Planned across the u. K. But there are fears of a confrontation right groups. Plus why some and seasonal farmworkers dried up so many in turkey and the winter of discontent may follow. And im going to school says former pakistan cricket captain Shahid Afridi becomes the latest high profile sportsman to test positive for corona virus. So then we begin in beijing where a district in the Chinese Capital is on high alert after dozens of people there tested positive for corona virus at the 1st after 2 months of no infections in the city a wholesale market and 11 neighborhoods in its vicinity have been placed under lockdown after testing 45 people at the market were positive for cavan 1000 officials in that beijing district say they are on a war footing to contain the virus and Chinese Capital is also delaying the reopening of some schools as a result lets go straightaway to katrina you joins us live now from beijing and katrina tell us more about this new a cluster of cases in beijing and how the government has responded. Well so far that we know that all of these cases a link to a wholesale market called the shin 5 d. Wholesale market now this is the biggest and the most important in beijing morse of the citys Fresh Produce and fresh meat is souls from there its unfun tide disagree just southwest of the city about one hour from downtown beijing now about 4000. 00 people work there and we understand that the authorities are currently testing many of those people who work there and also people who have known who are known to have visited that market in the last 2 weeks now it 1st came to the attention of the authorities went on friday 2 men who are linked to the market tested positive for the core and a virus one had nor travel history and one had recently returned from a week visit to china also from testing so the whole market has been closed the government has set up headquarters there the military police have sealed off the area to sort of want to area want to sit ins and outs in coming in people coming in and out of the district but also the Authorities Say that some chopping board of a cell or selling sand then was known to have found traces of this corona virus as well and that sparked a little bit of panic around seafood in the city and many restaurants and hotels and supermarkets are removed fresh seafood from the shelves as well as their menus right was certainly the government take it very seriously worryingly infractions of all to be reported in other parts of georgia. Thats right this really sparked concerns about a possible 2nd wave of infections at a time when the country was really starting to relax all around many cities have rid of really remove some of the restrictions that it had been imposed earlier this year in the authorities are saying that this really goes to show that nobody can let their guard down when it comes to this virus we know in beijing all wholesale markets have been closed and infante district where this cluster is located 11 neighborhoods have been sealed off and some public transport routes have been shut down as well and we know that many events sporting events and public gatherings that had been planned over the summer for the next few weeks theyve now been canceled as well as School Reopening as primary schools were supposed to open on fraud on monday thats been further delayed further indefinitely and also in terms of seafood and fresh fresh food thats coming into the city the government says that theyre going to step up monitoring of that just to make sure that the virus indeed has not sourced and from a particular type of meat thats come into the city as well people are here here are very concerned because theyre drawing. Parallels between this outbreak and the outbreak and which was the original at the center of what people suspected that the origin of the pandemic pandemic may have been that market and mohan so people here are indeed very worried about this new outbreak yes i can imagine this is certainly a Troubling Development so it could through you thanks very much indeed lets explore this further we can speak to Mary Louise Mclaws whos a professor of epidemiology and Health Care Information and Infectious Diseases control of the university of New South Wales joins us now from sydney in australia welcome to the program this is a troubling. Development and it follows 2 months of many infections in beijing and suddenly this happens would you go on to supposed to. Yes sadly yes i mean the old thirtys like to give up elections good news because they know that they have locked down fatigue but this is commonplace in places where restrictions are being lifted now you do have to give china full credit for all of the hard work theyve done to get the numbers. But its not unexpected when we know them out to about 40 percent of people are either priest symptomatic or asymptomatic so if you test a couple of people and they test positive or a couple 100 that represents potentially more cases out there who are quite a well or they at least perceive themselves to be well and they go on to the whip marketplace and what markets are like shopping malls for us so its not unusual to have a lot of exposure happening in places like that i mean its very disappointing but the authorities have moved very rapidly to get it under control and given what youre saying in till there is a vaccine this this threat of a 2nd wave will gloom just not in china but everywhere around the world. Absolutely everywhere its very disappointing. But you know places like china and new zealand korea are astray. Could be thinking of opening up their german bubble tonight type countries that have got their numbers down very low but theyll have to suffer small crashed unless they were to 0 now new zealand has 0 and china was getting close to 0 but given their enormous population and its a huge country and theyve done very well but they will get the occasional case but they may find a country that has a similar approach to going out and eradicating trying to not just control but eradicate to make it more of a you know economic jim bubble so i do think that in this case in china this small spike that were seeing right now is will be just that it is not the kind of precursor to a 2nd wave or is it just no way of knowing. I think the term 2nd wave is often used incorrectly i mean we saw a 2nd wave in spanish flu and that was because they had this war effort a particular places in america wanted to have street to could take support parades and that caused this enormous wave but also the flu had changed slightly and have become even more aggressive im sure we dont think that the virus mutates dramatically it takes a very long time for this sort of buyers to mutate so what were seeing is. Just not even spikes that may be clusters and i think its commonplace and id be surprised if china had a classic 2nd wave. Or i will leave it there a great talking to you good to get your expertise on this do appreciate it thats americas mccools thanks a lot. My pleasure i hope im right indeed well the World Health Organization says the americas are getting hit the hardest by the coronavirus pandemic the region currently has 4 of the 10 worst hit countries in the world a cave of 19 is highly active especially in central and south america well brazils president jaya belsen are once described coronavirus as a little flu its now become a Health Crisis for his country brazil has the 2nd highest number of deaths from covert 90 in the world and is on to ramp yeti as this. Workers at the largest cemetery and or exhuming more than double the amount of bodies they usually do to make room for fresh. As the number of 1000 deaths in the country overwhelms capacity but even if the country is now the worlds 2nd highest death toll after the us people are returning to the streets in mass the World Health Organization is again sounding the alarm. Says so far the National Health system is holding up to the pressure overall the Health System is still coping in brazil though having said that with the sustained number of severe cases. It is that remains to be seen and clearly the whole system in brazil across the country needs significant support in order to sustain its efforts in this regard president jackie both so narrow west threaten to leave the w. H. O. All together is this missing concerns about a lack of beds calling on his followers to go into hospitals to demonstrate that this is just a political ploy against them. Is there a Field Hospital near you or a Public Hospital find a way to get in and film it a lot of people are already doing this more people have to do it to show if the beds are occupied or not. Also narrows dismissive response to depend there mick has further entrenched and already deeply divided country with weekly protests in favor and against the president which at times have turned violent. Adding to the torah moyle both scenarios sons are under investigation for corruption your position is calling for the presidency impeachment to well its allies or saying a military intervention is necessary to keep him in power. With the current virus pandemic he had in fact an increase in political instability and a political crisis meaning more conflict between the powers the executive branch the Supreme Court the national congress. As the number of coronavirus cases rise the political divisions are widening testing the health and the stability of latin americas largest democracy i listened that m. P. s and. Well mexico has recorded it daily number of corona virus infections since the start of the pandemic more than 5200 new cases were reported on friday and that brings the total to daily 140000 at least 16000 people have died from cope with 90 despite the rise in infections mexico city plans to lift transport restrictions next week to allow people to get back to work. Well not much because indigenous population numbers upwards of 12000000 people and they speak 62 different languages and this means getting Public Health information out to them on containing the spread of covert 19 can be challenging to say the least as many republic reports now from mexico city today this radio message is being broadcast in sample one of 16 indigenous languages spoken in the mexican state of well how can we get its own easily what is is a radio announcer part of her job is getting out the word about the worsening coded 1000 al break in the country for many of the love that you threw the radio we can give people suggestions and explain how they can care for themselves in our Spanish Language or in septic. The haka is mexicos most linguistically diverse state here a 3rd of the population speak at least one native language some dont speak spanish at all. This poses a challenge for authorities when it comes time to informing people of changing policies for containing the spread of coronavirus. When we have a world us that this takes our recommendations that they are not transmitted in a language that can be understood by everyone that is where we are falling shorting guaranteeing people their off additional rights to access to information and Public Health when the bad bank wayside you need one Government Initiative thats proved popular is an online coded 19 Information Campaign available in nearly every indigenous language and dialect spoken in mexico. This excess of mexicos online Information Campaign depends almost entirely on a person having access to the internet. Nationwide only about a half of all households have any form of Internet Connection now it seems to me to mexicos poor states like where haka connectivity is even more limited this makes radio information lifeline if we can put that. Its very important that the internet be a right for everyone middle class the poor without discrimination its a right for everyone as human beings. According to Health Experts the corona Virus Outbreak in mexico is nearing its height reeky critical that people heed the recommendations to continue self isolation and social distancing and. Mexico city one of the 3rd part of our series we take you to ecuador where an Indigenous Community is using its ancestral knowledge to combat the virus and you can see that on sunday right here of course on aljazeera. All right. A government protests are continuing in the southern syrian town of psuedo for days demonstrators in the government held area have demanded the resignation of the president Bashar Al Assad they blame his government for the collapse of the economy after years of civil war there also calling for the release of prisoners at the end of the iranian and russian presence in syria. Protesters have rallied for a 2nd night in lebanon over the governments handling of a deeply economic crisis hundreds voiced anger over the spiraling cost of living to sponsor a government promise to bolster the local currency for torah houses. It was protesters have no confidence the lebanese government can stop the worsening economic crisis that anger and frustration is feeling violent protests as people lose hope. And they reach demonstrators through fireworks and rocks at riot police. They were met with a volley of tear gas. Shops in the capital were attacked. And in the Northern City of tripoli protesters held petrol bombs at soldiers. They should all resign so we can live and so those young unemployed men can live instead of becoming robbers and thieves. Since october the local currency has lost 70 percent of its value that the banks are still maintaining the official price paid at 1500. 00 lire to the dollar black market prices have surged inflation is soaring there are shortages of food and fuel and unemployment has spiked to 35 percent after an emergency Cabinet Meeting on friday the government promised to stabilize the current say by injecting more dollars into the market but feel. The value of the dollar against the lebanese currency will be reduced as of today but in reality it will not appear before monday 1. 00 will equal less than 4000. 00 lebanese lira and it will go down to 3000 or 3200. But for these protesters this crisis is not a and they want those in power to be held responsible for years of mismanagement and corruption victoria gazin be ill just say are. Well putting most of the head on the news hour including moving with the times are a distraction from the real conversation we look at the growing culture of counseling t. V. Shows and movies with racial overtones. And football returns in italy after 3 months out but its a bad night because john in reality. Right police in london have people not to attend protests in the city amid fears of potential violence between 90 racism demonstrators and far right activists black lives matter supporters gathering for new marches against Police Brutality while far right groups say they intend to protect monuments off the statues were vandalized during previous protests several memorials in Central London have now been boarded up as a precaution and that includes a statue of Winston Churchill lets speak to across one agenda whos standing by there in london so join that we have rival protests going on in london how concerned are the police for the possibility of violence. I think theres a pretty high concern that if these rival demonstrations come into any sort of proximity of one another that there is the chance of violent clashes theres certainly a very visible Police Presence around westminster and Parliament Square where im standing behind me one of the 2 groups has gathered these are the right wing and among them a lot of far right wing supporters who have who have counted demonstrations here against ill step out of the way you can have a closer look counter demonstrations against 2 weeks now of anti racist black lives matter protests that have been going on these groups some of them have traveled down from other parts of the country by coach determined they say not just to put up a front against the. Protesters but also to protect the statues and you can see them gathered there around the statue of Winston Churchill. Well now boarded up after it was defaced last weekend and of course on the other side as you mentioned there the other protests taking place back lives matter theyre making their way towards whitehall from hyde park. And they have been protesting for 2 weeks now initially in solidarity with u. S. Protesters after the killing of george floyd but more recently those protests have taken on a much deeper scrutiny of institutional racism and structural inequalities in this country now fears of violence have been allayed to some extent because black lives matter spokespeople have asked their supporters not to turn out in big numbers this weekend they say they dont want their message diluted by violence the Police Though believe that some numbers still will and so on friday night they came up with very strict conditions on both demonstrations warning people here that they are notionally illegal because of coded 19 social distancing rules but that they would need to take place within these very strict conditions strict routes to be followed the 2 sides would gather later in the afternoon on opposite sides of barriers along whitehall in front of the senate are also bought boarded up after it was last weekend and you know the hope will be that with the curfew in place at 5 pm that all of these people will simply disperse at 5 pm but im afraid the evidence of recent demonstrations suggests that the possibility will certainly exist into the evening violence may still happen general be back with you throughout the course of the afternoon there in london thanks mark. Now then george fords death in the United States last month and spoke to global backlash against brutality and systemic racism but the conversation to a degree is moving beyond the Current Issues to the influences of the past as a result reminders and symbols of colonial history of being torn down and vandalized as weve been hearing a statue of the former british Prime Minister Winston Churchill has been boarded up that took place yesterday ahead of these anti racism protests that janet was just talking about a production of the long running american t. V. Show cops thats being canceled amid claims it glorifies Police Brutality and the Academy Award winning 939. 00 classic gone with the wind thats being really edited to include context around the racially offensive to pick shins of African Americans for the whole thing is a spawn this huge debate the question is is this debate going the right direction thats a question we can ask ashoka whos a contributing editor of navarro media in the u. K. And joins us now from london welcome to the program do you think 1st of all that its right that there is this sudden focus and even taking off their old t. V. Programs and old movies that have these racist elements. Well i would say that its always welcome when we revisit Popular Culture and after questions of it and interrogate it because thats how we achieve societal progress is not by keeping things the same and preserve it and aspect of aspic its about asking those difficult questions however this hasnt been a demand of the black lives Matter Movement in the u. K. Ive been covering these protests since they began not one placards not one chance you know not one t. V. Show mentioned any of these sitcoms and so what weve ended up with is institutions that just still very much white dominated demonstrating their inability to properly engage with the broader aims of this movement they react in a panicky way and our media culture which is just obsessed with talking about itself shumpert on these stories at the expense of the issues which the activists are wanting to talk about right is that how do you think these these institutions should be reacting should be they look be looking not at say whatever program they should take off for or what should stay on to be more committed to say whoring more black stuff. Well absolutely if you look at the british media landscape is about 91 percent white it is not representative of molten diverse burthen and that homogeneity has been reflected in editorial decisions and its not just about race it is also about classes dominates but privately educated people and i would much rather you know looks of these leading Media Players whether its a. B. C. Or whatever sky whether its netflix or whether its any other platform saying ok what were actually going to do is look at our hiring practices look at what we commission and diversify it like that rather than i think up a new front in what is quite frankly the most or in culture war ever but perhaps it should be a focus of the cultural elements of this should be a focus of but lives matter because there is a very real debate in culture isnt there about because culture reflects life after all about what is excess acceptable if you look at it gone with the wind which sentiment sentimentalize is race 3 racism and slavery and then youve got 40 tiles which makes a mockery of racism thats to kind of different entities and its got to be analyzed as. Well i agree with you it certainly should be analyzed and recontextualized the thing about Fawlty Towers for instance is that that racist rant which made it allen goes on its been edited out of most of the repeats for years and was only when u. K. T. V. Took down that particular access addicted the same thing again that there was this few rory which was completely confected so im not saying we shouldnt talk about these things as tall but we should ask ourselves why in particular establishment Media Outlets are much more comfortable talking about those issues rather than things like the way black people are overrepresented when it comes to the prison system or black people are 8 times more likely to have a taste that discharged on them by British Police forces these are much more difficult questions and you know everyone would prefer to talk about you know is Fawlty Towers racist not people dont want to talk about our prison system right and its moving away from the t. V. In the Film Elements of things weve also been focusing on monuments and weve been talking about was in church will start to being boarded up ahead of these riots or the protests that are taking place today i should say what do you make of that. Well it is this way i come from i think all the heritage and every time i try and talk about the bengal famine and Winston Churchills role in it i find myself forced into having to talk about world war 2 and the achievements of Great Britain during that time but every time someone talks about world war 2 theyre not forced into the position of having to talk about the famine and what that reflects is that we have a very very narrow way of understanding history in which the activities of some of these figures whether its Winston Churchill or whether its someone like you know edward colton. That its whitewashed and we tend to memorialize certain figures in order to we can forget some of the things that they really did and it speaks to i think the poverty of the curriculum in this country and that the experiences of formerly colonized people has not been adequately reflected in our Education System or indeed Popular Culture at large you know i grew up thinking that Winston Churchill was like the nations jalili granddad even though as home knowing what the famine was right but its right that he should be stuck to should be protected in case of damage from protests. Well i remember a may day protests this was you know well over 10 years ago now where Winston Churchills statue was defaced that had a mohican placed on it and it had graffiti all around the base and that wasnt seen as a huge culture war issue the fact hed have been boarded up for the 1000000 mom march and movement and buying or protested in Parliament Square and again it wasnt seen as a huge issue now the reason why its being seen as a huge issue now is because its trying to present black clothes matter as this thing which is going to take down and destroy everything we hold there about the National Story rather than asking really pertinent questions about our history so again we might want to think about why we focus on these instances of the statues being boarded up in this way when we havent done that before. Great to talk to you good to get your perspective we do appreciate that from the foreign media thinks well. Now a kind of his Prime Minister says police video of the violence arrest of a prominent indigenous chief is shocking raises questions about the force the dash cam video is being used in a legal challenge to criminal charges filed against chief adam or the police say the use reasonable force of the resisted arrest for an expired license plate in march i think everyone whos seen this video has serious questions about what exactly happened about how it happened this way and about that use of force that we saw thats why were calling for an independent transparent investigation that will get the answers that so many question people are asking right now the events that have been brought to light over the past days highlight that without question there is systemic discrimination within our institutions including within the r. C. M. P. Police in seattle have been ordered to temporarily stop using tear gas and pepper spray to break up peaceful protests 2 week court order comes as rallies against Police Brutality continue in the city demonstrators have also taken over a 6 block area of the city declaring its a Police Free Zone president trumpets threaten to send in military to push the protesters out. All right lets move on to weather rob standing by flooding in front of me yeah yet more of it doesnt seem like junot sauls a huge swirl of clouds you can see i mean this this world has been going for days now starting of a spade now over the bay of biscay its moving slowly those was over this western side of europe france has been hit by flooding 1st of all corsica but as you can see from its rather slow moving line you might think well yeah its raining in eastern france and indeed it is where the low are actually rises its quite hilly country and so does take much rain focus to cause this sort of damage well probably see more pictures of the same tomorrow somewhere else in france the actual fact the main threats probably moving slowly eastwards after the day he goes towards the pope valley and switzerland but again its a big mass of blue and it is dark blue thats fairly heavy rain on the indication that much of europe is affected by rain somewhere another in the western side is kept the temperatures down further east it sort of in how seeing the showers in the form of thunderstorms the most part but sometimes is really are quite surprising take scandinavia for example take the temperature forecast days 27 we get to city right time you get to monday where they have just 20 and the record for this time the year is that 34 well thats nice self is quite surprising now compare it was seville where often its the hottest place in europe were barely creeping up to even the average over the next 3 days all right rob thanks very much unable to later still ahead here on aljazeera the polls parliament considers redrawing the countrys map to include areas under indian control. And this goal for has led the conversation on Racial Justice onto a now hes at the center of his own story thats coming up peter. When the news breaks children who say theyre excited to be back in school but also notice when people need to be heard rockets are currently. Has plenty of food its the kind of feet on food imports had its limitations and nothing pushed this country the focus on it the method of production aljazeera has teams on the ground just because its lawyer doesnt mean it cannot be priced what about the guy that can afford it to bring you more Award Winning documentaries and life. June 19th 67th sixtys there redrew the map of the middle east this week my record of victory of the israeli army in that war was the greatest tragedy in the history of islam 50 years later aljazeera explores the events leading to the war and its consequences which are still felt today we tried everything we went to the United Nations we tried to make. Contacts through Different Countries and it was clear this was the north of the war in june. And again youre watching aljazeera a reminder about top stories this hour and the lockdown has been reimposed in parts of chinas capital after 45. 00 people at a wholesale market tested positive for corona virus whats being called a wartime emergency in beijing has 4 schools to delay reopening following 2 months of no infections brazil is overtaking britain to have the worlds 2nd highest number of covered 19 deaths with a 950 delegates reported on friday raising the total to nearly 42000. 00 brazil is 2nd to the United States with the largest number of infections. Protesters have rallied for a 2nd night in lebanon over the governments handling deepening economic crisis demonstrators through rocks at police who responded with tear gas. In the polls parliament is meeting in an attempt to resolve an ongoing border dispute with india it seeking to approve or revise map in order to ease the conflict strain ties between both countries a new map would incorporate the territory thats now controlled by india into nepals expanded borders and lets speak to Shruti Capello whos elektra in the faculty of modern Indian History at the university of cambridge joins us now from new delhi as he welcome to the program so this new map that has been presented to parliament is in response to a map produced by india each claiming disputed areas why has this flared up now. So earlier in may thank you for having me over earlier in may indeed virtually inaugurated a door which goes straight into china controlled tibet up to the tibetan side of china which goes into as it were the territory that has been claimed by the or as ordinary china has not actually disputed indias claim or has actually not interfered on the matter but you know commission of that rule was strategically linked to china as incursion into. The northern side of the militias which is to say the business daughters of the byelection assume between nepal and india this is very much a story which involves expansionism that were witnessing a new by china in the line of actually talk with india so as a result yes so thats really the context to which this is this as it were a trade in what is the real boundary between india and a cause the degree of staffing with a context how important is china to both nations who depends on china more. But the world the potential for china is good as so that goes without saying but i think what has changed in recent years is that the ball used to be a kind of historic kind of buffer between the 2 as it were great socalled civilization of nations like china and india and the that we are looking into that all has ended with as it were chinese expansionism and as a result this is exactly why even if all of the government is now seeking as attention in the of club india judges are this matter and it always uses the specter of the trends god has always used i think the indians are not biting thats where we are i mean we live the same law we are going to go ahead with this rule ok we have a problem with that weve done those but this is not new because i think indias attention are focused on as i said the story on law and the chinese impulsion there so in a way this is a game of protection and distraction in which is now triangulated between china india and for right it doesnt sound like its a battle that the ball is likely to win i do think the poor can can balance his relations its clear relations between the 2 countries of china and india. Very unlikely and this is why reunions are really or are they at best to simply ignoring what is going to happen in the in the parliament and of course domestically a lot of this government in the fall is not exactly on a strong footing so i think india feels that yes again im going to ignore for the moment it can ignore ignore those complaints by robot but having said that it is also a step change in a historic all relationship or of a special relationship between a foreign india because in a way india has kind of downgraded in part and that the government there are saying going to know we exist we matter because we can look to see if you with china and i think were losing more but really so i think that thats really what this is a brinksmanship is above its about newport seeking attention our problem india and youre saying well weve got other and bigger fish to fry and its ridiculous good to get your perspective appreciate it thank you very much and.
