mean if confirmed this would be the 1st case officially acknowledged by north korean authorities how credible is this well as with all things north korea their claims of having no pieces has been met with a lot of skepticism due to the lack of hard information coming out of north korea so there is a lot of skepticism but this is in their 1st case that being said we also haven't had any firm cases otherwise and so if this does indeed turn out to be the case a lot of people expect them to potentially announce that they've had other cases as well which will be something that people are watching very closely josh in this case has been linked to a person who missed the words claim defected to south korea 3 years ago and just returned back to north korea what if anything or we to make of that. well south korean officials have said that there is

operated t.v. 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 spanish officials insist their country is safe without brakes being local isolated and controlled. britain's foreign secretary said the u.k. had had no choice but to swiftly respond to the emerging data it showed a big jump right across. assessed yesterday. and we took the decision to swiftly as we could otherwise we risk reinfection into the u.k. potentially a 2nd wave here and then another lockdown in barcelona nightlife is scaling back once more with clubs forced to close and they really imposed curfew on restaurants
