8:09 am
these are the 1st facilities in china and the government lifted 0 cove at 19 policy residence in bu han lit fireworks. to welcome the gear of the rabbits. the chinese city was the center of the corona virus pandemic. 3 years ago. katrina, hugh reports from beijing. thousands of people are braving the cold. as you can see behind me to go to the lama temple here. invading it's the most important buddhist temple in the capital. and it's the 1st time that this temple has been open for the new year, also known as the spring festival, here in china to 3 years. and many people here are very relieved that those days of lockdown and heavy virus restrictions are behind them so that they can celebrate normally and participate in long held blue to new year. traditional collectors. this one. now according to that traditional and it will come to the 1st day of the year with family and this to this temple, to pray for the upcoming year. ahead and according to tradition,
8:10 am
people are trying to get here. they tried to get here very early in the morning. there were hughes from 4 am in the morning because it said if you are the 1st to come to the temple and light an intense candle, you will have very good luck to the year ahead. now this last year, the previously new year was the year of the tiger. and according to the chinese zodiac, the qualities of year the tiger were restlessness and disruption. and that certainly ran true for many people here in china because of covert 0 policies. we had huge disruptions to income to the ability and to health, especially at the end of the year when those restrictions were suddenly lifted. and millions of people are estimated to have gotten sick with the virus and at least 60000 people died. and now we have this new year this year of the rabbit, which according to the zodiac, is supposed have the qualities of peace and posterity. so many people are coming here. crowds of people lining up to the temporal and they will be praying for a more positive year. ahead and certainly a better year. and then the previous one, people in hong kong, i'm making their way to mainland china to celebrate the new year with their
8:11 am
families. jessica washington reports the i'm here at west calhoun station in hong kong, part of the high speed rail network, connecting hong kong with mainland china. here you can see people from hong kong making the journey to cities like sions and joe, and also travelers from mainland china, arriving in hong kong. just a few weeks ago seems like this. all these passengers behind me wouldn't have been possible because the rail network was closed and only recently resumed operations once coban 19 protocols were reduced in mainland china. now there's some optimism from tourism operators here at hong kong will be one of the preferred destination for travelers from mainland china as they prepared to celebrate the luna and from it's very convenient. now. the interaction between hong kong and the mainland has been paused for 3 years since the pandemic, which cause a lot of nuisance to business travelers like me,
8:12 am
can see that many of the tickets for journey from hong kong to mainland china has already been sold out. but it's still not entirely businesses nor more here. there are still requirements for travelers who do need to complete p. c. r. test before making their journey either to hong kong or to the mainland. old travelers will need to fulfill that requirement. there are still quotas as well of around 60000 people. either way. so around a $120000.00 people can make the journey between hong kong and mainland china each day. in terms of the lunar new year festivities the traditional parade and fireworks for once again. be cancelled, but despite the differences, there's still some optimism from trade group here in hong kong. the federation of restaurant here in hong kong says that they anticipate a 60 percent boost to business compared to the same period last year. as many
8:13 am
people will be celebrating here in hong kong with their friends and families. protests have been held against israel's new rights when coalition government and its plans to reform the judicial system demonstrates is really to intellus even with jerusalem for the 3rd strike weekend. the angry about reforms which they say we can the powers of the supreme court. critics say the changes will undermine freedoms and give the government absolute power. iran con was at the protest and which jerusalem we have a just a quick look around. you'll see there's an inflatable red line that actually represent the red line for democracy. the protesters say that benjamin netanyahu cannot cross that line all throughout. hey, you see all of the slogans that we've been seeing in these protests. and these protests, including the benjamin netanyahu, is a criminal that the democracy must be defended as real concerns her over civil
8:14 am
rights. for example. now, 3 weeks ago this protests were spots by proposed changes by the justice minister to the supreme court. they were effectively don't to strip the supreme court of any house they had to overturn parliament decisions. it's got bigger than that. this is much school about people wondering, worrying about a threat to democracy and you have to say in jerusalem, there aren't really protests of this. so there was some in 2020 large in number, once again against the prime minister benjamin netanyahu. government, but they're getting bigger and that's because jerusalem is where religious city, very conservative city. so a lot that values a lot of people's values. they align with the goals, but because of this threat approaches to say to democracy, they are incredibly concerned. but it isn't gonna change anything. well that's the question i put to the protesters. what do you see here?
8:15 am
people from all, all kinds, all kinds of various policies is this thing, those change? which with which would we feel that with radical change really expecting would be the same one? 0, already experience in hungary and the likes and this is something that would very much like prevent i think that. busy more people that will go out, it will give more pressure to the government to stop this law like laws against a demo democracy. now it's not just head across israel in high for, for example. and in televi that have been mass protest. tel aviv is by far the largest, although there is a lot of people here in the 1st week we saw 50000 people, 80000 people in the 2nd week in the process. the organizes are suggesting them will be anywhere up to $120000.00 people out on the streets in television. that's
8:16 am
a significant number. now the idea full to protest organizes is to get as many people out on the streets as possible so that the politicians have to pay attention and they get worried about some of their support. leaving them that they may will be able to have a vote of no confidence in the government and try and force trigger new elections. the still ahead on al jazeera, ah, do you hear the people sing? how a citizens, quiet and chilly, is helping to take a classical music back to its roots. plus i'm gabriel's onto in new york 3 years on from the 1st covey case being discovered in the united states that are still hundreds of people dying from the disease. every single day that story coming up. ah,
8:17 am
there's been a lot of winter around this year in the middle east, the replacements that come back again despite the fat and satellite picks, you think, where is it? cuz it, yes, it might be the central training being rain to western turkey, but otherwise not sure either some showers building, i think some path, saudi arabia maybe just touching the far south of iraq, but the real cold air that was around in turkmenistan afghanistan came down through pakistan might be inducing, yet more cloud to build as it comes across the open waters of the gulf. so the forecast their house not as promising as you might like for monday to when say it's either like to be overcast or shower. possibly even sundry with temperatures dropping down to at 19 as a high by day and 12 to 13 overnight, which is not very warm this time of the year. now in africa, the seasonal rains are still going. sas, in fact, we've drawn about as fast as it going today. so the heavier stuff is
8:18 am
a line that stretches from angola, probably through zambia, towards southern tanzania. and this is the remains of tropical cycle. so heavy rain still falling in north and madagascar flood walling se will be of course, a risk of landslides in south africa. also during sunday, at least he looks pretty wet in the eastern cape. but though shares will fade away for monday. ah ah, ah, ah.
