think it's a slap in the face to everybody who believes in justice and goodness and rightness . it's the least of the charges that you can imagine happening. and naming of the charges that don't even mention. names it's not just it is not justice kentucky's attorney general announced 3 charges of reckless endangerment against brett hankerson one of 3 officers who fired into the home of briana taylor in march she died seconds later there's no doubt that this is a gut wrenching emotional case and the pain that many people are feeling is understandable i deeply care about the value and sanctity of human life deserves protection and in this case a human life was lost. we cannot forget that the charges were for firing into the neighboring home of a white family of 3 not for the shooting of taylor the officer who fired the fatal shots was not charged. he said enough. that's not enough
10:03 am
taylor died after police firing their weapons stormed her apartment in march carrying out a no knock warrant for evidence against a friend of taylor's her boyfriend kenneth walker says that moments before they entered he had fired a shot through the door at what he thought were intruders taylor's family had hoped for murder charges the charges should have been murder a rest the cops all the cops should have been arrested how can you worse in the someone's home fire. kill them and not be charged with murder downtown louisville has been boarded up for days in anticipation a curfew set for 3 days on the car behind me you can see people including the shirtless man who are among the 1st people arrested in louisville police asked them to disperse they did not and then they ended up in handcuffs. armed sometimes angry men and women walk the streets with assault rifles.

a public health infrastructure and i divestment from the institutions of health and well being while we invest in our cars will systems and louisville a disproportionate 'd share of the city budget goes to hyper policing when it could go to system to care for the same systems of care that are preventing black communities from divers and especially in the covered 1000 crisis we have more that we can do and if the point for the success of pushing for the legislation to organize we have to mourn we have to grieve and then we have to look at policies not more should exist should be fired from one department of jurisdiction and a lot of work in another jurisdiction should never disappear fortunate share of our civic resources going to our systems of harm while i systems of care are completely under the you know under funded we need to think critically about these moments in our history because i don't want to have another unknown person another black person another black woman die at the hands of law enforcement we could be investing in systems of care that would prevent the east and said this is from occurring with the u.s. presidential election just over
10:07 am
a month away told trumpets refused to say where the hill except to peaceful transfer of power if you lose his front was evasive when asked the question during a white house briefing. we'll have to see what happens you know that i've been complaining very strongly about the ballots and the ballots are a disaster and that people are writing to you commit to making sure that there's a nice little word for all of the want to have get rid of the ballots and you'll have a very transpo have a very peaceful there won't be a transfer or frankly there will be a continuation of the ballots at a control you know it and you know who knows it better than anybody else the democrats know it better than anybody else. well democratic presidential kind of it j. biden has expressed disbelief over trump's comments he says the most rational thing i. don't want to say you're not surprised. when i tell her friend who is in more than a republican strategist he says the trump comments are less about the transfer of power and more about his concerns over
10:08 am
a fair election. the president has consistently said throughout the last few weeks that he is concerned about the election has said at rallies that he's not going to necessarily say right now means going to agree to the results because of the potential for fraud and it might be contested just as the democrat that's contested it 20 years ago and i might add hillary clinton the vice former candidate for the presidency has told by his president biden that he should not concede under any circumstances so i guess he doesn't have power but he's unwilling to concede or she's telling him not to concede even if it's clear that he lost so that's undermining democracy it's very polarized in our country the president is just simply saying let's watch out for voter fraud through mail in ballots and no i'm not going to commit to an election that he's uncertain or if you look at paterson new jersey where we have a lawsuit in and an already decided that lection needs to be run again because of mail in and and invalid ballots that's just very recent we've had situations in
10:09 am
clark county recently in nevada where we've had more ballots sent than people are on the registered rolls the same thing in los angeles county all democrat strongholds so the president is clear about something we've never had universal mail in voting at these suggested levels in states that have not tested the system in our history and yes there is concern it is not just the president is the attorney general the united states has voiced this and a number of other officials i will tell you this secretary of state of washington state a democrat said that state took 5 years to perfect their mail and voting no bad is proposing to do it in 6 weeks of course the president is correct. israel is imposing strict coronavirus measures after a surge in infractions over the past few days it's been less than a week since it imposed its 2nd nationwide shutdown of prime minister benjamin netanyahu says the restrictions are necessary to avoid the country from being pushed to quote the edge of the abyss let's take this all makes me cross want to
10:10 am

these big protests and protests close to the prime minister's residence here in west jerusalem instead people will have to protest in numbers no more than 20 no more than a kilometer from their home and also there is a consideration about the potential to close down the main international airport ben-gurion airport to departure is that something that will be discussed in the coming hours so i'm very very severe restriction more severe than what we saw back in march april and it's something that took a long time and very lengthy overnight meeting in a special smaller cabinet that was constructed just to get this arranged and a very divisive meeting that was with the finance minister saying that this was unprecedented in the world concerns about the impact of this economically indeed be coronaviruses are the commissioner who's been appointed to steward israel's
10:12 am
response to the pandemic he is also concerned about the financial impact of saying that it would have been enough just to take business is down to 50 percent but as far as benjamin netanyahu is concerned. there is a huge spike in new cases yes 70000 and if you think that earlier this year you're saying if things got back to 100 today that would be a requirement that's severe restrictions being imposed search shows just how far out of the numbers have gone and he says that the government needs to make obviously ari thanks for that their investors. still ahead here on al-jazeera. both causes far inspiration in central nigeria to people calling for. 3 of their family members were gunned down by indian soldiers why the military has begun disciplinary proceedings against their end.

10:14 am
too could even see a little bit of snow there into the alps for good measure across the net there is more in the way of sunshine here but still some of those showers a lot of sunshine to across northern parts of africa out of africa central or same big downpours some areas of nigeria cameroon seeing some lively showers over the next couple of days showers pushing all the way up towards senegal and easing out into the open waters by friday. frank assessments seeing that. there is. life being superficial informed opinion is ethiopia on the verge of a breakdown many calls on the only have region are actually under a de facto state of knowledge and see critical debate of that is a proxy he does not going to rescind the enters the bill if you feel in-depth analysis of the day's global headlines inside story on al-jazeera.
10:15 am

10:16 am
a week since israel impose its 2nd nationwide lockdown only essential businesses will remain and. now a south korean official who went missing from a fishing patrol boat on monday was shot dead and then burned by north korea that's according to the south korean military who says the man was trying to defect across the maritime border when he was spotted by north korean troops right is following developments from solid rock what more do we know about this. this is turning out to be a very serious incident the as we know now had a very gruesome outcome this all unfolded over the course of a couple of days at the start of this week it was on monday that the crew of this south korean patrol vessel discovered that this official had gone missing and then discovered on tuesday they say that he was spotted on some sort of flotation device or raft but in north korean waters just north of the boundary of the maritime
10:17 am
boundary between north korea and south korea and had been intercepted by a north korean patrol vessel and now south korean officials tell us that there was a lot of radio traffic between the north korean vessel and its headquarters presumably because intelligence had been listening in to that traffic and of the reveal that later on tuesday that's when they discovered that this official was shot multiple times and that the north korean soldiers on board the ship then set fire to his body now this has caused a as you would imagine a very angry reaction here in south korea south korean defense officials have condemned this as an act of brutality we've had a meeting thursday of the national security council with the president's office also issuing a condemnation and calling for a full apology from north korea and announcing that as as of now security measures are now being stepped up on the border there's always of course it's always very tense between the 2 koreas but more so right now. that's right
10:18 am
the level of tension seems to reflect the current state of play in relations between north and south korea and as we know the last few months relations have soured and that's part of the problem at the moment is that because of the souring of relations north korea has cut all of the hotlines across the d.m.z. so it's very difficult for south korea to make its. displeasure felt in north korea and get any kind of reaction and response or even an apology from north korea and it also does seem to indicate the level of paranoia that north korea seems to have about the covert 19 because we know from south korean officials that apparently the crew of this north korean vessel were wearing gas masks and the fact that they burned the body seems to be in indicate that they were taken extreme measures not to import covert 19 of course it remains about the only country in the world that claims it doesn't have any of the coronavirus and it wants to keep it
10:19 am
that way of course big given all of the myriad problems that it faces from sanctions and failed crops because of typhoon damage etc and it does seem to indicate the measures to which they are prepared to go to make sure that they don't get coated 19 or rob thanks for the insult. but it was simply said again crackdown on protesters and make. it sound like a shank who was sworn in as president in a surprise ceremony security forces use water cannon to disperse crowds because shanker has been under mounting pressure to resign after last month's disputed election in several countries say they will not recognize his presidency he's called his inauguration a victory for him but mainly as more. another day of confrontation between police and protesters imbalances kept. men who show how did who is counted as the police attempt to disperse crowds still i'm willing to budge. people calling
