And joining us now with the sportscaster vs records here right in the title with a stunning comeback. Russian Opposition Leader alexina vonnie has arrived at the hospital to receive emergency treatment for suspected poisoning russian doctors had initially said he was too sick to be moved from a hospital in the siberian city of all means but they changed their position late on friday the bonnies wife yulia believes the delay in releasing him was intentional making it harder to detect any poisons remaining in his system than they fell ill during a flight to moscow thursday on xander an overage called why is standing by in moscow 1st lets go to dominate cain in berlin dominic i understand this is one of the best hospitals in berlin that hes in talk us through whats going to be happening. This is one of the best hospitals in the world in many different fields of medicine. World renowned for many years and whats particularly person into about this hospital is that the staff have recent relevant experience treating other patients at least one other patient who reported presented with similar symptoms similar conditions to those which mr novelli has presented with hes been in the care of staff at the in the building behind me the chalet to a hospital complex for the past few hours the hospital has released a written statement in which it says it is now doing performing an extensive diagnostic of mist and of on the going through his system working out what is wrong working out what foreign elements are in his system which of calls to him to shows such as a bad reaction to whatever is in his system they say theyre going to its going to take some considerable time once theyve worked out what they think is wrong theyre going to communicate that to his relatives to his wife to others and only after that will they go into more detail will they make a more Public Statement now separately the family of mr van they have also said that they are going to take some time maybe maybe some days before their pants too to give a much wider statement about their side of things and remember the group who arranged the medivac the medical evacuation flight the cinema for Peace Foundation well they have said that when he was on board the plane and when it was handed over into the hands of German Authorities he is in a stable condition particular least surprising because hes been put into an induced coma in russia by the doctors who were treating him there and remember all obviously there are many many questions still being posed right now about whats in his system how it got there and how people. Can remove it certainly thats the sort of questioning thats going on right now in the building behind me the sharon tate hospital because you were talking we were seeing some of the pictures from earlier of the convoy that brought mr novelli to the hospital and as you say this whole thing at the moment is clouded in mystery and so many questions that needed to be answered but this is going to take time isnt it this is not a fast procedure to try to identify the poisons that are in somebodys system if indeed there are any. Well thats the 1st thing isnt it we have to grasp the nettle as it were so many questions and differing versions of events too which have been put about by different sides and we know that from the russian perspective at least from the medical perspective in russia there was doubts about whether he was fit for transport then they decided he was then there were the suggestions that were made by the medics as i say in russia where he was treated that perhaps what had happened to him was some was the result of some pressure change onboard the flight that he had to be in a passenger on put that on one side on the other side you have what the supporters of mr nonviolently say which is that that is not the case that they believe that he drank a cup of tea which had been poisoned and he did that just prior to boarding that flight from tomsk to moscow when his ordeal began and people will recall seeing some of the video that that was filmed on board that plane and indeed the video that was filmed afterwards on the tarmac considered come to rest come to rest brains lavani was taken from there so plenty of questions plenty of different versions of events in the time frame well given the fact that those 2 sides here hospital and also the family saying its going to take some considerable time and they want to form a a multifaceted diagnostic of whats wrong with mr van the they giving the impression that it may take some considerable time. Dominic thanks very much indeed thats donna came bringing us up to date from berlin lets cross over to moscow xandra story in the gulf war is a journalist based in the russian capital shes joining is live good to have you with this what kind of reaction is moscow giving to all of this. Well you know the reaction mostly comes from the violent supporters here friends his family and theyre relieved that they are relieved that after 2 days of uncertainty and fear it was finally allowed to leave the hospital in arms the family never actually its not about the family didnt trust that much medical expertise of russian doctors doctors but what they distrusted and what they were afraid of is and what they believe is that the doctors were under the political pressure and thats why they wanted he moved out of there they also strongly suspected that he was poisoned which is something that the russian doctors after 2 days off analysis say was not the case that they didnt find any poisons and diagnosed him with that type of metabolic disorder so in this case of the family is still wondering why took so long to let him go out of that hospital to get the permit to transport him to germany with the plane already waiting there when it comes to the reactions from the officials one should not expect to many because on the 1st day voiced by the russian president spokesperson we had that he is like any other says a citizen of russia and he will get the assistance he needs as any other would and he did get the assistance because all this permits had to be given for the plane to land for the plane to take off for taking him to german hospital hes a man whose name has never been mentioned by the russian president even when he referred to so we could expect another wish for him to get better but not very much. And more and then that still the question remains that many here in russia wants to hear the answer to and that is what happened what happened so that is generally healthy man of 44 fell ill and fell in a coma 2 days ago. Was a story develops i know were going to checking back in with the alexander but for now Alexander Steiner is go to thank you very much indeed and before this incident the volley had been voicing his support for the thousands of demonstrators have been rallying for a sevens weekend in russias far east region of kabul tell us the protests are in support of a Regional Governor for ago he was detained last month and taken to jail in moscow is accused of ordering 4 murders in 20042005 which he denies his supporters say the charges are politically motivated and a kremlin plot against democracy and in the region another sensitive issue for moscow the exiled belorussian Opposition Leader has called for more mass protests against president Alexander Lukashenko so atlanta to kind of sky is leading the call for his resignation there have been demonstrations for 12 days now including some of the biggest antigovernment rallies in the capital minsk since the fall of the soviet union to kind of sky lead to lithuania after the election which she says was rigged.

But even so of course it rains and those strong winds with it its going to make landfall several times before it out she makes the big landfall in the southern u. S. That is a few days away so theres laura hit now this is the strongest storm winds sustained at 80 kilometers an hour gusting higher than that this is moving north northwest not quite as quickly but this is going to be some even heavier amounts of rain possible you could on peninsula that are warnings in place here it will make landfall later. Across that northern tip and that is where we could see some flash floods with the rain this is going to get stronger and as we go through sunday were going to have gusts here at hurricane strength and you can see where theyre sort of both on their way towards but once that system moves into the gulf of mexico rob the waters of very very warm so it could possibly strengthen even further you know these are all areas of course that ive seen a lot of damage from storms over the last few months were going to be watching that really closely of course jenny for now thanks very much indeed still ahead on all of his era an economy on the verge of collapse we meet the people in peru who are struggling to put food on the table plus.

Doctors in kenyas Public Hospitals are on strike over delayed salaries and poor quality protective gear to treat coronavirus patients police fired tear gas at more than 300 medics demonstrating in nairobi on friday is growing over allegations that government officials stole millions of dollars in funds for protective equipment at least 700. 00 Health Workers have been infected with covert 910. 00 have died the chief of the World Health Organization has said it would be criminal if funds meant for protective gear are being stolen any level of court of appeal is an acceptable or any type of court action is unacceptable however. Related to a p p p a life saving. For me its actually murder because if field workers work without p. P. We risking their lives and that also respects the lives of the people they set. Dr denis miscount his acting secretary general at the kenya medical practitioners pharmacists and Dentists Union hes joining us by skype from nairobi thank you very much indeed for being with us give us an indication of the kind of conditions that you and your colleagues are working under at the moment thank you very much for having me the d doctor right now is working under extreme conditions where we may be too limited we have made it to. Substandard in some cases and some of the terms we are able to force to really use some of the. And. Also the fact that the huge number of doctors and health. And have to be taken both active management of patients so there is strain in their numbers and as a unit of it try to push for them is to hire more workers but. Because they have been doing it its local statements that. I understand that doctors and medical practitioners havent and being paid and their medical insurance is being cut for what reasons is the government giving you for the lack of p. P. E. But also the cut in pay and the cut in medical insurance. So the tragedy of the whole process of the medical cover is that they doctors in some of the counties in coningsby a little beach medical insurance cover had expired 2 months ago and they have been working the butt in the medical cover and when they fall sick they have to pay from the book and they dont help if it were from the least thats what government should do for you is to protect you just treat you as you feel sick or even any other you know try to push for them to compensate those of that who are that Health Care Workers were dead more than died and weve been pushing for them to compensate them but that havent been forthcoming so d thats one of the major issues when it comes to working with the medical cover as we know from experience around the world of course medical staff are at the front line of dealing with covert 19 if these doctors and nurses and modern medical staff are walking off the job if you are on strike and that front line is not being maintained how bad could the spread of coronavirus be. It could get worse and for us as doctors we dont dont just wake up when the end he said to dont know i told them we were condemning we are trying to get you a mint from the trust and were gonna. Announce in kenya in early march and youve had endless meetings to be done media briefings and a piece for them to be able to help present and sadly nothing much has been coming and so we find that even just being or silent just to ensure that a medical doctor is paid on time i had. A car put in the rest of my family on the lane and to worry about what i will eat or her will to pay my rent and we tell her children but the least they will do for us is to protect us but they were given. That at all as Health Care Workers as doctors who say that we are as much as we are human doctors and we sought to protect we are human beings we have treated well as well people that you care about 1st before you put it from the line you have to be sure that there will be cares for you and that nobody really cares what are great as they are not on. The only way that would be listen to us is. d if you can. Tweak or cover when a policy protecting they really protect myself like everybody is being wasting away from work and working from home if you can that i lose that one so the numbers yes i sympathize with our patients but hopefully that is true what last for long so that this this few days better we know it for what will at least joke d the government come to the table and just know that ours is a cry after only to be protected not anything to do with us wanting to make operation to stop doctor miskin a given the fact that kenya is in the middle of a medical crisis how concerned are you and your colleagues at the public will not support you in this given that you are the front line in fighting this disease. We know that the public would support and we hope that their supporters cause. As helco come from communities the problem is our sister because hes our mother. So unless they want to see the brother that is dead theyre clever dying because of course because theyre protected unless they want us to sacrifice ourselves. Then they will not support as much so that they know that we all if thats what is their lives thats what they were for a country then they supported them they will push the politicians in good politics and there are fights over the d fire and that they will talk to them. Into their government until then but on much of the good quality we. Get of them so we create hope that they will support us and we hope that so that they literally block what dr dennis we appreciate your joining us in algeria thank you very much indeed thank you so much its well known that feelings of isolation and loneliness of increased during coronavirus lockdowns for people suffering from dementia restrictions of deprive them of social contact and routine stimulation which can help keep their condition at bay and as emma haywood reports from southern england thats brought new challenges for their carers.

Talk as much as she used to talk she but she does talk you can probably hear in the background its more mumbling. Words that dumped my kidney since the start a lot down if you want to and i will she would tell you she cant do that now. You will too cheerio nation through lack of mixing with people its hard to know whether lindas cognitive decline is due to a natural progression from out simas or months of social isolation or both but Dementia Charities say her situation is far from unique and people with dementia have been disproportionately affected by cope at 19 with official figures showing the disease was the most common main preexisting Health Condition and deaths involving kobolds between march and june this year in england and wales at the same time visits to relatives living with dementia inside care homes was stopped to try to help the spread of the virus around 850000 people in the u.

Unprecedented summer rains in Central China threatening the livelihoods of fish farmers and fishermen in neighboring south korea rob a bride to travel to the island in the waters separating the Korean Peninsula from chinas east coast to learn more about a summer phenomenon thats being made worse by climate change.

That many citizens were not the only victims of the beirut port explosion earlier this month pandits of syrians were among the thousands whove been injured the u. N. And aid agencies are providing help but they havent been able to reach everyone is in a call to reports. 2 weeks after he was injured and where most of us pain hasnt eased knocked unconscious from the blast at beirut port he spent a few days in hospital and is now left to deal with his injuries alone the father of 6 is a syrian Migrant Worker who are among the worst hit being left out of an already struggling system is not hard. Can i go for a check up this no one to take me someone was supposed to pick me up 5 days ago to scan my heed and im very dizzy i cant get up. Hundreds of syrians were injured in the explosion many worked and lived near the port there were also 30 percent of the more than 180 people confirmed dead and they too are among those unaccounted for. Who is truly when my daughter died it was because. Things were still on my wife brought her back and she needs legs surgery and cannot move my other daughter or broken bones on her neck. The cato family lived here for 13 years like so many others they had no idea the smoke that was billowing from the port less than a kilometer away would trigger such a devastating explosion that is why the family was outside when it happened. Falling debris killed allie kinos 16 year old daughter sidra the family has since moved in with the eldest son mahmoud whose home is too small and income too little to care for them in an unwelcoming country. The hospital where my father was treated demanded money even though the ministry of health said a cup of the cost for all the victims Hospital Management insisted syrians had to pay we managed to discharge him after a journalist who was at the hospital brought attention to our case.
