a growing world hunger crisis. israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu misses a deadline to form a government giving his opponents the chance to end his political dominance. with all the day sports news cricket australia working with the indian premier league organizers to repatriate all their players and officials out of india as soon as possible. so india's coronavirus crisis is now affecting the 1st face to face meeting in 2 years of foreign ministers from the world's wealthiest industrialized nations 2 of india's diplomats suppose it's a delegation is taking part in the g. 7 summit in london from their hotel rooms and this is happening as pressure mounts on prime minister remotely to impose a national looked up a quarter of all cope with 19 deaths in the world last week were in india as were

almost half the new cases will get an update from elizabeth per annum in new delhi shortly but 1st let's cross over to need barker's outside the g 7 venue in london and neither yes this is a supposedly a return to in person diplomacy but it certainly hasn't worked out that way for the indian team. this is billed with much fanfare as a return to face to face or at least muscle mass diplomacy after a 2 year hiatus but now the delicate decision to go ahead with this significant not back we've learned that 2 of the delegates from the indian team have tested positive for covert 19 and as a result the entire indian team of had to as a matter of abundant caution said the indian 5. foreign minister continue to take part where mostly. this obviously raises big questions about the kind of protocols that have been in place here according to net it was our way the vaccines minister

who was question building issue earlier this morning he said that day the testing was in place that all the protocols when it comes to the isolating of delegates or journalists or even security here were in place but clearly something has gone quite critically wrong here india is a member of the g 7 was a prominent invited guest on the sidelines we know that senior officials have been holding talks with the likes of dominate rob and the u.s. secretary of state blinken as well it doug does beg the question. walt's point of contact tracing is going on behind the scenes right now to establish who these delegates may have been in contact with what precautions now need to be taken to ensure that the other cases are coded one scene the other positive test results do not suddenly start popping up over the next couple days or a day thanks to the bulk of the in london let's now see what the situation is on the ground we can speak to her on the new delhi still is the situation the across

the country worsens and the big issue is that evolves to supplies yes absolutely next it's been. over a week well over a week now when delhi the capital flagged the critical shortages of oxygen since then we have heard about these all over the country and despite that we are still seeing people lose their lives code patients dying after their oxygen supply ran out the latest is 5 patients died in the state of and this is why the indian army is now setting up oxygen generation plants in a number of hospitals that began here in delhi in one of india's largest public hospitals and setting them up in delhi in the neighboring state of haiti and in this week it's using technology that's based on. technology that it uses in its fighter jets and says that it's establishing $570.00 plants all over the country in

the next 3 months but despite all of these efforts and or that international aid arriving we are having calls for help from hospitals across the country the southern city of benghazi is the latest hospitals there saying they're having to ask patients to make other arrangements find other hospitals there are no intensive care unit beds left in that city and they haven't been for over a week and that is a similar situation and many of india says he's at the moment liz what about the vaccination campaign where where are we with. well that's not going well at all that vaccinations the number of vaccinations that are being carried out every day those have actually come down in the past week they went from around 2500000 more than 2 point $5000000.00 a day a week ago to less than $2000000.00 now they've come down around 30 percent and that happened even though the government expanded the vaccination program to allow

everyone above the age of 18 to get a vaccine but they just aren't enough the government also told states to make their own arrangements of the vaccine manufacturers who can't send them enough doses for most of them to expand the program be international aid that survive and some of that includes vaccines the russian made sputnik the vaccine is now in the country the u.s. is sending both vaccines and also the role materials needed to make them but president joe biden said that they haven't made a decision yet on india's request not just to the u.s. but to the world trade organization to remove the the patents the remove the internet intellectual property rights on vaccines during a global crisis so that india and other countries can make them at a much cheaper cost lives thing so that elizabeth new delhi let's speak no to cities are ready who's the moment you director of apollo hospitals which is the largest private sector hospital chain in india joins us now from cities already

welcome to our jazeera we're seeing drug density in the. dreadful scenes across the country what is the situation with you what are you experiencing there. you know i i do believe that the that on president in times we have never seen a pandemic of this size and scale and definitely a pandemic that that stresses the infrastructure not only in terms of bed takes their job but in terms of man far and out and the availability of critical critical of you know medicine oxygen short supply in these areas but i truly believe that this is an opportunity for india to come together to solve this crisis and we are as you know we are seeing some hope at the end of the founders of countries like the u.s. your of all have begun to support us by sending supplies beyond that didn't was the

1st time that we've seen corporates in india come forward and extended help and i think 'd of proof of this is you know early on this was about oxygen supply so if you look at oxon supply we were only up to do things $7100.00 metric tons of oxygen to be reproduced close to $11000.00 metric tons of oxygen so the issue is really not about just oxygen even though the demand has doubled it's also about it than cars so we have maybe 120-0000 cars to deliver this oxygen ok if that's the case it's a case of the health infrastructure across the country i guess isn't it because everywhere around the world is struggling isn't it but it's not something very wrong with the way health care is organized in india with this this emphasis on the private sector doesn't this just have to be completely revolutionised. no i don't think so i think

you know we've always the it was a legacy that we had even when the british were here it was about nothing to that that were handling most of the by the care so government has set up its hospitals there but you must understand that 70 percent of the health care consumed in this country is used inside or in the private sector so this is a time for the private sector and the government to work together to actually efficiently deal with this crisis but at the crisis has spiraled out of control and there's a horrible irony here that india has made many the vaccines that have been administered around the world but there's not much point in being the pharmacy of the world if you can help your own people. that's so unfortunate that that we have the of availability to manufacture but we had a large heartedness to actually export the vaccine and i think it's time for the

rest of the world also to they could 9 that india's population is just far larger and the extent of organization and political living is really where the epicenter of this you know the epidemic started whether it was bombay in maharashtra or delhi it's really it is about dick a living it is the of and i think sion and the population density that has contributed to this very difficult to immunize 1.51.5000000000 people and they do take time for that all right as it is ready we do appreciate your time joining us has a need to ready a managing director of policy spittles in china thank you. to australia where the prime minister is resisting pressure to lift a temporary ban on flights from india saying it will continue for at least another 10 days scott morrison says a strain has already begun delivering humanitarian aid to india and he wasn't concerned about the travel ban damaging relations between the 2 countries to die

now more and more people are facing acute food insecurity a new u.n. report says at least 150000000 people in 55 countries are at risk of hunger war and conflict to the main contributing factors but economic shocks exacerbated by the pandemic and climate change are also major causes yemen south sudan and parts of the kenya fast so the northern nigeria is said to be at or approaching catastrophic levels of food insecurity. as its report. it is a survivor of the war that's ravaged south sudan for years displaced many times during the conflict she now lives with her husband and 4 members of their extended family in an informal settlement in b. border tom in the volatile jungle a region they receive some food from charities and supplement that with vegetables from a small garden they tended near their makeshift shelter. and that they're going. to lie a lot on my enemies always attacking us we have really suffered

a lot we're always on the run they kidnap our people mostly women and children now our area is empty we lost our food during the floods now we face hunger i hope this will stop somewhere able to go back to normal life. but hunger is a global problem and it's growing every year a new report on food security provides grim reading 150000000 people in 55 countries are in crisis say the office the un's world food program and the food and a cutter gonna zation that's an increase of what around 20000000 people from 201-913-3000 people in brooklyn a fossil south sudan and yemen also facing a catastrophe a need a giant action to prevent widespread death and total collapse of livelihoods thousands of people are also dying of hunger in yemen south sudan the most the

nigeria the countries highlighted by the report as the was affected to a vote farm and to meet a giant food needs the world food program says $5500000000.00 will be required this year. covered 1000 has also shown the ever widening gap between the rich and the poor and how the most economically vulnerable households was thought to be the hardest hit in the food chain. who has undergone we are going to praise the war in the country the hunger in the country the food crisis is getting worse we pray to god to bring these to an end. and then we have climate change in sub-saharan africa where most of the world's food insecure leave the situation is only getting worse punishing countries that did little to cause the problem. here they don't speculate about the crisis they're suffering because of it once proud

farmers and hard as have now been reduced to depending on foreign aid how good are the welch's either. who's the senior majesty and rehabilitation officer at the f.a. or the food and agriculture organization of the united nations joins us now from rome. for that when we say the words acute food insecurity describe to us what that actually means physically to people what's think what's a living reality. yes it is very simple. these are people that we now know that you wanted terrorists the stars we believe in starving so there are people that requires external assistance whether by to go or very steadily. and so are people that are not be able to see question so they could be it could be anything from starvation to acute hunger except.

there was clearly serves variation i was really i was releasing you were you were mentioning it south sudan your man in northeastern nigeria by there are a lot of people that are all good they're not on this debate you're. quite clear on . this why do you need oh sure shelters in your back because we spoke of conflict but there's more besides that. listen didn't do a century retreat of course and we were. toxic mix between the 31 is can't be which we already mentioned the other one is the economic downturn or some of disparity fees and these here because of call it their number of people affected by wrong don't they're not substantially increased and then a 3rd one and all that. karma they're out there to start so you think is one of 3 create a problem comp is the most important one because in a company situation very often it is impossible to access the population so that is

that is what really concerns you right there and you're right there are those. who reach the most affected nation because of course. it is not always going to be a case of just managing these crises because as long as there is conflict as long as there is climate disruption and so forth hunger is never far behind. for sure for sure and we said that that is not peace with our current we doubtless want security enough to see the sort the issues of concrete east fundamental and and and desist we address it so it's much beyond the capacity let's say offer of a u.n. agency that these we. will see starts all the parties and for peace we also need to look at a much longer term solution. and then me if you want i was also sure that there are some inequalities in the different counties that needs to get very gentle as you

address these are. the problem we persist and one thing that caught my eye which was kind of is an example of the liver reality of this the horror of this that 75000000 children under 5 have stunted growth what does that mean what does that mean for their futures. well you need you know standard groups at least. it's quite appalling in either sense that you know it's always the children your capacity even to learn at school has diminished or. unfortunately future of this you worry you're a mark for their child who was they would not perform at school they would look at these people before it's really a problem for the future yet demonstrate even if you live through this the prospects are still challenging to say the least we appreciate that thanks very much a look are also there from the un's affair thank you very much for you well dressed

. israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu has run out of time to form a new government putting his political future in question netanyahu has been meeting opposition party leaders in an attempt to secure enough votes to form a coalition president riven rivlin will now decide what to do next israel has gone through 4 inconclusive elections in the past 2 years let's speak now to harry falls it is live for us in western us i'm so sorry the deadline has expired but that doesn't mean that netanyahu is out of contentions. absolutely not and he's shown in 2 of the previous 3 elections as well that even after the mandate expired he's maintained his hold on the prime ministerial office if not a fully functioning coalition government since then and so what has happened is again he ran out of time to be the person in charge of trying to put a coalition government together at least in public and now it's up to the present riven rivlin to decide who next gets the 4 week opportunity to do so he has 3

options you can either give it to the leader of the opposition party yeah i like peter was has the next most number of seats in the israeli parliament the knesset he can give it to the right wing leader naftali bennett who's been offered 1st go and prime minister by both. paid and by netanyahu if he joins them in coalition or he could just hand it back to the israeli parliament the knesset and give them 3 weeks to try and come up with something or else there would be an automatic 5th election triggered so far even has met both of these 2 contenders. pete and bennett it's likely that he will give it to but there is a huge amount of pressure that netanyahu is piling on his fellow right wing naftali bennett not to join lapidus part of the so-called change bloc saying that if he comes on board with netanyahu then there is no question that he can get a couple of extra members of the knesset to come across defect from their parties

as well and give them the 61 seats required for a majority right wing coalition government so essentially he's saying either do this or we publicly blame you as a right winger for failing to get a right wing government together it shows also how desperate netanyahu is that he's willing to give someone else the chance to go 1st however there is still have the potential for this change bloc to come together neither at the moment the right wing nor this agglomeration of parties really traversing the entire political spectrum try. to get netanyahu out neither of them has the numbers to get a coalition on their own and there are real problems with trying to convince everyone to get the support from outside of that coalition from the palestinian israeli parties for example for a functioning government to take place so we still have these mathematical problems to overcome netanyahu is not out of the game yet or her thinks that her forces

western israeli forces have attacked to demonstrators in occupied east jerusalem and stopped other protesters from entering the area they were seen forcibly detaining people in the occupied shaken jarrett neighborhood and throwing protesters to the ground as anger over a court ruling forcing several palestinian families to leave the neighborhood despite them having lived there for decades was tough but good she is the secretary general of the palestinian national initiative and he says israel is committing a crime against humanity. what's happening now in jerusalem is very dangerous because actually this is a process of ethnic cleansing that the israeli army and the israeli government is conducting in their lap but also in other parts of the. practical. work right i guess population of humans on this act of ethnic cleansing because now think of an affection or a racist policy. that is very nice following the system of.

consolidated not funded jerusalem. and that it is a general now under way for us to this is the popular nonviolent resistance which is happening now and sell in shares arac in particular but on oprah he was a little this number. actually nonviolent resistance is gone by and with. the national level. including. transferring the key source for that the national guard passionate criminal court because what we believe is that the process of criminal act here and the world community must interfere and pressure is there to stop the process of ethnic cleansing this is not a new thing but this part of our system i pick up approach that the governments have been following. that annex in jerusalem the terrain to eliminate the

palestinian. syrian state media say the country's at defenses have intercepted an israeli attack on several north western areas including the coastal city of latakia number of explosions were heard along the mediterranean coast israel has recently hit targets inside syria where iranian backed fighters are based. still ahead here on al jazeera the former police officer convicted of murdering george forward in the united states wants a new trial. to look at the songs of love and being passed from one generation to the cape verdean . baseball fans in seattle could soon be getting a crate of our us vaccinations peta we'll explain.

the border with ethiopia. semite it remembers the evening when she used to prepare coffees for her family in her hometown of ethiopia's to grade region she says when the conflicts reached she and her family sought refuge nearby but 2 months ago she left to seek refuge in sudan's guess at a state. we left off which is also a gray but when the new administration started issuing a temporary density cards it didn't bear our identity as a grey and i became uncomfortable the card identified us as an harra which we're not i felt they were raising our identity so when i got mine i used it to move to the border and then fled to come here with my unborn child leaving the rest of my family behind that new administration was put in place a month after the to great conflict began in early november between the ethiopian government and the regional to great people's liberation front or laugh more than $20000.00 refugees are now here at this reception center in castle

when the conflict began but the stories of the horrors there. was the scribes what's happening in parts of ethnic cleansing a charge to my butt if the government says it's willing to work with international experts to investigate any claims of human rights violations some refugees have been relocated from this camp to neighboring states but authorities say not all are willing to leave here. some say they won't go to the new camps despite dwindling services here they're holding on to the hope that the conflict and soon they can return home but we're producing the rainy season and this place is going to be cut off to providing them with aid will get more and more difficult summer it says even if the conflict ends she'll wait to see all those who've been identified as recognised as the grants again she says if not she'd rather her child live as a refugee in sudan but with his real ethnicity recognised him. from the sudan ethiopia border. to spray now where voters in madrid have returned the rightwing

government to power in regional elections conservative party leader isabel d s are you so defied pressure from the national government to impose capered lockdowns and kit kept open a vote saw a record turnout despite the pandemic after schapelle houses. rewarded for her defiance isabel diaz salusa leader of the rightwing popular party has won madrid's regional elections the p.p. has been in charge of spain's wealthiest region for 26 years i am pm i never got to today's a beginning of a new chapter in the history of spain because today from madrid from the starting point it will regain our pride s.n.p. mend it and in our you so defy the left wing national government a prime minister peter sanchez consistently resisted pressure to impose coppa 19 lockdowns on the w.b. by not yet she has been brave when we had to face the thing that makes she didn't hide like others did she made a stand she defended those who were unsafe also the people that had to go to work

and earn money in the end we have to go on living and that's something that i did before i think we need to enjoy life not close ourselves in our homes like the socialist want us to take to the popular party and need to win a long lvalue so here you are you still. think that she campaigned on a simple slogan freedom which appeal to those with coded fatigue simple messages tend to get very well be lectured to by. the what the popular party. which is to say very much anybody from the center right it wasn't just the right way which is not all that's a sector of the electorate. after of resoundingly defeat the leader of the left wing pajamas party public place yes says he's quitting politics altogether he resigned as deputy prime minister to stand in the madrid election. the capital has some of the loose history. actions in europe bars and restaurants have remained open despite infection rates far above the national average madrid has the highest

percentage of occupied i.c.u. beds in the country nearly 45 percent. 3 years after a corruption scandal brought down the last popular party led government it remains the 2nd largest party after the ruling socialist tuesday's victory is likely to boost the party at a national level and influence locked down rebels far beyond madrid and al jazeera . let's. go who's a spanish journalists and political commentator joins us now from madrid great to have you with us this victory to what extent do you think this will have repercussions across the broader political scene in spain at the national level. well i would say it's not automatically translate all into spanish politics for example the people's party the conservative party has got 44 percent of the vote they certainly don't have 44 percent of the vote in the whole of spain but what is

significant is the collapse of the socialist start i think. really sends a very very strong signal for what is going to happen if there is a general election because the socialist party is in power and it was the 1st political force in my treat now it's the 3rd and it has lost a 3rd of its votes and many of them actually have gone to the conservatives and not a very important development the disappearance of the centrist party citizen's party now what is important about this is that not only the party disappears but actually almost almost all of his vote goes to the conservatives it's not split between them and the socialist as you would expect so these 2 things combined i think bodes very badly for the government which also well again it's junior partner the government has had a very bad result as a radical left for the most part is ok it's not news for the central government it doesn't mean that they are going to lose power immediately not at all but it's certainly

a forwarding of things to come in to your judge say yes time when an election and yet action comes do you think there is a bill or you say herself will be in a position to one day challenge branes president the pro-science sanchez and if so how soon. i don't think so for the time being that looks unlikely it's clear that she's won this election partly because of fair or fair decision the decisions she made she has some charisma but perhaps not enough to be common and national leader and the east and not a national leader who still wants to be prime minister he will he's trying to to to let's say 2 to reinterpret this result assert big 3 for the party and not for herself for her. it's been difficult but i think he will succeed i don't think there is any challenge to the leadership of the of the people's party for the time being what implications do you think this has of the far right in space

while the far right which is the vox party had. 12 seats in the region of parliament now it has 13 so it has not had a huge success it just increased slightly its share of the vote but what is important here is that it has not lost seats because this happens in the context of a huge success of the center of the center left party the people's party which is its its main rival in terms of votes gathering so this means that the far right in spain is now gathering votes from outside the specter of the of the of the right way and he's got an influence probably in working class areas votes that traditionally would go to the abstention of the socialists so these means that yes it's it's taking a live body of its own not just assumes you've got a form of a right wing party. appreciate your perspective on this thanks very much indeed.
