they will you forage when their team under points against arch rivals, england at wembley. the tournament came to an end soon after. and there was another sting in the tail of it outbreak on and off the pitch scotland midfielder, billy gilmore tested positive, forcing him into quarantine, a post game chattman, england's bench as well. and mason mount also had to isolate even more worryingly. it was later revealed almost 1300 scottish fans were infectious when they went to london. the wealth health organization says support is traveling to gain is a recipe for disaster. how are people getting the other traveling and large crowded convoys of buses? are they taking individual measures when they're doing that? what's happening after the games, when people leave the stadiums, are they going into a crowded balls and puts to watch the matches if this mixing is happening among

people who are not fully vaccinated? and there is the presence of the virus that will be cases. this problem isn't restricted to the k finish or authority, say at least 300 fans were infected while following their national theme. mostly at the 2 matches in st. petersburg. that's contributed to a sharp rise in new cases at home. but despite these connections between euro 2020 and covey, the outbreaks you a for is pressing ahead with increased stadium capacity for the semi finals and final ad wembley. and politicians in several countries are furious. german interior minister horse they offer accused the governing body of putting profits over public health issues. i think that you wafers position is utterly irresponsible. absolute for them to put more associations say clearly we don't want

it this way. we're reducing the numbers of spectators at wembley on sunday, one group of fans will be celebrating day countries. great sporting success. but without further restrictions in london, fears of a coven hangover will only rise. he w responding charlotte chilson pill joins me now from london. charlie, good to see you again. covered 900 cases in the u. k. of reach levels. we haven't seen since january of this year. so why do you think the government is bowing to you for pressure? yeah, for yesterday over 20000 cases reported again in the u. k. they kind of numbers have been seen here for around a week now. roof, in cases driven by at the very contagious delta vary and here that explains, it's now dominant here, explains rapid rise in cases. so as you mentioned, they're not report. there is a good deal of concern and some courses. when looking at the math,

then i like the football games that a plan to take place the semi finals tomorrow on wednesday in the final as well. capacity that expect it to be $60000.00. that's roughly a to said capacity in those stadiums. now, this is all part of a wider picture here in england, the government is gradually eating coded restrictions. indeed, today the prime minister boris johnson, is expected to confirm that all restrictions on social distance thing will indeed be lifted in 2 weeks time. that includes mass events, so you won't just be a lot of people that will game season at music festivals. for example, there is some concern from scientists that, that is the wrong way to go. the government knows dressing that the u. k is simply going to have to learn now to live with it. exactly, boys, johnson calls the day once all the restrictions will be lifted freedom day

scientists call it a variant factory. what data is the government using to back up this decision? how will be u. k. learn to live with the virus? well, looking at those rising case numbers, but what they're also looking at is a number of hospitalizations and death. so just to give you an example, yesterday 24000 cases reported, but just 15 does clearly know when me the number of apologies that we saw during the 1st wave over the winter period when you are seeing similar is not high numbers . so they are looking at that and saying that the u. k. successful vaccination campaign is very much weakening the link between cases hospitalizations and death them to that reason they feel confident going forward. i mean, just look at the numbers. 86 percent of the population has had one dice in the backseat and he's 163 percent of had 2 doses. but on the other side of that there are some fine to warning that loosening restriction completely going ahead with

freedom day. as you said, it is being cold, have dogs have all the concerns they're looking at long have it, for example, the number of people exposed to that risk that looking at the possibility that increased numbers of cases. but it could need some more pressure on the health care system. and as you said, they're also looking at the risk of the variance. so it is something that continues to divide opinion him d, w corresponding charlotte nelson pill, always good talking to you. israel has seen that case number's rise by half because of the delta vary and israel was one of the 1st countries to come out of lockdown. and almost 2 thirds of the population have had at least one jobs. now, authorities are calling on young people to get vaccinated, so restrictions don't have to be re imposed to double use tonya cramer reports. the adam goodbye. he's taking his daughter's leah and i've been to get vaccinated

more and more young israelis age 12 to 15. and now getting their job like here at this small clinic and class saba. not least because of the fast spreading delta variant. and because many have plans for this summer, i think it's really good. it gives us much more freedom. and it's nice to finally, you know, corona's overstay and hopefully and yeah, i think it's important. it's still not settled because the countries have still not, not all of the countries have gotten that have gotten the opportunity to have the vaccines. but hopefully we'll be able to go sound down to very and has driven infections to levels not seen in israel since april, mainly among unvaccinated people because we still have a nice amount of people dictated young people that could see here when we think fascinating them young people that can be vaccinated, and we still see

a portion of the elderly people are not still vaccinated for various reasons. some vaccination people also have been infected. for now the number needing hospital treatment remains low, although the figures are rising. so we do see people who actually acquired the delta after being immunized and they can transmitted yet, there are chances to be severely ill to be hospitalized or to die or slim. so we, so we definitely see a very important role for the innovation can use really government is pushing for 12 to 15 year olds to be a knock. elated now with the bio tech 5 vaccine. prime minister, enough tally bennett is appealing to young people directly. and you know, that come up with some of the guys that i know how much you want to enjoy the summer and you can, i also have 4 kids your age and they to want to enjoy the summer. we don't want to

impose any restrictions on anyone know bands on parties, trips, no bubbles, nothing but you need to talk to your parents and get vaccinated. so that we have a wonderful summer with no closures and no restrictions. israel has re imposed an indoor mosque mandate and titan controls that the main international airport for good is relieved that his teenage daughters and now protected. it was somewhat of a difficult decision because there are a lot of unknowns. but there are a lot of unknowns in parenting. how long the give them on the i pad. what time should they go to bed? what food should they? what i know is that the vaccine would, these are all had big problems with the pandemic. and since everyone got vaccinated over the age of 16, the problems of all but disappeared further restrictions might be imposed, just don't feel very, it continues to spread. but for now, israel aims to get most youngsters over 12 fully vaccinated before some of its

doses expire later this month. okay, so look at some other stories making headlines around the world. at least one person has been killed and doesn't injured in an explosion at a plastic factory. on the outskirts of bangkok, the area around the plant has been evacuated and can be became a chemical co cause more explosion. julia as foreign and assembly to draft a new national constitution. it will replace the legal framework from the era of military dictator of protesters demanding freedom for people in prison. during social unrest clashed with police nearby officials and thereby sean say, a massive gas field explosion was caused by a so called mud volcano. the russian is still smoldering near the capital. by cool . authorities say there is no danger to people or the areas energy infrastructure

for around a week, hungary and prime minister victor or boston has been placing full page political adverts in some of europe's leading newspapers. today the ad appeared in germany's biggest selling tabloid built in accusers, brussels of building its own, quote, super states that nobody authorized and list hungary proposals for the future of the european union. these include the strengthening of national parliaments and standing against closer european integration. the ad claims you citizens must also be saved from what it calls the dangerous challenge of migration. a number of newspapers say they refused to run the at our course funding to pay. i mean, it has been following the story. i mean, why is victor or by doing this? there are several reasons for that. on one side is the external pressure that

hungary is facing over the n t l g b t q law that the parliament passed a few weeks ago. so he is trying, with this communication, push to go to several european newspapers to show that he's defending hungary position also inside of the european union. and another side of course, is also internal pressure there parliamentary elections coming up in hungary next year. and it's not looking good for victor all by and, and his leading party. so that's why i'm trying now to approach several newspapers to try to show this suggestions that sound rather like demands for the european union. some outlets refused to run this ad on what grounds? that's right. several media organization says that that they don't want to give a platform to a politician that they say subverting human rights in press freedom. a belgian newspaper, for example, did not publish this ad and is that published a rainbow with their words and mr. all bon law should never distinguish love from

love. so there are several newspapers who said that victor alba should not be given this platform. and this happened on a day that today, for example, him, he was placed also on a list by reporters with a board us as the only european leader joining several of the leaders. and that he is attacking the freedom of the press and also pressing on judges and on other several communications and media organizations. that is also why he's trying to push now and to say that this is a sample and hungry is defending. now this opinion that he is expressing in these ads is not a popular or a wide spread opinion among the member states, but or by isn't completely alone with his proposed approaches. he, he is not completely alone and he also, these positions also get support by and other european countries. for example, poland also levine, l slovak,

here. and there are the right wing politicians in germany and france in spain, who also support him here and have been criticizing the european union this linelle slovak here. and there are the right wing politicians in germany and france in spain, who also support him here and have been criticizing the european union. this latest discussion with and the prime minister of hungary is only the last of a series of discussions that he has had with the blog ranging form pressure on just as pressure on press freedom and also about migration that he's also addressing. and so does that. you intend to respond to mr or benz initiative, the spokesperson or the german government was asked about that earlier today. he did not refer to to that that was published. but he said that is important. and also in the charter of rights of the european union. they have been several politicians in brussels who have replied to this.
