Rigged. After their 1st chaotic encounter donald trump and his rival joe biden face off again in a final debate before the u. S. Election. Ok lets begin in nigeria where the president is holding an Emergency Security meeting as parts of lagos burn smoke screen billowing from a prison officer earlier reports of gunshots that have been almost 2 weeks of protests which initially began against Police Brutality mysti International Says at least 12 protesters were killed in lagos on tuesday night lets go live to ahmed idris in bruges 1st of all just bring us up to date with whats happening with the prison and in the city itself. Well a report suggests that the situation in the prison has been brought under control initial reports were getting is that some people try to break into the prison and 3 inmates others are suggesting that there was some kind of scuffle within the prison gunshots were heard but b. Even before then some good ones what they were thought to school would limbs was seen around the area with dangerous weapons and storms and then we heard the gunfire and then smoke coming out of the prison building and that situation according to reports its now contained security has been beefed up i dont the prison what we dont know is whether prisoners have escaped and how many have escaped and this is coming just 3 days after a similar incident in a state in south of the nigerian where more than 1990 prisoners have escaped although less than 10 percent of them have so far been arrested and brought back apart from the prison situation they have been cases of violence in lagos overnight and there were gunshots and. Looting that took place in an area called the baggage area on the main line and then this morning there were violent incidents in motion area in remember nikki where Security Forces shot at demonstrators or shot demonstrators on tuesday evening they were reported cases of looting and arson in one of the biggest mall that also was attacked during the attacks that happened in nigeria following these afford to get tax in south africa retaliatory attacks that happened in nigeria targeting South African businesses so its been a very chaotic day for residents of lagos and security people i should be struggling to contain this they put out one fire from this and another fire starts on the other end of the eagles and while all this is happening as we mentioned the president is holding a meeting with the National Security officials talk to us more about what theyre likely to be discussing there. Well there we are reviewing the situation across the country what worked and what failed remember the president has not come out to address the nation in particular us he used to or ok genes or us president s in this country used to on occasions like this they have been called for him to address the nation and specify what measures hes taking just not only to protect nigerians but also to boost confidence in the ideas and investors who are coming this way to invest in this country but unfortunately over the past 2 weeks or so we havent seen the president on television addressing the nation in particular on this issue that has been rigged for more than 2 weeks now so the security chiefs. Briefing him on the situation the army the navy the police and the air force and all the other security agencies in the country are tending that meeting so we expect a yeah a statement from them whether or not the president will speak to the nation thats a different thing altogether but the big problem for the president to address this nation to squali address this. This protest but its now seemingly overtaken by events or rather hijacked by criminal elements. Unleashing violence as well as a rooting and setting buildings and structures and fired across the country and some of digits in a butcher bringing us up to date with the situation in lagos in nigeria its been revealed in an attack in northwest nigeria 2 days ago killed at least 22 villages including women and children and the news has just emerged from some fog a state of what happened on tuesday witnesses described what they called 100 Armed Bandits raided the village of tonga quanah.

K. Has its own problems as well doesnt it. Countries big and small across europe facing the full brunt now of the 2nd wave no one is spared you mention the likes of spain and france there passing the 1000000 infection mark in the last 24 hours already under heavy restrictions more restrictions very likely are going to come a country like italy that was the worst affected in the early part of the year now recording a Record Number of infections for italy 15199 infections recorded in just the last 24 hours and the long body region taking the highest proportion of those new infections that was the worst affected region if you remember back in march was appalling pictures of exhausted medics treating people in open air makeshift hospitals that for warm for the rest of europe what was to come another big country germany also struggling to them over germany was a country that did much better than most in the early part of the year because of an effective test and trace system would it still testing a 1000000 cases days of very effective there and indeed seeing rising infection rates 11300. 00 positive cases in the past 24 hours thats a record for germany but the government there warning the country to anticipate the uncontrolled rise in those infection numbers smaller countries to struggling the Czech Republic you mentioned theyre back in the same restrictions they were facing back in the spring the balkan countries seeing steep rises tiny belgium having an awful time talking about a tsunami of infections there its Health System on the brink of collapse indeed its deputy Prime Minister struggling with kovan 1000 herself in intensive care as we speak so a dreadful sort of human toll across the continent but a dreadful economic toll too and you mentioned the u. K. There and yes indeed the u. K. One of the worst economically affected by covert 19 the chancellor she soon out in the last few hours here in london stood up in parliament and on. Unveiled his 3rd Financial Support package in just the last month for businesses and employees this one particularly at the Hospitality Sector Hotels bars restaurant pubs 17 percent of whom say that theyre on the brink of imminent insolvency very welcome these measures no doubt but adding hundreds of millions of pounds to an already blooming public debt already at its highest level in 50 years as a ratio of g. D. P. Thatll take years to balance back again possibly far longer than it would take for the worst effects of cope with 90 itself to have come and gone john a thanks very much indeed that is jonah hull talking to us from london the South African government is warning of a severe increase in covered 900 cases thats after one of its largest cities cape town reported a 42 percent rise over the last 2 weeks some of the miller is in johannesburg. Well south africa until this point has adopted what its called a risk adjusted strategy and at the height of the pandemic around june july and august so there fricker was between level 5 level 4 and 3 in the strategy and now has moved down to level one which is the the easiest or the the most lenient level in the strategy now most social events are allowed that increase the number of people that can visit restaurants bars that can attend the funerals and this is the concern from the government that because of the pandemic has now been around for so long people are increasingly complacent theyre not Wearing Masks properly theyre not at hearing to social distancing and the major concern i think for the government at this point are these social events specifically in nightclubs and bars you mentioned that in cape town there was a 42 percent increase in the last couple of weeks and one of the concerns the is any of bar in cape town that is considered a so a super spread away at least 80 people were infected there we saw something similar in the eastern cape where students went to university and so the Health Ministers really in kizzy is saying that complacency the easing of restrictions is leading to what could in ever to be a 2nd surge and this is what the leading expert in south africa is saying around the pandemic and what south africa potentially could face going forward. Saad hariri is Prime Minister of lebanon for the 4th time is appointment was announced after consultations between lebanons president and various political groups he resigned from the job last year following mass antigovernment protests against the acute economic crisis and corruption hobby but that as a journalist and founder of the beirut report he says honey these return is a sign of how little has changed in lebanon since antigovernment protests started more than a year ago. I think people have been through a lot in this past year theyve been through the explosion theyve been through devaluation of their money by 80 percent value of the currency so i think that many are are not feeling the same revolutionary spirit as they might have been a year ago when things were looking a lot better people are pretty desperate this country so i imagine there will be a protest but i dont think well see the d same kind of protests that we saw a year ago the problem is this is a very geo political problem in lebanon still you know theres still a battle between the u. S. And iran taking place in lebanon so i dont know if that if that will change well see any change locally in lebanon a lot on faith is very much tied to the big power brokers that run this country whether its iran or the u. S. Or france or other countries so well have to see what if there is an agreement between iran and the u. S. We could perhaps in the u. S. Maybe this will have some hope but you know lebanon is really a reality of these x. Warlords running a country that is really not a country at all in many ways lebanons not really a functioning state so this is kind of more perpetuating the same problem i think well have to wait for elections in this country to really see some kind of a change happening but inevitably lebanons problem is also economic this country has one of the biggest debts in the world today so how can you get out of that hole with a just some smiles and and putting the same faces back in power what we need is a desperate economic salvation for this country. Still ahead an aljazeera iran rejects actually zation is that along with russia its interfering in the 2020 us election.

And we stay here because we have to take care of our harvest and our land when it calms down we rush there to see what has been hit and feed the animals and then we come back we try to go there 3 times a day.

Its been 26 years since as a brit john was defeated by armenia but now its army is making territorial gains and theres a growing hope among many here that they will soon return to their lost land but at the.
