Have Team Coverage from warsaw in london and athens lets go 1st to warsaw where living a quarter past is standing by for us polands been reporting similar numbers to germany the Health System there is having trouble can you tell us more. Yes indeed the Health Care System in poland is about to reach its limits yesterday for the 1st time poland had more than 10000 new called the to 900 infections within a day around 9000 people are hospitalized that is a record high in poland according to the Health Ministry we still have 6000 people thats available in the country but theres growing reports hospitals are struggling earlier this week a covered 900 patient and Health Care Worker himself died after he was unable to find a free bed in the hospital. The Prime Minister announced the property from saturday on all of poland theres going to be a red zone meaning that theres going to be restrictions stricter is fictions and all of the country all right thanks and maybe an hour hoping to go to london next but as you can see were struggling to get that line up so ill go to athens where i am ficarra standing by for us and the infections there have been lower than elsewhere in the continent why is that well the government here took a very very aggressive stance from the start of the pandemic and it really had no other option because the country had come out of a financial crisis that had left the Health System shattered here so it literally had to put everyone on standstill from trades to everyone schools everything oh so that it could work on replenishing and boosting the Health System getting the masks getting the equipments getting everything so thats how it survived and went through its 1st round but now since july these numbers of just searched and rocketed and were now seeing numbers that have the government in a state of crisis and we understand that the Prime Minister later on today will be holding a nationally televised address to potentially inform greeks that more measures new draconian measures may be in store.

Shes fighting for himself but you swallow war for his wealth and these 3 women and they were out fighting for so eerie or principles the principle of democracy and defiled use that wealth was their time very orton to the whole European Countries to the whole european continent and. Intense you know they were fighting not for themselves and the soup line was fighting not for herself as a whole would be shown as a leader as a president while they were fighting for the rights of bill equal to freely elect the leadership that there were only warrants and i think that these are what made them different from. Well to go boom and surf. Around europe or what exactly does this precipitous prize mean for the belarussian opposition. Well i think that it means that bill was people are not so low face to face with the stick that all real. Belittle people feel is support from the side of the European Community and from the side of the Global Community but the whole world actually source on what is happening and below groups and the whole world has its or to or dont use democratic hold. And what impact a high paying this prize will have on the movement. Well you know its very hard to say i followed any particular way back but i think that this is just a protest. Note that the fact that these that were worse. Given to. Break. The actual event or stop all people also wearing clothes in this process. But i think that its a you know we will need the overall support role for the European Community. And immigration from year to see it global to the old or old to. Roost and i hope within a couple of months. These words you will be finished and well get to the point you need to to build the. Democratic red state why do you think the European Parliament chinese amazement so they so want. Well dick morris no this is the real leader big story at least these year. Or so. Its not very overwhelming when you know the world will start fighting against dictatorship and the particular. Feature all for a Movement Builder whos there it. 3 men were taken out of the race 3 brave women are substituting them and so you know just chill those fires i know it never happened before and when the when and where fighting it youngsters day push normally you know just its their prerogative but not we and below whos worse has these distinct features so prodemocratic will mess up the whole i think that dont use nation war because the original lucian and all just saw the last people already have been there and you cannot stay in our world when you are 80 why most dont belong to speak well and then what is happening in connection to it lucas encouraging war on valarie its a condo part of the belarus in Opposition Movement thats being the winner of this is human rights prize awarded by the European Parliament thank you. And with less than 2 weeks to go before the us president ial election intelligence officials believe that iran and russia have interfered in the upcoming vote they accuse iran of being behind recent intimidating emails targeting American Voters in multiple states and also alleged that tehran and moscow time Voter Registration details with the goal of altering the vote democratic vote is in at least 4 battleground states for saved a mouse that threatened we will come off to you if the recipients didnt vote for president donald trump. Sumi some of scandal is in washington she gave us more detail about the if the f. B. I. Is investigating investigation from iran and russia got their hands on Voter Registration data they use that information the arraigning groups did to send these threatening emails as you mentioned and as you said in those emails that said vote for President Trump or else now these emails were actually signed by the group the proud boys this is the White Supremacist Group some of our viewers might remember that the president refused to denounce in the 1st televised debate and this is a group that does support the president but that was a false flag there is a lot of information we dont know at this point ill tell you what that is thats crucial we dont know which groups were behind this we dont know if Voter Registration databases themselves were accessed because that would also be a really key here and we dont know what the intent was the f. B. I. Director said the intent was clearly to hurt President Trump but if you think about it if democrats were intimidated from going to the polls or perhaps didnt cast their ballots that certainly would hurt shoebite and so we are hoping for more information to be revealed in the coming days. Day to see me some must come to and racism and Police Violence have become King Campaign issues offer a series of killings and the months of protests that ensued in minneapolis the Police Killing george floyd sparked global protests people are still trying to come to terms with what happened many are asking if trust between police and citizens can ever be restored. Minneapolis may 28th the 3rd precinct building of the Minneapolis Police Department Said the blaze during protests against the death of george florida in police custody. The Burning Police station becomes a symbol for the protesters fury for their demands for an end of Police Racism and patellar. 5 months later abandoned boarded up and secured with cement barriers producing 3. Still a symbol now signifying the citys struggle to make the changes the protesters demand to the local Police Department and how police against them many apple is still. Dealing with the fall out and the controversy and the trauma so rounding george being killed by the Minneapolis Police department there is definitely a breakdown in terms of trust between our elected officials and their constituents as well as between their constituents and our Law Enforcement Community Volunteers from being a cop a moment to prepare to patrol the neighborhood then the 9th ward of minneapolis where george floyd done christian and local and growing in number we just thank you for your blessing. As we walked the streets of the group recently recognized and supported by the city is filling the gap created by the collapse of trust between police and the black community with Police Patrols largely absent from this part of town they have taken on the task of proactively protecting the community from rising crime we want to have selected police are not community who live in our community who look like a community and then thered be a better pace like how we can wreck talk to them and how we communicate to each other Minneapolis Police recognize the need for urgent and fundamental change says the p. D. Chief eric force he sees new recruiting strategies this critical for any Real Progress one of the best things you can you can have as a department thats as reflective of your community as you can get it especially people from the community and thats really what were pushing forth stresses that from his point of view there are at least 3 of the Top Priorities for reform there needs to be deep in gauge went with the community secondly would be trainings with how we deescalate situations and lastly what that requires all of this. Is the personnel to do that but words are not enough so as theyve been a local activist with a group called communities begins Police Brutality theres been talk of reform theres been some radical talk from the city council but there has been virtually no action whatsoever and were not seeing a lot of initiative for action from the city council the mayor the police chief the city council sort of abolishing the Current System of policing but was hit by a sobering reality check. My advice to other cities who are facing the same challenge is to ensure that when you are going to divest from our your crew policing system that you really do ha have. A much longer and proactive plan for instituting alternatives that have been tested and worked after hours of patrolling the neighborhoods the a government decide to go home theyll be back tomorrow night and the night after that the changes they were pushing for you know its kind of more of a generational change you know because we want to make it better for our children their children and this is this is this is like our starting block right here you know as were trying to pave the way for. The time government has rolled back an emergency decree banning protests in the capital bangkok and had been put in place in an effort to calm antigovernment demonstrations that have been escalating for weeks but the measures failed to discourage tens of thousands of demonstrators from turning out for protests around major bangkok intersections demonstrators a demanding the time premiers resignation and reforms to the monarchy. For more on this lets bring in philip show well from bangkok hes the edge a correspondent for the british newspaper the sunday times philip protests is said that withdrawing the measures was not enough what are they demanding now. Well theyre demanding what they were demanding before this decree was put into place you have to remember that theyve been on the streets for 4 months and they have a series of demands and those remain those remain from 2 foremost for them and those are the resignation of the current government now thats led by general. He staged a coup in 2014 and then kind of came with maintaining office last year under a controversial election that the opposition claim was unfairly held there demanding a change to the constitution which includes unelected senators and which and embeds the current higher up top down system and most contentiously like lupul reform with the role of the family which is a long venerated institution its been a complete to even discuss the political and military financial previously but some of the students are gone now and that is its on their demand so all those are still outstanding and the Prime Minister said he will call. A session apart and it still recession opponent which is otherwise in recess next week but theres no indications that the government is really going to offer them any substantial narrow 3 major areas of demand. Some of them high profile late as were arrested during the crackdown well the rollback mean anything different from them what can they expect. At those protest leaders. Some of them are still behind bars and some have been bailed but theyre facing very serious charges including sedition and several of them and the but the the the protest organizers and the protesters are now adopting the manager there you know we are all leaders they are absorbing theyre taking kind of the hong kong approach in last year which is that where were leaderless were not dependent on particular individuals theyre spreading messages via social media theyre spreading messages on the street and so those protest leaders do face very serious charges and one of the main demands of the protests is that those charges are dropped of also demand from human Rights Groups and opposition parties but also theyre not letting that undermine the actual strength of their own of the demonstrations they mentioned no Real Movement from the government so what about from the royal family have you heard anything have we been hearing anything from them. That the palace does not comment on Current Affairs and we wouldnt expect them to know their modus operandi but the king did last week meet a group of former communist rebels who were once fighting to overthrow the monarchy and he pointed out to them what the nation needed was people who love the country and people who love the institution why would she meant the royal family so you know he was sending a message that we wouldnt expect him to say anything directly certainly not to address these rather extraordinary and unprecedented demands by the justice for reform of the institution and its right philip shall from the sunday times many thanks for time thank you. Well how far could Plastic Waste become a part of underwater life thats the question swiss director pascal schelde li set out to explore in his short movie the beauty its an imaginative take on one of the most pressing issues facing our Planet Plastic pollution now shelled lee has won a student oscar for the animation which he created as part of his final faces at one of germanys top film schools. The beauty takes us on a journey into the depths of the ocean to get a book watch a little longer. And you realise its no documentary but a parable is from about pollution. Starring characters made of Plastic Waste and just. A basic concept was to tell the story poetically and with irony. All the videos you see featuring distressed whales and turtles are so shocking and somebody oh i have the feeling weve become emotionally immune. Filming in postproduction took a year and a half. Of the characters like the pufferfish made of bubble wrap. Over the school of fish made of flip flops where digitally animated and later integrated into night action underwater footage. Does concert film i think the concept only works if it looks realistic if it makes you believe that thats what really im already all made of a car tire that just swam by. Shall please photo realistic aquatic fantasy invites us to suspend our disbelief and dive into a world in which nature and waste deal with police and by entering into a secret now. Traill symbiosis but the film doesnt spare us the harsh reality. It ends with a look at the ever growing forest of synthetic refuse thats gradually suffocating operations and everything that lives in them. Butane has rightfully one accolades the International Student oscar propels pasko show bullies are the appeal to save the seas into the running for the best animated short in the main oscars competition. I am not as banksy is known for his graffiti paintings that spring up overnight on buildings all over the world but now its his parody of a man a masterpiece thats gone under the hammer be outworked show me the monterey trashes the familiar idyllic resolutely pond same with consuming garbage theres even a traffic cone floating in the water one like a bias snapped up the works at 8400000 euros thats equivalent to almost 10 1000000. 00 restorations its 400000. 00 like you had a past 15 years.

Youre watching state of a new life from but a focus on europe is up next a change about more news for you at the top of the hour up until then you can always count today on our web site thats the date up any time rebecca raises a lot of. Past to silence it. Breaks it is training friends and languages Family Business like many english sheep farmers their business depends on european explorers without a Free Trade Agreement with the e. U. That could soon all be over just like the future of farmers and their sheep only time moved tell. On europe. Next on d. W. M. Entered the conflict zone fronting the powerful. More than 2 years ago the new government in armenia came to power in a socalled velvet revolution with the hope of fundamental democratic reform my guest this week from europe on his armenian foreign minister star of manasseh kanya how much responsibility does armenia back for the conflicts escalate conflicts of. 60 minutes on. Beethoven is for me. Is for you. Beethoven is for help. Beethoven is for her. Is for. Beethoven is for us. Beethoven is for the moment. Beethoven 2020 the 250th anniversary here on. You. Would. Be. Welcome to focus on europe its great to have your company today the 2nd coronavirus wave has arrived war and more European Countries are reporting Record Numbers of infections and this has led to fresh car fuel lockdowns and National States of emergencies but small country of belgium has one of the highest infection rates in europe the government is worried that the pandemic my to get out of control the country also has the highest numbers of deaths per capita on the continent covered 19 has significantly impacted our day to day lives from contact bands to social distancing to face masks but the virus has also changed lives those who have loved ones who have gotten sick or even died know all too well what this means like the 10 year old lorenzo he lives in a region in belgium that was among the 1st to be declared a corona hotspots back in march and his story tells more about the horrors of the pandemic than mere facts and figures can. Before corona didnt know loneliness now he does every day i sleep here. And think i miss something. Here. And its just not right with the 10 year old misses his grandfather luke they were inseparable grampa was the best you know pretty happy yeah i was happy lorenzo lived with his grandparents for years and they took him everywhere luke was always the one to pick lorenzo up at school but when his grandfather got kovi 1000 in march and became the 1st known victim of the virus in their hometown of st Truman Lorenzo was left confused and angry. I if corona wasnt here on ballot. Nothing of this would have happened his grandmother janine is still pained to recall how difficult it was to explain to lorenzo luke wasnt coming home from the hospital. I have to say that. He was so. Good at what janine had to deal with her own grief her daughters and her grandsons lorenzo was troubled hed never gotten to say goodbye these were glasses and those are all the names of. People that want to see him again. But then a chance arose for lorenzo to say farewell when his citys mayor decided to create a memorial in a local park around the theme of the flower forget me not. And i said from the beginning i want. From a little child who lost his grandfather of grandmother the mayor asked lorenzo if he would like to speak at the dedication he declined because i fought the were i gonna laugh at me. Well but. I dont know. I was just thinking something. That i said that. That when i set something about my grandpa i was going to cry was a medal for it. Maybe you can do it for grandpa. Oh yes i will do it for him so. At the ceremony with his mother nellie beside him lorenzo poured out his heart and touched everyone elses evil. And your grandpa i miss you very much i am mad about corona mad about what happened you were best and always are going to be the best investment and. When we were standing up there and people were listening to hear what you think they were thinking. Hes a brave boy. And no longer he realized and angry boy i was happy that i did it that i. Rode el out. And was happy. Everyone was. Around. And in the spring in this corner of the park where lorenzo throughout his sadness will be filled with little blue flowers each blossom a promise to those who are gone we wont forget you. A brave boy indeed. Boris johnson loves political poker when he was sworn in as the british Prime Minister last year and he promised he wouldnt deliver brags that well he has about 2 months to do that because a deadline is looming the ok and the e. U. Have until the end of this year to work out a trade agreement and that means long nights of talks in brussels in london with both sides reluctance to budge on their standpoints i reporter met a sheep farmers who are following the negotiations closely they are uncertain about their future because they export almost all their animals to countries. At langrish and his father frank own sheep farm assume the generations they have to find. Southern england the 2 men are very concerned about bricks it especially if britain and the e. U. Fail to negotiate a trade deal nearly half of. That we produce is exports its most of what we export is exports it into the e. U. So if any tariffs a person on tariffs again i should have between 40 and 50 percent so if those tariffs are applied. To go into europe. Destroy a large price. Its hard to imagine this landscape without its poppy thanks to them that the grass is so neat and you to fall. Today even languish in sa deciding which lambs are ready for slaughter after the avatar moves will be exported to from. The french like a lamb like this which has a good confirmation. They want them waiting around about 18. 00 to 20. 00 kilos as a carcass. Not too much fat just a little fat they are very discerning my like good quality lamb and we. Produce good quality lamb which comes off of grass on a clear day its possible to see right across to the french coast should be i tell you their. Father and son were over both against bricks it from the outset the cheek has still head into france but both promise the worry that border controls will lead to problematic delays in future. Go to the op a trois and then they go into a refrigerated truck and normally they killed one day and theyre in the paris market the next morning and the delays to that will cause big problems. But not all switches pharmacies were against him many of them or theyll take for it because they thought that being in the e. U. Entailed too much bureaucracy but Frank Langrish thinks it will get even worse post by accident no. There wont be any less ass Civil Servants still like paper so we will still have lots of people i thought the farmers in correctly blamed europe for the paper when it was like there are people that created lots of people. Many of the farmers to go to the weekend cattle auction they cant foresee a tough time ahead and. Still most here seem to feel this new sense complaining when thats quick to be done. Because just to make the most the situation that it will that the legislation is in place and whatever tires we have and get on with it we will be better off in the end but it will be very hot in the interim period all be on a start just starting out coaching on not looking for softening its going to be a long haul to hold we have bricks. At langrish its morita that many families wont be able to survive without subsidies and hes furious about the governments handling of brant. St. Its just disbelief that they can tell so many lies you know its its you know the hollow they wont be cute everything will be fine it will be the easiest Free Trade Agreement history. Where it is just proved it will be so much rubbish both father and son hope that what ever happens to the country at children will take the family farm into the next generation after all the countryside in kents need to change and. The much the horn is one of the most beautiful song its all be all and one of the National Symbols of switzerland the villages surrounding this peak attract thousands of tourists each year but now there is trouble in paradise the permafrost that helps hold together the alps is melting and rocks have began to move these effects of Climate Change are giving many locals sleepless nights. For nearly 3 decades curch spring has lived in the village of brilliants in the swiss canton of trouble. But for a couple of years now he and nearly 100 residents here have been very worried. For rogers who had 1st we had a certain respect for the situation then we felt a bit insecure. And now were just outright afraid. This is delinquency is facing 2 threats the ground in which the village stands is gradually sliding into the valley is now reached a rate of one metre 20 year some houses have been literally torn apart this one was later demolished the village has been slipping for decades but its never been as bad as this at the same time reince also faces the threat of a massive landslide that could bury it completely thats what worries court spring the most. At the edge of the village a taste of what could be to come. Like this one broke off the mountain last summer which bring with him his cellar when it happened and heard the crash. You know you just dont think how many will there be lots of rocks how many. Off the mountain the whole mountain will it hit the house. Had lots of houses the playground the old school building. Those are your 1st thoughts the mountain is being monitored to run the clock with radar g. P. S. Measurements and droom. If the alarm is raised the residents would only have a few hours to leave the village there would be no way of stopping a major landslide. It happened in 2017 in the village of undo in copeland. And in 2015 in evolution a chance enough ballots. That could landslides like these be predicted more accurate. And switzerlands most famous mountain a matter horn researchers are looking into exactly that question computer scientists. From the university of inspir is working with colleagues from various swiss universities to listen to the inside of the mountain to see if a landslide is imminent their liberal tree is at an altitude of 3500 metres and the mountain is extremely steep. For the past 12 years the scientists have been monitoring the stability of the rock because of Climate Change the permafrost is thawing which is the cement the holds the mountains together the matter horn is starting to crumble. I 1000 clients and i was in 2003223000 cubic metres of rock fell away here. And thats why the area up there is where it broke away. 3000 cubic meters of debris is the equivalent of 3 houses. The be. In order to predict events like that where accurately in the future theyve installed numerous measuring instruments that the sensors gauge every movement and vibration the researchers are trying to the crude the vibrations of the rocks and thats why theyre listening to the mountain as strange as that may sound in. A small black container in the heat but. Doesnt that size measure them the methane this is our seismic sensors which can enable us to understand the sound on the language of the mountain. Each section of the rock has a particular pattern of vibrations its possible to make them audible this is the sound of the matter here and amplified many times. The sense can vary. So very rare i just like a glass of water sounds difference when you top depending on how much water as it is the same here. A large volume makes a deep sound. If you only get high pitch sounds the volumes are dealing with a smoke. Here the rock is the glass of water if the crack is small the new section of rip that is vibrating feeling is smaller and creates a higher pitch to. If the crackers larger the sound is deeper than the year. But if we were to observe a marked difference suddenly in the seismic measurements for example a sound thats twice as deep. That could be a sign that another landslide is in the offing. Soon with a landslide before cast using the voice of the motion young boy to do that yet but he and his team plan to continue their research. This method is now also being tried out in britains. Spring was planning to live out his retirement here instead hes quick
