Remain the top priority for all countries the dirty h. O. Says containment is key as infections outside of china balloon and forecasters warn the coronavirus could harm Global Economic growth. Tens of thousands of refugees mostly from syria have been trying to reach greece either on foot or by boat the wave of people follows techies decision to suspend a migrant deal reached with europe 4 years ago jones reports now from the greek island of lesbos which once again finds itself on the front line of the refugee crisis 7. Asylum seekers stranded on the north shores of lesbos some have spent the night out in the open the police cant process them at the only refugee camp on the island in moria its been blockaded by angry islanders who wanted shutdown but moreas occupants arent happy to be here either. This was the latest of many riots this year asylum processing is slow and many have been living in tents under the olive trees for a year really dark said it didnt sound very good doctor and i am certain of that this is very difficult for everyone to set every not that i got for example the good ones are pretty dark that this is very important hundreds of morias Asylum Seekers recently much down to the port after. Even misleading or mistaken messages that the government was evacuating them to Athens Police had to turn them back this tense situation is likely to become worse as turkey has opened its border and is advice ing refugees on its soil to go to europe thats the reason why this 15 year old from afghanistan is here he says that i have been in turkey for 2 months the smuggler called me in the night and said the boat is ready get ready to cross over he said the border is open i could not cross for 2 months because the border was closed this video released by the turkish government suggests that the greek coast guard is no longer conducting just search and rescue missions but actively repelling boatloads of migrants greek coast guard vessels can be seen driving perilously close to small dinghies at another point it appears shots are fired into the water greece has released video that appears to show Turkish Coast guard vessels accompanying migrant boats to greek waters rather than holding them back until now greece and turkey were both working to keep undocumented migrants out of europe turkeys suspension of that arrangement has led to the suspension of other International Norms greece has declared emergency measures it says it will stop receiving asylum applications for one month and in many cases it will turn around undocumented migrants and send them home without the usual reception and identification procedures so it will be as though these people were never here gree says these new arrivals arent individual applicants but part of an organized policy so International Asylum law doesnt apply to them as intended with so many islands so close to the turkish mainland greece has a difficult task defending its maritime border but the biggest losers in all this seem to be the Asylum Seekers jumps on opera los aljazeera lesbos. Turkish president richard is being accused of using the refugee crisis as leverage in an effort to force europe to support his operation in syrias italy i curse as it will continue to target Syrian Army Positions in the province after 34 of its soldiers were killed there last thursday the turkish army has been reinforcing its positions in it live with more military hardware escalating tension has meant that turkey and russia have come closer than ever to direct confrontation in syria but both sides have sought to ease tensions. This is our system. I like to call on russia and iran one more time we do not have any problem with you and syria. But if the Syrian Government forces do not withdraw turkey has determined as soon as possible they will not have a heat lift on their shoulders backed by russia assads forces have been trying to retake it labe the last rebel held area since december on monday they entered parts of the strategic town of sarky but turkish drones have been hitting their positions russias Defense Military says its military police had also entered the area due to its importance for security which malabar is on in hatay on turkeys border with syria and has more on edge of ones military operation. This explains why hes been defiant today saying that Operation Spring shield will continue warning the Syrian Government against tough retaliation if they continue their offensive and asking them to pull out from behind the Demilitarized Zone so the Turkish Military is continuing its operation particularly in the it will probably however i think this is going to be a chance also for turkish president to see whether the russians are willing for some sort of a compromise and this explains why president atlanta was saying today that if the cease fire was to be implemented in the syrian troops pulled behind the Demilitarized Zone that could be conducive to a new deescalation and you political settlement that will put an end to the escalation of that weve been seeing over the last few days in the area so on one hand he had to show how aggressive he is when it comes to Operation Spring shilled and that this is going to continue in the upcoming days but earth same time he was reaching out to president Vladimir Putin saying that this could be our last chance when we meet on the 5th of march to try to diffuse the tension. Israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu appears to be on the verge of victory in the countrys general election the exit polls are suggesting netanyahu is right really could party has gained 37. 00 seats and the party of his rival for the position of Prime Minister and against his blue and white a projected to get 33 seats while the arab joint list which is mostly backed by israeli palestinians have secured 15 seats or the secular nationalist yes rove but a new lead by a men predicted to gain 6 seats which cross not a high force it to he had been diminished now whos headquarters in tel aviv whats the reaction there been. Well theres been a very celebrates 3 mood here ever since that 1st exit poll came out and its grown and swelled since weve heard in the last few minutes that bench not you know itself is on his way here to speak to his supporters here this is a pretty extraordinary victory for someone whos been suffering from all sorts of troubles and failures and defeats over the last year the 1st election he won but then his right wing bloc splintered with the decision by his old friend ally and rival the to do leave him and to leave that bloc sparking the 2nd election he lost that 2nd election after that election he was indicted officially in 3 separate Corruption Cases benny gantz that of the blue and White Alliance has been running on the message that its time to get rid of an indicted Prime Minister throughout this year and yet israeli voters have indorsed to in pretty big fashion again israels longest serving Prime Minister as you say those election. Exit polls suggested that he is one some 37 seats. But it also suggests that hes one seat short of getting the 61. 00 seats including the allies obviously could party the right wing bloc required for a functioning Coalition Government so the question now turns to exactly how he maneuvers if those numbers stay the same how he moves in the coming days and weeks whether he tries to go for a unity government. Despite the fact that many guns he said that he wont sit with him whether he tries to poach individuals or come up with some other arrangement however this is a huge endorsement just 2 weeks before his trial is due to start. Before september the time being thank you very much indeed imran khan as for invents for a set the blue and white Party Headquarters of the me a pretty different mood there. Salute lee let me just show you a Party Celebration at the could. Very subdued and in fact very few in fact. I can see in that main stage area of the supporters of blue and white this has been described as a very disappointing night very tragic night for the party itself they were expecting to do much better than the exit polls would suggest if those exit polls hold then theyll be a real rethink about strategy about what blue and white will do next what benny gantz leader of blue and white will do next that they are telling us that they were very disappointed in the voter turnout in tel aviv an urban area a stronghold for the blue and white party and they say that may well have had a huge impact they need to just take a look at the actual polling results when they come out but they also say that netanyahu got to 60 seats in his right Wing Coalition in april he was unable to form a government so theyre not down theyre not out theyre still looking to plan ahead to fix. What they can do to try to make it very difficult for him to be able to form that government get that one seat that puts him over the line and gives him that magic number of 61 but generally speaking and you can just see you know it is a very disappointing night for blue and white now bet against the leader is supposed to be speaking here at some point during the night im sure theyll be supporters of his here by then but right now a very subdued out as iran can thank you very much. The World Health Organization says new data shows the corona Virus Outbreak is now advancing faster in countries other than china new cases in china dropped to their lowest levels in 6 weeks on monday but continue to rise in south korea italy and iran senegal saudi arabia choosier jordan and indonesia most recent countries to detect cases of the disease but overture says the best offense is still containment. In the last 24 hours there with almost 9 times more cases reported outside china and inside china we see an unchartered territory we have never seen before just respiratory partridge and thats capable of Community Transmission but at the same time which can also be contained with the right measures here in the u. K. The government has warned it could be a significant increase in the number of cases meanwhile the death toll from coronavirus in italy has risen by 18 in the past 24 hours the number of fatalities to 52 and the number of cases there has exceeded 2000 trying to hold as more. With the steady worsening of the situation in italy and the spread of the virus to other Member States in the e. U. I can tell you that the European Union has raised its Risk Assessment for covered 19 warning now of a moderate to high risk of sustained transmission among e. U. Member states all in all 20042400 cases reported across 18 Member States of course the worst of those as you were saying there is italy in those numbers represent a jump by 18 in the death toll in italy to 52 over the past 24 hours and indeed the number of transmissions jumping from 1694 yesterday on sunday to 2336 so things are certainly not slowing down in italy but important to note that the outbreak in italy remains confined to a number of hotspots in the north of the country so call it isnt nation wide there are individual isolated cases across the rest of the country and it is that sort of pattern of contagion of transmission of this virus and to some extent the evidence that it can be contained that led dr to address the director general of the World Health Organization earlier in his Daily Press Briefing to give a somewhat more upbeat assessment than weve been hearing lately pointed to the fact that this virus is unique both in the fact that it can be transmitted human to human but also in the fact that it can be contained. Adviser to irans Supreme Leader has died from the corona virus as the disease continues to ravage the country 66 people have died or the number of cases stands at more than 1500 britain germany and france have offered a package worth more than 5 and a half 1000000. 00 to help iran a w. H. O. Has arrived in tehran to support their partys response. This gentleman who passed away mohamed mir mohamed he was in his seventys so at risk of certainly succumbing to the virus at risk of of passing away and unfortunately that is whats happened he was a member of the Expediency Council and a group of advisors to the Supreme Leader made up of technocrats military officers government officials and since the beginning weve seen that the government has been largely affected at least 20 members of government at least 20 Senior Leaders biased and its here in iran have come in contact with this disease have come under it have contracted the coronavirus since this began and this includes the Vice President a female member of president of the on his cabinet as ive said m. P. s deputies spokespeople and one of the reasons we might be seeing this is because the corona Virus Outbreak happened in tandem with the timing of the parliamentary election here in the country a few weeks ago so weve seen many Senior LeadersMany Political players serious political players would have been going to cold ground 0 for the disease here in this country for this virus in iran and the reason they were going to hold regularly during the time of the election is because poland is a city of religious seminaries and because of the religious form of government here in iraq it is a Major Political heartland so you would have seen people going there to take part in and out electioneering to take part in trying to get support and funding for their candidates and for their parts and that is one of the reasons weve seen that this coronaVirus Outbreak here in iraq has had exponentially more impact on leaders here in the country. In a moment well have more on the Economic Impact of the outbreak out of all of a secretive chechens south korea plus. The u. N.
