municipalities making masking in public compulsory brian camp says local orders can't be more restrictive than measures he's put in place his team only strongly are just the willing of masks. the governor has taken a formal position on mass in the state of georgia so whatever the motivation is i think that at the end of the day we all have to do the right thing because it's the right thing to do and what the scientists are telling us is that the right thing to do is to wear mask mask are not a political statement mask are a public health to a necessary public health to the state of georgia continues to send mixed messages to everyone that lives here cases and no such thing in 40 of the 50 states hospitals are being stretched to the limit we were previously seeing about one in

10 or even one in 8 of our tests that we were doing in the community they were coming back positive now we're seeing one and or so about 25 percent of all the tests that we're doing which we've also ramped up but we're seeing more of those that are coming back as that which concerns us for increased transmission in the community the u.s. government centers for disease control recommends winger mask as do most medical professionals but it's only mandated in about half the states many retailers have their own policies no mask no service but that's what some angry reactions including one customer drawing a gun in florida you know new york's governor under cuomo has enlisted one of the most trusted voices in america to get the message across like when you wear a mask you have my respect. because your mask doesn't protect you. it protects me morgan freeman appears on these public service announcements america

the hospital shows there are no available i.c.u. beds left to treat covert 1000 patients the food it was recorded by a doctor who works at a facility but does not want his identity to be revealed health officials in the city have a knowledged the corona virus has become a major public health threat as many days with 100 percent of i.c.u. bed occupation for around 10 days some people had to wait to get an i.c.u. bait they could all get medical care but had to wait for a vacancy. even though the number of 1000 cases have started to decrease in brazil's main cities it is in smaller ones like i'm being asked where the number of coronavirus infections continue to rise outside the hospital people wait in line to be treated. as one of them he's father is receiving treatment for the disease. of. our kind because my father got the disease and he's actually in intensive care

right now accompanied him to hospital and since i had flu symptoms of trying to get tested couldn't do it brazil's president who tested positive for the virus remains in isolation he says he's being treated with hydroxy chloral queen despite some warning against using the drug by the world health organization. it's worked for me and many people many doctors say it works and not campaigning for this remedy even because the cost is very low i mean that's right some people down for it others feel like doing that for ideological reasons it seems but the fact is it's working. well for not always being criticized for his handling of the crisis caused by covert 1000 he opposed lockdowns who referred to the disease early on as a little flu to health ministers resigned because of differences of opinion with the president now the ministries being run by an active duty military general sees a lot of the bus willow took office at least 25 members of the military have been

appointed in his ministry human rights groups say they are concerned we have like 9 ministers and military. 3000 people in your hard ministration is the biggest number. you can read an invite to clerk in the ministry of health she was challenging all ministers that there were doctors and there were not. and were not then i always. told somebody who will follow his instructions. so it's. very troubling and you can tell us over 75000 people have died of covert 19 in brazil many people believe those deaths could have been prevented evil only the president had responded differently they said will. nearly

a dozen states in india have reimposed lock downs after a spike in infections coronavirus cases there are expected to pass 1000000 in the next day with testing still limited its fall for the true number of cases could be much higher than the $25000.00 people have died so far. russian cyber spies have been accused of trying to steal research on a possible corona virus vaccine the u.k. u.s. and canada say that hackers from russian intelligence services are targeting institutions that are developing a vaccine the kremlin though denies the allegations was a serious charlie angela reports. it's a global race to find a vaccine for 19 and one country is accused of trying to cheat. the u.k.'s national cybersecurity center says russian hackers known as a p t 29 the jukes or cozy have tried to infiltrate coronavirus facilities to steal their work britain the u.s.

and canada whose research into possible vaccines is quickly advancing have all been targeted to be targeting with cyber attacks the international effort not just here in the u.k. but in kind of in the u.s. to try and find a vaccine which is for the greater good of the world as well as our people here at home and i think it's actually right that we called out in this measured way with our international partners the hackers are believed to operate as part of the russian intelligence service allegations that russia strongly denies the u.k. government says the hackers are using fishing and malware in their attacks and they've supplied coding instructions that were going to his asians can protect themselves this latest attack comes as the u.k. reveals russian hackers also interfered in the country's general election last year by trying to spread an amplifier leaks documents online video to go in there are severe the when you ask that she were up or a criminal investigation is going on but i've this stage it would be inappropriate for us to say something britain has said this is the many so vague and controversial that it's almost impossible to understand if it's inappropriate to

say it then do not say if you do any of the straight the fact is. there's also evidence of meddling in the $26000.00 bricks it vote and the election that followed a year later the government says it will finally release a report with details next week for high level attacks in 4 years but security experts say they're not surprised but it's changed is that what amir putin starting about 2013. changed his policy and ordered the intelligence services to engage in a more systematic aggressive series of actions to destabilize elections and to. disrupt russia's. rivals which is the european union nato united kingdom france united states they also say that vaccine development is a priority target intelligence agencies russia wouldn't be the only state involved

you are taking decisive action then getting rid of your longstanding foreign minister and saying where we've had enough is a sign i guess to the public from our president that he is doing something firing a chief peace negotiator the failing to do his job could mean a fresh start with negotiations or it could mean more of what president aliyev calls offensive diplomacy robin 1st year walker al-jazeera tbilisi we're going to weather update next here on al-jazeera then calling out fire lasers the european union the search to do more about those defying u.n. arms embargo in libya. may come specifically for the fish and you know. and feasting in cattle as well since why is the perfect home for the season gentle giant.

well again this is out is the honest remind you of the main news this hour the governor of the u.s. state of georgia is suing atlanta's map for making it mandatory to wear face masks in public governor brian camp says the move violates his executive order preventing local governments with forcing such measures because of corrupt us put up of coronavirus cases in brazil this past 2000000 more than 76000 people died it's the world's 2nd biggest up break off the u.s. and the u.k. the u.s. and canada have accused russian cyber spies of trying to steal coronavirus vaccine

research they say the hackers are linked to russian intelligence services moscow denies the accusations. a top official of the us state department says that the european union needs to be more critical of countries that violate a u.n. arms embargo in libya david schenker is a 2nd assistant secretary for near east affairs says the block is biased and only criticizes turkish involvement in the conflict shanker says the e.u. isn't doing enough to stop violations by countries like the united arab emirates or egypt peter millet is a former british ambassador to libya he says the arms embargo needs to be fully monitored. unfortunately the european voice has been divided for well over 12 months partly because countries like france have been backing heft are the greeks and the cypriots have now jumped on that bandwagon to oppose turkish support for the government's national accord so europe has been unable to speak

with a single voice operationally rini was which is not rationed to monitor the arms embargo was a well meaning initiative but since it only monitors sea transport and not air transport it is really only monitoring turkey's potential violations of the un been arms involved of not violations of violations which are flown in by the emirates on gypsies or the russians in particular from the u.a.e. there were multiple reports earlier this year of as many as 100 flights from the emirates to eastern libya and to western egypt flying in all sorts of military equipment and we don't know the quantities that have been shipped in from turkey but libya is already awash with weapons those weapons have actually brought about a military stalemate around the city of sirte what we really need now is

a cease fire and proper monitoring and complete monitoring of the arms embargo egypt's president as well that he won't ignore direct threats to egyptian and libyan national security that's after tribal leaders who support the ward connerly for after call for egyptian military intervention in libya. has previously said that egypt would support halftimes forces if tripoli's internationally recognized government at its turkish allies renewed their assault on the city of sirte. hundreds of protesters forced their way into an oil production sites in southern china zia calling on the government to invest more money in the region which has high unemployment and failing infrastructure a largely peaceful demonstration was the latest in weeks of unrest a woman stripped of her british citizenship after joining eisel will be allowed back to the u.k. to fight for her return. was found in a syrian refugee camp last year

a court has ruled that she can challenge the decision on her nationality in person on jazeera sania gago reports she was just 15 years old when she ran away from her home in london but life in the so-called islamic state she lived under eisel rule for 3 years before she was found pregnant in a syrian refugee camp this was how she found out she had been stripped of her british citizenship from a letter sent to her mother please find enclosed papers that relate to a decision taken by the home secretary to deprive your daughter. in law of the daughter the notice of the home secretary's decision has been on fog today would be very and the order removing her has subsequently been made.

shocked by i am struck by graham's request to return home was always going to be a controversial one at the government's decision to revoke her british citizenship was also criticized their reason because her mother was born in bangladesh by go automatically had citizenship of that country but that was refuted by the bangladeshi government itself the home office has called the ruling very disappointing that the heart of this is not a question of show me a bag of citizenship itself rather have access to her right to appeal of the government it's become a problematic political issue the move by the british government had effectively left begum stateless going against international law but they maintained that she still poses a security threat so the idea that you know male pointers were mocking the rest were allowed. to citizenship stripped only when she appeared in tabloid press

is the actual question how is a. national security risk is higher than others and also happens to be considered a risk so 4 years after she left ownership in the press the government is set to appeal against the ruling citing national security concerns the court said by gum couldn't fight the case effectively from syria and had the right to return to britain but becomes right to return home has divided public opinion and raises questions over whether a 15 year old girl who left home of her own free will should remain stateless her decision to do so sunny al-jazeera. the news top court has canceled a data transfer deal between europe and the u.s. because of concerns that the american government will snoop on people's personal information the pact allowed around 5000 companies including tech giants such as facebook to send data across the atlantic alexy o'brien explains

the case was called facebook arland and shrimps for words that could have major global implications sram says all of that and previously activist make shrimps so we are really really happy with this judgment he launched legal action against facebook and its european headquarters in ireland arguing his dollars that wasn't protected when it was transferred to the social media giant servers in the u.s. . the case went from arland to europe's top cotton oxenberg where judges agreed with him 5 commission implementing decision e.u. 2016 well of 150 is invalid. the court has ordered the scrapping of an agreement called the previous the shield which was supposed to keep the diameter of european customers safe when it was transmitted across the atlantic not because many u.s. tech companies are obliged to give some access to government surveillance the court

found that safety can't be ensured this has been seen as the way in which the european commission has bowed down to us employer ends and the court of justice claims that this is not enough so what happens now with the privacy shield is that a lot of data transfers are going to have to be stopped. max rahm's has been here before this is the 2nd major data deal that's been spiked because of him the 1st was previously shields pretty desists are called safe harbor the cases stem from revelations by whistleblower edward snowden that the u.s. government was snooping on people's online data and communications i think the only solution we can possibly see is serious surveillance reform in the u.s. because that now becomes a business interest the silicon valley will simply realize that either in the us laws are going to be changed to a certain extent or they will literally have to move

a lot of their operation to europe and even split their systems into 2 parts the us government says it's deeply disappointed by the latest decision on facebook in the european union a study in the ruling i know such as us and businesses seeking surance today on both sides of the atlantic so let me be clear we will continue our work to ensure the continuity of safe officials. who do not hold another global data sharing mechanism used by thousands of companies for things like cloud storage payroll and finance while the e.u. and the u.s. must now work out a new way to share data the court stressed that all previously watchdogs must do more to keep users material safe elixir brian al jazeera. the f.b.i. is investigating a major hacking campaign that targeted some of the world's high profile twitter users hackers took over the social media accounts of celebrities and political
