if you. knew risen lives inside and out a deal of fingers and murderers on al-jazeera. holding the powerful to account as we examine the u.s. is rolling in the world on al-jazeera. investigators from the international criminal court are in libya inspecting mass graves and looking into whether warlord khalifa haftar committed war crimes. but from doha everyone i'm come on santa maria with the world news from al-jazeera deadlock over a deal despite marathon talks on a compromise off the e.u. leaders differ over a coronavirus pandemic recovery fund also with iran's president declaring more than

a quarter of iranians may have been infected with corona virus we look at whether the world's facing a far bigger health crisis than 1st thought. we cannot. weak. and the tributes keep pouring in for the civil rights icon john lewis who's passed away the white house says it will fire the american flag at half staff in his own. so it's starting in libya where a team from the international criminal court is now on the ground tasked with investigating a warlord of a possible war crimes investigators from the i.c.c. of arrived in the capital to look into acts committed by forces loyal to kind of a half that is expected to include a visit to the mass graves found in tarahumara last month the 3 person team will also investigate booby traps left behind during

a retreat by have to fighters in residential areas south of tripoli the i.c.c. says it's received credible information regarding 11 mass graves containing men women and even children without the wads following the details of this investigation and tells us the government of national court wants to keep the spotlight off the i.c.c. team. the government so far seems to be reluctant in revealing the details about the team's. details exactly but we know from sources with the government of national accord nearly $225.00 bodies have been recovered from the mass graves around the city of horner and also loss of the secret notorious prisons as you know that we reported that in the past few weeks about the secret prisons where half the opponents including civilians in women were tortured and murdered and voted in the mass graves that's according to eyewitnesses

government officials and local officials from the city of horner along with medical sources now the team is also due to visit several areas in southern typically to check the areas where a land mines were planted in civilian areas specially those if you like ns are neighborhood insulated dean and also in the vicinity of the old inactive international airport these areas were like nearest to or a bettle field during the military campaign civilian areas had. land mines were planted by helped us forces namely by the russian mercenaries from the bag group and they killed dozens of innocent civilians who were impatient to return home immediately after the end of the fighting. it's actually 9 years since the u.n. security council unanimously referred reports of atrocities in libya to the i.c.c. granting judges jurisdiction to investigate possible war crimes and crimes against

humanity investigations to have to end his forces though that includes allegations of massacres kidnappings torture and mass burials also alleged war crimes such as the bombardment of civilian areas as well as the targeting of hospitals and medical workers during half just 14 months siege of tripoli the i.c.c. is also investigating reports of booby traps and improvised bombs planted in homes by have to find his as they were treated from the suburbs of the capital some thoughts now from the who's the founder and director of the southern institute the 1st public policy think tank in libya he says they have to has a history of getting away from international prosecution. if we use the un and the e.u. as a measure of these kind of protections that are almost what they are but there is a national level if they could only turn at the un security council and a veto at the european union so any of the members of the foreign here in spirit

council members or any of the 28 member place other members of the need you choose to be a statement or a sign generally 'd or our intent as i mentioned one of those actors will get a little falls apart and it seems like france and russia have interchangeably 'd be offering these kind of vetoes and it's almost kind of diplomatic immunity for the last several years not something that we can think of when it comes to the i.c.c. who can make a statement but really again it requires the will of a need for states that have the capacity to bring them to so i can't articulate in france in fact there are crimes of being investigated by the french course domestically about the role of the u.a.e. in yemen and that could be something that happens with the u.n. role for example have support in france or italy in $91.00 it's certainly happening in the united states what kind of doctor is there investigated for war crimes that there is going to a local in the county in virginia because helen kroger is

a jewel americans as you so kindly don't have them is that over that implemented noticing that there is so much interaction it's not under have there's this is not his 1st word he's been around for one year in the last 6 years he's launched $22.00 failed attempts or with already elected or appointed governments international reconciles gone and it seems to be the same case over and over again. well after 2 days of hard negotiations e.u. leaders do not appear to be close to an agreement over a coronavirus economic recovery fund even though there's been a compromise offered by the president of the european council to break the deadlock charles michel's revised the amount which would be paid out in grants to countries needing help to bounce back from their lock downs this is the 2nd day of negotiations off to 14 hours of talks on friday failed to find a breakthrough. it is overall a proposed $858000000000.00 coronavirus recovery fund the question is whether and how much should be distributed as grants or as loans on one side you have the 4

biggest economies france germany italy spain they want most of the money to be paid as grants the leaders of the netherlands austria denmark and sweden have urged a more frugal approach they're pressing for smaller grants and bigger loans meanwhile you've got hungry in poland who object to the proposal being tied to democratic rights let's check in with following this one from london the new proposal from shells michele what's that all about. this comes on saturday after those talks went right up until almost midnight local time on friday the u. councils are involving all of the member states show me show the head of the european council van hope held a series of separate meetings on saturday morning trying to get some movement and during the day what he's come up with this idea is us saying countries like the

netherlands and their allies in the so-called frugal states want to see a bigger share of the total recovery fund going in loans and less in grants as in giving money to those states in which states are we talking about well it's the likes of spain and italy which have really been hit hardest economically as well as in terms of deaths from covered 90 which are michelle has been saying that they could reduce the the amount that goes in grants from 560000000000 dollars to 5 $100000000000.00 that would leave around $350000000000.00 so a smaller sum in loans those states are not located him in the dutch have been saying in the last few hours that they want to see they even they want to see the entire amount reduced in some cases but also that hasn't actually satisfied them in terms of how it's sliced up conditionality is another problem you are mentioning

the likes of poland and hungary very concerned that allocating those funds would be dependent on meeting certain standards there have been a look there have been disputes involving hungary over that country's a rule of law in poland the way it has reformed its judiciary and so on so the loss of sticking points from those smaller countries as well it does seem that there has been some positive movements the austrian chancellor sebastian could in the last couple of hours saying that things are moving in the right direction but behind the scenes diplomats have been briefing the them that the chances of a of an agreement this weekend in brussels are still fairly slim kemal. following developments at that meeting in brussels thank you nutting well with over 14000000 cases in nearly 600000 deaths worldwide from corona virus

there is growing concern now about those numbers being a lot more conservative than we thought some countries are now estimating higher rates of infection than previously announced for example iran where the presidents and remember iran's already the worst affected country in the middle east says 25000000 people have been infected which amounts to more than a quarter of the population a far higher number than official counts the difference being it includes people who showed symptoms as narcotic favorable one of the most important matters is that here is to medical recommendations and social distancing to limit the spread of the corona virus according to the ministry of health estimates 25000000 iranians have been infected with the coronavirus so far and we have lost about 14000 of them within $150.00 days. it is possible that 30 to 35000000 citizens are at risk to be affected in the coming period this means that the number of patients who will be hospitalized will double it is possible the virus will

continue until march. let's look at india 2 where scientists have also estimated higher numbers of infections according to a survey from the indian council of medical research at the end of april point 73 percent of india's population may have been exposed to remember that population is 1350000000 people india supports the 1000000 mark on friday but experts of warn that number could be much higher so really what we're saying is that when you look at a map like this and i'm sure you're familiar with it the one from of the johns hopkins university which tracks cases all over the world i mean you look at the numbers and we'll bring them in now $14000000.00 total confirmed cases worldwide and the number of deaths which is now approaching $600000.00 that's the best snapshot that we have at any one period of time but these are only reported numbers the true numbers could be so much higher here's a master of the in teheran with more on those dramatic claims by president rouhani . this alarming hard to believe number comes on the 1st day of return to lock down

to a lockdown situation here in the capital tehran after we've seen a record number of deaths from the coronavirus pandemic in recent weeks now in the hours since this meeting took place in the hour since the president made this statement about 25000000 people potentially infected number that he said could turn into 30 or 35000000 in the next few months there was clarification from the secretary of the science committee on his taskforce and this gentleman put out a statement saying that the number that mr rouhani was talking about reflects those who were tested and showed signs of having antibodies and those were people that were potentially asymptomatic for the covert 19 virus and were not hospitalized he also made the point of illustrating that actual figures of infection and death that iran compiles that it then sends out to the world official confirmed figures those

come from people who are hospitalized and are tested positive in swab tests for the covert $900.00 coronavirus now what we see here the figure that mr rouhani is talking about perhaps a better word than infection is it's the total number of people that have been exposed in the country to the coronavirus now whether he misspoke or whether this was president hassan rouhani trying to fire a warning flare to illustrate iranians it remains a serious problem that they have to take the threat of the coronavirus seriously the point that the president made today either way is that iran has been and remains the worst affected country in the middle east. is then associate professor in cellular and molecular sciences that northumbria university in the u.k. we spoke to him earlier and he explained the accuracy of many things including antibody tests really is questionable. we've known from the 1st few weeks when people

started putting the availability of antibody tests the out these are not necessarily precise enough to be able to tell apart the 4 common flu coronaviruses from the covered 19 virus and as a result of that having not seen what exactly the techniques used in iran are accomplished that comment on whether or not the 25000000 is an overestimation a lot but based on what we've seen in the rest of the world. we think we have a prevalence of that this is of no more than 5 percent of the population being exposed i would hazard that this number is perhaps a little bit exaggerated a bit not necessarily an overestimation in the news ahead difference in the quality defines over time on the united nations secretary-general and turning to terrorists highlights urgent global inequalities in the wake of the pandemics. and how the pandemic exposed massive corruption that's damaging public

health in bangladesh. i know they're very hostile and also fairly dusty across areas of the middle east now to the south you can see quite a different story a lot of cloud has been spilling in of the last year as is a little overpressure tied to the monsoon rains and they're working their way towards this is going to produce some pretty heavy downpours at times if we could see into southern iran as much as $65.00 millimeters of rain that could well produce some flash floods and then as you can see it will work its way across towards yemen similar story where the rain is not as heavy but even so it could cause some flash floods basin pieces of cloud time which is of course a very high 50 celsius in baghdad a similar sort of temperature into kuwait on a monday the winds picking up so we'll see it a bit more in the way of sound and that temperature wise doha at the temperature

coming down to 37 celsius but it'll probably feel fairly humid with 37 then down into southern africa fine and dry throughout much of south africa and again quite a bit of cloud all to do this monsoon rains really impacting these eastern coastal areas so plenty of showers always fall south as mozambique and then through tanzania kenya towards somalia very heavy through the central regions the tropics particularly gathering around the gulf of guinea and then on monday some very heavy rain particularly in tibet and on towards guinea but all the while it's fine and dry on the south and warm importantly. frank assessments tourism but the income stream is dead in the water what's been the result in poaching quite significantly informed opinions there has been a very aggressive political rhetoric that has become very normal in israeli society in-depth analysis of the day's global headlines it's time for new policy gives us

a country i think not only seem to grady but he's threatening their stability we call continues inside story on al-jazeera. with al-jazeera these are our top stories this hour investigators from the international criminal court of arrived in libya's capital to look to whether forces loyal to warlord relief after committed war crimes mass graves and booby traps are found in the city of tire going to last month iran's president says $25000000.00 iranians have been infected with coronavirus which is more than a quarter of the whole population a son rouhani also says another 35000000 are at risk of contracting the virus. the

u.n. secretary general's delivered a stinging critique on inequality in the world during a speech marking nelson mandela international day and tonio good terror says the world is at breaking point in the coronavirus pandemic has only exposed the deep divisions in our societies after he gave that speech he spoke to our diplomatic editor james pace. in your speech secretary-general you describe a world out of balance you say we are at breaking point it is an idealistic speech but you are a realist how do you achieve the things that you want to achieve now my believe is that people. now aware of the enormous fragility of our world of our economies and of our societies for she with the addition to a microscopic virus that has put the fs put us on our knees for as you know the nation to climate change visualization to lawlessness in the cyber space for

deliberation to the new risks of nuclear proliferation again and my hope is that people will understand that when recovering when taking profits or the opportunity that of course after the coffee we need to restart when recovering people will be aware of the need to address the fragility that have caused the chaos that we have in today's world with the government and that requires fighting inequalities that require active climate action that requires international cooperation on the digital space that requires a in the end much stronger unity and solidarity in the way international relations are conceived well it's not obvious that we are going to win this battle we see also nationalists we see populist we see people trying to use the convience. to promote racism and xenophobia to the 5 but my feeling is that if one looks at the world populace are not doing well fighting the call for it and i hope people will

understand that only by international cooperation and only by a very strong sense of certainty that it it would be able to not only overcome the call with but to build a system that addresses the fragility is there to cover those the most rated. in bangladesh corruption and a lack of resources are hurting efforts to fight the covert 1000 outbreak families of patients so treatments in some hospitals are so expensive they're just beyond their reach and people who are raising those concerns they are being stifled there chantry reports from dhaka. bangladesh has increased the number of hospital to treat cope with 19 but despite the infections rising more than 2 thirds of the hospital beds are lying empty with people worried about the quality of treatment they would receive the government turned to the private sector to boost health care capacity but many private hospital were cold with 1000 cases are being treated do not have any credit monitoring and supervision to be hasn't. brought his father to
