Intense day really for azerbaijan this is our report. It was a city asleep when the explosions ripped through the quiet of the night. People here were already on edge their hometown has come under fire several times since the conflict was reaganite did 3 weeks ago. This attack was the most devastating so far so theres a lot of moving weve been living in fear for days we couldnt sleep at night we hid but that was no use we suffering a lot i wish we would children would have to live without us we believe in our state and president may god give us back our. Country is about an hour drive from the disputed region of the corner that azerbaijan and armenia are fighting over armenia at 1st denied it had the long range capability to hit as far as ganja but then in a statement it said that there were several as Syrian Military assets in and around that city that were legitimate targets here in baquba president ilham.

S. And russia. Has already indicated is only temporary and it will continue its offensive to retake the occupied territories that how many. Are u. N. Arms embargo on iran has expired after 13 years he was lifted out of the 2015 nuclear deal with world powers the u. S. Withdrew from the pact in 2018 invoiced strong opposition to any easing of sanctions runs foreign minister divides that if welcomed the development calling it a win for Regional Peace and security. Has more from for her around. The iranians have said even though theyve reduced their commitments gradually over the past year since the us left the agreement they are still very much committed to it and the europeans have said they are in the same position given the restrictions imposed on them by the United States the u. S. Has imposed a series of sanctions on irans oil and Banking Sector making it very difficult for the european signatories of this deal to do business with iran as they would have under this agreement this is one of the main obstacles that is in place at the moment but they remain ians and the europeans have said this spite all these obstacles they are still committed to this deal and even though it looks like this agreement was very much dead over the past few months this embargoed being lifted is going to be seen as a move that this there is still some like in this agreement and there is hope that this will last. Protesters are once again gathering in the thai capital bangkok thousands of people have been rallying in the fire and so were government dozens have been arrested calling for the Prime Minister to stand down reform of the molecule and the new Constitution Police warm veil respond to any violence. Tony chang is live for us from bangkok so tony looking at the pictures weve got going on here it doesnt look like the authorities have succeeded in stopping people from coming out right. Now absolutely no once again its another day another protest here in bangkok once again the authorities have tried to shut them down theyve closed off numerous stations on the underground on the overground closed off roads and yet that theyve been out for again an hour ago the word went out on social media that there were several sites within Bangkok City Center a couple of others in the suburbs this is one of them a victory monument junction very important junction in fact yesterday the Police Closed this off because they thought the protests might be here tests moved away yesterday today was open to the protests to come here so it seems that the guard says that police are not being very successful in their offices shut this down and that the protest is not being deterred by the threats. And the emergency decree they hear that they just started assembling about 20 minutes ago there are still some traffic flowing in here but i would imagine as more people arrive this whole area will be swarmed soon and well the last 5 days now and one wonders what you are it is going to do. Talking about what the authorities might do understand the police have been talking what more of a value to do to stop people coming out. They held a press conference earlier today to stress that anyone found at these protest sites would be arrested and charged that said yesterday they stood back that the 3 sites that we saw on the edge of central bangkok where they did hold rallies the police pretty much stayed away we didnt see the arrests that weve seen in the previous days protest. But they made a couple of points at the press conference they said that anyone posting selfies of these protests would be charged with possibly in prison for 2 years. Fined for one up with 1000. 00. Those crimes under the new emergency decrees they also said anyone found to be spreading or sharing socalled news you know how flexible that can be used. For the same so theyre threatening a lot but one wonders at this stage whether they can effectively close these protests down there is an awful lot of momentum gathering here we are still seeing tens of thousands of people showing up on a daily basis and thirsts really seem to be powerless to stop. Thanks so much tony chang then bangkok.
