5 were violent and some of them are from to be shot pups this is that really what we have been saying that. some of the militia have just joined the protest here in the town of binny and they have been facing soldiers. 1 seized this morning they have even succeeded as i said previously they killed one of the police officer here and his body was even possible to just now a pass on the men who have. been so situation still tense you cannot see any population moving around all the shops to the town is a total shut down 1 nothing is moving here just police and soldiers so definitely we still a very tense situation as we are going like it only already at the nighttime so we don't know what will happen but the police and army they want kowtowing to a situation where i cannot tell. so just talk us through how all of

this sparked what sparked a rather was it didn't begin with that march on the u.n. compound that we saw earlier on. that is the main objective and even now they're still saying the there's a still shouting on the out with me saying that. you sold your soul just not. but if you want 1 to become a victim we will deal with you this is the main message you can hear from the protesters shouting in the corridor. running away from the soldiers too while. shooting from soldiers you can't even hear right now military helicopters turning around the town of spinny trying to control the situation saying these protesters are saying the u.n. is the main objective they will attend a decent military base of. the airport this is the may.

be why they're targeting this military base because they're saying this is the soldiers normally monday this town not been with these population but these people they have been here we just monday to weed all equipment we do some of the new kid from from the u.n. we didn't force we didn't mind it but they come out they're not able to support the civilians so they don't want to see that prisoner swap these peacekeepers. been there even forbidden to un to turn around with the u.n. no you would walk. 5 to talk to a movie in the town of. tell lies some of the vienna workers walking for us here in the town of bailey so this is it's a real fear against us here because this deal remains calm and the target of protesters. have been here all right thank you for that update from many now bring in katherine so is joining us from goma that's the largest city in the

eastern democratic republic of congo you heard a lot talking about the anger of men after the u.n. mission and that anger is not only being expressed in beni but also where you are catherine. absolutely the whole of last week we were covering very angry protesters trying also to get to u.n. bases saying that they support the protests going on in beni and the security bad security situation cannot be allowed to continue and just to go back to benny i was speaking about the soldiers who are saying some militias have infiltrated the protests have also been speaking to the governor of north kivu here. and he's saying the same things he's saying that the security forces on the streets of benny are not just dealing with ordinary protesters he's saying that the people among them who are armed with quote weapons and they've been attacking residents of benny

who do not necessarily want to participate in this process is saying that security forces are continuing are going to continue using force until the situation is contained but it's important to note even as he says that that people as you've been saying in beni and here in goma are quite angry about the state of security and genuinely so when all this really is happening at a time that health workers are trying struggling to contain an airball outbreak in that region. the visit by the director general of the world health organization to go was brief but necessary. health workers responding to an outbreak in parts of the region wiretapped last week by my my rebels in an area where people are still being infected by the disease for died and in this hospital that chief visits those who were injured even one. could spark

a fire. the same thing now actually with a major one of the major security incidents like this one. more so it may take longer. you know. it would have taken with the progress that we had having the green he had the agencies upon a majesty coordinator shows us what they're dealing with the red sports you see the focus points it's in mining villages in about 70 kilometers from betty town where most of the new cases have been detected yet it's one of the most unsafe areas and where the health workers were recently killed our breakfast important to stop or. very difficult to access because of the forests around the mining areas making sure that we have full access to be. all the villages among those important plans are

bringing up to a dozen a boiler responders have been killed and several treatment facilities attacked since the outbreak started nearly a year and a half ago. has killed on operations in beni because of the current security crisis these affects people tracking the disease we met. in beni 3 weeks ago she's among volunteers who wanted to people who've been in contact with the patient's health officials tell us one of the biggest con sons is how people. can safely keep in touch with those they wanted to for a ball of symptoms. but if you look at over the last report the performance went down because your own mentor person perform. braff says you know up to 59 person this is a problem because you want to make sure that. undetected early enough in goma the w.h.o. chief also met with those tasked with containing the disease some of whom had been

at it from the front lines in beni because of the and citing security situation. well we know that some humanitarian agencies are evacuating their stuff members in beni we spoke to officials with the world health organization who say that they have evacuated hundreds of them about 400 and fiftie they're saying that security is paramount these health workers responded have to be safe and that really means that responders cannot go to areas in beni where people are still getting infected by a boy and this could turn out to be very dangerous is indeed. catherine so we thank you for that update.

the white house. part in the next step of the impeachment inquiry into donald trump presidents had been given until sunday to confirm whether he'd sent legal representatives of a house hearing on wednesday trump accuse of asking ukraine to investigate his political rival joe biden and biden's son in exchange for military aid. just in the past few hours trump says he will reappear tariffs on steel and aluminum imports from argentina and brazil he made the announcement on twitter saying the true countries have been precisely being over a massive devaluation of their currencies which is not good for our farmers therefore effective immediately will restore the tariffs on all steel minium that is shipped into the u.s. from those countries but both brazil and argentina say they will negotiate with the u.s. to stop the move but as our white house correspondent kelly hocket explains there could be some domestic factors influencing trump's decision a bit of a surprise on monday morning as americans waking up hearing about this tweet that

the exemption that had been secured back in may of 28 team by argentina and brazil on steel and aluminum as we say over here tariffs well those are now back in place and this is not going to make those countries happy specifically because the urge the white house not to do it but donald trump particularly upset by some of the actions he's accusing argentina as well as brazil of taking of deliberately he he accuses them of deliberately devaluing their currency and it seems that this might have been provoked by a comment recently made by the economic minister in brazil where he said he's not concerned about the exchange rate in other words that there's a strong u.s. dollar in contrast to the brazilian reale so as a result there seems to be punitive action that has been taken by the u.s. president but it goes on even further because that tweet has a 2nd part where the u.s. president says that the federal reserve here in the united states should acts of the countries of which there are many no longer take advantage of our strong dollar

by further devaluing their currencies what he's saying is there's a pivotal meeting coming up here in the united states for the federal reserve that's the central bank here in the united states on december 10th and 11th he has been pushing very vocally for some time for them to lower their interest rates in fact he wants to see it in negative territory like he says you. has right now some of the european countries because he feels there's a competitive advantage so to parts of these tweets number one the announcement that those tariffs are going back in place for argentina and brazil but also pushing for further action here in the united states something he's been looking for for a very long time summer as prime minister is shutting down the government and ordering stuff to help deal with a spiraling measles outbreak so far at least 53 people have died on the pacific islands most of them young children as many as 100 people are falling ill every day james nichols is with unicef australia he says efforts to contain the disease have been well coordinated so far well there has been response literally from the 1st

day of the of the upright and uni set has been working very closely with the government and the world health organization and also with other partners such as the australian department of foreign affairs and trite and new zealand's ministry of foreign affairs and she's right in mounting a response so. it's it's clear to me that the response has been switched. 500000 additional vaccines of missiles from angels has been flown into the region and 115000 doses of missiles vaccines have arrived in somalia since the 1st of october and this includes syringes safety boxes as well as supplies of vitamin eye which are vital in responding to such an outbreak so things are definitely on the way but obviously with more deaths this is a tragedy this is really an emergency still and we're not out of it yet. still

share offering but a number of countries are producing oil well above their quotas 0 is economics editor of the explains why saudi arabia would consider such a move. it would be really helpful if. prices were stable over the 1st 6 months of its flotation now this is important because they have a lot of retail investors which are small investors who are putting the money into the market possibly for the 1st time taking out huge loans to take a big bet on this particular company and after 6 months if they keep their their money in saudi aramco they will get extra shares and the hope is that a non fall atar market would encourage them to keep their money in in the saudi aramco and so the saudis of very keen to make sure that this flotation is exorcise they don't want to have to put their hands in their own pockets that it's using

their state funds to stop mopping up to buy excess excess shares the whole idea of trying to sell aramco was to make sure that there was additional new money coming into the economy so that they could spend that money elsewhere. the international court of justice in the netherlands is holding public hearings on an appeal relating to the blockade of cats are egypt saudi arabia the united arab emirates and behind have been imposing the blockade for nearly 2 and a half years well they accuse qatar as governments of spreading instability and supporting terrorism which it strongly denies on june the 5th 2017 saudi arabia closed qatar's only land border access to the sea is restricted as well air routes were also closed forcing qatar airways to make longer detours and look for alternate flight paths cats are says the airspace restrictions by saudi arabia and the u.a.e. violates international law jamal show yellow is in the hague and he says the

blockading nations haven't put much of a focus on aviation throughout their arguments but these countries are saying and why they've come here to the hague to the i.c.j. is they're saying that. it's not in its jurisdiction to make these decision or at least that's what they had said. however once these hearing started there was a very peculiar claims being made in the opening remarks by the representatives of those countries where they started focusing on part of its policies even bringing in things like the freedom of press that. is exercised through channels like 0 which they claimed was trying to ferment some sort of instability and so forth that was the political side of it and they were trying to give a political justification as to why they took the decision to stop the. civilian aircraft of qatar airways from flying over the line there wasn't a clear connection as to how that was tied between the 2 then when their lawyers

took to the stage there rather than focusing on that more they then went on to talk about how the procedural aspects of the international civil aviation organization wasn't met by the organization itself and that there wasn't enough time taken by the organization to consider why the country has decided to blockade qatar and close off its airspace so there seems to be a lack of consistency with regards to the arguments. typhoon cumorah is strengthening and making its way toward southeast philippines there are warnings of severe flooding in 3 provinces operations of the manila international airport will be temporarily suspended starting tuesday jamil and organ is an album philippines with an update we are in vegas by one of the areas expected to bear the brunt of typhoon camorra and operations like this one have started as early as sunday morning and the situation is similar all across their rejoin of the call where

thousands of families have already been evacuated but those living in the islands remain more vulnerable the beagle region always very the brunt of the beer in the country but over the last few years they have achieved even there's 0 casualty targets still they're not leaving anything to chance because officials here tell us i think i'm worry is expected to be the strongest typhoon to hit the philippines this year an annual un climate conference has opened in spain where delegates have been warned our planet is fast approaching the point of no return chilling politician curliness schmidt took over as president of cop 25 in madrid the event was meant to have been held in chile but weeks of violent street protests there forced the government to council in kigali in she lay and globally we are seeing social and environmental crises in order to address these we have to go back to the

grassroots we have to build trust and confidence again we need to dialogue with openness to change the climate crisis is the greatest challenge that we are facing today. in hong looks at what stood in the way of action so far. nations have had their differences over how to keep our planet cool but the need to act well that something they have long agreed on will date as did that back in 1992 at the youth summit in rio de janeiro signing up to the u.n. framework convention on climate change even in the ninety's they recognised through this international treaty that climate change was a problem that human activity was the driving force and that we all need to act but what the treaty didn't address was how to reconcile the different interests of every nation on this planet so every year since 995 the conference of the parties to that treaty what we now refer to as the co-op have come together to try to work

it all out thousands of observers have joined them there's been debate negotiation a lot of science a lot of jargon and some major disagreements which makes the deal in paris in 2015 all the more remarkable countries united behind limiting warming the same tree to well below true degrees celsius above pre-industrial levels ideally one and a half they pledged to reduce emissions and developed nations committed to $100000000000.00 a year fund by 2020 to help poorer nations adept and develop a new planet friendly way. last year they agreed to most though not all of the rules on how to do it all with an eye on 2020 when they will lay via what they have done and plenty to question missions which is why what happens in 2019 really matches if rich nations fail to deliver on that $100000000000.00 climate finance

current revived disputes with the developing nations over emissions of countries fail to agree on cabin trading roles with bipolar to pay for their emissions it could interrupt the world's transition to clean energy and if nations fail to commit to new more ambitious pledges well that could undermine faith and the cop itself donald trump's plan to pull the united states out of the paris agreement late next year isn't helping and carbon emissions is still on the rise but as it stands every nation is that the table and politicians are still being confronted by the science no matter how unpalatable some i find it the years warmed by half a degree celsius and the 20 years after that 1st cup meeting a 995 but despite it some perfections the cup is the only multilateral climate form we have when nations can work on their differences and right now the future of

our planet to pins on that. russia one of the world's largest exporter as of natural gas has launched a huge new pipeline from siberia to china it will be about 3000 kilometers long connecting 2 fields in eastern siberia to a city on china's border where pipelines expected to be fully operational in 2025 it will supply 38000000000 cubic meters of gas a year from northern china andrew thomas reports. life is tough along china's border with siberia it's minus 12 degrees celsius there's not much industry not many jobs most around here use coal to cook and their homes. burning coal it's obviously very dirty it's polluting and also a lot of physical work but 2 big infrastructure projects are bringing change 1st is

this bridge opening next year it crosses the a more river frozen at the moment the river that divides russia and china the bridge will link the cities of blago vesture nest and her. i'm walking on the coast trucking of the bridge i feel proud when i tell friends are one of the contributors . but it's the 2nd project that is the most significant this is one of the most remote parts of china and just a kilometer or 2 over there is one of the most remote parts of russia and now linking the 2 is this pipeline it's an economic projects of course but it's all about politics to the power of siberia a pipeline is about to deliver gas from russia to cities across china it's cost 55000000000 dollars and on the russian side stretches more than 3000 kilometers the pipeline through china will eventually reach shanghai almost 3000 kilometers to

the south but. china it means well priced energy that's relatively clean but. other than for heating natural gas can be used to generate power is much better than oil and coal it has much last pollution and if you worry missions of c o 2 for russia the project is unlikely to make much money as the only feasible customer for gas from russia's eastern fields china bog and hard russia was keen because it is facing resistance to its plans to export more gas to europe some european countries and the united states have tried to block development of a new pipeline to germany they think it will leave europe too dependent on russian gas so russia wants to shore up its strategic ally to the east but china to more russian gas means less reliance on liquefied natural gas shipments from the united states and middle eastern countries potentially influenced by u.s.

policy the pipeline then is a strategic link as much as one about money after thomas al-jazeera her in northern china. well again the headlines on al-jazeera at least 2 people including a police officer have been killed in the eastern democratic republic of congo having gunfire can be heard around benny after hundreds of people march towards one of the 2 un peacekeeping bases there producer counties in beni and he says the situation is still volatile. some of the division i have just joined up with this town of bailey and they have been assisting soldiers. 1 this morning they have events actually did that they did previously but they killed one of the police officers here and his body was even. on the men of course here
