her knight and begun sifting through the rubble this earth greg, it may not seem very large, but it was shallow. this, the shaking was very strong in the of the center area. hannah is very close. the only about 15 kilometers away from the abbey center. and so if you add that to the construction of the hands and structures in the area that will unfortunately cause large damage. the fact that it happened at night when people are sleeping, that even exaggerates the damage and the injuries that would happen in the area. the quake was felt as far as the provincial capital, quito aftershocks. continuing for hours, the area is mountainous and prone to landslides, that poses another threat that could hinder rescue and recovery operations. rescuers are also trying to reach more than a dozen coal miners trapped under ground. provincial government officials say as

country. but in reality, what he is doing is asserting iran's present asserting iran's control over this country because he is building on what happened just a few weeks ago. it's ally, has bala managed to import sanctioned iranian fuel through us sanctions. syria in the country now has been saying that the aim was to alleviate the fuel shortages in the country, but there is no doubt that this was a diplomatic and propaganda victory for hezbollah and the iranian camp in a lebanon. so basically this is that this is the message that he, he is trying to give us that the government was not involved in the importance of a fuel. in fact, the newly of the new prime minister even said, i'm sad that this happened and that lebanon's sovereignty was a, was violated. there were some protests against his visit for some people or even saying that this country is occupied by iran. it's interesting timing. there's

a new government to and as of late, the french, an envoy from france was here. the european union isn't talks with, with the lebanese government and eliminates government is in talks with the international monetary fund of, for a bailout package to resolve the deep economic crisis. so iran is, is kind of worried because at the end of the day, a deal with the i, m f at the state loses some sovereignty has, while a loses some control. so they're all vying for influence in this country. lebanon is the battle ground, and lebanon, really is a battle ground between the u. s. and, and iran is through their, their local allies in the country. the world health organization is backing a, rolled out to the 1st of a vaccine against malaria. it's a big step in the battle against viruses. one of the leading killers of children in africa is recommended. the job should be given to millions of children, rhetoric and b as this report. it's being described as a game changer for child health, a vaccine that could help save the lives of hundreds of thousands of children each year in sub saharan africa. monica has been with us for millennia. and the dream

of my letter boxing has been a long held but unattainable dream to day. the r t s. s. money vaccine. more than 30 years in the making changes the course of public health history. the vaccine smith klein vaccine has been given to infants and gone at kenya. i'm allowing since 2019 as part of a pilot program, it was found to be about 30 percent effective at preventing severe cases of the disease which is transmitted through mosquitoes. but that figure raised to around 70 percent, when the vaccine was combined with all the treatments, i think eradication is still a quite some time of it. but i think the combination of benefits chemo relaxes. and dyslexia that may be other vaccines in the future will bring us malaria burden of disease down substantially and africa. malaria causes fever, vomiting, and fatigue,

and kills more than full $100000.00 people each year. mostly children on to 5 as well as pregnant women. the r t s s vaccine, also known as most ski, ricks has been welcomed by researches as an historic breakthrough. but many on the continent worry about funding and whether a mass roll out will be possible in the wake of coping 19 and other competing priorities. we, roman i are being a disease boss specially i by and large and dizzy as far as sub saharan african a children. and given the digital geez, that our companies are facing, which will that be international? we're g r e is going to, i stand up and, and make dyslexia available to with children needed. the world health organization recommends giving the vaccine to babies in 3 phases, followed by a booster shot. but that may take time. the next step is for the global vaccine

alliance known as gabby, to look at whether the vaccine is a worthwhile investment. if it's approved, gabby will buy it for countries that request it process that it's expected to take at least a year, victoria gate, and be al jazeera. well, malcolm web has been off from marbury. it kills hundreds of thousands of people every year, almost all of them here in africa, world health organization estimates that killed need 400000 people in africa in 2019. now, some great gains have be made in the fight against malaria, but they stoled, in recent years, it's important to understand is very unequal, disease in urban areas and wealthy areas, people are much less likely to get it and much more likely to be able to treat it, if they do, it can be as simple as going to a pharmacy getting a test, buying the medication and taking it now in poor rural areas. it's a completely different story. the may be no pharmacy, no clinic, people can't afford to go there. and in some of the most millerio regions in the

continent, people are getting dozens of infected bites, bites from infected mosquitoes every week. and it's in these kinds of conditions where people are constantly fighting, malaria and other diseases, that is much more likely to be fatal, particularly to children in his, in these kinds of areas that the scientists hope that this vaccine could make a big difference. but of course, that depends on the extent of the rollouts and of course on how effective the vaccine actually is. security forces engine is you have rated the studios of an opposition tv channel and see some of its broadcasting equipment. just days ago, one of the channels main presenters was arrested for criticizing president, case studied live on a number of media outlets have come under pressure since the president to spend a parliament in july. the broke house regulated says the channels the to the tv have been operating illegally for several years. robbie louis is a chin is in jonas in the capital, and describes how the climate is changing for journalists. a station and i am who
