Count. But he still refusing to concede and going it alone. A report from a remote region of afghanistan where local troops are trying to maintain security without the help of u. S. Forces. Pull over on thousands of farmers are out marching in the indian capital, new delhi. They are protesting against laws, which they say will affect their livelihoods. Were looking at live pictures. In fact, here, the deli, how do you run a border . I mean, quite chaotic scenes there, the sheer number of people who have marched here, some of them actually as far as 200 kilometers to get to the capital. Others have been stopped by border blockades. Are they calling for the government to roll back laws that removed, guaranteed minimum prices for their progeny . Elizabeth parama delhi correspondent on the line now. So as we look at these pictures with explain to us whats been going on. A breakthrough, i believe, for the farmers in so far as they are allowed to protest. How come i say after the 2 days of thousands of foreigners from the state neighboring delhi, we have had something of break through local media. And the main problem is the union and india, the all india case, and fungus cordon consent funders, coordination committee, telling us that delhi police will now be escorting many farmers who have been trying to come to delhi, to a, to a ground in east delhi to carry out their protests there, now its being 2 days, all state borders being closed because delhi police didnt give these farmers permission to come. So i think the record high number of corona virus cases. And in those 2 days, we have seen extraordinary scenes of new, large numbers of farmers gathered at various borders and also in the power and police who have water cannon and tear gas. And if you believe removing police barricades, throw them believe that the bridges lethal scenes on friday morning the bombers do use and try to remove the truck which politically using as barricades. And so now we are hearing that they will be allowed to come. 5 to one part of delhi to protest not to the center as they wanted to. Will that be enough for them . Were not quite sure yet, but they are socially secure and to get here to make their opposition to these follows. 7 known in the capital, so they carrying on with the protests, undeterred by the even though there is so i believe a 2nd round of meetings between the unions and the governments due to happen. They are a commodity. And that is because again, there is so much opposition to these laws. d and this is a huge issue in india because of. 6 the high point 3000000000, people who work in the Agricultural Sector and many unions believe that the 1st round of talks which took place that they didnt result in anything. They said that the government isnt serious the way they pushed through the doors. They say that they did it without any consultation, and as with the door, is that they are going to loosen the rules around pricing around storage, around the same rules that are protected from the market for decades. And some of the concerns that these new york are going to take away guarantee for their cause. Are they going to leave them at the mercy of private investors . They dont believe the government when the government says that the minimum support price is going to remain. And thats why theyre actually being many farmers have been holding protests locally in punjab that theyve decided to bring them to the capital. Now, despite a 2nd round of things taking place with government ministers, all of those about per annum about up from new delhi. Thank you. The live pictures weve got here from the delhi high on the border of these thousands of families who have been on the march towards new delhi. As it has been telling us they are now allowed to protest on the escort with the police. But there has been so in the other pictures, water cannon being used and barricades being put up trying to stop these protesters from reaching new delhi. Well keep an eye on the stories that develops during friday. On to other news in the funeral, all football legend, Diego Maradona, has been held at a cemetery in argentina as capital. There was a heavy security presence as a body was taken from the president ial palace, a solvent lining the route to watch. The reports now from intissar is on the final farewell for a man who transcended the sport which made him famous. The funeral cortege carried Diego Maradonas coffin to the cemetery where he was laid to rest alongside his parents, the streets, lined by tens of thousands of fans saying ideal to a great for a national hero. The loss was felt across the world. For us, diego was a terminal for a whole life. He led argentina to the top. Its difficult for everyone. Ive seen newspapers in france and in england, they all talk about him. Its incredible. However, the chaos that blighted much of marathoners life spilled into events, marking his death fans clashed with police after the gates to the Government Palace where he was lying in state closed, denying them the chance to pay their last respects with his death has come the opportunity to reflect on what diego matter dont they gave to the world of football to this neighborhood to argentina . The answer for many is everything. They created shrines of football grounds where he played a bookie juniors and here the continues juniors grounds named after him, where he began his professional career as a 15 year old in 1976. Wood. Diego is the people, hes the people, its what he most identified with.

Could see that they applauded here and across argentina in naples and barcelona, and around the world marathoner in the demons, he battled the day, the day go to for his magic, his vision and ability to excite and inspire live on in his fans. One of cyrus u. S. President donald trump says he will leave the white house if the Electoral College confirms the victory of president elect joe biden. But trump said it would be a mistake if biden was confirmed and added it would be quite difficult to concede. Trump repeated his unfounded claims about the election being stolen from him because of fraudulent votes. Remember joe bidens inauguration set to take place january 20th in dealing from all of this. Oh my god, you know, they just show you. Certainly it will certainly, and you know that, but i think that there will be a lot of things happening between now and the 20th of january. Mike hanna, has more on this reporting from washington. Certainly its the 1st time as well that President Trump has explicitly said that he will leave the white house should as this is expected, the Electoral College confirm the president elect biden as the countrys next president. Now, president saying that hes still not going to concede, insisting that theres a lot of battles still to go continuing to insist with no evidence whatsoever that the election was fraudulent. But all of that ends affectively when the Electoral College votes in mid december, basically all the electors in their respective states will confirm the votes, which at the present stands for 306. 00 Electoral College votes for joe biden. 232. 00 for donald trump. Now at that point to President Trump saying he will accept the Electoral College is a decision, though, if he considers it as a fraud. Well, thats not strictly true. He has got no option, but to accept that decision that is a constitutional point at which the next president is confirmed by the Electoral College. The next step is for congress to certify all of those votes, and then the inauguration on january the 20th one must point out as well. That in more than 30 cases brought by the Trump Campaign or other republican organizations, have been defeated in the countrys courts. So certainly he has no grounds whatsoever that would appear to continue to cry fraud, and to continue to cast any doubt whatsoever on the result of the selection. But hes going to continue to do so. It would appear fear straightly, military has moved to dismiss more than a dozen soldiers after an inquiry found some of its special forces committed war crimes. In afghanistan, investigators uncovered evidence that soldiers that unlawfully killed 39. 00, unarmed civilians and prisoners. Most of that happening in 22 of the 2013 and so 19 current and former troops have been referred for possible prosecution. Also, the Trump Administration is planning to withdraw 2 and a half 1000 u. S. Troops from afghanistan in january and a further push to end americas longest war. When a u. S. Base is now being handed over to the afghan army, even though theres a surge in violence for your country for revisit it. One of those bases in a bunch of once volatile region in the east where Security Forces are trying to maintain a fragile calm these valleys have seen violence and like a few places in afghanistan, the area was occupied by isis fighters who targeted people in the region and destroyed their villages. Now things have changed. Q. What sort of had they suffered . There is a taliban presence in the border areas of this district. But i saw this completely eliminated from this area. For nearly 4 years, relentless u. S. Air strikes, supporting Afghan Military operations across in eastern afghanistan destroyed. I saw sanctuary here on patrol with afghan army probably going on here. A year ago. It would have been completely impossible. But now since i saw was going to be they have been very quiet at the nearby base. Its all so quiet. It was from here that u. S. Special forces with the use of Sophisticated Technology and air support for what i saw. The base was handed over to the afghan army, may these emblems are some of the few reminders that im american troops were once here. The money when the foreigners left, they did not leave equipment like weapons, vehicles, and other military equipment that we needed. We are an urgent need of heavy weapons, like artillery, mortars, cannons, and ammunition. If we have all these heavy artillery with us, we will be able to defend our country in a better way. The base commander says the taliban often attacks the base from the mountains day and night. The base is only levon kilometers from the border with pakistan. From where he says taliban fighters can slip into the area. Nato has adjusted eisold remains a concern here and has promised to support the afghan Security Forces for the next 4 years. Despite the sudden u. S. Draw down. In the villages of people who had fled, the fighting are returning to their homes. Some say that makes no difference. The americans are no longer in the area. Meet with us in the people who want to go. We are proud of our Security Forces and we are not worried. We want the taliban, the government on the face, negotiating teams to know that we have suffered a lot and we cant afford to see more funerals of our loved ones. We want peace and peace at any cost. And peace ever comes to this remote corner of afghanistan. People here also hope they can finally have a hospital and a Bigger School for all the children.

I think once again going on to the coast of vietnam and running inland. Remember, this is the flooded area, the fed has subsided some degree, but this is not going to help the orange suggest some fairly heavy downpours spreading further south during sunday as well. Theres still showers in the philippines, but theyre sort of more regular, more as you would expect them and has taken away some of the power further south. A good part of malaysia and some parts of west indies here are dry in the forecast next couple of days as well. That will straight is different story altogether though we have got rain showers running through the bite and just catching south australia. Its not that would be the story line. Dont think because the temperatures city in adelaide, for example, 3339, they have to sydney in on sunday and perth, a port 25 by comparison. The story will be for the next couple of days, this heat waves, footings through out of queensland and, and outback New South Wales towards the coast, with temperatures rising in land, not necessarily on the coast.

Lets start with some of the on the ground realities of fact in the news coverage. Whats the lay of the land, the challenging assumptions and the official line. The listening post on aljazeera the world heard the just a reminder of the top stories on aljazeera this hour. Thousands of farmers are marching into the indian capital, new delhi, protesting against laws they say, will affect their livelihoods, and the government to reduce remove, sorry, guaranteed minimum prices for their projects.

Large social Media Companies and tech firms are threatening to pull out of pakistan because of new censorship measures. Early this week, the government decided to expand the special powers given to its telecommunications authorities. Critics say that move will have a huge impact on freedom of expression. Has more from islamabad. Government has announced new regulation on the social media, the government, the move more very breach and all criticism of the government. However, the internet major platforms of the media complain that it will make it impossible for them to provide their new laws really hard to get a new digital economy. And may even get bogged down from the rest of the world. There was no Food Television channels were put under different restrictions by the government with a wooden door able to survive and laid off. Many employees, many of us opted for social media platforms to earn a living for our families. But if this too was banned, the more it would have a future will be. The government of course, has also come under scathing criticism for blocking the mainstream media. That made the government of pakistan will not accept these 3 main issues, hate speech, and the state content, and above all. But ill guarantee you. We are happy to make discussions with asia, internet coloration on any of their reservations. And we always welcome positive criticism. But the government had also come under scathing criticism from mainstream media, with their day were not allowed to delicate the images of the opposition rally in pakistan and their move to control the freedom of speech. The problem is here that the government in the state, theyre fearful of different voices, and theyre fearful of all sorts of content. We know for a fact that journalists get phone calls not to broadcast certain news items. They get calls when they question certain people, particularly generous corruption scandals. And theres a lot of pressure on the mainstream media. And now the same thing, theyre trying to apply on social media, which is why its so disturbing because it seems as though all, all the public pressure that has built up against this culture of censorship is not being taken seriously by the state at all. Predicted that the lord there draconian and really got off target gone from the outside world. When social Media Companies and even Internet Service providers, they refused to operate within such an environment. It actually might even create a lot of International Embarrassment for pakistan, because right now the government is pushing these rules. So the unfortunate reality is that in pakistan also because it isnt just politicians who govern, but the pressures that come from the military establishment that the curbs on speech are growing major will be a lot for their digital economy. And really heard on the new regulation will give power to good our government in order to be able to draw digital and moved by the new laws of freedom of the african peace envoy, ethiopian Prime Minister on friday to discuss the fighting in the region comes after they had ordered a final offensive on the area warned residents to stay indoors after ordering the army to move in on the regional capital, michael a government imposed deadline for forces to surrender expired on wednesday.

Its near the border with ethiopia. This is the only Health Facility at the village, refugee camp near sudans border with dozens come here for medical assistance each day. Techno will die says he was when by doctors back in his home country that he was developing cardiac problems. Now he says, days of walking, to flee from fighting in ethiopia, region, and standing in line for aid and for treatment is making him feel worse. I was told to be careful not to exhaust myself to take care of my diet. But since i had to flee my chest pains have been increasing. And when i come here, theres often a long line or no doctor, for hundreds of patients in the camp that hosts more than 15000. The center is the 1st and sometimes the only place to seek treatment. Despite that it has little to offer to patients, all fled to escape fighting from to gray. I wasnt suffering from anything when i was back at my. Ive been struggling to get medication since i got here, and the treatment is very poor. More than 45000 refugees have been displaced by the fighting integrate. It started 3 weeks ago following a government of unsafe on the to great Peoples Liberation front. The offensive was a response to an attack by the front on a military base and came after months of tension between the Regional Government and the federal government. 2 camps have been opened in sudan to cope with the influx of refugees. But providing services, especially health services, is challenging as more and more refugees continue to arrive. The camp here has 3 doctors who are also refugees to tend to the sick. We dont even we cannot. We dont you know, that could be of benefit. There are many here that we dont have that and we dont obviously sudans commission of refugees says its trying to assist the refugees with access to health care, but need support from organizations to be able to help the sick develop needed is for Health Organizations to provide emergency medication and the Refugee Community is no mingling with the local community and some turn to local Health Facilities to get treatment. Health organizations need to step up to ensure that refugees have Proper Health care. Most refugees here state, they dont know how long they remain in this camp, or if they will be relocated to places with better facilities. But they say they hope their calls for assistance will be listened to before a medical crisis. Of course, morgan aljazeera out of state coronavirus news now and Britains Health minister has asked regulators to assess the safety of the Oxford University astra zeneca code 19 vaccine. So keen to get approval for a temporary supply of doses. By the end of the year. The u. K. s Health Minister says the move is an important step towards deploying about seeing as quickly and safely as possible. Astra zeneca expects 4000000 doses to be made available by the end of december. Well, you can, as chief medical advisor though, says he remains confident in the trial results so far. Very difficult to look at the whole thing though. See the top of the result set to see some people and weve got a great regulator in the u. K. Notice no, dont make their decisions around. So i think you can resolve this fallacy works. I dont know its very exciting and needs to be put forward for approval. Regulators will need to be truthful about it. And the world Health Organizations executive director says the vaccine will allow for greater control of covert 19, but might run also warned. It wont mean the end of the pandemic.

His professor Lawrence Gostin from Georgetown University says a strong chance of a surge in code related deaths after the holidays. The worst Case Scenario is that well have a 100000 or more deaths between now and when the vaccine rolls out. I think, you know, basically. d a trumpet, ministrations, pretty much given up. The president almost never meets is his task force. The federal government is in disarray. Its highly politicized this city. And people just want to, you know, go to restaurants, bars, they want to enjoy themselves. And they want family celebrations, and they see every restriction as a, you know, 10 chill violation of their own freedom. Even though you know, human beings are not free to do things that may risk your own life. But if youre risking someone elses life, you know, an elderly lady or a family member, you know, thats not freedom, that, thats just simply, you know, causing unnecessary deaths to others. And nobody has the freedom to harm other people.
