Raising fears that the death toll from this brutal attack could still rise. Our correspondent on a 5 chars and legos nigeria and joins us now from there. Funny, theres some uncertainty about the death toll. What else can you tell us . There are conflicting numbers. The states governor is speaking about at least 70 People Killed. And the United Nations reports at least 110 People Killed in this horrendous attack that was carried out suspected by a book or a militants on saturday. Regardless, not just ho. Hi, this death toll is obviously one fact is clear that the way this is being carried out carries unfortunately, trademark the hand signature if you will, of the militants that operate in this region in the north east of nigeria, that could be a book or a Splinter Group of a book or i mean self, theyre also very active in the neighboring countries income ruined in chad in nigeria. Now the problem that nigeria is facing is a problem that this country is facing for more than a decade now. The military here, the oath or it is in this country, have not been able to point to pain this op rising this insurgency to start in 2009, not just recently. In fact, this month, the military carried out in this region with this massacre happened. Various asked strikes and theyre speaking about a resurgence of a terrorist activity. But at the same time, the people here on in the grass on the ground here in nigeria are disappointed because they are saying that the government is not able to contain this violence to fulfill their promise. And to reduce at least a violence if they can stop it completely hot. But this is not the 1st massacre of this kind. As you mentioned, and nigerians just happy what does that mean for the stability of the government that well, president warry actually spoke through his spokesperson yesterday that hes saying that the Nigerian Military has received all support necessary to make sure that the population of nigeria is protected however, when you look whats happening on the ground, the situation is rather any control beyond the control, it seems of the nigerian authorities not only since the massacre obviously, but these attacks happen almost daily in various parts of the country, especially in the north east. So the question really is, what is the solution for this . And when you talk to people here, especially in lagos, that has been shocked by another masaka as they called it, a terrible shooting a couple of weeks ago. But the military was deployed to actually disperse a peaceful crowd that was a protesting the government and their inability of containing so many problems there saying the military should really get their act together and make show that they are focusing on containing terrorism and not containing Peaceful Protesters for example, that we have seen during the past weeks here in nigeria, protesting the Nigerian Government police brutality, but also their inability to contain terrorism in the north east of the country to the charge.

Australias Prime Minister has condemned a fake image posted by china depicting an australian shoal soldier, apparently murdering an afghan child of australia has demanded china apologize for the pick something which was posted on a government twitter account. Meanwhile, china has australia to apologize to the afghan people. It follows with porter earlier this month about the conduct of australian soldiers in afghanistan, the latest in a series of disputes between the 2 Major Trading partners. But i spoke to journalist roger mayne of in sydney. He had more on the australian Prime Ministers furious reaction to the chinese with a post. He branded the image as as repugnant. Any demanded what he called this truly offensive image be removed from the social media site and he demanded an immediate apology for what he described as an outrageous and disgusting slur. Now the, the post alludes to the findings of a report into the alleged murder of afghan civilians and prisoners of war by members of australias elite special. This is group, while they were based in afghanistan, several years ago. Now these allegations have not been proven in a court of law and chinas insensitive response as had the capacity to further damage relations quite seriously. Between the 2 countries are furious. Marzan said the Chinese Government should be totally ashamed of this post. Parts of these 2 countries are big trading partners. Is there any sign either side will try to make amends . Well, are not at the moment. Certainly. The row will further, obviously, further damage relations between cameroon, beijing, both countries in the middle of a trade war which has led to the suspension of australian exports, including beef and barley, shellfish, timber, and wine.

And a ban on Public Assembly is now in force in another hot spot. Good for housing in the countrys center, thats after hundreds of residents demonstrated their guns locked down restrictions last week. Piece in the just have attracted nation by detention in germany. People singing walking side by side, ignoring coronavirus restrictions. Right . Around 400 people took part in the protest against rick pandemic control measures in his book housing, a coronavirus hotspot, district administrator to miss mina was shocked by the demonstration, cruel, and sing in its macabre that people operating through the town singing at the top of their voices when people are dying in hospital, something needs to be said about that, and thats what i did. And then to be threatened, that makes it even was true, none of those place and home and no under police protection. Youve received Death Threats on social media. After criticizing that, demonstrators, when we visited several days after the protest, calm had returned to the center of his book house and the lock down. This keeping many indoors. A few people out on the streets. Aside from the police, we decided to find some locals to hear what they have to say about such demonstrations in that town. And without the protests and denials, maybe it would be possible to make a fuss, no progress with disunity hits, stupid, considering everything. Things are, as they are, and we just need to get through this too few mentions who feel too many people too much ignoring of the restrictions. Its simply irresponsible. Yeah. The town has now imposed a ban on registered public gatherings. The divide here, the next demonstration looks likely to happen soon.

I say its dangerous. Its dangerous, not only for yourselves, but also from others. United does not help the situation and his book housing hopes that infection rates will go down soon and with it. The nationwide attention corona virus situation in germany, im now joined by the chief political correspondent, linda kremlin. Germany was considered to be a relative Success Story compared to some of its neighbors with lower rates and sections, mortality at the beginning of the year. Whats changed now . Well, one thing that changed is simply the advent of colder weather. As you know, infection rates started to rise in early october as people began to essentially move indoors. And we know now that the virus is transmitted by aerosol droplets and the transmission is simply much more effective in closed rooms. So thats one thing that changed, and the fact is that whereas in spring, the authorities acted pretty quickly and firmly and uniformly here, it took a lot longer for the federal states and the federal government to agree on the measures that needed to be put in place they were put in place in mid november, and we have seen we splashed toe to some degree since then. But the other thing that is certainly perhaps inhibiting the kind of compliance that we saw in the spring, is that theres been a lot of public disagreement between different states about how many rules to put in place and how strict those rules should be. And therefore, i think some citizens are simply confused about what rules they ought to be obeying. And therefore we hear remarks like the one in the report that the where she said, you know, theres just too little full compliance shelters. Germany has been, as you mentioned in the, in a partial lockdown for nearly a month now. And yet, numbers all stubbornly high. How serious is the situation in germany right now . Well, just to put it in context, we are seeing daily infection rates as high as 4 times what we saw in the spring rates on some days 23000 new cases, where in the spring the highs were 6000 new cases. However, the mortality rate hasnt actually gone up when on approach, capita basis. Whats been put in place limits on gatherings, gatherings of families. 5 people only in december, going up to 10 over the Christmas Holiday bars. Restaurants, closed fitness studios, close schools, still open for now. But theres a lot of discussion about whether it should stay that way. So we do have partial restrictions in place that we saw in that report. Some people have, of course, been protesting. Do they reflect the overall mood . No, absolutely not. No matter how you break it down, whether you look at families with children or without children, whether you look at people across the country or simply in the eastern part of the country. There is widespread support for the measures with 70 to 80 percent of germans saying they think restrictions are correct and that they will be complying with them voluntarily anyway, that they dont intend to meet big family gatherings at christmas. And interestingly enough, a big majority of germans also saying that they dont feel their personal Economic Situation or their job is really at risk. So also a lot of Public Confidence about the path forward economically. Linda grant that thank you. And this is the time to have a look at some of the other developments in the coronavirus pandemic. The United States top Infectious Disease expert dr. Anthony fauci is warning of surge after surge of new cases related to holiday gatherings. He said a spike 2. 00 to 3. 00 weeks after thanksgiving was likely to be followed by another one after christmas.

Donna diego was the most rebellious, personally with more independence and autonomy than anyone i have ever met. And within that he decided everything. No, im not hiding anything. There is nothing to hide. I did my best and more. I know what i did. Im proud of what i did and what all the doctors did for diego. Obviously, i regret how it ended, but i guarantee we did our best for diego.
