the, the business data we news long from berlin, the white house, the shores because of these fire talks are off to a promising starts in guitar. they're taking place as israel. the army claims it's destroyed, tunnels used by a mosque to smuggle arms and gaza health authority say the war is now costs the lines of 40000 palestinians also coming up swedish authorities report the 1st case of a new em fox, very and outside africa. this comes in the day after the world health organization declares a global health emergency as the variance through just across africa. the

welcome to the show i'm the call for at least we start in guitar, where you as official se negotiations to bring an end to the war in gaza are off to a quote. promising start. the talks come as the her monster on health ministry says the palestinian death toll from the israel home. us war has now surpassed $40000.00 a month, which sparked the war with its october 7th terror attacks on israel has decided to sit out the negotiations. but they say they will await proposals from israel, which is participating region is on edge as israel awaits retaliation from ron after the killing of her mazda. as a political leader is maya nia, inter, on earlier i spoke with journalist kareem, l. g o r e. in cairo and he told me more about the current status of the ceasefire talks. it was the negotiations starting now basically into ha.

and there was a way to build up for this because she is of course, was, has to do was the reaches tension. it was bringing up with the kidding off the particulars and how must be that is what i need in the military colanda for ciocca office for in live on. so that of course created another patient because everyone was waiting for the retaliation from here on from his phone, the phone or possibly also some differences. so the call 60 days, that's much why the circus and that's kind of precious to us and digital and the culture. and what's your address to us for this a new round of negotiations is you said to his phone a how much is not taking pocket and speak with churches. they say they are afraid. that is right, is going to impose your conditions as has happened many times before, and they call it that it is really triggered mace of negotiations. they want to

that this language changes based on devices flat and something that is already discussed since month. so they just went this a, chase is really the face of this negotiations. they might also, i painted the data point. don't forget that is how most representation i must office in to the joint negotiations a time. yeah. they're not present at the talks, but as far as i understand the situation, they're right up the street from where those talks are happening. how likely is that absence of how mass representatives at the table though to impact the success of these negotiations? the way you see the outline of the negotiators is a key as in some months there's really nothing new to negotiate. there is no new. we have to really advance that we have since months like a, a 3 face deal on the table. and the 1st phase release of some of the hostages, some of the policy in the christmas. and it's raining presents in exchange for 6

weeks. the ceasefire followed by sickness faces more releases in the basically the idea that says is really army. this is a permanent sense of the permanent society and then a swift phase, which is about the rebuilding the gaza strip, where you have to have all kinds of cause setups who is going to control the causes to think cases is a the obviously store that was turn or last time algo are in kyra, thank you so much to it. we can take a look at that and some of the stories making years around the world today. thousands of people in calcutta talk to the streets condemning the rape and murder of a female train. the doctor, under the slogan reclaimed the night demonstrators called for an end to violence against women in india. smaller protests also took place in other cities around the

country. it after a 12 year legal battle came dot com is to be extradited to the united states from new zealand, german born dot com is facing charges related to the now defunct file sharing website. mega upload is authority. se dot com and his associates cost film studios and record companies more than half a box can spread through close contact. because like symptoms and lesions on the body end can be deadly. slay the search is believed to have started in the democratic republic of congo. and bulk says, searching across africa, and this is ground 0 by thousands of cases had been reported in the democratic republic of congo. as a new outbreak grips the country, it's already claimed at least $450.00 lives, most of them children. and it's showing no sign of slowing down the road

that is double box. we're worried that on the more we don't feel that the government is mobilizing or that is concerned about the best way to try and control this epidemic, which is threatening to congo these populations. that's open what is formerly known as monkey pucks. and polk spreads through place, contact, causing flu like symptoms and painful, pos spilled legions. but this new strain is proving more infectious and even more deadly next. but speed of the growing outbreak in africa could just be the tip of the iceberg. this is not just the last week of the issue and books is a global plate, a minute that knows no boundaries nor is located in the 5 is blocked, it's blocked out, but not abilities waiting on all we just went and it these

in this moment of the bottom that ability that we must find, oh, great, the bottom and the most, but that we are or lovely from the plug with less so. and we are placed on the back to the world health organization. last declared impacts and international health emergency in 2022, with cases in more than 70 countries. that was loc, the shut down with the help of vaccines, and treatments in which countries that very few of those that are available in africa and global health officials. hype, this new emergency declaration will kick stats and the international efforts to contain the disease. well, just a short while ago i spoke to professor selene, i'm dual korean and epidemiologist, who chairs africa, cdc, emergency consultative group. and i asked him how this m fox outbreak is different

from the one we just heard about in 2022 of this. um, we have seen quite a different situation right now. so if you just look at the number of cases of employment that we have now, it's about 3 times higher than the number we had in 2022. then the world has organization declared a public housing emergency of international consent for inbox at that time. so we are seeing many more cases at this time, but it's not just that we have seen many more cases. the number of cases is a pc each week, so we are seeing an upswing in the number of new cases. and our concern, sadly, is that not only are we seeing a lot of cases and the cases i see, but that the case for tell it to you that the proportion of patients will i'm dying is unacceptably high. at this point. does that mean that the r c, i mean broader?

i forgot it's about the percent net simply, you know, a level that we have not seen previously. and then finally the catch the fuck. the issue we looked at the criteria we looked at was whether it is crating beyond the board. the board is of the d. c. and that's certainly the case in the last few weeks. 3 countries that previously hadn't parts of them marks. now the 14 cases of impact, so it has gone beyond the borders of the the seats. so we've got a lot of cases as far more than we've had before in 2022. we've seen an up seen the number of cases we're seeing a higher than expect the death of a and it spitting beyond the borders of the biase. all of that constituted enough grounds to be played a public healthy emergency. and we just found out about a case in sweden, are we looking at the prospect of a new pen demik here? i think once we start seeing it spinning beyond the boundaries of the i see there's

nothing stopping it from spreading everywhere. and that's gonna be an issue for us because there's so much of travel, there's so much of a mixing and impulse can also, in a way that's, you know, very mild. and so people will not recognize that they have this illness. and that's a big issue as well. right now, it looks like we've played one version of providers that spreading into the seats spreads quite to the ability to sexual transmission. and so, you know, that opens up pretty much, you know, any parts of it was in top in terms of this and, but it's also spreading quite rapidly among children and it's proving to be quite deadly for them. why is that? so in the past 2 populations are somewhat protected because they, you know, the only people they at all have been back to me to the again, small and so that provide some major protection. but now we have

a growing susceptible population that have not being vaccinations and that especially amongst the children. so if we look at this particular lead one be that's the taking a be any off this minus that spreading into the c m. it's only at this point in the d. c. as it's proving to neighbors, we seeing sexual transmission. and then from alice, we seeing a transmission to children. if i don't have the number of cases with the c, i in children that matched by the be concept. what do you say it was a mistake then to stop vaccinating again? smallpox? you know, i mean, would, you would have predictors that we wouldn't be in this kind of situation. uh, no, i think the decision was the right decision at the time. what we need now is we need, you know, a highly effective impost vaccine that we can, you know, provide in the entire community. we don't have their vaccines that's available. we

don't even know it's clinically a frequency. it's very expensive and doesn't lend itself to mass immunization. so we use the vaccines very do dishes the, to those only at higher risk. so right now, you know, we, we don't really have the kinds of tools in terms of vaccine. so we've got to go back to public health emissions, which a highly effective and that means case identification, identifying everybody who has an impact, and you've got to have the diagnostic tests. so it's not just the clinical diagnosis, but also making the diagnosis in the bar and she, and once we've got a diagnosis, is to then do the contact tracing and ensuring that all of those come into contact with this individual in isolation. so you stop the on woodside submission. so those probably just what the problem has been that in the d r c,

that's affected right now. there's some key will key region. there's a political instability. in fact there's a lot of pain in that area. so the hospitals are struggling to function, we can't even get the specimens to the bottom cheese. there's a whole chain of problems that's enabling the virus to spread in that part of the country as epidemiologist, professor selling them to a room, thank you for your time and all those insights. all of us do you, and that is our show, but i'll leave you with some dazzling pictures of an aurora borealis, but not like the ones you can see from down here on earth. this one was captured from the international space station. thanks for watching. stick around the,

on the long voyage through the ocean and mother, i'm back with account for a long time. they had to be humans on the journey, but now the premises have to come there, protect the of the w.
