Yes people are also very angry here the whole of last week were also covering protests by you know people who are saying that they are supporting the protesters. But today is more calm than benny where. In the morning shops were closed streets were clear but now were seeing people coming out to the streets and going about their business and just to go back to benny ive just spoken to the governor of north kivu province currently receive it or not many is in north kivu province and he has said that Security Forces are not now just dealing with ordinary protesters he said that some of the people in those protests are armed with crude weapons like machetes he said that theyre violent theyre talking important installations that target Security Forces theyre talking residents of any who do not want to participate in this process he also says that they have information that the processed has been infiltrated by militia from this faction of groups called my my my my is more entrenched in the Community Many people accept this group more so he says Government Forces are going to continue using force unless the situation calms down going to continue using force as long as these protests are violent and all this is happening at a time when Health Workers in that region are struggling to deal with an ebola crisis. The visit by the director general of the World Health Organization to go was brief but necessary. Health workers responding to an outbreak in parts of the region wiretapped last week by my my rebels in an area where people are still being infected by the disease. 4 died and in this hospital the w. H. O. Chief visits those who were injured even one. Case could spark a fire so the same thing now actually with a major one of the major security incidents like this one concern is even more so it may take us longer than you know it would have taken with the progress that we had having the green he had the agencies upon a majesty coordinate to shows us what theyre dealing with the red sports you see the focus points its in mining villages in about 70 kilometers from baby town where most of the new cases have been detected yet its one of the most unsafe areas and where the Health Workers were recently killed plans are brick its important to stop or. This very difficult to access because of the forest around the mining areas making sure that they have full access to be. All of the villages amount of important plans are brick. Up to a dozen a boiler responders have been killed and several Treatment Facilities attacked since the outbreak started nearly a year and a half ago. Has killed on operations in beni because of the current security crisis these affects people tracking the disease we met. In beni 3 weeks ago shes among volunteers who wanted to people whove been in contact with ebola Patients Health officials tell us one of the biggest concerns is how people. Can safely keep in touch with those they monitor for a ball of symptoms. The performance because. The person performing. To 50 person this is a problem because. In goma the w. H. O. Chief also met those tasked with containing the disease some of whom had been ever hit from the frontlines in beni because of the unsighted security situation. When we spoke to the director general of the World Health Organization yesterday when he came to go he said the priority now is keeping Health Workers safe and what this means is that all are responders in bed we are now not able to deploy to some of these areas like where people are still getting in infected and this really is detrimental to the fight against. All right so catherine so i thank you for that update from goma well the United Nations has been trying to stabilize eastern democratic republic of congo for the last 20 years its mission as youve been hearing known as one of sco has more than 18000. 00 personnel and its the 3rd largest peacekeeping operation in the world where the 100. 00 armed groups are believed to operate there raiding villages and running illegal mines and the allied Democratic Forces are a. D. F. Is one of the most well known foreign by ugandan rebels more than 2 decades ago its accused of many atrocities her stuff vogel is a researcher at the university of kent and hes also a former u. N. Expert on the democratic republic of congo and he talks us through the mountain of challenges generally in delhi area how we have both been able outbreak coinciding with massacres in attacks that are ongoing since diamond 14 and while those attacks have been mostly attribute it to ugandan on the here with me Different Actors operating in that area that have also been identified for the involvement internet so when we hear about socalled my militia we need to be aware that those are like one or 2 dozen of very different groups and some sometimes that are my my eyes even used by civilian demonstrators and protesters as well. Now weve also seen is a very massive medical to be true to venture to address. Which is actually left local populations in doubt over the socal the international communitys dedication to also fight the violence with the same energy and moreover the militarization of the medical response in parts as falling trees distrust in an area where Government Troops and sometimes will peacekeepers are not always seen as positive forces by everyone. Syrian Government Air strikes have killed at least 14 civilians in the province. 20 others including children are injured busy markets and modern. City were targeted and there are reports of more airstrikes in the area. The search for iraqs new Prime Minister has begun after the resignation of his entire cabinet i did my these governments will stay on in a caretaker capacity until a new one is formed more than 400 people have been killed in weeks of antigovernment protests iraqis are now repeating their calls for a complete overhaul of the political system despite the resignation. So the white house says it will take part in the next step of the impeachment inquiry into donald trump u. S. President had been given until sunday to confirm whether hed send legal representatives to the house hearing on wednesday trump is accused of asking ukraine to investigate his political rival joe biden and biden son in exchange for military aides. Meanwhile donald trump is restoring tariffs on steel. Imports from argentina and brazil he made the announcement on twitter saying that the 2 countries have been presiding over a massive devaluation of their currencies which is not good for our farmers therefore Effective Immediately i will restore the tariffs on all steel and many im that is shipped into the u. S. From those countries lets bring in our White House Correspondent kimberly halakhah joining us from washington d. C. So another twist in the Trump Trade War this time with argentina brazil. Right usually were talking about the trade war with china but this time a bit of a surprise on monday morning as americans waking up hearing about this tweet that the exemption that had been secured back in may of 28 team by argentina and brazil on steel and aluminum as we say over here tariffs well those are now back in place and this is not going to make those countries happy specifically because the urge the white house not to do it but dr particularly upset by some of the actions hes accusing argentina as well as brazil of taking of deliberately he he accuses them of deliberately devaluing their currency and it seems that this might have been provoked by a comment recently made by the economic minister in brazil where he said hes not concerned about the Exchange Rate in other words that theres a strong u. S. Dollar in contrast to the brazilian reale so as a result there seems to be hewn it of action that has been taken by the u. S. President but it goes on even further because that tweet that you read has a 2nd part where the u. S. President says the. The Federal Reserve here in the United States should act so that countries of which there are many no longer take advantage of our strong dollar by further devaluing their currencies what hes saying is theres a pivotal meeting coming up here in the United States for the Federal Reserve thats the central bank here in the United States on december 10th and 11th he has been pushing very vocally for some time for them to lower their Interest Rates in fact he wants to see it in negative territory like he says europe has right now some of the European Countries because he feels theres a competitive advantage so to parse through these tweets number one the announcement that those tariffs are going back in place for argentina and brazil but also pushing for further action here in the United States something hes been looking for for a very long time all right kimberly thank you for that update. On to more head on the aljazeera news hour including World Leaders gather for a climate talks in spain as their war on the planet is approaching the point of no return.

But 1st reports are suggesting that saudi arabia once opec to reduce Oil Production as it prepares to list the state owned oil for on the Stock Exchange sources have told the Reuters News Agency that the plan would see another 400000. 00 Barrels Per Day added to existing cuts of 1200000. 00 that so or oil prices would stay high enough during a run close initial Share Offering but a number of countries are producing oil well above their quotas lets bring in al jazeera as economics editor for analysis on this whats this all about does it have to do with saudi aramco i. P. O. Weltering theres a lot of speculation around as to exactly why saudi arabia wants to do this but lets deal with iran 1st yes you know it would be really helpful if oil prices were stable over the 1st 6 months off its flotation now. They say its important because they have a lot of Retail Investors which are small investors who are putting the money into the market possibly for the 1st time taking huge loans to take a big bet on this particular company after 6 months if they keep their money. They will get extra shares and the who pays that nonvolatile market would encourage them to keep their money in the saudi aramco so the saudis a very keen to make sure that this flow. They dont want to have to put their hands in their own pockets in their state funds stock market got to buy excess excess shares the whole idea of trying to sell aramco was to make sure that there was additional new money coming into the economy so that they could spend that money elsewhere and could there be any other reasons behind us move up and oh yes absolutely you know Global Demand whether you look at the International Energy agency both are saying next year there will be a glut in the 1st 6 months of the year and really what companies. Produce really need to do is reduce the amount of oil that they are producing otherwise the oil price will sink below 60. 00 a barrel now russia will be turning up to this meeting as part of the Opec Plus Group and russia has been reluctant in the past to sign up to any deals but at the last minute they always signed up only because they were thinking about the bigger geo political picture of keeping the saudis happy of all their interventions around the world where they are in libya and in syria to make sure that the middle east is a stable area now at the same time the Russian Oil Companies are saying you know really we dont want to keep within these within these restraints we want to produce more oil we capture greater markets otherwise if we have to cut production were losing market share and they dont want to go down this slippery slope but theres other countries which havent been keeping to their production limits which is iraq and next year and brazil norway and guyana will start to pump more oil onto the market and this will cause a huge headache for the saudis. Thanks very much for that.
