12:03 am
in 2005 and 10 for the last decade though the former soviet republic has enjoyed relative stability. and to our top story more than a week since a decade's old conflict between armenia and azerbaijan burst back to life a little side of peace on the horizon fighting still raging over the disputed region of no god in a kind of back of conflict scott route stretching back more than 3 decades the region is controlled by ethnic armenians but is internationally recognized as part of azerbaijan has been almost continuous shelling in kind of box capital over the past week here's footage filmed by then we are all meaning defense ministry.
12:04 am
hostilities and now spreading beyond the disputed territory with several towns in azerbaijan being hit that's according to the government claims some were struck by missiles i mean you know there are disputes that accusation hugo's done of reports from the troubled region. things like this one common here in the gorn 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
12:05 am
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 later they 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. it's not going anywhere bush. i've lived here for 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 it's the general mood here as people prefer to stay and live in their homes even of bombs fall on their
12:06 am
heads and i guess done of reporting from the disputed region of nagorno-karabakh. we spoke to the red cross told us locals are far themselves in an almost 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 and 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 global covert 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 can do because of the volatility of the situation because the
12:07 am
fighting is intense in places so we haven't actually even been able to get out of the house 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. of the united nations says more than 40 civilians have been killed in the region since the fighting broke out just over a week ago a senior adviser to was about john's president gave us his views on the escalating conflict. army. fans repeat doctor calls for the to those who are sick and we have seen other patients. all of this tense i once again the most wanted to be able to come to the side but the exactly what happened and. trying to come to the church and home to check on us was appropriations. intensive and share with us at which.
12:08 am
i have received or 'd it just was in our will to souls and i feel that it is the land of pastor cigarettes which are just school. near so those prosecutor office hours are civilian buildings and the poor also but you know i think these are the ones used or feel as if the government has to or are even. in israel despite new coronavirus rules banning mass gatherings tens of thousands rallied over the weekend demanding the prime minister's resignation they're angry at benjamin netanyahu is handling of the pandemic dozens were arrested for forging from tel aviv here's paula. i i. was well over the weekend we saw tales of
12:09 am
thousands of protesters demonstrating 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 violence against police officers for example throwing eggs we know that $38.00
12:10 am
protesters were arrested in tel aviv alone for the violation of public water and at the same time for attacking police offices 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 lose 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 attacks on protesters tonight and in
12:11 am
recent days around thinkable demonstrations were held in accordance with the guidelines are religious and essential parts 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 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 conflict 19 and also they calling out against his corruption charges. tough new code instructions to come into force in paris and surrounding suburbs because of a big spike in. the nationally over the weekend 17000 cases that's the number of daily infections and the start of the pandemic here is our correspondent in paris shot up there with the. well the announcements came thick
12:12 am
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 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
12:13 am
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 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
12:14 am
be any health. the calls they owe anybody watching them while they do that and the president of one cafe impreza. said the situation has been so tough on business owners that many of them now having to take antidepressants 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 down in front 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 musée was put in a maximum so they were told all of the restaurants would have to close there were protests and people going out to the streets who were unhappy with those restrictions but there is a question as to where the paris by allowing restaurants. is receiving some sort of preferential treatment so it seems that these covert restrictions are perhaps more
12:15 am
controversial than many people would have thought. trump has left hospital and returned to work after days of treatment for corona virus in a tweet the president again told people not to be afraid of the. more than 200000 americans losing their lives the world's worst death toll in the pandemic learn so much about coronavirus and one thing that don't let it dominate you don't be afraid of it i didn't feel so good and 2 days ago i could have left 2 days ago 2 days ago felt great we're going back we're going back to work going to be out front and cheerleader i had to do that and i know there's a risk there's a danger but that's ok and now i'm better and maybe i'm immune i don't know but don't let it dominate your lives get out there be careful we have the best medicines in the world. on sunday evening trump briefly left his ward to greet
12:16 am
supporters outside the walter reed hospital traveling in his motorcade the president waved because of the crowd while wearing a mask however there's still much speculation about the exact circumstances of him falling ill with the details here 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 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 inaccuracies confusions and conflicting reports the time that 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
12:17 am
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 going to. vote we're going to make sure things were the 1st lady is doing very well there's a fever why but i and my funeral outfit he doesn't have one was the washington post said 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 then that's the question of intent some of my colleagues a suggesting that trump was a no win super spreader what should we do with such covert criminals look them up
12:18 am
of course comes doing notifying people of this 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. he had coded 19 traveled in a plain spoken event went into people's faces traveled by never worried anyone that he was exposing everyone in his airspace to go. in the hospital. if trump knew he had killed that 19 of the time who debate to do garden 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
12:19 am
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 trojan aspinall from colbert and i just was same our heart goes out to covert. social media platforms even had to step in and take down the thousands of posts wishing trump dead i mean if twittering i would 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. he's in a for the long run he's. calling. thinkers. because
12:20 am
as you know this is this is the right. just. because. it's 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. global chemical weapons watchdog says it's ready to show russia the evidence it requested said prove not the shock was used to poison kremlin critical. they proceed w. also says it's ready to send a team to russia to work with local experts on the ground meanwhile the russian foreign ministers have soured at the position adopted by western counterparts over the case. is their words this is just a mockery of common sense in my opinion it is clear to everyone it is also clear to
12:21 am
our western colleagues who are denying our request which is based on a binding international convention hall 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 like saying a volley in 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 help and the volley 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 if the.
12:22 am
quicker and more there was very clearly an assault and i'm assassination attempts that was made on russian soil against a russian opponent with a chemical agent in the business related 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. for a list learned our. in 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.
12:23 am
to that organization but russia maintains that the 2 countries could cooperate bilaterally on investigating this case i can also tell you that angola markel house visited a likes a volley and the hospital while he was still there and now mr. and 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're 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 it was in the so-called script palled case when the charges were announced but no facts were presented. thousands of dead sea
