an urgent investigation israeli jews continue to be allowed into the alex the most compound, despite warnings, the controversial tours or undermining of fragile c spy. and the constitutional crisis in some over the winter of last month's election is locked out of the parliament as the long time leader claims he is still in charge. i mean molly to unanswered. she has appeared in court the 1st time since the qu, in february, speaking through her lawyer, she said her national leak for democracy party would quotes continue to exist as long as people exist and lawyers were able to meets every about 30 minutes and said she appeared healthy sushi faces charges of incitement to sedition, violating state secrets and other offences. she has been under house arrest since her government was overthrown by the military june. on february,

10:03 am
she's already facing several charges including violating a state secrets law and 2 more absurd, one of them being in possession of unregistered walkie talkies. now, after the remark that she said about her party, the national league for democracy existing for as long as people exist, i think this gives quite a bit of an indication as to her frame of mind. remember, we've not seen or heard from her since she was detained on the 1st of february. and i think from that remark we can, how she's quite, she's unbowed by the charges that she's facing by the fact that she's been under house arrest for 4 months now. # and also remember this here, disappearance of her in public comes just a few days after the chief of the new gentle appointed election commission said her party, the national lead for democracy, which 182 percent of elected seats in last year's election would be dissolved and clearly on san sushi is making that remark about her party
10:04 am

clashes we have is in the east, in front of young law and also in other parts which have been relatively peaceful in the past. and the latest report we have is fact anti june to fighters managed to take over a police station and even capture several members of the security forces. so this is a source of resistance that the printer is facing from the protesters, protesting in towns and cities of young. and it's now moved into some sort of armed resistance by the people who are arming themselves, sometimes with homemade weapons to go up against the june test. so clearly, not all is normal in ya not. and it's going to take a long time before it returns to normal, but not however, seeing any form of any signal from the type that it's going to engage in any sort of compromise with the people or back down. ok, so anything storm, clearly the live 1st in color you need is

10:16 am
days, the only one good thing that is going to help with the firefight, there is a light, wind and high humidity. you think the higher the humidity, the less dry, the air is ok off to north africa right now. and you know, some of that, whether that was in spain, we could see it's lumped into northern areas of algeria, where we have had some pretty major flooding in the past. otherwise we've got a high of 35 degrees in cairo on monday. the frank assessments question, but the government in 11 exactly have and what major taking situation might not be just again informed opinions is the us with thinking military positioning them. and it was just simply of reorganizing military. this is a message to the region that the united states is rethinking its military foster in depth analysis of the days global headlines inside story on our jazeera

10:19 am
that's right. as you mentioned, only the 3rd country to cross the 300000 that total off the united states and brazil and all independent health experts will say that that is a huge on the count for a number of reasons. including the fact that the official death toll only takes into consideration people who are dying in hospitals. and most indians don't die in hospitals. and only around 20 to the fenton death. medically certified the deaths have remained very high. but the good news is that cases are coming down and they coming down to the level of testing remaining the same, the best remain high because it takes around 2 weeks to follow keisha that was around 2 weeks ago. that and deal with recording. it's highest numbers of cases, you know, more than 400000. they have come down to the official told to around 220001
10:20 am
sunday. the cases are coming down so much that danny's leader has said that they will begin to ease restrictions from this next week. but the situation does remain bad and some parts of the country, the southern states of thumb and not as the was effected. and so they're going into a complete not down on monday. they do in many other states in the country have, which is the toughest restrictions in place to bring the number of cases down. and what's the state. so when it comes to the vaccination campaign lives and federally is the national government still saying we're doing the best job we can possibly do that is what they're saying. but that's not being reflected at all in the vaccination drive and what the focus shifting, you know, with the case is coming down and we're seeing the pressure on the hospitals ease the focus has shifted to the vaccination program, which is so important. vaccination,
10:21 am
a big part of the population to reduce the impact of a possible 3rd way, but they just aren't enough doses. the government expanded the vaccination program to include everyone above the age of 18 from may, but because they weren't enough daughters, they told states to make their own agreements own arrangements with manufacturers. both indian and foreign a number of states have been trying to do so. and the state of pun, job, which is one of the worst effected has said that madonna has come back to them and said that they're only going to make deals with the central government. but it's a central government. it's asking states to make its own arrangements. so the number of vaccinations over the past month have fallen by 50 percent from a peak of more than 4000000 and april to less than 2000000 now. and health experts say that making arrangement for vaccines that has to be done by the central government. and also that they have to ramp up the local production given india has the capacity, the world's largest vaccine manufacturer. and it's
