10:08 pm
whole process will restock again is due to the fires and sickness and the suspense and they say that every single perceived normally so they were urging people to move into the new camp in order to have. that process continue in case continued there is a level of mistrust here between what the government authorities state what aid agencies say what people between them say and those people like salsa to name their 8 great seat in the street this. is something disabuse yes has been happening but the access to water and basic facilities toilets it's it's it's in any great depth what is over here i'm going to what are you been hearing from the locals there the people who live on those boats what do they think about what is happening right now . 3 think that it's it's it's far too many too many years it's
10:09 pm
far too long that this has been going on as 5 years ago all to september 2015 where 345000 people learned writing from turkey by sea on this island and b.k. . that was will be trying to tempt. because this was in transit times city. states in the states but they sold it 5 years later people are stuck here and january this year it was more than 20 people and more you can't. help those that have been tired and disappointed by by the policy bite situation you see that they have banged around to pull this crisis being in this gate of the european union he can't get more we'll get it as well. journalist daphne told those giving us the latest
10:10 pm

10:12 pm
restriction is especially bitter as israel had been held for its excesses in combating the pandemic earlier this year but after a 2nd wave hit the country israel is now seeing one of the highest infection rates in the world just a few hours before the country goes into its 2nd prolonged lockdown people in this market here in jerusalem rushing to get their shopping done the lockdown comes at the start of one of the most important holidays. to a new year starting friday israelis will only be allowed to vent to 500 meters from their home the finalist of fistric since and exemptions published on thursday is the new knockdown comes as the country has seen infection rates rise dramatically the new rules to keep israelis at home except for going out to cover basic needs to go out for shopping or to go to work school smallest sports centers will be
10:13 pm
shuttered and restaurants will only be allowed to do deliveries. this follows weeks suffered rhotic decision making by the government its handling of the corona crisis has been chalky criticised indecent weeks i think it's going to be hard. after one lock down i think most people are just kind of tired of it they see it as mainly political more than public health issue. and especially now with the whole days it seems that you know just a lot more people are not going to. not going to follow the rules that. they better share should be avoided and everybody's and rights and there's a sense of confusion i feel it is a mistake it wasn't by pat it was no exit strategy from the last knock down and now we enter another cycle of home i doubt that they match any of what i think it's unnecessary mostly because then lot of loopholes not to keep it and i don't know if
10:14 pm
my daughter will be allowed to work or a man husband i don't know what's open and what is not but. for now the lockdown is expected to last at least 3 weeks leaving israelis worry that the country could be in for an extended down period. well this week india became the country with the 2nd highest number of code 19 infections following only the united states with more than 5000000 confirmed cases and a week of daily increases of 90000 infections they are they're sort surging but the government believes the country's relatively low fatality rate is a sign that it has the pandemic under control they are dealt however about whether the $83000.00 reported $1000.00 deaths convey the true picture saying goodbye to a husband and a father not a young mitra died in july after he was admitted to hospital with
10:15 pm
a fever and breathing difficulties he tested positive for the corona virus but you won't see his name on the list of coronavirus fatalities a muscular disorder was the official cause of death the family confused. they will a feel that they are hiding death records otherwise why would they take my father so far away for chromate. the government are saying my father died of my esteem but they have created him according to cope with 19 protocol for the bill itself says. it's not a unique story and could explain why india has only had about 80000 coded 19 deaths in a country of 1300000000 people experts are warning that these figures might be misleading saying india isn't counting many deaths a claim that the health ministry has strongly denied. a certain degree of undercounting no doubt but certainly not to explain. number don't it for example if you look at deaths per 1000000.
10:16 pm
the current number is about 60000000 and the united states it's about 4 times less so population 8 games large do for a 1000000 so you cannot really explain that you're only on the basis of undercount to. death statistics were already unreliable before the pandemic in india with many indians dying at home without the presence of a doctor the lack of data can make it hard to identify where spikes are occurring as the economy begins to reopen leaving many worried that a certain deaths could be following the latest rise in cases. let's take a look now at some more developments in this pandemic new zealand has gone into recession for the 1st time in more than 10 years forcing prime minister just into ardent to defend her government's pandemic response ahead of next month's general election

10:19 pm
pandemic is that he says germany has been efficient and measures have softened the pandemics impact but he also says the government could do a better job of explaining why certain decisions are made. it is not sufficient to impose rules that people don't understand so the corporation off the palatial especially in the coming weeks and months. over over over autumn and winter. is probably one of the most important functions in the whole concept 2 to intervene justin says from a global perspective current developments in india are particularly worrying the virus is spreading there almost uncontrollably and he says the situation in many western countries could also become more threatening. there are areas including in europe where there is little control where countries already go into autumn with a high. background incidence i believe. there

10:21 pm
help them understand. granted some of that he is a student in berlin and like around 4 and a half 1000000 others in germany she's muslim she says she often experiences discrimination. statistics show the number of attacks on muslims in mosques here is rising last year the government recorded 184 such incidents the equivalent of one every of the day but experts say anti muslim racism also affects those who aren't religious. and joining muslim discrimination is based on certain indicators for example the language someone speaks their name or where they look the color of their hair whether they're wearing a headscarf or not to mention affects many more people than you might think and it's not about an individual's relationship to islam but rather the way they're perceived by others was seen from also much. anti muslim sentiment is becoming more visible in germany earlier this year 10
