Good morning from russia im kevin owen here at arties World News Center moscow start of a brand new week so thanks for choosing us for europe take this monday its just 10 10 in the morning moscow time here 1st the smoldering conflict between armenia and azerbaijan which reignited over a week ago shows no signs of relenting as fighting continues in the region of nagornokarabakh the.

And latest is hostilities in a spreading beyond the disputed territory to with several towns in azerbaijan being hit according to the is there a government stating that one of them was hit by a missile i mean it denies that claim this morning heres a correspondent he goes down off reporting from the. Scenes like this one on here in the go and i care about in fact this tiny village alone was battered by 6 massive missiles is where one of them landed and this is all the devastation that it has left but it is not where the azerbaijanis had hoped where it would land because we about we were just a few 100 meters away from the airport of step on a cart and here the airport its much bigger than just taking people from point a to point b. Its political its a symbol of independence and a symbol of allegiance of the local government to the authorities over menial and that is why i was there by john isnt happy at all that its here in fact since since this airport was renovated and became operational again back in 2012 it became a regular target of attacks in fact it went as thereby john went as far as threatening to shoot. Down all planes coming in and out of this airport but later backtracked saying that it would never target civilians but even if it doesnt even as it doesnt target civilians specifically well they still get the short end of the stick as you can clearly see but i talked to them i talked to the owner of this house who still lives here and hes told me that hes not going anywhere but. Ive lived here for almost 20 years and i dont want to move away i will work your instant into the end of my life and hes not the only one its the general mood here as people prefer to stay and live in their homes even of bombs fall on their heads i guess done of reporting from the disputed region of nagornokarabakh.

Passes or now have to do still treat moving in and irans the areas feeling missed because of the intensity. Of the situation he received 3 words of calls people were pretty terrified and dont know all and what to do just to be in a safe. And basically this is really very worrying also on the onset of winter when children are just several weeks into that school just and basically its a day that people are trying to protect themselves and be anxious you know the issues all really severe situation so authorities in the going to region say nearly 20 civilians have died since the conflict escalated a week ago as a Defense Ministry says it does not target civilians earlier mccullagh you know neal talked to elder recently law for journalists from one as opposed to on the t. V. Channel who described the damage on the as ery side of the border. We have seen. Destroyed houses destroyed. Destroyed infrastructure is. There people from their civil population people that have nothing to do with their military actions refused to leave their house and refused to leave their region armenians are accusing hours or breakdown of targeting civilians we know civilians have lost their lives in this conflict is that what is happening if you are talking about armenia. Thats a complete nonsense the military command of other but dont be clear that either by janet army does not target civilian people as well as really interesting that theres an infrastructure that targets of the Azerbaijan Army are firing positions its or if its the way it is and we were impressed structures in the occupied territories either by john 5 doesnt fight against civilians. There baghdad is fighting for liberation of its all territories. Thousands of rallied over the weekend in israel demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu despite new controversial anti covert legislation the bans Mass Gatherings of people dozens were arrested as police struggled to force locked on regulations on ultraorthodox communities including in jerusalem and the television suburbs is arties paula slater with the latest. Was it well over the weekend we saw tens of thousands of protesters demonstrating throughout israel against the israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu now mass protests are currently forbidden in the country and people are only allowed to gather within one kilometer from their home so the result is that was small we saw hundreds of small demonstrations taking place in tel aviv was one of the scenes where those demonstrations was altered in violence was. Was. Now the local police chief has complained and criticize protesters for using violence against Police Officers for example throwing eggs we know that 58. 00 protesters were arrested in tel aviv alone for the violation of public water and at the same time for attacking Police Officers many protesters disturb the order blocked roads to ignore distractions of officers resorted to physical and verbal violence a large majority of virtually broke the emergency regulations when they gathered with no distancing not Wearing Masks and danger in Public Health now one of the organizations that has organized protests is known as the black Flags Movement and it is to make circle 100000 people out on the streets of the weekend that is difficult to independently verify that what we are hearing from witnesses is that this is a stall a fateful moment they say that they will not be silenced either organizers for. I think that the protests will not stop. Until the Prime Minister netanyahu his post this comes as criticism against the police in the way that they have been handing hold protests also goes with the countrys defense minister going against the attacks on protesters tonight and in recent days around thinkable demonstrations were held in accordance with the guidelines are religious and an essential part of a democracy i call in the police to find the attackers and bring them to justice now the countrys Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu continues to insist that the way hes been handling the protests is legitimate and particularly the way hes been handling the whole pandemic is experiencing its 2nd lockdown however its likely that these protests against the Prime Minister will continue in the weeks and months to come theyre criticizing the way hes been handling conflict 19 and also they calling out against his corruption charges. Theres been long since the u. S. President donald trump announced he tested positive for covert 19 but already said to be on track for release from hospital as early as monday as his doctors are reporting an improvement in his condition the u. S. President even briefly left his ward to greet supporters who gathered outside the Walter Reed Hospital one point his car passed close to a security fence and trump could be seen wearing a mask and waving to the crowd over the media all that said is still right for the speculation but the exact circumstances of the president s diagnosis is art. I want to experience the roller coaster of being an american in october 2020 so a bit of a stretch i know but imagine i mean media pundit in the us after trumps covert announcement so my 1st question obviously when was he diagnosed just 72 hours into the diagnosis now the 1st week of that but 72 hours i mean he found out on wednesday not on thursday as he said i must sniff out more inaccuracy as confusions and conflicting reports the time that is my 1st query of course but that has been cleared up in a memo not that convincing though the white house is clearly sketchy and involved in some kind of cover up also there was a misspelling in the memo im sure we can read something into that something terrible and sketchy obviously then we come to symptoms of the bad are they very very bad how fatal is oxygenation levels how bunning is his fever was he taken to hospital because hes literally at deaths door as before its clear the white house is covering it all up i must be aware and not just the doctors who say hes actually feeling fine his videos while probably a body double think oh no we were. Going to make sure things were the 1st ladys doing very well visit fever while i but i in my funeral outfit he doesnt have one was the Washington Post said but its not particularly encouraging either way lets pass the wost Case Scenario and even back to the power not to my pants of course no no to nancy pelosi shes a good solid democrat but then thats the question of intent some of my colleagues are suggesting that trump was a no win super spreta what should we do with such covert criminals look them up of course comes doing notifying people of this constitutes Reckless Endangerment in the 1st degree he presented a genuine risk of death to another person in a way demonstrating a deprived indifference to human life. So blown knew he had coded 19 traveled on a plain spoken event went into peoples faces traveled back never worrying in moscow telling anyone that he was exposing everyone in his speech to go. In the hospital. If trump knew he had killed that 19 at the time who debate to joe biden he should be charged with assault oh speaking of the debate even molony is not as innocent as she looks molony was the only trump Family Member who wore a mosque during the debate then she took it off when she went up on stage with the bidens were was she purposefully trying to infect joe biden dont put it past her shes evil just listen to the tapes on the topic of those tapes its obvious from these leaked phone calls with her trusted formally 8 that she did really miss being in the white house. Working that. I knew. About. It so its agreed shell stop at nothing to stay for a few more festive seasons meanwhile as my colleagues predict trumps imminent death there are some out there who are sharing it on president trips in a hospital from colbert and i just was same our heart goes out to culver city. Social media platforms even have to step in and take down the thousands of posts wishing trump dead i mean if twittering coa delete and contest against donald trump we know its descended into chaos either way all those people who already dancing on trying to kill to grave need not worry because that chosen candidate might be the oldest democratic nominee ever but you know matata hes an a for the long run these. Things are. Very busy this is. Right. This. Is so i can say is this is really building anticipation for the upcoming 3 peat debate which if you really think about it all Things Considered looks a lot like a president ial debate i cannot wait for november. Sus could tell her that morning thanks to watching out international for moscow with me kevin though in what we got ahead will this for one of its neighboring suburbs around the maximum cope at 19 with the citys bars now set to close again as infection numbers skyrocket again oh dear its coming up after the break. The world is driven by a dream shaped by one person. Who dares thinks. We dare to ask. Those soviet rose in conflict no one is not going to look at it is no very hot we tell you what you need to know and it is america in 2020 acting on similar events. Bolshevik revolution in 97. Join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and ill be speaking to guest of the world the politics sports business im show business ill see you then. The. Story from russia next to the far east grave concerns over an ecological disaster may be off the coast of kamchatka thousands of dead Sea Creatures have reportedly washed ashore there and investigations underway with waters sand and samples of marine life being sent now here to moscow for examination is how the threat was discovered and. Theres been clashing the british for the past few weeks all the surface at the beach who went into the water were experiencing not problems i face who didnt pay too much attention to their symptoms we initially put it down to the bright sun and strong winds but when the problems persisted on cloudy days too we became worried him several started showing other symptoms nausea fatigue and fever to see not quite dangerous in a slideshow of some of the 1st sign was some of the surface feeling sick we thought it was a rotavirus something to do with the Drinking Water then people started complaining about ira tehsil sore throats in general with. The post just this sometimes happens off to still see a change in the starfish often washed up on the shore in large numbers but we havent seen octopuses wash up before that strange. Some of the local surface of the animals have been behaving strangely in particular the ring seals would swim with us they usually only come up for spending most of the time on the water is now when they break the surface they stop why do while. She wouldnt it is a dud to dust we receive test results from the water. We took showed hoyle based products were 4 times over the limit and final was twice the limit. Of what you think it was. All the possible causes for the disaster are all. Local milk the reactions make it all for. Some commercial tamper or some problems at the local toxic chemicals. Which is what did it you know its just people are here. Or sad to see isnt it. You know if we get any answers to any time soon french authorities putting paris and neighboring suburbs are maximum alert because a coronavirus as a single state resurgence in covert cases on saturday the country registered its highest daily figure since the outbreak of the pandemic at least 17000. 00 new infections. Perry said its in the suburbs are going into maximum alert this evening in these areas urge employees and the police to work remotely as much as possible to slow the circulation of the virus so whats going to happen now is that bars will close from tuesday in paris however quite controversially restaurants will be able to remain open thats of course as long as they are able to fight by street sanitary conditions also taking down the details of people who were expecting that they will have to close at 10 pm in the evening now that came after a crisis meeting between members in the hospitality sector and the french Prime Minister with one Union Warning that up to 15 percent of bars cafes and restaurants could face bankruptcy potential bankruptcy as a result of the kovac 9000. 00 restrictions and a quarter of a 1000000 people could be left without jobs as a result of that last week we already saw sporting facilities shut down including gyms and there is concern about jobs in that sector too i am very angry about this because i feel there is no quality of predictability to what is happening and in my work it is obviously very harmful for. Any company not to be able to pull and heard. Many of us die of our words jobs. The measures being taken should reflect reality and the actual risks but that is not what is happening but the decision to keep restaurants open in paris is really stood up a bit of controversy you may recall that just over a week ago that must say which is the 2nd city in france was put into the maximum alert and as a result of that last month all bars cafes restaurants had to close immediately because of the situation there that is really infuriated must say smarr then as most of levy ever rather see even confirms there is an equal treatment from the sea inconsistent and unfair that theres one other thing that this crisis has brought into the forefront and thats how people think about the french government in the way that they dealing with it and a new poll has shown that confidence in the french government is at an all time low when it comes to qubit 1973 percent of people in this poll said that they were concerned about the transmission of 19 and only 35 percent so just over a 3rd of people said they had confidence in the french government in the french executive to be able to deal with this effectively people now in paris waiting on monday for full outline of what the new restrictions will be and how they will impact life here from tuesday. The leader of one of italys biggest parties could face up to 15 years in jail if you found guilty of kidnapping refugees the former interior minister maternal solve really stopped a rescue ship carrying over 100 migrants from docking on the arleta sicily last year but he claims it was done in romes common interest. Or. So i am absolutely satisfied to finally hear from a charge that what has been done has not been done by myself alone waking up in the morning saying what do i do today lets block it disembarkment it is part of a fair and correct procedure in accordance with the tally in an International Legal norms to the level that i am not an expert. Well that was salvini his Court Appearance on saturday really faced a Pretrial Hearing meantime rallies for and against the politician filled the streets side is rise to power came on the back of his anti refugee policies with italy bearing the brunt of course of europes migrant crisis over the last few years if cleared of the charges its thought solving he could emerge with a serious boost to his popularity some of the protesters made their case to the cameras. My pussy believe we should not behave like someones colony some politicians seem to think we have to feed the migrants he disembark in sicily and it will somehow get them votes but we should not listen to them you must not close the ports our people should remember what it was like when we were immigrating to america they would send us to an island and take photos of us if we had one rotten tooth they would send us back tension surrounding migration are high in italy which is a destination for many coming from africa recent arrivals to the island to lampedusa met with hostile protests some locals say theyre tired of hosting more newcomers the local mayor urge the government to take a media to action are threatening to call an island wide strike so finis party the league has seen a major dip in the polls since last august when a call for a snap election backfired even so it remains a political powerhouse in rome we heard from italian modern history professor pilar bernadino who told us the former interior minister had grounds for keeping the migrant ship at sea.

Hello and welcome to cross talk were all things are considered im Peter Labelle the host soviet frozen conflict no news no go to look at about is no very hot we tell you what you need to know and its america in 2020 acting out similar events that witness the bolshevik revolution in 1970. To discuss this and more im joined by my guest george is an author and a you tuber at the gaggle and here in moscow we have Dmitri Bobbitt she is a political analyst and editor it interest me internet media project originally crossed up rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i was appreciated ok lets go to the georgian budapest be a conflict nicola go to. Has flared up again those that have. Been watching the post soviet space gotten used to this year now after over 7 days of the conflict reigniting again georget some kind of stalemate put it into context why is this conflict important to follow. When you have to go back to the earliest days of the bolshevik revolution and to the decisions of Joseph Stalin who was the bolsheviks point man on nationality as he was the nationality. In among the bolsheviks and he decided that the region of nagornokarabakh should be a part of there by john b. You know within the within the territory by john. And its ethnic make the fact that its ethnically armenian the armenians were going im happy about this is the need is there that this would be a part of i mean but he decided to be a part of us there by john in large part because the bolsheviks was seeking to appeal to the muslims of asia and also the muslims of the of what became the u. S. S. R. And in particular to turkey. At that are in the nascent bolshevik regime was making great efforts to. Keep turkey happy. So that back when it was set up now of course it didnt really matter so much within the u. S. S. R. Because everybody just did as they were told by the leadership in moscow but when it when the soviet union broke up in their completely chaotic appalling way then of course these national issues
