5:02 pm
hostilities are now spreading beyond the disputed territory with several towns in azerbaijan being hit according to these arab government it claims that some were struck by missiles or by well meaning speech that he goes down off reports next from the troubled region. things like this one common here in the go and i care about in fact this tiny village alone was battered by 6 massive missiles here is 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 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 the symbol of allegiance of the local government to
5:03 pm
the authorities over menial 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 late say they backtracked saying that it would never target civilians but even if it doesn't even as it doesn't target civilians specifically will 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 . i've lived almost 20 years and i don't want to move away i will work your and stay until the end of my life and he's not the only one and it's the general mood here as people prefer to stay and live in their homes even of bombs fall on their
5:04 pm
heads and we get done of reporting from the disputed region of nagorno-karabakh. the red cross says locals have found themselves in an impossible situation. having a terrible impact on civilian state 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 keep 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 a global coated pandemic we have been helping hospitals in the corner kyra back on request we've helped with emergency medical supplies our teams in the field it's quite restricted in terms of what they can do because of the volatility of the situation because the fighting is intense in places so we haven't actually even
5:05 pm
been able to get out of those and do a full assessment as we as we would like to do but 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 on other assessments the u.n. says that more than 40 civilians have been killed in the disputed region since the fighting broke out just over a week ago a senior advisor to azerbaijan to president give us his views on the escalating conflict. i'm going to. talk to the cold. wars and we have seen. all of this tense i was in the muscle to be able to come. but the exactly 'd happened and the dissidents are. trying to come to the church and. was appropriations. we are concerned by our. show when. people come to this program i have received or i just was in one hour or 2 so
5:06 pm
wasn't sure after that landed after see it was just school in the. local mirror so. severe then opens a new settlement also but you know i think the. government. in israel despite you coronavirus rules banning mass gatherings tens of thousands rallied over the weekend demanding the prime minister's resignation they're angry at benjamin netanyahu handling of the pandemic dozens were arrested reporting next from tel aviv his policy. was well over the weekend we saw tales of thousands of protesters demonstrating against the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu now mass protests are currently
5:07 pm
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. how the local police chief has complained to criticize protesters for using violence against police officers for example throwing eggs we know that $38.00 protesters were arrested in tel aviv alone for the violation of public water and at
5:08 pm
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 the protests is known as the black flags movement and it is to make that there were 100000 people out on the streets of the weekend that think it is difficult to independently verify but what we are hearing from organizers is that this is an historic fateful moment they say that they will not be silenced other organizers threatening. the protests will not be stopped but will instead go until the prime minister netanyahu leaves his post this comes as criticism against the police in the way that they have been handing hope otis also grows we heard from the country's defense minister. the attorney on protesters tonight and in recent days around thinkable demonstrations were held in accordance
5:09 pm
with the guidelines are religious and essential parts of a democracy are calling 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 because parenting 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. tough new covert restrictions are set to go into force in paris surrounding suburbs because of a big spike in cases nationally on saturday france registered 17000 its highest number of daily infections since the pandemic began here's our correspondent in paris. well the announcements came thick and fast on monday with the
5:10 pm
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 doesn't apply to protests if they have got the ability to go ahead now we 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 before it overwhelmed the health system. the measures will be taken for the next 15
5:11 pm
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 band of 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 will close they say that that's going to force young people into drinking at home and that they won't be any health. protocols they owe anybody watching them while they do that and the president of one bar cafe in braz. said the situation
5:12 pm
has been so tough on business owners that many of them now having to take 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 france is 2nd city of mass say 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 now 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 remain open is receiving some sort of preferential treatment so it seems that these covert restrictions are perhaps more controversial than many people would have thought.
5:13 pm
donald trump says he'll be leaving the hospital in just over an hour from now that he's been receiving treatment for the corona virus for the past 4 days the president tweeted a little earlier that he felt great although his doctors warned of a briefing afterwards that he wasn't out of the woods yet in his tweet tromp also told people not to be afraid of the virus despite the fact that more than 200000 americans have died the highest number of deaths in the world on sunday evening trump briefly left his ward to greet supporters outside the water reed hospital traveling in his motorcade the president waved to the crowd outside while wearing a mask however there's still much speculation about the exact circumstances of him falling in the 1st place. 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 in the u.s. after trump's covert 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
5:14 pm
found out on wednesday not on thursday as he said i must sniff more inaccuracy as confusions and conflicting reports the time that is my 1st query of course but that it 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 oh no we were. going to make sure things were reversed live is doing very well there's a fever why but i in my funeral outfit he doesn't have one was the washington post
5:15 pm
had perhaps 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 not see post see she's a good solid democrat then that's the question of intent some of my colleagues are suggesting that trump was in no way super spreta what should we do with such covert criminals look them up of course comes doing notifying people of hickstead gnosis 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. drew knew he had coded 19 traveled in a plain spoken event went into people's faces traveled by never worry anyone that he was exposing everyone in his airspace to go. in peace in the hospital. if trump knew he had killed that 19 of the time who debate to joe biden he should be charged with assault oh speaking of the debate even molony is not as innocent as
5:16 pm
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 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.
5:17 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 trucks 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 he's. calling. thinkers. because you know this is the. right. word just. because. it's like and 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. live from moscow this is still ahead fears of an environmental catastrophe are raised in russia's far east as

5:20 pm
about half of them are police officers the opposition is demanding a new election as the vote was dominated by the 2 pro-government parties both taking $107.00 out of the $120.00 contested seats many claim that the vote was rigged after opposition parties were said to fail to meet the minimum threshold needed to win any seats. central square has previously been the flashpoint of 2 revolutions in 252010 however for the last decade the former soviet republic has enjoyed relative stability. the global chemical weapons watchdog says it's ready to show russia the evidence it requested said to prove novacek was used to poison kremlin critic alexina valmy the o.p.c. w. also says it's ready to send a team to russia to work with local experts on the ground meanwhile the russian foreign minister has hit out of the position adopted by western countries over the case. for the words this is just a mockery of common sense in my opinion it is clear to everyone it is also clear to
5:21 pm
our western colleagues who are denying our request which is based on a binding international convention well here is mentioning a european convention which outlines the rules of international legal assistance in this particular case moscow is outraged by the fact that berlin has already nord 3 requests from moscow for a joint investigation on what happened to the opposition activists alexina vali russia hasn't seen any evidence russian officials were trying to ask for some kind of probe test results they were trying to get access to alexina volley diplomats in particular but none of that how up and vali is. now out of the hospital but the european officials from germany and france in the 1st place keep blaming russia and threatening moscow with sanctions the. quicker and more there
5:22 pm
was very clearly insults and them assassination attempts that was made on russian soil against a russian opponent with a chemical agent in the business in russia. and therefore it is on russia to give indispensable clarification that we will have to draw from the information that russia provides the consequences all its refusal to provide tariff occasion. short of calling russia to do more to investigate this case a 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 oh p c w we remember that germany passed all the information it allegedly has on.
5:23 pm
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 likes a volley and they start a hospital while he was still there now mr allowed in his part continues to maintain that moscow is looking forward and is absolutely 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. scenarios in the so-called script case when the charges were announced but no facts were presented. thousands of dead sea creatures have

5:27 pm
a history of heart problems during her final hours joyce lifestream had treatment in hospital just a warning that you might find the next video upsetting. i was going. to be all. right everybody wanted it or. well that video caused a public outcry with several protest marches in quebec including outside the hospital where joyce died the canadian prime minister addressed the issue in parliament on wednesday the woman's husband claims her death was caused by negligence and racism. but i am here to ensure justice would do is justice with my children justice for my nation i am convinced that systemic racism contaminated jewett hospital and my partner. canadians were shocked to see this video of joyce at your questions final moments what happened was the
5:28 pm
worst form of racism when someone needed help for most this is an example of systemic racism that is simply unacceptable in canada where nurse another hospital worker who heard insulting joyce in the video have since been sacked quebec authorities say her death is being investigated by the local health agency and the coroner another of her relatives says racism is a daily fact of life for indigenous people in canada. 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 event has given energy to the justice for joyce movement it's been much talked
