Trivial contre for reporting live from kabul. Moscow has called on armenia and azerbaijan to abide by a cease fire they signed theres been intense fighting over nights of the disputed no go to a cutback region the russian brokered cease fire came into force on saturday the area is officially part of azerbaijan but its controlled by ethical medians lets go live to work go to this at all media there has been at smith is the bullet whats happened to the cease fire. Well its really just on paper only this ceasefire has been intensive fighting continuing overnight along the line of contact in the armenians tell us from their side there was particularly intensive fighting what they describe as the most intense battle so far all along the northern part of the line of contact so a lot of russias foreign minister says that now it might be right to deploy observers along the line of contact but thats up to armenia and azerbaijan to agree now armenia hasnt responded to that yet today but i asked the armenian Prime Minister about 10 days ago nicol pushing on about the idea of russian peacekeepers and he was just very diplomatic about it saying it could be discussed as part of a wider resolution within the minsk group this is russia france and the u. S. Which is trying to negotiate some sort of long term settlement the nagornokarabakh territory that armenia took when it fought their last 4 to major war there is still not calm enough for the gret cross to agree to a time to exchange bodies on prisoners of war between the 2 sides there was a Small Exchange we understood on one part of the line of contact earlier that seems to been agreed to locally nothing to do with the red cross but even that attempt to exchange bodies was interrupted halfway through when fighting started again so just from that example you can appreciate how tense it remains on both sides aljazeera smith reporting live from.

Israel and lebanon 2 nations technically of war meeting for the 1st time in decades to discuss the maritime border but allegations are in southern lebanon for whats being called in direct talks being hosted by the United Nations and mediated by the u. S. Both sides claim parts of the mediterranean coastline stake of the rights to oil and gas fields since go live to southern lebanon of 0 say the holder is in the cooler so what exactly are they talking about so you know whats the significance of this. Well the 1st round of talks ended a short while ago it was a short meeting both sides really preparing or laying the groundwork for future discussions maybe even chosen a new date for the 2nd round october the 28th away from the media israeli and lebanese negotiators sat down in one room in a meeting hosted by the u. N. And in a meeting mediated by the United States significant ts because theres a long running dispute the maritime borders between these 2 countries theyve agreed now to sit down and talk why now people are asking that question what change both sides did make compromises but many believe that you know theres a political timing to this 1st of all some lebanese politicians were coming under International Pressure were coming under sanctions which were really linked to corruption as well as links with with the Group Hezbollah and at the same time you have the United States which needed this diplomatic when they get another diplomatic win amid a Reelection Campaign the trumpet ministration really celebrating this deal is historic coming on the heels of u. S. Brokered deals between israel and the u. A. E. Rain but lebanon as well as israel are making it very clear that this is not about peace were not making peace this is not about reconciliation or normalization what this is about is a technical matter a civilian matter and we are hoping to resolve this issue because economic and economic reasons brought. These 2 parties to the table elaborate on more than israel because israel has already started to explore and drill the possibility of gas reserves in fact it even exports cows but lebanon hasnt been able to do so so you need stability for International Companies to start working and over the past decade significant caus reserves have been found in the Mediterranean Sea but whether or not the deal can be reached well thats a whole different question because talks are expected to be complicated.

The antigovernment protesters began gathering here in democracy monument just after 8 oclock this morning 2 supposed to be in the afternoon but they came early to occupy some space here on this Traffic Circle around democracy money you can see them now starting to gather around makes you know why they have chosen today thats because in 1973 there was a student led uprising much like this that overthrew the then military government now what theyre asking for now theyve refined their demands down to 3 they want the cabinet to resign they want a new constitution and this is the most controversial part of it they want reform within the monarchy something that hasnt been touched in many many many years but that is why theyre out here again this is the 4th large scale demonstration they have been able to do since july now whats interesting with this again this is a Traffic Circle here around democracy moment on this side of the monument you can see maybe some of the yellow shirts out there those are people who support the monarchy and who support the government so they have also come out in force again thats part of the reason why the antigovernment protesters came out early so they can occupy their part of the circle so be able to see how things on the fold over the afternoon one thing though the organizers of the antigovernment protest say theyre going to do that later in the day is go down this road and that is to march toward Government House now we know that down the road even further they have put the police up put on buses across the street and have Police Cordons after that to prevent them from doing it so theyre allowing them to gather here around democracy monument but theyre definitely making a bold move a strong move to prevent them from going to the Government House later in the day.

President ial candidates have been trading blows on the campaign trail donald trump attack joe biden during a rally in the battleground state of pennsylvania. This election is a simple choice if by. All these other countries when we get ripped off by everybody agree with you we can still thing you wings in america which is very simple. For years the shellfish and corrupt Political Class betrayed the people of pennsylvania you know that and the people of our country joe biden has been campaigning in the state of florida addressing older voters many of whom backed trump in 2016. Thats been used to already the entire story in my view Donald Trumps presidency the fact that hes never been focused on what matters hes never been focused on you hes handling of this pandemic hes been a radical just like us president s used bad and it has prevented florida seniors and people all across the country from getting the relief that they need donald trump hasnt just been willing to not do the work i think its that beyond that im not sure he cares about delivering any real help many us states saying historic levels of early voting more than 10000000 people have already mailed in or dropped off the votes to use the pandemic President Trump has repeatedly criticized mail in voting say that it leads to fraud i was there as andy calico reports. On the 1st day of early voting in Georgia People lined up for hours to cast their ballots in some counties voters reported waiting more than 10 hours but it isnt just in person voting that shattering records across the country as people make their voices heard more than 10 and a half 1000000 ballots have already been mailed in or dropped off a number that could see voter turnout the highest since 1908 despite fears over the cove of 19 pandemic long waits and technical issues in some states early voting is hitting historic numbers for me as a younger person i am really ready and willing to stand out here and brave the cold and the coal that i had to make it and i got it down it was so much at stake and President Trumps unfounded claims that mail in voting could lead to massive fraud there are problems the Republican Party in california installed dozens of their own ballot drop off boxes virtually indistinguishable from boxes sanctioned by the state officials call them unofficial and illegal and have insisted they be removed those official ballot drop boxes go through a number of steps that are required in law and regulations for installation for security for placement so having these unofficial ballot drop boxes that anybody can go to on main and and not meeting all those requirements is just not appropriate according to the u. S. Election Assistance Commission the popularity of 1000000 votes has been growing for years but this year it may play into the hands of democratic president ial nominee joe biden here in florida the number of early votes reveals a potentially worrying statistic for President Donald Trump the number of democratic voters who have cast their ballots early tops republicans by more than 350000 this is a state the president must win Many Republican voters dont trust mail in voting so those numbers will change is election day draws near or at the biden campaigns push to get people voting early seems to be working make a plan to. Early and then get involved i know youre busy i know that i know youre stressed so. But there is action is still important not to do every thing we can florida is the 1st state to begin sorting its mail in ballots but like other states votes wont officially be counted until election day for now only the computers know the results of what will be a historic president ial election and to gallacher aljazeera Miami Florida bars and restaurants are being shot in the netherlands after a wreck or daily increase in the number of covert 19 cases that the government has banned the sale of alcohol after 8 pm a mosque supreme made compulsory in indoor spaces nearly 7 and a half 1000 new infections almost on tuesday europe are seeing a spike in numbers and the netherlands has one of the highest infection rates per capita worldwide. Could have ended on the storm you know it today were introducing new and tough measures were going to partial lockdown its a hard message in the new rules going to hurt but its the only way because the facts dont lie and we have to be stricter on ourselves and strict on our behavior in any case not enough people are near the lens and sticking to the rules and there are too many people who disregard the rules of aljazeera steadfast in reports now from amsterdam. Stricter measures are now being announced and its still a partial lockdown despite the fact that many others also have been asking for a complete lockdown and make sure that in a couple of weeks maybe the inspections will go down so far the government didnt want to decide to have a full lockdown but they also said maybe in 2 weeks if the situation is not improving they might decide to do that so so far schools are still open but there is a still a new turn around from the side of the government to have this mandatory face masks now in all the indoor public areas and thats a complete different change in policy because so far the government has insisted that is it is help to protect you against the fire as they stubbornly. Receded that for several months despite the fact that in germany and belgium and other countries here in the west of europe these are safe nice warm mandatory already they kept repeating it but now they have changed this stance and say that they will look for a Legal Framework to make it mandatory in the very near future i have a feeling its not really sinking in yet what ive seen here and im so them because this is definitely a hot spot the capital of the netherlands has the highest infection rate and life has been as usual so thats why the government has this very tough task now to convince everyone this is serious the hospital hospitals are struggling i. C. U. Capacity in the netherlands is limited a lot of operations can be performed right now because of the cope with 1000 patients coming in and they hope that people will believe this but theres also this criticism that the government hasnt been clear for the last couple of months themselves at all last ditch talks are taking place between the u.
