not calmed down since a military coup
took place last month

killed certain factories were set on
fire
and china got involved in calling for
the government to stop the violence
when the military took over last month
it said there was widespread
fraud in an election that was held in
november that election gave an
overwhelming victory to myanmar's
civilian leader
and an opposition party that the
military supported
didn't do as well as it had hoped on
february 1st
the military removed and replaced the
civilian government
since then protesters have been
demanding that civilian rule is brought
backand several other countries have accused
the military of violently cracking down
on protesters

policeman was killed in a confrontation
with protesters
it was one of the deadliest days since
the coup took place
china shares a border with myanmar and
the chinese embassy says several
factories that china pays
for in myanmar were set on fire during
sunday's protests
and that chinese citizens were injured
it's not known exactly who did that but
burmese protesters who opposed the
military coup
have accused china of supporting it that
nation has previously spoken out against
violence directed at myanmar's
protesters
on sunday china called for the burmese
military to stop
all acts of violence and punish those
responsible for targeting chinese
factories and civilians neither the
military nor the protesters in myanmar

ten-second trivia which of these rivers
has the shortest
length yukon rio grande volga
or niger
at about 1900 miles the rio grande is
the shortest river on this list
the rio grande forms a natural border
between mexico and the united states
and it's at that border where there's
been a dramatic increase this year in
the number of people trying to cross
into the u.s american critics call the
situationa crisis the biden administration has
called it a challenge
one of the reasons behind the increase
is a change in u.s
law under the trump administration last
year u.s
border officials were allowed to turn
away people who illegally entered
america
out of concerns they could bring new
cases of coronavirus
under the biden administration this year
children who are caught illegally
crossing the border are allowed to stay
in the u.swhile their cases for immigration are
reviewed there are many reasons why
people try to enter america
violence and poverty in their home
countries problems made worse in central
america by the coronavirus pandemic
new opportunities in the united states
and while the biden administration says
it's trying to develop more helpful
programs for immigrants
critics say the government's taking too
long to get control of the situation at
the border
meanwhile u.s border control agents are
struggling to process those who are
crossing legally
and to stop those who are crossing
illegally at the beginning of the week
there were about
4 200 unaccompanied children in the
custody of u.s border control

as the sun sets on the rio grande our
boat winds its way through the deep
bends of the river
that separates texas from mexico near
the town of hidalgo
that's when we stumble across a group of
migrants loading
into a raft so amigos
our group eases the tension a few men
appear to lead the wrathful of parents
and young children
to the u.s side
the rio grande valley has been ground
zero of the latest surge of migration
and here you see the operation unfolding
right in front of us
after the first raft crosses the river
the magnitude of this moment reveals
itself
dozens of migrants emerge and walk down
to the river's edge
you can see that this is a serious
operation there are dozens
of migrants there are still some above
the hills there
and it is quickly moving a handful of
guysmove people back and forth on these
rafts they have life vests for the
migrants
it's a highly organized system we'll
watch the raft make about
six trips back and forth scenes like
this are escalating in the rio grande
valleythere's the growing perception among
migrants in central america
that the bide administration is more
welcoming even though many are still
being turned away
these are really really high numbers i
have never seen it this busy in 19 years
chris cabrera is with the national
border patrol council the union that
represents border patrol agents
he warns the agency's front line field
stations
like this massive tent facility are
being pushed to the limit
with migrants in custody we're crowded
we're overcrowded we don't have anywhere
to put people but we have them in our
custody
and the system has bogged down and
there's no place for us to send them
because
the next level is not open yet this is a
rare view of the field station set up
about a month ago by the border patrol
the tents are used to handle the initial
field processing
for the tens of thousands of migrants
apprehended in the rio grande valley
there are bathrooms first aid care and
migrants are removed from the area
by a steady stream of buses

i'm not so sure that rescuing a cat from
a tree would be the easiest
assignment for a firefighter it would
depend on the size
and the scaredness of the cat this one
though recently did its part to help
out after it reportedly spent 48 hours
in the branches
rescuers in london were called they
raised a ladder and they were about to
climb up to fetch the kitty
that's when kitty rescued itself calmly
making its way
down the ladder 10 out of 10. the cat
might have been on its last rung before
the rescue
but it didn't have to be roped in or
pulled down once firefighters came
taking it step by step the courageous
kitty extension itself a bit
catchesly meowing down to a landing on
its four feet without ever going off the
rails
great falls is the location of today's
shout out i'm glad that has nothing to
do with the cat story
great falls high school is in great
falls south carolina
the only place we look for shout out
schools is on our youtube channel
