As aires, there was heavy security as his body was transported from the president ial palace to the cemetery, to be buried. Thousands of people lines that route to watch the funeral procession. But earlier there were scuffles between mourners and police. Trying to shut off access to a public wake images showed riot Police Firing tear gas at crowds whod been queuing there since the early morning. The countrys in the midst of 3 days of mourning for marathon, a few died on wednesday from a heart attack. Tourism has more from the capital for one day, argentinas president ial palace was field with football fans. Thousands came here to pay their respects to the eagle. My donor, the man, the myth, the coffin lane state and going to with a number 10 jersey that made him famous and says he was filled with emotion when he saw the coffin, not the level of it if they want to, we dont judge him for what he did with his life, but what he did for us, he gave the people happiness. Something that no politician has ever done. But i dont, i came from the poor slums of one of scientists and reached the top of the game. For many, he was a mirror of latin america, an example of the extremes that exist in this part of the world. But for his legions of argentine, fans might have the owner was like them. Similarly, god is dead. The god of the people of the poor, the one who represented all of us. Thats why im so sad. Argentina is in mourning, many of those on her are holding back of their lives. Others are crying and others food every came here to celebrate the life. And thats why theyre singing songs about what it is that you will not have or not have a special place in peoples hearts in this country. And thats why i wrote them on to say goodbye. And its not just in argentina, in italy, in the city of naples, where might have been a played for several years. People also got together to bid him farewell. Of course, although he thank you. He fully married the city, he really understood the essence and the soul of neapolitans. Therefore, hes seen as one of us might have known as passing comes as a shock to most argentines, because it puts an end to a part of this countrys history. For many, the able will become the day that some claimed he was while he was alive. That is how will one of us well turning to the current virus pandemic now and germany is imposing stricter lockdown measures as it struggles to suppress infections. Chancellor Angela Merkel says restrictions are likely to continue now into january. Shes also pushing for an e. U. Vote on shutting down ski resorts over the winter holidays, but thats getting a chilly reception in other european countries. As john mccain reports from selma in winter means snow and skiing at this resort to the danger of coded 19 has not prevented the slopes from opening and the skiers from enjoying them. Because all vocoded has killed more than 4000 people in switzerland. Officials here do not wanted to kill the economy too, and they say they have Protection Measures in place. Were trying to make it possible to do to skiing vacations, are a skiing day in sermons. And were trying hard at the moment to improve every possibility that its been offered. So with the distance socially, this thing masks whatever, because we believe we have to live with 90 but across the border in france, the view is different. More than 50000, people have died with covert 19 and ministers here fear a repeat of the kinds of super spread of ski events that occurred in austria and elsewhere at the start of the pandemic in europe. Maybe and on top of course it will be possible for everyone to go to ski resorts to enjoy the pure mountain air and the shops will be open except bars and restaurants. Because simply put, all the ski lifts on public facilities will be closed to the public. In burnley into there is a determination to try to prevent mass participation events. Whether in ski resorts or not right across the e. U. Governments. And we will try in europe to get an agreement on closing all ski areas. Unfortunately, judging by what the oceans are saying, it does not look like it is going to be easy to achieve. But we will give it another try. The feeling in the austrian capital is that those who want to close their ski resorts should have to compensate people whose revenue will disappear. Thats unlikely to please many politicians here in the german capital, who are already worried by the spiraling costs of the pandemic here, particularly now that theyve just agreed to extend the current lockdown until just before christmas. Dominic cain aljazeera. All drug company, astra zeneca, is now considering running another global trial for its current a virus vaccine. Amid questions about that success rate, Oxford University which partnered with the pharmaceutical firm, says some of the trial injections didnt have the right amount of vaccine due to a manufacturing era. University says its discussed the problem with regulators and agreed to complete the late stage trial with 2 groups. All the while health organizations, executive director, says the vaccine will allow for greater control of the coronavirus, bought my cry and want to put a vaccine. Says i, if that he had people to be mindful of behavior that increases the spread of the virus over the holidays. And he appealed for continued physical distancing measures to avoid fat lockdowns well as fight to early fats. And hes a vaccine ologist and Vice President of Vaccine Research and development at new willow biologics. He says, even with a vaccine, people must continue to follow the rules. I think there is a big problem if we just you know, relax and say we have a vaccine and everything is ready and we can go out and start our life as used to be. Thats really kind of a big mistake for everybody. Because having a vaccine is one thing and applying the vaccine to the community and do almost everybodys really huge task that was do months. And therefore if we just relax today, because we have a good that is also from a clinical trial, thats something that should be managed well. And we should not really who lacks order behaviors and our practice. And the vaccine itself. Although its a very big success for the 3 vaccines including the asteroid, seneca, there is still many open issues that you have to be answered before we get to the point where we say, ok, we need it, giving the vaccine to 65 and older where we have a weakened immune to immune system and therefore not having enough people in that particular is a big problem because then that that population will not benefit from a vaccine. Therefore, i know they are the highest risk people around. So therefore, it is an issue with regards to the 65. 00 and older moving on now, and the ethiopian Prime Minister has ordered a full final offensive on the northern t. Grave and says, a humanitarian corridor will be opened to help those fleeing. The conflict has warned residents to stay indoors after ordering the army to move in on the regional capital. A government imposed deadline, pentagram forces to surrender expired on wednesday as all follows, nearly 3 weeks of fighting now with hundreds killed and tens of thousands displaced. Now where there is following developments for us from nairobi in neighboring, kenya issued the ultimatum on sunday. And he said that graham fighters had 3 days to surrender, lay down their arms and head of what he said would be a final salt on the final assault on the regional capital of mackay, which is a city of about half a 1000000 people. Now since then, weve heard conflicting claims from both sides about how close the federal forces are to the city 70 kilometers 50 kilometers, even as close as 30 kilometers. But we havent yet heard any reports of shelling on the city itself, but this is something that rights organizations have expressed. Grave concern about because its such a dense population of civilians. Theyre saying be very dangerous if theres heavy fighting there at all. In the case of Amnesty International said that shelling of the city could even potentially constitute a war crime. The statement from the Prime Minister of the Prime Ministers office has said that the federal government started giving out humanitarian assistance, food, water, and medicines in the areas that it controls. It said its setting up for camps for the displaced people. Now the u. N. Said that about more than 800000. 00, people in the region were dependent on humanitarian assistance. Even before this conflict began and estimates an additional 1000000 are going to need assistance because many of the people have been displaced by the fighting in some of the smaller towns over the last few weeks. Because its not. The u. N. Says its not possible for their Partner Organizations to access these people. All these places that its not known exactly at this moment, how many people need help or where they are . Well, the un is warning of critical aid shortages in te grain. It says fuel cash and food are all running out. Many of those displaced have already fled to neighboring sudan out of syrias heavy. Morgan is that where we are is a calm thats not far from the sudan is here border. And its where more than 15000 refugees have arrived over the past 3 weeks. All of them saying that theyre escaping shelling that theyve seen people being slaughtered, that theyve left family members behind and came here for their safety. They say that because of the lack of telecommunication and because of lack of access to many parts of to agree they cant confirm whether their relatives who theyve left behind are still alive or not. But most of them say that when they came here, they had to wait for more than a week to be able to access aid and aid aid groups and international organizations. Say that thats largely because this influx of refugees happened. All of a sudden they were not expecting it for there. For example, the World Food Program said that it had to get food from other programs. It has in the country to be able to supply aid for those people who are here more than 40000. Refugees have already crossed into the sudan into the sudan side of the border here and got out of state as well as neighboring dishonesty. Now the biggest challenge when it comes to providing aid for, for those refugees, is the fact that most of the roads are very difficult to access. Logistically, lets not forget that sadam had a very exceptional flood season just a couple of months ago where most of the roads were examined. So aid groups say that logistically speaking, moving many of their songs to this area in response with the rise of the refugees would be very challenging. And there are concerns that they would be more than 200000. 00 refugees in sudan in the next 6 months. 8 are going to show that they are trying to step up so that no refugee is left in need. Hostile ahead here on a rock a bore, a is declared winner of sundays elections and became a faster. But the opposition continues to question the legitimacy of that voters plus a Turkish Court hands down hundreds of life sentences linked to the failed 2016 crew.

Hello again, im a star and lets remind you of our top stories this hour. The funeral of football legend diego maradona, has taken place at a cemetery in argentinas capital one of the aires the country has begun. 3 days of National Mourning for the neds injury footballer who died on wednesday from a heart attack. Astra zeneca is now considering running another global trial after it admitted its corona virus vaccine needs further research.

In germany is imposing stricter lockdown measures as it struggles to suppress coronavirus infections. Chancellor Angela Merkel says restrictions are likely to continue into january, and she is also pushing for the e. U. To close down the ski resorts over the winter holidays and england who replace its National Long town with a new system of regional tears. Next week there are 3 levels with different restrictions. Large parts of the country will still be under the strictest level. Paul brennan is in sevenoaks in kent, which will be on that tier 3. He says theres some frustration over how the rules have been applied. The end of the National Lockdown here in england wont come a minute too soon for many people and many livelihoods who have been impacted quite severely by the restrictions that have been imposed upon them in the past several weeks. But there are winners and losers from the new system. For example, liverpool will come out of the highest level of restriction thats 23 and move down to tier to london will stay. Interior to manchester will stay in tier 3, but only 3 areas will move to the lowest level of restrictions to warm the thick of sheppey. Of whites and cornwall and many other areas will move to tear to 3. And im in one of them. This is kent, the garden of england, as its described, the county of kent in the south east of england. Here there will be 2 or 3, but that is causing a lot of angst here because there is a big difference in fiction rates from one end of the country, county to the other. For example, ramsgate has a rolling 7 day average of around 570. 00 infections per 100000 here in sevenoaks. Its just 76 per 100000 that has an impact because staying in 2 or 3 means restaurants like this, the bar and probably over my shoulder, the restaurant thats behind me, have to stay close. They can only do take away a massive impact on their business. In the run up to christmas m. P. s for the local area on a happy. People are also not happy, but the government says its absolutely necessary to stay on top of this infection. Oh, meanwhile, millions of americans have been traveling over the thanksgiving holiday despite daya warnings from health experts. Them to stay at home to try to stem the spread of the current virus. The u. S. Transportation Security Administration says nearly 6000000. People took flights from friday to wednesday, and on wednesday, the day before the thanksgiving holiday, 1000000 people pass through airport security. On that day, the u. S. Reported 2400 deaths linked to that 19. Officials a fear that numbers will increase and of people to scale back their celebrations. Lets speak to professor Lawrence Gostin. Hes the founding oneill, chair in Global Health at georgetown university. He joins us now from washington. D. C. Professor, were looking at record numbers of infections across the country and deaths are also soaring. Are people intentionally disregarding advice by travelling well, or is this pandemic fatigue . Do you think . Well, its a combination of a lot of things. And i dont think this willfulness but i think its pretty clear to people all around the world that the United States is so politically bitterly divided. And so the simplest things, Like Public Health warnings, about masks or mass gatherings. All of these things are, you know, highly political, literally just today, the u. S. Supreme Court Reversed itself and decided that new york state couldnt put a restriction on gatherin because it violated freedom of religion. So this is, you know, and then theres fatigue. This is a really serious problem. The vaccine just cant come quickly enough for the United States. Were going to see tens upon tens of thousands of people dying were really preventable professor. I remember when people ignored travel advice and went to that stuff just mostly by probably back in august that became a super spreader event. Not just in one community, but across the midwest throughout the country. Do you think we should be bracing for something similar after thanksgiving . Given the travel trends that weve been saying, oh, youll see worse, youll see far worse than that. That was just one man. And this is, you know, millions of people traveling, getting together with family for celebrations. Its. Its the american thanksgiving, which is our most celebrated and traveled. Holiday people will be laughing, talking indoor spaces because its cold in parts of america. And so were going to see weve already seen huge spikes in cases. And thats going to be even more concerning in the, in the days and weeks to come, but also are already at the the brink. And i could see many of our ospital, particularly in rural areas being whelmed. And this is now re
