Correspondent correspondent bastian hot issue is on the german austrian border in the town of kiefers feldon from way he joins me now best in a big day way you border controls have there been further ages to what exactly is the situation there. Yes so as you can see its really quiet here and that mainly has to do with the fact that the police are no longer checking every single car that wants to cross the border as they did until last night now its more random controls here every once in a while they fact out a car pull them over to see if they still have if they have a valid reason to cross the border because you still need that so up until yesterday or up until last night those reasons were for example commuters who were commuting for work or german residents who wanted to return home now thats been expanded somewhat and now it also includes people for example who want to visit their loved ones and their families on the other side of the border rebecca yes theres some restriction still in place but largely reopened again whats the significance for those who can cross. Right so for a lot of people it makes life a lot easier before there was a young man he was coming from italy and he told us that he wanted to visit his girlfriend whos pregnant and beef before the easing of the restrictions it was a little harder for him to actually do that he needed a letter from the doctor saying that she was pregnant and that he wanted to visit her now he doesnt need that anymore all he needs to do is make a credible create a credible case to the officers at the checkpoint and if they believe him theyll theyll let him go let him pass and if they dont however then they will send they will turn the people back in and they will escort them back with a Police Escort back to austria but for a lot of people.

The number of indias confirmed coronavirus cases has a pos chinas climbing to nearly 86000 infections but so far the death rate in india pays better compared to china Indian HealthOfficials Say that could be because most people infected were either asymptomatic or have mild symptoms the countrys swift and fast shutdown is also credited with preventing a worst outbreak the government is set to decide on whether to extend indias nearly 7 week lock down. More on this now i am joined by india correspondent maisha giants far from delhi in the mission the caseload is higher than in china now does this mean of the countrys likely to extend lockdown missions by rebecca looks like the opposite and facts right now yes toward thieves are not on lockdown and still moral on sunday and. Indicated that all of the easing is likely on one day already over the last 2 weeks people have been allowed to come out more. Officers have started off in some capacity and it seems that just what theyve actually might bring some limited public transport background at all it seems have already started running it seems that the government seems very confident despite the hike use the word again perhaps indicating the low deficit and the high have to come to india as a reason why to use this. Now were getting some early word from the eye of pain news agency about the conditions in one of mumbais hospitals that theyre.

That actually is the consigning given that you think its happening the government has been in gas tramping not going anywhere increasing its the equal to a production. And we have the capital and you have anything that open up everything well. Enough that the movie should do handlers right but then we have reports like in mumbai whats the through the speech part where theyre seen one by has done out of maharashtra astute mumbai skin has all been a total india has uses this saying that what he bags like in hospitals alongside relations and this is of course very concerned me and well again have to see what exactly is actually going to be the direction we should let. In how intense the out. Now the poor unsurprisingly have been particularly hard hit especially Migrant Workers and were saying lots of devastating cases it is help on the way. Back when the government has announced a stimulus package which it seems the stent percent of g. D. P. This is targeted at Small Business those farmers and might theres going to be looting and distribute it quite often but again and again getting visionless on exodus from india has been centered on my clients the government has started. Over the last couple of weeks the. News of trying to just only have to be 24 why dont. You know what accidents over the last 2 weeks have been similar deaths reported all 50 deaths across the country so definitely the hell that is on but we need to get to these people more urgently and transport needs to be abused so that they can see me get well without infecting others but also make it back to. Me to us from delhi thanks very much. Well the long wait is almost over for bundesliga fans german football is returning after a 2 month suspension due to the corona Virus Outbreak of course theres been much talk about hygiene and empty stadiums but what about the actual football dorman take on shelter in a crunch local derby today while League Leaders by new nic are in action tomorrow brasier dortmund players will leave this tunnel later today and see exactly this a stadium empty of fans but despite the lack of atmosphere there will be plenty of passion on the pitch as the blunders leader resumes title challenges dortmund face arch local rivals shelter in german football big darby coach Lucien Farber expects it to be a surreal experience sure this is why i think this situation is a huge challenge for all coaches and all teams but we know what we have to do this is our job so we asked for having to wear a mask on the sidelines weve got to do it. Mysen best. The last time 2nd place dortmund played a game in a packed stadium they boosted their outside title hopes with a 21 victory over brucia mention glad back a well worked winner from ash rafa kimi was symbolic of their attacking berth but shelter often raise their game against dortmund players masks will be off for the darby as David Wagners side look to continue their push for a european spot. Training has been tweaked in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic. Distance has been kept where possible but the tackles are likely to fly again storm and despite the eerie surroundings there we can honestly use the darbys that are very different to this with a full house and a great atmosphere. Is not to say its a real shame if theres no other way to do it then so be it was notice or flew into there without fans weve got to try and push ourselves somehow to push. The bundesliga played one game without fans in march when cloud back took on cologne as the Coronavirus Crisis began to hit but this weekend will be totally new for most of the players who have been quarantined in hotels during the week to try to avoid infection. Leaders by munich face a tricky trip to lyn on sunday they are keeping themselves away from the cameras for now the defending champions of 4 points above dortmund with 9 games left but the title run in will be like nothing we have seen before. Now and ahead of that downbeat clash in dortmund data davis van up top is outside the stadium to give us an idea of what the well lack of atmosphere has like today and i was one of the stranger days whats the mood to there in dortmund well Rebecca Darby between dortmund and shock is the biggest in germany so the fact that outside the stadium is a ghost town is strange to say the least now that hasnt stopped pedestrians from stopping by and taking pictures to document this unique situation but other than that its been completely empty ahead of this ghost game as the germans call at the start of the point is the so people sticking to the rules there but for such a big match were there concerns that large groups of fans would converged outside the stadium anyway. Well because there is a big Police Presence as well as a presence of stewards outside of the city im but dortmunds fan seen has said in march when the match was originally supposed to take place that they would not be attending the game encouraged other bruiser dortmund fans to do the same now there have been rumors that dortmunds far right scene might try to take advantage of the event taking place to further their own agenda in terms of protest in the coronavirus 6 restrictions but when it comes to fans none not many if any are expected today right so weve no fans inside the stadium and a lot of rules in place to avoid fans forming the front of the stadium and physical contact and all of those things what will it be like for the players during the dobie well of course this is the 1st game for both of these teams since the coronavirus hiatus so many of the players will be happy to get back on the field but the football that they experienced in the 1st 25 match days of the season will be completely different this afternoon theyre being discouraged from hiking handshakes and speeding during the game now of course in football there is going to be contact in terms of tackles and challenges in a corner routines a free kick for teams but both the players and the referees have been instructed to try to cut down on any non essential contact that might take place during the game davis fan opt out of speaking to us live from dolan thanks very much.
