Again there are going according to the information from the scene from Government People be put on a plane without testing 1st with or they have coronavirus this is dangerous a plane has more than 200 people if one or 2 have the virus all the passengers will be in trouble this if its the whole country and raises the possibility of the disease spreading further getting a gas a is a lawyer practicing at the Indian Supreme Court he is representing an indian expat to file the case for speedy evacuation good to have you with us live on aljazeera so who are you representing i was the backstory to your client. Listen to an indian citizen who is based in the u. A. E. By the name of what mr smuggler sees youve been very actively involved with the explorer who seem to explore if you wish and you flattens you stating that a lot of well you know lots of lakes the word sex the explorer finding it extremely difficult. It is affected conditions a little absence to be completely challenging challenging aspect and he has i like the concerned citizens outwill to the done but to their own let. 1 the same then be decided to initiate Public Interest litigation in the Supreme Court of india and some of the up our fellow citizens in countries like the u. A. E. And you have probably because it has a large number of experience Indian Origin there the magicians the extreme one highlight the broader issue of the. Illusion of proper or quite a proper Legal Framework and wish efforts of the government of india could be under. The fair that there is a huge legal action in which the center cross of the question where tension we may operate and that was a concern which each way we are trying to bring before the employer because we look at it that we should not only has a movement of people from point a to point b. But as a whole process is greening starting from our end if from the horse from tree to make sure that there is in good luck to ensure that once they come back to india the state columns are in a position to handle these multitudes whats coming and to ensure that there quarantined well let me just let me just interject so let me just interject that ill take this piece by piece lets talk about the fact that your client will be moving from the u. A. E. To india so whats his understanding of being tested at the moment in the u. A. E. And the approach that he will be he will receive once he lands on indian soil. She is of course acting in the larger Public Interest but one of the concerns with usa lading in the u. A. E. Was not that much people looked at. The show particularly truck in india but i heard the sort. Of screening in these labor camps maybe the only challenge sick i mean that a lot of people would like to specially people who are not affected or are not affected at this stage indonesian dont but that he felt that it was better in tunis that decisions and the going and economic. Things that he felt that it would be better for them to go back to their homeland and to ensure that that was at the core and in crisis and that there would be but of course this is one of the concerns and he is one unwilling to be subjected to what i want to get tested screening is not new unique presumably but then the state you talk about the framework that you would like to see the Indian Government implement for the movement of people both from respective countries back to india itself are you confident that the Indian Government can do this considering they couldnt or they were perceived not to be able to move domestic Migrant Workers from one state to the next because of trains planes and buses being whole tid and people couldnt get back to their home villages. De initially should do into my own work has happened during the midst of the lot done and it was an unprecedented lot starting from sunday at march. And the darn led to a complete knowledge of state politics and trapped to do what has happened as a condition a lifting of the got across so today i think legally speaking the lot done has been lifted the government of india even the State Government is there looking at any that preceded situation is not like that problem starting to look at all of that disturbance at what were in during 1950. 00 most of 1000000 plus people. But that was a case where you lifted people and brought them back home and they were just gone on their own nor internationally and the knicks are let me get that much in seats and stop them from when theyre all to do in a position is different because you will not have to ensure that the muscles of people are being brought into a plane the 1st social checking happens at the airport so you do ensure that checking there happens which mean doesnt it mean for a lot of the gulf and never the host country once that is done ones are transported back to garmin the whole process of quarantining people dont show that food is given to them to internet isnt significant and should be what at 80 conditions lest you have a big disaster waiting to happen what you are trying to buy into was actually the lack of a proper framework and we believe that a proper protocol or a proper legal got a call or a procedure established by law would enable the returning people to be not discriminated if it doesnt go that opportunities are not transparency in the process as lawyers we found out as you looked at the plaintiff and that that statement that he should be given even starts to come back and not really based on that being the best and just sort of just as a concern and sort of that i didnt just because were running out of time but just a brief and final. Question re patrick nation for any national from any country is never a free ticket back home for many of the Migrant Workers that are coming back from the gulf they went to the gulf because they come from poor backgrounds and send most of their money back to india to support their families can they afford the Airline Ticket to get them back home. Believe morsy be blocking the tot mom bought who are really marginalized. Because im sure this segment but thats modder emittance coming and these people contribute in a big look at economy but this is a diamond i believe the government of india should at least if not the tickets maybe may be very challenging but god could look at such a nice thing or any discounting piece to get specially for people who get in a flame to be people who do not have the economic ability of buying that use of ticket or i think the end of the omen probably. Means that a strong were winning at that the only. To ensure that its people going back tore the dollar you know up a screening process to get should be something was a goal and should be looking at cannot afford it i think that its a primary you and your follow couldnt get before it fell into career because it very gassy thanks so much for joining us from new delhi really appreciate your time thank you very much. Buying a beer or whisky in indias capital state has just become a lot more expensive a 70 percent alcohol tax has been imposed in delhi to try and determine large crowds queuing outside shops but Police Seized battens to disperse crowds on monday indians rush to buy their favorite tipple after the government eased virus restrictions and allowed shops to reopen for the 1st time in 6 weeks. One of the toughest crowbars lockdowns of asia is to be eased even hong kong chief executive terry lamb says cinemas and bars can reopen later this week between e. U. Has more from beijing the government and kerry lamb said that they were very confident that hong kong had stabilized its corona Virus Outbreak enough to be able to ease some of those very strict measures that have been in place for weeks so starting from this friday groups of up to 8 people will be able to gather in public and theyll be able to eat together for example in restaurants previously that maximum group number was for also some key venue some key businesses will finally be able to reopen that includes jims cinemas and tears has some balls as well as beauty parlors and finally they also announce some opening dates for schools which many families have been looking forward to so starting from may 27th older High School Kids will be able to attend school but they wont be all at once Younger High School students as well as primary School Students will be able to resume classes from the beginning of june and now this follows weeks of corn a virus cases in hong kong dwindling in fact in the last 16 days there have been 0 new local infections that have been some imported cases but there have been very few only Single Digits if any on some days and it also follows months of real real economic battering that hong kong has seen the the economy in hong kong declined in its 1st quarter this year by about 9 percent compared to last year so the government is very keen to get the economy going again but its not quite out of the woods yet the government said that theyre going to give every hong kong that is in the reusable mask that theyre expected to wear when theyre out and about and some businesses including night clubs karaoke clubs as well as saunas and bath houses will remain closed for at least another 2 weeks. Lets stay in the region because south korea is further easing lock down restrictions with sports leagues getting underway again the baseball season is up and running after being proposed in march but rob a bride reports from incheon it will be some time before its business as usual the final warm up for the long awaited start of the delayed baseball season local incheon favorites s. K. Wyverns take on visitors and why eagles but conspicuously absent from the stands their fans instead many of the seats occupied by printed versions of spectators while real fans could only watch on t. V. Or online through a club stream that combines the action in the park with the cheering in homes. Pinioned the into look you know its one thing if we are hoping to deliver some of the atmosphere of the stadium to the fans at home so they feel as though they are here at the game. Theyre also joined by potentially millions of baseball fans around the world as the 3rd ranked baseball playing nation after the u. S. And japan south koreas live games are in big demand in a world starved of live sports action so good. We welcome the increased attention on korean baseball its great to promote it and its all thanks to our citizens for getting us to this stage south koreas success so far in defeating the coronavirus is also allowing the football k. League to start its season later this week but again without fans in another sport for which large cheering crowds seem indispensable so crowds are important because there they are part of what we expect when we go to see a game or when we watch a game the noise the tension the drama the anxiety the happiness the emotion this is this is not driven by empty stadiums this is driven by full stadiums south koreas baseball teams hope to start adding the essential fan ingredient soon even when the fans are finally allowed back in there will still be a long time before we see packs stands again their numbers will increase only gradually with empty seats between them and for now their silent stand ins will have to do and when they do return theyll find previously unheard of precautions for the players such as no hugging and no spitting the way baseball is played and the way its watched is turning into a very different game Robert Bright aljazeera incheon south korea. Well russia has reported more than 10000 new cases for the 3rd consecutive day that raises the total number of confirmed infections to around 155000 infections have been registered in all 85 regions of russia with moscow being the epi center concerns are being raised in the country after 3 medics fighting the pandemic have been killed or injured in accidents in the space of just over a week in late april 2 doctors died after falling out of hospital windows one of the women had reportedly spoken out about a shortage of supplies for her staff the other was being accused of spreading the virus to her colleagues a 3rd medic is in serious condition or a similar fall on saturday but he complained the week before about a lack of protective equipment and being forced to work despite testing positive for covert 19 well the falls are being viewed suspiciously by many in russia several critics of the government of fall and to their deaths in recent years Rachel Dunbar is from Human Rights Watch and joins me now from new york via skype good to have you with us on aljazeera. To just begin. Weve talked about russia here on aljazeera and its limited Health Care Infrastructure these past few months but just to reiterate in your opinion how inadequate are the facilities and the preparations or the lack of staff to deal with covert 19 what are the stories that youve been hearing. I think it depends very much from region to region but remember this is a pandemic and even the best the best supplied and most economically state report regions of the world have been hit very very hard russia is no exception and moscow is no exception so whereas in moscow the mayor has made. Tens of thousands of hospital beds julian salable the government muscular still struggling the government has the escorted 100000 extra cost of thats to be made available but again i think it really depends on how economically advantaged is indeed and again im going to point back to aljazeera reporting again back in april of the demolition of a star blish hospitals because they were apparently outdated and the construction of temporary ones for the pandemic outside the capital extra beds were being added or beds were being added to existing hospitals in terms of the situation now and youve just mentioned moscow is really sort of the main epicenter for where the virus is well established come the company will cope. Well like i said its struggling there is there there is still a shortage of hospital beds there have been many reports of ambulance ambulances lined up outside of hospitals because they cant find a bed or for the people theyre bringing and lets take them home or and taking taking them back to another Hospital Point either that hospital or suggest that so struggling we also have reports of ambulance of shortages of protective equipment there was a report. That once workers we talked about having to actually go out to. The home of a truck that store to buy construction suits that they would then use for their personal protective equipment it has to be said that the russian government in their defense been warning about social distancing and of course the message seems to be falling on deaf ears because we were heading towards east many want to go to church and there was a scenario of you might say Holy Communion and kissing idols and pictures of those sorts of issues were worrying the government large why dont the public why havent the public listened to those. Well 1st i think we need to say that. Russia was came late social distancing so it wasnt until march 30th there was a general lockdown that it wasnt until. Most regions and it wasnt until april 15th that that lockdown was then reinforced by control measures so required residents to get to our codes or s. M. S. Codes in order to get the the house to do anything more than go to a supermarket so i think the problem is that not that people dont respect social distancing that the public doesnt trust social justice saying but that it wasnt really imposed until quite late in the game and if thats the case then what was your impression of these accusations that these these medics who died under suspicious circumstances have to complaining about either the way they were being treated or the fact that they didnt have the equipment they needed to protect themselves and their colleagues in hospitals that were dealing with covert 19. I think there are serious crowns for alarm at how medical workers are being treated if states try to speak out about about their conditions of work there is a law in russia banning state that downstate us and in the context of covert 19 its the extensive criminal sanctions right up to 5 years in prison and fines that range you know up to you know tens of thousands of dollars if you spread whats called fake news and some of the some of the cases that have been in which there have been warnings about criminal cases or even opening up of a criminal destination have included medical workers who were complaining about recent alarm about the lack of protective equipment the lack of the protective equipment it includes journalists who have been talking about the lack of the lack of ventilators so i think that there are very strong grounds for alarm about about pressure to say silence medical workers about their work conditions of course very very distant exactly how they feel considering the situation but working into the moment torrential done both thanks very much for joining us from new york thank you thank you so much. Still ahead here on the aljazeera news are accusations and recriminations well have the latest on the apparent attempt in venezuela. And in sport the n. F. L. Cancels its games in london and mexico city for the coming season details with santa later in the program. Britain has overtaken italy with the highest number of krona virus dead in europe newly released government statistics show the total surpasses 32000. 00 the National Health service says the outbreak has passed its peak of course over to china hello correspondent in london and those figures out today putting those u. K. Deaths the highest in europe alarming jonah but we do have to be careful about how we read those figures. Yes i think its quite difficult to draw direct comparisons between countries in terms of their headline death tolls there are factors that affect countries differently the u. K. Has a bigger population than italy for instance italy has an older population the u. K. Official death toll in the last week they expanded from taking into account hospital deaths to include deaths in the Community Deaths in care homes and so on italys death toll doesnt include for instance suspected cases of coded 900 so youre putting these 2 headline figures up against each other doesnt necessarily tell us very much it does of course reinforce how badly affected the u. K. Is it does fuel questions that are being asked of politicians every day now about quite why this country appears to have been so ill prepared for this epidemic particularly when it had 2 or 3 weeks to watch with horror of what was happening in italy and learn lessons from that and more broadly than that it it reinforces questions being asked generally about why the western world europe and the United States have been so badly if they affected by covert 90 while parts of asia south korea for instance of got off relatively lightly because they were so much better prepared so lots of questions come out of these numbers not necessarily very many answers do not suppose the British Public still wondering where its all going to end because it doesnt seem to be and the light at the end of the tunnel. Well look in these office for National Statistics numbers released on tuesday there is some sign that reinforces the idea that britain has passed its peak the recorded death numbers for the week to april the 24th showed a very small dip in that week the 1st time theres been any different or since the beginning of this epidemic and that is reinforced by falling infection rates the falling our number the reproduction number of the virus no falling but falling very very slowly indeed as i say it indicates that corroborates the governments view that the peak has been passed there preparing for the 2nd wave with Contact Tracing techniques and app being trialled on the art of white power and i think its likely in the coming couple of weeks rather like other countries in europe that the lockdown will gradually slowly begin to be lifted but in terms of light at the end of the tunnel well here and elsewhere youre talking there really about a vaccine and the best guess from the Scientific Community now is that even if they discover a vaccine getting it scaled up to be available to billions of people worldwide is still easily 12 to 18 months away turn help in london thank you thats had the americas now as venezuelas president Nicolas Maduro says 13 people have been captured following what he says was a coup attempt but says the group including 2 americans arrived in speedboats on sunday intending to kill him and he says the plant was led by the u. S. Colombia an Opposition Leader on why dont know who denies the allegations. Or for should not be with only a u. S. Official and a consultant in the war in iraq and afghanistan last night reported and showed the contracts signed by the venezuelan opposition which have privatized and preparing extradition of mercenaries in terrorists trained in colombia to storm venezuela and try to kill me. Well john holmes our correspondent following events for us from mexico city and obviously several versions about exactly what happened weve heard part of the official narrative what else has the government been saying. But you delay is to speak for mrs been President Donald Trump of the United States basically said this is nothing to do with us he said that just it just an hour or so ago so the u. S. Basically. Denying responsibility for this saying that these guys acted alone and so on white guilt the man that more than 50 countries have said its the legitimate leader of venezuela hes also said this has nothing to do with us and he said were actually worried about now is that the governments going to use this to stop persecuting the opposition in the country the government of venezuela has said that theyre going to deploy 25000. 00 military personnel to search for those who may have been involved with this incursion into the country circles of Different Reasons lying around there of the state the venezuelan government as you said saying the u. S. And the opposition are both the u. S. And both the opposition saying this is nothing to do with us and this could be just something thats being used as a show by the venezuelan government actually the opposition has said this could be used as a show distract from other things are happening in the country such as a prison riot and continued Gang Violence in track because of the last few days turn home and thank you in mexico a city thats called save it and to complain how could our White House Correspondent and complete you know john alluded that the president has been speaking about this incident whats he been saying. That well get to that tape in just a moment but 1st i want to try to set that up a little bit there as john reported the state department has been denying that any u. S. Agency has been involved with this military incursion this is then followed up now by the strongest denials yet coming from the u. S. President as he left and departed for arizona from here at the white house but certainly the United States has been involved in the effort to Pressure Campaign to oust Nicolas Maduro but in terms of this. Latest capture of these 2 mercenaries its a very dramatic video being played on television the u. S. Is strongly denying all of this but certainly it is a story that is gripping Many Americans as they learn more about it given the fact that this video shows these 2 americans their passports being read by the venezuelan leader along with their names and power and their birthdates but again a in terms of the u. S. President he says that this plot has nothing to do with the United States nothing to do with our government but i just got information on that so wolf well well find out we just heard about it 1 but whatever it is well let you go but it has nothing to do with our government. Still as i mentioned the United States has been for some time leading an effort to unseat Nicolas Maduro as the venezuelan leader for example most recently they charged Nicolas Maduro as a drug trafficker and offered 15000000 for his arrest as well the 2 countries have broken diplomatic ties and also there have been in place a number of very tough economic sanctions to add to this Pressure Campaign the most one of the more recent accusations as well is that the United States believes that they elections that took place in 28000 were rigged and so theyve made that accusation as well the United States firmly backing the Opposition Leader was quite oh can we help at all White House Correspondent thank you.

Welcome back youre watching aljazeera news hour with means the whole robin a reminder of our top stories india is launching one of the Worlds Largest International Repatriation missions flights to 13 countries will start on thursday while warships have already been deployed to bring back hundreds of thousands of workers stranded overseas due to Coronavirus Travel restrictions also russia has reported more than 10000. 00 new cases 43rd consecutive day but that raises the total number of confirmed infections. Around 155000 infections have been registered in all 85 regions of russia with moscow being the at the center and leading broadcast Network Company in the philippines has been ordered to shut down present rodrigo to tangiers regularly criticize the a. B. S. C. B. S. Network opponents accuse him of targeting independent media the telecoms of already says the companys board casting license has expired and said to north africa now where libyas internationally recognized government has launched an offensive to capture an air base controlled by ward cleaver hafter what the years been used to launch strikes on Government Forces they recently seize control of some cities along the western coastline and rejected have to call for a ceasefire during the holy month of ramadan thats because of talk or a spot of mahmoud of the one head who is in the capital tripoli and what seems to be happening. Right now. Well so he learned currently have to the forces inside the. R. B. C. To do by the Government Forces from civil directions the battle was fierce today heavy fighting get ended the both warring factions exchanging heavy artillery fire the Government Forces say that they lost a number of fighters in the battle for a while today but they say also that they have full control of. The say that of the government to draw out in full control of the day and all of the sky over a what year thanks partly to the drawings also the Government Forces say that they they they they exchanged artillery fire with the have to their forces inside and were to but because of the nature of the babies and its very well equipped as you know so hated that this base is there was stabbed by American Contractors in 1942 and its a very well equipped its been accommodated to. Include about 8000 military individuals and it has inside of them is depose an old saw artillery and did a military drones used to take off from that base to launch airstrikes to target the Government Forces locations in southern a trip pretty ok so lets just put this in context then mahmoud in terms of how strategic the location is and how important capturing it would from after would mean for Government Forces. Well its 1st of all very strategic because its. Mainly an exclusively accommodated for crafts and. It is the measure of a base for half of us forces in the west of the country in plus have that us forces whole fled the strategic city of sobriety along with other cities and towns that the Government Forces recaptured to 2 weeks ago those pro have sort of forces they fled those areas and the position inside awards here a base so if it falls to the Government Forces then half the forces would deal with a major airbase in the worst of the country and now the government can eliminate any air force threat but have those forces if they took over the take control of a wittier air base. The word thanks for joining us from tripoli with that update now as the numbers of new coronavirus cases begins to drop in some countries qatar is still recording hundreds of new infections every day it now has the 2nd highest number of cases in the arab world despite having a relatively small population qatars the Public Health minister dr hunter mohammed al coati told our desire but most of the countries havent tested enough to know the full extent of the brakes. Number of cases has gone up but thats only natural and i believe that actually its a result of our very strong testing measures so as youve seen we are testing a lot and at that so weve been testing approximately 40000 per 1000000 so thats quite significant thats one of the highest rates of testing and and that reflects a true picture of whats happening in terms of infection rates so the rates are not high theyre realistic but you will find that a lot of countries at the end of their pandemic will realize that their curve actually looks like ours so if you see the number of cases and that there may be high but theyre actually a mild cases so 93 percent of the cases are mild only one percent end up in i. C. U. And another 5 percent and up in the admitted in the hospital and thats actually quite a very quite a good debate to have in the country and thats because we are very active in seeking the cases were very active in finding cases tracing them leyton them quarantining them and therefore managing the case and situation much better and you can watch that interview in full with dr hunter. Talking to her. Talk to al jazeera or not to be shown at 1630. 00 g. M. T. Stay. In israel the leaders of local councils and arab terms of god on strike demanding compensation for revenue lost as a result of the coronavirus pandemic are a false it tells more from the. This is a National Problem across israel local governments have had a huge shortfall in what they would usually expect to take in in terms of local taxes because of the businesses shuttering under the coronavirus restrictions but leaders of palestinian israeli minister parties such as this one say that they arent being compensated to the same extent under a Government Program as big or jewish majority areas in israel is an 800000000. 00 Compensation Scheme from the interior ministry but areas such as this one say theyre only getting in total some 13000000. 00 of that and they say thats just not enough but that the attilla be billeted talked about this is why we ask them to deal with the arab sector that lacks resources hundreds of thousands of people are under the poverty line therefore we ask them to increase funding to cover 25 percent of our losses to money in 1. 00 sense these palestinian israeli areas of israel are victims of a mathematical logic that the biggest economies the biggest cities the majority jewish theyre the ones that have had the biggest tax losses and are therefore getting the biggest compensation payments from the government but the palestinian israeli mayors and Council Leaders say that its evidence of a longer term problem that theyre areas that had chronic underinvestment in their economies over many years and that is one reason why there is a higher level of poverty and that they require high levels of support as a result the Israeli Interior Ministry tells us that it does ignore leads but the compensation offered so far doesnt solve the problems for towns such as this one that they are offering other means of support and that they are looking in to further Financial Assistance as israel starts to ease itself from its coronavirus restrictions.
