More US police officers charged over George Floyd death as protests continue – BBC News

Published

on



All four police officers who were present when George Floyd was arrested in the US city of Minneapolis are now facing charges in connection with his death.

Derek Chauvin, the officer who was filmed kneeling on his neck, has had his charge increased to second degree murder. Three other police officers who were there have been charged with aiding and abetting murder.

George Floyd’s death has sparked huge protests in cities across America. The US Defence Secretary Mark Esper has distanced himself from President Trump’s suggestion that the military could be deployed to end the protests.

In London thousands of people have taken to the streets to protest over his death in an event organised by the campaign group Black Lives Matter.

Sophie Raworth presents BBC News at Ten reports from Barbara Plett Usher, Clive Myrie and Chi Chi Izundu.

    George Floyd, the guy who had a criminal record of violent crimes? I thought they released that info why is HE the focus. There have been actual unjust killings before but someone we should never had felt bad for is the one who sparked this violence? He shouldn't have been killed by the officer but he was far from heroic or innocent in his lifestyle.

    This all four cops must be put to murder charge, so police will learn a lesson, not misuse their power.

    Black culture in the USA and Britain is a victim culture, it has been born out if the civil rights movement, now that black people generally aren't discriminated against and have no legal barriers to their advancement there is a void, without discrimination this culture is bereft of any direction and so needs instances of opression real or imagined to function and make sense…..This is why we are seeing protests in Britain even though this incident has nothing to do with this country or our police. If you constantly tell people they are oppressed they'll begin to believe it, true or not.

Innocent people of all descent get screwed routinally, just on false police reports alone. The judges and das are just as guilty as the cops.

    the police knew about Furious George’s past, and they weren’t taking any chances with the ex-con. That would explain a lot. The unfortunate thing is that the police were trained by Isrealis who taught them these manuevers were the appropriate way to subdue arrestees. This isrealization of America is the real story here and the cause of our troubles.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
