Tayyip erdogan confirms the deaths of 2 soldiers deployed to libya and Global Support continues to be impacted by the corona Virus Outbreak with rugby 6 places and now under threat and remembering a basketball legend kobe bryants widow vanessa leads the tributes at the Memorial Service and off hand. But the rise in corona virus threats in china and a sharp increase in infections a stalking fears that the Global Spreads of the outbreak is entering a new phase iraq has now banned travelers from 7 countries after reporting its 1st case on monday among the banned countries is iran its confirms 15 deaths but has denied reports that the talk could be much higher bahrain afghanistan kuwait and some arent. All reports its infections now in europe italian authorities have sealed off the worst affected towns in the north of the country 7 people have died there and more than 200 are infected the highest concentration outside asia at least 10 people have died in south korea where there are almost a 1000 cases there and u. S. Forces are considering scaling back military exercises as for china numbers of new infections in areas outside of province are falling bunts there have been another 71 deaths mostly in the epicenter we have correspondents in all the affected regions from baghdad to saw the 1st lets start with adrian brian he is in hong kong for as china is throwing everything they can at this i break are there any signs that its starting to come under control. Well the death rate on monday was 71. 00 now that is one of the lowest rates weve had for for many many days so that is the positive but i think looking at the wider picture the World Health Organization says as well what is happening now is what it fears most of virus spreading faster than the efforts to contain it now the w. H. O. Has said that you know its not prepared to declare a pandemic just yet but it fears that many countries are unprepared should that scenario happen and its that sort of talk that has been unsettling investors across asia the nikkei index in tokyo opened more than 3 percent down on choose day some stocks are being hard hit like toyota or the car manufacturer thats because it relies on chinese suppliers and of course many chinese factories remain closed and that is disrupting the Global Supply chain but investors are also worried about Something Else china is a driver of Economic Growth but its also got a lot of consumption Chinese People are big spenders they have a burgeoning middle class but that burgeoning middle class simply isnt travelling or spending like they normally would at the moment but economists also argue that actually if this virus is brought under control hopefully soon then there will be a rebound because of all that pent up demand now across the border in china where as we say the latest death rate has gone up by 71 there are reports in state media that china might begin testing a vaccine soon state media reports that a professor at te engine university has been testing this virus hes had it for all doses with no side effects but a lot of experts warn of course that you know it could be many months before a vaccine is developed and once it is there would have to be months. Trials Clinical Trials to determine its safe and of course effective ok thank you very much indeed jim brown reporting from hong kong lets cross to saul where we can join rob mcbride rob quite a large outbreak in south korea but most of the cases are sensing rains the city of daegu what can you tell us. Thats right i mean underscoring the sense of urgency now here in south korea the countrys president moon j. N. Has been visiting this tuesday daegu the it is at the epicenter of this outbreak 2 large clusters there account for the vast majority of all the cases hes been seeing for himself the work being done there and echoing the message that weve been hearing from his officials his ministers that this week really is a crucial time in the battle to contain this outbreak the hope is that all these measures put in place will be able to keep the outbreak in this southeast corner of of south korea but the concern is of course that if it fails and we should know in the next few days then its almost as though the government is accepting that this is reading that it could potentially be spreading in communities throughout the country the government has committed more personnel both military and from the police to helping in the controlling efforts but also there we are hearing about a shortage of medical staff on the medical staff who are there on the front lines in the Testing Centers and in the highly Infectious Disease wards really are working around the clock the countrys Prime Minister is now basing down there to try to lead the efforts and the hope is that the other cases we have seen around the country have been individual ones but there are reports of a couple of other clusters emerging one in busan which is south koreas 2nd city again in a Church Congregation 23 victims there and also in a clinic just north of daegu where a total of 22 people have become infected both staff and patients and this was out of a total number thats a 3rd of the people who were in the clinic so it gives you an idea of just how contagious this outbreak is so very anxious days ahead for south korea ok rob mcbride there in sort. Thank you very much see that of course the highest concentration of cases science ovation is in a silly ill just heres mamma john june joins us from there could join you in the north of the country just bring us up to date on the laces send just give us a sense of the impact this site break is having on people in italy. Just in the past few moments reports have emerged several attalia Media Outlets but there are now 271. 00 cases of coronavirus that have been diagnosed in italy that would be another huge spike last night we were the number was at around 229. 00 now thats not exactly surprising considering the fact that italian officials in the past 24 hours have said that italian citizen should expect there to be more cases being detected and they believe thats because there are proactive measures by Health Officials being taken out to diagnose new cases now just now we are standing on a road that leads to could dont you know we are in a town called her lets go about 8 kilometers north of could only as you see behind me there are security vehicles they will not let cars pass into that area which is one of these 2 red zones in northern italy unless they have permission to do so in the past 15 minutes weve seen 2 ambulances emerge from that road heading south we assume to take patients to hospitals that we have not got much information from the officials here but it really goes to show just how much alarmed there is right now about the growing number of cases the town of could dont you know as i mentioned which is about 8 kilometers from where we are right now that is the center of the outbreak in northern italy that is where the 1st locally transmitted case of the infection was found a 38 year old man who works for union lever its not yet known how he caught the coronavirus there was one person who was suspected of being patient 0 here in italy a colleague of this man who had been to china recently but he had been quarantined and tested and he tested negative for the virus so there is a real chase right now. In italy to try to find who exactly patient 0 is how the virus started here in northern italy a lot of containment measures being put in effect here in northern italy the officials that ive been speaking out over the course of the past 2448 hours have said that these measures are being put in place because they want to make sure that the virus does not spread any more and but the thing is that in the past 24 hours theres also been some tensions that have been rising between the Prime Minister who in the last 24 hours had blamed the hospital for the outbreak and there was another am in for just the just went by but also you have officials here in northern italy who interpreted the remarks by the Prime Minister just at the quantity as blaming hospitals in this region of lombardy and they hit back saying it was not their fault so there is some tensions its really going to be interesting to see how this plays out at a time when officials here are trying to contain the spread of the virus but also when more cases are expected to be discovered in the coming days hala ok mama june live for us and northern its a fact lets say cross back to the middle east but cross into my office and in baghdad for rob more cases are being announced in iraq and its the authorities in iraq are taking this very very seriously indeed not just the authorities but religious leaders to just bring this up to speed with whats happening where you are. Well were hearing this morning that there are now 4 cases of corona virus which have been confirmed in the Northern Province of code cook thats in addition to the one case of could own a virus which was noted in the Western Province of nut jeff about 24 hours ago we understand that there are 13 people who are quarantined in just that one case was an a rainy and elderly man who had been visiting the shrine of. The time so we also understand that are for people who have been quarantined in wa seat province to the east and as you said the Iraqi Government is no whitening the scope of its preparations and its prevention control saying that people should do a ward should of void crowded today areas they should avoid any and unnecessary as they call it conferences or celebrations there are also suggesting that not just schools and universities should be closed for about 10 days and theyre warning against any Domestic Travel in and out of not just essentially not officially but essentially trying to seal off not jeff which was one of the primary areas as i mentioned for this this outbreak iraq has also extended its ban to non iraqis traveling from countries like iran and china but all the also all the other countries which have recorded cases of coronavirus now this morning we were done in that Tucker Square here in baghdad following calls for a 1000000 person march which was to have been held to in parts market for months of protests of 4 months of antigovernment protests which have been going on in iraq but the numbers there were very small we saw perhaps a couple of 100 people who were prepared to demonstrate but the numbers as i say very small no that could have been partly because here in baghdad it has that weve had torrential rain the weather has actually been very bad for the past few hours but there were also flyers. Being handed out by some of the organizers of that march warning against the dangers of the spread of coronavirus and warning people that perhaps they should not take part in the protests for the sake of their health interesting way the leading shia cleric walked out of a saga said shortly after that that he too was warning people to stop protests to avoid coming together and run running the risk of damaging their health he did tweet that after it became apparent that there was nobody of the very few people were turning up at the protests in Tahrir Square but one of the things that will be concerning the iraqi medical authorities is that unlike in other areas where there appear to have been specific areas of concentration where cases have been found these latest cases seem to be spread across 3 provinces in the country and they are quite a distance apart so they will be watching very clear carefully to see where the next cases start to develop as well we rob matheson live for us in the iraqi capital thank you very much not all mon and the United Arab Emirates have suspended some transport channels with iran over the growing number of coronavirus cases there lets bring in us a big who is in the iranian capital assad we had a lot of confusion about the the death tool on monday night we were seeing these travel bans being enforced just bring us up to speed to whats happening at the moment. Well the latest figures now from the Health Ministry here is that 95 people are infective infected and 15 people have died so thats 34 new cases and 3 more dead in the last 24 hours now president rouhani has been speaking this morning and he seemed to downplay the spread of the virus all hes trying to calm people down now what he said was that the spread of the chrono virus is not as bad as the spread of the through virus of the country has faced in the past you acknowledge that it was different but he said that people should follow the Health Ministry advice and not panic but that rao the extraordinary beef between that member of parliament for. The and the Health Ministry continues now that parliamentarian the yesterday said that the death toll was 50 he criticised the government to make the scathing attack on the government saying that the performance had been 0 that nurses dont have the right uniforms and the fearful of treating the pay are fearful of treating patients you call in the Health Minister to put the city of the epicenter of the virus virus spread under quarantine and today he said how does a Health Ministry deny the people that are being buried in the cemeteries of course and he went on to claim that doctors income are documenting the deaths as dying from tree problems when the Health Ministry full well knows that these individuals are coming out of the chroma virus quarantine wards of the hospital thats whats he said here in the her interesting more people Wearing Masks more people wearing because of schools in universities remain closed football matches concerts any public gatherings are still canceled people are worried people are scared there isnt a state of panic but people are questioning the official account and iran is increasingly finding itself isolated coate iraq afghanistan pakistan of close the borders. We here in the u. A. E. Has stopped passenger cargo planes amman has closed their ports to iran and theres only a few ways out of the country and many people inside iran are heading to the north of the country to get away from the major cities ok outside big bring us all the latest from iran thank you theres lots more still to come on the new siren creating a landmark route for the new 2 movement Harvey Weinstein find guilty.

Following this as its been going on for the last 36 hours another set of speeches today what were the main takeaways from those.
