And im sorry just Sports Major League Baseball strips the transfer of the all star game because of new controversial voting rules in the state of georgia. Welcome to the news hour millions of people across europe are set to mark Easter Sunday under new coronavirus restrictions the use largely slow vaccination rollout and raising infections are leaving governments with just one option a full lockdown many people in paris left the capital ahead of restrictions as france faces its 3rd nationwide lockdown on friday it reported its biggest jump in the number of intensive care patients italy has and forcing a strict 3 day lockdown during the easter weekend nonessential travel has been bans but churches are open people are allowed to share an easter meal at home with 2 other adults and in a Rare National plea germanys president has urged germans to get vaccinated as more cities increase coronavirus measures and it is joining us from london to talk us through developments in europe and you have 2 very different lockdown situations in france and the u. K. Nadeem can you tell us more about those. Absolutely daryn well you were just briefly talking about italy there which is really trying to get on top of another wave of corona d virus infections on friday it reported 22000 new cases slightly down on the day before but still worryingly high so the country now is in a red zone emergency as they call it is not a strict as it was last spring when people were told d you may not leave the house for nonessential reasons but theyre being told that they cant travel outside their hometown or their home reads a region although they can actually go in groups of up to 2 to other households over the easter holiday. The controversial thing for a lot of people is that people can leave it to leave for nonessential journeys abroad like going on holiday so there are been busy scenes that different airports in italy which of angered some italians when theyre being told that they cant travel to meet family members in other regions for easter the situation in britain is somewhat different because of the vaccine rollout because of the speed of that vaccine rollout in the u. K. That you were referring to the message here is that under the relaxations of the restrictions people can now gather in groups of up to 6 out doors Prime Minister Boris Johnson on friday reminding people that the risk of transmission is high indoors and urging them to stick to the guidelines which is only meet outdoors or in other peoples gardens and just use common sense keep that distance between yourselves and hes trying hes hoping that people will stay local although there is no legal restriction on people actually traveling to beach resorts for example which has led to some people for example in southwest england getting worried about an influx of people from elsewhere in the country aerated thats a very disciplined situation from france where now its reporting a 3rd are people who are facing a 3rd nationwide lockdown. Thats right in france another country which is traditionally which it has a large catholic population which will be disk does which will be inconvenienced by the restrictions but the government says that its doing what it needs to do to drive down transmission now they reported in france more than 45000. 00 new cases on friday so even higher the restrictions which have been in place in some regions including paris will now apply nationwide from 7 pm local time on saturday theres a curfew there are restrictions on Peoples Movement saying that they cant get more than 10 kilometers from where they live for nonessential journeys they the government has been saying that there will be some tolerance over the next few days through into monday which is a Public Holiday for people going further for easter but after that the police will actually be checking that people have an artist thats your document saying that they need to go somewhere for for a particular reason for an essential journey such as health care for example the the situation in france has been getting has been worrying a lot of the Health Care Officials they really do what worry about the number of coronavirus patients still in hospitals there and similarly in spain one of the hardest hit countries and a country where many people would have been traveling between regions for each family gatherings but also for those famous parades theyre being told that they cant travel between regions the situation theyre just not not good enough for the government to allow that controversially though there are people from other e. U. Countries are being allowed to travel into spain if theyve tested negative for coverage 19 votes getting a lot of people in spain wondering whether the rules really are that sensible ok nadine thank you so much for that update from. Lets talk about all of this with john ryan whos a visiting fellow at the London School of economics and Political Science he is joining us from london as well thanks very much for your time with us mr ryan so if you look at the Economic Impacts of all of this i mean traditionally the easter weekend would be peak season for at least tourism and income and obviously one of the busiest holiday seasons in europe so what impact is this lockdown going to have on the country economically speaking. Overseas going to affect the Gross Domestic Product growth rights productivity because. Not only Service Industries will be affected but also factories exception supply chinese will be disrupted so that will rule and have a negative Economic Impact especially when its countries likes by fronds. Germany austria you know interconnected with each other so this will have a detrimental effect because basically the Economic Impact for france and germany as opposed to the United Kingdom was less up until now but there is maybe a catch up in the economic damage with these types of. Lock downs and unfortunately the death stuff will come with the high rights to be infection rate and even when the government starts to give the green lights obviously the readjustment phase is going to take many months perhaps even years how long do you think i know its a pretty broad question here but how long do you think that itll take for these countries to start recovering. Well you know spine and its city are in a bad place in terms of effects she writes already. In the last year and death writes and that catching up to the british. Cases and deaths right said that is very bad because britain was a very much a poor performer in this issue of the vaccine rodel and germany which is that and france now already starting to feel the pain of this. Yes he said its a broad question we have to remember where were going to have the vaccine rollout were going to get the vaccines done and dusted i think probably the u. K. For 1st and 2nd vaccines properly by the end of the sama europe is behind that the European Union is behind that america is going ahead israel is one of the best performances but weve got these new its a ration South African virus and new iteration of coverage 90 so we would probably need boost is so were going to get situations where is it going to be flare up so this time and time again over the next year so its very difficult to see that were going to be anywhere out of this situation until maybe 12 months maybe 18 months down the line when maybe we are living with that kind of 90 but we might have another every to ration that is kofi 20 or Something Like that so its very difficult to to make a prediction about that but i would say that were nowhere near out of this particular predicament so so then youre not very optimistic about a travel and tourism sort of recovery in the short term you know the industry it accounts for more than 10 percent of Global Economic growth and this clearly is one of the worst crisis. Yes i mean you correspondent touched on you know the situation in some of the European Countries where people are being locked down in their countries for example in germany you know. Not the place but thousands of germans are going to mayo. And they they might be ok when they get there but maybe this you know 19 flares up there and thats already happened whereas some of the tourists have already had to be i 78 so allowing people to travel into other countries been met trying to melt down is probably not a good idea because this. This needs to be really if youre going to do a knock down you really going to have to make sure that you you do Everything Possible to minimize flareups. 900 specially when your a fiction right is going now so people are talking about this tourism and theyre talking about the economy but you want to be able to move forward with the economy because if we dont 6 months ago or 7 months ago jodi looked like it was in a good place now its in a very bad place in terms of that and is a degree of human human error and he had he humanity is getting very tired of all these talk downs over these restrictions and. Consequently people become complacent and of course kind of 19 strides in that environment. And thats what were seeing now in the European Union. Strive enough the virus a slow fact seen rod out which is very very poor performance by the European Union in that particular area so right dont see the tourist industry actually coming back really this year its oh ok thank you so much john ryan for speaking to us from london thank you. More u. S. States are expanding vaccine eligibility as Coronavirus Infections rise across the country nearly a 3rd of the population has received at least one dose of over 1000 back seen more than half of people aged 65 and above are now fully vaccinated but more than 60000. 00 new cases were reported every day this week the u. S. Centers for Disease Control says fully vaccinated americans can now start traveling at low risk to themselves they do not require tests or quarantine but while the Health Agency considers vaccinated people low risk its still advising against travel for those who have not been vaccinated argentine us president s all better fernandez whos been vaccinated against over 1000 has now tested positive for the virus in its wheats he said an antigen test was positive but he was still waiting for the results of a p. C. R. Test to be confirmed fernandez says hes in good spirits despite having a slight fever government sources say fernandez was inoculated with a russian sputnik vaccine and had his 2nd shot last month iraq has received more than a quarter of a 1000000 astra zeneca vaccines through kovacs thats the u. N. Backed Vaccine Alliance led by the World Health Organization the government aims to inoculate 20 percent of the population of 40000000. 00 by the end of the year gold could prove difficult Simona Fulton reports from baghdads. After months of delay at contradictory messages from the ministry of health iraqs covert 19 Vaccination Campaign has begun. But. With now received 336000 vaccines in the being distributed according to plan to Health Clinics across iraq the Priority Health workers Security Forces the elderly and people with immunity disorders. That prioritize ation plan has yet to be implemented the government 1st asked people to register online but because of limited uptake it then opened the doors to everyone including young people like myself there isnt enough in courtrooms from the government to take the vaccine so i dont turn the priority to take the vaccine but i know if i dont come and take it maybe it will get expired and nobody is going to take it indeed this batch of vaccines expires at the end of may. Off already is race against time to mobilize a reluctant public the distrustful of the government and science 65 year old man should be a priority candidate he suffers from hypertension diabetes and had one of his kidneys removed but he has no intention of getting the vaccine. And people are scared especially the elderly vaccines contain cortisol which can stop the lungs so if you also are elderly about taking the vaccine they on so will be no. Iraqs government is facing a dual challenge when it comes to inoculating the population on the one hand must convince people to get a teen at the same time if struggling to secure those us from global fire. The astra zeneca inoculations iraq has received our part of 16000000 those is it has been allocated under kovacs the global Vaccine Alliance to ensure equitable distribution of vaccines but a World Health Organization. Nations top official in iraq says delivering on those commitments has been a challenge as producing countries prioritize their own needs the kovacs facility have have had some delays because the manufacturers did not produce as much vaccines to honor. The estimated doses to be distributed while both the scenes are pending delivery you covered 1000. 00 cases are hovering above 5000. 00 daily as the country experiences its highest levels of infection since the onset of the pandemic seen one awful teen aljazeera bucket that. Had on the news hour including were live in london where protesters are gathering to rally against the controversial no crime legislation. Putting your new. For him on a park that amount of time. Is just. Uncalled for a senior Police Officer gives his assessment of the force used against george ford before he died saying it was totally unnecessary and in sport the phoenix suns continue to shine in the n. B. A. The best reaction coming out with sarah. At least 5 more people have been killed in me and more in the latest crackdown on protesters but threats of violence on the arrests are done little to do its hard demonstrators more than 2 months after the military coup so many child reports. A good man with a serious head injury was carried away from the barricades in money about 136 kilometers northwest of mandalay this was just one of the towns where protesters reported to have been shot at by the Security Services in mandalay they took to the streets on most. Easier to flee when the crackdown comes and it follows another night of violence this video from sun chong and central young gun shows Police Standing over the body of an injured man you can hear the fear in the voices of those filming as they dragged the body away. That shared around the world on social media is drawing growing criticism even from myanmars powerful neighbors. We condemn any use of violence we believe that the rule of law should be privileged we stand for the distribution of democracy in myanmar. We have urged the release of Political Prisoners and supported any attempts at dissolving the Current Situation including through the efforts of the. Pro and regional concerns are increasing as 10 ethnic armed groups are myanmars borders through their support behind the empty Coup Movement on saturday that sparked fears of wider conflict on the possibility of a full blown civil war in thailand representative at a Global Beauty pageant broke down on stage when she proclaimed her support for the protesters they are working on the street. Now shes unable to return home but determined in her support. Because. On the street and im also fighting my way on the other states now i think that if they will not give that we will win and the funerals continue to this woman was shot in the head she travelled home from her job in a south korean bank. Bus stops around the country have been turned into improvised memorials for those who have died with messages of resistance now that Wireless Internet Services have been cut off. But even these simple shrines are being torn down as the Security Services try to eradicate all signs of resistance tony chiang al jazeera people are demonstrating in several u. K. Cities against a bill that would give police more powers to break up protests the bill was drafted after the socalled Extinction Rebellion environmental protest in 2019 it would let police set time and noise limits on rallies and even individual demonstrations activists are saying its designed to suppress dissent paul brennan is joining us from the rally in london paul tell us what youre seeing behind you and what opponents are saying about this bill. Yet there are many many different groups about this peace front bill which im seeing for the moment is that the rebels have got to be on the stage or in parliament rests in the lower house but the committee statesman has got the upper house yet but your time going to be amended there are several provisions within this bill which have got people out on the streets not just here but up and down. The big this is the National Weekend of action which is going on there are demonstrations in cities its not just a place like form of the sound barrier around the country im happy now to explain why its because the people here feel that the bill would get the police more more power to peoples rights to protest freedom of expression for example and put them out of place its been said that there is a big big friends. With the pot on the back of the demonstrators because they were people but they could be despite tax conditions for example. The difficulty from dependence points of view is that the bill is wide ranging and it has several points which many people say should be a. Serious trouble. Well the prison sentences less serious criminals getting sent to prison its been bumping up against the way that opponents say its quite wrong the people here say. That the right to smoke is freedom human rights and Civil Liberties ok paula let you go for now thank you so much for that update from london. A Police Officer has been killed and another injured when a man rounds his car into a barricade outside the u. S. Capitol building in washington d. C. The attacker was shot and died and hospital the area was immediately put into lockdown 3 months auster congress was raided by donald Trump Supporters culhane reports from washington d. C. Its happened again. Another attack on the u. S. Capitol suspect ran his part into officers and then hit the north barricade barrier assets time the suspect exit the vehicle with a knife in hand the suspect is believed to be 25 year old noah Greene Police say he lunged at the officers and they shot him dead before his car rammed the steel barricade police say he ran over 2 officers William Evans and 18 year veteran of the force was killed his body escorted to the morgue by a long line of police cars the other officer was seriously injured i just asked that the public continue to keep u. S. Capitol police and their families and in your prayers. This is been an extremely difficult time for u. S. Capitol police less than 3 months ago another member of the Capitol Police force died after trying to battle back a pro trump mob attempting to stop the election in that case reinforcements took hours but thousands of National Guard troops have been here since just after the january 6th attack and they quickly surrounded the building alert for a follow up attack that didnt come congress is not in session right now police say they had no intelligence on the south bank before this happened so now they start looking for a motive. Most of the fences that have surrounded the capital since the attempted insurrection have been taken down there were thousands fewer soldiers walking the grounds there was a sense that life here was going back to something approaching normal not now not after another deadly day in front of the symbol of american democracy. Aljazeera washington oh lets get out of jail for mike hanna whos joining us from washington d. C. So mike are you learning anything new about the investigation. No the investigation ongoing some further details have emerged about the driver of that vehicle no agree no 25 year old now social posts that he put that have now been taken down indicate a support for the nation of Islam Movement and its leader Louis Farrakhan but they also according to many observers indicate a slightly unbalanced state of mind indications of extreme paranoia so all indications are is that this man suffered from some kind of Mental Health issues but the whole incident as well as sparked of the debate a debate thats been ongoing about security around the capital and how to maintain the balance between giving all acts access to all americans to the cradle of democracy while preserving security for those within the capitol and of course those who guarded now yet another capitol Police Officer is killed in terms of while protecting the capital so this is going to reignite this particular debate the security measures in crease security measures have been lessened in recent days now the debate is going to go on whether they should be reinstituted the massive fence with topped with razor wire that had been erected around the capitol has been taken down in a spirit of turf and still remains that many members of Congress Still feeling deeply uncomfortable about potential threat and this incident has once again reignited these fears again mike as youre saying i mean this is a subject that has already been under the spotlight since the january riots. Very much so the january incident on january the 6th when people stormed into the capitol led to a massive increase in security around the capitol it also led to a National Guard being stationed in the capitol area now there were some 2000 members of the National Guard who were kept in d. C. On station after a large number had been sent back to their bases following january the 6th now their presence in d. C. Was extended by special permission to to the middle of may now the questions going to arise as well whether the National Guard could become a permanent feature of capital security investigation into january the 6th indicated that the Capitol Police are understaffed underfunded and simply do not have the intelligence resources to carry out an Effective Security operation and this is something that once again is going to develop following this latest incident in terms of what can be done to balance the need for security around the capitol with the right of americans to visit the congress ok mike hanna thank you very much for that from washington d. C. Time for a check on the weather on the news hour heres everything. Weve got some subtle changes taking place in the weather across the middle east over the next couple of days we have still got some clouds some rain a little bit of a wintry weather there across northern parts of the region but by laws here those temperatures are starting to notch up at long last so were getting into the low twentys there in damascus 22 celsius by route 80 degrees to roost a similar temperature here as well so wintry weather moving across took megastar northern parts of afghanistan further south it is largely dry but temperatures starting to fall away here in doha 29 celsius earlier on in the week into the high thirtys so that is something of a change the winds have gone around to move in northwesterly direction the wind setting in the a little cane as we go on into monday system lifted dust and sand to watch out for an eastern side of saudi arabia maybe also hit in concept further south its dry and sunny in that sunshine stretching across the whole of africa we might see one of 2 showers just creeping their way into southern parts of somalia as we go through sunday southern areas of ethiopia as well and the showers of course stretching right up into the gulf of guinea they do run right across into northern parts of mozambique Northern Areas of madagascar south of that is fine and dry so looking largely settle for south africa. Still ahead on the news hour whos there as a new president s well look at the major challenges we face as we try is to unite a divided nation. And the changing climate delivers south korea another Cherry Blossom record for the 2nd year running and in sport theres the dramatic start of a new electric off road series taking place in saudi arabia. When the news breaks 4 months ago janine onions was president of bolivia now shes under arrest when people need to be heard that more than 11000000 people infected hospitals in brazil are struggling to cope aljazeera has teams on the ground the last time voters lined up to cast their ballots in the Central African republic an attempted coup was taking place to bring you more room mood when documentaries and lightning. On air and online. Jumped into the story there was a lot going on in this and julian and Global Community when i thought of all the misinformation i think we are more afraid than we are and where it be part of the debate dont ever take anybodys one word because theres always a difference when no topic is off the table we have been disconnected from our land we have been disconnected from who we are and would love to hear from you and each week be part of todays discussion this streamed on out is there a. More. Hello again the headlines on aljazeera millions across europe us. Thats a marked Easter Sunday under new coronavirus restrictions france will begin its 3rd National Office on saturday and italy a return to stricter measures after a surge in cases at least 5 people are reported to have been killed in myanmar in the latest crackdown by the military against ansi from protesters gunshots were heard a number of cities as demonstrators again took to the streets. A Police Officer has been killed and another injured when a man round his car into a barrier outside the u. S. Capitol complex in washington do soon the attacker was shot and died in hospital. The. Its been a dramatic week of testimony in the trial of a former Police Officer charged with killing george floyd a senior Police Officer testified decision to kneel on floyds neck was a totally unnecessary act of deadly force is on the reports from minneapolis. The end of the 1st week of the derricks jovan murder trial may have lacked the tearful emotion of the previous days but for the defense team it was perhaps the most devastating the jury heard from one of the highest ranking members of the Minneapolis Police force lieutenant Richard Zimmerman a nearly 40 year veteran and a homicide detective he was called on to the scene in the aftermath of floyds arrest and subsequent death to investigate in no Uncertain Terms he condemned show vns use of his knee choke hold on george floyd. What is your. You know your view that use of force during that time. Totally unnecessary what do you mean. Well 1st of all. Pulling him down to the ground fresh talent and putting your new yana neck for that amount to put that amount of time. It is just. Uncalled for. I saw no reason why the officers felt they were in danger if thats what they felt. And thats what they would have to feel to be able to use a kind of force. In an exclusive interview with after the Court Proceedings had been adjourned for the week George Floyds uncle selwyn jones told me the family just wants justice all im doing is sitting back just waiting you know just waiting for that day to killed when i hear guilty i dont get to see him at thanksgiving or christmas or hollowing i dont get the city anymore he dont get to see his baby he dont get to do any of the things hes supposed to be doing because somebody decided that that day he would be judge jury and executioner its extremely rare for Police Officers to testify against one of their own and the dramatic testimony caps a week that saw several witnesses break down in tears in front of the jury while recounting what it was like to watch george floyd. Who do you think is winning this case in the 1st week. Theres no doubt in the 1st week that the government put its best foot forward in one of the things that they did is used video repeatedly and in different ways to emphasize their point because video has that objectivity that no eyewitness is going to have however for many people here in the Africanamerican Community theres still a long way to go in this trial they have control right now were just theyre just whats in their opinion we dont have no control he came through this journey to kill theel today they said not guilty he can walk away scot free before the trial will continue on monday and its expected prosecutors will continue to call more witnesses perhaps even the chief of police gabriel. Aljazeera and yeah Police Gunmen in haiti have kidnapped a pastor and 3 worshipers during a ceremony that was streamed live on facebook. Members were seen singing before dropping their microphones and hiding a man armed with a rifle entered the church and took the 4 away they attacked on thursday was at a 7th day adventist paris on the outskirts of the capital port au prince. Military says its pushed back an attack by al shabaab fighters the fighters targeted 2 army bases about 100 kilometers from the capital mogadishu while the government says most of the attackers were killed the armed group is also claiming victory it says it captured the bases and dozens of somalis soldiers were killed in the fighting. Has been sworn in as the new president of ensure its 1st transfer of power through the ballot box just days earlier Security Forces said they stopped an attempted military coup. Reports next happens on the i. Have to take in the shadows of his protests as a while but. As new just 50 democratically elected president. That day was also a historic one for the country it marked the 1st peaceful transition of power from one civilian government to another the ceremony was overshadowed by a recent field cool and rising attacks by im groups along its borders fact is many here who he will use his experience as former head of both the 40 interior ministries to resolve. Or less security the most important is security people of new disparate security 2nd to that is Good Governance and finally equity and justice but above all the day politicalization of governance which is very important we hope the president will appoint the right people in iraq positions devoid of partisanship. But some believe that new politics and politicians will limit disability to deliver real change mohamed to hard work begins now it will need to unite a deeply divided nation whose stability is once again threatened by wednesdays failed coup but the president can count on Global Support judging from reactions on the failed coup however the biggest challenge to his presidency is not only having to deal with ambitious military officers but also the threat posed by book or aman armed groups based in neighboring mali a reality not lost on mr bush assumes to give his 1st address as president and then run. Something for a long time the criminals of the Islamic State in the greater so hard who are affiliated to dosh almost exclusively attack the defense and Security Forces but for some time theyve begun to attack a village chiefs and then progressively civilians in an indiscriminate manner since last january theyve been carrying out massacres of innocent civilians on a large scale and thereby committing war crimes terrorism is a misfortune for our country. Always produces a mohammad isa for it was a moment to fulfilment offering democratical. For much of the country though the joy of this day will only be shed if mohamed does will be able to bring stability and development to be share of 80 trees.

Officials in taiwan say the death toll from fridays train crash could rise as they search through the wreckage families of some of the 50 people who died held a vigil at the sites prosecutors are now seeking an arrest warrant for a construction site manager whose truck rolled onto the tracks so once the reports. To move we may survived the carnage but lost her husband his son and her daughter. They were on their way to for the annual too sweeping day a traditional chinese festival she remembers hearing a loud bang just before the train and took the tunnel you cant leave. It was like a living hell our carriage was mangled things had fallen off and piled on top of cason shoes shelves fell on top of me it was dark. The train had crashed into a construction truck that it slid down a hill and onto the track just minutes now with huge in dollars and still when you make a little i got hold of a mobile phone and turned on the torch to try to find my husband and children i saw them but there was nothing i could do to get them out so many objects piled on top of them i tried to remove some of the things such as iron bars but there was just too much stuff and when i did a voice kept asking me not to move anything because it hurt him so i just sat still chuma was rescued an hour later president trying when visited a hospital where dozens of the injured are being treated and promised a thorough investigation into the accident as well as Government Support to affected families for you keeping. This distressing accident caused heavy casualties i came to while in today to visit our wounded and express my sympathy to the families of the victims. Officials have said the driver may have failed to properly applied the brakes of the construction truck prosecutors have sought an arrest warrant for the manager of the company that carries out tracks like maintenance a court has released the man on the.

Leaving human Rights Groups in russia have released a rare report condemning moscows involvement in the syrian conflicts it was released to coincide with the 10th anniversary of the war and that includes interviews with survivors and says most syrians view russia as a destructive Foreign Force the authors also criticize Russian Media for failing to report on attacks against civilians. International criminal court says it welcomes the decision by the u. S. To lift sanctions and visa restrictions on its employees imposed by the trumpet ministration the i. C. C. Chief prosecutor and another top official were among those targeted as the court began to investigate american troops for a potential war crimes in afghanistan but secretary of state Anthony Blinken says washington still disagrees with fats as well as other investigations Steven Rattner is a professor of law at the university of michigan he says thats another strong message from the Biden Administration to its international partners. Well its a very significant move for the United States and i think its part of the basically 180 degree reorientation of u. S. Foreign policy under the new by administration that follows along with many other nations like rejoining the powers accord i think the u. S. Is trying to send a signal to 3 audiences here and i think 1st and most importantly perhaps our u. S. Allies many of whom are party to the i. C. C. Statute and who saw this move as complete sort of overkill in response to an investigation it would almost be like putting sanctions on the u. N. Secretary general for just doing his job secondly i think the u. S. Is trying to send a signal that more positive relationship with the i. C. C. That it treats the i. C. C. Is a serious mechanism for accountability and its going to begin to engage and cooperate with the i. C. C. And then i think it sends a message to all other states of the u. S. Now trying to work with International Organizations and not go unilateral on all important issues so i think it means that i. C. C. Officials are now going to come to the United States i think United States may share information with them in their propaganda potential investigation of the taliban which will be very very helpful for bringing justice. For the taliban who committed war crimes and i think the u. S. Is going to be trying to explain to the i. C. C. Officials why charges should not be brought against any u. S. Forces are either because no crimes were committed or because theyve been investigated whether they will succeed or not it way too early to see but it will be a dialogue and the u. S. I think figured that it was much more likely to meet its policy goals or to talk to the i. C. C. Than if it just rebuffed it. Isnt turkey a provocation by pushing migrant boats into its waters it says the Turkish Coast guard has been seen as courting boats packed with refugees and migrants several times in the past 2 days the turkish government has not responded to the allegations yet its.

Or northeast asia Cherry Blossoms blooming is a sure sign that spring has sprung and this year is the earliest starts of the season on record and sciences are pointing at Climate Change up with pride reports and so. Its an annual event in northeast asia that heralds the coming of spring and thats been getting earlier each year in tokyo the traditional viewing of the Cherry Blossom coincides with the lifting of pandemic state of emergency restrictions allowing people to take full advantage of the spectacle. Last year i couldnt come here due to the state of emergency so here i am its the earliest the blossom has bloomed here since official records began 70 years ago and historians delving into archives from the ancient capital of kyoto believe its the earliest the bloom has appeared for at least 1200 years of course and i dont know if when i was a High School Student Cherry Blossoms were still blooming around the start of the Academic Year in april i think the timing is getting earlier. The colder Korean Peninsula witness says its blossoming just after japan but not by much a rolling wave of color moving south to north as temperatures climb its the earliest that sol has seen Cherry Blossom since records began 99 years ago and its 3 days sooner than the previous record that was set only last year it coincides with higher than average temperatures and more hours of sunshine the same apparent result of a changing climate is being felt across south korea only the most southerly island of jeju was warm enough to support the growing of subtropical fruit but not any more species like passionfruit are now grown in greenhouses much further north they were nona and the areas in which subtropical fruits can be grown are expanding towards the southern central and northern parts of the country in japan in recent years the warming climate has meant more devastating summer rains and floods while the Korean Peninsula has suffered from more destructive typhoons the early blossom may portend a change in climate that will bring more extreme weather come the summer months. But for now i depair in gold the more beautiful given the fragility and transience of its existence the blossom is here to be cherished. The bride aljazeera so its time for an update on the sports news here sarah chayes story no u. S. President joe biden says he supports Major League Baseballs decision to strip atlanta of the prestigious all star again its a protest against a new voting law in the state of georgia critics say the new measures signed off by georgias republican governor limits access to the ballot box especially for people of color the all star game was originally g. To take place on july 13th spaceballs bosses and now searching for a new venue. M l b commissioner rob manfred said Major League Baseball fundamentally supports Voting Rights for all americans and opposes restrictions to the ballot box we proudly use our platform to encourage baseball fans and communities throughout our country as he says to perform their civic duty and actively participate in the voting process for access he says to vote in continue to have our games on wavering support while this move is put pressure on arguably georgias most famous sporting event the masters Golf Tournament which starts on thursday when Civil Rights Group wants governing body to cancel the event and is calling on players to boycott it until the voting law is repealed earlier we did speak to a sports broadcaster michael colson. If the masters were the face of white kind it would have to come from the players themselves the Augusta National golf club isnt going to move to another venue the 1st black player didnt play in the masters to 176 that was lee elder and the Augusta National golf club didnt have any black members until 992 and under pressure from the professional golfers they finally integrated so its an interesting question for them as to what they can they will do but they wont have to do anything unless the professional Golf Association the p. G. A. Begins to put pressure on them so i doubt that anything is going to change there but you know i sort of doubted that Major League Baseball would move its offer game i think the quickness of the decision really surprised everybody rob manfred said a few days ago that they were considering it and then they went ahead and did it because i think theres so much more Awareness Among people about the way Voting Rights impact civil rights and given the black lives Matter Movement and the cullen capper nick boycott around that with with the n. F. L. I think baseball wanted to be on the right side and getting ahead of the argument because what has happened in georgia which is the 1st major state to pass legislation restricting voting ability really really say stinks i would say of jim crow legislation which was the legislation that from the end of the civil war up until 965 when the Voting Rights act was passed kept people from voting predominately black people as who it was aimed at in in the south and so this is really a major move by Major League Baseball is particularly significant this year because it was going to be staged lanta and the theme of the the game and the Major League Baseball amateur player draft and all the other stuff that goes on around it was going to be to honor henry aaron who was the. Homerun king broke babe ruths record for the american braves was an executive producer of the grid for the. d movie way and is proud to be some of the produce when he was a young player in the Minor Leagues in Jacksonville Florida when he was an executive with the braves or turner broadcasting so this will take that focus on henry aaron out of the city where he lived. And i think thats a big thing for Major League Baseball to do but its football in a similar honestly top of the race for the its highly neat title they held so 11 draw overtime by some torah some really bad defending just took the lead to the visiting team center adam and sent off a milan way which gets a late equaliser and spezza with the goal man came very close to winning in the 93rd minute but frank has shot to flex it on to the post and now 5 points behind their rivals and man who have the chance to extend their deeds when they play.
