but also from the democratic forces so that you know but unfortunately anyone found the the national unity government was worth in no one from the national unity government was invited to the meeting but needed disappointing. for a 3rd day india has recorded the world's highest number of new infections more than 346000 the health care system is close to collapse under the pressure hospitals are short of everything beds medicine and oxygen at exit this crisis a fire killed 14 people of a hospital in the hardest hit states elizabeth pradhan reports now from new delhi. overcome with grief and anger this man and other family members of 14 people killed in the fire at this hospital in maharashtra state broke down as they confronted staff the place where through the intensive care unit all i see you from what i would recommend are unfortunately a major fire disaster happened at our hospital at about 3 am there was a sudden spark from the air condition and since there was a lot of oxygen supply in the i.c.u. it was completely. and gulf within 2 minutes. 2 days ago in the same state a lake and an oxygen tank

who joins us live from bangkok and tony let's start with these arrest warrants against the national unity government what kind of impact will they have. well not much at the moment because many of the members of the national unity government cabinet are already in detention like those senior members in the former president when mint you just mentioned or they're in hiding many of them in areas around the border with neighboring countries areas that are under the tree of the control of other ethnic forces at this stage the formation of the national unity government is for the most part symbolic but i think it was done very much to try and deny legitimacy to the military jets that both in the eyes of the people with them but i think importantly for those people outside in governments outside as well a lot of people hoping very much that with this as the end summit meeting the national unity government would be invited in some capacity but it does at this stage appear to have been shown by the southeast asian leaders meeting in jakarta this week and well let's talk about those leaders are meeting in ja

the. they would like to see local governments within the region to be speaking to the national unity government i suppose in the sense that presents a problem many of the members of the national unity government are in detention or in hiding under arrest in some cases so it would be very difficult to open a dialogue with them but i think people feel that particularly in the case of a country like thailand for example that announced that men on ly would be attending the meeting in jakarta on saturday they feel they have a very cozy relationship with the joint to the generals here know the generals are there and i think they're very concerned that if minong ly is accepted into the fold that this leaders meeting it will make it much easier for the military than to impose control over myanmar and to legitimize their military coup all right thank you for that tony chang there cost about meant to me and mark from bangkok russia has expelled $20.00 diplomats from the czech republic it's a reaction to a similar move by prague accusing russian spies of involvement in a 2014 explosion at an arms depo 2 o

myanmar for us from bangkok tony how are these arrest warrants likely to affect the operations of this national unity government. well frankly not very much at the moment the national unity government is a government in name only some of its most senior members including the president when mint and son suchi the state council are still in detention as they have been since the coup probably isolated by their military captors and may well have no idea that this government has been formed others are in hiding around me amar some are in border areas they had in fact been talk that should be pushed to create a safe zone somewhere along the borders where these people could gather free from the fear of arrest by the military and actually start the operations of a proper government it's really been formed in part to stop other countries giving recognition and legitimacy to the military that hasn't worked in the case of assy and we know that senior gentlemen onli will be going to carter on saturday for that as u.n. meeting and it may explain somewhat why c.n.n. hasn't communicated i think the asean leaders are unsure wh

they welcome the creation of this national-unity government. tially, it could give hope to those who are fighting, back, against the military coup, which happened on february 1st. so, what we understand, at this point, is that some of the positions have been listed. we know that aung san suu kyi, the ousted leader, will be state counselor. but, of course, she is detained. we know that she is currently going through a -- a court case from the -- the military. so, it's very difficult to see how they can physically form. most of the people who are named as -- as having significant positions are outside of the country. others are within the ethnic areas. but the -- those that have formed this national-unity government say that the key, now, is to make sure that they can get international support, and international recognition. we know that conversations have started, also, with the u.s.-state department. and certainly, that is what they are pushing for, now. let's listen to -- to one of the main people within this national-unity government, dr. sass

gentlemen onli will give legitimacy to the military coup the problem for the nations is that if they want to include the unity government it's very hard to communicate with them some of their senior members like suchi remain in detention many others are in hiding so if they want to open up a line of dialogue it will be very complicated and i think the hope is here particularly in thailand but in other r.c.m. nations they can find at least some pathway to climb back down but with the level of violence we're seeing from the security services over the past couple of weeks i think it's going to be very complicated all right thanks so much tony. police in pakistan say supporters of a banned political party to kill a bank took 6 police officers hostage in lahore on sunday police said earlier raided their offices from think thousands to take to the streets in violent protests charlotte balance reports. i suppose is have to recalibrate pakistan to not be silenced nowness shield he they started protesting last year after caricature of the prophet muhammad who republished in france well last week they protested after the governme
