be much higher than advertised 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 anyone thought. the news on a mission to unite world leaders on current a virus, joe biden had to europe for his 1st foreign trip as us president ah walter. and i'll just like for my headquarters, i'm very and obligate. also ahead a change of context, talk to versus about implode by donald trump on the popular chinese finding

a way out. the difficulty is confronting processors as they escape violence and killings in me and mar for the military general. like we are, we will be a criminal even if we say of the child who phone and a warning that a cobra 1980 could prove catastrophic for a struggling health. ah . hello, thanks for joining us, jo biden's, due to arrive in the u. k. within 4 hours on his 1st overseas trip as us president, and he's planning to deliver a strong message on corona virus. his 8 day visit includes nato and g 7 summit's on talk to rushes, was reputed in switzerland. it's a chance for biden to show the u. s. values, its partners and allies after 4 rocky years under donald trump. allen fisher reports from washington, d. c. job biden's firstborn serve as president markson you phase in the corona,

virus pandemic. and us relations with the rest of the world. after a series of virtual meetings, the heads of the leading 7 global economies will meet face to face in the u. k. and this time, there will be a us president who has left deliberately disruptive donald trump repeatedly confronted otherwise, leaders of a trade climate change and even the prospect of bringing russia but into the g 7 group. what happened under the trump administration is that it really shook a lot of countries. views of the united states as a partner, as an ally and part of biden's job is trying to restore those ties, restore that image of the united states in the eyes of those countries. president biden will also meet with nato leaders and aligns donald trump talked about leaving . the argued he was ready to push aside traditions and fellow leaders to deliver on his agenda. trav spent 4 years tearing down nato criticizing. other countries in

europe suggesting the united states would be better off without it, why are we tied down here, et cetera, etc. and so i think biden sees this as an early opportunity and an early public opportunity to demonstrate his personal diplomatic skills. the trump presidency questions challenged and up ended. many traditional american political and military positions. joe biden might be able to smooth over the cracks, but he can't guarantee that things will be that way after the next election. that relationships that were taken for granted will continue as they always have. biden's biggest challenge will be his summit with russian president vladimir putin . a man he suggested, is a killer, a man. he believe that behind recent cyber attacks on the us, a man who says america should prepare for some uncomfortable truths at the summit. there are no illusions about the state of the us, russia relationships. so the number one priority will be to these, put this on a stable and predictable track. need to show that there are real costs and that

this is an administration that will stand up to russia's d, stabilizing behavior, or the leaders hope they're gathering. we'll send a message, things are getting back to normal. your bike believes he has to send the same message after 4 years of donald trump. they're going to talk about the economy in how corporate is impact of the economy and how they can recover for that. but also vaccines are betty key to the discussions, both with the g 7 and the e u as well. and well joe biden was leaving and he said they wanted to show china and russia that the u. g 7 is very much in that the difficulty is that there are no when it comes to vaccines. joe biden has said, for example, that he wants to see the pocket lifted, so that total countries can afford to start a vaccination program. you says that's simply not feasible because it would take months if not years to get those back. seen up and running, that you're biting. this talks about 25000000 doses being made available to poorer countries by the end of the month with perhaps 80000000. if they can get their numbers up and they're to be annoying going program. so the e u,

but particularly the g 7 will be talking about how they can help tutor country as one democratic congressman said if there is a fleet up in cove it somewhere in the world, that means that there is a threat across the entire globe. so everyone sees the importance of doing this, the approach is maybe different. one thing that this white house is keen to say is that there will be cooperation between the leaders in the g 7. and also when you're buying meets with you, because that's what joe biden is about. it won't be about confrontation for confrontation sake. these will be a different kind of summit. louis president joe biden says he will revoke and executive order that sought to ban the popular chinese own apps, take talk and we chat. biden's administration says it will conduct its own review of several foreign controlled apps and see if they posed a security risk to americans. previous president, donald trump issued a series of orders over concerns on how us data was being collected from its users

. rosalind jordan has more from washington d. c. while this was signaled back in february, when the administration 1st indicated that it was not going to try to pressure the sale of tick, talk to while u. s. companies or u. s. owners, instead of having it owned by the chinese, that is what the previous administration had wanted. this revocation is now in effect. and the ministration is now ordering the commerce department which deals with all matters that are fine. commercial, not just the financial part of the economy to actually look at how all these applications owned by other countries, including those owned by chinese interests are actually managed, how they actually handle people's personal law information sensitive information,

and then try to devise a set of policies to make certain that americans, personal information is not inadvertently used or more important abused by these apps are owned by foreign interests. this does not mean however, that we chat and the app tick tock, which is very popular here in the u. s. are off the hook, as it were, a review could determine that these apps are not respecting privacy norms and laws of the united states, and they could still then be permanently banned from use in the united states. but for right now, they are continuing to be available. while the u. s. government conducts this review. al jazeera is condemning a series of cyber attacks against its services in a statement. it says the attacks try to access, disrupt, or control it's news plot forms. all attempts were thwarted since they began on

saturday, al jazeera media networks, as it reserves the right to pursue legal action against those involved and will continue to deliver its message. let's speak to in a freed who's the chief technology corresponded at axia to joining us from san francisco. thanks for speaking to us on al jazeera. so, how common or uncommon is the targeting of news organizations in this way? well, it hasn't been the 1st target of cyber attacks. most of these recent, especially these ransomware attacks, has been targeted against other types of businesses, but similar in that they are critical services. so i think we've seen, you know, we've talked colonial pipeline in the us, we've seen hospital cities, and we've recently seen the media be targeted in ransomware tax. it's kind of who needs their service badly enough and will pay. so why are news organizations targeted in this way? in your opinion, i mean the cyber attackers, looking to extract information or,

or looking to cause sort of destruction. well, i don't know for obviously this now does, your attack is more recent, so i don't know what's behind that, but you know, i think in general, what we've seen with ransomware is a packing victims who the, that need to stay up and running is greater than whatever financial recourse is being thought cox media was reportedly attacked similar to the cyber attacks that we've seen against pipelines and other pieces of infrastructure. i think it's targets of opportunity initially, but i think the risk is that we see state actors and others try and mirror the attacks of the financially motivated and do it for political reasons. again, i don't know that that's been the case in any of the media attacks, but that's certainly the risk here is that we see people sort of jump on the train for different reasons. so while the ransomware attackers are generally just seeking

money, we could see a tax for other reasons. and obviously the media could be a target for either reason. and what sort of steps can be taken to prevent cyber attacks? you know, it's really hard and what we've seen with the ransomware attacks is in general it's whatever piece is the most vulnerable. so typically the attackers get some piece of credential and it might be logging into the main service. it might be logging into any of the software providers that we all use. and sort of once you have a credential that's vulnerable, logging into the system and basically grabbing it and encrypting it, preventing people from doing business as usual. so it's kind of find any way in and then hold things hostage over where you are in the u. s. just earlier this week, the us presidents announced that the administration will begin to treat ransomware attacks as a national security threat, rather than just a criminal one. so does this tell you how concerned the governments are the

government over in the u. s. over over attacks such as these i do, i think it says 2 things. one that the government is taking it seriously, but it also is acknowledging that what's happening right now isn't working because basically right now treating each one as a separate incident. if you're a hospital, if you are a city, you kind of have no choice but to pay, but that's actually fueling more attacks. so it's really government and other entities that can afford to step in and say, no, we can't, we can't take this. whereas if you take one institution at a time, i think a lot of them are saying, look, we don't want to, but we've got to pay because we've got to keep our service running. whereas from a national or global standpoint, that's obviously not sustainable in a free thank you so much for speaking to us from san francisco. thank if now the u . n. is warning if a major loss of life in eastern me and mar if no immediate action is taken. it's accusing security forces of indiscriminate airstrikes against civilians. armed

groups have been resisting the military gentle, which is crack down on dissension. seizing power in february. now we're getting a porch there have little to no water food. there are people getting sick and they have no access to medical supplies. and what we've also learned is that the hunter is blocking roach that could provide aid organizations and those who are trying to get to them access to these people. and i've also heard a report, a credible report to just to day. but landmines are being laid on the road leading to the forest, where these desperate people are. so we could be looking not only at the impact of the bombing itself, but we could be looking at a significant loss of life. or getting more of a sense of how difficult life's become for protest or send me and mar and how they're trying to escape the violence. scott. hi, lar reports on the town of may saw on the border with thailand where there is a growing underground network that's helping people get away. hugging the movie

millimeters of rain. it will eventually make it to q 2 as we head toward friday, saturday, but by and large, most of japan will duck in dodge this rain. the philippines really locked into wet and humid weather. so we've got some pulses of heavy rain toward devil stretching all the way north to lose on island, on thursday. ok for se asia or heavy pulses of rain or for southern areas of indo china thunderstorm, sochi, men city called the poor singapore as well. and dang towards the south. we've got some boats of what, whether, you know, the southwest monsoon is starting to advance into mon buys or heaviest rains will now be, will by sell to coach he. and really though, for the se, we'll get into some dr. periods, janai, sunshine, $37.00 degrees are month to range really impacting myanmar. we've seen a deluge that's led to flooding and young gone after them the lease right now we've got a brisk way and coming down the golf. so that's kicking up the sand in. does kuwait, we're going to see wind gusts to about 70 kilometers per hour and we've got

again, the tough stories on al jazeera. he was president joe biden is heading to the u. k . as part of his 1st official trip abroad, a visit to europe will take nature on g 7 summit plus talk to russian president vladimir putin. job right and says he will revoke and executive order issued by donald trump that talked about the popular chinese owned apps, tick tock, and reach us will review several foreign controlled apps to see if they posed a security risk. al jazeera, condemning a series of cyber attacks against its services. it says the attacks tried to access the srp on control its new platform. all attempts were afforded since they begun on saturday. the presidential candidate for the mongolian people's party has claimed victory in a televised speech that despite only 60 percent of votes being countered, bahama jumped to him, reports voters in mongolia going to the polls to choose their new president.

this is the 1st vote to take place after constitutional amendments stripped the presidency of some of its powers, restricting office holders to a single 60 year term, and the nation's 3rd election to take place in the shadow of the colbert, 1900. pandemic. at a polling station in the capital, voters had their temperature scanned and observed social distances, saw the means to whom i really hope that the new president i chose today will economy back on its feet is due to the corona virus pandemic. the mongolian economy is really struggling, it almost fell on its knees. we'll see if to hook to our employment and i didn't matter that needs an immediate solution. so in order to do that for an investment is very important. so i really hope the new but i didn't, i chose today will improve mongolia, reputation abroad, and bring in more for an investment. the ruling mongolian people party is looking to consolidate power with former prime minister, who cannot grill so widely considered the front runner. in a campaign speech,

he emphasized the importance of self sufficiency for mongolia. it each year we spend around $1500000000.00 american dollars on buying petrol from outside our country. if this money stays in mongolia, the u. s. dollar exchange rate will drop tremendously. the true grit currency value will strengthen. we will not need to worry about petrol prices. another concern is political instability, which continues to be a problem for a young democracy. that after decades of communist rule passed its 1st constitution in 1990 to amnesty international, his voice concerned about ongoing depression of descent saying the election will take place amid a worrying human rights situation. the sentiment echoed by the opposition democratic party presidential candidate at a campaign rally in the run up for the vote. your bills of about today's mongolia, in spite of being a democratic country, is now seeing

a new oppression taking place. political abuse will become too much, that is why the democratic party being the main opposition for nationwide has decided to bring forth the idea of mongolia without depression or mongolia with democracy. some political activists believe the elections aren't even legal. with this mom, julia has been a democracy for 31 years, but nothing goes is it should fairly nothing in a real democratic way, according to laws. the laws are just not implemented to mongolia which often find itself in a political and economic tug of war between china and russia. has a population of around 3300000 people. with inequality being a major concern among voters and the country battling a resurgence of corona virus infections. a key question will be just how much a new president will be able to turn things around. how much am drop a 0 albania parliament has voted to impeach president, either metal. it follows an investigation that found he should be voted out for

violating the constitution. the president's role is considered a political, but meta has regularly class a prime minister, eddie rama. she was a russian court has been hearing a petition to outlaw political organizations linked to jailed opposition leader election of only if approved that will ban of all these allies from running and parliamentary elections later this year. moscow's top prosecutor accuses divani and his supporters of trying to launch a revolution. the kremlin critic is serving a 2 and a half year prison sentence for parole. violations related to an embezzlement. conviction. at least 10 workers clearing land mines in northern afghanistan had been killed. the government is leaving the taliban, but it denies responsibility. police say gunman entered the camp in babylon, province, and open fire. there has been increased violence in that area. james cohen is the chief executive of the halo trust that he doesn't think the taliban is responsible

for the time. i've got the biggest program. we have nearly 3000 and stuff that they were very proud of. the fact that the africans through employed by us, locally that come from all the different communities within afghanistan. and they do amazing work to save lives and we're still livelihoods within that very more effective country. you know, have our tough kind of stuff is at the moment and most of our work across country we can operate safely. what seems to happen is that this group entered, they wanted to find specific people, the particular ethnic group, and then they murdered 10 of them. and we did a further 16. the local taliban actually came to our assistance and the taliban itself has denied responsibility. so my suspicion is it's a different organization. i'm not going to speculate who it was. however, you know, we have a lot of people who welcome our work support our working,

recognize the need to remove landlines and other explosive hazards in afghanistan. so i don't think it would be profitable at this moment to speculate who exactly it was, but we were enough on long before 911. we've been going in afghanistan since 988. we've worked 3 different regimes, different phases of us can history. and we are determined to carry on our work with haiti's battling its 1st serious outbreak of coven 19 after more than a year, a few cases and deaths. it's yet to administer a single vaccine shot. and health officials say an increase in cases could prove catastrophic terrorism. reports their escaping gang violence. importer prince. over 500 people are seeking refuge in this port stadium. under the protection of the red cross among the displaced are almost

a 100 children and pregnant women. but it's not just the gangs, they're afraid off in the middle of epidemic. it's also covert 19 or 2. we are afraid because we don't know when the virus will hit us. that's why we're asking the government to do something for us because we've lost everything during the gang violence for the past year and a half of the go with 19 pandemic. the number of cases in haiti have been considered to be low, but in may, the numbers of cases started to rise. dr. boyer brinker who is working at the hospital in port au prince, says she has already lost friends and relatives to covered 19. no parking. what's under my good and we understand that cova became a big reality in haiti now, not like before when we have one or 2 cases and we have doubt about this disease. but now there are a lot of families affected by cove it. and we also hear more and more people are dying from the disease. haiti is the poorest country in the americas. it has only around $240.00 coves,

$900.00 bed for each population of over $11000000.00 people. and i see the increase of coven in haiti is a problem. a lot of our hospital is already occupied and we don't have a big sense of a covert that can take 202300 patients. at the same time, haiti has not received a single vaccine dosier to prevent corona virus, a lack of resources, infrastructure, and testing, or a major concern. the numbers of cases in death, a relatively low compared to other countries. but dr. say the actual figures are probably much higher the country is also now in the middle of a political crisis. protestors have been taken to the streets against the government's attempts to reform the constitution and gang seem to be in control of entire areas across the country. many are afraid of going to a hospital and being caught in a fire fight. we are the state in this country. the police is not strong enough to do anything. without us,

nothing can function of country. the pen american health organization says haiti will be receiving vaccines soon through the kovacs distribution system. it is also helping increase supplies of protective equipment for health workers, but it's the violence and insecurity that has many terrified in the country. a major problem when trying to fight a deadly infectious disease. that is, i will, i'll just euro russia as reopening, special corona, virus, hospitals, officer, an upsurge and infections. more than 60000 cases have been recorded in the past week. moscow's mayor says 10000 hospital beds are occupied with cove in 1900 patients and more field hospitals are being built. cases are also surging in st. petersburg is the city prepares the host games for the delayed hero, 2020 football tournaments, australia 2nd largest city will end its latest over the 1900 lockdown on friday. the people in melbourne will have spent 2 weeks inside. some restrictions on travel

colds. timothy bare cloud was a professor of evolutionary biology. had magdalen college oxford. he says it's known to survive extreme circumstances. these animals, they, they live in extreme habitat. so they live in places where they have wall to dry down occasionally where it praises occasionally. and so they do have a very high ability to survive those kinds of stresses as far as we know, they're all pretty male. so they, they lay eggs, a direct copy of the, of the mother, boring a few mutations. it's very unusual. it should put them in a big disadvantage, but somehow as a, as a big group with lots of species, they appear to be able to do this. that's one of the questions that scientists are interested in understanding about. the difficulty is that cellular life. i mean, it breaks down cells and so most things you would expect that after this length of time they would not be viable anymore. and so there shouldn't be too much risk from

that. but i mean, certainly the at the de permafrost is, is melting in these areas, if they really are organisms being able to survive for such long periods. and potentially would be releasing more of those. but i think at that, at this point, it still seems likely that most animals would not be able to survive. and, and i still have some questions whether these, whether these rotors have actually survived for this long ah, hello, the headlines on al jazeera joe biden is due to arrive in the u. k. within a few hours on his 1st overseas trip is us presidents. and he's planning to deliver a strong message on corona virus. a day visit includes nato and g 7 summit. it's on talks with russia. what reputed in switzerland, it's a transfer biden, to show the u. s. value.
