After several days of declining figures the number of new corona virus infections in china has risen again only 2000 more people were reported infected on sunday it comes as hundreds of people are being evacuated from the diamond princess cruise ship in japan the bessel holds the largest concentration of cases outside Mainland China american australian and new zealand citizens are being flown home and will be quarantined on arrival the virus has now claimed 1007 170. 00 lives on chinas mainland forcing some cities to tighten controls even even further south than the city with more than 2500. 00 cases of the virus has gone into a complete lockdown at an hong kong theres been reports of panic buying and one and students Armed Robbers still hundreds of toilet paper rolls trying to you this is live from beijing so katrina in some instances the numbers are jumping in certain other places are going down can you put this all in some perspective for us. Thats right so over the past 24 hours we saw 2000 new cases of the the coronavirus now according to government figures only 118 or so of those cases were cases outside of her bay province so although these numbers i can see continuing to rise inside of her elsewhere in china it seems like theyre dropping which is good news although we do have to take that with a grain of salt these are official figures we dont know if that captures everyone but it does seem to be positive but at the same time its monday here in china its a new working week and millions of people are expected to go back into the cities means people are expected to start leaving their homes if theyve been in self or indeed leaving the herbes getting on trains and planes and this of course presents a new challenge due to the authorities and because of this were seeing more measures put in place in beijing and shanghai for example if youve come back to the city from elsewhere in china or from overseas you must report to the authorities and youre supposed to put yourself into a cell for and youre supposed to stay home for 2 weeks and not go out unless you have a very good reason to go out and around the city the very strict monitoring of peoples movements everywhere you go theres temperature checks if you go into a shop or a restaurant they take your details that going into residential compounds is a little tight controls and in who by itself as you mentioned earlier there are still about 60000000 or so people in lockdown and its getting stricter in some cities or some residential compounds have sealed off the residential compound literally blocking any extra doors that they only have one entrance for people to enter and leave and people are told that they can only leave under if they have a very very good reason and the idea is to keep those who are safe and healthy away from those who may be infected but this is still in there still wall like measures in place and the government has indeed called this a peoples war theyve sent 1700 new military officials to want to help to help with. Deal with the outbreak to help with the the hospitals help with just sticks and things around but still we have in the country a lot of simmering frustration and anger as well around the fact that the government was too slow to act perhaps to contain this outbreak in the 1st place. Katrina do you live for us in beijing katrina thank you.

S. I need to be put into quarantine on that was. On the cruise line however theres some strict rules for them to actually we understand they will only be let off the ship on february the 19th we understand but they wont be allowed into the u. S. Until march the 4th but as far as this larger issue of the coronavirus in the u. S. Should you be scared it doesnt seem to be. An intense stage of tool really i think the main concern right now actually is among americans were getting reports of slowdown in businesses and chinatowns in new york chicago los angeles this just this country has a long history of xenophobia against Asian Americans and were seeing Community Leaders local leaders that look this isnt some ethnically. Ethnically based virus this is you know. Everyone should just stay come. At least 5 people have been killed by a car bomb in a turkish controlled town and syria 5 others were injured when it detonated in the town. Near the Turkish Border dozens of civilians have been killed by a number of car bombs since Turkish Backed forces drove out the kurdish wife and she fighters in october turkish state media have blamed the attack on the y peachey syrian state media reporting and the Government Forces have recaptured parts of aleppo province which was once controlled by rebels present forces have made significant gains over the past several days seizing the strategic m 5 highway which links aleppo with the major syrian cities turkey which backs a section of the opposition is trying to stop those advances and rebels who have left those areas in aleppo and neighboring it led now see and increased involvement as the only way to regain lost ground reports some attack on turkeys border with syria. These are finances from the National Liberation front a Rebel Alliance backed by turkey outgunned and outnumbered the fight is secret behind a new directive embankment on the other side of Government Troops are stepping up the campaign. Thought more about the major cities we are consolidating our defense lines setting up small flexible command centers where most of the factions are coordinating their operations and our enemies to drag Government Forces into our own areas fighting has surged over the last few days president Bashar Al Assads forces have regained control of many areas in and. Their advance infuriated turkey which accuses him of violating the terms of a cease fire agreement turkey signed with russia and iran 2 years ago. Has sent more troops into it and expanded its military outposts despite that damascus insists its campaign wont stop turkeys growing involvement in the syrian conflict is welcomed by the rebels who see it as an opportunity for a counter offensive. We are still fighting to prevent assads army and the militias backing him from destroying our villages and evicting civilians the morale of our fight is high and we are all determined to defeat assad the rebels have been weakened by internal fighting and divisions the National Liberation front is one among many things operating in rebel held territory. Is the most powerful its an alliance of many groups with a strong presence in it live. Joins us now from turkeys border with serious art and tell us more about. The ground that it seems the government is making. The got the rebels suffered another major setback in the province of aleppo now that theyve lost some of their strongholds in dayton. And none of these were some of the 1st areas the controlled back in 2012 and this is quite a significant setback for the rebels and the Government Forces are on the offensive and the continue to further expand that influence on the outskirts of aleppo the aim. These to move forward to words the northern and western parts of the problems that would link them up and that is going to be the main target for the Syrian Government in the near future they do understand that it librium is the last rebel stronghold and if the can defeat them and retake it would be the beginning of the end of the Syrian Opposition. So of course all of this means hundreds of thousands of people continue to be displaced what is the latest for what the kit civilians are going through. What tension is on the rise as we speak now im standing on the border with syria i can i can hear artillery shelling if its its quite a fast moving situation on the ground in the Syrian Government is on the move and this is creating a huge problem for the Syrian Opposition but also for the civilians who are trapped on those areas were talking about almost 200000 civilians who were forced out of their villages over the last few days into the almost 1000000 refugees trapped on the border with turkey and this people have nowhere to go this is going to be extremely different delicate scenario in the past the used to move from the villages to rebel held territory but this time theres no such thing as a rebel held territory if the rebels lose and these people have been asking the International Community for help they dont have blankets they dont have stoves they dont have clothes they dont have food and they live in makeshift tents across the border with turkey the problem is formal or just logistical perspective you cant move to those areas because the fighting is underway precisely of those areas in the southern west the northern parts of aleppo and also on the outskirts of it it is a very delicate situation for the International Committee the biggest concern if the fighting continues over the last few days we could be bracing for the worst humanitarian crisis in syria since the start of the conflict 9 years ago ok. Turkey syria border thank you.
