Awaiting to be reunited a father whos one of thousands of palestinian separated from his family for months as a result of covert 19. And im here the same for the sport as brazil tackles the 2nd worst outbreak of coronavirus in the World Football returned to the pitch just meters away from a Field Hospital for covert 19 patients. So then a former canadian diplomat and a businessman have been charged with spying in canada and a case set to increase diplomatic tensions between the 2 countries michael coverage is being held in beijing and businessmen michael spadeful was charged in a city near the north korean border theyre accused of spying for state secrets for a foreign entity. Were detained in late 2018 soon after the arrests in canada or of main ones whos a Top Executive of the chinese tech giant while away is shes the daughter of woe is founder and is facing extradition to the United States on fraud charges if a trade with iran and those developments come as a strain as Prime Minister says a state based actor is behind a major cyberattack he wouldnt say but there are suspicions its part of a growing rift with china or lets speak to katrina use live for us in beijing and katrina 1st of all do if this is a formal starts of Legal Proceedings for the 2 men in china what happens next. Thats right so the cases of michael covered and michael stable have now been given to prosecutors in beijing and into the north city northeastern city of leon ng now and this is the 1st step in terms of Legal Proceedings against these 2 men more than 550 days after they were detained in china now according to Chinas Foreign Ministry they face very serious crimes that they said that their birth charged with gathering intelligence and state secrets for Foreign Countries and this is not good news at all before they were formally charged there was a chance will be a small chance that the procurator could have taken this case thrown it out and release these 2 men well it seems that that is not going to happen and analysts say that they could be kept locked up in china for months or even years as their case has been heard and whats further concerning is that we have to remember this is china the court system is not independent here in the vast majority of cases like these are found guilty and if they are found guilty these 2 men could face up to life time in prison now their supporters are understandably distraught they say these men are being kept in very difficult uncomfortable conditions theyre denied access to lawyers and loved ones and theyre only granted one consul a visit per month but what about the timing of this was this move is being seen by some as a tit for tat for the rest of the world executive when one juror. Thats what many see as true men as political pawns in an intensifying spat between the u. S. Canada and china. The canadian government has described their arrest as all the tree now beijing has flat out denied this it says that theres no connection with huawei executive mung window but it is impossible not to draw parallels between these 2 cases. The huawei era she was arrested in canada in december 28th on charges of bank fraud and evading u. S. Sanctions on iran and weeks later these 2 canadians were detained in china mon wonder face court in canada late last month and her case Legal Proceedings to have her extradited to the u. S. Were pushed forward and again here we are less than 4 weeks later and these 2 canadians have their own Legal Proceedings pushed forward as well now china says that there is no connection again that there is solid and sufficient evidence against these 2 men here in china but we also have to take this with a grain of salt because we have to remember what mung one juror means to the Chinese Government and the Chinese People shes portrayed as somewhat of a heroine because of her work with a with this which is chinas biggest tech giant and shes also portrayed as an innocent victim so china is furious about had attention has been pressuring the canadian government to have her release so it could be that these 2 canadian men are being used as leverage to that end or a computer thanks very much for that thats a pitch from beijing to treat the reporting. So strongly as Prime Minister says all levels of government and business in his country could be targeted in a major cyber attack Scott Morrison says a sophisticated state based actor is behind the campaign but he didnt say who he thought the culprit was there is speculation the attacks may be part of a growing rift with china but morrison did not confirm it. What i simply can confirm is there are not a large number of state by state actors that can engage in this type of activity and it is clear by strongly advised that we have received that this has been done by i start by stacked up with very very significant type abilities are the tenor from Nicholas Gage whos in the us Training Camp with cambra and she says the attack is widespread. From health and education through to Critical Infrastructure organize ations and this is something that the Prime Minister says is happening more frequently and on a lot just scale and he said the reason why he was announcing it to the public wasnt to concern them but to say for all of those organizations they should be making sure that they have the Critical Infrastructure in place to thwart an attack but of course the big question here is who is behind this and already many analysts are pointing to the potential of china being the likely source of these threats interesting lee much of the rhetoric from Scott Morrisons press conference seem to be more aimed at the International Community rather than the astray in public he was saying that it needs to protect its soul frontier its National Interest and he stopped short of bringing china into this he said that he wouldnt be saying who the government thought was behind this but of course this comes at a time of heightened tensions between camera and beijing they have been trade issues in the Agricultural Sector where the beijing and Chinese Government has been putting trade sanctions on bali imports so interesting way this is really raising the focus on beijing and a strike relationship even though we dont know who was behind this attack david vaile is lauren Data Protection specialist in the law faculty of the university of New South Wales in australia and he says this attack is on unlikely to be isolated. Its aimed at the moment to have been preparatory a sort of a probing a text trying to identify public facing web services theres a particular tool that its been identified called tarryl tell rick at the front end of certain sorts of websites this is so its not really designed to do anything in particular at the moment its designed to get into to find where the the chinks in the where the Access Points and particularly experimental or Testing Services or old ones things that nobodys really looking after too closely and once thats done they try to steal the credential so they can come in through the front door posing as someone legitimate and all of this looks like its a preparation for something lighter on the other hand it is also sending a message that its. While its not easy to attribute. Im sure the people in teligent services and government more confident about where its coming from and it is in that sense potentially sending a message the man in charge of south koreas relationship with north korea has quit saying he wants to take responsibility for recent tension km young tool was appointed in april last year leave the job without having a single meeting with the North Koreans and tuesday pyongyang in the a zone building after threatening military action its been fueled by activists sending propaganda into the north of. The Nigerian Military says it killed several high ranking boko haram leaders in a series of airstrikes on a village in the northeast the settlement was reportedly being used as a Training Ground for fighters and its become an interesting study by for us in the 1st up and tell us more about these air strikes. Well basically the strikes were carried out over the course of 2 days after days of surveillance according to the military and they were sure that the leaders of boko haram fighters who were there at the compound when it was struck as well as several fighters were also using the surroundings Training Ground in the community or the villages on the fringes of the somebody so for us to know whats interesting by the way this information was released by the Nigerian Military on the day the nigerian president met with all heads of security agencies from the Army Navy Air force the police and the intelligence agencies where he was quoted as saying he was not happy with the way the Security Operations in the country were going to remember that not only the book why dont fight in the northeast of the country but also the budgetary attacks in the northwest of the country where in the last 2 months hundreds of people have been killed now the military said they were sure that they have gotten very value very high value target as they put it in that compound and that the information they got after the attacks were completely completed was that several of such leaders of been killed probably attending a meeting nic. This fall in the context of this is it follows a spate of boko haram attacks in the Nigerian Government to military face ongoing criticism of the inability their inability to lay to rest the threat posed by boko haram why do they present such a challenge. As. Well basically there are several factors 1st of all for years the nigeria this is the 10th year by the way this is more than 10 years the Nigerian Military has been fighting boko haram in the a symmetrical warfare system and the military is been stretched across nigeria the army is been dealing with saw many fights across the country now just 36 states and the army is involved in putting down violence or tags or clashes in at least 30 states and this country and how many are there i mean soldiers who are there to deal with this problem and over the years weve seen how book has become bolder and bolder and theyve gotten more weapons and they were attacking the military and there were also the questions of Government Spending on the military a lot of people feel that not enough resources is going to into the into the book or on fight others feel that so much has been spent for the military its just a matter of the effective management of such resources but basically a lot of nigerians think that the military is overstretched and really underfunded that is also the question of whether or not the tactics being used by the military is enough to deal with the problem all d it needs a new set of hands to deal with the problem weve seen over the last 10 years how book or arm has spread from borno state into several states until 2015 when the spread of this violence has been contained and then right now weve seen how theyre growing bolder and theyve also spread into neighboring countries nick herbert thanks for that just reporting from boots i think you. Plenty more still ahead on the news including. I think we are in the middle of the season. As great a virus infections in brazil approach 1000000 former Health Minister tells aljazeera at the peak of the pandemic is still a long way off. The marino will face his old club in the 1st round of premier League Matches back after the current suspension he will have that story and more in sport. State my pump has accused former National Security adviser john bolton of being a traitor hes reacting to boltons new book which says that President Trump tried to enlist the help of foreign leaders to win reelection boltons now being targeted on social media his use unusually Strong Language in a series of tweets he accused bolton of spreading lies and outright falsehoods and labeled him a traitor on pay went on to criticize him for violating the Peoples Trust and damaging america well the legal battle over the book is now in a federal court trying to ministration asking for a temporary restraining order to prevent its release but bolton is asking the court to dismiss the case the speaker of the u. S. House of representatives thats not surprising she said that allegations in the book prove that trump is unfit to serve an official reports now from washington d. C. From the white house a mixed reaction to the impending release of the john bolton book from the president a tweet both in this book which is getting terrible reviews is a compilation of lies and made up stories all intended to make me look bad from his press secretary a different approach the book is full of classified information. A misguided hawk on Foreign Policy and. There is despicable that he chose to publish this book without fully going through the review process from his top traded visor. A personal attack by the its the washington swamps equivalent of revenge he got fired because he did not obey the chain of command because his views were totally out of sync with the president down jay trump with respect to how to how to handle International Fairs john boltons been working on the book for months the president s long serving handpicked National Security adviser was present during key moments of the Trump Presidency the summit with north korea and singapore the meeting with russian president Vladimir Putin in finland g 7 g 20 a need to gatherings around the world bolton says trump is easily flattered by authoritarian leaders who try to manipulate him and americas Strategic Interests are less important than winning reelection in a longer interview to iran american t. V. This weekend he says donald trump isnt fit to be president i dont think hes fit for office so i dont think he has the competence to carry out the job there really isnt any guiding principle that i was able to discern other than whats good for Donald Trumps reelection borton was called to give evidence from Congress Held impeachment hearings but donald trump he took legal steps to avoid doing that the democratic leader of the house of representatives says hes no hero telling his stories no President Trump is clearly ethically unfit and intellectually unprepared to be the president of the United States that doesnt seem to matter to the republicans and the United States senate didnt seem to matter to john bolton he chose royalty over lot over patriotism the Trump Administration is taking legal action to stop publication of the book which is due to hit the shelves on tuesday but there are many copies already in circulation and its rare for the court to issue such injunctions in the next few weeks another book on trump is expected to be published its written by his niece who is also a psychologist and its expected also to be highly critical of the president alan fischer aljazeera at the white house. Brazils Education Minister has resigned as tension grows between the president john bolton are the supremes quarter of an investigation into this Information Campaign Abraham Weintraub is one of several both sonora allies being investigated by the court over an alleged network aimed at discrediting the countrys democratic institution. Didnt say why hes stepping down but hes faced weeks of criticism since video emerged in which he called for Supremes Court judges to be locked up. Brazil is on the verge of reaching 1000000 infections from cavan 19 its former Health Minister. That who was fired by president wilson are for refusing to prioritize the economy of a Public Health its told our desire the pandemic is still far from its pick a lot of American Adults at least in human spoke to him about the soaring infections and the president s threat to follow Donald Trumps lead and pull out of the. I think that we are in the middle of the pandemic season we have a country though its a really a continent and we have some cities there are really went through the problems once in the middle tide and other ones that didnt start yet so i think that we will go till september. So i wonder you will work with him so closely how much of his decisions do you think are influenced by his friend President Donald Trump of the United States theyre very close and theyre trying to to follow one too but some are followers trump. Cheney was automatic writing next week that group said he started saying the same thing here i dont think that he really thinks on doing the media trump thinks im doing that because you know. You you get all be on the right there wont have to discuss this new tools for the war Health Organization remodeler modernizing but the countries there. If the countries are not sitting on the same table to make this discussion the ones that are not said there will not be able to are you so you dont think that theyre going to go through with it they were not dropped has an election and the 2nd semester both sides are hesitant to go 22 so as soon as trump passes for his election no matter the result if he loses a lot of states want to do it if he wins the United States wont do it so well so now its probably going to change his position also but right now hydroxide chloroquine is on the protocol for all brazilians who go to Public Hospitals with cold 19 in a country as large as brazil how concerned how much of a concern is that i think its a big concern because we dont know 1st we dont know if it works and the 2nd is that we dont know if it harms people. I think that. Love and well have for it is a she made a mess weve the big day they release the paper and one week later they took the paper because they didnt take the right measures to publish it so now theyre were going to have to wait but as soon as you get to a place where there really shows that he has no benefit and what im worried is if it shows that he hires and he brings more problems than solutions you feed. People dying from a stroke or heart there i think were going to have many many people suing the government for doing that. Now that may occur out of our eyes pandemic is overwhelming Health Care Systems across the globe and that strain is taking a huge toll on people suffering from other illnesses a new study predicts 10000 more deaths in the United States from breast and colon cancer in the next decade and thats because the response to the pandemic is kind of allies in resources from Cancer Screening and treatment the world Health Organization has found most countries have had to partially or completely disrupt Rehabilitation Services more than 40 percent of the globe seen disruptions to cancer treatments and Health Services for cardiovascular emergencies such as heart attacks well theyve been the railed in nearly a 3rd of countries as troubling statistics that speak not to doubt the bent mickelson whos a director of the department of noncommunicable diseases at the world Health Organization epi say that she joins us now from geneva dr tend to this is a very real problem that will just emerge more more after we come out of covert 19 just lay out how serious this is for us. So thank you for having me and of course as you mention noncommunicable diseases cancer diabetes heart diseases lung diseases is already before depend make the biggest killer of devolved i mean 41000000 dice and every year so cold weve 1000 came as an amplifier so we have seen very severe disruption of Health Care Systems or services in all countries 159 countries are survey during may and shows exactly this is the reason what youre saying is as far as cancers concerns of cancers are being missed now but they will certainly come to light eventually of a later stage. The prognosis then will be worse of course went to. So what we see specifically for cancer and as i said all of these services are disrupted but specifically for cancer we see that it of course varies with the face that the countrys is in so when you look at those with sporadic cases we have around 40 percent disruption and then that increase of course as we go through the community in gauge went off the virus where we see up to 53 percent i would say that most countries are doing reasonable choices in the very difficult situation so its 1st Population Based screening that is affected and then of course we see the lace in treatment many places we have reports that countries are trying to really make this as scientifically as they can and of course we know that the delays in treatment for Cancer Patients varies very much in what kind of cancer what kind of state and so on our general advice is that we need to try to avoid as much delays as possible and of course i think the whole situation proves that we need to include in noncommunicable diseases also much more heavily into the National Response and prepared us plans during pandemics but also to strengthen the Health System in general ok and what about patients themselves because its not only the Health Care Systems that the patients themselves who may have developed symptoms but would have been too worried or too troubled by the coronavirus demick to attend a doctor what would you say to them now. 1st of all they need to keep in touch with the Health Care System even if they cannot travel even if they are not receiving the the usual treatment because the Health Care System that doctors need to help them to really try to receive as much help as possible from medicines and to other things and we have seen very nice examples most countries are actually know using telemedicine as a mitigation for face to face and we also see good examples like in kyrgyzstan very we have hospitals working with patients trying to really Institute New ways of treatment with telemedicine and other things so its very important that the Cancer Patients still contact the Health Care System that theyre not afraid of seeking help because we have seen a lot of this information as well people are not they dont theyre to go to the hospital and also try through their Nongovernmental Organization the Patient Organization to seek as much as wise advice as possible or it will leave it there for now we do appreciate your time thank you very much for that. Mickelson from the world Health Organization thank you. All right telis move on to weather after news of flooding in west africa yeah im afraid so i make this the seasonal rains of course we need them but when they do combine often cause the floods and the mudslides she can see the little clusters of clout there across central parts of africa were near the summer solstice of course so the showers i rip out says far north as they theyre going to get a lot a little bit further north over the next few days but just a handful of days away from the sun reaching the tropic of cancer also clouds showing up there have been drifting their way further west was on those easterly waves and this was the scene in ivory coast where we seem to wrench will rainfall and that has caused flooding just around abidjan there as you can see and we are looking at for the dampest as we go on through the next couple of days also rain showing up there from the 13 highlands shrike through the gulf of guinea across a good parts of west africa i shall as may well even not up a little further north woods towards senegal as we go through the next couple of days on the other side of africa you can see clearer skies just around the horn of africa not too much in the way of any wet weather coming in here over the next day or so thats because we got the southwest monsoon thats that wind drifting across the arabian sea towards india bringing in the its much needed rain so showers will continue just around that western side of a theo pia as we go through the next couple days just keep your eye on this wet weather just down towards the coast fringes of tanzania that could cause flooding here next week nick thanks very much thank you still ahead here on out is the u. S. Investigates a millage plot to assassinate the American Peace envoy to afghanistan plus. Its heartbreaking but i think that theres also a tremendous sense of inspiration in. His weeks of protests turn the spotlight on an unofficial holiday marking the end of slavery in the United States. And the worlds top go for the struggle for the rusted in south carolina. Thats a detail thats coming up its for. The brazilian journalist investigating a politically section of land grab all the farmers helped get also not elected and hes repay them thats empowering everyday people to profit from the destruction of the rain forest people are almost willing to give their life away to guarantee the occupation of the lands is journalism the last hope in the fights of the of the amazon the says not only a land conflict but a conflict a narrative brazil the age of boston are all whose truth is it anyway on aljazeera. The plight of the Syrian People and the violence they enjoy is plain for all to see. But behind closed doors an unspeakable brutality inflicted on the women. From the brave few who survived a massive loss and dignity and dad to town the tampa. Silent war eyewitness documentary on out is iraq. But again youre watching our dear reminder of our top stories this hour and china has for me file charges of espionage against 2 canadians former diplomats michael covert and businessman michael spadeful been held since 2018 arrest has been seen as tit for tat response by beijing after kind of at the time why wait a 2nd of my one job. As straight as Prime Minister says the country is being targeted by a sofa. Dictated cyberattack Scott Morrison stopped short of saying whos behind it the fact is having all levels of Government Central services and Critical Infrastructure. The Nigerian Military says its killed several boko haram leaders in a series of airstrikes on a village in the northeast of the country itself and it was reportedly being used as a Training Ground for fighters. All right lets get more on our top story the spying charges against those 2 canadians and china because we now to steve simon whos the director of the China Institute at Soas University of london joins us on skype from not him steve welcome to the program seems pretty evident this is a tit for tat situation. It is very much tact situation but i will go a bit further i think it is really demonstrating how important wall boy actually company. To the Chinese Government they are prepared to go shall bar to support. Right and so what is the process now in terms of the Legal Proceedings and how long will it take and what chance is there of things developing the being any kind of a political exchange. Well the Chinese Government clearly has taken to think about how to respond. Case was being confirmed in man cool last month once the Legal Process has been trigger. Then the chinese judicial process can be quite slow still that they can actually track it all for a year or 2 and the chances that they probably will because what they were too much to do to michaels depends on what happens to their people. In the bank and whether she will be sent to the United States to appraise trial. In which case i think it will michaels are going to be expecting a long sentence do you think that is how it will pan out or could it be that this is. That moment of proceedings against the 2 canadians in china will actually force the hand encounter and in United States to change things as far as they were incidents and say. Well the canadian tradition is an independent one sole nobody can know what the canadian courts will do they have in the 1st instance. Consider the extradition case to the United States to be valid the chinese are trying other ways to. Make that not happened and if the chinese were successful in preventing a mound Funding Center United States to face trial i think it will microchip will probably be released some ways will be found to do so but you. Were to be sensitive to unite his face to face trial then it to canadians will simply be punished for the acts of the canadian courts in vancouver chinese having it into disarray they dont understand. Some accord middle is not as this larger geopolitical game thats happening between china i mean are the states and its these 2 canadians are paying the price is that right. Well very much so but in the case of the can in the case of canada they have to respect their own judicial process so the fact that they have been caught in the middle is very unfortunate but really the canadian government does not have to sculpture to tout the cult in British Columbia watch to do or what not to do if you get the call to make bengal that will not follow that anyway interesting or at the seaside will have to leave it there be appreciate your expertise thank you very much you know welcome.

Charities say the existing cash allowance and a ban on work of left them more vulnerable than ever lawrence lee has this report now from london.

Pick out for us to pay for all that youre needs to tours for guys experiences are the norm for Asylum Seekers in britain recently we met up with binny and eritrean who delivers food to refugees in the northern town of middlesboro he told us hed found a woman who hadnt eaten for 17 days and was on the point of starving to death when you have an age of 70 you have to be confined into a 4 by 4 meters wall sharing a house with another 3 people from different cultures and nationalities on top of that you have got arthritis hellish conditions.

D. Us standard on the farm boy it sure aint got their c. D. s to take this to a conclusion but depending on what kind of investigation its got it out what they us find out and worked out fine government did a pretty good shit with the us i fight addicted to video games your vote is going so yeah we should see how that pans out of the time being thanks a lot. Especially for him thats focused on strengthening to democracies across the world is set to take place for actually this year the copenhagen democracy summit will include leaders and academics from various countries and we spoke to the chairman of the forum for when nato boss and his firearms and who explained more about whats expected from the meeting. 1st of all we have facing an external. Threat to all pressure from advantage or top priss to die china and by russia and other talk says and we also we go to faced with an internal challenge from forces in our law own countries that stocks to doubt the strength of our Democratic Values i think its quite clear that when the u. S. Retreats they would leave behind a vacuum and that vacuum would be fear by the bad guys and thats active you walk were witnessing right now hooting see you paying. A satin or dallaire autocrats have got a bigger room of a maneuver so we need at words policeman to restore International Law and order and i dont see any other candidate for that road than they were nice it states the United States should be the leader of the free would not only a north america and europe but we should reach out to other big and strong democracies like india australia. Japan south korea in new zealand and other democracies we need and not a dimes of democracy is to strengthen the valise act against the advantage our tucker says we have seen that democracies have been much better to handle the call corona crisis and then autocracy is we should learn from that we shouldnt continue those our thora teryn. Measures but actually give more freedom back to people than government took from them.
