ah, time sammy's a dan. this is al jazeera alive from dell hall. so coming up, france begins, testing passengers from china for cove is 19 and urge is other european union members to do the same as rainy forces kill to palestinians during home. demolitions in the occupied west bank and the international monetary fund warns a 3rd of the global economy will be in recession this year. ah, now emotional brazilians are paying their final respects to football. legend, pele in the city of santas where he 1st gained fame. a 24 hour wake is taking place at the stadium, which is home to the late football as long time club. among those in attended sofie for president john infant tina perry will be laid to rest on tuesday off for

a funeral procession. john hallman is live for us from there. so john, how are people coming out to mark the day when it looks pretty civilized inside of the santos stadium, you can probably see behind me just some people filing past. they're all going past to see the coffin of play and still to been pay the last respects to him. you can see the around the coffin. he's got what amounts to the presidential god. here in brazil, as a mark of how highly i suppose he's respected. within the country outside of the stadium, people have been cure. we've got to chat to them a bit earlier on. they've been caring since last night at to get in here. i am to come and see him. in brazil he is known as or hey, so at the king, the king of football is how he's regarded in his homeland, just chatting to people. they say that he's a genius, is the simple term that they put on it. this is a player who could strike the ball with the buffer. he was 5 for 8. so he was about one the half me is told,

but he could still leap like his still spring and seemed to hover in the air whenever it, whenever he had to her head the bow. and it's a play $13.00 well cuts. but i think the only begins to talk about what he meant to brazilians. even now, at the age of $82.00, are almost 40 years or more than 45 years after he finished his playing carrie. this is still some one that's regarded as a legend and someone that symbolizes best of the country. ready for brazilians. i will take us through a hampton survey. so this is going to be a bit of a funeral marathon. they call it velario here. so 24 hours where people can go through and see him. and then after that, what happens is there'll be a procession through the town of santo's in which a will go past the house of his mother, who is now about a 100 years old. and then after that, they'll be a private service for him in the cemetery in which his family have decided that

he'll be at the bottom level of the volts in the cemetery. they've done that so that people can come and pay their respects in the future. he actually originally wanted to be on the night level, which is the number that his dad also a footballer hides. so the families chinese that, that plan to sorry about the town that we're in santos. this is the town where pelley arrived as a 16 year old when he just started his football career and where he made his name. this is the team in which he played for our is heyday, really until his 1st retirement. i'm where he scored a lot of his $1200.00 plus goes and part of a team in which he helped attendance it. what they called the son passed the course, the fantastic holes, and they were named that because once pele had joined and of a play as they started to sweep or before them both nationally and internationally . so that's his sort of his, the legacy for him. here in this town you see the banners around us. internationally. of course, he's remembered as a star of the brazilian team. the team that many people saw in the 1970 woke up.

his last woke up, which they won in, which really cemented the legacy that he'd started a long time before as a member of that team. and as some one that was instrumental and key for that national team in winning. i will leave that thanks so much john holman. now the china where full suggest they could be arise in covey. 19 cases that's causing concern around the world and increasing number of countries and now imposing new restrictions on travelers from there. the chinese government relaxed its tough restrictions last month after ran protests. katrina, you report now from beijing. before the pandemic, australia was a popular destination for chinese travelers. and they are expected to return soon as trying to prepare to open its borders for the 1st time in almost 3 years. but thursday, though, face new restriction, the government has decided out of an abundance of caution,

to require travelers from china to submit evidence before boarding their flock of a negative kind of a test. canada, the united states, united kingdom, japan, india, and south korea will also screen passengers from china. in europe, france, italy, and spain will do the same and are encouraging other you nations to follow suit. morocco has taken the hardest line banning all chinese travelers from tuesday. many fear the outbreak here could lead to a new corona, virus straight, and spark. new waves of infections globally aging has hit back at the restrictions calling the unscientific standard. i know your many leading medical experts from multiple countries have said that there is no need to impose restrictions on boulder entry of travelers from china. the world health organization says it's understandable. governments want to protect their populations. it is asked for more real time data on depth, hospitalization and streams. they think it is a holding any information from the w have only

a dozen convert 19 gets reported in recent weeks, scientists is a drastic underwood floating infections. some estimate suggests that they could be as many as 9000 deaths occurring every day between you all the 0 beijing. now sound been jade reports from paris. why officials have started testing travelers arriving from china? the resurgence in france are the latest in european countries because spain and italy have already have similar restrictions for passengers coming from mainland china and hong kong where passengers will have to test a p c r test before the board the plane. and once they arrived in france, they will have to go through the random testing front says that this is a scientific measures is going to urge european union states to go for a more uniform policy later this week. but front says that these measures are important to control at ariba. this control on arrival would not prevent citizens from entering or territory. it's

a more specific control which will allow us to follow the different variance that are currently china. essentially the only cron variance your people who test positive will have to be in self isolation for 7 days. and this policy will remain in effect from the 1st to the 31st of january. for many people in france, this is dasia who do how dependent began 3 years ago when restrictions were imposed for people coming in from china and summer asking why are those restrictions on play for other countries? and in that places such as train stations and why a common sense measure, such as mosques are not being mandated for public places. the chinese embassy in france has responded to the latest restrictions, calling them unnecessary and discriminate 3, but for now, people coming in from hong kong and mainland china will have to go through this bcr test. and some of them will have to go to random checks as the arriving fronts. doctor dale fisher is a senior consultant in infectious diseases at the national university hospital of singapore. he says,

while it's happening in china was to be expected. what's going on in china is, has been seen in every other country already. that as soon as you ease the restrictions, then you're going to get massive spread. and that sort of lodge over crowded cities in china it's, it's really what, what is happening is not surprising. of course, the world like like more accurate numbers it's, it's quite incompatible to, to hear that morgan and crematorium are overwhelmed, but there's only been one extra essence. obviously, mike makes no sense, but actually i think the issue should be more about what other countries should be doing in response. it's not so much what, what china can do because that, that is going through what everyone else went through. and really all i'm hearing about is testing and other countries, which is really

a very narrow approach. we. we know that you can't just rely on tests. israeli forces have arrested 15 palestinians in different areas of the occupied west bank. the overnight raids were concentrated mainly in nablus. hebron and janine palestinian media say the detainees were taken to israeli jails on charges of resisting the occupation in janine to palestinians have been killed in another area of the occupied west bank by israeli forces. israeli police entered the town of golfer than to demolish the homes of to palestinians, accused of killing and israeli off the last september thought a hierarchy has more on those demolitions these demolitions come as a surprise. the demolition started on sunday nights and as a result of fighting the foot between the ready forces on the palestinians living in the area. 2 people have been killed to palestinians and 3 in did. one of them is

in critical condition now. the demolitions will to homes that belong to young palestinians in september last year. they tried to carry out the packets and is ready checkpoint and then the process of firing they got killed and also an israeli soldier was killed as well. now this is. 8 1 of the things that the israeli forces do it's a punitive kind of demolition that they do when people are involved in it talks or they seem anyone is working against the state of israel, the type of demolitions we see there tends to be 2 types of demolition you have the ones that are usually carried out by the military and the other ones tend to be. 1 of, of where they've accused promising in family of not having the right israeli permit for that. it could be a home, it could be a shop, it could be a business. and in those instances, it's very hard palestinians say, because often it's very difficult to get hold of those permit. now the masters international airport has reopened austin israeli attack on southern parts of the

grassy pushing tool, some parts of it. now my expect to see some flooding here by the end of the week, elsewhere, it is a usual case of sunshine and showers. fish out to just coming into the se of are in the i may be a shower or 2 into eastern path of sol. anchor repeat performance is we call 13 where to stay. the rest of india is dry and try to for pakistan. ah, a

ah lu. the me come back here watching out. let's have another recap of those headlines down the wake for brazilian football. legend pele is underway and vailable miro stadium in the city of san south. thousands of fans are expected to bid farewell to the man, the king of football. the reason surgeon code with 900 infections in china has prompted a growing global response around a dozen countries, including france and now imposed restrictions on travelers from the country. in jeanine to palestinians have been killed in the occupied west bank by israeli forces,

back to the town of governor dan to demolish the homes of 2 palestinians accused of killing an israeli offer. last september, the international monetary fund says a 3rd of the global economy will slide into recession this year. it's warning 2023 will be much tougher for hundreds of millions of people. the i'm f blames a simultaneous slow down of economic activity in the united states, europe and china, caused by the war in ukraine inflation high energy costs. and rising interest rates has an julio is an economist and financial market expert. he says, full cost suggest the situation will be worse than the global financial crisis of 2008 financial misbehavior. financial aid will always come back into the picture. the work now is back suffering from excessive leverage, excessive leverage from the 11th of the individual citizen and every country to the

corporate to the server and look at how many countries now are defaulting. we have quite a few that we have seen in africa with, we have seen it the relation of the egyptian and the action that is on the stay with the 4th of lebanon. and, and you can carry on and carry on. but you add to ukraine, russia war, which put a lot of strain on commodity prices, mainly about you can make catch up today, you know, corner wheat. so all of these are adding created inflation. what do government do when there is a time of inflation? there is interest rates, but what we have seen that interest rates have come up and it trends that also was not presented before. we see the interest rate go from 0 and dollar all the way to 4 and a half percent and i'm the ear. we've seen the euro come up from 0 interest

rates to 2 and a half percent. it could reach 3 percent very soon. i mean, yesterday i did the pro friend a very interesting analysis, a combination or a summary of all 2023 forecast from goldman sachs, morgan stanley, jeff morgan, and the light and the old show indications worse than 2008 crisis. we've seen trends, we haven't seen number of stock market decline, percentages of stock market, the erosion of the new ations, the pricing of all asset classes. if you look at the private equity space, you see that the repricing of us and the private equity is worse than 08 now. but how do we curve this? is it by raising interest? you to say? and g curb demand? that's correct. but what do you do to do the inflation, which is caused by shortage of the supply chain crisis? this does,

but it's not so bad to get to say what we need more than raising until we do have responsible governors. now creations are getting used to using the euro. bulk nation adopted the ear currency on sunday and also entered the world's biggest passport, free travel zone. 70 decker falls from zagreb. it is the 1st official working day here in korea, since major changes have taken effect. the euro is now the countries official currency, and it's also joined the shingles over here in a market in the center of the capital zigler, trying to figure out how these changes are affecting the people. there is still a lot of confusion, certainly also to help them. you have prices, for example, not just here in the market, but everywhere displayed in euro's and the old currency. the kona we've been talking to people here to see how these changes are affecting that the name, i don't have enough cleaners just for these days. i put everything in the bank, then i just taken out from the cash machine. we converted to euro's even before,

but for all the people, it's hard. i'm not sorry about the crew. now it's history. let's move on. so very mixed feelings among the people, but the future is this. it is the euro, which is the come, the present. and the future, there is still a lot of differentiation when it comes to actually the euro having to be given as change these days. but could, they're still very much being given from what we've been seeing. the bottom line is this for politically and economically. it's a major victory for co aisha. it's the people that are going to have to slowly adjust to this major change. how the german government has presented a new scheme to make it easier for skilled migrants to get jobs. there are several other e u countries want to limit immigration. dominic cane has more coding is a big part of ha shuttling gums job as a software engineer in berlin. he works for several major firms. he's been in germany for several years and is hoping to get permanent residency. but as an indian citizen,

he says there are difficulties. they would ask for one additional document and then they come back and then it gets delayed for 2 months or one and a half month more. so one of those about from that i didn't like personally in face language issues at the offices. but in terms of employment, yes, and that is something the current german government wants to eliminate. they say that country need 400000 new skilled migrants every year to make up for its aging population and bundle in the future. we will focus more on the qualifications and professional experience of immigrants, and left formalities will make it easier for immigrants to take medication and training of study in germany. and immigration has divided governments across europe for decades. and this new move in berlin has not gone unnoticed. elsewhere, of course we have governments very conservative governments like and poland who still use migration ass. the very combat like expression of

yeah, well, more in interior policy issue. way more than looking for the needs of the labor market. such thoughts are not how justin was. the austrian government recently voted down a plan to allow bulgaria and romania into the e used borderless shang, and so it's chancellor believes some european frontiers need physical barriers. austria is more than burden. we have over 100000 asylum applications or the 75000 across the external border cross member states, and we're only then apprehended in austria. we need stronger external border protection. must finally break. the tablet of fences are already up between hungry, which is inside the in zone. and serbia, which is not this was a recent photo color range between leaders of both countries at their border. the issue of migration will be disgusted, especially e. u summit in february,

but the political fault lines are clear. so as the new year dawns, the e you finds itself with the same old problems. part of the solution can be found here and can apply across the board. but other parts really can't dominate. came al, jazeera brussels. at least 4 people have been killed when 2 helicopters collided, mid air in the australian state of queensland. it happened that south port on the gold coast, a tourist destination, south of brisbin. at least 13 people, including 3 passengers were injured transport safety authorities are investigating and our people in nigeria are still struggling to find shelter and food wigs after devastating floods. thousands of homes have been destroyed along river banks. more than 6000 people were killed, amended race reports from over goro and southern nigeria. pamela

joseph returned to salvage what she can after flood waters wrecked out. a single room is all that's left for 6 bedroom bundle, and it's close to a precipice. when night by when night comes, i have to go somewhere else to sleep. my house is finished. the government has promised help, but so fight hasn't reached tens of thousands of people across nigeria. we feel like we have taken if edited for at the moment, but the sub nationals also have the responsibility to see that idea as citizens. i been in a supported some flood victim say nothing has been done. sicily that is not at the front cover. miss elliot, this used to be someone's bedroom before the flight. the deborah here is what's left of it and of 38 at the houses that was swept away,

the foundations of some of the buildings. i in the middle of this river. the flood between june and november, who are among the worst to hit nigeria in half a century. infrastructure like roads and bridges have been damaged or swept away. 2 months after the disaster. officious are still taking stock of the damage, but the government says it needs $2000000000.00 now to fix damage infrastructure. analysts say it's clear. authorities at all levels were ill prepared for the disaster. they just don't have an incentive to address this. because when you have a system where emergency phones are relieved without accountability, we have processes where there's no probable commit for those funds in europe will benefit from this as a whole. police get whom jeroen does floods. i worry that we may not be able to recover quick enough before the next one. with politicians focused on the general elections entombment. some flood victim say they're worried. their troubles are

only just beginning. how many degrees al jazeera or border our bridge connecting columbia and venezuela has fully reopened for the 1st time in nearly a decade, allowing people and cargo to move across, improved relations between the 2. latin american nations made it possible. alexander, i'm here to reports. it is the seeing that people living along this border of waited for 4 years. a line of passenger cars crossed from columbia into venezuela on sunday, symbolically and practically ending years of tense relations between the 2 countries. although now my grand about it is really a great joy for all colombians to be able to move between the 2 countries. again, many of us were used to moving freely and it made us very sad that for many years these 2 countries were separated. so we are very happy to rate is we opened the t v as bridge on january 1st with the festive by national ceremony. balloons flew in the air while government delegations met that the center of

a bridge that until recently had been blocked by containers placed there by the venezuelan army. oh, to day with this formal opening, we fulfill the political will of president nicholas maduro and gustavo petro. of total and transparent openness of the border with columbia. i left his gloomy and president gustavo federal head, announcing normalization of diplomatic relations with been sweller after winning elections in august. the 2 countries have gradually restored border crossings and commer since then. the shared 2200 kilometers border had been partially closed 7 years ago, and completely blocked in 2019 after the columbian president, he ran duke, questioned venezuelan president nicholas, my daughters reelection. since then, security along the border has deteriorated with the on groups controlling the legal transport of goods and the exodus of venezuelan migrants. now people on both sides, many by national, are hoping they will benefit socially and economically. well,

mister glen mondanca, the former brotherhood is back and this is what the venezuelan people want, that we build brotherhood again that our van, it's allan brothers come through with vehicles to day end to columbia because many people have their relatives on the other side of the border where, but i mean if he straight between the 2 countries was worth over $7000000000.00 us dollars back in 2008, but has collapsed to less than 300000000. since while returning to those levels will be difficult. the reopening as brought relief and hopes for better times ahead . alexander and b at the al jazeera. well good that. ah, and let's take you through the headlines again. emotional brazilians paying their final respects to football legend, pele in the city of santos, where he 1st gained fame. a 24 hour wake his taking place at the stadium,
