because it happened under their watch. but many of the allegations in this report will be extremely confronting to many people, including the families of alleged victims in afghanistan. some of them include june, new soldiers being encouraged to execute prisoners, just to get what they call their 1st kill. and it also includes weapons being planted on bodies to conceal some of this alleged criminal activity. so from here, because this was just an administrative process, a special investigator will be appointed to gather evidence to try and work out which cases can be brought to the legal system and the chief of defense force in australia. angus campbell has said that he wants any of these crimes to be dealt with domestically in the modified his direction of the afghanistan human rights and

democracy organization. he says families of the victims need support and the process must be transparent for all it is a very good good report. establishing a number of important incidents, identifying the type of war crimes allegedly committed met us of killing and torture. used and provide in significant detail about come on dispensed responsibilities across what were our u.s. military units and defining the applicant, a legal framework. and bringing that also examples of prosecution of war crimes from other countries, including history of war crimes, committed by australian military and become handing witness and welfare support program. what is actually that? that report is badly missing. 8, a commendation of support to victims and, and families of the victims in afghanistan, it is profoundly shocking and as shocking for all of us in afghanistan in particularly shocking and traumatizing for the families of the victims. and we know

that that has been cover up. and as far as you know, the killings and murders of these civilians or concern and their families have the if they're going for a long, long time you need to know what are what actually the reality is. and the truth and what is important at this stage is you know, that they have to know about more about the truth. and they expect basically nothing more than a thorough and transparent and credible investigation into all this alleged war crimes that happened in afghanistan. and also they want to be provided an opportunity to take part in the process if you will be, as prime minister says government troops are closer to victory against forces in the northern region. but fightings forced thousands to cross into saddam over the past 2 weeks. many have gone for days without food, but aid is starting to arrive here. but morgan reports from the eastern states or

got a leaf on the border more than a week after the arrival of refugees to this cabin. the 1st apply of food aid is starting to trickle and also as flour and oil is rationed out between the families who've come here hundreds lined up to receive their share. most of them have left their children back in shelters and withstand scorching sun while they wait. they are desperate. perhaps it is some of that then a challenge. that would mean. i'm glad that it. organizations have started distributing food. a lot of people were going hungry. some of us had gone for 2 or 3 days without food. there was a whole day that my kids and i went without any food. the now is 8 here. we can have meals, and it's been 10 days since i came here from a country. and in those 10 days we haven't eaten proper meals, we are hungry and we have small children to feed. now we are going to get some food . and we think god for that, because over the past 10 days we didn't receive anything. we hope they bring more because this will not be enough for the many families here. both of those are 2 of

the nearly 15000 residents of the camp, which was opened less than 2 weeks ago. they come from the region in northern ethiopia, where the government has launched an offensive more than 30000 have fled to neighboring sudan since the start of the conflict, including to state aid organizations say thousands more. integrate are facing a dire humanitarian situation with this government imposing a communications blackout and blocking access to the region. many refugees arriving at the sudanese border are exhausted and hungry. so far, most of the food for the refugees has come from local communities around the border point and refugee camps. but the communities themselves face economic hardships, as sudan, battle soaring market prices, and the number of those crossing the border to escape the fighting into great is rising. many who said the 4 days without food now have something to eat. but the country, the refugees are arriving too has its own set of problems, including

a state of emergency floods in september damaged many roads. and that is now one during a delivery. so the challenge is to remain there, but what we're doing is that we have enough food stocks in the country has w f. b. i wasn't able really to pull on food from other areas where we had surpluses to try to prepare food here. as we speak right now, we have about enough food 46270000 people already here on site. and these are distributed of course, which are of course under god if as well where we are right now. they're refugees don't know how long they will remain in the camps for now they just please to be safe and have food for their families. people, morgan, al-jazeera, and of out of state i mean is prime minister is promising to change the military and the electoral system as he faces pressure to resign. their demands for nicol pushing the un to step down after he signed a deal to hand over parts of the go on a car, back to azerbaijan. after 6 weeks of fighting rallies organized by pro and anti-government,

you eat. they've faced a legacy of canada's colonial policies and are already vulnerable. jobs are scarce and a housing shortage means homes are overcrowded. something that's especially dangerous during a pandemic and a lock down. nothing good comes out of overcrowded house. you have mental health issues. you have health issues, you may have family violence issues. there are only 2 hospitals in the territory, and residents are regularly flown to southern canada for medical treatment. no one's been flown out because of coded 19 yet, but the health system is nearly at its limit. that's the rationale for bringing these orders in place because everything that newly and do to reduce their contacts, to reduce the size of their social bubble. that helps that helps reduce the impact of covert 19 gatherings are restricted schools and non-essential businesses are

a woman's lives is at risk. i'm in 2018. at bill was passed in the lower house, but failed to get senate have proven abortion to the controversial issue in the catholic country. and there are some sectors of society, but i don't hold it. but this is what many here say that of course, you know it happening in atlanta family way and that's why thousands of women are hospitalized every year. most of those women who have fought to go to robert doctor and end up trying to terminate their pregnancies in back room. you see tears that are unsafe and illegal human rights groups say, legalizing abortion is a matter of public health. and that's why they're pushing all foodies to take action by turning public buildings green. the color that has come to rivers and the call to legalize abortion in latin america to some legislator, i already say that they are, they are in favor of abortion. come on, this is there, maybe they don't fight against abortion on it. something we know who they are,

it's ok, but some, it is a lot, i doubt. and we are trying to talk to both who are doubting in our little bunny than to sell them how we think or backyard, and be nice to finally have a big, nice, a family safe on a far more fun to baffle rob, why angle yanna are the only latin american countries that permeate pregnancies to be terminated in the 1st weeks. the 1000000000 argentina would allow women to have an abortion during the 1st 14 weeks of pregnancy. the measure is also accompanied by a 1000 days surance policy that will assist women who want to have their babies. but the bill faces strong opposition, especially from the catholic church. both francis compared having an abortion to hiring a hit man, and many in the country agree an orderly. once again, they are taking abortion law. they want to tell us abortion is the solution for poverty. in argentina, we ask all good argentinians to do what they can on the streets to pressure

legislators to oppose the bill. the abortion law cannot make it to congress. the law is likely to be debated in december during an extra sessions. these people say they'll remain on the streets pressuring congress to legalize abortion and helping women to get the treatment they desperately need. chileans are demanding the resignation of president. sebastian pinera after a crackdown of demonstrations based in santiago, have used water cannon to dispose crowds and arrested people near the presidential palace 3 weeks ago. chileans voted in favor of rewriting the constitution. after more than a year of protests, there also demanding the release of activists who've been jailed. britain's prime minister has unveiled what he's calling a green industrial revolution. the goal is to cut the u.k.'s carbon emissions to 0 in the next 30 years. or as johnson's proposal includes stopping the sale of

vehicles a decade earlier than previously expected at him barbara ports one it's an ambitious plan to cut pollution from traffic. britain set to ban the sale of new petulant diesel vehicles by 203010 years earlier than originally showed jewels. some hybrids will still be allowed, but they'll be grants for electric cars and funding for charging points. all part of a new 10 point plan aimed at making sure the u.k. meets its commitment to achieve net 0 carbon emissions by 2050. prime minister boris johnson is calling it agreed industrial revolution. the plan aims to create up 225-0000, highly skilled green jobs by 2030. it includes a pledge to make london the center of global green finance and involves mobilizing 16000000000 dollars of government money with the private sector providing up to $3.00 times that amount. one highlight is a pledge to quadruple offshore wind power by 2030,

producing enough electricity to power every u.k. home, as well as a big boost in hydrogen production. but the opposition labor party says only a 3rd of the program is new money pointing out. countries such as germany and france are investing tens of billions of dollars for this expert. it's a small step in the right direction. just a few weeks ago we identified that the government was spending just a 10th of what's needed every year to meet. net 033000000000 pounds a year is what's needed every year over this parliament. what's been announced today is welcome, but it does fall short from what we think is needed. the plan involves greater investment in new nuclear power plants as part of the non carbon energy mix. it also includes funds to insulate homes and public buildings responsible for roughly a 3rd of the u.k.'s carbon emissions as well as tree planting programs. a new carbon capture initiatives. but there's nothing about something environmental campaigners want to see a frequent flyer levy. we believe in this was supported by the u.k.'s climate

cinemas. and for those who live in doha, they can buy a ticket for an outdoor drive, and at a time when many people around the world face social restrictions, a mix of foreign films, food, provoking issues, reality fantasy. and maybe just a little bit of hope is a welcome escape, even if it's just for an hour or 2. stephanie decker, al jazeera, doha, this is al-jazeera. these are the top stories. an inquiry into the conduct of australian special forces in afghanistan has found credible evidence of multiple war crimes. the report also details $39.00 on lawful killings of civilians or prisoners. turning to the inspector general's report, he found none of the alleged unlawful killings would have.
