last year we had $200.00 murders the ripple effect of violence when it comes to the youth it stretches far why. the u.s. president speaks out against ethiopia's grand renaissance dam in defense of egypt's which fears for its water supplies. it's a very dangerous situation because egypt is not going to be able to live that way and they'll end up blowing up to them. i don't know matheson this is our desire live from doha also coming up guineas president alpha condé is confirmed as the winner of the elections that have brought firelands and allegations of fraud. refugees and migrants travelling to western

and they'll end up blowing up to them and i said they said loud and clear their block that them and they have to do something because they could've stopped addition or started long before starting as it had to let it get built and then you see the. trump preceded those words with actions he ordered aid for ethiopia to be stopped over its failure to respect a u.s. brokered agreement with egypt and sudan over the ground each opened a renaissance dam if you appear began to fill the dams reservoir in july provoking anger in egypt with u.s. president a close ally to egypt's of the fatah. he was asked to intervene as a peace broker. but it's open if it appeared at ease with trump's mediation and accused him of favoring egypt tromps latest remarks drew a quick response from each open prime minister and the g.o.p. has summoned my kareena the american ambassador to addis ababa in protest

occasional statements of belligerent threats to have ethiopia succumb to unfair terms still abound these threats and affronts to ethiopian sovereignty are misguided unproductive and clear violations of international law ethiopia will not cave into aggressions of any kind these are obviously pretty outrageous comments from from the president and suggest that he's not really in touch with the reality on the ground the idea of conflict just so this dispute over the nile has always been very far fetched ultimately hugely counterproductive it could lead to some sort of regional conflagration while tom's comments may have offended each o.p.m. pleased egypt few appear to be taking the threat of conflict or military action seriously it's unclear exactly what his motivation is i think part of it actually is vanity i think he's is pretty annoyed that the ethiopians. withdrew from the talks unilaterally. refused to show up to washington for what was meant to be the

last round of talks i don't think that there is a serious risk that egypt is going to proceed with any sort of military action. they've made pretty clear that that's not what their priority is but thompson statements are likely to push the crisis over each opiate an ethos dumped back into the spotlight and warn both sides not a failure to reach a solution could be dangerous. i'm dizzy ok i want to bring up not just to show you the region we're talking about now as we have the ground. has been built on the blue nile it's the line in dark blue on the map it's the source of most of the nile's water egypt and sudan downstream worry about how much of that is going to be diverted if the o.p.'s as the dams going to produce power that's essential and it's economic growth particle hanes in washington d.c. where she says trans comments on getting much reaction. most foreign policy doesn't especially when it comes to this president because he does tend to say these rather

inflammatory things he often in if you can think of several examples over the past 4 years where he threatens military action the doesn't come about that said it could raise concern because it could be seen as giving egypt permission you the u.s. permission to go ahead and take military action but again this is 10 days from the election i think most foreign countries are really waiting to see what happens keeping in mind that donald trump is far behind in the polls and we're seeing a record amount of voter turn out most of the polls 'd most with pundits predicting the trump could lose so any action by a foreign government that seems the that would be foolhardy at this point considering he might not be in the office come january 20th and the other consideration for anyone considering military action is congress egypt has already fallen out of favor with many members of congress because of their human rights record and various other things so even though the trump administration likes to say that it has this great relationship with egypt its relationship with the u.s.

congress is not quite as solid and don't forget congress controls who gets what what money when it comes to ethiopia the president has tried the financial basically the financial stick he said he was going to withdraw all financial aid from them and usual it's unusual because they're supposed to tell congress exactly how much aid they're taking back but they really haven't made clear exactly what programs they're cutting how much they're cutting but they've already tried the financial the stick so now the president possibly trying to move this along with the threat of military action but again it's 10 days to the election and nobody knows what's going to happen. well donald trump made those remarks about the dam after announcing the u.s. brokered deal for sudan and israel to start a normalizing ties it's part of a broader deal that allows the lifting of u.s. sanctions palestinians are calling it another stab in the back so the hands foreign minister says the deal still has to be approved by a yet to be formed parliament who development on the pull bit it's

a long process that requires a lot of work so this is an agreement to normalize that took place between sudan and israel and we are now waiting for the completion of the democratic institutions through the formation of the legislative council so that it can decide to ratify this agreement and if that happens then we will begin the steps towards normalization. morgan has the latest from khartoum on how this will impact sudan's economy. there were 2 announcements that were made by the us president donald trump yesterday the 1st which was more important to sudan was the issue of being delisted from the u.s. list of state sponsors of terrorism now sudan's government says that that will give it a lot of economic benefit especially after the inflation rose to a record high of more than 200 last month and market prices have increased making a basic commodities unavoidable for many sudanese now we've seen due to the hard currency shortage which is the result of a lack of foreign trade between sudan and other countries we've seen that got the

government of sudan the transitional government struggling to be able to pay for basic commodities such as weak and fuel which resulted in long queues at bakeries and petrol stations and more frustrations among people now on the 21st of october there were protests people saying that the government should step up and improve the economic conditions that they were living under and that's one of the reasons that maybe the major reason why sudan announced it is normalizing ties with israel now while that 2nd an announcement was made the sudanese acting going to offer an offense that says that it is not a complete normalization but people here in sudan feel like they've been taken advantage of they say that they were at a point of weakness due to the economy and that the government was forced to agree to the normalization because of its state of economy which has seen a lot of people suffering as a result. of humans in ramallah with more on the palestinian reaction. for palestinians normalization should only happen after that israel and its occupation

of palestinian and at a land occupied in $967.00 and this is why there has been a wide condemnation by the palestinians including the palestinian president he should the statement saying that israel should abide by international law and a few basin and that would lead to peace in the region this is why palestinians have been warning for years now that the arab peace initiative is going is not being respected because there are peace initiatives this was adopted by the different at a country's at the at or believed in 2002 states that normalization would only happen after the end of the occupation palestinians see it as a different parties in different countries in the world it giving israel 3 awards and 3 prize was. patient continues was the settlements are

expanding and lands are being confiscated the arab league itself has failed to its just palestinian draft resolution against normalization after the you 8 we had signed this deal and palestinians have said that they worry that more countries are going to be following suit this is what happened when behind then join the u.a.e. in signing they don't really deal with the say an announcer down has announced sourcing the normalization process for them they feel that they are i mean for palestinians they feel that they've been left alone iran's foreign ministry has responded to the deal between israel and sudan it too says pay an officer on some close your eyes for the crimes against palestinians and then he will be taken off the so-called terrorism blacklist obviously the list is as phony as the us fight against terrorism shameful dosage of bodies into hong with more. so they were really dismissing this as something that was prearranged and it's very

much in terms of somebody paid for something to get something in return in terms of iran sudan relationship it's interesting to note that they were very close until 2016 every iranian president prior to him the honey had paid a visit khartoum and the previous president of sudan aware of bashir had visited tehran twice there was a very strong relationship between the 2 countries they sever ties in 2016 and that had a lot to do with saudi arabia and iran's relationship as well as sudan's relationship with saudi arabia in january of 2016 in reaction to an execution that was carried out in saudi arabia of a shiite cleric the number of people stormed the saudi embassy in tehran and that's when the saudis withdrew their ambassador and sever ties and sudan followed suit at the same time and they haven't had a relationship since then but historically they've been very close and this might

the fact that over the past few years they haven't had a relationship this will just be another event that will. drive them further apart and make any kind of a reconciliation between the 2 countries that much more difficult going as election commission says presidents often called day one sunday's poll securing a controversial 3rd term condé one with almost 60 percent of the vote his main opponent and yellow barely got 34 percent counted supporters cheered as the announcement was made meantime the army is out on the streets to quell demonstrations at least $26.00 people have been killed since sunday's election nigeria's president has acknowledged that many lives have been lost during 2 weeks of protests people continue to block a major roads and set fires in lagos there's been growing anger over police brutality in nigeria the 20000000 residents of lagos state have been under a 24 hour curfew since tuesday. an explosion outside

danish aid workers have collected nearly 150 interviews for migrants and refugees he stayed croatian police beat them this migrant from bangladesh shows his scars. that i had that when they caught us they started beating us with sticks and kicking us as if we were animals then they searched us and took away our belongings our mobile phones and money before taking us back to the bosnian border bosnia is used by thousands of people fleeing unrest and war in the middle east central asia and north africa 3 years ago other nations closed their borders and disrupted migration paths through the balkans. but upon entering bosnia most migrants walk northwest to the country's long open border with croatia one of the last gateways to northern europe on this journey through croatia many of the migrants report being beaten and stripped naked forced to lay on each other some of them have described it as before

said i in a hash tag that the others have described as being forced to lie like logs being stacked on each other. their valuables have been taken their personal belongings destroyed or burned. in one case in 2 cases sorry we have reports of severe sexual abuse another migrant mohammad from pakistan says croatian police set dogs on him after he crossed the border 2 weeks ago before different as the poor. dog attacked the dog. report there to people guard the leg are no good going to police. after being beaten in croatia many are sent back to bosnia part of this narrative deal with wrong the injuries caused much hematoma covering a large surface of the body indicating severe damage to soft tissue in the area that is likely to incapacitate the injured and prevent them from attempting to

young voters in the us have the numbers to decide an election but that rarely happens this year was on track to continue that trend but that's not changed according to figures from tufts university a large number of young adults between the ages of 18 to 29 have been voting early in 3 battleground states compared to the last election in florida nearly 44000 voted early in 2016 this year so far more than 2. and 57000 have the north carolina it was 25000 last time now it's close 220-5000 and in michigan just more than 7 and a half 1000 young people voted early in the last election but so far this time 145200 have cast their ballots a part of what's brought young voters out is the anger following the police killing of george floyd john hendren reports from minneapolis on how that event could

impact this year's presidential election. when george floyd died beneath a minneapolis police officers need the youth of america filled the streets by the fountain. every 4th november many go a wall ghosting the ballot box i think my one vote is really going to make a big difference in the grand scheme of things and yeah i voted for hillary clinton last time and i felt bad doing it and it didn't make a lick of difference. young voters overwhelmingly lean liberal with 18 to 34 year olds in a recent poll preferring democrat joe biden over the republican president donald trump by a whopping $37.00 percentage points but americans over 60 are more than twice as likely to vote to be totally honest i'm not going to be voting for for either candidate. the ongoing protests over alleged police brutality against black

americans could change that sending more young voters to the polls i know a lot of people who will be voting for biden a college student at the university of minnesota adan boozing once back bernie sanders but now supports biden here in 28000 we already had the highest voter turnout of any large campus in the united states but i think i'll definitely continue after being in that dishonor the georgia flight protests in the democratic primary sanders was the clear favorite of young voters since the death of george floyd propelled the black lives matters movement and sent thousands of young demonstrators into the streets to demand changes in the way police treat black americans many have made joe biden their standard bearer but there remains an enthusiasm gap. here and across the u.s. that gap presents a challenge to the democratic party bertie is going to have to bring them on board and if you have to push hard to get them to vote so i think that the pro trump young group is more energized right now than the provided group and that age that

is apparent in the trump stores that have sprung up around the united. states a phenomenon few presidents have inspired the protests exam a key more likely to vote for john yes most definitely he's the changes place around and he's been doing a great job when it comes to young voters support the numbers are clearly with biden but with young trump voters showing more enthusiasm for the president all that really matters is who will show up john hendren al-jazeera minneapolis ok i want to take you to west palm beach that's where donald trump is voting in west palm beach in california and florida i should say is the 1st time an incumbent president is going to cast his vote in florida he spoke briefly. much it was very secure much more secure that when you send in a ballot i could tell you that everything was perfect very strict right by the rules when you send in your ballot could never be like that you could never be

secure like that and they did a fantastic job will be a great people and. so but it's an honor to be running it's an honor to be in this great area which i know so well and we're going to make 3 tops today big ones big rallies 3 big ones. ratchet never been i think there's ever been anything like your sister mentor spirit you know we're doing very well in florida and we're doing very well i hear every every place else so thank you very much and you're going to be very busy today because we're going to work you hard. or i voted for a guy named truck we can't. thank you very much everybody that's president donald trump i see moves into having voted in west palm beach he was saying that he was going to be making 3 stops today each of them big rallies he was also warning of course the usual message that mail in voting is less secure than doing it in person which of course the president was doing in west palm beach today ok let's move on

a media and azerbaijan are accusing each other of shouting residential areas as fighting continues in the disputed region of mcconnell caught a black areas and stuff on account city suffered heavy damage overnight hundreds of people have been killed since fighting began last month 2 russian brokered cease fires have failed well the challenge says more from goddess in southeast on the. 9 pm last night local time that's about 17 g. a volley of rockets or shells we don't at the moment quite know which smashed in to stir panic causing widespread damage setting off a fire at a gas main which nothing made it very difficult for fire services in the city to put out but thankfully causing as far as we're aware no casualties now stefana care because of its besieged nature the fact that it's been contested since 1904 has a well established system of air raid sirens and air raid shelters this was

actually though the 1st time that it is being attacked in almost a week so things in the city had been starting to relax and people have been coming out of the shelters and saw him to go about their business again even though other senses in and they're going to car back had been under fire in that time so this i think will make people feel very vulnerable again it will make people go back underground again and perhaps that's the point from the as ery perspective that they attacked nagorno-karabakh attacks just upon occurs purely to make people feel worried again. obviously the danger here is that you get into a cycle of revenge and tit for tat the nagorno-karabakh authorities are saying that they will respond to this and that there will be no forgiveness and indeed in the last couple of hours the as aries have said that a 16 year old girl was killed in a smirch rocket attack in the town of turtur i can't independently verify that at

the moment from where i am but this is the kind of situation we're in with attacks seemingly happening on on civilians on both sides. the u.s. has posted another record daily jumping over 19 cases early 84000 infections were announced on friday this art installation in washington highlights the growing toll with a white flag for every american who's lost their lives in germany deaths have gone beyond 10000 and infections have jumped to a new high of 15000 polish president and story today is the latest world leader to contract the virus and he tells us more from a european news center in london. it's unclear why president under a duda or wherever he became infected with covered 19 to his office has tweeted out a message saying that he is fine he did attend a conference in tallinn last monday where he met the well gary and president now

the barbarian president has gone into quarantine himself we haven't got any more details about the the condition of the polish president of that country has some worrying figures it's seen a 24 hour record in cases of over $13000.00 on friday there are measures coming in which are stricter than they have been including asking people over the age of 70 to stay indoors they're extremely worried about the direction their cases are going in slovakia there's been a record number of 24 hour cases almost 3000 in that small e.u. country and next door in the czech republic the. cases has gone over 15000 for the 1st time they've had 2 months of restriction so quite worrying for that government to see that it's not having the desired effect and then germany the country which was lauded for its response earlier in the year now with ortiz

there saying that the total number of covered 19 deaths has gone past $10000.00 and not only that over the 24 hours to saturday the number of new cases was $14714.00 that is a record so far and chancellor angela merkel has come out and said that what winter will be what our christmas will be will be decided in the days and weeks to come and i think that's a message that resonates with many political leaders around the continent i'm asking francis held prayers in tribute to a teacher who was beheaded last week there was a heavy police presence after threats against worshipers what a bullet proof vest several parties murder after showing cartoons of the prophet muhammad to students has caused outrage in france the attacker was shot dead by police. today as we were in this mosque it was the same friday a week ago that he was assassinated today we are in a free mosque a mosque

a bin laden meant it's called the al-noor mosque which means to light we're here to pray for him to pay homage to him and to have a minute of silence i find it this is the minimum that we can do. brazilians have been celebrating the landmark birthday of their national treasure the footballer pele he turned 80 on friday and to celebrate the christ the redeemer statue in rio de janeiro was a little yellow and green valley is widely considered to be one of the greatest football players in history and the only one to win 3 world cups. are about the some of the headlines on al-jazeera there are some bassett or any of the o.p.'s been summoned to president donald trump suggested egypt may blow up ethiopia's ground lessons down if the o.p.'s prime minister says his country won't be deterred by aggression sedan and egypt are both downstream of the dam and fear

it will.
