white house says he's experiencing very mild symptoms. italy's probably minister barney with rocky resigns after his main allies, boy called a comfort to these folks. also the e u satellite monitoring service says the fires of burnt as much london year of this year. as in all of 2021 and more russian attacks and deaths in the ukraine as moscow's foreign minister says, his false is aims have widened beyond the eastern region of dumbass in sports at table gold medals at the well athletics championships, nor at to retire takes the steeplechase high, so the cause exxon while china's as bang, been out for everyone in the women's discuss. ah,

ah, welcome to these. we begin with breaking news coming out of the united states, where the u. s. president joe biden has tested positive for the corona virus. his symptoms are said to be mild. it's the 1st time the 79 year old has tested positive for the illness. let's get the very latest on this from our white house correspondent, kimberly how kit who joins the live. now. kimberly a very simple statement from the white house, confirming the condition and the vaccinations that the president has had. that's all we've got so far. yeah, that's right. so just getting the news in the last few moments via statement giving a bit more clarification from the president's physician. we understand the president right now, experiencing very mild symptoms of coven 19. we understand it is a runny nose fatigue and a dry cough. now there happened some questions about the president and his whereabouts since he returned from his middle east tour. it was

a grueling multi day tour of not just israel, but also saudi arabia. of course, the president is the advanced in age and it was a very hectic schedule. and so many people when they travel we'll take some time on . that certainly was the case with the president. he was only making a few appearances and that did raise some questions with reporters. the white house assuring reporters of the president was okay. he did make an appearance where he talked about climate change in massachusetts about 24 hours ago, really causing no alarm, but then it was today when the president was set to travel again that we suddenly got the notice that the president would instead not be travelling but instead would be remaining at the white house due to experiencing these mild symptoms of coven 19 . now we should point out that the president is double vax,

as it's called. in other words, he's had 2 courses of the coven, 19 vaccine, as well as he has been boosted on at least 2 occasions, most recently as of march 30th. now you will recall that donald trump, the previous president, is also a president who has come down with coven 19. he did in fact, to experience more severe symptoms that ultimately caused him to have to leave the white house and go to walter hospital in bethesda, maryland. that is about 20 minutes drive north of here. that is not the case right now for joe biden. right now, the white house saying that this is a situation that can be handled with the presidents, physicians here at the white house at this time. and we understand there will be a further update from the white house at a white house press briefing that will be coming up in the coming hours. of course, with these sorts of situations occur, sent me with the u. s. president. kimberly,

what's the protocol in terms of informing the vice president til the speaker of the house they have to be informed, i presume, of course they would have to be informed that is correct. but right now, we have not been notified in any way that the president is unable to carry out his duties. so at this point, we are under the impression that joe biden is still very much in control of the white house and is still fully able to execute his duties as president in no way has his duty been transferred to. com. la harris, the vice president of the united states. so at this time, we are fully under the impression that this is nothing more than someone who might be experiencing a common cold. something that joe biden has experienced as president before and therefore is still fully in control and capable of carry out his duties as president of the united states. kimberly,

i should point out one more thing. we have that my apologies. we have heard from the 1st lady, doctor jill biden, i forgot to mention she has been travelling. she has tested negative for coven 19. she is resuming her full schedule, or rather she never interrupted her schedule. she is in the northern state of michigan. she is meeting with school children, we understand she has no intention of changing her schedule. in fact, we understand she is going to go to the state of georgia following her stop in michigan. and other words, she is feeling fine has tested negative and will continue to resume her duties as 1st lady id will come back to your call. secondly, with feather updates through the at the moment. can we help? in washington dc? natalie will be facing election sooner than planned after the prime minister step down by the drug. it will stay on the can take a leave until the alternate to tendering his resignation to italy's president said to him at ela, a few hours ago. elections were scheduled for next may,

but will likely be brought forward to september or october. the ship druggie won a confident sight in parliament on wednesday, but 3 political parties and his coalition government refused to participate in the latest. adam rainy, who joins me now from rome and adam a resignation accepted by the president. but where are we in the process of how italy deals wave its own situation as it heads towards now, what will be a general election? well, what we have. so here are parties gearing up for election mode, although they haven't been announced the president will be speaking to the nation in an hour or 2. and it's almost 100 percent clear. he's going to announce an early time table for elections, perhaps as early as late september. and these parties, what they're starting to do is go into full campaign mode. they're trying to say they have the platform to address at least problems. what they're doing also is ignoring criticism that this political crisis, if anything,

makes all of the problems italy faces tougher to solve. because basically the government now isn't campaign. most people are looking for what's coming next. and they're taking off the ball, some of the economic issues that they need to solve, mainly inflation and also addressing a drought that continues the battery of agricultural sector here in italy. so we're seeing people start to turn the page, not focus so much on getting these things done as much as getting back into power. well, it absolutely with italy and 70 different governments that have been fractured and dissipated over the past few decades over the period of both political instability and financial instability ahead. so which parties right now, if any, you take credit for what happened and who do you think many benefits? long term, everyone jostled, ray, the full position of the narrative. well the 3 parties who were in the coalition, this national unique government who decided not to vote from id that i gave

competence vote on wednesday. they're not really taking credit as much as saying they tried everything to figure out a way to go forward and they just couldn't. 2 of the parties refused to go on with the 5 star movement who kicked off this price is about a week ago when they didn't vote in the 1st confidence. so it's all this kind of finger pointing and no one really taking credit so much that's in the coalition or the coalition that's now collapsing. what you do have is the far right wing party, the brothers of italy, who for months is said it's time to vote now and go to election. they really pick that up. and the last week, and they are, if anything cheering for this we've been speaking to members of that party, they're thrilled because they're running highest in the polls right now about 25 percent. which would mean if, if people don't vote that way, they would win more seats than any other party and elections that are expected to happen in the fall. it also means that italy, for the 1st time in years what if not, since world war 2 would have such

a hard right wing party and that is creating some shudders around europe right now about what would you do if that were to take shape? of course, this is all kind of predictions that we won't know until the actual vote happens, but they're already see. people are concerned and aware that we may see a very hard right when party have the most seeking. part of that when the selection takes place, will continue to monitor events with you either monday, the 4th and re my. let's join the keller. gotcha. former and the secretary of state and the ministry of economic development joints, you know, from room. it's a good out. you could talk with us on the program, just your initial reaction to the resignation of prime minister druggie often seen in europe as a steady hand on the tiller at the time when italy needs it most. and that's a little bit to the percent. unfortunately, the reality as being a little bit disappointing and that's the reason why the 3 parties folder for the member, the driver government that came into our us as a uni, be

a nationally unity during the call. these crises where the interest, pretty much, almost everyone was aligned to 5, called the called the emergency side out likely. then there of course, like you have normal politics, the differences came to merge and to surface between the parties and over the last, the a monster. there's really been not a lot of. busy progress, so the reforms to the europe wants to be is it was only really a fact, but the reality was that the mapping was done and you know, way, some people think that there may be private believe on that he's already promised expectation. what does this you might say fall between the coalition partners? how does actually impact on the italian public in the, in that perception of italian politics right now, and that was a need for coalition and for you might say working together, this resignation shatters all of that. and the illusion around it. but not

a show was not just a few days ago, we had the big crowd, boston by no, to fax, the drivers against the current government. that means a lot of people ask me about the current government to the where to be honest, not open the general population, but they will deliver something. so in a way, i think i heard your comment before elections is always a good thing for democracy. you know, make the wing so the people of the to lead after 4 years of not being able to both of these. and so i think finally david johnson. and then we'll choose whatever the, like the weight is a crisis for the price. he's also not going to, he's now to give the work back to the people who can cast a vote. and joseph was like a weekly in a couple of months. we may have been new parliament and very soon the new government saw the crisis will back. all right,

it was will be forgotten. if you say the crisis will be forgotten, will people also have to keep in mind that drunky a pap seen as it economists rather than the politician. and that makes all the difference when you're going to the public, having those public discourses out in, in the open and in t v studios that perhaps he's not the, the charismatic figure that many believe italian politicians should be. but he is in fact, to an incredibly intelligent well respected economist. and that is true and even more so that disappointing, brenda was a bigger because you could look at the recovery plan. the longer the practically equally 190 has been or is being made in the project to correct main. none of the projects need easily and that kind of revolutionary pushes don't change and different all make them social structure of the kind of sleep. and this is very surprised cuz you're right, rockies, of course,

a very capable person. if i may say we went to school together at mit, so i trust he knows the numbers. so, but you know, most, all the disappointment, because of such a high standing and background knowledge it, he should have done a much beta investment plan and therefore they still have to be we've run the risk that the turns out to be bad, the better we will grow and so i do hope initially whatever the new government he's going to be, we will actually improve. but these are the maximum plan, the recovery plan. so this will actually be a good use and suggested we will also make sure that we also communicate these well with the mr. the financial community and european allies. because indeed that's awesome. we don't just need to do things, but also tell people that we are doing the right things and safety in the right way

. interesting times i had for the italian public mckayden gerace, joining us from rome. thanks so much for your time, sir. now the walls which have torn through parts of europe in recent weeks have been an alarming reminder of the impact of climate change. and the scale of the destruction is becoming clearer. the satellite monitoring service says the blazes have already scorched moorland, the ship them with burnt in the whole of 2021. that's 517000 hector. so far, it feared the record of 1000000 hacked has lost 102017 will be broken. by the end of the year. the places have been seen in france, portugal, greece, italy, sabina, and now albia. but more than a 3rd of the devastation has been in spain, firefighters in the country say that making progress in their battle to contain dozens of wildfires. temperatures dipped on wednesday, but most of the country is now back. hold alert for an ongoing heat wave as

a bas robbie reports to borrow in northern spain. when the inferno came, farmers in some order became firefighters. i wouldn't be your total, my god, he says, i'm all alone. in remote areas like this, there is no time to wait for a rescue. you have to save yourself. the wind whips up the flames in every direction. it is easy to find yourself surround. mm. i came out of nowhere. oh my go, go, go. go get around this guy days later, manuel hills toward soil putting out any remaining embers a more than you though i knew that we had help,

but from other farmers in the area we thought is the local government didn't help us. i told them that it isn't, it's very nice to come after the fire and say we will pay for all of this. but the time to help us is when the fire is here in the blaze burned crops, destroyed infrastructure and left behind. economic uncertainty, fires in this part of the country may be under control for now, but there is still smoke hanging in the air. you can see it obscuring the landscape . you can even smell it for the people living here. and for those fire rescue teams that are based here in tomorrow, these are ever present reminders of the wild, far season is far from over. i wish you're my for 3 generations, yolanda my o julians family has lived and worked on this land. you mom. she watched their barn go up in flames in minutes.

taking stock. she says they don't know how they'll be able to recover. and ya know, got the arizona on bundles. i've never seen anything like this before. the fire came very quickly with a lot of wind. it was just relentless. we could do absolutely nothing. it's still going. it still has a lot of power. it just, there used to be hundreds of animals here, most were moved, but yolanda family could not save the hay. the livestock, these even before the wildfires changed this landscape, life here was hard families struggling just to make a living are now scrambling to keep their future from turning to ash. say miss robbie. joe has been alive from somebody else in novilla providence and it seems behind you that the devastation is immense for as far as the icon season.

that's exactly right according to at least one european environmental organization . these are the worst wildfires this continent has seen in a century, spain easily the worst affected country and where we are now in serrato's, in avila province this morning, took the unfortunate mantle of being the worst affected part of the country so far . this wildfire season and you can see why when you come into this area we've driven through valleys and hills all completely charged by the wildfires that have been had that have been ongoing for days and that are still going forward. now the police are much more strict in this mountainous area. it is easy to get lost in these mountains and caught up in the ongoing fires. so there are road blocks everywhere and they won't let us near any of the fires. but you can hear water bombing helicopters go overhead, you can see them heading in directions of the fires and there is a fix smoke hanging over all of the country side. i'm going to show you exactly what a fire here leaves behind. all we see is hard, black land and burn the trees, but where the fire was stopped in its tracks. you can see

a star contrast from the black and burn trees to the green foliage, really indicating how harsh these fires were and how quickly they came up. luckily, they were stopped. that would no doubt have come as a relief to the people that live in these valleys. and just to give you a sense of how close a call this was for the people living here, the fire just stopped short of buildings down their homes and farms where people live and work very close to where these fires were in logistical terms for the firefighters this is exactly what a close call looks like because of your pan, just a little further up. a veritable stones throw away from the fires. is the town of subarus. just moments really the fires that were here would have been moments from engulfing this town. and no doubt the work of the fire rescue teams at that time was dramatic and desperate to try to save the town. the headquarters for the regions firefighters is based or insur barrows,

we've been down there and we've been told that they are still continuing to fight ongoing fires all across this area. the roads continue to be blocked and people there continue to be on high alert. now they have made success so far overall in the country. currently there are 15 active wildfires and wildfire warnings. 11 of them are highly dangerous. ready and out of control, but for the most part we have seen day by day, a reduction in the overall number of fires that are raging in spain. and that is because as they are able to put out some fires, they consolidate their firefighters and re mobilize them to active firefight active firefights. and they are able to thereby consolidate those forces and try to put out those fires quicker. no doubt trying to bring a quick end to this seasons. wildfires. they bas robbie for the latest. thank you know, flash flooding has it nigeria nor the gala states killing about 20 people more than

200 families flat as the water levels right now. the flooding has submerged thousands of farmland opens morehead. here on the august, the news are including sir lanka. has a new president is holy and dislike, protest as opposing his election. sumperville's, president of the keys are trying to buy votes as he seeks to boost his chances of reelection. uninstalled a repub slice in england in any final of the women's european championships. ah, i see people being killed and more than 20 others injured after russian shillings struck the ukrainian city of car keys, like the official say, a residential area with his talent. fisher jones, we now live from kiva. there have been allen sporadic attacks on various

parts of ukraine by russian forces. just bring us up to date with what's been going on in this particular area. while there is the relative calm here and keep even though we hear the alerts for attacks almost every single day, but the fighting continues in the south than in the east. no. if we talk about khaki, which of course is very close to the russian border, even just in the last though, we've heard reports of explosions in the tone to major attacks there throughout the course of the day at local officials say that civilian areas where het 3 people were killed at least $21.00 injured of the $21.00 injured at least one was a small child at what the officials there are seeing is that the russians are essentially not targeting military targets. they're just trying to terrorize in their was their local community. seeing that they're fine rockets, chaotically and brutally as for the ukrainians will they say they are making some success in the south of the country. they say they repel

a number of russian advances. they also say that the managed to target in a series of explosions, a number of russian ammunition dumps that that's important because at the ukrainians are focusing on the south, hoping that the russians will move their attention away from the don bass region. now you remember that the don bass became the main military object of when the russians failed to take heave at the start of the war. and it's always been the intention to try and take over the entire dawn bass. but it's gained extra attention in the last 24 hours. ca, sergei, lover of the russian foreign minister has said that at russia's territorial ambitions don't just end at the dawn bass. and in fact, they are also looking at taking over land in caps and area. and also zaplishny know that presidents lensky has questioned that the european union in the last 24 hours and his usual address late at night on our wednesday, he said that the latest round of sanctions from the european union simply wasn't

enough that they should be taking much more action, essentially, saying that the russians should realize that as a consequence for launching the war here and you and he wants the west to do a lot more to help his country elevation in ki, thanks very much for the update. expand on what allen just said, because of course rushes foreign minister says moscow's military goals in ukraine have widened beyond the eastern region of dumbass. aguilar, ross told state media that forces would target the regions of caution and preacher, the stumbling below the ship, which when there was a meeting in eastern bull, there was one geography and our willingness to accept. the ukrainian proposal was based on that geography for the geography at the end of march 2022. now the geography is different. this is not only the eleanor and the d, n r. this is also the curse in region and the sample region region and a number of of a territories. this process continues and continues consistently and persistently

stuff and wolves. a professor of international security at the university of birmingham joins me now from that. good, heavy with us, sir. mister wolf on the program. how seriously should we take such a lab ropes, comments? well, i think we need to take them very seriously, because this is not the 1st time that russia has made similar claims. and if we remember about 3 months ago and washer will build the so called stage 2 goes off. it's all special military operation as they call it, the war and the, the aggression, as we would say here, that actually included not only those 2 regions that again, emphasized not as part of russia explorations, but in fact the entire black sea coast of ukraine stretching all the way to more so i think because it's still very much on the russian agenda,

and we need to take these claims very serious and got worse. didn't try to, you might say, as we all thought, tried to take all of ukraine. you might say failed. but we're seeing the sort of long range in a variety of missile attacks in various areas spreading fair across the country. she think this transit strategy is linked to these comments. not necessarily because we have seen these or miss other checks almost throughout the entire period of the wall of the sometimes more intense, sometimes nessie jones. and i think this is done by russia to send a reminder that even the lowest of the fighting one, the ground might be occurring in boston. so with this is not all that washer can do. so washer is still quite capable. it's a long range, missiles to his target for in the ukraine,

potentially also threatening western supply line into the country. and so i think this is something that will continue to go on. think more attention needs to be paid now to what was actually going on in the sun for ukraine since the end of may has had some success with the count or offensive pushing russian troops further back towards korea, which no, i think increases the threat to russia. including in crimea, because ukraine has now fall, it phones rest on weapon systems like homeless, for example, that have a much longer range and can target russian military installations with much greater procession. how much earth of a threat does moscow do? you think feel there is with all of this western munitions coming into the country, they keep saying, don't they? they keep warning, keep. tell the e, you tell the u. s. don't keep sending these arguments in. also conflict will go on

forever. i mean, it's in their veiled threats, but are they actually more worried than letting, letting us all on i think they are, because it's, if you remember on sunday last week, the former watching president and they gave a speech to 2 bedrooms in the southern city of boca, and in russia, and what she said there was, any attack on crimea will be seen as an attack on russia proper. russia next crimea illegally in 2014. and he threatened once again a doomsday scenario on the get it. so it's not interesting about this is that this is not a red line. russia has drawn that is in the ukraine rather than depressed

. and i think that again could lead to an argument on the russian side for further escalation of the war. and we are now in a situation, i think that is quite conceivable. that excavation will happen on the ground in ukraine had off would be a very difficult rest of the summer and autumn steven wolf, professor at the university of banding. and thanks very much for your time. so was still a, had here all the, all just there and use our report from northeastern bangladesh for schools of reopened despite many areas still being on the water and with protests against the outgoing government. columbia swears in its most diverse congress and its sport, we speak to tune is in football fans as a prepared to support their team out the world cup here in qatar. ah,

so i will use the hot dry and dusty forecast. yeah, that does apply for the most part. look at least cloud in the south. again, this is still the edge effects of the monsoon flow which catches mom. so in slot arm ticket, very specific areas drizzly and clarity most of the time. maybe that again, we also see showers pick up in yemen, the south side of the mountains, and that'll be the case. otherwise it's dry and of course it's hot with temperatures approaching or even exceeding 50 degrees in western iran. just down from the mountains and a good part of the rocky plain. there's a bit of an on shore breeze from the mediterranean, which to some degree cools down the coast, but it's actually quite humid at the moment in, for example, north in egypt and lebanon. does the forecast change the next year? so well, you might think he waits, forecasts go up to 50. the winds optically strong by the time we get to saturday.

but they tried to strength a bit during sunday, across iraq to pick up the dust, a few showers, relieving the heat in some parts of iran. otherwise not much has changed, but just watch this. the rating karachi, which may, may well come again across into our mom, but that is next week. so we'll come to that in due course. the showers that were heavy in western canyon, ethiopia are dined down little bit. the focus is probably a bit further west in central african republic. ah frank assessments, it sounds like you don't expect anything to change the problem in lebanon. it's actually structural lebanon needs, and you contract in order for it to solve this problem. informed opinions on the go with the government has knowledge in depth analysis of the data global headlines. this is going to be very hard to explain to the public that instead of

pushing back, you know, it's actually a 2 man inside story on al jazeera. when the news breaks, people having to make all breaking decisions on whether to leave behind their homes and look when people need to be heard. and the story told that is even the home we hope to return one day with exclusive interviews and in depth reports, al jazeera has teens on the ground. president biden need to contain fuel prices with way to bring you more award winning documentaries, and light knees. ah ah,

welcome back to the algebra news are with me to hell, robin. a reminder of all top stories. the earth president joe biden has tested positive for the corona virus. the white house says that he has mild symptoms including fatigue and a dry cough. it's the 1st time the 79 year old has tested positive for the illness . the u satellite monitoring services, while fires have already scorched more lamb this year than was burned to the whole of 2021. that's 570000 hector so far. 3rd of the devastation is in spain and italy, prime minister maria raggy has resigned. the president has passed through you to stay on as a caretaker leader, he was a confidence though, but 3 parties of his coalition government refused to participate. well, let's go back to our breaking news at the u. s. president joe biden has tested positive for corona virus. we can now speak with dr. david friedman. he's a professor emeritus of infectious diseases at the university of alabama in birmingham. tell me whether sir live on al jazeera and it does say that the

president has a mild symptoms, a slight cough, and a fatigue. is that what we expect with the definition of mild symptoms? i'm that that's correct. a more severe symptoms would mean that he was having some difficulty breathing or that his oxygenation, which i'm sure they, they be monitoring, you know, had been, hadn't been affected. so, and that's pretty much what we're seeing up with. well vaccinated people are these days. of course a, in the press of the white house press statement, it does say that the president is taking pac salivate. and it's one of the many, a drugs that's available for those that won't be knock elated. what do we know about this? unpacks lavette is a highly effective, it's certainly the antiviral drug of choice. it's an oral drug. it's taken for

5 days and it's about 90 percent effective in reducing hospitalizations. and in those who take it and the fact that i'm sure he was started on a very, very early, you know, oftentimes people need, you know, 2 or 3 days to access it. i'm sure he started on it as soon as he tested positive. so likely even more effective in keeping him out of hospital. in addition, he's vaccinated a lot on that data. 90 percent was actually an unvaccinated. the also the fact that he's also vaccinated makes this whole thing a lot less worry some. so obviously we know that the u. s. president would be well looked after with the medic said around him. good. but can we talk about the issue of cove it within the elderly community and we can't ignore the fact that he's in his late seventies. and what they have to be aware of if they haven't been

vaccinated and they're watching this program and they need to be made aware of the seriousness of what case it is. it is all about yes, certainly, i mean, even, even nowadays with a large proportion or the majority of the us population over age 65 vaccinated the reality is that 50 percent of the deaths that are that are occurring are still in people over the age of 75, in which the president fits by category. so such people that are older need to be concerned if they develop any shortness of breath whatsoever. that's the main alarm i'm saying, the main reason to go to the hospital. some people i use home oxygen monitors to monitor their oxygenation. and if you can afford one of those finger monitors, you know, if your oxygen gets down to less than about 94 percent,

you should certainly go go to the hospital. i would like to emphasize the president biden is an extremely good physical condition. he's generally healthy. he goes bicycling regularly, so certainly decreases his risk. you know, the, the majority of the people that are still dying or are on back native. there are also people with what are called co morbidities heart lung disease, diabetes, things like that, which, you know, has a high rate in people that are 80, but doesn't really apply to the president. good to get your inside her and said it will be keeping very close on on the or the president over the next few days, dr. david friedman, thanks for joining us from buddy and pleasure to be here. runny lacresha singer has been sworn in as her lank as president. he was elected by m. p is to fight widespread public protests. many sir lincoln say he's partly responsible for the current economic crisis. from a single says, you're going to be tough on what he calls undemocratic demonstrators. he will

compete or complete, pardon me. the term of got the violin fox and he resigned after fling to think of paul last week. the political and economic instability is pushing a many to consider, leaving that bass and has more from outside the passport office in colombo. while honey, we come missing, i was inaugurated, as the executive president of the lank, i, these people were standing in a long queue. none of them have been paying any attention, nor was it a reason for them to celebrate their being in this cue for around 3 days. they have been sleeping here. they have been eating here. they have been waiting. most of the time they've been waiting to get a passport because they all want to leave the country. the situation has become so dire for families to feed their families to get fuel to get a job. that's why they have decided to leave. most of them want to go to the middle east and they're trying to get a passport. it's an enormous q,
