cannon. the world's most famous film festival makes a come back after a break because of current about we begin in indonesia, which is facing the worst corona virus outbreak in se asia, indonesia now importing emergency austin supplies and preparing backup medical facilities as infections continue to saw. so let's take a look at the situation in the country with the johns hopkins university of cobra, $900.00 truck up. on tuesday, the daily number of cases hit another record high, a more than 31000. the government expects that number could double in total, indonesia had more than 2300000 cases. and 61000 death hospital is in the city of sort of by turning away patients and the health care system in the capital jakarta is that 90 percent capacity. we're jessica washington join us live from the city of

because that's east of the capital jakarta. jessica. so indonesia now recording record number of infections and rising death and the health care system clearly buckling under the strain. well, that's exactly right. and even those record numbers would still be considered a conservative count because of the low rates of testing here in indonesia. and you can see behind me the impact of the strain on the health care system. this is a covert $900.00 symmetry in because see just on the outskirts of to carter and the work of the finally taking a break just to pray. but relatives have been coming here to grieve for their loved ones, many of whom were not even given the chance of medical treatment, the chance of survival. because hospital here in jakarta are so overwhelmed they have been forced to turn away patients in across java as well. not just here in the capital. we have a situation where doctors are resorting to treating patients in cop hawks in

lobbies and in cordele is because they don't have enough room in emergency rooms or intensive care units. and the government says it is striving to relieve some of the strain on hospitals by adding additional hospital beds by creating more isolation facilities. but the reality is, is that indonesia does have a shortage of doctors. and that shortage has become more pronounced in these recent weeks. as indonesia grapples with this crisis, some doctors say that from their perspective, the health care system has already collapsed because they are in that terrible position of having to turn away critically ill patients. the health ministry, however, says that they prefer to say that it is rather than plots. it is simply over capacity. but really the, however you want to phrase it. the reality is, is that people are dying at home without even getting the chance of medical treatment. because the hospitals are so overwhelmed and they're desperate relatives that trying whatever medication they can trying to source auction oxygen from

various stores around jakarta. but even that is becoming increasingly difficult, increasingly expensive, and people are crying out on social media asking for assistance with sourcing oxygen would sourcing plasma and various medications. that is the situation in indonesia and just how desperate things have become jessica. so what's happening then with indonesia vaccination rolled out is that locked in to make any difference to this crisis? well, the vaccine rollout started in may, but it did get off to a bit of a slow start and the health industry says they tribute some of that flow start because of the fasting month of ramadan. they say many people may not have wanted to get vaccinated at that time because they will fasting. and since then, as this crisis has really picked up, we have seen a deliberate effort from the government to increase vaccination rates. we've seen vaccinations at stadiums outside move, trying to vaccinate people wherever they can,

and the presidents targets vaccinating around 1000000 people or more each day have so far increasingly been met. but the reality is, is that this crisis is happening now. and the majority of the population is not vaccinated. indonesia is home to more than 270000000 people among them only 14000000 people of vaccinated. alright, had jessica washington life in the, in the city of because outside jakarta, jessica, thank you. and south korea is reporting its highest daily corona virus count since late december, the country. so more than $1200.00 cases on wednesday, the government's put off eating some restrictions of cases rise and says it would consider a tougher rule if needed. about 30 percent of the population has received at least one vaccine dose. australia's biggest city sidney has extended its locked down by a week to contain the pass putting delta various. stay at home orders introduce last month were due to end on friday. sydney has reported more than 350 infections,

a temporary setback. situation will not continue and it's all on. are not able to reject the audio or did the think would be taken over by game and we're getting the, the and we will watch or operate and so on. and we will capture if the by net ministration is worried about these developments. and the taller bonds commitment to a peaceful future. it's not saying so. analysts say there is reason to be concerned said the interest of the united states in the interests of countries in the region to ensure that the afghan government does not collapse. but we're heading to a pretty dark place at the moment. some on the streets of bog room already think the dark place has a right to be filling in. if you can see now, a lot of districts have surrendered to the taliban. even some afghan forces have fled to tajikistan and i'm telling you that afghan forces will not be able to secure our country if there will be no foreign support. we will witness once again, civil war here. a pivotal or perhaps inevitable moment for the afghan people. after

earthquakes that have been identified tremors, that last sometimes up to 5 minutes. but the major concern at this point is really the safety and security of so many civilians live within the course. so call me around because they are info. so communities around the lake, for example, you and yourself also issued a statement yesterday basically warning that silver and are at risk of rep respiratory diseases and many civilians who also they hope that they won't have to stay in the back to asian centers for too long because of the fear of the pandemic, the government then assures the public, though, that they're doing their best to impose the, the, the minimum required to house protocol that is in place in order to assure that there won't be any outbreak in these. if back you ation centers, columbia, a special piece court has accused a general 9 soldiers and a civilian of murdering 120 people between 20072008. it says they were falsely

presented as rebel fighters who died in combat. it's the 1st time the tribunal, as accused members of the army and connection with a so called false positive scandal. barella ship, like you didn't get. the evidence indicates that the 11 accused a criminally responsible for the war crime, homicide, and a protective person and crimes against humanity, murder and force disappearance. according to british columbian penal code and the room statute of the international criminal court, the a 120 victims identified by the tribunal for peace were assassinated in a defenceless state by members of the security forces with no actual combat involved. i don't for frank, i was a lawyer and form administrator for usa id. he says these charges should not come as a shock. i'm not surprised, quite frankly, i was in columbia was an administrator for 6 years from the take take over the real big government through its 1st term. so i visited the area and visited north

descent and there and good to my own. and i'm not surprised for this reason. this is a very brutal, ambitious civil war. both sides commit atrocities. we tried to investigate these matters. it was very difficult, but i can tell you just as an aside, for example, as i visited these, these war zones, we would have to fly in the morning, fly out in the late afternoon because they're surrounded by guerrillas. so it was a very tense situation where unfortunately the rules laws were thinking for both sides. talking about the government very difficult to enforce. i personally raised the issue with president to leave it at the time at the request of senator leahy and others and our congress and with the columbia basket, the u. s. at the time luis moreno, they vigorously denied these things. i don't think these were the killings that were order from the top, but significant individuals and high ranking officers, including a general apparently were involved in this. again, one of the difficulties in this conflict is that many of these zones were far

removed from the government. and many of these individuals who probably died were suspected act of us and left us not combatants. so they were really we have they are or crimes. but i believe that probably the number is far in excess. so with the charges we see today there's just no question. it was such a long, long, complex involving really half the country in a very, very vicious war. 20 had people say a dead after a plane crash in russia as far east. the twin engine, a and 26 aircraft disappeared from a radar, as it was about to land in the heavy fog on the remote come chop cut peninsula, such as a found the cross side on the side of a cliff. none of the $22.00 passengers and crew, i believe, have survived. the plane was almost 40 years old and with a type of aircraft that's been involved in several crashes and recent years. a former presidential hopeful and bella ruth has been sentenced to 14 years in prison

girls. he says, the appointment doesn't necessarily signal and a meaningful change when i listen to her, say, an important step forward on the long path towards reconciliation to me and to many ambitious people. this signal that we should expect from her the same slow pace of successive canadian governments over many decades, including the current government. to me is very troubling in this context that for a country that is being accused of genocide by its own federal commission, one of the national inquiry intimacy, murdered business women and girls confidently is still signaling to us that it's going to take a slow measured approach i do not believe that genocide is a crime that should be tolerated for any amount of time, let alone the long path towards reconciliation alluded to by the new governor

general. i think that it deserves immediate attention because well, as someone who's also formerly worked in indigenous governance, i know that indigenous government like the i t k of which she was president and the m f. c f. and are heavily dependent on the canadian government for their funding. and kennedy uses that dependency to coerce indigenous governments to do work as canada sees fit. so it's my belief that the selection of simon by prime minister trudeau is likely because he's comfortable with her past track record that, that she will rock the boat very much and that she will told the line and protect the government of canada. we need something more courageous than that right now. now, a new art insulation in mexico promises to mercy visitors in the mind of the artist frida kahlo this week marks collars birthday. and while exhibitions are being held
