It is a month since the internationally recognised government of libya finally managed to take back full control of the capital tripoli with extensive help from turkey defeating a long offensive by a rival force. The battle between the two drew in other countries, taking different sides, marking the most recent stage in a long battle for control of libya ever since colonel gadaffi was deposed in 2011. Our International Correspondent orla guerin and her team have had rare access to libya. They sent this report from tripoli flying into libya, where the oil rich landscape has shifted, thanks to intervention from turkey. Its presence here has been largely unseen, but we gained rare access. On the red carpet, up close and masked, the Turkish Defence minister hulusi akar, seen as the new power in town. And heres why. Victory celebrations by fighters loyal to the un backed government. They kept control of the capital, thanks to ankara. So corona bumps and gratitude from fayez al sarraj, libyas internationally recognised prime minister. But is turkey planning a permanent stay on this foreign soil . I put that question to the defence minister. Translation saying that would be incorrect. Our presence here is based on Bilateral Agreements with the legitimate libyan government, recognised by the un. And this is in line with international law. Our presence will continue. We are trying to help our libyan brothers by consulting on military training and cooperation. Turkish forces are on the ground in libya, Northern Iraq and northern syria. One of natos most powerful armies often seems to be going its own way. Turkeys presence here is part of an expanded footprint across the middle east. Ankara wants to be a key player in the future, whatever emerges from the chaos in libya. And it is flexing its muscles across the middle east. And its creating waves in the eastern mediterranean, where there is a lot at stake, not least gas reserves. The minister made a flying visit to this turkish warship off the libyan coast. He strongly denied claims from france that turkey harassed one of its vessels in the area. But with its deepening involvement here, ankara is sailing in choppy waters. Orla guerin, bbc news, tripoli. India has now overtaken russia to become the country with the worlds third highest confirmed coronavirus infections. A sharp rise in new cases in recent days has taken the total Health Ministry figure to about 690,000. More than 19,000 people have died in india so far. The bbcs Anbarasan Ethirajan joins me live. Thank you forjoining us this evening. India was a country which are locked down early and it locked down with some of the strictest restrictions in the world, so what has happened 7 restrictions in the world, so what has happened . As you said, india was the first to impose a very Strict Lockdown and the transport was stopped, they were among the first to stop international flights, stopped, they were among the first to stop internationalflights, but what happened was after a month, they started relaxing some of these restrictions and in some states, where they were having a very good tracing method and testing method, they were testing and tracing people, isolating, for example in a state like cattle are in the south, whereas in other states, the number of tests were very, very low in a state like kerala. Tracing and testing people,. This has led to a resurgence of the virus, for example an estate of maharaja and in other states. The numbers have gone up for the last few days we have seen in your echo, 20 2000, 20 3000 and now it is almost 690,000 and it has now overta ken it is almost 690,000 and it has now overtaken russia. The challenge for the authorities is the Public Health ca re system the authorities is the Public Health care system is over stretched. And literally nonexistent in many rural parts of india. People with money can go to the private hospitals, but many of those middle class and lower income people depend on the Governments Health care system. The Governments Health care system. The government has done the government has done really well across india, given a lot of health support, but you have to think 1. 3 billion people and some of the cities are having 15 or 16 Million People and there are congested areas and that is one of the reasons why these number of cases are going up a really, really very fast. And i were there any indication, like we are seeing in other parts of the well, that some of those lockdown restrictions could be about backing now, given that the cases arising . Brought back in. Now, given that the cases arising . Brought back in. That is what some of the states and indebted, in the Southern City of china, the numbers are going up and they relaxed restrictions but if you did city of chennai and any number started going up, they reimposed lockdown in the city of chennai and then in the north east of india. Now they are talking about reimposing these very, very strict measures in cities across india, but what is now happening is whether the government needs to understand whether this is Community Transmission or if it is happening in isolated places and thatis happening in isolated places and that is one problem, the second is the stigma attached to this. Many people do not want to be tested because they think they will be isolated and ta ken because they think they will be isolated and taken to some government run centres and in many places, where you see in apartment blocks, the families to be isolated, so blocks, the families to be isolated, so there is a stigma attached to this coronavirus as well. Even though the government has come out and givena though the government has come out and given a lot of help to these Migrant Workers and poor people in terms of economic assistance, they cannot afford to keep the whole thing locked up for three orfour months because india is a developing country, millions of people depend on these daily wages. That is why the government is a very keen to revive the economy and remove the instructions so that they can allow people to earn my money remove the restrictions, but the challenge is how they will control it. Thank you very much. Well, plans to reopen the indias most iconic landmark, the taj mahal, on monday have been scrapped. Local officials ordered the extension of lockdown curbs on monuments around the Northern City of agra late on sunday. The shining marble mausoleum has been closed to the public since mid march. In the australian state of victoria, several breaches of hotel quarantine, have led to a spike in coronavirus cases. In melbourne, over 30 suburbs have been locked down, and 3000 residents living in Public Housing will not be able to leave their flats for 1h days. Sophia tran thomson has this report. Australia has so far weathered the coronavirus pandemic better than many other nations, with just 8,500 cases and 104 deaths. Since the end of march, all inbound travellers arriving in australia have had to do a compulsory 14 day quarantine at a government nominated hotel. The measures seemed to be working until reports emerged of security contractors in melbourne having sexual relations with guests and several people tested positive to the virus after release. Over the weekend, australia saw its biggest rise in coronavirus cases so far. With184 people testing positive in victoria, the government announced lockdown for over 30 melbourne suburbs and 3,000 residents living in Housing Estate tower blocks, where dozens of cases have been confirmed, have been told to stay inside their homes for two weeks. Residents say they had no notice and the arrival of hundreds of police enforcing the stay at home measures came as a complete surprise. There are a lot of people in these buildings that have, you know, pre existing Mental Health issues. Theres a lot of trauma that a lot of these people come from. A lot of them come from war torn countries, so i think, definitely, there are a lot of Vulnerable People that are going to be affected by this, and i really do hope that this doesnt extend to 1a days because theres going to be really harsh consequences on the Mental Health of a lot of people in these flats. Epidemiologists say the measures are necessary to contain the virus and that isolating small communities is easier than forcing the whole state into lockdown. I think this has made it clear that, you know, covid 19, is out there and itsjust waiting, and so we really do need to crack down very hard when it seems like the epidemic is starting to get out of control and starting to replicate very fast to try to get it back to a point where we are able to, if there is a case of covid 19, that were able to find and contact and trace and test all of the possible contacts of that individual person. Of that individual. While the authorities monitor cases and hope that the virus is still able to be contained, the government has announced a judicial inquiry investigating Victorias Hotel quarantine management.

Its reached a terrible milestone, surpassing 30,000 deaths. Social distancing is a challenge and because of a lack of testing, the numbers could be even higher. Translation it all depends on the area. In this area, you can see that people have theirface masks. The reality of the problem seems to, at times, run counter
