and let's start with blake who is monitoring north korea from tokyo.lake, what more are you learning about the covid situation in north korea? what sort of numbers are we talking about here? >> you know, the covid crisis in north korea is getting worse by the day, since the country identified or admitted its first ever case of covid last week. and there were 400,000 new cases reported yesterday, and the outbreak started in late april and resulted in more than 1.2 million cases of the so-called fever cases, and more than 560,000 people are still being isolated with symptoms, and 50 people, so far, have died, although it's unclear if the favor cases or deaths were caused by covid-19, and the reason for that, the uncertainty -- and the reason we are calling it fever cases instead of covid, is because testing is extremely low and the vast majority of those showing symptoms in all likelihood have not been tested. only 64,000 people had been tested out of a population of more than 25 million people, and to make matters worse, experts are saying the country l

good to see you again, blake.en concerns that north korea would do this while president biden is in the region. instead kim jong un did wait until he bedeparted. what are you learning about the timing and what more do you know about the three new missile tests? >> as for the timing of today's test, experts say pyongyang always calibrates the level of provocation associated with each missile launch. and waiting until president biden was no longer in the region it's clear that the decision was that now is not the time to take tensions to a new level. also waiting gave north korea leader the spotlight all to himself rather than sharing the air waves with the other headlines being made during the president's trip to asia. and yesterday's quad summit the four leaders from japan, australia, india and united states agreed to work in partnership to advance the denuclearization of north korea. as far as the test today, defense officials are determining exactly what kind of missiles were fired. say the missiles launched fle

keir starmer over an alleged break of lockdown rules last year. 0ur political correspondent jonathan blakeverdict from this set of votes has shown up some significant shifts. across england, scotland and wales the conservatives took a beating, losing control of 11 councils and close to 500 seats overall. these are local elections about local councillors, people who actually deal with potholes, bins and planning decisions — difficult decisions locally. and we shouldn't try and extrapolate too many national trends. i know it's always tempting. there were very, very low turnouts in many of these elections. in parts of southern england, the liberal democrats swept to power. in somerset and elsewhere, voters turned away from the tories. i think people have just had enough of all the duplicity, and it's about time, really. i'm delighted. possibly because the last party was not very trustworthy — - couldn't really trust what they said. - yeah, i know that i haven't got much trust in them any more. _ and i think it does send a message to central government that local people want to feel empowered

jonathan blake, thank ou.ounter—attacking near the country's second largest city, kharkiv, have advanced as far as the russian border. ukrainian forces have been retaking territory in north—eastern areas in recent days, as russian forces focus on the donbas region further south. it comes as nato officials said russia's strategy in the east of ukraine may be stalling, amid heavy losses and fierce resistance. meanwhile one of the biggest ever nato military exercises in the baltics gets under way in estonia today, involving ten countries, including the uk, us, finland and sweden. james waterhouse reports.

blake essig is live in tokyo for us.t do we know about the possible weapons test and the timing of it? >> reporter: the timing is interesting, perhaps an imminent weapons test could be used to distract north korea's domestic audience from the serious health crisis with covid unfolding, but more likely it is to send a message to president biden that north korea's missile program remains on schedule regardless of outside circumstances. and to this point the biden administration has made it clear that he won't drop sanctions as a price to sit down with the north. now, according to a u.s. official who spoke with barbara starr, north korea appears to be preparing for a possible intercontinental ballistic missile test within the next 48 hours just as president biden is set to visit south korea and japan on his first trip to asia as president. he will be here in tokyo on sunday. and the suggestion of a possible weapons test comes from a u.s. official familiar with the latest intelligence assessment and is based on satellite obs

. >> and blake, the prime minister said his country's alliance with the u.s. was more important than ever. what else did he say? >> in a part of the world that is seemingly more unstable by the day, friends and allies have never been more important for japan and the united states. there is no more important friend or ally, and the strength of that relationship was on display today when japan's prime minister called the alliance the linchpin of japan's diplomatic security. on the security front along with agreeing to continue monitoring chinese and russian joint military drills in the region, the leaders discussed the importance of peace and stability on the taiwan strait, saying each country remains committed to making sure china doesn't change the status quo by force. today president biden made it clear that the u.s. is fully committed to japan's depends while japan said they would not rule out any options including counterattack capabilities. domestically in japan, there has been a push to increase defense spending from 1 to 2% of its gdp, improved defensive

let me get to blake. blake, we are looking at live images right now from tokyo of the pacific and indo pacific framework to partner this economic plan. the account, kevin talked a bit about you know what the plan involves. but there is some reticent or criticism of this plan. why is that? >> reporter: there is a lot of uncertainty, actually, what the plan consists of. and at this point this is an opportunity, this is a framework of experts that we talked to, an opportunity for the united states to, once again, involve itself economically in this part of the world as kevin mentioned after president trump withdrew the united states from the tpp. so it's yet to be determined, yet to be seen whether or not this economic frame will stand the test of time. we've heard from china's foreign minister yesterday, who said that he thinks that this economic framework is doomed from the beginning. but to take a step back, you know, for japan and the united states, there really is no more important friend or ally in tha
