or above average for this time of year. and for much fell africa. it's a similar story. lots of sunshine coming through with johannesburg. the cape town, though, it does turn cold as we go into sunday with the arrival of wet weather. that's your update. the the height of english football lies analytic market for the rich and powerful i was needing specialist work undercover. just yours investigative unit exposes the inner workings of key players in the murky underbelly of football finance. he's held something like one in addition has been said that you can make an elephant disappeared. i have many of the exciting brazen example i've seen. the men who sell football just with bank energy and say to every part of our universe,

she called for an urgent truce while condemning the taller bonds decision. the target cities about you and meeting follows the hala bonds capture of the lines, the 1st provincial capital taken in years to other cities, lasker guard, and shed. but han are at risk of falling israel's eye and don't defense system has intercepted 10. rockets, fired from southern lebanon. cyrus sounded in northern israel and the occupied golden heights off the several were fired. as vala has claimed responsibility in the health officials in england say the levels of corona virus found in people infected with the delta variance are similar regardless of whether they've been vaccinated or not . this they want may have implications for people's infectiousness, but added that more research is needed. data from hospital admissions with the

delta varying shows, 35 percent of patients were fully vaccinated and 55 percent were not inoculate. 2 of them all as cost live to nadine bama in london for so nadine, how concerned are a health authorities about these latest fun? well, has him. they are saying that they're not overly cautious. not overly concerned. rather at the moment, just some news that we've just got via the guardian newspaper online here in britain, that's saying that the prime minister bar is johnson who's only recently come out of isolation after being a close contact with the health secretary such a job. it is actually not isolating, despite a closer member of his staff who went on a trip with him to scotland testing positive. and i, so i think not downing street to saying that the prime minister was not in close contact with this member of stuff that's been contradicted by

a source to the newspaper. he said that they flew together in a small across up in scotland. now what we're hearing from public health england is that based on a small number of a small data base the, the number of people hospitalized with the delta variance, 55 percent, were unvaccinated no jobs. whereas 34.9 percent in a hospital with cove. it had had 2 doses of vaccine they're saying, this is what they expected to see is more of the population get vaccinated. a higher percentage of those ending up in the hospital will have been vaccinated, but perhaps with less severe symptoms. stressing that this isn't something to be overly worried about right now. they're also saying though, that quote, some initial findings indicate the levels of virus in those you become infected

with delta having already been vaccinated may be similar to levels found in on vaccinated people. that thing that they could stress could indicate that are implications, but how infectious people might be, of course, previously told the vaccines were very efficient in touch with you seeing how much you are the likelihood of policy on the disease. but that's stressing, this is early days in that analysis. there is some good news here in britain the, our number has dropped to between 0.8 and 1 point one. and at the same time, rates are pulling everywhere across the u. k except for northern islands. but vaccinations have been slowing. and there are concerns now in london here in the capital that in some bearers as many as one in 3 arrows a completely and vaccinated. raising the prospect of going backwards in what the government has described as

a race between the vaccination program and copied 19 the in bob a thanks for that dean bob, a live 1st there in london. well, let's talk more about these numbers more with alpha, tommy's a adjunct professor of immunology and factional g at the university of michigan, he joined just via skype. now for me and all of us in michigan, thanks very much for being with us. now. as you said, the disease, these are early numbers and it's a small pool of, of people. but how concerned should we be about this? i don't think that we should be concerned because so far are the vaccines have shown a high efficacy against disease and also a need to differentiate between infection and disease. eye infection. it means that you may carry the virus in your nose, or you may find some on nuclear lake acid in your nose from the, from the virus. so that's not really a big issue. a number one is that the most important thing is the number of

viruses live viruses or infections to gold in the nose. and that we cannot detect that by doing the irregular way of doing things like testing with p c r p c . r does not differentiate between a infectious virus or dead virus. and therefore, as a, as somebody really expose, you will find the r n a in their nose because the viruses can be killed by the antibody. but like i said, we'll, we'll continue to be there. and just for a few days, therefore when you do b, b, r, you cannot tell anything about this. let's press up. so that's a differentiation that we have to take into account when we talk about our b, c, r, and levels. i think the most important thing is the number of individuals that you

can transmit. the virus do, would vaccinated people even on the, they can maybe one to one and while the and vaccinated because they have a high via log. they can actually transfer to 10 or more people. so the super render is the n vaccine. it is people who are exposed rather than the vaccinated people who are really used levels of virus in their nose if they carry. but the, the headline to all of this, if you like, when, when people look at this story is it doesn't matter, doesn't really matter if you've been vaccinated or not, as far as the chances of you catching the delta vars. so are you concerned that the people will take the people who up to now have been reluctant to get vaccines refusing to get vaccines? what, what, what are you concerned about what they will take from that and say, well, this is confirmation. i don't really need it. exactly,

exactly. that's really the day, the risk by emphasizing something like this. and you can see every time you have a study like that, that shows some infection or some vcr in the vaccine. a did people we, there is always the issue when we are not sure it's not significant. we are not sure about this and all that, but the risk is really the message, the message for those and vaccinated or anti vac. and those water is that, why would i go through the whole thing if my chances to get the virus is exactly the same, like the, the, the vaccinate, the people. that's the, the wrong impression. and the concept is really wrong. we should emphasize that the vaccines prevent serious disease vaccines prevent even if you are exposed. you are getting very light symptoms compared to somebody who are high danger to for

a bit. and i'm for severe cases so that those are the messages that we have to emphasize going forward. that yeah, we are learning more and more about the virus. we're learning more and more the relationship between vaccination and infection. we know that the, that the antibodies we taught the subtle get for all protection the antibodies will go down its decline with time and its decline then you can protect against disease . but the breakthroughs is really the virus going to the nose. because then unity in that knowledge is limited. when you have high antibodies in b and the blood, you will have high antibodies in the nose when the antibody goes down and then the body goes down in the, in that do. and therefore, if you are exposed to the virus, the amount of antibodies doing that right away, the virus are limited. but the next couple of days or more do for

a routing and see by this the, the know so we can utilize the virus there and kill it. so basically we have to understand all these processes in order to be have a clear message. and the clear message should be you have to get vaccinated. that's the only way for preventing the disease for preventing this transmission and trying to get to the end of this. and then as soon as we put good to get your analysis, sally fat. tom, thanks very much. thank you. now, delta driven infections are causing more restrictions and frustration across asia. malaysia's seeing record numbers while seemingly endless on an off lock downs in australia, a causing uproar among people there florence louis report. hundreds of people marched on the streets of melbourne on thursday night as victorious jacob strayer entered, locked down. since the pandemic began, police arrested more than

a dozen people. more than 60 percent of australians are locked down on friday, including in 3 of its largest cities, melvin sidney and prison officials tried to stamp out an outbreak of the delta vary and i know the all of us victorians are fed up. we're tired. we've all had enough of these of these locked downs and the end of the restrictions that we're placing on our day to day life. but we know that it works. we've seen with a previous outbreak that we can get this to, we can get to grips of this very quickly if we continue to work together. in malaysia health official say the delta variance, which is much more transmissible, is now the dominant strain in the country. like wrapping up a speculation campaign and locking down the country for more than 2 months. malaysia has seen a record high in the number of new infections and death. this week. the government's failure to prevent the spread of the virus has led to colds for the prime minister,

we didn't. yes into resign. china to is trying to contain an outbreak of the delta variant. on wednesday it tightened overseas travel restrictions where citizens, local governments have tested entire cities and locked down millions of people this week. that's good. as long as all like holidays strictly implement prevention and control measures. this round of outbreaks can be basically controlled within $2.00 to $3.00 incubation period. many asian countries which had been successful in containing the corona virus last year, announcing an increase in new infection driven mainly by the delta variant. florence louis al jazeera qualify for of flooding has damaged homes and farms and washed away roads in north korea. ruin crops are threatening to make a hunger crisis even worse. a sanctions of the country off from aid and imports. rob mcbride is following the story force from sol in south korea. pictures released

by north korea, date run media, show widespread destruction from these floods impacting an area along the countries east coast towards the northern end of the korean peninsula. it said that some areas received up to $500.00 millimeters of rain during the 1st part of this week. and this really adds to north korea's ongoing miseries last year. a series of typhoons called havoc with the country's food production racking it's harvest and that's on top of ongoing problems such as years of international sanctions. and also of course, cutting itself off from the outside world. busy during this pandemic in recent months, state run media has shown a lot of work being done on the countries infrastructure trying to improve. for example, drainage ditches to try to make the country more resilient to extreme weather. but in june, the country leader came junglin did give a warning that the country was facing

a very tense food situation. these floods it seems, will make that situation worse. studying for exams is difficult at the best of times, but it's been especially tough this year for palestinian students in garza who faced the conflict power cuts and coded 19 outbreak. so when results arrived, there was much jubilation. usaid reports from gaza that balance teen students are celebrating what they called till she he, their high school exam results. pictures were quickly posted as social media, with the twin sisters may and were now among the 1st hello, i am the father high and i was the other as civic i can describe to you, my joy, sign god. when a results are released, everyone started screaming and chanting, we all quite of happiness is the city of pride for parents and sons. i want the had yet to for all was

a little from now despite the challenges and difficulties we've been through, we can god that we post them all the entire 30. he's on one hand and the results are on another the, the month before the exams in the middle of the corona, virus pandemic, and having to cope with constant power outages. everything's suddenly stopped for a student sing godsa. when israel launched air strikes against palestinian armed groups in the strip, more than 240 people were killed and almost 2000 wounded homes and schools were destroyed. but a month later in june, this year, students sat for their final exams. it pub bolona had some random hello with toma. we accepted this year with all its sweetness and bitterness. i was afraid i wasn't able to provide my friends with the peace and quiet they needed the thank god they were able to succeed despite it all. a joy is indescribable. better than

a wedding. there is no joy, like the joy of success. who that of she exams are so important for palestinians students. results can determine where they can study in the future, may and wanna share their experiences if passion for learning and education, and a determination to gain their diplomas and make a contribution to a better future for all godson. that's not as i'm donna mitchell was nope, along. we could bring out to creative generation from within. there are lots of examples in gaza to consider as role models. and we can definitely lift cause a strip the every year. hundreds of palestinians students are offered scholarships at universities in europe, the middle east and asia, but they faced many obstacles. chief among them is getting travel permits from israel to be able to leave. what many describe as the open air prison that is garza?

they often have to wait a long time for the approval, the delay jeopardizing their chance to study abroad. there may be not shame for these ghazi universities is elsewhere, but there is no doubting enthusiasm and will of the students improve their career prospects and their lives. you may see al jazeera gods, corruption scandals, political crises, and recession kept brazil from fulfilling many of the promises it made for the olympic games in rio de janeiro. but 5 years on one pledge has been realized, a forest dedicated to athletes, monica q reports 5 years ago. this was barren land, and many thought it would remain. so another broken promise from rio de janeiro summer olympic games like cleaning up the beautiful and still very polluted when i

bought a b. but the world is watching the olympics and tokyo, the athletes forest and rio de janeiro. it's finally blooming and even expanding this forest, it's an important legacy from the olympic games the rio because we have here right inside of the west, part of the city, 13000 trees inside of a future green corridor, the restarting right now to be for the next 10 years it took an uphill battle to fulfill the dream, which began at the 2016 olympic opening ceremony with athletes for waiting feebly of $207.00 brazilian native tree. each one representing a different country. they were taken to a private farm until the necessary preparations could be made to plant them in 2017 . but the economic crisis, corruption, scandal, and politics, god and the way the seeds of hope would have been buried in the past. had it not

been for the insistent group of forest engineers who had continued to nurture them despite the lack of public fun of the lodge feet. and that's because i eat it. took us 3 years from 2016 to 2019, to turn the athletes forest into a reality and find a home for the plant. each country that participated in the 2016 olympic games have been told to him in the forest indicating the species that represents and it's part in this global environmental project. or you and a half ago all plants here were this size. now many of them are more than 3 meters, high athletes. floors occupied 80000 square meters, a space equivalent to 8 football stadium. and another 20000 square meters are being cleared to plant more threaten need to be she you don't talk to him soon.

we won't have to do much to keep the forest from growing up. he says the trees already producing seeds which are being dispersed with the wind and moon, ripened in the ground. nature will take care of the rest to maintain this environmental footprint of the real olympics, monica, and i'll give, i'll just 0. we're diginero ah, type of support. now the latest on the tokyo olympics, his center. thank you very much. has been well can years face. he's gone, has defended, have 1500 me to title winning and limping record time. she made her attack on the back straight and never gave up the need that run us to find the hot sun that came said she had been looking for an unprecedented trouble and the

150510000 metre event. shawna miller, we will of bahamas has successfully defended her title and the women's 400 meters. but i need the paulina of the dominican republic one still the while american addison phoenix became the most decorated female track and field athletes with her bronze. that's her 10th elim pick a metal. and you've gone does a just to guy has one of the 5000 meters, the world record holder added to his silver from last week and the 10000 meters potent savvy comalla has won the final ever med ola. and the mens at 50 kilometer race walk, it will be placed in paris by an unspecified mix team event. as there is, there isn't an equivalent for a women the medalist have slammed the decision. that's

a terrible mistake by the i o. c and the world athletics, i think we showcase today that was an event that belongs to me. i will text it every athlete from, from the v down to the athlete, the path cross national and last and body. everything about the olympics got ability to endure. like i said, it's heartbreak. and what can i say, of course in a one side we add in the last middle isn't but of course it is great. but unfortunately i, i can say what i can say the history of the 50 k is finished. great britain have completely dominated the 1st ever women's and madison final, which was more the by a number of big crashes. but the british jewel kept clear winning 10 of the 12 sprints to claim the gold another than to have claimed gold and the women's hockey

. they b argentina, 31 in the final to do it great. which into the bronze earlier with a win over india. i see president thomas back says backwards. 88 countries have now one that metals in tokyo and he says the atmosphere and the limpid village has been more intense than ever before. we all and i personally as well, of course, you know where concerned because these olympic games could become olympic games without a soul. but fortunately, what we have seen here is a totally different because the athletes gave her these olympic games that great olympic solar away from the lympics python is alma and talks to sign argent time football style. you know, messy according to reports,

sports network, the athletic said that messy himself has already contacted that p. s g manager. maurice, you put it in you. the search foiled has been a free agent since the 1st of july with boss alona saying financial fair play rules meant a deal could not be completed. or despite the reports, lincoln p. s. g 4010. you didn't give away much when speaking to the media earlier . no go much was we focused and concentrated on the start of the season with the same time. the club is working hard and quietly to improve the team and achieve the goals we have set for this year. yes, we know what happened yesterday, but we are very focused on the beginning of the season and look at what we've been speaking to international football. janice gavin hamilton, he says it's hard to see messy sign for anyone else. other than p s g. the reverse clubs in the world that couldn't afford to saw you. i would say there are only

really 2 options for him to wealthy clubs in the well. manchester city and parasites you mar, matches the city today have just broken the british transfer record to saw in jack greenish from ashton villa, 400000000 pounds. so i don't think they have the resources to design missy because this is moving so quickly. i think paris sent him out probably the only option in terms of the club with the resources to citing the alternatives. all that he takes a little bit. so i'm out of the game. maybe science for major league soccer has been taught in the past of him moving and ending his career in america, or even returning home to rosario in, in austin teena. that's a long term possibility. but i think at the moment i restart humor of the most likely destination. and that's a spot for me. we'll have more for you at 18 gmc, but for now i have you back to hasn't. thanks very much santa, and that's it for me as an speaker for this news out. but i'll be back in
