this and the story of jerusalem through the eyes of its own people. occupation discrimination injustice this is in the 21st century jerusalem a rock and a hard place on al-jazeera. this is al-jazeera. dan this is the news out live from coming up in the next 60 minutes more than 33000000 people in the u.s. have signed up for unemployment benefits and downs were introduced 7 weeks ago. black people in the u.k. 4 times more likely to die from coronavirus new research also shows other ethnic minorities are at greater risk. the u.n.

raises a number of russian mercenaries helping libyan warlords in the fight against the internationally recognized government. for war on drugs has failed a global team of experts calls time on policies it says are fueling organized crime . i'm joined again with sports and it's confirmed germany's beyond just legal will restart next saturday becoming the 1st european football league to resume amid the current virus pandemic we'll be live in berlin. where we begin in the united states where figures just released show another $3200000.00 people have filed for unemployment benefits keeping a prolonged track to be the worst month on record for job losses well that means around 33000000 people have registered as unemployed in 7 weeks economists think

economic growth in the u.s. could plummet by. 30 percent in the 2nd quarter in europe the bank of england expects the u.k.'s economic production to shrink by 14 percent this year and unemployment to rise to 8 percent the european union's been warned to brace for its worst ever recession with the economy tipped to slump by 7.4 percent of the years of growth but there are signs of recovery in china exports rose for the 1st time this year by 3 and a half percent after many factories reopened our white house correspondent kimberly how he joins us now from washington d.c. so no letting up in those weekly figures coming in kimberly. no and this number is expected to climb but what we're seeing now in terms of the accumulation of claims filed is that really we are at now great depression

levels and it's hitting in every sector of the u.s. economy initially it was some of the sort of immediate industries such as restaurants and the tourism industry but now we're seeing this sort of secondary effect even in terms of some governments that realize that these offices where many people are going to work who are now going to be closed for some time and i think what's distinct here when we're talking about historical events such as the great depression is what makes this different is the swiftness in which these jobs were lost the fact that just 8 weeks ago what we were seeing in the united states was a 50 year low in terms of the unemployment rate just 3.5 percent now of course we're in double digits and that number is expected to climb so this is something that the u.s. president is is concerned about he says repeatedly but this is also why many fear he is rushing to reopen this u.s. economy given the fact that he had hoped in this would bring him sort of

a swift reelection in november because of the historically low unemployment now historically 'd high we're talking about opening up the economy can really where is the c.d.c. heading when it comes to those guidelines on easing the long. yeah this is a developing story that is coming out at this hour what we know is that of course the crowbars taskforce many weeks ago back in mid april released guidelines for reopening the country said it would not extend the stay at home orders in the united states but what we're learning now is that the centers for disease control or c.d.c. a well respected body that americans look to for reliable and unbiased health advice put out its own guidelines for reopening the country and for example how mass transit would operate how local restaurants and daycares would operate what we are learning is that the trumpet administration completely shelved that report and

this is certainly concerning to many americans because the fear is that public health advice is now being politicized now al-jazeera reached out to the white house for comment on this white house official tells us that that c.d.c. guideline was overly prescriptive and broad and that's why they disregarded that advice going instead with their own they say that the reopening of a country cannot be one size fits all which they're alleging that the c.d.c. guidelines were the white house official telling al-jazeera that what you recommend for new york city example is not what you could also recommend for a more rural state so the white house pushing back on this reporting but at the same time this is a headline that will make many americans uncomfortable thanks so much kimberly how . faced with those soaring unemployment figures this year's university graduates are coming into the worst jobs market in this century many have launched today that

they're leaving their courses with little hope of a successful start to their careers rob reynolds reports. for the class of 2020 there will be no caps and gowns no proud march to accept diplomas no celebration after years of study and hard work it's a distressing time for grads like james werner who attended vassar college in new york but is now with his parents in los angeles in terms of like you know graduating school and going into the workforce it's such a big change in general and kind of having the you know dark cloud of this pandemic over that adds even more stress and intensity to that process back home in gorham maine after american university in washington closed its doors may have terri says she feels like she's in limbo i've been trying to take everything one day at a time to preserve my mental health for both of them and for millions of graduates

in the u.s. and around the world job prospects are slim i've done some searching i mean doesn't have a lot of economic opportunities other than the tourist industry so that's entirely shot at the moment are you going to hire the kid who's like fresh out of school are you going to hire someone who's been on a desk or flight 5 years. and i don't know i just it makes me feel old it's it's tough young adults leaving college today could face a prolonged period of unemployment for many members of the class of 2020 the economic fallout could linger for years decades or even longer research shows that even if and when the economy picks up again the graduates of today may struggle but we know from must be sessions that they are not going to. say that it will or won't . be going to go so you see. income

losses also said that maybe. we've seen that in kind of us to says well they really are it. might not be. despite these negatives workforce experts advise new graduates to remain optimistic no one thinks it's going to be. new career. you know. that advice can be hard for anxious young people to follow i want to go start my life i'm like really ready to do that and it's just like painful having to just sit for now the class of 2020 can only wait and hope for the best rob reynolds al-jazeera los angeles well as the u.s. economy falters there are signs of recovery in china where the current virus originated it's 4 months since the outbreak began and business is looking up

katrina u. is in beijing with more. there is some real recovery in chinese trade and this is really a surprise to many analysts they were predicting up to an 11 percent drop and some people are tribute ing this to the fact that perhaps during april there was an increase in exports of p.p.t. or protective medical gear such as masks and respirators also one other analysts are speculating that's because there was a backlog that needed to be filled in terms of export orders or all customers were front loading orders ahead of what they expected to be a bad pandemic year and also the other thing is that paps this concern about demands dropping maybe that's yet to hit china's exports maybe with still maybe the worst is still yet to come that's also a possibility what we did see though was a fall in imports they fell by 14.2 percent compared to march and that's

a 10.2 percent drop year on year and that was worse than what analysts expected partridge peregrine is an international economist and head of research and market these are is it's too early to say whether there's any sort of economic recovery in china right now. i think we can tax the chinese export numbers where they have to pinch of salt i think it's very much down to the fact that china was largely shop for 3rd brand and now so you have as we said a chance but what we're saying is very clear we just look at all the status from across the world look at germany into soldiers in. the sense that going forward. see china is that for fall again so i also not only that when we look at the actual level of consumer activity in china this so far far below what it was previous but the recession itself when you go surprisingly the economy sort of gone off a cliff and it seems to be stabilizing at very low levels now and we start as

lockdowns these we should say demand rise slowly the other side of things is as far as the virus concerns everyone is taking tiptoeing basically into. getting back to activity but we know from the whole social distance saying and the behaviors going forward that people talk about a new normal we don't call it that we call it the new abnormal and what we're saying is that here just destruction on both demand and supply and a permanent hit to consumer confidence this will this will people will become more cautionary they save more which in turn restrains the recovery companies cut back on investment that also restrains the recovery and the reality is we're going to see these very very sharp rise to get us employment data tomorrow the official unemployment numbers we will see unemployment come back down but it's good it took us 10 years in the u.s. for unemployment to to get back to where it was in 2007 new data from the u.k.

and shown that people from black asian and other ethnic minority backgrounds are more likely to die from covert 19 than white people figures released by the office of national statistics show black men and women are 4 times more likely to die after being diagnosed with covert 19 than those who are white the risk of death is also significantly higher for men and women bangladeshis pakistanis or indian origin. of the report says such people have been disproportionately affected by underlying health conditions and economic disadvantages show them hussein is a british government adviser and board member of the bradford foundation trustee joins us by skype from bradford in the united kingdom good to have you with us one thing which is kind of interesting about this report of oh it does say that some of these ethnic groups you know they suffer from disadvantaged circumstances it says that even after taking that into account there is still this parity in the death

rate why. some you thank you for having is here absolutely i mean this is something that has been reported previously and at long last in everyone is an ingredient that minority communities are disproportionately affected. one of the reasons why is we know that in the n.h.s. in the u.k. for example around one 3rd of the frontline start from bomb communities we also know that i present each of them communities working chalk rolls up customer facing and this has a high level of interaction and brings about the risks and of course you've already mentioned the social economic disadvantage the previous esteeming health conditions the multigenerational households. i guess i mean when you combine all these together it really is a recipe for disaster. should be true mores also then put into place

you know when nora he areas or what's the solution do you think. well i mean we known for many years here across the u.k. particularly in the. communities black minority ethnic communities the inner city areas are highly congested and the the properties and the health inequalities the education of qualities 'd there's many such factors that bring us to a situation across the u.k. 'd that further investment needs to be made by the government now we know that the government has announced an investigation into health inequalities it's very important that they empower local communities to be able to deliver change for themselves the very best help in finding a vaccine especially the part of this problem might have something in there with genetics i mean this nervously ongoing research and it's important that we also

learn from what's going on in other parts of the world. you know i know from the research that is going on it's not a quick process to get to a vaccine however the important thing that we must look at is 'd how can we show that going forward these types of inequalities are addressed and we ensure that those that are from these smaller communities are part of that research to try to investigate and and ensure that you know there's a very real risk that we could have a 2nd round as been mentioned previously. and significant investment needs to go in to find a vaccine awfully high thank you very much for your thoughts on that last time. 3 more still ahead on the news hour including ranks 3rd choice for prime minister takes charge after months of wrangling and a growing financial crisis plus. an inside look at. the

day when the rubbish collection is one of the most essential jobs and now one of the most dangerous. and in sports spain's top football stars are tested for coronavirus in an effort to get them back on the pitch. in israel the formation of a unity government between former political rivals benny gantz benyamin netanyahu and benny gantz has been approved by parliament. and some israelis are angry about netanyahu forming a government while still under indictment for corruption the coalition government will assume office after the president approves that in the who is the prime minister so happening after months of political deadlock and 3 inconclusive elections in less than a year how to force it joins us live from west jerusalem with some reaction to that

so does it look like the road is finally open to netanyahu now to form the next government. very much so and it's pretty extraordinary when you think of the fact that he hasn't been able to win any of those 3 elections and he is still under indictment in 3 separate corruption cases that trial starts this month may the 24th and yet he's not only survived but he has prevailed he's going to be in charge for the 1st 18 months of this government what he needed for that to happen as well as obviously the decision by his former rival to join into a unity government with him was the approval of the high court. which rejected various petitions against both netanyahu own legal status crediting him from leading a new government and also legal questions about the very nature of this unity government deal it gave that approval last night and he required pretty fundamental changes to israeli law in order to get this deal through because neither he nor

benny gantz really fully trusts each other and so they've come up with this kind of jewel headed government one man will be prime minister the other will maintain the status as alternate prime minister while the while his rival slash partner is in charge so benjamin netanyahu will go for the 1st 18 months benny gantz for the next 18 months as the option of a 4th year of power sharing after that as well and so there were fundamental changes to israel's basic rules required to be passed they were passed this morning now the m.k. is the members of the knesset have to do is give the president approval of a majority of them the netanyahu to form a government was this they've an exaggeration plants do they go into top game now. well that is the message that's been coming from benjamin netanyahu he in his dealings on the negotiations for this government he won a pretty important victory against gantz who is much more cautious and more

concerned at least publicly about the impact of annexation on israel in terms of regional stability and partnerships with of the countries but he has relinquished any hope he had of a veto over that so his party is talking about trying to slow the progress from within but netanyahu if he wants to and if he gets approval from the united states he can under the terms of the deal to press forward with an extension of nearly a 3rd of the occupied west bank any time from july the 1st on what's now there are some questions over whether netanyahu really wants to stir things up to the extent that he would do so also whether the united states wants to see the kind of fallout that there would be with its regional allies as well but the message coming from both governments publicly is from netanyahu that he wants to do it and from the u.s. ambassador here in israel and also with the prospects of a visit from the secretary of state might pompei o to jerusalem next week the signals are lining up that the u.s.

is at least publicly standing ready to approve if he wants to go ahead all right thanks so much how a force of that libya now and links between all of that if i have to and the kremlin the united nations says around a 1000 russian mercenaries there in libya they're working for the wagner group a mercenary operation with close ties to the government we're very concerned and the intervention. foreign citizens in libya is something the secretary general is spoken out about publicly it is something of concern it is of no help to the people of libya who are who aren't directly of political reconciliation so peace can return to their country. diplomatic outed james bays has more from the un. has spoken to a number of security council members who've confirmed what's in the report we've known for a long time there are russian mercenaries operating in libya we didn't perhaps know

the scale of the operations of the russian company the wagon the group it has about a 1000 operatives it's believed in the country including about 40 snipers who are on the front lines trying to tilt the battles in favor of general haftar the 57 page report gives pictures of some of those operatives and pictures of some of their weapons it also reveals for the 1st time that general have to is getting support from fighters that have come in from syria we've known for a long time that turkey has been sending syrian fighters to support the government a government of national accord but it seems that syrian fighters have been coming in on the other side to support general have to we believe as many as 2000 fighters who are on contracts of $800.00 a month for 3 months we believe to try and help general have to in his fight various countries support opposing sides in libya's conflict take

a look at it the government of national accord is based in tripoli and it's led by prime minister face a sort of right his administration is backed by the u.n. with diplomatic support from qatar italy and other western nations turkey recently sent military support the war will claim to have those power bases in the government of tobruk in the east he supported by saudi arabia the u.a.e. russia and egypt france denies providing military support alexei kovalev nick of is a middle east expert at the russian international affairs council joins us by skype from moscow good to have you with us what are moscow's goals in libya. well the 1st place russia is that officially tries to present or market itself as a broker in this conflict and basically it official morse credits line is that it doesn't support it one side or another it maintains open and close

relations with all parties well the conflicts. and also it's arrived in also with militants from misrata and also we've tried from our we via which makes it to be unique in the way a unit act which can talk with all parties to the conflicts of course the wagner group has been seen as a front for the russian government to conduct military operations without taking responsibility for them why do you think russia is approaching that kind of policy in libya as opposed to more covert military presence as they have going on in syria for example. well the moscow fischler denies any military presence on the ground in libya have been. but a lot of reports on

a. presence it's hard to deny that it's it is there but it's the biggest question now is the scale of its presence so. uses this tactics because probably it it is easier to have a private military growth operating on the ground and it's not the 1st and now russia is not the 1st stage was started to do that this practice is widely used by other western states that we know that also. got this from noted states france also active in the in the v.a. and also in the in other conflicts round it will so probably that russia doesn't benefit or will hear and uses. its new target practice and also i should indicate that probably it shouldn't be seen as necessarily they're regulated connected with it and in private with the companies russian private

minutes of companies with the government because for example in syria they were cases where the frictions between the contract is on the ground and the official russian military tensions were growing and that because knox necessarily always be is just so private who is very competent on the ground can science with the official interests so that might lead to certain friction is clashes of interests and unnecessary risks on i thank you so much for giving us to on that analysis on that and i think lemonick off then. iraq has a new prime minister and a new government following months of deadlock and arguments within rival parties former intelligence chief most offered government faces formidable problems including solving iraq's economic crisis worsened by the coronavirus emergency so

on a fault in reports from baghdad after almost 6 months of political wrangling iraq finally has a new government on thursday former intelligence chief most of the me the 3rd person to be nominated for prime minister this year secured parliament seal of approval 15 ministers from his 22 member cabinet were also passed while momently we're going through a critical phase in our history iraq is facing so many challenges in our security economy health care and even socially but it is not bigger than our determination to stand up to these challenges. to earn the vote of confidence they may had to appease major political parties by letting them pick ministers in his cabinet an informal get deeply entrenched power sharing system known as portion meant. he had 10 percent of freedom to choose his cabinet and 90 percent were determined by the parties and blocs names of ministers were swapped until right before the vote

amid last minute backroom negotiations some parties which didn't secure ministries including the state of law alliance and ayad alawi is national coalition boycotted the vote. this is a strange approach and it's a dangerous precedent in the iraqi political scene the candidates of his cabinet that's 12 ministers represented to the shia parties and they gave their point of view but it was not shared with the rest of the political parties it's as if the she was of the guardians of the political process. replaced the who resigned in the vendor amid widespread anti-government demonstrations protesters had demanded an overhaul of the political system that would allow them to elect the head of state directly and do away with the apportionment system seen as a conduit for corruption and political patronage but the protests have largely died

down over the past months and with them the pressure for systemic change the few demonstrators who remain in tahrir square rejected me. any government that is formed inside parliament without the opinions of protesters will be rejected but them instead bring those to account who are killing kidnapping and arresting us on a daily basis comes to power as iraq faces an unprecedented fiscal crisis a resurgence of eisel the coronavirus pandemic and us iran tensions on its soil government has put forth and the government program but it remains to be seen whether he'll have the power to exit q did the government. formation process has shown that he remains beholden to the same political powers that iraqis blame for the current crisis to many his appointment signals the preservation of the status quo but in the 1st step on the road towards change that they have demanded some wonderful teen al-jazeera but that and at least 10 people including

a child have been killed in a gas leak in southern india more than 200 others have been taken to hospital people living in nearby villages are being moved to safer places it happened at a factory producing plastics in the city of which shark apart and i am in under a professional. oh it's time to bring in a little bit of sunshine that's why you're here everything right yeah that's right sorry your area got lots of sunshine for a little bit of everything if the trees you know we've had some wintry showers for severe storms so be some sunshine as well you can see last week clear skies there across the heart of north america see this little clutch of storms just offshore there just around new york pulling away into new england and then the next weather system that's piling across the mountain states and that's going to continue just driving as well little further research as we go on for the next 24 hours or so to the north of this blue line that that blue line that sat cold front to the north of that that's their employees we have cold air tucking in that's going to sink

further south was out of canada and we've got this red line here our warm fronts yet and the warm air just pulling up from the gulf of mexico cold enough at the moment in winnipeg minus 3 celsius cold enough for frost cold enough in d.c. actually calmer for ground frost here with a temperature of around 4 celsius at the moment as we go on through the remainder of today we will see that system pulling away from new england brighter skies coming back in with that sunshine little bit of rain the snow diving down across the plains into the central plains and as we go on through friday that will pair pop some very severe storms certainly on the cards here possibly with some tornadoes some very heavy rain that's likely and that'll feed its way right across the appalachians and push further eastward as we go on into or sunday dry abroad to weather coming in behind possibly one or 2 wintry flurries further north and then sunshine towards the west bank and still ahead of al jazeera we look at the challenge of exposing false information about so called cures for corona virus in

based global commission on drug policy says criminalizing illegal drug users and petty offenders is lead to overcrowded prisons and young people in poor communities suffering disproportionately the commission says governments should instead focus on combating the most dangerous and profitable crime gangs drug traffickers are often linked to other crimes such as p. . people trafficking money laundering and arms smuggling now they also use online marketplaces encrypted currencies for their transactions or the commission says regulating the multi-billion dollar illegal drug trade will make all the noise criminals less powerful earlier we spoke with former new zealand prime minister helen clark who is also involved with the global commission on drug policy she says most tactics used by governments actually end up helping criminal networks. the prohibition asst approach has really been a gift to organized crime because it's given

a huge market is to make something like $650.00 plus $1000000000.00 market a year pivot drugs so the view of the global commission on drug policies you could actually disrupt there by states taking on the responsible regulation of drugs and getting supply all criminal hands then you can focus on what's really important and that is organized crime so with that general extortion for money laundering people and guns trafficking and so on that's what the lower more attention should be on not on the simple member of the community who is a person using drugs the best incentive often is an economic one there are plenty of arguments based on human rights for not treating people who use drugs the way they're treated at the moment in the criminal laws regime but the reality is it's also costing a lot of money for no good purpose to pursue the people who use and persist drugs

to lock them up to keep them in jails for a very very long time and then few people ever come out of jail or a better person fecht giles recruiting stations for organized crime so the way we're dealing with these issues at the moment is not productive it's expensive and rather damaging to people's health and will be confirmed cases of coronavirus a slowly rising in africa health experts warn efforts to contain the virus are being undermined by misinformation clued in from some african leaders catherine sawyer reports from kenya's capital. victor evers job as a journalist for the facts checking agency is to verify information on the internet and examine the truth to what government and political leaders are saying he especially needs to be more diligent during the coronavirus pandemic never has just analyzed the social media video of the governor of kenya's capital nairobi mike's

on call who recently included potholes of a brand of cognac in food relief packs and gave these explanations that is chemistry which was somebody. does us troops and it kills the person because the waiter says it's a symptom and it comes as the disease continues to spread across the continent so does misinformation about it a lot of false information a lot of misinformation and disinformation play on your emotions and when people are emotional the come to be become be critical of this would not be the right thing some in uganda president yoweri with 70 reason he endorsed the production of a sanitizing spray that a medical investors said could cure the disease but i guess because president and roger alina also launched the distribution of a drink he said calicivirus and kenya some people are using home remedies they

swear will protect them from getting sick while health organization has said there's no proven cure or vaccine you give up on giving time for everybody many people are now relying more on online content for their coronavirus some of those we talked to say they are overwhelmed by all the information on fossil media either way very lying on 4 called who are at the peak their feet online and most of the often formation has been shared millions of times across the continent. for enochian use a volunteer with the kenyan red cross she distributes sanitizers soap and masks on the streets of. and office accurate information as opposed to the misinformation on line other by telling us that they're drinking a lot so it means they cannot contact the vedas and people believe that. 1000 is not for africa and that thing that is in fact this morning someone quoted me and he

told me government is just for each people he doesn't believe in that also. she says the only way to counter the online misinformation is doing what she is doing talking to people and questions and trying to calm their fears catherine soy al jazeera arabic kenya. health care workers have been applauded for their sacrifices during the pandemic but other unsung heroes who also risk their lives of national recognition or support our latin america is alysia newman joins sanitation workers in chile on shifts in the capital. they make their living by doing the dirty work at all said he'll fancy school and roberto are a team from dawn to early morning they pick up the rubbish from homes to hospitals in this working class and taboo neighborhood. residents that are coming back to my daniel has been doing this for 33 years. someone has to do it we don't have

advanced education so we have to do this but i'm not sorry on the contrary it's a noble job. maybe so but it's hazardous. this is dangerous because of the dogs people leave sharp objects in the bags even syringes we pick up with their hands and listen fictions there's no sugar coating this is one of the least hygenic and little smelly jobs that one can have and it's now become one of the most dangerous because these men have no idea if the rubbish that they're handling over and over again belongs to the people who are window cracked the code when. i'm told. francisco this is now afraid to go home for the iraq war. because of the family they say this far is get stuck to the bags under the handles on the truck. chillies more than 16000 sanitation employees work with

staving off relegation as i say other important dobby matches that's the thing they want that back but then there's equally a lot of people in this country who look at how serious the pandemic is and they really wonder whether now is really the right time to be playing elite sports again when people are still dying under the people dying many hundreds of people being infected they wonder whether now is the right time but what's clear is that the part the politicians and the sports administrators of all talk to each other and work that they think this is the right thing to do they want the bundesliga back up and running they want it to complete by the end of june all right dominic kane there for us in berlin thank you. germany's decision is having a knock on effect in france where the season has already been scrapped parasangs a man with a champions well ambien and to lose were relegated finished 7th which means that leon's club president john michel less is calling for the decision to be referred
