A lead afghan forces are battling and dying. Trying to stop the advance of the taliban and compulsory Corona Virus, vaccines or the freedom to choose france and greece make shots mandatory for Health Care workers. Ah, i bring golf. Its good to have you with us. We start off tonight with the deadly ryans gripping parts of South Africa. The army has stepped up deployments as police continue to struggle to regain control, curb protests and restore the rule of law. The violence is concentrated in the provinces of gal ting and wants to learn natal. Would you say that the Death Toll has risen the 40 thought . The unrest began last week after the former president , Jacobs Humor began serving a 15 Month Prison Sentence for contempt of court. He is appealing the ruling to the nations highest court. Or and i want to bring in now professor karen, Rosie Man who is the director of the center of social change at the university of johannesburg in South Africa professor, its good to have you on the program. There were predictions and promises of Violence And Bloodshed from zoom. A supporters did you expect them to keep their word after zoom turned himself in to police . I think there was an expectation that there would be some form of mobilize Ation And Support of the former president. However, what we have seen on food and the div following, i think is quite unprecedented. And its clear that those over into being much more than just about situational for president g. Much, much more reflect or widespread concerns, but inequality, particularly the impact of the 19th monday and then on or recent of africans where we see the lifting. Its really about the thick items, its about food, title. Im so thats become about much broader than just i want to ask you about that about this social justice in just a moment. But what about the reaction of the police . They appeared to have been caught off guard were not prepared for this violence. How do you explain their reaction . I think its still a very complex and unfolding story. There are some allegations, but some sections of the security forces may be aligned to them of action may have some we are a potentially supportive or what is happening. Again, these are all things that are coming to light. I think its very hard to verify these claims and, but i think we are certainly not a very, very difficult situation. Given the scale of what were seeing. There are concerns about the response of police and know that appointment on army and insulin, neither of which have a particularly good Track Record in dealing with these things. Either just escalate bio and im sure you know, professor truly made ansel, as one of South Africas most respected legal mines. She is a woman who also helped write the Post Apartheid Constitution in South Africa today. She tweeted that this, what were seeing is not spontaneous. Chaos, she writes that what we are witnessing was organized by transactional leaders to intimidate our judicial system, to allow impunity professor, she is talking about Jacobs Humor there and his supporters and their desire for resume or not to serve time and to remain above the law. Do you agree with this . As i said, i think that this began with some people supporting jacobs them. But i think Sense Stana is definitely with much larger than that. And the protest and the looting are much more reflexive, all the orders to shake, and particularly get them to africa is in the peak of its 3rd week of crew and a virus. Were going to die and restrictions, but theyre not in the future. Economic relief that people who are prevented from going to their job really needs. And i think that comes at a time of almost a perfect storm or some of the political turmoil combined with and the norm. While all is this, what were seeing is this a perfect storm 27 years after apartheid. You have you add the pandemic to the unkept promises . Is, are we just seeing the public that has had enough promises from corrupt politicians . I would say over the last 10 years, all that africa as david craddick regime, the what weve seen as increasing political and social fragmentation, the governing african national congress has gradually be partly released to issues of corruption from which the former president is implicated. And im to that kind of political fragmentation. Declining support for the e n. D is also combined with long term economic inequality in africa, which 27 years of democracy has really feels to a trace, we release the Venue Ition of apartheid levels or inequality. And unfortunately, some african remain, want to move on equal society in the world and depends a mac has only served to entrench the yes, professor karen, rosie me, director of the center of social change in the university of johannesburg. Professor, we appreciate your time and your valuable insights tonight. Thank you. Thank you. Well, lets take a look now with some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world in cuba. Dozens of people have been arrested after some of the biggest anti government demonstrations in decades. Exiled rights group. Google x says as many of the 150 people have been detained, thousands have been taken to the streets to protest keepers, economic crisis, and its handling of the pandemic. At least one person is dead after a Gas Explosion at a hotel in southern russia. It happened in the black Sea Resort Town of Gillen Geek for other people who were injured in the blast for now receiving treatment and intensive care units. Italy has banned cruise liners from the Venice Lagoon to protect its ecosystem and its heritage. The government decided to act after the united nations and culture organization unesco, threatened to place italy on a blacklist the band will take effect on august 1st, cruise firms and their workers will receive compensation. Whenever you have ghana stand where the government is facing and increasingly dire security situation. In recent weeks, taliban insurgents have overrun dozens of districts and several provinces sees in control the trade routes, enforcing thousands to flee. As nato troops withdraw from the country. Its now up to government troops to provide security. They face a daunting challenge. The a convoy of african commandos under attack by the taliban. They were on a mission near the city of kandahar, but ran into an ambush before reaching their target. All over afghanistan, the taliban are on the advance. Im not going to keep us trained commandos are an elite force facing from fire fight. Firefight determined to stem the tide. Span is an independent country and has an independent Army Constitution and government. We are the defenders of these law, Mac Republic of afghanistan and its flag. This unit emerged from its latest battle without losses. But things dont always and well. Gruesome footage emerged showing these a dozen commanders being massacred by the taliban last month after they surrendered the taliban. 3rd is not just the military disaster. Thousands of families have to lead the military advanced swelling. The rank of the displaced, the an estimated 270000 of loans have been newly displaced inside of the sun since january 2021, primarily due to insecurity. And while in bringing the total number of uprooted populations, 2 or 3500000 to follow from this conflict does not stop. But if ghana stands border than estimated, 1000 refugees are fleeing the country every day. For join nell by ali latifah, hes a journalist in cobb bowl. Its good to have you on the program. Ill either video that we have seen of those special forces who were surrendering to the taliban and then who were executed it. So graphic, we Cant Show to tell version viewers, but it begs the question, do these government forces these soldiers, do they stand any chance against the taliban . Yeah, of course they do. You know, theyre there as much as, you know, districts are falling into, its all about hands are also being taken back. And i think we need to be really careful of this very Doom And Gloom narrative ahead of time. The war still ongoing. You know, things are still happening. Theres still a fight being put up and i think the more we sort of already hand over a victory until told Bonnie Think were doing this service to the country. Where do we know in terms of percentage of territory . Do you know how much the totally, by them taken and how much african forces then have been able to retake the problem with, with, with these territory issues is that unfortunately these Territories Trade hands all the time, theyve been trading hands for years currently, theyre trading hand all the time, i mean, avalon media is full of reports that you know, Ex Province Act district fell to the taller bond today. And then these districts were gained back by the tyler bond tomorrow. And at the same time, you know, the issue is that there are a lot of areas that are under the influence are under title one control or their areas where the government will have some presence but not full presence. And so its really hard to sort of one to 5 these think theres really no one going out and doing the studies and the claims keep, you know, both sides keep claiming, you know, control of X Amount of territory at any given time. And theres really no one going around and actually, you know, and its also not necessarily physically possible to go around and estimate the sorts of things. Well, it is possible though, to go to lets say, your service positions, areas were camps, were when nato forces were present in see if they are under the control of afghan forces, right. Is that being done . That is being done. And there have been instances where the taller bond have taken, or have at least entered these bases in these camps. And theyve taken the media to show that they, that theyve been there. For instance, by graham, when by graham was handed over, even though there was no actual official hand over, you know, the u. S. Just basically left in the middle of the night. The taller bond said that its not necessarily their priority at the moment to go retake that area and that they are concentrating on other areas and other tactics at the moment. But that they were happy that the us had left that base because the bees had such a negative memory for so many reasons, including the prison that was known for so much Abuse And Torture and accusations of these sorts of things. Ok, journalists, lots of joining us tonight from cobble with the latest on the situation and if canister, we appreciate your reporting only. Thank you. At least 90 people have been killed.

We managed to take out some people, but they were suffering, and the rest of them burned and died. And now they are left counting the dead shod belongings. All thats left devastation everywhere the horrors of what happened. Hard to comprehend. Its still on clear how the fire started. Some officials claim an Oxygen Tank exploded while others point to an electrical short circuit. This just the latest disaster to hit iraq is a tragedy, and im speechless. It looks like a rock again has to suffer Anguish And Calamity in the medical staff continue to treat the survivors some in a critical condition. The questions are already being asked.

And for those left behind well, there have been been 2 deadly fires and iraqi hospitals within the last year. Earlier we spoke to journalists for read, for read in baghdad. And we asked him if authorities have done enough to improve safety at hospitals now was really not because when that tragedy happened, that, that the prime minister at the time who is currently battled heading before an election in october at really little capital on the line. He had order that the time that old bias, the electrical System Safety made is across all of the iraq possible, not the back that the check the on and raise the leave maintain. That clearly hasnt happened in this tape for a patient to go in and come out. That is really calamities that embodied whats happening in iraq of the moment.

President Emanuel Macros ordered all Health Care workers to get vaccinated against the Corona Virus by mid september. Bars. Restaurants, trains, and planes will also be off limits to people without a special cobit 900. 00 pass starting next month. President macaroni is calling the effort a new race against time to prevent a 4th wave for Health Care workers at this hospital in paris, President Menu on my Calls Announcement means a choice between getting the job or losing that job. For some its an easy choice to make sure that its true that the Paramedics Department and especially assistant nurses having trouble to understand the importance of getting back to needed. So i understand why a manual macro and asked to mandatory vaccinations. Otherwise, we wont get through this gets lost, you know, for the sake of a Hospital Work as an angry, their jobs are on the line. If they refuse, unfortunately, i will have to get vaccinated against my will because i love my job. I love my patients and he measures also include the need to show proof of vaccination or an expensive negative test for long Distance Train Travel and visiting restaurants. Many peruvians are embracing the challenges, but some worried by my cross suggestion, that mandatory vaccination for all may be necessary. Its a violation of all right. We dont have the right to move around freely for me compulsory vaccination. Its inconceivable. Frances joining other European Nations like italy in greece, which have already announced a mandatory vaccination for aged Care And Health workers. Up looking to ship them from september. First, mandatory vaccination will apply to both public and private Health Care professionals. It is unthinkable, for example, for an unvaccinated nurse to care for an amino suppressed cancer patients. The drastic measure is an attempt to find a wave of an Occupation Fatigue that some countries are witnessing with Europe Opening up some politicians of cautioning that different roles based on immunization status is the only safe way to motivate those hesitant to get the job private groups like the organization set up by form a u. K prime minister, tony blair, a pushing the government to have a strict or approach where we oh, i mean, i just think we gotta be careful as we open up the curb. Its not terrible. Weve got to live with cove it for a long time to come. The key thing is to draw a clear distinction between people who are vaccinated and people who arent. Meanwhile, german terms langley, michael, has ruled out mandatory vaccines. She hopes more people will choose freely to get the job for life can continue returning to normal across europe. Or lets get more now on that attitude from the german chancellor. To do that, im joined by our political corresponded Teresa Trooper here in berlin. Good evening. See you teresa, let me ask you the german chancellor, shes very confident that this is not the time for her government to make these vaccines mandatory. Why is she so coughing . While the chancellor knows that according to the latest pulse, the willingness to get vaccinated, he and germany is still comparatively high. At the moment, more than 58 percent of germans have had a nice one jap and 43 percent are fully vaccinated already. And among the people who have not had a jap, the majority say they are planning to do so at some point. And that being said, the Vixen Nation Campaign is slowing down a bit at the moment with in some areas more doses available than people who actually 11 and more infectious delta there and very and is also taking over here in germany. But nevertheless, mandatory vaccinations are completely off the table for the moment because its a widely unpopular measure in germany and the government has long rule that completely out. And of course its now determined to keep its promise, since we have federal elections coming up in september. So instead authorities, he and germany are trying to make it easier for people to get vaccinated. For example, with dr and vaccination centers offering vaccines and shopping centers, for example. And the chancellor has appealed to germans who think that vaccination is not necessary at the moment or even dangerous for them. So lets listen what she had to say there. Well, this, im sorry. I wanted to say something to everyone whos still unsure about whether they should get vaccinated. Vaccination protects not only you you, but also always those. You are close to important to you whom you love of explanation, not only protect you from serious illness and pain, but also from the owner of the restrictions of our everyday life. The more who are vaccinated, the free of we will be again, the free or we can live again the via the does i and the fire going to be the lead theresa, we know the german chancellor, but other leaders across germany its going to, theyve been making their decisions about this pandemic based on whats known as the Incident Rate of infections that though is changing. Tell us about that. Yeah, thats right. Brand. On the one hand angle, american said that the Incident Rate will remain important to monitor the situation in germany. But he also said we need to focus on other numbers as well. And most important be the number of severe cases and the efficiency of the vaccines against those severe cases. Because we know that people who are vaccinated are less likely to end up in the hospital if they get infected. So hospitals will probably be able to deal with higher incidence rates now that the Vaccine Campaign is going so well. So the government has already said that even if the Incident Rate rises again and reaches 100. 00 infections per inhabitants, germany is not automatically going back into a hard lockdown again. All right, our political correspondent, teresa talked with the Leaders Tonight on the situation here in germany. In the pandemic, teresa, thank you.
