2:10 pm
a devastating effect on the economic recovery. okay, thank you so much for the update. this come all harder and know sure where ukraine has dismissed. russian claims that it killed hundreds of soldiers and a missile attack on chrome. a tossed schools and apartment blocks were damaged from the attack in the eastern 50. but ukraine's military says no one was killed. russia said the strike was in retaliation for ukraine's new year. attack, which killed dozens of its soldiers. that was an explosion. and then i know that a series of explosion in one made the window shake. really there's nothing else to tell you. justin normal days near me, i just went back to sleep. i thought about what to do next, but i just went back to bed. hotel strengths had reports from keith. absolutely no evidence at all as yet. and i flack dismissal by ukrainian authorities that such
2:11 pm
an attack happened. we know that criminals is often targeted is often described as a garrison town. it is. i've lots of military in it for 4 years. it's, as i say, traditionally a town associated with the military and, and of course you can imagine that those numbers of ukrainian troops have increased as we've gone into this war, but no evidence whatsoever. i think this is important to put it in the context, as you alluded to, the intro of this attack by the ukranian forces on the town of mac give on the, in the early hours of new year's day when they initially claim that hundreds of russian conscripts had been killed in that attack and we saw for the 1st time and admission by the russians that so they said $18000000.00 conscripts had been killed and a conscript center, vocational school that was being used to some sort of conscript sensor there. in the wake of that admission, there was
2:12 pm
a lot of anger on social media amongst ukrainian, sorry, russian army bloggers, a lot of anger amongst the russian public as well. because the russians and blame that attack or the high casualties on what they said was that the use of mobile phones by russian conscripts that was giving basically a signal to ukrainian forces that allow them to, to, to attack that center uncovered 19 is spreading rapidly in one of china's most populous provinces, health officials say 89 percent of people in the central region of them have been infected. that equates to 88 and a half 1000000 people. most cases a said to be mild and a symptomatic. the government says it's determined to reopen the country. well, international travel is ramping up after china dropped its border controls and quarantine rules on sunday. and thailand announced and into mandatory vaccinations . many chinese are already traveling abroad. these are some of the passengers who
2:13 pm
arrived in bangkok a short time ago. the number of chinese planning to travel to thailand to 6 speak to the top 500000 this month. tony ching is at bank hawk international airport. seen a lot of hotels that caters specifically to chinese terrorists, are ramping up their operations, trying to prepare for a much greater influx of numbers. but we've seen many tourist. there is particularly up in the north for example, ching by which is a favorite destination for chinese tourist preparing as well in that city in particular, which used to rely on chinese service for 40 percent of its income and which has suffered particular think they're very keen to see this happen at those numbers though, are not going to start initially. we see 2 flights today where we will see 2 flights by the end of today, only about 500 arrivals expected. we heard from the thai government that this month
2:14 pm
will be about a $150.00 flights expected from china. those will ramp up as the year goes on and we heard the health minister saying here at the airport. they want $10000000.00 or visitors from china by the end of the year. now that might be rather ambitious. before the pandemic, they were only 11500000 arriving at that time. so i think that they can get those numbers back within 12 months. is ambitious, but i think it's also a sign of the hopes and possibly the desperation of the thai government that desperately needs an influx of arrivals and cash to get that tourist industry back on its feet. while thailand may be opening and stools to chinese travelers, south korea and japan have been more cautious in this. kim has more from sole overseas visitors are back in this like conic soft district. install an area that has seen much of the last or fade out during the highly regulated pandemic years.
2:15 pm
now if online search results are any indication those in mainland china are also eager to return, but they will have to stay put for now, as the government has put a pause on the issue of short term visas on non essential problem at least until the end of this month, some encouraging statistics, only 3.9 percent of mainland china arrival on a short term basis. tested positive, covert on sunday. that's compared to double digit percentages that we saw this 3 days prior. despite travelers. how did you have a negative test on board today? we heard from a top adviser of south korea cobra respond passport shed some light. you know, it was, you know, it was i hope that the 4 percent figure registered yesterday will be kept and stay below 5 percent. if the number of patients in china is greatly reduced,
2:16 pm
directly speaking, it should stay at about one percent or less and it's a bit comprehensible that more than one out of a 100 people test positive within 48 hours within south korea, like many other economy, is looking to this is theresa sector, as well as visitors. numbers was currently struggles to reach even a 3rd of what was in here. this will likely be that it will need visitors to return from the world's most populous nation and neighboring but for now, this will say that travel controls will. the still ahead on al jazeera is royal. what is the removal of the palestinian flag from public spaces and humorous president joe biden? is it mexico and his 1st visit to the country since taking office? ah
