6:11 am
newer surgical cases authentic cases all of them need to travel abroad because of shortage of persil it is induced by the israeli blockade in gaza strip and why can't they travel abroad because the bulk of our seed must of time and what these patients should probably in time he can say to a patient why when cancer come back up to three months that he will deteriorate and you have too much complication they cannot wait life long waiting for this part of dropping. the posts that will be used to being kept hidden organizes fear israel will try to destroy them before they leave the port and reality the boats are not going to get any further than israel's maritime blockade which is as tightly and harshly enforced as the land blockade but at least those on the boats will highlight again the open prison like conditions that there are here in gaza the prevent almost anyone from leaving burnitz with al-jazeera gaza. still ahead on the bulls and the reaction to a rally against refugees staged by germany's far right movement and while a kind of virus spread by bats is for some people in southern india to stay away

6:13 am
a few showers as well and that storm alberto is still dragging plenty of cloud with it you can see many of those clouds are over parts of cuba at the moment more heavy rain expected here as we head through monday and tuesday as well the clouds actually trail all the way down towards panama and into colombia as well as we head down towards south america plenty of dry weather to be found here but there is more in the way of wet weather pushing its way northward for when is ari's there as we head to through monday and for santiago the rain's coming to us too and it will reach us on tuesday. the i. from cutting edge medical technology toxic venom could be a vast resource for the development of lifesaving drugs to advances in the most difficult regions of the world. come into thank you have. you. ever seen an innovative solution to global health problems to make

6:17 am
you know hearing them in little rallies on the streets of berlin this is a problem that's going to be causing ructions within the strata television the social democrats want to keep a liberal attitude towards refugees but to add them up those parties trying to tighten up the borders restrict immigration two hundred thousand a year so that's causing attention even within a grand coalition and we're going to see more scenes like this and we're going to hear more from the old turn to germany because now essentially they see this growing mainly the demographic supporters from the east blue collar workers the unemployed in the older people in the east in germany who fear their communities are being changed forever and who fear for their future so we'll see many more of these demonstrations and many more of these confrontations. to south africa now it's been a hundred days and so your posts i became president he took office after his
