government in actually in south yemen the council says strong leadership is needed to combat the global coronavirus panda. amec leadership it says the government is lacking that's why the f.c.c. is right now compelled to say to take action to their own ends while still calling for a cease fire calling for deescalation in all fronts we want things to go smoothly or what things we want to be able to deliver aid services are going to be able to battle this. but the government warns the move could have catastrophic consequences describing it as a resumption of an armed insurgency i it's yet another complicating factor in yemen spy vs civil war which is being mocked by shifting sometimes shadowy allegiances to the south and say protests are backed by the united arab emirates and have been nominal allies of the saudi immorality coalition and their war against the who thinks it was last year the saw the movement turned on the coalition backed

government seizing aden and fighting that lasted for days. the government says the separatist action is a rejection of a power sharing deal brokered to end last year's unrest which saudi arabia hailed as a step towards a wider political solution to the war was support on the ground is also in question the sabers as movement goes back fabio on to the current conflict those in the south yemen's unification and 1998 favored the north and led to falling living standards. there are thought to be at least 25 regional separatist groups critics say control shouldn't be taken by force but actions within yemen and not in 2 or 3 but all the. regions already have and i think this is like a premature station that doesn't. support in other areas of

the i'm going to speculate and other places so basically we are playing with fire and i know you know him but come back. the 7 transitional council says it continues to support the nationwide cease fire which is just being extended by a month a declaration of autonomy and a state of emergency adds to the uncertainty for yemenis who believe he suffered years of hunger and war and except ryan al-jazeera. china is trumpeting another milestone in this battle with coronavirus all patients have now been discharged from hospital and that's the original epicenter of the pandemic health officials also say they've now gone and 11th straight day with no new deaths in china with one report of more than half of the country's total cases and nearly 85 percent of the national death toll city residents are still being tested regularly despite a relaxation of rules let's go straight to sarah clarke who joins us from hong kong monitoring the situation in china sara what's the latest.

well certainly it is a milestone coming out of china on sunday simply because there what they're reporting no new coronavirus cases in the hospitals we've seen a number of medical facilities shut down over recent months of course this is the epicenter of the initial corona virus outbreak you might recall in the early days are late january early february had some days we had thousands of cases being reported at of hand and then of course the city of 11000000 people went into lockdown for almost 3 months and those 11000000 people were put under strict pointing rules and see i need that the lockdown was lifted only the last couple of weeks and that was as a result of the number of cases falling as you mentioned the city of we had a cabinet for 84 percent of china's national total and however in the rest of china we're still seeing a number of other cases we're looking at the north of the country where we've got the province of helen jang and this particular province and borders russia and on sunday we had 11 cases reported in china and 5 of those cases are in that particular province and this is where china is now focusing on the new battleground

to try to stem the increasing number of cases coming in from russia into china from russia into china and as a result of that put some of those cities into a strict quarantine lockdown is metric right of ice testing on those people coming from russia into china as a result of certain our 1000 kilometers to the south of us so you're poor seeing a surge in cases. we've certainly had a huge spike in the number of cases in singapore over the last week on sunday we had 931 cases reported by the government that's up from 618 and the focus now is on these domestic market workers who are living in these crammed to dormitories and this is where a simple has deployed a number of medical teams to try and test and ramp up the treatment of these people living in this particular area 80 percent of same holds cases are actually these migrant workers and as a result a simple has had to extend its lock down now until june and it's ramping up the whole scenario with it they've got the government employees going to these particular regions but certainly singapore now has the highest number of infections

across asia or assert thanks very much it is her reporting there from hong kong the situation in asia. well life is starting to return to normal in south korea catholics attending mass for the 1st time since what the measures were introduced at the start of the pandemic it has more from seoul on precautions being taken. it's nearly 2 months since the catholic church and other churches here in south korea decided it was simply too risky to hold normal services instead they're holding masses on line and it's only now all of these weeks on the catholic church has decided it is safe to reopen its churches but only under the strictest of precautions we're at the main cathedral in seoul can only have a congregation of up to a 1000 but only a quarter of that number of being allowed in for 'd each mass and you know order to do so you have to turn up here early go to this building where you get

a number and your contact details your identity is recorded at all so that if there is a case of infection then every member of that congregation can be traced it's all part of this contact tracing that the south koreans are now so expert at then you have to line up a 2nd time outside the cathedral itself obviously keeping a distance from the people in front of you and behind you and as you go into the cathedral taking the usual precautions like hand sanitizer making sure you have a mask and then there are special precautions in place for example during the taking of communion all intended to reduce the risk of infection being passed on to an absolute minimum people we have been as talking to say yes it is a slightly troublesome to go through these measures which are in place at churches this sunday throughout south korea but they are nonetheless thankful that they can once more return to their churches. i'm a bit concerned but it feels we're getting back to normal to such an extent normal

. that of course i feel grateful and moved at be back in church it made me realise that the took it for granted. and that's wrong. this is being seen as a further sign of life returning to something like normal once more and indeed the figures seem to bear out the fact that the worst seems to be behind south korea with only a few new cases being detected every day and most of those coming from outside the concern for the authorities now though is that a sense of complacency or fatigue sets in allowing a resurgence which nobody here wants to see but one of the country's worst affected by coronaviruses just let children start enjoying the great outdoors again for the 1st time in more than a month but the move for spain 6300000 youngsters aged under 14 comes with conditions it's only for an hour and they must be accompanied by an adult and they can go no further than one kilometer spain has the 2nd most number of cases of the
