. first they attacked the major news outlets. immense. can the regents, they came to the officers, they arrested the editor, some chiefs, they arrested foreigners. the handcuff alters and the employees of this organizations then, but this week it continued and they came to the office of human rights defenders to those who help families to breast political prisoner risk. and also they came to them international media organisation such as radio for europe, radio, liberty, european radio for banners. so why it happens? i think progression is trying to hide the truth and he is also trying to eliminate all sources of possible on the rest. i think there are 2 tricks here. the reason and their g people want to protest, there is no way back. point of no return has been passed. people want you will lecture. people want freedom, people want democracy. but on the other hand, there are no structure on the ground, they basically eliminated, or dorothy is not palm to the civil society. and but, but right now,

situation is quite difficult and anything, any step, any word by president lucas shanker or brilliant national community can become a trigger for the you wave of the protest. so it's very predictable. what will happen to war or what will happen next week? in the u. k is reported his highest number of new code cases in more than 6 months. there were close to $52000.00 new infections on friday. it comes days before the government relaxes restrictions on english, pubs, clubs, and restaurants. just a day earlier, prime minister boris johnson said, the worst of the pandemic would be behind the country. if people are careful. professor gabrielle scully, of the rules. society of medicine says reopening could lead to more mutations of the virus. it's not a very good prospect. i think what is most concerning. a lot of scientists and

public health people is the fact that the government actually wants this to happen in many ways. they want to see a lot of cases know during the summer they want those hospital admissions and those deaths to take place now rather than in the autumn in the winter because they think the ultimate winter are going to be bad enough. and getting some of the infection out of the way now is a good thing. but most public health people say that's absolutely crazy, that we shouldn't be encouraging the virus to spread. we shouldn't be letting that spread. and we certainly shouldn't be welcoming more cases, more hospitalization and more death are going to get more mutation taking place. but that has to happen. and if you get that happening in a country like the okay for about half of the population is vaccinated, you're actually giving an evolutionary advantage to variance that actually can

bypass the immunity generated by vaccination. so there is a real worry that we may get more mutations and we make a, make it more dangerous mutations covered cases arising. and all us states and the officials say the surge is largely in unvaccinated people. infections are up 70 percent in the last week. and deaths of jumps by 26 percent. the outbreaks of focus in areas with low vaccination rates. los angeles county is again making more squaring mandatory indoors from this weekend. you as president joe biden has a cue, social media platforms like facebook and twitter of spreading vaccine misinformation. i mean, really the only pandemic we have is among the killing people, health officials in the usa. the surge in cases is driven by the highly contagious delta variance is largely affecting younger people and can, and there's a concern,

it's increasing the risk for younger children not eligible for the vaccine puffy, coal hang reports. this is becoming a pandemic of the unvaccinated. with more than half of the u. s. population still unvaccinated against coded a new urgent warning from white house officials. yesterday cdc reported more than 33000 new cases of coven 19 r. 7 day average is about $26300.00 cases per day, and this represents an increase of nearly 70 percent. from the prior 7 day average . hospitals are once again filling up, and people are still dying from coven, more than 99 percent of those unvaccinated. it's particularly a problem in southern states. in fact, just for states accounted for more than 40 percent of all cases in the past week. with one in 5 of all cases occurring in florida alone, vaccines had become

a political issue in the us. that was clear when the governor of florida started drilling t shirts and beer cooties with the slogan, don't felt g, my florida. a slap, the country's top infectious disease doctor and analysts say conservative media is making it works. a very successfully convinced a large swath of republicans not to get the vaccine. if you look at polls, republicans are much more likely to say they have not been vaccinated. they will not be vaccinated, it's all making the situation more dangerous for children under the age of 12 who can't get vaccinated yet. and now there are report the food and drug administration won't look at allowing that until possibly december. so now more precautions. mask mandates going back into effect in los angeles, california. the budget ministration is supposed to decide over the next few days.

if they should lift restrictions on international travelers coming to the us. these new numbers will likely make that a much more difficult decision. capital have al jazeera washington, the us land boat is mexico and canada has been closed and non essential travel since march 2020, in southern california border restrictions of reeked havoc on the lives of millions of people who need to cross between the us and mexico everyday. as manuel and apollo report, some tiny scissors, california rooms and rooms are closed down businesses in southern california. this retail nightmare is the result of 16 months of travel restrictions along the us, mexico border graft ala, or these runs a hair salon, not far from the sunny sea, that port of entry into mexico. one of the busiest border crossings in the world of over at the moment that she tells us,

the lack of mexican tourist has forced many businesses in this area to shut their doors. i mean a lot better. the border case has affected me because i had employees that have them come back to work for more than a year. that's affected me. i think all of sandy see door has been effected because many businesses close and learn a little while the bided administration is considering lifting border restrictions on july 21st. many are concerned, the white house will instead push the deadline. further. for his part, mexico's president lopez over the lord has doubled up on an occupation efforts in the northern part of the country, hoping that more vaccination lead to a quicker lifting of restrictions since march of last year, cities and towns all along the u. s. southern border have lost an estimated $10000000000.00 a sum that continues to rise. the longer restrictions remain in place along the more than 3100 kilometers of southern border. jason, wells,

head of the sunny pseudo chamber of commerce, says the last 16 months with no foreign visitors has been dreadful. in an average year, we have $895000000.00 in sales and tennessee dro. we're calculating from may march of 2020 to march of 2021 though sales would be about 250000000. so you're looking at 74 percent loss in that in the revenue in revenue here. but again, like i said, it's $900.00 family who's no longer have a job. dakota. the economic fallout is not only being felt along the us southern border. the pressure on canada's government to reach an agreement with the us to return. travel to normal is mounting. while there is uncertainty over how and when the us, canada and mexico will lift border restrictions, it's clear that the economies of all 3 countries can not fully reopen until the borders do. manuel rap al jazeera sony, see that california

a u. s federal judge in texas is blocked new applications to a government program that protects immigrants brought to america as children from deportation. the judge ruled that the deferred action for childhood arrivals program was illegally created by former president brock balmer. but it doesn't affect the hundreds of thousands of people already wrote rights groups, the calling of president joe biden to respond quickly and protect young migrant. brent wilks is a senior vice president for institutional development and the hispanic federation. he says the strong grounds to appeal the decision. well, when he cited in the loss, it was really the process that the abandonment ration used to bring about the the, the executive order on taca. and so it's kind of a technicality. and one of the things that we've noted is that the, in fact, the judge also acknowledged that the, by the ministration is seeking to strengthen the deferred action program and to

remedy the concerns that were brought up in the lawsuit. so we really think that this ruling didn't have to happen in his premature the fact that the judge didn't give the administration a chance to remedy the issues that were cited in the case is a perfect grounds for appeal. so we, we, we certainly will make sure that the, that our allies are appealing this case in, and it probably will end up in the supreme court eventually. so that's definitely concern. but i think in the meantime we, we think this is a perfect example for the white house and for congress to go ahead and move forward and include a citizen, a pathway of citizenship from a legal perspective. the only impact of course is for folks who were about to apply or were flying that were new to the program. anybody that's renewing their docket, we currently have the doctor status, they're protected. and so that's a good thing. although i will say that there are about 640000 people in the states

that have doco. they are tired of kind of being a political football and having their lives up ended every time. there's new case, they've been part of the united states for so long their citizens and everything but, and paper. and we think that they should have the chance to get that current legal status. ah. this out there, these are the top stories. a 126 people have been confirmed dead a more than a 1000 are still missing the floods that are of ravaged western europe. raging waters and land slides have devastated entire communities, washing away houses and destroying businesses. africa forces of launch that offensive to retake a keyboard crossing with pockets on that was seized by the telephone. as the fighting intensifies, senior african officials are in castle in efforts to speed up peace talks. of the south africa, the president says the.
