a 1000000, people who live there entry to the region has been tightly controlled and phone and internet links cut since fighting began 3 weeks ago. in neighboring sudan as arches are struggling to help all the 43000, people who fled the fighting like a web is following events for us from nairobi in neighboring kenya. so tell us what you're hearing about the very latest from degree within the last hour or so. we've had those statements published online from 1st. the military's chiefs of staff and then prime minister made both of them saying that the city of macquarie is completely now on the control of the government forces. because there is no access there for humanitarian workers. and for journalists not been able to independently verify these claims, neither has there been any message from the leaders of the t.p.i. left. but this did follow reports of fighting in the city that the leadership had

earlier described as a heavy bombardment. but the prime minister spoke person refuted that there was any tactic to blanket we bombard the city and they've concluded reasserting that, they've taken great care not to harm any civilians. but if indeed these claims on the government side are true that the city has been taken. then there are some questions that remain where are the tepee left leadership now and where are the forces that they control? and indeed, malcolm, is it likely that this is the end of the offensive? well depending on, on the whereabouts of the leadership and also the, i mean they, i mean just a few days ago we understood they controlled tens of thousands of fighters and substantial military hardware and they have had several months to prepare for this conflict. it was, it was, it was in the pipeline for quite some time. now that the p.l.f. began their story in the 1970 s. as a guerrilla rebel movement, hiding out in the mountains in the to great province of ethiopia,

they overthrew in 1901, a marxist government controlled ethiopia in the seventy's in the eighty's. then they dominated ethiopia's politics. and its military for almost 30 years into prime minister took over 2 years ago. now, if they do indeed still control substantial numbers of troops and military hardware, then there's certainly a fear that they will have taken those back into the mountains and may continue or may resume this conflict as they began as a guerrilla force fighting from those mountain hideouts welcome went, thank you very much. indeed. the u.n. is appealing for 150000000 dollars to help the 10s of thousands, who've fled to gray, united nations high commissioner for refugees. people grandy, as visited the camp near sudan's eastern border with he says, much more support is needed for refugees. i want to join those who are, who are calling even more urgently for mediation and end of conflict. because

this is what these people around me are fleeing and they're still fleeing. the numbers have decreased the numbers of our rivals, but still they're in their hundreds per day. yesterday i was at the border and i met people just arriving more than $500.00 arrived yesterday through the various crossing points. i want to be on record to praise sudan for having kept its borders open. sudan already has a 1000000, refugees, countless displaced people, and yet it kept its borders open. it provided the 1st assistance, and now i'm here to coordinate and boost international support to sudan and mobilize resources for this response to be effective. we have some challenges. people are arriving at the border in various points. we have to transport them to sites like this one where i am now. it's an 8 hour drive through difficult broad's flimsy buses. it's not easy to do all this. it takes a bit of time,

but i had meetings with the authorities here in the region today. and i think we are beefing up by the way. i'm returning to how to tell him tonight. and i am going to appeal on behalf of all humanitarian agencies for $150000000.00. for the next 6 months, iran's supreme leader has found retaliation over there. cessation of the country's top nuclear scientist. tehran is blaming israel for the killing. it's declined to comment, but has put all its embassies on high alert. died in hospital on friday after his vehicle was ambushed by gunmen. i said big reports from town. protestors outside parliament for iran to stop the u.k. inspections by the international atomic energy agency. the anger follows the

killing of top scientists to moss. in fact, it is gunned down by attack is in his car in, a suburb east and the hieron on friday. his family speaking on state t.v., also called for revenge in shape that a nobody cared. he was a scientist and at the same time, a very kind and affectionate husband who loved his country. i plead to others to continue his path and to not let his blood go in vain. his path was very important for him and his blood was spilled for it as take charge on you. i tell the world's arrogance that if they were afraid of this mosque and this country's progress, and if they were worried about progress made by this mosque, you must be scared of his blood a 1000 times more. the world's arrogance has to know that by killing people like fuckers on the this path of progress will not be stopped. president hassan rouhani blamed israel for the assassination of iran's, most senior scientist been more am what i would say. the relevant authorities will respond to this crime in

a timely and appropriate manner. the iranian nation is smarter and wiser than falling into the trap of the zionist conspiracy. the supreme leader, ayatollah khomeini, also pledged retaliation, is asking for the perpetrators to be firmly prosecuted for the work of others to continue. iran has launched an investigation in what is an embarrassing breach of security. but political factions differ about what the response should be. this latest incident will impact on any plans u.s. president elect. joe biden has for talks with iran on the nuclear deal known as a joint comprehensive plan of action or j.c. reached in 2015. i think you will make any negotiations on the j.c. way, much more complicated and not just from the american side. i think it's going to be difficult enough for president biden, but it's further complicated by the reaction in iran to this killing, one of their most senior scientists. and you have the upcoming elections in iran in

a few months. so it's going to make it even were difficult for the moderates. who would like to see a pattern up in the jay c.p.o. way for now the world is watching and waiting to see what iran will do next. iran's reformists want to save the 2015 nuclear deal. that means waiting for joe biden to take office and hope the u.s. rejoins undef sanctions. the conservatives seem to have run out of patience. i want to stop i.a.e.a. inspections. others want a strong response. the country has fired one, but no one knows where, when or what form that will take assad bake al-jazeera the front. thousands of people have been protesting across france against a security door, restricting the filming, and publishing of police officers faces in paris. police fired tear gas at some demonstrators who it fires and built makeshift barricades. anger against the law has been fueled by video of the baiting and racial abuse of a black music producer by police about reports from paris. despite some

clashes between demonstrators and police, this protest in paris was largely peaceful. thousands of people gathered in the center of the city to rally against part of a planned law that would crack down on people's freedom to film and publish images of police on duty. the french government says it would protect the identity of police officers. those here say it's an erosion of rights is out of bounds. it's important not to let this law pass because it would destroy our freedom to inform, especially when we're seeing lots of police violence. and even if those offices are minority, it is too much. dora tarion trend is pushing us to say to the government. they must stop and change direction and let the police force know that there are these red lines. the protest comes just days after the broadcast of this shocking video, a black music producer, brutally beaten by police. and earlier in the week,

an inquiry was opened off to some officers were filmed, beating migrants, and journalists, as police cleared a migrant camp. without such videos, people here say some police officers could act with impunity. it's not only these protesters that are angry about the, nor a number of m.p.'s and senators of also expressed concern and even the un seaman rights council has called on frons to protect freedom so bad. it's putting a lot of pressure on the french government. the crisis prompted french president emanuel macro to post a message on social media. he condemned the recent images of police violence and urged his government to propose solutions to restore public confidence in the police force and protect rights. but those here say, unless the school, the north controversial, they will continue to protest the tasha butler and just 0 hours. still to come this half hour. the show must go on how laid off the u.k.

that's going towards greece? but vienna represents majority, i think, with temperatures dropping in the wind, picking up as a cold southeast would be wind chill to add to those snow showers for the sun will be a rarity. i think the snow proper will go down to his ball guerrier and rumania, maybe significant snow. i think during monday was rain, then coming to replace it was a slight rise in temperature for the british isles and the low countries, spain in portugal. fairly nice looking. same is true of spain. if you're in greece and turkey, think it shows think of thunderstorms, tickly in cyprus. so referred day or 2. then you've got the unfolding low to the west of portugal, which means rain down the coast of morocco and even into western sahara and all this time, argyria, tunisia, and libya. look, cheri a key figure of the early 20th century arab literary scene.

nationally, we need about a 1000000 people working over the next 18 years to get us to 0. when charlie met former theater technician, andrew blasted, he knew where to start looking for that enormous new work force. i see people build sets every day of their lives when i was working, you know, building, beautiful, magical things, entertain. people also have to be structurally strong because you know you've got to do a tough number on it and it's got to lift people. but this guy, i just thought, well, i bet they could at least have a go at this and call it a silver lining. maybe is a bit macabre situation is i'm just seeing as how we can help people right now or in a crisis. they've got skills, let's use them to fix this. i was it only for 16 years and i feel i feel as though i don't live in theater. i feel like it's all right. it's similar to what we used to do billing stuff. but what's different about what we used to do in theater, instead of along a trailer with a piece of set that's only built when you're just putting stuff together with
