I think the thing about this is that these protests have become part of the culture this is not something that just happened. On certain days in certain places that the police can surround and arrest people this is become something that has taken on a life of its own it doesnt need specific protest leaders it is becomes the its very widespread at least here in minsk where im standing now is a place where several journalists would to taint in thursday and again we saw police going off just trying to crack down on the coverage of these protests it is a totally open situation we have no idea where this is going but for day for today it definitely seemed like the people were not scared of the threats being put out by the government in recent days.

Without marking stern who works as a lawyer manages in this free time a corona taskforce. This is stigma and the general public against the us are also dogs and again its been a block formally peoples dream to have the dream are all sick and that there infecting people that its evil but its not true i dont think theres any other community that keeps the rules as strictly as we do a commitment of all mr b. Over 2400 residents are currently infected with call that 19 and their new cases every day in a brac is one of the most densely populated cities in israel. Yes boy.

Morgan stern and his team supported by the israeli army work every day of the week except about was some ultra orthodox communities forbid the use of modern technologies modern stands team rely on them every neighborhood is monitored to help isolate people who have tested positive for the virus and we check those people who were newly infected and send them out of the city if they agreed to it of course because we believe that the more cases we move out the less corona will spread in this city. A family of 8 needs to be placed in quarantine in jerusalem theyre taken by ambulance to one of the hotels that have been turned into Quarantine Centers run by the Israeli Military morgan stern is back on the road the virus keeps him busy all the time. Its hard its very difficult and very demanding but i dont give up someone is watching over us. Been a block is taking up the task to keep the virus from spreading further just like the rest of the country which is in the midst of a 2nd wave of the pandemic. Since the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic in china the nations government has faced criticism from other countries for the way it disseminate information that people in china are also fighting against what they say are beijings efforts to cover up the epidemic. The small neighborhood news hole mentioned german is a place filled with memories for john high. I didnt as i wouldnt last year my father used to sit at this place. Every time i come to these familiar places places i used to visit with my father. Im overwhelmed with grief at the same time i feel anger jungly john highs father was a veteran of Chinas Nuclear Testing Program he was a 100 is a gent but he spent his last years at his sons home in the coastal city of shenzhen about 1000 kilometers from one in january he broke his leg as a veteran he enjoyed good medical insurance but he was required to get treated in his hometown. So when he needed treatment i took him to. And when he was in hospital i sat by is that. This was my way to show my love for him. At that time coverage 19 was already spreading in the city and local officials were reassuring people that the virus could not be transmitted from person to person a lie as it later turned out. Johnny foster a good for one week before he died his body was immediately taken for cremation there was in my opinion the officials who covered of the disease in its early days had behaved like criminals. China since largely managed to control the spread of the virus life is back to normal in most places the government prides itself on its ability to contain new outbreaks through testing and quarantine the public mood has shifted from anger to appreciation of the governments response and those who want to remember the sufferings of the past and the pressure to keep quiet john lyons try to file a case in court against your story at least his case was rejected his social media accounts were shut down he has received threats from the authorities so this isnt. These events have left us relatives of the victims with a boundless feeling of pain its a pain that will stay for the rest of our lives but the local authorities just say this matter is already over their tone shows a complete disregard of other peoples lives. Moore says nichols. All thats left of his fathers live pictures of happier days john has not even retrieved his ashes from the criminal for fear of public outbreaks of anger the government requires that victims have to be buried in the presence of fishel the condition he received. Our last story brings us to germany after more than 2 years of work the Jewish Museum berlin has opened a new permanent exhibition it depicts jewish life in germany in the past and in the present day and tackles the topic of antisemitism in a new way whats life like for jewish people in germany today what challenges do they face and what makes them happy better than Jewish Museum has been thinking about this for the past 2 and a half years and offers up some answers in a new exhibition. A collection has been created in which jews can recognize themselves in their Living Environment but also non jewish visitors concrete unlearn a lot of the wealth of jewish and German Jewish relationships. A new start in the management of the museum dutchwoman haiti bared over in april sees the new exhibition as a long overdue reaction to cultural changes. First of all the audience is changed there are less than this people that have experienced the 2nd world war personally and many people came into germany they dont have a personal relation to the history of the 20th century in germany and of course many jews came to cheer many so its also a revival of jewish life how has jewish life changed in germany and where to problems still exist a video installation encourages dialogue about the ever present search for identity. Through Virtual Reality visitors can see destroyed synagogues restored to their former glory those who see what has been lost feel the loss protect their the keenly. The museum has taken center stage in germanys capital for 20 years a spectacular zigzag building by daniel leaders cant from above a broken star of david insight a desk in starting pass through German Jewish history in 2018 the exhibition welcome to jerusalem made headlines many thought it was too anti zionist when it a marriage that then director Peter Schaffer also supported the palestine related b.

Is it still a mobility revolution when it doesnt look like one rather checks out who shows itto wait and 2800 a normal enough to get buyers to go electric. Talking about electric cars in general. The more cars i drive the more i get used to that im still not convinced that this is the future but is the future already here our breakthroughs on the racetrack changing electric street cars rev reportedly adorning takes a b. M. W. I 3 out to 10 states for me lately pedigree. In the 1st 30 years in exile is more than the force employing throughout his journey facing a revolution on the autobahn nobody is literally only the cops were called like this guy as bad as that but would it be safer and better to have speed limits on the autobahn to find out in the latest edition of forever. I. I know everyone and welcome to a check on todays episode were testing. 208. 00 and the easy 2000 they both have the same platform so id say lets go. We took the smaller model for a spin 1st with the new to await the shows try to snatch buyers away from the popular renault zoe and it seems to be working. Demand has been stronger than expected. As the name already suggests 208. 00 its an electric car. You know whats 100. And 216. Different driving. And if you. Can make. A point which is pretty neat. As with most electric cars the. Top speed is electronically capped at 150 Kilometers Per Hour order to help preserve the cars. I. Battery will give you 340. Which is pretty ok considering that. There will usually be driven in cities or cities so thats ok. Talking about the battery give you 100000. Warranty on it and if something wrong. They will replace it. I. Looking at the exterior its hard to tell that this is the electric version of the seeing that it differs only slightly from its combustion engine. Moving inside theres a 3 d. Virtual cockpit as well as the latest infotainment systems. The batteries. Are the trunk of just the same. 8. 165 to 960 meters which is pretty nice. So of course every once in a while youll have to charge dzhokhar. If you. Home for the regular. It would take more than 24 hours. If youre lucky and you have a wall box at home will take you around 5 hours which is ok for plug in overnight and then theyll be good in the morning and if youre really lucky and you have a fast either at home all close to your working location then it will fill up the car from 0 to 80 percent in just. Minutes. Thank. The driving experience in the 280. 00 is pretty. Of course its pretty compact so its fun driving into curves rather fast and with good torque being directly. You can also speed out of cross pretty fast. As its usual for. 2 different driving modes. Or b. And b. If you remove your foot from the gas. And almost break braking in the regular car only at the end you will have to put your foot on that one because stop completely and be mowed it will just go 7 kilometers an hour which is like walking speed. So that was the key to a wait. Lets take a look at its s. U. V. Counterpart. The 2008. Even though the 2008 is based on the same plan its 10 centimeters higher than the 2 in. The interiors of the 2 models are more or less the same. If you open up the trunk of the eat 2008 youll find 434 to 1467 leaders which is way more than that. To offer but with both of these you will always find that back inside you will need that because inside the charging cable which will provide you with current. And therefore you will always have this in your trunk. Thanks. To 208. 00 and they also have the same drive train which leaves you with almost the same driving impression you see a little higher end. And you have a little more called for that say. Just like the 2 await the 2008 beechers the latest Driver System systems to help keep you safe such as lane Departure Warning active brake assist traffic sign recognition. Cruise control with stop function. Quite a few by now and ive always liked their interior especially the Steering Wheel because its so small compared to Steering Wheels and other cars. Offers an optional Premium Sound system with 10 speakers and with these electric models as quiet as they are you can sit back and really enjoy the music. So my final. Both pretty neat. If i had to choose 1208 simply because im not that much into. Talking about electric cars in general. The more i drive the more i get used to that im still not convinced that this is the future especially standalone future theres still so much work to be done especially if you look at the range of the car and charging times in the future. These numbers then this could be a pretty good alternative. Nuku show each a weight has a starting price of just under 30000. 00 euros but in germany higher incentives for electric vehicles knock off around 9000. 00 for a final price of just under 21000. 00 euros. Moving up to the larger 82008 s. U. V. Will set you back around 4500 euros more. If you want more red check out our you tube channel.

You think about the tires is not a bad move. But. Its the 1st time that im driving an electric car and theyre supposed to be very boring but sustainable but i would like to find out how much fun can they be at least. You can keep. It personal well i have to admit i really like the color of the car because it fits my jacket. Secondly. Its kind of small which i like and then if you check the tires really small and thin i wonder how the grip is on the streets. Theres only one way to find out by taking it to the track. But. The group of the tires is not bad it feels really good. You know its actually fun to drive through the like is. That shake the exhilaration. In the 1st 30 meters exhilarates more than the porsche im pretty sure you know this car is something for the city something you know luxury city car i could not imagine being this on the formula you truck or Something Like that well actually the i 3 its the standard safety card at all for me what you race is its no match for the racing cars though which topped out at 240 Kilometers Per Hour.

Its a fun tool to have one day for a few hours but i could not imagine driving at every age on every basis because you know just to idea but i have to charge it somewhere like really freaks me out of here i dont know if it kind of lost and i wonder if i still get home im kind of worried about it though like i was driving this car for like 3 hours now and i still only have 35 percent of my energy bedroom left. And thats just by dozens of b. M. W. Experts investing a huge technical effort into family over the years they have mission to enhance efficiency of electric motors. And about that we. Picked. The need we moved me for the good of your business those of us. Here. Ration doesnt really do it for me to be honest i was driving today like from what you can tell there so no surprise that i have to take a pit stop after just 200 kilometers. No im really lucky today i found this charging station could take me quite a while blood so i mean starting at least. It takes around 15 minutes at the fast charging station to get traded percent thats a serious slowdown for me with my hectic daily routine business when youve heard. Determined to close its rhythms on me but i find myself enjoying just chilled out and sustainable electric more and more. I want. To have our lives pumping man germany is literally the only developed country where cars like this can go as far as they can have. All the building them in the u. K. When the contrail been there anyway thats what were going to find out Something Like germany and why i like them so offsets with spain. As a german you grew up knowing that it is better for racing point cars with my younger brother so might that basically pushing everyone off the street who is not doing 200 kilometers an hour. And the german car industry makes you believe that driving as fast as you can is the way to go. And weve got the perfect right straight to do it all of the love it and ill give. You. The 1st real job on was opened in 1932 between born and cologne it had a speed limit of 120 Kilometers Per Hour. That the nazis took poa and claimed they had built the 1st one and. They insisted on calling it. The nazis also got rid of all the speed limits the only time they came back was really the 70 call during the whole crisis and it was several 100 kilometers an hour and the government even wanted to keep it the federal slaves. Into long. I just 100 to get. Home was a person drive this car there is 100 kilometers limitations everywhere. The sad reality is you cant go flat out everywhere on the german altar well were supposed to driving very fast and were stuck in a traffic jam and thats also reality of the glorious. Yes we do have traffic jams and construction sites as well in germany even worse about a 3rd of the german autobahn has speed limits and its recommended that you drive 130 kilometers on the other parts recommended you cant get fined if you drive faster. Thats why 130. Because the 970 alone more than 20000 people died on germanys roads which got the conversation going about speed limits. And 977 a large scale comparative study concluded a speed limit reduces crashes by 9 to 11 percent and deaths by 20 to 23 percent. But a specific speed limit was no fly with the german public and the hugely influential Automobile Club 80 ac even campaigned against it so we ended up with a recommended limit of 130. 00 to find out how bad high speed crashes really are im taking an accident researcher for a spin in my ridiculously low. Overpowered jack if you. Could pop one has been reviewing Car Accidents for over 15 years for german insurers the people that pay for all those crashes because really have to speed right now you would automatically lose your driving license hes joking of course. But for someone who researches accidents for a living well. You are yeah thats more like it you are who. He laughed speed hes german after all but lets get serious again what does crashing higher speeds actually mean. In the formula for Kinetic Energy velocity has a quadratic effect that means that an increase of just 10 k. Me creates proportionally a much higher amount of energy. So even driving just a little bit faster greatly increases the risk of life changing injuries worse studies estimate that every extra kilometer per hour pushes the number of crashes by 4 percent but it is also true that there are other countries that have a speed limit in place and people die from on the planet. Just look at the Czech Republic the United States and its only for example but the u. K. And denmark also have speed limits and fewer deaths per month. The problem is that these statistics are fairly comparable because of so many variables. Types of vehicles. And visibility. One thing is for sure germanys kind of street does not want the general speed limit it pushes the sales pitch all to ban tested like a drug to all you people outside germany who want to drive mind lonely fast cars and still feel say. You should. Feel safe until you dont. Care. Any weakling can drive a 250 came age i think he means me but even for good drivers things can go sideways very fast zuki things change must come and visit so i think we need a speed limit that most people would accept and i think that would be 150 kilometers an hour that were still hours to get from a to b.
