pinning the frustration is an economy in crisis. one that is struggling to emerge from africa, the worst cool with epidemic lock terms and restrictions of pushed unemployment. so record high of 32 percent that goes up to 42 percent among young people will go lives now to for me to miller. she joins as from looks like a supermarket in so we're so familiar to me what's been happening, where you are well, we just want to give you an idea of the extent of some of the damage and looting that's been seen in several areas in how tank this is a butchery in deep cloth. in waco, it's amongst other stores within a more. and as you can see, the shelves have been stripped. fair. there's nothing left. we spoke to security guards who work? yeah. and they say that that's the looting began on monday with
4:03 pm
a smaller group that came into the more but before they knew which the crowd was too huge to manage. and what they're particularly angry about is that they called police with them. and they say they will of little help. first, they were slow to arrive and then by the time they gotcha the crowd and the number of looters was just too big for anyone to try and push away from the small. and now this is what's left further down. there is a bank where the atm has been completely destroyed. in fact, 2 different banks, clothing stores. and the looting began at a supermarket just of just further down. and this really is what's left and in many spots in how thing will looting has occurred. this is really what it looks like now . and for me, the i mean was this really a bites? we understand the balsam anger. after the jailing of former president jacob zoom, but banks are being listed, sharps runs back to me. surely there aren't that many people in south africa,
4:04 pm
her furious with that judicial decision. this did begin with the imprisonment of the former president jacob's duma. and just before i get into that, i also want to read out a tweet that came out about 4 minutes ago from the jacob zoom out foundation. and this is his foundation when he's a patron and that has often been treating him the last few days around his incarceration. and they've just said peace and stability in south africa is directly linked to the release of president duma with immediate effect. it was just pure malice. think call so right, president obama, while it's litigation on his detention without trial case, that's what they're calling. it continues people all angry. many of them in court through natal, around the imprisonment of the former president. they say it's on constitutional. they say that he's been detained without trial, the constitutional court to the commission of inquiry, specifically. that's where he was supposed to have testified,
4:05 pm
and he refused to say that he wanted the commission checks in that matter, to be recruited. he didn't go up to the commission. he was then found in contempt of court by the constitutional court. and this is some of the angle we seeing in response to that he was jailed last week for 15 months. now looking at the street from the foundation day linking the right thing, the looting, the violence that we're seeing there, linking it to the imprisonment of the former president. but we also know this widespread violence and writing is also about more than that. you're in south africa, it is linked to the political and economic situation. and you know, we want to exonerate township, which is an impoverished challenge, one of the poorest in halting specifically a place where they have been a number of the protests around service delivery and discontent. with the government, we are seeing the initial response to the former president's imprisonment. now morphing into protests around the political and economic situation where there is
4:06 pm
mounting unemployment. ok, but for me to launch to unpack so we will explore this with you in the hours to come, but for night, for me to motor. thank you very much in deeds. let's thinking i'd see if your peer were rebel forces and t gray, say they've seen some major time in a new offensive back rebels forces. as the time of riah was taken after federal and i'm horror of forces with drew wilson tense fighting scenes and rebels to the main city of mckayla in june. in the last few years, the year and human rights councils passed, the resolution express and deep concern about a peace is in t grey. its calling for the withdraw very train troops, which it says exacerbating the conflict. it comes as fighting has also been reported in several refugee camps in the region. let's take a quick, quick conference on full dates, a t p. let dominate 30 fuel in politics in the 30 years until prime minister came
4:07 pm
to power in 2018. i ordered the military operation against the group in t gray in the vendor. he said the tax army bases with tpl s claims that they were being on fairly targeted. t gray opposition policy say more than 50000 people have been killed or the un says mana, 400000 having pushed into famine. last month the african union launched an independence inquiry into a ledge. human rights abuses in the region after widespread accounts of massacres. and sexual violence against civilians. will my brides in is the strategic advisor was some research that's the think tank focusing on politics and security in the home of africa. he joins us by skype form, and i will be happy with us on the news, or i will give you some of the contacts and the backgrounds here. but let's focus on that. new military push the grinds of maids. what do you think they're hoping to
4:08 pm
achieve? here well they, they've taken now essentially all of southern te greg and the leadership has announced that it intends to liberate every inch of 2 grand territory. so i think what we're seeing is the 1st of several offences that are likely to take place over the coming weeks. if the southern plank of to greg is now considered secure, then i would expect it to grow and defense forces to focus their attention to the north where there are still eritrea and troops inside to greg near the under the border areas. and then also to push west to into lands that have been annexed by neighboring how to state are claimed as to our land and are now
4:09 pm
under the occupation of i'm how to special forces and militias. and that, that future is going to be particularly important because to gray is essentially under and embargo. and the p d. f is anxious to open a corridor for both humanitarian supplies and presumably for its own needs as well . and so, so let's talk about the humanitarian situation. there. are that see gray liberation funds? are they likely to get this corridor opens? because the un i've been saying that hundreds of thousands of people are not in famine. certainly the situation is dire at the best of times. i mean, what hope do you think there is of this humanitarian situation into dry, improving with these latest developments? well, it doesn't look good. despite the federal government announcing that it would allow humanitarian access, resume, manager, and flights lead agencies do their work. very little has happened. flights have not
4:10 pm
resumed to macaulay. so some a workers have not been able to return food and other much needed goods. have been tied up in bureaucratic procedures are held at checkpoint in neighboring i'm how to and after our region. so they've only been very small number of convoys with food reaching to drive an edition. the federal government has essentially imposed the sort of see john to greg cutting off on telecommunications, shutting down electricity, and preventing all movements in and out of the, of the state borders. so it's essential for the t d. f. if the government won't allow aid into the region, then they're going to have to fight their way to the sudanese border and to see if they can attract assistance. that way. if this legal and humanitarian turns to
4:11 pm
effectively this region in these refugee comes under siege. well, i can't speak as to whether it's legal the united states has characterized it as early parts of this conflict as ethnic cleansing. and i think the level of violence and systematic atrocities against civilians, destruction of food crops slaughtering of the, the livestock that they need. destruction of seeds that they would have been in theory, they would have already planted for the farming season. all at this suggest a campaign that at least approaches genocidal intent. if not simply ethnic cleansing as the americans have characterized, as you can say. but out of time, but it was great to get your thoughts and your perspective that's not brides in strategic advisor with some research. thank you. ron's prime minister as

4:22 pm
more likely to infect a person such that they're going to be more serious and they're going to need hospice. okay. so it's the same story across the region where you're not only having a search and the number of new cases. you also seeing medical facilities being of a stretch and such as the case in indonesia where recorded its highest number of new cases on monday it had already put in place restrictions in people's movements on the islands of java and barley, but it's still recorded really high numbers now a senior minister said it is expecting the numbers to start coming down next week. but in vietnam were also seeing a similar story. vietnam was a country that last year had been praised for its efforts in containing the colon, a virus, but recorded its highest number on the monday display. haven't put in restrictions on movements last week and extending them to more areas on the monday. now another country that seeing a surgeon kona virus cases is myanmar when medical work as a people i experiencing a shortage of oxygen,
4:23 pm
although the gentle denies this and what's making the situation worse. there is a civil disobedience movements that started in february and opposition to the coo and a general distrust of the military authorities. meaning more people are reluctant to not only get tested, but are also wary of being taken away to an ice of a cove at 1900 isolation unit because they're worried about whether or not they're going to be able to come back. now what these countries have in common is low vaccination rates. so there's also a real effort real pushed by these countries to boost the vaccination rates. including getting more doses, more supplies of vaccines from different countries, different sources really rolling out mass vaccination campaigns and also addressing vaccine hesitancy to spain's most popular serious regions. ruling at you measures is to rename the growing convers cases. catalonia is limiting, private, and public gatherings to 10 people. it says, all public activities must finish by midnight with valencia curfew is being imposed
4:24 pm
during the early hours of the morning. gathering sar restricted to 6 people. kenyon, health officials say they're having trouble getting shots into arms and convincing the public faxes a safe, roughly one and a half percent of the population is the vaccination. so far, according to the health ministry, a nationwide curfew is in place until july 27th to limit the spreads of the virus. well, the filter variance is really been driving this laser search in cases around the world. here's what we know. so farm, it was 1st detected and in the back in april and since spreads more than $100.00 countries. and the us modeling shows the variance is now responsible for half of all new infections experts. so it spreads more easily because of mutations which help a lot of sales in our bodies. because virus is constantly mutate, researchers are still investigating. if this strain actually makes people more sick
4:25 pm
. well, the w a show was the delta will likely become the dominant strain of course 19 very soon, and says that while cases are spreading critically and high vaccination countries, places with low vaccination rates fair even worse. well, don't talk to dp good sunny as a clinical epidemiologist and senior lecture at queen mary university of london. she says vaccines can still provide a level of protection against the delta variance. although there is a level of evasion. again, you know, protection again, getting that of miles isn't that it does tend to protect against severe disease. if you've taken 2 doses, 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 fosters particularly people older and more wonderful who tend to mount lord immune responses to begin with are likely to be protected for a period of time. i need to do this and also means that might have
4:26 pm
a lot impact on threats to people might, will, vaccinate. it might still be able to get infected and be able to spread the video. and so i think all the tells us that this is not a wireless that we can live with. i mean, we are seeing this virus evolve and the to a new how do you transform surveyed every few months then which then takes over across the world and leads to another search. the only way to prevent this sort of bias that application 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 yet, and it will be a long time, perhaps even one or 2 years before everyone is vaccinated. and in that period of time, if we allow transmission to continue at high levels, we will see many, many more new radians. and one could potentially escape vaccines more 40, which could have implications for the band to me across the globe. so i think countries who think carefully about not just you know,
4:27 pm
vaccination strategies but also how to keep track mission low with good. so valence . esther is isolate systems and you know good measures to deal with transmission like investment and ventilation into environments and masking, and good border controls until we all get this under control. israel fin aisle of a request by jailed palestinian acts of his creed, jaffar jaguar rather to attend to daughter's funeral spot outreach and the occupied west bank. the protest has gathered outside of our prison, near ramallah, demanding general beliefs. sees fences finishes in 2 months time detained. in 2019 for alleged membership of a band group, her daughter, 31 started a sudden heart attack on sunday vision. also this stand in front of the prison is to express a solidarity with collated euro, who's going through the tragic death of a daughter, and also to demand the immediate release of kalita. this is off putting pressure on
