a mixture of relief and disbelief as 2 weeks of lockdown lifted in rio de janeiro one of the worst coronavirus hit cities in brazil for the gist of this what we don't like the good news is that by enforcing the 14 day epidemiological period suggested by specialists plus other restrictions we managed to lower the number of people seeking the city's basic health system. yet for the past week across brazil there have been an average of 4000 deaths a day adding to a total of more than 350002nd in the world only to the united states health experts say much more needs to be done to curb the spread and. we can't sleep because we don't know full be able to attend to the patients if we will have medicines oxygen today we have them but if these cases continue growing at some point it will be chaotic there is no other way we don't sleep today's reality is that health workers don't trust chile despite

a vigorous vaccination campaign has also seen a recent surge in coverage 1000 cases coming a few weeks after restrictions were lifted to encourage tourism in the pacific resort of vineyard omar and the nearby port city of el paraiso. and we believe that this increases directly related to several factors but one of them is the holiday permits which allowed a significant number of people to travel to districts in our region in a festive spirit has periods of rest relaxation and disconnection after a very bad year you require has also extended lockdown restrictions until the end of april to contain a surge in coverage 1000 cases well here in argentina we've seen a record number of daily infections and a new set of restrictions including a nighttime curfew. that people aren't going to tolerate being locked up again like last year many people want to go out they don't want to let their children or their family go hungry they need to look for their daily bread. scenes are being applied

that many complain there are too few a new batch is a not a riding fast enough but until those vaccination programs start to take effect the only other option if overburdened health systems are to cope is to impose ever more lock down restrictions but with people angry and defiant those measures are proving to be increasingly ineffective. and their al-jazeera when osiris who upon see is an epidemiologist specializing in mortality data he says brazil is facing challenges on several fronts when it comes containing the virus. we are still seeing a high number of infections so we expect the next 2 weeks to be as hard as the week we've just been through we only expect to see a considerable decrease in number and the number of deaths in april and people are now projecting that april might have

a larger number of deaths than we've seen in march if we add up all the numbers that we had 2020 for the pandemic we are almost reaching that number for the 4th for the 1st 4 months of the endemic in 2021 in brazil and we really have the perfect storm here in brazil and we have a president that sends mixed messages that fights with governors and with mayors who are trying to enact lockdowns and containment measures or through an act that prophylactic measures such as the use of masks we also have had a very slow rollout of facts eans brazil is just now getting something around 10 percent of people being facts unaided with the 1st dose but most of the vaccines that we have here require 2 doses we also have a situation where the fight that the president is fighting on the national battleground is also political he is at odds with congress and with the judiciary especially the supreme court just this week an investigation led by the congress

has been authorized by the supreme court so it remains to be seen whether that will pressure the president into acting more on firmly towards containing the pen demming now some of the world's poorest countries may have to wait longer for the 2nd dose of the vaccines up to 60 countries have begun their vaccine rollout they may have to wait until june for more shots to arrive supply shortages of sunni old deliveries through the code banks program blocked the world health organization scheme is designed to give poorer nations fair access to the vaccine. hundreds of people in the remaining capital are protesting against virus measures there they've gathered outside the presidential palace in book arrest to express their anger at restrictions imposed last month these include curfews and business closures there has been a surge in infections in remaining here with some hospitals warning the health system could soon be overwhelmed for more than

rushing to impose stricter restrictions as they battle can to contain coronavirus outbreaks but brazil these easing back on lockdown measures even though it is the worst affected country in the region. the irish prime minister has warned against a spiral back after 14 police officers were injured in violence in belfast in northern ireland protesters threw petrol bombs and rammed a burning car into a police vehicle there's anger there over bricks it among other grievances to. a volcanic eruption on the caribbean island of st vincent has forced thousands of residents to flee the authorities say it could get even more explosive in the coming days and weeks. a coalition of 3 powerful armed groups and meanwhile has reportedly attacked security forces for the 1st time since a ceasefire in 2019 at least 10 officers were killed in the eastern shan state and in bargo at least 80 people are believed to have died in a crackdown by the military is tony chang. even before the sun rose the sounds of

battle raged men miles armed forces moving into the city of go an important gateway to the south behind the barricades the protesters tried to stand their ground but the military advance was fierce automatic gunfire and evidence that heavier weapons pictures posted to social media appear to show rifle launched grenades and reports that 3 of myanmar's ethnic rebel groups attacked a police station in the far eastern shan state on saturday morning unity amongst these disparate groups could be problematic for the military as it faces attacks on its outposts and civil unrest in towns and cities at a news conference the gentle spokesman said support for the protests was waning and the death toll is considerably lower than reported with an ominous warning sign i've got it if we really shoot at the protest group using automatic rifles the

$500.00 you refer to could be killed within hours. but the evidence from mandalay on saturday suggests protesters are still out in large numbers marching through the streets despite the threat of detention or worse. some have fled the cities however for the relative safety of the bases of the ethnic rebel groups along the border while the conditions may be basic the alternative could have been worse. you will need your you will need we know that if we were to get arrested the security forces would not let us live they'd kill us so we had to run away. and the steady flow of people heading towards the borders is growing as many now fear myanmar is on an unavoidable course towards civil war tony ching al jazeera. well there have been armed ethnic struggles in me and for decades but groups have acted independently until now 21 rebel organizations control about one 3rd of the country mostly on the

borders the 3 involved in the latest incident cover both sides of the country from rakhine state in the west to shan in the east 10 groups signed a cease fire with the civilian government 6 years ago but this was collapsing even before the coup on february the 1st fighting has carried on regardless in catchin state displacing 100000 people and in rakhine state 200000 people have been forced from their homes there hundreds more have been killed many of the groups were quick to condemn the coup and they're now continuing talks to form a united front against the military jointer ronan li is an expert in myanmar as ethnic divisions he says the military is facing pressure on multiple fronts. for me i think minorities the military of the country has always been the enemy that's who they have been fighting for the last many decades they blame the military for standing in the way of their aspirations for local autonomy and for stamping on any

expression of their ethnic rights or identity that what's happening now is that the military in launching the coup has managed to unify and not just the country's majority against them but also the ethnic groups and ethnic minority groups at the same time what the military would try to do in the past is strike a peace agreement with with one group while it launches an attack on the other all all cease fire agreements have now broken down within me and you've got the issue of a very strong protest movement in the center in the urban centers yank on mandalay bag-o. as we see today so for the 1st time the military is not just facing challenges from ethnic armed groups it's also facing challenges from the country's majority and this is all happening simultaneously there's a very strong civil disobedience movement in near mother's a general strike underway this is a country that's close to the point of state collapse and the message the message

to the military's clear there is no significant interest in the country that actually wants the military in charge of their own says it's begun testing a new more advanced uranium enrichment centrifuges just ahead of another round of talks in vienna the president hassan rouhani made the announcement during a virtual meeting on iran's annual nuclear technology day the country's been steadily moving away from the terms of the 2050 nuclear to you since the u.s. pulled out under donald trump the european union's been acting as a go between in the talks. and to iran he reports iran has not changed course. this is a national day of nuclear chief this day came about back in 2006 when iran managed to enrich uranium to about 3.5 percent using centrifuges made in the country now we were expecting over $130.00 announcements of new achievements over in relation to

its nuclear program now iran is using more advanced centrifuges and feeding into them but it's also began production of the 6 centrifuges that's important because under the 2015 nuclear deal iran is restricted to using older and less efficient centrifuges not these ones but also. apparently the production of the centrifuges was damaged because of apparent sabotage last summer and now iran says that they are producing this now this is all in the context of those talks that took place in vienna and did yesterday continue next week on wednesday and this is just iran showing that they will continue along this line along this path as long as those sanctions are not and. the europeans are not living up to their commitments and iran has been pretty transparent about it they've told the international atomic agency of what they've been doing and as far as iran is concerned they're within the agreement to take what they see as remedial measures but the europeans and i think this is a breach but the supreme leader said just 2 weeks ago that iran will continue down

this path as some of the other countries don't fulfill their responsibilities but it does add that extra layer of complexity to those talks because as time goes by iran continues to take steps further away from those restrictions imposed on its nuclear program as part of that 2015 nuclear deal. in iran lecture a disciplinary center in. israel wants to be heard during the u.s. negotiations with iran. israel has not realized the session it and yell of ministration that it made a mistake to end obama administration off airing all its differences with obama in the public media mr thady are one as far as giving a speech in a congress against the iranian nuclear deal that only did not work it also hurt

relationship with the united states so on the one hand we see israel is now. talking to the americans but it's doing so intensely but privately 1st and foremost . is secondly yes there are concerns of when you are not party to talks but the effect you has is that case with israel it's always more difficult to get what you want it's even more difficult i mean it's always difficult enough for parties involved in talks directly to get what they want here for israel which is not party to the talks it's even more difficult so they are you know the current israeli government through these talks putting its point across to the united states to divide it ministration with the hope that during these they were sheesh and. the result who also be suitable for israel and in their nuclear program and also all other concerns that israel has with iran 1st and foremost the new and the missile

established a platform without offending foreign ministry's through increased cooperation between our countries is cooperation is by no means a threat to any 3rd country. but tension has been rising in the black sea region in recent weeks russia is amassing troops and weapons near its western border with ukraine and the fighting in is turning ukraine between government forces and russian backed separatists and donbass has escalated russian officers have indicated moscow could intervene to help russian speaking residents and is stand ukraine if the government launches an all out operation there the other question is for usual we discussed in detail we issues of security and draw interaction patrolling dres in the black sea region it's worth noting that the regions of kiev in ankara coincide with regarding the threats themselves and the ways of responding to those threats the united states is considering sending 2 warships to the black sea region in the coming days despite do u.s.

navy routinely operating in the area this time the pentagon believes the deployment will send the message to moscow that the u.s. is watching the situation closely. turkey is in a sense to position at the moment as a nato law it is likely to support alliance in any potential crisis between ukraine and washington on one side and moscow on the other but that could provoke anger in russia a country ancora depends on for its energy needs russia and turkey have a fragile partnership in syria and libya when it comes to ukraine that through lation ship could be tested in the weeks and months ahead so now kosovo also 0 stumbles. thousands of people have joined protests against pollution in the serbian capital demonstrators blocked traffic in front of the parliament in belgrade they want stricter laws to prevent water land and air pollution by industries such as mining. the funeral for prince philip will take place in a week it will be low key in line with the wishes of the husband of queen elizabeth
