you see the yellows and oranges across central parson down towards the south, up towards the north. it is a little cooler, of course, that even here it is mostly at around freezing. it does cool off a touch as we go on through the next couple of days. we'll see a temperatures around minus 6 celsius here for tuesday, still cool enough in northern scotland. still some flakes of snow coming through here, but many parts will stay very much on the mile side as we go on into the new year. says that where to whether across northern areas, just pushing up from the southwest more, very heavy down, pause. they're coming into a good part of portugal with the risk of further flooding, northwest spangles, to sing some very white weather wet weather to their across good parts of france as we go 13, monday, sinking ross, hello, countries into germany. but the so that is mild and key for the high of 9 degrees. ah ah,

ah, ah, lou ah, the watching, i'll just hear a reminder of our main stories now explosions have shaken ukrainian capital just off the country. welcome to new year, half an hour into 2023 caves. air raid sirens running out. cities mer, says air defense systems are working to protect people. north korea's leader is

promising an exponential increase in the production of nuclear weapons site media. se kim johnson has ordered new intercontinental ballistic missiles and nuclear capability. spain that has joined canada and australia and imposing code 19 checks on travelers from china infections. a soaring morocco has gone a step further, imposing a ban on all arrivals from china, from tuesday. with doctor william shatner is a professor of infectious diseases at vanderbilt university medical center. he says, beijing's withholding of crucial information has some countries on edge. the concern is that was so much multiplication of the virus, as you say, is a huge surge of infections in the chinese population. that gives the virus the opportunity to mutate. and it could possibly mutate into a new variant, a variant that could evade the protection of our current vaccines and therapeutics

. and because the chinese government is not providing the world's scientific community, the genetic information about the viruses currently circulating in china. the thought is, we had best tests every one to make sure that they're negative before they come to this part of the world. that will bias a little time in the event that there is a new variance of concern that is emerging in china. please understand this is not to just keep cases of cove it out. that's right. that's like asking somebody not to pour a glass of water into your swimming pool. we have plenty of coven here. the concern is about new variance. ready if the chinese government provided information on the genetics of these variants that are now circulating in china,

i think there would be less concern around the world. but once again, they are withholding scientific information. clarissa has adopted the euro as of sunday johnny. the 1st it comes nearly 10 years off to join the european union dose . that becomes part of the shingles, a meaning unrestricted, travel to other men. the nation's certainly decker has more from saga. it's not just a new year. it's also a whole new currency. and here crecia feelings are mixed. seems every, every company who took on the euro standard of leaving the wind down, i think, is going to be the same. and gratian nice and i'm not happy because i think everything will be more expensive. to be honest. i don't really care about that much, so i think it's probably a natural transition and that's fine with me when it comes to business imports, exports, and the tourism. the crecia is hugely reliant on many say it's a benefit. more than half of our external trades is done with the euro zone

countries, and approximately 2 thirds of the tourist overnight space done by the tourists who are coming from the euro area. so for us, it's a huge, it's important for our tourism, for our economy. jeweler, mario not guy agrees, i think it will be easier to work and many levels, and we don't lose money on conversions. the challenge in the short term, however, is that for the next 2 weeks, the local currency can still be used to buy, but the change must be in euro's. we will be a little exchange, but though i will push more kind of payment and just slowly transition i think i hope the card payment will work would if that breaks down and then we are the 1st day of 2023 has another 1st 2 as

the euro currently takes over your career is also entering the shank and zone. it's the 1st time a country adopt both on the same day. and that means that from now on, if you're entering or exiting from the change in zone, no more identity or border truck. most of creation is foreign visitors or european said a lot, definitely. and borders and border control or sunday free movement of people and everything. yeah, for now it's the new year old. that is one of the main subjects of conversation. and prices will continue to be displayed in both currencies as the people navigate their way through the transition. minnie is our stone, i'm sorry we are losing the corner, but nobody as the people, i feel sorry because i think a country which has its own currency, maintains its identity and historical values. not just an economic and political change, but for many here. the loss of a small sense of creation identity, even if it comes with benefits. stephanie decker al jazeera is,

i grabbed the libyan coast guard says it has stopped a ship carrying at least $700.00 refugees and migrants. is one of the largest interceptions in recent months. the vessel was reportedly blocked on friday, near a town west have been gauzy as it was making its way to europe. emigrants are said to come from several countries. authorities say those who entered libya illegally will be returned to their home states. as when a secondary protest in bolivia, santa cruz ridge are not the arrest of a right wing opposition leader. police were out in force after friday's violent computations with supporters of jo, governor louis fernando camacho. he was arrested on thursday and placed in pre trial detention. camacho denies accusations of leading a qu, doing protest in 2019 at force then present. eva morale is from power one quality election is a fiscal, unless he says support for camacho has grown beyond his stronghold in santa cruz. 6 months ago, nobody of the rest of the provinces would be backing

a camacho very much. they didn't have very much sympathy. they didn't have very much they didn't have a good opinion of camacho, today's different today you can see very many protest, not only santa cruz, but also in different provinces of bolivia because the bolivian people are feeling that it's not only come out to that same period but everybody else that everybody else could be kidnapped, everybody else could be. everybody from the position could be taking to prison. they have complete power. odyssey and the, the party in government for after 15 years in power, they have the parliament, they have the police, they have intelligence laid by cubans. and the military's all thinking crazy by humans, very humans are very keen, oper, oper, oper, active, political,
