the kremlin critic to return from germany. but on the run the hundreds fleet west off for the tribal fighting kills more than 80 people. the center of the u.s. capitol resembles a fortress 3 days before president elect joe biden is sworn into office a militia wised green zone has been established and 25000 national guard troops deployed to washington d.c. potentially armed protests are expected elsewhere in the u.s. on sunday in support of baseless claims that donald trump won the election alan fischer has more now from the white house and what will happen in the 1st days of joe biden's presidency. joe biden made several claims during the campaign he said 1st of all they were going to get the united states back into the climate accord same than paris that's going to be done he also said that he would overturn

donald trump's so-called muslim ban that's the ban that it was and imposed on people traveling from mainly muslim countries that it's going to be done he's also going to turn his attention to covert because of course joe biden has been saying for a long time know that donald trump reaction has been very poor here's an interesting fact 20th of january is an important be an important day because in 2020 that was the 1st day that there was a case of covert confront in the united states the reaction over the last 12 months of the trumpet ministration has come in from a great deal of criticism and joe biden noise that from the 20th of january 2021 that's his problem so he really does have to make some actions he's going to introduce some economic measures he says will protect people student loans are going to be discussed as well clearly he wants to take action to stop people being kicked out of their homes a moratorium essentially on the victims and foreclosures for people who own their

homes he's also talking about the mosque challenge where he is going to say that you've got a way to mask if you're one federal property or 2 traveling interstate he wants to make sure that most of the population is wearing masks by day 100 some of the thousands of hondurans trying to make their way north to the u.s. a 4th with guatemalan police and soldiers security forces surrounded the group a highway in the quarter mile in town of a home though near the border with honduras or refugees migrants charged to pull out of offices they responded with batons and tear gas the group of about $6000.00 people traveling in what's called a caravan is trying to cross what amounted to reach mexico but eventually the u.s. border let's go live now to mexico city al jazeera sean holeman is there john what's happening with the caravan right now. well as you said it's him by the honde on though which is quite near the start of the country of guatemala close to the border with honduras so they still have

a go of their way through that country but it's quite small guatemala so if they do manage to advance and as you said the guatemala military and the police are trying to stop them from doing that then soon they'll be at the mets can border where they'll be another obstacle for them and that's because the mexican government as it has done in the past has sent elements of its national guard down to the southern border to try and stop them there now the guatemalan authorities like the mets can once basically have said we can't have people going through our national territory especially right now while we're struggling with cove it just an additional risk so some people have called that a pretext other people have called that a reason but whichever one it is them the guatemalan thirty's have said that you need a code test to get through the border along with other paperwork now these hondurans that are heading through mostly from poor areas especially from some petrel smaller that's been struggling from poverty also from crime violence lots of gangs they're

extorting and murdering the population a lot of them presumably aren't going to have those documents but they've still managed to force their way over the border and at the moment they're trying to get through guatemala you've covered caravans like this in the past john even walks with these people as they made their way across borders tell us something about the hopes the dreams what it is they're getting away from. in terms of hopes and dreams i think it's going to be the same for a lot of the people the traveling and that's to get to the united states now some of them may have noticed that there's going to be a change in the presidency there that president trump who's obviously been very tough against asylum seekers is going out joe biden who's been most sympathetic to asylum seekers is coming in now the acting customs and border protection chief has put out a statement basically saying don't waste your time money the rule of law and health

safety in the united states is not going to change it because there's a new administration see trying to send the message don't think that you're going to be able to get across the border just because incoming president joe biden is going to be in power from the 20th of january now in terms of what these people are coming through and we've been in honduras many times we've walked with these people as you say during many times as well poverty and violence those are the 2 things that they're fleeing from a lot of people are in a in a state in a country which has suffered from endeavor poverty for some time which is got worse there is gangs in some of the major cities particularly pedro sula which extort kidnap and murder among the population so those are the 2 things but also things have got worse recently and that's because in november 2 massive storms hit central america and hit honduras so since then a lot of people have really been hanging on on for the breadline is not the 1st

attempt by a caravan since then to try and get through and into guatemala past metz current to the united states is just the biggest one so far of the one that we've seen has perhaps made the most progress is john holdren reporting live from mexico city john many thanks. russian police have detained alexina vollies lawyer and some associates at an airport in moscow the kremlin critic supporters posted this video online saying that it shows them being taken away they were waiting for the volleys return from germany where he spent 5 months recovering from the agent poisoning this was not only his flight was about to take off from berlin he's accused russia's government of making threats to arrest him in a bid to keep him from coming home in the valley also said the kremlin was responsible for his poisoning something that it does know is let's go live now to moscow and alexandra gold for what's what are you hearing about what's happening at

the airport right now. well you see the plane carrying viney on board didn't even cross of the russian airspace when the tensions in the rest started on the the moscow airport 1st to be arrested as you say were a lawyer on the vine the in some associates then there was a journalist and some other people at this point there is on the on which is the russian special police units in the riot gear in the building of the airport around the airport building they're trying to push people out and a word to megaphones speaker to police is telling the citizens that they're there that no one that doesn't have tickets or boarding beds for tonight's flight cannot enter the airport building and that they should all wait outside so obviously they are taking moves in order to prevent violence supporters greeting him at the airports and instead it is going to be the police there to ease him now there is

a couple of 100 of people if we can judge by the videos coming from the airport that are at this point obviously waiting for a russian opposition or to come back home what is the only alleged to have done as far as russian authorities are concerned why the high security presence what is the best so concerned about. well what they are saying is that he violated his probation which was a part of his suspended sentence from 2014 that he did not report himself to the prison authorities and that they didn't know his whereabouts this this suspended sentence the terms of this then they ended on the 30th of december and they managed to sense to court they are there motion on the 29th asking the court to basically because he they allege the violated to this probation put him in jail for tree and

a half years now the prison door it is promised they're going to do everything they can to arrest him the moment he set his foot on russian soil that is what they are saying on the other hand all their moves and this is what the russian political analysts are saying are showing the fear of his return that's his or turn here is considered to be a baldwin brave i'm all for a return of a man that has been poisoned on the soil of russia that almost died from this poisoning where the authorities are saying that there is no proof of crime committed against him and that there is not even a charges brought in his case and all the proofs that have been submitted to them they're dismissing as not essential or not enough or not really the proof so his return is a symbolic gesture it's also sort of a thing that plays for his political future but also for the opposition in russia

showing them that there is nothing to be afraid of or xandra group for reporting live from moscow example many thanks dude. fighting in sudan's darfur region has left at least 83 people dead according to state media buildings were burned in the capital of war stuff for stage. people have been fleeing the region after the violence broke out over a dispute between different tribes a local civil society organizations says that on groups taking advantage of the coral escalating it's serious have a morgan reports from khartoum. but what's happened yesterday is 2 different incidents unfolded in the capital of a start for engineering now where clashes or conflicts between 2 opposing tribes members of 2 opposing tribes led to a fight that eventually increase in the number of people involved now at the same time and simultaneously there was an attack on a displacement camp and up to her since then up to this morning asked her state of

rapists he then vowed to build a border wall we're going to below mexico's going to pay for the little helping to attract a base of mostly white working class supporters whose fears of america's growing diversity contributed to trump's win from this day forward it's going to be only america 1st american 1st the wall trying to build though bill far short of what he promised these prototypes never advanced past the testing phase instead trump built 730 kilometers of fencing mostly to replace older sections and mexico didn't pay a penny of the $15000000000.00 price tag that money is coming from american taxpayers after trying to shut down the government for $35.00 days then declared a national emergency to commandeer some of the funding. still in the final days of his presidency trump returned to his so-called wall to tout it as

a win and i think when you see what it does and how it's so important for a country nobody's going to be touching it border arrests plunged during trump's 1st 3 months in office but then caravans of migrant families began traveling north from central america claiming to flee gang violence by the summer of trump's 2nd year in the white house unauthorized border crossings reached a 13 year high of more than $130000.00 a month it was in the midst of that surge that came trump's family separation policy that all agents took more than 4000 children from their parents at the border a practice that drew widespread condemnation and a judge quickly ordered the policy to end saying children were suffering irreparable harm and must be returned to their families but even today some 500 kids remain separated in its haste to do trumps will the u.s. government have lost track of their parents it's not as if the u.s.
