always brings the shower if they are increasing these you get hot in south sudan, add me back in wonder as well south of all list though, though it looks dry for sunday. by monday, increasing likelihood of rain seems there in the western northern cape. ah, investigative journalism, my role in this, i tried the in information battled global experts in discussion. the pandemic didn't create all of these problems. it showed us our true color voices from different corners. we don't need to sensation, like how we bail these stories. what jonathan beth is look at the heart of the story. programs that open your eyes to an alternative view of the wild for day on al jazeera ah.

the final round of parliamentary elections in france is underway. president manuel macros coalition hopes to hold up a challenge from a new leftist block ah, plugs in the wrong in the ordering of is there a life my headquarters here in doha. also coming up bangladesh is facing its was flooding in more than a century. dozens of been killed and millions are effected. expanding its covert 19 vaccination campaign, the u. s. gives the green light for infants of jungle 6 months to get the job. also, a popular canyon band hopes to revive the rumba in central and east africa. welcome to the program. boating is underway in france in the 2nd round of

parliamentary elections which could decide the future of president merrill mac walls reform agenda. the 1st round showed macro centrist coalition. come out ahead of a newly formed left wing alliance. the president will lead a majority to push through his plans to raise the retirement age and reduce taxes general is live for us outside a polling station in paris. so a great deal at stake, jonah. yes, indeed, it's an election, of course for a new parliament. it will also determine the make up of the new government based on those results. but what's really at stake here is to determine the limits of president microns power in his 2nd term, to enact reforms in the face of an economic crisis at home and an international crisis on the world stage as well. because if he loses his centrist coalition ensemble lose their majority in the parliament, it will be the 1st time since he was 1st elected in 2017. that emanuel mack on will

not have a free hand to do, essentially whatever he wants. and the results of last weekend's election suggest that is a distinct possibility in large part because of this very strong challenge. from the left is the green communist brand new coalition, under former socially sparkling that john melon shone now set to make waves. becoming frances largest opposition, and these are 2 groups, was radically different ideas about what to do in the face of frances problems. the centrists want to lower taxes. they want to reform the welfare system, jobs, benefits and so on. they want to raise the retirement age, essentially keep people working for longer. the left is on the other hand, want to lower the retirement age. they want to raise the minimum wage, and they want to raise taxes on the rich. indeed, the course of the voters obviously have some thoughts about this, but turn i was so low last weekend. what are they saying? turn out is a huge issue. it's the subject of much analysis. at the moment. here,

fewer than half of all registered voters turned out to vote last weekend and majority simply stayed at home. that's pretty bleak when you consider the results. the centrist, the largest party, one has a percentage of registered voters, just 11.9 percent of the vote. now the analysts point to the possibility of election fatigue off the president tools in april, but they also point to a distinctly lackluster sense among voters. we've spoken to him some here this morning, who see no new, big ideas at stake. and that'll be a real worry for macros and the centuries, because low turn off, particularly in the cities, would tend not to favor the encumbrance shown. of course, we'll check in with you throughout the day, jenny, hold for that. in the french capital, the colombians had to the poles also later on sunday in the most contested presidential election in recent history. the vote comes one year after a security crackdown on st protest fuel by deepening socio economic problems.

teresa reports not from book at all, all the promises made by the 2 presidential hopefuls who were at opposite ends of the political spectrum. a book i thought villa felix, your miss. it's just a few hours away from the elections. i talked to the columbia that is ready to change, that he's ready to make history says quote, that will be thrown in this commercial ag napoleon via v one. and this is the 1st time i left when candidate has made it this far in a presidential campaign. an economist, and also a former gorilla. he promises to fight in equality. we think the war on drugs and overhaul. the tax system was a 1000000 plus, whoops. logan would we propose in the medium term his food sovereignty and energy sovereignty based on clean energy? a process, the disconnect says from the economy that i call fossil coal in oil, and which connects us to the agriculture and in industrialization policy. make sure now what is with us, challenger is

a 77 year old business man known as the king of take talk to little foot. amanda shocked the country by making it to this sunday selection. he has based his campaign on attacking corrupt politicians, who he says have failed the columbian people at a man. this is the former may europe who got a manga and many compare his political style to donald trump's. v, as in where they warn you them on june 19th, we have a commitment with columbia. we have waited years to get the corrupt out of office shadow. on june 19th, we can begin to rewrite the new history of columbia, mark like this on the voting card. you look into my eyes, read my lips. i will not fail. you both candidates promise change, but the elections has people here on the edge. security forces are on high alert for potential political violence. some radical group has said that they won't have knowledge the results of sundays votes, and that's why thousands of soldiers and police officers have been deployed across

the country to guarantee the safety of the electoral process. protest last year against tax races and health care reform left does instead and hundreds injured. s o 3 located the protest showed we had serious and result social issues before the pandemic in the cities where the majority lived in the informal sector. when the economy was closed because of the panoramic many lost it all, it continues to be a time bomb. and that's why the challenge now is to start addressing all those issues. the winner will inherit a country with solid economic growth, but deep social troubles. troubles that had been ignored for too long. i'll defeat water. dozens of people are now known to have died in floods in both india and northeast and the pardon me and bangladesh. millions of people have been affected, it's the worst flooding in, but as for more than a century,

both countries of cold in the army to help with rescue efforts. but they're all phase of the flooding. with more heavy rain forecast will following the situation voice as time bit chandry correspondent is included in bangladesh. and let's just begin with the situation. obviously, varying in india and bungler dash in terms of the rescue and response effort tanveer. but what's happening, let's start with bangladesh. first well the good news is that have been, i have respite from the rain that's been in caisson rain for the last several days . torrential rain, which made things really bad. a lot of the water is coming from not this thing that goes through bank with us into the bay are bengal. many people are still marrow and the army and navy personnel was trying to rescue the people and the cry for help for fresh water and food that's desperate need. especially in the remote villages. power has been re, start to somewhat,

not all pops up does not taste and sell it. but some parts have got power since last night. we also know that many of the hospitals are going on dated with flood water, making things much more complicated, the road network, the railway, and the airport is totally cut off because of the flood water. so communication is again, a major challenge. people are in desperate need of relief. right now. the military is fuss, trying to rescue people, put them in dry shelters. at least 400 shelters been open. but it's just not enough that at least 4000000 people are affected by this flood. and just not face. also the northern upon bangladesh is also facing side of flood within next 2 days. the bomb up with the best thing is over flying with water and the forecast is at least 14 distinct will be flooded in northern bang are best. so situation is still quite bad and the flood forecast says that lives next 2 days. the possibility of current show rain again could make things worse. this is and bang the best. as

far as the name, the good, the state of our firm 3. and mega le, badly affected by the plot, particularly are some place that go ahead tease. com for and call your desk tick has been badly hid paper. at least 10000 people have been homeless since the flood started in from the chief minister visiting different places. navy, an army personnel has been deployed to rescue people, and there is forecasts for, for rain, and that drain is going to flood time and eventually also come to bangladesh. so clearly things are not out of danger yet. and the monsoon rain is one of the clear danger here which is quite difficult to predict, unlike before because of the weather pattern change. and the number of days of rain is quite intense, making things worse in these areas. so the chandry, the force and color in bangladesh, thank you. protest isn't in his,

it's not expected to rally again on sunday, against the president's plans for a constitutional referendum next month. the opposition says kind of side is trying to tighten is on power and the threatening to boycott. the vote is all the parliament and the field executive pounds last year. he's also like dozens of judges, prompting them to call a national strike, which is entering. it's that we don't have the power to do. the constitution was written in the dark. we don't recognize it. bring me something the all the chosen parties of the people i want support one written by the president. no, it's got to be met today, the tennessee and people don't have anything to wait. the simple employee can no longer manage and the president claims he's helping the people. what does he done for the people? he's destroyed the people, the us health officials of a pre k with 19 vaccines for children as young as 6 months. it means america's last remaining age group has been approved for the job, millions of days. it's have been order for distribution and will be available from

next week. dr. william chapman is a professor of infectious diseases at vanderbilt university medical center. he says that pediatricians have been eagerly waiting for this moment. you know, if we just look at these children age 6 months through 4 years of age, up to their 5th birthday, thinking back just in the united states, over 20000 of them, 20000 of them have been hospitalized. there have been over 200 deaths in children. this is an opportunity to prevent children, small children from dying. and so it's very exciting. the american academy of pdf of pediatrics as well as the c. c. and people such as myself, are enthusiastic about this and are going to be encouraging parents to bring their children into their doctors to be vaccinated. first of all, they're safe. that's very important. parents mostly want to know about that. and

then on the effectiveness side, they should have a level of effectiveness against severe disease keeping children out of the hospital comparable to what we have for older children, adolescents, and young adults. in other words, that we think that they'll be about 80 percent effective as about as good as we can get with our current generation of vaccines. there will be, according to our surveys about a quarter of parents who will bring their children in very promptly because they have been waiting for this. and then the vast majority will be a bit more cautious. and we urge them to go to their doctors, their family doctors, their pediatricians ask their questions to the point that they feel comfortable in doing that. and i hope that that happened soon. well, still had here on algebra. ah,
