The u. N. Is criticizing efforts to stop weapons from reaching libya and what e. U. Foreign ministers are planning to do about it and the bonus league of bahrain go back to the top of the table after a crushing cologne theyre back in the groove and well thats not good news for the rest of the german top flight. Im calling aspen thanks for joining me to china is reporting an increase in the number of new cases of the coronavirus reversing the trend of the last 2 days i would government also said the number of dead now stands at 1800 and that more than 70000 people are infected with the virus across the country. Trying to keep the boredom at bay and who has the chinese. City hit hardest by the corona Virus Outbreak medical stuff at this hospital have been trying to motivate the patients of today stuck in hospital many welcomes the relief. From normal would call a sions in this makeshift hospital are all of mild symptoms and they can manage their daily lives still it is hard for them to be stuck in here we want to make something to keep them busy as a part of our work report before going. In chinas hu bay province the epicenter of the outbreak new report cases are again on the rise after 2 days of declining figures in Mainland China alone Officials Say the total number of confirmed cases is over 70000 with nearly 800 deaths. Chinese president xi jinping is now facing criticism over why the public was not alerted sooner to the outbreaks potential severity official media recently released an internal speech he gave an apparent attempt to show the communist Party Leadership acted decisively from the start but instead it revealed chinas top leaders knew about the outbreaks dangers weeks before the president publicly addressed the problem. Of euro chinas military has now dispatched hundreds more medical workers and extra supplies to a bit to shore up the citys overwhelmed health care system. To get the latest now from beijing correspondent has been reporting on the virus there now show god this is a city of millions of people its essentially on lockdown now i mean how do authorities there plan to keep residents inside. China is a surveillance state so they are lots of cameras to surveil the buildings and everybody is most people in china are living in compounds in fenced off compounds that have a gate and there is somebody sitting at the gate usually these people sitting at the gate dont do anything people can just walk in and walk out but its very easy to activate these people to stop people from passing through actually sheldan is now one of 2 cities that have. Issued this total lockdown note where people cant even leave their building to buy groceries other cities restricts households to letting people in out just once every 2 days to buy groceries and here in beijing everybody is handed a pos we can we walk in and out freely but we can for example not bring strangers into our compounds so china has these these social control mechanisms that are. Much older than technical surveillance that is also in place now and theyre using it now and it is i want to ask you because chinas president delivered a speech and this was behind closed doors were just hearing reports about it now the speech was about the severity of the krona virus but it was about 2 weeks before the spoken about publicly can you tell us a bit more about the fallout now from those revelations. Yeah this speech that were talking about is a speech that he held on the 3rd of february that is 2 weeks ago it was published in chile sure thats the partys theoretical magazine that a party that spreads Party Ideology the interesting thing most of it is about combating a war against the virus and his leadership but the interesting thing is that he said in that speech that he had been cheering that by. Little against them iris from january the 7th now that was the time when author if you still deny that there were ayers was dangerous and this period of denial is seen as one of the main causes for the spread of the virus so he is now basically opening the failures from the beginning and thats quite remarkable that he has said this openly and this could be published in the Party Magazine its might be that they are confident to win the battle and that the initial failures will stand back behind these massive efforts that theyre bringing on now to combat the virus it might be that he couldnt evade any more. This acknowledgement because the fact that he has not been seen during this period is also has also drawn a lot of criticism we dont know really the motives behind it but we know that we are in the period now when its when when this battle against the virus is something that dominates the whole country today just we have seen news that most probably the 2 sessions the annual session of the parliament will be postponed this is a major step in this political system that does not like surprises to there the schedule absolutely amity is falling of reporting for us in beijing thanks very much.

Our lets get a check now of some of the other stories making news around the world and australian courts has ruled that a search warrant authorizing police to raid the Australian BroadcastingCorporation Last year was legal police were searching for material related super porting on Australian Military operations in afghanistan a.

Well a court in cape town has given hundreds of refugees and Asylum Seekers 4 more weeks to stay in a church where theyve been camped out since last october the migrants sought refuge in a Methodist Church in the city center after being forcibly dispersed from their sit in protest outside the offices of the Un Refugee Agency the refugees say they are threatened by anti foreigner violence in south africa and are demanding to be resettled outside the country lets get more now from our correspondent adrian krishi has been following these Court Proceedings in cape town adrian 1st of all just walk us through this Court Decision today and how are refugees reacting to it. Well so basically the main point of the court says is that the people here the refugees that you can see behind me in front of the church you have to abide by the municipal loss basically there were a lot of complaints by people in the neighborhood its right in the city of cape town theres a lot of shops hotels and so on who are saying this is harming Business People are staying on the sidewalks theyre cooking everywhere they urinating everywhere so the court says you have to stop that the court did not say this is an eviction notice this is actually what many people here were afraid of that this was going to happen that they after 4 months have to leave the church but overall mixed reaction from the refugees i talked to some said well ok its good for now we can stay well we actually need to find a conclusion here we can also not stay here forever because they have to recall is to be relocated to a 3rd country. And we can we can get a sense of it just by looking behind you but can you describe for us what is life like for refugees in cape town or are they at risk of violence as many claim. Its a big debate here as well because if you recall the attacks last year those in a phobic attacks that have happened they mainly happened in johannesburg and other areas not here in cape town but if you talk to the refugees here they have other stories to tell they talk of structure off racism off experiences themselves for example not to give getting birth certificates for their children and so on and so forth so they say yes their life is at risk here but many people here see it quite different even right next to the church where you see like dozens of shop owners who are from other african countries as well they say they feel safe here they want to continue living here and theyre quite upset with what the refugees see behind me at the church here saying adrian many of the refugees they say they want to be resettled in other countries where the chances now of the happening. There are very low and thats the problem here the refugees insist that they want to be resettled and the government insists on the end of this saying its not possible its not going to happen no other country has said we are ready to take you so the only solution the government sees is for them to go back to the communities here in south africa where they came from our aging preach on that story for us in cape town thank you very much. The European UnionsForeign Policy chief says the block is divided on whether to resume a Naval Mission to stop arms smuggling to libya italy and austria have raised concerns that the ships could encourage migrants to attempt the voyage across the Mediterranean Sea eve Foreign Ministers are meeting in brussels today theyre going to discuss the issue of their talks come a day after United Nations official said attempts to stop the fighting in libya and an arms embargo to the country are failing. Well europes inability to provide effective leadership in ending the libyan conflict was a key topic at the Munich Security Conference that wrapped up on sunday. Libya is still awash with arms and fighting is still raging despite a previous agreement reached in germany last month a top u. N. Official at the Munich Security Conference said the truce had been violated 150. 00 times since then and she said efforts to cut the flow of weapons had been equally unsuccessful arms embargo has become a joke and so you know we all really need to step up here and. It is complicated because there are violations that are you know happening on land sea and air and that all needs to be monitored in libya fighters loyal to the internationally recognized government control only a small area around the capital tripoli most of the rest of the country is in the hands of the rebels. A month after germany hosted the libya conference and berlin its participants gathered around the table again this weekend in munich 30 nations including the United States russia and turkey germanys foreign minister condemned the fact that some of these states as well as others not present continue to supply weapons to the north african country. It is important that we create transparency and ensure that those who intend to continue breaking this weapons embargo must expect to be identified. In your head but europes leaders are not speaking with one voice different e. U. Governments even back opposing sides in the conflict that lack of common purpose was another of the conferences focal points. Are for more lets go to our top correspondent teri schultz shes in brussels for us terry been following this story for ministers now meeting in brussels today i mean whats on the table what what will they be discussing. Well called the European Union decided that its biggest contribution to the push to end the libyan conflict would be to reestablish a Naval Mission in the mediterranean designed to monitor the arms embargo now this came after so much optimism after that meeting in berlin where the 2 major sides turkey and russia agreed to stop shipping and weapons and then a cease fire was agreed on the ground so the e. U. Said ok well make sure that no weapons get through that that arms embargo but what has happened is that the reestablishing this mission has remained bogged down in migration politics and we all know how tricky that is and the European Union countries like austria and italy are unwilling to revive operation sophia as its named because they say they dont want these drowning migrants to be picked up and brought to european shores and so they are unwilling to allow the mission to be reestablished as an arms embargo Monitoring Mission and you know the German Foreign minister ma says we cant solve one problem if we leave aside the other one he is urging all Member States to go ahead and support the arms embargo he says were not going to stop these people fleeing from libya unless we solve the political crisis in the country but it doesnt look like today anything is going to be resolved theyre just going to keep talking about it. Talks continue we heard earlier a senior u. N. Official calling the arms embargo at least the enforcement of that in bargo a joke i mean it is anyone respecting the rules now when it comes to the conflict in libya. Theyre not and thats particularly disappointing after this berlin meeting a month ago where they said they would stop shipping in weapons where this cease fire was agreed and there was a lot of hope that perhaps this really would be the time that a political solution in libya could move forward that the 2 sides would Start Talking instead of trying to fight this out militarily but that hasnt been the case as you as you heard in our report and now with the European Union not even being able to agree to put ships in the mediterranean to monitor the the arms embargo it really seems like nothing has been achieved a month after it looks like things were very much moving on the right track terry i want to ask you because germany took such a big role in bringing trying to bring peace to libya there was a big conference in berlin a month ago whats your sense but will germany continue to try to push that forward. What we heard from foreign minister moss this morning was that he still is very much motivated to move things ahead but also frustrated and that frustration is shared by e. U. Foreign policy chief Joseph Burrell who actually articulated in munich over the weekend that it was ridiculous was his word that a country like austria that doesnt even have a ship that would be going into the mediterranean would be allowed to block it so this is has in fact created a bigger discussion about about how Foreign Policy decisions are made in the European Union but in the meantime libya continues to suffer and people continue to die an Islamic State continues to regroup its a really serious issue and nothing seems to be moving ahead and i do correspondent teri schultz thank you so much heres a look now at some of the other stories making headlines at this hour u. N. Secretary general Antonio Gutierrez has praised pakistan for hosting millions of afghan refugees hes on a 4 day visit to address the conference on refugees and peacekeeping this week marks 40 years since afghan refugees 1st settled in the country.
