a jet ski in the capital home the day the number of deaths across 10000 let's begin in hong kong where protesters have gathered in shopping malls to receive the month's event to beijing demonstrations as a threat of coronavirus easiest groups of 8 were expected to march meeting social distancing guidelines but large crowds showed up many calling for independence for home call dozens of police officers dressed in riot gear dispersive demonstrators protest against beijing's influence in hong kong have been taking place for more than a year to make a pot and has more on whether the protesters met social distancing guidelines. at the beginning they were trying but eventually they made their way into these shopping malls and gathered in groups and as you can see here behind me on the railings people just gather around them and start chanting slogans against the police against governments and for more democracy and universal suffrage but as soon as right police come they all dispersed very quickly what's making it very

difficult for police to discern who is a protester and who is just a regular shopper this is one of the main shopping malls in the city is the fact that everyone in hong kong is wearing a face mask due to the government's advice to help fight the corona virus outbreak so protesters easily mingle in which shoppers and so while the other issue here also i must say is the fact that protesters are also being fined under the social distancing measures there is quite a complicated situation where police can just pretty much throw perhaps a group like this more than 8 people a fine of $250.00 u.s. dollars each and these protesters are are the same young people that we saw last year in the big movement and many of them are young they are students and they cannot afford these fines but they're somehow trying to get around the so this is hong kong trying to start its protest movement in an era of social distancing. well

people are also gathering in iraq's capital for another day of anti-government protests there since a change in leadership last week the former intelligence chief. has been sworn in as the new prime minister his predecessor bill maher he was forced from office by months of often violent and government demonstrations the protesters are calling for better living conditions and the whole of the political system so many fulton is where the protest is it she says a few 100 people have joined the demonstration even though the weather is hot and many fasting. it's important to face it this is the most significant gathering since the imposition of the curfew to stem the spread of the coronavirus on march 17th since then we have seen tahrir square virtually empty with a few 1000 people remaining in the pens that have been set up here so today's gathering is quite significant it comes just days after the formation of the new government the people who have come here say that they still have demand for the go well beyond the appointment of a new prime minister day still demand

a complete overhaul of the political system they say that the political parties that are responsible for the failures of the past governments are still controlling parliament with them even though the me has made quite a few concessions last night it is not quite enough and they're saying that they will try to mobilize the protest again to see actual results on the ground the announcements were quite old for his 1st cabinet meeting and it was clear to most of all calumny was wasting no time to try to mend the rift between the demonstrators and the government he promised to release protesters who have been detained since the beginning of the protest enough and very importantly he also made a very important decision to reinstate general of the. head of the counterterrorism service let's remember that his the commissioning last year was one of the main triggers for the protest movement because people looked at him as a war hero who had made great contributions towards the fight against isis and his the commissioning was seen as just one of the manifestation of an incompetent and

corrupt government. where as we heard earlier a new current virus outbreak in seoul going to nightclubs south korea's president calling for calm but he's also warning of a 2nd wave of infections makes the ship has more now from seoul. south korea's response to the corona virus has been widely held up as an example to other countries at one time it faced the 2nd worst outbreak in the world after china but quickly brought it under control by encouraging people and companies to voluntarily social distance while conducting mass testing and contact tracing president moon use this national address to promise further advances. we will reinforce our epidemic prevention and warn 100 systems become the undisputed number one epidemic response country leading the world but he had a warning that the world was now on the verge of

tripoli. ethiopia says it shot down a privately owned kenyan plane in somalia earlier this week in a statement to the african union and says its troops mistakenly believed the plane was on a suicide mission and reacted to protect its camp and in the southwest 6 people were killed when an aircraft carrying medical supplies to somalia went down. british prime minister bryce johnson is due to give a briefing later on sunday outlining plans to ease the u.k.'s lockdown that's expected to involve getting people back to work but with changes to the way offices operate and the way people commute it won't be the same as before this new parker experience from london. they are guidelines for unlocking the lockdown starting with how we travel to work. before the pandemic $325000.00 passengers boarded london underground trains every 15 minutes if 2 meters social distancing is applied only $50000.00 could board in that time one solution is to

stagger travel times putting an end to the idea of a normal office hours you've got infrastructure not out. and actually having guidance around. cycling is enjoying or in a song is under lockdown companies are being advised to install bigger bike racks allowing commuters to avoid public transport and in the office itself workers are being told to sit either side by side or back to back desks sharing should be avoided and some firms are being advised to install plexiglas between workstations and discourage access to communal areas such as kitchens. and when it comes to shared pens and staplers they're now off limits. understandably ages are

a wonderful project that couldn't sustain financially at all anymore many restaurants will be reopening with the recent collapse of the local currency believe it's become more expensive to operate them but this sector was hit hard months before because of lebanon's worst financial crisis in decades nearly 1000 outlets have closed since september. 150000 employees are employed in this sector. translates into 150000 families who live from the sector 25000 to are laid off between october and january we don't know the numbers now but i can tell you 120000 employees are sitting at home today. in another challenge restaurants that are back in business are obliged to operate a 30 percent capacity to protect against the coronavirus rising poverty and inflation also means fewer customers restaurant owners are asking for relief from taxes and low. to be reduced hotels are also asking for assistance but the state is

close to bankruptcy the hospitality sector used to be a pillar of the economy contra beating 10 percent of the g.d.p. it's also the biggest employer after the public sector. at least 18000 hotel employees have lost their jobs in recent months losses have been accumulating for years blamed partly on land being closed after to the war in neighboring syria as well as political instability that has kept tourists away now the pandemic has brought the sector to a halt with closing simply because we lost the hope of. a better tomorrow. to continue. for 70 years the bristol hotel hosted international conferences and dignitaries never closing even during the 15 year civil war that ended in 1900 this landmark is now a symbol of what many describe as one of lebanon's darkest times. beirut
