israel for this attack in a tense what's being said. well the foreign ministry spokesman has just been speaking and what he said is that he was glad that there were no injuries or environmental. environmental disaster but he said it could have been a disaster he blamed israel is against iran's nuclear program and if this attack was an attempt to limit iran's capabilities then iran is claiming that the centrifuges that were damaged the older generation the one and they would be replaced with a more advanced. so yes iran is blaming israel but there is a lot of anger here at the moment because seems that israel has managed to infiltrate iran and managed to carry out attacks act well if i take you back to last year november iran's lead scientist most and factors are there was that they did in broad daylight just outside of the one and some of the same plants than the

leverage in those negotiations but it also does complicate matters because israel has been very. about the opposition for sanctions being lifted against and also against the opposition to the 2015 nuclear deal but also it complicates matters inside the country there are people saying that these negotiations are pointless iran should take a step back and look elsewhere in terms of their relationships and just work on the assumption that sanctions will never be lifted and they should concentrate on making this country stronger. very latest there from tehran thanks. voters in ecuador have rejected a leftist revolutionary and chosen conservative banker. to be their next president with most of the ballots counted in a runoff so took nearly 53 percent of the vote a chorus andre's a rouse who admitted defeat got 47 percent and america has to listen in on reports

situation across this vast country. well for the past 6 days the cases have been there have been a record number of cases every day and more than 100000 possible days with nearly 170000 cases on sunday and so one week ago the government sent a medical team to the worst affected states maharashtra and to 2 other states punjab and shut the where the death rate was very very hard to try and figure out why the situation. was it's what it was in maharashtra and also in punjab and chuck this guy the medical teams have said that in all of the states that had 19 appropriate behavior isn't being followed that the containment measures on top to mold that testing capacity is overwhelmed that worryingly in maharashtra are there enough health workers to do it with the at least 60000 cases

a day that the state has recording that there isn't enough oxygen supply and that ventilation is malfunctioning over the past few days and we have started to see because india has a very large number of people who work in different states to where they're from starting to leave the capital they are also starting to leave india's capital delhi because they're afraid that they're going to lose their jobs and that public transport will close. which is home to more than 125000000 people is considering a complete lockdown there are night to fuse in place and many cities around the country new restrictions here in the capital delhi and at the same time there are shortages reports of vaccine shortages with the delhi health minister asking prime minister that in the morning at the same time to allow everyone over the to remove the age limit rather because at the moment it's only people over 45 years old who can get vaccinated the delhi chief minister and others are asking the

central gaza. and to remove this age limit because what we're seeing in the 2nd wave is cases of rising much more rapidly than the 1st and a number of states need is and the country is saying that any adult who wants to get inoculated should be able to try and get on top of the rapid rise of infections in the country at the moment so we also has record number of cases and yet we're also seeing massive crowds gathering for a religious festival and very little sign of any precautions actually being taken the. religious festivals and also political gatherings of the past few months have the moment we have the world's largest gathering actually it's called the. festival and it's taking place in the town of. state and we have seen pictures of large crowds gathering on the banks of the ganges river taking it as is customary when the festival began 3 months ago the

bends organizers and police said that they had deployed thousands of officers to ensure that the project will be followed today police said that only how off the number of people who would normally attend the call made which takes place every 4 years attending this year but still that there are hundreds of thousands of people most on twitter and mosques and police have also said that they are not able to ensure that there is social distancing and again this is something that we've seen in many political gatherings including today pontoons to that in the more he himself is holding 3 election rallies in the state of west bengal as to is the chief minister of this state a month a ban a g. and a number of parties and 5 states which have elections at the moment have been doing this for the pos few months and continue to do so. ok thank you liz liz of prada reporting from new delhi. the gaza strip has been described as an open air prison
