oh, i ah, this is al jazeera ah, hello, lauren taylor. this is down here and use our live from london coming up. the un calls for the immediate release of 16 of its staff who have been arrested in ethiopia, capital hundreds of migrants, and refugees. left freezing at the poland beller res border. where the ear says the better russian president has neared them with gangster star tactics and warnings. they're still a mountain to climb at cop $26.00,

and i say current sledges would still see the world heading for $2.00 degree temperature rise. in sport, england's world cup forget captain has reacted to the racism scandal engulfing the countries. domestic game or in morgan says the issue is a serious relevance. has anything his side is achieved on the page? ah, the beginning is your peer where the u. s. says 16 of its local staffers have been detained in the capital at december, and it's working with the government to get them released. 6 other, you and workers were also detained, but have now been freed. as far as i know, no explanation given to us by why these are the staff members are, are detained. i'm the there are 16 remaining in

detention and 6 have been released so that that's the, the breakdown they come from, various un agencies, they're all national staff. it is imperative that they, that they be released in multiple attic efforts to stop by your peers. conflict escalating into a full blown civil war, a gathering pace, the african union envoy under sagan, over sandra, has traveled to the em horror and afar regions. the rebels from antique rye in the countries north hertford glanced closer towards the country's capital. they've been seen in the town of kimmy say about 300 kilometers from addis ababa. the african union is also mediating between the government and rebel forces to withdraw troops and gets humanitarian access into te gray, where there's a crippling shortage of food. and few un says nearly 400000 people are living in famine like conditions. the federal government is accused of blocking age as get more from mike hannah at the united nations. what else of the you and said about

the detention rest off, mike? or want to stay to the beginning that the un saying there's major communications problems with that. as abas are very difficult to collate at information, the secretary general spokesman has spoken to security personnel on the ground. he confirms the fact that initially some 22 people were arrested, all our national employees of the united nations. subsequently 6 were released, but along with those detained are an undisclosed number of dependence. so the exact number who've been arrested is not very clear. now, the 16 who've been arrested some says the un have already been visited in prison. representations are being made to the ethiopian government, how to gain the release of those being held, and also to find out why they were imprisoned in the 1st place. now this is a question that the un cannot explain at the stage i, there was some speculation in media reports that the $22.00 were arrested as part

of a wider government clamp done on members of the ethnic t gray group. however, this cannot be confirmed. we put the question directly to the un, they cannot confirm that that is the case. so at the moment they still remain more questions and answer the only certainty is that some 16 un personnel remain in detention in ethiopia. my can, i thank you very much. 100 o has more from madison around diplomatic efforts to come attentions and get to my play to the teacher i region all these efforts, the 1st priority they want to achieve is to get aid to those who need it most more than 400000 people in the ticket i region who are living in farming likes tuitions, according to the you and no aid has entered the ticket region since mid last month

. and many people are trying very much to get this aide as quickly as possible. oh, so going about san jose, the african unions, envoy to the horn of africa said that you will have a plan by the end of the week for negotiations. and the 1st thing he wants to see is a humanitarian corridor opened towards a gray and also for armed militias and defense forces, thicken as far away as possible from the main roads leading to to grey. so it is still a walk in progress. the african union commission is leading mediation efforts between the federal government to another set of a and the tick ryan rebels. i'll be speaking to rest as j. m. wing chair, the former vice chair of the union about how peace can be achieved. the biggest challenge at the moment is, 1st of all, just to stop this hostilities. then the 2nd one is to bring your material assistance and the 3rd one to bring them to the table so that they will then be

able to negotiate, to without bloodshed. and in your view, i mean the tiguan rebels are heading towards that is have a, they say they're on their way that do they have the fire power to take in the country? i think that is not going to be a nice sale for cover kind of thing that best road for them at the moment is for of are negotiated settlement of the crisis and then a full armed a conflict because you know that, that a nova, i dis about by so difficult and it, but trend too much there is going to be a little odd way. where do you think the weapons and the supplies are coming from for this conflict that is continuing in this way? that is a $1000000.00 question. it's possible that some of decimals is what are the t a d p, a letter managed to secure from the previous arrangement when it was an

integrated i, me and some of it to when that to and they moved to a mckaylin, they may have left with their me, but it's also possible amid that is talk over fuel. oh, countries perhaps from the, the middle east that out is supplying. and it could be even some of the advanced countries that have but one house into gordon evidence at the moment. the un sir political chief, richmond county, has said that there is, can you hear from descending into widening civil war? is any too real? would you agree with that assessment? course, wendy over as truce in lake what is preferred in the challenge? as you can see from the south or amir, or wanting to churn, the take the right. and that is sending really chipping signals. and, and i think that's one of the aspects that must be addressed so that we don't allow a group so, so to study matching or wendy of our graces because a crisis, no,

no muggy, mutates to another crisis. and so, whereas one cannot rule that out, but if you look at from the demonstrations that took place in that is above the proposition seems to be behind the government at the moment. and so the government should be able to address that situation quickly. what about the regional kind of and the start of the conflict? i mean, do you think that the prime minister it was a miscalculation on his part to try and attacked? he cried. you think that in retrospect, and that was a mistake? and if so, where does he find a kind of face saving device to, to get out in this situation. whatever that case, i think that's not reach under the water. we now have a conflict at us up and, and i think what do we need? because if we start to go back and the voice that it wouldn't start, or it's not going to serve the crisis or to hand list, bring the issues that are in or causing this crisis and look at them and try to address them. fortunate that it's your peer house in its course dish and provision

to allow for federalism, which is therefore self determination. all this should be put on the table and allow full fresh discussions so that if you pick and find the last thing solution. coming up on this news are from london. dangerous, small guns, toxic foam, and pollution and waste to create environmental hazards across india. a half a $1000000000.00 legal wind for johnson and johnson, a u. s. court over turns a major o pure ruling against the pharmaceutical giant and his sports and bad news for this world cup winner. and he will be here with that story. ah. the temperature sitting on freezing at the border of poland and bella luce and is expected to drop well below 0 over night. hundreds, possibly thousands of people from the middle east. afghanistan and africa. a

currently stuck there huddled around campfires, their migration west across europe, blocked by poland. extra polish troops had been deployed to the area after migrants tried to cut through the razor wire fence on monday. the border guard says more than 300 attempts to cross the border, had been made. heather pollen says the migrant say under the control of bell russian armed units. it fails the minute she could provoke a violent incident. i came, the batteries defense ministry has dismissed as an unfounded accusation. the european union says better is his president, alexander lucas shanker, is uring people through false promises of easy entry to europe as part of an inhuman gangster style approach. or challenge report. i was going in the middle of every humanitarian crisis. there are always human faces. and these are the children, women and men stuck in a deadly stand off on the poland. better roost border thousands and now in makeshift camps along the razor. wire humanitarian group say they're lacking food

and medicine. social media footage from recent days shows several 100 refugees and migrants, escorted by masked bella russian security. heading towards poland. the large numbers of escalated a crisis. it's been boiling for many weeks. this family says it's kurdish, the grandmother isn't well, they're lucky enough to have found their way into poland after 2 weeks in the forest. but what's next for them isn't clear, according to the refugee charity watching them be escorted away by puerto gods. we can never be certain what happens with the people that lead with that we offer help in the for us because the polish authorities are breaking the law and a convention they offend. send them back to villarejo, even though they apply for international protection here. for months, thousands of been entering the e. u via bella. ruth,

at 1st through lithuania and latvia, now mainly through poland. the e u accuse is better. russian leader, alexander lucas shanker. of orchestrating ways of migrants and refugees, and retaliation of the sanctions imposed on his government for violent crackdowns on the opposition to what he accuses. poland of military intimidation brought the subordinate pro to me grant the earlier part of them. women. so, fighting migrants with tanks today, well, excuse me, with my we both have the military background. we understand that being in a war with these poor people on the polish bella, russian border and moving in tank columns with it's obvious that it has some sort of drill a hole, intimidation, of course we face it without anxiety. we kind of stuff according to a for you. on monday, poland said it had withstood attempts by migrants to force their way across the border. prime minister mateusz more of etzky, has been visiting troops,

versions of them. summations with amazon, who would think to 3 months ago that we will be dealing with actions that are characterized by the use of human shields. lucas shank has regime uses civilians as weapons in a hybrid war. what we can see today are new methods, and you are a passing against the nova. germany is urging e u. member states to do more so far, there's been little coordinated action from you, though that might be change a president coined on member states to approve extended sanctions against the bela russian authorities. and she also announced the exploration of measures against that country. airlines that are active in human trafficking. several people along the border have already died from exposure. there could be many more to come, rory, talents out as era. dominic cane is in berlin and has more on the ease reaction. the e. u has been responding to the situation on that frontier between pillars and poland

with expressions of solidarity for the polish governments from different levels and at the highest level at the e that's from president or sarah font, a lion who said that she wants to see tougher sanctions against belo, russian officials, including the president lucas shanker. she's also said that she believes is her words that the government in minsk is instrumental ising. refugees and micros, in other words, is using those people on that border as an instrument of their foreign policy playing out those people's lives against the european union. and she has had some degree of support from other ministers in different governments of member state. certainly here in germany, the interior minister, the caretaker, a terry minister jose offer has applauded the approach of the polish government in

so far as the erection of a fence along that frontier is concerned to see also that the lithuanian parliament has enacted a state of emergency for its stretch of frontier that it shares with belarus. so very clearly you have the european union, both in brussels, but in other members stood in member states to expression solidarity with those governments who are having to reckon with what's being what with what they're facing on their borders with belarus. the thing to take from the e u wants to preserve the openness of its inner hopes to do that by bolstering the controlling and securing of its outside borders. specifically with yellows. one is the speak to your henny under a chick editor in chief of voices from belarus. he joined us by skype from warsaw. thanks very much for being with us. i just want to go back to that to the people on the border itself. how do they get there in 1st place?

hello, thank you for inviting me today. so people bore your actually, this is not the 1st time when people are trying to grow their border. but the thing that happened yesterday is a little bit unique because we have information that migrants they tried to cross the border in the legal way. so they gathered and they went to the official checkpoint. official border checkpoint was passport control in order to legally cross cross this border. however, dilution of thought reduce security forces. they didn't allow them to go through those checkpoints and move them to the forests where there is a border offense. so you think they and how do they get they would put him in buses . what, how to get to this other illegal checkpoint? actually when we talking about this border crossing, it's organized in such

a way that's sion, government, or some tour to films which we are working with migrants. they're organized in special transfer, special buses, which may transfer those migrants to. ready the forest to the borderlines. but the thing that happened yesterday, my grants, they the number of migrants that they moved to the border of the bird taxi. but by themselves, if they didn't refuse an entry which it has been, what the procedure on, on the battery side would they theoretically be allowed to stay in betters? actually, we do not see. and now any actions of, from the blue ocean side, because actually there are lots of people and there are a lot of women and children, and probably they are not happy with staying between born

years. it's called and there is no food and water probably they have such intention. but from the video and from the sources, we could clearly see that the site. now there are no tele when the people to go back to bella. they do not want the migrant to come back probably in the future. if the situation the tensions we will increase we, we may expect. so, but actually it will, it is difficult to say what we can expect from the current government of billers, which organize the dos migration flows and activities. and what about it, and then it wish man, russian people themselves what, what do they think about this? actually it's, it's, it is difficult to say because there are some opinions on this matter. so some

people in bella was there or not so the majority of people are not supporting the actions of our government. so they're not supporting the things that my grand to go to brother was and they're not satisfied with this. and of course, ah, they, they know what's, that's, this is organized by the government and they, they should it so like, is it the they should manager this but of the think is that government or do not, does not have support from the people and actually m r migrants, unfortunately, are associated to wis the government. and ah, people see those migrants on the streets because the majority of my grand do not have an access to the hotels. there are sleeping on the streets and people are just

satisfy it to his with this. thank you very much. neater don't as you honey and a check. thank you. thank you. i now i must say their pledges countries are made at cop 26 to tackle climate change this decade would still need to 2.4 degrees celsius temperature rise this century. as far more than the $1.00 degree limit, they've committed to some $140.00 countries covering 90 percent of global emissions and announced targets to cut those emissions. but the climate action track, a group says many of the pledges, lack practical detail, and short term plans. we are making progress at cop $26.00, but we still have a mountain to climb over the next few days. and what has been collectively committed to go some way, but certainly not all the way to keeping 1.5 within reach. the gap in ambition has narrowed. mal,

the world needs confidence that we will shift immediately into implementation. that the pledge is made here will be delivered, and that the policies and investment will swiftly follow. the european union has pledged a $115000000.00 to un fun to for developing nations most affected by climate change out. there's andrew simmons is in glasgow and has this update on the talks. you mentioned in your introduction, the a $150000000.00 from the european union. that is aimed at really as a poor countries that have really been hit hard by a climate change. it is, would seem at 1st sight generous, but as a colossal, a mouth needed for these countries. and they are bringing a lot of anger to the whole process in a position where you have to see at the end of the week, a consensus decision amongst the maybe 200 parties involved in, in comp. they will have to come up with what is known as, as a, as a, as like a,

a cover document which is effectively a communicate. but it's key that they can get there without any further fighting. and the pressure is on as of this moment. chilly is one of several countries leading the way in producing sustainable energy sources, et cetera sites on becoming a world leader in producing green hydrogen, which many believe will replace fossil fuels at a competitive price. i left america salisia newman, of course, from colina in chinney. it's colorless, odorless and tasteless and its everywhere. hydrogen is one of the world's most abundant elements. a plentiful source of energy, lighter and more powerful than lithium and oil, can be used to fuel large vehicles like airplanes, and ships or to power heavy industry like mining. but the challenge is to replace

conventional fossil fuels with hydrogen without using contaminating energy sources to make it. this is no ordinary forklift. it's the was 1st to be run on green hydrogen produced right here at the last thought. the last copper plant near chillies capital. if a mover to see alyssa from the center, this is very similar to a petrol station, and the time it takes to fill the vehicles very similar as well. green hydrogen is produced by separating hydrogen molecules from h 20. in other words, water through a process of electrolysis, it only emits water vapor, no c o 2. and this is the 2nd part of the equation, the ability to generate enough sustainable energy as they're doing here to make the production of green hydrogen really worth while. and that to a country like chilly because of its geographic conditions has an enormous advantage. at least 50 percent of the cost of producing green hydrogen is renewable

energy. but for chile, that's not a problem. we have the highest solar radius on the planet in the other comma, the sit in the no, i'm the best winds on the world of the world in the south, in by that is in by the owner. so capacity factors in for solar p v in the north, our 3rd to 7 percent. that compares we 25 percent in saudi arabia or that and spain and in the south. and we might arianna's capacity factors for wind are over 60 even 70 percent versus few 5 percent in the north sea. for example, for all the energy ministry calls green hydrogen, the missing link to carbon neutrality. vickers. but this is so special. why aren't other countries already doing it? so it's a technical issue any longer is a financial economic issue of a former environment minister, mozilla mina, is adamant that it's up to chillies government to produce the incentive. as it did

a decade ago, to dramatically reduce the cost of solar energy. you either put a price on carbon, or you subsidize the investment, but without neither of these working you will simply not have the large scale projects that we anticipate. in chili's patagonia porch seamans and intel green power have joint forces to build the world's 1st fully integrated facility to produce carbon neutral fuels with wind power to make hydrogen. but it's not expected to produce more than 55000000 liters by 2024. to make an export green hydrogen as cheaply as conventional fuel by the year 2050, which is the government goal will require not just small plants like this one, but gigawatt size facilities. in chile, that will mean negotiating, a multi national accord between the public and private sectors, costing about $50000000000.00. but it could be a small price to pay to transition to what may be one of the world's best options

for dramatically reducing greenhouse gases and global warming. without limiting the consumption of energy. the sea and human al jazeera colina kitty to this president has been impeached over claims. he favored the sale of a family property while in office and sebastian pierre, i will now face a senate trial over whether he should be removed. the vote to impeach received the minimum $78.00 votes needed in the chamber of deputies, aftermath and 20 hour session is unlikely to be asked by the senate, where the opposition has only $24.00 of the 29 votes needed to remove a president. the accusation stems from publication of the so called pandora papers, which reveal the offshore financial dealings of prominent figures around the world . was more still to come this hour including cove. it was converted in several indian states to cope with the major's by in dang, cases, liberia's, drugs battle and speak to

a former warlord. now fighting to protect children from traffickers and sport will hear from some of the world's best tennis players. as they get ready to impress at their season ending tournament, ah hello there. let's have a look at the weather across europe over the next few days. and it remains very stormy in the south. it's wintery up in the north, but we are still seeing a lot of fine and dry weather across those central areas. but for wednesday, we got strong winds and snow pulling into western parts of norway, pushing across sweden and onwards the baltic states and western russia. that's going to be snow in moscow through the weekend. for the south of this, it is looking a lot finer and dryer temperatures are on the up across ukraine and romania and remains relatively mild. so much of greece and turkey as that winter weather pushes

off the east. now it's a similar story for the northwest. we've got mild but mixed conditions for britain and ireland. a mixture of showers, showering spells and sunshine, here. but for the really wet and windy weather we have to head to the south west. we've got storm black that's plaguing the western mediterranean, bringing some very windy conditions as well as heavy rain to places like the belly, eric islands, as well as some parts of italy, sicily on sardinia as well as corsica. but it's not only here, it's also the north of africa. we are going to see those showers, affecting coastal areas of algeria, that she, whether update ah, [000:00:00;00] with christmas class,

where your privacy is paramount to experience relax in your own private space. take care of everything. that's already weighs and lines you can rely on. most people will never know what's beyond the storm. the deafening silence of 100000 balls. how it feels to touch danger every day. most people will never know what it's like to work with. every breath is precious, with fear is not an option. but we're not most people

lou ah, and one of the top stories here al jazeera, vc up in government, says it's detained. 16 un staff under the country's new state of emergency because of their quote participation in tara, the u. n. is calling for their immediate release thousands of migrant stock on the berries border amid plunging temperatures, blocked by polish troops from entering the you. poland, as people are being ushered over the border. i bet a russian armed units. and analysts say the pledges countries have made cop $26.00 to tackle climate change this decade would still lead to a $2.00 degrees celsius temperature rise the century. that's far more than the 1.5 degree limit they promised india's taj mahal has been shrouded in smug
