Curve at 19 infections. Sudan declares a 3 month state of emergency after some of the worst flooding in decades. The rescuers in beirut still old hold out hope of finding a survivor of the last months explosion. The Turkish Military is redeploying heavily Armored Vehicles to new positions on the border with greece a convoy of armored personnel carriers has been seen traveling from the Syrian Border its been months of rising tension between turkey and greece over gas reserves in the Eastern Mediterranean turkeys president of top of the one says that hes ready for all possibilities. True gaining can is you know there he has the power to discard met so documents imposed they will understand that ticky has the Political Economic and military might needed to cast off a moral mess and documents imposed by others we are ready to clarify this by going through what ever it takes no matter how painful it is with it at the negotiating table or in the battlefield we the people and the government are ready for all possibilities when it comes to any fronts want to go she ations we have said that we are ready to share rights according to fear agreements in terms. Of the ruffle assisted by for us with greek reaction but 1st lets cross to our Stephanie Decker is in istanbul stephanie whats turkey doing on the border between its in greece. Well that video emerged of armored personnel carriers according to reports in local newspapers that they are being deployed redeployed lets say from the border with syria to the border with greece we havent had any official confirmation of that the only thing that the officials have said is that this is within the planned activity the responsibility of the 2nd army now the 2nd army is responsible for the areas of syria iraq and iran so there is a question mark there but certainly if indeed this convoy is heading to the border with turkey which is the northwestern border not in the eastern remit of the 2nd army then of course its part of this diplomatic arm wrestling military arm westing if you will within what is a very tense situation at the moment remaining between the 2 countries turkey and greece turkey continues its military live fire operations in the Eastern Mediterranean until the 12th of september we have that rhetoric ongoing you just heard from turkeys president all the the words coming out of here is saying that they wont hesitate even going to a full on military confrontation when it comes to defending what they say are their just a minute rights so we had a brief moment where nature was saying that the 2 sides agree to sit at the table to discuss sort of de confliction line technical talks greece has backtracked from that so i think very clear that at the moment no sign that this situation is being close to being resolved or its so what is the significance of the fact that military vehicles we think bring to wards the border with greece. Well turkey has been long involved in the conflict with syria its redeployed a lot of its military hardware to that area over the last couple of years i mean if you read between the lines a 2nd army agent is responsible for syria iraq and iran so it should not be if you look at that just taking that on face value on the border with greece so i think were just going to have to wait and see to clarify 6 exactly where this convoy is heading if they are heading to greece and i think absolutely its sending a message even though the turks are saying that this is business as usual this was planned before any escalation you know the tension between the 2 countries of course nothing is by chance and nothing of these kinds of coincidences happen without some kind of political message so i think it would be sort of you know again arm wrestling military back and forth threatening it will but again i think many people who have been watching this will tell you that they believe and they hope that this will be resolved at some stage through negotiations however it will require a compromise but certain with as much military hardware when you talk about the Eastern Mediterranean can take continuously carrying out you know life fire drills military drills and of course the potential for some form of accident between 2 nato allies is very real stephanie thanks didnt 0 stephanie deccan istanbul lets bring in of zeros John Psaropoulos standen athens john how is the greek side likely to react to this. I dont think narron land between greece and turkey is. The greeks are especially concerned that the greeks have 100. 00. Tanks in their arsenal most of those a parked right there in that 130 kilometer long stretch so there is overwhelming. Opposition to Turkish Border there and i think that actually only serves the greek churches. Fears that the greeks feel very confident about what theyre less confident about is the last swath of the g. And c. And now Eastern Mediterranean sea which have become theatres of operations gradually over the past few years where the greeks have been caught wrong footed because after 8 years of recession and austerity measures imposed by their eurozone partners greece has the greeks have cut their Defense Budget by about ha its roughly 3 percent of g. D. P. At the moment. The greeks have traditionally spent very highly on defense they are now unable to keep up with turkey which has cuomo strip all the Defense Budgets of greece and theyre looking for very quick Term Solutions to make up certain shortfalls one of those possible solutions is negotiations said to be underway to purchase 18 or 20 rafael fighters those multipurpose fighter jets they carry all the latest french made precision guided surface to surface and air to air missiles. That can be used tactically and strategically they would planners here seem to believe give greece an edge in any operations in the open sea in the aegean. The other great area of need is that greece needs frigates because greeces boats are 30 to 50 years old they do carry very sophisticated enough to date equipment but in terms of their size and capacity to do new things they are limited so again theres a discussion apparently with the french government for the possible purchase of state of the art frigates here of course there is a great deal of competition because greece has traditionally bought from the United States as a as a nato ally and the french a clearly must. In on what is u. S. Procurement territory because once youve sold both an aircraft youre going to so all the consumables that go with them for decades to come but the french seem to be the only country that is willing to state that it is. Going to have a presence a military presence in the east closer alien in support of the greeks something that the americans obviously trying to very difficult to do at the moment supporting one Major Airline versus another so at the moment these are rumors discussions we dont expect anything to be confirmed yet but probably in a few days time perhaps on september 10th that the euro met summit in must say we will hear official announcements of greek procurements and french weapons are serious chance or operas live for us in athens john many thanks indeed iraq is warning that hospitals may lose control of the corona Virus Outbreak within days more than 5000 new infections were recorded on friday the highest daily number so far was down slightly on saturday though the Health Ministry is blaming much of the spike on a recent religious event and other gatherings where people were not Wearing Masks or observing social distancing how does it restore such a barrier reports from baghdad. Well theres a slight decrease over the past 24 hours as opposed to the numbers that came out on friday just over 4600 new confirmed cases across the country and 63 people have died in the past 24 hours as a result of code related issues but these figures are an indication that the shura gatherings which took place on august 30th in the city of karbala in southern iraq which commemorates the death of amman hossein whos the grandson of the it late prophets is the one of the main reasons that were seeing such a spike in these numbers over the past 48 hours across the country does the nearly 10000 new infections and those numbers are something this country has not seen just to give you an idea in neighboring iran its double the size a population of iraq and they have half the number of confirmed cases we also understand that these figures that we receive on a daily basis are not true indication of the actual number of people that are confirmed to have the virus because many people dont get tested or they are too afraid to go to hospitals many of the facilities and medical facilities in the country are not equipped to deal with the number of people that they should be dealing with on a daily basis. Just to the numbers weve seen of people who have contracted kovan 1000 votes go into a medical facility in baghdad alone over the past 48 hours has been just around 370 so this shows us that they really a number of people weve spoken to as well say even if they do get sick they do not seek medical help.

Day 3 of the search operation a body has not been found neither has a survivor there was hope but what we understand from engineers is.
