And on pieces to improve the schools Sergio Aguero will face no punishment of the touch of the lines women during a match but well tell you why many fans are still upset by it. Thanks for joining us the latest the time to end fighting between armenia and azerbaijan appears to be faltering just hours after it began both sides are accusing each other of violating a 2nd russian mediated ceasefire in the space of a week it was established a day after the as a result 13 people were killed in a missile attack in the city of ganja more than 700 people are estimated to have died so far in the fighting in the disputed. Region of nagornokarabakh well the remote mountainous area is officially parts of azerbaijan but its been controlled by Ethnic Armenians since the end of a 6 year war in 1994 earned smith is an armenian capital youre yvonne will speak to him in a moment but 1st lets bring in what ive been having and shes in ganja thoughts and as a beige tell us what youre seeing and ganja. I mean this is the site of the attack that happened yesterday that you just mentioned every now really there is an atmosphere a bit of popular anger here all fingers pointing out. Theres also very little faith in this renewed ceasefire that was announced on sunday people here obviously saying that they could not trust the armenian side to hold their part of the deal even though i feel theres a bit of confusion over what exactly that humanitarian ceasefire is about the people here think that its its about an indepth host cities when in fact its really about bringing some. Calm period enough to swap bodies and did. Now to moment we dont know where that is heading we just heard from their budget and he said that they are ready to return some bodies to armenia through this prearrange door. As a budget and said that it has informed the International Red cross about it but this statement did not say anything about. Soldiers definitely. On the battlefield especially in the areas in the occupied regions around. The Azerbaijani Army is pushing forward it has Popular Support there is a feel that as a biogen at the moment because of the do every tory again has the upper hand and you have a lot of people here who do support that many would tell you actually that maybe a ceasefire is not what should happen now and that the army should keep on pressing ok thank you for that update from ganja and azerbaijan lets now bring in Bernard Smith from armenias capital here of on any clarity from your end bernard on this humanitarian cease fire and the fate of this. The armenians say theyve been pushing for several days now to get this humanitarian ceasefire agreed on and its taken 2 weeks to get this far it was russia that got the 2 sides to agree to a humanitarian cease fire to the handover the bodies of killed soldiers and to Exchange Prisoners of war Wounded Soldiers it was never quiet enough along the goal line of contact never peaceful enough for them to be able to for both sides to be able to agree to do this there was an attempt last week on one local attempt to do it on one part of the line of contact but even that failed after a few hours because firing started again so this decision by the there is to hand over the dead bodies of the armenians had already earlier on agreed to some sort of handle reporters and prisoners of war is a step forward armenia needs the cease fire to carry on itself but now 675 armenian Ethnic Armenian fighters have been killed in the fighting and armenia has lost control of territory it has held since the end of the war in 1994 this territory between nagornokarabakh karabakh in azerbaijan is considered the security or buffer zone but the armenians say thats what it is to protect nagornokarabakh for the last 26 plus years theyre supposed to be discussing the status of this territory plus nagornokarabakh with nothings happened in that time hes wires about john says it is now moving militarily with the support of turkey to take some of this territory but. Thank you very much for that update. Thousands of protesters have gathered in the thai capital bangkok for a fest day they have been rallying in defiance of a government ban dozens have been arrested and theyre calling for the Prime Minister to stand down the monarchy to be reformed and the new Constitution Police are warning that theyll respond to any acts of violence tony chang well give us an update from bangkok to 1st talk about the the thai Prime Minister government officials have been speaking tony what have they been saying. You know we heard a statement coming from the Prime Ministers spokesman a couple of hours ago which appeared to strike a conciliatory note he said he wanted it was i was aware of the issues that the protesters were complaining about he talks about the covert 19 conditions the need for people to come together to plan that that i think. That its had on the on the policy. But with i tell you speakers listening while i understand this is a response from the crowd they are shouting very clearly in a rather explicitly that they want the Prime Minister out or theyve been chanting now for the last 5 days as theyve assembled frankly weve heard these kinds of statements since the protests started in july and there has been no substantive action on friday the Prime Minister was asked if he would step down and very dismissively said absolutely not the parliament has the option had had the option a week ago to look at constitutional reform that was delayed again much to the irritation the protesters so i think at this stage unless suddenly substantial can be offered by the Prime Minister nobody here is going to take that seriously and what weve heard all evening from the protesters is that they want those goal demands they want the Prime Minister out the constitutional form and the monarchy to be reform here tony youre looking at the live picture. It seems like these protests continue to have momentum despite the government ban on rallies. They do absolutely and whats interesting is after the crackdown on friday evening when the riot police used Water Cannons against the protesters the protests diverge the formed different groups of protest sites theyve been very mobile. Trying to avoid the Police Tactics of shutting down public transport shutting down areas of central bangkok and there turned an interesting effect to creating more momentum although the protests have been divided large numbers of still come out although the protest leaders have been arrested in many cases. There are new leaders emerging and i think individual protesters are taking it upon themselves to come out and to continue the momentum of these protests and theyre now taking place in more than 20 provinces outside bangkok so the intention of the government in the police was to try and intimidate the protesters into stopping it certainly hasnt worked we dont know if were still to continue to see these on a daily basis but i think since that friday crackdown weve had 2 very large protests in the last 2 nights the momentum is definitely with protests the protests and the moral high ground and i think at this stage the ball is very much on the governments part to give subsists a substantial response and some reason for the protesters to stop the other the otherwise theyre just going to keep the pressure on all right tony thank you for that update from bangkok. A u. N. Arms embargo on iran has expired after 13 years it was lifted of support of the 2050 a nuclear deal with world powers the us withdrew from the pact in 2018 and its voice strong opposition to any easing of sanctions there reigning in foreign minister zarif well from the development calling it a win for Regional Peace and security.

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 the iranians 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 there are still some like we in this agreement and there is hope that this will last the chief palestinian negotiator so i brought i call being taken to an is really hospital more than a week after contracting covert 19 is being transported from his house in the occupied west bank over to west.

Youre with the news hour heres whats coming up protests are taking place in fronts right now as the nation mourns the murder of a teacher in a paris suburb. The bay rays are on their way to the world series for the 1st time since 2008 that story is coming up a little later with peter and sports. First well take you over to because going ins are voting in attend election on follows months of unrest the incumbent president s day has cast his ballot in the capital conakry on sunday morning hes running against 11 other candidates but his main rival is the former Prime Minister. John doe this is the 3rd match up between the pair 82 year old conde insists his attempt for a 3rd term is legal but the opposition says it violates the constitution so lets take a closer look at guinea the west african nation has a population of around 12400000 but 43 percent live below the National Poverty line thats according to the world bank the Agricultural Sector is the largest employer providing an income for 57 percent of rural households guinea has vast Natural Resources including the Worlds Largest reserves. And or used to produce aluminum the Mining Industry grew by 50 percent in 2017 again is developing its hydro Power Resources but currently use utilizes less than 5 percent of its potential politics is split along ethnic and tribal lines the Largest Ethnic Group the accounts for 40 percent of the population and the milling came makes up 30 percent of the population and lets bring in nicholas hockeys following the election for us from the car and neighboring senegal nicolas what can you tell us about the election. Well obviously during this campaign weve seen a very Divisive Campaign all the candidates really going after one another some time along ethnic lines but thats all a smokescreen at stake here is not just the presidency its who will be in control of this enormous wealth the one that you just alluded to in your in your into i mean 25000000000 tons of box side have the worlds reserve 4000000000 tonnes of iron and or significant diamond gold deposits undetermined quantities of uranium you have some of the Biggest Mining Companies operating in guinea and during the current virus a lot of investors invested in mining and we saw record profits from rio tinto 9000000000 dollars this year roussel who is a major stakeholder in guineas reserves posted an 8000000000. 00 profit this year and yet get ins most of them for the vast majority live under the poverty line 20 percent in extreme poverty a country so wealthy and a population so poor joining us now is denver saidee mining rights activist now you looked at that situation in the end guinea what explains this irony of a country so wealthy and a population so port you know africa pollutes very rich countries and guinea is one of the top 10 of those richest countries and what we need to sit in this is that the kind of core din. Of abandoned. Country but at the same time one of the poorest countries in africa and one of the poorest in the world because of but management of these resources and bad governance so who is responsible for this and it has this been a topic of conversation during the campaign i think the alternative is do is who are. Responsible for this because the management. Lies in the responsibility of the government itself and it includes designing laws and policies that guide the governance and the management of those Natural Resources aswell and urges so how to share those benefits to communities as well so in the context of elections this has come as a key Campaign Topic that there is so much money here coming into guinea i mean to 20 percent of the profits go to get in government wire or so many get in and out of electricity out of water and dont have access to basic healthcare here exactly that they create go issue populations are suffering for years now beyond democracy people are not getting profit from the exploitation of not roared ashore says electricity as you say lack of schools because hospitals and at the same time these companies and making very great profit wellbeing so this comparison is that as think about the debt should disease where the country is economically lies under the trade shows he is at the same time poverty is increasing yes but where has all that money gone if its not going to the getting in people who has all that money whatever it is going to go is that the minimum of lets say for that taking that money and the other part is going to the companies as well because the country is not profiting enough from this money and the rest of that the minimum theyre getting is go into a minimum of lets say out to retirees who are holding the power but is there corruption here it is exactly that is corruption that is confused because most of them also are mining hoarders or are associate of sometimes in mining activities as well so that is clear corruption we couldnt fire and the sector in guinea now during the election there was a lot. Talk about ethnic identities and whos voting for who in a lot of people and get a vote along ethnic lines but very little conversation about the economy itself what do gideons want to see today in this election. What would be determinant to what kind of sanctions or propose in agenda when big powers on how they are to. These Natural Resources that is the key point i think that should be determinant under decision pollution are going to make for whom to vote that sees very essential in their life again they didnt but thank you very much for this now this is an election that has more than 5000000 people that will take part in it many of them are 1st time voter in a country where most are under the age of 25 and so there is hopes and aspirations that no matter which candidate comes into power whether it be the incumbent president alpha conde or his main opponent that those resources will be better manage and will go to this young population just 11 number there and most of the migrants the minor migrants that are coming to europe are going in and theyre fleeing their country because of the lack of opportunity and because theyre not seeing enough of that wealth and well be following the events that unfold in this what has been a very Tense Campaign and the polls are about to close in about 3 hours time daryn sorry you got it are a necklace thank you very much our thanks for the correction will be crossing back to you throughout the day im sure on the going to elections thanks for the time being. Lets bring you more on our top story weve been telling you about the armenia and azerbaijan conflict they of course accusing each other of violating the latest cease fire to stop fighting in the Nagorno Karabakh region lets speak to our mina alex and yun whos the Deputy Foreign minister of the republic of soft thats the armenian name of care about shes joining us from stepanek or thanks for speaking to us on aljazeera what can you tell us about the status of this humanitarian ceasefire thats meant to be in place. Well i have to say that unfortunately leaves the previous summer inge month by russia fire has also not being observed this is very unfortunate because there were a great hopes that at least this 2nd attempt would walk and sites will be able to actually literally if. Possible when dates from the line of contact but im fortunately. Nyquist seem to be at least silence from the city there when it it was calm relatively compared to the 21. 00 nights that that and all the other cities where under constant and relentless attacks but unfortunately as i speak to you i can hear blows and artillery shelling. Going by some way knee out so unfortunately i am told that owned on the line of contact the fighting has not ceased ok so how do you that when theyre saying that the Armenian Forces grossly violated another agreement in the accusation is that armenia was firing artillery and mortars in various directions and launching Early Morning attacks along that front line that you were just mentioning. Well as a by gen when it started this offensive on the 27th of september also said that armenia was the one launching it but everyone knows that it is not in armenias or in our interest to launch anything because as you can see the war is going on on our territory and it is our people that are suffering from this mostly so its in our best interest to stop the war for the car of armenians this is a mosque that we want to secure our civilians to ensure their safety because for the last day. There were about 31 casualties among the civilians there it is certainly one that and more than 100 people were injured so. You know we have no reason to violate this is a ceasefire ok so its on the issue of you say its in your best interests to stop the war then what are you. Willing to concede to in order to do that because weve seen the of what involvement of the russians trying to get the 2nd cease fire in place its quite shaky so so what are you willing to do to stop the war. Weare willing to see the negotiation table and discuss the difference that exists there but for that to take place of course then needs to be a ceasefire it cannot be forced by arab up but it can be forced by International Community it can be forced by the ois see it can be forced by more powerful countries that have been witnessing these 21 days of attacks on the civilians living in the arts ok on the issue although a c. E. O. Now that youve brought it up and where it where do you official stand on the o. S. C. And the minsk group in particular because do you think that its still a viable option to bring peace to this region some people saying well it hasnt worked for decades it hasnt been able to do anything for decades is this the way forward lets not forget that oist is a maybe 8 to come to peace there needs to be a political will from all sides of the conflict for armenia and they have openly stated that they are ready to solve this issue exclusively by peaceful means and they both agree to introducing the mechanisms investigate investigative mechanisms that could allow to say who has violated the cease fire and this was done back in 2014 and after the escalation in 2016 when i was sent by john attack it was azerbaijan that did not agree with the interaction of this mechanism and does not agree to it so that it rather it is obvious that both armenian sides want peace and im ready to see that the table of negotiations to discuss the possibility of peace but for this we need those mechanisms to exclude the use of force all of the strengths of the use of force russia of course a close ally what kind of support are you looking for or assistance are you looking for from russia now. Well i i would say that russia has the leverage in the south caucasus to have possible impact on both sides to bring them talked to peace but i wouldnt say that russia is an open our law in a sense that i mean it has an agreement with armenia but it hasnt got such an agreement was kind of our soul in a sense i would say turkey is an ally to azerbaijan and has not 1 been hiding this including providing its arms and providing recruiting mercenaries from the middle east so that is where we should look into and look for the deterring mechanisms to be used by all parties it is not be solar sponsibility up to russia but actually all the oystein means school court chairs and the responsibility of the International Community and maybe a recognition there remedial recognition could be an answer to these centers owned by john would basically understand that it can not go unpunished by trying to get some gains by attacking the civilian population. And i dont use asian is for sure exactly what are. These are accusations from both sides will have to leave it there we thank you though for giving us your time and speaking to us on aljazeera thank you for inviting me. Cora bomb has killed at least 12 people and central afghanistan dozens were injured in the city of ferals car thats the capital of gor province no one has yet claimed responsibility and 8 Afghan Security officials were killed in a Taliban Attack in cruz province where the taliban says recent violence and im gonna sign wont do real talks with the government.

We refused to say there is no progress there is but there are problems and as i said disagreements on key issues as you know there are still meetings between the committees and we hope that at the end we will reach a solution and lets keep this in consideration this is a major step and its expected to be a difficult process this happens all over the world when there are negotiations starting a dialogue is never easy there is some progress and then there may be some slow down and in many cases talks come to a halt these issues are quite normal and we hope that the disagreements we have on the key issues will be solved very soon god willing talks have continued between not just the taliban and the Afghan Government but interlocutors off peace with the taliban as well as the u. S. Government weve seen that the u. S. Lead diplomat trying to mediate between the a Foreign Government and the taliban saying that all sides are going to try and make sure that there is a reset of the violence all elements of the agreement which was reached reached with the taliban are going to be implemented and all sides should reduce the violence there has been reassurances by the taliban as well as the Afghan Government that they are going to scale down attacks to try and protect civilian lives.

Still ahead on the aljazeera news hour we take a closer look at what voters in bolivia are hoping for as they head to the polls. And theres a special bond as the government heard for a poststrike a rubber and 900. 00 ski peter will have the details and supporting. Frank assessment if American Public Opinion Pieces betrayed by social media platforms after november what would be the repercussions if you believe that theyre corrosive to our democracy one obvious solution is to break them up informed opinion just like you should because dont go anywhere the protesters will go anywhere either its ability to get a revolution. Indepth analysis of the days global headlines who is it thats really out there on the street inside story on aljazeera. And when a hand is on the other working in asia and africa thered be days where id be choosing editing my own stories in a refugee camp with no electricity and right now were confronting some of the greatest challenges that humanity has ever faced and i really believe that the only way we can do that is with compassion and generosity and compromise because of the only way we can try to solve any of these problems is together thats why there are so important we make those connections. Youre. One of the new top stories on the aljazeera news hour armenia and azerbaijan are accusing each other of violating a 2nd ceasefire which began just a few hours ago more than 700. 00 people on both sides have been killed during nearly 3 weeks of fighting. Thousands of protesters have gathered in the thai capital bangkok for a 5th day theyre rallying in defiance of a government baton were calling for the Prime Minister to stand down reform of the monarchy and a new constitution. Demands are voting in a tense election that follows months of unrest nearly 5000000 eligible voters are choosing between 12 towns where its including incumbent president off according to his longtime rival. Protests are taking place across france following the be heading if its yes youre near paris take a look at the live picture this is the scene in the middle of the capital thousands have turned out in a show of solidarity the school where he taught is believed to have received multiple threats after he shot a controversial image of the Prophet Muhammads in a lesson about freedom of expression so youre going to go reports. They gathered outside the secondary school in conflict. With 47 year old some. Parents students and colleagues are in a state of shock. They paid tribute to the teacher who had been stopped and then beheaded in broad daylight and. The priority for us is to look after the children because i think it was very hard for them and it still is the school had received multiple threats after patti showed his students caricature of the Prophet Muhammad in a civics class on freedom of expression parents say the teacher suggested Muslim Students could leave the classroom if they were offended but a number of muslim parents complained Police Officers shot the suspect as they try to arrest him on friday he later died of his wounds.

The killing comes at a time of the new tensions in france about the 2015 attack at the offices of the Charlie Hebdo magazine after it published controversial cartoons of the prophet mohammad the suspects are on trial less than a month ago 2 people were attacked outside the magazines formal offices and in this paris suburb the effect of that attack has also made its mark on this quiet community. Aljazeera. Lets bring in right now is are our whos the chief foreign correspondent. Joining us from paris thanks very much for speaking to us just give us a sense of how widespread these protests are right now that are taking place across the country. There is a. Deep sense of shock problems so everybody except boat that. You know of the scene down we have the problem of poverty so its not very easy to go out to be together but it was a big sense of shock because they were something which is secret in france its school and schooling and education and the way you have to teach history as it is and this professor was job just you know giving a lesson of history and he was just explaining what happened recently with this controversy kerry got yours but of course he didnt take any side parting with just telling that he started and and of so theyre all. French the site is deeply shocked part because schools and schooling and instruction are kind of secret. It is French Society and as a result of this this horrific attack of course thats a place french officials are now saying that they will propose reinforcing controls of financial flows of some islamist associations and also to propose a law that will empower or florida is to shut down associations and schools that they think indoctrinate children in france is this a kneejerk reaction though i mean is this the right path to go down or can this inflame tensions within the Muslim Community. Its a start probably not enough because they say the french are appalled at what they see i mean in the muslim world especially actually in the sunni muslim world this spreading of sound at this is that it would not exist at all you know like 50 years ago who remember. The leader the beloved leader of the arabs egypt making fun of the old woman and preaching one of modernization and now we have this Huge Movement found out who says im coming from sunni islam and people are really called in front and those are 2nd certainly cant generalize that way mr renaud certainly certainly you cant generalize that way about the sunni muslim world and we were talking about these incidents that are happening in france. Yeah because we had we had. There the criminal was from church and yeah but we had several weeks ago some refugee from pakistan also attacked people because he doesnt like the way d the French Society works im very of course freedom of thought in france and freedom of expression also and and it it theres a big problem in falls now on the main groups who are coming some people who come to from who asked france to be for this the wellings and little social aid and so on and thats why im not grateful and then who attacked French Society and french been its like education and so there is a big problem that the government will have to deal with is how do you control immigration and the 3rd problem also is how people muslim people who. Wanted to come in chances really in front how they cope with the french civilization and in some part of the Muslim Community but of course in all parts of Muslim Community of course not all people are concerned but in some parts of muslim communities you have people who actually do not light. The French Society and the bees and the french are said to be get this because of freedom you know of. Expression they go back more than 2 centuries to the french revolution right and that iran has all barry and the french people sit with these people ok you dont like france leave it just leave it all right well have to leave it there are lots to discuss but im afraid weve run out of time we thank you very much for joining us on aljazeera youre well youre welcome.

Thousands of chain there are said to mark one year since the beginning of a protest movement calling for a social change demonstrators demanded a new constitution and a more equal society or latin america editor of the c. N. N. Reports from santiago on the continuing posts for progress. A small 30 pisot increase in the metro thing was the detonator of a social explosion last year that has rocked latin americas most stable democracy ever since. 24 year old similar medius was one of the students that rushed this entangle metro station last october 18th it was the law and uncle as the saying goes it was in the 30 pesos with the 30 years of unfilled promises clearly there was a before and after october 18th chile has never been the same the rules of the game have been totally modified in what way its an illegal left in the sense as citizens of empowered and took over public spaces to demand their rights that had never happened thats why its been a citizens revolution. The initial revolt was followed by riots and looting small but violent radical groups destroyed millions of dollars worth of property the mainly Peaceful Demonstrations lasted until march when the pandemic began despite widespread human rights abuses on the part of security forces. But most of all the social explosion as its called here unmasked a deep rooted discontent and anger over social inequality privilege and exclusion and it was supposed to be a latin american oasis this girl is one of many that illustrates what was a major disruption until in society that is still unfolding and it has the potential to significantly alter this countrys social economic and political model. As a result of the. Rising the political establishment agreed to a key demand a new constitution that would presumably guarantee basic social rights like Education Health and decent pensions my feeling is that the process open. Service sort of put the elites trying to empathize and connect with them or what we still dont know if if that connection. Will be able to channel their move back to the institutional re our. Next sunday chile will hold a referendum that is widely expected to approve the rewriting of the constitution.
