A phone tapping scandal and another record high for Greenhouse Gases in the atmosphere. And theyre still growing this by the long downs. Astra zeneca says its developed a covert 19 the vaccine for the world and at a fraction of the cost of others in the pipeline. The british drug maker working with Oxford University says trials show it could be around 90 percent effective. It would cost around 2. 00 and a half dollars a dose and be stored at normal frigid temperatures for 6 months, helping distribution. By contrast, modern or says its experimental vaccine looks to be 94 and a half percent effective. It consists in the fridge for 30 days or a regular freezer for 6 months. The fine is a vaccine on the other hand, well that is said to be 95 percent effective. However, it requires specialist freezing. Both maternal and pfizer will charge at least 20. 00 a dose. Marriott is the Health Policy manager and oxfam. She says the news from astra zeneca and oxford is encouraging. If they do, you really want this to be a vaccine for the world . Then we have to address the elephant in the room and that is the supply issue. We dont have enough supply of this vaccine for the world. And, and, and its true that astra zeneca has with oxford and under Oxford University, its instruction we understand have made more deals with more money factor is to scale up production, but they havent yet done enough. And thats why the peoples Vaccine Campaign is calling for astra zeneca. And in fact, all the pharmaceutical companies to open up their science to share their science and transfer that know how about this, about their vaccines. And they said that we can scale up that production to actually supply the world. But yes, we understand its based on, on one technology and for that reason it is lower cost. But also, as we understand it, Oxford University has put conditions on astra zeneca, not to make a profit, particularly in developing countries for the duration of this pandemic. But we need to see those contracts to be absolutely clear that astra zeneca is not making a profit from this and keeping the price as low as possible. And we need that those same guidelines apply to the other pharmaceutical companies as well. And the other vaccine candidates, the british Prime Minister is confirmed, englands long town will end on december the 2nd, but it will return to a tiered system of restrictions and theyll be tougher than before. But without sensible precautions, we would risk of the virus escalating into a winter or new year. So the incidence of the disease is around us still widespread in many areas. So were not going to replace National Measures with a free for all the status quo ante. Were going to go back instead it to regional tiered approach. Apply the Toughest Missions where good is most, growers dont know how has the details from london. Pulling them now has a much better idea of how things are going to look over the next few months leading all the way up to the spring next year. When the Health Secretary at least, or believes that one way or another Vaccine Technology will lead to a return to normal life, the lockdown will end on the 2nd of december, Boris Johnson has outlined the new tear system of localized regional restrictions that will replace it much stricter than the previous tier system was introduced in october, designed to lock in protect the gains of the lock down, but also to bring numbers down and prevent any sort of winter or springtime surge in the virus. Also to allow for a relaxation of the rules over christmas so that families can spend time together before the to system resumes. After christmas, there is new testing news, mass Testing Available to parts of the country worst affected to allow them to get out of that situation. Into a lower tier and also to alleviate the need for 14 out of the mandatory, 14 day isolation period under the test and trace system. So all of these measures in place now to continue to control and suppress the virus also to hopefully try and protect and boost the economy at the same time, even as yet more positive news about a vaccine. Now 3, in the works of the likelihood, looking more likely than ever that an end to all of this is inside. The leader of forces in ethiopia is Northern Region is denying Government Troops are in the process of surrounding the capital macallan. The government though insists its soldiers are within 50 kilometers of the city. On sunday gave the Peoples Liberation front a 72 hour surrender ultimatum. A Communications Blackout has made claims from both sides difficult to verify. The government began its offensive almost 3 weeks ago. On malcolm webb is following developments from nairobi in neighboring kenya. The government has said its forces surrounded the grain capital, regional capital of mackay, and that there are about 50 kilometers away. That follows an ultimatum given by president by Prime Minister made on sunday. He said he was giving that to Ground Forces 3 days to lay down their arms of head of what he said was a final would be a final assault on the regional capital me kelly. But the bread to breath in gay paree michael, the leader of the to green forces, has refuted these claims. He said that its not true that the citys surrounded. And he said that 3 day ultimatum was actually a cover up on the part of the federal forces. He says are suffering following 3 defeats. So these reports, these claims by both sides completely contradict each other, but its very hard to work out exactly whats going on. Since communications phone lines and internet in that part of the country have been cut off for weeks, sudanese authorities have opened 2 camps to cope with the influx of refugees from ethiopia. Does have a morgan reports from get out of state some of experience life like this before refugee camp in sudans got a lot of state is need too many refugees. But not that has this fight. Her parents fled to the camp in 1085 to escape war and famine back in their home country. If you, shes back to the same old camp. This time with her 10 day old child who she gave birth to while fleeing conflict in ethiopia to greater region. And the more leader i went to america to give birth to my child, but then the fighting started and you had to flee. I gave birth to my child while i was running away to come here. He was born on the road. Now im back to the camp where i was born as a refugee and my new born is at the same camp. Also, refugio was closed in the year 2000, following the return of most of the refugees who once lived in the capital back to ethiopia. But 20 years later, the camp is open again to cope with an influx of ethiopian refugees who started arriving to sudan. 2 weeks ago. All here have escaped from various parts of degree. Nearly 40000 refugees have fled to sudan altogether, following a government offensive on the to great Peoples Liberation front. The offensive was a response to an attack by the front on a military base, which came after months of tension between the Regional Government and the federal government. Taking in a dash of hope not to come back to the camp when he left here, 2 years before it was closed. But he says the fighting has left him with no option. Has a home and how to they are killing us. Integrate. There are people being killed, our own children, bombs are being dropped on buildings. Its sad that many of us are displaced again, but we want to live. We dont want to die and warm. More than 6000 refugees now live in the camp. Its opened less than 2 weeks ago. Even though receiving refugees isnt new for the owner of the number of those arriving here has been increasing so fast that many of them are still without shelter. Access to basic services such as clean water, food and healthcare is also challenging. For many, this place is once again providing them with a refuge. The United Nations says it expects 200000 if you refugees to arrive to sudan in the coming months. If fighting, integrate along with lack of humanitarian access continues. So these Authorities Say the camp has a limited capacity and more camps need to be established. Were urging donors and International Organizations to help us cope with the situation because its very dire. Some organizations are provided aid, but theres too many people for the state, and for a few were going to zation. They need services and they need care, which we cant provide alone. Sudan already has its economic problems. So we need the International Community to help us with this crisis. That has says, she told her children would never live the life she had left. But with 3 generations of refugees in her family, she wonders when the search for a permanent refuge and stability will end. He will morgan aljazeera, get out of state for the corruption trial of former french president Nicolas Sarkozy has been postponed shortly after it began in paris. Sarkozy is accused of attempting to bribe a judge hearings disrupted by the pandemic will start again on thursday. The lawyer for a key figure in the case says, his client is a high risk of contracting covert. 19 has more from paris. Well, the former french president Nicolas Sarkozy, rived in court. He spent a few hours there and then the judge decided to then suspend proceedings and till thursday. Now the reason for this is that one of the code queues, the magistrate his neuer said that he was on able to attend this trial because hes an elderly man with respiratory problems and with the current virus pandemic, it was unsafe for him to be there while the, the judge ruled in the lawyers favor and therefore that is why the trial is being held up until thursday. Nevertheless, this is a very closely watched trial. Indeed, because of course, Nicolas Sarkozy is a former french president. He is somebody who still has a very high profile here in france. He still has a lot of support amongst some conservative voters. He is part of the conservative party, still a little sarkozy is somebody who, during his time in office between 20072012 really carved a reputation for himself as a tough talking president rather ostentatious. At times he was often filled, joking, he married a former supermodel and people in france used to nickname him sarkozy. The american was so close. He was also somebody like to see himself as tough on crime, nor an order president now certainly finds himself on the other side with these proceedings. Also had an aljazeera will tell you to be at the top of presenter, like joe bidens, u. S. Administration. And the childrens lives at stake as International Donors consider the future of afghanistan. But how do i weve got to largely clear weather, dry weather across the Arabian Peninsula at the moment, but to the north. A little bits of pieces of cloud and rain just around the caucasus sea, just spilling out of the black sea, heading towards the caspian northern parts. Auberon could still see one or 2 showers few between as we go on through the next few days.

Cape town, 19 frank assessments if American Public opinion piece betrayed by social media platforms after november. What would be repercussions if you believe that theyre corrosive to our democracy . One obvious solution is to break from an informed opinion, look at his dog anyway. The protesters are going anyway, either its a bullet with a revolution. People in depth analysis of the days global headlines thats really out there on the street inside story on aljazeera. You are on a comeback. Youre watching around the 0 time to recap our headlines now. Pharmaceutical company, astra zeneca, Oxford University, say late stage testing of their code with 1000. 00 vaccine shows its highly effective. They say it can be stored, fridge, temperature, making it cheaper and easier to distribute. But there are questions over how effective it may be in the long term. The leader of forces in ethiopia is no region is denying Government Troops are in the process of surrounding the regional capital macallan. The government though insists its soldiers are within 50 kilometers of the city. The corruption trial of former french president Nicolas Sarkozy has been perspire shortly after it began in paris. Sarkozy is accused of attempting to bribe a judge. Hearings will start again on the 1st day. Weve been destructed by the pandemic now were starting to get an idea of whole take some of the top positions in a joe biden administration. The president elect is expected to announce anthony, blinken as the new u. S. , secretary of state lincoln, as long served as a Foreign Policy adviser and reports suggest Jake Sullivan is being lined up to take on the role of National Security advisor. Hes worked for both biden and former u. S. Democratic president ial nominee hillary clinton, our white house correspondent, kimberly how could, has more on what the choice indicates about the future of u. S. Foreign policy. Or what is clear from these announcements that are to be formalized on tuesday is that its a goal of the biden, is ministration to reframe americas relationships with allies, particularly after 4 years of Donald Trumps america 1st policies. What this will be is a resounding of some familiar global alliances, whether it be rekindled, the iran nuclear deal, whether its the United States taking part in the World Health Organization or even joining the paris climate accord. But there will also be some challenges for a new secretary of state because this is a demoralized state department at the scene budget cuts and even many career diplomats leave. So its not something that will be able to be done quickly, but clearly it is a priority for the incoming biden administration. Sadly, rabia is denying that crown Prince Mohammed bin solomon met with israels Prime MinisterBinyamin Netanyahu. The Saudi Foreign minister tweeted this response after the israeli public broadcast a report to the meeting had taken place. It was said to have included the head of israels intelligence agency, mossad and the u. S. Secretary of state mike pompei of how to force it has more from ramallah in the occupied west bank. The Education Minister said it was a great achievement, despite the semi official way in which it had come out. Netanyahu rival and alternate Prime Minister and defense minister benny gantz was criticizing the us. And you know, for having this meeting leaked out in such a way, the israeli Prime Minister himself was asked about it during that appearance of the israeli parliament. The knesset during which he said that for many years he had never publicly commented on such things that he wouldnt start now. But that he continued to work to expand the circle of peace. So i think the preponderance of evidence, certainly from the israeli side, is that this meeting did take place. It was 1st seen in a flight path of business jet, which has been used by netanyahu in the past, which left israel on sunday evening, went to this future would be high tech resort town that the crown prince of saudi arabia had been. Someone wants to establish on the red sea coast, we know that he was there with the u. S. Secretary of state might pompei o. And if israel had wanted to totally shut this down, it has very powerful censorship laws with which to do so. It was pretty clear that the Israeli Government wanted this to come out, presumably had there had been some kind of cord nation with the other parties involved as well. Despite this denial, coming from the Saudi Foreign minister, israels cabinet has approved a mutual visa or exemption agreement with the United Arab Emirates ministers ratified the treaty which was signed in tel aviv last month. Prime minister Binyamin Netanyahu says he hopes the development will strengthen, economic ties with the u. A. E. , the emirates normalized relations with israel. An organist afghanistans economy is forecast to contract by at least 5. 5 percent this year, largely due to the pandemic. And on top of that, International Aid could also cut back, funding could be slashed by as much as 20 percent. Delegates from about 17 nations are set to make pledges during a 2 day Virtual Conference in geneva. About 4000000000. 00 a year were pledged in 2016 before the pandemic. Now, many governments are instead focusing on financial fallout. Home aid will likely be tied to new political conditions, especially amid ongoing fighting between the taliban and afghan forces. And the withdrawal of thousands of u. S. Soldiers in january, Michael Semple is researcher and policy advisor, arcana, stan, as well as a professor at Queens University belfast. He says the survival of the afghan state entirely depends on the International Community. The talks are under way. There that something which we didnt say last year, there are really 3 power allowed trucks on the international intervention. Afghanistan, theres the military, which weve seen the talk about rapid withdrawal of u. S. Forces, drawing, drawing numbers down to really unprecedented low, low levels. Weve got to the weve got the peace track, which is frustrating. Nobody can give you a, a precise deadline as to when that will deliver an agreement. But then youve got this 3rd struck, which is the development funding. I think by refocusing on the issue of developments on doing ouster several months in which people were just looking at the, the military and the negotiations. Its a reminder, if there is to be a hope of peace in afghanistan, it really is important that the afghan state survives, the afghan state does not produce enough revenue yet to, to pay its way. And a continual continuing problem for the International Community is required, or else it just falls apart. And the Un Childrens Agency says any reduction in aid will hurt efforts to tackle malnutrition from kabul. Funny oh contre 40 reports a year after omar was born, his body started to swell and his mother rushed him to kandahar as hospital for urgent treatment. Pressure doing shit is the death of them. He got missiles now hes feeling better, but doctors told us hes malnourished. And admitted his hearing, this war was over. They did for john and didnt know her son suffers from acute malnutrition. So didnt the mother of 10 month old want to la, who was admitted with diarrhea. Both survived, but the uns child agency. Unicef says nearly 800000 children under 5 suffer life threatening monitor, and nearly 200000. 00 of those cases developed in the 1st 5 months of this year. Most children are covered, so we would have no way of really knowing what happens to 400 or 500000 of these children. Most of these children will die of pneumonia or die riya, that because of death, it is their malnourished state that puts them at risk when they catch something else. And so their deaths will be labeled. Otherwise, unicef says more than 2 and a half 1000000 children face acute malnutrition. The number has doubled within the last 3 years in afghanistan as it suffers rising poverty, violence, unemployment. And the pandemic and International Aid to afghanistan has fallen in recent years. A meat concerns among donors over instability and corruption. Thats left hospitals struggling to cope with the support you. If we lose the support of the International Red cross, we will not even have a bandage to offer the supplies that we get from the government for the entire year are not enough for a month, especially right now because we have more patients than usual out of ghana stands largest Childrens Hospital in kabul. Facilities are limited hair. There are only 2 rooms available for home, morris children. And if there are not enough, theyre all here for the treatment of life threatening conditions like him only out and wanting to head not survive. Units of supplies in a traditional milk to help treat the children. But there is a temporary storage. The situation has been made wars in the country by the spread of call, big 19. Roger countries like afghanistan when they, when they undergo a shock like cold, it is just one shock to many. And we have a huge number of children and you know, very severe malnutrition and we need and then we have to focus on treatment and operation. And its good to do a little bit and thats right now the situation there in terms of treatment. And we just dont have the funds even with talks between the government and the taliban taking place in qatars capital doha. Many are hoping peace may be possible, but many children facing mala, transition and famine will have to survive the coming months if theyre to have a chance to see it. Kabul carter says it has identified the parents of a newborn baby found discarded in the bin in their has hammered international airport. The infants mother then left the country carters Public Prosecution office says its working internationally to have a rested.

Hong kong prodemocracy activists, joshua one has pleaded guilty to Unlawful Assembly during last years protests. He was joined in court by fellow activists agnus char and ivan, lamb 3 will be held in custody until sentencing next week could face 5 years in jail. Last years protests outside the Hong Kong Police headquarters, triggered by the introduction of a controversial extradition bill. Given the pollen is following events in hong kong, the prosecution spent most of the days proceedings, presenting evidence mostly in the form of video footage, showing the events of the night of june 21st 2019. It shows thousands of people who had surrounded the police station, blockading the Police Headquarters for the footage, mainly focused on joshua warren, ivan lamb, and i can this child chanting slogans and calling on the Police Commissioner to come out and face the public. They all have pleaded guilty and could face up to 5 years in jail. Perhaps a foretaste wish me to stay in prison. But i would 1st say that neither person boss, no election bios nor any other avatar apollo would stop us from activists. And this would be the 4th time joshua long. Hes being sent to jail. His 1st prison sentence is back in 2017. He was just a teenager then, but it was also for protest related offenses. Back then he was seen as one of hong kongs 1st political prisoners, and it sends shock waves across the city. But this is a very different hong kong, especially in the past few months where the arrests and detentions of political and democracy activists have become a frequent occurrence. Under the calling you a crackdown against the city is. This is this generation of youve go from protests to prison, to safeguard liberty for the place that we are. All of them have made silas, but we got less 2nd, feis, this is just the latest in a growing number of activists being taken to court for relatively minor offenses. Timing from last years protests since 2091 than 10000, people have been arrested with the least 2000 of the charge for protest related activities. Levels of heat trapping. Greenhouse gases reached a new high in the earths atmosphere in 2019, and theyre continuing to rise this year to the Uns World Meteorological Organization says any long down related 4 will be a tiny blip on the long term graph. The w. M. O. Described the situation is dire. 5 years ago, when c o 2 concentrations hit 400. 00 parts per 1000000 or by 2018, that figure had risen to almost 408. And last year it reached 410. 00 parts per 1000000. The last time it was this high was 3 to 5000000 years ago. And of course, the planet was a very different place over from the World Meteorological organization worked on the report. She says, governments have to do more to curb emissions. C o 2 accumulates in the atmosphere for many, many years. Its not only what you did today or what you did yesterday. Its a wholesome history of human civilization seen. So 70 and 50 when we started in eating soup to brought us to accumulation or the levels at 400 in t. N. As we see down in 2900, if we look at the current emissions in the areas that will be we or somewhere between, lets see, close to 3 degrees by the end of the century, or plus minus half degree. But this is with our current strategies. There is a lot of whole sat through the process of the United NationsFramework Convention for climate change. And the revision or the national chairman, contributions made by the countries will be able to get on the right track am and lets take you through some of the headlines here. Now the syria now pharmaceutical company, astra zeneca and Oxford University, say late stage testing of their code with 19 vaccine shows its highly effective. They say can be stored at frigid temperatures, making it cheaper and easier to distribute. But there are questions over how effective it may be in the long term.
