the demonstrations spread to the biggest city of murphy and president costume. joe must quiet authorized his forces to fire on, protested. without warning to guy. it says the anger against his government is being orchestrated by what he calls armed bandits. he's told rushes presence out of a fusion that while the situation is stabilizing, what he described as attacks were continuing more russian. that forces have arrived and see about 2 and a half 1000 soldiers. and there was some god in government buildings in the capital or so. tom, of course, there walker has more now from tbilisi in georgia on the significance of the detention of the former national security chief. what appears to be emerging is that kerry must seem of the head of the security services of cause it's gone. he was fired from his post early this week, but so was all of the government under the president. but now news emerging that he's been arrested and charged with treason, indicates that there appears to be

a political power struggle that has been going on in kazakhstan between president and the former president. no. so can, as by, of who, despite having handed over the presidency back in 2019, continues to wield significant power in the country and must seem of was one of his guys. now it seems that tough talk i have may have the upper hand having dismissed my theme of arrested my females and dismissed other figures from their rows including the former president as a buyer, who had the roll. it's head of the chairman of the security council. now it seems that the car has the upper hand and he's doing that. it appears due to his agreement, clear, the thrust out with vladimir putin who heads the security block that has been able so quickly to deploy to catholics dog. so having russian backing behind him appears to be a signal to all those in the political elite because it's don't that talk i,

if it's now the managed, really in charge in control of all the leaves of power in, in the country. ok, that's bring in us canada, killed by s. he is master of public administration at the li kwan you school of public policy. he joins us now from singapore. thanks for your time. what is the detention of the former national security chief tell you in terms of present to kind of stance towards that or by as i mean, the man who had picked him as success? well, thank you very much. this and use more for many people, or in a big surprise, frankly speaking, that was a, it's a very, there are some mysteries behind why protest the testers turned wayland. and the certainly the vacuum follow the damage in i'm a t on the night between the force and peace off china. we tells us a big story so that your flower, the entrance into the scene a while. and protesters and attacks by them on the, on the military, all the says,

municipalities and, and the shops, the looting appeared as well. so the choir actually sacked and fired my screen, my cmo, the head of intelligence service. and his deputy was a nephew all the 1st president. so this is, i think we can describe this as a power struggle at some point and attempt to could talk. but at the same time, there was a big, complex issue of governance and, and the social contract that has been broken, the instruction for security forces was to shoot to kill. will there be any consequences, it's kind of for taking such a heavy hand whoa, from what we see from what we have been seeing on the streets and people actually gather some don't have access to the internet fully. so there are 2 views. one is

that initially started as the peaceful progress and a legitimate one against corruption against a for the justice, for political reforms. good demands have been in the air for many years. so there and there was another group of people who are using violent messrs. and present a car was actually mentioning, been around them, whole protest, but now his marshall low. so present a cry asks everybody to stay at home, you know, to understand who are the main characters who are violating and attaching bear me government solutions. ok, so i, as i say, want to clarify you talking about, you know, violent obviously that the pretend the protest started out piece delayed is what we've heard from people on the ground and turned violent. we've seen the pictures. who are these people who are carrying out this, this violence because what we're hearing are from to cry of is it, this is armed,

bandits. i mean, who are these people who are causing all the chaos on the streets? are these protests is, are these just people who are angry at the state of their country? well, ok. so put the profile where a clear profile always seem to have lost the line there with that is conduct a kill by of my apologies. and that was, is, can there a copy of that from the li kwan you school of public policy on kazakhstan, ok, moving on at least 56 people have reportedly been killed in an air strike in ethiopia . is northern to dr. region. according to aid work is the strike had a camp for the internally displaced people in the town of did it now they are trained border. the attack comes, as the ethiopian government announced it was reducing a number of high profile for the prisoners, including members of the to grind,

go into effect next saturday. then the u. k. the health minister is warning that the national health system is facing or rocky, a few weeks ahead. so g g says the number of hospital admissions in england is on the rise, especially among the elderly old brandon joyce, now live from london pool. so despite those hospital admissions though, the u. k. thank for now, full boost is needed. why is that? well, they've been analyzing data, and this is the ongoing campaign by scientists and policy makers to try to work out what the best course of action is. what they've found from looking at the data from crunching the numbers from the testing regime and from the hospitals. is that those who have had the booster, the 3rd jab of the current virus faxing? 3 months later, they still have around 90 percent protection against hospitalization of severe symptomatic infection. that's particularly for the over 65 year old, so very vulnerable group. now that's not to say you're not going to get coven.

certainly after 3 months, protection against mild symptoms does go down so to around 30 percent. but the, the fact is that that is more likely to be treatable at home and not to put any pressure on the u. k. national health service. so what the policy makers and the j c v i the joint committee on vaccines and immunization or saying based on this data, is that whereas some countries in the world, israel is a good example. we're looking actively at a 4th jab, a 2nd booster. if you like, the u. k. doesn't seem to wanting to go down that route. the data seems to suggest that the policy makers on the medics would be better looking at getting those people who've either not had one job or 2, or the booster looking at them, getting them fully boosted up. and that would be the most effective way of using the doses that they have. i thank you for that. sample burnett fly for us in london . and the only con variant has pushed the number of cover 19 hospitalizations up in

the us and health favorite regulators rather say more children under the age of 5 are being admitted. my kind of joins us now live from washington, d. c. mike. so even though on the coin appears to be more mild, the share number is all the infections and pushing hospitals there to the brink. what more can you tell us? the deed. yes. because there's a conflict of events going on over here. the increase in the case slow driven by the on the kron variant, the incredibly infectious on the chron variant, along with the fact that a number of hospital workers have been infected, reducing the number of available workers. these factors come together to put an m and strain on the u. s. hospital system. and the number of people hospitalized has risen sharply since last december, when there was some 80000 per day. now it's in the region of 135-214-0000. so

this is a sharp increase which together with the shortage of health workers because of infections is a massive problem for you as hospitals. but there is an issue here as well. and that is that the data is not that clear at present. and one of the reasons for this is that separating out those who go to hospital incidentally as those who go to hospital with cupboard is a major difference. and governor of new york pointed out yesterday that 42 percent of those in new york state being hospitalized were incidental. in other words, they were hospitalized for other reasons. and with then found to have had covered in subsequent tests. so these are the kind of factors that make reading the tea leaves in terms of how the variant is impacting on the health system. very difficult indeed. wow, 42 percent that, that so that's a surprising number. and mike, i also want to talk about about the their centers for disease control, the c d c. and it's guidelines because it's been changing. it's guidelines right.

and then there's got some people riled. what's going on? well, there appears to be something of a disconnect in recent months between the biden administration and its covert task force. and the cdc, which is a part of the code with task force, but the head of the cdc, the director rachel will. lensky held a news conference yesterday in which she said that she would now be having regular news briefings. now, she has not had a solo news conference in some 6 months currently. now she is attempting to get the cdcs message across as opposed to that of the administration as a whole. now this is problematic, given the fact that there's been much criticism of cdc action not least lead, reducing the quarantine period from 10 to 5 days. and even then not demanding a test before people leave quarantine. these are issues that have become a point of major discussion. the cdc director now attempting to take the offensive

and put her own views out unbridled by the wider administration health o advice. i my candidate for some washington d. c. thank you. south african president, sara ram. a poster says the governing african national congress party needs to be renewed and rebuilt. it was addressing a celebration of the agencies, $100.00 and 10th anniversary. several issues continued to tarnish the parties image, including allegations of corruption. earlier just this week, and inquiry found that state decisions made on the former president jacob zimmer, were influenced by private interests. not only was states capture a systematic attempt at sy, funding off public resources and funds. it also destroyed the capability of the state and led to the departure of paperwork people from public institutions. as they resist that stage, capture them were fired,

some were forced to resign. let's take a closer look at the history of the amc party, which was founded in 1912 as the south african native national congress. its primary objective was to oppose white minority rule and to end the apartheid system . decades later, nelson mandela brought the policy to power in 1994 when he was elected president in the country's 1st and aquatic election. the amc has been reelected since then, but support for the policy has declined in recent years because of allegations of corruption and deep divisions among its leaders. are at that spring, and melanie fellwood, she is a political analyst and form a member of parliament for the agency under president nelson mandela to join us on scott from cape town. thanks so much for your time. what do you make all we have through or i'm opposed to saying that the agency, paul, he needs to be renewed and rebuilt. what does that say to you about the state of

the agency right now? well the ane see is street clearly been struggling and so very, very different party from the 1994 party. and as you righty, sitting your introduction, you know, have struggled with corruption, state captured cetera. at the moment the party is struggling organizationally and they have struggled with a structures they branches. and there was a structure financially struggle financially tremendously because of some new law that came in around quality political funding. but they've basically been bankrupt and not been able to pay their workers for a very long time. and then of course, they also have, as you have mentioned, this factional in fighting with those who stole support and presidents in my it is suddenly become less significant in the last few months. but it certainly still there. and those who opposed i'm opposed, makes his life very difficult and they, for, we saw in the last local government election, certainly a decline in support for the a and c. m. although it was not that it was interesting that research research

showed us that voters didn't go to another party. they just didn't turn up to vote . okay. you were, as we said, an agency and pay under president nelson mandela who's integration, obviously a momentous occasion for the country and, and for the party. what was in like in the a and c back then and, and how does it differ to the agency of today? oh, well, it was extraordinary. it was of course, the hey, day of the a and c, m and a now some adela. and of course then you know, the 1st democratic elected parliament in south africa and they did their leadership caliber and also caliber of m. p 's that were electra were extraordinary. of course they were all people who did not think that they would ever end up in parliament more likely will be killed by this of the party forces. so they were 2 servants of the people which is unique. and of course like any liberation movement. the agency has struggled to make that transition over the last and 2025 years from

a liberation movement to a majority party. but it was, it was extraordinary. but as, as we've mentioned, the issue is that in the last name particularly, and the zoom, things changed tremendously and it was very damaging to the country. and so they ought to be a and c. o has the agency lived up to or perhaps not lived up to the promises of the original found is there and the promises and the hopes of 1994. i will, i think people would even in the a and c and even any speech today at the 100 and 10th birthday celebration of the and see the president acknowledged that they have not been able to live up to the vast majority of, of promises and of course done well in terms of democratizing the country of the fact that the majority of people now have a say in this country that is all very significant. and we mustn't forget that. and also way we would have been if that, that didn't happen. if the answer hadn't taken over, but of course in terms of economic transformation in terms of the distribution of

wealth, even things like land, the agency is not done very well. and that is of course, something that would work. the majority of people in this country righty so very much. and melanie fo would thank you very much for your time. 90 forward. there are a former member of parliament for the agency and the president nelson mandela, still had air on al jazeera colors. the important thing is, is that what we is, why year ubs, tattoo artist fare for their future. and then the grips of a mega rouse that could lead the americas 13 year dry spell to come the new normal . there's a lot of finger pointing going on. a lot of blaming going on, but i can show you our team has done an unbelievable job. the head is tennis, australia. praises is organization and elect video on the coming on the fire for the know that talk of edge visit ah

and around l. matty. we spoke to a number of coke as dani citizens have passed through the border crossing point behind me. they described the intensive security presence across the cities and streets of kazakstan, extensive search and erased operations have not been interrupted with a total of 4 and a half 1000 people detained. so far. the cook hassan is we spoke to confirm that they themselves had been searched and their passports verified. otherwise they would have been detained. it should be noted that the former president nurse will turn as a buyer, who has been absent from the political scene is confirmed to be in the capital, according to his press office. he's called on the people to stand by the side of the incumbent president to cave, to brave through the current crisis, and maintain the countries unity. in addition, it's been announced that next monday will be a national day of mourning. me and mars military will they say that extended a sci fi with ethnic armed groups and a bit to end the conflicts. griffing, the country and a meeting with cambodia as prime minister,

it was announced that the seas thought due to end next month, will remain until the end of the year. cambodia is leading diplomatic efforts up to last year's military coup. some see the talks as legitimizing the armies rule. 3 white men have been sentenced to life in prison for the murder of black jogger in the us state of georgia. the judge said 2 of them, father and son, would spend the lifetime without the possibility of parole. a mad aubrey was hunted down while he was out for a run in the most white neighbourhood in 2020 chat baton receivables. this was the verdict, ahmed aubrey's family. had hoped for that his life plus 20 travis look. michael and his father gregory give him the maximum sentence for murdering 25 year old aubrey. after chasing him through a georgia neighbourhood in february of 2020th william roddy brown, who joined him, the chase was given a mandatory murder sentence of life imprisonment, but with the possibility of parole. after 30 years, the judge said that he, unlike his co defendants,

had displayed some remorse. all 3 can appeal their sentences, but also face a federal hate crimes trial. next month said before the sentencing members of aubrey's family begged their case. and man who killed messiah santa news court wrong. ever sudle dated neck for his father. ah no, get their chair. a seat next to my saw elbow again. and i'll breeze mother addressed her son directly. i made a promise to you. to day a lady caress. i told you i love you. and some day somehow i will get to justice. the presiding judge said he thought deeply about the case even paused in silence for a minute to suggest how long aubrey had been running in fear of his life before he was murdered. a fraction of the time that

a mod armory was running in satilla shores and rendering his verdict. the judge alluded to the racial fault lines of this community in the deep south. i argue that may be neighbors. more than the people who just own property around your house. i believe that is also believe that in assuming the worst in others we show our worst character outside the court aubrey's mother, thank those who supported her family and made reference to one of the most shocking moments of the trial. when one of the prosecutors alleged her son was on a victim, but a criminal quotes with no socks to cover his dirty tow. now, the long toenail that she bought the argument and she she failed and mentioned that amount was lying up in the middle of the row with a big hole in the chit outside the court celebration of the accountability for the murder of a black man by white men in the south, too many of them still haven't gotten anybody arrested for killing their child. so

this is about all of us. no more, no more. no more. but it should be remembered that in the altima of aubrey's killing, the police and local authorities did nothing excepting the word of those now convicted of murder. that aubrey had been up to no goods. only when video evidence was released, weeks later, did state authorities act. she ever times the al jazeera j window. gordon is a trial tardy. he says, the aubrey sentencing, that's an example for all cases dealing with racial justice. got the new press to that or killing an african american race. so that extent we are very pleased with the outcome. i don't know, it was really going to turn the pain on the racial injustice in our system. but it definitely set a new cross to that. and that's what we look forward to. we should try to repeat this one bit like this person. i repeat the same types of outcomes and paper

bigger and for the other factions in that community, even in our country, that no matter what the facts are, they are immune to hold their own accountable for injustice use this. so this early, it really turns the corner like, ok who let at least the world understand that there are some good these women being facts and evidence in faith and make a determination based upon those facts. and that evidence and matter on prejudices and passions. and to that extent, i'm very proud of the jury and very happy about it. the way it turned out outcome is what the sentence is from the since it's in jersey, because off times you, you will get a verdict, but you won't get a sentence that reflects the gravity of the car. in this case, we got

a burdick and a sentence that we looked at the gravity of the car. and that's something that we don't see very often. egyptian palestinian activist had been detained in egypt for more than 2 years. as arrived in france. family shop was released on thursday before being deported. it was the co founder of the pro palestinian in egypt and was accused of having ties with an outlaw group. chance was forced to renounce his egyptian citizenship as a precondition for his release. 2 and a half years later, i still have all my dissolved and my determination to continue. i am continuing my way. i am assisting on freeing my friends and my comrades in from egyptian jail. i'm insisting on human rights in egypt and insisting for a free palestine. i am insisting that this will continue and they will not stop us through what happened. a number of covered 19 related deaths in mexico has passed.
