12:02 pm
well hostilities in are spreading beyond the disputed territory to we several towns in azerbaijan being hit it called into these every government it claims that some were struck by missiles and they need to speeds that because you've done of course now from the corner karabakh region things like this one are common here in the go and i care about in fact this tiny village alone was battered by 6 massive missiles here's where one of them landed and this is all the devastation that it has left but it is not where the azerbaijanis had hoped where it would land because we are about we were just a few 100 meters away from the airport of step on a cart and here the airport it's much bigger than just taking people from point a to point b. it's political it's a symbol of independence and
12:03 pm
a symbol of allegiance of the local government to the authorities of armenia and that is why i was there by john isn't happy at all that it's here in fact since since this airport was renovated and became operational again back in 2012 it became a regular target of attacks in fact it went as thereby john went as far as threatening to shoot down planes coming in and out of this airport but later backtracked saying that it would never target civilians but even if it doesn't even as it doesn't target civilians specifically well they still get the short end of the stick as you can clearly see but i talked to them i talked to the owner of this house who still lives here and he's told me that he's not going anywhere bush to do what i've lived here for almost 20 years and i don't want to move away i will work your instant into the end of my life and he's not the only one it's the general mood here as people prefer to stay and live in their homes even of bombs fall on
12:04 pm
their heads i guess done of reporting from the disputed region of nagorno-karabakh . red cross. does say that locals encounter back a phantom selves in an impossible situation having a terrible impact on civilians the humanitarian consequences are already apparent we're on the ground across the region and what we are seeing and hearing is that people are absolutely terrified being forced to make really impossible decisions on how to teach themselves and their families safe people are reportedly on the move trying to find shelter on top of statistics is all happening in the context where winter is coming people have already been dealing with global pandemic we have been helping hospitals in nagorno-karabakh on request we've helped with emergency medical supplies our teams in the field it's quite restricted in terms of what they
12:05 pm
can do because of the volatility of the situation because the fighting is so intense in places so we haven't actually even been able to get out and do a full assessment as we as we would like to do obviously people people do need support and people need help and where we can we've been stepping up and we obviously hope to do a lot more while nearly 20 civilians have reportedly been killed since the fighting broke out just over a week ago as a johns defense ministry claims it has not been targeting civilians a senior advisor to you is a johns president gave us his views on the escalating conflict. army be a good actor is the answer rip it off in the cold war it is worse and we have seen other requirements live pictures over this planet's i once again the most wanted to be able. side but exactly what happened and that is the source of those who come. home to the church and home to attack just the armenians but the proportions. we
12:06 pm
are sure in terms of attack and show will also be considered before coming to a school i have received or worth it just was in our will to solzhenitsyn do that or is this the path or cigarettes which are just school. near circus prosecutor office hours or civilian organs and you settle for also but you know i think these are they going to sort of feel as a government that these 2 are going to hear. that despite you coronavirus rules banning mass gatherings in israel thousands rallied over the weekend demanding the resignation of the prime minister benjamin netanyahu his handling of the pandemic and dozens were arrested for a slip has more details. i was
12:07 pm
wild over the weekend we saw tales of thousands of protesters demonstrating throughout israel against the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu now mass protests are currently forbidden in the country and people are only allowed to gather within one kilometer from their home so the result is that was small we saw hundreds of small demonstrations taking place in tel aviv was one of the scenes where those demonstrations was altered in violence. now the local police chief has complained to criticize protesters for using
12:08 pm
violence against police officers for example throwing eggs we know that $38.00 protesters were wasted in tel aviv alone for the violation of public water and at the same time for attacking police officers many protesters disturbed order blocked roads to ignore distractions of officers resorted to physical and verbal violence a large majority of virtually broke the emergency regulations when they gathered with no distancing not wearing masks and danger in public health now one of the organizations that has organized protests is known as the black flags movement and it is to make circle where 100000 people out on the streets of the weekend that it is difficult to independently verify it will be on hearing from even isis is that this is and his style the fateful moment they say that they will not be silenced at the organizers threatening. the protests will not stop but will instead go until the prime minister netanyahu lose his post this comes as criticism against the police in the way that they have been handing the whole protest also grows we heard
12:09 pm
from the conference to face ministers going against the attacks on protesters tonight and in recent days around thinkable demonstrations were held in accordance with the guidelines are religious and an essential part of a democracy i call in the police to find the attackers and bring them to justice now the country's prime minister benjamin netanyahu continues to insist that the way he's been handling the protests is legitimate and particularly the way he's been handling the whole pandemic is experiencing its 2nd lockdown however it's likely that these protests against the prime minister will continue in the weeks and months to come they're criticizing the way he's been handling coverage 19 and also they calling out against his corruption charges. meanwhile tough new code restrictions are set to come into force in paris and it's surrounded suburbs the french capital has seen a big spike in cases and on saturday france did register 17000 its highest number
12:10 pm
of daily infections since the pandemic began charlotte pinsky has this report. well the announcements came thick and fast on monday with the 1st announcement the limit on the number of people who can gather together there is a ban or more than 10 people gathering together in public spaces and in places like stadiums there is a limit of a 1000 people that though doesn't apply to protests if they have got the ability to go ahead now you know that bars will shut down in paris and the in the suburbs from tuesday but restaurants will be able to remain open a restaurant will be defined as a place whose main activity of business is selling meals but the selling of alcohol and the consumption of alcohol in public spaces will be banned after 10 pm in the evening now outlining these measures the paris police prefects said that this was because the epidemic was coming too hard too fast and something need to be done
12:11 pm
before it overwhelmed the health system. the measures will be taken for the next 15 days with a reassessment at the end of these 15 days to see whether or not we will renew a certain number of measures whether we will change them. other announcements are a ban on festival student parties and we know that swimming pools games rooms and dance halls will all be closed as a result of the new measures outlined and universities will see a repeat deuced capacity of only 50 percent of the numbers that they can normally hold the mare of paris described the measures as being very hard. and we know that the health crisis is have an extremely dramatic consequences for many families and dramatic consequences for the economic activity of our country and our capital there's also be concern from industry groups over the fact that those bars
12:12 pm
will close they say that that's going to force young people into drinking at home and that they won't be any health put a. calls there were anybody watching them while they do that and the president of one bar cafe in braz a re association said the situation has been so tough on business owners that many of them now having to take it all to depressants it is a great sadness it will be an economic disaster i'm afraid that economically and psychologically the damage will be much greater than the gruner virus there is also being and go down in front says 2nd city of marsay and that's because they are less than impressed by the fact that restaurants will be allowed to stay open in paris if you just think back to a week ago when marsay was put in a maximum alert zone they were told all of the restaurants would have to close that there were protests and people going out to the streets who were unhappy with those restrictions but there is a question there as to where the paris by allowing restaurants to arraign open is
12:13 pm
receiving some sort of preferential treatment so it seems that these covert restrictions are perhaps more controversial than many people would have thought. now the white house press secretary kelly mccann only has become the latest person and president trumps team to test positive for corona virus does come those doctors treating donald trump for code would say that he could actually be discharged from hospital later today after his condition improved trump even briefly left his ward to greet supporters outside walter reed hospital traveling in his motorcade the president did wave to the crowd wearing a mask as you can see here however there is still much speculation about the exact circumstances of him falling ill is saskia taylor. i want to experience the roller coaster of being an american in october 2020 so a bit of a stretch i know but imagine i mean media pundit in the us off to trump's covert
12:14 pm
announcement so my 1st question obviously when was he diagnosed just 72 hours into the diagnosis now the 1st week but 72 hours i mean he found out on wednesday not on thursday as he said i must sniff out more inaccuracy as confusions and conflicting reports the time night is my 1st query of course but that has been cleared up in a memo not that convincing though the white house is clearly sketchy and involved in some kind of cover up also there was a misspelling in the memo i'm sure we can read something into that something terrible and sketchy obviously then we come to symptoms of the bad are they very very bad how fatal is oxygenation levels how bunning is his fever was he taken to hospital because he's literally at death's door as before it's clear the white house is covering it all up. and not just the doctors who say he's actually feeling fine his videos while probably a body double think. we're going to make sure things were the 1st lady's
12:15 pm
doing vista fever while i bet i in my funeral outfit he doesn't have one was the washington post that's not particularly encouraging either way let's pass the wost case scenario and even back to the power not to my pants of course no no to nancy pelosi she's a good solid democrat but then that's the question of intent some of my colleagues are suggesting that trump was a no win the super spreader what should we do with such covert criminals look them up of course comes doing new to find people of. constitutes reckless endangerment in the 1st degree he presented a genuine risk of death to another person in a way demonstrating a deprived indifference to human life. so blown trump knew he had covert 19 traveled on a plain spoken event went into people's faces traveled back never wearing a mask or telling anyone that he was exposing everyone in his a space to covert 19 and peaches in the hospital. if trump knew he had killed that
12:16 pm
19 at the time he debated joe biden he should be charged with assault oh speaking of the debate even molony is not as innocent as she looks molony was the only trump family member who wore a mosque during the debate then she took it off when she went up on stage with the bidens were was she purposefully trying to infect joe biden don't put it past her she's evil just listen to the tapes on the topic of those tapes it's obvious from these leaked phone calls with her trusted while formally 8 that she did really miss being in the white house. working that. i knew. about. it so it's agreed she'll stop at nothing to stay for a few more festive seasons meanwhile as my colleagues predict trumps imminent death there are some out there who are sharing it on president trips in a hospital from colbert and i just was same our heart goes out to covert.
12:17 pm
social media platforms even had to step in and take down the thousands of posts wishing trump dead i mean if twittering coa delete and contest against donald trump we know it's descended into chaos either way all those people who already dancing on traumas killed a grave need not worry because that chosen candidate might be the oldest democratic nominee ever but you know matata he's an a for the long run these. things are. very busy this is the. right. word just. so i can say is this is really building anticipation for the upcoming 3 peat debate which if you really think about it all things considered looks a lot like a presidential debate i cannot wait for november. the

12:20 pm
you see short of calling russia to do more to investigate this case case such as this must have consequences the therefore reserves the right to impose sanctions on the head of the german government angola merkel has been more cautious in her statements she's calling on everyone to wait for the results of a report by the organization for the prevention of the use of chemical weapons the o. p. c. . w. we remembered that germany passed all the information it allegedly has on. to that organization but russia maintains that the 2 countries could cooperate bilaterally on investigating this case i can also tell you that angle marco house visited a like say a volley hospital while he was still there now. in his part continues to maintain that moscow is looking forward and is absolutely
12:21 pm
interested in a joint investigation of the alleged poisoning and this has been moscow's line from the very beginning here's what else the russian foreign minister said. of course we are interested in establishing the truth about what happened with election of only as soon as possible but the situation is outrageous it's exactly the same scenario as in the so-called script palled case where the charges were announced but no facts were presented. and indigenous family in the canadian province of quebec have filed a lawsuit against the hospital after a woman died at the facility while medical staff were caught on camera insulting her joyce passed away last monday at the age of 37 the mother of 7 had been admitted to hospital with severe stomach pains and have had a history of heart problems during her final hours the woman lifestream to

12:23 pm
racism when someone needed help the most this is an example of systemic racism that is simply unacceptable in canada. a nurse another hospital worker who was heard insulting joyce in the video has since i have since been fired back authorities say the woman's death is being investigated by local health agency and the coroner's office the woman's cousin reginald claims that racism is a daily fact of life for indigenous people in a calendar. i can say that joyce's case is unfortunately not unique we're always treated differently and it doesn't depend on whether it's a public service or shop or anything else the problem is that we have systemic racism in all spheres we want justice we want to be treated differently nobody defends us and when we try to defend ourselves we often taken for terrorists or criminals when your community is so small it's very difficult to protest this sad
