Welcome to the news i would begin in the end where the military has intensified its crackdown on protesters who what the generals to give up power the coup leaders have warned demonstrators that dissent against them. Could lead to 20 years in prison and for the 1st time since the coup the military has deployed tanks and soldiers the deposed leader and son suchi is to spend more days under house arrest after her detention was extended in a moment well be speaking to aljazeera is david pollen in hong kong but 1st its called hyla with us ripples. There were soldiers in Armored Vehicles on the streets another tense night in myanmar but despite the security patrols and an internet blackout protesters gathered for a 10th straight Day One Group of the Civil Disobedience Movement c. D. N. For short stood in front of the central bank in yangon and continued with their calls for the military government to step down and the countrys democratically elected leaders to be released we are protesting peacefully without weapons and with no intention of violence to call for c. D. s and fight for the 3 dimmest government staff this is the military judge to issued a statement on its Facebook Page outlining the possible punishments for protesters saying any act spoken or written that expresses or incite hatred of the government could lead to 20 years in prison people gathered outside a court in the capital neighbored or hoping that deposed civilian leader on song suchi would be released on monday those hopes soon dashed. According to the remand which was set today is the last day of the remand period but from the discussions with the district justice to remand period is now until the 17th not today. She was one of the 1st to be detained in the early hours of the coup 2 weeks ago shes been charged with illegally importing 6 walkie talkie radios. According to a Monitoring Group more than 400 people have now been detained since the february 1st 2. Theres a vast range of people within that group and thats of real concern for 23 year old a fortune teller charlotte a fellow young gun fortune teller was arrested a few days ago after a video of him praying. For the military to fail went viral on National Bank on washington since their dictators they can make up whatever laws they like to oppress us we astrologers are like bullets in their hands if you squeeze me a dead if they let us fly be a free this is the nature of dictatorship and its not just happening to us its everyone. And thats probably why protesters are coming out in strength the Ruling National League for democracy and ill be party won by a landslide in the last novembers election and was extremely popular most see this move by the military as a notification of their vote and their voice scott heiler aljazeera lets go straight across to david pollan whos monitoring events for us from hong kong so a curfew is in place now divya after what has been a turbulent day in parts of the country. Yes the streets are largely quiet because of that curfew and the governments announcement internet blackout from 1 am to 9 am now is the same on sunday overnight and suring this period there were increased reports of arrests and harassment so that is also of concern of the many who are now in there many protesters who are now in their homes monday was also a day where there was increased troop presence in several 1 parts of the country including mandalay where. Security forces and police used rubber bullets to break up a group of a 1000 protesters who were peacefully who were in a peaceful rally outside of the state bank over in the end gone which is me and mars biggest city there was also heavy troop presence on the ground with Armored Vehicles and tanks despite that protesters still did come out but not in the numbers that we have seen in previous days now there is also an increased concern due to the fact that the laws were changed over the weekend that makes it allow for Security Forces and police to arrest makes it easier for them to arrest people they can now go into homes and search homes and take people away without a court order or a warrant and that usually happens at nighttime but there is also more concern of possible bloodshed an increased crackdown also due to the fact that the most substantial number of the troops that were seeing on the ground those increased number of soldiers and military a substantial number of them belong to a unit a combat unit which is known for their brutality in past campaigns against ethnic minorities and even protests to get thanks very much for the up to give you paul and for us the whole cold. Call when is the Burma Human Rights Network director in the United Kingdom he says its up to the International Community to intervene and be involved every day the arresting across burma have hundreds of people and the people or local people came up to the street to protect these people you know but the thing is you know important thing in their Mission Community need to put more pressure because these military generals would arrest warrant on the heavy pressure from their subordinates or other generals he also fear just fear that their future their future will be in danger because the associating in the in the present in the in the very very day he a crime in many countries in the are committing so International Community need to put more pressure more ice i saw libya there this military legal political you know the generals and their any government officers and step down the floor you know cut down the communication with them and put more pressure the more people create more pressure more the several different disobedience increase the military will respond with more violence if the International Community put pressure would stop this by so the pressure from the Public Meeting recently increased at the end the government would shut down and they were not able to operate today you see thats all because of the banks now government backed employees to stop going to the should the job so they related to the some quarters where they live and the local people came out to protect them so their defeat that means what they have done is they withdraw all the cash from the bank and they took some nonplay that means the government Banking System also going to shut down very soon. Weve also got breaking news coming out of africa or at least 60 people have been killed and several 100 more are missing after a large boat sank on lake combined in the western democratic republic of congo lets go over to alan why cant he joins me now on the phone from kinshasa and alan it is night time across the d. R. C making any sort of rescue or recovery operation in the lake very difficult what seems to have happened. Yes we are now as you said its already a nighttime and tollways pretty difficulty even to deal with the rescue activities in india actually that is up to now we still have the same number of 60 bodies recovered by the local rescue team from the accident in the west of the country and its not very clear on whether the government. More can shut up town in order to block local t. V. Cause so far to walk in with the local capacity then talking about the context itself for. The cases so what ship actually did really good across the country especially on this. You you can find hundreds of boats we delta meaning security may just Walking Around and troubling around the country its very difficult to have the exact number of the victims even for them when the accident like this happening because they were told it is themselves these really dont have a point 4 of the number of people taking that is troubling. Around the country because more troubling during the night and there was not a list where you can find a number of people how many people voted on the boats here then when it comes that there is accidental support for example its a very big problem on the river because the majority of percent just themselves they dont they dont have even a safety check it for example which can help them to deal with actually that so and also the congolese very very very big and there was a huge step between kinshasa before they reached the village where the trouble is so this also makes it very difficult to actually. Rescue when the accident happened. Frequently indeed im sure well get a clearer idea of what the authorities are going to do in the coming hours for the moment Valentine Connie thank you for joining us from can shaista. Now turkey has summoned the American Ambassador in ankara to explain washingtons response to the killing of 13 turkish soldiers in iraq and their bodies were found in a cave in Northern Iraq president rest of the one described the u. S. Statement condemning the coming as a joke they call that the u. S. Either stand with turkey or against it. Because. I dont know. If we are together with you in nato and if we are to continue our unity in the world and in nato the new x. And sealy towards us then you will stand with us not with the terrorists Robert Pearson is a former Us Ambassador to turkey joins me now live from raleigh in North Carolina via skype mr ambassador good to have you with us on aljazeera it does seem the president earlier ones accusations have received a response in the last hour or so secretary blinken has a readout issued to the Turkish Foreign minister ive got it in my hand here general pleasantries to start with confirming support for turkey and also condemning the deaths of those turkish civilians as such is that what you would expect considering turkey is initially by washingtons initial findings and statement. Well i think that that is about what you would expect and i think that secretary blinken intended to make sure there was a Quick Response you know that the u. S. Expressed its deepest condolences and stood ready to condemn in the strongest terms the terrorist organization p k k that turns out that they indeed were the ones who cosbys deaths but turkey is an ally turkey is in nato and we share a number of common interests that we would like to be able to move forward on stronger land they had a conversation im glad they listed all the issues that have to be addressed im glad that they understand that this kind of conversation has or survived but individual incidents mr herder want rhetoric as previews difficulties in United States Public Opinion about moving forward and i have no doubt that is rhetoric on this case will also produce impediments that doesnt eat rice from working toward a Better Process of settling arguments and so it would trump the will of pick this now then i think the relationship between the u. S. And korea has been pretty frosty certainly under the trump era defense equipment for example bowl by a bolt by turkey from russia has been a problematic as you say with both of these nations being nato allies how willing. To try and improve relations with the new bike that ministration from your perspective. Well i think that he has tried a kind of modified Charm Offensive reaching out but the why havent seen any change in the turkish position to date and i havent seen any willingness to consider such a change so that what bothers me i think that the us has been quite clear for a long time about the things that concern it and i think in order to work forward we have to directly address those issues and i hope we can do so and one of those issues it is the kurdish issue support has always been a Sticking Point for both countries that the u. S. Wanted the best for our International Viewers to get a brief idea the u. S. Wanted them to help in the fight against eisel turkey was always worried about emboldening them would give them a sense to assert the sort of need for statehood in the region its a very complex regional and ethnic equation with very few perhaps potential resolutions. Well i agree and so i think thats a. An even clearer reason that we need to discuss if youre going to have a conversation the 1st thing you need to do is to make sure that your interests are not going to result in conflict with each other and so deep confliction is important here isis is still alive in turkey i mean she is free and syria its still a growing force i understand that west of the euphrates the syrian army is on able to control the growth of isis so unfortunately that Terrorism Group which also has committed terrorist acts in turkey is still alive and still capable of being financed and operating so i think thats an issue that turkey in the United States could address themselves to to get how do you think this latest span is going to you might say can set a date a because for the last 4 years theyve been dealing with a troubled presidency thats been a bad back and then youve generally gult. Looking towards russia a potential ally yet still to bug will be scratching his head at this one to well i think hes done very well so far in trying to leave space for a conversation you know a syria and russia are on 2 separate sides in libya the russians the turks off the negotiating table in azerbaijan so whatever is the sentiment about treating a turkish Russian Alliance as a kind of reality in todays International Global picture i think that there are some still some very clear questions about just how much the turks can trust the russians indeed to see what happens oh its good to get youll perspective of us depend thanks for joining us from raleigh at things that are not helpful thank you thank you. Still ahead here on the aljazeera news. Im paul brennan at Londons Heathrow airport has a policy of hotel florentine comes into force.

Now the World Health Organization has approved the Oxford Astra Zeneca kovac 90 vaccine for emergency use the decision will allow some of the worlds poorest people to be immunized against the virus the products will be distributed through with a quibble Access Program it comes as the number of cases globally dropped for the 5th consecutive week. Vaccinations also because they have mexicos Capital Health officials aiming to inoculate 50000000000 elderly people with 2. Doses of the astra zeneca job so for Health Workers the relatively few people to be vaccinated. Will republic joins me now live from a city where these vaccinations are beginning and its been a pretty busy morning where you are. A very busy morning and this is exactly what the 1st day of phase 2 of mexicos national Inoculation Program looks like hundreds of people waiting in long queue since the early hours of the morning give you a sense of where we are right now were looking at the queue itself right now in the municipality of this is a Small Community on the outskirts of mexico city where people have been queuing up since the early hours of the morning waiting for their turn at that 1st dose of the probate 19 back to see over the weekend a shipment of around 870000 doses of the astra zeneca vaccine arrived in. Mexico from a Production Facility in india along with another 494000 doses of the Pfizer Vaccine now the goal of the 2nd phase of the Vaccination Program is inoculate 15700000 of mexicos elderly citizens so people over the age of 60 part of that 2nd phase is also going to continue the 2nd phase of inoculations for Frontline Health care workers now there has been actually quite a bit of criticism from Health Workers regarding this the strategy behind the United Nations program on one hand you have president lopez over the mexico say that everybodys going to have an equal share prioritizing Rural Communities indigenous and impoverished communities of mexico and what were hearing from Health Policy experts is that thats the wrong strategy that the government should be focusing on areas of the country that are densely populated high rates of transmission of coping 1000. 00 instead of Rural Communities like the one were at now that have relatively low rates of transmission compared to other cities now in any event we are hearing from Health Officials that this latest shipment of the astra zeneca vaccine this latest shipment of the Pfizer Vaccine coupled with forthcoming shipments of the chinese and russian vaccines will help speed up along this backs of these Vaccination Efforts that have been delayed for the last month but all thanks very much for the update model republic the force of mexico city. Lebanons nationwide covert 900. 00 a Nation Program is also underway bringing with it a sense of hope for the crisis hit country but with banks and hesitancy running high and uncertainty over the supply for michael and since fear that immunization could take a very long time to report stuff from beirut and you know its a start to end the coronavirus pandemic but the battle is far from over the elderly and Health Care Workers have been on the front lines of this fight are the 1st in line to get the vaccine lebannon has seen some of the regions highest cases and deaths and now in january almost everybody every person has a Family Member or relative what a friend because a coil of it might better have a quote covered both of them can know im secure thank god but we feel you know in our homes but not everyone is convinced about the vaccines the public is showing hesitancy so far 500000. 00 lebanese have signed up thats less than 10 percent of the population. And i wont take now because there are still a lot of question marks are wait and see the lack of trust is also because of what many regard a corrupt system. And more of course i wont take it the fact the government is giving it to us for free means there will be a price to pay later it seems the International Community has little faith as well the world bank which is financing lebanons purchase of vaccines will be monitoring the program to ensure a fair and transparent distribution the world bank didnt mince its words saying there will be no wasta thats arabic meaning you wont be able to use your connections to skip the line its a common practice in lebanon where politicians have long been accused of favoritism. Theyre also blamed for failing to secure enough doses to inoculate 80 percent of the population by year and the state is nearly bankrupt will probably inviting the public or the philanthropic sectors of the public to but its a pay to ensure the 40. 00 of the 40 percent more needed but that presumes the private sector secures vaccines in a competitive market the government is also trying to get funds to vaccinate the hundreds of thousands of Migrant Workers lebanon is home to more than a 1000000 and a half syrian and palestinian refugees.

The former South African president jacob zuma could face a prison sentence after he failed to appear before the inquiry investigating corruption during his time in office a commission has been hearing allegations that the wealthy gupta family used its friendship with zuber to win government contracts that influence policy there should be no. Legal systems into got. These men there should be no roots. And or outlets we should. Be subject to the same. Whether. I am that deputy chief justice and or im the chief justice and im president of untruth im a former president of the country we should not subject. At all. Well to be demilitarized ball from johannesburg. I mean the greatest significance of whats happened today is just how it reflects on the African National congress the governing party in south africa and how it views what the former president has done we do know that the top 6 leadership of the a. N. C. Had planned to see the former president to compel him to appear at the commission but this really is symbolic of the divisions within that party and its fight against corruption if the former president says that hes rights are being impeded on that hes been vilified that this is propaganda and theres a political agenda there are also many people who sympathize with him and said that he does want to appear at the commission with swelling with his rights at the same time hes not here to a summons which was issued by the commission and also previously the Constitutional Court had said he should appear at the commission and not doing that was undermining the law so we would have to wait to see what the Constitutional Court says next to to see whether or not zuma does continues to defy the commission as the commissioners under have said he is doing or if he maintains it is right not to appear. For the leaders of 5 countries and west africas whole region not be to get to the summit comes as attacks but of groups of increased in the region french president obama was expected to join the conference by video link france has deployed 1000 soldiers to back local troops but is preparing to reduce its presence in the area the bottle or small from paris. Well earlier this year the french president Emmanuel Matt cross said that france was considering reducing its military commitment in the sile the fact of late reducing the number of troops it has in the region but what we understand from the least say is that the french president is unlikely to announce a reduction of troops during the upcoming summit but what france might do is consider a reduction in the coming weeks or months and perhaps announce something down the line it is clear though that emanuel macro will be discussing france reducing its troops with his g 5 partners the leaders from the g. 5 nations when he speaks to them by Video Conference a bit later there are over 5000 french troops currently in the region were told though by the least say that what the french president really wants to use this meeting for is to exert more pressure on those g. 5 leaders both militarily to take more control of the region but also politically a feeling in france that we could governance is certainly fueling instability in the region michael also very keen to try and urge European Partners to do more in the region on the ground but there is some good news as they listen it seems they say that at least we are seeing the reengagement of the u. S. In the region under donald trump interest in the so how a crisis certainly waned but it seems to have taken a turn with the Biden Administration and we understand that Anthony Blinken the new u. S. Secretary of state will send a video message to the summit for tuesday now the red cross is warning the humanitarian crisis and all the modes of big its getting worse as far as you can to be covered oh god oh province more than half a 1000000000 people have been displaced by fighting between. Fighters affiliated to ice or aruba tosser has been. Aid workers say Health Facilities are being deliberately targeted in kabul and they cant access huge parts of the province people fleeing the violence in northern most and baek can sometimes only get help when they reach clinics set up in camps for the internally displaced they thought battlefield 1st sent us in their progress is a 455 and 39 offered them they are no more pressure not because they have been of under law used or they have been burned or they have been just to destroy most and because government has fighters affiliated to eisele operating in parts of kabul delgado the militant group stage is 1st attack in 2017 since then the attacks have been bigger in scale and frequency taking on the army and the time seizing entire towns Health Workers say be humanitarian crisis is getting worse from proton the government just the number of cases has gone up there are many diseases like malaria missing displaced people from where. Im a commie and districts practically the entire northern area. More than half a 1000000 people have fled their homes many of them are now in the provincial capital they complain about overcrowding manju tradition and the constant threat of cover 1000. Living as a displaced person. Moving from one place to another there are many difficulties a problem with staring over finding food to eat at least here and getting treated for illness i am now feeling better. Southern african countries portugal and others in the European Union have offered to help fight the armed groups but theres been no official word from the mostly be government on the way forward. Or out as are. Demonstrators in india are calling for the release of a young activist whos been detained accused of helping to write a protest guide or forward to say these are ravi helped to develop a toolkit used to spread awareness of widespread fog of protests the guide was shared online by environmental activist gratitude burke whos voiced her support for the farmers theyve been protesting for above the government reforms of the agricultural sector. Corrected on the is the its National Human rights lawyer i did advocate at the Supreme Court of india and she says theres been a dramatic rise of the number of people whove been accused of addition. Sedation is bad it was enacted by the British Colonial government and it was used against mahatma gandhi. When he was protesting against the Colonial Government it went up to the Supreme Court a nickel constitutional challenge and 5 judges of our court said that it was not merely spreading disaffection against the government that will be criminal that there must be a component of incitement to violence and without that you cant even claim that something is seditious as a result while the constable on the street and while many governments seek to use this law there are very few convictions that assist in when they go up to the Supreme Court the trouble of course is that thats the process thats the punishment now a number of accusations of tradition have gone up the sort of cases against people who disagree with government have gone up dramatically since 2014 times more the government came in and. And you know a lot of people believe that the law shouldnt just the top of of course that have a lot of emotive power because when youre trying to say that somebody is trying to destabilize the indian state then the rather than somebody has a particular view about 3 agricultural bills then the remotest power of that is very different and then youve been to the person who is speaking about those farm laws as an Anti National and i think the tendency is then to say oh well why dont we investigate this and let the states find out and then let the process continue and thats the problem. Of independent media has been one of afghanistans biggest achievements since 2001 but the United Nations says at least 11 activists and journalists have been killed in the country since the start of peace talks last year after reporters especially women have been threatened to be dated or even killed filio called the fury reports of kabul. In one of the media the basement of the houses not where is john t. V.

This is these new control room former journalists are supposed to be broadcasting their programs its small and basic not only because the new facilities are limited but also because only half of the original staff remain at the station. About a dozen of them work out of another couple station while they wait for security to improve and move to their new facilities 80 percent of the stations programming has been dropped and he broadcasts online for only a few hours a week those who are left carrying on is risky so i want to ask. When i leave my home my father asks me where am i going if im going to zante who is with me if i have my colleagues with me not only my family where all those women who are working in the media in afghanistan their families are concerned about their safety. Facing threats of targeted assassinations the women here say theyre scared but refused to stop one day our day they told does the be careful all with yourselves because we faced a treat and also there you know all of that we face feel like we will die like we feel like that but when we see.

The pandemic has forced restaurants like this one to adapt its working at 30 percent of its capacity what complicates the situation even more is that beef is becoming more expensive in a country where people are used to eating meat nearly every day latest reports show that beef consumption has dropped to an all time low or about 50 kilos a person a year half the amount consumed in the 1950 s. One of the recent is a changing eating abbots but there is more being played a crucial role in argentina culture this time.
