Meanwhile turkish Officials Say that opening the border to the millions of Syrian Refugees who want to go to europe reversing a pledge turkey made to the European Union in 2016. And near the turkish greek border refugees are ideal waiting to cross into your app. I heard the news and thats why i came i want to go to europe. On the way for over 22. 00 and a half hours. This. Is the we were living in istanbul we want to go to greece the International Community is scrambling to respond to these developments with the fate of these refugees stolen and. Lets get more on the story now we can speak to military analyst Pavel Felgenhauer in moscow and correspondent yulia han in istanbul good to have you both yulia lets start with you there what more can you tell us about the latest developments. Well weve seen a number of clashes that between takesh and russian backed Syrian Regime forces in recent weeks and it led but from what we understand this airstrike a yesterday has cost the largest death toll for turkey in a single day since it 1st intervened in syria 4 years ago now turkey has been retaliating against Syrian Regime positions thats according to the president ial palace in there has been a National Security meeting last night chaired by present themselves this gives you an idea of just how serious of an issue this is for turkey so there are no signs of backing down here from remember the present add on has given damascus a deadline to retreat to previously agree cease fire lines in the it led by the end of the month which is today or tomorrow there has been also a phone call as we understand between president to everyone and president putin with no immediate outcome they have reportedly agreed on setting up a top level meeting sooner or later but considering the situation on the ground right now there are no signs that bush will back down that he will retreat so its safe to assume that we are going to see rather more confrontation than less in the coming days so the situation as. The lets come to you in moscow now as we just heard there has apparently been this phone call between president s area one and putin talking about the need to normalize the situation but at the same time russia is very clearly supporting the Syrian Government here is also sending additional warships to the region what message is moscow sending. Well the message from moscow is be the same for the last. 2 step mom on snake be a bit more and this is not the course the 1st time i. Was in were on the phone. Moscow saying that they had no terrorists threat in egypt should be dealt with and whos a terrorist they would decide the said together with the asset government and anyway this is a sovereign syrian territory and the Syrian Government internet which they believe is the legal see a Syrian Government or us that is free to do what it wishes on its own territory and should not be opposed by outside Turkish Forces so thats a guy so its a basically state that would draw a padley in the talks that continued for some time between our russian and 3rd to shed spurts russian rules of new maps were put forward for re drawing the soco the escalation zone to take into account the late the successes of the Syrian Arab Army the s. S. Forces so that a much smaller. Area they dont not do not control the most likely leaving a bit at that there is order still without the masses control but these wells those are not good enough for the turks ok so you see i want to come back to you to ask you about the hundreds of thousands of people who are on the move here and not just only fleeing the fighting in italy but also those refugees who are in turkey heading towards europe what does all of this mean for them. Well 1st of all the hundreds of thousands of refugees currently stuck in a head near the takesh border and staying there in that overcrowded refugee camps and the very very horrible conditions that these people for the. Time being will remain there because because turkey has not opened its borders for these refugees what you also mentioned are refugees that are apparently currently on the move here in turkey towards the euro turkish official told reporters last night that turkey will no longer be able to stop the 4000000 refugees residing in cite turkey already from trying to reach europe and though we are seeing the consequences of this now there are t. V. Images of people gathering at takis land border with greece and bulgaria people trying to move to the greek islands in boats and these to of course are pictures that will cause quite some concern in europe they might also force hero to act when it comes to right our correspondent yulia han in istanbul and Pavol Felgenhauer in moscow thank you both for joining us here in germany the Health Ministry has confirmed almost 60 cases of the coronavirus that this is significant jump from just 16 at the beginning of the week 56. 00 countries or territories have reported cases of the virus switzerland has banned all large Public Events including the geneva auto show south korea has seen a sharp rise with more than 300. 00 new infections bringing the total there to over 2000 nigeria has registered the 1st case of the virus in Subsaharan Africa and iran which has seen the highest number of deaths outside china cold on friday prayers in some major cities in a bid to stem the spread of the disease well this week south korea surpassed china with a number of new daily corona virus infections the south Korean Public Health response has focused largely on the city of daegu where the disease spread rapidly among members of a secretive church but all over the country people are worried. Snaking round the block queuing up for facemasks south korea has the highest number of coronavirus cases outside Mainland China and people here in the capital seoul are worried. Me of course im concerned because there arent enough mass. But im still thankful because we can at least get our hands on these.

Have cancelled 4 of their soul concerts for april their management say the large numbers of crew and concert goers would have been a concern. In japan authorities have taken the decision to close schools for almost a month affecting 13000000. 00 children. All of them on up. There will be many challenges. If children in the lower grades of Elementary School have to stay at home due to School Closures their parents will have to take time off work but what if the government is thinking about measures we can take for these situations to. Protecting the Global Economy is becoming as important as protecting people from the virus itself. So that even if it may seem excessive once youre infected it will be too late so closing schools and canceling events and might be difficult for those people involved but its better than catching the virus even the kids who stay. Here theres broad public support for japans efforts to contain the spread as the outbreak continues to affect more and more countries around the world. For more on the story we can speak tomorrow. Hes a fire ologist in the city of franks very much and thank you for joining us here in d. W. What do we know at this point about how the corona virus is being spread from person to person sometimes where there doesnt appear to be a direct link to the epicenter to china. Of course youve heard that the people can transmit there i was having symptoms or even mild symptoms so. Many people are not aware that they are infected and so they travel from china awful north to the go from Seoul South Korea to their home country without being aware carrying the virus in themselves so i mean other people who are transmitting the virus again and again and so one of these who comes to the symptoms to a hospital is not aware that you have met a person with a person that met a person from china all right so youre saying we probably would be able to trace that link back to the epicenter what do you think of reporting that weve got is that martin weve seen reports that one case in japan a person was diagnosed with a corona virus this person then recovered and was infected again what do you think of that. Its very important to get knowledge about the special conditions and which infection might happen because we think that after recovering from the virus you have at least a transition to unity against reinfection so its very important to. Get knowledge about which conditions we can be reinfected survivors. Ok we have seen that more than 36000 of people who have been infected with this rise they have recovered but nearly 3000 have also died and martin is this still primarily elderly people who have underlying illnesses who are vulnerable who are actually dying from this virus and its effect its still the best in a very nice of because. Published at the 24th of february where they investigated very carefully the desperate depended on age and. For the clear correlation to age and more with higher mortality. All right martin.
