The police had warned that choose day would be very dangerous it was the pitched battles carried on into the night with protest is defying repeated Police Warnings for people to stay off the streets even diners ignored the call though. This clash spread from one side of Hong Kong Island to the other and then back again police a day earlier banned all marches but people still took to the streets not to celebrate 70 years of chinese communism but to mourn it but everyone can come up to there were may have loved has tomorrow this is an illegal notch designer are you all or will we all know there were more than a 100 arrests some of the most intense violence was on the other side of the harbor in cow loon a much watched video on social media appears to show a policeman shooting a young protester in the chest with a pistol the Hong Kong Police force say it was in selfdefense but this was the 1st time someone had been wounded from a Police Bullet since the protests began almost 4 months ago by quite. A large group of protesters were attacking Police Officers despite warnings from the police the assailant still continued the Violent Attacks the Police Officers lives were under serious threat to save his own life and his colleagues lives he fired a live shot at the assailant here we must again warn all rioters must stop all illegal acts police will continue to enforce the law seriously the anger of recent weeks had been building up to this day the most important date in chinas political calendar this year. Many train stations and shopping malls were closed in the security clampdown. Just a few months ago hong kong was regarded as one of asias most law abiding cities a model of Good Governance now all of that has been turned on its head with the police left to solve what is effectively a political problem these prochoice in a protest is also see themselves as defenders of hong kong. Todays the 70 birthday of our model and i wish our madeleine to have prosperity to have peace people to be happy National Day Celebrations here were low key this year the annual flag raising ceremony was held in a secure area well away from the protests which marred what was never going to be a day of celebration adrian brown Al Jazeera Hong Kong while unsurprisingly was very different picture on Mainland China as it marks 70 years since the communist party however and the peoples republic of china was formed rob matheson reports now from beijing. Aircraft thunder through the skies above beijing Armored Vehicles rumble through chan and square a display of chinas military strength as president xi jinping calls for economic and political confidence and sends a message to hong kong. We have to maintain that peaceful united one country to assist them. To keep hong kong and macau is a long term prosperity at the state realty 70 years ago when jan and square communist Party Chairman mao tse dong announced the founding of the peoples republic of china. In the following 27 years most socalled great leap forward plan to boost farming and Industrial Production led to famine and the deaths of an estimated 30000000 people his cultural revolution clamped down dissent a year after maos death in 1986 new leader dench helping declared china would open up internally and to the outside world the china of today bears little resemblance to the china of chairman mao the new middle class is getting wealthier and the countrys transformed itself into an economic global power but one of the central messages of things celebrations today seems to be a cautionary one yes we should acknowledge what china has achieved so far but there could be tough times ahead. For president xi as centralizing and strengthening control in beijing some of the president s political rivals have been swept up in his crackdown on corruption as well as the ongoing protests in hong kong and allegations linked to human rights the trade war with the us is forcing chinas economy to slow down this is a not a adversity of High Expectations that is going to be very glorious in the near future its an anniversary in which we look back on the china has been able to attain and we talk about a new era of sacrifices and struggle in 1800. Tenement square saw bloodshed when prodemocracy demonstrators stood up against tanks in 29 china is determined to show that its military is stronger than ever but the success of president xi jinping whose leadership may depend on how he handles chinas newfound respect pretty rock matters algis in beijing. A little earlier i spoke to vaudrey why hes a former diplomat at the British Embassy in china and now an associate fellow at Chatham House here in london he says violence has been escalating for so long in hong kong that tuesdays shooting was almost inevitable i dont think its a huge turning point it is a sad escalation and it is really sad that this young man has been so badly injured it was sort of coming because the demonstrations were getting more violent and the Police Reactions were getting more violent and sooner or later something horrible had to happen and it has now happened what the demonstrators want i think and the people of hong kong want is some kind of reaction from their government to show that their government is sort of on their side and pushing for democracy and you know better governance in hong kong because i think thats part of the problem that you know people just feel lack of trust in the way that the government has been handling all this and they want to see it working better. At least 2 people have been killed and more than 200. 00 injured in iraq after antigovernment protests turned violent more than a 1000 people marched on to here square in the central baghdad many of them students angry at him lack of the Job Opportunities as the situation deteriorated to be seen as live stun grenades and tear gas thousands of the injured are members are going back Security Forces smaller protests also elsewhere in the country and around congress for now from that. Event started beginning around about lunch time here in baghdad when there was a very small protest that took place in Tahrir Square it was very quickly dispersed by iraqs Security Forces however there was then a call made on social media for more people to come to the square around 6 oclock people started gathering and the numbers became bigger and bigger what were hearing is there were thousands of people out on the street theres no official figures actually to say how many people there were but what we did see was very quickly an escalation of violence the police pushed back the protesters as they tried to march on a bridge to go into the former green zone which is where still a lot of the foreign embassies based they were pushed back and then what was happening is they were moved into different parts of central baghdad and they were pitched battles between the police and the protesters the police used life they used rubber coated steel bullets they used water tanks cannons to come and try to disperse the crowd and its only going for a while now its got a lot of people in the government very worried out of one of the most influential shia clerics tweeted saying the government must look into exactly what went on them how these events unfolded and he hes also very interested. Because his party is a crucial part of the government so hes effectively asking the government to investigate itself now we are hearing that there is concern about these protests spreading it wasnt just in baghdad it was in nasiriyah and it was in not just as well in the south so what people are very concerned about to be in the government is that these protests may develop into a nationwide movement now on the social media people been sharing the videos from the scene itself it is clear that the violence was significant certainly more significant than weve seen in a few years here in baghdad what happens next remains to be seen but theyre all calls already well more people to come out on the streets in the coming days the chairman of 3 of the house committees investigating dawn comes devens with ukraine have accused the u.

With more on this i mean what can you tell us about the exchange between pump aoe and the democratic chairman. Well barbara both sides claim that they are trying to protect these witnesses but the bigger question is who do the witnesses actually want protection from and that is an unanswered question because these individuals interesting lee are implicated in this ukrainian scandal but they may not be de facto trump defenders who are we talking about one is the former u. S. Ambassador to ukraine marie yvon of h. She was recalled under sudden circumstances last may and her name came up in that phone call between President Donald Trump and the president of ukraine in which trump was pressuring the ukrainian president to open an investigation into trumps own domestic political rivals he said on that call that yvon of h.

And what about trump himself whats his reaction been to all of this. Right well the president did not have any Public Events scheduled today but he was publicly airing his grievances on twitter in a series of tweets he again tried to discredit the whistleblower who remains anonymous he asked why he the president was not quote entitled to interview the whistleblower he said this whole investigation into his dealings with ukraine is a hoax now that alissa did a Critical Response from a member of trumps own party this is senator Chuck Grassley who is the senior most republican senator he said that this whistleblower should be heard and should be protected not exactly a scathing rebuke but it is evidence of perhaps growing discomfort and concern within the republican rank and file barbara.
