said that they would take an action. absolutely keep the registering and keep the slot machines doing. this is a money machine is a huge cash register that is ran by people who don't care about people's lives being lost. the moscow sets a grim record that bailey number of cobra cases source to an old time apply the cities man as it else, the raft of new measures. meanwhile, the u. s. present of both claimed victory and a legal battle over vaccine supply delays. the court ordered the pharmaceutical joy to deliver 15000000 more doses by the end of september. and devastating floods leave at least one person dead and 8 injured in southern rushes, crimea problems assaulted her rental raymond, whither to breach the bank for districts of declared a state of emergency. ah,
10:01 pm
just going to father, i'm here in moscow. thanks for joining us for our international. i'm daniel who can, whether you are today local for the program. most code has registered a daily record in new coban infections with more than 9000 cases in the last 24 hours. you restrictions and now being brought in, including limiting non emergency medical care for unvaccinated patients, easy lip a trunk of has the latest less than 2 weeks ago. the numbers in moscow were plus $2900.00 cases. and there you have it this friday, and new sad record of more than plus $9000.00 in a whole country like mexico for example. this figure is 2 times smaller. so what is going on? it looks like the new delta varian which are recreate with an india is taking its
10:02 pm
toll on the russian capital. according to the mayor of moscow, almost 90 percent of the new infections in the city are the new delta variance. and because also we're going to see them, the delta strain spreads foster, and the worst thing about it is that the person needs strong immunity twice as many anti bodies to resistance compared to the original hand viruses. so essentially we're going through the same thing again, but with more severe consequences, the government has come to the understanding that the pace of the vaccination has been very though and now they are rushing to change that. now here's one of the ground breaking decisions, introduced by the medical authorities in the washing capital. in moscow, free non essential care in the hospitals will only be provided for those who have been vaccinated. everyone will still get the emergency treatment if it's required.
10:03 pm
if you are a patient with cancer or with blood diseases, you will still get all the necessary treatment. but in other cases for non essential care, like i said, a jab will be required. patients have a weekend immune system for them could be 19, is especially dangerous. it is impossible to avoid all contact with them or to isolate them. all. those who can have the jap for special reasons will still be admitted to hospital and emergency medical care will be provided with the exception to everybody regardless of vaccination status. i campaign in the city to promote booster jabs will also begin in the near future. at a couple of days ago, the moscow's mayor office announced mandatory vaccination for 60 percent of the staff in the service sector. so it looks like the russian capital is bracing itself for nothing less but a real vaccination boom. when the bladder approved his press secretary dmitri
10:04 pm
pascal was asked about what the kremlin makes of the new spikes and the measures. here is what the spokesperson replied. don't get even worse, and a situation is due to 3 things, the absolute nihilism, that is people failure to comply with restrictions hello vaccination rate, and the slight nature of the virus. in the meantime, the existing anti cobit measures in the russian capital have been extended till the end of june name leave the closure of bars, restaurants, and clubs during the night. and also a 3rd of staff members being required to work from home. in addition to that, the moscow mayor's office has also bad mass gatherings of over 1000 people. besides this dance floors and football fans owns will also have to be shut down for now. once again, i'd like to point out that so far, these are the measures that have been announced for their washing capital. this isn't on a federal level just yet, but we have received
10:05 pm
a warning from the authorities that all. busy of this could be extended to other regions of russia if that is required. so this is a possibility in the near future as well. the court in brussels has ordered the british company astrazeneca to live a 50000000 more doses of its coven vaccine to the e. u. by the end of september, that rolling follows a long running legal battle over supply delays and both sides claiming victory. paris face correspondence shot the key. dig deeper into the issue. both sides claiming victory in this court case over whether or not astrazeneca broke its contract to deliver supplies of cobra. 1900, that's at least would you repeat the commission alleged to and it's lewis went to court a few weeks ago. it was demanding in cool that astrazeneca be forced to supply some extra deuces. meaning you have to bring a 120000000 doses of 900 jobs to the european union by the end of
10:06 pm
june. so in the next 2 weeks, but the bell to court rejected that and set out a completely different time table for astrazeneca. the judge also ruled that the european union european commission didn't have the exclusive right. it didn't have the priority to any of the astrazeneca jobs that were manufactured either here also in the u. k, which is also something that the commission lawyers had claimed. and additionally, the court recognized that astrazeneca had had problems with its manufacturing processes. that's what i presented because lawyers had said the reason for this delay, therefore, astrazeneca see this being a win astrazeneca has fully comply with its agreement with the european commission . and we will continue to focus on the urgent task supplying an effective vaccine which we are delivering at no profits to help protect people in europe and around
10:07 pm
the world from the deadliest pandemic in a generation. well, the european commission is also crying that it had a victory in court by this ruling, by the belgian judge is well, why? well, that's because of the court outlining this new time table for extra deliveries of the job to come here to the european union. basically what the court said is that by the end of september, astrazeneca supply an additional $50000000.00 doses to the book. and if it doesn't, it will receive a fine of around 10, you dose that is delayed, but not 10 years per day. a delay, which is what the european commissions lewis had actually asked for. but this ruling was welcomed by lavonne delaine the commission precedent. this decision confirmed the position of the commission astrazeneca did not live up to the commitment made in the contract. it has get to see that an independent judge
10:08 pm
consensus. this shows that our european vaccination campaign not only delivers for our citizens day by day. it also demonstrates that it was founded on a sound legal basis. but this is a pretty hollow victory if it is a victory in any sense because european commission and perhaps it's just trying to save face by saying that, why? well, the deadline that's been set by the court, which is the end of september, is a deadline. the astrazeneca said it was looking at working towards any way towards the end of this year, delivering all of the doses that it was supposed to. and, and rebuttal of the idea that the european commission is wanting court today, after seneca has said that it's going to smash that deadline set by the court anyway. and many will be perhaps wondering, given the circumstances surrounding astrazeneca how it's been seen hearing you report for the last few months why this case even went to court. and i say that
10:09 pm
because across the european union, many countries have put severe restrictions on who can have astrazeneca and lots of countries. it's only age groups over a certain age. and in some countries it has been rejected from use all together. and that's because of those links that we keep hearing about with very rare but fee to blood clots. and also in the last few days, we heard from the head to the cook with 900 task force. this is food, european medicine agency, which is the use of the truck regulator when he was aust, whether the idea of the astro could should just be entirely ditch now. as a job. he said, yes, it should, begging the question why this went to court in the 1st place with the voters of approved the new and he terrell or in referendum. it allows police to keep tabs on people and children as young as 12, without a court order. as concern about the new law, un special repertoire on torture,
10:10 pm
nills meltzer has cool it on professional, inefficient and dangerous. last year, experts appointed by the un human rights council. the legislation sets a dangerous precedent. while i'm in santa rational said it's open a new era of general life vision is senior correspondent, world against the reporting from switzerland, the 3 jews, the balance of the tax and stabbings in recent years have rattled society. one thing led to another in switzerland is now home to the most draconian count tara laws. in europe. it was the will of the people. that's the thing with suisse direct democracy, new middle met. i've people want to give police the state uncheck powers, they can and they did 57 percent voted in a referendum for this. the question is that people fully understand what they will voting for. thank you. notice i think
10:11 pm
a lot of people are not aware how dangerous the slot is, and as it is cutting into the freedom of all activists in this country. and now you can be imprisoned when i put under house arrest or put under suspicion of terrorism without a court order. and i think the people were not sufficiently aware before the referendum . police can now monitor those as young as 12 years old. limit their movements forced them to take part in interviews, which means interrogate them for any reason that they deem good enough. i will be able to put suspect as young as 15 and the house for months and months and rights groups have been ringing, alarm bells about this. let me sit said the things are national. this law is extremely problematic because winter and iraq generalized suspicion. any person can be targeted by this definition of terrorist activity. a definition does not correspond to that providers and the criminal code and does not correspond to
10:12 pm
international standards, which always includes an element of violence. the crux of the matter is that these new laws, apart from the ethical complications of going off the 12 year olds, that preventative by design. and preventative is a very controversial thing. he ordinarily, if you commit the crime, for example, you get punished right. while preventative means you're stopped before you can commit the crop before it's, it's a hobb before you do something you might regret. and the sweets is still very much divided over this. i voted against it. of course, what this may give authority is it gives them ground to take measures against citizens before a judge has ordered those measures, a voltage in favor to protect the population. exactly. i think it's necessary unfortunately, because some people in class don't have exactly the same manner of thinking.
10:13 pm
respectfully, i'm so one. so terrorist and can be everywhere it's it's really the terrorists come from government. never, never terrors come from every but nobody. no, no, no. on the government id vote for that. i know i was not very sure, but i did the vote for voted against because of civil liberties restrictions which go pretty far under that low. and that's the thing. make an all, all of us become prospect so wide and vague is the definition of terrorist activity . if you google something that someone might construe as dangerous view cracked, or a bad joke. if your friends fall in the law enforcement radar, you can become suspect. i'm the freedom loving us with, for me, i mean it's a shame. it's an absolute shame that we have that we have to vote for such
10:14 pm
a law. and it's even the big shame is that the people, except that it, everyone that is, that don't agrees with you know, the strategy from our federal counsel for example. but what is coming that the basic can lock away everyone. so i mean, it's even hard. it under patrick back, i think it will be use most likely against the climate activists. but i think the much bigger problem that i see because the waste except that, that kind of actually an act is that a lot of the countries might take it over and say, you know, switzerland period as well. so we can do it also over here in saudi arabia, wherever this is, this is a terrible sign for the rest of the world. and so i'm very, very much shame to be with, oh, some people are planning to fight that. but chances are great at the end of the day . so with authorities and monsters lay care for their people. the question is, the future, how future rule is we'll,
10:15 pm
we'll this law and that's what worries people delta districts in the russian province of crimea has declared a state of emergency. i mean, severe flooding which was left at least one person dead and 8 others injured. hundreds have been evacuated from the city, sent her off to rent shall reign of course the rivers to bus the bank. the area surrounding the local power station has been inundated. there are fears of a lot q black up one local posted this video on social media. as you can see there, i've been struggling to move through 4th flooding, muddy water. the also ministration is asked, the russian black sea fleet, stationed nearby to provide emergency help. water supplies in the district have also been switched off. authorities are selling people to stock up on bottled drinking water. heard from a reporter based in the city. and then for the situation has no stabilized. at least the rain has stopped before that it rained for 11 hour straight. so the city
10:16 pm
center is under water. public transport has been paralyzed. overall, more than a 1000 people are involved in the rescue operation. emergency crews are working alongside residents to help people as much as they can to more reverse breach their banks today. and we haven't stopped the flow yet. over the head of the administration has been over seeing the operation of the street to the city since early morning. we met her when we got here, she updated us and the situation she has everything under her personal control started for the city. we can now say for certain that the weather has come down, but just yesterday you could only cross the road here if your 2 meters high or in a special vehicle. there were turned into a real river with cars forge and around the military actually very professionally. they've provided all necessary aid. i sold the emergency services rescued to families who are trapped inside their homes by the floods and other locals to help them to also provide moral support. the braver once jumped in the water to get
10:17 pm
people out. well, let us see one picture unfolding in other parts of crimea, a total of 4 district seminar declared states of emergency. the latest being philadelphia and kiera, where there's been extensive flood damage. the city of cuts is one of the worst effects that there's also struck there. on wednesday nights when hundreds of residential buildings were flooded, street turned to rivers and cars, but mostly submerged. more than a 1000 residence of fled the area of saying a temporary shelter itself. official and crimea visited the city to see the rescue operation. let's video from gut, how can viral on line 3 people can be seen swimming behind the boat, which was carrying the head of a crummy and administration official says they will rescue is helping vessels move through the flooded streets. they will be given face awards for their work
10:18 pm
is very war. planes have pounded garza for the past 2 nights, less than a month into a fragile feast, while with a mass. israel says the res response to infinity re balloons. lot from golf. clothing fire on is ready for me and according to the idea for several how much targets were hits with no casualties, reported on either side on a city in groups thought launching those balloons earlier in the week. that was in response to a march by jewish nationalists through our neighborhoods in jerusalem. meanwhile, known palestinian protest. this have been injured and clashes with israeli police in the city about a 1000 people gathered on temple mouth salt a friday, pres some held rocks at security officers, as they tried to clear the area least responded with rubber bullets on grenades. well, this latest confrontation follows last month, 11 day more between israel and garza based melissa more than 270 people died in that conflict. the majority of the palestinian side we spoke to is really defense
10:19 pm
and political commentator oran, who thinks that the new is really prime minister will seek to take a tough assault on her math. bennett elia re needs career vowed to dismantle, come in gaza. he's not going to do it. the cost of occupation for res row will be too high. but day to day and night tonight, he's probably going to try and retaliate for even the smallest publication, such as an inferior balloon. we changed, of course, quite a nuisance. he does the farmer's fields along the boulder, but no casualties have been revolted, nevertheless, benefits and he's a cabinet colleagues, are not going to wait for any rocket attack and casual piece before the retail. so the signals are going back and forth across the border. hopefully there will be
10:20 pm
some sort of political follow up to the cease fire because justice sees fire never holds. the pentagon is warning that terrorist groups and i've got a son, could expand their reach off to the us, pull out and pose an international threat. the issue was raised in a senate hearing, i would you rate the, the likelihood of international terrorist organizations like al qaeda and isis regenerating inside of afghanistan and presenting a threat to our homeland, our allies. i would associate as medium. i would also say center that, that it would take possibly 2 years for them to develop that capability. fair enough, gentlemen, i, i concur with that and i think that if certain other things happen, if there was a collapse of the government or dissociate disillusion of the african security
10:21 pm
forces, that risk would obviously increase. but right now, i'd say medium in a about 2 years or so. while ahead of the pull out there are already signing the us back. staff can government is losing control of the country. the televisions reportedly captured at least $27.00 districts since the beginning of last month, the militant group was about to take the entire country and establish on his luck. emerett of i've got a son. about april president joe bought in place to remove all of us troops by september 11th. that was pushed back from may 1st. the earlier deadline negotiated by donald trump. taliban u. s. military leaders, though, have repeatedly cautioned against any kind of deadline, saying the drawdown should be based on the security situation on the ground rather than a specific date. and he worked with brian becker. i think some senior figures in the u. s. are looking for a pretext to stay and i've got to tell we see here is a tug of war between those who are insisting that the u. s. they for ever an afghan is then and those who feel that the war is not winnable,
10:22 pm
it's drain. it's not going to be. it's not going to alter the outcome. and they also make a differentiation between the taliban and should the television become the new government? yes, it would be the same kind of government, maybe with some slight variation from the way it was before september 11. but i think it's important not to complete that with isis or isis is in afghanistan because of the us invasion of afghanistan. there was no isis prior to 2001, and all kite is really weaken for so obviously the military again. yes, there might be a need to continue u. s. military presence. yes, there's a we m say a medium warning that i or i can come back. but again, i think there's a tug of war here between those who want to have wherever war in afghanistan and those who say, look, it's time to end the war. the maids of
10:23 pm
a texas prison are being relocated to make room for migrant lesandra spike and crimes committed by people illegally crossing into the us from mexico. the texas governor has justified the decision by saying the states, i thought whole, the rule of law by its own means. he reiterated his claim that the barton administration is ignoring the ongoing you want to tear in crisis at the border on is caleb morphin report branches destroyed threats to resonance. lots of chaos, texas borders sheriffs say in the 30 years they've been guarding the border. they have not seen anything like it. crimes related to illegal border crossings by undocumented workers are now on the rise. i've never seen it quite like this. we have always had a fence. got here. fence got there because they're hauling dill or small kids or something. but we've never seen the intentional big 4 by 4 holes in the fans or now and 10 foot section just can't completely out. that's really starting to bother me
10:24 pm
. it's a mess. that's what it is. nobody seems to care about is down here. we're 6065 miles away from the border and they say that everything's okay. no, it's not. ok. conservatives are voicing outrage that amid the situation. restrictions are being loosened and not tightened. trump era. 2 restrictions on asylum seekers intended to curb gangs and domestic violence have just been lifted. the numbers are big in may. 180000 people were apprehended at the border. the biggest monthly total since april of 2000 border states are now pleading for help. florida is sending officers to arizona and texas to help out texas is now putting $250000000.00 of their own state budget into building a border wall. busy of their own, the texas governor blames joe biden for dropping the ball. texas is going to do with the by the ministration is refusing to do. we will be using every tool available to us under the law. and we will ensure that we build a wall,
10:25 pm
arrest people, and make texas safe. many border state residents feel like the white house just doesn't care. it's been over 85 days, but vice president comma le harris has still not visited the border. i write to invite you to the us to the board to observe the ongoing humanitarian crisis and share the perspective of americans who live the. i encourage you to join me and other members of congress. while we visits with the people in the ground who deal with these issues every day house democrats were able to block a bill put forward by republicans that would have actually prevented comma la harris from taking any international trips until she visited the border. pri of border state residency is one of the outrage at government mismanagement. what i believe is that the democrats are playing a long game of obscure and confuse while they try to get as many illegal immigrants . i'm still going to call them back into the country as possible. well, the democrats haven't taken any action that will actually solve probably is on the
10:26 pm
border. those are actions that trump took during his administration that solved problems at the border. wonderfully well, the combination of the fence and the working with the mexican president to get the immigrants to stop before they get to the border. all that was taken care of and working very well during a trump era. counselor harris was put in charge of the border by joe biden, but she hasn't gone to visit because she doesn't want to tow a group of reporters around taking pictures and asking questions about the chaos she doesn't want to draw attention to it. she'd rather embarrass herself by talking in circles and flying off to europe and doing other things and saying that she must do those instead of going to the board. she doesn't want to go to the order because it will draw attention to how much of a failure it is in normal viewing terms. now the biden white house has certainly offered up a change in rhetoric and policy is when it comes to the us mexico border. but so far things have not really gotten better. in fact, they've gotten quite a bit worse. many are wondering when the white house will step up and offer some
10:27 pm
real solutions. caleb bobbin r t new york. so i can cope with visionaries coming up next for us views. it's the big picture, the team and all that back in half an hour. the latest to us again, i the who's
10:28 pm
we all see it and we all feeling the significant increase of inflation has many economist concern and consumers. needless to say, terrified why the sudden increase in prices is this temporary, what can be done to tame this cruelest form? of taxation and working people always be polite, never engage with an aggravated or confrontational office. don't get into any conversation to start answering questions. just ask for an attorney to survive and interrogation. you've gotta be ready. you're definitely don't want to be going to throw in a jump. so one cups, you're more likely to walk free. if you're rich and guilty, you are. if you're poor,
10:29 pm
you got 2 eyes and 2 ears and one mouth. so you should be seen in here and a whole lot more than you're saying if you don't take that advice, usually going to do it yourself before the conservative republicans near once will use against bite in the same tactics that republicans i had to see coming from democrats after sink, so they would accuse, bite him to be into a soft, indecisive, electronically agenda. not off enough to definitely they will try to sabotage some of the agreements that have been reached. geneva, ah,
10:30 pm
