Company with us here on the news hour planes are again flying in and out of Hong Kong International airport after protesters flooded terminal buildings for a 2nd consecutive day causing mass cancellations things turned violent when riot police moved in with batons and pepper spray live to hong kong shortly but 1st this report from the honeyed. It was late in the evening when chaos broke out at hong kongs International Airport hours before protesters had detained and roughed up a man they suspected of being an under. Her agent from Mainland China paramedics tried to save him in vain so police were sent to help them thats when the scuffles broke out even though fish oils have clearly said their mission wasnt to disperse the sit in now in its 5th day hundreds of flies have been cancelled at one of the worlds busiest airports Hong Kong Government is continuing to stand behind a tougher Police Tactics after Security Forces said they were facing increasing violence anger at what protestors say is Police Brutality in dealing with them has fired up these airport demonstrations earlier in the day hong kongs embattled leader kerry lamb gave a press briefing to warn of the economic damage of closing the airport but gave no hint of backing away from hers and beijings resolute stance that you have executives responsibility is to ensure that hong kong remains a safe and orderly and law abiding city that is my utmost responsibility because without the rule of law without law and order in hong kong. It is extremely difficult to ensure the 7000000 people in hong kong could continue to live in a peaceful manner choose they had begun with their return to business as airlines started clearing the backlog of canceled flights protester numbers werent as big as the day before but enough to block access to do security and immigration areas and to use enough trolleys to close down the check in desks by and large the protesters have left the airport and all you have here are passengers trying to figure out when they can cast and next flight home awaits to see whether wednesday will bring more disruption to air travelers but more importantly when and if both or it is patience well out of that that had me at home calls International Airport where you and Human Rights Office once hong kongs leaders to look into where the police have broken International Law and the way theyve dealt with protesters. Yes are very concerned because the violence appears to be increasing. And. Certainly segments of the population appear to be getting angry and this is one of the reasons why we call for prompt impartial independent investigations the office urges the hong kong authorities to act with restraint to ensure that the rights of those who are expressing their views peacefully are respected and protected. But Chinas Mission to the un has rejected that statement saying the spokesperson for the u. N. High commissioner for human rights made a wrongful statement on hong kong that contradicts the facts interferes in whats happening in hong kong which is chinas Domestic Affairs and sends the wrong signal to the violent criminal offenders the statement goes on to say that this is not tolerable for any responsible government and will only be met with a firm hand in accordance with the law tweeting in washington d. C. The us president also seemed to suggest that china is preparing for a tougher crackdown our intelligence has informed us that the Chinese Government is moving troops to the border with hong kong everyone should be calm and safe. Live to another all reporters in Hong Kong Bryant who joins me now rob i suppose really everybody bracing themselves about what may or may not happen in hong kong with all eyes perhaps. Pulled. Absolutely this seems now to be the focal point if you like of this movement the demonstrators and the all thora ts know that after occupying it and bringing it to a standstill this is where they can really hits hong kong where it hurts most remarkably this wednesday morning given the extent of the violence overnight flights are coming in and out again. The airlines trying to clear not only the backlog of flights cancelled flights built up from yesterday tuesday but of course also from the previous day monday hundreds of Flights Canceled need to be rescheduled the protest the numbers have dropped overnight thats only a relatively few that made the arrival whole busy as they continue this campaign of telling visitors about whats going on here and interestingly the Airport Authority has been relatively tolerant of having these protesters to be honest there is little a can do when you get thousands of people coming into your terminal quite peacefully and deciding to sit down on the floor theres not much you can do about that but we have. It has been reported here now that the Airport Authority has achieved an injunction from the courts that could force the protesters to leave but it remains to be seen just how they are going to wait and force that in what is a public space well have to wait and see how that goes as far as the troops across the border are concerned people here are really analyzing this all really waiting to see what is chinas red line we keep on having an increase in violence an increase in different ways of this move. Being carried out now we have an occupation of the airport people are asking is that chinas red line true probably not the stance from the government here and also from china is that the government here on the police can still deal with this situation the chinese know that it is that credibly inflammatory to bring the Peoples Liberation on to the streets of hong kong so i think things still have to get a lot worse than this before they would take that step and of course you know rob the other big issue is that. Hong kongs reputation at stake here in much of the holiday and financial destination but there are real concerns about how much this is costing the island state itself and in turn its reputation there is being badly damaged. Thats right yes though there is a lot of concern about that hong kong as we know is a business oriented place that relies on business it relies on visitors coming in and out it is a Logistics Center needs things like the airport which is one of the worlds busiest there will be a financial cost to this but also it is all of the knock on effect of if you cant get the travel is in what is that doing to tourism what is it doing to the Financial Sector and so on we know that from government figures that tourism is down by around a 3rd and this was last week as these images go out to the world. You can expect to have even bigger impact on visitors coming here and the government here has said that things could be as worse as sars outbreak of the sars virus that happened in 2003 here that claimed several 100 lives but really did put off millions of people from 3 visiting hong kong for 2 well over a year so there is a possible impact from this but also as far as the austerity is a concern that may well play in their favor this Movement Still has a lot of support from the general population as as we get more disruption it seems that could see some of that popularity fade away as it did 5 years ago so the government would be hoping in some ways that all of this works negatively against this protest movements as well indeed as we leave you there for the moment to monitor events in the city we can also see pictures obviously of the airport working normal of course well monitor events through the day with you and our correspondents in hong kong thank you. About 500. 00 fijis migrants are stranded in the Mediterranean Sea after being rescued by 2 h. s the ocean viking picked up more than 300. 00 of them on sunday and monday on the spanish vessel the open arms has been at sea for 12 days waiting for pulled entry approval European Countries are looking at who should take responsibility for them well jake bugg is a project coordinator with Doctors Without Borders on his own bolt the ocean viking hes calling on the italian all multis governments to let them dull we had 4 rescues and for 4 days in a row we had the 1st rescue we had at 85 people the 2nd rescue was again 85 people the 3rd 81 and the last rescue was 105 people on our last rescue just moments after we got life jackets on all the people on board the rubber boat part of the river boat collapse and people actually went in the water if we wouldnt have been there just minutes before they would definitely have been more that in the mediterranean we have contacted both of them all future dohertys and the italian authorities are questioning a point of safety so we are relying on them to give us a proper place for disembarkation some of these people have been at sea for for 4 to 3 to 4 days in these rubber boats which arent even worthy for being at sea theres severely dehydrated they are showing signs of physical abuse psychological abuse from their time in libya wounds im just saying on their hands and feet speak for themselves theyve talked all the stories about their times in arbitrary detention being forced into slavery rape being tortured and seeing people next to them killed for no reason at all. Well the government talking mexican shot and killed 22 people in the u. S. State of texas last week denounced White Supremacy and calls for unity but critics say the president s own anti immigrant rhetoric is fueling the hatred behind such attacks castrate went to 3 thats hot as in mexico to see if u. S. Gun violence is giving Asylum Seekers 2nd thoughts for new york us steel last weeks massacre in el paso made her no less determined to reach the United States a mother of 2 from cuba is number 15060 on the waiting list of migrants wanting to enter from sudan what is she says the dangers shes a scaping are far greater than the Mass Shootings north of the border than 100. 00. Believe that weve always been at risk always in danger but when we try to cross they stop us 125. 00 migrants from Central America south america and africa are currently staying at this church run shelter in sudan as many have been here waiting for months the pastor says since the shooting u. S. Border agents have nearly halted the slow trickle of Asylum Seekers at the international bridge. Everyone is nervous about the situation to see how the shooting has made things slow or. And each day of waiting brings its own threats outside the protective walls of the shelter juarez is becoming more dangerous violence between newly fragmented drug cartels is behind a wave of killings across the country that began late last year just as more migrants were arriving here in juarez 139. 00 people were killed last month but the trouble ministration claims mexico is safe for migrants its use that as justification to force people to wait longer in mexico and to return some to guatemala so what are you regus carried her new born from honduras she says shes fearful to be turned back. In as though who needs the differences compared to the u. S. Our country is much more dangerous a person will always seek with safer for their family. Meanwhile the shelter in sudan what is is expanding to fit 100 more people under its roof in preparation for more migrants to be turned back and to stay longer well lets go live to heidi castro who joins me now from El Paso Texas really despite the hardship and danger even getting to the border as you suggested in the recent shooting in el paso it really isnt deterring those that want to get to the u. S. It seems the lesser of 2 evils. Thats right thats the message that weve been hearing consistently with the migrants that we found both here in el paso and across the border and what theyre saying is that despite the dangers of getting through Central America and through mexico to arrive here at the u. S. Border and despite you know the frightening News Coverage of the last week with this this White Nationalist who targeted hispanics and apparently immigrants in that mass killing that took 22 lives they said that despite that still the dangers and the risks of staying at home are greater were hearing stories about the Gang Violence that have already killed family members or because of government issues schooling being closed for months at a time in these Central American countries and the lack of any sort of opportunity or a future for their children and they say thats why that desire to leave home is completely undeterred but i will say what is keeping more people from of reaching this point is mexicos decision to deploy a National Guard troops to its southern border with what amala we heard that these National Guard troops are in fact keeping these migrants from crossing into mexico into advance further north here and that may be the reason why in july there was a pretty significant decrease in the number of people who reached this border and attempted to cross down to just about 72000. 00 people in a month which was much lower than peak crossings of more than 100000. 00 so but of course its not just military deployments is it its the agreements that have also been put in place between the u. S. And Central American countries to accept Asylum Seekers there and not let them progress to the u. S. Border is that in any way a deterrent the news is getting out to those that are trying to get to the u. S. To basically turn back and go home. Sure the message may be having a deterring factor but those programs that you mention which is the one announced by President Trump in july saying that he had signed a treaty with the president of guatemala which makes quite a model of whats called a safe 3rd country meaning that migrants who arrive here at this border would not qualify for asylum in the u. S. If they had already passed through was a mala and would be turned back to watch them all if so there was a lot of talk about that but what it boils down to is that policy has still yet to take effect its still being discussed in the u. S. Government and its facing a lot of Court Challenges with critics here saying that such a policy is illegal because what amala itself is not a safe country so claiming to be a socalled safe 3rd country is invalid and adding to the uncertainty of whether or not this policy will ever take effect is that the incoming president who is newly elected in guatemala has said that he believes a 3rd country treaty with trump signed by his predecessor is invalid so theres still a lot of questions about whether or not the policy will ever take effect so there is for the moment tajik astray thanks for the update.
