see in such an india seoul on al-jazeera. i am. going to. 0. hello i'm convinced this is the news our live from doha coming up in the next 60 minutes a possible victory for the syrian government reports indicate their army is in full control of the all important aleppo damascus highway for the 1st time in 8 years and. objective remains containment a team from the world health organization arrives in beijing the chinese government by several local officials come also. read.

military says it's killed $101.00 syrian government soldiers and the province retaliation for the deaths of 5 of its troops on monday let's take a closer look at who is in control of what to areas in syria government troops and the. allies are advancing with the help of russian air power of captured all of the m 5 highway the road is crucial to the country's economy the m 4 highway which is one of the main roads linking latakia and it led to the rest of the country is partly under rebel control turkey has a number of observation posts along its borders several a surrounded by syrian troops they include the one that came under fire on monday prompting turkish retaliation. same question all that was inside syria at a how are not far from the turkish border she joins us now live sam just bring us up to speed what's happening there on the ground. well

there are reports that claim that the syrian government forces have full taken control of the m 5 highway is there but we are also hearing from the local sources that it is not true yet because the syrian armed opposition has launched an offensive around the star rock of area almost half an hour ago let me say in the last one hour and this means today might bring something else by the end of the day we will have an idea whether the syrian government will mean able to fully take control of the highway or. or just the opposite but sill in that area by the m 5 highway around the cirrhotic of area while violent clashes continue also in the western countryside of. aleppo the clashes continue also from the opposition side we've been hearing that they have destroyed several army carriers tanks in the arctic and mayra area close against iraq and the opposition.

and the syrian opposition groups have been sharing a video that shows that they shut down a helicopter that belongs to the syrian government forces it's been circulating on the social media in the last one hour and they are celebrating this actually for them shutting down a series called a culture of syrian government is very important for now we don't know where the helicopter an exactly they fell down and what happened afterwards but this is what they have been circulating around on the other side there are some news from the russian side coming over the russians as. statement by kremlin says that they are concerned about the situation inside live and. a stand up process this collations procedures for this collision zone should be under way this is

maybe the 1st time that moscow has had such an abiding statement for the last one riga specially after turkish call noise have been attacked turkey has been defending that this collation zone borders have been should be protected and now moscow says the same thing also russian deputy foreign minister said that they are in communication with the americans to talk about that to talk about the situation inside that this is the latest on the ground and on the diplomats aside thank you for their dancing in question although there live from baba hala or for more on this we can speak now to syria researcher crystal who is in london thank you for your time mr doyle can you explain to our viewers why this highway is so important. well this is the the m 5 highway and it connects the north to the south of the country the political capital of damascus to the economic plan that is elect and it has been out of the syrian regime's control

since 2012 course it's recaptured parts of it so where it confirmed that it holds this bike lottery it would be a crucial part of the regime's narrative that it's winning the war against the rebel opposition that it's returning life to normal and it would mean that goods and traffic could return along this highway which would make it much easier than the route that x. take for example out of aleppo to the southeast which is a very long detour but of course a word of caution i mean you know securing the highway right now we hear from your ports quite rightly that it's perhaps not completely under the regime control is one thing holding it will be another it will be vulnerable and it will be vulnerable until really the majority of the province of it is under that the syrian regime's control so it's obviously for the regime this is

a positive move forward it is something that they've been aiming to do for a very very long time this is no shock no surprise as to what no strategic objective in this assault on it live is getting this my way and they also would like to have him for highway the next of the coast to aleppo as well that would mean that really it had all the major communication arts resolver it's so full what we are saying is in advance of that last rebel stronghold as you mentioned if they have in syria is this the beginning of the end do you think. i think there is an almost inexorable sense that at some point the province for all remember this is the last one that is not under the regime's control now and inch by inch mile one mile. is going into the way of damascus now the only thing that tension could interrupt that. progress it is

turkish forces and we have seen turkey sending in military hardware into the province to back up the rebels that it has supported for so long but how. how long will turkey keep this up is it truly committed to holding out here or is it a way of perhaps trying to get some of the fighters that it has deployed back out of the province sort of to use this as leverage for a negotiating position which you have to see but you know eventually one would have to assume over the ensuing months or that their profits will go back on the control of the syrian regime this course will have massive consequences we have seen hundreds of thousands of syrian civilians displaced maybe $600000.00 you know over the last month or 2. they have nowhere to go some of them managed to make it out to

areas like africa. but they are now having to survive in the most important conditions it's knowing in many areas if it's minus 6 degrees and many of them are without shelter hours even in the open there are people children freezing to death so it's no hauling situation at a humanitarian level the syrian opposition but those who want to see the syrian regime go it is also another dark moment for them because of that happening it looks like the syrian regime is going to reestablish. it's all over the letter to syria you're quite right the civilian side of things we should not forget 100000 people have fled to live in just the past week we're hearing we'll have to leave it there for now though that's syria researcher christo a live from london thank you thank you to other news now the number of people

killed by the corona virus outbreak has now passed 1000 chinese officials announced another 109 deaths that's the biggest single day jump since the outbreak began in december and who better province the epicenter of the virus health workers are struggling to contain it local officials are being blamed for acting too slowly in the early stages and to health officials have been removed from office a team from the world health organization has arrived in china the head of the w.h.o. has warned of the growing risk of a global pandemic as the world sees more human to human transmissions outside of china and india recently less we have seen some concerning instances of only war transmission from people with no travel history to china like the cases reported in france yesterday and the united kingdom today the detection of this small number of cases could be the spark that becomes

a bigger fire but for no it's only a spark or objective remains containment now in thailand passengers on a cruise ship of being refused permission to disembark the u.s. company which owns the ship says there's no reason to believe anyone on board has the virus the west today has already been turned away from japan and from the fear the pains let's speak now to adrian brown he joins us live from hong kong adrian some dire predictions coming out from some public health officials about possible transmissions globally what more can you tell us. yes this warning you refer to comes from a guy called present professor gabriele alone he's the head of public health at hong kong university he's in geneva at the moment and he gave an interview in which he said that unless this virus is contained that it could spread to 60 percent of the world's population that is a very very dire prediction now he's actually in geneva at the moment attending

a forum of the world health organization which is where the head has been talking you just played a clip of him a short time ago and of course what he is doing this hong kong official is echoing what the head of the w.h.o. has been saying that we could be seeing more and more people who've never set foot in china now becoming infected you know they're not using the really scary word pandemic at the moment but that may be about to happen unless this virus is brought under control the w.h.o. have now dispatched that team to china they arrived on monday the task of this team is really to assess how they can contain the virus from spreading and also to get 1st hand analysis from the chinese about what they should be doing but perhaps aren't you know they are working in partnership with the chinese government have to be very careful because china of course is in charge of the response to this

outbreak in china talk to us about these health officials have been removed from office is this the beginning of some sort of purge. i think it might be state media confirmed on choose day that 2 officials from the health commission in who had been removed from their post the most senior officials to lose their jobs since this crisis began these officials are essentially being blamed for in a sense covering up the extent of the outbreak in early january that seems to be because there was a very important political gathering happening in wu han at the time and perhaps they didn't want it to be overshadowed by you know an emergency the same officials also approved a banquet attended by 40000 people just a few days before they declared that it was going into lockdown so these officials

are being made to be accountable what's not going to happen is you're not going to see the very top of the chinese leadership held accountable the system in china is designed in a sense to prevent that happening so it's local officials who are going to take the blame it's being late quite you know quite clearly at their feet thanks for that bad adrian brown now at the very latest from hong kong. the crown of virus is having a devastating impact on the chinese economy according to analysts a leading government think tank believes a whole percentage point could be wiped off economic growth this year while independent economists estimate growth of just 3.6 percent in the 1st 3 months of this year that's way below their previous 4.8 percent prediction and more than $300.00 companies are waiting for loans worth 8200000000 dollars to stave off job losses there's also disruption to trade and events outside of china lawrence foley has more now from the singapore air show. it's one of the biggest highlights.

to give a precise dane but in any case nothing before the autumn so this means will have a product by september or october when we can say for certain danger we can use it on people frustratingly for scientists the development time for a new vaccine often means it's not available until the outbreak they need it for has peaked or is dying out but at least research is working on this corona virus have a head start thanks to work already done on similar viruses. at the international vaccine institute in seoul as elsewhere staff have experience dealing with other members of the same coronavirus family including mers from the middle east and the sars outbreak of 2003 what typically happens is we have an operate people get very concerned governments get concerned the television has lots of broadcasts and then the outbreak ends and concern ends and then funding ends and you know we have

a number of vaccines that we have for sars that haven't ever been tested in humans in the absence of a specific vaccine antiviral drugs for other conditions are also being tested it's lead to more scientists calling for a coordinated development of prototype vaccines able to deal with entire families of viruses that can be adapted for a future outbreak because the goal of course is to have one on the shelf that you could use against the next virus that might emerge as well as the one that we're currently dealing with the global response to this outbreak could be a step towards greater cooperation broad al-jazeera so. find your head on the news all including we take a look at how india is governing party is doing and crucial state elections. plus mourning a leader thousands pay their respects in kenya to a man with a mixed legacy. and in sports the sprinter from this year hoping her dreams of an

legislation to protect women's rights and his foreign policy will see lebanon keeping itself away from regional conflicts as anahata is live for us and by resigning just tell us what's happening where you are. will parliament is in session anti-establishment protesters were not able to prevent that session from happening they did gather at the number of locations around arguments square in the hope of preventing the m.p. from arriving to the building but as you can see behind the heavy security presence army and security personnel they were deployed in the streets and they forcibly opened roads the states really did not hesitate to use. force of water cannons tear gas and a number of protesters were beaten up and taken to hospital so the message from the state is we are holding this session the vote of confidence in the new government will take place the prime minister has sat here reading his government's policy statement to the lawmakers really promising what has been promised in the past to

fight corruption at a result of the economic and financial crisis in the country but people have lost me in the new government they believe yes there may be new faces but these people were appointed by the political parties who have been governing this country for the past 3 decades but like i mentioned the protesters are up against an increasingly militarized state but the biggest question is even if this government gets a vote of confidence in parliament they do hold the parliamentary majority and it doesn't have support in the streets more importantly doesn't have the support of the international community it needs billions of dollars in aid in order to save this country's economy and the messages that are coming from about so there is a western nations as well as the united nations says this time around that there will be no blank checks if you do not implement the necessary reforms and carry out the necessary reforms and fight corruption thanks for that that's $800.00 there live from beirut. iran's president johnson rouhani

has addressed tens of thousands of people in tehran on the 41st anniversary of the islamic revolution this year's celebration comes at a time when tensions remain high with the u.s. just last month washington killed iran's top army general cost them some good money to run retaliation by launching a missile strike against an army base housing u.s. soldiers in iraq already common military you don't run us what is the u.s. looking for the u.s. wants the nation to surrender they want to plunder of land or remorseful government rejecting responsibility that's the mistake by the u.s. the u.s. doesn't know that the government the armed forces the 3 branches of the establishment and the nation they are all moving under the banner of the islamic republic and the leadership and will remain steadfast the americans just want to create problems with respect to basic needs. well let's speak now to mohammad marandi here is into iran he is the head of the american studies department at the

university of tehran good to have you on the program as always mr marandi let's take an rouhani speech 1st off he's been encouraging people to vote in the upcoming elections analysts say rouhani needs a high voter turnout for the just the juda mysie because of the anger that the leadership is facing from the iranian people right now what do you think. but i don't think that anyone can really at this stage determine what the turnout will be before the elections actually. before the elections have actually taken place it does seem that interest is growing there although there is a lot of fragmentation among the political parties the so-called principle there so now divided into different groups the government and the reformists they seem to be splitting into separate groups so there's a lot of confusion about what sort of lists and candidates there will be in tehran

because tehran people vote for the whole city not for particular district so they vote for a list of people in small towns the local politics that's often more important than national politics at least on par with that so they have their own dynamics but at this stage i i don't think that there's any reason to think that there will be a particularly low turnout it was interesting rouhani is comments about the elections and encouraging people to turn out saying that the elections could be criticised obviously because so many people have been bothered from running but let's talk more generally now iran is under a lot of pressure right now economically politically from within protests people are angry how much longer do you think this can go on. why i couldn't hear you very well the last sentence that you said but i think that one thing that we have to keep in mind is that when gen soleimani was murdered by

the americans we saw the enormous crowds that took part in his funeral in tehran in the in the millions some say up to 8000000 people in teheran alone participated and i think that's he he obviously symbolizes much of what this comic republic of iran stands for and therefore that itself shows the high degree of legitimacy that the state has so i think often western analysts and western think tanks and western media they it's more about wishful thinking rather than real facts on the ground so we didn't start from allison's there if i guess i may or may did as the narrative that they promote we did also see thousands of people turnouts protesting against the leadership of the downing of the ukrainian and lima so i mean there is anger isn't there. yes but that's always the case in every country you can't compare really the millions of people who participated in general

so the money is funeral with a few 100 people who tore his picture. a week or 2 later in the protests that you were talking about i think i think again this is something that western countries have been they've they believe their own propaganda and they've been saying this for 41 years ever since i've. been a teenager after the revolution the islamic republic has always been on the verge of collapse in some popular it's hated it's despised and so on yet at the same time ironically western outlets repeatedly say ron is a rising threat how can a a state which is collapsing in a popular be a rising threat this paradox is some is not resolvable but again it's something that you constantly hear from the west and since they believe their own propaganda or their analysis is based more on wishful thinking then their policies the policies that they create are unrealistic and thus they fail and they're always surprised why does iran continue to exist and thrive i think though if they were if

they were really serious and they wanted to be objective i think the funeral alone says more than enough well have lived there for time thank you for that though that's mohammad marandi there thank you. at least 6 people have died in europe as storm kero brought hurricane force winds knocking down trees and damaging buildings cleanup efforts are now under way in the u.k. off the heavy rain left hundreds of homes and businesses underwater in france strong winds cut power to thousands of people the storm grounded hundreds of flights and delayed rail services across northwest europe. torrential rain has flooded parts of brazil's that most populous city resistance el pollo have overflowed effecting major roads emergency crews have rescued people who've been trapped on top of their cars for hours the rains caused months lived in other parts of the city and people in baghdad of working up to a surprise store for blanketing the iraqi capital it's common to snow in the north

of the country but in the lowlands around baghdad it's very unusual the last time it started there wasn't 2015. time now for the weather has every 10 and away have got to win and rain and now snow yeah that snow is in the middle east came so i think. over the next couple of days it's turning colder no snow here in doha but it really will be on the chilly side over the next couple of days you can see the area which brought the snow further north out of key syria iraq pushing across into iran these pictures coming out of syria good covering of snow for syria there some heavy and some wet snow piling up there always a good chance to get out and make a snowman of course as we've been hearing that snow has extended south of the border into iraq a fair bit of iraq this is mosul in the north the south beyond baghdad we had a good covering of snow think about it and again a chance to have

a little snowball fights of course that there was cause that unusual sight of snow in baghdad a good little dusting here across a good parts of the city the worst of the wintry weather now in the process of making its way further east was cooler air coming in behind baghdad still struggling to get into double figures as we go on through the remainder of the shoes day damascus similarly so and that 6 way down towards kuwait will struggle to get to 10 degrees celsius here on wednesday afternoon here in doha the winds pick up to go to samoa wind coming in it really will feel quite cold as we go on through the middle console flat week if it doesn't stand to watch out for as well we're turning a little milder towards the weekend thanks that. still ahead on al-jazeera what does donald trump's middle east time mean for. head of the u.n. agency for palestinian refugees joins our stop to the brain. and be aisy champions league kicks off despite the absence of chinese teams due to be corona virus

and palestine reach an agreement the agency is responsible for everything from education and health care to running refugee camps and relief services $5600000.00 palestinian refugees fall under its mandate of half a 1000000 children attended schools in $29000.00 its budget was $749000000.00 more than half of that is spent on education the agency says it's facing the worst financial crisis in its history and is appealing for at least $1400000000.00 for 2020 this comes after trying to offer all u.s. funding in 2018 nearly a 3rd of the agency's budget on the pious rail joins me now and said he's the director of the un relief agency for palestine refugees thank you so much for coming into the studio so let's talk about the middle east peace plan this deal under the deal your agency would cease to exist towards your reaction. well there's a couple of comments to make the 1st one is we are an instrument of the united nations our bosses are the member states that meet in the general assembly of the

united nations they renewed our mandate by with 170 votes in december no individual country or a small group of countries can take decisions on those have to be taken in new york in the general assembly that's the 1st comment the 2nd comment is that for us we have a mandate to provide vital services to the refugees you've mentioned 5600000 of them who are registered and that mandate is linked to finding a just solution so the problem is not the problem is finding a just political solution and there is a very clear consensus that on to a just solution is found accepted by all sides to the conflict we need to continue providing the education the health services and the food and as far as you're personally concerned the middle east peace plan from donald trump is not the just solution that you're looking for you know i haven't studied the details of it and i cannot really comment on it it is a bit surprising when one side of the conflict decides this is the direction it

should take for us in the united nations a peace allusion has to come through negotiations with both sides of the palestinians included sitting at the table so that's there's a major flaws with the process in this as we've been reporting the u.n. security council today was meant to vote on a draw for his allusion which was actually already using quite mild language to critique the middle east peace plan it doesn't have the support that it needs or wants does the international community still care about. that's a good question from an order or a perspective the international community still cares in 2018 when as you mentioned the united states government caught all of it supports $350000000.00 worth of it we had a tremendous reaction of solidarity in $2842.00 countries and institutions like the you gave us an extra $450000000.00 they had not planned and so the solidarity is

there i mentioned earlier that in december we got a new mandate voted for by a 170 countries the real challenge we have at the moment is that countries need to vote for the continuation of all services also need to put their money where their mouth is and so we are struggling financially but not as a lack of solidarity there are many factors there are many conflicts around the world and countries of course have to prioritize the spots resources they have the last question about to make about the middle east peace plan and it refugees who've already settled in a permanent location will not be eligible for resettlement i mean these are people and the children who were forced to flee their homes what are your thoughts on this or the position of order and i believe the united nations has always been that refugees who were forced off their land 70 years ago refugees and their descendants are entitle to some rights and a just solution we are not the ones who need to determine that you know there's

been talk of a right to return there's been talk about compensation there's talk about resettlement the details will have to be negotiated again by the parties to the conflict for us the main thing is it's about justice and dignity for refugees deserve like all of us just and dignified life with full rights as everyone else as is the u.s. trying to usurp the u.n. when it comes to palestinian refugees. i cannot comment on their motives. we are in gaza where i work i've been to several of our schools which at the entry have a plucks a this was built with us so until 2018 the united states was the key country one of the key countries that made a tremendous development success story happened we've had 2000000 children or more that have gone through our schools and i just met one of your staff here who started in the rumor school and is now a producer working for each of the euro there are countless success stories like

that our appeal to the united states and all government is protect this invest and build on what you've invested into for 70 years and reinforce your efforts to find a just solution we'll have to leave it there for time thank you so much for coming into the studio that's what they're the director of the u.n. relief agency for palestine refugees thank you. on the u.s. the new hampshire primary has officially started in the small town of dixville notch a tradition that goes back nearly 60 years the town's residents were the 1st to counts ballots in the state and with votes cast so early they were among the 1st to declare results for tuesday's election michael bloomberg was victorious receiving 3 votes while the people who judged and bernie sanders received one each. more than 2 thirds of voters in new hampshire are independent voters play an important role in selecting the party's nominee and this is there is kristen salumi reports that can make the outcome hard to predict. new hampshire resident jonathan blitz says he

leans republican sue inly will board lean democrat but like many voters in the state they don't belong to a political party this is serious stuff and we need to change the direction of the country they were among hundreds of voters who lined up to see democrat pete would a judge in a school auditorium on balancing between p. and burning right now although i do like even closer to a little bit. with no clear front runner for the democratic presidential nomination these independent voters are in high demand particularly by middle of the road candidates like to judge when you're coming up here to run for president you're not just appealing to the members of your own party but you're also trying to reach those folks in the middle who might vote for your party but not want to identify with it maybe are not as ideological maybe a bit more pragmatic minded 42 percent of the electorate here has no party affiliation and unlike voters in other states independents in new hampshire can

vote in either primary democrat or republican that's led to some surprise finishes in the past. in 2016 bernie sanders who comes from the neighboring state of vermont beat party favorite hillary clinton here by more than 20 percent with this strong base of support he could win the primary again in 2020 but this year is like none other due to the large field of democrats and a president who's loved by his base despised by the left. so if you're a voter who doesn't like bernie sanders you're not just thinking which candidate do i like more than bernie sanders who currently which candidate who is not bernie sanders do i like can i support who i think has the best shot of beating him it's a job these voters take seriously we're still debating but i think he would be an excellent choice for the crowds in the united states i'm excited about to what i've heard a warrior more like right here on take you still not decided. to close in on

not making the outcome hard to predict kristen salumi al-jazeera nashua new hampshire that's the one percent of americans live in new hampshire so you might be wondering why it's always 1st on the primary calendar as andrew chappelle. so why does new hampshire one of the smallest u.s. states play such a pivotal role in choosing the democratic nominee much is due to tradition candidates have braved the cold to try and woo new hampshire voters for the past 100 years in this 1st in the nation primary now the state's election laws require it to be 1st let's go but the primaries seem to be increasingly irrelevant for democrats because the state's demographics no longer match up with the rest of the nation americans in new hampshire are on average wealthier whiter and older than the rest of the country 42 percent of voters there hadn't made up their minds as of last week winning in new hampshire can breathe life into a campaign after

a setback in iowa as it did for hillary clinton in 2008 we want to thank the people of new hampshire. and for donald trump in 2016 his 1st primary win that year bernie sanders won by more than 20 points and he's hoping for another decisive win in the granite state unlike that chaotic caucus in iowa which saw him effectively tied with pete now losing in new hampshire won't necessarily spell disaster for a presidential campaign bill clinton george w. bush and barack obama all lost in the state before going on to win the white house . and it's governing party is expected to lose a major state election its 1st electoral test since anti-government protests began 2 months ago but counting is underway for the delhi legislative assembly and the results suggest the liberal aadmi party is well ahead of prime minister narendra modi's j.p. the government has been out of precious since a new citizenship lol. mourners are attending

a public memorial service in nairobi kenya and president daniel mori he led the country for 24 years until 2002 he died last week at the age of 95 as and so is live for us in nairobi catherine tell us about his legacy. probably let me just start by telling you that the heads of state regional heads of state for this service have been given an opportunity to. express their condolences and give their tribute right now kenya's president who speaking and of all think that was the state man of peace and unity was really quite respected across the continent but coming back home it's really a mixed bag of really when it comes to his legacy those who lived through his era as president say that he was larger than life he was an enigma he presence was felt

everywhere there was so much fear at that time that people even those who are not interested in politics will be aren't to speak out about anything because who knows who defeated or standing next to you it could be a spy a lot of other people are saying that he was a dictator who presided over a government that. consented to a detention and torture of a thousands of people queued arrested detained what tortured during the present mores reign many of them died as well a people thing that he brought the economy to its knees that comrie was really struggling during his time but then there are others who say that look you hear him some credit he did agree to hand over power peacefully in 2002 after 24 years in power huge steps the country relatively stable when other neighboring countries why are essentially in conflict he'll. i helped build many schools and universities and
