Grows in the european union. Breonna taylors family says kentuckys legal system failed her and vows to keep protesting until the officers involved are charged. Lebron james and his teammates beat the den berg nuggets beat the denver underer just one game away from the finals. Welcome to the program. We begin the hour in egypt with reports that at least two protesters have been killed after thousands defied a Police Crackdown to protest the government for a sixth straight day. Dozens were arrested in raids ahead of the demonstration. That did not stop people exposing their anger over corruption, a deteriorating ,conomy, poor Living Conditions and the president. Despite the threat of arrest or even death, protesters took to the streets in several areas across the country on friday. Ragecalled it a friday of to demonstrate their opposition to the rule of the president and demand that he resign. Heard inike this were cairo. In the epicenter since protests militaryt sunday, personnel were deployed in force. This latest wave of antigovernment and antimilitary rule, protests were triggered to demolish entire neighborhoods across egypt under the pretext that the homes are built illegally. These neighborhoods house some of the countrys poorest communities, who have already brunt of theg the with any unable to cope increase. 70 live under poverty or are on the brink of poverty. That is a situation that is untenable. Political, social and constraints. 2500 people have been arrested just this week. On charges of terrorism because they were protesting in the street. We know the terrorism charges in egypt other ways in which the state clamps down on any voices of dissent. A former army officer turned Opposition Leader now in jail. Supporters, particularly those who control egypts media, will claim these reports are marginal and insignificant, but the way the state is dealing with the protesters would suggest otherwise. Human Rights GroupsLike Amnesty International have already denounced mass arrests of demonstrators over the past few days. Egypt is under six consecutive days of protest. The slogans have been demanding an end to sisis rule. While the number protests may gradually, sisis notr grip on power does seem to have loosened yet. What makes this latest wave of protests different to previous ones . Theres a geographical element to it, that these protests, if it has been sporadic or something that has been a bit more coordinated, have shifted away from trying to break the security barriers that have been established around the main squares and metropolises and big cities and decided to make themselves heard even in these smaller, narrower streets of marginal towns and rural areas. Therefore, while it may not give you the same spotlight as to rear square would, it gives them the freedom to at least gather in not necessarily huge numbers, but enough numbers to make themselves heard. Its also very difficult for security apparatuses to operate the same way they are because of the nature of those streets as well. Theseare to look at where protests are taking place across the nile, across rural area farming communities, much more underprivileged communities what makes it different is explaining ine the news report, a lot of these people not only do not have anything to lose, youre talking about People Living in shantytowns, whose homes were ransacked by police and security forces, their belongings thrown out into the streets moments before bulldozers came and tore down their houses taxi drivers or unemployed People Living on less than two dollars a day, who now do not have a roof over their heads. That desperation is far greater than the fear that has been instilled by a regime that has massacred hundreds of people and imprisoned thousands or tens of thousands of others. In that, there is something unique. Also important is that with the lack of pluralism in Political Society that has emerged over the past few years, the sporadic nature of opposition that is a lot more organic, not being coordinated by any specific group, even if you are to think of somebody like muhammad ali, ultimately, he was not known to the egyptians before 12 months ago. Therefore, the vast majority of those coming out onto the streets are coming out from kind toinstinctive desire or need standing, andwn thats what makes this different than previous ones. Nonresident at the two rear institute for middle east policy joins us now via skype the r institutethe tahri for middle east policy. How badly are egyptians poverty and poor living standards, particularly in wake of the covid crisis . Even before covid, poverty was a huge problem in egypt and following the imf program and the austerity measures that were implemented. The World Bank Estimates again before covid that 60 of the population was near or below the poverty line, so what we have now are reports that unemployment has risen, invariably pushing more egyptians into poverty. This quite a lot of strain on the economic population. How was the government likely to deal with this . We have these protests springing up, but is it likely they will die out, particularly if the government responds with repression . We saw protests of a similar nature a year ago. It seems in this case, as well as having a lot of very young people, if you look at these videos, you will find a lot of minors are protesters. I think its really too early to tell what will happen. Last time around, there were mass arrests. Over 4000 people were arrested. Rumor has it the government was actually quite surprised to find how otherwise largely apolitical people they arrested were. They were driven by economic grievances we are talking about, and that led to some kind of soft language from the government afterward. That does not mean it reduced the repression. That was kind of in tandem, but there was a tweet from sisi that words you, and there was about the need to address austerity. What does it do to help these people . Not much. Ultimately, the amount of assistance pales in comparison to the scale of the problem. At the beginning of covid, we to some cash transfers workers, but they reached roughly 50 of the people working in informal labor. They do not have good infrastructure for distributing this, and basically, programs to get cash in the hands of poor 1 3le suffer cover about of the population that lives in poverty, and that was before covid, so there is inadequate infrastructure for dealing with poverty in egypt, and the government keeps squeezing with this new conversation about informal housing and does not take enough responsibility for how that is possible. Its not realistic that in a country in which you cannot hold a sign on the street for 30 minutes without getting arrested, that these 10, 11story buildings were erected without any complicity from the state. Until there is accountability for officials for their role, officials will continue to punish the people who built these houses, without addressing that does not really address the problem. Thank you very much. Interesting to get your thoughts on this. Youre watching the newshour live from london. Much more still ahead. She changed the course of american law. Justice ruthurt Bader Ginsburg makes history again, becoming the first woman to lie in state in the u. S. Capitol. Weeks oftions says flooding have cost people to lose their homes in south sudan. Rafael nadal not happy going into this years french open. We hear from him later in the program. Number of confirmed covid19 cases in the United States has passed 7 million according to Johns Hopkins university. Thats more than 20 of the worlds total reported infections. This as a study by researchers says the recent reopening of college and University Campuses could be linked to more than 3000 additional u. S. Cases a day. Infectious disease expert Anthony Faucher he has said he would like to see the number fall below 2000 a day before flu season starts in october. Dr. Thomas frieden is a former director for the centers for Disease Control and prevention. He is now president and ceo of resolve to save lives. Skype from now via new york. The United States has passed 7 million cases of covid19. How worried are you about this surge getting much worse as we go into the winter months. Its clear that different , ass of the United States different parts of europe, are in very different places. You have the northeast and a few other states that have relatively low rates and have. Ept those low for many weeks one thing i think we need to be clear about is that we dont know what the flu season will look like this year. In the southern hemisphere, there was not a bad flu season. It may be that you dont have this kind of double trouble of the flu plus covid, but we do expect to see more covid spreading in colder weather. That would be expected, and with people coming back to schools and colleges with not having consensus around mass clearing, not having good programs to test and train people, the u. S. Does not have the upper hand on the virus right now. Are you optimistic that there can be a vaccine before the end of the year . On the one hand, we have learned a lot more about immunity to covid, so it does appear a vaccine may be possible. You can be guardedly optimistic about that, but we dont know for sure, and its really important to be humble. This is a new virus. Predictions from various individuals really are without a foundation in science and fact. The fact is this is a really bad pandemic. It should not be underestimated. It can come back if you turn your back on it, and you need a sciencebased approach that puts Public Health first. We hope there will be a vaccine rolled out through 2021, but thats not a shirt, and even if there is a vaccine, its not a fairytale ending to this pandemic. We are still going to need to be careful about indoor spaces, be careful about handwashing and shaking hands and wearing masks, do a good job of finding cases and contacts and outbreaks so there is not spread. I think we need to get past the concept that we just need one thing and this will go away. We need to chip away at the risk of covid and recognize that we are all connected within and among countries, and it is in all of our best interests to Work Together to stop this pandemic and also be much better prepared for the next one. You said that it is important to be humble. Has there been much humility or clarity in the governments approach to this crisis . I think, frankly, the u. S. Governments response has not been very effective and because of that, the death rate is high. The economic losses are high. When we look around the world or around the u. S. , the places that have done best have been guided by and fully supported Public Health and a scientific approach. Theres a misconception that Public Health and economics are in conflict. In fact, the places that follow Public Health intervals get their economy back faster, and that is something all of us can learn from. The u. S. Governments response has not been particularly effective, if its the messaging on masks, which was quite confused, or the problems scaling up testing, or the focus on the most important indicators or opening and closing in a granular sophisticated way to minimize economic harm while also minimizing the spread of disease. You think about scientific approach, but we have really seen the reverse of that, havent we . We have seen an attack on scientists, pressure on scientists, and evidence and facts around the coronavirus. Is that likely to change . See as much would attention fighting the virus as we see fighting the science sometimes, and we would be better off with fewer deaths and less economic dislocation. We saw that with mask wearing. We saw it with the shutdown. We saw it with reopening. We saw it schools reopening, and in each of those cases, and antiscience perspective backfired. It meant more spread of covid, more loss of jobs, more deaths. The same will be true for a vaccine. We need to follow the science and not cut any corners on safety. We need to get them out as soon and safely as possible, but go with an objective, transparent, open look at what the data shows. Dr. Thomas frieden, former director of the centers for Disease Control. Thank you. Countries around europe are reporting record numbers of coronavirus cases, as we heard dr. Frieden mentioning. A second way of tightening its grip on the continent. More people are being tested now then when the pandemic first peaked in march, but governments also attending to slow the spread without resorting to costly lockdowns. What is worrying to us is an increase in hospitalizations and an increase in hospitalizations. Not even two the end of september, we have not even started our flu season yet, so what we are worried about is the possibility that these trends are going in the wrong direction. Reported 15,000 new cases in the past 24 hours. Deathsalso confirmed 150 from the virus. Authorities in hotspot madrid warning of tough weeks ahead. The u. K. Reports almost 7000 on friday, a record high for the second day in a row. New restrictions have been imposed on several cities, and london could be next. Russia has reported more than 7000 new infections in 24 hours. Moscow has instructed hospitals to free up beds after new cases jumped almost 50 overnight.

All we are asking is to be heard. Outcasts. Ke city officials joined the protest, saying the government in paris did not consult them. I understand the anger of professionals. We have push them to the limit. Too big they are here, they are showing it, they are right. Frances government says the people must learn to live with the virus. These measures are temporary. They are necessary, but not arbitrary. Unfortunately, theres more risk inclosed areas without masks bars and restaurants. Its not the government saying this. Its international research. We must produce the risk. New covid cases are registered each day. Doctors in several regions say hospitals are under pressure. In paris, the government is also imposing more restrictions. Swimming pools will close as bars will have to stop serving at 10 00 at night. This cafe owner says the new rules are confusing. We dont understand at all. Why only bars . Bars and restaurants in our culture are a place to come together, a place where you can go after work to relax. If they dont come here, they will go elsewhere. They will buy wine and go home. It will be worse in clusters. Tocountries are battling contain the virus. Moscow ordered people to stay home. In spain, authorities ordered a partial lockdown in thehe madrid region, infuriating some. Its a shame because people are going to lose their jobs. The continuing uncertainty and restrictions are clearly taking their toll. While governments try to protect both economies and people, medical experts warn that their Health Situation is likely to get worse.

Of Breonna Taylor has jurymned a kentucky grand decision to charge only one of the officers involved in her killing in march. It comes hours after protesters defied a curfew on thursday to demand justice for the 26yearold hospital worker. They want the arrest and prosecution of all three officers involved of data in taylors shooting inside her home. The grand jury decided not to file charges in her hearing. Officer was charged for sring into a neighbor apartment. What i had hoped was he knew he had the power to do the right thing, that he had the power to start the healing of this city, that he had the power to help mend over 400 years of oppression. What he helped me realize is that it will always be us against them where we are never safe. Has beenendren covering this story and tells us about why Breonna Taylors Family Lawyers are demanding transcripts from the grand jury. What we want to know is did the prosecutor ask for charges to be referred . As we know, no one has been charged with that. Only charges that were levied were against a single officer for Reckless Endangerment, and that officer was charged because he fired into neighboring apartments seemingly indiscriminately, and there was a family of three, a white family, and that is the basis for those three Reckless Endangerment charges, but its not clear if anybody will ever be held responsible for firing the shots that actually killed Breonna Taylor. That is what people on the streets want. The prosecutor, the attorney general has not levied charges, because a federal investigation will look into if there was a violation of taelors civil rights. There is still a possibility of charges. That is what the family and lawyers were available. Protesters chased down another vehicle that swept its way through the rally. The driver of the white car tried to escape before being pounced on by protesters. Some began striking the car before it drove away. Police later caught up with the vehicle and arrested the driver. Paidrs of congress have final respects to Late Supreme Court justice ruth bader. Insburg who died last friday she was a transformative figure upheld by the left as a vanguard for general for gender equality and respected by the right for her friendship with conservatives. She has become the first woman to lie in state at the u. S. Capitol. We have more in ginsburg and the political earthquake caused by her death. A military guard escorted ruth Bader Ginsburgs casket up the steps of the u. S. Capitol, honoring a woman who helped transform life for millions of americans. It is with profound sorrow and deep sympathy to the family that i have the high honor to welcome justice ruth bader. Insburg to lie in state the Late Supreme Court justice was a champion for equal rights for men and women. Born to a world vastly different to the america of today. In the 1950s, despite her brilliant mind and dogged work ethic, she was demoted because of her gender and question for taking amans spot in law school. Her tenacity and painstakingly thorough legal record eventually caught the eye of president bill clinton, who nominated her to the supreme court. She sat on the high bench for 27 years. Her diminutive size belying her juggernaut status as a feminine on the feminist icon left. A pedestal built for presently can, she broke another barrier, becoming the first woman in first jewish person to be afforded the honor of lying in a state at the u. S. Capitol. As a lawyer, she won equality for women and men not in one swift victory, but brick by brick, casebycase, through meticulous careful lawyering. She changed the course of american law. Democratic president ial candidate and former Vice President joe biden was among those who paid their respect. At the end of a long struggle with cancer, Justice Ginsburgs dying wish was to have a new president name her replacement. Polls show a majority of americans feel the same, but President Trump plans to announce his nominee to fill the vacancy saturday. Trump will nominate a conservative judge, and Senate Republicans have the numbers to push through a confirmation possibly before the november 3 election. That would give trump a significant victory to tout to his base the creation of an ironclad conservative majority in the supreme court. Ginsburg coulds wield key votes for upcoming cases on health care and abortion rights, and as the president has acknowledged, could even help resolve any legal challenge to the election results. Those powder keg circumstances fewer than 40 days before voters choose their president all but guarantee contentious congressional hearings ahead, but for now, a last quiet moment beneath the u. S. Flag at half mast in honor of a woman who made the country more equal for individuals and more divided in politics. Still had on the program, rising cases, despite the swedish model.

And the second wave of coronavirus continues to take hold in europe. France has reported just under 16,000 new cases in the last day and 150 deaths. The fewas one of countries in europe that never imposed a nationwide lockdown. The decision led to a much higher death toll per capita than its nordic neighbors, though well below countries like spain and italy, but with infection numbers now rising again and swedes urged to limit social gatherings, we look at if swedens normal is sustainable. Six months after sweden triggered its coronavirus response, stockholm in the does not look too different from stockholm in the spring. While other countries go in and out of lockdown, the swedes have stayed open during the pandemic. The large decline in covid19 cases came to an end this week with 533 reported on thursday, the highest daily number since early july. The caution that existed in the spring has more and more been replaced by hugs and everyday life that for many seems to be a return to normal. From one of the worlds highest covid19 rates in the summer, sweden has dropped below countries that did not impose lockdowns, like france, germany, and spain. There have been just a handful of restrictions in place. The government says it is not planning to get harsher just yet. Schools have stayed open since march, and masks are a rare find. Oneweden, virtually no wears a mask. The Health Agency does not recommend them, saying it can make people more careless about social distancing. Individual responsibility and sustainability are the pillars of the swedish model, although they shy away from admitting her immunity as a major target. We would rather have a sustainable longterm regulation in place then go in and out of lockdowns. Ofit was the devastation elderly care homes behind most of the countrys nearly 6000 deaths to date. Critics now say it was not just a lack of a lockdown that was the problem. The government together with authorities was asking doctors treatment tove otherwise Healthy People with risk factors, to give them morphine instead of oxygen because we dont have oxygen in care homes. Thousands of elderly have died without oxygen that could have been otherwise saved. The care home watchdog has since reported that mistakes were made as a recorded more deaths in its three nordic neighbors combined, but now denmark, a short drive over the bridge, has overtaken swedens infection rate with the governments in copenhagen bringing in new restrictions last week. Its true weve seen a couple of weeks where cases in sweden have been going down, where they have been increasing, but weve also seen denmark testing much more than sweden. I think they just think denmark is doing ok and sweden just needs more tests. Sweden may have flatten the curve considerably since the dark days of spring and summer, but the surge of cases in some parts of the country suggests it is still far too early to know if the swedish model is working. Throughout the world, the spread patterns of covid19 main the months ahead could be even worse than feared. Andrew simmons access the statistics comparing europe and other countries like the u. S. And brazil, where there is a bigger and unrelenting crisis. Bad as lastbe as time or even worse . Us for9 has been with more than six months. ,veryone knows what it can do but understanding covid defeats some of the best brains in the world. Covid hastesting on exposed an increase in positive cases, yet death rates have fallen in some countries only to start rising again recently. Experts say theres been some complacency. All, you see it in a community, particularly younger 4 weeks later, it starts to spread to those who are vulnerable. Thats when one starts to see hospital admissions rising. Thats when one starts to see the number of deaths rising. I dont think we should be someved that just now in cases we should be seeing more cases but not more deaths. What the professor says is borne out by the statistics. Looking at spain, france, and the u. K. At the height of the pandemic, it is a sevenday rolling average, and these are infection rates. Spain in the seven thousands, france in the for thousands, the u. K. In the three thousands. September 23,o rolling averages are up. Spain with more than 11,000, france 10,000, and the u. K. , 4000. What is happening to the death rate at this stage . In april, it was measured in the hundreds. Getting more up to date, you will see they are rising again. Up what the experts have been warning about dont be fooled when infections increase and death rates go down. While europe grapples with the covid crisis again, in other countries, there has been no respite whatsoever. More than 21,000 infections of the United States on april 1. , and we picked up india with some of the most densely populated cities in the world. Move on to september 23 and the the shows nearly double infection rate. 42,000. Brazil not far behind. Look at india, the highest of all, approaching 90,000. Thats on april 1, the u. S. At six hundred nine, brazil 206. In september, its far worse. Deaths hovering around 700 in the u. S. And brazil and beyond 1000 in india. Theres another worrying factor underreporting in countries such as syria. Official figures show 116 deaths in damascus. Medical researchers say thats wildly inaccurate. Report, we would suggest they are far more withrd in the epidemic anywhere about 4400 deaths missed. There is no cure for covid yet. For now, no one can afford to ignore the science of statistics. Quick bit of news on a Ukrainian MilitaryPlane Air Force cadets having crashed in the countrys east. At least 22 people have been killed.

Underwearingin ceremony existential circumstances. Absent worthy heads of state and foreign dignitaries. Instead, and an audience of mostly soldiers and dignitaries. Becomes thelonel countrys new civil leader. His Vice President , the man who led the coup, in charge of security and defense. Mali is shaken, defeated, humiliated by its own leaders, and its our own fault. Home, a manfrom shot by the military. He supported the coup and now the transitional government, hoping that they will bring to an end corruption and bad governance crippling the country. Content of our leaders against our people needs to stop. We want the new leadership to bring an end to our problems in the suffering the people are going through. Million are displaced and almost half of the population are in need of urgent humanitarian assistance. Mullions rns of are the concerns of all of us. The obstacles are perhaps greater than many of us. Who is best positioned to address this issue if not the military . And probably trying to reorganize the country. This being said, here again, with the argument with the army, as a government issue. The army was accused of extrajudicial killings of the civilians they were meant to protect, the oversight of the armed forces, and addressing the problems of the people is in the hands of these men. They have 18 months to not only organize elections and ensure security but bring back trust to a broken political system that has so far failed the people. The activist whose story inspired the film hotel rwanda about the countrys 1994 homicide has founded a group to aid refugees, but he told his bail hearing he did not support violence.

He was held a hero for protecting hundreds of rwandans during the genocide. For 100 yearsding in sudan is causing disaster in neighboring south sudan. Over 500,000 people lost their organizations in what aid organizations are describing as a humanitarian disaster. More than half the population relied on outside help before the floods. This is what an estate look like after weeks of heavy rain. Villages and homes have merged, displacing residents and robbing them of their livelihoods. Most have seen violence that killed 300 thousand south sudanese and displaced more than 50,000. We have come here because of the floods. Our village is being completely destroyed, and we carried our children in plastic sheets to bring them here. We have nothing to eat except sheets because all the cattle we had were either killed or stolen in previous attacks. Since mid july, 625,000 people in 35 counties all over the country have lost their homes. A further 110,000 of the population in a neighboring state are displaced and in need of humanitarian aid. We need food, we need tents, we need blankets, and there is no medicine. More than half the population of rely on humanitarian assistance for survival. The Flood Disaster has made their plight even worse. The government declared a state of emergency six weeks ago. After five years of conflict, the worsening economy is another crisis. The central bank announced it was out of foreign currency reserves last month. The inflation rate is up 35 , which increases their risk of starvation. Remains asecurity major challenge. So many people need food, and internal displaced efforts from one state to another state has created a serious human care situation. Generally, fighting now remains the major challenge. Demands aurity also major challenge. So, too, is the threat of Waterborne Diseases such as malaria and cholera in areas with a fragile infrastructure, and the coronavirus pandemic is creating further difficulties. We need to continue to practice physical distancing and wearing our masks, but what we saw in communities today when people are actually try to run for their lives, they were having difficulty actually practicing physical distancing. It will take weeks before villages and towns affected by the floods begin to recover. Hope it will not take long. North Korean Leader kim jongun has issued a rare apology after his soldiers shot dead a south korean fisheries official near the border. In a letter, kim said he was very sorry about the incident. Our reporter says the north is making a concerted effort to improve relations with its neighbor. Quite a surprising developing. Its not often that north korea admits to making mistakes like this. Rarer still that they would go issue what appears to be a sincere apology. According to the president ial office, the apology has come personally from kim jongun, to say how sorry he was to have disappointed president of south korea, talking about this unsavory case and putting in place measures to prevent a similar current. The north says it has apparently carried out its own investigation, and they have pretty much confirmed the details of what we know happened, that apparently this was a south korean citizen on some sort of floating object that came across to the northern side of this maritime border, and he was intercepted by patrol boats and that north korean Border Guards fired a total of 10 rounds, 10 shots, at this individual. It then says that the crew of this boat set fire to the floating material, that this unfortunate individual had come across for. As a preventative measure against covid19. South korean officials said the north koreans set fire to this mans body, so there seems to be some dispute over that, but at least there seems to be some recognition that this did take place. North korea is apologizing for it, and there does seem to be a concerted effort by north korea to try to keep the door open to better relations at some point in the future.

Peter is here now with sports. Thank you very much. The Los Angeles Lakers are one win away from reaching the nba. Inals Anthony Davis inspired them to put them 31 up against the denver nuggets. The nuggets are often clicking denver had the moment him game three, but Anthony Davis got the lakers off to a fast start, making his first six shots before any of his teammates had even made a basket. It was not long before the others chipped in. This dunk from lebron james saw the move 10 points clear in the first quarter. The nuggets managed to stay in contention, thanks largely to jamal murray, who produced the most eyecatching move of the game. My goodness, what a basket. Murray is attacking. Look at him go up. Impressive stuff, but they could not contain the lakers charge. Up 33 points. Lebron finished with 26 as they move within one game of their first nba finals for a decade. It means denver for the third time this postseason will have to fight them 31 down. Be theve saturday will seventh time they face elimination from the nba bubble. The french open starts sunday in paris, but they have had to modify plans for an audience to watch. Thats after the government, which had hoped to let in 20,000 a day, but that has now being whittled down to just 1000 a day. Word number two, rafael nadal, will be going for Roland Garros title number 13. I really believe that the Organization Needs to take a look on that for the next couple of years, for the health of the because the ball is heavier, harder on the elbow and shoulders, i think, but this is what we have. Meanwhile, Daniil Medvedev is playing on clay for only the second year in his career. Can you believe it . The russian thinks conditions in september and october could help him do well. It was delayed from its usual may june dates because of the coronavirus. Maybe it can help me. Its a bit colder, so the balls do not fly as much. I think it can be an opportunity for me, actually, an advantage, but, of course, tough to say before you play your first match. Another attack at barcelonas boxers. Suarez has signed a twoyear deal after passing his medical examination friday. The uruguayan was told by the new barcelona boss he had no future at the club. He was hoping to leave before the current season kicked off.
