sub for some buses. but as you can see, this place where i'm standing now, it's normally bustling with people. millions of people go by here to take the subway, but the subway is closed. and over there, on that side is the largest train station and went to side as it is also close. so this whole area, normally crowded with people, is now empty. and this is what the trade unions want to show the government that not only they're able to put lots of protesters on the streets, but they can also empty the streets, empty the factories, and put a halt on the economy. all the flights has been cancelled until midnight. so the country is really has come to a halt and even people that didn't want to participate in the strike, many were forced to stay at home because they have no means to get to work. so this is what the trade unions wanted to show and make a put

a lot of pressure on the government because it is now trying to pass legislation labor reforms and also to cut public spendings and to change the economy drastically. austerity measures that have had their impact on people's daily lives . because although inflation has come down from 25 percent a month to 9 percent of people still have no money to put food on the table by the end of the month. a play and caring 85 people have skidded off a runway and set a goal. the thing is 737 co fire off to coming through stuff with the doctor's international airport. it just arrived from neighboring. molly, i'm sorry. say these 10 people were injured. a 25 us state is ruled by republican governors of laws and legal challenge to block a rule, limits of emissions from co gas and oil power plant. they want an appeals court in the nation's capital to declare the regulations of the environmental protection agency and awful rules required sweeping reductions in compet emissions from

existing coal, 5 plants and new natural gas facilities. the top of the bone deaf and the u. k. can now, here, after receiving groundbreaking jeans, sir, can i have a case of good money here? yes, april sandy, soft with a condition called audio near a prophy, which disrupts nerve signals from the air to the brain. trial therapy use the modified fires to effectively replace the full t t. and that's a for me, the the next generation in the united states. they're not happy with what is happening in gaza. they're not happy with the u. s. foreign policy and that's why they're trying to make their voices heard. the administrators of each university really

have a choice to either escalate and calling police be confrontational, or to actually listen to what their concerns are. city stream of people being arrested, placed in the zip tie and cups and taken away many of the purchases we talked to have said they will continue protesting until their demands are met. this is solomon islands america. the serious scooby dive is a stable these guys have traveled from all over the world to be here to see some impressive and deep will go to rick. rick dog is attractive order. it's the history of just the challenge. many people on this is found one of the greatest see graveyards as world war 2. what lies beneath is an environmental

time. the. the reality is there is a tremendous amount of pollution that some of these wrecks are. they are literally the sense of taking time off. the question is, how much was inpatient briggs and kennedy seem to be done about it before. white gloves. move in, id used to go a ferocious bass or took place here between japan and the allies, and the legacy of it extends from the sea to the shore with deadly weapons and ammunition still littering bays on 101 east makes the solomon islanders who tonda skate a bruce award the in the decades ago, the

were off the coast of guadalcanal on the solomon mazda dive place is going to put a plug in knoxville for you. i'm here with neil yates. i 1st met him when i used to leave here and he was running a dive company today to see, to share his deep knowledge of solomon's war time passed. with these dive, his walk along solomon island is and to our model sounds, you're unaware why this is cold on bottom sound. it is because there are on around the $200.00 ships out there. there's also $690.00 aircraft out there. so this was one of the most densely populated rec sites in the pacific data. guadalcanal was the longest campaign of any of the campaigns which report throughout the orleans and the pacific. on august 7th, 1942 american marines in their 1st major ration landed on. but on

this landing on guadalcanal, an island in the solomons was the 1st time during world war 2. the us had invited japanese held territory, triggering a series of massive specials on land. and it seemed like a month, an extraordinary amount of ammunition was exchange by both sides. the end of the doctors, my doctor's office on our own cruise, i cut the losses were numerous around 30000 main, were killed, moving a 1000 planes destroyed in thousands of ships. sunk gall canal is extremely significant. that stops the japanese advance across the

pacific. and the american forces and push them eventually back to back to my mind japan, the wrecks, these divers have come to see have been corroding. so i and these mold and just rusting mitchell down there. there's also an unknown amount of toxic black oil trapped inside the corroding rigs. the salt whole lot of oil on things around here . total plumley oil. i can only has that a guess, but yeah, we're talking tens of thousands of tons the today, new is going to be my dies buddy. we're going to see if we can find any oil and see what impact the corrosion is having on these chips. and if you take the,

we're heading down the more in line to see us. this kind of was an oil tank. it sunk during a japanese a ride. in 1943, the sitting 60 maces below the surface with its guns still pointing sky wood. it's a haunting sun. a will grave. quite a large ship. total fuel capacity was a bit of a 9000 tons. this is the opening to one of the ships many fuel bunkers. just a few years ago they was oil in this hold. and daughters would leave covered in a sticky black sludge. now it's empty, but it's just one risk of why there are others divers, kind of getting to the or

the use the country and all the old ships, the god concerned the section. so don't know what is the big mix dive side is just of the caused about 10 kilometers from the capital. honey are the, it's a japanese transport called the here a color memory. it's a popular dive side would be useful. corals and fish, the inside part of the sheet, neil finds a pocket of boil trapped in a space on the roof. there are more oil patches like these in here enough to

pollute the beach if they were to leak out. as we had to the surface, think about how big these problem could be and how much we comp see a lot of the racks are really, really big and really hard to access. no noise, exactly how much cable in a while was on board when they went down. know how much kids still live. having died like this, solomon island. there's one rick neely's particularly worried about the american cruiser. you assess atlanta, big loss, which is something that's uh, there's a major up here fuel. so the

atlanta lies in a $113.00 mazes of warsaw. it's too deep for us to dive today. these pictures were filmed by an expedition crew in 2011 of oil bubbles coming to the surface. how likely do you think it is so have possible, do you think it is that a ship like that could rupture at some point in the future? likely, yeah, it's highly likely. so it's fairly heavily built but it's um, eventually oh, it will rust and collapse. you can see what to say. the structure here he is collect doctor mat costa and he's a marine archaeologist choose investigating the corrosion of world war 2 ricks in the pacific. so we work for the g or so it's a company called stages and they can use a lot stitching map for flex spice to you can save solomon islands. and as you can see here,

the quart oil slicks from thousands of individuals move or taisha brooks. what's the swamp that's right off the coast, if any are. so that's the easiest atlanta, the, the amount of oil. what's coming of that is, as a low mountain, these changes been documenting pollution elsewhere in the pacific. in march for nature, with the rigs and notice data. it's a warning about what could be happening in solomon's versus their daughters. and this kind of one of the rigs and it's real quick. and as you can see here, there's a mess of pockets of, of oil side, that's what were leaked out of the bunk of tanks themselves and come out of stock. and those roof cavities and pots of the how well it would take is a small hole in the how full the soil to spill out, potentially 1000 the latest of oil released at one guard, which is not, that's kind of one of the worst case scenarios for for this kind of problem across the pacific, japan and the us tennessee, on

a ship of the rigs as will grapes. but in solomons, they not doing anything to stop them from causing environmental problems with the rex and solomon islands. do you think it's a case of when not, if there is a significant spill, the rates are crowding we know that it's, it's science and they will release the oil that they have the remains. but the question is, how much was in these they short breaks and can anything be done about it before like lips? is it clear? who has the legal and the moral responsibility to do something about these wrecks? it's not clear. it's a really complicated situation by the end of the day, the solomon islanders the more canadians, you know, they shouldn't be the ones picking up the, the, the cost and things like this and page of the game. the funny are, is a busy, rapidly expanding seasons that was built on the battlefield. p a. people

still rely heavily on the land and the see the, the us will memorial is a spectacular spot to take it only and get a sense of how different the land looks during the war. on these sites, they will not see no houses whatsoever. only for us, you'll come here with saint michael. been a world war 2 to a god. hold on this uh, unexploded bones, greenage and all of this is this thing on the surface. so many time when the people make thousands, they never realize that the unexploded booms just a few feet down on the ground. so when they was the grass is old, the trees, the southern need. the wolves exploded the sport. but that

one is forever standing. there's nothing upstairs this is the solomon islands police farm squad. i was wondering, of says they're among some of the most experienced world war 2 disposal experts in the regional since 2011. they've recovered nearly 50000, unexploded ordnance code u x. so is, so the most common thing, somebody to clean or most ever, weakly have call out the boys, the window didn't respond and get the green a. and then we have the project, those especially the 75000000 with the color, but a clifford to no key is the department's acting director. he knows about the dangers of us. so is, but many locals don't. some of the ordinances. they have some very sensitive

elements within the bottom, which is really sensitive the moment. so the moment the project, it just just exploded for the past 10 years about that in that, in people that have been queued. so for a small population, it is a high number is quite consuming. the bill, this is job is to respond to reports of buicks always found, find the crew they headed to a house on the outskirts of the city. these hilltops nearby will part of the evacuation route taken by japanese soldiers as american troops post them off the island. so just

arrived at the spot where a bomb has been reported and the police have just gone down to check it out. we have to stay here because they don't know if it's safe. send me the rooms after i talked to local allan velocity because the us so was found by a child and it's not the 1st time you have the funding. what small confidence a little bit. hello feelings. when you 1st apply, hey, way it's of a finding the telephone level to you see him home for. but how do come little uh, what would meaningful selling boom boom campaigns are too much done with give me what i see. and it's a small projectile, but still contains high explosive materials while we're here and now the cold comes in

there's so much development going on in honey. all right, u x o is often found on construction site costs behind a shipping container at the front of this building size. this is 60 millimeters or more around, based on this one today or before. yeah. and excavations has on us to move us just sticking around. if any other ones just lay out um do you think that could be more on this side? could be more, but some might be other people they should be cleared into before close to the next room. but it's not the job of police to check below the surface. it's fascinating to me that i've just pulled some motors out of the ground, but these guys just keep on working. if you're looking at any other place in the

world, if that happened, a building start like this would be immediately shut down. but here in solomon islands, paperless, so reduced to having these bones and these folding and flying around. so they just have to get on with the police off and get calls from the halo trust benji or has been given a $1000000.00 by the us government to serve a the land for will to us. so is there any reporting what they see on the surface today, they found 38 projectiles in a pile near a tree. and another $79.00 in the bushes is old, empty sales, but we are ready to take them and throw it at the house, cut off by a tail split, locals moved one you excited to a tree branch to keep it away from little hands. the

sand retained goss uh, leaves just up the hill side. it was right there on the banana, i dislike. i don't even picked it up. i just moved it and it exploded it now. and what did you think when you saw it? a guy was like, he's like a little kettle, like a team or seen or that like a m a. see it here. he was 11 when he found a world war 2 round containing want 1st for us, which causes excruciating bins. and he's been left with severe injuries, but he's one of the lucky ones, rosary astray, you have helped him get surgery and rehab. can you pick things out full? yeah, i can pick the full quite. this is smoking, not a big thing. the most of the offensive

spent on clearing us always from the surface, leaving the most challenging job of looking for them on the ground to a handful of private clearance. ok, right to me by me. safety also for you me to day. so if anything, i'm up in this, put them on, blew up on to say something so, so, so the model mac has spent 16 years in the police bomb squad before starting his own company. what's the deepest you've ever found? the u. x us a, go about the 3 meet us and we found both hands is the $136155.00 project that's using military grade miss will detect his he charges just $0.65 per square meter to check the land for us. so is that most solomon islanders come to food, even. that's very, very expensive for them. how do you feel that in the times that you've you've,

you've heard that someone's been injured all being killed by us? so what course are you mind when that happens? the, the very most of the story. i think the government is not, you know, so help full enough to help these people. they are not to fight as they are peaceful in a peaceful civil it. and if solomon i, when the war ended, us japanese black process went home, went home and peace. we still do not have please come through and we we sort of say for me it's in

the, i'm struck by how the actions of japan and the allies, 80 years ago continues to effect. so in many solomon islanders the in cook. i'm fishing village, the day stopped early. one this why would or was in my evelyn piano a has been up since for i am preparing to make coconuts guns for school lunches, so this is migrated coconut. this replaces the milk for the life with the how the milk ben doesn't have that island taste. but now even cooking is a struggle. and these 2 fingers being removed. and

this one being really less, are rated right to the wrist. it doesn't give me any strength at all. 3 years ago, milan and 2 of her friends were cooking on a traditional 5 page. when a world war 2 projectile buried underground exploded. the show was americans with their to hands legs and abdomen to shreds and to her 2 friends, a troll when the cab beach and i was tearing it. and just when i was saving it into the bowl that they were holding on to then the thing exploded, i didn't hear the explosion. i had the hissing sound. and then i realize this something is happening to us. i i so my next time

i'm on hanging low, the skin and the flush with a low hanging right to my ribs. and then i, i realize i'm in big trouble. she lives with pain, had to quit her job at the national university and doesn't get support from the government or any of the countries involved in the war. in other places, there is support. and in the slow months there is no support is really frustrating to me, emotionally. i'm really, i don't, i don't know if it affects me to think that the u. s. and japan and the allies should html. yes. sometimes i want to blame the of the allies for doing i mean the will and had it not for

them. i wouldn't be having this issues, but it's because of what they came with and what they leave behind. that's cost somewhere for us to have. please enjoy reason last life similarly, so they should be coming over in person with the resources to do the clean up the back at the police fun score. headquarters, the offices, the heading down the range to dispose of 2 rounds of want phosphorus by blowing them up the we have to stay at a safe distance in the radio room to

down. but there are many, many more to go. what is out there is unsafe in just my estimate. maybe more than a $100000.00 items still out there. the cleaning up the solomon islands will probably take decades and it's highly likely in that time, more people will be injured and even killed the mainland doesn't want to let that happen. she's now training in us. so risk awareness in the hope she can one of those of the dangers and spit them the hara and hardship on. i've been given

a 2nd chance to me. so the 2nd chance that i have now is to tell others about my experience and be more careful with life. because once we lose it, that's it finished some of us, we never have a 2nd chance. i have one. so i will use the 2nd chance that i've been given to house office. the latest news as it breaks online banking apps rely on making sense of those states are experiencing an intimate blackouts with detailed coverage. the majority of the front runners in these elections have either been questioned for or have already been convicted in corruption scheme from around the world. this is the asian highlight for think, talk correct me or what is an area that the s i c have being pushed as of
