brought the hell trade unions to this indefinite work stoppage nation is that 10 tokens strikes countless letter from everyone from the minister, the health secretary, the president have not brought any reactions that haven't had the year. all the authorities to discuss their grievances or their demand for they've said they've been pushed through the was to seek out their demands. and among these are salary sort of imbalances or and on mondays as they call them. 5 which basically puts a lot of these workers at different pay grades at a disadvantage. they say a recent resolution of a teacher strike that was demanding. similar things has, you know, created a wider gap. so they have been complaining and they say at the heart of it, it might be salary scales or anomalies. but he's also about the professionalism of

these different professions. there are something like 18 different trade unions under the health service umbrella that have joined this work stoppage from mondays and indefinite strike. if anything, from nurses to the border to technicians, to a public health inspectors are people who are in charge of the sort of corporate operation and some work in terms of anti cool with activities. there's also a dingo rick here, inter lanka, and doors, public health inspectors a perform a sort of a vital role. but all of this work has stopped even though emergency services are being continued. so that's what it's all about 7 demand. and they say they don't have a choice, the government says they will give in where possible. but there are certain things that just are not doable. so that, that it may know how the public being affected by this because it does soon widespread. and as you mentioned, it's gonna be indefinite had this

is where the really bites because the free service here in lanka, offered the more vulnerable those who don't have the resources or the where we thought to speak private health care go to private hospital. and, you know, get them to the into so the national hospital is a massive building. you see behind me, one of the main building, the main entrance here. i mean, these are places where people come from far and wide speaking various services there to the clinic. diabetic treatment wound clinic, you know, don't work and they don't have the money to seek private medical care, so they have to make the journey. yes. where they see a doctor is outpatient department. it's getting blood test getting x rays, routine operations. all of those things are on hold because these, these vital workers are on a strike and for people that puts them into a really bad situation. there are people who travel hours and knowledge to get to

places like this, or specialists, hospitals in the periphery, in the districts of the country based off because of that. but nothing much is happening. there are certain unions obviously that are still working, but it is a very reduced service and people are being inconvenient now. thank you very much. indeed, that's my know fernandez talking to us from colombo, whose president has appointed a new candidate for the 4th time since he took off as 6 months ago. the previous candidate lost to just 3 days after the resignation of the prime minister because of allegations of domestic abuse. alma justice minister, unable call us, has replaced him. president pedal castillo is 6 months in charge. had been marked by a series of setbacks, including a failed attempt to impeach him. versions of march in argentina's, capital, demanding debt relief. the governments in talks with the international monetary fund and how to pay back billions of dollars visible reports from one a service. ah,

they came to express their anger about the negotiations between argentina and the international monetary fund. thousands of people in front of the presidential palace demanded the government to prioritize the people. instead of the i, m f, wholesale. the media has been a lawmaker for years. you know, she's gone, but america, the government is renegotiating the agreement and they know they won't be able to pay it. and in 2 years we will have the same problem. we cannot pay back that amount of money without strangling the poorest. in 2018, the i m f granted the government of audi. she'll markley the biggest loan in its history over $50000000000.00. argentina says it meets to recover from the pandemic and wants to pay back once the economy starts growing again. i agreement with high inflation rates. i see the government is hoping to announce

a 2nd level agreement in the next month before sending it to congress. people here are extremely concerned about the impact that the agreement will have in their lives for amino when seen. he says, she's not concerned about the i m f, but about argentina's economy. inflation is expected to so pass 50 percent this year. the mileage thus young at the inflation is affecting a small commercial business, is because of the prices. today you have $1.00 price the next day, another dollar increases and it has an impact and inputs in transports. we are scared and it paralyzes us. we just want the uncertainty to and one economy say, an agreement with the i m f is crucial to prevent argentina from being isolated from international financial markets. not been. yeah, which are held cannot verify argentina has no option. it's either agree with diana, or default to young men, to default is to re live the christ of 2001. and nobody wants to be in the

situation again. and that's why an alternative is better than a default. we see an agreement is a positive step if it helps argentina increases central bank reserves and stabilize the economy. ah, but these people are not convinced they say the i m f measures have hurt them in the past. and they fear it could happen again that he said, well, i'll just see that one of site starbucks is being accused of retaliating against employees who charges unionize in the us. the coffee house giant fired organizers from a memphis business the same. they violated policies for using the store. after hours i'm giving tv interviews, workers more than 50 starbucks stores across 19 states, a file to join unions, traffic cravings, the director of cornell university school of industrial and labor relations. and she says, american laws are, i'm to quoted, the momentum for the workers is accelerating, and i think it's going to be quite difficult for starbucks to work on so many

friends at the same time. what starbucks has in its favor is that american labor law is extremely weak for employees in the private sector. so what there is one law, the national labor relations act that covers all private sector labor law throughout the entire united states. and that law is antiquated. it was passed in 1935, and there hasn't been any meaningful labor law reform in favor of workers since that time. so it allows, for example, for long delays before employees get an election, it allows the employer to engage in a lot of tactics into union tactics against employees. and then even if the employees, when the remedies under the statute are very weak. so for example,

the 6 employees, if they're terminated and that fills out the labor movement at that particular store for the employer faces, very, very low, low remedies which it can easily pay insights and garza are being restored. many of the locations had been abandoned for years because of repeated fighting for an archaeologist working alongside palestinians to train them to protect the historical science and all science reports from garza. because this trip is small in area, but it steaming with ancient, tells and artifacts that confirm its historical importance. but israel's repeated attacks as well as the lack of interest in archaeology here have had a negative impact on tourism in antiquities, in this trip. now after years of delay, foreign restoration missions are returning not just to rehabilitate these sites but also to train dozens of palestinian students in the field of restoration and are

ecology. the pickup hall and the report hog are 4 years. we have been developing a program for the preservation and restoration of the site of st. aaron in parallel with its restorations on we have also developed a series of training courses, the archaeological sites of garza and ink to its historical periods from the cannon night era. through the ottoman period and up to the beginning of the british colonization. the most famous of this error is the pasha palace, which dates back to the mon look period. during the british mandate, it was a police station. the monastery of saint hilary in which dates back to the byzantine time is inter collage, coll hill on which a mosaic floor whisp town during the settlement of the sands. another important archaeological site, which has been recently rehabilitated, is the best and teen church into ballier. it includes integrated architectural

elements and contains colorful mosier lores depicting the nature of life in garza. but according to french archeologist renette altair, there are many difficulties facing the restoration process. local text complex, the complex context of garza has full access to manufactured tools made in gaza. for example, to call and cut stone. faustine is working in there are key logical fields. hope there will be more research into other sites across garza, to show for the dupe of on the discovery of antiquities need support and experts in the field who have a good amount of knowledge and ability to discover, restore and deal with antiquities. to preserve them. the restoration of these are kill logical site space. the way further, happily teams should have dozens of similar sites across the gods. this strip those behind the project hope that this will bring attention to these ancient sights.

despite israel sees on the regent garza has a history that dates back to thousands of years and the evidence is still present today. unit c l to 0 gods out. winning an oscar is a dream for most actors, directors in production crew, and this is academy award nominations have been announced and streaming giant. netflix is leading the pack. gillian wolf looks at who might walk away with a golden statue the power of the dog. the moment you the fans have been waiting for tanya, actors, tracy, alice, ross and leslie jordan announcing the nominees for the 94th annual academy awards. and place out here. swear. netflix is western drama, the power of the dog leading the pack with 12 nomination. including best picture and best director, jane campion, becoming the 1st woman to be nominated twice to master and game recognition for all
