much higher than advertising researches say that huge gaps in testing capacity that the government is now trying to close. extrapolate that across the country and the spread of corona virus appears far wider than any one thought. ah, do not come. do not come. a simple message to would be central american migrants, but we'll thought 1000000 dollars of age stop the flow. ah, i'm going to sit down to 0, live from london, also coming up. assuming good. pretty nom de la. the colonel becomes president, the man who's overthrown to leaders in 9 months promises elections as he takes

charge in molly. its program is galloping forward us morning that iran is heading towards a nuclear weapon if no deal can be made. and we go on night patrol with a french police trying to stop the growing number of people making the risky see crossing to the u. k. ah hello, in a blunt message aimed at anyone heading through central america. the u. s. vice president told gunter marlin simply do not come. come la harris is on her 1st foreign trip in office. tell us with learning the flow of migration. but the sword since she and joe biden entered the white house, immigration arrest and detention rose to nearly a 180000 in april the highest and more than 20 years. around 10 percent of those

were children who are traveling without their parents was an 80 percent of those migrants were from mexico and was referred to as the northern triangle. gotcha mala honduras, and el salvador what has correspond? kimberly, how could it in got him out of city? so kimberly, quite a simple message wasn't it is a simple message and a strong one, the by the administration and the comma harris representing us vice president here in guatemala, to meet with the president of the country. in order to address what is the problem you believe for both nations, namely the pac. but there are so many thousands of people that feel they have little hope, either fleeing from harm or to satisfy their basic needs. and both leaders pledge that they would like to try and change that because the view is, is that this is something that can be resolved, but it will take collaborative solutions. but their approaches to doing so are

somewhat different, while the guatemalan president believe it is an increase in the best men to the economic opportunity come la harris really articulated. the spirit of her message was one of addressing social needs, improving opportunities for women and girls, and giving people a sense of help. but you're right. that overarching message was certainly about making the track that it has been perceived here in central america that the buy number distractions. policies have been welcoming and she gave a very different message as she spoke to reporters. take a listen. the goal of our work is to help while i'm on the find, hope at home at the same time, i want to be clear to folks in this region who are thinking about making that dangerous track for the united states. mexico border do not come do not come. the united states will continue to enforce dialogue and secure our

border. committed other questions today about corruption. how did the vice president handle that well, certainly there was an acknowledgment of a problem that is not new and has really affected us a to the region 4 years. and that is that so often the money that is earmarked for helping the poor helping to increase economic opportunity never gets to those this is designed for. and so that is why the u. s. vice president, along with the guatemalan president pledging to create an anti corruption task force to ensure that the money that for 1000000000 that has been earmarked by the biden administration to increase economic development to give people economic opportunities. so they don't have to flee their homeland. that will actually be something that they will see and that it won't be, for example,

very large salaries to a c, e o to implement a program that gives very little to help the ordinary people in the most hard hit neighborhoods or even the rural areas of guatemala, but in addition, just not only allowing people to get to work, but also allowing them to feel safe at work. another one of the announcements that has been made has been with respect to cope with 19 and the fact that the vaccination effort here in guatemala is so far behind the united states. and so the united states continuing its global effort to share its vaccine surplus with a pledge of 500000 vaccines for guatemala, so that people actually can feel safe to go to work. but again, this is just one meeting, and this is a problem that has been in some cases, decades in the making. so it's going to take regular engagement, the vice president acknowledging that, and also visiting another country in addition to guatemala on tuesday. she'll be in mexico city to meet with the mexican leader in order to continue this conversation

. that this is a problem. all of these nations will need to solve collaboratively. kimmy, how could thank you very much indeed. was kimberly mentioned the u. s. government is trying to focus on the root causes of migration from central america, and the white house plan involves $4000000000.00 for each mach assistance, and as minor roughly reports as deserted. not everyone is convinced that for an aide is enough. the mendez family are doing chores around their home. the water for the meals are having this evening arrived directly to their home thanks to a community water project funded in part by the united states agency for international aid and development or usa id running water has been a life changing upgrade for the family. would have to come, you could call me, i think life has changed because we now have water. we still have to go all the way down to the hill collected. but all, thanks to god, we now have our own water. across guatemala,

impoverished communities have received billions of dollars in aid from the united states over the years. money aimed at improving economic conditions and discouraging migration from the country. despite these efforts, poverty has only worse and stuff in it than mingles. an expert on economic development says the solution isn't as simple as pouring more money is the problem when are they need to sell by? the truth is, the united states is the country that provides the most support to what model in the 3 countries of northern central america. the problem is that no international corporation is going to substitute the need to establish functional public institutions for the development of democracy. that is a task that is ultimately up to the guatemalan government. though some critics argue that international aid has fallen short of creating true economic stability. it doesn't mean that development projects have failed from the central water tank. 95 percent of hope in 5 different indigenous communities now have access to clean water. the hope of development workers is that projects like these can be

replicated across all of guatemala. in the village of lp santa community leaders to see the key to making international development projects like these successful is to make them sustainable. therefore, we've received training on sustainability by us a id so that people can be more autonomy because one day the donors will leave our community. now we know how to maintain a healthy water supply. us president joe biden has pledged $4000000000.00 to the government to water molla honduras, anto salvador to expand on programs like that. the sat the community water project because they are the positive impact the program is having on the health and livelihoods of residence. is clear what's uncertain is if the biden strategy will succeed, where previous plans have fallen short and create the economic conditions necessary for central america's poorest families to truly thrive? manuel drop a little al jazeera, elsie sat, guatemala man who overthrew molly's civilian government twice in less than

a year. has been sworn in those transitional president. kind of see me go to has promised to own a regional and international commitments and hold credible and transparent elections. but the security situation remains precarious. nicholas huck has more from the capital by michael. while the former president of molly is held the under house arrest, june, the leader, me going to in full military regard. yeah. it's warning as molly's new head of state in what critics call another blood outside the venue, special forces secure the area. the mood of the ceremony is somber. intense. there are no heads of state and few ambassadors, and some members of society shuns the ceremony. calling it a sham and illegitimate and go to the 1st public address. since last month's qu, he sought to unite mullins until the world presidential elections will be held. i would like to re sure the regional and international community in general, that molly will omar,

all of its commitments for and in the best interests of the nation. surely after a new prime minister was announced, migrate from the civil society movement, m 5, the west african body eco was in the african union, suspended molly after the military took over and called it for a return to a civilian lead. transition is concerned about how the instability and molly will effect the security situation for the region on groups operating from inside. molly are launching attacks and they bring new share and burkina faso where more than a 160 people were killed on saturday. it's in this building, whereas me going to was born in that in 2015 a piece of chord was signed between the molly and state and arm group. now many millions fear that the agreement is now in jeopardy, fearing the security situation of the tier rate even further grounds with $5000.00 troops in this health region, which includes news year became a foster child in multi has suspended military cooperation with

a 1000000 army armed groups will profit from this crisis in this political instability. there is a vacuum of power in an absence of the state in which armed groups will try to fill, making it difficult for the peace agreement to stand and stuff in. i go on, says envoy. good luck, jonathan is expected to meet molly's new head of state as see me going on tuesday. going to says there is an opportunity to drive molly's transition towards the aspiration of the 1000000 people. it is a promise, money and leaders has made before, but have so far not fulfilled. nicholas hawk al jazeera bumpo ah, the city state has warned that the time iran needs to develop a single nuclear weapon could shrink to weeks if no new deal is made. and anybody can says it remains unclear whether iran is ready to resume compliance with the

2015 packed it's program is galloping forward. it has lifted restraints imposed on it by the agreement, including the amount of rich material that it has. material that's now in some cases, enriched up to 20 percent and even a small amount to 60 percent. it has started to deploy more advanced centrifuges. the longer this goes on, the more their breakout time gets down, the agreement pushed it to a year or more. it's now down by publish reports to a few months at best. and if this continues, it will get down to a matter of weeks exactly what we sought to avoid and what the agreement stopped as kilometers and jordan in washington dc. tell us that the context of lincoln's warning well, this is the situation. there have been 5 rounds of talks, indirect talks, we should say, between the united states and iran, about both parties coming back into full compliance with the iran nuclear deal that

was signed back in 2015. of course. as we all know, the trumpet, ministration pulled out of the deal, said that it was going to negotiate a better deal. never did any such thing. but in that time, ron, which had said it would continue to meet its commitment slowly, has been breaking its promises. and so we have seen a report from the international atomic energy administration that iran has been trying to enrich more uranium has been trying to build more centrifuges and other pieces of equipment in order to create the material that could be used in nuclear warheads. that is something which the united states does not want to see done. however, even though there have been 5 rounds of indirect talks, the u. s. is refusing to give in to iran main demand, which is that it lift all of the sanctions that were re imposed by the trumpet

ministration. because those sanctions are having an economic impact on the iranian economy. however, the u. s. says that iran needs to actually stop what it's doing and be willing to be subject to more more detailed international scrutiny of its behavior and ultimately give up its nuclear ambitions. we expect there will be more rounds of discussions in the coming weeks in geneva, switzerland. but so far, those talks have not been announced. rose in jordan. thank you very much. indeed. the british prime minister bars johnson and french president emanuel mack whole have discussed the issue of migrants crossing the channel into the u. k. one of those who died making the crossing was 18 months old in iran injured police in norway identified him on monday after his body washed off on the norwegian coast last year. the total died along with his kurdish radian family when the boat sank in the channel while trying to reach britain in october. when she made the risky

trip, say they're looking for a better life and they have no choice but to try. but france and britain are working together to discourage the treacherous journey. natasha butler reports from kelly french police officers patrol of b. j night near kelly on a mission to prevent migrants and refugees from trying to cross the english channel to reach the u. k. by boat, they've crossed the mediterranean and survived many danger. so when they arrive here and see the last 30 or so kilometers, seems like nothing. people, smugglers charge migrants thousands of dollars for a place on a boat. they often use old bunkers like this one to hide material. they've said we've found both and life jackets here in the past. and what happens is the migrants weight and the dooms over there, the smugglers retrieve the material and they all go out to be. they were nearly $10000.00 attempted crossings last year. at least 6 people died. police have bolstered security along the coast of britain,

helping to fund patrols that now take place around the clock with some offices on motor bikes, stuff in them and get us in. it's a recent phenomenon, it's been on the rise since 2019 because security has been tightened on ferries and in the ports. it's much harder to reach the u. k. by classic means and migrants and now trying to log on inflatable boats from hey, you can just about say the purchase coast line through the hays. it is less than 40 kilometers away. and for the migrants and refugees that are trying to cross the english channel, the goal isn't necessarily to reach the land, but the n c u. k. waters, about half way. because at that point they have effectively reached britain. many of the migrants from eritrea, su, dawn, iraq or afghanistan stuck in squalid conditions in cali. some say that the police harassed them. we saw officers clear hundreds of people from a camp. this group of young afghans say that their risk of both crossing for a decent life most say they have friends or family in england. well out there much

go to a lot of i have one friend who made it by see we have to take a risk by bullying scared or not. there's no choice. we have to make it god, but i don't care about the risk because i lifting sure. enough sounds and now it's dangerous to stay here for exits in the panoramic, haven't dissuaded some from trying to reach person or and to dreams of the thought of safety. the many take for granted. so some people continue to risk their life for opportunities. they believe lie on the horizon. natasha butler al jazeera kelly . so head on 0. a photo finish and peruse election sees the 2 candidates for president separated by just the vote. and a fronting hunt for survivors and focused on where a train condition has killed 50 people. ah

hello su. we've had some rock and storms for central areas of europe spreading into the bulk. and so i want to show the scene into croatia, eastern creation, and just the torrent of water here, mixed them with some debris. it flooded out about 30 homes in the village there. so we look where the energy is on tuesday. we can see a lot of rain filling in through areas of germany, switzerland right through into italy. and that rain that we had through the balkans is starting to push further east to the black sea region. we're gonna get swipe with some rain for ukraine and russia as while in the days to come. you know, we do have smooth sailing for the berry and peninsula we've got spells of sunshine madrid. this is a temperature that you would typically see in july. so you're about a month early here with the high of $33.00 degrees. take it to the mediterranean, and we have seen some activity toward the north of fries that's now spilling into turkey. we're not going to get a whole lot of brain,

but it's going to introduce more cloud cover for is symbol slight chance of a shower or even a thunderstorm as well. across north africa, we do have our heavy rains as we check out the gulf of guinea, but particularly through southern areas of nigeria and pretty much from abidjan rate through to sierra leone. on tuesday, the most people will never know what's beyond these doors. the deafening silence of 100000 for how it feels to touch danger every day. most people will never know what it's like to work with. every breath is precious, with fear is not an option. but when most people oh

i want to talk stories on algebra, us vice president, come on. the harris is used to a 1st foreign trip in office to guatemala torn migrants not to attempt to reach the us. let me go through molly's civilian government. twice in less than a year has been sworn in as transitional president and your secretary of state antony lincoln says, the wrongs nuclear program is galloping forward. peruse presidential election is on a knife edge around 93 percent of balance of been counted, showing former teacher pedro castillo just ahead with 50 point one percent of the

vote. but con, conservative politician k kofuji murray is just behind him with around 49.9 percent . my own sanchez is in the capital lima, mariana. it's quite like quite close to cool, isn't it? what are the projections it's, it's very dramatic again, and it's changes by the our lauren, we are seeing dr. just about an hour and a half ago of mineral casteel was leading 552000 just over 52000 votes. and now he's leading by 73000 volts just over that he is. the trend right now is a paragraph to use, gaining and gaining track, it reflect what iep. so the poster itself has said last night that it's in the 5 count, based on the ballots. they gave me it august, the u. a when by between 50.2 percent for him and 49.8 for eco 40,

marty. the trend is for you to continue going up and k got going down this election will be, is most likely defined by the rural vote and the vote from abroad abroad. if we understand by what analysts are saying is the 2 thirds of the vote abroad may favor peak of humanity, but that will not be enough to counter the miss. i'm 3 percent of the rural boat that still needs to be counted on. it's slowly coming in, but it is much larger than the vote from abroad. so the trend right now is for gosti, your to still stay ahead. of many of us are already saying that it is not whether castillo or kate goes to mighty will win or but a by how much. however,

having said this is a very, very dark moment for kiko. for monday she hasn't appeared, she hasn't said anything from she's in her home. the people in back of your camp are celebrating their dancing at the headquarters, but kick off with the muddy. it is a very dark moment right now because the, the results are not finished, but it looks like another groundhog day for her is. this is the 3rd time she runs for the presidency. and 5 years ago she lost 2 bit above local, chines, before only 42000 votes. lauren and how caribbean jordan re previous reacting to all this well, i think that's where people are very anxious, very nervous about what is happening. we are seeing that some businesses have put it would shooting in their windows, thinking perhaps that there will be violence if there is no basis,

no reason to do that. but some people are nervous and also the, the must stock exchange. how fallen in the mining stock specifically have lost $1010.00 points, which is very significant for per rule, which is a mining country. so there is a lot of on friday we'll, we'll see what happens in the next few hours and see if we will have the final result today. arianna sanchez, thank you very much. 2 trains have collided in southern pakistan since province can at least 51 people. dozens were injured and trapped in the wreckage. alex, your brian reports heavy machinery work to lift the mangled wreckage at the 2 trains and cast a path to rescue survivors. cruise toil in the blazing summer heat, offering any support they can to those still track the

not just thailand. and before this, the firm had no experience manufacturing a vaccine. in order to the philippines has already been delayed and reduced, the government says they don't have a target number for this initial stage of the mass vaccine rollout, but they are aiming for 70 percent of the population. by the end of the year. we will try to give out as many vaccines as we can for these vaccine rollout. new vaccine batches will be delivered every few days. but one goal that has been announced 100000000 jobs this year. and he hope of reaching that target hinges on a reliable and steady source of vaccines, which is not yet happening. that the main opposition figure has been calling for more transparency in the vaccine plan. some of his past comments about the king owned cl bio science known as s b s lead to charges of royal defamation. if you look back, what would happened? here? there is no type of a man astrazeneca n s b s. do. i believe that we would have got more vaccines
