well now, next week, again, off the coast of ireland. russia says it's going to mount major naval war game exercises. this comes right on the heels of that spy ship off of donegal. ireland is still really rattled by the -- prospect -- literally the cables that connect europe to north america may already have been targeted by russian ships recently. and since then, in norway they've had two different sets of undersea cables cut under very suspicious circumstances. and now russian naval forces are coming back to the irish coast for war games next week. look at this, here's the irish times. quote, the exact location of the drill is an area known as the porcupine sea bite, southwest of cork. that exact location is also causing anxiety in ireland. if the purposes of the exercise derby nine, it would be far easier to russia to hold these exercises closest to his own shores. emily sources say it's not unheard of for foreign navies to conduct drills in the side the irish economic zone. but quote, they usually have a good reason for its, it makes

so the city of dairy and the entire northern ireland and a republic of ireland commemorates this massacre. m a. tell us if you could, why am is bloody sunday a significant event in the history of the northern island called a conflict? well, it's really, it's really a tipping point in the northern ireland countries, which we also know as the troubles they do span over well over 3 decades. but on that day on or what is known as blood is sunday, there's those 13 civilians, all catholics were killed. some of them were shot in the box. some we're already tending to people injured and they were killed. others were, or, you know, waving a white handkerchief when they were, when they were shocked by british pirates. you bruce a dis, marks we the tipping point because after a bloody sunday we so an increase of people joining the i r a d r is republican army in response to that massacre. so it's only where sent an already 10 situation in our land, in northern ireland, and not only there actually because the conflict also affected the u. k. and mainland europe. now these events happened 50 years ago

then there's ireland. a couple months before the first set of norwegian undersea cables was mysteriously cut, a couple months before that, the irish government got righteously freaked out when this russian ship turned up across from donegal. and in terms of its technical capacity, lots of governments around the world think that this is a huge spy ship. and they think specifically the russian navy built this ship to target undersea cables. among other things, this ship can launch a bunch of different small manned submarines that can dive super deep. that can dive like 20,000 feet deep. and when this ship turned up off the coast of -- west coast of ireland, here's how the "times" reported on irish worries that that russian ship maneuvering off the irish coast might be messing with undersea cables and communications. you see the head line, russian spy ship monitored coast of donegal. the part of the russian navy arrived unexpectedly off the donegal coastline on tuesday night. again, this is in august last yea

the wounded and a catastrophe for the people of northern ireland. early i spoke to jeremy corbin, formerly the labor party leader in london. he has been active in political affairs related to the conflict in northern ireland for many years now. i asked him if previous labor governments are also culpable in what's perceived as a denial of justice for the victims, families. every british government has had some culpability in the lack of convictions. the labor government of 1997 did introduce a or did ensure that was an a 2nd sci fi. the 1st sci fi happened under john nature and did under the guidance of my modem. tony blair was prime minister the time didn't bring about the peace process did bring about the belfast agreement. but the girl 1st agreement, vital and import, does it. spain, to maintain a relative peace in northern ireland since 1998 has not insured. there are prosecutions and that is the fundamental question and, and so i, you hold no parties on nature of this over party politics. what i want to say is justice. that means a, an ability f

how do you think that the travels shapes and continue to shape the northern ireland we see today? oh, very much so. i mean, the scars of the troubles are still felt a generation on and, and indeed the divisions in northern ireland are still very much there. and, and part of the reason for that is, is, is related to the, the feeling that justice has not been done. and that's a feeling on all sides. one of the most unpopular decisions that the british government has made in recent years is to indemnify people involved in, in murders in northern ireland from prosecution. that was motivated primarily to protect british army soldiers like those who participated, embody sundays from prosecution and, and that has stopped society away from moving on. it has moved on now. and in many fundamental respects, it's important to emphasize that norden arms in a much better place than it was 30 years ago. but there is lingering feeling past the, the issues that are, that, that were at the heart of the troubles have not been fully resolved. and of course, that's been exacerbated in recent years by

for ireland's navy, what it really was, was a warning for these guys. fishermen with say they plan to disrupt russia's war games exercises next week which are scheduled to take place in the waters where they fish, where they make their living. because these fishermen are undeterred by the russian government's statement about those war games, that would be an understatement. listen to this. are you aware of that, that the russian embassy is saying well, your behavior is reckless. >> how is it reckless to go out in a boat and protest peacefully to say we, you are not welcome in our waters how is that reckless? >> they're saying it is -- >> how is that reckless? i'm not going to entertain any russian embassy or any ambassador whatever, joe. i'll tell you, this is directly to that gentleman there. if anybody tries to impede my freedom of movement in irish waters -- >> well they're international waters. >> they're going to be in trouble. >> i come back to the statement from the russian ambassador he said -- >> i have no relationship with the russian ambassad

i mean, because you grew up in derry in northern ireland, didn't you? yep. and you were a working class lad. yeah. how did a working class punk from derry end up...? this is considered the gentleman's sport! it's a long time since anybody called me that, i have to tell you. well, ironically enough, if you want to get into fly fishing, there is no finer place than northern ireland. a, it's not considered elitist because lots of people do it. it's cheap, it's easily accessible and it's open to all. so, by way of example, when i was growing up in derry i could go to the middle of town, get on a bus and, 20 minutes later, be standing on the banks of a river on the edge of derry called the faughan. and, to this day, it's still got salmon running up the river faughan. and i think, at the time, membership of the faughan anglers association was, like, 15, 20 quid or something. and once that cross—community? yeah, there was never... i don't remember on the bank of any lock, lake, river... so you might be fishing next to a protestant, there are bombs going off and y

in northern ireland? it’s of what is going to be changing in northern ireland?— northern ireland? it's all about stuff that matters _ northern ireland? it's all about stuff that matters to _ northern ireland? it's all about stuff that matters to you i northern ireland? it's all about stuff that matters to you if i northern ireland? it's all about stuff that matters to you if you | stuff that matters to you if you want to go out for a pint or sit down for a meal or go out for a dance, because up until now, because of their worries about omicron, the restrictions had come back in, seeks only have six to a table, he had to sit down, canterbury word is any more nightclubs were completely closed, so that's all going be ending. as for the vaccine passports, the right complete agreement about these when they reported in the first place, the dup had opposed them, the other four parties and executive had backed them. so there is some welcome relief from the hospitality industry about these relaxations, because

to ireland now where thousands of people attended candlelight vigils across the country in memory of a young woman who was murdered in broad daylight. earlier this week. ashley murphy was the victim of an unprovoked attack while jogging along a popular route in the central town of tula, moore. she died at the scene from her injuries. the case has re ignited public anger about violence against women and girls. gender based violence is on the rise worldwide with the united nations warning of an emergency invisible emergency that must be interest. for more, i'm joined in the studio by d w. political correspondent, manuel shares, who has been following the story for us. manuel, why has this particular case generated so much attention in ireland? i mean, we know that violence against women is sadly, a very common occurrence. very common, but none of those very shocking does it. constancy of that case, particularly shocking. i think he was only 23 years old. she was just out for a run in, in a quiet name neighborhood. she was actually running on the part that had been renamed in memory of

so i think there's very much a feeling in ireland. there is no way everyday faithful women anytime of the day or night and dots in a global context in a worldwide context of increasing violence against women. so if there is so much attention, there's so much media coverage. can we expect any concrete changes than to come along? i mean, there been statements by government ministers, so will the talk translate into any kind of new policies? well, you know, every time we hear about such a case, be dad of ashley murphy, big, big data, a sarah ever out in london last year. we might think this is a tipping point. you know, emotions are and high people take to the streets, we hear declarations from politicians. for example, this week we heard the t shirts or the irish ahead of government. me how martin saying that gender based violence would not be tolerated in ireland. these are the deputy ahead of government. earlier of our car said that men and boys in ireland have a responsibility to start a conversation about what he calls. i quoted the
