10:01 am
a covey 19 scaring tokyo would be entire as straightly and mathematics him into isolation. doctors and me and my kids for gender of making a severe outbreak, even worse. teacher turn, president pedro casteel valves change, approve faces of fragmented congress and divide this nation. ah, soon as he is president, is accusing politicians of corruption and demanding the return of billions of dollars. he says was stolen from the public. puss chi side is dismissed. more officials days after freezing parliament and assuming executive powers gillian wolf reports the streets of tenicia as capital are mostly com. but on wednesday the president and again moved to tightened his control of the government. speaking in
10:02 am
a televised interview, president k say he'd accuse politicians of corruption, costing the country billions of dollars. the money stolen from the tin is young people must be restored. a decision will be made to take measures against the perpetrators who have taken these public funds. we will deal with these people in a proportionate manner. that accusation is disputed by another, the largest party in the government coalition, donaldson, united nations. these have been raised by rival policy many years ago and repeatedly, to talk to quite the strict inside the funding and, and not the his comply with and will never be any evidence of such florence on the tennessee as young democracy faces its worst crisis in a decade offered, the president ousted the government and froze parliament for 30 days. the president
10:03 am
says he has acted constitutionally, but opposition leaders accuse him of staging. a qu one analyst says phase moves are popular at least for now. the question is not the whether this is the core of today or recent ball as shown that 87 percent of donations, they agreed with decisions of by size and 76 percent. they totally agree with him. so as we can see here, the decisions are really very popular of are these feasible? well, let's wait and see further afield. foreign leaders have been calling for cabinet, changes to be swift. the takeover comes amid crisis. the grown of iris pandemic is ravaging the nation, and the economy is in steep decline with the international monetary fond recently promised to help to niecy a cope with its growing financial pressure. the president has been calling on traders to cut the cost of goods, but even that these local shop owners say won't do. i have been here
10:04 am
since the revolution life has become very difficult. the people can't make due. although we still meet with low process. this market is cheap and even in the market, people can't manage. and so residents wait to see whether the streets which witness the jasmine revolution a decade ago will remain silent. gillian wolf, al jazeera, go live now to tune as we have journalists, fam, kimble, and sam, the president saying billings have been stone and is giving details on how this funding was started, where it was still from who stole it. what we're hearing is that the president is claiming that close to $5000000000.00 have been looted from the country by a variety of means. he says he's got a list of several 100 people that are accused of,
10:05 am
of losing the countries wealth. those largely being politicians and members of parliament who, who his, whose immunity he removed on sunday night. and in when he took some extreme measures including the, the sacking of the prime minister, his m a c c. so he's his claim that the while the huge amounts of wealth have been taken from the country without giving the names or exactly how it was done, he said that the country is not a beggar country, and it deserves a better future. so it seems to be, it seems to be a move to reassure those who may have doubts about these extreme measures that he's taken over the last several days along with freezing parliament and dismissing the pm and numerous ministers that, that these, these powers of these actions being taken are for the good of the people and to needs ins for years have been complaining about corruption and,
10:06 am
and the flight of wealth from the country abroad as well as a deteriorating economic situation. so this seems to be a move to reassure those who had doubts about the options you've taken in the last few days or a to an addition to the allegations of corruption on behalf of some of those members of parliament that he's, he's frozen their work. he's also the boss of the national tv station wants the official reason for that. it's unclear what is the official reason for the the firing of the, the national tv station. but what i can say is that it's been a difficult time for journalists with some media workers and even media. the journalists syndicate. the one of the major powerful media unions in the country
10:07 am
worried that there may be a crackdown on the press. as you've likely reported before. there was a closure of the al jazeera office here in tunis by police without explanation or without a warrant. there was also new york times reporter stopped in the streets yesterday . here in tunisia, you know, eventually let go. and the though regarding the, the sacking of the, the national tv had the deputy head of the national journalist syndicate, had said that she was actually blocked from being interviewed on the national television station and actually blocked from entering the building. so there's can conflicting issues here of whether the head of the national tv station was, was playing kind of partisan politics and letting certain people in and not letting
10:08 am
others in. or if this is kind of getting, even with certain political opponents on the part of the news in president. all right, we'll leave it there. thanks so much. pam kimball, serene government forces, are continuing to strike the besieged district of data. the area and it's $40000.00 residents have been surrounded for more than a month, cut off from food medicine. russian bank government troops wanted opposition fighters in the area to surrender their weapons and allow minute re check points to be sent up. go straight out and get more in this with russell sort of the johns us from a stumble. so where does the bombing and siege leaving life in our school? well tommy, just there early in the morning the, the gym house and shaded a full scale assault in the city of bella, which is a southern eastern city, which is one of the few places that is not under the regime control. they're
10:09 am
installed in the south, syria. so now the regime forces i was trying to add them into the city center back by the that the shelling the do the, the motor showings. so the, for the region, legal to the regime is in charge of taken over the cities. there are the better the reports of the casualty. so far we do not know the exact figures regarding that by by the coming i was we are going to have more details. saw me in 2018. there has been a conciliation agreement led by russia between regina forces and the opposition there, based on that because the issue agreement, the opposition forces were supposed to handle, only did it happen, have the weapons, but in return they were supposed to remain in charge of keeping the security of the city, but recently the regime the, as the opposition to handle all of the weapons and plus also the are some of the
10:10 am
prominent members also to handle themselves through the regime to the region forces . and when that has been rejected by the people in the regime on june 24 started to take the city under the seas. and since among there's no humanitarian access to the to this to the city. so the food tuition is important to a little bit, focus on that because it is directly under the control of my, her son who is the brother of the syrian president, the shuttle asset. and iran has an heavy influence on that on that division. so in that sense, we can see that seems to a reconciliation agreement was lad, and pay the 4th by the, by russia, by russia. so we can see that there is a growing difference between russia and iran as well. and the iranian lo y'all's, the iranian influence,
10:11 am
the regions and the groups on little more and more overstepping the, the, the russian interest there. and so the negotiations are still going on. we do not know whether russia is going to sue to ramp up the pressure over the regime to reach another kind of reconciliation. but for now, the, for the region is in a full scale position into the city center. all right, so we'll start from stumble in australia as entire elim picked track and field team went in twice elation after an american athlete tested positive for covey. 19 us pole, vault, sam kendrick been really down to the competition. which thoughts in fact today been training with the streaming pole vaulter. curtis marshall, all members of this training and team with tested and none have been infected. and
10:12 am
the richardson joins us now from tokyo. so where does this leave the entire track and field event? yeah, it just goes to show you the the high y racks that everyone is performing here at the tokyo games in the international olympic committee. media briefing of the start of the day 24 new cases of covered 19 have arisen in the last 24 hours and that's the highest number we've had since. the start of the games in terms of sam kendrick, the american poll to. he's not just an athlete, he tested positive, he was set to be one of the big stores, a truck, and failed to take time world champion, the one the bronze medal in re i wouldn't be contented for gold again and again would come down to the integrity of competition in other competitions and other sports, if you test positive, covet 19, then perhaps there's an event you can play next week or you've got time to recover . they can reschedule the olympic 15 test positive. that's it around. so that is
10:13 am
the concern. all the athletes have here in terms of the australian team because of a close contact of 3 of their plates with kendricks briefly for about 2 or 3 hours today. the entire team wanting to sell for installation. those 3 close contacts of subsequent test the negative. after taking pcr tests, it means that they'll be allowed to carry on training, but will so far slate in between the training sessions. but the rest of the team is now free to carry on as normal, or is normal, as can be in the circumstances. and japan, andy is now at its worst stage of coven so far what options are officials looking at for controlling this outbreak? okay, so we're looking at so in terms of numbers, there's $9000.00 plus car cases in japan every day, the moment, 3000 cases every day in the top 10 metropolitan area, those are all time highs. we just had
10:14 am
a message from the medical advice in japan here saying the needs to be a clear, stronger message from the government to the people about the risks of coven 19. and in particular, the delta variance will be lympics. and the limbic organizes, a trying very hard to do is disconnect themselves from the rising figures in the wider community and in the country mcadams, the spokesman saying, as far as he was aware, not a single case within the wide, it's ok community is because of a close contact with anyone to do with the olympics is that convince the bubble? the athletes and the officials are written is that secure? i think from, from the people's perspective, hey, there is a great deal of frustration and confusion on the one hand, how care for example, is still under a state to emergency that being told to make sacrifices. and yet the government here is saying it's okay for the olympics to carry on this frustration of the slow roll out of the vaccine. and the feeling amongst the people is that the reason
10:15 am
private cases of been so low. and so now is because of their efforts and nothing to do with the government. so a lot of confusion, a lot of mixed messages depending on who you talk to. but as far as the olympics is concerned, nothing to do with them is causing the rise in cases inside and japan itself. all right, thanks so much, andy, there in tokyo, still ahead in the news on james bays and sammy normally seen as the safest province and i've got to stop. but in recent weeks it seems tens of thousands of people. conflict. ah ah, it was a turn of italy yesterday to get the damaging giants undersold, had been wandering round. europe circulating round bore less scotland. this is the
