Authorities in ethiopia have arrested the mind 1000 people during recent unrest that followed the killing of a popular musician thats according to the state run Human Rights Commission which said the violence has killed 178. 00 people since june critics now worry that the country might be sliding back towards repression Prime Minister ahmed came to power in 2018 promising democratic reform bus he said to face growing ethnic tension over land and resources that. Government is. Going back to. At a feast made pets. Out of. Detaining people profile investigation yet out of a protracted period that had detained. Lets get more on this now from of zeros Catherine Sawyer whos following events from nairobi tell us more about what this human rights report details. Well this is a very. Specially coming from the countrys all Human Rights Commission and that report that says that on the 1000. 00 people have been arrested have been detained since last month one of those people the report is talking about is an activist who was pulled out of bed on july the 8th night by Security Forces while he slept. Beside his pregnant wife we also know that jour muhammad another very popular political activist an Opposition Leader is also in custody has appeared in hes appeared in court several times and hes in custody alongside thousands of other part testers of political activists and journalists as well and this report as you mentioned is primarily focused on the incidents that happened last month following the death of this very popular musician whose music also had political messages he was shot in are the survive and then sours of people took to the streets to protest they wanted him to be buried in the capital addis the government said no because of security reasons and that he should be buried in his or village in the. A region and people are very upset with that these protests went out of hand. More than a 100 people were killed buildings and businesses were destroyed in august and a region as well and weve also i had in the last few weeks from other human rights organizations Like Amnesty International who. Commission officials of ominous international are also seeing the very worried about this trend theyre seeing in ethiopia now it seems that the government of Prime Minister are the on that is taking the country back to those days of repression with Security Forces using very high handed tactics to deal with dissent and also especially coming after you know i. Promised in 2018 that hes going to lead a democratic country and hes going to respect the human rights and freedoms of the people of ethiopia Adrian Catherine many thanks indeed of 0 as catherine sort of reporting from nairobi i will oh is a senior lecturer in law at kill university and an analyst covering the horn of africa he joins us now via skype from london so in 2018 Prime Minister when the nobel priests peace prize 2 years later and 9000 people are arrested for exercising their democratic rights to protest what are we to make of this. Its a tragedy its its unfortunate the man who has been loaded globally the person delivery going to standing sort of turn around. And now became the. African dictator literally visiting the entire political opposition including the very people who brought him to power are resting in daily Opposition Leaders. Going to go to buffalo on the all of it as congress individuals leading the automotive liberation front there are of course going to parties people like linda to a yell you know these are all d leaders of Political Parties who have done nothing except to. Democratically contest. Hold abuse creep power but unfortunately the man who promised change in transformation in it you have to have them be any particular way would be extremely intolerant to a position he has now begun to put institutions to follow and it just this one was his own political interest and its very unfortunate what is how things have changed in such a short bit of time has the Prime Minister changed do you think or has he always been as he you say that he takes a very dim view of any opposition and is the country sliding back towards authoritarianism. Oh absolutely and i think the last one year later how do very consistent patents impact its and decisions that have been taken by his administration very clearly again want to straightening that he thinks that the only person who understands to press problems who could fix it to appear in the way that he sees it in his view this is a process where other stakeholders who have significant following in the country good to hear the particular the or if you have been a history particular understanding of what you have got used today and what it should be in the future he basically trying to implement that by sure you look force he used a constitutional mechanism entirely to postpone the election indefinitely and now its the money for the government coming close to expiring he has arrested and jailed on political opposition and dragging them before courts in the process of that means to me committed by political consideration what you know. He talked a lot about her mother a consolation in bringing people together. To 2 shows he had tried to reform some legislation brought opposition from abroad to the country but now he has a big plea out rested all the people he has to really do the past including those who were abroad and allowed to return to the country essentially eliminating a very credible and a viable opposition to him not only at home but also d abroad i think now with what we know now looking back even those progress made if that gets taken where basically its to to new maneuvers for him to get the support of people at a time when he didnt have enough support internally to do control the military didnt were told the Political Party that runs the country now he used that goodwill by people in broadly ill say this world because of those pows if you look and then he used that to consolidate his power and i think you know feels confident and there is no reason to respect the law to spark schools to challenge them and those principles. That he has promised could talk to so many thanks indeed. In kill turkeys president says the talks are the only way to resolve an oil and gas disappears in the Eastern Mediterranean athens and ankara a locked in a tense standoff over turkeys Energy Exploration it escalated this week with the arrival of a Turkish Research vessel accompanied by warships greece claims part of the area is of its Continental Shelf and says the turkeys action is illegal to dismiss the objection saying they have no legal basis france has sent 2 fighter jets of the navy frigate to the area as tension rises meanwhile both greece and turkey according to the issue to be raised at an even sing on friday. I thought is not were going to hear Michael Scott of the risk of an accident when so many military assets are gathered in such a contained area the responsibility lies with the one who gives rise to distant kind of stances where remained firm in our commitment to International Legality and the power of diplomacy to resolve even the most complex issues we will never be the one situation yet selfrestraint is only one aspect of our power no provocation will go on and said we have demonstrated that we will respond if necessary and we will do so again if it is required what then is the truth. The past for a solution in the Eastern Mediterranean is dialogue and negotiation a formula based on a win win solution that protects the rights of all can be found if we act with common sense and reason busy greeces attitude in the aging and the mediterranean is malicious. Im serious Charlie Angeles following this from london charlie why is this standoff particularly concerning. Well i spoke to an ex greek naval commander earlier who said that yesterday a greek and turkish frigate had actually been involved in a minor collision so the fear is that in such a crowded sees something as innocent as an accident could be interpreted as aggression and this could deteriorate into Armed Conflict of course this is all about oil and gas the Eastern Mediterranean has become somewhat of a gold rush in recent years after israel and egypt found large deposits there and on monday when that turkish ship when tend to carry out Seismic Survey over greek waters it was flanked by those 5 turkish warships the greek coast guard have put in repeated calls to their ships asking them to turn around and to leave that zone but those calls have been ignored so you heard the greek Prime Minister that saying that he would be deploying his own armed forces and calling on allies to help france perceiving that call sending in its own naval warships and 2 fighter jets so theres obviously a lot of military hardware going into a very contained area president and saying that he is but you heard open for negotiation negotiation but saying that no country will take away turkeys rights and hes referring to those over the last thing the Maritime Claims on the territory that turkish ship the site carrying out the Seismic Survey is under a u. N. Law in turkey in greek waters at the moment but turkey never signed that u. N. Door because i think its inherently unfair that because of greeces very scattered job graphy they are awarded 71 percent of the aegean sea whereas turkey only gets 8 percent so what greece is options well theyve called on the e. U. For help theyve got that emergency summit being convened on friday and athens is really pushing for some strong sanctions against ankara but turkey is such an important partner to the e. U. That its unlikely that theyll be willing to put sanctions on. In them in fact most countries effectively see this is a bilateral disagreement between greece and turkey so greece is going to have to be not being very hard for a united diplomatic solution we know that theyre trying to seek some International Support greeces foreign minister is currently in israel and tomorrow he will be meeting u. S. Secretary of state mike peo and will no doubt be bringing up this subject but luckily as we heard both sides are open to dialogue open to negotiation but until those warships leave those and that constitute aljazeera charlie anslem reporting live from london many thanks charlie joining us from london is wolf pickle the managing director of Political Risk advisory ateneo he joins us from london as we say good to have you with us wolf so president obama says that hes open to talks in fact thats the only way to solve this dispute but to have successful talks you need a mediator who would that be. Well difficult to say at this point adriane the u. Is not in the position to do that for obvious reasons is not an objective partner. And the u. S. Is simply not interested what we have seen when we had in other is kellys the most recent one at the end of july it was im going to marry killed doing that on the phone calls to bring back some common sense here but that is why overall i think here are the least of an outright confrontation remains low but certainly a solution of the matter remains a funny way because france sending a frigates and helicopters to the area of course france and turkey both members of nato you say that the chance of a full scale escalation into some sort of military conflict is low why do you think that. Because at the end of the day none of the accomplice involved has got an interest in going died that action. Hes already destroyed in syria and libya that to his cat and see is a fairly shaking these days because he said her votes count both greece and turkey and they are trying to make their mark the what is left of the Summer Season the Greek Economy again has been bought there over the last any errors so there is no interest i think theyre what theyre the one is trying to do is a control discoloration that over city or east when you are trying when you are putting lots of made up to be out of the way are in it in a smaller area but but again that east of the its got an 18 to what could be a conflict in my view remains very very low as our correspondent was saying its being seen by many as a bilateral issue here but if it came to the go ca sions who would keep the negotiating with greece or the e. U. Well i will say 1st of all that this this is not in the long goodbye laterally surely towards traditional in the past that their internal disputes india in the east med in the past were mainly between going to use cyprus and turkey now you have counties the counties are as far as a as far as away as a gulf involved there is egypt that is israel the United Arab Emirates has been supporting greece in these allies so is a mouth people regional actor or c involved in that is why i think it it was difficult at the start to play to find a solution when there were only 3 players is even more difficult now even if their reality the end to a day is that all these countries will benefit from when agreement not to mention here that they will approach it of exploiting these ghastly sources in the east med is actually becoming more and more questionable from the Commercial Point of view given their low prices of gas pollution that will be in you know to worse a Green Economy so a bit longer they wait to find the solution they hire the easier these ghastly sources will actually not be exploited really good start here wolf many thanks indeed to wolf because theyre from bottom. This is the news hour from out 0 still to come on the program the philippines plans to start Clinical Trials for a russian Coronavirus Vaccine and president were griego to is expected to be inoculated. Plus the latest from a mozambican town thats become a battleground between the military and on groups. And Major League Soccer leaves its bubble and lets some fans back in to watch games jill be here with the details a little later. Parliament has approved the state of emergency in beirut it was declared by cabinet to last weeks explosion but had to be ratified by m. P. s after 8 days there have been days of protests calling for a complete political overhaul in love and demonstrators a furious of politicians for what they see is inaction added trenched corruption last weeks explosion killed more than 200 people lets take you live out of beirut aljazeera but it smith is the how important but it is International Pressure on lebanons government right now. Well we might get an indication of that and in the coming 24 hours weve got on friday morning tomorrow morning javid zarif irans foreign minister arriving in beirut the current caretaker cabinet is dominated by around backed hezbollah and its allies and of course hezbollah is an armed group and tonight we have david hale arriving the u. S. Undersecretary of state for Political Affairs of the u. S. And iran have a clear interest in what happens next in iran the u. S. Has said he david hale will stress the urgent need for fundamental economic financial governance reform and an end to enjoying corruption its the u. S. And its western allies can unlock the billions of dollars in money that lebanon needs to rebuild beirut but its been make clear to them by david hale by Emmanuel Macron previously that unless they end the dominance of hezbollah in irans cabinet that money is not going to be forthcoming its why iraq is why going on the cabinet has been essentially isolated since the beginning of the year when it was sworn in iran of course has a great interest in keeping control here in lebanon through hezbollah and hezbollah has weapons u. S. Has the money has ball has the current political control so now youll see this talk of love the tug of war as the lebanese try to come up with some sort of cabinet that can get the money they need but iran will be putting on the pressure because it will not want to lose influence here how much support does have in lebanon its federal election tomorrow and it was a lection. A normal one that doesnt have to take in lebanons complicated electoral structure where would where would hezbollah end up. Well. That is an extremely difficult answer to get because the current electoral system only gives you an indication of how based on sectarian votes the votes would go as bollock of course has support in lebanon and in parts of the country and its allies but its impossible to say how how they would do without that but everybody recognizes that the country has been isolated because since february the cabinet is dominated by hezbollah and its allies and the people we see protesting are people who. Who have their homes destroyed by the explosions will tell you that they want an end to this political paralysis and they want an opportunity to leaven on to recover and they want to sort of some sort of major reform that will end the dominance of all the political elites who sort of run this country in the into the ground the last 304050 years its not only has baller and its allies that are responsible for this its plenty of other pro western groups as well as all shared out pie between them while the lebanese people are the ones whove been ground into the ground ground into that aljazeera has been at smith reporting live from beirut but of many things days of school in gaza run by the uns Refugee Agency has been damaged in Israeli Military strikes the Palestinian Education ministry has condemned the attack which came on the 3rd consecutive day of bombardment the school was empty at the time been no reports of casualties israel says that its been targeting hamas facilities in response to the group launching balloons laden with incendiary material. A Senior Leader of the Muslim Brotherhood has died in egypts notorious school paean prison in cairo he was 66 and son was a doctor an m. P. And a Founding Member of the Egyptian Organization for human rights he was arrested in 2013 after the revolution of remain in jail until his death was shelved reports whats significant about dr samadi on is that he is somebody who now was one of the icons of the Muslim Brotherhood not just within egypt but also internationally he was the Spokes Person for the group he was one of the few who could speak english amongst its leadership and therefore made a lot of media appearances there he was seen to be more of the quote unquote liberal wing of the Muslim Brotherhood he was somebody who was also very vocal against the Hosni Mubarak regime as well and actually when the journey 25th protests took place he was one of the few who encouraged the Muslim Brotherhood followers from the 1st 2nd to actually participate in those protests against the. Against the rule of mubarak obviously when the coup took place and he was a member of Parliament Prior to that he went into hiding for a couple of weeks only to be. Hounded by the Security Forces of these or at least of the military that time was in control and therefore was then arrested and has been in jail since there were calls from his family for the past few months for medical attention to be given to him however they were not reciprocated by the authorities an ultimate lee he met his fate as did other Muslim Brotherhood leaders whilst they were in jail several countries across europe are reporting a surge in corona virus infections france is seeing its highest number of cases since restrictions were eased inmate in spain the government says the 675 active outbreaks well germany has its highest increase of cases in 3 months has done it came reports now from berlin. Here in germany theres a great deal of concern about the way that these new infections are manifesting themselves because the mantra from ministers has been that it is people coming back from high risk areas tourists who travel to other parts of europe and unwittingly brought the infection back with them and yet actually paradoxically the majority of new infections taking place in germany take place inside germany elsewhere in those countries france the new infection rate is twice as large as it is in germany and certainly you see in cities the capital city for example in paris where the requirement for mask wearing is back in place but also separately the organizers of the paris marathon the marathon event which would normally attract many tens of thousands of entrants well they werent planning to have to stage the event until november and already theyve said that cannot take place and then of course in spain you see several regions there where the flare up of corona continues apace and from the german perspective looking at spring we know that the German Government has said that there are 3 regions where it is highly advising its citizens its residents tourists from germany not to go there where there will be the need for some form of quarantine when they come back or indeed a negative test. The summer heat wave has come to a crashing halt in many parts of europe his tell us more is mutual just everson folks yeah hi a. J.

Leave nonsentient this one to adrian seem wales resource a big lightning crashes going on here and in london well horizontal rain very strong winds violent storms coming through here large hail as well and up into scotland into the central islands and folks we have seen the flooding and those are going to be the concerns as we go right through the weekend as i said the heat is ebbing away 28 celsius this afternoon and then we go into the next few days me back closer to normal so 24 celsius thats down 10 degrees and sort of values that weve been seeing over the last 6 days similar values to go on into saturday that he pushing across germany in supposedly and over towards the baltic states.

Of Lebanons Parliament has approved a 14 day state of emergency and a ruse that was to plant by capital its up to last weeks explosion but had to be ratified by and he says. The philippines is planning to start crew Clinical Trials of a russian Coronavirus Vaccine president rodrigo the tatay wants the tests to start as soon as october and hopes to have the job himself by may the philippines has recorded the most covert 1000 infections in east asia over the past week from doing strict to lockdown measures in and around the capital al jazeera as general allen duggan reports from manila. There are reports coming in just today that there will be simultaneous Clinical Trial in manila and also in moscow reports coming in that around 300. 00 to 3000. 00 will be tested or tried here in the philippines but also even government officials admit that and admit that actually they dont really know when this is going to happen they just have to decide how and when they will implement it and it comes as no surprise also the president would be good that there does been turning to his favorite allies over the past few months when it comes to help coming from the outside world when it comes to dealing with the crew of the virus pandemic in the philippines during his state of the nation address about 2 weeks ago he himself admitted in his speech that the appeals to chinas xi jinping basically to make the philippines a priority should the vaccine be made available here and then monday he said that hes going to make himself a sample or at least a hes going to offer himself as a as a volunteer for the Clinical Trial should there be something coming out of russia but what this is is basically a a sign that the situation in the philippines is growing desperate that this fight with the world this and strict world strongest the strictest lockdowns ever implemented the number of coded cases continue to go up it is now the epicenter of tokoroa in a virus infections in Southeast Asia at the moment it is the country with one of the Fastest Growing coronavirus outbreaks in the world now india has reported its highest number of infections in a single day 67000 new cases bringing its total to nearly 2400000 official figures put the number of deaths more than 47000 but Infectious Disease experts say that the country is still months away from hitting its peak elizabeth pronto reports now from new delhi on how the pandemic is affecting childrens education. Yes again another single highest day rise and we also know that one of the reasons that the numbers are going up is because india is testing more than it ever has its continuing to increase testing as well as the single highest. India also conducted its highest ever number of tests more than 800000 so that it has a better idea of the spread of the infection in the country because remember that needed 2400000 confirmed cases is thought to be a fraction of the real number of cases the serial logical surveys which have been done around the country show that the real number is many times the confirmed number now the big headline when it comes to coronavirus in the country today is that a man who shared a stage with Prime Minister in the last week at the inauguration of a temple that indias most controversial religious site in a place called. Where. The 16th century mosque in 1902 he has tested positive for the coronavirus he is the head of the temple and he was seen spending the whole day with Prime Minister that in there morty and some of the most prominent leaders political leaders in the country. Under this road building site is a makeshift Learning Center a stroll hot with the children of this impoverished east neighborhood come for free classes. University student. Who has been holding these classes for needy 5 years he says lessons have become even more important since indias government shut down to 5 months ago to stop the spread of the coronavirus. Went online classes started many children didnt graduate. And even if somehow they didnt have the facility to charge because this is about 526000 people. Yes around 100 students regularly attend english math and science classes taught by south korea and 6 others who are helping him what they are today i really like the classes because i really like the teacher he teaches us very well but in the but they dont want to we wouldnt be able to study without these classes and our education would deteriorate our brain to. Such anger and the students are from one of the many neighborhoods of the capital where everyone lives in temporary shacks with little or no access to electricity some students have walked half an hour from other neighborhoods to attend these classes and thats because theyre from some of the 92 percent of indian homes which dont have Internet Connections and compasses. Some states are doing better than others at bridging the Digital Divide the Southern State of catalan has set up temporary classroom for students who cant watch the local governments precourt Classes Online or on television are up at my desk these online classes are very easy to understand and if theres anything we dont understand then teachers here help and guide us we like it a lot. Classrooms are open throughout the state even in vermont tribal regions but catalog which has always had one of the best Education Systems in the country is an exception. Experts warn that millions of other indian children are going to be left behind because of the lock down. This Digital Divide much larger however. Extremely drastic emergency call on the need in the name of government in the name of Internet Service providers and also in the name of device we need subsidy. We need subsidy on connectivity.

Faces linked to i saw have taken control of a port town in all the mozambique is the 3rd time this year that muslim boy the prior as been seized the town is an important part of a 23000000000 dollar natural gas project which is run 60 kilometers away Security Forces say theyve killed 59 members of an armed group whove been trying to occupy the area over the past week for the middle reports from johannesburg. There is a muslim beacon military presence in that area but this is also an army that is under funded doesnt always have enough resources at hand and so when this attack took place it carried on over a number of days and this is also when the muslim beacon army said that they killed at least 59. 00 of these fighters but ultimately the the army was pushed back and the fighters linked to isis to control of the town we do know that the mozambique and the government has used private Security Companies to try and assist in trying to keep these fighters outside of this territory it hasnt always been effective in this particular case the private company mercenaries even had dropped ammunition but too far from this particular site to assist the muslim beacon of soldiers a quick you know ultimately this area was lost to these fighters linked to iceland of course it continues to be of great concern because it seems as if these attacks are escalating theyve been going on since 2017 and this year alone according to the United Nations theyve been at least 28. 00 attacks and that was it just at the beginning of the year and now it appears as if these fighters are gaining more territory in in an area that is of importance to the mozambique government given the massive gas reserves offshore that amount to at least 60000000000. 00 a journalist in zimbabwe accused of mobilizing antigovernment protests has been barred from publicly testifying about his harsh prison conditions Hopewell Chin or was arrested last month of serious head of a tussle reports from harare.
