We mentioned iran as well which has had the largest number of deaths from the virus outside of china our correspondent there is still such a bari with more on how thorough fees are responding. The number is of course significant because they are worried that the containment process is really something that they need to address as quickly as possible the outbreak started in the holy city of home which is about 120 kilometers south of the capital tehran officials believe that a chinese worker construction worker was the source of the outbreak in that city you know they have since closed schools and universities not only but in about 2 thirds of the cities across the country in the capital and all the major events have been canceled including the governments Foreign Ministry briefing that was to be held on monday and we also understand the terror on university dormitories have been evacuated as well the Health Minister has also said that the masks and this in fact and will no longer be sold in pharmacies because the government will be hanged handing them out in public metro stations as well as buses across the citys japan now which is confirmed the 3rd death all the passenger who was on that cruise ship which is corn train for 2 weeks earlier japans Health Minister apologized after another passenger tested positive for corona virus after she was allowed to go home in fact 23. 00 passengers were eventually allowed to disembark without being tested for the virus around 80 percent of the 770. 00 infection cases in japan were on that ship earlier i spoke to mohammed money or his a lecturer of Lancaster University in the u. K. Explain what options are actually available to help beat this virus. There are really only 3 ways by which we have prevented such infections in the past 1st is that people have a genetic to sisters against these infections 2nd is that we have a very good vaccine that can be applied to control this infection well the told is that people change the behavior so changing behavior is the only option at this moment because the 1st 2 options are not available yet in this looking face off the outbreak so any leaking has in changing behavior is the major reason that the widest would suppress from one country to another struck in from one percent when other person by changing behavior specifically i mean is that in this Current Situation the main factor that can either help to prevent the infection or facilitate further suppression is the personal who is infected or who who who is well known at all so the person who are well neighbor or in fact it or likely having contact with them they all are having to moderate responsibility to maintain a high level of personal hygiene and also to keep in contact with the Public Health authorities that any suspected cases are reported in a timely manner so when the time of the matter pours are they are we will have a possibility to intervene but the trust mission pattern of this infection for one person to another person and i can explain in a few. d simple ways how we really are kept can protect from the sort of spread of this infection personal hygiene is at the top most pretty oddity so everyone should be avare that they have to sneeze into bed and elbowed a white contact and discourage the public gathering and quite you know get into places where there are possibility for the trust mission that is a priority however that there are National Responsibilities and then the interNational Responsibilities National Responsibilities have been that really veeck especially in this situation when people who are of year china has given a lot of information early time point but many countries still been really poor and been really putting those efforts and to controlling it in. Place and that is really no the major reason that the why does is encourage sing enter and really american into the countries where it hasnt been before and then there are International Responsibility International Responsibility by that i mean that we were actually and other Health Control authorities theyve been proactive in the beginning but really they came up with all of the probably you know of the sport in a really slow manner and still there are a lot lot of question onto what really is the Public Health doing Public Health emergency for example is really putting in place for the countries especially the pinnacle i mean they would be at the same level to cut in kenya and to screen and to put all those controlled 1000000 in place because china is the center of the sound break in the chinese president xi jinping says the situation does remain serious and complex that leaders are now debating whether to cancel next months annual Parliament Session to concentrate on fighting the virus support for major brom. The National Peoples congress is chinas biggest political event of the year drawing almost 3000. 00 delegates from across china. One of the few occasions when all of chinas leadership is on show but the governments own advice is for people to avoid large public gatherings that means this years n. P. C. Is almost certain to be postponed possibly delaying a key announcement on Economic Growth targets chinas president xi jinping says that getting the economy moving again while containing the spread of the virus remains his priority he has to tell the Chinese People something you can choose total blackness or you can choose a sort of veneer of transparency what we dont know as with all governments is whats happening behind closed doors over sorts of things and more importantly for transparency what we dont know is that whats coming out in the media is something we can necessarily trust ryan manual is an expert in chinas Public Health system he says the governments initial response to the outbreak in early january was correct it reacted very quickly it found out what the virus was test for the virus and in that period 2 weeks afterwards it reacted appalling. This past week chinese diplomats have been on the offensive defending the expulsion of 3 foreign reporters and brushing aside international skepticism over the constant changes to chinas testing criteria for the virus but that criticism has been very selective says one analyst they show at us and saying that us making the virus worse and is discriminatory against china but when nowadays russia made. Our decision to close the border for all the chinese nationals to say a word its not just the National Peoples congress thats now in doubt so too is a key economic conference known as the bow echo. Forum also held each year in march if the National Peoples congress is cancelled then analysts say theres one thing guaranteed to be missing from the agenda when it does eventually convene a call to hold chinas leaders to account for this crisis adrian brown aljazeera hong kong were moving on to other news in iran has announced its lowest voter turnout since the 979 Islamic Revolution that about 43 percent of people voting in front is parliamentary elections the hard line conservatives are set to dominate they won all of 1030 seats on a result still coming in from elsewhere thing is voters did have limited options with thousands of moderates and reformists disqualified from running irans interior minister those as the turnout was adequate given what the countrys been facing mother shadow. We held these elections when there were several incidents in the country we had bad weather there was this coronavirus disease there was the plane crash also the events of january and november in such a situation the turnout right seems perfectly acceptable for us all from our correspondent us had begun to run. Well this is very embarrassing for the establishment voter turnout is around 42 percent in the last election it was 61 percent hare in teheran where i am 25 percent in the last election it was around 50 percent now this is one of the most conservative parliaments this country has ever seen takes place when the turnout is the lowest since establishment of the Islamic Revolution now we need just to give you an idea of how low the turnout was in the last election here is the around there were 30 seats up for grabs all of them were won by reformists moderates candidates every single one got over 1000000 votes this time around all 30 seats were taken by conservatives and only one of them the former mayor got over 1000000 votes now we knew this election will be controversial because the Guardian Council the body that vets candidates disqualified over 5000 candidates including 81. 00 current sitting m. P. s but despite the Supreme Leader coming out and president hasnt romney coming back encouraging people to vote they just didnt come out and vote and its a very very low turnout its very embarrassing the Supreme Leader spoke this morning and hes blamed western propaganda that try to deter people from voting but this also puts president Hassan Rouhani in a very difficult position he presides over a conservative palm and a politically opposed to him to have been politically critical of him and the 2015 nuclear deal and many people see him as a sitting president because the president ial elections are next year and he just doesnt have a majority out of the 290 seats around over 201 by conservatives and hes reformist moderate allies only have around 20 seats now lets not forget the position of the economy here inflation has been very high unemployment is high and also the economy is suffering under sanctions so it does put him in a very difficult position and also theres a lack of trust and confidence in the gulf. And the political establishment because of the low voter turnout so it is so despite the sea of support that we saw after the assassination of gen dostum so the minute the hundreds of thousands of people that came out onto the streets that just didnt transfer into people coming out and taking to the polls the 2nd largest quake has struck the turkey iran border region the magnitude 6 quake hit late on sunday following a magnitude 5. 7 earthquake in turkey is van province earlier in the day that killed at least 9 people several of believed to be trapped under the rubble and dozens are injured on the iranian side as well. As more details from the thai in southern turkey. The search and rescue operation is still underway because were talking about a huge area on the only border with iran district villages and this is where the authorities are trying to establish the number of buildings that would affected and the possibility of people being trapped under the rubble the governor of bonn said a while ago that there are no reasons to be wary of about people trapped under the rubble because most of the best years have been managed have managed to go to those areas this explains why they are now talking about the number of 9 People Killed 37 injured and 9 of them in Critical Condition and turkey and iran are some of the most seismically active countries because of the active fault lines and you say one of those despise the other is well you get a quakes last month for example in 2 other provinces in the same area and there were struck by. A 6. 8 earthquake 41 people were killed and about 1500 people were injured in 2011 the same area that was hit today so an earthquake that killed more than 500 people the authorities are saying that they are doing their best to try to get to all those who were affected through that area on the border with iran all right lets see whats coming up for you on this news hour we have now won the battle court there i 1st in the west a lot more on how Bernie Sanders advanced in the race to become the democratic president ial nominee also in a suit his Prime Minister defends flying to south africa before being charged with the murder of his 2nd wife leaving his tiny kingdom in suspense and in sport italian matches are canceled due to run of ice fields but the title chase is not c. E. O. Get the go ahead peter well have details on that later. So lets look at Bernie Sanders now whos boosted his front on a position in the democratic race to choose a contender against donald trump he had a decisive win in the nevada caucuses the 1st contest with a racially diverse electorate his rivals now looking ahead to the South Carolina primary to keep their chances alive there are principles from las vegas we have now won the battle caucus. A resounding victory for Bernie Sanders as he sealed his position as front runner and moved a step closer to winning the democratic nomination we have just put to go. A multigenerational multi ridge Racial Coalition which is going up not only win in nevada its going to sweep this country. The vermont senator set up a strong and Sophisticated Organization in nevada winning strong support from white and latino voters with his calls for universal Health Care Student Debt Forgiveness and a Green New Deal to defeat Global Warming the victory came through the efforts of a small army of enthusiastic mostly young volunteers. Many of them gathered in downtown las vegas to celebrate as the results came in for our sanders was so confident of victory here in nevada that he skipped this r. T. And spent the day instead holding rallies in texas now thats one of the big delegate rich state that holds its primary on super tuesday march 3rd sanders now as a boost of momentum going into super tuesday joe biden came in 2nd in nevada and is hoping to do better in South Carolina next week losing centrist candidates like pete would a judge warned sanders is to lift wings to defeat President Donald Trump in november senator sanders believes in an inflexible ideological revolution that leaves out most democrats not to mention most americans. Earlier in the vetted democratic voters gathered in schools libraries and casinos to stand for their candidates at Sierra Vista High School outside las vegas caucus goers argue sometimes passionately to win over other voters all youll hear will be nothing made of moving but in the end the night and nevada alone to Bernie Sanders robert oulds al jazeera las vegas. The thoughts now of a shut house on the Democratic Political strategist explains why nevadas an important indicator of support from minority votes people may have heard about the 1st 2 contests New Hampshire and iowa they make big news because they make big news the importance of the nevada caucus though is that this is a caucus in a population that far more resembles the democratic electorate nevada is a diverse state with which you know voters Asian American voters africanamerican voters this is a demographic that New Hampshire and iowa really lacks so this gives us an idea of how the electorate in general are more representative idea of the electorate in general and at least in terms of the democrats themselves South Carolina will be similar theres a large africanamerican population for International Viewers if it isnt clear racial that the way that candidates interact the different demographic groups and different racial issues is enormously important in our politics particularly in Democratic Politics so this is that 1st contest that really factors that. On sunday President Trump congratulated Bernie Sanders on his win in the nevada caucuses he also said he had been briefed on reports that rusher appeared to be meddling in the Election Campaign to help send us i think what a good day the democrats. Are getting very very very early and it sounds to me like a least likely dramatic you dont want to represent sounds like a good thing all over again the party. Thank god you had a great victory but you know exactly right because. I want to. Thank you very much so i think i was able to get. That to be a terrible thing. In chile after making those comments the president boarded a flight for india this will be his 1st state visit to the country during the 2 day trip hell meet president neurons ramadi trade and Security Issues set to dominate discussions the visit however begins with a stadium rally in a state called. Trump. President trump also said he would be willing to put his name on a peace deal with the taliban depending on how a partial ceasefire pans out taliban u. S. And Afghan Forces of all agreed on a weeklong reduction in violence the president S National Security adviser said they were watching the outcome barry closely weve got to get out of the war in afghanistan but were going to do it in a way that protects american interests so if the taliban does not live up to their agreement on the reduction of violence plan then well take a very careful look at it i think would be unlikely that we would sign a peace treaty but were not going to reduce troops to a level below what is necessary to protect american interests and our partners in afghanistan i can assure you of that. The emir of qatar i mean been hammered danny has arrived in amman to meet King Abdullah of jordan this is his 1st official visit since the blockade imposed on qatar by 4 arab countries led by saudi arabia and 2017 at the time jordan actually downgraded its ties with qatar but diplomatic relations have since been restored the 2 leaders are expected to discuss trade and Regional Security shells in amman for us and says this visit indicates a warming of relations. This is the 1st visits by the i mean of qatar to jordan since the 2017 blockade that was imposed by saudi arabia the United Arab Emirates egypt and bahrain jordan didnt blockade qatar however it did participate somewhat in the early stages of thats crisis by recalling its ambassador from qatar those relations have improved with full diplomatic representation being restored over the past few months rodents ending resounding is somebody that a true and reciprocating but whats making this visit so significant isnt just that it is both the regional files that are going to be discussed as well as bilateral relations with regard to the regional issues at the top of that is the palestinian issue in the struggle for freedom there both jordan and qatar opposed the deal of the century as its been billed that the trump peace plan they say its a unilateral. Plan that does away with the rights of palestinians the rights of return the right for them to have their own state and therefore they are looking to maybe come up with an alternative solution to this decades long conflict jordan obviously very concerned because of the amount of Palestinian Refugees here on also its historic role in palestine with regard to the bilateral relations there are going to be focusing on economic and business ties between the 2 countries as well as security and military cooperation with regard to the economy the virginian economy had slowed down over the past couple of years which resulted in several protests taking place in the streets and qatar has already invested more than 500000000. 00 in 2018 into the economy here in jordan its offered more than 10000. 00 jordanians jobs in qatar and is looking to boost that as well something that has been received very well by the government here as well as the people in terms of security while there are discussions that the Jordanian Police and Civil Defense will be assisting with their expertise and man power to help secure the 2022 world cup as well as other.

Thanks kemal yes in a bid to stop the spread of the disease authorities havent post strict quarantine measures into northern regions close to venice and venice is famed carnival has been shut down but medical Officials Say theyve yet to pinpoint the source of the outbreak Catherine Stenson reports. More drastic measures in italy as doctors struggle to contain the spread of the corona virus the mayor of milan has ordered schools to close for at least a week sporting events in the financial regions have been cancelled so have the final days of the world famous tennis carnival disappointment to thousands of revelers. It is useless to stop a carnival because there are hospitals and bars and supermarkets and restaurants and trains and planes and ferries which are all open spaces and so how do you solve this problem stopping a carnival its all ridiculous that its more outrageous than the virus. At this point its very unnecessary new things and the lock down in northern italy has gone from urging everyone to stay indoors to a fully fledged quarantine Prime Minister just up the country has banned people from entering and leaving the regions where the virus is most prevalent and the army is being deployed to ensure the quarantine is observed. You should you list them we on the hill for thought to have not been able to locate patient 0 because we havent taught them to fight this is difficult to make any predictions about how the virus will spread so the only volley to be taken was to close off these type of trees were going to support but the corn chain has led to a rush to buy supplies and with the sudden increase in new cases many italians are worried that the poll would appoint manny were all afraid but were crossing our fingers o.

Last month and is in a transition period that Withdrawal Agreement leaves Northern Ireland inside the u. K. Customs area but all procedures are expected to apply to goods arriving there after december 31st germanys social democrats are set to be the Biggest Party in Parliament Following state elections the party is set to maintain its leadership of the city state along with the greens whove made big gains chancellor Angela Merkels crisis ridden except for the worst as a result in any german region and voters in the city state have rejected the far right alternative for germany which so its dropped dramatically well lets take a closer look at what the exit polls are saying the s. P. D. Got around 38 percent of the vote down about 7 points from 2015 the greens with whom they currently rule the city have roughly doubled the sport to 25 percent chancellor Angela Merkels christian democrats came in 3rd with an 11 percent and the far right looks on track to exit the parliament having not reach more than 4. 8 percent of the vote. Well lets go live to dominic a now his life for us in how dominic tell us. The s. P. D. Share of the vote is down but theyre still celebrating out there. Yes they are definitely celebrating because for them this is for many of them it is vindication theyve been in government here for 9 years the current mayor when i spoke to him on the campaign trail a few days ago was determined that his policies his partys policies were the ones that chimed with the people with the voters and he believes now that hes vindicated his party emerges with fewer votes but in a very strong position and lets be clear this city state is an important part of the federal republic of germany because it is the 2nd largest city the 2nd largest urban center in this country and so to a certain extent when a party does well here it reflects the urban voters experience across the country to a certain extent and it was a pretty good day for the greens what is behind their popularity. All in one sense theyre celebrating perhaps more than the social democrats because they have more than doubled their vote and this success that theyre experiencing now should not be considered to be a surprise for several years now the party has been riding a wave of of popular of Public Opinion more to do with Climate Change with many people believing that its important to register politically their desire to see greater protection to see Climate Change slowed down to see policies that prioritize the environment brought to the fore thats certainly something that the lead candidate from the green party wanted to to stress when i spoke to her a few days ago and its something that shes been talking about since these exit polls and the greens has been doing very well across the board in this country and so the success here this evening has to be seen as part of that process and what about. How does this result affect that. Well in one sense its pretty bad for them as you were saying in the introduction this is the worst result theyve experienced in this state ever but the opinion polls were suggesting that that was likely so theyre not going to be particularly surprised or that will not reduce the pain of seeing this defeat certainly the general secretary of the party reacting to this as except to this is a very poor performance but the most important thing to take from this election there is no other important state elections in this country now for at least 12 months next year is general Election Year so many parties now have the chance as it were to pause to draw a breath and consider what do they do next what do they do to try and get themselves ready to position themselves for a general election next year and one last thought none of the parties knows quite yet what their policies will be nor indeed who will lead them into that election thats why whats happened here is so important. Dominic kane life in hamburg thank you well thats it for myself and the team here in london for this hour and now its back to cologne in doha thank you for that charley more news from here and now the Israeli Army Says 20 rockets have been fired from gaza into southern israel 10 of them intercepted the Group Islamic jihad claimed responsibility for the launch as it happened after the israeli army opened fire on a cruise with palestinians killing one of them the army says the victim was trying to plant an explosive near the gaza israel fence 4 others were shot and injured while trying to recover the body before it was taken away by and its really bulldozer.

This project is part of 31 innovative ideas funded by the International Committee of the red cross and red crescent these blocks burn easily and are now being used to heat chicken farms here in the gaza strip as it did for me in the clinton. This saves the farm a 60 percent on heating costs to keep the chickens warm its also secure as he doesnt have to fear shortages of electricity which is controlled by israel a lot of farms lost due to the power cuts in the winter now this is the final product its basically compressed all of pumice and they dont and anything else to it now is highly flammable and its a simple idea but one that provides a much needed source of alternative energy here and of course a boost to the income of the producers.
