Now the americans who have been stranded aboard the diamond princess cruise ship lets look at them this is the ship that was quarantined in a japanese port the people have now arrived on evacuation flights to the United States. But some of them are carrying the coronavirus the flights had been chartered by the state department and repat treated more than 300 americans all up all of them now in government courting the support. And all in the norm for the u. S. Government original plan had been to keep off the planes anyone suspected of or known to be carrying the coronavirus but thats not how things turned out the state Department Says all 338 americans evacuated from the diamond princess cruise ship had appeared healthy when they disembarked but during the 40 minute bus ride to the 2 awaiting cargo planes the Japanese Health ministry called with news that 14 passengers had tested positive for corona virus american officials then decided to allow those passengers to continue with the evacuation isolating them behind white curtains near the planes tails other passengers then boarded the route were down here or on the morning or there for good we go through pretty miserable where theres a massive row and everybody had to go to the ramp or im on the far side of this with revising their private 5 hours away to get off for a. Crazy crazy while on the buses the infected and apparently healthy passengers had mixed given that they were still on a learning curve well iris i think you have Public Health missions and they could recognizing that the alternative leaving them on the ship was not. By the time they landed in california and texas 5 apparently healthy passengers had developed infection symptoms now all the evacuees are in coron teen with 13 high risk cases transported to the university of Nebraska Medical Center well theres been no documentation that came with them so everything is been sort of passed along and passed along you know and theyve had a very long journey so i think were not going to make any assumptions about anything thats passed along virtually were going to go ahead and just test everybody by the governments numbers 5 of the evacuees who tested positive in japan are being treated at undisclosed hospitals near military bases meanwhile a number of Americans Still remain aboard the diamond princess in japan they had turned down the offer to vacuum wait and instead hope to complete their corn teen on board the ship then news now that they were 14 infected people on the flight with everyone else has just confirmed to us that they were really providing a safe method of transportation back to the United States the u. S. State department has completed a half dozen evacuation flights from asia since the coronaVirus Outbreak began those other evacuations happened as planned but this latest incident draws scrutiny to the u. S. Governments response and nearly double the number of confirmed coronavirus cases in the u. S. Overnight hi joe castro aljazeera washington right so those are the stories of the americans who have been evacuated as we point out there are people who havent gabrielle are dealing with us hopefully now on skype from the ugandan student can you hear me right deborah. Good to talk to you right so we want to understand from you as best as possible what is quarantine mean for you youre there in your apartment can you get house of the asshole. As of last week monday their rules are met must treat we are allowed to move out of apartments once a week you need to get permission from. The. Landlady before you can move out and all the investments are being sealed off youre not allowed to go on campus if you dont stay on campus so we currently locked in our houses even look at the downstairs in the photograph apartment. Buildings so they are and thats how thats what parenting is for and that actually locks the gate so you are physically locked in yes thats extraordinary and then when you do get out what are you able to do i mean youre obviously only got a short period of time what have you managed to do in the time that you have gotten out the times i do get to go and look for food from down your a supermarket because theres always a supermarket mean that area thats open on the up while im in the area right now way im theres only one spot market thats open so when everyone when you get your permission to go out and you find like a long lost probably go find when the vegetables they dont so you need to go up. Now what about medical checks i mean youre under quarantine are there officials or medical staff from anywhere and will harm coming to you to check on you to i dont know take temperatures see if you are showing any signs. They have given us numbers hard lengths that we dont call me this year feeling unwell so thats what is going on so far. I havent felt well so i mentioned he reached out for help here so i really dont know how they do that but if you are willing number that you can call this you feel im up for any of your friends affected i mean are they ok. Im just wondering if anyone is is under quarantine and under any juris anyway from from illness or from anything i mean its just it just sounds like a very difficult situation for anyone yet its difficult during our prayers to be egos all the time but none of my friends are effected were all looking were just always a little you know apartments which is. Staying indoors all alone all the time but thats what we have to do is stay safe now tell me about efforts to get out as we pointed out there are governments that have repatch reacted the citizens and your government the uganda government is one that hasnt what sort of contact have you had with anyone representing the ugandan government. Will have gone through. The embassy they are going to never see it as a sort of being brought up in the parliament in uganda and all that means those are aware of whats going on and they are well we are praying for evacuation but we say they come to book you wait thats because they dont think they are able to contain the virus in case it broke out in uganda so they decided to send us money but money d is not really what we need i know the other hand is that they were able to quarantine the other ministers who came from china and went to uganda so get your books pointing to. The me he says but i dont understand why they dont do the same thing for us the students think its ok we can still pointing and so we went up to the media so i only know about the situation. And how does that make us sorry this sounds like a stupid question how does it make you feel when you see other foreign nationals who have governments who are helping the citizens honestly makes me feel im green makes me feel like i dont like that to the country oh my legs dont matter they dont care i mean. Yeah. Its not actually the best decision and if you look you were going to still be mitt and its best look at mendo is they have been dont treat us like that if we get. You said the governments talked about sending money and you say obviously thats not actually what you want but if you seen has anyone seen any of that money yet no we havent received the money it. So no money locked in your apartment and no sign of actually getting out. Do you mind if i ask about your sort of your mental state at the moment and that of your friends just trying to understand what its like i missed leo. Go ahead go ahead of the moment. As of last week no less to close feeling down could you feel it shut up do you feel like you quote do anything you have in your parents call you every minute and get worried about you and really come to nothing about it you know here you can put going on you dont know if theyre going to be next if youre doing it dont know if its really cement you dont know if youre going to fix it if you just wait. Its really the main thing to us and what sort of information are you able to get we talked about officials who might come by and check in theres a hotline but i mean i guess youre sitting in your apartment reading about it online or watching television and is that all you can do. Yes thats all im going to eschew the vision exercise eat cool. Well that inflammation the school sends us the information they send those give us the numbers that weve been calling needle the chip on that so it teaches chiclet nice big clothes and see if we need anything well look ive really hope things improve for you and that you do get some sort of progress with the ugandan government and really thank you so much for your time today for telling us what we lost the signal anyway fascinating wasnt hearing from deborah and i did on a ugandan who is in. On able to get out of the city under lockdown lets move on to other news the European Union is to launch new sea and air patrols in the Eastern Mediterranean to try to stop more weapons from reaching libyas warring sides this is a major breakthrough after weeks of negotiations as our diplomatic editor james meigs reports from geneva. Foreign ministers of the European Union meeting in brussels have decided in principle to start monitoring illegal arms flows to libya however theyve also actually cancelled an already mandated e. U. Mission operation saffir that used to have ships in the mediterranean from 2015 to deter migrants until the naval vessels were withdrawn as a result of a talian pressure instead of retard skiing that help aeration they now have to set up a new naval and air mission which may even need fresh u. N. Security council authorization it could all take months to find some of the International Arms embargo isnt the only major problem affecting peace efforts in libya in the coming hours talks will resume here at the u. N. In geneva between 5 representatives of the internationally recognized government in tripoli and 5 from general have to decide to try and get a cease fire can you give us a readout of how they went the governments representative at the u. N. In new york libyan ambassador sunny told me the previous round of talks had been far from easy and theres a lot of issues that we dont need and together but there are some parts that as mentioned from the u. N. Led process that could be a breakthrough but im still. Have to be cautious because we notice that there are certain elements that we look into in terms of the return of i. D. P. s the area and where the withdrawal areas are these are things that are still and good discussions and are not clear yet at the Munich Security Conference the u. N. Has its deputy special representative in libya made it clear if they can silence the guns the plan is for wider political talks in just over a weeks time james pays out 0 jinnie. I spoke to jason pak a little bit earlier founder of Libya Analysis which is a consultancy focusing on the shipping and oil industry there he told us the new e. U. Patrols will have no impact without proper surveillance if they were actually serious about using the new operation quote active surveillance to truly block arms coming in by boat they have the technical capacity to do that but these are just pretty words because last month on january 19th and berlin there was the highest level summitry ever done on libya with many Prime Ministers present and they said the right they not the correct latitudes were going to crack down on all of the arms shipments coming into libya but since that point there have been more our shipments the u. A. E. Fly jets and benghazi but me not and the turks using naval assets to get money to get weapons to misrata and tripoli and those have been more our shipments since the berlin conference here in banning them then were happening before whats important is actually doing surveillance in other words not just blocking things by boat but this ship is one actor is caught you need to do sanctions on all actors because its not like you just petrik Turkish Naval ships and you punish the turks that wont work that would just reward them or audition the russians so if youre going to enforce the blockade you need to catch all actors and the uns humanitarian coordinator for libya says the latest diplomatic push to end that conflict there will amount to nothing unless the International Community names and shames the countries who are helping to prolong the war. Singled out the United Arab Emirates russia and egypt for van support the world honey for have to. And lest we start naming and shaming we will have their resolutions but their reality on the ground will remain appalling is patiently for civilians and but to killers for children and for women and for people who yes they live because they have done absolutely no wrong except being libyan in their country so as the sides prepare to resume their talks in geneva libyans have been marking 9 years since the start of the revolution that ultimately led to this very conflict and as the fighting drags on people are finding little to celebrate charles strap that has that report from misrata. Thousands of people flooded into martyr square in central tripoli a place named in honor of the many fighters who were killed in a revolution that eventually topple moammar gadhafi. That tater who ruled libya for more than 40 years after the kremlin 1st of all id like to congratulate all our libyan brothers and sisters on the anniversary of the revolution a message today is the same we had back on february 17th 2011 we want freedom let me say again freedom justice and a democratic civilian state. But 9 years later libya is far from that instead a country suffering civil war really gay general Khalifa Haftar is offensive to take control of tripoli with the u. N. Backed government is based goes on ceasefire calls ignored hundreds of civilians killed will no 150000 people forced to flee their homes. In misrata east of tripoli the city proud of its role in ending gadhafi is rule and where the majority of the u. N. Backed Government Forces come from celebrations marking the revolution also loud and joyous. But people were quick to describe general huffed as another potential dictator who is holding libyas development back said i want peace for libya i want good for the people of libya we dont want any more war long haul it never left our is killing our children and displacing so many people we rise for this revolution with our brothers and aced for nothing else but to bring a civilian government to libya. The International Airport in tripoli was again forced the close today because of what Authorities Say was shelling close call a bike off the school says despite the celebrations on these very special day marking the start of the revolution that overthrew the no i in the years ago libyans remain very afraid for their future because there seems to be no last thing political solution to this most recent crisis in sight charles travel aljazeera misrata is whats coming up for you on this news on leaks of records showing how chinese officials choosing to target weaker muslims and putting them in mass Detention Centers also a massacre in an already tense English Speaking part of countering separatists blame the army the army denies responsibility and the top team in asia impresses in its defense of the Champions League title football action and the rest of the school with.
