a 1000000 people dead and millions more forced to leave their homes. as military extends martial law after the bloodiest day since the coup. and support team new zealand pull off a big comeback when the americans out the defending champions are now within sight of retaining their title. spain france germany and indonesia you have joined a growing list of countries to stop using the astra zeneca corona virus vaccine but also watching growing fears of a handful of cases of adverse blood clots in people who've been given the job the world health organization has urged countries to keep vaccinating and european regulators are beginning their own investigation john mccain has the latest from berlin. this is a vaccine that divides opinion in some countries it's

a large part of the strategy to combat coated in several others it's been linked to blood clots in some patients and is now suspended from use across europe a succession of governments has called for more research to be carried out that this is your a.t.p.'s on. the decision which has been taken in conformity with our european policy is to suspend as a precaution vaccinations with the astra zeneca vaccine in the hope that we can resume quickly if the make gives a green light. in germany 2 senior ministers have acted to stop its use again as a precautionary measure meaning massive vaccination centers such as this one here at berlin's old tempelhof airport are now closed the many doses of astra zeneca vaccine within its walls are now in storage pending a decision by the european medicines agency later this week the contrast to this uncertainty in the u.k. is stark there the use of astra zeneca has been greatest and for the prime minister

there are no such doubts. we have one of the toughest and most experienced regulators in the world they see no reason at all to discontinue the back to nation program forever and they are for any of the vaccines that we're currently using either of the fact that we're currently using they believe that they are effective highly effective in driving down not just hospitalisation but but also serious disease and immortality is the nub of the issue is about the way astra zeneca interacts with a human body according to the e m a from around 5000000 doses administered to date there are reports of a few dozen patients developing blood clots with some individuals having died although as yet no link between the vaccine and their deaths has been proved for the world health organization and the e m a c the benefits of continuing to use astra zeneca as product far outweigh the

potential risks but around many european capitals there is now fresh doubt what is certain is that suspending the use of astra zeneca will slow their vaccination programs dominic cane al-jazeera perlin. astra zeneca continues to back its vaccine saying there's no evidence of an increased risk of illness or injury the company says about 17000000 people in the e.u. and u.k. have received the vaccine of those people had been 15 reported cases of deep vein thrombosis and $22.00 reports of parliamentary embolism fewer than would be expected in the community according to astra zeneca margaret harris from the world health organization said the product was an excellent vaccine and no causal relationship had been established on the use medicines regulator says there is currently no indication that vaccination has caused these conditions the vaccines benefits continue to outweigh its risks recreate as risk is over such

a for the boss alone is huge for global health he joins us live from copenhagen by scott thanks very much indeed for being with us so can you explain why so many countries have decided to suspend the astra zeneca job given what we just heard in terms of reassurance that there isn't necessarily any evidence of a link between the vaccination blood clot well i think it's gotten very political countries are starting a severe now there's no evidence. linking the backseat to the blood cost the countries are starting to fear that if causality is is determined at some point and they were the country that continued to vaccinate that would be problematic for themselves so it started with the nordic countries denmark norway iceland also the congo and thailand expanded today and yesterday in the netherlands states you ireland germany spain as we heard so once you country star who started to follow

suit you regardless of the actual evidence and in terms of the evidence base i mean from what you've seen of the of the research what's the incidence of people developing blood clots who've been vaccinated with it in comparison with the normal rate of that. it's actually lower so those are very interesting i mean people will develop that for a population of around 17000000 people vaccinated with astra zeneca the number is around 39 and one would expect some a higher number in the general population so it's there's there's a certain element of coincidence is a certain element of attention because back scenes are held to a much higher benefit risk ratio than other medicines or other medical products and all eyes are on the vaccine there's we're being hyper vigilant and once those few cases were shown in austria or other countries to precautionary measures and now we see other you countries follow suit how is it possible that it could be linked to

particular batch and some kind of defect batch that has been raised and that's being studied i think it's unlikely but that's that's the looked into and countries that are perceived vaccines from that batch have stopped using it so we hope that there's no causality but if there is and it's linked to one batch that would resolve the matter temin what's the risk with this times of people not getting a vaccine but potentially being put off getting that snape. well the short term future of pastors and of vaccine is pretty bleak right now there's a lot of concern a lot of hesitancy towards the astra zeneca vaccine right now so of course that will slow down the rollout of vaccination in general fortunately the world has other approved back scenes and in some countries those are the vaccines that are most being used like the pfizer and went down of absence but even losing a couple of weeks while the investigation is be carried out you know means millions

of people who would have been vaccinated and probably belong to the most vulnerable populations now not getting vaccinated to tell me what about the risks of that in comparison between it with getting covidien the risk of getting a blood clot as a result potentially as a result of the vaccine what would you estimate that to be so what i have to work out the numbers but right now with millions of people at risk not getting vaccinated and you know 39 cases of 37 cases of blood clots one would think that the risk of getting over it is probably much much thank you very much indeed for joining us jeffrey as rest i thank you thank you. still to come on news hour milking the land for all they can it has created a violent feud between nigeria's farmers and herdsman now the government has a plan to solve it. working from court a free man mounties former military leader known on the faces torture charges

despite survivor's tears and as for the head of well that's latics says he still hopeful that overseas fans will be allowed to attend the olympics. thousands of protesters have turned out across several rebel held city is in syria and mocking 10 years since the start of the country's civil war conflict has caused one of the world's worst humanitarian crises with more than half of syria's population displaced just as in its liberal main defiant saying that despite the years of conflict it will not give up the fight and. our aim being here is to topple the regime and to overthrow its militia which we also i'm to unite all souls to keep syria unified and united i'm sure the regime will be toppled and after 10 years we are still ongoing and we haven't stopped if it's all the free people of syria with differently toppled the regime. as long as we have the

will and as long as people from everywhere are here the regime will be toppled sooner or later we are here today to convey a message to the entire world our message is that there is no power but the power of the law and the power of the syrian. but with president assad's forces firmly in control of most of the country many people are asking if it was all worth it so hard and looks back at a decade of conflict. this is the birthplace of syria's uprising in 2011 but opposition members call this moment the end of the dream of a democratic country it's 2018 and the government has just recap. at the southern province after 7 years of resistance. i almost had a breakdown after all the sacrifices when they raised the flag we felt stabbed the town had a lot of symbolism for the revolution. it was here where the wall of fear was

broken we watched syrians turn against the police state we watched them bury their dead demonstrators who were killed by security forces. during. protests spread to other areas in homs tanks were sent to suppress the uprising. the city which became known as the capital of the revolution became a battleground. and he disliked the regime forced us to take up arms and turned the uprising into a war it was no longer possible to face guns without screens. there was a siege on the rebel stronghold after months of heavy fighting months later the opposition agreed to leave the area. and i sure was among them he says they had little choice they were trapped without basic supplies running low on ammunition

and abandoned by the world. 2 years later and after a 4 year stalemate the opposition was forced to abandon aleppo which weakened them politically. and i felt broken when i got on the bus i still think about it but the siege was unbearable people were dying either by bombs or hunger. strike still is among the millions of internally displaced syrians who live in the opposition controlled north unable and unwilling to live under syrian president bashar assad's rule but he says he fears a ceasefire agreed last year will not hold. already hundreds of thousands have been killed millions have been displaced inside and outside the country and there has been no accountability. serious conflict is entering its 2nd decade with the majority of its citizens poor and with little hope. we have been forced to give up on our dreams the international community has failed the syrian people.

there is no reconciliation there is no peace 10 years of war has divided a country and its people sent to put their beirut the un special envoy to syria says the conflict is one of the darkest chapters in recent history filled with unspeakable horrors peterson has condemned the international community's failure to help he spoke to our diplomatic editor james bass and discussed his regrets over the un's efforts has the u.n. and in particular the security council failed the people of syria yes i don't know could be a very direct and almost a year i think if you look at the 10 years. of the syrian people who want to live through this no doubt that didn't matter a community and the security council the international system has failed syria and as i told the security council in my briefing today i personally strongly

regret that to the united nations i myself am not been able to maybe a. solution really is calculated. you know sort of trapped in nearly every syrian. you've been focusing your efforts on trying to get a new constitution for syria and yet it took 18 months to get the constitutional committee together you've been working on it now with talks in geneva for 18 months 5 rounds diplomats on the security council of told me they believe it's going nowhere why are you continuing the process that's going nowhere well. i can understand the frustration you know not so much perhaps but the members on the security council the more you know the frustration that the syrian people when they see you know the lack of progress order them

a constitution is going to happen anymore and that's why after the last the 5th round that we had in your life said to the members of the committee and i also called the security council and i told the press it can't continue like this anymore you know become it was to not through started drafting a constitution to recall a new constitution i don't have to build trust among the syrians and the syrian parties and to be a doro for a broader political process law all of these ambitions have been achieved during the fire service rounds the assad government is going ahead with presidential elections soon we know what presidential elections alike in syria they will be a sham we know who's going to win what's the un's view on these elections do they should they take place and all the legitimate. elections are also mentioned in the

security council resolution $20.00 to $34.00 that the doctors in december. yes but they say that that those elections should be under u.n. supervision and they should be free and fair these ones will not you know my point is the following. this resolution is my mama always forgive us. our labor brain most early summer is thought of one man by the un to be alarmed often with these elections and therefore you know. since you are not invited to take part and it is all autumn our moment they fought for you it's important to make clear that this is these are elections they graze as part of the whole course of your book. where unicef says the lives and futures of a generation of syrian children hanging by a thread because of the civil war almost every child in the country is in need of humanitarian assistance that number has increased 20 percent in the past year

nearly 2450000 children in syria and another 750000 syrian children in neighboring countries out of school was 12000 children were killed or injured between 20112021 was 6000 some as young as 7 years old were recruited into the fighting wesco to unicef spokesperson james elder he's live from nairobi via skype thanks very much for being with us so some of the green figures for the from the last 10 years but can you tell us a little bit given that syria's been out of the the news in a way for for the last well for the last little while what the picture is for the children now in syria. you know lauren i'm 40 the picture is unbelievably after a decade is it is worse now so you have the conflict as you've just been speaking about 3 programs you now of course have code on top of that you have an economic crisis what is an economic crisis look like means that it's 2 or 3 times as expensive for a family to buy a band-aid it means more children to be married off means more children children

not doing child labor and at the same time we still see in the recruitment as you mentioned there so it's hard to imagine after a decade things got worse and yet we still see it at a moment way out little boys are watching their mothers die fathers are watching their little girls die this is a conflict that samy has no end having said that unicef refuses to accept that this is a lost generation just to syrians continue to work so hard to pace and to protect their children where you know utilizations like unicef will be with them every step of that journey and how much help business have able to provide and then how difficult is it on the ground for you it's very difficult but considerable considerable help i mean the numbers as you showed in the numbers there are immediate there is some good news there more than 3000000 kids we've reach with education 2000000 have been vaccinated against polio again another couple of 1000000 with emergency water supply so we have found ways to navigate and get to you know every inch of the

country it's not easy for all the reasons you imagine but it's what we do we're on the front lines this is what we do with generous donna support but of course what we really need is a negotiated settlement but while we wait for that these type of humanitarian support would expect kids tell me what about the education side of things i mean this is a staggering figure 2450000 children after school in syria and know what sort of things can be done to try to redress that. it's such a proud record of a country to syria had such a strong education a regulatory means mums and dads still do everything they can and so what we do is we find any way to educate a child that can be you know in a neighboring country neighboring countries that are all this the taken in so many 1000000 syrians that can be in facilities it we're starting to rebuild schools right now in areas where there is space at the same time of course we see far too many schools and hospitals attacked but we'll do anything we'll get teachers back

in that we'll train people we'll do it in refugee camps we'll do it at homes we'll find any way we can to educate children just as moms and dads who are so frequently the bedrock of making sure that kids can be educated but as you mentioned we have talking millions and millions of kids out of school and that will last beyond this conflict that's one of the reasons why unicef work so much to give kids an education with ever they might they tell us a bit about the. effects on children growing up with such a long period of civil war around them. yeah and then we talk a lot about mental health now and it's the right thing to talk about you see it so much around cover all around the world there isn't really a more stressful environment where there is the most stressful environment for a child to grow up in many of these syria inch boys and girls had to move 345 times they asked seeing the horrors that that how to explain as saying you know death and

destruction that puts an enormous emotional toll on kids that made it a puts a mental stress that takes many many years to come now again that's an area where unicef does a lot of work we have psychologists we have social workers we know again through education and trying to create any sense of normality the kids that that's one of the one of the most critical areas we have to address but again children need to the way key to the sound of goods not bombs for us to really start tackling big issues like mental health when so many millions of kids i mean we know that about 5000000 kids were born into this crisis that is cool they have not so to the norm that that enormous task we know what needs to be done we also know that we need we need paces syria james elder from unicef thank you very much indeed for taking the time to talk to us thank you 3 primary school teachers have been abducted in the north of nigeria gunmen stormed the school in kaduna state north of

generations on american soil and like so many other native americans for centuries her family has suffered the mistreatment and the neglect at the hands of the very federal agency that if confirmed hollande would now lead now if confirmed she would become the 1st native american cabinet secretary and she's used to shattering barriers she's a currently a congresswoman and the 1st among the 1st class of female native american congresswoman in the u.s. her confirmation is expected were expecting this vote to begin at any moment with all democrats likely to vote in her favor they already have the majority in the chamber and somewhere between 2 to 4 republicans will likely drawn as well which is how a procedural vote had and it up being leading up to this point. now chuck schumer who is the senate majority leader the top democrat has been in polling for

her confirmation he said earlier in the day that if confirmed elevating holland to this leadership it would be a reset in the relationship he said between the federal government and native american tribes a reset the relationship of mutual respect and cooperation which of the key issues show face as secretary of the interior. that's right of course there are these tangible issues too that would be sitting on our desk on day one top of mind is climate change we know of joe biden's ambitious policy goals there and holland built a name for herself she rose in prominence as a politician 1st by her environmental activism she in fact is the co-sponsor of the green new deal legislation in the house and she has said that she wholeheartedly opposes fracking and drilling on federal yellow own lands now that of course had

republicans worried and she tamp down some of that rhetoric during her confirmation hearing in february in which she said that there was no question that she did see a role for fossil fuel in the american economy for years to come now in order to win over republicans she also refused to give her personal opinion on fossil fuels but says she would implement the biden agenda that's just climate change of course she has also be responsible for the well being of some $1900000.00 federal tribal members lauren and among those groups the poverty rate is double that of the general population not to mention holland would also be overseen some 2000000 square kilometers of federal lands how does your question thank you very much indeed an interim unity government has been sworn in in libya it was approved last week in a u.n.
