going to cut of our region where we challenge reports from our media as capital out of it's supposed to be another 2 years and said elections happen in armenia, but because of that conflict because of the last because of nicole passion, yann's plumber in support. he brought this forward. he wants to basically see this as a way of reaffirming his popularity and giving him another mandate to pursue the reform agenda that he has been trying to push through over the last 3 years of power, rebecca cherry, and his, his main adverse re in this election there are plenty of others, so it's a feel the policies and launches that stretches to about 26. but they're the main to rebecca cherry and has been calling nicole actually on a traitor and has been pushing the line that he is going to be tough. all

insecurity, he's going to reassert armenian and military strength, will have to wait and see, of course, what the electorate see and all of this, it's been a, a pretty vicious campaign with lots of nasty language being thrown around by size. and there are plenty of people you know, mania who are sick with the whole thing, particularly those who lost loved ones, sons, brothers, fathers, in the recent fighting. those that i've been speaking to. i basically saying that, that done with the whole thing. supporters of iran, the new president of celebration, his victory on the street to turn round atlanta abraham racy was declared the winner on saturday. an election that was marked by the voter apathy and economic hardship. he went around 62 percent support just on the half of eligible voters support below. turn out on the schools. the challenges ahead when before the chief justice takes power in august, i'll just here. as i said, beg reports from tara,

everyone in iran knew the outcome with no real prominent opposition. poles predicted conservative cleric, abraham, right, you see would when and when he did in a landslide victory, his closest opponent receiving 14000000 few votes, right. if he 1st gained prominence amongst the religious faithful, when he was appointed as custodian over the shrine in the city of mush at frequented by millions of pilgrims a year. he was praised for removing cropped officials from the shrines administration and serving pilgrims and i are to la considered to be a hide religious authority and she slammed his religious title hold weight among the countries religious. conservative base, right? if he had failed in his bid to win the presidency in 2017, he lost by 8000000 votes to hassan ronnie. during that campaign, he was criticized for his pastoral as a judge. on election day, once again, our people announced their decision and rejected those who in 38 years didn't know

anything but execution, an imprisonment as a young man. he was part of a committee that oversaw mass executions. in 1988 an audio recording was leaked during the 2017 election where i had to le montessori condemned. right. you see? and others on the committee for the role in the executions. general. yeah, i think the worst crime against the atlantic republic and that history will condemns for has been committed by you and your name will go in history as a criminal and i'm just the internet has said race. he should be investigated for crimes against humanity. as the judicial chief, he's seen as tacking corruption, a fundamental concern for many iranians. his appointment by the supreme needed to key roles has raised other questions, some feel his presidency, setting the stage for him to become the next supreme leader. but he still has to serve as president and make life better for many iranians supposed 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 for the dear people's trust

in the serving seminary students. i hope i can respond well to the people's confidence votes unkindness. during my turn. he's surrounded by what many consider to be hard line, as opposed to the 2015 nuclear deal, right? he says he supports it. mom be about a young man studying again. we are committed to the jcp away, as it was approved by ayatollah how many, but you can't implemented a strong governments should be in power to be able to implemented. but unlike president tundra honey and the moderates who saw the dia, that's a foundation for broader discussions and relations with the west. rafia he's cap, see it as a ceiling with deep mistrust of the united states. but his real test will be how he serves as president, and what change can bring to the country. as i said, big jazz era thereon israel's prime, it is not fully. bennett has described races when, as a last chance for world powers to wake out. he made the comments during a cabinet meeting. rate selection is i would say the last chance for the world

powers to wake up before returning to the nuclear agreement. and to understand who they're doing business with. these guys are murder, mass murderers, a regime of brutal haman must never be allowed to weapons of mass destruction that will enable them to not to kill thousands of millions worn out from hurry forces and west jerusalem. you would expect natalie bennett to say something like this. he certainly has been extremely vociferous in his opposition to the j. c. p. o, a, the iran nuclear deal. and he's making those comments in english, in a cabinet meeting to his colleagues with him. he used to be expected to speak in hebrew, so is obviously a clear message to the outside world. he has been coming in for a great criticism from the full of prime minister benjamin netanyahu, certainly on his way out of the door. and yahoo kept on criticizing bennett over

his in netanyahu's view inability to stand up to iran. and so again, you would expect it to be fairly hard line in his comments about racy whom he also called the butcher of tehran and saying that of all the people that jose could have chosen, he chose this man. so again, that, that is a fairly natural kind of response to those criticisms from that, you know, who also said that, that, that it would be able to stand up to the rate to the administration of president biden on the j. c, p. o, a. and there are reports, at least in the reading media, that senior officials believe that this election could lead to a delay in negotiations to return to that deal. and therefore potentially a window of opportunity to try and press the u. s. a bit more in favor of israel's position on the deal. and while bennett's predecessor benjamin netanyahu is under pressure to leave the prime minister's official residence in west jerusalem soup

gathered outside say that he should've moved out by now. threatening to take the masters. of course, israel's parliament approval and i believe in its coalition government last week and if nothing. yeah, who's uninterrupted? 12 years and power, he's on trial for corruption. afghanistan's president, ash rough, gaudy, has replaced to talk ministers in charge of security as telephone phases escalate that advance to take more territory. general bis miller con mohammad, he has been appointed new defense minister. he's previously held that offense and interior ministry positions, but also served as the chief of staff or general center that's not qual has been named that you interior minister. the taliban says that it seized more than 40 districts in recent weeks. people in, if you know them, te grier region one to take part in mondays. general election. the government says

the conditions on the ground don't allow for the vote, but as promised to hold them once things stabilize well than 2000000 people displaced by months of conflict. that's for tens of thousands to seek refuge and they bring sudan zeros. have a morgan reports now from got a reef state along the border with a few here. this little coffee shop in cuba camp is where some refugees hang out to escape the scorching sun outside. it's also where they come to talk about the latest development in their home region of the great in northern european, which they fled to escape fighting. and today, most of the conversation revolved around if he of his parliamentary election an hour and they are, i love my country and tomorrow the elections. i would have liked to vote with the conflict and politics. and if you have ruined many, many things. we've been excluded as if t gray was not part of a few p, and that really pains me. conflict erupted last november and if he appears to agree between the government and the regional take root people's liberation front or

t p l f. the ruling party, if you appeal for 27 years, they will also from power in 2018. following years of protests and new government was formed, led by prime minister abbey met, who promised reforms and free and fair elections in 2020. but they have been twice postponed due to the corona, virus pandemic, and logistical problems. many here of what the age cast ballots in the to grid regional elections, which were held in september last year that was not recognized by the federal government. and was one of the factors behind the conflict, the regent, $7000000.00 people want to be taking part in parliamentary election this year. many who fled to camp here say after the violence of witness back home. they don't feel they're missing out. right. groups have accused both the left and federal government, of committing atrocities in the conflict. refugees who've arrived here have reported being tortured, beat him and imprisoned because of a gram identities. every twin groups fighting, integrate for the government,

have been accused of human rights violations from masculine, to sexual violence, to blocking a to those in need. refugees also accused militia term if you, if i'm her region of carrying out killings integrate. are you going to be, i'm her militias came to my house at night and beat my husband and tried to force us into a military truck. i was 6 months pregnant and the neighbors told them to let me go because of that. we skate. we saw the malicious kill many people including my 30, our neighbor here in this coffee shop. the read it is that the conflict integrate has divided a country that was already unraveling. and that election would further destabilize if someone will want to. there's fighting and other parts, if it's job you, including the somali region, aroma, and venetian google on the most prominent opposition. figures are in jail of the government layman. this is a country of law and order, but this is a line. and i don't think this election will be democratic process. those hearsay,

even though the votes are yet to be cast and their results haven't been announced. the outcome of the election is unlikely to change the trajectory of africa, the 2nd most populous country people, morgan august 0, who by camp body said we'll get a weather update. thanks to come on our syrup. if you didn't understand before the pandemic or the small interconnected planet, we're on show, you must understand that now you and it's now former top humanitarian official telephones is 0. the global pandemic is exposed snores in a system. but suppose what are pena has learned from the financial curve? teen response of the challenges for the health care systems for faces. ah, ah, it's time for the journey to with sponsored by kettle airways.

the me again, this is out of here are the main news this. armenians voting and types. parliamentary election. prime minister nicole pushing in resigned and triggered the bows, open to renew his mandate on last year's defeat in the conflict with neighboring as a by show israel, a new prime minister, not for the benefit described iranian president elect abraham ratio. when, as a final wakeup call for world powers before returning to the 2015 nuclear deal, that i've chemist on president sharp, connie has replaced to talk ministers in charge of security as telephone phases escalate. to take more, tara trace telephone says it sees well than 40 districts which speaks supporters of both peruse. political rivals have been out in huge numbers as tension rises over

this month, selection, socialist contender, petro kasteel, who narrowly leads the official count, has claimed victory. but right when canada keiko for jewelry says, there's been fraud at his seeking to get foods, an old mariana sanchez, reports from lee about the nearly 2 weeks after voters went to the poles. thousands of the look of your supporters marched claiming victory, his rival kiko for he morty says the election was rigged, casting a shadow over the result. well as i know. 7 0, the fool he morning has run a dirty campaign. the number show that castillo one. what else does she want? i for he murray. contest the results that these lucas, these are more than 44000 votes. 2 on saturday electoral officials rejected with questions to know the votes, they said there's no proof of fraud. humility supporters claim,

otherwise they had to show us the ballot since the election is rig castillo. never did well in the opinion polls. now they are feeling the election the fraud allegations prompted a group of retired senior military officers to call the armed forces chief to reject castillo, if he's named precedent. in an open letter, they warned if electoral officials declared him the winner, the military could intervene. because i guess he condemned the statement, but i just saw people when he was on it. i reject this. not only opposes our democratic values and institutions but goes against the constitution. and the law of instructed the defense minister to forward it to the judiciary. so it is investigated. the analysts say some politicians are looking for any way to prevent castillo from becoming president. if you can see, in addition to this deep political crisis, lawmakers, a paving,

the way to unsafe presidents sagacity to take control of congress, then name a new constitutional tribunal in order for new magistrates to result who wins the election. pensions across the country are also field by some politicians who are calling for the whistle to be an old citing fraud and urging for a new round of elections. these electrons are polarized for movie and there are deep res, i'm class. the reason analysts say the longer the national electoral jury take to determine who the president is, the worse the situation will get on the streets of the country. there will be a looser, neither side, except it could be the candidate with peruvian protesting. many say they are more than ready to fight, but in the center, so i'll just see that lima beaten in south

africa. the government has tightened cobit 19 restrictions to fight a 3rd wave, which is expected to be worse than the last one in some areas. as when smith reports from cape town, coping with a virus largely depends on where people live and how much money they have. south africa is in the grip of a deadly 3rd wave of cove at 19 infection. the army has been deployed to assist doctors in the most populous province of carting. almost 2 thirds of the countries active cases have been reported. their hospitals are under pressure and supplies of oxygen are becoming short. the situation was similar in the western cape during the 2nd wave at the end of last year. but experts believe that province won't be as hard hit this time around. part bay in cape town, is often described as a microcosm of south africa, informal settlements, skirt, the boundary of sprawling estates. mcmercer lives here and contracted cove at 19 in

december last year. i've never felt as sick as in my whole life as i, as i did fax, those 10 days say it was quite scary for me. but luckily for me and we live in big house and i had a, i see you, dr. looking after me. so we had things like, you know, we had sat monitors and the monitors and the letter just a few 100 meters away. thing is all very different people living here. she also toilets full social does. something is not easy. and families comes into these tiny sex. do not have the luxury of isolating in the provincial health department says poor people are at greater risk and blames those better off for spreading the virus the 3rd way in this province as primarily been driven by people

that live in the area. so the people that can isolate the people that can quote and other ones, it's not been at the into the, the behaviors south africa as covert 19 vaccination program has faced several obstacles and only one percent of the population is fully vaccinated. it still does a lot about equity and staying in the world. we could have prevented quite a lot of data that will come out of the said way. if we had access to vaccines earlier and fairly when you again have to stand in line, it just kills just kill. and it's, it's, it's the most real feeling of they've been do you do? many here on all waiting anxiously for more developed nations to respond. robin smith out there or kept on the u. s. as tripling the number of vaccines that it's sending to taiwan more than 2 and a half 1000000 doses of madonna should arrive on sunday. the island was relatively

unscathed by covert by team that has now been caught off guard by rising case. number's the you estimation signals support for taiwan in the face of pressure from china, which claims, self governing taiwan as its territory. malawi, meanwhile, has run as a thank seems, a big un shipment is delayed because of india's decision to suspend vaccine exports . nearly 400000 people have received that 1st shot of that. been very few 2nd doses . i've got astonish, recorded 92 new corona virus deaths in the last 24 hours. the countries seen a surge and infection since late last month. 10000 view cases recorded. and just the last week, i've kind of stone began. it's vaccine rolled out in april, but so far, not even one percent of the population has been fully vaccinated. albania says that it's achieved. heard immunity through infections, causing corona virus transmission dramatically. but it came at a cost for under resourced and overwhelmed hospitals. and the resulting death toll

may have been far higher, but official figures suggest jobs. reckless reports from the capitol toronto. this is covered one, the 1st of 4 public hospital wards at the heart of the obedient government's pandemic response. from november to february, it was overrun because of the government policy to concentrate all the countries covered 19 cases into iran. at the very beginning, we were thinking it would be a lot of time by the time run around by we were thinking it's much easier and economically and logically and medically, thinking to get those services much closer to that people by then would had gone around the hospitals were under pressure ariens can de named journalist of the year for his coverage of the pandemic. witness to the problems? no. okay. well no, again, no case that patients have to wait 6 to 8 hours just to be on low do from

ambulances. because there were no beds available, they were very sick and needed to go to intensive kevin mediately some died in the ambulance in the overcrowded and undisturbed words. some patients committed suicide by jumping from the windows. hearing these stories, many patients were afraid to go. some went to private clinics, many of them to turkey through a special charter flight. and many stayed home. yogi pudgy says he spent 5000 well as an oxygen and nursing bit above us in the us and i had many friends who went to hospital and never got out alive. so i decided to stay home. at 1st it was easy. i thought, is this the great covert? every one is talking about, but then i got really sick. i thought i died and came back to life. the prime minister eddie rama says, albania is early lockdown initially saved the country from the soaring infection rates of western europe. what happened in italy scared us a lot. so it was

a bit like running home and we were if you recall, well the 1st country after easily to impose love. now our liaison was very, very heavy. then we did the many things faster than others because of the, of the terrible fear that if we would not control this to be us. but albania didn't have the resources to keep workers at home during the 2nd wave of the virus. herd immunity was achieved through infection at a high cost. officially, 2 and a half 1000 people died of cove at 19 in albania. but the us based institute for health metrics and evaluation estimates the figure nearly 16000 because that's how many more people died here over the past 9 months than would normally have died in the same time period. we've heard immunity achieved infection rates plummeted in

time for a general election in april and 17 percent of the population has now received at least one vaccine chart. far above the global average of 12 percent. helping prime minister at a rama when a 3rd term jumps out, pull us al jazeera tirana. the current of ours pandemic exposed fundamental challenges and failures of the current humanitarian system. that's the view of outgoing united nations humanitarian chief ma, slow cock. he made the comments of an interview with al jazeera as diplomatic editor james base. before years mark low call has been the u. n's, talk humanitarian official. he's sometimes been outspoken. recently describing the g 7 pledge to provide 1000000000 doses of vaccine over the next year. as a small step in an interview without jazeera, he says cobit 19 should have been a time for global cooperation, but instead, each country was pending for themselves. his 1st,

the failure of kindness and empathy, but it secondly, a huge act of self home. because if you didn't understand before the pandemic or the small ins connected planet where on surely you must understand that now everybody can see the new variance coming up all over the world. a border wall does not protect you from a virus. if you want to keep yourself safe, you have to worry about everybody else's safety too. in terms of the humanitarian system of the world, has coby 19 exposed flores. i do think that the pandemic has exposed some fundamental challenges about the humanitarian system. we have a financing system which is far too slow and reactive. the best and cheapest responses are the fastest ones, the more proactive you are. this that the, the cheaper is to solve that problem, but also the better the solution and that alongside the fact that the burden is

shared in a very, you know, unfair way with for leading finances. the us, germany, the e u. and certainly up to recently the u. k. paying 70 percent of the cost of the responses to $20000000000.00 a year response is i've been managing i increasingly thing that is not really a sustainable situation. i think the world is going to have to find a different way of financing these kinds of responses in terms of the humanitarian situation around the world. is it moving in the right direction or not? or it's now some, fortunately, you do confront a lot of human misery and suffering in this job. and the good thing is you, you can at least do something to take the edge of that, of that part. the problem is that because the causes of humanitarian suffering, conflict, climate change, disease like cove it have been accumulating. and because while it's been responding

to his large, he the symptoms, the problems keep getting worse. mr. low coke has in recent months warned of the possibility of 2 separate famines in ethiopia, the country where he began his humanitarian career, dealing with a famine of 984 and in yemen, a country his successor. in the job, martin griffin knows very well, having served in recent years as the us special envoy. james bays al jazeera london . ah, hello again to check the headlines on al jazeera, armenians opposed to get a type snap parliamentary election. prime minister nicole push indian resigned and triggered the vote, hoping to renew his mandate after last year's defeat, the conflict that they bring as a buy shawn for re challenge reports from armine as capital out of them. it's supposed to be another 2 years until elections happen in armenia,

but because of that conflict because of the last because of nicole passion, yann's plummet.
