so how quick intercultural understand the meaning of the in one way and i way to tell you. this is the wu news live from berlin the coronavirus hits north korea leader kim jong un calls an emergency meeting after a person shows covert 19 symptoms be isolated country has so far claim to have avoided the coronavirus also coming up britain imposes a 14 day quarantine on travelers arriving from spain where there's been

a recent spike in corona virus cases starts as spanish authorities reintroduce measures to prevent the spread of the virus. and policing the pandemic will meet the people here in berlin with the an enviable task of keeping party go socially distinct. i'm gathered as well come to the program north korea has placed the city of a song near the border with south korea under total lockdown after a person was found suspected of covert $900.00 symptoms leader kim jong un called an emergency meeting on saturday if confirmed it would be the country's 1st official case north korean state media say the person suspected of having the virus crossed illegally from south korea. for more on that story i'm not joined by just

smithies reuters correspondent in seoul in south korea josh if confirmed this will be the 1st case officially acknowledged by north korean authorities how credible is that. there has been a lot of suspicion cast on north korea's claims to have no confirmed cases so far not least because information is so difficult to get out of north korea in any kind of independent fashion obviously there's a lot of control on any kind of media access and even international institutions like the w. h. o. have only had to rely on numbers given to them by the north korean government and so while it's been a lot of suspicions that there is some kind of outbreak there we also have no confirmation that there has been any kind of outbreak and in recent weeks north korea had actually sounds showing signs of lifting some of the restrictions that it imposed there and so at this point it's really unclear and as you said this would be the 1st confirmation and so that's something that's when you get

a lot of attention if confirmed this case has been linked to a person whom the authorities in north korea claimed defected to south korea 3 years ago and just now returned to north korea what are we to make of. it is somewhat interesting scenario on several levels south korean authorities here say that they're still. figuring out whether that story does credible but they have said there's actually a good chance that someone didn't return to north korea recently at the same time it's unclear whether that person actually had covert of any type and so it's something that we'll never know the actual details of that in the past north korea has sometimes mixed a bit of facts and. fact and fiction together and that may be the case that we're looking at here. in seoul thank you. britain has

imposed a 2 week 14 on travelers arriving from spain after a surge in covert 19 cases that europe had only recently reopened most of its borders to travel nightlife in the spanish region of catalonia is shutting down once more while national authorities are introducing measures against the recent spike in infections as well the new restrictions are causing disruption to the travel industry and to tourists for. the u.k.'s sudden decision to take spain off a safe travel list you have to travel as with no time to prepare for its consequences 2 is to returning home environment breeds barajas airport were frustrated they had come on holiday with the understanding bay would not have to quarantine upon their return. i think it's pretty bad because it's just come all of a sudden it's not given much time to prepare. for everyone so our partner came and i also i think it ruins comes out everybody we had

a wedding to go to help plans to you know visit friends and family that we haven't seen in about a long time and not again have to cancel out as planned so it's really quite upsetting and those with holidays books for the coming days and weeks also face headaches to operated theory says it has canceled its upcoming flights from britain to spain but some airlines say they'll still fly possibly leaving would be holiday makers out of pocket. the rush to grab the mediterranean sun and sand after months of lockdown is believed to have contributed to this spike in code 19 infections in the country sending some beaches into a 2nd shutdown. in barcelona nightlife is scaling back once more with clubs forced to close and do re imposed curfew on restaurants and bars there are concerns young people could transmit the virus to the elderly france

is also advising its citizens against crossing the border into neighboring spain printing concerns over 2 isn't there. everything's going so badly maybe this year there has been a 30 to 40 percent drop in a very much as compared to usual if 10 or even 50 percent fewer french people come it will make a difference spanish authorities insist their country is safe with fresh outbreaks being local isolated and controlled fears of a 2nd wave of coded 19 across europe are seeing nations struggling to stave off fresh outbreaks while trying to reopen their economies. of story let's go to correspondent stephen bergen in barcelona stephen the spanish government says outbreaks in spain are localized controls so other measures taken by the u.k. and also by france to structure think. well i would say it's up to the.

decisions on the information. i think there's a feeling here in the case of the u.k. this is yet another improvised decision. and somewhat hypocritical to have given that you're actually far more likely to get infected with corona virus in the u.k. than you are here a moment the other thing is that the worst operates with there are some here. but the worst outbreaks are actually places of tourists who wouldn't visit as one that's an agricultural area in northern gaza. which is north towards the area told . outside of a. long time of posting. which is you know a working class dormitory. or risk of this is the other place. it off with another country for example which includes of course the blanket benidorm of places like roll tourist resorts there over there only 14 people in hospital the whole of our

country so. in some ways it seems it seems disproportionate. it's making this decision overnight just a story perhaps people people who are here will have to go home and ask for 2 weeks off work because they're going to be important in spain just open up one month ago after a very strict lockdown how big a fear is now if a 2nd wave in the country briefly if you can. well the government doesn't seem to fear a 2nd wave and they insist that it's isolated most of the outbreaks and not happened in public places is not actually true that they are mostly derived from beaches and mostly drug from family gatherings and people then you know missing having family gatherings and. that's basically been the main the main cause of them. i think that the other problem is the these statistics mix both tests of people with the antigens and people who are positive most of the people who are protesting positive

or in fact asymptomatic stephen thank you very much for this. 3rd time of a brief look at some of the other stories making headlines today australia's state of victoria has recorded its highest daily death toll from the corona virus 10 people died within 24 hours this despite a 2 week lockdown imposed in the state's largest city in melbourne the state leader says the outbreaks are due to workplace infections. and asylum seeker from rwanda has admitted to an arson attack on the cathedral in france the blaze badly damaged the 15th century church and destroyed its organ prosecutors say he was a volunteer who worked in the cathedral. several people were hurt in the u.s. state of colorado when a car drove through a demonstration against racial injustice police say protesters were walking along a highway when the vehicle struck them one of the demonstrators fired
