bangladesh are fleeing their homes at this hour as a huge storm races and cycling omf on is packing dangerous hurricane force winds it has already brought heavy downpours and major flooding is expected as it moves inland. is also hampering the response to the coronavirus and both countries. howling winds and heavy rain. nature's full force is about to be unleashed. india's eastern coastline and bangladesh across the border are bracing for the storm cycle and am found is predicted to be one of the fiercest storms to hit the region in decades making landfall with winds up to 180 kilometers per hour in some coastal villages sandbags were piled up as makeshift barriers against tidal waves more often authorities asked people to head for shelters that were hastily being readied but with the corona virus spreading rapidly this concentration of people

bears its own risks. for the 1st time ever we're dealing with 2 disasters similar taney asli the 1st disaster is ongoing covert 19 which you all know about and while this outbreak is happening there is another disaster looming in the shape of the psych lone. as the virus spreads silently and the winds begin to blow the calm before the storm is about to come to an end and. let's go straight now to our correspondent neera choudhry in delhi good day to human error what's the latest you're hearing from the areas in the bay of bengal under stress. according to the latest reports the cycle fund will be striking the eastern coast to region sometime between 4 pm to 6 pm in didn't local time to do the rescue or for the evacuation efforts are still going on

the eastern states which will be impacted the most. multiple districts of these 2 states will be impacted so according to the reports well there are 400000 people who have been evacuated from these 2 states and have been moved to image and see shelters according to reports or 2000000 people have been evacuated in bangladesh at the moment to the priority is to see it as many lives as possible and for that in india over 40 disaster management teams are on the ground and even some sections of the indian navy are on stand boys signed by to provide the medical aid. how does this storm compare with past ones past. when it is being said it's being said that this is one of the most powerful cycles to hit the countries in. the last like it or not such an intensity to hit was one that came in 1990. 2 a loss of over 10000 lives in fact this cycle was in the category of. cyclonic storm

about 24 hours ago but lately in the past 24 hours the wind speed have to has been weakened a little and now it is being characterized as an extremely severe storm but nevertheless the damage which can be caused by this cycle is quite bad and it can inundate many lying areas shows like low incomes is the government is of course an acting career virus containment plans how's how are they being affected by this approaching storm. well it just cooling to be a big challenge actually because some of the districts in the state of west bengal which will be affected by the storm are actually identified as being identify the dead zones where multiple cases of corona light as have been detected and of course in the evacuation missions it's almost next to impossible to maintain any kind of social distancing norms because a large number of people have to be put together in emergency shelters and apart

from that there are problems of migrant laborers who are still making their way from big cities like delhi to these districts all focused being what i'm really sad the moment they might be finding them says john good on the week so at the moment the guy to do is to save lives from this stone which is about to hit the coast but again though the if floods do go the spread of corn why this might take a hit in these many years thanks so much for keeping an eye on this in delhi all world health organizations member states have backed an independent investigation into the u.n. agencies handling of the global pandemic this follows sharp criticism by u.s. president don't trump is accusing the organization of being controlled by china and has threatened to cut its funding. the war of words between donald trump the world health organization and china has continued into a 2nd day after the us president threatened to leave it up you hate show on monday

basically they have to clean up their act they have to do a better job they have to be much more fair to other countries including the united states so we're not going to be involved in doing a separate trump post at the open letter on twitter stating that if the world health organization does not commit to major substantial improvements within the next 30 days i will make my temporary freeze if you know it to states funding to. and reconsider our membership in the organization. china's foreign ministry criticized the u.s. president's threats. the letter tried to mislead the public in this plausible way to launder china's prevention and control efforts and shock the u.s. has responsibility for incompetence in its own prevention and control this is futile . believe the movie to sit with other. member states agreed to a comprehensive and independent review of the global pandemic response as always

definite jordi manes fully committed to trying to spot and see accountability and continuous improvement we want accountability more than anyone the review will take place a quote at the earliest appropriate moment. was previewed some other coronavirus developments global confirmed cases are now approaching 5000000 the death toll is more than 323000 brazil has confirmed a record rise daily deaths from the disease 1179 people dying from the virus on tuesday south korean high schools have reopened after being shut down for about 2 months under those of thousands of older students have returned to the classrooms under strict controls and new zealand's prime minister has suggested that employers consider a 4 day working week as

a way to boost tourism and business activity. well the world cut its daily carbon dioxide emissions by about 17 percent at the peak of the pandemic shutdown last month a new study shows a huge reduction in global greenhouse gases lockdowns give people at home a core of course in cities around the globe as roads were virtually empty the skies much clearer than they've been in many years for one week in april the united states cut its carbon dioxide levels by a full 33 percent the study was published in the journal nature climate change the world's biggest emitter china of its carbon pollution by about a quarter. one of the study's co-authors rob jackson of stanford university told us that greenhouse emissions will return at some point to prepare endemic levels and he said that the crisis has also led to a change in thinking in a number of areas it's a hoax i think one thing that the virus is allowing us to do is rethink mobility in

transportation. your cities are keeping streets closed to cars that they allow pedestrians and bicyclists to use we're all getting used to telecommuting and may want to continue that at least a few days a week and nobody misses spending time in rush hour and finally i guess the biggest change we've seen is the beautiful blue skies that have come from from putting our cars on the street and garages and and and if we can have that every day by coupling electric vehicles with clean energy what's not to like we don't even have to shelter home rob jackson stanford university there stick a look now at some of the other stories making news today 11 people have been killed in 2 separate gun attacks in afghanistan in one gunman stormed a mosque in our want province the other attack in the easter eastern coast province targeted a family returning from a mosque the taliban's denying any involvement so-called islamic state has carried

well it's a bittersweet situation because on the other hand the dodge about it is not yet very strong it is really working hard to restructure and have a lot of problems from the past but all the other hand i mean this is the kind of situation where it's a new strategy exactly mate for that want to be a reliable partner for corporate clines a large corporate client and we can say i've got a client especially in crisis and so do you now can show what they're able and what they're willing to do and it's very good because our competitors have to deal with their own market specially form and thanks we've been active so it's a very mixed. bag was very mixed feelings into this crisis ok there have been some bright spots at this some banking divisions have been doing well they posted a profit last quarter which divisions are doing well right now. everything related to trading earth a special selfless at the moment because you choose a large blue pill if you have price of everybody's trading at the moment you have

to readjust what follows you must really just just if you've always done this training so to be some extra incur income for bones and start the exchanges as well and profiting from there although not as much as for example american banks are still blowing this but they are ended but this is something which happens only for some pipe so afterwards says prices are more steady this will go down again what is maybe a better signal is that a lot from from the credit portfolio i'm not that outstanding you big and that's a real threat at the moment holding open we still say what does this mean for the belge of the banks professor bergen thanks so much from the university of hohenheim there not often i'm thanks very much for coming in today. oh voters in burundi are going to the polls in a crucial presidential election there that could see the 1st ever try to transfer of power in decades this comes after 5 years of political violence following the

last election over accusations the result was unconstitutional the coronavirus could also pose a threat to voter turnout. since 2005 but surprised by not seeking a 4th term has anointed successor ever reese and is an army general considered too close to the government's alleged crimes nor as someone who tried to stop them in other words a compromise candidate. i would like to tell you. found no president has supported his successor because i too have never benefited from the support of my predecessors i'm aware. that sentiment reflects. his history in the transfer of political power. to the top in 2005 as the result of a peace deal that ended over a decade of civil war critics say his decision to run for another 5 year term in

2015 violated that deal the resulting violence cost at least $1200.00 lives that's on top of hundreds of thousands of deaths from ethnic strife in the decades since he gained from belgium in $1062.00 landlocked as one of africa's smallest and poorest countries the world bank estimates that 75 percent of its 11000000 people live in poverty. there's no money or nothing since morning we've just been sitting here looking but we can't find any customers. in the government. a new cycle of violence. been accused of rape torture and murder rights groups say the president himself has encouraged crimes against humanity and campaigning has gone ahead without regard for the coronavirus pandemic as has public life in general critics accuse the government of covering up the true scale of the public health crisis something the winner of today's might not have the

luxury to ignore. this is deja vu news live from berlin still to come on our show tonight. they made tomato soup as famous as well jackie kennedy and you find out how pop artist turned the ordinary into cultural icons that they knew for linux at . but 1st singapore prides itself as a high tech global business hub but the city state has little to boast when it comes to the coronavirus crisis as currently it currently has one of asia's highest coping $1000.00 infection rates still authorities are making plans to exit a partial lockdown anduin the 1st and they're turning to technology to contain possible further outbreaks but some critics say their controversial approach has technical flaws and raises human rights issues and more. painful spot ones to keep you healthy the robot enforcer dog is being trialled in

a singapore park given the city's state's tech friendly ways it's no wonder singapore was also among the 1st to introduce a tracing app. users of the app exchanged out of via bluetooth when their phones approach one another that's supposed to make tracing contact easier when someone is infected but so far only 27 percent of residents have downloaded the app some experts say the project is too ambitious. you need 60 percent or 80 percent of your population to download these apps even if they do work and so unfortunately this employee doesn't come close to that a need to have anywhere else and so so far they haven't come close to delivering what was hoped for them surveillance is part of daily life in singapore data privacy is of less concern than elsewhere still fear of state snooping is one reason some residents have rejected the even if they're reluctant to admit it and

the technology is not perfect you know. and no no don't play. they don't know how to use the. line. why do you need to do that. so for me personally i being a. poor system. so you don't. 2 months after rolling out the apps singapore is trying a simpler technology called safe entry whether at the supermarket the barber shop or the work place people can come in only after scanning a q.r. code or their id card no exceptions. you could even use it in a public park if you wanted to get into the superbowl botanical gardens for instance you would have to log in and log out again just to prove who being there it's not as ingenious as the app in as much as it it's not going to tell you who

has been close to one another safe entry therefore cannot replace the app experts disagree whether the app should become mandatory if you don't. but i think it's about not wanting to. exclude the citizen that the person they think in singapore. exercise some feel will so despite appeals for unity there is little consensus in singapore over the tracing out. a lot of questions about free will and freedom there to unpack all of this we're joined now by professor long the end of singapore university of social sciences professor thanks so much for coming in today i'd like to focus 1st on on the safe entry app do you see people accepting a mandatory government to have on their phones in order to get into their workplace to shop for food to access basic services well so eventually it's

not actually it's a system that and the price that the business have them and and this is by law now that all these businesses that specially small business have to implement at the entry points and points at all they use it the mobile phone and scanning the court and that allows them to the basic data which is the name their telephone number and the national registration number and the. register person's point of entry and a kind of entry and exit exit so it's no different from let's say someone entering a business and signed the release of the registration but this those means the government knows where i am all the time where i'm checking in where i'm checking out them i understand correctly. yes the information is sent to

a particular agency in the government will have the information and the information is but that but by national at the bus no. but that data protection act which means that information cannot be abused or used unless it is for specific purpose and the specific purpose right now is when you fall in contact tracing ok it will and after that the app will no longer be in your area about 30 percent of people have downloaded the tracing out that follows their movements is that going to be used in the future is that part of singapore in life now the tracing or well the treason have and and a sieve entry at the other measures and technology will soon be rolled up as well they are part of all package cost safety management and this nisus. in some places is something to ation many thought it will apply those that knowledge is an in some situation some say some of that that knowledge is

a cheap option up was ample trace the guy that is optional but the thought that the thought that knowledge to sift entry and trace together actually have 2 separate scenario where they applied said entries only useful where there is less of edifying entering a bubba shop and a bubba shop a small little bubble area but if you enter a big shopping complex and in the complex tens of thousands of people then in the end the mingling of people in that area will be makings contect facing almost problematic to start off with so you need. like i like to trace together so in most all the medicine a lot of the nation well as well you know must be all without huge campuses multiple entry points and so on well the organizers in themselves as business continuity management normally require get an implement that ok well

not just continue if you have done there's always low. so the adoption rate is low and i understand that why the low bhatia least because right now ok one thing we have to leave it up we how we would there's a lot to talk about there we'd love to continue the conversation professor for now though thank you very much professor long teen yang of from singapore. well here in germany museums have reopened to visitors and if you happen to be interested in the 1960 s. well you're in for a real treat one of the largest collections of that decades pop art is now on show at berlin's museum of prince and. it wasn't just flower power in the sixty's pop art all the. infamy and there's a bounty of it hardly anyone has the milieu of now it's on display for the 1st time . so i think this is the moment to show everything we've accumulated it's one of

the biggest collections of its kind in germany if not all of europe just. a different state museum has an impressive collection of pop art including works by the artist who made it world famous warhol. culture for the masses and all of them stars actually get a new era in the art world suddenly the monday features of everything in life landed on does the big screen and canvas as pop art. the artists went out into the world and discovered shopping malls and stores and supermarkets. even free themselves from the bonds of artistic concepts and found reality. let's let's note is that pop art had its own 1960 s. burroughs in what was west germany. painters like printed his arguments series a revolutionary act of art. german pop art was more critical than its american

counterpart. big and more irony. america was very direct perhaps the most innocent aggressive and striking movement in contrast to european palm art. and the great atmosphere of post-war europe when along came this offensive way with almost a missionary spirit of commercialism which you guys call with all the new products and right images of the united states. in the u.s. . part was a male to name women were muses are sex objects pure projection just like in advertising as the old adage goes sex sells and that certainly applied to pop art. but this exhibition turns that on a ted. pop art revelation. that can man. a man cooks with could it be he's actually

a work in the kitchen some would say now that's the right kind of pop and high time for. the. remember you can always get more on these and other stories our website. for now though for me bryan thomas the entire news team thanks so much for being.
