ah, 25 years of al jazeera, a unique path. always different. always question. ah, mm. mm. sedans, miniature leader orders the release of 4 civilian ministers as top u. n. and foreign leaders call for return of the asked a prime minister. ah, hello don jordan, this is are 0. lie from dough are also coming up. they're going calls for a cease fire in ethiopia, as fighters from the northern tigress region continue their advances. a warning on cobra 19 devils in europe. the world health organization says the continent is once again the pandemic epicenter. and as the climate summit continues in scotland,

a new report says global emissions are once again on the rise. ah, sedans, military leader, as agreed with the us on the need to speed up the formation of a new government, general abdel fatter alberto hans office released a statement after you spoke on the phone with us secretary of state anthony, blinking earlier, he ordered the release of for sibley em cabinet ministers detained in last month's military take ober thousands have been protesting, and cartoon calling for a democratic transition. even morgan is in the capital with more on the release of the cabinet ministers for ministers of the civilian political detainees have been arrested on the eve of the military takeover have been released there. the minister of communication, the minister of trade, the minister of youth and sports, and the minister of a committee of information. now those 4 ministers are just some of the people who

have been arrested. the minister of industry, who was also at one of those who has, who was taken on the morning of the military coup, has not been released along with the spokesperson of the now dissolved sovereignty council mohammed and fricky. as well as the minister in the office of the prime minister or who's, who's also the cabinet cabinets minister. he's also yet to be released and their whereabouts are yet to be revealed. now prime minister album amsec is still under house arrest despite the fact that he's been taken from general abdel for residence . where he was, when he was on the day of the call, where he was taken on the day of the call. and he was returned back to his house to the foreign ministers who happened when these are just some of those who have been arrested on the morning of the cool. and there were also activists and lawyers who are arrested. now this all comes as mediation efforts continue between prime minister of the ham dog and general abdel, put that behind who said that you want to form a civilian cabinet and he had hoped that prime minister optima hm dog will be

leading that cabinet. now, prime minister of the lamb dog who is under house arrest, had stated that he wants the release of all political prisoners who have been arrested, including the activists. and then he would be willing to negotiate with the head of the army, general abdel hon. he's also asked for the ration of that civilian government, which has been dissolved on the morning of the coo, and he says he wants the country to return back to the day of october 24th. that's the day before the military takeover. so let's bring in eric reeves is a sedan analyst and fellow at the rift valley institute. he joins us from north hampton, in massachusetts. eric, so we've seen sedans, military ruler, now order the release of for civilian cabinet members. how much is this in response to think to growing international pressure from key players, especially the united states. i think it's a sign that he feels obliged to provide us with some window dressing, but that that's, that's all we've got here. the, those who remain arrested those who remain out of the ministries from which they

were fired by the military all make, returning to october 24th, an extremely unlikely event. we had tensions between the military and the civilians . unfortunately, what seems to be happening as a civilian is being defined by the u. n. and by the wes, as oh, prime minister him doc in any one he can get to agree with him. but they are quite out of touch with the reality of politicians. people, the street, the sudanese professionals association, all the real political forces in sudan have no willingness whatsoever to go back to october. 24th. ok, so let's, let's expand on the u. s. role here because you are 2nd of state, anthony blinkin and sedans, military leader general albert han, now agreed on the phone on the need to accelerate the formation of this government . how much re leverage eric? does that us have over sedan?

not that much. and that's why i think what we're seeing is both the u. s. and the un catering to the military. if you look the comments day by folk repair, the un special envoy for sudan, who's doing the dirty work of the negotiating. he's making a clear that that's his view. the things need to happen in a hurry. he says. now the question is, are both sides willing to accept us? commit to this agreement. but bo site here who's we are, what the military side is, what's on the civilian side, is the just prime minister handbook does it include the ministers who were arrested and are still under arrest? i think would have getting a very skewed view of what civilian means. in sudan at the present moment from the us and from the win. okay, so you talk about caving in to the military, eric, but all we now seeing the makings of a coo being reverse because some reports suggest that

a dollar handled will be involved in some kind of new pass sharing administration. isn't this a good thing because it reinstates the southern council and in a way, i guess, saves face for the military as well? i don't think so. i think again, we need to consider the attitudes of the real political forces in sudan, which unfortunately are not represented by prime minister, have not much more by those who remain detained or out of their jobs because of the military. the military has, in effect, issued an ultimatum to the international community. you ever get hammock and whatever civilians you can to agree with us on what the form of government will be answered and going forward or were walking. and that's a big threat. we've got as many guns and as many men willing to use those guns against innocent civilians as you do with these cool leaders. i'm just

a final thought to you. the u. s. special envoy for the horn of africa, jeffrey feltman. he's back in the region now dealing with a conflict in ethiopia. how significant though, is his role in helping to facilitate the transitional process and restore democracy in sudan. he's got to crises on his patch is a very busy man. is me? he is. and i think he'll be devoting his time to ethiopia with secret blinking and un special envoy perth, so deeply involved in the negotiations with cool liter general. i'm very unlikely that tom is going be able to insert himself in a meaningful way. this comes down to what lincoln and perth are going to agree to with him doc and the military. but that's a very, very small part of what matter, city sudan agrees really good to get your insight. thank you very much. indeed for talking to us. thank you. now the un security council will meet on friday to

discuss the fighting in ethiopia. international calls up growing for an immediate cease fire. the u. s. envoy is an ad is not about to push for de escalation. fighters from the northern tigress region have taken towns and a highway leading to the capitol, prompting the government to declare a state of emergency. brianca looked to ripples. it's not the 1st call to arms spine if he had been leader, but this time it's against an enemy within a person. prime minister abbey amad used the 1st anniversary of the conflict, antigua to call on his citizens to fight and defeat the tiguan rebels. abram with africa until ethiopia is free and peaceful. this is the time every citizen has to say. i am in ethiopia and soldier to condemn this miss g. this plan, while standing next to the ethiopian national defense forces to humiliate the enemy late last year. if he'll be a national army with a strength in numbers and significant air,

paul pushed the t grind rebels into retreat. since july, the rebels had been making new gains and expanding the bottle from insight into neighboring, unheard of our region. the central day have now entered an unlikely alliance with the oral more liberation army, a band flint group from romeo region, home to few p s largest ethnic group when the federal military had to withdraw from pick right. in june after suffering significant battlefield losses. not really does seem to depleted the federal military. they've been on recruitment campaign since including and lifting these regional forces on militia. but ultimately, that means sending quite roll new recruits into battle. and that seems to have contributed to the fairly consistent gain by the great forces through eastern . i'm hora. the rebels are threatening to move the south towards addis ababa after

capturing to strategic handling on a major highway linking the northern teacher, i region with the capital to go with the teacher and leadership. it's highly unpopular mixed up because i was soldiers are not fighting alone. we should know that for sure, our forces will never surrender despite all that you might see on social media on satellite tv. we don't need to heed the advice of foreigners about how to deal with this conflict. this is our rule against those who attempt to enslavers the. the u. s. has been calling for immediate negotiations with our preconditions to end the conflict. it's allowing voluntary departure of some of its staff and their family members in the capitol because of escalating violence. washington has sent its special envoy for the horn of africa disappear and they're all to regional efforts to deescalate the gone. and president has called a meeting of the east african block to discuss the crisis. for no addis ababa

remains on edge as neither side shows any sign of backing down plank up there. i'll 0 in the chairs government has declared 2 days of national mourning for 69 people killed in an attack on a remote village. a convoy, led by a local mare, was ambushed near the borders of molly and became a fossil. the region is at the center of a conflict with groups linked to iso and al qaeda. europe has, once again become the epicenter of the coven 19 pandemic. that's the assessment of the world health organization, which says there are more infections there than in asia and africa. combined. cases are hitting record levels, especially in central and eastern europe. where vaccination rates alone, gender hole has mush. while many people around and about as if the cobit 19 threat has passed, the world health organization says the wider european region is once more at the pandemic epi center across $53.00 countries, including parts of central asia. there are 78000000 current infections. that's more

than the cumulative total of southeast asia, the eastern mediterranean, and all of africa. and it's a figure rising by a quarter of a 1000000 new infections daily with 3600 deaths every day. according to one, the label projection. if we stay on this trajectory, we could see another half a 1000000. gov at 19 bits in europe and central asia by the 1st of february next year. why is it happening in a region with generally good access to vaccines? the w h o points to waning immunity among those vaccinated 6 months or more ago. and vaccine hesitancy in countries like russia, where misinformation on social media has contributed to more than a 1000 virus deaths a day. there's also the relaxation of public health measures, england, for example, where mandatory restrictions were lifted in july is now responsible for around one

in 10 of all new infections worldwide. efforts to distribute booster jobs are being hampered by public apathy. yet the government is resisting calls from scientists to reintroduce precautions or risk and even more deadly winter. there is a glimmer of good news. the u. k. has become the 1st country in the world to license a new treatment for cove at 19 described as potentially game changing the anti viral pill made by us pharmaceutical company. merck has been shown to have the chances of dying or being hospitalized for those most at risk. of severe symptoms of the disease, this pill interferes with the viruses replication mechanisms. and by interfering with how it reproduces, it makes it make many mistakes. and by making many mistakes, it stops it from being able to reproduce properly. and that's how it works. but new treatments alone won't be enough to slow the renewed spread of the virus across

europe, among countries, some of whom believed until recently that it was all over jonah whole al jazeera. meanwhile, the by the administration has set a date for cobit 19 vaccination rules. the business is from january, 4th companies with a 100 or more employees will be required to ensure staff either vaccinated or tested. weekly. federal workers will not be allowed to opt out. firms in violation could be fined $14000.00. several republican governors say they'll challenge the mandate. alan fish as more from capitol hill in washington dc. essentially, if you've a company the employees, 100 people or more everyone has to be vaccinated. if there are employees who don't want to get vaccinated while they have to produce a negative test once a week, and the company doesn't have to pay for that test or come out of whoever decides not to get vaccinated, it'll come from their pocket. and when they're at work, they will have to wear a mask at all times, it doesn't apply to a few people, doesn't apply to health workers. there are no exceptions for them. every one has to

be vaccinated. if you're working in a designated health facility and federal workers as well, every one there has to be vaccinated, and that's very clear in the mandate. will there be challenges to this? of course, as well because it's america and 2021 attorney general's across the country. it already saying that the government is acting outside its own laws and it's doing something that is unacceptable. well, joe biden believes that the legal grounds for this mandate is absolutely rock solid . republicans were concerned that the government was insisting on these mandates, but from fortune also. rochelle were lensky whose head of the c. d. c. the centers for disease control. they said that with vaccinations and mandates, you saw the numbers of infections and the number of hospitalizations dropped dramatically. the cited the fight that united airlines told every one who was there, they had to be vaccinated. 99 percent take up and the number of infections way down . tyson's foods,

another big american food manufacturer. they also said there have to be vaccinations. 96 percent of the employees pushed through with that. so at the, by the administration believes that this is a useful tool in the fight against covered, and they're determined to push ahead talbot emissions are rebounding to levels not seen since before. the pandemic emissions are on track to rise by 4.9 percent this year. a new report was released just hours after deal to and the use of coal was announced the cop $26.00 climate summit. dozens of nations made new commitments. a china, india of the u. s. and australia haven't signed up to the deal. and with simmons reports now from the summit in glasgow, there is not one cat, sol, solution, but as a range of initiatives, they are quite ambitious. they don't, they do show promise. one, for example, is

a basic whole grouping of states. banks, financial institutions, a raft of other companies, all pledge to phase out the use of coal for making power within something like 10 years. that is the ambition. but that is something of a problem in the way of the poor countries finding the money to get renewables to replace the coal consumption. so what we're looking at is a plan to do it, but not necessarily any force to make it happen. and there are exceptions to, to this defeat, these pledges. one is china, china has not committed to the goals set by others at the united states hasn't signed up. but john kerry, at the u. s. special envoy on climate does say that they've already made

a commitment to solve the problem of coal out. this is what he had to tell al jazeera. we are committed to be carbon free in our power sector by 2035. and the president has committed that we will have only electric vehicles by 2035, no more internal combustion engine. so we're moving ahead very, very aggressively. but sir, critics do say that, so what's happening here is really not happening quickly enough. 2035 is too late, according to scientists, many scientists and also according to climate activists, are also there is the issue of people actually following through on pledges tougher . so break karen out 0 when we come back off the setbacks and key elections this week. as a new push and congress for votes on the bike, but ministrations agenda and conflict on climate change will tell you more about the twin crises. chad's capital farmers are facing every day more net sales.

a pretty small portion of the, of the population. due to some procedural loopholes are able to hold up this bill. and that is the reason why we haven't had action on this earlier. i think now that there is a greater need for this forge simply because it has been a long time, and people are seeing that the opposition to the bill just keeps sort of the keep moving the goalpost they keep coming up with different reasons. americans are getting frustrated because after all, this is an extraordinarily popular set of policies in these bills. not millions of people across india celebrating devali the festival of life since the 2nd devali since the pandemic began and festivities are still more low key than usual. some people are focusing on lighting their homes this year, instead of gathering in crowds. but the northern city of georgia has continued its reco, breaking tradition, lighting of a $900000.00 oil lamps to month return of the god rom from years. and
