equipment that we actually don't have to provide sufficient medical. pleas from hard hit towns in ecuador as the bodies of victims are being left on deserted streets because health services can cope with. that you. took a kid. there this is out international from moscow welcome to the program is just to. the south a day in a minute for this 30 minute world news roundup for you and 1st to our developing news stories mentioned in those headlines than one person has died after an exploded in an apartment building in the moscow region. it happened in

a town that's around about 89 to climb to the east of the capital 5 have been hospitalized with injuries there the emergency services say the explosion happened on the 3rd floor destroying 5 apartments and badly damaging 5 others as moving for you get a better idea of the scale the scale of the destruction then they can see in that picture emergency services say there is no one they think currently left under the rubble we spoke to a witness and also local residents 1st of all i was in my balcony smoking then an explosion happened in a building and from where i was i could see the corner of the building i saw smoke shook with was so strong even reached my windows. i was at home when i heard the noise it sounded like a building was shaking i rushed to the street but i couldn't see anything then i heard the police and firefighters sirens i followed the course and saw people standing outside in blankets among them were many children and elderly people the fire protests have already started their rescue operations point people out of the

rubble is still early days across one of them is way there may be able to report later at this hour where that blast has happened we'll update you later in the bulletin anyway. you know another developing story today 2 people have been stabbed to death in southeast france at least 5 others have been injured there police have arrested a man but have not given any further details of the alleged motive more on that than from our friends correspondent shallow diversity. well we haven't had very much from the police other than the fact that the perpetrator behind this attack has been arrested and now an investigation is underway into what the motives were behind that attack what we know from local reports as to what happened is that this took place in a coalmine just south of leone called hormones. and it took place at around 11 am local time here in france now we understand that the assailant was armed with a knife and he had packed passers by in the center of this comment and also

according to reports went into some of the shops attacking customers and also start inside those shops now we understand 2 people have been killed as a result of that attack and several others were injured including some who are said to need critical conditions or in critical condition in hospital right now receiving treatment for their injuries we also know details from local reports about the attacker we understand it was a sudanese national who is an asylum seeker here in france and that he is said to be in keys thirty's we have heard from the interior minister here in france this is what christopher kastner had to say on twitter or my thoughts go to the victims of the attack at romance or is there and their relatives their ledge perpetrator was arrested by national police the police and leon are mobilized under the authority of the justice department to stop was the nature of this horrific act and we've

also had witness reports it's been reported by local media that he shouted ackbar while rushing towards his victims but that hasn't been confirmed by the police he has been arrested as i mentioned and the counterterrorism police are investigating but they haven't taken over this investigation fully yet and it is too early for them to label this a potential terror attack. next these are the latest figures in the covert 1000 pandemic today billions of people are currently under some sort of law but the number of corona virus cases is still rapidly increasing there are now more than 1100000 registered infections more than 60000 have died as registered and almost a quarter of a 1000000 people though have recovered. so

latest developments with it france has now reported its deadliest day yet with medical staff on the front line saying they're exhausted and still under equipped hundreds of nurses are raising awareness about the lack of protection by photographing themselves naked they are symbolic campaign runs with the hashtag make it against covert $191.00 of the nurses involved says the french government's putting health workers as a deadly risk. here's what our government has given as to fire the call that 19 as you can see we need a full range of necessary medical equipment that we actually don't have to provide sufficient medical help for our patients and there were risks for us as well as for them the government process and patients and a threat we decided to perform naked as part of this campaign because our thought is leave us naked in the face of the pandemic. france is now laid on special high speed trains for moving infected patients between cities it's to try and ease the burden on overwhelmed facilities by transferring the sick to less crowded hospitals

. do friend shell again says the country's health care system has been in dire need for over a decade. i think our interests should be represented but nobody protects us on a governmental level it is not only the current government that bears responsibility for the situation we find ourselves right now france's health care system has been a dire conditions for 15 or 20 years as the 5th of the 6 strong this european economy doesn't have the capability to take necessary medical measures need to understand that to appease these choices and you're pretty aware of that this is our reality we have to choose which patient or treat. what a predicament what just about every country is having a tough time trying to stay on top of infections of course but in ecuador so many sad stories harrowing pictures coming through the country as more than 3000 infections and 145 known fatalities but in one city there are reports that families are having to leave the bodies of the dead on the streets health service is

struggling to cope but the government says it is building a special facility for corona virus victims. my brother has just died due to a respiratory problem he's here outside the house the police told me they can come and collect the body and i have to wait a day more but the body lying here on the sidewalk. you know what did. he do this is. good this is.

very. clear. 3 that it was ready ready. so sad isn't it while other news to tell you a member of the british science group responsible for mapping infections once the herd immunity strategy now to be reconsidered again that would involve allowing 60 percent of the population to get infected it had been suggested a few weeks ago but was quickly abandoned because hospitals rapidly filled up professor graham medley says the lock down as it is the moment is not enough. this disease is so nasty that we had to suppress it completely then we've kind of painted ourselves into a corner because then the question will be what do we do now in broad terms are we

going to continue to harm children to protect vulnerable people or not if we carry on with the lock down it buys us more time we can get more thought into it but it doesn't resolve any think it's a placeholder britain now has more than 38000 cases more than 3 and a half 1000 of died and that's now the more the number of fatalities as recorded in china in other news another tracking solutions being floated by the health secretary who's just recovering himself from the virus but hancock's looking at issuing immunity passports to people who have developed antibodies are looking at immunity certificate and how we can how how people who are have had the disease have got the antibodies and therefore have immunity can show that and so get back as much as normal to as much as possible to normal life but it's

too early in the science of the immunity that comes from having had the disease but the problem with that is that the u.k. hasn't yet approved an antibody test of health experts say it's still not at all clear whether people with antibodies are in fact truly immune to reinfection we discussed possible ways forward with the british lawyer luke guitar some liberal democratic party politician helen belcher. there is no antibody test that is functional which has been currently developed and we've got 66000000 people in the country to try and test to get certificates for and naturally some of them will require retesting so the practicalities of this are impossible practicalities it difficult non-playing know it's going to be easy but it can be managed you know germany has implemented a system that which we are attempting to model and i think what we can't do is underestimate the economic damage of the entire population being on lockdown you know we're seeing a 1000000 new claims for social security are you quibbling in this country going in

suggesting people are losing their jobs feel as if they're about to lose their jobs of course the government is not going to allow any system of testing there is certain but if we can get to a place where we let people return to work if they have the necessary antibodies if that is scientifically possible then in principle it's something we absolutely have to support part of the government's strategy i think is to try and make sure that we flatten the curve as much as possible but we're trying to do that at the moment without adequate testing a tool and so i would much rather government focused on getting the current tests out to everybody you need them and we need to concentrate on get solving that problem 1st rather than trying to design pie in the sky schemes around something that doesn't even exist yet can't allow that uncertainty to lull us into a state of complete inertia and i don't disagree that obviously p.p. is an absolute significant priority but we also have to recognize that getting people back to work is a priority i think one of the problems with the government messaging so far has

been not giving people a sense of the way out of this what we're living with in the moment is a sort of indefinite state where people have no idea when they're going to get back to that level of uncertainty is killing british business and it stands to do a lot more damage in the virus itself. all prices have rallied slightly after a glimmer of optimism the global feud over production prices tank because demand is dried up over the coronavirus but behind the scenes too there's also been a rash of cutting world supplies to deal with a glut of got more motherly or from correspondents ask you taylor. the oil sucked it was already in a precarious situation and that's only been wason by the spread of covert 19 but it seems that some leaders are trying to mitigate the fool out so on friday in a meeting with the country's top oil executives russian president vladimir putin suggested that he be ready to cut oil production in a bid to try and revive price collapse we currently are seeing an $18.00 yet low

price should russia considers it necessary to join forces we were not initiators of the consolation of the opec plus deal we are ready for agreements with partners and we are ready for interaction with the united states on this issue i think it is necessary to join efforts to balance the market and reduce production as a result of these coordinated efforts and actions he also did specifically emphasize that the have to be a joint coordinated effort not a case where one or 2 countries make some sort of compromise and the others just sit back and really reap the rewards. just when we are in close contact with our partners in saudi arabia recently i had a conversation with the united states president we all are concerned about the developing situation everyone is interested in joint and i would like to emphasize coordinated actions for ensuring long term market stability. a couple of weeks ago an impasse started between the wild top oil producing nations and not exactly was

over slashing production so that saw prices plunge not was only wason when saudi arabia decided to essentially just open its tops and flood the market and that really caused chaos that's how we got to this moment but luckily it seems that the market is already responding quite well to this latest initiative from russia we saw in fact a record breaking percentage climb and oil prices so you stabilize ation measures will likely be the prime rate topic. top of the agenda at the opec plus meeting and actually we're getting reports that the majority of opec members do actually support cutting down on production the u.s. as the top producer also want to see this as she settled very quickly especially that unfortunately it's found itself in the terrible position of being a country in terms of the coronavirus pandemic. could tell of this sounds like a pretty heated meeting on monday as well because more in riyadh no blame brush for

the failure to agree on production cuts so the officials also refuted claims of intentionally trying to squeeze producers e.s.p. in america earlier i discussed who might be responsible with an economist and political commentator and also the chief executive of foreign exchange brokerage. so we are a very desperate and they are almost bankrupt they have to pray and say they have a bomb deficit they are running the government has so many expenses and they have not enough enough so they had to increase our production to sell it at any price how do some playing a lot of blame for this mess definitely and only russia at the minute the only one who is wrong and who is supplying and tries to get everybody back to the table and makes good not only good suggestions even willing to cut their own production even though they need the money so i can say with confidence but this is really need a ph d. for that when saudi arabia. increases its production in order

to let's say calm rational all the others and. granted the kind. of discount well that goes without saying it gets a lot of pressure on the on the on the project he's already losing money they are kept on. life subsistence with probably with some subsidizing their suffering a lot and most probably will have to cut. on you know on the expenses they're doing that means also impacting even more on the same climate side. maybe not the bankruptcy situation but if it holds it could become quite. but a tough one for this so that opec meeting monday spring to spread the south's new maybe when the thing says next week will keep you posted right this is coming from the break and i'll ask you to national keeping your health and your bank details

on earth in our quarantine conditions this is an easy way to spend time in the conditions during the preparation for a space flight and during the flight itself we are put in a much more extreme situation compared to what we have to experience in a training capsule in which we are completely isolated from any information for 5 days what we are experiencing now can be called a holiday. isolation in space isolation in the workplace not in the circle of family and friends this is isolation in a state of a fairly high risk with an unfavorable external environment and the timing of vice elation is definitely different from what we have now on earth so of course space is a tougher environment. the most important treatment for depression and despondency is to occupy yourself with something after all you can occupy yourself not only with homework but also with more pleasant things you communicate with your family and friends i communicate
