Azerbaijan plus. A month ago a career in florida would be looking at why former felons have to fight so hard to earn their right to. Begin in france where vigils are being held in honor of 3 People Killed on thursday and an attack at a church a nice people have been leaving candles and flowers at the gates to the citys not the sort of care earlier bells rang out at churches around the country the suspects in the attack is in custody investigators say hes from tunisia and arrived in europe last month on the italian island of lampedusa well david chase here is live for us in nice david just bring us up to speed in terms of the investigation. Yes most of what we know now about the 21 year old to new zealand refugee who made this attack has come from the the chief antiterrorism prosecutor and hes revealed that we saw we brought him we saw we used 21 managed to get into produce from tunisia in the september event appeared here in nice we dont know exactly what happened in between apart from the fact that he was in the port italian port of bari on board an asylum ship and apparently he did put in a request for asylum that was turned down and then he disappeared until he reappeared again and was caught in the cameras of the Railway Station here changing his clothes before he walks the 400 yards or so to this basilica by me and norms to his attack but there is of course one other. One other development which is of course that the 47 year old man has been arrested here by police. Thought to have started the flies thought to have provided a mobile phone to the knifeman lets hear though what the chief prosecutor of the antiterrorism unit. Or young does is it him or you could given the nature of these acts committed against people targeted for the sole reason that they were present in the church at the time or so the procedure employed and in particular the nature of the injuries inflicted on certain victims the national n. T. Terrorism prosecution open investigation on the following charges it into the cess nation and assess the nation in the connection with terrorist enterprise and criminal association with a view to committing crimes of material nature against people. Ok david so that is the situation with the investigation and the attack what more do we know about the victims. Well thats right so thats why so many people have been coming here lighting candles laying flowers. Mounting a vigil outside the basilica to give comfort to the the grieving relatives of the victims so who were these victims now the 70 year old woman who was nearly empress when she was attacked and almost completely decapitated we dont know her name except she was 70 years old so we still have no more details about that washee entirely on her own we dont know does she have any close relatives we dont know that could be a particularly tragic case then there was the other body that was found by Police Inside the basilica it was called a van saw. He is apparently is the father of 2 daughters aged 21 and 25 hes worked as a warden here for the last 7 years and was widely loved and respected so all the prayers behind me will be going to those victims and to their families even though a 70 year old woman who is new to get updated we dont know anything about her her name or her family yet. But i thank you for that update there david chase is live for us and nice. Health ministers from across the European Union have been meeting to discuss a surge in coronavirus cases they are grappling with how to limit the spread which is expected to worsen during the winter the rapid rise in infections is already putting a strain on hospitals e. U. Leaders have agreed to Fund Transfer of patients across borders to ease the burden for the 260000000. 00 is being made available lockdowns are also being reimposed in france and germany to help stop the spread but its angered many like these people in paris they came out to protest against a month of being confined to their homes now to talk about why has this update from paris. Midmorning here in falls would normally be crowded with people taking their Morning Coffee maybe preparing to have some lunch in a short while but restaurants are closed balls everything really except for essential shops so people can still buy essential items and go to the pharmacy there is a little bit more flexibility than the 1st time around the 1st locked out that began in march in the schools will reopen next week off to the Holiday Season here so children will be able to continue their education that is something that the french government say is absolutely essential in order to provide an equal opportunities in all children in france so they can continue to go to school but children from the age of 6 will have to wear mosques in the classroom up until now its only been from the age of 11 now the government of course is hoping that so this measure which seems seems drastic to some 2 lockdowns in one year the government typing though that is going to be able to stem the spread of the coronavirus weve seen very high infection rates over the last couple of weeks some days 50000 people 50000 new cases of current virus infection experts saying its likely to be much much higher because there are also many asymptomatic cases hospital i. C. U. Beds across the country well hoff already full and the government had warned that if the situation continues and these numbers continue to rise they would be full extremely soon and that is why theyve decided to take this step but not everyone thinks is a good idea of course and some say the government really should have better prepared for this 2nd wave. Founded by psychologist dont endorse and explains how the public might react to another lockdown. Well initially in england as as in many other e. U. Countries we locked down out of fear and i think fear can only motivate you for so long and then what kicks in after youve eroded your supply of compassion for other people is selfpreservation and because weve got 2 factors here weve got the government trying to protect General Health and then also trying to protect the economy so theres a seesaw effect they rush to do one and then after a while they rush to do the other so you end up with a lot of contradictory rules an unclear a plan and a lack of understanding of where were all going with this we know now what lockdown is like so were loath to go back into it people are also thinking about their Mental Health about their jobs about their very survival their education and i think when the 1st 2 months locked down east in this country people then started to question the rules and think well you know theres been you turns contradictions misunderstandings there have been politicians who have misled the way by themselves breaking the rules people have decided i think that theyre going to make sense of it themselves and that they are going to use common sense to help them survive and if that means in their minds mixing without a mask as some people are doing then then so be it i think weve lost the fear of it because unless you know somebody whos died very close to you it doesnt seem real and you become numb to the kind of continual doom and gloom thats being laid ladled out every day on the news explosions have been seen on the outskirts of step on a Coast Capital of the disputed region of nocona kind of buck. Immediate Officials Say their military is blowing up ammunition there too as area phillips is suggesting buckaroos forces are close to the city fighting in the region has intensified in recent days diplomats from the 2 countries have been preparing for more talks to try and end the conflict after 3 failed ceasefire attempts. But far away as a by johns army is said to be closing in on the key town of show she now going to separatist leader is very troops have advanced to within 5 kilometers and is people there to help resist the attack. Was sure she has long a played a pivotal role in the dakota conflict that overlooks the regional capital step upon a current standards from there that azerbaijan shelled the city in the 1st nagornokarabakh war it also sits on the main highway connecting media to step on a cats Hoda Abdelhamid has more from the is there a capital bucko. There hasnt been any official announcement about shoeshine was the situation as it by john called that town shusha now i did speak to a Top Commander in the as area army and he did not confirm that the army was on its way to say he did not deny it either what he did say is that its no secret that sooner or later the as ery army would be heading there and trying to capture that city now but if you look at the reality on the ground a few days ago as of adjourn announces wasnt cool but like you butler is south of the achaean corridor which is key for the resupply of the border karabakh and its also west of shusha from from go badly its very easy to do to reach both areas and if you look at also what has been happening over the past few weeks well theres area army has been advancing quite at a quite steady pace so as this Top Commander said he said well sooner or later we will be there now its a matter of figuring out how soon is soon and how late is late but that is certainly the final the final game here because also the situation if you look to the north of the nagornokarabakh well as are but john is already in control of the highlands there so once they get to delight jim kor door and to shoot it puts armenia in a very difficult position. Talons has more now from here of on and on media. Well things are clearly not going well for the armenian side of the moments with as you say those bits of information that the targeting of ammunition around the vicinity of subversive groups is the armenians have put it of. Forces Azerbaijani Forces presumably pretty near stefana kurds and used to pay off 5 kilometers outside shushi now she she. Symbolic and a strategic. Important city for the Azerbaijan Forces to take used to be the main center of their real life in the corner karabakh and crucially it is only 10 kilometers outside of step panic on that vital road that links the panic curts with in armenia down through the lashing corridor or so if the Azerbaijani Forces are able to take shushi it will give them the ability to launch artillery attacks panic and give them a vital win for the home front audience as well.
