Grapples with conflicting accounts of how he was assassinated. Anger on the streets of delhi farmers vent their frustration towards the governments new agricultural legislation and the governing body of world motor sport have launched an investigation into the great escape as his car burst into flames. On the opening u. S. Drugmaker modernity has announced its asking american and european regulators for emergency use of its covert 900 vaccine. On monday, after it got the final results needed to confirm its more than 94 percent effective is just behind pfizer and its german partner by own tack in asking to start vaccinations in the u. S. In december. Pfizer says their vaccine is 95 percent effective against code 19. The f. D. A. Says theyll be a public debate of the evidence of each vaccine. Pfizers will be 1st up on december. The 10th modernity is set to happen a week later. All across the atlantic, british regulators are assessing the fires a shot, but theyre also looking at another company from the u. K. Astra zeneca. Oh it says there is on average 70 percent effective, but can be 90 percent depending on the dosage. Lets cross over now to our White House CorrespondentKimberly Halkett joins us live from washington. D. C. So does it look like theyre going to get quick approval there, then . Kimberly well, pending those hearings that you talked about in mid december, that is a critical determination. But just to give you a sense of how this process works, merge and see authorization is something that is determined under the Public Health service act. And given the fact that cope with 19 was determined to be emergency back in january of 2020. So early this year, this is going to allow for this a merge and see determination. And that is something that both companies mcgurn of pfizer have both requested. So pending the outcome of those hearings that will be done through the food and drug administration. What it means is that this is a sort of a process following these phase 3 trials that have occurred and shown in both cases for these vaccines to be extremely effective. That they could quickly be rushed into production and into the marketplace. As early as the end of this year, which is something that President Donald Trump has repeatedly said would happen and has also been trying to take credit for given the fact that much of these have been developed using funds from what he called operation warp speed. And kambli seems like people didnt take very seriously the government warnings about, you know, the pleas not to travel over thanksgiving. How seriously are they taking the latest talk about people dont really, you know, take it seriously. Coming into christmas. Well, Public Health officials are gravely concerned. They issued numerous warnings prior to the american thanksgiving holiday. And just to give you a sense of how important this holiday is, it is the one where most americans will travel great distances to spend time with their families. More than any other holiday throughout the year. So Many Americans, in fact, millions of them did not heed the warnings of Public Health officials. And so what theyre concerned about is that come 2 weeks from now, following the incubation period, that essentially in all 50 states, there are going to be seeds planted for what could be a dire Public Health emergency, even on the scale of what one Public Health official called a Natural Disaster already, weve seen the infections hitting new records and as well, the deaths and also hospitalisation. So the concern is that things are only going to get worse heading into the christmas holiday. And so people are being advised to get tested to lay low, but again, as youve mentioned, Many Americans did not listen to those warnings. Feeling that they would be ok or that the risk morn is great, is the Public Health officials were making it out to be. All right, thanks so much. Kimberly. How could, lets take this corona conversation over the other side of the atlantic. Jonah, how is standing by live for us in the u. K. And jonah, regardless of what the regulators decide to do with the vaccine approvals that are ramping up, testing where you arent you know, they are, and with very good reason in the run up to christmas just all the vaccine point, i mean, the u. K. It is anticipated may in a matter of days be the 1st country to license the pfizer biotech vaccine that you were speaking about earlier. Thats the other vaccine coming out of the u. S. Market. A collaboration with a german company, and each anticipated that they may begin rolling out vaccines, start members in the national Health Service as early as next week. But of course, that is a long, long way from vaccinating the entire population, much less the global population. Nobody can say even how effective any Vaccination Program might be. There are questions about public take up of the vaccine with so much antibiotics opinion about how much immunity does a vaccine can for how long mutations of the virus and so on. So this drive to get fast accurate testing in place is still a vital goal in terms of living with the vaccine in time to come. The u. K. Has been trialing rapid tests for some time. Now, starting in the city of liverpool now, including universities across the country, im at the Montfort University in leicester, one of 132 English Universities taking part theyre testing mass testing students in the hope of being able to send them home for the Christmas Holidays with a clean bill of health so that they dont cede the virus back into their Home Communities to elderly relatives and so on. The problem is that this mass testing Rapid Testing technology isnt always as effective as one would hope. The government itself admits that the tests that its giving up on not always reliable. So the reality is that despite these efforts quite a lot of people are going to be given a clean bill of health and sent home when in fact they are still infectious. This all could backfire on the government yet. Thanks so much, jonah hill from london. Now if the o. P. s Prime Minister has told parliament federal forces have not killed a single civilian during the 3 week conflict in the tea grey region. And insists the army will not destroy the regional capital. Michaela after capturing it for the tigre, a Peoples Liberation front say theyre still fighting federal soldiers near the city. Hundreds of people have died and thousands forced to flee to neighboring sudan. That another important part of getting at the, not the most important, every target has been signed and approved. The house can see that every missile launched is backed by a signature of authority. 99 percent of them hit their targets and 99 percent of them didnt have collateral. No countrys army can show this kind of performance. Our army is disciplined and victorious. He said, you will destroy mckelway and so on. May kill is ours. It was built with our own resources, we are not going to destroy it, not even a Single Person was affected by the operation. Lets go to malcolm webb now is live for us from nairobi, sir, as you heard there, official saying theres been no civilian casualties. Is it possible to verify any of these claims its very difficult because the phone lines in the internet, in the whole of the seagrave region of being cut off for weeks, has been very little access. Press and for humanitarian work. Left contradicts Prime Minister. Its claims, as they say that many civilians have been killed, including civilians being targeted in government airstrikes, something that the government side denies. Both sides have been accused of massacring hundreds of civilians. Both sides have denied it with the t. P. L. F. Made some more claim theyve said that they shot down an Ethiopian Government military aircraft. They say that theyre fighting on all fronts around the city of macquarie, and that theyve retaken a small town. These are claims that the Prime Ministers spokesperson has disregarded delusional. All right, thanks so much live for us from nairobi. Aid agencies and volunteers are helping tens of thousands of ethiopian refugees in makeshift camps in eastern sudan, regain a sense of normality. In this report from one of those camps. There is no blackboard or chalk or notebooks, but theres a sparkle of hope in the eyes of these young each open refugees trying to start a new life amid the toughest of conditions. The makeshift school at the camp is sponsored by the norwegian refugees council. One of the things were trying to do is to give them a sense of normalcy, but a sense of stability by setting up some temporary learning spaces for they have some classes every day, something to do, but also something to learn from. In this really chaotic period of their life so far we set up 10 classes. 2 shifts a day. We hope that is about a 100 children that we can help in the 1st instance. Theres probably going to be a few 1000 children already. Theres an estimated 3000 children in this camp. Many of them had their education disrupted when fighting broke out between the each open federal army and that ukraine Peoples Liberation front. A few weeks ago, they were forced to flee with their families, relief agencies speak of a number of unaccompanied children in need of special care. Some are showing signs of trauma. Others are barely coping with the sudden change in their lives. Some have had it even worse, the letter sultan hasnt been able to find any trace of his wife and 2 young daughters since the 1st raids on the green town of ramallah by the Sudanese Border a few weeks ago, a little im a little thin animal. I just couldnt find them. They could be dead or alive, but theres no idea what happened to them. I was not home when the attack took place. People fled in every direction, they could. My family is gone. Were still at the camp and the us suddenly looks like an old place where some of the old its europeans here. Its history repeating, itself. Because back in the 1980 s. , this building served as a school for some of them asked child refugees. In the 1980 s. Effigies came here, fleeing a famine that coincided with and resulted from years of fighting between 2 great rebels and the Central Government of former communist dictator, mengistu, haile mariam. The animosity that conflict had created still lingers. Today here in the camp. Greens are teaching their children in english, not america, which is the main official language of the federal republic of each opiah, a sign of the mammoth task ahead for Prime Minister ahmed in his effort to restore National Unity on Mohammed Vall is in the camp for displaced people and sudans get out of state joins us live from there. Mohammed as you probably have heard, so the Prime Minister of ethiopia saying, no civilians have been hurt in the government offensive. What are you hearing about that from some of the civilians who flee to the camp where you are your son . It depends on what he means by hurt. If he is a killings and you know we dont have numbers, we dont have figures. We dont have any proof to to validate the claims that many people have been killed. People here talk about seeing people being killed, but they dont have any proof of that. In terms of visuals, videos or any pictures. We havent also met many people who say my brother has been killed. My father has been killed or my mom or my sisters or my relatives, but they talk about seeing people being killed and they talk about separation from their loved ones. Theres a lot of stories, individual stories of people who lost any touch with any contact with family members. Thats very widespread story here. So in terms of the trauma, there is that trauma, in terms of the hurt, there is the head because these are thousands like 44000. People have fled their homes. That must be a sign of something. But we dont have a specific proof of someone being killed or a massacre being, being committed here. People are here trying to cope with the new reality that this war has brought into their lives. Their daily struggle is about food, about, about shelter, about water Drinking Water and things like this. And even more or perhaps equally problematic for them or difficult for them is the inability to reach out and to talk to their loved ones who are separated from them. They cant talk to anybody about back home because there is no communication line that they can use. Thats a very difficult situation for them. They dont know whats happening back home and the, the situation. Now, the numbers have come down a little bit during the last few days, but the people are still coming. Some of them talk about roads being blocked by militia, in the, in the, on the around the crossings between sudan and the g. O. P. Talking about difficulties reaching this place and difficulties even in this space because many of them are still sleeping rough. They dont have to sleep on. They dont have enough food that he is distributing food and also local n. G. O. S. But the quality of that food, they dont like it because they think it is repetitive, like every day they have the same kind of food and they think that they need variety so that they can you know, remain healthy in this desperate situation. Thanks so much. Mohammed vall, irans Top Nuclear Scientist is being buried following his assassination on friday. A large Funeral Service has been held in the capital to harrar honoring martin. Irans leaders are blaming israel for the killing, vowing to retaliate how you got to know how to handle. We are all gathered here next to one another before the body of our beloved martyr and valid to him that we will be more cohesive, more result, and our determination to continue down your path will be stronger. We will continue down the path of advancement of this nation with greater speed and strength. The head of irans Top National Security body says there have been stabbed assassination attempts on factories are. There is life over the past 20 years and security around them had been bolstered. Our Intelligence Services have the information that he was a target and even knew that on the same spot he was killed. An attempt was going to be made against him. His protection was intensified, however, this time enemy utilized a completely new professional and sophisticated method. And all, fortunately succeeded after 20 years and reached its goal. Also, jobar is in teheran. So how is that funeral rallying or amiens dosser . Well, given the Current Situation of the pandemic inside iran, this was fairly, a small gathering, the people that attended the ceremony were also trying to abide by spacing, their positions from each other. So there was a large presence of the top officials within the country at the events that took place at the defense ministry. On monday, we saw the head of the revolutionary guard. We saw the intelligence minister as well as the head of irans Atomic Energy organization. They all are sharing the same thought that this needs to be respond, that this act cannot go unpunished. There is a sensitive around that the perpetrators of this act really took advantage of the situation inside iran. The question of what everyone is asking is how this could have happened given the political situation in the country, how secure they say the security apparatuses are. But we are waiting to hear from the intelligence minister who said that they will issue a statement about the specific chain of events that led to fact we saw the death on friday afternoon. The other issue here is how iran will respond. The president Hassan Rouhani has said that israel is behind this attack, as well as the foreign minister. And weve heard from the Supreme Leader who said that the perpetrators have to be brought to justice as well as those who ordered this attack. So there is a sense that there has to be a response, but what kind of response is not very clear. There is a sense that iran will not respond militarily. That is not something theyre interested in. But there is a conservative voice within the country that is pushing for that, but its very likely, given the fact that the incoming u. S. Administration of joe biden is taking over in january, the iranians will wait to try and see what they can do with the events that have unfolded, but there is a very strong sense that there needs to be a message that sent out that iran is still very much a safe place. This is not the 1st time a Nuclear Scientist has been assassinated. It is not the 1st time that they pointed the finger at israel, but it is the 1st time that this was this kind of attack. It was very much a cord needed attack a number of people involved in this attack. Its the 1st time, such a type of an attack was carried out successfully in iran, and that is what is causing a lot of concern about his daughter. Plenty more still ahead on the news hour, including refusing to say, sorry, Chinas Foreign Ministry says it wont apologize for tweeting a fake image of an the straightly and soldier coronavirus is causing more deaths in subsaharan africa, but not through people catching covert. 90 and installed the Major League Soccer season is reaching its climax from the playoffs.
