welcome to the news, we begin in syria, the nation devastated by civil war earthquakes and now a cholera outbreak. at least 3 people have died in the rebel controlled northwest health and sanitation facilities as well as water sources or extensively damaged by the quakes. living conditions in the camps were bad enough before they struck, but got even worse. millions of people in neighboring to kill or also living and make ship camps after their homes of flattened by the earthquakes. health workers say they need urgent support to help survive as deal with the trauma and mental illness. i'll do that as hush. marbra is at a camp before displaced families and guardian tap in southern turkey. but let's add to it live in syria and speak to our journalists that new cor most shoe is standing by. and of course, just bring us up to speed on what we know about this worrying outbreak of cholera in the lib regions. yes, well as we know,

the humanitarian situation in northwest syria still hasn't completely subsided since the data settings with the areas on february, the 6th and the matcher and teams. and the n g os are still working on mitigating be effects, the devastating destruction that was caused, and what added more pressure on these humanitarian teams is the continuous outbreak and spread of cholera disease in the areas of northwest, especially after the devastating destruction that was caused to the infrastructure of the entire areas of lesser, syria, and as we saw, hundreds of thousands of people are now staying in tempe, ration their centers, and even these shelters are not suitable for the people to stay and such as they lack medical points and proper sewage systems the cause of your damages to the solar systems in the area which affected the underwear which

restricted the access to clean water in the area. and as we know, the area was already suffering from lack of proper a sewer system that according to the response coordination groups. 63 percent of. ready refugee camps in the area like proper sewer systems and 43 lack of clean water, even before the ard waste in the area. and now, according to officials, these numbers are double to the due to the destructive results that was, that were caused by the waste and people are still living in our circumstances and b and b and b shelter centers. some people told us that some centers host up to 15 of families in the same shelter 10, which is a suitable environment to the spread of color, especially that most of the people are affected by the disaster are women and

children. ok, now let's just talk about the physical medical facilities because they were limited before the earthquake. they become an even more greater resort required for so many people after the earthquake. how much damage has there been to those medical facilities and what resources are medical professionals calling for at least limit the impact of the color outbreak that we're talking about? well, the health sector in generally no mystery, was already dealing with a lack of proper funds. even before the area and since the beginning of the disaster up to more than 50 health facilities were down there, either damage or it can be used and out of service due to a severe damage with these, these hospitals and medical ones were,

has been, have been responding since the since the beginning of the disaster as the death toll a stand out for 4500 is the disaster began at that. and with the a spread of call, the disease that adds more pressure on the hospitals as they have been responding with the available resources. previously, we talk to many health officials and doctors, as they said, they are lacking the proper equipment to respond to all these cases. as the spread of color disease and they are still dealing, dealing with the injuries that added a lot of pressure on the health workers as they need need international intervention from the, from b u n. and also that they told us that they didn't receive any a health any how to say like, like long term,

a solution for the health problems that were, were exacerbated. this is the disaster began and they are now demanding that you, any intervention cost me at the, at the severity of the ongoing disaster, especially after the continuous spread of cholera, disease, nor commotion for us in italy. thanks very much. we'll continue mom to what goes on there as well. bra is life. first thing i was going to up in southern turkey and hot water health conditions like where you all set me since the aftermath of those 2 weeks. of course, how badly they hit turkey. so hey, what a stand is a park. those turned into a makeshift count for those who are affected during the earthquake here in garza and him and wherever you go across the 11th provinces that were affected by the earthquakes, you see make shift cams. but on the same time, you see, it turns here,

and their families were decided not to be part of those games. and they chose to stay closer to their destroyed houses or to their farm land. and for all these people were talking about over 2000000 people who were affected by the earthquakes you need to deliver. but the water hygiene kids medical supplies on a daily basis to cater for their needs. and the government has asked the a fad, which is the emergency response agency to be able to deliver bottled food to all those people. because of a huge concerns, particularly in god, ahmad marashi, and in anti kia about the earth contaminated water. they have asked people not to use the tap water for the time being because they were concerned about potential for cholera are to break. but as you know, so hey, these are people who are most likely going to stay in those dance for some time before they are moved into or into a different temporary camps. and the government is saying is promising to deliver

new houses for them in a year from now. in the mean time health work as an engineers operating on the ground, they say that their biggest concern is the elderly and the children. and they say that we need to look after them on a daily basis because the potential for outbreak of diseases, particularly katara, remains very high, has marlboro forest, they and guardianship. thanks for the update house from ah no, the head of the un nuclear watchdog says iran should be transparent about its nuclear program. raphael grosse made the comment during a visit to toronto. his holding talks with the government. he says it comes days after the i. e. a inspectors found an iranian nuclear side, had enriched uranium to near weapons grade level. to ron says it's nuclear program

is for peaceful purposes or not for developing nuclear weapons. we have to have a vague, deep, serious, systematic deal with iran. and this is why i am here. it's been too long. there had been a number of issues throughout the year, and i'm be glad that at long last i have been able to return. i think it's going to be more than satisfactory and important and visit while the report from the international atomic energy agency, you found the purity of and rich rear uranium particles at the photo site was 83.7 percent. but that's close to the 90 percent needed to make a nuclear weapon. the report only mentioned particles and that suggest the stockpile of enriched uranium hasn't risen above 60 percent. let's cross over to our correspond dasa jibari who's in the uranium capital for us. obviously,

a very long conversation behind closed doors. what more did they have to say publicly while both sides saying publicly that they want to cooperate, that it's important for them to continue to have this dialogue, raphael grossi the director general of the nuclear watchdog. are you and you there watchdog. arrived in town on friday, it's been almost a year since he's been here. he's been holding meetings with various high ranking officials and he held a press conference with his radian counterpart, mom and mom had a slummy, who is the head of her aunt's atomic energy organization. as the director general saying that she's inter wrong to get assurances from irena and officials that their nuclear program is transparent. the iranians for their part have said that they are cooperating with the agency and that these reports of what the inspectors found at 4 doe are being politicized. the traces of uranium in richer radium at

83.7 percent, which has been reported by the agencies as factors. back in january, the information was leaked to the public car last week and uranium say that there was a reason that this was done. it's because to put pressure on neuron to comply with the agency further than what is mandated for it to do so. so this meeting certainly very important. his visit wrightfeld course, his visit certainly very important at a very critical time between the agency and iran. dolcy followed the story for a number of years now, and it's always very difficult to perhaps understand where things stand between iran and the i a e, a. when they have and have not had direct face to face talks. i mean, what's your understanding of where they stand at the moment, you know, diplomatically and strategically in this conversation about enriched uranium.

well, what has been taking place in iran's nuclear program has been, according to the officials who have taken the steps to advance it at a very rapid pace has been by their own admission as a result of political steps taken by the european countries in the united states since the u. s. withdrew from that nuclear deal in 2018. the radians have said that they are advancing their nuclear program because there is no compliance from the western powers. after the u. s. left that deal and the steps that they've taken are all reversible and they have admitted that they are enriching uranium at 60 percent since april of 2021. as a result of the steps, the agency has taken in putting pressure on iran to comply further beyond what has been agreed upon under the nonproliferation treaty and the safeguard agreements of the agency. so there is admittance by both sides, that there is political dimensions to the relationship between iran and the agency

. and iran is saying that this needs to stop and the director general also admitted that the leaks that have been coming out of the agency about what the inspectors have found is not helpful in iran, in building a relationship further with iran and the agency. so really politics in an inevitable between this relationship but the radians are insisting that they need to, at the agency needs to keep the politics away and focus on the technical aspect of her on the clear program which they continue to insist is for peaceful purposes. because we'll continue to monitor mr. garcia, visit with you entire on as it proceeds. adults, a thank you. no african nations are slowing their citizens out of tennessee following a government crank dial and undocumented immigrants. activists say, many people from sub saharan africa have been attack since present kai side accused them of changing the countries demographics rights groups have condemned his

comments as racist. and the african union says it's shocked by the statement while from deco his nicholas hank. you know, this is not the lesson as on social media, a video of another racist attack on black migrants in tunisia, such attacks are prohibited by law, but rights groups say they're condone by the countries president last week, k say it said quote, hordes of sub saharan africans, we're changing the demographic makeup of the country, sparking racist attacks throughout the nation. this is what is left of one black woman's home after it was ransacked. black men and women say they are arbitrarily rounded up by police because of the color of their skin. let me have them all over the wall. we are really suffering here. hundreds of ivory indians are now b repatriated, some injured, and unable to walk after the beatings will be what not. we live in fear. people are scared to go out. even those that have the right paperwork that

a doctor and for those that don't have visas, they get thrown out on the spot. many of them were hoping to make it to europe. most african migrants from senegal and west africa are not fleeing war, but poverty. but to europeans don't want them on their continent that have signed agreements with north african countries, like denisia to stop them from crossing the mediterranean. according to aid agencies, they are 30 to 50000 african migrants living in tunisia, illegally. denisia rights activist, miriam, my store says they are mistreated and do menial jobs that tunisia don't want to do . she says she and her husband have also experienced abuse for racism is, has a long history engine easier against black people, even if like people are like 10 or 15 percent of the population. now people engineers are in the social and economic crisis. so the, the president,

he uses black people as the cape goats, tunisians are out on the streets denouncing the attack, holding time thing donations come in all colors. it's not only a reminder of the diversity of the country, but a call for unity in the faith of growing bigotry and division. nicholas hawk al jazeera, the car, cynical, thousands of supporters of tin is his labor union protesting against president. ty said that accusing who have tracking down on government, critics of the prominent opposition politicians were arrested, presents a dissolved parliament in 2021. elections in december were boy cultured by the opposition accused him of a paragraph which president manuel michael has arrived in the democratic republic of congo on the last leg of his tool of central africa. he was greeted by the country's prime minister in the capital kinshasa. macro is trying to find new ways to maintain the french interest in africa, in the face of competition from russia and china. so let's take

a look at frances relationship with its former colonies on the continent. will frances withdraw from molly last year? and the keen offensive this year has highlighted a shift in politics in central africa, of to decades of colonialism. a near colonialism buchholz to aims to freight a more co operative vision, to his host nations, and gala, the republic of congo upon and the d r. c. the emphasis now is on partnerships and culture, science and education. but it also includes maintaining military bases where french troops, operators, trainers rather than commanders. milgar samba cilla is an economist who wrote the book africa, his last colonial currency, the c f. a frank story shows us now live from duck. a good have you with us on the program, sir? can we just begin with the fact that president calls visit does come at a crucial time that base him and the d. r. c. i mean, france needs to make friends having been asked to what remove its military

personnel from certain countries. and the d. r. c need support. it's ongoing accusations over rwandan interference in east and d off the yet it needs perhaps european support in that front. yes indeed, amanew mccoy is having a dog. currently in central africa are in a context where our france is facing a backlash from african populations are namely india said region. but at the same time, ah, france also is trying to, ah, i organize its interest in central africa in the sense that, ah, more and more there is this issue of fun, like lamb, it crises. and one way to try to solve it is to assure for so called protecting african price by the thing is, or forgotten. france have been for

a long time being ph by many companies, including her french companies. so it's really, i mean, an exercise of green washing to do to c d. so, so i made which happened recently in, in, in, in govern. i'm the story and of the story is that this is just a ceremony to say that, well, our friends to want to have as a kind of relationship to these africa without changing fundamentally. indeed, i mean, micron says that a french interference in african politics, natural military perhaps is over, but it's all about soft power, isn't it? to the issues of, as you say, the environment and things that can be mutually beneficial. how far can soft power progress? without it being deemed interference in your opinion, it has always been about the hat and soft power and this discourse that our french

knowing h m is over. well, it has been down for at least the last 5 digits. so every damn days, a need to do a bed this discourse to update this rhetoric. my director is here because our french government is still are backing, are unpopular. i would say even desperate divisions are that are opposed by the populations. so dis, ah, discourse cannot convince or many of their african populations. so that's dirt sat reality. but at the same time, our friends know that we are in a growing depaula world. and things could no longer be as they were so days and need to, to change things. but it is really difficult from the french perspective, thought to change things because they had not been used to that. many of these african nations have a very large young population and we saw that in 2021 present macro t. i to reset that relationship by bringing on board young people and civil society

groups in, in montpelier to talk about reinventing the relationship or certainly enhancing and changing that relationship. how much of a generational shift is there on the continent, from the old god to the younger generation that want a different working relationship with europe and the west. there has been a significant demographic shift. that means that now we have more and more young populations. unfortunately, for those young populations, ah, well academic prospects ad not bright, and they see that a one of the reason for this. one of the reasons for this is that there is still these french hold on their countries in the sands that sometimes they have illegitimate governments that are not working for their, for their interests. so there is this chance, that's why our present macro ah, i mean, convened in montpelier in going to join to launch pads. so galaxy was was id,

but that civic society was not african civil societies because they were chosen by emanuel mac or a himself. so this was also just an exercise. she said that we are more open to the young people. but if we open ness woods, rick, i added type so fi him in behaviors of that of relationships for example, started by asserting by abolishing the c f. a frank, for example, france would just say i am living. this is sam because france controls the system still, and this is a demand by more and more african people. and actually, one of the campaigns that says foster gosh, which means spanish go out in french, started by saying that we no longer wants france in hell military affairs. we no longer want france, militarily speaking, you see. so, ah, one of the best messages could have been, france will naturally go out from the ca, frank. and also will, i mean,

remove all military troops in africa, and that's a japan, that is a debate that is ongoing and no french influence. and we're seeing a macro saying, yes, we'll, we'll move our troops out. but on the other side, we're seeing african nations actually invite china and russia into the region. and they're actually having an impact. all people think they will have an impact on their nations. if you don't want one colonial type of influence, you are looking to other stronger nations, all african countries, i'll look into other stronger nations, perhaps with a worry that there may be influence there as well. i mean, what's the differentiation between the 2 well know thing is that we are in a multiple, i was a china isda, one of the most important economic act, us and now china, i began dofer's bilateral partner, the 1st straight back. now the 1st investor in many african countries,

so it's no model that african can't do his try to diversify their relationships away from no granular relationships with their former european masters. but at the same time, africans want to have, i mean, balance partnerships with any kind of law men x and not baton. so that is also a challenge and the, the button that ships could be, or so military as we have seen, or is some countries and russia. and that is also something we could say normally because it's about the sovereignty of states. the states individually be as sovereign to enter into partnerships with any kind of our partner they want. so this is something we could not earn. i mean i'd, he's nuts and christy them against african countries. they are free to choose the partnerships they want. the only thing is that they have to work to works. i mean free societies, societies that great prosperity for their populations,

and their extra partnerships are needed for improvement on political matters, etc. we shall see what happens, certainly, between all of these nations as they come to visit at central africa for the moment . turn on, get some priscilla, thanks joining us from duck. thank you. german chancellor, left schultz on the us present. joe biden had said that they will keep punishing russia for the war in ukraine. the 2 leaders met on friday in the oval office shells and biden pledge to continue supporting keith. together work block stepped to supply critical security assistance, ukraine and everything from what we've done to walk, step ammunition, artillery armor tags, air defense systems. and we've been together throughout this. let me just say this is a very, very potent yeah. because of the very dangerous piece that comes from

russia, ukraine and it's really important that we act it together organized, look, step up that we made it feasible because we can give the necessary support to ukraine during this time. i think it's very important that we get the message that we will continue to do so as long as it takes that long. that's the theory that we are ready for staying with the ukrainians as an, as long as necessary. so the head of the evolved messenger group says the ukranian city of buck looters almost completely surrounded by rushes and its allied forces. russian troops have intensified the shelling of aids to the west, making it harder full ukrainian forces to move in and out victorian bible to get moscow with the 1st major victory in 6 months. though years since the invasion of ukraine, russian autism form is a concern that they're being shunned

a southern job. it has war from moscow's bolshoi theater. 01877. the by a darker ballet has continued to perform. but it takes hard work and years of training to be able to pull off the performance, which continues to come out at moscow's historic portrait theater. there's no time to think of the conflict which has dominated the airwaves. but internationally, russian art and artists are increasingly being shunned. ukraine has removed russian port and writer, xander pushkin and others from most public spaces. even scientists and right is that luminous of are no longer allowed to be visible. you clean once it's allies in the west to boycott russian culture as well. moscow calls it a manifestation of discrimination against russian artists and limiting cultural interaction. in recent weeks, the foreign ministry has summoned the italian and dutch ambassadors for shunning

russian performers upsetting the russian artists. but the remain undeterred. fortune is that you made the term deal canceling russian culture. i mean, i feel sorry pity for these people. come with them. i can't even understand who could think of counseling chikavsky, and i think these are shallow, narrow minded politicians who make decisions like that from tolstoy that you called ski art and culture has a special place in russian society. many countries have cancelled or restricted russian performances since the invasion of ukraine. but for those who dedicated their lives to performing arts, they say it's unfair for them to be dragged into politics positions and also concerned about cultural appropriation. artist of the plenary is now labeled as a ukrainian at new york's metropolitan museum of art cleans you died in 1910 in the russian empire, while ukraine, as a state only existed from 1918 critics say russian painter,

even i was off ski who died in 1900100, has recently been made ukrainian a star conductor. the lady got a give and prominent pianist denise meant to have are no longer performing at the op spain, carnegie hall for the pro, kimberly views. oh, and the metropolitan not proposed popular soprano and nebraska from a run of shows last year for quote, not demonstrating she had seen the distance herself from president blood in a put in austria, canada, switzerland, and poland soloists. an orchestra faced similar actions. the royal opera house, this famous common garden ban bullshit valleys, london to distill it they were both refer mitchell from the age of 10, they started the academy and continued like that for 3035 years. now think about it every day from morning till evening. your work translates into tremendous physical exertion. sutra risten. pub,

is what russians to distance themselves from the government. but artists, too, always relied and patronage and support from the state is stifled between morning people in power. some of you drive it out there. altro theater, moscow. ah, well, still had hail and the news are dozens of police officers are released in columbia to be held hostage by rule workers protesting against an oil company. and gangs could beat the territory and haiti's, capital and civilians are caught in the crossfire. also in support, again, changing venture for women's cricket. that story coming up later on and he's had to stay with us. ah hello. it's still looking pretty unsettle across. so part of the mediterranean,

there's area of my precious still swirling away just around italy, pushing that wet a weather that windy weather over towards greece. as we go on through the next couple of days, colo, wendy, to further north we got this cold, normally blast right out of scandinavia. eventually making its way across. c, a pretty charles and into the island of arline. we got some wet weather, some when she weather just around the boat. it's easing further east was but you can see have as winds come in from a normally direction. so we are struggling to get about freezing over the next few days. it will be dry for london and paris, but temperatures no higher than around 8 degrees celsius a little below the seasonal average. it will cool office. he goes through the week with some snow possible for many pass at that stage as that disturb where the still swirling away across central parts of the met. then southern italy, down into sicily, pushing across into greece. nothing further east, which as we go on through sunday, and there will be some very wet weather, grassy making his way into to clear little bits of snow there. started to show their hand up to central and northern parts of europe. by this stage,

may wallace stays very hot for cairo, that suddenly winds still picking temperatures up to route 30 celsius in cairo for west africa, more showers around the coast. ah, with informed opinions far right extreme is there is real and need to be tackled as soon as possible. frank assessments. there was a joke about the interim government that it's not in tremor, nor does it go inside story. on al jazeera, march honor just here get a station and its aftermath. we have more on our continuing coverage of the earthquake disaster in turkey and syria. rigorous debate unflinching questions up front smoking until cut through the headlines to challenge conventional wisdom. 20 years on from the start of the iraq war, we examined how the past 2 decades have shaped the country. and the major challenges confronting future generations. documentaries,

that inspire witness brings, woke issues into focus through compelling human story. i made widespread industrial action and a cost of living prices paid government some way to turn around it's faltering economy, march honor jesse era. lou ah, welcome back to the news with me to hello robin and doug hall. reminder of all top news stories, the head of the nuclear watchdog says iran should be transparent about nuclear program. fail grossi made the comment during a visit to tack rug is trip comes days after i. e. a. inspectors found on the rainy a nuclear side, hunted rich,

uranium to near weapons grade level. everyone says it's nuclear program. it's a peaceful purposes. more african nations of flying, their citizens out of to nicea, or a government crackdown, act of his say, many black africans, abena taxes, present high site, accused them of changing the countries demographics. and the color outbreak that followed earthquakes and north west syria last month are getting worse. at least 3 people have died. earlier we spent to ask him steiner from the united nations development program. he explained what the u. n. is doing to help syrians and need the context in which the u. n. has to work as a whole in the syria is severely constrained, politically, sometimes logistically. and certainly in the face of this terrible, terrible destruction that followed the earthquake. it is heartbreaking not to have the ability to immediately be by the side of people, but i often after also say it is not that you end that created these conditions. i mean, we are responding ours humanitarian colleagues. i have a significant team in sierra that was working there before and we are under various

severe restrictions in which we are able to work because we cannot really do developing the traditional sense. we can only do early recovery and that's what we're focusing right now. following the earthquake, we are doing assessments to 1st we'll look at where the buildings have collapsed. we have working with ours, you monitor and colleagues to keep the local services, are the going re establish them whether it's electricity, water, and then again, you and the piece focuses on the early recovery and livelihood sector. this is our core focus. we lead the un country team in that area and we're going to focus on what we have done in other countries, which is help people to quickly get back on their own feet. people have dignity, they have pride. they don't want to be standing an acute, to get handouts, helping them to re establish their businesses, repairing buildings, reconnecting electricity. those are the things that will help people to regain a foothold in these some perspective of hope. and that's what we're focused on right now. now the navy, in case god, in the philippines, a scrambling to contain a league from a sunken tangle that's creating a huge oil spill. princess empress,

which had engine trouble, sank on tuesday of the coast of new john. the sick, stretched for 120 kilometers and this 9 kilometers off shore and thrusting protected marine areas. thousands of fishermen in the philippines have been ordered to stay ashore. bobby low reports now from oriental mendota it's been 5 days. says an oil tanker carrying $800000.00 leaders of industrial fuel oil or on filtered oil. sunk off the island of min doro, which is where we are right now. and that has cost and an oil spill. now on friday morning, the philippine coast guard said that there were signs that this oil spill is not as bad as previously thought. an aerial survey showed that the oil spill within the passivity of where the ship had sunk, had shrunk from 6 kilometers in length to 3 kilometers. but by the end of friday,

there were more coastal towns that were reporting sightings of oil suspected to come from the oil tanker that is submerged right now. we're talking about an area that is a 100 kilometers away for where the submerged oil tanker is. and is actually away already from the island off, mean doro, closer to the popular tourist island of murat deisel. there are fierce that the oil spill could further drift into brought dye, which is a, you know, a crown jewel for philippine tourism. but the main concern really here is that thousands of people live along these coast lines that have been affected by this oil spill. and we have been talking to fishermen and they've been telling us that they have no other source of livelihood, that this is what they've been accustomed to, their source of food, their source of income. it's all in the sea,

and now fishing is bad. swimming is banned and they don't know how long this is going to take. there are a number of challenges that philippine authorities are facing right now. number one are the strong currents as well as strong winds. they're having a hard time installing booms that could contain the oil spills. but the bigger problem here is the location. so the exact location of the sun can oil tanker we can't get to it because it's so deep. it's more than the height of the eiffel tower . and not with the reach of technical divers, they would probably need mechanical equipment, but which the philippines doesn't, doesn't have. so they're asking assistance from their foreign partners or below al jazeera. or you can tell me the oral the philippines to rio rancho as his executive director and energy ecology and development. he says the oil spill impacts marine

biodiversity, as well as the livelihoods of more than 2000000 people. this is really saddening because the location of the oil spill is actually within what is called the very the island passage which many conservation groups international conservation groups have a celebrated as the center of the center of global marine shore fish. meaning that a massive concentration of char fish, fish, species, growth and marine species are actually located. there are at least around 1700 different species of shore fish. i can actually be found there are, which basically are in the at least $21.00 marine protected areas in, in the province or mentor along a. so the, this situation on this oil spill actually really highlights the devastation and the

impacts on in marine life. but as well as around 22000000 filipinos rely with their livelihoods and daily on some sean from marine resource, s 3 pro democracy, activists in hong kong have been found guilty of security offences. lawyer cha, hang doing was amongst those convicted for not complying with a police request for information they'd organize gatherings to commemorate their tenement swear massacre. in 1989 authorities have banned an annual chinaman vigil for the past 3 years. citing corona virus restrictions. china is gearing up for his most important annual political gathering. delegates that the national people's congress will begin meeting on sunday to lay out the country's policy for the upcoming year. could really you has more from beijing top chinese leaders will gather on sunday for the 1st marginal people's congress. since the start of the

small and 2nd plays manchester city, both in action. the gunners host a born method emerett stadium, mckellar had to side have a 5 point lead after winning their last 3 matches. arsenal are looking to win their 1st lee title for nearly 20 years. see, we can do things much, much better in many aspects of the game we still have played with immense growth potential individual then collectively enter on a cycle up as well. we have seen that we can do much better and dim while ahead of ourselves match. manchester city have a tricky task that home prep. guardiola side take on 5th place. newcastle, united who themselves are chasing qualification for next seasons champions leak. one of the data supplements we have until the end of the season for the quality they can do everything, experience and the threats transitioned the set pieces the best him in the leak and you know, many,

many things that why they are there the new formula, one season is off and running and there was a surprise name at the top of the timesheets with fernando alonzo setting the pace and practice for the bryant bahrain grand prix. the 2 time world champion who moved to after martin for the season was less than 2 2nd quicker. and the favorite red bulls, the current world champion, match for stopping in sergio press. 41 year old alonzo hasn't won a race in the 2013 a spanish chrome pre and has played down his chances of securing hold position for this race. for like a good over a year. it's good to see the times that you are competitive after testing that if or with a mixed feelings where you are still, you know, we're going to qualify the race and maybe the 1st the race is very different circuits. yeah, difficult. last thought of the day, i mean, everyone was really bad. just couldn't get a balance. which was a bit odd because in testing, whatever we tried. okay. some things were maybe not amazing,

but not that far out. so a few things to understand even to sort of asked me to was a bit difficult, but then i think for the final run, even though not really having a good reference and confidence up until then in the car, there was a lot was not about in a short room and also the car felt a bit more connected. it was a difficult opening day for louis hamilton and sadie's, the 7 time world champion with 8th, quickest and fears his team are way behind their rivals. and we've been speaking to former red bull driver, david cole, tard, who was in car for a motor sports show. the 13 time grown pretty winner believes max for stop and has a great chance of winning a 3rd championship title in a row. that big fan brought 1st title, but they were brave and they made the right decision the right time. last year it was a more clear cut run into the world gym beach. it isn't a place where you have to be considered in terms of experience and delivery. one of

the best drivers in the sport got very hungry louis. we've got a very motivated group of rowdy drivers. is that your, her trusted, of course, every 2nd year and they learn so many great drivers and palmer, the ones that have the potential to really deliver you to this regulation. it was already quite close. if you look at the end of the year, you said is winning a growing pre friday and we're going to be shared victories in many ways. ronnie has a qualifying kind of the season that just didn't have the reliability and the strategic performance during the course of the year max defended and won his title. so i think we're set up for on paper one of the best championship tennyson. well, number one, no back jack of edge. his last for the 1st time this season, his 20 match winning street was ended by danielle medley. deb in the semi finals for the dubai championships. there were some incredible rollison this match. this

one lasted a 27 shots, the 3rd seed high that lost his last 4 encounters against chalk village. but this time he beat the serbian, taking victory in straight, sets, medford of, with his 13th, when in a row to remain on course for a 3rd consecutive title after victories and rotterdam and qatar. yeah, when you play against knowledge, you just have to play your best. ha, ha. kind of a hope that he doesn't play. he's best on this day because when he plays his best, i mean he has to 22 grand slam. so even if you play your best is going to be it's off, i'm not sure you in. ah, but that's so that's how tiny cities sometimes. so you know, you lose matches because he didn't play your best bet to that. so that's what happened a little bit. i'm happy that i managed to to play a higher than a level than him. a man today will face defending champion, andre, in the final 2nd see of his place after finally getting the better of alexander's, the red ribbon had lost his 5 previous matches against the german and had never

taken a send off him. but this time, it was the russian who walked away with victory. the brooklyn that's i've completed the biggest to come back when of this and be a season in boston. they rallied from a 28 point depth on the south, 115 to 105. and how bridges start on the night scoring $38.00 point lynn at austin that have now lost 2 of their last regain use. leasing and work around is eastern conference, leaving snow walking. great. now it's being billed as a game changing tournaments for women's cricket in india and beyond. the women's premier league is modeled on the money field, glamour of the men's i. p l. competition. and it's already broken all financial records in women's sports, probably metallic reports. now my con is demanding the bat increase. she's been playing cricket for a decade. it's by far the most popular sport in india con says it's the best time
