they suspect of shooting at them, searching for guns and other weapons. with the army on the street, these business owners say they feel safe to return to see what they've lost. they find their stores gutted by looting and fires. this time i believe i'm here in this country, but i believe it is up in other parts of the halting province. there's also been extensive looting. c doors at the small in deep cliff where it'll have been entirely ransacked. there's nothing left and soldiers that police have been deployed to places just like this to try and protect whatever little is left and also keep looters away. but preventing the looting in many areas in johannesburg has proven difficult and appears to be impossible to stop. here. the grocery stores a butcher's shop bags and atm completely destroyed. security guards say they try to

keep looters away as they waited for the police. but it was too late, smart, shabby, worked at this food outlet. now i'm english because where, what am i supposed to do for now? where am i going to get paid? where's most likely going to come from? because this is my landlord. how am i going to support my family? because of this, tim enough that have been paging this place and the police were nowhere to be seen with why it's and the disruption of services in the hosting. and was it natal provinces? their concerns, people will run out of food. they are many unhappy with the destruction. i don't know where am i going to fight? i don't know, as you can see that this bed. and there is a situation. people are not waking, but this is not the solution. the protests that began after the jailing of

former president jacob zoom, i have no escalated to riots linked to increasing poverty and inequality. so of africa has been under varying stages of covert 19 locked down for more than a year. worsening unemployment, already at 52 percent, has field anger and resentment as a government that is struggling to cope for me. the miller, al jazeera johannesburg in now i corona virus lockdown in australia. the biggest city that was due to end on friday has been extended by at least 2 weeks. sydney is struggling to contain an outbreak of behind me, contagious delta variant. $97.00 new cases will record that in the past 24 hours under restrictions imposed last month, residents around the allowed to leave home for exercise, essential shopping work. and south korea has reported its highest daily infection

counts since the pandemic began. the government's been facing criticism over the speed of its vaccine wrote out restrictions in the capital, so are at the highest level so far. rob mcbride has the latest we've been under the most stringent measures since the start of this week. but this is where most of the new cases are occurring, but there is increasing concern about what's going on out in the provinces with reports of new daily infections. more than doubling recently. and the vaccination program, the government has been accused of being overly cautious. if not planning to get enough people vaccinated quickly enough, and it was always known that because of the supplies of vaccines coming in different batches, that july actually would be a lead time. and that's what we are seeing now. there is a shortage of vaccines around the government believes that from august onwards, the increased number of shipments are going to alleviate that has more vaccines become available. there was also

a concerned at the start of the program. there was some reticence about side effects that seems to have been replaced now by the more widespread concern about this 4th wave and about the ad delta very. and so we are seeing it increasing demands. and just as an example of that, this week, the vaccines are being rolled out to the latest target group. it's the 55 to 59 year old. as soon as the website we became active and people could apply to get the job of several 1000000 people who can apply around about 800000 of them. at one stage, we're all online trying to register for their 1st injection. now the world health organization says there's no evidence that people vaccinate against covered 19 will need a boost shot. it's criticized vaccine makers for developing boosters to sell to high income countries. while the vaccination rates in many port nations remain low. officials are wanting of chaos if people are now to get extra doses and mix different types of vaccines before clinical studies are completed. after months of

declining infections, cases are on the rise in the united states. the surge is being driven by the delta variant, and slowing vaccination rates. my kind of as more now from washington d. c. the infection rate has now doubled within the last 3 weeks today. there was some 23000 new cases reported as opposed to roughly 11000 on june the 23rd. there are a few reasons for this. firstly, delta barian has created a massive problem within the united states as it has in other countries. but what you've also had in between 2 is the july, the full holiday weekend, where there were large numbers of gatherings. so these are coming together to create this as flare up in infection rates within the united states. on the brighter side, perhaps deaths are running at about $250.00 a day. to put this into a context they were running around 3 and a half 1000

a day earlier in the winter. so clearly the vaccination has a massive impact in terms of restricting the number of this, even of those who contract the virus. but what is the problematic to is the discrepancy, the geographical discrepancy within the united states? nationally, some 55 percent of americans have had at least one shot to the vaccine. but then there are a number of states that are very low vexed, and rates such as mississippi, which is under 40 percent higher nevada. these are all states where the vaccine rates are incredibly low, and it is no coincidence that the rate of infection is much higher in those states than in others. but us vice president has met with a group of democrats from the state of texas. they're hoping to derail a republican back bill that would make it harder for people to vote. the group flew to washington to deny the state legislature the numbers needed to vote on the bill . comp, harris praise the move, comparing them to civil rights activists. while texas republicans,

according to their arrest, well, democrats say proposals to limit voting rights will disproportionately affect minorities who usually vote. democrat, president joe biden, call the fight of a voting rights. the test of our time. our white house correspondent kimberly helped get reports. us president joe biden traveled to philadelphia the birthplace of american democracy to highlight what he says is an existential threat. we're facing the most significant test of our democracy since the civil war, as not i personally since the civil war. the confederates back then never breached the capital, as insurrection listed on january. the 6th, ah biden says american democracy is under assault by republicans who refused to accept the 2020 presidential election results and even tried to overturn it. the big lie is just that

a big why would is 20 election it's not, i probably suggest the most examine in the fullest expression of the world, the people in the history of this nation. when that failed, he says his political opposition turned to republican state legislatures to pass restrictions, making it harder for voters to cast a ballot in the future. they want to make it so hard and convenient that they hope people don't vote at all. that's what this is about. at least 14 republican controlled states have enacted laws the restrict voting access. they say the measures combat widespread voter fraud. they claim was prevalent in 2020. texas is the latest thing to restrict voting. texas democrats fled to washington d. c. to stop a vote on a proposed law that they say would make it harder to cast

a ballot measures. biden is under pressure to stop. you make commitment said you're going to do this or do that. i think commit to that, followed through that's the most important part. following give us this person. people are right to say you can vote a certain you cannot do this, you cannot go out. it's not like it's improving. it's making it work. we should be adding through to make it better, make it easier, open, more full, more location, make it easier for l in not trying to tell your hand in blindfolding your boat. that's making it worse. that's like going back to i want to say flavors. biden's urging congress to pass to federal measures to do just that. he's also expanded the civil rights division of the department of justice to challenge state voting restrictions in the court. the president biden has passed, his vice president comma le harris was leaving his administration to efforts to protect valid access, calling it a top priority of his presidency. kimberly health care else's eros hill,

and other organizations across campus have been using for the last 5 years. i did, you know, i believe it's something that most person issues would like to achieve, but to be honest is on the government of canada. there are organizations, provinces, organizations within the province to actually make that move. the big question for mr trudeau, you know, it's nice that he goes to house and drops off the teddy bear. but that still doesn't solve well. how did those children end up there? who is responsible? what kind of action are you going to take from the terms from the eyes of justice, you know, is there going to be a special prosecutor assigned to this outside of candidate investigate the government? want to get it in this as well as the churches we want answers the justice relatives, these little children, brothers, sisters, mom, uncles and we have no idea how they ended up there. and have this happen in

minister spoke today to foreign journalists and he actually, i'd say government waging. ready a big news campaign and presented a slide showing our or thousands of going out. i created the social media campaign which, which, which was going on when, when the process broke out. and, and it seems, seems like the 2 things are connected. there is a lot of it's very difficult and on what is going on. a lot of them. ready are slowing around. i saw today information my end based media covers cuba saying that there were the common way is that liberated, liberated, but then i later saw the photograph come away. police station of the street seem very calm and the people come away says that things were normal there and there was a tweet from the state authorities take elements. i don't believe fake news in the

midst of all that. it's not just social media is known as internet is down. generally i've got internet here at the office here, but industry cell data is pretty much off the people. so it's hard to stay connected. hard to know what's going on. exactly. but overall then i was calling today and it's sort of day to day here in cuba, the death toll from a fire that read through a covert, 19 isolation ward and the rocky city of nasiriyah has risen to 90 to the prime minister's promising accountability. it's the 2nd time in 3 months. the fire has torn through a hospital in iraq, up the wide reports now from nasiriyah. angry. and in morning he like his betty the loved ones. the victims of the fire were mostly receiving treatment for coven maintain the burned out word. relatives arrived to help search for remains under the debris. they say the lack of safety equipment and enter vicki

wish and plan made the disaster worse. go 5, then. this is the result of come up, provide james, if you haven't been for these young volunteers, him, many more people would have died were holding the government and the health director of the probing responsible for this crime. forensic doctors say 5 members of one family are among the victims, with many of the dead too badly burned to be identifiable by relatives outside the morgue. most of us waited with others hoping for news about his mother. he says he couldn't identify her among other victims. i've been searching for her since yesterday. where shall i go now? when the fire broke out, we tried to break the door down to rescue her and the other patient. but it was too late. according to medical sources, the fire started when an oxygen tank used for treating cool with patient sick,

secluded lay mobile materials used in the construction of the walls of this center, including foam, help fuel the fire. the victims died from both burn and suffocation. this is the 2nd, the blaze at 19 unit in an iraqi hospital in 3 months. in april, a fire killed 82 cove with patients at the hospital in baghdad. the health sector in iraq has been hit by years of k is and mismanagement. it seems there is little hope of the situation improving anytime soon, and it's the patients who are paying the price that they had al jazeera in maria, city, southern iraq, lithuanian parliament is approved. the master tension of migrants in an effort to deter people crossing over from bella, luce, migraines entering the country, will now be detained for at least 6 months. lithuania,

and you have accused bella luce, of using them as a weapon to force the lifting of sanctions. more than 1700 of enter lithuania from better route this year. greece is on the frontline of europe's refugee crisis on the main land route into the continent. thousands of people make the crossing from turkey every year. and now greece's border with turkeys being used as a testing ground for the latest surveillance technology. john surplus has more from the bras river which separates the 2 countries the european border and coast guard or from tx, uses unmarked vehicles to patrol a heavily fence section of the greek turkish border. they are the human element among increasingly sophisticated european surveillance technologies being tested here, such as these tele mounted cameras, capable of penetrating kilometers into turkish territory, day and night. if our officer were, you know, the sky medicine, a camera monitoring is automated through a program that processes the images. recognize is what is approaching and sounds

the alarm. it mainly distinguishes people in vehicles, which is what concerns us and cross border crime. and the, the, the crime in question is illegal entry from turkey, including crossings by refugees from the banks of the everest river, which separates the 2 countries. 15 of these cameras will monitor the entire 200 kilometer length of the greek turkish border by the end of the year. they can detect people hiding behind trees and bushes, and there, supplemented by radar, unmanned aerial vehicles and graham sensors. surveillance was stepped up after much last year when turkey reneged on an agreement to hold back refugees from the european union. instead, it encouraged them to storm the greek border. but security concerns go back much further. in 2010, 36000 people entered greece illegally across the land border with turkey 26000 of them along the 12 kilometer stretch behind me. 2 years later, the greek armed forces erected a double chain link fence,

3 meters tall along these 12 kilometers. and after last year's events, that fence was reinforced with the 5 meter tall steel palisade you see behind me. and there may be more sinister methods being used to deter crossings. refugees captured this video on their mobile phones and september 2018. they say it shows greek border guards, depositing them on the turkish side of the river after they attempted to cross into greece. such pushback are illegal under the geneva convention authorities, as opposed to allow refugees to apply for asylum forensic architecture. an independent research team at goldsmith's university in london used 3 d modeling to identify the precise location of this. and other alleged pushback along the evidence and says, there is a set pattern once illegal entrance arrested in greece. people are then held there for hours upon end until it gets dark when they are loaded on to military

style trucks or vans, again, driven to the banks of the river and loaded onto smaller things until you members agree to share the burden of asylum. greece is obliged to absorb any refugees that come its way and is likely to continue its policy of deterrence. jumps are awful us al jazeera along the evidence river. italy has been crucial from the venice lagoon to protect its ecosystem and heritage. the move comes off, the unesco threatened to put italy on the blacklist or not banning the vessels from the world heritage site residents of energy and the government to take action. now after hearing more than 2 years of shocking testimony from the victims of state sanction killings, gambia truth reconciliation on reparations commission has finished its work, its planning to make strong recommendations to punish those responsible for atrocities committed under the former president john a. but as

a 0 is asked me to just report many victim say they can't move on. at the home of late basil battle feast is being prepared by a member of the family he left behind. 25 years ago. battle and 13 others were executed by former president jimmy followed gently planning a cool, his buddies like many other campaigns, was never recovered. since his death bottles, widow is finding it hard to find a closure. i know me, i know mean personally and not give anybody or if they come to me, i will tell them to us proceeded for forgiveness. go to basil the hardship by phase where i believe that to god, god will judge everything. but me what i cannot forget, you shall tell the commission about the that emotion is shared by others who are also last loved ones for 2 and have yes and can apple and hundreds of other surviving victims and their families, testified before the truth commission detailing the atrocities committed by the

regime. the testimonies, including those of members of a hits court, led to the discovery of mass graves and the grim task of zooming the remains as former teacher. but somebody lived through 14 months of humiliating detention and porter left him to call for life north explaining that i had was when both hands and legs were paid. but when they wouldn't care, you can move. you can be if that time that please the pin was continuous and they will come but all, all water on risky and, and continue it executing you on your baggage to look at fantasy. see the pin sticking work of the commission was led by for my advisor to the united nations secretary general to lemons,

to says the government would have to implement the commission recommendations to help the victims, to what the alternative you do nothing. 22 years of atrocities the slaughter of innocent civilians there which haunting thing that might lead them to the death of over 3040 people that massive a my torture that really happened in the area that we forget about all that. and then just some of us with it under the carpet and then no move on. no, i don't think the government would do that. i that many victim say they hope the government will have the courage to do that. but they wouldn't bet on it. the truth and reconciliation commission is expected to recommend the prosecution of the corporate practice of serious crimes and reformation for the government has already set aside $1000000.00 a composition for victims with a premise of another 1000000 to come young

b as inactive. it will be watching closely to see what the reaction of the government of president adam about it will be to the recommendation of the commission. what are the gambia preparing for presidential election in early december? the victims likes and categorical, may have to wait a bit longer for justice to be served on people. she vowed never to forgive. until then she will continue to bear the burden of our anger. and the pain of losing husband, she said, meant the world to our commented rece allergies either by jove, ah, for krycek headlines here on here with a death told from violence triggered by the rest of former of african president, jacob zoom has risen to 72 more than 1200 people have been arrested poverty unwrinkled unemployment of help fuel. the unrest south korea's report that its highest daily number of covey 19 infections into panda.
