season we have a country that is a really a continent and we had some cities there really went through the problem was in the middle tide and other ones that didn't start yet so i think that we're. struggling with from latin america's atlantic coast to chile on the pacific the pandemic is accelerating chile now has the highest number of infections per 1000000 inhabitants in the world and despite months of partial or total lockdowns less than 40 percent of chileans are staying home prompting the government to limit permits to go out to buy food and medicine to twice a week. the president has asked congress to fast track a law raising penalties for violating quarantine to 5 years in prison but many are questioning the strategy the vast majority of the people in the cars that you see here are returning home from work legally there are countless industries and

businesses that are operating like for example this well known coffee chain and that are supposed to be providing essential services but they clearly are not and what's also clear is that the government is turning a blind eye because of economic considerations all the while telling people that they have to stay home hospitals are at a breaking point and while countries from europe and asia worry about a 2nd outbreak here in south america it will be months to put the 1st when even begins to subside you see in human al-jazeera santiago the world health organization is warning of a new and dangerous phase in the pandemic after a record number of infections for single day more than 150000 cases were reported on thursday the w.h.o. is urging people everywhere to maintain extreme vigilance the world is in a new and dangerous phase many people are understandably fed up with being at home countries are understandably good to open up their source 87 economies

world's largest refugee camps as infections there continue to spread but june has the latest. it's monsoon season in the world's largest refugee settlement for the rohingya who live here one of the most vulnerable populations in the world and already dire situation grows even worse. but we're in trouble now when it rains water enters my house we can't sleep properly we have to keep our children on our shoulders at midnight if it rains. but the weather isn't the only thing keeping hammad awake at night far more worrying for him and his family is the threat posed by coated 19. if there are health risks we're not going out from our home with following the instructions of the government so dozens of refugees have tested positive for corona virus since the 1st case was confirmed in the camps in mid may concerned about the devastating toll coded 1000 could take on

the remainder of the united nations refugee agency has been working hard to construct isolation shelters and quarantine facilities that people live cheek to jowl and very crowded circumstances they often say that the population density of the camp is double that and so you can imagine demick diseases are quite hard to control. the district of cox's bazaar where the refugee settlements are located was placed in lockdown in early april according to u.n. h.c.r. bangladesh while lifesaving and critical activities in the camps continue the presence of humanitarian workers has been cut by 80 percent in an attempt to reduce transmission of the virus but maybe the thing to really emphasize is the role of the refugee volunteers because when you're really rely on word of mouth to spread information has to be in a language that people understand. with the internet largely shut down in and

always fantasy on june then looked like july 4th independence day for the people actually it means independence for things like it has actually come to pass this year since the protests began following the police killing of george floyd in minneapolis federal and local politicians have pledged to reform the police new york state for example has criminalized chokeholds but activists point out that new york city had already outlawed the strangling of suspects by police in 1903 yet according to filed police complaints the practice is still widespread. that's why the call with these demonstrations isn't for reform but reimagining the entire system of law and order beginning with defunding the police redirecting money from militarized force to a system that prioritizes deescalation and healing social problems that police in atlanta where there are also demonstrations have reacted in fury to arrest of

a police officer who shot a black man in the back and then declared i got him is another sign for some that the time for mere reform has passed in washington d.c. protesters took at me at the martin luther king jr memorial and then marched to the lincoln memorial the significance of this particular protest on the steps of the lincoln memorial on june 18th. but out of time of unprecedented nationwide protests about systemic racism was so important to the organizers i was this is where dr king gave his 963 speech about his dream of economic and racial justice and the false promises of lincoln's emancipation proclamation was very deliberate and it's very symbolic we wanted this to be more than just another protest in the street. voices to the loving heart that take your eyes and that they understand that we will not stop doing this until you answer our calls for change

economy and meanwhile ethiopia has done for quite $6000000000.00 of its own resources to build this thing out of minutes not seen your. point of national pride where it is going to be able to generate power for itself and for the entire region as a means of lifting the country out of poverty and you know they've gone through a very. long process of raising funds from everyday citizens so they have a lot invested and seen this through. well still ahead here on al-jazeera no return we'll have more on why the u.s. navy is refusing to reinstate the captain despite recommendations that he is given his job back. then we'll tell you why strategically reigning in force has been spared from tough u.s. sanctions so stories after the break.
