what's offering it's all it's worth jedward you do want to action this what about what the people as a government like must do and to nominate despite the pandemic. well there does seem to be a bit of good news despite the alarming rise in infections that's a tally of rates in india remains fairly low it's at about 2 percent why is that this continuing to be studies on this program but it also introduced that exploits how it worked out one of them if that india has a better to be younger block lucia now compared to developed countries which how much was it don't look at it and this population is actually keeping if you ask me to do well in the order population is comparable to the countries with more on that you want to protect what's there or doubt it's quite costly activity basically there is high exposure to india to other good and i want to. fight off

the disease better well we do now that the pandemic initially affected india's larger cities now we're hearing that it's spreading in smaller towns and villages what kind of a strain does this put on the health system in india. and it's definitely going to be a challenge right now because in the high end here districts continue to be urban centers however relieved and now gaining in the sheriff's office. now debt to google that and same rate as india is doing very little bit of the and so on and what has the infrastructure in the lead is also a moderate the government just pointed out however that because of the use that you've got of not hiding to get conditions to leave the sea in crowded cities like any of it should be easier to just i salute and cheat but there is also be constant splits the elections of the us leonid onslaught by as to what we saw in the cities

a grand spike in users governance and acting then in august and then joining that i guess. in new delhi we thank you very much indeed. let's get a check now of some of the other stories making news this hour police in the australian city of melbourne have made a number of arrests at a protest against measures to stop the spread of the coronavirus several 100 people gathered at the rally the measures including a curfew were put into place after a spike in affections in melbourne and in the state of victoria. at least 13 muslim worshippers have been killed and dozens seriously injured in a gas explosion in bangladesh the blast at a mosque outside the capital dhaka caused air conditioners inside the building to explode. people have taken to the streets again in the russian far eastern city of how bottle school demanding the government release former governor sort of

gave for go the weekend demonstrations have been taking place since july when the opposition politician was arrested on charges of arranging murders hall he denies all the charges calling them politically motivated. belo roses exiled opposition leader is calling on the united nations to help stop human rights violations in her country. and of sky urged the security council to condemn the crackdown on opponents of the authoritarian president alexander lukashenko well they include actors and musicians who have moved out of the theater and onto the streets w. correspondent nick connelly has been to meet them. he. is gathering is illegal and this means he has these days singing in public can get you arrested here in minsk every day for most of the coupons come up and sing in

front of the theater they've been locked out of the joining tens of thousands of all those demonstrating against the government. there it plays double bass in the old song. used to since the election. nearly oldest he's been out to straighten almost daily. now but i think most performers would not be able to go out on the stage and carry on as if nothing had happened the further out the loose is almost unrecognizable since election or was the 9th for weeks now hundreds of thousands of people are taking to the streets in peaceful protest demanding fresh elections they've been met with police brutality in mass arrests now the protests is a taking their message off the streets and into people's everyday lives it's a weekday afternoon like any other komorowski market that is until eric and his friends were i was told has become an unofficial national anthem and part of the

soundtrack of these protests. the sharpest reaction is no incoming. another day and a new location. the response from possibly was just. was as the street protests grow with every passing week police tactics are changing to blocking roads to spit protesters into smaller groups and arresting them ever greater numbers. but these measures just make alternative forms of protest even more important for eric and his friends. to the next level the government is trying to demoralize us and we get it working with us but we are stronger for it we will wear them out with sheer numbers bit by bit we will get that word out there is one thing you hear time and time again from protesters is that they've just had enough police here. israel

was one of the 1st countries to impose a tough long down in response to corona virus but it was also one of the 1st to ease restrictions on now is experiencing a 2nd wave of infections with more. daily cases than ever before the government has again implemented strict measures but that's worrying people in jerusalem many livelihoods there depend on catering to the pilgrims and visitors who have been part of city life for thousands of years. this lookout over drew slim's old city is almost deserted the city's holy sites a sacred to muslims jews and christians but now there are almost no foreign visitors since march is about supporters have been closed because of the curve on our virus pandemic dalia hima tharp usually works as a tour guide here but for more than 4 months now the israeli has had no work 2 days she's showing her grandchildren the ancient sites and stat. like you can see with

your own eyes the city 72 slim is empty of tourists who is no tourism there's no work and. most who study many people are unemployed and the businesses here are collapsing sick because of the lack of tourists in the area. instead residents and many local tourists and joy the less crowded streets but others missed the usual mix of locals and visitors like tattoo artist was the most who came here in the christian quarter his family has been tied to him pogroms with a cross 1st century so now business is down to just 5 percent for also missed the beautiful energy of the program's coming and. the happiness that we used to see on people's faces to 2 sometimes is the 1st in their way to for it for so long all their life sometimes to get the small cross or something as

a reminder of their visit to the holy land and we miss the. every day's sister in the bihar walks from the nearby convent to the church of the holy supper curd to pray in april the church was closed a rare event in its long history now it's open for just a few hours each day to dictate how it's very sad we are not used to seeing the holy supercoach church empty like this there are no people coming and going even the courts used to be a power when you used to go to pray i wasn't able to pass because of the crowd i used to keep saying excuse me let me pass it was the whole of life now it's empty and sad. the church is believed to be on this side where jesus was buried and resurrected while the peace and quiet is welcomed by some most would prefer to see this as return to help bring it back to life. just sports now

messi has announced that he is to stay at barcelona ending weeks of speculation about his future at the club he joined 19 years ago messi had applied for a transfer but was told he would not be released from his contract the argentinians said he couldn't get into a legal dispute with what he called the club of his life but he slammed bars of the president for his handling of the case. ok to talk more about all this i'm joined in the studio by anthony howard from. the video back and forth wasn't it all the speculation and now suddenly he's stating so was this announcement a shock it was a shock because we had made all these milestones that go with the normal run of events in these situations when someone's going to leave he requested to leave by fax by fax now if you want to call someone out for being a dinosaur a football club send them a fax i know you have to get it but i received

a fax. the suse's lined up the dead arrived in town everything was being ticked off we were ready for the real estate room is in manchester and then record scratch we get the news that he wants to say sorry he doesn't want to that he's going to just as he had walked out to enjoy his footballing. he's had to walk back in again and just like the couple at the wedding he said breaking up with each other walked into the next party and they're still together ok ok so but what changed i mean why this sudden decision to stay well that's interesting nothing changed the only thing that changed was that he couldn't get out of the contract stipulated the number of things that he had to heat to get out of there and that was telling the club that he wanted to do is the thing that needed to be financial. clear that he was going to get a certain amount of money from believing none of those things happened you could type because of. everything that happened everything was talked about nothing got done to be with gold dot com an interview he did not with the club but with another

website which is another telling thing here he said what do you think about the project and he said what project the reason our project they served him up a menage of this year ronald koeman has come he didn't like it in the premier league and now the best player of all time has got a manager this is just a continuation of the whiteness he feels about the club so it really seems like it was much ado about nothing in the end anthony you know the club were even by their own standards last season that pretty. bad we can say and is this the last dance of messi and barcelona going to be anything worth remembering now it's going to be oakwood i think fate is going to get stepped on it's going to be this is a sporting tragedy it's not a real world tragedy but it's a sporting tragedy because someone who earned the right to leave and the right to make he's on decisions is not getting the right to do that but as he wakes up with the tyranny saw this morning he's going to walk out of the bedroom through the study through the dawning hold for the 2nd dawning hole in the boat was going to

make him a cup of tea it's a sporting tragedy but leno is a very wealthy man and he's going to be yeah maybe a bit of bears thing maybe some awkwardness there but he's rich enough to get over it i would convict ok anthony howard from to use force always a pleasure to talk to you. and has the latest on the w. news this hour i'm marion evans team from me and the entire news team in berlin thanks for watching. literature invites us to see people in particular. like to see hans. von stroheim's. might. be booked on youtube. on meal time did not complete the 2nd season the only difference is still about the

environment still about society it's still about us but all planets on the brink response encircled leading experts in the fish. hook ups are still only real sense of. the. new. shift special how drones are helping humans during the krona virus pandemic and beyond. the scope of 900 pandemic has given drones acoustic piano manned aerial vehicles are being used to disinfect streets remind people of lock down measures x. deliver food as well as other supplies. this is a promo clip from the irish startup mana the company was set to begin testing its food delivery by drone service in march. but then came the coronavirus pandemic

now modifying its drones to a small town called moneygall instead we're delivering critical food supplies and pharmacy products to be competent at the time the cooling during the kind. of drones that they can deliver goods to lock down areas without individual people having to come into contact. 70 year old fidel like lease and water bread and milk or medications also being delivered directly toward doorstep it's absolutely fantastic and it's. like i've never seen a good day at best which happened as i wouldn't have my care and. there's. a single drone can make up to $100.00 deliveries per day manas founder bobby feeling says that if the government wants the start of can be delivering to $600.00 smaller towns across all. and by the end of the year. what's more he says monitoring the autonomy drones could be a job for airline pilots currently out of work because of the corona crisis. things

up by its municipal workers who are operating drones the beach town began using drones for ocean rescues to monitor forest and brush fires. now drones are also supplying elderly people in remote areas with medications disinfectant and facemasks the nearest pharmacy is about 2 hours away on foot. this resident says it's necessary for them to come to us where we live is remote but the distance doesn't count only the goodwill of the people. these examples show how creative individuals worldwide are using the technology to help overcome 1900 channel and has. several african countries like qualified john experts to help overcome this. i found at the african cademy where young africans can learn to build and operate drones.

deborah getting a flying lesson. she's one of the 1st students at africa's 1st drone academy. deborah plans to use what she's learned during the program to help her native country. many things that i didn't from here we had we had in the designing of the jones depending on the payload. trees and it's had to reach a. being able to fly drones accurately is important and hard to reach areas so from commuters to 5 meters over 10 meter range. the curriculum demands a lot from the 26th currently enrolled around half are female most and all are from

africa this was one of unicef's conditions for financially supporting the academy. africa many times has been far behind in technology and we think drones are the future we want them to start their own businesses join current businesses is really building up the journey industry and being more than just pilots to this and fellow students learn to construct and pilot drones integrate them into supply chain systems and analyze drawn data. grades in the basement. basically is a woman and. this lab is not far from the academy. deborah comes from humble backgrounds herself if the drone program weren't free of charge she wouldn't be able to afford it. and we are finding this rule is used for. the disease outbreaks at some point and. challenges season by

season different of them. also because of these different seasonal agricultural challenges malawi hopes drones can help protect small farmers like david george. the country is spearheaded using drones and data. in 2017 it open the world's 1st drone testing corridor. here companies like martin carroll's employer can test their drone solutions. martin is testing how to supply remote villages with medicines and surveying the region to identify areas at risk from flooding. it's a hard situation because you know it's a lot of families have a lot of history in the areas that they've grown up and i don't want to move our goal is to be able to provide the evidence showing that you know this is prone to flooding and this is where it could happen whereas if we move to this area could be less and less prone to flooding. so far drug companies like arrow can't find enough

qualified personnel in africa the academy is supposed to change that you see. today is a special day for debra her presentation on digital maps as part of her final exam if everything works out she'll soon be a qualified drone pilot and technician. deborah wants to specialize in land surveying in order to help alleviate hunger and starvation in malawi she knows what it means to be poor as her own family never had much. her uncle currently lives in a slum. he's proud of his niece and she visits him often. i didn't the number all students in malawi interest the group study says she is the future and the she is the 1st group that has shown interest to be drawn to go so i can see a future form allowed for. the drone industry looks set to grow rapidly and deborah

hopes to be a part of it she wants to found her own company that works with drones focused on helping those in need in malawi and beyond. more than 10 years. has been working on a call to. help save people buried in rubble earthquakes often cost many human lives. in the summer of 2016 these images from central italy shocked the world the earthquake with a magnitude of 6.2 buried hundreds of people and destroyed entire villages. davida scott i'm with son knows the pictures all too well. he grew up in a region often affected by earthquakes. these events are actually shocking fortunately i was never actually affected personally it was not only in the middle

of it disaster but of course the things that you personally and i always wanted to be able to actually help other people with my back knowledge of. what. the scientists dream is to develop a truly autonomy micro drone to be used in search and rescue scenarios. and yet the professor for robotics and his team have been working on this project for more than 10 years old so the idea that all should be something there when you've got that is a disaster. for 5 years so the soup of action i drive today plays off and it will finally find its way through the building and find also its way you know the free space within the building you can also mop the environment localize where the victims are drawing and then find its way out from the building. the design is

already largely completed the small drone has been equipped with cameras that it uses to scan the surroundings an onboard computer analyzes the captured images and extracts prominent reference points to create a detailed 3 d. map. this allows it to locate potential survivors of course the drone also needs to reach them and that presented a problem. earthquakes can reduce everything to rubble in order to reach people trapped within a drone would have to be able to get through narrow passages and type tunnels. the solution a drone that can adapt to its surroundings by folding and reshaping itself. 4 independently rotating propellers are attached to mobile arms. thanks to servo motors these can swivel around the main body allowing the drone to fold into an ocean to pass through holes from. to

inspect an object from up close and they can turn into a t. shape. and it can reposition its arms to get through narrow passages. and. the drone flies autonomy asli using a special software that registers points on structures and follows the fly. this enables the drone to constantly calculate its own exact location and speed. a training ground close to. this is where re dog the swiss society for rescue dogs trains for emergency situations. when looking for buried person after an earthquake nothing beats a dog's nose but there are limits if a building is at risk of collapsing the mission is too dangerous for humans and animals. re doc thinks these are situations where

a drone could be useful. although the drone is foldable which is great because it can enter buildings through tiny openings and that's really important as pathways can be very small. autonomy's flying is another great feature as cable is communications and connections often get interrupted in the rubble. we don't use his telescope cameras to look inside buildings. but these can only extend some 5 meters after that there's no way forward. i think drones would be great as one of several tools for instance if i use the camera and realize that there's a large hollow space in that i can't go further but i need to then the drone is a great addition. another helpful feature would be a microphone with intercom peters' that way i could communicate with somebody very far away inside

a building and that would also be really important the severe hope we stick. takes these needs to heart at the moment however he's primarily working on battery life and the drone speed. thereby that i followed the only solution between 20 and 30 minutes that means if you want to be able to the mall in the boston well you know if. there are many obstacles flushed overcome for example you need to be able to see foster and to make the reasoning process think so at the moment are working on these 2 big problems. the robotics professor will continue researching and in a couple of years his dream of the perfect rescue drone may well be a reality. always

and yet undeniably different. during the pandemic some are. starting to turn back and read what kind of an experience i may and or. friends seem to determine capital. didn't beethoven in villages to dictate to didn't want to do. so many romance the stolen beethoven. it was course the subconscious always
