6:03 pm
to leave any children behind when it comes to the emergency education program put in place as a contingency for the cope with the ongoing outbreak here in mexico which is the 2nd worst in latin america 2nd only to brazil but elementary schools secondary schools here in mexico have been closed in many states since the month of march when the pandemic really started to gain steam here in mexico the government the federal government is betting on on remote learning something that a lot of schools have already been doing using apps like what's app and other software such as zoom to to to do classes over the internet but the government just recently announced signing a $20000000.00 contract with several different television broadcasters here in mexico to broadcast learning programs again placing a lot of their bets on on television as you can imagine this is sparked a lot of criticism especially from folks who say that not enough people have access
6:04 pm
to to a t.v. or too many children in one home for one television set or not enough access to education 4 out of 10 homes lack internet access here in mexico so there are a lot of obstacles that the government still hasn't announced how exactly they're going to be fixing that but for poor and rural communities indigenous communities here in mexico there has been announcement that educational programs will be done over the radio again there was this promise from the government not to leave any children behind but there's also this expectation almost in an inevitable expectation that many children will simply lose the school year others will drop out adding to a dropout rate which otherwise has been in decline here in mexico for the last 10 years adrian i was irresponsible reporting live from mexico city many well many thanks indeed. in iran schools have reopened to 15000000 students after 7 months of coronavirus and forced closure iran is the worst hit country in the

middle east now to syria's assad big reports now from tehran. temperature checks a disinfectant tunnel. and social distancing is what mit students returning to school into iran journalists were invited to this school to see iran's safety measures president hasn't rouhani addressed the flag waving children by a video link. today the education starts it means education doesn't shut down even under the toughest conditions it is the teacher's responsibility to remove anxiety from the minds of students and their families anxiety will prevent students from beginning the educational here. some in the country have questioned the government's handling of the pandemic that wrong is still considered under iran's red zone for krone virus infections and despite measures in place in schools like this one some parents are still reluctant to send their children back to school i make out and tell you cast aside i have lots of stress and i'm worried one of my sons allergies and i disagree with him attending school in this situation i think i
6:06 pm
won't let him go to school because his health is a priority over education their kids they touch everything and then they touch their faces the children however seemed less concerned. i think it's good to come to school with stayed at home for nearly half the year and studied online yes there are concerns about the virus at school but we should just observe the health protocols plus times have been reduced to 35 minutes students attend on alternate days and an online learning occasion has been introduced the education minister to try to reassure parents. the health of students is our most important concern we don't want to put students' health at risk we trust the health ministries have great experience fighting the virus we hope families also trust us and we'll be sure that the education sector is following health protocols but. more than 100 people a day a dying from the corona virus in iran and about 2000 are becoming infected the
6:07 pm
government may want to return to normality but it's still luck it has a grip of the spread of the virus said big al-jazeera the iran iraq has warned that its hospitals may lose control of the country's outbreak within days countries reported more than 5000 total infections the health ministry has put down this week spiking cases to people attending large gatherings without wearing masks or observing social distancing al-jazeera story is live for us now in baghdad there are some new figures just out doors which indicate that the number of new infections may be slowing. well there is a slight decrease over the past 24 hours as opposed to the numbers that came out on friday just over 4600 new confirmed cases across the country and 63 people have died in the past 24 hours as a result of code related issues but these figures are an indication that the shura
6:08 pm
gatherings which took place on august 30th in the city of karbala in southern iraq which commemorates the death of among hossein who is the grandson of the late prophet is the one of the main reasons that we're seeing such a spike in these numbers over the past 48 hours across the country does the nearly 10000 new infections and those numbers are something this country has not seen just to give you an idea in neighboring iran is double the size of population of iraq and they have half the number of confirmed cases we also understand that these figures that we receive on a daily basis are not true indication of the actual number of people that are confirmed to have the virus because many people don't get tested or they are too afraid to go to hospitals many of the facilities and medical facilities in the country are not equipped to deal with the number of people that they should be dealing with on a daily basis the just the numbers we've seen of people who have contracts
6:09 pm
it cold in 1000 boe go into a medical facility in baghdad alone over the past 48 hours has been just around 370 so this shows us that they really a number of people we've spoken to as well say even if they do get sick they do not seek medical help so what's the government doing to head off a loss of control. well there's been a number of measures put into place one of them is a partial curfew across the country from 10 pm to 5 am there's also a strict rules or regulations about government employees working from home there's only about 25 percent of employees going into office says there's also a law that you need to wear a mask in public spaces but the issue is it's not being fully a forced so many people are not abiding by the guidelines that have been set out by their health authorities in this country and that is one of the main concerns there's also daily protests ongoing about the lack of the points in the country and
6:10 pm
the people that we've spoken to among those protesters say that not having money is more of an issue for them than it catching cold with $1000.00 so there are many challenges facing the government here and the wall the health organization has said that the country must try to control the spread of this virus before it gets out of control though so many thanks did i was there is still such a priority reporting live from baghdad sudan's government has declared a 3 month state of emergency after weeks of flooding that have led to the deaths of nearly 100 people the nile's risen to levels not seen in a century but overall rates of flooding and rain exceed record set in the 1940 s. and 198100000 homes have been badly damaged or of collapsed whole 4000000 people have been affected. by that have gotten our power uprooted equipment is out of order and there's a high possibility they won't operate again needless to say residents are all

declare a climate an ecological emergency and to take immediate action to address climate change. and speak to a chink over from the grantham research institute on climate change and the environment at the london school of economics good to have you with us at to what extent has the pandemic do rail the fight against climate change. well of course and the conditions of global pandemic scott women's' how to deal with more immediate priorities such as protecting human life and probably how and i think as we started building back from the front they make it's very important that climate change doesn't sleep from the priority you know the leaders and i think this is what some of this actions that we're seeing that on the wall that trying to deliver this message who are they delivering this message to the world in general all the specific countries that need to do much more on the climate
6:14 pm
action but others. well i think in the context of that it building from call of it i think all leaders should really take this as an opportunity to i think what measures to support the economists and the conditions when we're facing a global recession that you've bought for jack to bring it konami growth creates new jobs but also help us out the climate crisis and there are a number of measures that can be taking in that respect so i think this message is very relevant to a number of countries but then particularly assuming all that i just some leaders picking it up in europe the european union is looking at the at the package of measures to build the european economy and also to help but as climate change i think germany and france also looking to take some action and have already made
6:15 pm
some announcements and i can give us some examples also for what the u.k. government is doing in this respect. ok i mean if you can be very brief give us give us some very quick examples because there's another question i want to ask. so for example in the u.k. the government has announced that from the end of september all households can imply foregrounds the homes program where the governments would provide of the votes are for and the to do efficiency improvements to homes for example. introduce. insulation to walls to make their houses more efficient for a roof and so lation installing double glazing and so this kinds of measures what how a family is spending less on that and that it should be all over the long term to be more comfortable in their homes but also how could it new jobs in the construction industry and so that's the u.k. you talked about germany and france is that the motivation of the motivation rather
6:16 pm
to make it a political priority in places like china or the u.s. . well i think u.s. at the moment is the country that doesn't didn't answer gets a lot of good in stimulus measures and that it covered a package so i think it definitely should be a priority and i think in the context of the elections and they ongoing debate this with been important issue i think china. has has put its out attention so stimulating it in your bill and that is over the past yes and we hope that as they develop that a confident package just this what this would be a priority as well for them really good to talk to dr many thanks indeed a leader of a chunk over the from the london school of economics. this is the nissan still to come on the program. rescuers in beirut still holding out hope of

6:22 pm
states it was the focus of a discussion on a daily call in political program on one of the public affairs channels here in the united states and it seems just about everyone has an opinion on what the president has said during his tenure and who are the most part a lot of the commentary has been very negative there are some who are supporting the president but they are in essence being drowned out by those who say they are just by what the president reportedly said or had rather than many thanks indeed as much as it is rosalynn jordan live for us in virginia. police in portland have broken up protests as the west coast city marks 100 straight nights of demonstrations over this weekend that will submit arrests it's been going on since the death of george floyd in police custody in may president trump dispatched federal agents to portland in july saying the local authorities
