a lot of square in the center of bishkek early on to noon opposition leaders called for unity among the various parties and their supporters rejecting preliminary results in sunday's parliamentary election that showed pro-government parties potentially winning but 1st team of the $120.00 seats. demonstrators are demanding the rerun of the poll which one opposition leader described as the dirtiest of kurdistan's history if we are angry of the results because we say the government tricked everybody they created conditions for people to sell the of us allegations of election fraud a widespread as well as reports of parties bribing people for their support at the ballot box and new elections because we don't recognize. the results of the elections because of widespread fraud and intimidation chester's chanted for president soren baiji call to step down people told us they

had not seen any government protesters launches this since the revolution that overthrew president kurmanbek bakiyev in 2010. the fact that i'm staying here shows that i'm very angry with the results we had a lot of hope in this election and all hope has died. security forces have been transported on buses to a wooded park close to the square the protesters remain defiant. we can see the police on the outskirts of the square and if they attack us there will be another revolution the by nightfall the city center square with a clique in the field a crowd of protesters tried to break through the gates of the parliament building. minutes later security forces moved in foreign tear gas and stun grenades the crowd fled into the surrounding streets in panic. let's get

a chance traficant who is live for us in the capital bishkek charles an eventful night that since then the president has been calling for calm took us through what exactly you had to say. well firstly just give you a bit of a scene setter who the mood here smalling. there seems to be a mixture really of jubilation but grates on certainty here there is it's a very fluid situation on the ground a lot of people obviously very happy about what has happened the opposition supporters of multiple opposition parties celebrating what so many people here are describing already is this country's revolution so the revolution in the last 20 years it's too early to say that yes and certainly the president has come out this morning and called for calm but we were outside the presidential

sorry the parliament building. we saw. politicians who had been released from jail being greeted by the crowds we were hearing reports of various different opposition leaders and opposition supporters claiming that they have control of various ministries and state institutions we understand the former president out some boy who was released from jail in the early hours of this morning we understand he's expected to give a speech in the next or so and as you say meanwhile the president has come out the smalling and called for calm saying that peace and security of the most important things for this country right now and let's have a listen to what more he had to say. calmness in the state and stability of society a move valuable than any dippy mandate i suggested at this. central election

commission carefully investigate the violations and if necessary and now the election results i urge the leaders of the political parties to calm their supporters and move them away from their places of concentration a call on all my compatriots to keep the peace and not give in to the calls of the provocative forces. i guess the question is will the comments from the president calm protest is there a lot of people still milling about behind you is there a suggestion they could be more protests tonight. and it's pretty easy to say at the moment that those kind of comments from the president are not having much sway much kind of impact on the protesters as you rightly say there are people milling around here there are a lot more people here this morning but now they've dispersed to various various places around the city as i mentioned this speech expected from the release of former president some by of who was serving an 11 year jail for corruption charges

. we're also hearing that there have been protests. trying to be protests starting in the town of as well being put together by pro government members of pro-government qualities we understand that that sound which is very important in the south seems to be split between pro-government and opposition supporters we're also hearing that a key figure in these these demonstrations this program on the wrist a man called ram but much more of who was believed to be the backer of one of the most powerful pro-government qualities the according to the election results and election that is seen as fooled was doing very well that was set to get. a sizable amount of seats in parliament now this man has a very dubious reputation and is alleged to have made millions through the time illegally when he was deputy head of customs somebody who was seen as very program

we're hearing reports that he has fled the country to switzerland we can't confirm those reports as i say there is an increase it is incredibly fluid situation here at the moment certainly though it is safe to say that those. a comment from the president i'm not going to have much war with the protesters here but it's also important to recognize that whereas in the run up to this election we had healthy debates not only between the opposition and pro-government parties but also amongst the opposition groups to yesterday here in the square a greater sense of unity among those opposition groups opposition party leaders telling their supporters to put down their flags and raise the flag of kyrgyzstan 24 hours later the situation on the ground is very different and we are beginning to cease its in that unity of potential rivalries in and amongst

opposition groups so a very difficult situation to read it's going to be a very interesting day ahead. indeed child. at the in the capital bishkek keeping across that it's and there a fluid situation as you describe it. let's move on indonesian workers are protesting across the country a day off so controversial bill creation job creation bill was passed. the government revised over 17 doors to loosen regulations and worker rights and the environment demonstrators say it could lead to exploitation and uncontrolled before station but the government augie's it's needed to boost investment the economy which has been crippled by the corona virus and make let's get more on this week and speak to jessica washington who is in jakarta for us jessica the economy has genuinely been hit really hard by coronavirus so the government says these

measures are putting being put in place to help get things going again which makes sense but how exactly are they going to impact work is why they're so angry. that's right the economy has been hit hard by the pandemic indonesia is experiencing a severe economic contraction almost level with what was experienced in the ninety's during the asian financial crisis now the government says the reason that it needed to follow this bill into legislation was because the economy is struggling as a result of. but it workers factory workers say that they will bear the brunt of the effect of this legislation as the government tries to roll out the red carpet to make indonesia a more attractive destination for investment in particular foreign investment that they will be the ones who suffer as part of this many of the rights that they've

enjoyed for years including rights to severance pay leave pavements and things along those lines will be border down so factory workers many of them already low income earners say that they will suffer as a result of this bill and that they will continue to protest and they will take their fight to the constitutional court and there's also a lot of concern about how this is going to impact the environment specifically deforestation took us through why that's the case. well in tunisia already has one of the highest rates of deforestation in the wells and as the government tries to make it an attractive destination for foreign investment i've been trying to do what they're saying reduce red tape and part of that means reducing some of the requirements of environmental standards so some of the areas of industries which would have otherwise required environmental permits

will no longer need that sort of commission to go ahead with their work anymore so environmental activists say that this is really opening up the floodgates for deforestation and all the environmental destruction to go ahead to washington for us in the very next. still ahead on al-jazeera. calls for an immediate cease fire as the conflict between on mania and azerbaijan intensifies. small game india is heading the fight against the coronavirus and the government says it's been forced to take drastic action.

populations been marginalized and most have lived in poverty for generations watching the investment from his getting jobs has ceded discontent and fueled the rebellion which some analysts say could stop the gas projects entirely i think there. is no this project will not go forward. yes and no nearby indians and here. mozambique's armed forces have steadily lost ground to the armed groups military support from the european union and funding from the us both being discussed but nothing's been finalized yet. securing the coastal kathy extraction facilities might be possible securing the 2000000 people who live across the province will be

much more difficult malcolm webb al-jazeera let's get more on this we can speak to. senior consultant for southern africa for the international crisis group and to us from johannesburg via skype many thanks for joining us on al-jazeera. so as we had in that report there has been an escalation in violence in recent months what is behind that. well a 2 primary. factors only will. increase capacity and competence to insurgents. have demonstration speech to quite sophisticated attacks numbers. today and also to be able to respond to the counterinsurgency efforts by the government since april we've seen them in. the efforts to take the fight to the insurgents in

a number of areas and this is so that i'm proud of the military company so we see a lot more active engagement by both sides of that it's quite clear the numbers the new solutions maintain the initial those they're responsible for all the costs. in the majority of the attacks that are still in the moment so it's been a significant increase. in the insurgency in terms of. the number of actors in play the number of incidents and and the number of casualties and as we've seen . i.d.p.'s as well which have doubled in the last 6 months and who are these insurgents are they are they also bad mostly or are they other groups involved. well the name us about is is not the confused. mali. this is a group that is the name that has adopted it locally and many of or to

reverse themselves as about. just seeing the islamic saint known for sure is really used. although this doesn't mean that it. doesn't help influence and it also doesn't mean that there are but it does we know that there are a number of foreign fighters particularly from the region in terms of. oh engaged in the insurgency or the marriage is a local a locally driven initiative where we see in terms of the connection. some describe as a rancher. roy or. insurgency which we've seen them do in other parts of the. what is the root cause of this violence mozambique as we had there is rich in mineral resources discovered in 2010 but what

is sadly the case in many african countries is that wealth fails to filter to the rest of the population is that the problem it's these people disenfranchised joining these insurgent groups. well there are a number of factors that are in play the origins of this insurgency appear to relate to some clear individual. cover though which i'm opposed to over the last decade. period around 20 or teen through 201617 also relates to development for the new all. that's near related some of the ideological. evidence in the government there are all socio economic conditions. there are issues around elicits economies the heroin trade. all big question of course is how does one way these

different push and pull factors that are in play and that's where there are significant differences amongst analysts in this regard and i think there is a common sense that we need much more greater understanding of all these different factors and all of the or to understand how the weight of the men how is your labor challenge interesting to talk to the pace pick you there from the international crisis group speaking to us from johannesburg. 10 days into the conflict between armenia and azerbaijan both sides appear to be ramping up hostilities over the disputed territory ethnic on account of back nato his chief has added his voice to calls for an immediate ceasefire cynicus only reports from in azerbaijan. style spire gentlemen governor itch the 4th largest city in azerbaijan 2 of them hit a nearby hydro power complex which is the largest in the caucasus region as
