about cuban city. so it's what it's underlining. this is the biggest political protest, and i can pick up the last 3 decades since 19 ninety's. all me has been just away from, from where i can see the young and i'm a good income child is on the t shirts getting, getting all my bills and mobilized for this nearby. that pos, if i can finish with my dance here in the background with all the people who say that the government living here in cuba. i know that some of those people with forced to participate because this is the way politics works in cuba. but also living here and people, i know that some of those people will, the further information. so what we're saying now is, is, is a face. so in some parts of savannah, between the people who support the government and the 3 and the people who do not become now the highly contagious delta variant is being blamed for

a rapid rise in corona virus infections, in se, asia, indonesia is running desperately low on oxygen, it's recording more than $35000.00 cases a day. and a new survey has found almost half of jakarta as population has had coded 19 at some stage. that's 7 times higher than official figures. thailand that's gone into locked down for 2 weeks with a nighttime curfew in place in the capital, bangkok and south korea's capital and surrounding areas have been moved to the strictest level of social distancing. will speak to rob mcbride in the south korean capital sol solved the 1st. let's get more on the situation in thailand. with tony chang in bangkok, tony said a 2 week locked down across the country. what does this mean on the ground? well, it means that people being told they have to stay at home unless they work in an essential industry such as food production or, or medical services. there is

a night time curfew between 9 pm and 4 am. and i think the government is really trying to put a block on the, on the daily transmissions which arising pretty close to about 10000 a day. that's what the government minister last week was saying, they expected it to go up to the problem. moves thailand's corporate in iraq in a hard place. it's trying also to open up. we've seen in the beginning of this month, the opening of the pocket sandbox, which is an initiative to allow vaccinated tourists to come back into the country. the try and kick stuff the, the, the part of the economy which is so reliant on tourism to accounts for about 20 percent of g d p here in town and people are really suffering. they have that business has been lost for 1516 months. and the government really wants to start up again. the problem is not that many people want to travel, the conditions they're having to go through to get into thailand. a complicated,

some have even managed to get hit and then found that the plane that they traveled on was carrying somebody in fact to recover it. so they're still having to go into a 14 day quarantine. so it's been sort of play with problems and i think the hope was that program, if successful, could be extended to other results around the country that i think has been put on hold for the moment. i think a lot of people, frankly, also we can see today in bank oh, people are moving around. they're not staying at home about 50 percent of a normal monday mornings traffic was out on the streets today. they also want to get to work they, they feel their lives have been put on hold. i think the opportune, many people feel the opportunity for the government to, to stop this transmission and his tracks was back in april. they didn't locked down properly. then i think many people feel that hello, they say this is only going to be 2 weeks. the situation with those riving infections could stretch on for many months to come. all right, to tony chang in bangkok, tony,

thank you for that. let's cross 7 out to run the bride. his lie for us in. so rob, so tough restrictions across the capital where you are the authorities. there are clearly worried rob i think what they're really concerned about, what is really alarmed them is the speed with which this 4th wave has really surge . that virtually a we've seen, a doubling of new case has been reported in the last few days. it's been consistently well over a 1000 new cases today, which is very high for south korea. now. part of it is being blamed on the war transmissible delta barrier. but it also combines, i think, with a general complacency here and from the government and admission that they've got some of them messaging wrong. what's happened is that as we've had the vaccinations rollout, we've got a round, a 30 percent of the population here of now had at least one jap. and there's a way of encouraging more people to get vaccinated as their numbers come up. the government has been announcing the listing of restrictions as more people get

vaccinated. so if you've had one job that the government says you won't be required to wear a mask in public if you're fully vaccinated, you'll be able to meet in large numbers. that old good news. but it has had the effect of creating the illusion that we are emerging from there. so people haven't been taking the kind of precautions that they normally do. take that we've seen a large number of clusters arising in the greater sol area and affecting people in their twenties and thirties, who are still largely vaccinated. that good news is that compared to previous waves, at least we're not seeing the same type of hospitalizations and deaths that we've seen previously. and that's because the people who are more vulnerable, the elderly, et cetera, are now at by and large, protected by their vaccinations. alright robert bride live for stay in. so rob, thank the who's now italy have beaten england to win

move to central america, there's also quite a bit of humidity on the cards for the yucatan peninsula. can coon sitting at 30 degrees celsius wet weather for beliefs and particularly heavy storms. for guatemala and the rain continues across costa rica. and edging down into panama, that sure weather update. the a football from spain trading, battling opponents on the pick up fighting fascism at home and abroad. quint bowling legend edit canton introduces stuff in the loan. the battle a wanting to use the beloved game to help himself and others survive the horrors of a natural concentration. can i what mo rebels on al jazeera? ah,

now, a former police officer turned a tourist gang leaders asking his supporters to join mass protests in haiti. jimmy traverse. yeah, better known as barbecue, says the president's assassination is an outrage. is accusing opposition. parties of plotting 70000000 murder. he's also lost support if they use their weapons in self defense. if the police crack down on that gathering when he know what was his, you know, many people from the opposition and thinking posey joined together to betray the president. it is a national and international conspiracy against the haitian i. our school, the groups to mobilize, take to the street, not like amanda exclamations about us estimation of the president. we had a problem with the president, but we have never said that foreigners can enter our theresa, kill the president. meanwhile, the us to send a delegation to haiti to assist in the investigation into president more use. the

fascination nation government initially requested troops from the u. s. to protect the port airport and other key infrastructure. the pentagon press secretary says officials will assess the security risk in the country. we are aware of their request by the haitian government, we're analyzing it just like we would any other request for assistance here at the pentagon. it's going through a review. i'm not going to get ahead of that process and today in interagency team largely from the department of homeland security and the f b, i are headed down to haiti right now to see what we can do to help them any investigative process. and i think that's really where our energies are best applied right now in helping them get their arms around investigating this incident and figuring out who's culpable, who's responsible and, and how best to hold them accountable going forward. that's where our focus is right now. and gallagher has more now from washington dc. well, this is what the us is calling a technical team, made up of department of homeland security and f b i. agents. and essentially, what they may do, or at least i think they will try and do, is add some legitimacy to any of the findings in the investigation into who

assassinated job know movies in the early hours of wednesday morning. that's as much as they can do at the moment because the conspiracy theories now surrounding the death of job know movies are really taking hold in haiti. wally security situation is worsening all the time because of course, in this nation at the moment there are now political arguments about who will be the new president when the next elections will be held and haven't been in the elections in a t since 2017. so this is a very precarious moment in which most patients are hiding in the homes. listening to the radio, watching tv, waiting for some kind of news about what will happen next. i'm in the situation is so bad that some gang members are holding their own press conferences saying they will fight on behalf of the haitian people. so this technical team from the us, if they can get to the bottom of this investigation, find out who funded these people who was behind it and why that may help in the short term. but i think also in the short term,

most patients are simply worried about their own security. a 50 truck convoy carrying vital food and health supplies is on its way to ethiopia water and to gray region. if your government said this week that it was allowing humanitarian flight entity, dr, but they must go by the capital to be searched. the us food shortage is integral. i have worse and dramatically despite a c spy that some 400000 people are estimated to be in famine with another 1800000 on the brink. i because for my political rivals have united to publicly challenge president allison what tara to form a presidential or bank bo and already gone on. betty had joined the opposition in saying what tara was reelection is unconstitutional. bag were returned to be shot last month after the international criminal court acquitted him of war crimes relating to violence. falling the 2011 election. miss susan, if we have a constitution, that means we have a collection of techs to guide us,

called body soap has dominated bulgaria in the past 10 years. but there are signs that the country has been growing weary of his leadership, and the allegations of corruption that swelled around him. they thought they would scare me off that they would put me down lambda most dangerous, but i'm scared. nothing at his heels. there are other contenders, including the anti establishment and party headed by singer and tv host, sloppy people. all the people of himself is not standing. his party had been neck and neck in the pulse with bodies of scarab. there is also, he still ivana, a lawyer and co leader of the democratic bulgaria coalition, who spoke to series of anti corruption protest in the country, one of the poorest in the european union. but itself has come increasingly on the fire of accusations of corruption, which he denies. allegations of embezzlement, intimidation and voter fraud have cost him support if he has continued to double down by accusing opposition. parties of electoral interference,

such as the situation is turbulent and unpredictable. what will come after the vote appears clearer. that is, the will to form a government that's coming from society itself. not so much from certain politicians, but this time it will be hard to bypass the people to live. even if bodies off does managed to win the most vote, he may still be unable to form a coalition government which could trigger yet another snap election later this year. if the public haven't already decided otherwise. sen, yeah, go out. there are thousands of people have gathered in bosnia governor to commemorate the 995 revenue and massacre. barre 19 newly identified victims of genocide 26 years after they were murdered. 16 men, 2 teenage boys and a woman were laid to rest. joining more than 6600 other victims. more than $8000.00 mostly, mostly men and boys were killed around shrub anita during the bosnian war but carried them a shave, which has more now from shanita. 26 years later,

19 victims of the 7th genocide have found there it is. the youngest, among them was just 16 years old when he was killed in the oldest had 63 years after the memorial. there is still a community that lives in reverence and some of the challenges they face. one of the challenges they face and they emphasize on is the genocide denial. and that was the theme of the collaboration. the genocide denial has the sub, the genocide, denial is the lay of the latest or the last stage of genocide and it can indicate on other future suffering. that is why this issue is really important for the victims buzzing and has to go mean that doesn't have a law that forbids genocide denial because the bosnian serbs have the power of you know, in the parliament and they are using that power to block block,

bringing that law into power on the other handling traditional community has tools in the office of the high representative to bring that law into power regardless of the parliament and veto in the parliament. there are some indications that the current high representative, valentin in school who is leaving office at the end of this month might in the next days or weeks bring the flow into power. and in a way to bring a legacy to his tenure as the as the high representative of international community in bosnia while fires are raging in the west of the united states with record breaking temperatures, forecast for california and nevada. it comes just weeks after another dangerous heat wave hit north america, in which hundreds of sudden death recorded alexia bryan reports me. this is the largest wild fire of the year, and california burning along the border with nevada. a combination of 2 fires, sparked by lightning, doubled in size between friday and saturday,

tend to break on hot day, they can take the heat, they overheat their warnings. the dangerous conditions could cause heat related illnesses. this latest surge follows the hottest june on record for the us and historic heat wave estimated to killed nearly 200 people. the searing temperatures baking visitors at california, joshua tree, national park, satisfies hires like this is a hot, it's never been hotter. it feels like we're in and out in the nearby death valley. also in the mojave desert reached 53 degrees celsius on saturday. 54 on friday. if confirmed it would be the highest recorded and more than a century and close to the highest ever measured on earth. the conditions of so extreme and the air so dry that some of the water dropped by aircraft to fight the fires evaporates before it reaches the ground. forecasters say,

about that, is there a $150.00 times or more, more likely to happen because of the human impact on the climate system. these are rare events that are becoming and incredibly more common because of climate change . and so there's really, there's really no doubt in the scientific community about that. you know, we're really getting to the key question. i mean we, what we're learning is that we cannot live with easily with climate change. the core of the problem is that the climate is changing faster than we can adapt right in the climate is changing because of human activity. so means we need to reduce emissions to sort to reduce the warming and reduce the suffering. but it also means because we've delayed action for so long that we need to take measures to adapt to the changes that have happened already. billionaire richard branson has flown to the edge of space fulfilling a life long dream, making space tourism a reality. the flight reached 80 kilometers above the surface of the earth where they experienced a few minutes of weightlessness. reynolds and space bought new mexico with more
