Since this latest escalation started in in december 2090 in the front lines inside it its always like this they they almost come face to face but the yes there was Something Different because this is the 1st time that so many soldiers are heads at once and killed at once thats why dont the shells have reacted harshly yesterday and we heard from the president ial present it is that he is retaliating and they have retaliated but of course this is a critical process because. Turkey has many troops inside the. First of troops when they are based on the sochi agreement and us than agreement that it would be a disk zone and turks and russians would would establish military observation posts to observe the possible oil ations of the day escalation but after the latest tension turkey deployed and more reinforcements more troops but i have to tell that the airspace is closed by the russians and the Syrian Regime so. Whatever success of the Turkish Forces and the rebels gain on the ground there is always this possibility like it happened yesterday right they can hit either direct human russians can hit from the right and there is no way out for them ok to them i just want to ask you if you could also briefly as possible please what is the nature of the operation of the Turkish Operation now against what its calling all known syrian targets do we have any details as to how this operations unfolding. Well so far as i said it was just an Observation Mission for the turks but beginning from the end of january it has turned out like a combat mission because there are also combat soldiers on the ground and the rebels are on the ground and after yesterdays incident ive been hearing that the comment level was given orders to hit any floor an item or element in the airspace then turks are ready to hit syria from lendon air from the bases inside turkey which are mainly the in the southeastern city d. R. Booker base and if from in julie raised to they will be learning more about the military mission how theyre going to conduct how theyre going to respond but it turns out turkey will retaliate at any means from now on because the military is also theyre angry and the motivation of the soldiers over there is very down martin all right thank you salem cause here live live in istanbul well anchor is also saying that it will no longer prevent Syrian Refugees from trying to get into europe according to Reuters News AgencyTurkish Police the coast guard and Border Security have all been ordered to stand down and allow syrians to cross into europe other by land or by sea. The Global Stock Markets in Subsaharan Africa are the latest to feel the impact of the corona Virus Outbreak as the threat continues to spread well beyond china on friday china reported its lowest number of new infections in over a month number of cases in south korea though thats risen to more than 2000 and the u. S. Down jones indexes recorded its biggest one day drop in history or take is key index plunged more than 3 percent on opening and in nigeria they have reported their 1st confirmed case there making it the 1st in Subsaharan Africa while in iran one of the Vice President s there has been diagnosed with the virus we can speak to katrina you know now who is in beijing catrina 1st so lets tell us more about the situation in south korea because they move rather swiftly and quite effectively it would appear to contain the spread of the virus and yet the numbers are rising up said really. Thats right in its morning briefing the south korean government have added 256 new cases to that total bring the total to about 2022 and 13 people have died one thing that the south korean government are doing is stepping up their testing methods they say that theyve tested a whopping 9000 people or so in the past 24 hours and theyre going very quickly through about 40000 people in total that they want to test in south korea said to have one of the better Testing Facilities or test testing approaches compared to many other countries but of course there are still some issues in the city of daegu which is the most affected city in south korea they have insufficient hospital beds about half the cases of people who are infected in south korea are in the city of digger and at the moment about only 600 of them have spaces in hospitals and the rest another 600. 00 are still waiting at home to have a position in a proper center now what the government has come out and said is that theyre going to announce a new package of about 13000000000. 00 to help deal with this outbreak and that brings the total from previous amounts that theyve said will contribute to this fight to about 16000000000. 00 to fight this outbreak in south korea much of that will go towards the medical system help from the outbreak helping with services and medical staff but it will also go towards helping to contain the economic fallout of this and in what a Korean Society of people are still reeling and theyre shocked at how quickly these numbers are rising in the very angry as well particularly at this church of jesus where morris of these cases are associated theyre saying that the secretive sect church was not as forthcoming or cooperative as they should have been and the mayor of deg or has said that hes going to take legal action against this church road katrina thanks for the really you there live in beijing or here with me is economics. So what is it specifically then that speaking. Markets about coronavirus its the unknown we have just at the start of this pandemic internationally outside its not officially called a pandemic at all yet thats true but i think many in the markets are referring to it as a pandemic because by any definition they understand you know that this is way out of control of governments right at this very moment and even the Health Services dont know where this is where this is going so for them its a crisis of confidence for the markets in particular and for investors because as dont know when this going to end so you know weve got companies coming out and saying listen you know were not going to hit our profit targets youve got microsoft saying you know all the p. C. Gaming Gaming Systems that we make the made in china we dont know when were going to get access to those so we dont know whats going to happen to our profits and so this this this is having a knock on effect around the globe right this very moment so it was rather interesting that moodys came out yesterday and said you know the chances of there being a recession in the 1st half of this year is not gone gone from if it will happen so its you know there cant kind of determine that you know this will happen there will be a recession in the 1st off of this year and youve got a couple economics coming out and saying you know we actually think this will be worse than the financial crisis of 2008 and if you look back at the mount of money that was spent during the financial crisis it was 22. 00 trillion dollars at the last reckoning by congress in the sum of their reports so is this pessimism them based upon the interruption to supply chains like you mentioned microsoft apple and people basically just not turning not going to work because they are in either self isolation or in quarantine in china for instance or is this about the lack of demand for instance with a shrinking economy china is not going to need as much as many of the commodities that sustained so many of the economy is around the world so if you if you start shutting down your businesses and saying you know to control the virus what we need to do is. We need to stop people from going out interacting going to supermarkets then you know that you can have a contraction in demand it will happen and it has happened and were seeing this and this is rather unusual were not were not seeing this in the modern era you know where we can we can actually say lets take this model and this model that in our economic models so economists having a really difficult time trying to assess exactly what this what this actually means now. The economists at the Capital Economics say you know we could see. The economy. Shaving off 1. 5 percent at the worst and not point 5 percent at the minimum you know if this if this if this spread of this virus is control of what you use the word pandemic. And so you know so we wait and see situation and for the markets as well you know weve seen a 10 percent drop which is basically a correction and you know were not in the territory where we were in 2008 when we had a bear market when the markets fell 20 percent and that was just over fears of what the Central Banks were going to do in specially the fed with the fed continue to raise Interest Rates but in this situation the fed cant come in and rescue the world from from this particular crisis you know this this we need to see how it plays out and see what kind of medical breakthroughs there are to actually treat somebody and every single headline is being treated as a negative at this very moment in time when that stops will know that theres a bottom so the markets all right thank you very much abbott alley our economics editor thank you.

And israels Opposition Leader benny gantz is fighting to reverse a recent dip in the opinion polls before the election mondays vote will be the 3rd in less than a year after both cancer and Prime Minister netanyahu fail to cobble together a Coalition Force that has long now from west sirius and then. Benny gantz was in southern israel this week the former army chief not for the 1st time demanding stronger action against hamas and Islamic Jihad in gaza but his harshest criticism hasnt been trained on Prime Minister netanyahu Security Policy rather on his character that. Netanyahu look at me in the eye look at the israelis in the eye because of your obsession of escaping trial you were lying splitting dividing mocking distributing malicious rumors and inciting netanyahu you are poisoning israel.
