hello, i'm marianne was in london watching al jazeera, also coming up on the program as been more violence on a full day of protests against the palestinian president. after the death of a leading critic and an agonizing waiters. the search goes on for more than a $150.00 people still missing 3 days after florida. apartment block collapse 9 people and now when found to have died. ah hello, welcome to the program. our top story to delta of varying to the corona virus is causing a steep rise in infections around the world that is increasing focus on south africa where the president has announced tougher restrictions as the country seeks to stem a surging 3rd wave of the virus. or gatherings and the sale of alcohol will be banned for 2 weeks. from midnight schools will close from wednesday at 9 pm. cuffy

will be enforced in an address to the nation thorough run, the post a stretch that a rapid spread of the delta vary is very serious. we are in the grid or devastating wave that by all indications seems like it would be worse than those that have preceded it. the peak of this 3rd wave looks set to be higher than the previous 2 waves. the 1st wave. if we recall last that 15 weeks, the 2nd wave lasted nearly 9 weeks. we don't know how long this one will last, but indications that it could last longer. robin smith brings us more on a story now from cape town. all indications right now what would be told is that

this 3rd wave is going to be worse than what we experienced in the 2nd way. and this is no, but an expected government or the same thing that the 3rd wave would actually hit us, not as hard as the 2nd wave did. and this was because they weren't expecting the damper very to come to south africa. but now what we've heard is that the dog is the variant that is most dominant infield africa. the moment as you play to that bite from the president, he went on to say that you know, private, public confident, buckling under the pressure. we are hearing reports of ambulances, queuing, outside of people being turned away for treatment for admission into hospital of people being treated at home, but not having enough oxygen of hospital beds running or hospitals running on the face of oxygen as well. and what we also use, you've made it very clear that the current restrictions clearly are not working and

people aren't doing them either. meanwhile, thousands of migrant workers have been scrambling to leave the bangladesh capital dot com before tough new current of ours restrictions come into force. lockdown will close most businesses and can find people for their homes in the coming days. it follows a surgeon cases of the highly infectious delta, very last identified in neighboring india. on friday, almost 6000 new cases were 4 said no more than a 100 fatalities. this is the 2nd highest death toll. since the panoramic began, this is locked down. i'm heading home. what would we do doing this locked down, expected to stop with my family in my village. everything will be closed during the lockdown. there's no point sitting idle and imprisoned indica. i'd rather spend time with my kids and parents at home. and tamra chandry brings this one is now from dot com. now on friday, the government and now that the sick lot done and it will be in force, that's when the people got panic and thousands of people are leaving the capital

city. the buses restrict on the trains are shut down so they're going by any means of transport. some people are actually walking because from thursday, july 1, there will be a complete shut down and it will be enforced by law enforcement agency, including the military will be applied. so people are panic. they want to be with their family. they want to be in their home to stay guarding the rural villages. now the quick question is why it took so long. the virus has been spreading since may 15th, that was record at the influx rate was growing high in the border and the government still delayed by the strict or shut down bangor that has 4000 kilometers a border with india. and it's very part of a lot of trade, people going back and forth now spreading through the capital city hospitals in the district with bordering india. our full it's use are in full capacity. it's still not a crisis point, but it could very well reach that will thailand is also tightening restrictions in

bangkok and all the provinces to tackle it's was kind of our outbreak so far. the measures beginning on monday will last for a month, construction sites will be shot down and indoor dining and gatherings of more than 20 people will be banned. health officials, blaine, the rise and infections, or lack of compliance amongst migrant workers. and then in thailand, in thailand's neighbor to the south, malaysia, very extending their locked down to try and stop the spread of covered 19 restrictions was to be left on monday, but the prime minister says that they won't be eased until daily cases for below 4000 more than 5000 infections reported on saturday. the measures are brought in at the start of the month after the day the number of cases topped $9000.00. ah. in the west bank has been a 4th day of protest against the palestinian authority that of ton violent hundreds

turned out to riley in the city of ramallah. after the death of an outspoken critic of the policy and authority died in custody. stephanie deck reports from ramallah, the chaos on the streets of it, among the group of pro government supporters march down to where around a 100 testers had gathered peacefully chanting slogans against the policy authority . protests were beaten, and members of the media were aggressively targeted. many se has been a concert campaign against the press. camera cards were forcibly removed and taken . a colleague had his camera smashed. we were surrounded by thugs who forced us to bring down the satellite antenna on our old hosting truck. there are security members, you know, but with the civil clause, the related to different security groups, military intelligence and the which all the,

the president gods. also this is part of that. most of them, you know, they are not civilians security it's the 4th day of protests following the death of palestinian authority. critic, these are burnett, according to his family who was beaten in the middle of the night, entertained by members of the palestinian security forces last thursday. anger at the government here is rising. 84 percent of the palestinian people say impulse that the palestinian authority is corrupt. so that's the 1st issue. the 2nd issue is that the p a has become an authoritarian regime. they are arresting activists, they are beating people in the streets. and last but not least, the palestinian people want to struggle for freedom wants a struggle for justice. the supplements are expanding and we see the p a and the p . a role has been assisting the occupation, preventing the post and the struggle seems like this rarely seen here. and large

number of security forces were stationed not far from this and did nothing we reached out to various members of the government. no one has so far given us a response. the level of intimidation over the media over the last couple of days has been immense. the most journalists have been beaten with sticks. we were severely intimidated not to film to bring down our live capabilities, and they continue to watch us to the point where we couldn't even take out our mobile phones. and all this prompted by a protest of only around 100 or so people. stephanie decker, al jazeera by law in the occupied west, back the desktop from the collapse of a florida apartment tower 3 days ago has risen to 9 with more than 150 people. still missing. rescuers have recovered for more bodies from the debris, but they say that that is some hope there might may be survivors in ad pockets on the rumble. the search for the missing has been hampered by fire, burning deep on the ground, but that is now under control. teams from israel and mexico have arrived to help

it also emanuel. this has a process and this process is very slow and the families are suffering greatly. what they want to know is what happened to their loved one, but this is a very slow process and everyone has to respect that. or from south side in miami, heidi joe castro has more on what might have caused the building to collapse. al jazeera spoke with structural engineers who say that it appears a must be a variety of everything going wrong at the same time. there's indication that this building in particular, suffered from maintenance issues and suffered from a design flaw in the construction. that was a fact the conclusion of a structural engineer, inspection of that very building just completed 3 years ago. it led to a plan for extensive renovation and repairs to the building. the plans were about

to happen and tragically, those fixes were not made in time. the other theory is that the ground upon which all of these high rise is, are built here in miami beach, is essentially say and, and organic phil rodd in raj from other parts of the ocean and put here many years ago in order to fuel this very rapid development that this region saw years ago. and the concern is that that land continues to shifts beneath the foundations of the building. and, and there's some evidence or may have been a sinkhole potentially, that opened up underneath this tower. that collapse all of these though, of course, are still theories when the stories of following the u. s. s. u, portland, is broken. it's all time heat record. as a historic heat wave sweeps through the pacific northwest temperatures, swords, and more than 42 degrees celsius on saturday,

ah, welcome back. main stories now, south africa's president has announced tough for restrictions as the country tries to stem a surging wave of the corona virus. fueled by the delta vary and an address to the nation. several rama post is that gatherings and alcohol sales will be found for 2 weeks and schools will close. this is thousands of migrant workers have been scrambling to leave the capital of bangladesh for tough you current of ours restrictions coming to force there in dot com. and and our other headline, a full day of protest of 10 violent in the way 5 after the death of the leading critic of the palestinian authority in custody. security forces clashed with protest is demanding resignation of president. when the fast in the news fighting

is intensified between yemen, the government forces and who's the rebels in the strategic mark region, leaving dozens of people that the oil rich area is the government's last stronghold . and it has implications for peace negotiations depending on who's in charge. warning that this report by charlotte balice contains flashes. the dusk and merab only illuminates the st on gimme government forces. darkness has done nothing to stop their recent offences. after almost 7 years of war, merab is the front line. the area is the saudi best government, last stronghold and northern human. it is rich and natural resources and both sides belief controlling merit means controlling peace, negotiation. the motto city has become a hub. unlike an operational room for the o. d coalition to attack em, and that's why they think by clayton nodded. this actually will,

will clear all know, 2 pm and hundreds have been killed since fighting escalated in merit in february since thursday. the government says the iranian, but these have renewed their assets, attacking them from the north, south, and west. the u. s. is fighting and marriage is a serious threat to achieving a truth. what time do you estimate of when we thank god, our morals are high and the tribes are joining to support the battle on the frontline merab used to be a relative safe haven. it attracted hundreds of thousands of people displaced by fighting and other parts of the country. and people tied up of the situation in march. 1000000 people found in his hands and people set up and the all one who backing the government under funding that bc's for them, the only hope for truth and all the peace in yemen who cease fire to miss alt this petrol station and merab earlier this month filling up his car was to his sag. he'd

taken his 2 year old daughter with him to a market that morning. they too had settled in merab after being displaced by fighting further. north tal here and la again were 2 of 21. people killed any buffalo, whether murder had happened. she was such a fun child. she loved having fun, a lot and light choking around her dad adored her. he was enough with her to give mila moved to los surrounded by leon's favorite toys and a battle looming. every louder fighting, intensifying is the prospect of peace fuel the war. shall at bellis o. jazeera, the leaders of georgia in egypt and iraq of promise to deepen economic and political ties. some in the rocky capital bank died. it was the 1st visit by energy option had a state iraq since $991.00. saddam hussein invaded quite monumental wide reports

from baghdad. hopeful to achieve economic integration with iraq, egypt president for to his cc and king got deliver. second of jordan arrived in baghdad. they were received by iraq, presidents, perhaps, and held discussions with prime minister, most of the company, intelligence officials and foreign ministers. also in discussions on investment security corporation. if you look at the school now ahead of the current projects in power, grade agriculture, transportation, and food, curious, as well as the financial bank in relation and infrastructure development. monday. there's also work on c transposed housing and reconstruction. cotton maggio and establishing a free trade soon on the border between iraq and jordan was also on the agenda along with constructing, grow to link the 3 countries transferring egyptian workers and electricity to iraq,

and constructing a pipeline to transfer oil from iraq to egypt. but despite having nearly 5000000 people unemployed, iraq could benefit the least. there have been also talked about human capital of egypt, but the iraq itself has almost $40000000.00 citizens. so there could be an investment in the people themselves at the same time. also, instead of buying electricity from other countries, whether that jordan egypt or even iran, iraq should invest in electricity grids within iraq itself. and it has failed in doing that because of the factors that i mentioned earlier. this comment is aimed at increasing trade between the 3 countries and bringing iraq back under the umbrella of our state. what this coalition is facing criticism for assistance on other causes in the middle east, booth egypt and jordan are portland, and

a book that includes so dairy b and they will nighted arab emirates, which are facing criticism for the rule in for minting the conflict in yemen. and the united arab emirates in libya, experts say if this coalition succeeds, it may decrease iran's gains in iraq, but with a new leadership expected to take over in a rock of 3 elections in october. what can be achieved at this summit is open to question that we're had al jazeera bothered, we go to france now where the far right has again failed to win even a single region and sundays run off election. exit polls show the mainstream political parties emerging victorious from the 2nd round of voting. they indicate that the center, right, conservative of secured 7 regions in my lap, mainland, from the center left, looks on course to control 5 regions. depends national rally failed to win the region seen as its best opportunity, its stronghold, provence could assure,

around must say a nice, but it was also a humiliating election night for the president and manuel macklin, his republican on the move party, which didn't win any regions either because he did that, i mean i'm more than ever determined to devote all of my energy and my will to rehabilitate politics. bring back its usefulness and its efficiency for the benefit of the french because the presidential election appears more than ever to be the election that will allow us to have a change in politics and in policies. and may the french give us their support in this mission, i'm calling on the french as early as tomorrow to build together. the alternative, the front needs will turn out for both rounds in the selection was very low, just study 5 percent estimated to voted in the run off. it is the final electoral test before next year's important presidential vote. conservative 5 year betron cemented his status is the center rights best chance of challenging that corner the pen in that upcoming election. so the mother says you like to know who i want to

speak directly to this front that we refuse to see that we refuse to hear that abstained on these 2 sundays. it's an emotional cry of a france that works every day, but that can no longer make ends meet. it's the cry of a france that is us to make big effort. but that only receives contempt or indifference in return. it's the cry of a fraud that respects the rule. is that everywhere the lower trampled with impunity . asher butler has more from paris. when the end of this election, france is pretty much divided between the traditional left the socialist from the allies and the traditional right. the conservatives and their supporters very good results for them. indeed, confirming what we saw in the 1st round, the selection very disappointing result. so for the far right leader marine, the penn national rally party failed to win any regions in the selection she had

really been hosting with a region in the south for from where i can say i've been in the lee. but in the end, he was knocked out by for conservative candidate. she is claiming for 5 to turn out was low. she says this election was not well organized, but they will of course be question being off with an a party as to why they did so badly. emmanuel monochrome, the french president, his policy republican move, also failing to win any regions. they'll also be a very disappointed republic on the move as a young policy was created by my cross spring, bought him to the presidency, but it is failed over the years to capture him faces imagination to win any wider grass roots support. nevertheless, i'm all saying that the regional election could be an indication of what is to come next year. we have the presidential elections and in 2022 in 2017 micro and penn were the front runners. and poll suggests that they could be the front one is in

2022. but no doubt, they will have to draw some conclusions and learn some lessons from these regional poles. life and me and mas journalist has become increasingly dangerous, since the coo, in february, 87 media was because it's been arrested since the general seized power. summer escaping to neighboring thailand. but it's tony chang reports from the border. it feels safe that either working from the shadows, part of a new life in itself. this journalist from mamma's hiding in thailand having fled the military regime at home. we can walk here. but like we stay in prison, we cannot go anywhere for she, it's been 9 years after leaving a previous military crackdown, then she was able to get legal status. this time she had to cross the border illegally. 10 years ago in thailand, no military government. now military government,

that is very different. earlier this month, 3 journalists from the democratic voice of burma, quickly sentenced and deported. after being arrested in the northern tie city of cheng mind, without the swift intervention of a 3rd nation, they could have been returned to me and ma, potentially facing lengthy jail terms. but journalist since side man ma and now faced with little choice and this report a live stream to the rest. the soldiers fired into his house. 87 journalists have been arrested since the qu, many facing charges under a special section of the penal code for making claims that could damage public tranquillity. even those operating with legal status. a concerns of the generals and thailand could be getting too friendly with the counterparts in men. most this really made many people fear of like an arrested arrest and also to be to book that . so that's why the people who right here and without any documents,

they really have to live with low profile. the security has been increased on the long and porous border, but it remains relatively easy to cross thailand has kept a tight control on its borders since the military coup and men. not only because it's concerned about a flood of refugees coming across, but also because of fears cove 19 could come with them. but the career of ours is unlikely to be the only reason these soldiers are trying to sniff out. dissident journalists have slipped across into thailand. tony ching al jazeera from the time in my border. thousands of asylum seekers awaiting on the mexico us bordering increasingly precarious and unsanitary conditions this month to bind the ministration did away with a trump error program under which asylum seekers had to stay in mexico while their cases were processed. and his manual rapid reports from til wanna many hope the robot means they consume cross the border,

legally a migrant camp if you want to mexico, some here or asylum seekers whose cases did not make it to court. under the trump administration's my group protection protocols or n p p, a recent rollback of this policy by us president jo bite. it has allowed some asylum seekers to enter the us would only those with active m. p. p. case of the muslim son is in asylum seeker from hunter, as was been waiting in mexico for the last 2 years. since she's hopeful of changing policy law was like me before the last lawyer told me a judge had closed my case and that i had to open a new one. but then i spoke with a different lawyer who told me my case was not closed. and that i still have a chance to enter the united states. what i want to do, my group protection protocol, also known as to remain in mexico program for sen, estimated 70000 people to wait for immigration hearings in cities on the mexican side of the border, we met abeline, also from honduras,

says he's been the victim of violence and even nabby since arriving in c one or 2 years ago. but a reopening of his asylum case means he might soon have an opportunity to cross the border. legally know if you wanna set it up. okay. maybe i have renewed hope because my lawyers see, have patience. wilma reopening in pay pay cases. i had almost given up, but thank god, cases are being reopened. if wilbur's asylum cases accept it, he could soon joined the more than 11000 people with active n p. p cases who have been allowed to enter the us in february. but there are many others were still waiting for guidance on what to do next. human rights groups estimate there to be around $3000.00 people living at this migrant. now the ongoing covered 19 health emergency means the border remains closed, disrupting the traditional us asylum process. now this means that for thousands of migrants and asylum seekers have no choice, but to wait here on this side of

a border. with more people who arriving every day, migrants rights, advocates warned that conditions of the camp are no longer sustainable. battlefield meant they come by, men, the campus in a terrible situation organized, crime has infiltrated it. there's disease there. risk people have suffered violence there. and i believe it's a ticking time bomb despite the phasing out of trump era policies like n p p, the byte it administration has yet to normalize the u. s. as silent process. experts say that until the system becomes more streamline. the crisis on this side of the border will only continue to worsen when winds up a little al jazeera. you want to mexico? ah, our main stories, the sound, the delta varying, is can to continue to cause a steep rise in covert infections around the world. south africa presidents has now

announced tough restrictions in the country, tries to stem a surgeon. 3rd wave of the virus or gatherings in the sight of alcohol will be found for 2 weeks from.
