. as we look ahead to the fee for arab cup final here in doha, where algeria take on to nicea the last major run through before the cutter. 2022 world cup. ah, we begin in the u. k. where a record number of calls in 1000 cases have been recorded for the 3rd day in a row calls from across the political divide. growing for the british government to bring in more restrictions. 9 to 3000 infections were registered on friday. case numbers nationwide have increased by about 39 percent in just a week or let's get more on this. we're joined by me barker in london. so how authorities their coping with the rise in cases me was also trying to figure out how to best protect people. also the economy is really a delicate balance, isn't it? and that is one that could potentially politically be harmful for a prime minister, boys. johnson as well. only a few days ago, a 100 ruling conservative party m. p. 's voted against the british government's decision to introduce mandatory policies for people attending major events. if horace johnson moves too quickly to introduce restrictions in light of these rising omicron figures, he could well face an even bigger rebellion from members of his own party at a time which in his leadership authority be weakened by a number of scandals forcing bars. johnson to rely upon votes from the opposition labor policy so that it's not like you look good for him. there's also rising concerns from businesses that if restrictions are introduce, forcing them to close or forcing fewer people to be able to attend restaurant so balls than it could well, lee to thousands of businesses going bust in the new year. the cool, some businesses are growing louder, louder every day for the government to reintroduce financial support measures that at a time in which the financial covers of the country already pretty stretched as well . so what the government is doing is doing what it's left when it's only choice is to turbocharged the booth to drive encouraging tens of thousands of people to get their 3rd doses in big stadiums like chelsea's ground on saturday, and also wembley stadium on sunday. but big concerns to this drive needs to reach 1300000 people just in the capital alone, who haven't had a single dose, and that translates as many millions of people across the country. the impact is sobering. we're already starting to see hundreds of medical staff off sick from a hospital just next to where, where based in the shot and london, the implications off many people suddenly foil would cove. it. the national health service can be on the significant strain, very quickly. a wine situation in the u. k. at similar situation and you at the case is rising there and more countries there contemplating more restrictions. me yeah, it's really, really difficult to, to decide which lever to pull and how many to pull potentially at the same time. but across the european union, some of those crucially was already started to be pulled island, introduce an 8 p m curfew. imagine this only a few days away from christmas. a city like dublin, normally that has a rich night life tumble wheat, as people put aside that christmas plans and celebrated home with limited numbers. a germany also mulling the possibility of introducing quarantine on people traveling from the united kingdom. we know that france and denmark are on a high risk list. so travelers from those countries could well be affected very, very soon. a portugal warning that by the end of the month, 80 percent of cases, they're likely to be on a chrome, spain saying that $500.00 cases are being reported per 100000 people. meaning that the company has now passed, the very high risk threshold and more measures will be needed that the netherlands, health officials, putting pressure on the government to introduce restrictions. these are difficult decisions to be made. but it appears as if they may need to be made soon to bring this situation under control. may thank you for that for now. that certainly voc over the latest live in london. while all of this is going on in the u. k and europe. korean of ice case is an hospital admissions, and the usaa accelerate in to the number of infections is increased by 40 percent compared to last month. while the numbers in hospitals have risen by around 45 percent. many universities going back to online teaching and sports events have been canceled with his fund. experts predict the amazon variant will soon become the dominant strain death. i'm a con, is increasing rapidly and we expect it to become the dominant strain in the united states as it has and other countries in the coming weeks. we've seen cases of armor chron among those wearables, vaccinated, and we're still, and we believe these cases are milder or asymptomatic because of vaccine protection . or alan fish has more from washington d. c. of course there was a big surgeon, vaccinations, just as the vaccination started to come on to the market. and america was very happy with the way things were going. but no, it's just less than 40 percent that aren't vaccinated here in the us that still quite a significant number. and if you break those figures down, you will find that most of the people who aren't vaccinated identify as republicans . so it really doesn't matter what joe biden or the white house says, there are a lot of people out in the united states who say, we're never going to listen to what this guy's got to see. even though he seeing this could actually save your life. and if you break down the figures even more, you will see that the number of people who are dying tend to be in read states. that is republican states. and the majority of those who are dying are republicans, and so that is a real worry know, add to that, the fact that we're coming in to the christmas and new year break. remember a month ago we were talking about thanksgiving. how is a big travel day or people we're going to big family gatherings? nothing compared to christmas and new year. in fact, from tonight, people are going to start heading off on their christmas and new year vacations. and that is a real worry for the white house and for the health experts, because they believe that this will lead to a search, which of course then leads to increased hospitalizations, which means that joe biden isn't kicking the but of the omicron variant any time soon. living on to other news now and thousands of soldiers and emergency personnel adjoining search and rescue efforts in the philippines all through hedge, while one of the strongest storms in the world. this year, at least 31 people were killed in time for advice, swept across

miller and says the level of devastation is only now become unclear. we are starting to be able to be in touch with our contacts on the ground. those who are in the provinces of city go, behold, province in late the province. and the situation really is quite desperate. people we've spoken to say they are in desperate need of water medicine shelter, you know, basic blankets and leaping mads. many of the areas also have their hospitals partly damaged some of the patients. there are also in need of basic food medicine and supplies. but again, the major issue here is that the traveling point, the transport stops the airports and the ports of largely been destroyed. the winter national airport is non operational, same with the other airport in city gall problem. and so a lot of the operations are moving eastward in the city. and this is where a lot of the recon flights are coming out. we've spoken also to the emergency response officials here or who are still trying to figure out exactly what the death toll is. there are conflicting numbers coming out and they themselves admit that this is really the most critical part. getting this information very fine and making sure that help gets to those who need it most. but you know, it is a communication and transportation issue. at this point. sal slash lance in northern of ark, have killed at least 12 people. hundreds more have been injured and it seems no relief is inside has more heavy rain is forecast over the next few days. victoria again be reports in the suburbs of a bill, a clean up operation is under way to rent your way enclosed flash floods. here in people's homes and businesses are badly damaged. cameron a more says flood water swept through his property in the middle of the night, had been via harbor my son called me last night and told me to come here because there was a flood. thank god, we're fine. the most important thing is that we're safe. everything else can be fixed. the water level reached around one me to 80 is that the flood started around 1 am local time when most people were asleep. but every one got out alive. molly puma, this is my aunt's house. 2 people lived here and they had 2 guests who were disabled when the house was flooded. one of the residents tried to save the disabled people . the force of the water meant he wasn't able to and they drowned. we removed 3 bodies from half a matter of mud. iraqis have been hit by a succession of extreme weather events. they've enjoyed repeated droughts in recent years, but have also experienced intense floods made worse when torrential rain falls on sun baked earth. the government's accused of being too slow to adapt to climate change and that widespread corruption has led to years of under investment in the cities infrastructure. it's left areas like this ill prepared to deal with flooding . this is happened because of government neglect and the absence of a solid plan. this is the 3rd time this has happened to us. there's no sewage system or anything that can save us from danger. it will take weeks if not months, the homes to dry out and be repaired. many say they're worried about move floods in the future. victoria gates and be al jazeera. now the united states says is prepared to talk to russia about its demands to curve nato activity in eastern europe. russia announced proposals on friday, calling for legally binding guarantee that nato would seize its military activity in eastern europe and central asia. the u. s. remains concerned of russia's military build up of at least $80000.00 soldiers on the ukraine border. washington described some parts of the draft proposal as unacceptable and once they will be massive consequences over any aggression on ukraine or theresa fallon, as director at the center for russia, europe, asia studies. and she says the us would never agree to some of russia's demands. the 1st read of all of this who has been shocked. these are massive, asks that moscow the kremlin once so many of them. of course no one could agree to . for example, no further expansion. any countries that were included nato. since 1997 with nato would have to ask with us would have to ask permission from the kremlin to do any sort of activities. so i think that there are a lot of red lines there that the u. s. has agreed to discuss some of these issues, but these are big asks and it was like a sphere of influence. again that, that put in wants to put in place that they just completed the summit. this kind of might give you a barometer of how some of the europeans, not all member states are members of nato, but they had said that there will be sanctions if russia continues to increase military activity in ukraine. so there are a lot of tensions. it's quite interesting the timing of all of this because who tin has we're coming up to the 30th anniversary of the demise of the soviet union. so be december 25th. and it seems to put his putting a lot of things, you know, lining up all his ducks. he has in the shade that he published a statement saying how he worked as a cab driver in the aftermath of the collapse of the soviet union. so these anniversaries are very, very important to him, and it's almost laying out these incredible red lines that he knows nato and the u. s. cannot agree to it's kind of beefing up his domestic support. back back in russia, still
