Ok lets begin in iraq where Health Officials are warning that hospitals may soon lose control within days over a new spike in corona virus infections well in 5000 new cases were confirmed on saturday the highest daily number yet the Health Ministry has largely blamed it on people whove been taking part in big gatherings without masks or social distancing iraqi hospitals have suffered from years of conflict inadequate funding and neglect or such a body has more now from baghdad almost really behind this record.

And the 1980 s. 100000 homes have been badly damaged or theyve collapsed entirely half a 1000000 people have been affected. This update from. Weve spoken to meteorologist and 2 government officials who work in the ministry of water and irrigation and they attribute the reason of the unprecedented levels of the nile river to multiple factors they say one of its Climate Change they say that theres been heavy rainfall in ethiopia where 80 percent of the water comes from the blue nile and so so they say that the heavy rains and if you can high lands and that eventually comes downstream on the nile is one of the reasons why were seeing heavy flooding along the banks of the nile they also say that the dams that have been built along the nile over the past few years have contributed to the fact that the heavy rains after the rise of the water levels now weve got at least 4 dams along the nile river 3 of them here in sudan and one of them just on the border just just over the across the border with egypt and one of them that has just recently been announced there that has been filled in ethiopia now that was expected to reduce the amount of water that is flooding right now because its partially filled in because no deal has been reached between the 3 countries sudan if you have here and egypt a lot of issues remain to be decided and a lot of things are yet to be completed in terms of the operations of that dam but sudan right now is saying that it is announcing a 3 month date of emergency because of the unprecedented levels its right now at 17 meters point 61. 00 that is a record that has not been broken in a century.
