the infection. senator bernie sanders now really wins the 1st primary vote in new hampshire but the race to decide who runs against donald trump in november is still wide open. with your sport formula one bosses postpone a chinese go on preview of the corona virus outbreak just a month from the start of the new season. and it's 1500 g.m.t. and we begin this news in turkey where the president has warned damascus against further provocations in syria's last rebel held territory. and says he will strike against government forces anywhere if they target turkish troops in provence he's also demanding syrian forces be pushed back beyond turkish observation post by the end of february. only civvies guard to know where the these attacks are directly

targeting our soldiers and directly targeting turkey there's no more time for talk we have to look at the realities on the field and by the end of february the regime must be pushed behind observation point whatever is needed on the ground or in the air we are not going to have any hesitation and we are going to act on it well syrian government forces have killed 15 turkish soldiers in it live in recent days and much of the fighting in the past week has focused on the m 5 highway that's a main trade route that links to mascots with government forces are now fully in control of that crucial highway where the fighting has triggered a humanitarian crisis that's displaced nearly 700000 people well in a moment we'll get the latest on the fighting in syria is it live province. is in our 1st let's go to how barra who is in istanbul and how she met threatening talk from president but will it have the effect that he desires that

will be determined by what happens on the coming in the coming days now the turkish government is going to further continue talks with the russian government about the need to implement a cease fire and convince the sea an army to pull out from the areas it controlled and respect the terms of the 2018 agreement that was signed. in libya. president cause of. war hard to make that message clear because there's growing ungar in turkey following the deaths of the turkish soldiers and this explains why he was very tough today delivering those sharp rebuke to the russian government and to the syrian army saying that by the end of february the syrian army has to pull out and that from now on was if any turkish soldier is hurt in any attack by the syrian government. turkey will deliver a strong reaction but i think the turkish government does understand this

particular moment that diplomacy should be given a least another chance now they have been getting strong support from the united states of america with the u.s. syria on boy james jeffrey here in turkey talking to senior officials about how to move forward he said that he supports the stance of turkey and he's been very critical of russia iran the syrian government and shia militias operating in syria for destabilizing the region and undermining the chances for any cease fire to be implemented it's a very fast moving situation a changing political landscape and turkey is trying to look for all the options all the possible scenarios in the near future and be prepared for that or thanks very much indeed let's move on to see an increase or glue who's live for us from power in syria and sit in what's the situation as far as the syrian troops are concerned what would soon position on the ground. well the

situation is basically a very tense for for the last 2 weeks especially the beginning of february given the tensions between turkey and is syrian military is ensuring the on the ground there are clashes between the syrian government forces and the opposition rebels and. in the last couple of hours we learned from our local sources that the syrian opposition just recently launched a ground offensive against the syrian government forces in the western countryside of aleppo and the places not very far from here they are they have launched an offensive with the hour to larry's only other side the syrian government forces also are advancing it's a wrap of the events by the syrian government by the way since since last december especially after them after they're taking over a model gnomon iraq and now they are close to

a 10 which is just 17 kilometers away and since the morning we've been hearing. we've been hearing the sounds of the rockets being launched a tad of area surrounding area of a target so basically the syrian government is 1st bombarding the areas and pushing to civilians out of the areas and then entering those villages and it's seems they are eager to continue from south to the north and take over a full control inside. of the escalation zone the spy it a multilateral agreement that it should be a de conflict zone to be at the arms area and the civilians shall be able to freely move here so given the situation given the rapid advance by the syrian government and the very harsh weather conditions there is a humanitarian crisis on the ground which has been there actually for many years

there are at least 4000000 people right behind turkish borders. and. at least 1000000 are by the border in our area and there is there's not enough space left for any more civilians and as the syrian government offensives continue there are more and more people displaced ever the everyday. nic and despite all these this is a proxy war the military experts say and both the syrian government and the turkish government are devoted to continue their reinforcements for their military bases of course so it is our know whether this is going to be a direct war or by the last war between iran and the muskets or will they end up with the magic solution or that's a picture from about how in syria cinnamon thank you and let's take this all we can speak now to our senior political analyst mom bashar bashar who joins us from london amman what do you think moscow is calling for restraint at home mode one

faces growing domestic pressure to act as any. absolutely which makes you wonder if the syrian regime is actually driving or trying to drive a wedge between onkar and moscow by this sort of escalation against and against the turkish forces in particular because with the death of a dozen or so. turkish soldiers clearly this upset president go on and the government in turkey so much so that they are now finally making some ultimatums and that 1st and foremost of course goes towards russia because they only got an at this point in time regarding the stability or whatever the stability means if you will in syria is some sort of a russian turkish agreement and with the turk and the russian president having met some 17 times over the last 40 years clearly the personal chemistry and the

relationship between the 2 is very important but more and more the turkish president seemed hesitant and the russian president seemed cynical because as the palaces continued the believing continues and the displacement continues in syria and now i think nic we're coming to a moment of truth and it's going to be in the month of february right and what it what sense the members truth where could that actually lead. well to be honest with the i mean that they're going to have to respond at this point in time after all the threats and the ultimatums been made and after the syrian regime has been warned turkey has no other options but to act if the syrian regime does not with dro to the original understanding of saatchi now the regime has been and the last several weeks making advances against those areas that were agreed upon to be under

certain formula agreed to in sochi but as i said the syrian regime also you know of course stripped for cash thought to be bankrupt. you know lost all credibility and in fact all the rights for sovereignty after the killing and the deaths of hundreds of thousands of syrians are trying to regain some legitimacy by being so aggressive against the turks in a place where russia had already made a deal so an escalation might look like or might have looked like it's in favor of the syrian regime but now the presidency is going to have to move because more escalation against them would be humiliating and more syrian advances and gains and lives would be humiliating and for the syrian regime not to listen to the turkish ultimatum will go down quite badly in unca and if turkey does act in that way in this month in the month of february what will that mean for the region is

sort of being battered into a 1000 pieces that is. absolutely but i mean look at what just happened the last 10 weeks at least 700000 new displaced syrians living in tents in freezing conditions i mean you know the secretary general of the united nations say something about how yemen is the worst possible humanitarian situation of a decade well maybe it's also syria it is unbelievable what's happening in syria and it's all met by more of the same you know european hesitancy not to say and worse and you know with the same american detachment and russian cynicism and iranian complicity and turkish hesitation so you know you have all these actors and none of them are coming together in any serious way in order to resolve anything and with the turks and the russians did try to reach something in

in the middle of 2018 and they tried to respect it when the russian sort of the syrian regime continues to drive a wedge continuous try to make advancement and regardless of the human cost and the human cost has just been incredible the tragedy in nor syria certainly continues as the moment for some serious decision approaches in february right no doubt about it does an ongoing tragedy amal and thanks very much indeed for that analysis moment bashara. now palestinians have welcomed a u.n. report on companies with business ties to illegal israeli settlements in the occupied west bank in a statement to the un said it had identified 112 business entities with reasonable grounds to conclude they have ties with israeli settlements among these was the us space and renting company b. and b. more this let's bring in stephanie decker in western some stuff tell us more about this and the type of companies involved. well

there $94.00 israeli companies 18 international companies this is a long delay a report was supposed to be released last year was delayed. a lot of criticism from activists it's now been released less than 24 hours after we saw the scene president mahmoud abbas address the u.n. security council rejecting donald trump's so-called deal of the century i think you know actually 1st me update you we've had as reaction from the israeli foreign ministry immediately after a very strong reaction calling this a state full surrender to pressure from states and organizations in harming israel's interests and also a stain on the human rights commission the palestinians of welcome to saying it is a victory for international law there are no legal sort of implications to this when it comes to any form of implementation however the question is you are now highlighting these companies whether these radio companies involved in these are companies banks mobile services gas stations that we know are operating in the

illegal settlements but whether those that have foreign dealings will be impacted and where these international companies you mentioned air b.n. b. there's also expedia there's booking dot com there's trip advisor there's a poto whether they are now going to be subject to some form of b.d.s. that's the boycott divestment and sanctions movement. against you know activities in the engine in the illegal settlements which are of course recognized by the u.n. and international law as illegally occupying palestinian land so certainly these readies not happy about this and they're going to have to really they have already reacted strongly or as their phones were supposed to have to occur reporting. another $39.00 people on board a cruise ship docked in japan have been infected with corona virus bringing the total to $175.00 the japanese health ministry says the new cases include a quarantine officer with more than 3700 people on the cruise it's become host to

the highest concentration of cases outside of china where the virus originated the diamond princess had been under quarantine since february 3rd after a passenger who got off the ship was diagnosed with the virus matthew smith is one of the passengers who doesn't have the virus but is under quarantine and he says most passengers on the ship have not been tested. you know it's it's really hard to measure an overall. mindset for the passengers as a whole and in fact the only information i really get about what other passengers are thinking is what i see on social media that they're sharing or in the news that they've reported to a journalist because we're. trying to our cabin we're not among the groups that are allowed out onto the deck because we have our own balcony and can get. fresh air and and light there and we don't associate it we don't go out and talk to

the other people on the balconies because we just want to maintain the isolation i know that they have and men when we return to yokohama initially last week the japanese health officials did come on board and take everyone's temperatures and based on that and and self reporting of symptoms they identified the admission a batch of people who then got the actual test for the virus and since then they've been testing people who come down to the medical center complaining of of the symptoms but the only ongoing monitoring of everyone else is that we've been provided with her mom and hers and asked to take our temperatures and then if you identify. a high temperature your your supposed to go down to the medical center so i don't i haven't wrists heard a figure from the captain about exactly how many people have been tested but it's a very small portion of the. well another cruise ship that was turned away by 5 countries over fears of corona virus is now docked in cambodia the m s westerdam is

carrying more than $2200.00 passengers it's been at sea for days japan taiwan guam the philippines and thailand they all refused entry to the ship despite there being no confirmed cases on board and all the while singapore's largest bank that d.b.s. has evacuated 300 staff from its head office after one of its employees was infected with the coronavirus and 50 confirmed cases have been reported in the city states officials say there is mounting evidence of local transmission. but more ahead on the news hour including. france's dismisses a controversial proposal. could be ordained as a priest. or why boeing has struggled to take a single order for us last night. and the portuguese big wave surfer is lucky to be alive after an accident at one of the world's most dangerous events peter the

details a bit later and. now iraqi security forces have reopened a bridge in central baghdad that had been blocked since anti-government protest danton october it's part of an effort to restore normal operations in the city less than 2 weeks after mohammed a tough week allawi was named prime minister designate simona fulton has more now from baghdad. sinek bridge here in baghdad history opened for the 1st time since anti-government demonstrations began and of october you can once again see traffic is moving across this bridge over the river tigris now of course this bridge has been extremely important throughout the protests and has been the location of some of the major standoffs between protesters and government forces we have seen some major attacks against the most heinous occur on this bridge so as of now we only

have one bridge that still remains closed here in the budget battle of course what the demonstrators have been trying to do here is to obstruct bridges and roads as part of a civil disobedience campaign to try to bring daily life to hold they want to prevent people from going about going to work they want to prevent businesses from operating all as part of an effort to try to force the government to listen to their demands now since the appointment of mohamed tawfik allow me as the prime minister designate shia cleric mulcted al sadr who has until now mostly supported the demonstrators has called on them to open up roads to open up bridges for penalties against those who don't comply in the course of the most traders will not be happy about the opening of this bridge but some people are likely to welcome this move because as you can see here there are a lot of businesses who are located in proximity to this bridge in proximity to this road and they have suffered greatly as

a result of this closure they have been called up inside clashes between the demonstrators and security forces we have seen even some of these shops being burned in the clashes between those 2 sides so these business owners are likely to welcome the return of normal life like it's really to see an increase in business once again now it remains to be seen how to demonstrators who will react to this move and whether they will try to retake this bridge of course we have. at the frontlines if you want to call them that all of these demonstrations have shifted from one place to another but the cynic which has always been very important for the demonstrators and some of them have said that they will try to take it back to what we have to watch and see is how the security forces will react we have seen security forces deployed on top of this bridge and it remains to be seen that whether one protesters will try to retake this area where the security forces will use force to make sure that this bridge and the streets will remain open. a protest

has taken place outside libya's national oil corporation headquarters in tripoli against the closure and blockade of many of the country's oil assets by forces loyal to the war he for half the analysts say more than one $1000000000.00 worth of oil revenue has been lost since the blockade began one month ago. senator bunning saunders has nearly beaten people tickets in the new hampshire democratic primaries showing the divisions between the leftist and centrist wings of the party in the race to choose someone to go up against only trump in november i ding to the nature of the race i mean. surged to 3rd place offer a strong debate performance last week a once favorite joe biden slumped to 5th at eco he has more now from much to in new hampshire the he was expected to win and he did the all campaign is just feeding trough it is about transforming this country

the way it is about having the courage to take on wall street sure it's companies drug companies the fossil fuel industry the military industrial complex it was. not far behind former mayor of south bend indiana people who judge a relative newcomer. so many of you decided that a middle class mayor and a veteran from the industrial midwest was the right choice to take on this president not in spite of that experience but because these were not the expected frontrunners but with former vice president joe biden and senator elizabeth warren faltering new faces came to the front voters said that was a big reason so many were undecided up until the last minute some of the front runners i'm not sure i think their ideas are good but i'm not sure they have the

right path and they have the right ideas so i think that's why people are now leaning this way and kind of at this last minute like this is a strong possibility he may be coming in 3rd another unexpected candidate moves to the front of the pack minnesota senator a.v. club which. i may be coming and i will be donald trump. new hampshire is important for momentum attention and money raised clear tonight from the numbers that we are not going to win this race 2 of the lesser known candidates quit after this vote but all the top contender said they were staying in it and you know remain we're just. still have 98 percent of our delegate for our nomination up for grabs and americans in every part of the country are going to make their voices heard in exit polls democratic voters made clear their number one priority is finding someone who can beat donald trump but they're split on the best

way to do that from the far left or the center leaving new hampshire it's still not clear which camp will win in the end political hay out to 0 manchester new hampshire. and let's explore this further we can talk tonight because he's an assistant professor of political science at howard university joins us live now from washington d.c. what do you make where we're at saunders wins budi edged as well biden doesn't. mean isn't it. it absolutely is and i don't think anybody could have predicted that joe biden would have such a far fall but for sure joe biden is not looking like the contender he was several months ago the exit polls are the democrats number one priority is funny somebody to beat donald trump will democrat votes is coalesce behind whoever wins absolutely if i think the 'd energy keeps going the way it is i think people will

vote for wet paper napkin over donald trump so i think almost anybody could be put up could potentially win democratic voters but of course this is not just about appeal to the current democratic coalition that is exist that is the steadfast democrats who vote democratic all the time you also have to expand the pool because as we saw last time winning elections in the united states is not just about winning the popular vote it's about winning the electoral vote so they need to actually win in places with lots of electors as well because black votes is a core constituency for the democratic party relies on high turnout and then to win the elections and that vote is critical. absolutely and i think what what's important for biden is going to be south carolina as for the rest of these candidates because for both mayor people even senator sanders who had competed in south carolina before he didn't even win a quarter of the black vote in 2016 so this will be showing prove time in the same

thing for senator coburn shar she has not polled in double digits with black voters neither has so they've won contend races in very white very small states but can they win black voters i think the jury's still out i think black voters will coalesce around anybody that they think will be donald trump because he is a very real and existential threat to black survival however i think people want to actually have some options and it looks like because of the the way the race is shaking out so far that they will have some options and they will have candidates vying for the black vote and with a careless behind a man that we have mentioned in the book well if you believe latest polling it's quite possible even though michael bloomberg has not appeared on anybody's ticket as of yet he's going to appear in some later races and it's looking like for some black voters he is a reasonable 2nd choice i mean he's a centrist he was a republican before he became a democrat and i think when people think about who can beat donald trump he's also

a new yorker he's also a billionaire i think he has shown that he has the fight in the vigor and i think people will black voters will consider michael bloomberg even though they're much there's much to critique about his record while he was the mayor of new york city particularly around crime and his crime policy but i think people are thinking about who is going to be the better for us and i don't think anybody wants any black voter really want to see another 4 years of donald trump. to play for this. because we do appreciate your perspective on this thanks very much. thank you for having me. now the head of the roman catholic church pope francis has dismissed a proposal to ordain older married men into the priesthood bishops from latin america put forward the controversial plan to address the shortage of priests in the amazon it would have challenge the roman catholic tradition of priest being celibate but the pontiff says the solution to the shortage is to send missionaries

to the region john holmes has more now from rio de janeiro. the probably will be a bit of disappointment especially as it was latin american bishops that put forward this proposal last october i think important to clarify the proposal wasn't the priests who were already all day and should be allowed to then get married it was for all the sorts of married men have some standing in these communities be allowed to them the old thing to make up for a bit of a chronic shortage of priests in the midst of region this is a region that's composed of 9 countries really have parts and cells in the summers and region and it's estimated that at least 85 percent all villages in the amazon region on able to celebrate mass every week so there is a real sure to cheer and this was one of the ideas to try and get to grips with it now the pope's instead said that another solution could be sending missionaries to this area instead of going for the other option which was older married men be

being able to become priests and there will sort of a thaw in the move conservative part of the catholic church but this might be the thin end of the wedge that even the right now is very specific to the army as a region the worry was that it could spread and start to end the tradition of celibacy in the catholic church. so they are now and is there are accusations of interference u.s. justice department overall sentencing guidelines for a trumpet so as to talk to the president criticize plus. holding social media firms to account the u.k. government has plans to regulate the internet. they all spoke coming up to the n.b.a. hazelton number one pick these young women sometimes willing to get his high school yet toss to a long delayed start to his debut season. but

target turkish troops in deadly protests. palestinians have welcomed a united nations report on companies with business ties to leading israeli settlements in the occupied west bank the un says it has identified 112 business entities including the u.s. space program to company b. and b. israel has described it as shameful. a us senator bernie sanders has narrowly won the new hampshire primary but the field is still wide open to more states prepared to choose a democrat to run against donald trump in november. meanwhile trump has praised his attorney general william barr after one of his former white house advisers received a reduced prison sentence for prosecutors investigating roger stone close ally of trump have quit the case out of the u.s. justice department overruled them stone was sentenced to 7 to 9 years in prison for lying to congress struction and witness tampering the justice department said it

would reduce just hours after trump tweeted the proposed sentence was a miscarriage of justice for more on the story let's bring in our white house correspondent can we how can i think in all this is very extraordinary isn't it what's been the reaction. well the president continues to tweet about this but there has been outrage over the decision i'll get to the president's tweets in a moment essentially what we've got now is a growing movement in the form of titian tens of thousands of signatures and still more being added by the hour essentially saying that there needs to be an independent investigation of the justice department through its internal watchdog they say critics of the president's action in actions and also the reversal or the move to influence the sentence of roger stone they say shows that the attorney general has been compromised and as a result there needs to be an investigation to ensure that the attorney general

moving forward is not compromised in the future the allegation is that the president and the department of justice putting there are sort of crony and cronyism if you will above the law so those are the criticisms and allegations but the president for his part is very pleased with what has happened so far in fact he's tweeted even more early this morning here in washington congratulating the attorney general for his actions praising the outcome saying that this department of justice in this case has been tainted from the since the start and essentially he once again called it the swamp something that we heard a lot on the campaign trail so why is the president doing all of this well he's doing it because it plays well to his supporters he is running for reelection and in fact there is not much criticism coming from the right in the conservatives because this is exactly why they elected donald trump to drain the swamp if you will this is exactly what they wanted to see so

a lot of controversy and once again lot of division over this case or the preacher in washington can be held to thanks very much. to mexico it says the number of migrants awaiting the outcome of the u.s. immigration cases has fallen from 50000 to around 2500 migrant crossings that the shared border with the united states has dropped by 75 percent and since the start of last year the truck administration has been sending many central american cuban migrants to mexico that the policy has been a key element of trying to push to cope waves of migrants seeking asylum in the united kingdom is to hold social media platforms accountable for harmful content in order to better protect online users this move comes a year after was brought forward by m.p.'s who've expressed concern over the internet being a possible tool for self harm amongst young people u.k. media watch talk of commons expected to be given more power by the government to

ensure internet safety i thank my right my own noble friend for raising that point and as we deliver gigabit broadband grid replanted this country including the 2 people have said. mr speaker we will also ensure that the u.k. is the safest place to be online let's take this up with your challenge our correspondent live for us in london and rory what are the problems that the u.k. government is trying to deal with here. well i think it's long been recognized that particularly for young people the internet can sometimes be a dangerous place to spend time that you could fall victim to cyber bullies or even sexual predators grooming young people for real life sexual abuse it can be a place where the government says that terrorists hangouts and swap information and plot 6 cetera that is perhaps

a kind of digital wild west under regulated where trust is being placed in the big companies to be their own a share of something they're not particularly good at and so we just heard from boris johnson there saying that he wants to make the u.k. the safest place in the world to be online at the same time as safeguarding the rights of free speech the rights to a free press and making the regulator refrain work adaptable for future threats to the u.k. media watchdogs to be given more power what would actually do with that. well some of this is being sketched out so far but a lot of this information is still to come in and basically what often would be tarnished with is is looking after 2 areas of online content particularly in the social media sphere so one of those is is illegal content which is a bit more simple you can just get the companies to take that content down when it

comes to what's cool harmful content well things are a bit more vague and off would likely be charged with requiring these big social media giants to clearly states to users what the terms often are for acceptable content and acceptable behavior and if that content of behavior code is violated then we'll save these companies would you have to do something about that but it's unclear at the moment what teeth of com are actually going to be given to make sure that this happens rather than something that you'd imagine would have quite a lot of public support but is it actually going to happen if it is when with it. well that the suggestions that the government has come up with have been the result of a norm going consultation period where they've been speaking to lots of people and getting lots of different views and that this is the early stage of the results of that consultation period they are giving an idea about what ready they are going to

be doing next but we will see more information about the exact timeframe for this and those. details that i mentioned that often will be given to regulate online activity in the spring so that's in in a month or 2 use time ari thanks very much challenge there in london. a company that sold generating machines to more than 100 countries was secretly owned by u.s. intelligence for decades according to the washington post the cia and germany's spy agency a rigged swiss firm crypto agee's devices to eavesdrop on clients iran saudi arabia and even the vatican and secret correspondents read and possibly shed as many as 6 countries was dissolved back in 2018 well earlier my colleague 40 but to both spoke to robert pre-charge he's director of the cyber security expert which is a firm that advises institutions across europe and she began by asking him just how

extensive this intelligence gathering was. it's very hard to say because but the truth of these kind of operations never comes to light but a certain extremely successful and i'm sure was extremely valuable long it was running. a. very impressive operation that started during the days of the cold war and it seems to me of late today in particular the secret operations have become much harder to keep secrets in a during the cold war discipline was perhaps a bit stronger and it predated the days of into the internet and wiki leaks and things like that. so i'm not not surprised that either an operation like baseballs or was kept secret for so long because not that many people actually knew about it that way outside of the media talked to the community found out had the story kl. interest and capability to develop cryptography devices and he fled to the us before that well during the 2nd world war they became extremely significant not

least because they were getting from to get assistance from the cia but they were very important cryptographic hard manufacturing clients included a number of foreign governments including iran nuclear rivals india and pakistan and even the vatican what i find surprising is that so many of these countries would be willing to open up their systems to one single company how do you think they were able to convince so many countries to go with them. honestly i mean i'm guessing that probably much of that but. this sounds sensible from the company itself so i'm guessing they just had good sales people and they're probably both an average competition of the time and because you know that has had a good pedigree that the products every use had a good pedigree and you know many decades by the time the cold will in this market sector and also i'm guessing the factory was the swiss company resorts and being neutral as you've already sent and bought it some some cretins. a pakistani court

opposition but at the same time they acknowledge that some progress in those areas has been made and they said they are committed to the ongoing economic and social development of this country so clearly they were concerned that a full withdrawal of this agreement could have a major impact on the economy of cambodia in particular the garment sector which is really the backbone of the economy here employing around 800000 people so under these new mages some footwear and garments are targeted but not all from the cambodian government side they may well see this as a partial victory we've certainly seen a lot of public defiance from the government in the lead up to this announcement in fact on tuesday the day before the announcement the prime minister one since it is said that they would not bow to foreign demands among those demands from the e.u. that the banned opposition party is reinstated and its leader has his treason case against him dropped will so there is no sign of those things happening.

and again now a recent report by the wild wildlife fund says threats to nature can lead to economic losses it's edging countries to take action against the hobble effects of climate change natural disasters that lead to coastal erosion on the. and wildlife can end up costing hundreds of billions of dollars over the next that he is studies says these risks could be escalated by an increase in the use of fossil fuels or if there's an expansion in agriculture and development it goes on to say the united kingdom could be one of the worst hit countries in the united states and japan so now from karen ellis susie director of sustainable economy at the world wildlife fund and she explains the rate at which these losses are occurring. we're

destroying nature incredibly fast globally we're destroying the area of a size of a football pitch of forest every 2 seconds so what we wanted to do with this report was to look at the economic costs of that destruction so we used for the 1st time a new methodology that combines analysis of how nature delivers benefits to the economy with a global economic trade model that looks at how economies sell goods to each other to look at how those nature losses will affect different countries in the world and it showed that overall we stand to lose at least 10 trillion dollars of global g.d.p. by 2050 so that the hardest hit countries in terms of percent of g.d.p. are of the poorest countries so a country like madagascar for example stands to lose 4 percent of g.d.p. per year by 2050 which is massive for for

a country like madagascar would probably wipe out their growth prospects so yeah the poorest countries are the hardest hit but richer countries are the hardest hit in terms of absolute volumes of g.d.p. the u.s. japan and the u.k. other top 3 countries to be hit and for them the risks are more related to coast on ability increased coast of on ability as a result of sea level rise but also as we've destroyed some of our natural capital things like sea grasses and mangroves and coral reefs that protect the coasts from storm surges and flooding so as a result of this nature loss they stand to lose a huge amount going forward. or let's get the latest now from the world of sport has peter because you so much the chimes grown pretty has been postponed because of the corona virus outbreak the race had been should yield for april 19th in shanghai but is no good use of a replacement thing joins a long list of sporting events to have been cancelled because of the virus which has killed over 1100 people nearly all of them in mainland china last if one race
