the a new toby brain in southern africa, sparks cable panic, something countries to shut down and travel with the region. the variance is already splitting globally with the u. k. the latest nation to confirm cases. the developers need be preparing to test the russian songs again for your patience will also hear from the hungarian foreign minister about his own country's seem policy on the need to put lives above politics. there are few, many countries considering the issue, go back to the nation as if it had a political diligence. it's about the lives of the people to protest isn't killed and almost 20 injured by the french military in asia, according to the country's government. a thought to a french military calling boy runs into a violent log scale demonstration on ruth tamale.

ah, very welcome. you're watching all the international with mean top story. the israel will close his board if you all foreigners starting from monday as well, for the discovery of what's being described as a highly infectious new covey strain which was 1st detected in southern africa. this comes as the u. k. the u. s. canada joins the e. u in whole thing, fly from the 6 southern african nations and johannesburg, the new restrictions of left the passengers scrambling to get out. coupled with country bonding. flights. airlines have cancelled departure from south africa to the u. k. ahead of the approaching deadline, the flight to some other western nations including the west saw continuing until monday, pul, asleep has gauge the opinions in south africa's main international airport. now

let's try to going back to sign on. this is close everything defamation. so this time these people know very good calling to the sign. honda said no on site from cutting off every plane coming from 1000 i freak out with immediate immediate effect and then we checked on the front and the flight wasn't consult. we should have been back to paris yesterday evening and to the west can. so i'm not kidding. 10 minutes before to get in the plane. we met a young girl, you know, she was 20 and she was promoted from a tray and she was crying. she didn't know where to go, you know? and she had nobody to help her chaos and confusion following the discovery of a new coven variant called emmy crohn. at his turn, the world upside down. people are rushing to the a port in a pace for the attempt to get on any remaining flight. and in fact,

the queue of people are lining up in front of a close the ticket sales counter. they're hoping it will open and there might be a few things that they can still get on menu button, because the united kingdom was the 1st to read list 6, southern african countries. and in that any travelers coming from them would have to go into calling team for 10 days at a government facility. since then the united states, canada and the european union and other major destination have followed the prices for flights and rapid pci taste. skyrocketing, kim kerr, who is the founder and need volunteer of community circle home, south africa ads for the last year. been hoping, traveling in an south africa, navigate the regulation. she's been inundated with calls apart from people running out of money. yeah. funds that they had that they had thought that was going to cost them to be medical aids usually only cover you for a certain amount of time abroad. travel, medical cover only covers you

a certain amount of time that's going to run out. people have to get back to jobs. schools are going to open soon, and the people trying to get their children home. the sense of loss is going to be felt because people are feeling like they are really trapped. and they're becoming more and more frustrated and see more and more tis what i'm hoping is that governments can put measures in place that not just citizens, but family of citizens. if you can show just show proof of some ty to that country, that those people will be allowed entry. even if it means extra p c r testing. or it means a little bit of quarantine with retesting in that country. but people have to understand that these a human beings, these are people who have got a need to travel, not a one. it is not clear where the army convent 1st emerged. scientists from south africa were the 1st to alert the world health organization. the south african

government has criticized international community for rushing to ban travel before the variance is properly 5th and is concerned about the damage the band will due to both travel and business. for now, the face of people stranded at this april is unclear, as well, struggled to deal with the new 300 foot south africa. meanwhile, concerns amounting in europe, the u. k. germany and italy are the latest to find on the kron variance, variance infections, and check and touch well thought he's all rolling out the some coded positive passengers who have arrived from southern african countries might be infected with the new strain r t show the defense. he has more on europe response to the situation. will this super mutant strain of covey it has been described as being more transmissible than delta? and that has really ramped up fears. it's been reported that it's already been found on the european continent in belgium. that is from a sample that was taken from

a young woman who said to have not been anywhere near the south of the african continent. she had indeed been to egypt and to turkey. and it's also said that she was unvaccinated. e mclaughlin. we have been confirmed case of this variant is some one who came from abroad. this person was tested on november 22nd. he was not vaccinated and had no prior infection. so this case has been observed and confirmed . but i want to repeat that it is a suspicious fair, and we don't know if it's a very dangerous one. as a result of this new countries on out scrambling to close their air space to a number of countries in the south of africa. that's because the super mutant strain has been found in several countries there, but it could already be too late, as that case in belgium shows. now, not much is known about this particular mutation, but experts are really sounding the alarm over what they say,

the potential properties of it could be. and it's the fact that it's such a heavy mutation. just give you an example. experts in the u. k. have described this as being so mutated that it is barely recognizable when it compared to the original strain of cove at 19. and as a result of that, we have seen devastation across the world over the last 18 months or so. the european commission president is urging other countries to take heed and to also close their space. the european commission has today proposed to member states to activate the emergency brake on travel from countries and southern african and other countries affected. to limit the spread of the new variant. now the u. k was one of the countries that 1st decided to put that ban in place of flights coming at to and from those 6 countries in africa are. but it has said that that list could

be expanded in the next few days with more more countries being put back on the red . less than that could cause so many fears that yet again, travel plans as we head into the holy sea season will be thwarted just as they were back in 2020. now this also comes at a time when there is a 5th wave of the pandemic hitting the european continent so much so that countries are putting new restrictions back in place. we've already seen partial locked downs and la stands in some countries like in austria. and in the netherlands, and even here in france earlier this week, the french health minister saying that from the middle of january, people will have to have a 3rd jab for cove at 19 of vaccine. if they don't, then their health passed to allow them access to every day. things like cafes and restaurants will no longer be valid. but the real concern here is if those

experts are right that this mutation is so far removed from the original covert. 19 variant will the vaccines that of already been creative be enough? will the even be effective? or as many fear will they just be totally ineffective against this strain? if that's the case, it's going to leave the politicians scratching their heads again. and scientists having to go back to the drawing board. but the question many of us are now asking when will this and staying with covert germany, is continuing to see a surgeon infections with their new daily record of 76000 cases. and a situations been compounded by the amik wrong variance, according to a government minister, one likely case has already been detected within its borders. several nutritious super go of amec. ron were found last night and a traveler from south africa. so there is a high level of suspicion and the person has been isolated at home. we're still

waiting for the complete sequencing. cobit hospitals in germany, already overwhelmed with the air force being called in to help transfer coby patients so far to military jets have been set aside to assist. we spoke to a disease specialist that he believes the new strain means all options are on the table. when you buy this new varian spreads quickly and the vaccines we have now stopped working with them worried about situation. people who already are not clay, it may not be protected, but we have to wait and see if that worst case scenario becomes the case. maybe we'll be lucky on the vaccines will also work against this mutation at the moment. we don't know enough about it, there isn't a p c r test for yet, but we have to be cautious. a sort of the virus is changing all the time. and several mutations have occurred. viruses multiplying a few 1000 times a day. errors occur in the replication and a new virus emerges. it's not unusual and going up every day. so there's still

plenty of uncertainty over the micron variance and whether the public is warranted on the website. we've got an explain or taking you through everything from slide printing to the stock market sell off. you can head to r t dot com for that. i can produce is all scrambling to determine if there drugs will work against the mcclung variance in russia. the institute behind the sputnik ve job says testing will start as soon as the obtain a sample of the new strain south africa sees it will make samples available to other nations. and in hungary, studies found the sputnik v office high efficacy against the old earlier cove at variance. researches say it's more successful, preventing hospitalization, and death than any other vaccine. budapest is now hoping local production of sputnik fee will start next year. although the drug is still awaiting approval from the e u regulator, but gary and foreign minister pizza c auto sat down with autism on a boy coat to speak about the need to de politicize the issue. i

really don't find the verse to describe how i feel about the fact that there are still many countries considering the issues of vaccination as if it had a political or, or ideological nature. you know, it's about the lives of the people who knew the lives of the people. what is it for them as far as the political smell of political and ideological debate, i'm very frustrated about that. to be honest. and i tell you why europe on the regulation speaks very clearly about hallway vaccine, can be approved on the $33.00 of the 2 ways. first, by the european madison agency, which is a normal, let's say, business of usual way of approving a vacuum. but a european renovation says that in case of the state of emergency, this one, the national regulators, are allowed to approve of axioms. also on a temporary basis before we started to use both splitting because you know,

far from china, the national regulator of ours has approved the use of both. which means that the use of scrutiny in hungary is being based on a european regulation. and that's why to be honest, we don't understand why it is not being respected by the by the other member states . whenever i talk to western european colleagues on my vest or european colleagues of mine between for ice, they always tell me that they know that the russian fire to fick performance can be spoken about in very highly. and i said, look, it 1st the best, of course it works well. hungary and experts have approve that. and regardless of the fact that privately, they all say that when it goes to public, they act totally differently. i have the luxury to be in this position for more than 7 years now. so i clearly remember who said was 56 years ago. and i remember the way we were really, really attacked. and we were considering very,

very hostile way, very rude expressions were used on us, and those who treated us in a very rude way. they are now giving, basically a standing ovation to those who act similarly as we acted back in 2015. what do you think has changed in europe on that issue over the last 5 years? you know, i think there's a big hypocrisy. there might be some comments which, which sound to be different compared to what has been said since 2015 by the essence. by the essence of the european migration policy remained unchanged unfortunately. and if you look at the document or the statement or the founding document of the, of the new german government coalition, you will see that it's extremely pro migration extremely to protest 5 being killed in almost 20 injured by the french army anesha, according to the african countries,

interior ministry. as off the military convoy on route to molly, was blocked by a large scale with demonstration that turned violence. the convoy of the french volcano, force, escorted by the national gent armory, was blocked by very violent protesters in terror. in the talbert region. where it had spent the night in its attempt to break free use force leading to the death of 2 people and 18 wounded. well, we have it from official accounts authorities in nyja, which say that after the french convoy had passed from burkina faso into niger about 30 kilometers in a huge crowd about a 1000 demonstrators tried to stop the convoy this this. busy french conway, french, a presence in the area, has been unpopular with many people, with some at felicity's. they believe all manner of stories about french troops and their relations with various rebel groups in the area. but they tried to stop this

. convoy and french troops reportedly began firing what they describe as warning shots, as well as tier gas. it is unclear how wounding shots could have injured 18 people killed 2, but apparently french troops as well as an is jerry and troops began firing a warning shots. again, as they say at these crowds details the still somewhat scarce. we expect to find out more, but the convoy has moved on off to this incident again, a very ill fated convoy because it landed in the ivory coast to support the french operation in the area it is seen snaked its way up towards the north, towards molly and on the way it has said capital matter of incidents and broken, facile level multiple attempts, but by crowds in the thousands to stop these convert voskus void made up of more than a 1000 vehicles. and then also they had the. busy flood warning shots as well as

tier gas in an effort to disperse the crowds. also birth people injured. as we've heard. busy but again, this tom boy is now on its way through niger, intimately, where french bases and french troops stationed thousands of them. in this decade long flight, the fonts was waved against terrorists. it cooled them, as well as religious extremists. in the region. we have all the french defense ministry to comments on the incidents, and we'll let you know what they say. well, only a french army spokesperson said the soldiers find warning shots off the violence group trying to take over the convoy. trucks of russian court has reminded 5 suspects and cause to be for a period of 2 months following 1st a deadly coal mine blast the men 3 manages and to inspect as have been charged with violating safety protocols, all have denied wrong doing, leading to the underground me saying explosion in the camera of

a region which claimed the lives of 51 people. the head of the mind section where the bloss couldn't see had received no prior complaints from stopped. but the thought was early a revised downwards after a rescue who had been presumed dead managed to get out of the mine. his survivor with described as a miracle by the emergency services chief working at the side. local mine as though have lost hope of finding any more survivors were perfectly front room for the last chance to get out was with the rescuer. good survived. don't wait for the rest. got going as good sir. nobody could have survived as long as this, especially because oxygen is now gradually being replaced by me thing. i have no idea how one man managed to survive. how can one predict such a blast? there's no mining with our gas. only more ventilation and more checks will help or yeah, the re before no cold, no money. every one is trying to fulfill the plan and earn something if the ventilation services are responsible for checking the guest levels in the mines. 18

years ago when i witnessed the mind, thus the shaft was poorly ventilated. a specialist has to come and check all that needs to be checked, but that time worked started straight away. meanwhile, the bodies of 5 dead miners have been retrieved from under the rubble. the rescue operation resumed also being halted due to phase of further explosions. the camera of a governor says caution is the priority mirror and the concert store. we desperately want to get everyone out on the surface. we are doing all we can, but without risking the lives of our rescuers. we have no right to have more men dead. when the 1st group of rescuers rushed into the mind right after the blast it was justified. now it's not. so everything we do must be 1st of all safe autumn. the miners job is one of the most dangerous in the world. but if a rescuer has to go in, the danger is multiplied earlier while rescue as we are unable to access the mind.

desperate families were left waiting for news at the entrance, holding on to any glimmer of hope you have met yet you. my son is down there in the mine. as his mother, i feel that he is alive without some hope. when one man was found alive, he see if that man spent a day down there and survived. it means it's possible to survive. but we are tall. people die in 2 or 3 hours due to lack of air. miners are under their rabble. they are already counted his dad just like that man has survived. well, it's been 3 days since the explosion here at the list version or coal mine in canada and efforts are still going on throughout the day to stabilize the situation in the mine. now at this point, nitrogen has been injected into the mine to neutralize the build up of methane gas . but that means that virtually at this point, there's no chance that anybody who is still trapped down to air have survived. now a criminal investigation into this tragedy has already ongoing. 5 people have been

detained. that saw the head of the mining company, his deputy, and the person in charge of the mine itself. now also there were 2 safety inspectors who were detained on suspicion of faking a safety inspection in this exact mine just a week before this horrific tragedy. now the mine deputies, they denied the charges made against them. and also, one of the inspectors also says that he did not do anything wrong. however, all 5 of these people have been detained for 2 months of pending the investigation as it continues to find out what was wrong with mine and what led up to this situation. and in fact, it's been told, we've seen reports that there were a lot of known issues in this mine and that miners knew about them and reported them to the higher ups. here's what one of the relatives of the miners has said on the matter. one rosco's, honestly, i remember my brother in law telling me about a methane program in the mine, and the instances of a gas builder. anton told me that when the level of methane went off the scale and

all work ground to a halt. but sometimes despite this, there was a forbidden level of methane, and even though it wasn't that high, the mine is still at work. they even had to resort to various methods to decrease the level indicators in order to get work done. he occasionally let his former head know about the situation. he wondered how he could work in such circumstances. the minds management was aware of what was going on. well, now the investigative committee has said that it will do us at most to get to the bottom of this to find out who could have been responsible for this blatant violation of safety procedures, honor hazardous production facility. and this is what they have said in their statement, because it is not bundled, it is commonly known that tragedies of a similar nature have occurred in mines in the camera of a region and in other regions to the cost of these mistakes is invariably people's lives. the investigative committee intends to look into the circumstances of the

situation and address the deeper causes that lead to serious consequences and provoked the tragedy listening. right now there are still many grieving relatives who have been devastated by this tragedy and the demand answers and hopefully with the criminal investigation going on. as soon they could receive them. and instagram influence their from to nicea has been slammed off the posting content of was allegedly her secret. crossing to italy on a boat with migrants ah ah. during a clandestine crossing on an irregular boat to museum influence publishes instagram stories and photos. joyful and smiling. i leave the comments to you. we cannot allow easily its laws in its borders to be marked in this way. according

to italian press, the social media creator has arrived to the island of lamb, producer. she reportedly se severe social conditions. it's uneasy forced her to seek asylum in italy and describe the conditions on the boat heading to europe is terrible. meanwhile, italian conservative politician, ego golardo slammed the passenger over the voyage. yeah, more my yeah. love it. real shape. one people are arriving in italy who do not need to come with people who are not hungry or coming. they're coming to us to italy because they want a better life. but in fact, they're not bad off economically, like this. unity in blogger. those who are really poor remained in africa and doug dying of hunger. it is in africa that we should try to help them and not via these n g o z and via what amounts to illegal immigration. europe must help us to stop these vanity. they arrive in sicily, too many migrants arrive in europe is not helping us. a big show is made out of these crossings. in addition and italy,

there are many people who think they are being good and say they want to welcome michael. but in reality, they do not realize how many difficulties there are for italian and for us decisions who are experiencing a really difficult here in italy as one of a number of european countries experiencing a surgeon asylum claims. u. k. from relations took a new turn over the worst off the french president, monument, chronic use bar stones, and have failures in finding a solution to the cross channel migrant crisis. and the batteries, poland border remains tens, pointing the bell russian leda to visit one of the migrant centers. the maryland produces a europe ought to have a rethink on migration. mostly the solution is easy. europe cannot delegate the task of welcoming migrants to certain states. europe must assume its responsibilities more should be done, but the question is, what does you not want to tackle the issue of migration? there is no strategy to keep migrants away. it doesn't exist is because my goods would bypass the obstacle and was still come to italy, even pussy,

it was to control borders would be useless. there are laws and documents that should be respected and that europe itself does not respect. there is no end to all this. the situation is always the same, nothing has changed. here in lamp induced, there are no places to welcome every one. we have more than 300 and aged children who we do not know where to send our reception, sensory suffering. there are too many people. the politicians are not thinking about it right now. we are collapsing, we can't go on like this from the you. we have received only indifference and from the italian government also indifference. thanks for choosing arte international. we're back in the top of the hour with the latest headlines. we'll see you then. mm . ah ah, i saw a message from an unknown account because it had a self who with my passport as his profile picture, i saw pictures of my documents,

ill say also send a credit contract. or if i had just 3 days comply with their demands. if the, if i didn't send money, i late sent up an online hate campaign for guy. i was supposed to be a very dangerous man. to join me every 1st day on the alex simon. sure. but i'll be speaking to guess in the world of politics, sport, business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. mm . oh, postal service delivers a $155000000000.00 pieces of mail every year. approximately 40 percent of the world's mail right now the us postal service is in the fight of its life. and that is reduction bad, financial shape. now facing default, the postal service is a cash cow, and there was a way to pull money out of the postal service to put into the federal budget. there

was a mandate that you're bringing $100000.00, new revenue every month. the nature of privatization in the us postal service is very much hidden from public view. it's privatization from the inside out. why that's a big business in money. it's not about the public and given them the service that the design is not about quality. train workers, it's about with, with a blog i talked on which there spoke with your pin and

a session was to resource from for your tomorrow. even though with the push to pull, she was stuck storm your produce law, you have the law. i mean we could do you smoke with doctor green. you said he a thumbs up on the bus up, but she was here seal if you're credential for. so when you redeem on that i've been in your book with

correct. yes. who remish told it that the option finished rebellion? stella rose 3rd, not listening to the finished corner store. hercules were petitions with bermuda. them somewhere in progress. familiar with them. you talk with them, if in the show of nobody you called a ship to lift that down for sure. i went there in the 1st one was the spiritual from one of that before, that's our copy of the plan. i don't ship a sheet washing with because it's a .
