venezuela's defense minister vladimir adrena said the armed forces were applied to the french country from irregular groups, but added that human rights needed to be respected. and that the events at the border with the investigative ah anger in austria over a plan nationwide locked down with supporters of the far right. freedom party out on the streets. protest 2 in the netherlands over coby 19 restrictions following a vada night in rotterdam. ah. alive hasn't think of this is as you say, that live from the holes are coming up. palestinian factions reject and condemn the you. case decision to designate all of the palestinian group hamis a terrorist organization. we join in

a cause for peer c authorities to provide independent, verifiable proof of her whereabouts and that she is safe. and the white house, as the international calls for answers about chinese tennis off punch. why hasn't been seen for weeks or there is anger, cross western europe over co with 19 restrictions. the number of new cases is surging, and governments are scrambling to respond. in austria, members of the far right freedom party and supporters, protesting tough measures that will come into effect next week. from monday, they'll be a nationwide lockdown. austrians won't be allowed to leave home except to go to work shop for essentially, an exercise. restrictions will initially last for 20 days, but the government will then decide whether to extend them for another 10 days vaccination against covered 1900 will be mandatory for everyone from february 1st,

next year. i'll screen journalist collette schmidt says far right groups that don't believe in corona virus are behind the rallies. this lockdown is really coming too late. we already have hospitals in some parts of the country who cannot take new patients. they are patients with heart disease is or cancer that cannot get proper treatment right now, because intensive care units are full with unvaccinated carpet patients. but these people who are protesting, they're not protesting because it is all coming too late. they are protesting against vaccinations. they can lock down, and some of them even think the virus is not real, even now in this dramatic situation or health care system. so if you take the 10 or even 15000 people and compare them to our 9000000 inhabitants, they're really a small group, but they're very radical. and 1st of them are very violent already a few months ago we saw even well no neil and actually groups meeting with people

who are just protesting or going back phoenicians and not really themselves very far. right. but then over the summer, the groups got smaller, but more radical there's really a lot of new and organizing projects, but also new groups who found each other because they're all against the corona, not against the virus. they don't believe in the virus. that's the problem. are there been also been protests in the netherlands? these are pictures from the largest city amsterdam 110000 coven. 19 cases were reported in the netherlands last week. country went into a partial lockdown last saturday. on friday night things turned violent in the city of rotterdam. at least 7 people were injured and dozens arrested. police declared emergency and shut down public transport. jeff han lake is an associate professor at the erasmus university in the hague. he says the protests were expected. the

protests were very much sure predictable, given the state of concern were rather skepticism that people have from the dutch government. since april we've been basically dealing with the caretaker government just not been able to form a coalition partners. i got a permanent government and then from people, even before the pendulum interrupted, very skeptical. the previous government was actually brought down because of the prices of confidence to the child benefits campbell, that is never been resolved. so the crisis we're facing is another to run a crisis. it's really a crisis of confidence in the legitimacy of government. people simply don't trust the government and, and that is, of course, a huge, huge challenge for the dutch government to, to overcome it. seeks to convince people to have vaccinations when it seeks to convince people of the need for a lockdown. the government very quickly rolled back the previous lockdown without

really step by step measures. so to reintroduce the lockdown measures right now, of course are going to be heavily resisted by people. so it's, it's not surprising but of course it's very, very worrisome, but this kind of products are going to happen elsewhere in the country. in australia, tens of thousands of people have been protesting against coded 19 vaccine orders and pandemic laws. rallies were held in each state capital, including sydney demonstrators in melbourne, calling for the scrapping of a bill they say will give the state the state premier too much power. are you a secretary of state anthony blinking is visiting a covey 19 vaccine manufacturing facility in singles capital dot com. the pastor institute received millions of dollars from foreign partners, including the u. s. to help african nations produce their own jobs. as of now, the continent import 909 percent of all its vaccines. nicholas hawk has more from the car. the vaccination rates,

it's really 4. i believe. 2 percent of the 2 percent of the population in africa. we're talking about a 1000000000 people have been vaccinated, compare this to what's happening in europe right now. where, where there's discussions both in north america and europe of a 3rd job. people here are not being, are not getting vaccinated, not because they don't want to, but simply because they don't have access to those covert vaccines. despite the fact that early on in jo biden's presidency he had. and she had promised that millions of doses of those vaccines would be delivered to africa that has not happened in as antony blanket explained that early on in his visit in a buddha, he seeking to back african solutions to african problems. and that's why this visit to the french best. so institute a significant will be the 1st time that allowed, based in west africa, will not only produce vaccines against covey, but also export it to neighboring countries. and while there are, depending on which countries you're, you're thinking of, there are

a rise of cases in south africa. earlier on in the year in tunisia, the, the coven cases brought the health system to, to the brink of collapse. well, here in senegal, it in certain west african countries, we've seen a slow down of, of the rate of infection. so scientists are still trying to figure out why that is, is it because there's a population here that's young and that maybe aren't being infected, but don't show the symptoms of covered or are there as a researchers from zimbabwe have suggested? are there other factors such as the fact that some of the people here are or are facing other infectious diseases or malaria that give them a higher immunity? so there's still a lot of research to be done on probate in that research has to be done here on the african continent. and that will benefit, not just africans, but the world globally of people in lebanon are struggling to pay for medicines after the government cuts subsidies on some drugs, the country's already in

a severe economic crisis. and zanna hotter reports from bay route, but it seems no sign of a way out. i don't know how much is a diabetic who needs continuous medical care, but this 75 year old can no longer afford it. lebanon began gradually lifting subsidies on drugs a few months ago, but now they include those for chronic diseases. and marcia and i am state employee and my pension is not enough to pay for the medicines i need how much we will die, because we can buy medicine. i don't know how much left this pharmacy without the insulator. he wanted medicine has become a privilege for the majority of the population made poor by economic crisis. that's all that stuff. price is increased tenfold and these drugs are essential and life saving the patient cannot stop taking them for the living standards are falling

fast and what is supposed to be a middle income country. many are now relying on local charities for health care services. a crash in the value of the local currency has made people salaries nearly worthless while check number of nanny, because we receive our salaries in lebanese lira. we can't afford going to hospitals. we have to come to the centers instead of the united nation says there has been a 33 percent increase in households, deprived of health care. and the share of those unable to buy medicines has increased to more than half lebanese officials are being criticized for failing to protect the poor. by making essential goods like medicine, more expensive by the thing subsidies. but the state is nearly bankrupt and lacks the foreign currency needed to import drugs. the health ministry says $130000000.00 was being spent on medical supplies

a month. and that's now down to 35000000. the international community has been helping with 8, but it's limited. we tar 3rd special aircraft the earlier this week and flew in 97 metric tons worth of basic supplies to help and to shore up the public system. but this will only last so long. we are seeing children dying needlessly from things like a fever. they didn't have the medications or they weren't affordable for them. they weren't available in a health facilities when the children needed at the most. some medicines are given for free at government health care centers. and officials are promising locally produced drugs will soon be made available at lower prices. but for now, the lifting of subsidies is hurting those in need. that, you know, they route the united states is calling on china to approve the tennis plan. pung, why is ok?

she hasn't been seen since accusing a high ranking politician of sexually assaulting her amount of child re reports. she's china's most successful tennis dollars, a former w world, number one, winning the french open and wimbledon. but she hasn't been seen in weeks hang has taken to social media to accuse a top chinese government official sexually assaulting her white house press. secretary gen saki says the us once a verifiable proof from china that the player is ok. we are deeply concerned by reports that peng shy, appears to be missing after accusing a former p r. c, senior official sexual assault with joining the calls for peer c authorities to provide independent, verifiable proof of her whereabouts and that she is safe. the united nations say want sciences and has insisted on a fully transparent investigation into pangs account of what happened to her. we would stress that, that is important to, to, to know that, that she,

you know where she is and, and, you know, her state, you know, know about her well being. and as i said, we think it would be important that there's an investigation into her allegations of sexual assault. tennis plays including serena williams. i know that chuck of h, the wells top, many players have also voice that support for the chinese athletes. i mean, i hope that for you know, for the sake of tennyson and, and chinese tennis and pang shy to, to find her very soon because the, this is, is terrible. i mean, this could happen to anybody. well, tennis association has questioned the authenticity of an e mail released by the government, which retracts the allegations. this case has not been reported by chinese media and any online discussion has been censored or removed. one saturday, the editor of the global times tweeted pang, make a public appearance soon. solar china has remained largely silent over the tennis

sto. asked to respond to the mounting questions. china's foreign ministry spokesman had this to say, we and i've not heard of the if you raised this is not a diplomatic question for government. her fellow players and have hands are waiting for answers. her marriage or 320. a still head on al jazeera, with the cost of living in pakistan up 35 percent in just 4 years opposition. a staging rally against the government's jenny protest into action. the young vote is determined to change one of south america's richest countries. ah hello there. we got an early taste of went to setting back came to worst ne parts of china over the next couple days and flooding rains coming into japan next week.

this mass of cloud is in the process of gathering as going to bring some wet weather and some winfrey weather into the northeast of china, pushing through the yellow sea caressing some pretty nasty weather. next mad, a cloud of rain that setting across southern parts of china and these 2 were going to merge together and pushed their way into japan. so really nasty days and very wet, some very windy weather setting in for japan through monday, very unpleasant. and it is likely to cause widespread disruption. there will be some flooding from this system here, which will gradually make its way through. we have had flooding recently into indonesia is will heavy showers there across a good part of se, asia lobby shows that indonesia, scattering the showers there into malaysia, stilson wet weather into southern parts of indo china, but not as wet as it has been recently, showers longest bells have right across india as well, and again, not as wet as it has been recently, but they are still there nevertheless. so further notting concerns coming through

here. we are going to see that where to weather continue for a time, margie drive, their forceful anchor, and also for pakistan. ah, with the stage is set and it's time for a different approach. one that is going to challenge the way you think we're ditching the sound bites and we're digging into the issues from international politics to the global pandemic. and everything in between. join me as i take on the la, dismantled misconceptions and debate the contradictions upfront with me, mark lamb on hill on out 0, lou,

the me again, you're watching as a reminder of our top stories this been protest this weekend in western europe over co, with 19 restrictions in austria, members, and supporters of the far right freedom party on now holding a rally. nationwide lockdown begins on monday pictures from the netherlands, which is also seen protests over the weekend. 110000 covered 19 cases reported last week. she went into a partial lockdown a week ago, and the u. s. is calling on china to prove the tennis play a punch. why is ok? you haven't been seen since accusing a high ranking politicians of sexually assaulting her. palestinian factions have condemned you case decision to designate all of ham as

a terrorist organization. leaders of the group have held an emergency meeting and garza, they say the move is a direct targeting and abuse of the palestinian people. think closer. look at the role of ham as the group took control of garza in 2007 after defeating is political rival factor in elections a year earlier. apart from its political and military wing, hamis also delivers social and welfare programs to the people of gaza. provides aide money, drinking water and housing. but the u. k. terra designation could now complicated and hinder those social welfare programs. that the how much is a hamis official? he believes the british government has been manipulated into taking this decision. i think this is something good and very strange and there was something shook there that the british government that they don't understand the situation very well. they don't understand that from us became part of the political system. habash participated and they have a democratic election. hamas became

a part of the of the of power hearing garza habash participated in dialogue, additional little dialogue participate in the government. so i think that the british government, the reality explored that there are various to be there. they both know anything about the situation here in the policy and territories. i fear also, i think the british government just received a fake and the false id for motion of from day chabarise and they tell him the whole story about i'm us legal. so that is right as enemy, and they will give it a prime minister, which is the pro israel. the support is that i had to put the glass of israel and therefore get the policy, not people. this me is that they forget all the crimes of israel forget the that the sitting with are against the international law, confiscation of law on against the international law. assassination. see john garza and i think default it all the crime sincere establishment of his way in 1948 till

now. forget all the crimes, all domestic of all the violation of israel and just for just focus on how much i challenge the british government if they have, when they prove that their hammers committed, any war crime or tourist action, hammers just walking against the occupation, hammers just is walking for liberation, of our homeland, for interest of our people for end of their completion. so i think this is a very shame and black us both in the face of the british government. there should be shame, really. there should be ship a members of an opposition alliance in pakistan or staging an anti government rally in the north western city or shower that demonstrating against the economic policies of prime minister, emerald cons government. the cost of leg and living has gone up by 35 percent since he took office in 2018. a correspondent seller been job aid was at the rally. o lation of pakistan's elliptical policies in the opposition have gathered in the

northern city shower. they are continuing their nation wide protests against inflation rise in places of basic commodities and the government. they say that it is in long hon government, which is responsible for what is happening in pakistan. they say it has failed the people to focus on according to these leaders, the government is following the agenda and the policies of the international monetary fund and international organization. rather than the interest of the pakistani people. although it is a coalition of a number of political parties, but they have not been able to gather more than a few 100 people here. and this is what the government has been saying that these people have tried their hands and power before they fail. the pakistani people as well, and it is the american government, which is going to bring about change. the government has launched a $700000000.00 program to provide relief to the people. but it says that because of various international freshers, it is hard to increase prices and as this back and forth between politicians continues that people continue to suffer back. it's not has not seen inflation like

this for the last 70 years. and the prices of basic commodities have been rising. people have been telling us that they're having to choose whether to send their children to school or put food on the table. a poland says hundreds of refugees and migrants have again tried to breach its border. polish guard, said they arrested $45.00 people for throwing rocks and tear gas canisters. there's been a humanitarian crisis in the region for weeks now. john, how reports from a hospital on the polish side of the border after 5 days last in forest along the polish border, syrian masula has done better than most. he's just made it to safety in a hospital inside the european union and bureau, allah, mystic i came from bay, were to mince can we ended up at the border? the bel russian army took our food and water and pushed us away and told us not to return. we been here 5 days with no food and water. and n g o worker takes down my source details. a lawyer will help him sign

a power of attorney, and he completes a note formerly requesting asylum. they were quickly, it'll soon become clear y m. c. buckner go gerberg. in the next door cubicle, in obvious distress, alarmed ahmed, hama occurred from northern iraq. i am a man, i am not an email. i roared in my do. and in an i c. u. bed, unidentified, and unconscious. a 3rd man suffering the effects of prolonged exposure to cold weather. these men have been on a terrible journey drawn to bella roost by the promise of safe passage to the e. u, unwitting victims. in a cynical standoff in which neither side much cares about their welfare, they may be signs of this crisis easing of conditions on the other side of the border improving of diplomacy working. but for the individuals in this hospital,

on the polish side of the border, at least one of them lucky to be alive while they're stuck in a nightmare. and it's still unfolding. here's why the presence of human rights activists matters. polish border guards arrive to take the men away. going to the okay i pray. ok. so just be nice to them. be nice. okay. okay, and don't vote. poland is not a welcoming place for asylum seekers. and there are frequent reports of refugees and migrants being pushed back across the border. that's much harder to do now that they have legal representation. we are following the start to make sure that the people in the refugee claim that the guards at the back seat are going to be transported to the guard station and not to be pushed into the forest. are

you worried that they might be pushed back into barrows? we are always worried about beauregard headquarters is the end of the line for the men. for now under international law, they should be looked after here. there's no guarantee they will simply be sent back to the whole al jazeera, near the polish border. or the canadian province of british columbia is struggling to recover after months worth of rain fell in in just 2 days earlier this week. the water levels have dropped in some areas, but others remain cut off. more storms are forecast. she have a fancy reports from western canada. thousands remain cut off and the mountainous northeast of british columbia authority said i hope highways will reopen by the end of the weekend. in the meantime, communities are improvising,

flooding did manage to achieve a long held go for environmental activists will be at temporarily the operations of the trans amount and pipeline that brings tar sands oil from alberta through the seumas prairie and onto the pacific coast well halted. the canadian government, though, is determined to push ahead with its expansion despite opposition. pure bath tub is overflowing, you don't do go for the lop, you turn off the tap 1st and we're not. we're turning the top on. they continue to expands these projects that are causing this problem in the 1st place that has to stop the developed world is projected to by the bruns of catastrophic climate change. but as rich nations like canada increasingly experience, extreme weather events, that mismatch routine professing to care about climate change, while increasing oil and gas production will become clearer. shabby, can't see al jazeera abbotsford, a former convict, as among those hoping to become the next president of honduras, jani rosenthal,
