and it's loud and clear in london 2 growing anger at how police handled a vigil after the killing of 33 year old sarah ever. a curfew in brazil to curb soaring corona virus infections but thousands of people are rebelling against more restrictions. mean maz ousted civilian leader aung sang suu kyi is due back in court in the coming hours just as a country reels from yet more bloodshed. at least 39 people have been killed on sunday that's the highest number of deaths in a single day in the month and a half long crackdown on protestors the military has imposed martial law in parts of young gone that's me and my biggest city tell me check reports. to find protest is again months through the streets of mandalay on sunday in. strong voice and in large numbers they were clearly unbound by the violence of the day before that's when the security services shot dead at least 6 people in a crackdown in myanmar 2nd city and injured many more but with the death toll rising a call for revolution from the former vice president now leading a civilian administration in hiding. this is the darkest moment of the nation and the moment when the dawn is close this is the time for us citizens to test their resistance against the dark moments speaking of a new federal democracy the message was clearly aimed at bringing diverse ethnic groups together to overcome the army and their coup. when forming a resistance unity plays a vital role despite our differences in the past this is the time we must grip our hands together to end the dictatorship for good. these diverse ethnic groups are scattered across myanmar's borderlands divided they don't represent a significant threat to the military who've been fighting them for decades united they could be a considerable obstacle but there's long been distrust between these groups and the n l d the national league for democracy bringing them together would be no small task. in peaceful defiance protesters break the curfew to honor the dead in candlelit vigil is across the country you never heard nothing about me we come under street to show that the are against military dictatorship by breaking feel audit you post by do. leave you continue fighting that is the military continues with its brutal tactics on the streets calls for a revolution that's not so peaceful and they gain increasing support tony ching al-jazeera. joins us live now from the thai capital bangkok scott so the military continues its deadly crackdown against the protesters dozens being killed yesterday . yes there and absolutely as you mentioned this is the deadliest day so far since these protests started after that february 1st coup at least 39 dead now we need to know that one of those dead in that figure according to authorities in myanmar is a policeman who died also on sunday so $39.00 at least $39.00 dead you know we saw several districts a lot of violence in several districts are around yangon some of the industrial area that surrounds the country's largest city factories kind of stacked up in kind of the periphery of the city and that's where a lot of this violence took place in one district alone 22 protesters were killed so that's why we saw it really kind of the focus of this taking place on sunday yes and away from the protests got there are some reports of ostend not a number of chinese financed factories how is the army been responding to those fires. yeah this is actually in some of those areas where these protests are going on this is kind of just beyond that is where these factory districts are and yes there's there are several cases of arson and the chinese government responded directly saying that they expect the myanmar authorities to protect their citizens and assets in myanmar saying that their citizens were injured and trapped by this arson so that coming from the chinese government again that's a big thing for the military in myanmar because they're very close allies and very reliance on the chinese connection so that coming directly from from the chinese government as this is unfolding on sunday something also that's interesting is in a relation to that end the violence now 6 districts around yangon are now under martial law now you know when you look at what's been happening over the last several weeks there have been such restrictions on what people can do these gatherings we are seeing those are technically illegal so be interesting to see what they do more in these 6 districts this coming out in just the last couple of hours what they're going to do differently does that mean that any time anyone comes out on the street they're going to be arrested immediately so the posture could change in those 6 districts again these are around yangon where we saw a lot of that violence and the arson take place on sunday there just got hired to live in bangkok scott thank you now protests to opposite ends of the world are taking up the fight against violence directed at women and cities across australia thousands of joined rallies demanding justice for victims actions similar to what's been happening in the u.k. that mass demonstrations have been taking place against how police handled a vigil that followed the killing of 33 year old sarah ever we'll have more on that shortly but 1st to make a gauge in cumbria that political figures are also the target of protesters anger. allegations of right have dominated strongly in politics for weights and now thousands of the stradley ins have come out calling for an end to violence against women including in the nation's palm and it was sparked by shocking allegations by a former political advisor that she was allegedly raped by a colleague inside the defense minister's office so you know after there were allegations that attorney general christian porter the top floor officer in a stray and allegations of a historic right case against him from 30 years ago he categorically denies that but these issues within parliament house have absolutely resonated with the australian public many who have telly been telling their stories about sexual assaults and harassment bullying in the workplace but when it comes to pollinate house the real issue here is hell is this still happening it was back in 2012 that australia's 1st female prime minister julie raised issues and called out missile jenny and sexist behavior within the palm and and still way hearing stories of bullying sexual harassment and even woods but the australian government says this acting on violence against women is one of its kate priorities it has launched an independent investigations into the culture at palm house but many people who have been protesting in australia don't believe that goes far enough they want an independent inquiry into the allegations against christian christian porsche the attorney general even though police have closed that case. well as nicollette mentioned there have been allegations of sexual assault or harassment against several politicians and staff in australia's parliament there's been a rape accusations against attorney general christian porter dating back to 988 he says he's innocent separately former political advisor brittany higgins recently went public with allegations she was raped in parliament house in 2019 and claims of harassment against frank zumbo was a senior aide to a liberal party m.p. 6 woman made formal police complaints but in the u.k. prime minister barak's johnson has vowed to look at how women and girls can be better protected from violence he's made the pledge following criticism of police action at a vigil for sarah everett who was killed while walking home alone that in barbour has that story. anger outside police headquarters in london a day after a vigil ended in seems that shocked many people here in the u.k. demonstrators gathered mixing demands for an end to male violence against women with claims that the police are part of the problem at saturday's vigil the focus was clearly on the we've been victims of male violence here the focus has shifted with denunciations of police brutality hundreds had come to the south london vigil near where sarah everard went missing initially police kept their distance but the decision to move in on the crowds and the use of force to arrest women created outrage i. agree pretty quick tell the metropolitan police calls for a pool report the department said there were unanswered questions after she bit the mic chief chris a dick and london's mayor city column for the opposition labor party says he's unsatisfied with her account insisting the mic didn't honor its assurances the vigil would be released sensitively but despite calls from some for cressida dick to resign she's standing firm and strongly defending what happened. big crowd that gathered lots of speeches. quite rightly as far as i can see. this is now an unlawful gathering which poses a considerable risk to people's health cordin to the regulations. really invidious position from all of this to find themselves in labor's now set to vote against a new policing bill in the coming days this week in parliament we start a policing bell 300 or so pages one $170.00 something to all this and almost nothing almost nothing if you can believe it on violence against women and girls the
