using the populations from the geo politics to the pure economics, the misinformation, the latest developments, what's going on here is very different. first off, the back thing comes in the form of a nasal spray. special coverage of the colona virus pandemic on a jessina. ah, abraham racy is declared the when a wrong presidential race supreme leader. how many have the election as a people victory? ah, why money side this is al jazeera ally from dive ho. so coming up, both is loyal. the libyan warlord holly for hasa say they've taken over border crossing with jerry as the 1st major offensive the sci fi deal in october.

nationwide practice in brazil demanding more vaccines and cooling the president. giant wilson are to be in teach guinea 2nd. but an outbreak is declared over avoiding repeat that, but it's off a few years ago i we begin in iran where hotline candidate abraham racy has been declared the winner of the presidential election. a widely anticipated results. after all the strong contenders were bog from running rice. these vote count toward those of the other 3 candidates. securing 17900000. that's nearly 62 percent of the votes rise. he will take office in august the 50 and says he will work closely with the outgoing president. has sondra honey. said my to about that if you're as you graduate, my very dear brother, mr. abraham. right. you see he has

a very heavy responsibility check. now that i'm kim and i have no doubt that the people will support his legitimate government so that their interests can be best implemented. suppose to shut down right now, i'd like to offer my gratitude to the very dear honorable and vigilant people. i thank the almighty god, the dear pupils trust in the serving seminary student. i hope i can respond well to the people's confidence votes unkindness. during my turn, by turn at was the lowest. iran has ever seen just 48.8 percent of the countries more than 59000000 eligible voters cost that balance. that was largely due to lack of enthusiasm for the election. and the corona vars pandemic. well, iran supreme leader has hail the vote as a victory over the enemy, propaganda in its sweet, i'll tell the other how many wrote the following the winner. the election is the iranian nation. they have again stood up to the propaganda of the enemy's mess and

re media and the edges of the simple minded, the ill wishes. they have displayed. the presence in the heart of the country's political arena for him to ron acid bag tells us more about what these results could mean to the country. what it tells us that he has increased his vote by i think, 2000000 volts since the last time he stood back in 2017 and then against president hassan ro, harney. but it also tells us that there are considerable number of people in this country that support brian rice and his outlook in those debates that took place as presidential debates. he very much concentrated on domestic issues and he was reaching out to those that feel different. disillusion, disappointed with the ronnie administration over the last 4 years. and he promised to make the economy better. he built his reputation on fighting corruption and that's what people know him for. so the 1st task for him will be to deal with the

economy. of course, there are the international issues such as the 2015 nuclear, you know, many of he's supported, never supported that deal in the 1st place. but abraham has said that he does support the yes, as the supreme nita has backed it. but the difference between him and the reformists is president hasn't hardly and he's reformist back as is that the reform is see the 2015 nuclear deal as a foundation to build better relations with the west. whereas abraham, right, you see, and he's conservative supporters or some some know them as principal list supporters . they see it as the ceiling. they have a deep mistrust of the united states and mistrust. in fact, that they feel that it's proven right. especially since the former president to donald trump pull the 9 states out of that deal, an impulse tensions against iran. one of rice's main concerns is the 2015 nuclear deal. iranian foreign minister, jo serif says,

talks in vienna are getting well and could reach a conclusion before racy takes office. there is a good possibility that we will reach an agreement before the end of our tenure as as how soon we are supposed to leave our office by mid august. and i think there is a good possibility that we can reach an agreement way before mid others. the talks are going on right now as we speak. i just read the latest text editor that is being discussed in vienna. the text is getting cleaner and cleaner. the brackets are being removed. barbara slavin is the director of the future of iran initiative at the atlantic council. she says, well, this may be a new president for iran, it doesn't mean that will be drastic. change the 1st, let's point out that the key decision maker and iran was never the president. it

was always the supreme leader, particularly the supreme leader, ayatollah ali, home and 8th. so in that sense, there isn't really that big change we've heard, right? see already commit to the iran nuclear deal. iran need sanctions really. so i agreed that it's likely that they will wrap up these talks in vienna, well before racy, and his cabinet come in and that iran will obtain desperately needed sanctions release. i think the question is whether there is going to be anything to build on with this group. and there, you know, the vita ministration has talked about a longer and stronger agreement. that's going to be that's going to be a really heavy lives. going to be very difficult, i think, to negotiate that with a racy lead administration. he's going to look more towards china more toward russia. he's not going to be welcome probably in a lot of western capitals. we'll see what happens to the personal sanctions on him

. but, you know, we have to remember that this period of iranian history, where they are, presidents came to the united states came to the un general assembly, tried to, to cultivate some kind of positive ties for iran in the west. that's only 25 years old, really. it largely dates 200 hot to me. who was the reformist president from 1997 to 2005. so it may be that we will not have this kind of interaction in the future with iranian presidents to libya now, where a large military force loyal to the warlord holly for half says it's taking control of a border crossing with algeria on thursday half to announce an operation in the area to expel what he called mercenaries, and extreme as fighters. images posted online show dozens of armored vehicles positioned in and around the border crossing. it's a fast military operation by half the us forces since signing a si, fi deal with the government in tripoli. last october. malick china has more than

a story. livia has seen relative peace since the cease fire agreement was signed in october. so this is a very significant movement, it's the 1st time that such a large military mobilization has happened. they've declared, have to force, have declared the area military zone. so we're going to have to wait and see what's going to happen. but this comes just days before an international conference in berlin. the united nations in germany are hosting the berlin to conference. and that's meant to bring, bring before an actors for actors involved, foreign stakeholders together in berlin to discuss, supporting libby as new in term unity government. and also bringing about elections . elections are scheduled to take place in december this year. but this could possibly impede those elections. and impede the peace process that's been happening

. and this also comes just a few days after an official visit by luke the libyan government. to algeria, they agreed on a couple things. one of which was opening the 2 new g l julian border for commercial trade. the board was closed for several years. we're going to have to wait and see what kind of, what, what, what exactly is going to happen after this military movement. and whether or not this will create or bring about or bring more challenges towards this new government to lead the country to elections. later on this year, the world health organization has declared an end to a bowler outbreak and guinea. it emerged in february and killed 12 people. health ministry vaccinated thousands of people to contain the virus which causes severe bleeding and organ failure. the by the outbreak from 2014 to 2016 killed more than 11000 people, mostly in guinea, really own and liberia. with most jose is

a bio medical scientists and an expert on viral diseases. he says, health experts learn lessons from the previous outbreak. very quickly to bring the 2 permission efforts around much nation for a whole lot contain transmission using really effective diagnostics approaches. and then also put in place these brainbox nation schemes which allow basically people call around individuals that come in fact that bothers to be box nathan very quickly and be protected and they are a 100 percent. i think it's a so that we can contain such that big days from becoming a problem locally, nationally and internationally as well. this national response most come together in 2015, 2014 to try and turn around the time brought a lot of learning to the local community,

managed to reinvigorate the local community in terms of health care professional training and in terms of understanding of the disease. also in the local community increase the understanding because culturally, people just didn't have the experience of all of them went into came across the just didn't know how to respond to it. this is really funny because the, the west african outbreak wrote the rule book. unfortunately, with so many western developed nations in the last year to look at the rubric, i know this is almost africa still nothing to do for us. but in fact, really human, we'll respond the same way that we're most shopping by phone. or there is no bowl actually remember we have the same situation with the court of ours. so yes, a lot of learning, something brought together implemented in west africa. the disease came back again and we were able to contain it. we were able to make show about it doesn't

spread out on the problem. west african leaders, the holding a regional summit in gone us capital machinations of the economic community of west african states. so it co us taking part barley's latest, who is high on the agenda along with regional security. the leaders worry that attacks from groups linked to al kaden, iso could spillover from molly to neighboring countries. still ahead on al jazeera displayed down relying on food aid, the plaintive refugees from ethiopia, t gray region, living in northern neighbors, neighboring su down. i will see what's on the minds of armenians as they perpetuate in an election of a very difficult ah

i once again, it's no surprise it in the forecast across the middle east, the burning heat continue. and we are going to see the shema when just teasing off the touch as we go on through the next couple of days, still quite breezy around the the gulf states. having said that, but not quite as windy as it has been recently. so lots of hazy sunshine coming through pretty much was, was on trying to be want to, to showers. wanted to lighthouse just to the east, to the boss for a south western side of turkey. seeing a shower or 2, some showers too for a time just around the golf evaded but nothing too much to speak of here. oh she was there, extend the way down across ethiopian highlands. you see how the easterly way so just pulsing some heavy right across the tropical belt of africa. some more big down pause. they're coming into a nigeria all the way through gonna ivory coast right across into liberia and more of the same as we go on through the next couple days. it's south of that where it's

largely dry. we have got a few showers in the forecasts for most and big for the past most and being maybe it's a coastal pass of tanza air as well. and noticed some wet weather garage pushing into the western cape as we go through monday and on into tuesday. so temperatures do start fall away in cape town by wednesday, a high 40 the weather bag energy and change to every part of our universe. more small to continue the change all around the shape, my technology and human ingenuity, we can make it work for you and your business. ah

ah, you're watching out, is there a mind if i told stories this hour abraham racy has been declared the winner of iran presidential election pe secured about 62 percent of the vote in a landslide victory. to turn out was just on the 49 percent, the lowest in iran history forces loyal libyan would say they've taken control of afford a crossing without g area, the major offensive by have just been signing a sci fi deal with the government in tripoli. last october. the wells health organization has declared an end to an outbreak and guinea. it emerged in february

and killed 12 people, health ministry vaccinate to thousands of people to contain let's turn now to latin america, which has seen some of the worst of the corona, vars. pandemic. countries are struggling with high infection rates and slow vaccine rollouts. the continent is reporting the most depth per capita in the world up to 18 per 1000000. that's compared to less than one per 1000000 in the united states. in brazil, protest says how on the streets demanding the impeachment of president j. a both scenario is handling the pandemic. they will say one's better access to vaccines, or this comes a week after both scenario was fine for not wearing a mask after election, roddy in south palo. we have 2 correspondents with us, monica yanna, q as in rio de janeiro. but 1st, let's turn to daniel schwab la, he has this update. apologies. we also have daniel weidler who's going to cover the

rest of the region. let's turn to monica janik youth, monica, what is the situation where you well, the concert in real there's a narrow, has just send it. you just have to hire me. as you can see, a grim reaper representing our president. j bowles. so not all, but this is a nationwide protest, so it is just beginning pretty soon. it will start in the city of baltimore and the amazon in another state. so far it's, it's, they're expecting, protest all day long. in almost all of the brazilian states, protesters have been coming out asking for both, so not as impeachment, and also blaming him for the, for the deaths. brazil is about to reach the landmark of half a 1000000 deaths. prove it 19 tonight at the most tomorrow. and

there is the vaccine roll out, has been slow. there is a senate committee investigating the government's handling of the pandemic, the senators and doctors suspects the government has been trying to achieve, heard immunity by infection. and the result is this number of death now. yup. position was very slow to take to the streets, mainly because they accuse also not of, of doing just that, of causing, of gathering from these on a campaign rally. has been the holding motor bike rallies and several cities in the capital, brazilian real ball. and so they didn't want to do the same, but they now say that if they stay home, it's worse because the virus is still killing many people. okay, many thanks for that update monica yet to care for us at in rio de janeiro. let's tend to, daniel,

my last one is there is we got the picture that from brazil. i wonder what the situation is like in the rest of the latin american region. well believe grim is the, is the short on. so what is the 500000 deaths approaching in brazil that monica mentioned? another 700000 people writes across latin america and the caribbean have also died from the code at 19 virus. so it's more than 35000000 people infected. and in many countries, those figures keep going up. i'm not the respective of how the countries have tackled the virus. what kind of lockdown restrictions there have been? every country has its own political and economic situation, yet of the 10 worst effected countries at the moment. 9 of them are registered in latin america, the highest per capita death rate in peru, power g y also very serious. and what we're also seeing is hospitals across the

region, whether it's in brazil, columbia, argentina, reaching, breaking point. we've seen images of patients being left outside in the korea doors in the car parks with no, i see you beds available to them. and even when they do get in quite often, there isn't in the oxygen, we seen severe oxygen shortages in places like peru or the medicines needed to treat these severely affected patients. a grim picture across the region. and what was he looking at? what's going on in europe in north america? seeing there, that people, tentatively cautiously looking at it and enter the pandemic. really no such luxury here, right across latin america. and all that, any theories as to why this might be what many theories. but i think one of the major ones is a systemic problems of poverty of poll, wealth distribution, lack of investment in infrastructure,

especially in the health systems. so already underfunded hospitals and now struggling severely against this flood of patients coming their way. so that's really the fund, the fundamental problem, but it was so many millions of people across latin america working in the informal effect. so even when they governments tell them you must stay at home, they're really not in any position to do that is either go out to work or not have enough money to feed the families. the people are going out. they all mixing, despite understanding perfectly well. what the situation is, and also as you mentioned before, the slow roll out of the vaccine across many countries. the pan american health organization estimates only one in 10 of the 600000000. also, people in latin america have been vaccinated so far better in some countries and others. argentina, chile, you require a good vaccination programs, yet the numbers of desperate infections keeps going up despite that. but what they're saying is the vaccinations must come in in greater numbers and the roll out

program must work much, much faster. and he thinks that, daniel, i'm the one is eric. moscow has registered a new rec, holds the coven 19 infections for the 2nd day running, or the 9000 cases were recorded in the last 24 hours. moscow's may s as a such as being driven by the contagious delta variance 1st identified in india. restrictions including a ban on large gatherings have been extended in the city to palestinian teams have been arrested in occupied easter with them. they were protesting insults made against prophet mohammed during a nationalist march on tuesday. israeli police have been preventing people from being present at the damascus gate. one of the entrances to the holy sites in jerusalem. hundreds of israeli far right nationalist march through jerusalem this week celebrating its patient in 1957 while chanting anti arab and muslim slows.

meanwhile, israeli security vehicles have been set on fire after raid on a wedding in the palestinian israeli town of de l. as the police have said, they were responding to reports of gunfire. the event, the spokesman said, guess attack the offices. i witnesses say the situation escalated when an officer for his gun one palestinian israeli civilian was seriously wounded and one officer was injured. if you're, if you're is preparing so parliamentary elections on monday, the vote comes as tens of thousands from either a t great region continue to seek refuge across the border into done more than 2000000 are internally displaced. many more need food aid. if morgan reports from gather reef and see john near the border with this was once i get highly maria shelter in this refugee camp before went and heavy rain brought it down 2 weeks ago

. a farmer from whom at the if you take the reach and he says he stayed despite the fighting that started last november. but when his livelihood was threatened, he was forced to leave his farm and come to the dance god estate. the latter to have held the horror militia came and burned our farms that we planted and we're waiting to harvest and they stole everything. i wanted to stay, but there was no food, and they were preventing aid from reaching us. so i came here to seek security and to get food. and again, i think it says he believes the branding of farms was done to force the grants like himself into sarajevo. and the conflict between the if you can government and the regional take great people's liberation front, has skill thousands and internally displaced more than 2000000 over the past 7 months. 350000 people in the region are facing famine, according to the united nation, which says that our vision is being used as a weapon of war. the united states has described the conflict of ethnic cleansing against the graeme, at least 70000, to grant,

have fled to sudan since the thought of the fighting, the number of refugees arriving encamped here in put down have reduced compared to the conflict, broke out into gray but those who managed across the border say it's not because conditions have improved back home. they say it's going to continue to be targeted because of the esna city and many atrocities are being reported. and while they come seeking refuge conditions here are far from ideal. so gothic light was one of the 1st to arrive in this camp which opened at the start of the year. the shelter she was given like hundreds of others, has collapsed as a result of urban weather conditions. she says she shared accommodation with other refugee families. and while she received a not enough for her and her family, she is now suffering from malnutrition and is unable to nurse her 16 month old daughter. hard to find a mallet, but given flower and oil, but it's not enough for us. my daughter keeps crying for milk, but i don't have any to give her. so i give her rise to keep her stomach full, but that's not enough to cover the nutrients she needs. and i worry about her

health. aid are going to station see hundreds of severe and moderate malnutrition cases have been recorded in the for refugee camp established to accommodate the refugees and camp authority. see access to health care to create now nutrition as well as other diseases is limited. and with the rainy season starting, they are concerned about the welfare of the refugees. we need to get them. i will have someone doesn't want to go. those who are suffering from a shortages need to make sure all their needs are met with the rain issues and starting. we've already seen shelters falling, and many people left off to the open again. with some suffering from malnutrition, we can see more and more refugees getting sickness. the situation is dire and we need it. organizations to step up, i guess as he'll work to fix his shelter until he gets a better one. but he says, looking at the life his living now, he wishes the conflicts back home with and so he can go back to his farm and to the life he left behind. he, bill morgan, on the wrong,

the made by camp out of state armenians, head to the polls on sunday. in the backdrop of last year's military defeats at the hands of azerbaijan and turkey. the defeat triggered anti government process. the prime minister was forced to call early elections. we'll re challenge reports from amelia's capital yet event i just 3 years on from it. so clues, velvet revolution and armenian politics is getting loud again. this election should be 2 years off still, but prime minister nicole passion, young, who wrote a power on a wave of street protests in 2018 a since lost a humiliating war and is much weakens. our supporters with a radi in yerevan sticking by the man though he did everything we're

here to support our prime minister because we trust him. we've seen full freedom during his years and office and this is enough reason to trust him again and again . somewhat unusually for, for my savior, country outside the u. this is a competitive election with an uncertain outcome, but they're still a favorite. they could reasonably be expected that any prime minister who i was always countries, devastating defeat and war would be political history. yes. the polls so tightens, but most predictions are the nicole passion. you will be the next prime minister of armenia and paradoxically, for an incumbent. he's framing this as a new revolution. let me see sunny on the 20th of june, starting from 8 am in armenia. a people's non violent revolution will start to say, but this time it's going to be an iron revolution. and that's revolution will start from atm at the polling stations. and they'll be massive voting for us to now with

his armenia alliance. former president robert carrion is passion, yann's main rival, although he's tainted by allegations of corruption. carry on is trying to capitalize on his polls, bounce and unify the anti passion. the i'm vote i have no trust towards cure or tease because that to blame for crisis in some of them and i got a border most important for me is to create peace for our country. i'm sure our media alliance will go forward and not back it. political scientists, alexander is, can darian says armenia is still democratic. the young and personalities dominates rather than stable parties. i asked him what challenges the winner faces, eric, everything from economy to institutionalization from problems with other by john borders. no, got to cut about the problem, refugees develop that said a lot of problems that that's

a problem. i would say any part to which will come to part to the to, to power now will be not popular in half a year without these campaigns have been polarized and bitter. and the country is deeply traumatized by a military defeat. elections may result, some of the countries issues that by no means all of them rory, talents out his era, armenia. ah, this is al jazeera, these are your top stories. abraham roy, you see, husband declared the winner of iran's presidential election. he's the q, 62 percent of the vote in a landslide victory though to turn out was just under 49 percent, the lowest in iran history supposed to show us. and i'd like to offer my gratitude to the very dear honorable and vigilant people. i thank the almighty.
