Indeed a little of history into this 2nd look down the 1st of the nation the way to go for a 2nd nationwide mission such as this and it does as he was saying earlier come at the same time as the julie jewish guy early days the various holidays over the next few weeks the idea is to coincide this lockdown with a time during which many israelis would normally be traveling around the country going from household to household seeing their extended family given the fact that the numbers will already be so troubling well over 5000 new cases a day on several days this week something attributed in part to the fact that schools reopened at the beginning of this month the decision was taken that that had to be this measure imposed to have been at times to try to have more localized restrictions targeted redzone restrictions several weeks ago but that was impracticable for a number of reasons one of which was the fact that among ultraorthodox jewish areas where weve seen some of the highest rates the very politically very politically powerful parties that represent those communities said that they didnt want to see that happen because they are worried about discrimination and so there was this return to a much broader nationwide measure so we have 7000 police and soldiers on the streets trying to enforce it there are real concerns that israelis have been very fed up with contradictionary confusing messages that theyve been getting from the government to try to deal with this pandemic they might simply not follow the measures to the same extent they did 1st time around this year and there were concerns expressed apparently according to local media in the Cabinet Meeting last night that even this given that there are exceptions people being allowed to go a kilometer from the front door instead of 500 meters that was chained just last night netanyahu the Prime Minister talking about withholding me the rights to extend and tight means measures if necessary. In the next few days even not according to the corona virus the commission might only bring the daily interactions down to 1000 a day when the house mistress a need to be brought down to a stars and a day maximum if these measures to be loosened so is what is going into this holiday period and to this new lockdown very uncertain as to how and this will last or exactly what these measures will be happening i will dramatic moves there in israel to try and stop the spread hari thanks very much indeed her for sits in the restroom.

A university in thailand which has a history of political activism and violence is the venue for the latest antigovernment protests planned for saturday the student led movement says for months been calling for new elections and a written constitution when hey reports from bangkok. Am i politics in thailands universities can be a colorful affair parades before events like Football Games are often used to criticize the government or highlight social issues students from thomas at university in bangkok are thailands most politically active and there are again leading protests against the government. But 44 years ago they were at the center of one of thailands darkest moments when when i had to run 2 bullets ahead and saw bullets ricocheting and hitting buildings around me when i tried to leave the campus in 1986 and other students were inside thomas out protesting against the return from exile of a former military ruler. They were surrounded by police and royalists who opened fire killing almost 50 people although other reports put the death toll higher. The Tipping Point was a student play that featured a mock hanging of. The royalists allege he was chosen at the time because he looked like the crown prince whos now thailands king long corn.

They also allege the students are being funded by foreign governments trying to destabilize thailand a form of protest is accused of being communists in 1976 say thats a familiar tactic and are proud the new generation is continuing to fight for change i think that its normal for thomas students to come out and good for them to come out there are problems in our society so i support their movements we need a new driving force to fix those issues.
