 Hello and welcome to the International Daily Roundup by People's Dispatch, where we bring you major news developments from around the world. Our headlines, 1000th place displacement following military hashtags in Myanmar, rights groups report Chilean president to the ICC for crimes against humanity, Peruvian police forcibly evict families living in temporary housing camps, and in our video section we take a look at the oxygen crisis in India as daily COVID-19 infections continue to rise. In our first 20,000s of people from the current ethnic community in Myanmar may be forced to flee their homes. Located in the southeast region, the area has been heavily targeted by military airstrikes. These have been a retaliation to the attracts on the junta's military bases by the current national union. Local sources have estimated that at least 19 civilians were killed in the airstrikes in March. The attacks have forced many to flee to neighboring Thailand. Myanmar now reported that 300 Karen refugees had fled to Thailand on April 28. If the attacks continue, nearly 7000 people might be forcibly displaced from the region. UN OCHA has also reported on Tuesday that nearly 5,000 people had been displaced and several homes had been destroyed in the Kachin state. An increase in hostilities in the Karen and Bago states has already displaced nearly 40,000 people. Nearly 11,000 people have been displaced from the Shahan state amid escalating clashes since January. Out of this, nearly 4,000 have remained displaced. Meanwhile, local media have continued to document routine instances of violence against civilians. The Resistance Association of Political Prisoners has reported 759 deaths as of April 29. Over 3,400 people are currently in detention in 80 heaven sentence so far. There have also been reports of the torture of detainees. The military coup coupled with the COVID-19 pandemic has also exasperated other humanitarian issues. The World Food Programme is estimated at 3.4 million people, especially in urban centers will face hunger within the next 6 months. While poor people have lost their jobs and income, Myanmar is witnessing a rise in food prices. A report released by the UNDP on Friday has warned that the crisis could push nearly 25 million people into poverty by 2022. Women and children are expected to be the worst affected by this crisis. Four rights groups have appealed to the ICC to lodge an investigation into Chilean President Sebastian Pinera. The applicants include former Spanish judge Baltazar Garzón and the Chilean Human Rights Commission. The appeal requested the ICC investigate put on trial and index Pinera for crimes against humanity. This is related to the excessive use of police force and violence during the social outbreak protests starting in 2019. The 141-page appeal was sent to the ICC on April 29. The document argues that systematic rape has been proven based in a court with over 292 victims of sexual violence by police officers. Over 1,200 illegal arrests were also carried out. At least 464 people suffered eye injuries between October 2019 and Feb 2021. A 2020 report by the Chilean Public Prosecutor's Office stated that 31 people had been killed in the protests. The Chilean police were also accused of over 8,500 instances of human rights violations in 2020. The appeal filed this week argues that such acts of violence have continued. It also claims that 3,050 cases of institutional violence were closed. The applicants have accused the Chilean judiciary of either delaying the process or substantiating these reports or trying them as cases of common crime. Several organizations including the UN have previously also documented extensive rights violations by the Chilean police. Thursday's appeal follows a complaint against Pinera filed by the Mapuche Indigenous people last month. The community had filed a lawsuit in the Guarantee Court of Temuco against the President, accusing him of genocide crimes. The complaint details the systematic violation of human rights and collective rights. Communities have documented instances of racial discrimination, shooting, rape and murder. We now go to Peru where hundreds of homeless families were violently evicted by the police on April 28. The police people had set up temporary camps on abandoned land in the Lomo de Corvina area in the outskirts of Lima. 2,700 people arrived at the site at 7am on Wednesday. They proceeded to throw tear gas canisters to force people to leave. Police cleared the property after nearly 4 hours of attack. Tents were disbanded and people's belongings were collected. The police general stated that 11 people had also been detained. Local media reported on Thursday that the evicted families had settled on public roads and highways. They have stated that they will not move until they are assigned another place to relocate. Meanwhile, heavy police were deployed in the Lomo de Corvina area. Over 10,000 Peruvians have been living in shack houses and tents on the land since April 11. They have lost their jobs and their homes due to the economic crisis caused by the pandemic. Despite the immediate health emergency, families have been forced to live without basic services. This includes electricity, water and drainage. However, the Peruvian government has announced that it will not relocate the affected families. An official also warned earlier this week that in case families return, they would face legal measures. And for our final story, we return to our coverage of the COVID-19 crisis in India. The country has consistently witnessed record surges with over 386,000 cases. New cases reported in the past 24 hours today morning. The health ministry also recorded 3498 deaths within this time as per an update on Friday morning. The surge in the states of Rajasthan, Mithra Pradesh is five times the peak in the first year of last year. A higher positivity rate coupled with widespread oxygen shortages has also overwhelmed the health system. Here is Praveer Purkhayasa to talk about the ongoing oxygen crisis. There are two aspects to this issue. One is that why has the demand gone up so rapidly? And that I think is the key question, that this has caught the government completely unaware. They should have prepared for it. They should have had the ability to project what kind of requirements of oxygen they might get. They had done some projection that they knew that they could manage 100,000 patients at a given point of time, numbers of new cases coming up, that kind of surge that we saw last year. They could manage, but beyond that they would have a problem. But the question is that did we prepare for this eventuality, that the numbers could go up from 100,000, 200, 300,000. Right now we are really looking like we are going to reach 400,000 and the speed at which we are going and probably even 500,000. And if that is so, what would happen to both the ability of the system, the hospitals to handle the patients and the ability for us to be able to supply them oxygen, which is the crucial input that you do require. And that's not something you can ramp up very quickly. You can get medicines if you want, you know, plain loads of them can be flown from here and there. That's possible. The possibility exists, but not when it comes to oxygen. That's the key mistake that we seem to have made. The second part of it, if we look at the other part, the issue that is there, that there is a complete lackadaisical attitude towards even doing the minimum that was talked about earlier. It took them 10 months to order what are called PSA oxygen plants, which are smaller oxygen plants. They can be put very close to hospitals within the hospitals for that matter. And therefore the provide like you have for the electrical system, a backup supply, you get a backup supply. It's not a solution for hospitals, but you do get a backup supply that could be there. But number of plants ordered were not very large. The amount that was being spent on this was again not very large. We're talking to something like 30 crores or so. And if you take the 162 plants that the government ordered, it took them 10 months to order. And even after that, it's taken five more months for them to install only 30 odd plants. And the tragedy is that at the current moment that we are seeing, it only meets about max 2.5% of the requirement, even if all the plants had been functioning. So let's face it, this is not a solution. But even that, a palliative arrangement, particularly for far flung areas where oxygen supply reaching liquid oxygen is difficult, this would have been some kind of a stopgap arrangement. It wasn't the solution for cities like Delhi, Mumbai or Kune or any of the big cities because there the oxygen requirement is in hundreds of tons. So therefore to think that a small PSA plant or a set of PSA plants could do the job was certainly not going to happen. So one was the gross mismatch, miscalculation with the numbers itself. And that we have discussed earlier that, this is something that happened because the government of India, the prime minister included and declared victory and thought that this was not going to come back. And here the modelers who have been sort of believing the government's propaganda or the government believing its own propaganda are also to blame that they declared that maybe India has reached herd immunity on any really solid data basis to say so. And as we can see, we are really facing the biggest test we have had in COVID-19. Now, India is at the moment almost 50 people going towards 60% of the global new cases that are arising. And what happens is of course that the people who fall ill today are going to turn serious in other, you know, a section of them are going to become seriously in another say two weeks, one to two weeks. And therefore, even if the numbers are dropping or even the numbers flatten, the pressure on the hospital system is going to stay or even grow. So we are going to see even worse crisis ahead, for instance, in cities like Delhi, for oxygen if we are not able to solve the logistical problem. That's all we have time for today. We will be back on Monday with more news from around the world. Until then, keep watching People's Dispatch.
