non-essential shops and restrict restaurant services until the 5th of december meanwhile austria has announced a curfew and partial closure of cafes bars and restaurants after $5600.00 new cases reported on friday the government has warned that $6000.00 daily infections would push hospitals beyond capacity the fokker reports. a major u. turn in the british government's covert 19 strategy for weeks the prime ministers insisted on local restrictions to avoid the need for a nationwide lockdown but infections have just continued rising as across much of europe the virus is spreading even faster than the reasonable worst case scenario of our scientific advisors from thursday into the store to december you must stay at home you merely leave home for specific reasons i'm afraid non-essential shops leisure and entertainment venues will be closed the virus is

spreading much faster than forecast the 2nd peak could be one and a half times higher than the 1st with as many as $4000.00 deaths a day the government hopes to use the new lockdown as an opportunity to dramatically accelerate testing there is one consolation most schools and universities can remain open and relief for parents struggling with childcare leading scientists advise the british government last month to introduce a 2 week circuit breaker lock down when the infection rate started to creep up again the government resisted citing concerns over the health of the economy in scotland where tighter restrictions have been in place in september there is some evidence to suggest that the infection rate there is calling it here in england boris johnson's gamble hasn't paid off the u.k. isn't the only country to announce a nationwide lockdown the austrian chancellor's order the closure of restaurants and hotels from choose day high schools and universities will move lessons online

and they'll be a nightly curfew the measures remain in place until early december. the greek government also announced a partial lockdown from tuesday with mandatory mask wearing gatherings. one by one europe's largest economies are switching from a piecemeal approach to the pandemic to more drastic measures france and germany reintroduced nationwide restrictions earlier this week the world health organization urged countries to act sooner or recover faster. but with many of europe's economies in trouble the prospect of more months of covert confinement is difficult to. leave barca al-jazeera london. not a christmas is a pirate just at the university of cambridge he says the u.k.'s lockdown is likely to be extended looking back in retrospect though it did take quite a while in march and april before we saw the numbers get down to the low levels we

enjoyed over the summer this is only a month so my fear is that what will happen is that the numbers will be curtailed by this measure but when reviewed in early december it'll be decided that we've still got a long way to go and we're going to have to keep with these measures i think that's a very real prospect unless there's a very radical turnaround and i don't see that happening. a greek orthodox priest has been shot and wounded in the french city the priest was fired on twice as he was closing a church a suspect has been arrested in march french police have arrested a 4th suspect linked to thursday's knife attack a nice 3 people were killed in the attack on a church david chaytor has more from that. here in nice have been a lot of people police patrols they've been increased around this specific are all day people have been arriving to pay tribute to the victims of the knife attack on

thursday night and during that time politicians been making some extreme statements some who said that they should change the constitution to allow a proper war to be fought on those who are who are coming from extreme islam is ideology they're not trying to say there's a war against the religion of islam but against this extreme ideology and at the same time president has reached out to try and calm events here and across the world he said that he of course understood why cartoons of the prophet muhammad did upset many muslims but he said also that any violence was unacceptable so he's moving towards trying to to moderate his tone at least to try and bring back to the communities to the values of france to police here in nice and

across the country and they are sending out many more patrols they've got assault rifles with them also there will be increased army patrols as part of operation sensible the number of troops on the ground in france will increase from 30027000 more than doubled to make sure the curacy around all the bundled places places like public park parks places like places of worship for all creeds and of course schools so tense and nervous here in nice and across many parts of france because they believe that there could be more attacks. but just as in pakistan's biggest city have burned effigies of french president emanuel mccall there been angry protests across several muslim countries after michael defended the right to mock religion and vowed to crack down on what he calls radical islam the rally in karachi follow similar protests in the capital islamabad on friday and hundreds of

people have been chanting anti french slogans in the west bank city of ramallah thousands of people also took part in rallies in hebron and east jerusalem earlier this week as to new shops have been removing french products from the shelves and many on my course sat down with al-jazeera to discuss the wave of anger against him the french president says what he calls radical islam is a threat to everybody including muslims welcome pauly sentiments in a very i understand the sentiments being expressed and i respect them but you must understand my role right now it's to do 2 things to promote calm and also to protect these rights. click here mostly causal to me what i want to say is very clear that today in the world there are people who distort islam and in the name of this religion that they claim to defend they kill they slaughter they make speeches justifying a kind of expulsion of human groups from the world today there is violence practiced by some extremist movements and individuals in the name of islam of

course this is a problem for islam because muslims are the 1st victims and as i mentioned before more than 80 percent of the victims of terrorism are muslims and this is a problem for all of us where yes a new civil liberties activist and the head of the justice and liberties for all committee he says it is out of touch. how can he on the one hand say he stands against a white record without ever defining it it would mean that in practice in france people have been right labeled radical muslims for fasting good with a month of ramadan for praying 5 times a day or wearing the headscarf in the same basket that would practicing muslims and terrorists killing muslims for us all around the world the us frame trying now to muslims and i understand your frustration august's and your feelings but i want to promote freedom of speech then how is it in france for example you get fined 7500 euros for this equating the french flag. i mean is accusing azerbaijan of

using volatile white phosphorous munitions in nagorno-karabakh in violation of international law the ministry of foreign affairs released this video saying syria civilian areas were near the scene of the attack white phosphorus is considered an incendiary weapon and its use is restricted under international law the disputed region is and as every territory but has been controlled by ethnic coming in forces since 1904. armenia says this market in the regional capitals to panic out was attacked by a scary forces after talks in geneva and the collapse of a 3rd ceasefire on media and azerbaijan agreed not to target civilian populations deliberately but both sides are accusing each other of breaking that agreement it comes i mean his prime minister has asked russia for help in the conflict where a challenge is following developments from amin is capital here. they call pressure on the armenian prime minister whose office you can see across the square behind me

tweeted out earlier today that despite the agreement reached not to target civilians and civilian infrastructure since the early morning azerbaijan has resumed its bombing of shushi panic at the azerbaijan leadership he said is not capable of fulfilling its own commitments and the civilians of new going to care about are his main enemy and target now he was referring to the fact that just yesterday on friday both these sides pledged not to target civilian populations and he's saying that that is exactly what the azerbaijanis have done the armies of also released a couple of video seemingly show the use of white phosphorus and incendiary munition that sends out burning lumps of white chemical full down causing horrendous injuries to anyone who is underneath restricted under international law and he says that the azerbaijanis have been using this against targets in the go on our camera

back where there are civilians presence now by john or thora jesus said that is absolutely not the case that they don't even possess such weaponry which is a restricted under international law we know that's not really the case though because both of these sides have been using cluster munitions are also restricted under international law and both of these sides have been bombing civilian targets with those in the last few weeks. i mean. government's response to the accusations of using white phosphorous. well this is have said right from the beginning that those accusations were groundless and just a few minutes ago. president has actually tweeted that armenia has used this white phosphorus.

show which their minions refer to. rory was just talking about. earlier in the day 3 of defense also said that it had intelligence. had moved. with. now accusations have been going in both directions about who is doing what and who is actually breaking international law. by johnny point of view. have been targeted. wasn't barred a few days ago 21 people. in the human rights watch issued a statement on friday. using exactly the same. something that.

refuses but when it comes to. about 91 people killed in the attack and. that happened in a few weeks ago still ahead the. president and just precessing battle it out in swing states ahead of tuesday's election. how i was still got a few showers in the forecast across eastern parts of australia but they are in the process of pushing out of the way and it will change quite nice because for the next day or so a little ridge of high pressure just not showing its way through so that will cheer things up across south australia on n.c. victoria there are the showers there if it towards sydney 21 celsius here on sunday

$21.00 celsius for some shabby rain to fall perth that's going to make its way further west where it's still a few showers coming in behind but the rain will not use way a little further east which is because through the next day brought disguises estates coming back into sydney with that warms up in adelaide a northerly wind coming in that interior and picking the temps up to 31 celsius so some lovely bobby conditions coming through not too bad to interfet toria at all sorry to tasmania where we will see some showers longer spells of right heading towards new zealand we've got some wet weather also heading towards japan over the next say this band of cloud moving across the korean peninsula will introduce some wet weather through north korea initially 2nd half of sunday sees that rain says again across south korea pushes through the sea of japan makes its way towards that western side of japan heavy at times eventually heading towards tokyo by monday.

think of some of the biggest companies in the world today all of them take with algorithms that they call them or do we use them the more data we produce where in the midst of a great race sit down and big tech companies around the chicks and cars are rising on a wild information and we need all the commodities and the 2nd the fox series be re-examined for the corporations are colonizing the internet like the popularity and power of think tack on a. one of the top stories here on jazeera the u.k.'s prime minister's ordered and national

knocked down for all of england set to last until the beginning of december announcement comes as britain surpasses more than 1000000 coronavirus infections the u.k. is europe's west hit country. french president emanuel my course says that what he calls radical islam is a threat to everybody including muslims and he just sat down with al-jazeera saying his role is both to promote calm and protect the rights for freedom of speech. and i mean years accusing azerbaijan of using white phosphorous in nagorno-karabakh volatile munitions are restricted under international law as a bridge ron says the accusations are ground mess. with just 3 days until the u.s. presidential election intensive campaigning is taking place in the key battleground states president donald trump is holding no fewer than 4 rallies in pennsylvania a state he won by the narrowest of margins 4 years ago or challenger joe biden has been speaking alongside former president barack obama in michigan trump trails in

the polls but is predicting a late surge will deliver him a victory. a great red wave. slows you're there as sure as we are here together that wave is forming and they see it they see it also. and there's not a thing they can do about it. dark time for the country but before it is the irony of all our nieces i think what's happened with these quadruple problems we have from the pandemic to what's going on relative to the. ratio on our knees to unemployment the recession as well as our situation internationally has taken a blinders off the american people she returns is live from washington d.c. she had to so just 3 days to go where will the election be decided.

well i think we've got these things and so it's pennsylvania but the states where. most trump and biden were campaigning on friday and it's interesting the listening to their campaign messages today it's very much about it's about turnout this is going to be the keep the key message in the key point and the message then isn't so much vote for me because i'm better than the other person would vote for me because the other person is is worse and what we're seeing when trying to talk about that red wave what they're really hoping for especially in states like in the midwest and in pennsylvania is the enormous number of white voters without a college degree who registered for this election who were registered last time around once we thought of the democratic party as the working class party not so longer on the case as the new democrats got closer and closer to wall street and so on so trump is making that argument once again look at biden we know his record he just outsources your jobs with wall street that make money out of the squeeze you

guys dry they'll ruin the economy. and construct does have that achievement that he renegotiated nafta was something obama promised to do but did not and obama just signed up america to another another big trade deal the transpacific partnership these are key messages to the working class voters in pennsylvania and in the midwest with as we saw on friday unfortunately there for trump he also has own record where he's clearly very close to wall street and he hasn't stopped the outsourcing or the decline in manufacturing but that may be enough then for people not necessarily to vote for vote for trump but i don't that's not necessarily enough for people to come out to vote for biden and go back to how things work which was well i mean a career politician is the term we keep hearing why go back to biden at least trump tried and failed but biden failed so you know that's that's the difficulty the biden is facing and we're already seeing seeing democratic strategist getting really worried now that turnout amongst particularly black and latino voters is

down so far an early vote. and places like pennsylvania because they're also what we're seeing in the poses the young there's a generational divide there to where younger voters younger black and minority voters are saying look trump is terrible but biden is very different from obama and that's why so it's urgency obama on the campaign trail now because there's always this lack of of almost accounting for the fact that it's the disappointment in obama that helped lead to the trump victory so obama's on safer ground by the safer ground when they talk about the pandemic not so much on the economic success which they still keep touting that apparently trump inherited because a lot of people didn't feel that but it's a really interesting interesting dynamic here about turnout trump now relying on white working class voters democrats getting a bit worried about turnout among stickley young black and latino is but but it's all about turnout now in the states she has a candy thank you very much. rescue workers are racing against time to save people trapped under the rubble in turkey a powerful earthquake on friday rumbled through the turkish province of izmir and

the greek island of some loss triggering a small tsunami at least 39 people have been killed and hundreds more injured soon cost you reports. this is the aftermath of the magnitude 7.0 earthquake. when the buildings in a small province collapsed within seconds killing dozens of people and injuring hundreds. some were buried alive this woman and her 3 children were pulled out of the rubble 23 hours after to earthquake. but there are similar stories throughout as my province here people wait to hear for any news and a sign that their loved ones may still be alive but that the rubble tropical depression people my sister is trapped under this 8 story building she just came home from work we waited with hope but she still hasn't been rescued yet she loved

scottish have to 2021st century matters and national hero people thought they could relate to him i mean he grew up in edinburgh tell me he was in the navy he was a war he came up the hard way and you can play rough tough role brilliantly. connery lived the highs and lows of the bond character profiting from his popularity and later scrutinized for some of calling his character his 60 attitude towards women it wasn't helped when connery told american journalist barbara walters women sometimes deserve to be slackers and i think his portrayal of james bond was a sense of miss sudden istic dinosaur to quote judi dench as a mean one of the such bond films later in life he supported the scottish national party and publicly advocated the scottish independence we have waited. nearly
