Well that is the heart but of course it could be a week 0212 we do say how these new restrictions influence the number of new corvette 19 cases but this really does show that the state of victoria is ramping up its efforts to make sure that people do stay inside their homes and wife from each other because they need to reduce the number of Community Transmissions of this virus to bring those numbers down and thats just not happening at the moment we have had new figures come out for monday which shows that more than 400 new cases have been recorded die off to die we have a new cases in the triple digits and that is why the premier Daniel Andrews has brought in tata restrictions and penalties for people doing the wrong thing one of the big problems is that many people who have tested positive to this far as has no its been isolated about one 3rd of people who have covert non tain want at horn the previous says when all 30 feet go to check on them and now they will be facing much high up penalties to make sure they are doing the right thing and also on top of that they will be more than 500. 00 extra a straggly in Defense Force personnel on the streets to make sure that people of buying the new restrictions and rules the 6 week lockdown will have huge economic implications not just for victoria state for the whole country said and with people been reacting.

At least 20 people including children have died in yemen where flash floods have swept through several provinces that gov is one of the worst affected 2 weeks of heavy rain has destroyed shelters and farms more than 2500 families of lost their homes and flooding and landslides in south korea have left at least 13 people dead and forced up to 2000 more from their homes much of the damage is in the region surrounding seoul and central parts of the country and more rain is forecast well correspondent rob mcbride joins us now from punch to thats northwest of seoul alongside the river rob so the weather there isnt pretty awful what impact these floods and landslides having in the south. Thats right now which we have a brief respite from the rains. Lightly but they are forecast tuesday afternoon you have more to write your rain forecast to be between 50 millimeters to 100. 00 millimeters per hour the interior of south korea is very hilly very mountainous terrain and since the weekend weve had these torrential rains that have been causing all sorts of problems with flash floods and also slides and mudslides and sadly the victims of it blew have died or people who are still missing have been caught in some of those mudslides its all being fed and made worse by the fact that we have this typhoon now in working its way through china it is downgraded dont going to be downgraded to a Tropical Storm but it is still feeding moisture into this weather system that stubbornly remain straddled across the Korean Peninsula with more rains forecast for basically the rest of this week and rob it is worth pointing out that the upstream part of the engine river is in north korea and this becomes a bit tricky doesnt it because how the north manages its water levels also affects the south. Thats right the river down here at the southern section if we connect to the zoom in it forms the border between north and south korea thats north korea on the other shore there but its there it does originate in north korea and its a way of relieving the pressure on the river in the north what the north tends to do is release large volumes of water from an upstream dam now that always causes a surge of water down here in the southern part and in fact back in 2009 they released so much water it led to 6 people dying here in the south they were simply swept away from the river banks since then the north and south of agreed look if youre going to release water you have to tell us here in advance and give us some warning which they do do as a matter of course but unfortunately at the moment of course all of the hotlines between north and south korea are down because of the souring of relations and the Unification Ministry here in the south which handles into Korean Affairs has said that in the past few weeks the north has released water 3 times and most recently yesterday monday now the release of the water has not caused Dangerous Levels here yet in the river but it is something that the off our cities are watching here carefully and of course the north korea is far more vulnerable to this storm they are predicting up to 500. 00 millimeters of rain before the end of the week obviously far more reliant upon agriculture which is far more vulnerable to storms and also many of its hillsides are simply forested and so they have more of a problem from mudslides and the slides in the north are right or wrong but brian live for us there and pleasure rob thank you for that.
