the problem. but the thing is that the crowds now has become so huge in the past couple of days that the police are finding it hard to cope. they are sending it elite forces to deal with the crowds to try to quiet things down. they have brought in a raft of other rules. masks are compulsory in public spaces and it is a 100-euro fine if they don't wear a mask. in the firirst couple of days therere will probably be a bit f leeway, but after that it will be very strict. also strict new rules on parties. there is a lot o of illegal partie

the e government will do all it can to watch the area around the senkaku islands. at the same time, we would like to continue to respond calmly and resolutely to the chinese side. >> japan controls the islands, china and taiwan claim them. the japanese government maintains the islands are an inherent part of japan's territory in terms of history and international law. it says there is no issue of sovereignty to be resolved. >>> the u.s. secretary of defense is criticizing what he calls china's aggressive behavior. >> the pla has also increased the number and duration of its incursions into the waters surrounding the japanese administered islands. >> he said the role is growing. the u.s. secretary of state said he wants to build a global coalition to counter the threat he says china's communist party poses. >> we want to see every nation who understands freedom and democracy, and values that and knows it's important to their own people, their own sovereign country to be successful, to understand this threat that the chinese communist party is posing to them and to w

island which was once called the island beyond the island. as assuming some sang to stay a virgin and european town with them they'd want to. quote what role will island be able to play in that and that new environment yeah we're a very very happy and a suppose a 2 front which a great success has recently with day which the security council which we were talking about permits tariffs and have a seat 420-212-0228 finance minister is to take over the euro group as is charity euro group so i think an increasingly our people are working outside of the country and they're involved in developing the we have as nearly as much an irish investment in the united states now as we've united states invested in ireland which has been an extraordinary position of irish companies now been able to bring acting high the other way and that you're mr trump is aware of that problem and it is a fact and so we continue to i think you punch above our weight but when you're small and when you're a trading country when you were exporting like we survived and on and sh

we did have a look at whether certain islands could be included and not others. chris whitty, the chief medical officer, was very clear with us that he was concerned about the data. so we'll be looking at the latest data right across europe and the claims that a second wave could be on the way. also tonight: at the start of the pandemic, care homes in england were "thrown to the wolves", according to a committee of mps. in germany, police have completed the latest stage of their investigation into the disappearance of madeleine mccann 13 years ago. bosses of the four tech giants defend themselves against accusations that they're too powerful and anti—competitive. and why scientists are confident that stonehenge has yielded another of its ancient secrets. and coming up in sport on bbc news: brentford close in on a place in the championship play—off final, with a dominant display against swansea. good evening. the debate over quarantine measures for travellers to the uk has intensified today, with the spanish government putting more pressure on downing street to re

, the ca nary incidence rates in the balearic islands, the canary islands, hot spots lots of britishhey are lower incidence rates than most of the uk and therefore you could say safer than on average most parts of the uk, that this is a regional issue. it is the likes of when i am here in barcelona, catalonia, and also madrid, aragon, saragossa, and these are the places of big concern for spain. the reality shows in the figure there is a bit concerned. we have gone from around 200 or 300 cases a day just have gone from around 200 or 300 cases a dayjust a month ago, a steady rise, to this week more than 2000 cases a day. it dropped to about 855, but that incidence rate has been on the rise and it is about three times higher in comparison to the population to the uk. what does that mean? well, that means when you think about 15% of the gross domestic product of spain coming from tourism, and a large proportion of that comes from the millions of british tourists coming here, it is a huge blow. on the streets as well it is clear, and there are two m essa g es it is clear, and there are t

at home, here is our treasure island camera. a great start to the day, in the 50s and 60s with low clouds and areas of fog. they even have some it is 58 in concord and livermore without sunshine and clouds for clint at 58 and for san francisco, mid-50s with mostly cloudy skies. san jose is at 61 with that cloudy start and 52 right now for santa rosa. through our day we are cool, cloudy and breezy and catching clearing around the bay. mid to upper 60s to low 70s and breezy and warming up inland, mid to upper 80s to low 90s and even some of our hottest spots will top out in in the mid-90s. here is the satellite and radar. were settling into that weather pattern. low pressure systems or off our coast and it has not really moved but it is going to push inland by the middle part of the week and that will cool us down for all of us across the bay area. you can see the skies are clearing for most of us. we are going back to the coast and we have low clouds and areas of fog and as we go through the afternoon, the cloud cover is pushing
