Moving on and lebanons president has raised the possibility of external interference and she has days put glastonbury michel aoun a rest addressed the nation a short time ago and valuing an investigation into whether the blast was caused by negligence an accident or even a rocket or a bomb but the government is facing widespread anger and accusations of mismanagement and corruption 157. 00 people have now been confirmed dead but its math reports from beirut. Armies of volunteers are on the streets of beirut. Sweeping clearing digging. Theyre filling the gap left by the state. Which is conspicuous by its absence. We had an i. T. Company here times were tough before tuesdays explosion now she says she cant see any future here. I i am in this. So i 1st. See im 30. And both come pick me up from 25 years. I work here outside this is the 1st time i. I see Something Like that. Lebanons president michel own says an investigation into the explosion will look at whether it was caused by negligence or external interference through a rocket or bomb or other act whatever it was in beirut they want to know why 2700 tons of Ammonium Nitrate was stored in an urban area. When the Ammonium Nitrate ignited the shock wave instantly crossed the city leaving beirut looking like a place but after just 5 seconds of support from the years of conflict. Frustration and anger boiled over on thursday night and there were some small protests near lebanons parliament. But most people here have been focused on cleaning up for now the government says reconstruction costs will run to at least 15000000000. 00. This is a country that was already on its knees because of a deep economic crisis and a currency that has lost 80 percent of its value in less than a year we dont have a government to look after us and doing the least either we donate food oaklawn blood even our abutment. Were trying to see people if they need help within our street thats the least we can do the government is in capital and capable of helping us so we the people are coming here to do to help our comrades and then levanon and were coming from the north all of us where were like 78 people were coming from 90 kilometers north north of beirut and were here just to stand by the people the blast has left at least 300000 people homeless many will rely on relatives or friends to take them in. More than 150 people have been killed and there are many missing foreign search teams are leading the delicate task of trying to find survivors under the rubble more than 5000 people have been injured. 19 people have been arrested in the investigation into the warehouse explosion including the beirut port manager but for many in this city the finger of blame is pointed at the very top of government. Bernard smith aljazeera bay ridge well thats now listen to just what president michel aoun had to say. This accident is a wake up call as i said it could be an act of negligence all we have another possibility it could be a rocket attack or a bomb attack i personally requested from the french president if they were in possession of any aerial footage to kindly provide us with it in order to identify any aerial attack or missile attack if any and now the head of the Lebanese Armed Group Hezbollah has denied storing weapons at the blast site has called for a transparent investigation and for whoever is found responsible to be held to account is uncertain the i would like to emphasize that hezbollah categorically refutes and rejects that we have materials at the seaport not a single bullet more weapon ammunition or a bomb nothing at all belongs to hezbollah or even the materials and the Ammonium Nitrate that does not belong to hezbollah and. I believe that there is a consensus amongst all lebanese that a complete comprehensive transparent and fair investigation must take place and those responsible will be firmly justly and swiftly penalized on our returning to our top story of that crash in kerala we can now speak with Regev Deborah she is the editor in chief of carola based t.

C. This is part of an executive order that was signed by the u. S. President last month so even though he is out of town. Implementing this in now it is being rolled out what this means is that kerry lamb the chief executive along with the others who have been named in these latest sanctions by the United States against some chinese officials is that their assets here in the United States will essentially be frozen now the treasury secretary in announcing this released a statement saying that this is being done because the United States stands with the people of hong kong will use all tools and authority to target those who he believes and the United States believes are undermining hong kong autonomy leave illustrations strategy clearly in advance of the u.

President has targeted china since the beginning with regard to the trade relationship but things had started to improve then cope with 1000. 00 hit millions of americans are out of work so it is clear that as a reelection strategy blaming china for those job losses a big part of it so weve seen a whole host of actions as recently as yesterday we saw even more the administration putting in place executive orders a broad sweeping restrictions on to social Media Networks chat as well as tech talk and also an executive order mandating that the u. S. Government now buy drugs from American Companies why this has an impact on china is that previously so much of that had come from china and the u. S.

Shes alarmed by Donald Trumps executive order to ban tick tocks use there unless the app is sold to an american company.

Government says its cracking down on chinese apps which it says spread propaganda and pose a Security Risk to americans beijing says the move is a pretext for suppressing chinese tech companies. The relevant u. S. Approach has no factual basis at all its clearly mirroring on a political many. The point of it all is to maintain the ovaries high tech industry. By dons tick tocks Parent Company is in talks to sell the app to microsoft washington has given it 45 days to confirm the sale to deny sharing data with the communist party and is threatening legal action against the Us Government it isnt the only chinese in the firing line messenger we chat which has 1100000000. 00 users worldwide is also facing a ban the banning of which that is likely to cause problems for chinese users and businesses dealing with china from the us here the platform is more than a social media its used to buy products invest in shares book travel and even tech a persons covert 19 Health Status washington is expanding its socalled Clean Network initiative which aims to root out Major Chinese Tech Products from the u.

A city in the u. K. Is becoming a Success Story of how a team effort can help to battle the coronavirus theres been a surge of localized cases in liverpool but instead of a blanket lockdown its just shut down small pockets of the city and volunteers are playing a big role in ensuring that people often dont sleep reports. These are the streets where the virus is thriving its been moving house to house often transmitted by children to their parents or grandparents or living under the same roof in other places this would have led to the city being locked down but here they refuse to instead they localized the lock down to the smallest possible area we are doing this with and through our community rather than to our community and that way were Building Trust and relationships with the Funtastic Community Leaders Committee champions faith leaders and our volunteers that weve got in the area much of it is about making sure Vulnerable People dont run out of basics like food or medicines that delivering sewer lead hes not allowed to leave home but in turn hes keeping an eye out on his neighbors reporting back to the violence he is the d brother across the road each 80 years old he was taken away in an ambulance this morning and loaded wife still there so straight on the phone to family to let them know what was happening could she not might not have let them know and then i told the masha so you know sometime today theyll be in contact with them to see to it to see i have been to get the supplies the data from local supermarkets all restaurants or cooks far more volunteers from all sorts of backgrounds this Somali Center has delivered 10000. 00 meals since march and when they visit someone whos ill they get them to the doctor yes we spreading the word and in the end because its not only incumbent to the relevant authorities but its incumbent with us to save the community our community and the Wider Community as well. Its all the shop is contrast with a situation just down the road in manchester where the government insisted 4 and a half 1000000 people that had to lock down because of localized outbreaks in liverpool by contrast the Testing Center in the affected area has access to the most local knowledge quite apart from the obvious benefits of not having to lock down an entire city the other advantage of liverpools model is of the volunteers come up with a really specific. Information about individuals on dozens and dozens of streets and that sort of highly granular data is absolute gold dust the Public Health professionals. The whole response has become a source of enormous local pride among the volunteer groups despite them being pressured financially due to a lot of costs they still continue to amaze as with the innovation with the compassion that they have been dealing with vulnerable individuals who. To shield 3rd dozens of nationalities doing this while acting as one units in the better interests of the whole community they say anyone in the world could do what theyre doing certainly the level of commitment and organization is quite the contrast to the u. K. s disjointed National Response to the virus or asleep al jazeera in liverpool.
