Helping other women heal. Thats the cape town restaurant that holds the world record for having the widest variety of milkshake flavors will give you the scoop on how many they have. Hello, im christine wonder. Its good to have you company. If you, his Prime Minister made is rejection. Growing International Calls for dialogue and today the fighting in the northern to grind region. This as a 72 hour was surrender ultimatum. His government gave the t. P. O. If leadership expires, Communications Remain almost completely cut off to the to grad region, which is home to about 6000000 people. But we have a look inside of the tunnel, which bears cause off the fighting. Its not what a farming town should look like in the middle of harvest season. In ethiopia, region is largely deserted. And this is why heavy shelling hit the town. As the Ethiopian Army rule in forcing out fighters loyal to the to grab Peoples Liberation front. Most civilians fled during the clashes as their homes were peppered with bullets and shrapnel. Those who remained take stock of events we didnt expect shelling. Suddenly, we started to hear war weapons explosions. And then people panicked that much i couldnt leave my house. I was terrified when i got not everyone walked away unscathed. These women were wounded in the crossfire and that was a thriving town before now. Many residents have since crossed the nearby border into sudan. So thats one, whatever town it was on the verge of development. But now we have been brought back to living hand to mouth because of an unnecessary war, but more so than ever the fighting, similar to what happened in who continues further east of here towards to grace capital. Where the International Community warns more civilians could be at risk. Im now joined by journalist samuel get to show he is in the ethiopian capital ideas. Good to see you, samuel. We have just seen this report who made but there is still a blackout across the to gride region. What do we know about those civilians who are still in what we know is very little. We focus on reports that are coming in from organizations that respected to tell us we needed information by thought information because we cannot travel there. But we know poor fact that the Ethiopian Army is very close to my colleagues in the suburbs, michaeli. And theyre heading, taking over the city, and that is the capital to go, which is at the port and he was a population of well over 500000. 00. And you have to build, if youre going to replace was not counted in 2007, but it might even be much higher than the people are going to continue to be affected by the conflict. And its just an overwhelmingly sided, you know, we lost count, reproduce that are going to more than 40000. There are many people that ive been unaccounted for yesterday add. There was a u. N. Security Council Meeting at this would be change day on the to graduation. This also can as International Community precious at this avodah to try to stop the fighting and proceed dialogue instead. What came out of that security Council Meeting . It was postponed. They wanted to hear from the African Union delegation that are supposed to be going to coming to the suburbs and to strike the Prime Minister of ethiopia. That you will be speaking to them. But there wont be room for any kinds of negotiations. Because according to these children, the cuban government side, exhausted all kinds of mediation, and they feel been side feel they feel by government by still theyve come out and so on the military power. But its very important that will force the leadership to cuban and have the government get into mccully and take over oppy people. Any people the ability supporting this operation . Its a crime. I think its who you are in the open people, sympathy, supporters. There are many people that are giving blood, the members of the army, they feel that army. There are many people that make donating life books. But there are also invisible victims. People who live with families in the 3rd grade region who are not able to speak to the family, to their family members. I had a conversation with a young 125 is positive, was sick, and he was being provided a basic medicine from by december. And all of a sudden hes not able to send the medication to, to go. But there are thousands of these kinds of stories all over the country all over the summer. And there are invisible candidates actually, that is out of the thank you. Thank you. Today the worlds putting a spotlight on the women and girls being subjected to violence on this Years International day for the elimination of violence against women statistics show the call that i had to make has seen abuse against women rise shoppy now in kenya activists say isolation jury in the pandemic is making women even more vulnerable. Now data is interest, matar sent us a report from robi about survivors determined to help and heal of the survivors. Eliminating has never depended on anyone, survived, except herself. Together with a group of women she makes and sells being a part time to feed her family you for. But this is not 5 years ago when she vigil is about to attack happened up until then she had been a silent survivor, group and mystic. Its only that i was right by my stepfathers employee when we went to visit a family relative. I was young then and i remember my mother taking me to the court where i was asked to identify the perpetrator. Later on, i was shocked to see the guy released seeing the perpetrator, little lose left with a permanent one, but she kept it afraid of stigma and being something that is common in her village. I was always wary of boys after the incident. I didnt want to see any man, not even my brothers my grandma really helped me through that journey, supporting me through the process. Now years later, in an unlikely place, she has found solace in a group of women who have all experienced the similar predicament of being sexually violated. In the last 12 months, 243000000, women and girls across the world have been subjected to sexual or physical violence by an intimate partner in neighborhoods like these sexual domestic world. But one woman was willing to change the norm by sharing her story. One country was a victim of Sexual Violence, shes now using her experience to remove the stigma and help survivors access ecological and legal help. Informal settlements across kenya went through a traumatic experience, hours of effort in the challenges that i faced during that i think is what informed their establishment of a foundation. Looking at how the Community Looks at them was been affected, we shifted their billing today as being a limited. Instead he said of calling their a patriot, or one believes the number of women affected through domestic and Sexual Violence could be well above 5 percent. Fueled by the pandemic in very wide to up to something that is hard and their figures will change because also, they sure will maintain pandemic has actually created an environment where cases of increased. Now shes hoping to change the narrative one to help these women sit a peanut, but to business and the place to openly talk about their issues. When we all meet at the same time, one thing we have in common is that we were all right or underwent violent panga comments. He said, we can talk about this support each others businesses. Maybe its a decision that helps you believe in and others like you.

No tele mascarpone oriel cheesecake. There are plenty of milkshake flavors available at gibsons gourmet burgers and chips in cape town. In fact, this restaurant offers 207. 00 varieties thats a world record, and it had to be very fired all at once in a process that took 5 hours and 20 minutes. As each new trick came up, it was numbered, and my job was to make sure that our had the list of ingredients of each of those ingredients were in. So i could verify that those ingredients were, are good tasting in the 2 judges, then tasted the truth. So how do you come up with so many options of shakes . The creators say the inspiration is all around. The one i was when i travelled by minibus taxi, i noticed people eating chocolates my lunch by bar one. When i realized there is a good idea here, i tried making a milkshake mixing all of those together with peanut butter, crunch all bar one to make that. And its delicious. With the customers having sampled the shakes, you can take their word for it to have. But i think that im drinking a chocolate peppermint milkshake.

When moria europes biggest refugee camp went up in flames and september, magnum photographer, and ritz was there to capture it. Has been documenting the lives of Asylum Seekers for years as work and grease for human faces to stories of desperation. At a time when the approaching winter and the continuing Coronavirus Crisis make the situation of unsettled migrants even more precarious than ever. Since a few days before a new covert, 1000 lockdown took effect and return, i was out taking photos. Victoria square has become a makeshift home for many migrants who fled the fire on the island of moria. Theyve been granted Asylum Seekers status. The creases new asylum laws mean theyre left to their own devices. Theyre no longer entitle to any Government Support or shelter, making their situation even worse. Sinai has been documenting their fates for years. And he can relate to them because when he was a child, he and his family fled albania, and lived for a time without documentation in athens. The magnum photographer has made refugees and migrants the focus of his work. When fire broke out at the camp in moria, he headed there mama, i remember the exhaustion and the fear in their eyes. But i also saw hope there. Morea would finally be over and it would finally get better. Like the day after the fire, one of the girls, i photographed 12 year old money from afghanistan, organized a protest march. First, there were just 20 other children, but then the march will be bigger. People just want it off the island. Its a fluke of the, of the photographer is a kind of anchor for some here. Also from afghanistan by this masses will be far fewer than a bomb. And when i told her that id be leaving again in a few days, she suddenly turned to me and said, before you leave, say goodbye to us. And i almost cried before you leave, say goodbye to us. Its also the title of his planned photo book. Dedicated to the people whose living situation hes been documenting since 2015 companies, some of them to germany and sweden and his photos also depict their arrival. Unsettling. It was encouraging to see that a lot of the people who had made it to that point are now standing on their own 2 feet. And that they were able to start a new life to see how much to give in athens and return. I will keep documenting the migrants from the morea camp in their efforts to survive. He wants them to have a chance to cowboy stories of the american old west have long held a special place here in europe. Think spaghetti western, its all those cowboy movies, shot in italy. Then theres lucky only the comic character known as the man who, shoots faster than his shadow. He 1st appeared in belgium in the 1940, s. , and is still popular today. Over the years lucky work spent translated into dozens of languages and appeared in movies and video games with more than 300000000 issues sold. Lucky, luke is the most successful western themed comic series ever. The books are currently illustrated by down on top of his home in southern france. Isnt the wild west, but it does give him some inspiration for his comics. Using the pen name dominant all started drawing the comic nearly 2 decades ago. The series was created in 1946 by the belgian illustrator, maurice, and he chose ash, did it take over drawing the tales of the lonesome Crime Fighting cowboy a daunting challenge him on this in the beginning, i asked him if i could spend 6 months practicing appeared 1st i wasnt happy with my drawings. Only after id done 3 comic books did i feel confident enough to say, im the lucky luke cartoonist. Who does, you know, took a cue. Asterix creator really got sunni, wrote the story starting in 1955 since his death in 1977 other it was traitors have taken over. The last 3 books were written by julian. He says its important to maintain lucky lukes original charm, but he wants to tell new stories. It has to make sense and mean something. Today the lucky luke we publish has to be faithful to the tradition. But it also has to be comics they couldnt have made back there for one thing the new comics are more diverse. The latest edition costars a black, cowboy for the 1st time. Hes based on historical figures and covered in his 4 years of research for the golf advancement. But i found out that 25 percent of cowboys were black, and that the vast majority of the others were hispanic. So the john wayne style, blond, cowboy, with blue eyes that hollywood sold us for decades is pure fiction. I dont, thats what this comic is about. It confronts racism in america, the hard tragic issues of slavery. There still humo
