Would like to us for such a time out here you they have been in the front lines for the miners are exhausted general allen darwin joins us now live from manila so gemma is there are they heading back into the long run we just emerged from when was in june i think. Well so i mean what the what the Health Workers were asking for is a return to what they call an enhanced Community Quarantine or in fact they told the lockdown of metro manila and nearby provinces that something that the president did not give to them in his address sunday night what he basically said is that they will implement a stricter lockdown policy in megaman the and many other areas which means that the mystic flights will be postponed there will be no public transport which is already limited in the 1st Place International flights coming in and getting out of the philippines will also be limited now as you see sadly the philippines already implemented one of the world the strongest and most strict this lockdowns and that started in early march and ended a few months ago when the cases where around 18000. 00 the government decided to ease restrictions hoping basically to allow people to go out to to help buffer the economy basically its really feeling the impact of this crisis however the call that was made by Health Doctors was a. Call that message was very very clear they say hospitals are at full capacity and frontline medical workers really do need breathing space theyre asking for a lockdown in order to slow down and special as they see hoping that they will allow some of them basically to have a break to handle the growing number of cases given that there is no massive besting or tracing at the moment here sam what about the Economic Impact so this must be very worrying. Well it is that in fact the impact on the philippine economy has been felt as early as months ago when the pandemic broke out where over 2000000 filipinos had already lost their jobs over 100000 filipinos have already returned from abroad theyve come back with no past prospects of jobs and also at the same time over 100000 filipinos have yet to return the government is working on the repatriation within the next 2 months now the government also said already that there wont be any cash aid given to anyone in the coming months that the governments funding at this point is tight and the economic recession has officially started one of the worst in recent years thanks so much john.

Officials say there were several explosions including a suicide car bomb outside the prison in the city of jalalabad Afghan Security forces are locked in a gun battle with the attackers several prisoners escaped during the fighting i saw claimed responsibility for hobby board work is a National Security analyst and Founding Member of transparency afghanistan he joins us now from kabul good to have you with us so why the attack on the prison in car on jalalabad. So d. D. Sponsibility of the attack has been claimed by the Islamic State and its believed that you have a vast amount of die. Members who are imprisoned in this very prison so the diet has taken responsibility the primary motive could be to make sure that to sort of release the president and this is what they have done the initial reports that we have is that there are about 1500. 00 prisoners and the prison and 500. 00 of them have been able to escape which the government claims that they were able to sort of captured them or after the evade the prison and they are and they have been captured all over again so the primary motive just like i said could be that di di ish wanted to have its members out of the prison di is jalalabad is located in eastern afghanistan this is where the strongholds of the guy who are since 20142015 could not or province nuristan province like one province and their number are province is this instant aid into where you had been presence of. And this is where a majority of the president s are kept and perhaps didnt want it to infiltrate and have their Prisoners Released or do what this this say that about the ability and status of eisel. As you say. If this isnt the their work. So there are 2 messages that could be sort of taken from what has happened in jalalabad one is that you had numerous press to mens press releases speeches of various government officials this includes president connie this includes the National Security adviser over a no word sort of bragging about the defeat of dilution of honest gun and how the african government have done so well and eliminating eradicating and uprooting diffendorfer of die and what has happened today is basically contradicting the claims of the government dietitians proven that they have the ability to inflict damage to the Afghan Government and inflict damage wet and the heart of one of understands me and important. The other message that is being passed on is that the United States of america the Afghan Government and the taliban are basically a step shard of starting the intra honey who she is shins the other message could be right here is that its not just the taliban you have other elements which are basically. A huge tied to the survival of the Afghan NationalSecurity Forces is just not the taliban you also have guy shoots also falls to reckon with. A few basically get into an agreement with the taliban whats going to happen to defuse on or defeat of the guy because just like the government has claimed that they have taken care of that they have been uprooted and what they have done in jalalabad is due to be contradicting each other or i thanks so much good to get your analysis have a lot of back.
