ah al jazeera ah, when ever you write down to the me the . ready this is al jazeera ah, hello, the, how about he did with the i'll just even use are coming to you live from don't. coming up in the next 60 minutes as far the situation. sparling. i have control wising and losing, and parts of johannesburg. south africa as president calls in the army to try to restore order rebel forces. and if you'll be a see great region, say they sees more territory as part of

a new offenses and i'm death. so any ra caps are a far ripped through a career of our association boards and the tell to variance running rampant 3 sy, fi facia, malaysia records as high as 5 are number corona, virus infections in a single day. and informed things are going well for the us store, started men's basketball team, the champions and suffered a 2nd street to have their title defense in token. ah, well, we begin this news, our insights, africa, where the police minister is warning food supplies could run eyes if the leasing and violence continues. soldiers have been deployed in provinces rates across the country. they're responding to days of unrest that was initially, spock faster former president jacobson was jailed for 15 months. at least 10 people

had been killed and hundreds more. arrested. let's get more now from from eda miller. she joins this live form at johannesburg for me to just give us a sense of what the situations like, right, know where you are. wherein alexander, in the know solve to handle where new thing and ryan have continued through the nice into the morning just behind us. you'll see some police here who are trying to manage what's happening. yeah. there are number of stores on the rights of the streets. this road has been pressed entirely and looters continue to try and access some of the stalls on the rights of us. and police are trying to keep them but, but we are also seeing the crowd becoming increasingly hostile towards police. they've begun throwing stones and police are using rubber bullets and ti, i guess,

to disperse them. and just behind us, there are a number of people crowded around the corner of the road just waiting for police to move so that they can return to the stores. but i'm sure there you can hear police continue to fire rubber bullets. and that's and that's continuing as they try to keep the crowds back down the street from it or the president of faith, africa address the nation. we understand twice in 2 days. no. okay. here's a man that has been shot right beside you. i was going to ask you if this come the situation that's whole. but given the distress that that mon, on our streets is clearly and it would appear that it hasn't not the effect it was looking for. ok. all right, we're going to move to the left, the space. but we are seeing some of the people in this area run away from police.

you've mentioned how president, rama post has full control of africans twice. now in 2 days. and any 2nd address specifically, he's asked people to abide by the law. he appeals to those involved in some of the stuff that's not happening at all. and this is why the military has been deployed specifically to quote luna towel. and as you see there, people don't disperse. this is the difficulty police having their struggling to manage they really struggling to manage. we know the military's been deployed, but that hasn't had an impact yet. they have been called by sell that for the president for 30 to do far more and there's been

criticism, but they acted too late. we've also seen the minister of defense say that the extent of the looting in more specifically the unprecedented, they didn't expected. and this is where the criticism is coming from. so if they've not managed to get a group on what's happening, they've acted too late night for me. you mentioned that the army as being cold saying what we're looking at. these appear to be policemen. and we can see in the, in the, in the further away in our screens, we can see there are people gathered there. there are people on the other side behind where our camera position is. everything looks like the police are right numbers there. what was the sense that you're guessing? i mean, are the police i numbers are the waiting for on forces to come in. humphrey got control of the situation and sol felisa absolutely overwhelmed. they're out numbered. as we've seen in the last few

minutes, they try and push people back. they try and target lou to specifically get them out of stores just as soon as they fire roberts, fire rubber bullets. or just as soon as they move away from any of these positions, people return to the stores. and this is also one of the elements that's important is the fact that people aren't terribly scared by the police. so by police presence, i mean just behind us, we've got about 4 or 5 police offices, one police vehicle, the other that was stationed there will 2 vehicles now, the others that was stationed for the last 3 i was about to move on to other parts of this particular township we williams switzer yesterday, and when we spoke to police and asked them if they were managing the responses was, what can we do? they have said to us that they simply can't manage that their,

that their offices are engaged across a number of hot spots. and in, so it's a particularly yesterday. well, here we see police trying to disperse people. and so what so absolutely, no one of the largest move, the police simply stood back and watched. in fact, it was traffic officers who were there and not crowd control, specifically who usually tossed. we're trying to manage this type of situation just yet to see the military soldiers on the ground in all courts of alexander. and here we see none at all. just quickly for me to we can see people running in the far back go and the take to for all of this was of course, the june, the former president zoom. i mean, is it bigger than the snow because these riots and the violence seems to be spreading if there's a kiss of a former president, same or, or other, other factors that play

the protests have certainly escalated far beyond the initial demonstrations. we saw at the end of last week and over the weekend, and that's when the early days of the former president, imprisonment in the court zulu natal. we do know his supporters had come out to say that they wouldn't accept his imprisonment, that they would defend him. that shouldn't happen on the night of his wrist. but they continue to demonstrate saying that he should be released. now since the early phase of these riots, the climate has changed significantly in that they are a significant amount of people out in specific hotspots, in many townships in counseling natal, as well as quoting who are as the president has said, just taking advantage of the opportunity and he has said that they are criminal elements involved in what's going on. and i think because of the, the difficulty in trying to manage what's going on in that it's no longer around

former president, tomorrow alone, there are a number of political and economic elements to this. so that because been in level 4 up though now for the past 2 weeks, it's been over a yeah. of a broader lockdown with a normal situation has deteriorated significantly and unemployment sits now. it's more than 50 percent. and this is why we could see more of what's happening in that people are increasingly this person resorting to these type of x. ok survive. ok for me to live brady as the very latest life form at john berg for me to stay safe and will talk to you in the hours ahead. i'm sure thank you very much in deeds i las vegas about the use and i rebel forces in t. great, say they've seized a major tone in a new offensive in ethiopia, and a rebel spokesman assistant turn over riah was taken after federal and i'm 100

forces withdrew. it's the most intense fighting thing since rebels to the main city of mckelly in june. well, in the last few hours, the un human rights council has passed a resolution expressing deep concern about the pieces in te gray is calling for a withdrawal of our train troops, which it says are exacerbating the conflict. now this comes is facing, is also being ported in several refugee camps in the region. catherine soil has more from whom era in te gray region. well, what we're hearing is that the pdf to great defense forces on making. 1 calls and. 1 we are told re to a town called korean. it's not clear whether they are in control of a lock on the. 5 calendar, right, we have seen you very difficult to verify dependency this video because

communication is still down in many pas of d. grove. we have seen video of what appears to be in forces and special forces withdrawing from that. 1 number and this is all in or. # been hearing from the degree of leadership from the defense forces who is saying that then now. a in the south and the west which are still disputed and we just will be on calls mostly by forces as being back to the land. and that's what they want to take areas like where i am, who married before november, who marah and another town called my condra was. # in control i wasn't being abused by the grand regional force. 5 on free to many to grants lead this areas, the areas are being controlled by higher forces. mike hydra,

which is about 3020 kilometers from whom airway is a town where some of the wasp atrocities against v as to place in november more than 600 people kim was killed. most of them laborers who have come from different possible to have especially from funds and mainly belonged to the grand. 2 i'm is. 5 i'm are, is he a blame the to grand fight as will those carrying many of the to grants next to the gun. 5 if you speak to them, then they blame is, and it's militia also, you know, forcing out them out of this region so that the grand for this thing. they're also heading west. 5 is where we are seeing a lot of. a i'm hiring for this would be interesting. this was the oldest thing that this log belongs to them and it will not go without a fight. well,

figure quick look at just how this conflicts and folded its e p life dominated ethiopia politics for nearly 30 years. and so, prime minister came to par in 2018, be ordered a military operation against the group in te gray in november after he said it attacked army bases. well the c p says it was unfair. the targeted t grey opposition parties say more than 50000 people had been killed while the un says more than 400000 have been pushed into famine. while last month the african union launched an independent inquiry and so alleged human rights abuses in the region. after widespread accounts of massacres and sexual violence against civilians, let's get more now from william davis and he's the senior if you p analyst with the international crisis group and joyce was by skype from london. skids, have you with us here on al jazeera people who don't follow this conflict as closely as your sales. i mean, just the places that was supposed to be

a see foreign place. so why are the t p ls so facing? what happened recently is that the federal army and the federal administrators left the gray that was off the result of 8 months of fighting. where the 2 grand forces were, where the great and regional government was pushed from power, then mounted a sort of insurgency campaign. and gradually strengthened, led to the federal withdrawal. it was after the federal withdrawal that the sci fi was announced by the federal government. but that was not accepted by take res needed. the primary reason for that is that during the course of this federal intervention, as you heard from catherine har, regional state has taken over administrative control of parts of what was on the gray and administrative control. and now the 2 grand forces are fighting. to remove that control and they also have

a humanitarian motive to do so they say that is because since the federal withdrawal that has been something like a federal blockade on to gray, preventing aid from getting to the region as time in conditions spread across tickler as this conflict is far from over there. now you mentioned that humanitarian aspects that the guy and claim that aid can get in rural, getting reports from actual songs, press that this facing in refugee camps inside t. good. why would this be just to help us understand the complex dynamics here? because there are so many different sides in this conflict. it's really difficult to trying. i'm not going to comment directly on those days. i have a report. i would need more information about that. but essentially, when the federal government and the federal military and the return military were

in control of gray, controlling main roads and checkpoints. so we've been a difficulty of getting a to the parts of t grey, where the 2 great defense forces were holding territory and gaining strength. now that the federal forces have withdrawn from gray and era trays, ministry, and gone to positions somewhere close to the dispute that international border. there is now a problem of getting aid to to gray, rather than distributing a with integrate. there are also other complicated dynamics as you state with regard to era tray and refugee population as a pre existed in 10th grade. and there was also a huge number of internally displaced people and to great some of those and very vulnerable conditions. and many of those have fled weston, c gray, when the horror forces and the i'm har. administrators came in and claimed territory the as a territory. ok, william davis and breaking things down for us. thank you very much indeed for joining us from london. thank you very much for anyone still had all miss news are

including the left did it. we're given the truth in cuba. the un concludes to your investigation and crimes committed in the gambia. we speak with the victims, families who are seeking closure for 25 years. and in sports radiation football champions get ready to test themselves, came from unfamiliar. all was coming up in school. iraq's prime minister as promising accountability. after a fire, it covert 19 board killed 83 people is held in emergency meeting and ordered the rest in suspension of a number of officials in the 3 year. in april, a similar incident led to widespread processed south casio lopez for the n reports

. the lifeless bodies covered the floor of this hospital board in the iraqi city of no cd. most of the victims had covered 19, but it was the fire that killed relative or no place with the green pen of i tend to find the one moments before this was the scene, emergency crews to fire. as it rip through the building, amid payoff families desperately trying to find one verse less up, it was a little of the of the about what happened tonight of the same hospital is the catastrophe market club, but i'm a little, it's a tragedy to slip. let me know,

though rock has to suffer anguish and calamity. my desperation turned to anger. at least 2 police vehicles were torch by serious protesters. they say the government's mismanagement and neglect of medical facilities are to blame. it's the 2nd time this year, a large fire has killed corona virus, patients at least 82 people died in about that hospital in april. when an oxygen tank exploded and sparked a blaze from analysts say, not much has changed since the issue has and they know that they need to blame corruption and they're going to, you know, rhetorically, they'll come out and say, this is all bad. but their actions rarely go with their work, they will continue. and that's why sadly, this is not the last time we're going to see. iraq is dying because of the decisions made by their political leaders. the hospital ward open 3 months ago to

help curb a search of corona, virus infections. but the fire raises questions about wrecked manchild health systems. and these families say they deserve answers and accountability courts. hello. this is a young or to 0. religious enduring its worst ways of corona virus so far, and it's reported a record 115 since you infections in the past 24 hours of missiles are overwhelmed and medical workers say there's a shortage of buying equipment including oxygen and venture leases. well, the surgeon infections is being blamed on the delta variance, but also gatherings house during the muslim festival of eats in. denisia is also in the grid for over a worse than i break with a record for the thousands and you infections reported on monday. people are still having problems, getting oxygen and medication is hard to come by. the case is also being blamed on the delta, the variance. well, let's get more and i from florence louis. she joins us from equality and florence,

malaysia, where you are reporting its highest number, open sanctions since the start of the pandemic. i mean, how are the authorities responding to this well, malaysia has been under a state of emergency since january when the country was seeing a rise in current of virus cases. a nation wide lockdown was imposed in june. but even with these measures, the government hasn't been able to contain the spread of the current of virus. the delta vary and the current virus is not just more transmissible. it's also more likely to lead to hospitalization. so hospital facilities in the country over stretched, some hospitals have been converted to taken on the cove at 19 patients. armed forces have been mobilized to build the field hospitals. one hospital had to set up camping beds on its grounds to cope with a surgeon patients. other hospitals have had to suspend outpatient treatment to

prioritize the treatment of cove at 19 patient. now this underscore is just how serious the situation is here and just how much strain of being placed on health facilities and medical workers. there's also a lot of government, there's also a lot of anger director that the government with people saying the lockdown, which has created so much economic hardship hasn't been proven to be effective in containing the spread of the cone of virus. now the government strategy now is to inoculate as much of the population as quickly as possible. although health officials admit that this will take some time. but in the last month or so, they've made a real push to ramp up the vaccination rates. and we're seeing the rates increase pretty sharply, but even so, because malaysia got up to a pretty slow start, it still means that only around 11 percent of the population is fully vaccinated and foreign, the full happening a militia, but the don't for variance. corona viruses also really proven to be quite

a challenge across the rest of safety stations at so we're seeing almost a similar situation in many countries across se, asia, and that's also driven by the more infectious delta variant of the corona, virus, indonesia and vietnam reported rec, court daily, new infections on monday. now the vietnam had already imposed limits on people's movements late last week and major parts in major cities in the country. and it extend those curbs to other areas on monday. now and officials are saying that they're still expecting to see cases go up before they start to come down in indonesia, those cubs and people's movements were put in place about 10 days ago on the islands of java and bali. now as senior minister says, it's hoping that the numbers will start coming down next week, but in the meantime, the country is experiencing a shortage of oxygen supply and met since non law is another country that's in the

midst of its most serious wave of current of virus infections, medical work is there a, there's a shortage of oxygen supply, or the gentle denies this. now a civil disobedience movement has made it more difficult to contain the spread of the co and virus, and also the sense of general distrust of military authorities. now one thing these countries have in common is a low vaccination rate, and that's why we're also seeing a real push to drive a vaccination campaigns, mass vaccination campaigns in these countries. okay, for honestly their life from college to florence. thank you. to spain, small popular tourist regions rolling at you measures sabrina and growing karone of ours cases. catalonia is losing private and public gatherings to 10 people. this is all public activities must finish by midnight on valencia curfew is being imposed during the early hours of the morning gatherings are restricted to 6 people.

competing teams started arriving as a newly opened to the pit village in japan's capital. it will have more than 11000 athletes will have to live on the cobra restrictions threat games. i think it will be subject to very cool virus tests and masks will be mandatory. so q is on the state of emergency fall and arrives in infections. canyon health officials say they're having trouble get some shots into arms and convincing public vaccines are safe. roughly one and a half percent of the population has been vaccinated. so far. that's according to the house ministry, a nation wide curve. here's some place until july 27th. the limit the spreads of the virus. the one challenges that we have is that most of the people, i'm not coming for the initial because of the meet me. there are more thing that dyslexia will make them important that i will still believe that this kills them

quick. so it's a big challenge to us is which most countries in africa, because now people still have the misconception. so we are not able to dispel them . and also for their vaccines so, so we still have shortages, we do not get enough vaccine for us for the for now who want it. this is still a big challenge to long keys at testing sites and bangkok prompted to tie government to rethink it strategy to combat the virus alpha authorities and approve the use of at home testing kits which will be available in stores next week, but less curate than pci tests rule nikosa as 3 us dollars, whom isolation also get approved for those with a symptomatic or mild infections. if the changes will relieve pressure on the capitals health care system. well the delta variance is really been driving this lea, a surgeon, cases, whites around the world. here's what we know about it so far. it was 1st attacked

in india back in april and spread some more than 100 countries in the u. s. modeling shows the variance is now responsible for more than half of all new infections. well, experts say spreads more easily because of the stations which help a lot shown for sales in our bodies because pharmacies constantly new tape. research is still investigating. if this straight makes people more unwell with w h ones that delta will likely become the dominant strain of the crew. and virus very soon says, of all cases spreading quickly and high vaccination countries, places with low vaccination rates fair. even worse. well let's get more now from dr . deep to go to sunny. she's a clinical epidemiologist and senior lecturer at queen mary university of london. jones is by skype from cambridge to happy withers. i'm old enough to remember when the british variances cause and panic or the alpha variance is it's now known as

just explained says, why is the delta variance so much worse? so the death in his honey transmissible in about within 40 to 60 percent more transmissible than the alpha lead into which we already know what more transmissible in the original radius. so in total, this lady is about 2 times more transmissible than our regional gradient, which makes it very easily spreadable through the air. the 2nd thing is that it is more able to escape vaccines that will be directed against the original radius. and there is a significant degree of escape the after one back seen, but less so off to to those is that that has important impact at immunity at population level. 3rd, people already mentioned, we think it's more and more likely to go off that location than these studies. and some regions also suggest just that it's more likely was death. and all of that make it really, really bad combination, which is now leading to a rapid spread,

as you said, across the globe in all regions as gains dominance. you mentioned there that the cell to very and can a, the vaccines, we know that large chunks of the population worldwide don't have any vaccine at all . i mean, what does this mean in terms of exiting this pandemic? i mean, so the people who have been vaccinated in this period can evade the vaccines. i mean, what happens now? are we going to need a new breeds of vaccines or is this variant? just going to have to rip its way through various populations worldwide before the panoramic hands. so the one good news is that although there is a level of evasion. busy again, you know, protection against getting that of miles isn't that it does tend to protect against disease. if you've taken 2 daughters, which is very good, it means that the people who take into those are less likely to get hospitalized

and die. but it does mean that in unity is likely to wayne foster, particularly people older and more wonderful who tend to mountain your immune response to begin with, are likely to be protected for a period of time. i need to do this and also means that might have a lower impact on track so people might, will vaccinate, it might still be able to get infected and be able to spread the baby. and so i think over tells us that this is not a virus that we can live with. i mean, we are seeing this virus evolve and the to a new how do you transfer me to believe every few months then which then takes over across the world and leads to another such the only way to prevent this sort of bias that patient and protect our precious vaccine resources is to prevent transmission and that's not just in the regional level, but in a global level. we know that many countries don't have adequate access to vaccines diaz and it will be a long time perhaps even one or 2 years before.
