So that an explosion has hit a convoy carrying sudans Prime Minister and what the government has described as an assassination attempt adela was traveling through called to when there was a roadside blast the vehicle he was in was damaged as well as several others government says it was a targeted attack investigations are underway to try the term in who thats responsible. For that was that ill be the Prime Minister and the convoy members were not injured they are all safe except one person who fell from about a cycle of the Prime Minister is doing his job now from his office and investigations underway we know that there are people who are trying to target the revolution of the sudanese people and to attack the gains of the revolutionaries but we stress that revolution is going on at the revolution will continue its path. Lets speak to him organise life in khartoum what more do you have for us. Well at the moment what we know is what we heard from the Government Spokesperson the minister of information someone might solve it who gave more information about the attack we know that there was an explosion from a car bomb that was next to or nearby the convoy of the Prime Minister and that he was an injured along with his staff except for one of the members of the more to kate now we also heard from the government spokesman spokesperson that there was shooting at the convoy following the explosion and this is raising a lot of questions about the security that was with the Prime Minister during his movement from there which is not very far from his office just a few kilometers people are wondering why there was a car that was loaded with explosives mirrored by the convoy we know that usually the motorcade is theres usually a Traffic Police officer that goes ahead followed by a convoy and theres usually some distance maintained between the motorcade and the convoy of the Prime Minister and that no other car is allowed near it so people are wondering how this Security Breach happened and why was the idea of the security detail of the Prime Minister very slow to respond but weve also seen the office of the Prime Minister tweeting out pictures of him in the office and him with several members of his cabinet there is currently an emergency meeting of the security and Defense Council thats the body that is responsible for the security situation in the country and theyre holding an emergency meeting to discuss the attack which the office of the Prime Minister says isnt assassination attempt and deemed it as a terrorist attack. Clearly being a time of great instability and huge amount of pressure on the economy given the context of this war. Well over the past few weeks think weve seen people lining up for fuel weve seen people lining up for bread as well and weve seen the economy in a downward spiral the inflation has been rising the value of the sudanese pound against the dollar has been dropping making it very hard for many people to afford basic commodities that has resulted in a lot of frustration now whats not clear is if that frustration is enough for anyone to try to attempt to take out the Prime Minister whos just 6 months in his job so people are wondering who is responsible especially because no side has yet claimed responsibility but there are a lot of people in the country who are currently discontented with the situation there is also the former ruling party were repeatedly put out statements saying that this Transitional Government does not represent sudan and is illegal and that they will try to oust it in any ways or means possible so a lot of questions about who could be behind the assassination attempt of the office of the Prime Minister and the governments book says that they are investigations currently ongoing but so far north side has claimed responsibility and nobody has been accused or have of thanks very much indeed who are more than reporting. Its only reported a big jump in the number of coronavirus cases. A quarter of its population comes into full force 133 new deaths have been confirmed the number of fractions has doubled since friday to nearly 7400 so in the year you begin to recover. A city deserted a region under lockdown milan italy economic heart is almost unrecognizable hardly anyone in the shopping malls its famous square as the army keeps watch over an almost surreal situation this is an unprecedented crisis in this countrys recent history were not because thats what youre going to me what is happening in my city is worrying me and its also saddening because milan is a lively city and see it like this today is almost a defeat for me i never would have thought this would happen. Me lance my parents are airport has now suspended all flights its neighboring airport now restricted to running only domestic flights but that hasnt stopped people attempting to get away. Fearing further contagion leaders of italy southern regions have warned hundreds of thousands of its citizens who went to work or study in the north of the country not to return home but groups of people continue to arrive from milan arriving with their masks on but there was no one to test them for covert 19 the harsh restrictions are designed to slow down the spread of the disease but there are fears that it may be too little too late hospitals in the affected region have been inundated and sick residents are now being asked to stay at home stretched Health Care System is struggling to keep up with the increasing numbers there are no more valuable bats in hospitals and actually the current hospital which serves about 500000 people in all the area of course in this little 1000 doctors got infected so there are nor more intensive care but its available away from italy there were further increases of the virus all over the continent in france at least 900 people have died from the virus with more than 1100 cases recorded in the country last italys lockdown is the most stringent outside of china containment may have come too late for some areas slowing down the virus is spread may be the best option for now on a diagonal aljazeera. We just heard from for interest the border whos an italian journalist. Lets hear from her again and i was on a long border which is in lockdown explaining how the quarantine is affecting locals. Well now im in front of one of the 2 bake it east which are still working as you can see probably behind needs start early empty and according to the new city particularly you will see only 3 customers can enter the time so if i stay inside bicycle the id lock the entrance because we must keep away from each other i mean one metre from each other this is the minimum safety distance so whatever it will be harder we should wear a mask if we speak to each other and we should stay when needed it least from each other and then you know everything is closed bicycle about easy size and just really signal i was waiting for your call and then ambulance came and just you know just to take your way in all the man in this street and less suddenly you know everybody everybodys looking from from the windows you know everybodys scared and the average age of the day we have soared so thats the main issue i mean we continue to speak about this rate of the virus but it seems that out west to say you know whats more than one mortality rate the according to to the age of the population so the elder least particularly strong vice well is a case is climb in europe china is reporting a fall its just her 40 new conformations continuing what has been a steady drop over the past few days katrin e. U. Is in beijing. To 40 new cases in 22 deaths thats the lowest some of the lowest numbers weve seen since this outbreak really started to pick up steam at the end of january in china more than 80000 people have been infected but Health Authorities say that most of those people have been cured and there are only about 20000 people now who are being treated for the current virus in hospital still 5000 people or so are in Critical Condition but its definitely a positive picture and were starting to see real concrete evidence of that change in this positive improvement in the epicenter of who bay province itself now there was at one point thousands of people being diagnosed every day about 2000 people on some days and of course because of that huge demand on the Hospital System in will hand they had to create all these makeshift hospitals with 14 makeshift hospitals were created including one called the living room which accommodated 1700 patients now 11 of those have now suspended operations or have been closed because there are not enough patience so obviously thats a good sign weve also heard today that there was a leak to document from ruhani airport and the rising stuff to be ready to go back to work on march 10th now we have to remember there was a complete lockdown in the city of will han nobody could get in and out that means no trains and no flights so this is a sign that theyre not necessarily going to stop flights on march 10th but would one airport is starting to think about getting up and running again which is a very big sign. Well the spread of corona virus to more than 90 countries has brought concern about the effect on the Global Economy and now adding to the uncertainty a plummets in oil prices they fell around 30 percent on monday and thats the biggest fall in almost 30 years 3 decades and thats amid a price war between saudi arabia and russia moscow refusing to join a plan by major Oil Producing nations aimed at cutting output and maintaining prices and stock markets across asia where theyve continued to fall continuing the sell off that began 2 weeks ago and billions of dollars has been wiped off european markets just hours after opening with the u. K. Footsie 100. 00 index losing almost 9 percent of its value or danger motto is a senior partner at control risks asia pacific and he says the losses on asian markets came as no surprise. I think its probably not unexpected given the edge of the sharp fall and the major model of the price of oil over night its a bit kind of ironic or counterintuitive because almost every asian market is an Energy Importer so actually when the price of oil falls they do better their trains terms of trade improve and their cost of production drops so i suspect what this really was was kind of a delayed reaction to a fear of Global EconomicGlobal Economic economic shock as a result of the virus weve already seen in some markets like north america a lot of volatility in markets down quite a bit one day up the next day which is i think kind of not again not unexpected for a situation where you know its a new situation people arent used to dealing with it or havent dealt with it for a very long time and so you get that kind of volatility i think one of the things that we see in this region in asia is people really Companies Really coming to grips with what their supply chain looks like several steps back so they now realize that oh maybe they didnt think they were exposed to china but actually they were because a key component is made there and maybe wasnt able to get out or maybe the factory has been shot for longer than theyve ever experienced before and then i also saw since asia was kind of the leader the leader in this you know it hit struck asia 1st and now just sort of slowly started to come out of it there are some that are also starting to think about recovery so what does recovery look like will we be able to get the parts and the just ticks that we need when these economies start to recover. So there are knowledge is there a dispute over a long standing different senators in the philippines on a collision course with the president. Eleanor it does seem a little early for the spring rains you might think it not really being spring but as mass is a cloud over china there is snow confined to the funnels and most of this blue maize rain has been significant on its way through chinas more significant through japan i mean tuesday is a particularly wet day and given that youre feeding a southerly wind into her car to suppose that level degrees and that blue is rain with about a metre and a half of snow on the ground theres potential for a big fall a big flood if you like but anyway in the honshu its still sudden grants or floods are certainly a risk and then we wrap around the cold when afterwards when the sun comes out and temperatures drop not a lot but a little bit of protein in tokyo is so nice and warm elsewhere i mean were up to about 14 in beijing once again and the sun is in the sky the air quality varies it was pretty poor yesterday its going to be hovering i think the next day or so throughout india the showers are starting to get going there sporadic their internal but the showing themselves were still getting these western disturbs is that cold locally coming through which means rain in store for afghanistan for pakistan particularly seen some pretty big falls recently in kashmir and we repeated that operation on tuesday a more especially on wednesday.

When it comes to how to relocate them in syria particularly i think president adult strickly of push for the support needed for establishing a saves on in Northern Syria and also with regards to the relocation of refugees erivedge into the currently dead deal the migrant deal which was signed in 2016 a revision for that will also be demanded so whether European Union officials will will answer will have answers for these 2 demands i think it is something that we should see wait and see for the for for today.
