and the drive to attract tourists back to one of the world's most visited cities but there are of course safety concerns. so then china is planning to push through national security laws on hong kong following months of mass protests against the central government the draw floor is expected to be a rubber stamp to china's biggest political gathering in beijing activists fear it could be used to limit its political freedoms as katrina you know reports 2. on the eve of china's national people's congress the announcement of the national security law which criminalizes secession foreign interference and a subversion of state power in hong kong. could be shin's entry hong kong as an inseparable part of the. people's republic of china the m.p.c.

is the highest organ of state power in light of new circumstances and need the n.p.c. is exercising the power in trying to in the constitution to establish and improve at the state level a legal framework and enforcement mechanism for safeguarding national security in hong kong. the new law would bypass hong kong's regiment of counsel and is beijing's response to months of dissent and sometimes violent part of the protests in hong kong the draft legislation will be discussed when china's leaders meet over the next week here in beijing it's likely to further isolate president xi jinping he already faces a tide of international criticism because of the chinese government's handling of the coronavirus pandemic led by its biggest trading partner the us donald trump accuses china of covering up the outbreak beijing denies this but the argument is pushing the 2 countries closer to confrontation and phase one of the deal to end

their 2 year trade war hangs in the balance he's mixing politics economics and also security issues very very dangerous mixture any kind of miscalculation could result in a real tragedy. another thought in china's side u.s. support for taiwan wednesday's inauguration of president when has pushed beijing's goal of reunification further away as china's n.p.c. over the next week surging and to china sentiment abroad isn't it or only a challenge at home leaders must tackle a slowing economy rising unemployment and new clusters of the coronavirus new outbreaks in rouhani and in china's northeast have struck fears of a 2nd wave of infections and in rural areas millions wait for an end to the life of poverty 2020 is the government deadline to create what. cause

a moderately well off society. no previous n.p.c. has ever had to bear all these conflicts and difficulties like that. there are too many tasks it's mission impossible. but when the national congress problems will make way for pageantry as a 1400000000 chinese look to president xi to pave a path through what many see as an increasingly precarious future. al-jazeera beijing. in hong kong with more people there are a lot. it's hard to see those major protests flaring up again because of course social distancing rules are still being rigorously enforced here in hong kong by the police and of course for that reason this announcement from beijing may not be a coincidence after all the timing is very interesting indeed to say the least we'll be getting some reaction from pro-democracy figures here in hong kong

including denis kwok he says the news from beijing has left him speechless he says he believes that the hong kong government and the chinese government are actually using the covert 19 outbreak as cover to further clamp down on hong kong now the mood here in hong kong really began to change earlier this year in january when beijing appointed a new head of their central liaison office and also a new head of the hong kong and macau affair office those are the 2 beijing bodies that handle china's affairs here in hong kong and since then we've had the round up of some 15 veteran pro-democracy politicians we've had the police commissioner warning that hong kong is facing a serious terrorism threat in his words and now of course we have you know might pompei o the us secretary of state this week warning that perhaps hong kong's special trading status with the united states may not be able to continue if he feels that

hong kong's autonomy continues to be threatened emily lau is a leading member of hong kong's democratic party and she says the public is concerned about what they see as china's encroachment on hong kong as autonomy. i can assure you that people here are very very concerned and very alarmed and very disturbed because they fear such legislation would take away our freedoms would take away the personal safety and the rule of law and the people are very very nervous indeed because they fear that there is so much silly by straying and so much clashes in our legislature that if they try to push something through there it could take a long time so they sing the british just do it and forced it on us but this is terrible if you want to enact legislation affecting people's freedoms and save the rule of law certainly is up to our legislature to do the job and that's exactly

what is said in the basic law which is our mini constitution promulgated by beijing it says we should legislate on our own but now it seems they have breaking up all of the promises and they want to legislate for us well some people say that because of the pandemic beijing's views that many countries which used to be supportive of hong kong and they're now too busy with their own hands crisis so they will not want to spare time to look at home car and so there is this chinese expression when there's a fire they will come in and kill and hoping that nobody will notice it is really very bad and but i hope the international community you will care because there are many many internet many foreign citizens living yet there are many americans brand new zealand the canadians they are not thinking at what the media so it's

a very international city so if something so bomb badly happens i hope the international community will tell china to stop it. let's move on to yemen now where doctors without borders is warning of what it calls an unfolding catastrophe at his hospital in southern yemen the aid group is calling for urgent help from the united nations following the deaths of more than a 3rd of cova 1000 patients recently admitted to it center in the port city of aden it is the only dedicated virus treatment clinic in southern yemen and talked to say there is short of personal protective equipment in virus tests johns hopkins university says there are 30 reported deaths in yemen but doctors without borders says the total could be much higher or the u.n. secretary's a spokesman stephane do churches says it's slightly covert $1000.00 cases are under reported in yemen we have to look at that specific missteps request obviously

as we've been reporting here almost on or on a daily basis u.n. staff both in and out of yemen have been working to deliver critical programs. to help deal with the humanitarian situation especially the covert cases it's clear to us that number of cases are probably underreported given the state of affairs it know in yemen and that this again this should serve as yet another reminder of why we need to see a stepped up political process. well let's speak now to a clear hard draw on whose doctors without borders head of mission in yemen she joins us from sana on the phone claire perhaps you can fight can provide some clarity on this is very difficult to get precise information obviously but you're you're seeing things up close tell us more about what's going on as far as you're concerned. we manage to major.

in many. ways mean identity. and we can be very severe cases where there's to be a case that being referred to us and clearly are going. to be a case that our need the ice. cases that come to us quite neat. because the. behind that can be sure that they know when they come very late. and when admission we'll to. know. then. given that. heads we are close to being or so so we think that. we do it quite.

positionally so you would say definitively more than the official figure as i mentioned on the john hopkins johns hopkins university track which is one of the official figures around the world only 30 deaths listed for the whole of yemen what do you make of that. what i think is that there is. this issue of if didn't where many people have a few. days very few facts and they were very daft very few people that we've come to think. and. i think at the present time i'm saying that i thought that they were musicals so they did reach out those who tested and there were very few testing center will. keep it in day after

i've seen flu symptoms in the context that's the rule of the time being. so it's more likely that much more. to buy copies than and much more deaths of causes than searches for sure i know it's very hard to put a number on it but would you estimate that the number must be hundreds. but yes 500 for sure because we're hearing about barrel statistics as well and normally i think it's in aden correct me if i'm wrong but normally you'd have a number of 10 burials and now it's 80. yes i mean. 'd most of their patients that we're receiving may then i think they're going to have died and all of them very. systems that really look can i could not all

of them with teeth that they had they're very strict and when you know. films that are very specific to cause people will be assumed. but we can never be sure. the u.n. say they are working to deliver critical programs to help deal with the humanitarian situation as a whole but especially with covert cases is not what you're seeing it does more need to be done. yes. for a long time we. respond very quickly to country women. because for a long time the country. couldn't. you

know. that was a very rare event that there. was that where there you go really other that we can. really feel. it we can be terrible. right well we wish you well with your ongoing fight that. do appreciate your time thank you well cleanup operations have begun in india and in bangladesh after the most powerful cycling to go in 20 years cycling on point killed at least 84 people and destroyed thousands of homes there are now concerns about the spread of coronavirus and emergency shelters where millions of people sought safety india correspondent elizabeth paranoia reports now from new delhi. is a father in mourning his 13 year old daughter much me died when parts of the han collapsed on her during cycling on wednesday. she was in class when at

a good school she told me dad i want to study close by to start you know she was so good at her school work and love to draw. much me was one of dozens of people killed in the state of west bengal where i am palm made landfall with wind speeds of 165 kilometers an hour. the cycloid tore through west bengal and neighboring a dismissed state uprooting trees destroying homes vehicles and much else in its path. in the city of course people assessed the damage after the storm passed. brought hours of heavy rain flooding neighborhoods. thousands of homes were also flattened by the day. when the storm started we managed to reach the cycling center now our harlem is not there anymore it's gone we're going back to see what we can salvage. millions remain without power and. people

in the densely populated low lying areas around the bay of bengal are used to cyclons but emergency workers say the aftermath of will be harder to manage as they try to stop the spread of the corona virus 650000 people were evacuated to emergency shelters in west bengal then a descent 2000000 and bank of the was that there are too many people here it's impossible to maintain social distancing i'm very concerned we couldn't stay at home because of the storm and here we are worried about corona i'm just trying to dodge both and with communication lines cut all their concerns about the extent of the damage and hard to reach areas including the ecologically fragile so their bonds mangroves region home to many rare animals including endangered bengal tigers elizabeth al-jazeera. moves in kolkata the where the damage is still.

damaged excess program has seen as massive and something which chief minister about angie defy she defines this as something that she's never seen in many many years before this bengal was witness to cyclon i love which was in 2009 but it was not at this you know magnitude the kind of devastation the bengal has seen right now and what is also something which is overwhelming for the state of ministration is a what was anticipated was that some districts would be affect it but the cycle has affected many more districts which means a lot more work for the state administration to do and also the kind of areas they need to reach to assess the situation before restoration work and to get that all fallen trees on the roads there are no line cables that are walls that have collapsed in various houses and buildings and that is something which a lot of people have to grapple with apart from the state administration let's not forget the good ole now vitus up on the mic is also something that the state

administration is grappling with having close to 3000 cases and a little over 100 deaths due to the good old of lidice the chief minister has said that due to the cycle in the last 72 deaths that have been reported from breast the goal so that is what was then god has to deal with not just the the go on about to spend a big but also the off the back off the cycle. well plenty more still ahead on the news hour including why an iranian shipment of venezuela fuels the threat of a showdown with the united states. right now. yes we meet a 13 year old who's taken on the job of teacher and during the pandemic. high level talks have been held a very controversial mega dam being built by the prime minister's ovi theo p. and sudan held a video conference to discuss the issues between them as sudan and egypt fear the 4

point $6000000000.00 nile river project will trap their essential water supply ethiopia says the dam will bring economic benefits to all 3 countries the discussions are set to continue here morgan joins us live from the sudanese capital of khartoum inhibit the set of sydney's prime minister was in talks with egypt on tuesday now with the theo pins so they clearly some kind of go between was the latest. well this all started when if you propose that sudan if you and egypt sign an initial agreement because it wants to start filling the dam by july now that is something that sudan last week has rejected and said that all 3 sides should come to the negotiating table but because of the global pandemic the coronavirus they are going to have to do it virtually and that is what has happened over the past few days now today in the state of the prime minister of sudan and the prime minister of if your health talks along with the ministers of irrigation and national security and intelligence from the 2 countries and it follows talks

between say ministers from from egypt and sudan on tuesday and they've all agreed that they will go back to the negotiating table now the question is when will they do that that is yet to be decided the 3 sides have met before they've held several rounds of talks here in the sudanese capital how to live also help talks in washington d.c. and were set to sign a deal in late february but if you can withdrew during the final moments saying that it needed further consultations with its leadership now before with growing the 3 sides have said that they've agreed on the schedule for filling the dam as well as mccann isms of drought and dry periods but they were not able to determine or identify or come to an agreement on the terms of drought and dry periods so lots of things to be discussed there's also the issue of safety and with the sudanese prime minister trying to do right now is trying to bring the 3 to try to bring the 3 sides so we know that if you care has set its mind to try to start filling the

dam by july but what we do not know is how soon will the 3 sides come together and if that will happen if those virtual talks that has been proposed by the sudanese prime minister abdullah will happen before if he appears thoughtful in early july what about further international intervention could there be mediators from the united states. well that we've already seen that nic we've seen the united states intervening in late december january and february and we've seen the 3 sides making several rounds of trips to the washington d.c. meeting with state secretaries basically coming to some kind of an agreement before one side seems to be backing off and that's why these talks have been held going on for years now sudan is not a mediator let's make that very clear sudan is a stakeholder in this dam because so dan has the flu now flowing through it and then on words to egypt and that's something the state minister for foreign affairs made very clear early in the afternoon when he said that so dan also has interests and has worries and concerns about people in that and so they want to make sure

that not only if european and egypt agree to some kind of deal but that the deal is also satisfactory to sudan which is a strange stakeholder because it has concerns about what the impact of the dam would be on its agricultural lands so far we have to see other countries intervening. we've seen if you've been saying that it's concerned if any of the country does come forward and try to mediate then they are going to have to go back to square one and that will not be possible because they want to start feeling that down by july already we will see how this progresses for the meantime thanks very much indeed morgan there and called to government forces have taken control of another town in western libya but was handed over after negotiations with forces loyal to him for half the. important supply route from have to troops the government forces of a major campaign in western libya could several other towns and a major break in the past week. well turkey is warning of grave consequences in libya after forces loyal to the warlord need to have to threaten their strikes

against turkish interests turkey's foreign ministry warns any attack would result in half to forces being considered legitimate targets a turkish forces are in libya supporting the un recognized government in tripoli well you serve about there is an international security and political analyst for such a foundation for political economic and social research and he explains where after is likely to attack or sites they do say so but. lang you make an analysis a civilian and we shouldn't take him serious because miss mari the spokesperson of the after hours army is making a lot of funny explanations they were the but from the point of perspective of a military analyst you should talk to them if you take them serious for this reason the 30 ish mystery of foreign affairs takes the issue as a serious or warning him that it will have real consequences if you targets the search for solutions and interest in site is very well known that turkey has also

air defense systems which is. protecting its positions interests and especially the cities like tripoli for this reason if. 'd after forces try to use the aircrafts in order to bomb being to the turkish interests and to cause issues probably turkish side will not stop back and use the air defense systems not only from the libyan soil but the same time from the mediterranean which turkey has 2 ships which is waiting with a very well technology call armaments on its. the united states has announced its intentions to pull out of a tree see that allows on the aerial surveillance flights over another country's jurisdiction is known as the open skies treaty and it came into effect in 2002 it's been signed by 35 different nations a new set up in a bid to have a conflict washington is accused russia of violating the pact on multiple occasions

the u.s. is expected to pull out from the deal within 6 months so let's get more on this with the white house correspondent can be how could incomplete is not the 1st treaty the u.s. has pulled out of it was donald trump to say yeah no you're absolutely right the united states is long accused russia of violating this treaty excusing it of using this is an opportunity to fly over the united states even mapping out according to u.s. intelligence critical u.s. infrastructure that could then be later vulnerable for a cyber attack in fact the u.s. president has complained that this agreement has allowed russia to even fly over his new jersey a state something that made him very angry as you point out this isn't the 1st agreement that the united states has pulled out of in fact last year it left the i n f treaty intermediate nuclear forces treaty again accusing russia of violating this and saying that it only wanted to be a part of something that china was also

a part of in fact the national security council issuing a statement in advance of the u.s. president saying that the united states looks forward to negotiating an agreement with both russia and china a new arms control framework that goes beyond the cold war constructs and keeps the entire world safe we should point out the russia denies these allegations but the u.s. president speaking as he left the white house said that this is something the open skies agreement that he feels russia has violated and that is why he is making this decision. russia as us have developed burgard relationship as you know we worked on the oil problem to gether i think we have a very good relationship with russia but russia didn't adhere to the treaty so until they are here we will pull out but there's a very good chance we'll make a new agreement or do something to put that agreement back together. on another issue that agreement has be reached with saddam on compensation linked to the $998.00 u.s.

embassy bombings what more can you tell us about. yeah this is essentially a framework for compensation this resolves the claims surrounding a 998. bombing of the u.s. embassy in africa and this follows an agreement that was reached earlier this year over the 2000 of the u.s.s. cole what this essentially does is it is a conditions towards removing the designation against khartoum for being a state sponsor of terrorism by the united states and what this is essentially the united states says this its effort to kind of help the civilian led transitional government now what we know about all of this is that according to at least one congressional aide the amount that the victims could receive in there were hundreds including 12 1 americans cumulatively cumulatively is about $300000000.00 but in terms of the exact number of the settlement that has not been released still

this is being recognized by at least one u.s. secretary of state as a 180 degree turn in u.s. dealings with the sudanese government they he tweeted in fact formerly we were adversaries now we are partners so this is certainly being seen as a significant development and they are right that's part of what i said can we talk about thank you. still ahead here on al-jazeera test track and trace the virus why the u.k.'s new contact with jews be rolled out nationwide is still offline. and are there plenty of sunshine throughout much of the middle east and the arabian peninsula nichols the time it has been on the high side particularly through the middle east in the last few days but the touch is all set to actually come down so

iran for help for fuel itself and chemicals to help get the oil industry back on track. those 5 ships are bringing gasoline regarding the technical support for the reactivation of the refinery what the venezuelan government asked us for in the past week was to bring input materials catalysts which iran brought through the plains shipped tracking shows the 1st of the 5 tankers left the iranian port city of banda rob us and match the 1st tanker fortune is expected to arrive in venezuela in the next few days iran is a longtime ally of venezuela and fellow rival of the united states both countries oil slick design are we under u.s. sanctions the white house says it's considering how to respond to the shipment this would be an example of the iranian regime taking the wealth of the iranian people and wasting it in venezuela on the dirt. the us is one of more than 60 countries

circumstances that are probably going to be. the extent of venezuela and iran say the trade is a win win for both countries iran got much needed gold venezuela the oil and both got to send a message to the united states alexia brian el jazeera. israelis are celebrating jerusalem day the anniversary of his ready forces occupying east roost women 167 previous marches by set lists increased tensions between jews and palestinians this year's event is jail down because of coronavirus restrictions are a force that sent this update from occupied east jerusalem. well this isn't quite as advertised this marking of jerusalem day or 30 said given permission for some 700 people to gather at several locations around the outside of the old city here in occupied east jerusalem here inside the jaffa gate you see we have got a few scores of people without much social distancing going on it has to be said that this is

a much smaller marking of this day than what we usually see usually it's tens of thousands of people who march through the heart of the city through the muslim quarter as well often causing some tensions with palestinian residents though see this is a a triumphalist commemoration of the beginning of the occupation in 1967 instead of that we're seeing a much smaller limited gathering because of the coronavirus restrictions also would be surprising if authorities haven't taken into account the fact that most of the residents here in occupied east jerusalem have been denied access to their 3rd holiest site the al aqsa mosque compound throughout the holy month of ramadan a full commemoration of this day by right wingers settlers religious nationalist jews could well of that's a great attention is unusual it's ending on this day with some 450 people allowed to gather at the western wall and this is a very different commemoration than we usually see. the palestinian authority has rejected

a key measure to help open up the country so the hall has more now from the out of white. well this is the very picturesque setting the isle of wight off the south coast of england for the piloting of the initial version of the national health service smartphone app designed to be used in conjunction with human tracing and a vastly expanded testing regime to make what boris johnson hopes will be a world beating test trace and isolate system in place by the 1st of june in order of course so that the lockdown can be lifted safely guarding against an uncontrolled 2nd wave but it's into its 2nd week of piloting here we're told that $53.00 and a half 1000 of the island's residents have signed up to the app out of a population of over 80000 pretty good take up there the app will track their movements it will track their proximity with others also using the app they can feed into the app if they develop symptoms equally the app can send them notifications telling them if they've been in proximity or in contact with somebody

else who's developed symptoms and they then be given a message we understand from government ministers and downing street who've made it all but clear that the app is not going to be ready for that 1st of june deadline issues still being worked out they will roll out 1st the human elements of tracing an army of 25000 new recruits newly trained by the 1st of june able to deal with 10000 new cases a day says the prime minister and the testing regime scaled up to 200000 tests a day by the end of the month while the u.k. seems to have a long way to go to beat the likes of south korea a country that by early this month had registered 0 new infections until suddenly an outbreak was noted in a sole nightclub that country's very aggressive and effective test trace and isolate system went into immediate action and within days that outbreak was declared contained that's what a world beating system looks like. more than 2 weeks after british prime minister

way different administrations react in very different ways the more cautious scottish approach is being broadly welcomed by residents and contrasts sharply with the speeds people in england were urged back to work thank you duckie about the long term like health statistics much better than boras has pictures you're looking compared to. their issue comes across the 1st minister's plan for lifting scotland's locked down is similar to much of what was announced by boris johnson the wool schoolchildren you see often longer in scotland the main difference appears to be the way she has communicated with the public she has been admirably clear and forthright and candid through a lot this emergency and you know even some of the people who vote conservative or labor in scotland are prepared to concede that. but in terms of actual policy you know there's been very little difference between scotland and politics as usual has been suspended temporarily at the seat of power but this unity is unlikely to hold

worst she's experienced in her 25 years in hospitality i mean normally in this period during july and august for example we have a lot of people from the middle east from from dubai from riyadh but the problem now we can say that we have totally lost 2020 because there is no doubt that the business for not coming back i mean strongly coming back before 2021 paris is one of the world's most visited cities tourism one of its main industry so reopening and reviving the sector is vital for its economy but doing that safely when the health crisis isn't over is a huge challenge paris is not alone in this low his global world so every capital every city i've got the same challenges actually so i'm pretty sure. but we'll will all become intent to have a say in safety measures everywhere some of paris's smallest museums have been permitted to reopen only 10 visit
