See how his camera lens recorded AssociatedPress the events that have taken place in the world in the last seven days.

Minneapolis, USA: Justice for George Floyd and the world

A Minneapolis court has found Derek Zwyn guilty of manslaughter, manslaughter and violence that led to the death of African-American George Floyd last May. The 45-year-old former police officer was immediately taken out of the room and taken to prison.

The announcement of the verdict spread an explosion of joy in the courtroom. The lawyer of the family of the unfortunate African-American, with whom the President of the USA, Joe Biden, also communicated, spoke about a "turning point in history".

Following the announcement of the verdict, the crowd that had gathered outside the courts erupted in shouts, applause and cries. Most rhythmically chanted the name George Floyd, while others shouted "Black Lives Matter" and "guilty" of Derek Covin.

Elizabeth City, USA: Derek Covin Conviction Has No Redemption

Hours after a court ruled in favor of Derek Chovin and acquitted George Floyd, another African-American man was shot dead by police. The story of Andrew Brown J., who died in Elizabeth City, a small town in the state of North Carolina. Social cohesion in the US remains fragile and this is becoming increasingly clear.

London, England: Fans put… brake on 'coup'

An "earthquake" was caused in European football in the previous days, after the announcement by 12 of the top clubs in Europe for the creation of the Super League, a closed event that would radically change the sport on the old continent. However, strong reactions put a brake on this plan, even temporarily, with the fans of these groups reacting more than anyone else.

Alimos, Greece: The difficult game is coming to an end

The government is implementing a "road map" with a view to the gradual exit of Greece from a long period of lockdown. The measures have already eased in recent weeks, but after Easter there will be more. Release. People in urban centers need to be a little more patient, with ingenuity being necessary.

Gaza Strip: Thorough checks for a prayer

The effects of the pandemic in the Gaza Strip are tragic, with hospitals on the verge of collapse and funeral homes being in full swing. Hamas has imposed a night-time curfew, closing mosques where hundreds of worshipers flock for night prayers during Ramadan, while in Israeli-controlled territories, Palestinian controls are tight.

Tehran, Iran: An image that causes horror

If you take a look at the situation with the coronavirus cases and deaths in Iran, you will understand how dramatic the situation is. The casualties have increased exponentially, showing that things are very difficult. For these reasons, the authorities are creating mass graves, with the whole scene being creepy.

Caracas, Venezuela: Exit to the rooftops for some yoga

Things are going well with the pandemic in Venezuela as well (as in all of Latin America). Several rooftops of buildings gather a lot of people, in order to escape with a yoga and other. Escapes from a daily life that has become almost unbearable, after a long period when the coronavirus is afflicting humanity.

San Vicente Pacquiao, Guatemala: The volcano is an attraction

Pacquiao volcano in Guatemala has been "awake" lately. Authorities are still on alert, informing the residents of the surrounding area to avoid any unpleasant incident. However, because it is a spectacle not so frequent, there are many who take advantage of the situation to admire the… attraction.

Cape Town, South Africa: The fiery front brought terror

A fire broke out in Table Mountain, the emblematic mountain overlooking Cape Town. The flames destroyed part of a restaurant next to the monument erected in honor of British settler and politician Cecil Rhodes, while hundreds of students were forced to flee their homes on foot, walking along the main road to escape.
