hero, the world needs washing civilians, a skate conflict, atrocities in ethiopia. now there are fears neighboring eritrea could be drawn into the growing crisis. this is al jazeera live from doha. also coming up, armenia says it's 4 wheeled an assassination attempt on the prime minister. as families burned homes, they've been forced to leave as part of a cease fire with azerbaijan or fall over. well, now we're getting overrun. you must cancel the normal thanksgiving plans. states

across the u.s. announce more restrictions as the country hits a new high of daily covert cases. and president trump supporters take to the streets, backing election fraud claims, but he makes little progress in the courts. we begin with breaking news in a dramatic escalation in the civil war. in ethiopia, at least 3 rockets have been fired from ethiopia into eritrea, adding a regional dimension to the conflict. diplomats in the region say 2 of the rockets hit the eritrean capitals, airports. it comes on the 11th day of fighting between ethiopian government forces and leaders in the 2 gray region. the to grand people's liberation front had

earlier threatened eritrea. where fighting between to grain ethiopian forces has killed hundreds, and to grand leader has admitted its forces struck 1st, prompting ethiopia to launch an offensive in the region. the t.p.i. left also said it was behind rocket attacks on 2 airports in the neighboring region . there are reports of massacres and both sides queues off atrocities. a t.p.i. left dominated coalition politics in ethiopia for 30 years before prime minister ahmed came to power in 28. he get to go his goods on other gully and what? you must understand that the 2 great people are at risk, both internally and externally, eritrea on one end, ethiopian forces on all sides. this move was purely a self-defense measure small countries when they feel the risk of a stronger enemy which is about to destroy them. they often carry out a preemptive strike like this one of the middle mohammed that was in the city of

gondor on the border of the t gray region. he sent us this update. tell us about that list 3 missiles have been fired from the very region to the capital at a trailer 2 of those missiles hit the airport, the us model international airport, while another one, it's a tall building, housing, the ministry of information on a number of local media houses, but i witnessed this said that the missile that targeted the ministry of information to hit its target. well, outside the building, we don't have any word on casualties. but what we do know is that this is a community escalation of the conflict that has been restricted to the borders of ethiopia, and particularly to the ticket i know international borders. and it is something that could bring in at

a train into the conflict very quickly because of the cool friendship prime minister, ahmed of ethiopia, science of for the president of the trade enjoy also to greece have absolutely no relationship a long history of the most city with not just the present trip, but eritrea as a whole. this is huge by every measure. thousands of refugees have crossed into ever the corresponding ship and has moved from the hundreds of refugees continue to arrive here at the border reception center. now the center is just about 2 kilometers away from the sudan. if you appear border in sudan's, cassella states and hundreds of refugees have been pouring in. here in 200, a perception center with the number reaching up to 90000,

just over the past few days alone. now most of them live in conditions like this out in the open with no shelter and no proper sanitation. and this is raising concerns among aid organizations here, especially medics. that this will create a health crisis. medics say that most of the people who are right suffer from chest infections as well as malaria infections due to exhaustion from traveling for days escaping the fighting in the tigra region. most of the refugees was open to speak of the same horror saying that they have seen people being slaughtered, that they've seen aerial bombardment, which is made them fear for their lives and free here to sudan seeking safety and seeking humanitarian aide. now, medics say that they are quite concerned about the number of refugees and the influx. they say that they're expecting more than 1000 over the coming days. and that's just here. and it's what a reception center sudan says that it's expecting a total of up to 200000 in the coming week between here in kosovo state and out of state with both border if european and it's calling out for the international aid

organizations to help respond to what it's calling is turning out to be a refugee crisis. well, you know, lawrence is a former u.s. diplomat and professor of international service at george washington university. he says the rocket attacks on eritrea mark a serious escalation in the conflict. the 1st thing that come to mind when i think about this is 1st worse usually store for one set of reasons, escalate for another set of reasons. and then are settled on different terms than the original and the regional war was started. and also in this part of the world, any war is immediately syrian crisis because of economic situation. a lot of people on the way who are czar of and you've got a lot of different ethnic groups here. the fighting immediately effects suit being eritrea and ethiopia in sort of counter-intuitive ways in some cases. and that's always there. you've got ethnic animosities, reconsiders,

so almost anything as soon as the killing starts and the atrocities start on can spread to other areas rather quickly. it is going to deescalate eritrea doesn't really have a dog that fight. and even though they share our ethnic commonalities with their region, they're not politically our lives are also. so, you know, if i'm eritrea, i want to stay out of this is much of possible and prevent spillover as much as possible rather than choose sides. european nations continued to struggle with the 2nd wave of the corona virus pandemic prompting more countries to introduce even tougher restrictions. it's a house reported more than says he 7000 new infections in the past 24 hours. another 544 people have died. the u.k. has reported nearly 27000 new cases with another 460 deaths, and the death toll in poland has passed 10000 with

a record high of nearly 500 deaths reported on saturday, almost 2 thirds of the country's hospital beds and now occupied by cave and 900 patients 10 people have been killed in romania when a fire broke out in a covert 19 hospital ward. 7 more people were badly injured by the fire, which swept through intensive care in the northern city of p.r. to name or but one of the victims were patients. ramani is health minister says the fire was most likely started by an electrical short circuit and the united states has set yet another record for a new cave in 1000 cases, reporting more than 180000 infections in 24 hours. deaths also rising fast in hospital admissions are at their highest levels, yet some states have imposed in a complete shutdown. the u.s. sent to for disease control has forecasts that the death toll could jump by another

36000. in the next 4 weeks correspond, rob reynolds, who is live for us in los angeles, painted the picture. how bad is the at pride of our situation across the u.s. and is west yet to come with the approach we're into yes, i would say the picture that i would paint would be a very dark one. and your point about the approach of winter is, is, is very important because it's getting colder in many parts of the united states. that means that people can't congregate safely out of doors anymore. they're going indoors easier to spread the virus. and in addition to that, later this month, there is the holiday of thanksgiving tradition really involves big family gatherings. and in december there's the christmas holiday. again. the festive time and people are used to gathering together and people are suffering from 14 or

coronavirus fatigue as some call that. and so they're, they're kind of letting down their guard. but a lot of public officials, public health officials and political polls are calling on people to jail back their plans for any celebration this year for the holidays. so here's some of the numbers and you know, they're, they're not good more than a 1000 people. a day on average in the united states are now dying from coronavirus . there were 2 days, just this past week. there were more than 1400 deaths on 2 separate single day. since the pandemic began to spread in the united states, there have been more than 244000 deaths and millions of factions. and that virus is really getting certain parts very hard. now, for example, in the midwest or south dakota dirt, sparsely populated states, but nevertheless, the rates of infection and the protests perhaps,

but the death toll in those states is just about the highest anywhere on the planet . we're talking about europe earlier. so we're sure that wisconsin, another midwestern state, where again, it's very cold there. now, at this time of the year and the $777777.00, people were diagnosed with new positive findings on friday. so the, the forecasts from some respected health organizations, such as the university of washington's health metrics center are a pretty grim as well that center that institute forecast on friday. that by the beginning of march 2021, it could be as many as 438000 people who have passed away

from over the weekend in the united states. that's actually more than the number of military personnel for the united states who died in the 2nd world war. that is an incredible statistic, rob reynolds. many thanks for that. speaking to us, the correspondent from los angeles thousands of supporters of u.s. president donald trump have held a mass demonstration in washington, d.c. . chump encourage the protest and many echoed his claims of for war during the presidential election. but as al-jazeera as roslyn jordan reports, it's unlikely the enthusiasts and will impact the result. the briefest glimpse of u.s. president donald trump just blocks from the white house prompts a motorcade drove past thousands of people gathered on pennsylvania avenue on saturday morning for what they called their 1000000 mad march.

the protesters goal overturn the results of the november 3rd presidential election and give tromp a 2nd, 4 years in office. these demonstrators believe the media, the democratic party, and other sinister forces conspired to steal the vote from trump. my mission is to lead the british country, and especially for people for sure, we have not given up on the fact that there's irregularities in voting in your being picked every patriot who can hear my voice. it's a conspiracy being spread by some of the president's closest allies and lapped up by millions who have no control over our own destiny anymore. and so if there's a big corruption by finding and no media, when i say, oh, i mean literally on a.b.c.,, n.b.c. c.b.s., you know, going down the line. and just as quickly, being denied by elections,

officials from coast to coast in georgia, officials say they've already reviewed about 20 percent of the ballots and have yet to uncover any evidence of voting fraud in pennsylvania. no plans to hold a recount because joe biden's victory is wide enough to avoid one. it may have felt good for trump supporters to rally for an end to the vote counting, but with 51 percent of the popular vote and at least $306.00 electoral college votes. it's going to be joe biden, who takes the oath of office at noon on january 20th. whether or not trump supporters like it. rosalyn jordan al-jazeera, the white house, still ahead on al jazeera morocco sends its military to western saren faces accusations. it's threatening and they're betting yes. these final lifting the lid on egypt's ancient secrets archaeologist begin to examine a 100 newly found money. a

back on al-jazeera. the way the news you're watching out is there are mind top stories this hour. at least 3 rockets have been fired eritrea's capital in a major escalation of the conflict in northern if europea, an official in ethiopia's to great region threatened eritrea admitted its forces carried out an attack which sparked the fighting with addis ababa. i think armenians have been destroying their own homes as they leave nagorno-karabakh before sunday's handover of land to azerbaijan. i mean,

years and off furious at having to leave from cal, but on the road, out of the disputed region hoda abdel-hamid reports, they came for a last pilgrimage. very soon the monastery of that event will be off limits to armenians. nestled in the mountain gorge and killed by john a district west of the unclear evidence that's about to be returned to azerbaijan. russian peacekeepers are already here giving people a sense of safety, a final prayer, one more memory, a little souvenir to take back home. there's an overwhelming sense of defeat among going to mean years, often too difficult to express. stopping the war was the right thing, but not like this. it's unfair, but we have to do it. it wasn't an equal fight. the eyes of the world are wide open, but the world preferred oil and gold instead of justice and they sacrificed us, even though as ever john has promised to save guard historical and religious sites

. many fear they will be disagreed. it is still crossed as to tear, for centuries is now being dismantled along the road. and meg's it is towards armenia. people who were given only 6 days to pack belongings, accumulated over a lifetime are fleeing among them retreating armenian forces. and while they head out, russian peacekeepers are being deployed in killed by john. many people are not intent on leaving behind what they have built up over the past 3 decades. their sense of despair couldn't be bored, clear. smoke billowing from their homes that they've purposely set on fire, the memories of lifetimes in ashes. about $5000.00 ethnic armenians lived here. there's barely any one left village after village deserted. if you still remaining are preparing to leave soon. it's history that repeats itself. somehow. these are the ruins of the house of an azeri family. many others lived in this area, and they had to leave when azerbaijan lost the 1st kind of

a hole or in the early 1990, s. and armenia occupied this region back then hundreds of thousands of a series which is staffed of the and the 7 surrounding districts but some, i mean, is like several men at 2nd yan also had to relocate. and now he's doing so again, we're not leaving, we're being thrown out as a bludgeon, expelled us with this war and painful. i was insta penikett fighting. when i heard about the ceasefire, i didn't think about it, but it turns out that i've been displaced once more. i'm going to armenia, but i have no place thrown on to the streets. as we head out, an orange globe brightens the night. more houses set ablaze end no one around. i mean in presence here is truly over. this is the story of a capital, a ship, a departure with no date of return. but they still hope that one day they will come back, put up that hamid al-jazeera killed by john some adventure vader's in the capital.

he explains the peace deal and what it means for civilians there. as the deal is being signed between the armenians, the a very independent of the russians, the turks will not be present inside nagorno-karabakh. the turks will be part of the peacekeeping centers, but will be established close to the line of control the line of actual contact. and that is where they will be based. many of these details are still emerging. how many will they be? what will be their remit? what can they do? what will happen if they find something which is not in accordance with what others by john or the armenians want? so a lot of that is being thrashed out the other, even the armenians are not take directly talking to each other and the talking to each of the wire into media is so yes, it is slowly unfolding as we speak. what we know is deadline is that this 3 surrounding areas around the going to karbala,

have to be vacated by armenian forces, have to be handed over to azerbaijan. russian peacekeepers are going to come in. and then the other by joining forces are going to take control of their borders when there is a curfew that has been implemented in the areas that have been taken by the azerbaijani forces. the police forces for the last 28 years, who were stationed on this side of the divide have been asked to come. and so it is going to slowly unfold. and i asked one of the generals of the other by joining military, that what will it take to build trust between these 2 sides? and he stopped paused and he said in a word, tight reporters without borders has cautiously welcomed a decision by egypt to release 5 journalists from prison. but only 2 of them have been actually let go, and dozens more, remain in prison. last month, a group of american and european politicians called on president of the faculty c.c. to release activist lawyers, journalists, and prisoners of conscience on 60 journalists are in jail in egypt,

which ranks near the bottom of the list of the world freedom press index. well, one of those journalists is al jazeera is mahmoud hussein. he has now been held in an egyptian prison for more than $1400.00 days without charges or trial. he was arrested while on vacation with his family in cairo, back in 2016. his detention is in violation of both egyptian an international rule . factions in libya have agreed to hold nationwide elections in december next year. the decision was announced as u.n. sponsored talks in tunis, delegates, and they're negotiating the portman off an interim government military representatives have also been meeting in set in central libya. they're discussing the implementation of a cease fire deal, which was signed last month. a decades old truce in the disputed territory of weston's,

the horror appears to have ended. the region is claimed by morocco, a pro independence group in the area says morell can troops launched attacks in the territory. something morocco's government has denied laura besan. money reports, a conflict proves the 3 decades, but never resolved. now, a fragile truce in the western sahara between morocco and a pro independence group is under threat. the policies are in france has been fighting for an independent states in western sahara, an area where between mauritania to the south america to the north, with a population of around half a 1000000 people. but morocco also claims this vast stretch of desert. robert accuses policy of front of blocking a main highway that's preventing the flow of goods between mauritania and morocco. but the policy sario front accuses morocco of carrying out attacks against its

people and of igniting war. more all has publicly officially the fact of launching an arm and tack on millions, demonstrating peacefully in blatant violation has occurred of between the moron and the forces. brokers government held in the mergence the meeting to address the situation. this road is important when it comes to the movement of civilians and goods. and because such actions were a violation of the u.n. sponsored cease fire agreement, morocco, in order to fulfill its duties, ordered its military forces to intervene and build a sand barrier to protect the area from any future breaches. negotiations between morocco, the policy area and mauritania,

have remained suspended for several months. the u.n. is calling for restraint. the secretary general remains committed to doing his utmost to avoid the collapse of the cease fire that has been in place since 6 september 1991. and he is determined to do everything possible to remove all obstacle to the resumption of the political process, the 2 sides of battle for control of the region. since $975.00, when spain pulled out of the area, took control. but an armed rebellion led to a war that continued until 1991, when the un broke an armistice. but it's a complex that's left tens of thousands of people displaced from their homes. many of the sarai refugees have been living for decades in vast, sprawling camps along algeria's border with morocco. the conditions are harsh and they continue to rely on humanitarian assistance to survive. but the political

impasse continues, and it's unlikely these people return to their homes anytime soon. among the al-jazeera, america is permanent representative at the u.n. . he says, morocco has continued to call for peace with the palace area front and wants to protect civilians who may get course in the crossfire. biggest bang for the primacy of time for action. during one week, we have asked the secretary general and the minister to come visit them. we have requested to give a chance to 48 hours last week and we said ok, go use your agreements and it meant bitch after on monday, please give us more. 'd than 24 hours and after, but in the end we realize that this, the don't listen to all that, that the state or just the secretary general court did this in the vision board, the ministers and the vision,

asking them to even quote. ringback south africa and the president is of course of the us, please speak with them to pin them to free because this area was created all the time. and it's not the 1st time that the designer is doing this, does the district. but i think that is broken the road. what we are us is to open it for syria and turkey. that's what the secretary general made in his course of 21 of the october. thousands of people are back on the streets of peru protesting the dismissal of the former president martin biscotti. demonstrations have been going on for days and among the largest in 2 decades. he's 27 people have been wounded in the on rest. his car has been banned from leaving the country just days after being impeached amid allegations of corruption process to say his removal is politically motivated and he says,
