the high commissioner is calling for a full inquiry if confirmed as having being deliberately carried out by a party to the current fighting. these killings of civilians would of course amount to war crimes. it's still unclear who is responsible for the mass killings follow days of clashes between federal troops and to ground forces. the region has become the latest flashpoint, stemming from ethiopia's complex. if need politics to grinds control if you central government for 30 years. but their power has waned under prime minister ahmed. he came to power in 28 increasing resentment in tensions became open. defiance in september, went to grow, rejected the central government's authority and held its own elections. now the feud has descended into conflict with the government, vowing to crush what it calls a rebellion if the criminal

decide a legitimate target. mr. vision is it is taught and fugitive and brought to justice as civilians flee fears amounting that ethiopia could be at the beginning of a protracted and bloody civil war. let's go now to the ethiopian capital, addis ababa, where journalist samuel guitar show is standing by hello to you, samuel. now it has been difficult for outsiders to get accurate information on what's going on. what is the latest you can tell us on this conflict? while the media and the in joke kind of travel to the region, what we are reflecting on is the report that's coming from mr. international human rights watch. the n.g.o.s, the people that have fled to sudan, telling us, telling the world that this is heading to

a potential civil war and money. many people are dying in sudan, it's getting up to $20000.00 ethiopians have moved to the sudan looking for shelter . so this is becoming a disaster, not just for ethiopia or the region. it's heading to too, it's affecting everyone. so everybody is overwhelmed with the need that they have. they can't even transport to there. so you can imagine the impact it's having on the ground. what exactly sparked this fighting, what is at the heart of the conflict? looks like it's, you know, the government, the government has placed a condition for a cease fire, which is 200 leadership of the region, which the central government sees as being illegal. and also the destruction of all arms. they have been storing for a long time. you have to,

you have to remember the tepee aleppo was in treadmill government in charge of the ethiopian federal government for 27 years. so they've only left, they've only gone back to their own state in the last 3 years. so it looks like it's a mixture of power, struggle and not wanting to accept the changes that are happening. you know, it's a mixture of all of those. but again, impact it's having on the ground is just huge. it goes beyond the governments of our suburb and the state of to agree. well, we also know that gras is not the only region in the opiate that has seen tensions in recent months. samuel, how is this latest conflict affecting ethiopia's overall stability? there was a gunfire or, you know, a sound of fire or a scene in the heart of for the region and gondor and the bar door, which is

a tourist attraction. we can't confirm anybody has died, but it's tickling down all over the nation. but beyond the conflicts, there's also conflicts all over or, i mean a region people dying. so it's becoming a huge disaster. and a lister is going to be a cease fire. you'll see thousands or people being affected. a reminder of what happened to ethiopia some 30 years ago with the ethiopian famine that are free to so many people in beit instant with thousands. but he thousands of your friends all over the world. journalists sang on guitar too in addison baba, thanks so much for your reporting. thank you. thank you. let's get a check now of some of the other stories making news around the world. at least 53 people have died following floods, landslides and accidents caused by typhoon bunco in the philippines. the storm was

on the missionary underprivileged just diplomat who can always get straight to the point the good to institute's outgoing director. close to tell a man we look at his final year in office and his impressive career name on the last cultural diplomat starts nov 16th on d, w. doing the dishes, folding laundry and packing, a lunch box, scientists, ice broadening the different ways it was robots could help us. how exactly could robots shape our everyday lives? topic on ship today to pan produces around 50 percent of the world's robots. no wonder it's called the

robot nation. this is even an official government scheme that focuses on a new industrial revolution through robotics. but robots are commonplace in many other areas too. in japan, where nearly 30 percent of the population is 65 or older, robots are more important for personal use. is your rosy ishiguro a world leading roboticist on why? we need to have them are all bots that can support our day? i believe they can have to drop, but that kind of a robot society, the same human singhvi, i think in the end of the society to you know, future symbiotic robots. that sounds a little too was science fiction. it to me, still, many tech companies claim that they're all bots can really make a difference in house work, but this is still far ahead in the future, even in japan. at the moment, most robots take care of one specific chore and leave the rest to humans like me. it is the japanese thought of however, working on a robot which they claim will take care of all the housework. but let's look at

introducing you. go all around talent and future household. superstar hugo can grip is hide adjustable and rolls on wheels. the start of your robotics promotes. hugo is a more discrete and cheaper alternative to a human cleaner. we're pretty uncommon in japan. at the moment you go still appears to be quite slow and clumsy. but in the future, this new robot butler is supposed to be able to take on any household chore imaginable, any time. so when i think i would like to let robots handle repetitive talks less than a routine toss so that people can be more creative. for example, if the robot does the house for, for us this time we have more time for us. this is how we want to improve the quality of life for people in japan.

quipped with a total of $22.00 sensors and 3 cameras to assist in navigating space and recognizing objects. despite being equipped with an ai system, hugo is still incapable of doing chores properly on its own. so a staff member has to operate it by remote control. a controller synchronizes the robot's movements with those of the human operator. hugo is still a long way off from working a tone in a sling. so you go is operated by someone i don't know from a remote place. what do they see? the camera get turned off. what happens to my data? who protects my privacy? here everybody's claim that operators only see blurry images. so the robots have to guess what they're cleaning to someone like me, that's not very convincing. i can be a bit of a neat freak. toyota is also working on a ton of those robots will help manage house work, but there's one issue that is difficult to solve. the robot has to know how much pressure the sponsor needs to apply on the different surfaces to properly clean

them with an expensive flat screen t.v. . the machine should be very careful when humans and robots work together, security becomes important. this robot he's already working with humans in japan. next age is a humanoid robot, developed to collaborate with human colleagues. companies like oman and kolata robotics are leading the race in developing collaborative robots. these new colleagues have one important advantage over people. their work is precise and they never get tired. really, we have to make serious productivity improvement in japanese that used machines in robots to do this. so we're not going to steal a robot. robotics trade fairs like iraq's in tokyo show what the future workplace

could look like in japan. robot production has long been a key industry around 130 companies make robots here in the past. these trade fairs were opportunities for companies to show off. big robots used in industrial production. now there's a trend toward service and partner robots. so i can say we also goal recently the government's focus has shifted from making new robots to using them sensibly in society. so do you have sort of the you will just source, they got suckered, it's coded to you and i think we need to think of robots as tools or partners to reach our goal of building a better society where people can feel good and healthy. you're talking with us or you struggle with us here with us. it's a big vision with a long way to go. there are still many technicalities that need to be addressed,

particularly because collaborative robots are often a security risk for their human colleagues. since robots can't estimate their own strength, next and huge operates in battery saving remote cameras attached to its head and arms are supposed to help the robot to analyze space and objects interchangeable. robot hands used to grant enhanced its many uses, but at around 90000 euros a piece, not every company can afford this technology. the right now, next stage is just working in a factory that this type of collaborative robot will be needed in a way where we're hoping that will someday be able to take it without construction sites and forestry fishery holders. in japan, they were not be taking away jobs. they're called workers. that's what i did. like many other western countries,

we're still prejudiced against industrial robots here in germany. the main argument is they take away no jobs, but they're leaving all something else. coworking can also make jobs easier. french robot is this just young, want to go, has been working and living in japan for a long time. she says that cold working with robots is viewed differently there. there is nothing to eat, something which defines about craftsmanship and the art of making things perfect. there is also like a very clear social care by companies to that one cause. and so the never introduced one month to me. they swung, but they introduced was to make the workplace better working with the robot is something that is i don't like having a robot in your company. something that is really nice. this attitude that robots are cool is a sentiment that you go develop us also ship a remote control used by and operate it isn't exactly cool, but it's only a temporary measure. you will believes that intelligent machines will take on show

us independently in the future. hugo's target audience or the elderly and professionals. the company believes that you can make a real difference in their lives, but it's also expensive. depending on operating time, the monthly rental costs are between 800 to 600 euros. the upside is you go supposed to make life longer and more comfortable. the more in the future i find vision robot and turn on houses and doing all the new home, some alone with the advancement of medical care in japan. i think that this will enable people to live long enough to have a robust like hugo also sought after for the ability to us in medicine, especially since the outbreak of the corona virus now robotics companies preparing their robots to assist in 3 key areas. cleaning robots could contaminate rooms or dispose of hospital waste,

so humans avoid risks. checkups robots could help check on patients confined to their beds or in quarantine. this could alleviate the pressure on medical stop. selling medicine robots have been assisting during surgery for a while in japan. they're also creating so-called surgical robles tokyo based startup river field wants to launch its new model in a few years to compete with the current m.v.p. of surgical robots made in the u.s. . when it comes to surgical assistance, da vinci is state of the art. this robot can remove tumors tissue from someone with prostate cancer, but it doesn't operate autonomously. a control panel that surgeons use the robot arms in real time, which has one big advantage, motion scaling and trammel filters. this allows the surgical robot to work more precisely. but the defense the robot has to disadvantages. it doesn't receive any haptic feedback, meaning it can't feel for specific body parts,

and it's very expensive to eventually cost up to $2000000.00. europe's tokyo based company river field is trying to solve these problems. there, robot is quite similar to differentiate and will cost less. here the robot arms are powered by air pressure. this enables haptic feedback, reducing the risk of injury. so this should make the operation more intuitive. believe you feel more important, your pad coming in late over this or what i may need for the treatment. many other countries are also turning to robots to help in the medical and care sectors. future physicians will have to train intensively to use these new technology to

benefit not only for the patient, but also the surgeon for the patient. hospital failure to become a recovery faster also for the doctors they can do the surgery by sitting in the chair can be minimised by using the robot. surgeons probably won't be replaced anytime soon. but with the right mobile communication, doctors could soon be performing tele surgery across long distances. and this may be beneficial for people living in remote areas without access to medical care. whether they're assisting in surgery or doing chores at home, robots are supposed to help people with things that are difficult or that we simply don't want to do. in japan, i saw how ai machines are used in dating. and if it were up to professor for me,

documents to know, we wouldn't even be aware of the role that machines play in our lives. the result which is that of the disappearing robot. i mean in the future, robots will become invisible to us. they will be such a common part of our lives that we don't really think of them as robots and, you know, well, if my own vacuum robot had only done his job properly, then i'd probably still be using it. robots for personal use at home, helpful, or just new electronic waste. let us know what you think on facebook. dot com at to youtube for more videos from japan, including well robots. that's it from you today. see you next time the
