a 100000 nurses walk off the job to find the better pay and working conditions. and on the lexia brian down on the dog house cornish where hundreds of people have been waiting to see the fee for will cop when his trophy. ah noticed 8 people have been killed as protests continue in peru, roads like the major pon, american highway in eco, have been blocked. a state of emergency has been declared and the army is being deployed some demonstrations want. the new president dena brought to resign and for new elections to be held there all so asking for the formerly to pedro castillo to be released. well, let speak to john holeman. he joins us now live from ega in southern peru. john, the last time we spoke, the barricades were coming down, but it doesn't look like the crowds of dispatched to gl.

no, there's a little bit the volatile situation here. actually. you can probably see the right place, the of them come as reinforcements. i'm basically a, we're in a state of emergency, as i think you mentioned here, emperor, which means that the police in the army can be deployed to sorts of, to, to encourage people to break these things up. there was a, a march for peace by people in white t shirts. a lot of the people here are coming from around the area and then what's called whole laterals that work him for a day out in the fields and i get paid by day. so i said basically like we still won't change, we still want this cold congress to be dissolved, we don't believe in it, but we have to go back to work because we haven't got enough money. this blockade has to stop. so they were trying to do the other people was saying, no, we've got to keep on going with this blockade, ex president pedro castillo at the moment, is being decided whether he's going to be imprisoned for long up before he goes to trial. there was a lot of conflict between the 2 groups and the police arrived at that moment to

basically try and persuade people to join in the peaceful march. now this is the sorts of microcosm of, i think, what's happening in different areas, especially in the south of peru, which is the boston of x president pedro castillo web roadblocks, in 50 different points at the start of today. what happening and where the police and army was saying that they were gonna try and dissolve those very blots and get them out the way. now this all started when x president pedro castille, you wanted to dissolve congress after they've moved to impeach him for the 3rd time . and he wanted to govern by an emergency government. now that's been code here, basically a to congress in turn then ordered for him to be detained when he was on the way to the mexican embassy. the charge is originally against him for his impeachment, with charges of corruption, heed cycle for about 80 minutes. this during his time in government, if he'd been accused of various enrichment at schemes during that time. now for the

people here, he really represents something else. he represents someone who came from a rural background, who was a rule teacher who was an indigenous person. and he finally arrived at the highest point in the country. they thought that he would do things for him. they see this is the congress stopping him repeatedly from being able to carry out his objectives and in the end, trying to get rid of him entirely. and that's why they're so angry despite a some of them saying that they lift the blockade and that sense of disenchantment with the political classes. and with congress predates this by a long time and he's gonna continue off with whatever happens today townhome and that live on the ground for us in e ken southern parade. thanks so much john. stay safe. hello opposition parties and to keep our rallying and support of the mer rivers stumble after court sentenced him to jail. for insulting public officials,

the trial focused on remarks that m m. m. all you had made during the, the mayoral race back in 2019. now if the appeals court upholds the verdict, it would prevent him from holding public office for the duration of the 2 year, 7 month sentence. and my mother is also seen as a potential challenge him to present recipe button in elections next year. a cynical theater has moved from that rally and a stumble. thousands of people gathered in front of his novel metropolitan municipality to show support for stumbled mayor at gram mom older. and it is a protest against the court decision, the which once the jail is stumbled mayor and impose a political bend. now what is next for a crown. mo, mo law is a matter of concern. and now a way for a court of appeals is open for him. at the next step is there, even the court of appeals up holds the verdict, the current that verdict then another way is open for him until the is supreme court decides in, in the opposite way until the final decision by the supreme court or criminal mo

lou has the legal right to stay as the mayor of istanbul and the political bad on him will not be imposed by many people. he are here who are mostly the main opposition party members, and people who voted for him are saying that the yesterday's court decision against a criminal moley is totally unlawful. well, tarika goes through is a professor of political science and international relations that if turnbull iden university, he says the mass imprisonment could affect the result of the general election. it's for sure that this particular event going to have some political consequences regarding the upcoming presidential and parliamentary elections. the opposition people are simply saying that the links between the government and the judiciary has been well established. so it will have been impossible for the judiciary to take such kind of a very important decision in a very important and why them are right now. but we also know that the government authority issue have the coke nice. the fact that this kind of an event will have

some repercussions in the upcoming election. so my own opinion is that the government has not been directly involved in such kind of a case because the final outcome will be very much is not in the interests. it's for sure because what happened in the past, present the out on was mayor of his stumble. he was put into prison just for the fact that he. busy planned for example, so this particular event had boosted his credentials to become. busy president prime minister and president of the country. so at the same time, how do you all might, it might, it was in the context of a mayor of the stumble, a criminal. so it would have been quite impossible to think that the government took a very important action in pushing the court members to take such kind of decision . but we all know that it is inevitable that this particular event will have some credit card consequences. now moving on and tens of thousands of nurses in the u. k

. are on strike in their 1st every national walk out nurses with a national health service, one and 19 percent pay rise as they face the cost of living crisis due to inflation . but the you have government says it can only afford 4.3 percent. john hall reports from oxford. ah, it's minus 8 degrees on the picket line outside oxford warn ford hospital. the nurses here undeterred this passing cars honk their support. they're joining colleagues across england, wales and northern ireland in the 1st strikes of their kind in the history of the national health service. a service that many say is on the brink of collapse. we've lost thousands and thousands and thousands of nurses during the pandemic. but pre pandemic campus pandemic, actually, the nursing profession has been chronically affected by our government and thing that happened in the world for a really, really long time. we met one of the nurses, rachel ambrose at home,

the day before the strike full time heating is no longer affordable. so when the children are out at school, it's freezing. she's been a nurse for 20 years and for much of that time, rachel says her salary has been stagnant or fallen in real terms, as the cost of living, particularly this year has gone up. well sir, from the summer we were average in about a $160.00 pound a month, and that was already an increase from that. a pricing clinic when tip and yeah, show up, it's nearly $400.00 pound. now, prices just keep going up and we're just expected to silhouette and it's, it's not physically possible. and so it's time that we took a stand. and yeah, well basically asking for what has been lost over the past 1015 years. and we just want a fair wage. gina, when asking for tweaks,

we're just asking and for a fair wage. so we can afford to continue working with nurses back on the picket line. the nurses say they regret the effect strikes will have all non urgent patient care. but they say the effective staff shortages caused by those leaving the service is worse than as is, are asking for 19 percent higher eyes or 5 percent above in place to meet face say a 20 percent fall in real terms, wages. in recent years, it's a negotiating position that the government so far isn't engaging with beyond around 4 percent currently on the table any more they say will have to be paid for in higher taxes. the support has grown as the day goes on. the nurses joined by representatives of other unions. it's not only health care that's on the pressure but railways, airports the border force, bus drivers, and more the government facing a winter wave of disruption. right across the public sector. joe,

to hold al jazeera oxford. now the mare of separatist held the netscape eastern ukraine says the city has suffered its heaviest shelling in years. the pro russia administration says 40 rockets launched by ukrainian forces if the city of allies. meanwhile, the mayor of cock you says that russia has launched more strikes on energy facilities there as well. the attacks have left millions in ukraine without regular access to power water or heat while they face sub 0 temperatures. when china is bracing for a serge uncovered 19 infections after the government scaled back its strict measures public fears amounting of a large outbreak. and that's undermining the hopes of an economic recovery. which had came the report from hong kong. there are a few signs of life that many shopping districts in the chinese capital fears of a looming covey 19 outbreak. keeping many people off the streets, mister chen belly sees any customers at his tea shop these days,

but he's holding out hope that business will bounce back. you can do. the damage will eventually go away. it will take some time, which i believe things will recover. step by step and my business will gradually improve the latest official economic data is less optimistic. for the 2nd consecutive month retail sales, summer, almost 6 percent on last year, investment and industrial growth. both slowed in november and unemployment rose to the highest since may policymakers a launching huge stimulus measures and pumping billions of dollars into the banking system. but analysts say it may take more than just money to spark and economic rebound. so there is a lot of fear in the country right now, so consumers, frankly, just are not willing to go outside to restaurants. a lot of parents are refusing to send their children to school because they're scared of the families catching cove it. so i think the economy isn't a very weak state, much weaker than most analysts realize. the sudden relaxation of long standing

pandemic restrictions has seen some shoppers stockpiling at supermarkets and pharmacies. i am very worried. the problem is i can't buy any medicine. now. what should i do if i get a fever? it's too risky to go out. the government is trying to reassure the public that everything is under control. it's boosting vaccine production, rolling out more booster shots for the elderly, and ordering hospitals to increase capacity at intensive care units. but international health experts say china's lack of exposure to the virus over the past 3 years. and it's low vaccination rate among seniors means there's a risk that around a 1000000 people could die as the country rapidly transitions out of 0 coven policy, which had kimber al jazeera hong kong. i'm still ahead here on out of there. really is parliament approve is a gas price cap and energy subsidies. the households and small businesses.

they want to see the officers responsible go to jail. while it's the final day in the u. s. africa family in washington dc. he does have been gathering for what's the biggest international meeting man since before the start of the private 19 pandemic. president joe biden has floated the idea of the african union having a permanent seat on the g 20. he's also expected to announce more than $55000000000.00 an investment to the continent for the next 3 years. comes after growing concerned about china and russia's influence in africa. while the international criminal court has upheld the conviction of a former ugandan rebel commander dominic on one had appealed against his 25 year jail sentence for war crimes. last year, judges of the hague, found him guilty of $61.00 offences and tuning, rape, murder, and sexual enslavement. over a 100000 people were killed by his rebel group, the lords resistance army in northern uganda, in the early 2, thousands where there has been more fighting between afghan and pakistani forces

to nuclear testing. what he called that eventuality, which of course has been echoed by officials here and south korea as well as the united states. now ahead of his visit, rashi did help local media here that there has been several indications on activity at the main nuclear testing site. couldn't get a specifically at 2 new tunnels, tunnel free and tunnel for all 6 previous nuclear tasks were conducted at tenants. one or 2 rossi also met with president units on the earlier today who requested for an impartial review of japan's readiness to release. treated was still tritium lays for a water from it's heavily damaged. we're pushing my diet, she nuclear plant, which according to level reports say could happen. could begin as early as next spring on estrella as putting a price cap on gas and coal as the tries to curb soaring prices. parliament has
