Thats been fierce fighting over noise as armenia and azerbaijan continue their battle over the disputed mcgoldrick out about creech and these are pictures from the armenian side they show damage from shelling and sophisticate the main city in the goma cutback both sides accusing each other of targeting civilian areas. And this is a recently released video showing a missile attack on the azerbaijani city of ganja the azerbaijani side says on media has also launched attacks on several of its main cities resulting in more than 20 civilian deaths the rights group amnesty says there is growing evidence cluster bombs and now the use of the conflict by more than 100 countries but not by armenia or azerbaijan lets go straight to our correspondents in him because so whos live for us in. Azerbaijan bring us up to date with the very latest on the fighting. Well in the intense fighting has been on the way especially since september 27 especially a couple of days ago several stories of azerbaijan was attacked as are bridge other coups are money or for that last night again some cities important cities especially in a region have been attacked for the region is one of the a decent region surrounding the area and there were some advances in some of the villages a couple of days ago as our bridge our military took control of the some villages and as our bridge on official stated that i. D. P. Settlements for the internally displaced people have been attacked by Iranian Forces in for the region on the other hand yes there are millions side says that step on a carrot. Theyre going to cut a guy has been attacked by the very forces through a strikes and miss hours and people are trying to find safety in refuges and they are they have been actually under the military fire since last sunday as well. The firing of their own city military stepanek cared had actually lost in intensity in yesterday during the day it was quiet but again it to get it intensified at night according to iranian side statement so what sides accusing each other for firing the 1st bullet are many are saying ses it was azerbaijan who 1st started journal official stop official say that it was armenia who violated the over the fragile cease fire and fired the 1st bullet and it was the 1st hours every soldier who got killed when the school is started last july there is a trade off war of words as well alongside the front line but the battle is not only in on the ground in the front lines like the region and other places but also it seems like and they are battle with their own going on going claims accusations for both sides for using cluster bombs. So then because for us in the get severe in azerbaijan. The political turmoil in kurdistan isnt easing the Prime Minister has been replaced by an opposition politician who was freed from jail the day before by protest is widespread Anti Government demonstrations have seen opposition supporters take over most of the capitals government buildings because this is led to the results of sundays parliamentary election being an old following accusations of vote pulling. Lets get straight to that here is. What is the latest on the political situation. Well the chaos continues basically im standing in the square where we saw those protests that were pushed out by Security Forces a couple of nights ago after those elections and all night day we were seeing a sense of unity amongst the opposition today a completely different story there are various different groups various different opposition supporters from different allegiances Holding Meetings in the square today earlier we saw some big groups of various different parties gathering and giving speeches to a larger crowd if you like and they were demanding that a full parliamentary session is held immediately they were demanding that the president be impeached now its important to recognize that their opinions are not universal by any stretch. But the general feeling all of that statement was that it was a criticism of the appointment last night in a parliamentary session of the new Prime Minister this man southern part of who was serving an 11 and a half year jail term for kidnapping until he was freed by his supporters 2 nights ago that particular Opposition Group was saying that that vote was a legitimate illegitimate because there wasnt a full parliamentary session theres room and there are only about 20 m. P. s at that session which was held at a Downtown Hotel because opposition supporters control the Parliament Building to my right. Its an indication once again of the fact that there doesnt seem to be any single story in control of this country in the worrying thing is is that we are beginning to see potential for a major standoff between supporters of this new Prime Minister and those that want of. Parliamentary vote before he is officially made pm of this country an interesting lead the atmosphere in the last sort of hour or so has been it has been increasingly tense and weve been weve heard reports of at least one journalist that was beaten up by supporters of which policy we just dont know so yeah the chaos certainly continues in kyrgyzstan here today. And child it seems some people are now taking advantage of that lack. In government getting the port safe this company that has been broken into. Yes the Coal Companies control or is a canadian owned gold company its the largest gold mine here in this country its fundamentally important for the countrys economy contributes about 8 percent of the g. D. P. Here. Indeed to cool to attacks we understand this morning by a group of unidentified men no damage to the headquarters they were repelled or pushed back by we understand security people at that building but this is not the 1st time weve had an incident like this these incidents have been happening over the last couple of days other gold mining facilities and coal mining facilities in areas of the country have also been attacked by an identified groups of men but whats interesting is that what were hearing now and seeing these are volunteer groups that establishing themselves setting themselves up via social media. Basically placing themselves around the city to prevent looting to prevent vandalism to prevent these on a on identified groups of men causing damage to private property and they were working very hard last night we understand there was a bit of looting the 1st real looting that weve seen this. Since this crisis began with the start the volunteer forces are having to do this work of not look loose is another example of how potentially lawless the situation could become.

Because the Prime Minister has been replaced by an opposition politician read from jail by protest this is always constitutional reform elections within 3 months some base result led to widespread anger was counseled. And as youve been hearing late is the greek far right Golden Dawn Party have been found guilty of running a criminal Group Thousands of protesters gathered outside the court to hear the verdict and police a 5 tear gas to break that demonstrates is. As get more on that story our correspondent John Psaropoulos in athens clearly a strong feeling amongst people about this case its been a Long Time Coming talk us through what was announced by the court today. Well the 2 most important decisions were the guilty verdicts for you i guess the merger of history says he is the man whom security and surveillance cameras captured driving up to the point where the wrap up of the species stood on the device of 17th september 23rd teen expecting evidently a physical altercation with right wing is but not a murder attempt he walks up to him past 2 policeman and stabbed him twice in the chest police seem to have been so confused about what happened that no one intervenes to stop this there was a total of 8 police at the scene at that time and they were even attempted to arrest the murdered man he was still alive and with his dying press he pointed to his killer and told them what had happened and showed the polices wounds and that is why little by gas was arrested that night otherwise police seem to have had no clear understanding of what happened because it happened so force that man has now been condemned as guilty of murder which carries a statutory sentence of life imprisonment here in greece the 2nd very important decision was that all 18 members of the Golden Dawn Party who were elected to parliament in 2012 have been judged guilty of participating in a criminal organization this is the key charge that the government and the prosecutors had banked on in order to put golden dawn away as a group 8 of those 18 and hes our additionally guilty of forming a criminal organization which carries as we understand it a minimum of 10 years in prison after those decisions were made. There was absolute mayhem here outside the courtroom both on this plaza where i saw the mother of the murdered rapper populace faces calling out her sons name and evidently jubilant that the family has been vindicated in this 5 and a half year long legal battle to have not only the merger a person away but also the party that motivated that killing meanwhile sounds of left wing supporters and opponents of golden dawn to my left on alexanders avenue they had shut down this entire section of town. Which cheering. And clearly jubilant at the verdicts to the point where the police felt they had to be dispersed and just moments ago we had clouds of tear gas sweep over this plaza here and stun grenades were going off in our immediate vicinity the crowd has now dispersed but there seems to still to be lots of people in the side streets around us that we can see there is nothing yet resembling normalcy here traffic has been cut off there are people in the streets obviously this is a decision that had been awaited with great fervor for a very long time and it seems to have gone down very well indeed in Greek Society don as well reminding people this was a posse that was in column and for 7 years explain the wider significance of his buttocks. The important thing was not to banish the party the party if it had been banned as a Political Force could have simply changed its name and carried on and stood for reelection also such an approach a political approach wouldnt have got its 18 and hes out of parliament they could have stayed on this independence independent of the original party the important thing was to judge the party guilty of being a criminal organization and a militia in the guise of a Political Party in other words falling foul of article 187 of the penal code it is under that article that they have now been found guilty and that shuts down both the individuals and the organization it doesnt address the ideology of far right the fascism because that is problematic under the greek constitution but it does address the substance of the matter which was not only getting rid of golden dawn from parliament but also making sure they dont reappear a certain extent that goal had been served in the latest election when the party did not make the 3 percent popular vote threshold in order to enter the chamber of representatives so they do not have seats in parliament anyway but this is also illegal vindication and safeguard that they cannot come back they cannot stand for reelection certainly not the condemned individuals and certainly not that Political Organization that is known as golden door so the party i would say the significance of todays decision is the party has been defeated both politically in the latest election and now legally as well.
