Also today libyas internationally recognized government says it has rejected the arab league calls for peace talks so long as the Initiative Comes from the allies of all Khalifa Haftar egypts president called on the government of National Accord to stop its offensive against east of the capital and threaten military intervention itself the worlds troops have been retreating and losing ground since the g. N. A. T. Launched a turkish back to france of in may the french president is accusing turkey of playing a dangerous game in libya that can no longer be tolerated also syrias foreign minister weighed in saying his country supports a cease fire and also backs the forces loyal to the leaf after leave me alone. Today libya is a victim of foreign interference the foremost of which is the turkish aggression that aspires to control its wealth in principle we support the ceasefire and we call for the resumption of the 5 plus 5 talks at the same time we support the Libyan National army led by Khalifa Haftar and we support all institutions in Eastern Libya we came on the unity and sovereignty of libyan territories also we stand side by side with our brothers in the arab republic of egypt to defend their National Security and the arab National Security more mahmud other one had now in tripoli mahmoud if the internationally recognized government is rejecting it because initiatives are coming from the allies of Khalifa Haftar i mean that tells us so much doesnt it that it is really in libya all about the allies in the proxies in the supporters rather than the libyan parties themselves. Well its ironic because the egyptian regime is claiming that its trying to eliminate foot intervention in libya but in fact the government in tripoli has been accusing the egyptian regime of fueling the conflict by supporting get the war truly for have to for years now and the government here in tripoli says that it is not. Attending its not taken part in the Arab League Summit in fact it has stated that its downsizing its diplomatic or presentation in the league on account of what it calls the double double a standard policy adopted by the league in regard to the libyan crisis meanwhile as you know command that the tripoli because the government has rejected the call by egypt saying that it cannot accept any peace calls from egypt because the egyptian regime has been derailing several proposals to cease fire in the past in fact. The government now is accusing the egyptian regime of violating get libyas sovereignty and declaring war on libya that old saw follows the speech by the egyptian president of the for a few days ago threatening to start military intervention in libya. In case the Government Forces move on the strategic coastal city of syria it now the Foreign Ministry at the tripoli based government here in tripoli also says that the league is violating its own internal panel by holding this summit without the consent of the concern. The country of libya and also its a violation of the United NationsSecurity Council given the fact that the international internationally recognized government in tripoli should be the only legitimate body in a presenting libya abroad not the one who is in tripoli for us thank you and. Weve also got my trainer hes out in the coastal city of misrata east of the capital and sent this report the g. And a with turkish support has been able to take control or take back western libya or other now position to the west of sirte and what were seeing is a lot of you know political maneuvering by various countries but whats important to note is that these forces that are in the west of sirte are primarily from the city of misrata and they know the area very well they know the territory the ins and outs of sirte they they went into certain 2011 and captured and killed more mortgage duffy and in 2016 when i still took control of these are the same forces that went into sirte and liberated it from isis of course they did that with american support u. S. Africa command carried out airstrikes at the time and we saw we saw u. S. Delegation coming into libya yesterday meeting with the d. N. A. Janay leadership so you know forces here on the ground say they will not negotiate with after they say that they will they will enter search based the d. N. A. And turkey are saying that they call for a cease fire but they insist that forces retreat from central libyas best specifically in sirte.

Lockdown restrictions that were being reimposed in northern germany where 1500 workers connected to a Meat Processing plant tested positive restaurants and Entertainment Venues in north rhinewestphalia being shut and people can only meet outside has this is the 1st german state to restore emergency measures since they began easing them back in april when it came in belin. The reimposition of lockdown in the area of greatest low in the state of north rhinewestphalia is a blow for that state and its Prime Minister armin lashed to keep conservative allies of angular americal the hope amongst the all forest is that they will be able to keep this as an isolated outbreak its worth bearing in mind that this particular this Meat Processing firm tourney is more than 1500. 00 workers they have tested positive for the virus plus some of their family members and 2 dozen other people who are not connected with the plant as i say the hope is to be able to treat it as an isolated outbreak the interesting thing here is that the people who collect the figures of new infections and the rates of infections across this country have been looking into what it is about the Meat Processing industry that has seen several different outbreaks in this country over the course of the past few months during this pandemic this is what they had to say is skeptical there are indications that 2 aspects could play a large role in spreading the virus in avatar was one is the temperature the air is cooled to keep the meat cool and this could play a role another factor that is not insignificant is that aerosols can be formed because the air is damp the important thing to stress here is that ministers have always said they are led by the science by the numbers during this pandemic the mantra had always been for ministers but once the rate of infections of new of new infections and the reproduction rate of the virus got above one well that was a dangerous sign for the country and the point right now is the robert cock institute says that the stable measurement of the virus is considerably above one which leaves the question for ministers at a federal level what do they do next do they treat this is just isolated outbreaks or might they at some point need to introduce more lockdown measures the question will be answered when the numbers come through.

Wall showers as we go through wednesday to say the bulk of the rain is to the east but the next mass is working its way throughout wednesday across much of the Korean Peninsula some very heavy downpours at times is all tied to this frontal system trading back into more southwestern areas of china and this will actually become a little bit heavier on thursday working its way just to the south of shanghai bit clearing across the Korean Peninsula but at the same time that very heavy rain beginning to push again into western as a japan but timing is not too bad one in a socket 26. 00 across into seoul but again of course that does come with want to lingering a shower as plenty of rain this time now into central areas of india this is all part of pauls of the southwest monsoon rains that we have as well across the west by the way down into carola but a drier day wednesday and thursday across into edition off into west bengal but all the while the rains are making more headway up towards the north into the dash and also out tools the west into raja stan so up into new delhi because he.

An update on the election in malawi where voters are choosing their next president though this is a rerun of last years election that was an elder by the Constitutional Court because of ballot rigging president people with a record tried to stop this rerun but the Supreme Court turned down his appeal Church Members and nongovernment organizations volunteer and as election observers to try to ensure fairness this time around its out of a task the following developments from harare for us tell us what more youre hearing how do specially about that issue of things being free and fair after the controversy of lost time. Voting is being going generally well across the country except for some parts in the Central Region with some incidents of violence have been reported the incident with last years election wasnt so much the issue between a voting it was an issue basically of the result judges ruled that some of the ballot papers back then the results would change using typewriter correction fluid if that some people voted more than once it was interesting with this one is that this time the winning candidate had to get more than 50 percent of the vote and thats where the thats where some of the problems could arise because president peter metallica so far hasnt signed a bill that says if no one gets more than 50 percent of the vote then there has to be a runoff within 30 days between the 2 leading candidates so the concern is if after this rerun no one gets more than 50 percent of the vote whats going to happen next if that bill hasnt been signed into law that means possibly parliament will have to sit again and have a meeting or the makah go to court the Electoral Commission is saying that this time they will not be rushed they want this election to be as credible as possible they say it could take them as long as a today to make sure things on order because theyre under a lot of pressure to make sure this election is free and they know its a National Election observers because the coronavirus pandemics are right now a lot of churches micheline n. G. O. S on the ground trying to monitor these polls a lot of people seem to relieve the churches on the ground the church is respected is trusted and people hope that as many as possible of the Church Officials remain neutral just briefly harder is there any strong challenge to. His rule. Well when you listen to all of the im in the speaking thinking to be in a canoe and people say this election is quite exciting especially for young people in malawi theyre saying for the 1st time they feel reinvigorated they say the fact that this time the word has more than 50 percent of the vote to win means that there will be no one who can come in challenge that is out there is the obvious glaring mistake within the counting process if they feel that the fact that because the judges was so independent in their decisions when they basically did rule in favor of peter much when he said he won the last election they feel that whatever issues come up this time around theyll also be independent and put their foot on the grantley people feel that maybe this time things will be different this time the nation could run more smoothly but of course all eyes are on this new Electoral Commission is now a new hit the former one has been fired theyll get a new man who is now in charge will be a more assertive or make sure that no irregularities happen on the ground and the result when announced will be 3 and we have a lot of in town so that the update on the elections in malawi a group made up mainly of north korean defectors has managed to evade south Korean Police and fly propaganda balloons into the north but the ones carried leaflets money and memory cards which usually contain south korean t. V. Dramas and music carry those over the border the government in seoul had tried to stop them and is condemned its activism like this which was one of the causes of recent tensions between them and its also the north korean militarys report of the reinstall its propaganda loudspeakers along the border the south is warning it not to undermine efforts to keep peace on the peninsula we want to know our military is monitoring the North Koreans around the clock and maintaining military readiness please understand that we cannot tell you in detail about the situation but i have already said north korea will pay if it commits any acts that can sort the effort to improve the relations and maintain peace on the Korean Peninsula. More on the star now from seoul with pride as far as we can tell the d. M. Z. Itself remains quiet but i think it is true to say that given the recent very fast unraveling of relations across that border there has been an uptick in tensions we have the north apart from apparently reinstalling these loud speakers presumably once more to start blaring propaganda out across the barbed wire the north has said that it is going to reestablish guard posts just inside the d. M. Z. Which had been taken away as a way of deescalating tensions there have also announced that theyre going to start theyre going to resume military exercises near the d. M. Z. So there is a rise in tension and of course its not helped by this evolution launches like this one the defectors themselves will claim this as a major success but it remains unclear just how many of these balloons have actually made it across the d. M. Z. Into north korea it is not a very exact science and in fact at least one of the balloons and some of its leaflets has been discovered in south korea and in fact to the southeast from where it was launched so its not clear how many balloons have made it the whole intention of it though is to spread leaflets said to be around 500000. 00 leaflets were sent up with these balloons also booklets and really with very incendiary propaganda attacking the person the kim il sung he is the founder of north korea and a revered figure so it will certainly enrage the North Koreans as should any of these leaflets and other propaganda material end up in north korean territory. A Chinese Institute says there is an increasing risk of military conflict with the United States because of tension in the South China Sea the National Institute for South China Sea study says the increased u. S. Naval presence in the pacific could threaten peace in the region also says washington and beijing are been locked in a power struggle ever since donald trump became president. Obviously got. A new report out from the United States is painting a picture of widespread police abuse in the days following the death of unarmed black man george floyd Amnesty International focused on the violence seen in the demonstrations after floyds death and says Police Reform is urgently needed more details in this report from patty telling. Some of the videos highlighted are now familiar chaos outside of the white house protesters cleared to make way for a president ial photo of police in minneapolis patrolling the neighborhood and firing projectiles of people sitting on their own front porches. But its protests spread across the country many of the videos highlighted by Amnesty International didnt go viral in indianapolis a woman in a wheelchair and small children tear gassed by police well praying. Little rock arkansas protesters healing and then this week the fetus. In california protesters lain on the ground and hundreds react all across the country members of the media deliberately attacked. It goes on and on and it happened all over the country according to Amnesty International over 11 days in 40 states and the district of columbia they say these are 125. 00 examples of verified police abuse or overall takeaway is that its not a few bad apples and its not a few bad departments and its not a big city problem or its not an east coast west coast problem its that we found these incidents everywhere else in your reached out to several Police Organizations for comment but didnt get a response but the police do have strong defenders in the u. S. Its a tinderbox and People Including Police officers can on occasion older react i dont think is any question about that but you know most of the incidents that i have heard about. You know are are cheer gas or flash bang units or. Pepper spray used to disperse crowds and its very difficult to tell in some of these videos about what is going on with those crowds of those crowds throwing projectiles needs to be attacking them Amnesty International hopes this site and all of these videos will lead to serious Police Reform and while that is happening in some places the federal government seems unlikely to be able to agree on how to keep these seeds from playing out again and again patty calling aljazeera.
