live for us. actually, she may not be live for us right now. let's instead let these pictures freeze and speak for themselves. as you can see, situation remains, there is a live pictures coming in from paris. that is a cluster of policemen. and the other end of them were on the stand a protest this or i just letting you hear the sounds coming in from the streets of paris. they can hear in the background. some chance of the protest is assumed li, a lot of people, quite angry after this attack close to with her dish cultural center that's left 3 people bed and the police saying that the suspect was previously

investigated for another incident ascribed as a racist attack. now this hand, it seems like we're just at the stage of hearing a lot of screens, but police are holding that position. moments ago though, we did see what looked like objects to be on fire in the streets of paris. we saw people looking around with sticks, a lot of angry going to let you take in these pictures, very go. you why i believe we

do now have a correspondence. natasha butler. natasha. if you can hear me. just talk us through . what spin a we see is a large group. all part of ties from paris is kind of just community gathering behind me that very upset. they're very angry because of the shooting that took place a few hours ago. now here in this district, a shooting that took place on the street outside a head dressed as a restaurant, but also a co dish community center. now police have arrested a suspect in connection with that shooting. but what the people here behind me is saying is that they feel that the shooter was targeting members of the purchase community. they say they don't feel protected, they're very upset and angry. and what they've been doing is burning things behind me. you've probably seen some smoke. the police have since moved in because he was

getting quite violent. rocks were being thrown. people were having to close their shops, restaurants, say, because they were quite worried about what was going to happen. and we need to obviously, natasha, be very careful in a fluid situation like this. but the, the impression that one gets is that there is a sense amongst the protests is that their community was being deliberately targeted is, is that the impression or the, the sense that the protesters are all sending without sony how they feel? and that sony, what they say, but what that the lease and the french interior minister was saying is that at this stage, they don't know what the most of ations were, who the government, they have arrested a suspect, as i've said to 69 year old frenchman he was in previous years, most notably in 2021. he was actually charged with racist violence because he tried

to attack some people out of mike and camp in the center of the city. but in terms of what happened today, the shooting that took place tragically in the center of the city, at least 3 people dead, many injured or what police and the french interior minister all saying is at this stage, they really don't have any motivation for the attack the french interior minister though has said that 3 police protection will be insecurity, will be boosted at various coaches, community sites, around frauds, because communicated community a feel that they would talk to them this attack. but, but as i said, that is not clear. it hasn't been confirmed as you're talking towards natasha. i should point out on the right side of the screen, the picture. what looks like something's been clearly sat on fire in the streets. they're all the police in control. what kind of security posture are they taking? are they calling in reinforcements, or is this really the end of it? and it's dying down i think is the and then is dying down

and, and look, i mean, of course, these sorts of things can often often look as they, not necessarily all on the ground from a far what we've seen, a protest is setting fire to things in a street, a street very near without shooting took place earlier because they were very upset . they were very angry. some of them started out throwing rocks and things into the air. that's why we had to move way little bit earlier for our own safety hazard. other people that were here, of course, on the football, the police have now moved in. they have to move in with their shields and try to push those protesters away and they shun. so, i mean, i think you can probably see as well as i can, that smoke is now going down. a lot of people have less area. there was a moment simply when many of those demonstrators felt particularly upset. and there was a moment where there was a certain amount of bonds in the street that the police seem to have dealt with for the time being. but people so milling around the still standing here. they still

don't quite know what the situation is. little bit tense and anxious people looking out to the windows to see what's happening in honey. all right, thank you so much, natasha bottler. let's bring in an good chelly. she's a former french diplomat and is currently a consultant out political risk consultancy. she joins us now from paris. good to have you with us. so what do you make of this instant? it seems to have escalated quite quickly after the shooting, the killing of 3 people in that shooting attack. those clearly some underlying tensions here beyond the one attack. yeah, yeah, thank you for giving me. well, you know, it's not the 1st time that you're in the community has been in france, but not to me. in france. i mean the, in europe. so it's the very oh we have a claim, i mean the

most regarding the relationship between the 2 and the community. and so just so is the reason. 5 the nice center and the member at this number, the 1st men and suspected the woman to be behind this fact. but of course we need much more investigations. you cling to next and coming from the right tween radical numbers that we'd like to to get finance to get to get an attack against the community please. so that has to be of course precise combat that said

that the activity fee in france. busy so the reason why is the, of course, and due to the violence of the attack, we need to key the show that they were very, very angry with what, what happens. all right. the fact that the police revealed that the suspect was previously investigated for a racially motivated attack. that means that there is information about this suspect. what do we know about him? what we know about his history exactly. his connections, if you mean about the suspect this i don't know yet more than what has been

revealed, but to hear that it's somebody who is used to use the high 7 the ground being the violence. a hadn't been the criminal person who already had the recalls on that. but that doesn't mean the doesn't reveal who actually is behind the d b because he gets i did the promptly to to target the community are easy to. busy why you proud so many questions the remember the it will be going to to no,

to exactly decide what the motivation of men, of course is not like like i mean the single man who nobody knows him and he's already has already recall day genesis. so that has to be just a ho, this man was able to, to act despite the fact that he was already know, know the by the law enforcement arrives. clearly one expects more information will come out. thank you so much for sharing your analysis and thoughts on this so far. now the m 23 om group in the democratic republic of congo says its withdrawing from some territory as a goodwill gesture fighters say they'll give up a position in the northeast to

welcome back here watching al jazeera. let's recap those headlines now. there have been clashes between police and protesters in paris onto a gunman, killed 3 people outside the kurdish community center. a suspect has been arrested. he was also detained last year after attacking a migrant sensor in the french capital b. m. 23 armed group in the democratic republic of congo, says its withdrawing from some territory as good will gesture. the fight is se they'll give up a position in the northeast to a regional peace talks. commission. severe winter storm has hit the united states. the national weather service says temperatures of the coldest recorded in full decades. conditions are disrupting holiday, travel for millions of people. the u. s. congressional panel investigating last year's capitol hill attack is released its final report, declaring the blame lies with one man. donald trump,

the hearings into how the insurrection on january, the 6th happens, and who was responsible, focused mostly on the role played by the former president, alexander biased reports record. the january 6th committee has cemented its place in the history books, the combination of 18 months of work, more than 1000, witness testimonies, and more than a 1000000 pages of evidence summarized in an 845 page report. this is uncharted territory or the united states for the department of justice to actually weigh whether or not to break charges against donald trump. the report details how then president donald trump carried out a plan to overturn the 2020 presidential election result from knowingly disseminating false information. to pressuring the vice president, members of congress and local and federal officials, he failed then summoned a mob of his supporters to washington and did nothing to stop them as they attacked

the capital for more than 3 hours. committee members were unanimous in their conclusion. one man cause the january 6th attack donald trump, and they've made clear he must be held accountable. earlier this week, they formerly accused the former president of inciting insurrection and other crimes, and recommended he face criminal prosecution. the justice department is conducting its own investigation and the committee hopes its findings will be a roadmap for the special council heading that process. trump has dismissed what he says are faked charges as an attempt to block his white house run into years. time . analysts say if the significant moment for us politics, this is unprecedented. we're talking about a former us president and also a candidate for the president of the united states in 2024. even though this is non binding. this certainly puts pressure on the justice department to actually weigh

this evidence against the former president. republicans will take control of the house in the new year, almost certainly putting an end to any further congressional investigations into the insurrection. now ensuring accountability for the attack and the decision to press charges lies solely with the department of justice. alexander buyers, al jazeera, a 1000 bolder force workers are on strike across the u. k. they've down tools a few days after ambulance drivers in this is took similar action for the full staff for demanding a 10 percent pay increase. inflation in the u. k is currently at 10.7 percent full . brennan has more from london heathrow at fort the board. of force officers who over walking out over 8 days over this christmas period are the people who essentially check your passports when you arrive in the u. k. at arrivals here at

he throw the number of flights that we're talking about somewhere in the region of $900000.00 passengers would be arriving at heathrow during that period. in total, it's been estimated that some nearly $9000.00 flights and all the airports that are affected over this 8 day period. and that would amount to around $1700000.00 passengers. who will find that when they do land, they're facing big cues to actually get out through arrival, through passport control and that towards the baggage reclaim. it's just the latest in a series of strikes in private and public sector workers. border force have been told by the government that public sector employees and they've been told by the government they will get to present as a pay rise on board. of course, not happy about that. inflation running a 10 percent as far as the mitigation efforts at the border force executives are putting into place well, the executives are saying that safety and security is non negotiable. robust plans

are in place that talking about drafting in members of the military and volunteer staff. people though, should be prepared for disruption, is the warning from board of force chiefs is going to last 8 days and it's going to be quite significant. and now let's have back to paris where we can speak again. tim tasha bought low and get an update on those clashes we've seen breaking out following this afternoon steadily shooting how quiet of the streets now. natasha. whether a lot of people are milling around this is normally a busy area anyway with lot says cafes, restaurants and bars. i thought i have to say in terms of the protesters, the people from the current community that we saw a little bit earlier, who were protesting air. most of them seem to have an stops and their demonstration at police did move in a little bit earlier, things did become violent. some of the protesters were throwing rocks and bottles up in the year. they were burning flags on the ground. and that is because many of

them said that they feel very insecure, they don't feel that they are protected and they feel that the shooting that took place a little bit earlier in the city, not far from the gear, is targeted at them. and the reason they say that is because our shooting took place in the street where there was a cold is community center. i'm what the french interior minister has said is that he is not a he is not sure that that attack was directed to the kurdish community. in fact, what police and the french interior minister is saying is that they don't yet know the motivations for the attack. the shooting are also happened at a hair dressers outside a restaurant in the street. 69 year old man, a french man was arrested by police to use apparently in the hospital because he was injured. and this is somebody who was in 2021 charged with racist violence for trying to attack some migrants in a migrant camp in the center of the city. all right,

parliamentarians are wearing masks and encouraging people to do the same, cannot accost aid in southern india has made faith coverings, compulsory indoors. but i don't, bobby, we have asked states to become more vigilant and increased genome sequencing of all positive cases. if we have a new variant in india, we can identified in advance because of the festive season and new year. we have asked this to ask people to use masks and sanitizers and encourage social distances . there's also renewed focus on vaccines. why 90 percent of eligible people are fully vaccinated against forward 19? only a quarter have received a booster shot epidemiologist, the immunization is crucial to managing a virus that he had to stay. i'm not thinking yet it's to panic. because the situation in india is very different from that. in china and india, we have had exposure to the wireless in various font including omicron in january

this year. and we have quite a fair amount of immunity because of the exposure to different less otherwise. while the government is often people not to panic, it's preparing more guidelines for the holiday season. several hospitals nationwide will conduct drills next week to ensure they're ready to handle an influx of patients should the need arise. 5 new missile, i'll just 0. you deli, at least 2 people have been killed and dozens injured in a wildfire, and she lay about 130 homes in the city of vienna. the mom was destroyed every night on 6000 people have been left without power till a president has declared the state of emergency. oil giant shell is agreed to pay natty $16000000.00 to communities in nigeria affected by leaks and oil pipelines. company says the settlement for oil spills between 20042007 is not in admission of liable.
