Which is also another important big city of beijing was hit a couple of times and again the official say that it was a Ballistic Missile that hit me as well and we were able to hear the sound of the explosion and its even shoop our hotel we woke up all journalists woke up by that sound you see the curious citizens who are around but i have to tell that the Civil Defense units have been working hard in the area and theyre also trying to help the civilians who are waiting for who who have lost this and we are hearing that. There are 16 women and at least 6 children being hospitalized right now this is the situation then when youre speaking to the civilians rob they say we dont want. And a ceasefire because when we have a ceasefire it is our man you know that violates then it is targeting our civilians indiscriminate they they say and they claim that they are not targeting the armenian civilians but in military positions but the civilians are very angry this is what i have to say and. Assistant to the prison so it was our bridge and was just here he briefed the whole media here and he told this thing that happened here earlier this morning as a genocide and this is the situation and still some rescue works around the way and we will be hearing more about the outcome of the incident especially about the injured people rob said and thanks very much indeed the sin and cos you are talking to us from ground 0 and that was a by john lets bring in Bernard Smith who is a lawyer for his english in the armenia bernard just talk us through what the situation is like from your side. There was shelling in the evening were told in stepping back at the main city main town in the going to care about and in another town called hard drugs this is an area that they are about john is that theyve taken a couple of days ago it doesnt seem theyve taken the town they might have taken part of of the province so shelling continued in those areas its much quieter today were told in stepan and in other towns really so on this side of things it seems to be quiet and the armenians though of release the numbers of killed soldiers the latest update 429 i think armenians soldiers killed and when they release the numbers they release the names of the more and you see the birth dates and almost all of them born in 20012002 they are very young now is about young doesnt release the figures of soldiers killed on its side but you can be assured that there have been casualties on the as ery side and there will be young and when you see those figures you see the pressure the leaders on both sides are under to make sure that they are not the ones to be seen to be giving way to the other side in a break in the fighting which when the cease fire began we were given the opportunity to have a look around step in occurred and what the damage has damage has been done to that town. Step and accurate has taken a battering these last 2 weeks as a buyer john has thrown the latest high tech israeli and turkey supplied weaponry at this town and the surrounding areas of nagornokarabakh the ceasefire has allowed people to risk emerging from their shelters. A cease fire is good certainly but the problem must be solved you cant have a cease fire and several years later war again a cease fire must solve the problem that is our independence. Independence is very unlikely this is internationally recognized as azerbaijani territory but its governed by Ethnic Armenians a previous ceasefire lasted more than 26 years but the status of Nagorno Karabakh went on resolved a ceasefire allows both sides to assess the capabilities of each other and for the armenians there must be a new appreciation of the technically advanced and destructive weaponry that the adversary hands. What has surprised armenians in karabakh is turkeys open support for azerbaijan if one of the results were a direct involvement of told keep and i dont see that told hes going to pull out from the region it means that we have to somehow you know change some geopolitical approaches so far with state strength. For the string strengthen our relations with but also of countries but also. The United States iran and china. In the is very town of tartar these buildings were hit by armenian artillery before the cease fire we dont support the ceasefire our enemy shall face what they deserve maybe 10 times more than what they did to us before. These were homes built for some of the 10s of thousands of his areas displaced from territory next to karabakh that armenia talk in the 190124 war now theyre on the move again i would that an International Community or a Serious Group or cheers should take responsibility and transforms that current moment to a change in momentum of status quo into the durable peace is a particular focus on israel of armenian troops from so quite that it was a bit. Russia says armenia and azerbaijan have agreed to substantial peace talks for them to work both sides will have to make the sort of compromises on territorial sovereignty that theyve never been willing to make before. We live in burnet smith aljazeera stepanek kurt nagornokarabakh lets bring in vladimir certainly cough in moscow hes a political scientist at the Russian Academy of sciences its good to have you with us sir knowledge is 0 thank you very much indeed for joining us does russia have enough influence with both sides to be able to at least bring some sort of temporary cessation of the fighting. Well actually judging from the call to go shay chanson which were a lot of oil level now was on the friday on top of the might i think that russia has actually won so influenced the. Not to look to spy on but also getting to use all such them and dont recall i think that both sides need most of. All i mean theres a budge on should recognize and. I think that russia of any Important Role look like. A coach elements of their means could look what else can russia do in terms of this current temporary ceasefire in terms of the humanitarian crisis that it was those of the frame in which this was built because although it managed to get both sides at least to the same table what it has not been able to do is stop them from firing missiles at each other after the start of the cease fire. Well actually i think up yeah russian knowledge to get to all sides of the negotiation table but this is so wrong one step back because months that this is a critical staff to spy and reaching the. Agreements or. Conditions but the 2nd critical step would be the both parties with their negotiations somebody with. Russia would continue to get to the. Negotiations peaceful settlement and they thought might take a lot of time the negotiations where. Several years ago well started in 90 s. But not older since the critical sun 2nd importance that which should be done should be done we heard the foreign minister yesterday during the talks saying that the only thing that would actually make this move forward would be a from union troops left Nagorno Karabakh for their part the armenians are saying that theyre going to cost about should be regarded by the International Community as an independent region those seem like 2 completely opposing viewpoints how can russia bring those 2 sides together whats the Common Ground that would actually allow a way forward for this. Go to be good and so. Its not a concern so we go to the kind of box do is there undercover nights or problems on russia actually. Stands on the point that this is going to come up with the russian meditations. Should be that. Both parties shouldnt be getting back. Previous position and should be actually based on the actual facts which. Bending all the time be so russia. Or swayed both parties not to say all of them up and. To the ground that the both parties should continue. To abstain from provocations and from any any shelling of. Russia actually this is a toss hospital or russia and there are positive role russia who go that given the fact that turkey is quite clearly playing a significant role in this. How easy is it going to be for russia to try to be able to negotiate a deal when turkey is going to be playing such a key part in those negotiations perhaps not at the table but certainly in terms of the level of influence it has particularly with regards to azerbaijan is russia going to be able to get together a deal that suitable for everybody that also includes what turkey wants. Well as far as the. Cease fire agreement in songs it doesnt presuppose that there will be that but the situation. In this. Will set the stage i think at some point with some point in the likely scenario russia who actually. Go chapmans. Who did agree to that always chose talk playing in the region in general at the moment if you live in it so i think that when the. Well get to the actual negotiations well that was a little bit strong go shave. Russia and talk but no the signalman doesnt own the ceasefire it doesnt just. Send. One so you lost actually i think thats actually. Probably as as a as a gold problem is that since all our talk is for us then some bug on. The block at the 1st stage moves they say that the go to the cock should but its not my job this is not the good ground. Bowling talking future negotiations really interesting to get to thoughts on this we appreciate your time sir let me assortments off in moscow thank you very much indeed thank you thank you. But more ahead in the news hour including 20 years after being forcibly evicted white a zimbabwean farmers are returning to work for black landowners.

Says the president s been cleared to return to work but wont confirm if hes tested negative for corona virus it comes after trump addressed a crowd of hundreds at the white house and claimed the pandemic is disappearing on the day the u. S. Recorded the highest number of new coronavirus cases in nearly 2 months our White House CorrespondentKelly Holcomb reports. With his recovery still in question donald trump emerged from the white house to address supporters its the u. S. President s 1st official appearance since contracting cold with 19. Times physicians will say when trump last tested negative for covert 19 only that hes been cleared to resume campaigning and while the white house insisted saturdays event wasnt a Campaign Rally it sure seemed like one attacking his opponent former Vice President joe biden multiple times Sleepy Joe Biden has betrayed black and latino americans if you think he can run this country youre wrong track was addressing black and latino conservatives who are part of a movement known as blacks it or black accept the movement believes the Democratic Party has betrayed communities of color and is encouraging them to vote republican if the left gains power theyll launch a nationwide crusade against. Law enforcement and theyve already done that. Trump is playing on voter fears of the sometimes violent unrest that gripped several u. S. Cities for months this past summer following protests over the death of george floyd a black man killed while in police custody. Trump hopes his law and order message will help him win over white suburban voters in addition to minority communities hurt by the violence but time is running out for a president currently trailing joe biden in the polls right now American Jews are actually voting their early voting either in person or their mailing in their ballots so theres not much time for the president if hes going to turn this around to do so prior to cope with 19 trump had built on historically low unemployment for minorities but since covert 19 those jobs have been wiped out and once again communities of color are suffering economically in greater numbers than white americans but with little clarity about his own covert recovery there are questions about whether trump should even be on the campaign trail i think its a forgotten where it all. I think that the focus. On the president trouble began holding large public rallies beginning on monday and again on tuesday and wednesday as he targets 3 battleground states can really help get out 0 wash. Democratic president ial candidate joe biden has accused the chump of ministration of neglect over his handling of the pandemic bidens been campaigning in pennsylvania laying out his plans for the economy he says hell create millions of jobs and fund an economic recovery through new taxes on the rich the covert 1000 outbreak has left hundreds of thousands of americans unemployed and more than 214000 people have died america deserves a president who understands what people are going through your face and real challenges right now the last thing you get is a president who exacerbates more than 210000 are dead as was pointed out we lose anywhere from 700 to a 1000 people a day dead the president was told a little while ago when he was told 100000 people a day were dying you know what he said d he says it is what it is it is what it is because he is who he is my heart goes out to everyone struggling in this economic crisis simple neglect on the part of this administration. Productions we starting at libyas Largest Oil Field set up has been closed for most of this year because of a blockade imposed by the ball of clay for half ton being used to produce more than a 1000000 barrels of crude a day generating an important stream of income a lot of trainers that live for us in tripoli nic just talk us through whats behind this announcement. Well theres been a lot of International Pressure for her leave the house during his forces to reopen the oil comes along side the political talks that the u. N. Support mission is facilitating yesterday the u. N. Support mission announced that the into libya dialogue will begin. With in tunis theyll have a session in tunis in late october but the 5 by 5 military track delegations are are scheduled to meet in switzerland on october 19th so i think this comes as the International Community is trying to bridge the gap between the warring sides in libya and this is a step in the in the right direction of course becomes a little bit late last month in september the u. S. Embassy posted that gave a personal commitment of opening of reopening the Energy Sector by september 12th that deadline passed and the oil fields werent open but this is one of the fields one of the most important fields in terms of revenue coming into libya oil is the main main source of revenue thats how they pay for salaries thats how they pay for Government Services to the residents here lets talk about that money because theres always a query isnt there about how much oil money in any Oil Producing country actually filters down to the lives of people. In the daily lives of people on the streets how important is this oil to the libyan people. Well its how theyre paid approximately 20 percent of the population here work in the Public Sector so they work for you know the government institutions so their salaries are paid through the through selling this oil also this is how the according to the National Oil Corporation the diesel and gas that feed the power stations were were cut where were didnt have enough fuel to feed the power stations so we saw lots of power cuts there were protests across libya against the lack of Government Services here in tripoli for instance during the closures there were long power cuts 18 hours 20 hours a day and during the summer its very hot and add to that cove it you know people have a lockdown of curfew theyre not able to leave their homes the weathers really hot theres a lack of liquidity in the banks so you know people residents would have to wait in long lines at banks and there
