and on the run ethiopians flee for their lives as the government orders the army to start the final phase of an offensive in the northern region of teak. right? we'll have the latest from mad as out of the nickel for good to have you with us. tens of thousands of people have paid their final respects to argentinian football, superstar, diego maradona, and when osiris he died on wednesday at the age of 60 after suffering a heart attack, his body was taken away for boro. after lying in state at the presidential palace cheering for their hero, one last time was

outside the presidential palace. and despite the ongoing pandemic, tens of thousands of mourners have been lining up for their chance to pay their respects. scuffles broke out when police moved to shut down, access to the presidential palace. now the motions are running high. it isn't what you might feel today. the football has died. i have no words for me. he's the greatest and all carry him in my heart forever. yeah, that got us young and we got us on but you know not we can't believe it. he's a guy who made a nation happy with a ball on the specially the poor. he made us happy in a way that politicians can't no, no. when i said he made all of us happy, there won't ever be anybody like maradona. i think crying since yesterday.

kerry, we want to see diablo, the crowd saying, yes, argentina's president, i'll bet it does fernandez. got his chance to pay his respects to deal on another on a national and international icon up to a 1000000, people had been expected to visit his casket. but on thursday evening, the wake was unexpectedly closed and his body taken by hurst to a born outside a cemetery, where the footballing legend will be laid to rest. more on this, let's bring in correspondent, but he has a butt end. when osiris much, he has welcomed thousands lined up in front of the presidential palace to bid maradona farewell. only a small fraction of them actually got to you were there. how did people react when

the wake was shut down? many of them really said frustrated because they had waited since the beginning of the morning to visit him a last time 6 or 8 hours. they have there been outside the presidential palace and they didn't get to him. and so they were prostrated, and it was just a little time to meet him and all the crowds couldn't get through. so it was a sad moment for them in the end, when the body words carried to the cemetery. when it left the presidential palace, many of them ran behind the car singing, and many of them also crying. this was of course, a hugely emotional day for argentinian to have covered south america for quite some time. now. have you ever experienced anything like this? no, and i think it's really a short time, they had the people who could it was a demurrer donna. the decision has been taken by the family and the government just

to have this thursday for this death watch so many people are frustrated and i think it's not common here. people who are bird really fast after their death, but they had, has been the chance to have 2 or 3 days for the deathwatch. but maradona and his family, the family decided not to wait so long. so it was really the short goodbye for many argentinians. he's now going to be laid to rest alongside his parents on the outside of the outskirts and when osiris where you are at what can you tell us about the ceremony which is underway, as we speak, it takes place it behind me, some 2 kilometers away at a private cemetery in bella, vista is the name and the family decided for really private ceremony. this event is

only for the family members of murder, almost 1st wife and his children. so before the public bought the public would be present outside the cemetery. there are already some $100000.00 people waiting for a sign, at least sitting there, praying crying and singing. so it's like an event, a bizarre event between a football, most fear and ceremony, or of the death of my murder. but end when osiris. thank you very much. prime minister, i'll be ahmed, has said that thousands of militia and special forces have surrendered. following a government issued ultimatum, federal troops have been told to advance on the t. brian capital may kelly after 3 weeks of fighting. he warned its half 1000000 residents to stay indoors and disarm. tens of thousands of displaced ethiopians has

poured into neighboring sudan to seek refuge. going by journalist samuel, get to chew in the capital and us abba samuel, good to see you again. tell us what's the latest coming out of the cry? the latest is in the last 24 hours, the prime minister gave the green light for your good members of the army to go into mccully and we, the people of mccully or the people of the great government side likes to say we haven't been updated. he tweeted a few are civil saying they're going to make sure that really and will be protected and heritage sites because their region is full of heritage sites will also put the protected and they will try to minimize the impact it will have on the

population was one thing to say that civilians are going to be protected, but do we know what is actually being done to protect them in a situation? you know, without being given the green light to travel to the we can't even make sure whatever either side is telling us is the truth. we're focusing on the assistance, of respected organizations like the u.n., international human rights watch. and also the victims that continue to go to the sudan looking for some kind of safety. now, number more than 40000. and i have to remind you, this, our official numbers we need by the u.n. more people that haven't been accounted for, that the u.n. doesn't know about. and it's in the u.n. is under resourced. and it's just a desperate situation. and even watching this from a distance is really, really plenty of people internally displaced air as well. what is the rescue of

this escalating into a full scale civil war, samuel? you know, i've been list listening to my colleagues, disagree with me. but from what takes the heading to the sudan. the region is known for all kinds of conflicts. house today, for example, has always been on conflict. since 2011 since gained its independence. migration has been an issue. becomes heading to your condition. there was, i would, i like to say that there will be a migration unless you and other countries really see the big picture and try to find a solution. so far, the field and side has said, the prime minister has said they've exhausted all kinds of mediation. he's only meeting with the african delegation, led by former north noble peace lawyers from lay bare the head of state from they

are. and he's not going to even discuss any kind of ceasefire, so it's a caution you to producing them everywhere. and you'll get a chilling added app of many thanks. thank you. a turkish court has handed down life sentences for 337. defendants accused of carrying out an attempted coup in 2016. beings are scenes from outside the course. many of those sentenced are former army commanders and pilots. they were convicted of charges including murder, violating the constitution, and attempting to assassinate the president. a massive trial is one of dozens of court cases targeting alleged supporters of u.s. based cleric said to allow glenn accuses him of orchestrating the failed coup. critics are arguing that the turkish government is trying to silence the opposition

rather than punishing those involved in the coup attempt. we put that question to our correspondent dorian jones. let's have a listen. well, certainly is the concern of the opponents of president urged one. the sheer scale of this crackdown of to this failed coup is breathtaking. according to the interior ministry, 292000 people have been detained in the aftermath of the coup. also 100000 people still in jail awaiting trial and 2 and a half 1000 life sentences so-called being given to those deemed responsible for the federal takeover. on top of that, you've seen over $150000.00, civil servants losing the jokes, including teachers and academics. and while there was proved to pull to for the government to be a coup and condemnation of that takeover and also support for the government's mind that putin and his followers will in support of this. this just the scale of this, this crackdown is leading to growing concern that this is targeting,

being the opponent to the government rather than just couldn't supporters and those involved in the coup. the government that you learn and his network of devoted to very sophisticated and dangerous and denies ation, that has infiltrated the. so if you stay to go to take society and need such many measures. so all those wanted by to this line initially with very rare unison unification of the political divide in the coup, which is now seen increasingly, critics of feelin and opponents of the government being jailed, including journalists and also leading members of the kurdish movement as increasingly leading to concerns that no one has used. this is a takeover and an opportunity to silence moments of his rule. the danish prime minister has apologized for a mass call of makes. earlier this month, denmark ordered the killing of the animals after a mutated form of corona virus was found to have been transmitted between mix and humans. the order led to mass protests among farmers and the government has now

apologized for acting too quickly. these pictures are of a mass grave on military land in denmark. thousands of the country's famed mink were buried here after the government declared a mess call. now hundreds of them have begun to resurface as gases build up as the mix decompose. the government ordered the car laughter about a dozen people were north and denmark were infected by a mutated version of corona virus. one found on makes the cull order outraged farmers and sparked huge protests. many accuse the government of acting unlawfully and too quickly to get rid of what's seen as an undesirable industry. they decided to go after the make farmers and they did it overnight without permission, without having the law to back them up. and they have to be punished for that. the

rest of us are not allowed to go through a red light. the move is already having global economic consequences. denmark is the world's largest exporter of make fur. and the culling of its mink population is being felt as far away as china. the sudden make price increase in europe has put great pressure on both production and marketing of make for clothing here. china's fur clothing industry has seen its exports plummet sharply and feels like a rollercoaster ride. nobody imagined this could happen. the price of mink fur accounts for about 80 percent of the cost of fur clothing. the sudden increase has put a lot of pressure on us. now even more pressure is being put on the danish government with about 9000000 of denmark, 17000000 minks, already culled. some local authorities are now calling for the animal's remains to be exuberant and promoted, saying in their current location, they pose a threat to nearby water supplies. it seems the government's hasty actions could be

coming back to haunt it. you're watching daily news life elsewhere, lending that we have business with kate ferguson is up after a short break. stay tuned for that. more world news for you at the top of the hour . i've seen you have to be a book and you, your me know, your years really knew you and how the last 2 years german chancellor, we'll bring you what i'm going to call as you've never been surprised to. so with

what is possible? who is medical really what moves i want to talk to people who follow along the way . my runs and critics alike. how is the world's most powerful woman shaping her legacy? joining us from eccles last stop. this is g.w. news, africa on the program today. ethiopia's military say's it's begun. the final phase of an old friend served in the northern tip grind region. d.w. visited a u.n. camp housing refugees who fled to neighboring sudan. they say they are living in desperate conditions. i can't breast feed him and here they don't have milk, colorado and the food the baby needs. we've been in this come for 3 days. we don't have any shelter. and election day is drawing closer in the central african

republic. but a crucial message hasn't reached people in the rural areas. hello, i'm presumably it's good to have your company. if you o.p.'s prime minister, has ordered the army to move in on the to grab region capital, making it. the instruction comes to his 72 hour ultimatum for to grab leaders to surrender. ended up thousands have fled into neighboring sudan, where conditions are desperate. the u.n. is warning. it is running low on essential supplies for the people who have been displaced by the conflict. correspondent mario loyola reports from the camp, which is 80 kilometers away from the region off to grab our cool backhand. once housed refugees who fled if your peers famine in the 1980 s.

. now some 9000 people have saved themselves once again. but this time it's because of war. in this hospital, people wait for hours before receiving treatment like i got here. she her baby and her father escaped the war in the thick ryan town of whom there was no move or probably the drill. i was afraid because the bombs kept falling for 3 days. we just left without money without clothes than i and it took 10 days to come here. now wait here in sudan, we've been in this camp for 3 days. we don't have any shelter. her father has terminal cancer since they got out, he hasn't received his medication. people here at deaths, but they tell us water, food and shelter are scarce. some of them have to sleep on the ground,

struggling to get enough food and medical aid. the new refugees crossing the border to sudan, worry aid groups are representative to all those. we are able to respond to a growing influx. people need very thing from water, food, and shelter. so at the moment we are catering for over 9000 people and the whole me report that's not enough. and it's children who are suffering the most. it's estimated that hard after bessie g.'s, our children, many of them need medical treatment like 5 months old. he's been coughing and has had diarrhea since days. i can't breast feed him and here they don't have milk powder and the food the baby needs. outside the hospital we meet whose house was bombed and who made up the side of reportedly some of the heaviest fighting between its european forces and the to grain army,

he got shot in the leg. and i mean they are deliberately, i am alone. my mom and my dad were killed by the bombing. these clothes are my only ones. i will have them for days. nobody helps me. i don't have enough water or food here. nobody takes care of any link. if more refugees arrive olim fears that the situation could get even worse. and i'm now joined by bob about laci is the spokes person off the you in refugee agency. welcome to date any as africa have people at the camp that is a year when camp told our reporter that there is not enough food and shells have that, that people are having to sleep on the floor. we heard from a nursing mother who said that there is no formula, it just appear in spite of that. the u.n.h.c.r. is report response to this crisis is somewhat lacking.

my colleagues in sudan says the photos when the refugees started to arrive. it was a trickle fost on the 9th of november and then v.d.c. 7000 the next day. so the sheer numbers of refugees arriving in sudan's, remove corners, or stretch the humanitarian response. to reach move people the flow know has been like 3000 people per day. it has been an effort in terms of logistics and distances. trying to move. people are very from the border and just for them and provide them the necessary they need. and that still continues, but it is a huge challenge. ok. the other thing is that the people that you're referring to, these are the people that have actually left to cry and now find themselves and

sadat. have you been able to reach people who for some reason cannot leave to cry? so the number of refugees that have arrived since the start of conflict inside sudan has crossed 43000. even till yesterday, nearly a 1000 arrive, you're really worried for civilians inside figurine region, there's no access is an information blackout and particularly worrying about civilians. but also let's not forget, there are nearly 800000 is literally in refugees in 4 g. camps. and even before this conflict started, there was word 100000 internally displaced people, the 2 pins. the other, the other aspects of this is that many families have been separated by these conflicts. can you tell us more about that? indeed, we keep hearing heartbreaking stories of family separations mothers looking for

their children, daughters and sons, wives and husbands have been separated. many have left going in different direction. and that's the reason many of the refugee families that have arrived and they have members separated. they want to stay close to the border point one in the hope that they may seen their loved ones soon. so for us, as unity are, we have been trying to move people of you from the border. so far we have been able to move at least near 10000, but the number of refugees that have arrived is 43000. that's speaks for the hearing refugee agency. thank you. thank you. the central african republic is preparing to hold presidential and local elections, but many would be voters won't get to have they say, even though

a peace deal was signed last year. the country is still tense from fighting, broke out between christian and muslim communities. in 2014, the conflict forced a quarter of a 1000000 people out of the country and despite attempts they will not be allowed to take part in the december election. they aren't the only ones. people in rural areas also largely take part. as it is a small village in power, south of neighboring chad, leaves into the small isolated village near the border. like everyone else in her village. this is what the 6 year old grandmother is. look reduced to take part in the upcoming elections. in order to reduce the you have to show the authorities a national identification card, a passport, or a birth certificate. in places like visibility, where people do not have identification documents, the national elections or purity allows chiefs to place to fight us to the residence of the citizens. the people in this village are completely cut off from

the information and are not a will was fact. so we're just here to vote. what does that mean? here is my voter identification. i've lived here since i was gored. i don't know what a voter's card or an id card is. i'm too old for new things. all i know about this agriculture. but if voting is a good thing, i'd like to vote before i die. but we'll have to wait a little bit longer because the election authorities will not be able to access these done villages along the borders because of the presence of m groups. as the central african republic, a country transitioning to democracy, it is not able to fully organize elections. this is difficult to organize elections in a country that is just coming out of a crisis. the international community helped us and thanks to their help, we are moving toward these elections, even though our country is going through a difficult time period. you visited the city of bank

in the northern part of it. these are not small conflict ridden territory several times and nothing has changed. even finding out these are some of the things that disappoint me because of the final

4. who died after suffering a heart attack. some of africa's have shared their thoughts, the liberian president his extraordinary story of football to bring joy and i can't believe it. my great friend said to his family and the people of now there's only got to watch diego maradona from afar. here are some tributes from johannesburg,

south africa. this is a great night, believed, believed in his name did, and then like so many seem and maybe it's a great loss of so cold. the ego of passing the ball though if you were to believe the number of goals winning the world cup his achievement. if i, if i could remember when you scored with his head. and then you was asked by a show media who said, why you scored the goal would have under difficult to see the need apply. them said no, i wouldn't go in the home not to the hands of court to africa. i would like for people to just see and learn from these chains and to he's come at me, maybe be inspired by how they've changed many people's lives. and that is a for now be sure to check out our other stories m d w dot com, forward slash africa. we're also on facebook and on twitter today, we'll leave it with more pictures of the latest year. but i don't at all next, have a back to

season. this is something business i'm k. ferguson, thanks for joining me for. digital currency is our own a rapid descent after reaching record highs over the past few days. the value of bitcoin dropped 13 percent on thursday. this after gaining about 50 percent in value over the past 3 months. other digital currencies followed the downward trend . so what's behind the wild swings state of your reports? you can exchange regular money for the world's best known digital currency. big corn machines like this one here in china. one of the reasons why bitcoin is so attractive is that supply is limited to numbers. cop to 21000000 to cryptocurrency has seen wild price swings since it was launched in 2009. to share prices are on an upswing. the value of bitcoins has trebled sincerity of this year

. it's a stunning rise until now because it was mostly the preserve of private investors. but in this year of pandemic driven uncertainty, it's different retail investors. and more importantly, institutions and corporations, they're shopping for a new currency. ok, they want to currency that gives them purchasing power to protect them. in case paper currencies fall, because central banks have to print more and more money to help the world survive the virus and social disorder. so that's what drove the markets this year. thursday, so prices fall, which suggests profit taking by investors. although like so much else to do with bitcoin, that's pure speculation. let's get some expert analysis now from craig earle and senior market analyst in london. hi, craig. good to see you. tell me why are we seeing these oftentimes not?

well, i mean. 2 you know, it all started really the kind of explosion high over months ago, links to kind of the pay pal stories, etc. nothing that really generated some interest. but i think big and all the crypt, those are just one of those. what the more you talk about it, the more it's in the news, the better the price bills and the more volatility that you see in the market now is one thing that's just not changed since 27. seen it very much thrives on increasing amount of hype over the course of the last month, and that's a killer, which is why we've seen these kind of extraordinary price gains. now, if we do see this breaking record highs and moving into the 20 $1000.00 average tree, then who knows how much extra hype can be generated and how much fred we can go. but equally, as we've seen over the last 24 hours, this is not a one way moving instrument. they start which has to a price action. and in the same way the old adage goes that it goes up the stairs

and down the lift. when it comes down in the lift, when it comes to big coin, it comes down quite aggressively. if there's any doubt and pray your eye markets manufacturers, do you think it will carry in fees are a fall at investment? i think it's a bit early to be talking about them as a solid investment. and the simple reason is the highly volatile. so solid investments. i think that this goal to be some stability through a notch tilson exist in the cryptocurrency space. it's a highly speculative investment. and therefore, if people are interested in make it part of the portfolio, is your margin that is probably still going to be a very small pots of thoughts because of the level of volatility. that means that you can make extraordinary bit sense, but then you can take significant losses that really wouldn't see typically in any well the investment instruments. so i think people still up to bat out of mine up doesn't mean that it calmed at some point because more impressive or more solid

investments in a bigger part of people's portfolios. but at this moment, it's on the volatility. just if you can escape the fox, that this is an instrument that can make, make 50 percent and lose 50 percent in an extraordinary period. its own perspective, it goes in a mine mines believe you can make all be viewed as anything more than a speculative instrument. you need an opera type for risk in london. thank you so much for your time. thank you. during the pandemic, many people have found follows a skate of them in books, science fiction and romance have proven especially popular. but the renewed love of reading have to translate into a sales boost for bricks and mortar stores. on line competition. a foot full of half left many independent sellers struggling downtown washington d.c. seems deserted. employees of the many think tanks, banks,

and international institutions based in the u.s. capital are working from home. before the pandemic, at least 15000 passengers took the metro as red line to work every day. these days it's just $1500.00. that's one reason why small shops in the city center are losing customers. like this antiquarian bookstore, washington is free from a virtual ghost town. 90 percent of our foot traffic has ended between people not coming in, who were up or communities not going on the street. and there's absolutely no tourism, which was part of our journal sales. every allan's type extort, i had to shut for 6 months. government coronavirus assistance and able to him to keep his 40 employees. and his landlord kindly lowered his rent for a time. but that's no long term solution. so he's had to rely on his internet business. we have 25000 books on amazon. amazon is one of our income platform streams and mortar stores. until recently,

the internet was seen as one of the biggest threat to these small businesses. but the pandemic is now a much greater evil. small bookstores are among the biggest losers due to the lock down. and internet giants like amazon among the biggest winners. last quarter, the internet retail giant posted a profit of more than $6000000000.00, the largest in the company's 26 year history. that makes booksellers like allen stripe, all the more to pendent on amazon. that could continue even after a lockdown, since there's no guarantee that customers will come back to stores. figure a peon union has approved a mini trade deal with the united states, which include feel emanation of tariffs on u.s. lobster imports. the e.u. will drop a 8 percent tariff on us for the next 5 years, and possibly even for good. the business was worth well over $100000000.00,
