Welcome

0:11

to the SKU's line on Ramin Mallegarden,

0:14

Tokyo. South Korea's military

0:16

says Sunday's missile launched by North

0:18

Korea could have been provoked by joint

0:21

drills it plans to hold

0:23

with the US. South

0:26

Korea's military officials announced that

0:28

North Korea launched a short

0:30

range ballistic missile toward the sea of Japan

0:32

at around six fifty three AM

0:35

Sunday. The official say the missile

0:37

was fired from near the Tecton

0:39

area of north Pyongyang

0:42

province in the country's northwest.

0:44

Now they say the missile traveled about six

0:46

hundred kilometers, reaching an altitude, about

0:48

sixty kilometers at a maximum. Six

0:51

hundred it traveled six hundred kilometers

0:53

reaching an altitude of about sixty kilometers

0:56

at maximum speed of about Mach five.

0:59

Japan's defense minister says it can be

1:01

presumed that the missile landed out

1:03

side Japan's exclusive economic zone.

1:05

He also says that missile could have been a model

1:08

capable of following irregular

1:11

flight paths He says there have been

1:13

no reports so far of damage

1:15

to Japanese ships or aircraft.

1:17

We strongly

1:20

condemn the launch. it violates

1:22

security council resolutions. Yes.

1:25

North

1:25

Korea fired a total of eight ballistic

1:28

missiles in June alone Sunday's

1:30

launch was the nineteenth this year.

1:33

South Korea's presidential office has expressed

1:35

concerns as it was the first

1:37

since Pyongyang adopted a nuclear

1:40

policy early this month. The law

1:42

outlines conditions under which the country

1:44

would launch a nuclear strike in

1:46

shining the right to use

1:48

nuclear weapons. And North

1:50

Korea has been on edge

1:52

over US a South Korea

1:54

joint drills scheduled to take place soon

1:57

around the sea of Japan. The US

1:59

nuclear powered aircraft carrier Ronald

2:01

Reagan docked in the southeastern

2:03

city of Busan on Friday ahead

2:05

of the drills. South Korean and

2:07

US military forces have been on high

2:09

alert as there are signs

2:12

that Pyongyang may be preparing to launch

2:14

a ballistic missile from a submarine.

2:17

Now, Iran has been rocked by clashes

2:19

between people protesting the death of a

2:21

young woman, arrested for dressing improperly

2:24

and security forces. State run

2:26

television reports that forty one people

2:29

have died. Massoud

2:31

Amini was arrested allegedly

2:34

not properly wearing the that

2:36

is required by law in public. She

2:38

later died on September sixteenth at

2:40

the age of twenty two. Authorities

2:43

say she suffered sudden heart

2:45

failure, but protesters believe that

2:47

she was beaten by police. Some demonstrators

2:50

have set fire to police vehicles and damaged

2:52

buildings. A number of protesters have

2:54

been arrested. The government

2:56

is also restricting Internet and

2:58

social media access Experts

3:01

say the protests are fueled by strong public

3:03

discontent with economic policies

3:06

and enforcement of headscarf

3:08

rules. And

3:11

there's a new wave of protests across Russia

3:13

against the mobilization of civilians

3:16

the military. President

3:18

Vladimir Putin announced what he calls

3:21

a partial mobilization last

3:23

Wednesday as Ukraine forces

3:25

continued counterattacks in the east

3:27

and south of Ukraine. Independent

3:30

Russian media outlets report that the plan

3:32

could mobilize one million people

3:34

including the elderly and students.

3:37

Protests were staged in Moscow, Saint

3:39

Petersburg, and other areas on

3:41

Saturday. A Russian Human Rights

3:44

Group says more than seven hundred and forty

3:46

individuals had been arrested in

3:48

at least thirty two cities. Group

3:50

says some of those detained were handed

3:52

their call off papers. Kremlin's

3:55

spokesperson, Deputy Pascal, says

3:57

drafting detained persons is

3:59

totally legal. Putin

4:01

has strengthened punishment for deserters

4:04

and draft dodgers, including prison

4:06

terms, of up to fifteen years.

4:10

Russia still has strong ties with India,

4:12

whose foreign minister told the UN general

4:14

assembly, it remains neutral on

4:17

the Ukraine conflict. India

4:20

is on the side of peace and will

4:22

remain firmly there. We

4:24

are on the side that respects the

4:26

UN charter and is founding principles.

4:29

We are on the side

4:31

that calls for dialogue and diplomacy

4:34

as the only way out. India

4:37

has a long and strong relationship

4:39

with Russia, especially in military and

4:41

economic fields. At the UN,

4:43

India has repeatedly abstained from

4:46

voting on resolutions demanding the immediate

4:48

withdrawal of Russian forces

4:50

from Ukraine. But earlier this

4:52

month, Indian prime minister,

4:54

Narandramodi, told Russian

4:57

President Vladimir Putin, that

4:59

this is not the era of

5:01

war. At the UN, the

5:03

foreign minister said there are increasing calls

5:05

to reform the security council saying it is

5:07

behind the times and deeply unfair.

5:10

He said that India is ready to take

5:12

on greater responsibilities, indicating

5:14

the country may want a permanent

5:16

member seat on the council.

5:26

about carrying migrants from Lebanon capsized

5:29

off Syria. Local media

5:31

says eighty nine people have been

5:33

confirmed dead and about twenty people

5:35

have been rescued. Syria's

5:38

state run news agency says the

5:40

incident occurred off the coast of Syria on

5:42

Thursday According to those

5:44

rescued, the boat with about a hundred and

5:46

fifty people on board left Lebanon

5:49

last Tuesday and was heading

5:51

for Cyprus. Search

5:53

operations for missing passengers are continuing.

5:55

Lebanese authorities have launched a crackdown

5:57

on brokers smuggling migrants

5:59

in the country. People

6:01

are fleeing Lebanon by sea

6:04

to seek a better life in Europe as the

6:06

country's economic crisis continues

6:08

to worsen. The International Organization

6:10

for migration says more than

6:12

one thousand six hundred people

6:14

have lost their lives in such boat

6:16

accidents since early this

6:18

year. A new

6:20

footage of the Beatles has been

6:22

made public in Japan. It captures

6:25

scenes of intense police security

6:27

when the fab four visited Japan

6:29

to perform in more than fifty

6:31

five years ago. Now some of the

6:33

film has never been seen by the

6:35

public before. The

6:38

video was released in July

6:40

to a nonprofit organization which

6:42

made an information disclosure request

6:44

to the metropolitan police department in

6:46

two thousand fifteen. The faces

6:48

of people other than the Beatles are blurred

6:51

to protect their privacy. The

6:53

black and white silent footage is about

6:55

thirty five minutes long. It shows

6:57

large scale security measures implemented

6:59

during the Fab four's visit from

7:01

June twenty ninth to July third

7:03

nineteen sixty six. The

7:05

footage shows checkpoints SET

7:07

UP AROUND NEPON BOUDJIKAN, THE

7:10

CONSERVED VENEW AND A HOTEL

7:12

WHERE THE GROUP STADE. IT ALSO SHOWS

7:14

POLICE BOATS PATROLING THE MOTES

7:16

around the arena. Video

7:18

also includes scenes from the final performance

7:20

on the night of July second, which

7:22

have never been made public until

7:24

now. It shows the band members

7:26

waving as they left the stage.

7:29

It is surprising

7:32

that such footage came out as I thought there

7:34

were no more materials available. It

7:36

is also a pleasure. I

7:38

think it is worth studying. Regarding

7:41

the faces of fans and police officers

7:43

being obscured, the head of the nonprofit

7:45

or organization, Shinkai

7:47

Satoshi says the fact that

7:50

police at the blur footage taken in

7:52

nineteen sixty six tells us

7:54

how outdated and globally substandard

7:56

Japan's information disclosure system is.

7:59

The video has been released on

8:01

YouTube.

8:21

And

8:23

here's a three day forecast for selected cities

8:25

around the globe.

9:37

And that's Rob for this edition of NHK

9:39

news line. I'm Ramin Malagaard. Thank you very

9:41

much for joining us.
