we cannot the, for the next, the next even hours, different variety of injuries, we have my share. so all of them are bored. we have to not narrow down criteria. that mission is not taking only like like dressing bodies. and so we want to meet for the lifesaving surgeries are better to reach more than 90 percent. and in this case, you need to never just for the last a life saving procedures, we have in stock for 3 and a half months of all supplies of critical license if you try to, to get from from our, our sensory world. now of course, communication and transportation that is going to be an issue in the next days as well. in this moment there aren't any,

any benches are on the facility itself. our main goal. ready is known, so we treat everybody as samuel about questions. we don't we don't ask who is from each party and we called the no trolley, he will help us to survive in the, in the next period. or 6 months after seizing power in a qu, memos management as naming itself a caretaker, government leader min allies to become prime minister. earlier he promised to lift the state of emergency by late 2023 and hold multiparty elections. tony chang reports from bangkok as an aerobics instructor, dances on the vehicles block of parliament, me and mar capital may be due on february the 1st, but at the general's thought. it would be a bloodless qu, they couldn't have been more wrong. months of bitter resistance and of ballad, military crack down with nearly a 1000 killed 6 months later,

the military chapter is renaming itself a caretaker government. although it appears it will still hold important positions . and the leading general giving assurances, elections will be held soon. we must create conditions to hold a free and fair multiparty general election. we have to make the preparations, pledge to hold the multiparty general election without fail to reach, but is not clear under what conditions those elections would be held. since the qu, the military has outlaw the national lead to democracy, i'm certain so cheese party and rejected. landslide victory in november, new elections would take place under the military emergency laws, which will be in place for another 2 years. min online did say the military would follow the lead of an invoice sent by the association of southeast asian nations. but that invoice has yet to be appointed, and as yet has failed to take a firm line. as events have spiraled out of control, as yet has been divided on ma'am, or in the last 6 months with indonesia, malaysia,

and singapore wanting to take a hard line. but the generals here in bangkok appeared to be wanting to give the benefit of the doubt to the generals and men mark. what is of growing concern to the international community is the worsening covered 19 situation in the country. more than half of the world population lives in countries bordering the ama while inside those borders, the bars is spreading unchecked. to qu has resulted in a near total class. all the health care system and health care workers are being attacked and arrested. the virus spreading through the population very false indeed by some estimate. in the next 2 weeks hall of the population of men more could be infected with co bid on the streets of young gone protest. as far as mamma's flag, they say they don't want new elections. just one military to step down. tony chang

al jazeera, thank you. when is the executive director of the boma human rights network and he claims the military is trying to fool the international community. when the military power, the said that they are going to conduct the election very soon, but in one year, but not only 3 and the same way, they are dragging the time bit by bit. so the, the main, the key point here is they are not going to leave the power to the people, you know, the people who voted for the, into the 20 for the, you know, and the puppy is standing on their, on their commitment. and they're still, we are supporting to any government who is supported by all their minority and majority population. but the point is to see that the military is trying to fool

international community head or u n. g in, in september. so they're trying to show that they give a government and just to make sure showing the, get them in the but, but the actually the people as a reject it. and bear in mind that the the who is still under we is not a cheap yet would be a trying to do. so it is important point to highlight millions of people across the us could be forced out of their homes within days after a nationwide moratorium when evictions expired. president joe biden is facing criticism for failing to challenge the supreme court decision. preventing an extension. the phase was imposed last year to help slow the spread of covered 19 by eating crowding in homes. some states, however, have chosen to extend the eviction mediterranean beyond july 31st, including california and new york. let's take a closer look at the staggering numbers surround america's housing crisis. more

than 15000000 people are behind on their rent. collectively they owe more than $20000000000.00 to landlords and national lions to end homelessness. estimate. 17, out of every 10000 people in the u. s. can experience homelessness in any single night of the year. congress approved nearly $47000000000.00 in rent release funding at the start of the pandemic, but only $3000000000.00 or 6 percent of that has made it to those who need it. let's go live and might canada, who's talking to us from washington. d. c. might it sounds as though there are a whole range of questions here, but it still means that renters are facing a very uncertain future. well, the whole range of questions indeed, not least is why did congress and the white house wait so long before taking any kind of action that supreme court decision was taken a months ago when a bred to kevin, all one of the justices wrote an argument denying renters relief at that particular

point, but saying in that judgment that there could be no further extensions of the relief, which was introduced originally by the cdc. he said specifically that the only way it could be renewed if congress passes legislation. now that was a month ago, and it's only on thursday that the bided administration suddenly appeared to realize the deadline was looming. cold on congress to pass such legislation. congress is about to go on the autumn break. it's attempted to pass the resolution by unanimous consent that was blocked by a single republican congressmen. congress has now gone away for its autumn break. its august break. no sign of weather. it will return to attempt to pass this legislation. so very much a comedy of errors that has nuts of impact as we say on millions of americans might we were just talking about the fact that there are a couple of states at least to try who've extended them auditorium themselves.

california and new york. is that something? do you think that we're going to see across the country? once again? yes, that is a possibility. but those states to refer to california new york democrat controlled . now it's unlikely that republican states would emulate such state legislation. this is the other problem to, within congress, republicans in the senate, many of them are adamant that the rent eviction notice should not be extended. they were opposed to it. many of them from the very beginning. the other complicating factor is division within democrats. they are many democrats utterly in theory to by the fact that the bite and white house acted so late, that it did not challenge that supreme court decision. but it was only days before the end on the morrow tore him that it began to take any form of action, and that instead was kicking the can down to congress to take some action congress going that august break. so yes, there is

a possibility that some other states might join, but one must be very clear here that this is a case to case basis. and the only way that this is going to be solved permanently is by congressional legislation. and i'm just as well, one more fact, rob, and that is that way back, congress voted for some $46000000000.00. full rent relieve. now out of that, only 3500000000000000 has been passed on to the renters. so congress is at fault not only for not taking action, but not having acted on what has had already decided on before. mike, thanks very much indeed, mike, kind of bringing this up to date from washington, d. c. for the bar head. and the news are including why fears or what china is controversial security law, a sport in exodus from hong kong to years of debate, venice fans large cruise ships to protect the lagoon ecosystem. and the usaa is rising sod caps, oper,

golden performance in the world. reco coming up in sports with joe i about the russian experience in tokyo says she's been taken to the airport to be flown home against her will. after publicly complaining about a coaches, christina, to fit some minus kaya was due to compete in the lympics woman's 200 meters on monday. that she told the reuters news agency. the coaches ordered her to pack her bags on sunday. i'm asking the international olympic committee for help. there's pressure against me and they're trying to get me out of the country without my permission. so i'm asking the i o. c. to get involved in this. i mean richardson has the latest from tokyo, christina team and oscar was, was due to compete here in tokyo, on monday in the 200 meters. according to the reuters news agency,

she was taken to the airport from the athletes village against her wishes by team officials and said to them, quotes, i will not return to bella ruth. now she's been critical of her team coach. she's during her time here in tokyo saying that she's also been asked to compete in the 4 by 400 me to relay an event she's not prepared for or trained for. and that was because other athletes in belarus had not been put through the necessary anti doping tests prior to that, rosalind okay, with that full ineligible. so g to she described the incompetence of the officials in bella. ruth, she was being forced to compete in an event she didn't want to. i've also had a statement from the brother is olympic committee saying, as concluded by the doctor's given the emotional state of the valuation athlete, christina team and also the coaches, counsel of the team, has decided to end the athletes participation at the olympic games or l g. 0 has managed to speak to the police at an 8 port here in tokyo. now she's confirmed. she

is with them. the unclear exactly what it is she wants at the moment. they're waiting a translator, unaware if, as it's being reported, she's seeking asylum, but she's not on a plane at the moment. far as we understand, she still at an 8 airport in tokyo. also, i still waiting for an official statement from the international olympic committee . thousands are taking part in the pros. adult sonata rally in brazil, rio does, you know, it's in support to the far right president's proposal to replace the electronic voting system with paper balance both and auto says it's necessary to avoid voter fraud in next year's election. well, let's come over to cope a cup on a beach. that's where monica, you know, you have is lifeless in rio de janeiro. why it looks fairly quiet behind you at the moment. what's been going on today? yes, we're standing a little bit far away just because of the signal which there are there is

a crowd towards my left there. they have been here since the early morning. they are supporting both so not as the idea. 8 of changing the electronic vote for a paper ballot, he says that it's it will make it easier to check if there is fraud. the president also says but has offered. * no proof whatsoever that there was fraud in the 2018 election. the one that elected him president, he said, had there not been fraud, he would probably have been elected in the 1st turn and not in the 2nd run all. but there is no proof of that. so what the opposition is saying, and 11 political parties have asked for proof of fraud in the past. what they're saying is that he's trying to establish a narrative, much like donald trump did in the united states, that there will be fraud in next year's presidential election. and in case you lose

it and he'll have a right to not accept the results. so it's like he's working ahead of time to establish a narrative before the next year's presidential elections because both show that he today he would likely lose to former president reason, not sure rule or the silver. so that's pretty much the discussion about the paper ballots and the electronics vote. yeah, we've just been looking at some of the pictures of those crowds of people you were telling us about, does you as you were talking to us, monica for now. thank you very much. indeed, monica, your neck, you have incorporated on the beach. controversial changes to hong kong immigration law have come into effect. critic say it's going to give the government sweeping powers to stop people from coming in around 2000. so been leaving before it came into force and it's adrian brown reports from hong kong. that figure is growing hong kong international airport is a quiet place these days except here,

the check in area for flights for london. these people are not going away for business or pleasure though. they're leaving for good feeling, a mixture of anger, guilt, and a sense living forced out. this is our home. why do we need to leave? i mean, i have been living here for more than 30 years already and it's my home. so it's really set to leave the home and you see that everything is she's a finance worker and has no job to go to like others who sacrifice careers often for the sake of their children. we live here, so for many years we have our korean. we have family. yes. so this is for the, for the future of my children. i think we need to do it the sad scenes and now being played out daily. as more people join

a growing exodus from the territory where communist party rule is being tightened. in the past year, an estimated $36000.00 people have left for britain under a special visa scheme. many supported over part of the anti government protest movement, like dark su now in birmingham with his family. he says the change to the immigration law will encourage more people to go to i just don't feel i think the hong kong government speeds up the immigration plan for many home comments. for us. we did not plan to leave hong kong in beginning even after the protests in 2019, like many others, he says he's unlikely to return to hong kong as city that still regards itself as asia's finest, the government denies the law gives it unlimited powers to stop people entering or leading hong kong, insisting the amendment is aimed at screening illegal immigration at source, amid a backlog of a silent claims. and the people's right to free movement will not be effected.
