Is 1st hand the damage of war between armenia and azerbaijan since hostilities resumed in late september. And despite the ceasefire shells still fall on azerbaijani controlled territory as fighting continues. Its 3 am here in moscow and youre watching R T International im donald quarter welcome to the program. Starting in Europe Health workers in france say the country hasnt learned its lesson from the 1st wave of covert 19 there protesting a lack of hospital resources still needed to effectively fight the pandemic it comes after new curfews were announced in a number of big cities Charlotte Dubinsky reports from paris. The protesters here all forming what is a nationwide day of protests by Health Workers across vaults and they are protesting because they say they are simply exhausted exhausted by not just the 1st wave of the cave 19 pandemic but then having to catch a polar appointments during the summer and now theyre facing this 2nd wave and they say that it is worse than ever they also say that the government has been treating them like fools they all fear youre saying that there are not enough stuff in the hospitals and they dont being paid enough so the government did bump up pay for Health Workers by around 90. 00 euros a month from september but the health would you say that just isnt enough to compensate them for the sheer volume of work that they do you know most of the danger theyre putting themselves in at the moment and they demanding a massive recruitment drive and a significant pay increase now own wednesday night president. Of the Health Workers aust facing a joyous situation this is what he had to say. Our Emergency Rooms and our hospitals are in a more worrying situation than in march because we dont have a reserve of beds which is why we have to take measures that are more strict. Now in a bid to try and ease the pressure on the hospitals in the fact that there are sometimes more than 20000 people a day testing positive for 19 with a few 100 people a day go going into hospitals present i know that they would be in the worst hit areas of france that is knowing regions across the country including here in paris is going to come into force on saturday and it will be activated from 9 pm every evening until 6 am in the morning those people who are not authorized to be outside or face fines of 135 years for a 1st offense but that could go up to 1500 euros for repeated offenders the idea that they want to try and fight the virus to keep people in at night now ive been speaking some of the Health Workers here and they are not convinced that it could you is going to help them reduce the number of people who need hospital treatment because of the pandemic we also have it is a measure that can be beneficial but who see what happens i think it is not enough. The curfew is not the only problem we lack hospital bats yes code 900 something dramatic but thats not the only thing that affects the hospitals it is the destruction of Public Services and the destruction of hospitals as well the curfews not going to solve the problem. Since the start of the Coronavirus Crisis nothing was clearly done the number of hospital beds was not increased and its not the folds of a lack of training nursing staff cannot be magic out of the hat it is the responsibility of all ministers and president. Well this comes on the same day that the office is in the home of the Current Health and. On the current director of health as well as the former Prime Minister of france and the former Health Minister of france well all searched by the police this is part of an investigation thats taking place into whether they handled the crisis at the beginning of the code 900 demick correctly or not there are allegations that theyre facing that they didnt do their job they didnt protect people in france but the fact that they didnt give out face must in fact the advice during the 1st way for the pandemic was only 12 facemask if you have to prove it 19 or you suspected that you had it so theyre saying that there was a problem that they are now facing charges that they. Even voluntary homicide and in danger in the life if any of them all found guilty of that they could face up to choose years in jail and face a fine of 300000 euros at the protest the nationwide protests taking place across france today Health Workers once again out on the streets demanding more stuff pay in the face of the 19. 00 pandemic. Russias quick talks with australia and the netherlands over the downing of Malaysian Airlines flight m. H. 17 the tragedy which claimed almost 300 lives took place over Eastern Ukraine in 2014 a murder trial is currently under way involving 3 russians and ukrainians accused of involvement earlier my colleagues maria phenomena and sausage taylor broke down the details. It is explained in the document the last straw for russia was the government of the netherlands filing a lawsuit against russia in the European Court for human rights alleging mosca had played their role in the mh 17 passenger airplane crash back in 2014 and russia denies all the allegations accusing the now the lens of being interested in only putin all the blame on russia rather than fighting the truth here is the russias foreign minister in the dutch movies considered yet another blow to russian dutch relations and the hague courts determination contrary to common sense is to continue on the wrong path of unilateral attribution of responsibility to russia for what happened in the sky above donbass such unfriendly acts by the netherlands make it senseless for us to continue to participate in the 3 way consultations responsibility for the breakdown of the consultations those lies are entirely with the hague will receive the netherlands reaction they say they deeply regret that russia to decision but by the way in the same announcement of Russias Foreign Ministry it is explained that the only are right now out of this Consultation Team that they will continue with the Netherlands Services involved in the investigation 6 years has passed what do we know about the tragedy well i remember that day july 17th 20143 months off to kiev launched what it called a massive Counter Terror in Eastern Ukraine using advocation havea tillery tanks i was there on the ground since day one and i remember how quickly turning into a very bloody deadly operation the situation on the ground was boiling it was really dramatic the real war in fact was raging when these tragedy happened to bob. And ukraine the investigation has been going on every since and to today we did not know exactly what had happened these are the key points. So and together and forces were very quick to accuse. The lens back the position. And according to the joint Investigation Team the plane was brought down by book surface to air. From the rebel controlled territory but interesting is that no satellite supported. Version is that russia has been complaining that the netherlands do not accept russias documents and russias materials he is russias president Vladimir Putin talking about it whatever the present it doesnt say anything we have. Presented its but no one wants to listen to us and unless there is dialogue we will not find the right response to the questions that still remain on. The tragedy of. The deaths of people and we mourn these deaths and we believe that. Such incidents are unacceptable so you understand what we hear today from Russias Foreign Ministry didnt start yesterday all this. Misunderstanding has been piling for months and years long time reservations about it does anyone else. Questioning the investigation it was Malaysia Airline plane and malaysia is supporting. The whole investigation and the investigation is politicized from the. We see too much politics in the the idea was not to find out how this happened when not on there but you seem to be concerned that it did play need to be in need on russia headed mean a new tube by the regime in the end making conclusions we. Only sweeping through the except may here we have but these who have some political interests in the matter what is important now is that yes russia is out of 3 way consultations at moscow says it is open and ready to cooperate with another lead Services Another country sarasate anybody involved in the investigation anybody interested in finding the trove we got reaction to russia quoting the talks from a number of politicians and analysts. Feel that it judgement has already been made by the dutch and by the australians and that russia is guilty and nor their option should be considered. The new conclusive evidence and therefore russia is saying that despite all the information and data. Over by the russians it doesnt make any difference to the fact that that verdict has been basically made by the dutch the strohs that russia is that way and thats the source of the frustration here which is where russia. Is very sensible to pull out issued an apology and actually the dutch need to answer the question as to why they were taking this process beyond the investigation they were running with the russians at one point the australians there was a little triumvirate that was looking into the matter and then the dutch ran away from that investigation and decided to kick it up stairs to the European Court of human rights why it was far too early we can see clearly that there is a one sided in investigation and of course its necessary if you want to find out what happened to all evidence which are presented doesnt matter by which side are taken into account. I would like if the International Community of the United Nation or anyone who could be independent would really find a way or an instance which independently takes into account every evidence which is true only to. Our mania and azerbaijan continue to level accusations against each other in a decades old territorial dispute that sparked back into life just weeks ago either start of travel to a cathedral in the garden a car that now bears the scars of a recent exchange in the conflict. The war in the going to care about has not just about trivial territorial gains its a long lasting it with lots of bad blood between both sides and recently it has spilled into a new turf religious this 19th century only savior cathedral was a place where soldiers and volunteers alike used to come and pray before heading into battle that made it a target but it wasnt just soldiers who would come to this church the a Syrian Military was battering the town of shushi at that time so i learned and her family decided to hide from the bombs in the cathedral script one place they thought that was safe from the shelling but they were wrong. Does not have to now and there were 7 of us including 2 children when the shell hit the cathedral it was deafening there was destruction everywhere masonry fell from the searing thats all they can remember 2 strikes have literally eating everything in their path the altar the benches and one of the domes have been completely destroyed no place is sacred no place is safe in this war not only was this church hit twice but the 2nd strike injured 3 russian journalists one of them is still in intensive care after spending several days in a coma he believes the hit on them was intentional the streets of shushi bear a striking resemblance to those in other towns of Nagorno Karabakh its a place of desolation and despair those who can fight are already on the front lines those who had somewhere to run already have done but alone or doesnt have any choice but to stay have a story in mind we have to fit in this small shelter with a kitchen and badger in the same place we are too scared to go with doors when we hear the sound of the sirens we are rushing here to hide every even in the reason we can hear the shelling people seem to be unfazed by the story state of the cathedral theres plenty of candles still burning. In the hof destroying rules of the Church People praying for peace to return to this land sooner rather than later you can see don of reporting from the going to come back. Azerbaijans president has claimed if his forces were responsible for the attack on that church it was unintentional he also called for an investigation into how it happened meanwhile boch who has accused armenia of a shelling attack on its territory. That footage comes from the town of turk terror which came under bombardment this week according to the azerbaijani government both nations deny violating the cease fire the fighting has forced many to flee to safety although some of decided to take their chances and stay behind. Theyve been countless attacks this morning they showed us soldiers here luckily the civilians everything we see here and watch the shooting 1st coming from the armenian summit and then from these areas and then it fell on the roofs of our houses there is new fear soldiers a fleeting even then why should we be scared here we should not be. A contested region is mostly inhabited by Ethnic Armenians but is legally recognized as part of azerbaijan when hostilities 1st reserve resume and International Medical staff offered their help we heard from those who are some of those medics right now who are in the conflict zone. At the new edition of the its no easy decision for any doctor to leave behind a content life and go to war here of course its not hand to hand combat but the threat is there every 2nd i just followed my heart i went through the 1st war as a student observe military medicine i gained experience and admired the doctors who saved lives i think it was imprinted on my mind having a broad experience in emergency medicine i didnt want to sit idle i wanted to share my experience my knowledge and save any life possible goes all the good it was going to at 1st sight these are minor injuries small scratches in fact the x. Rays show a splintered bones in 2 or muscles all this suggests that the weaponry has changed a lot there are a few cases of gunshot wounds here basically these are injuries from explosive mines cluster rockets and so one theyre high energy explosives which leaf in comparable damage where my colleagues and i have been here since day one of the war and honestly we work 247 at the hospital i cant understand the enthusiasm of some to continue this war even if people dont die there are still those seriously injured and adequate response is needed here to ensure a way to end all of this. Was a monstrous all wars are appalling its horrifying Health Damage the bodies of soldiers of that brought in more and more young guys with horrible injuries some will die some will be disabled it is very hard from a psychological point of view its a real shock for us even though it would seem the were used to pain. Bigger death tolls and chronic unemployment thats what the u. K. Is opposition says will come from the Prime Ministers escalating coronavirus measures more on that among our stories after the break. Actually its very Interesting Times because of the phone then because the truth is you know way of life this social experiment if we dont. Know it is good to.

To join us in the depths. Or a maid in the shallows. Welcome back to the program now russia has vowed to respond to new british and eve sanctions over the alleged nerve agent poisoning of kremlin critic alex sane of all me the penalties target 6 russian individuals and one state entity moscow has repeatedly denied its involvement. Because michigan year sidesteps wont be left without a suitable response we would like to remind you that it was believed in which is openly shared in its international is possibilities to assist russia in investigating the incident which happened to russian citizens and you will use this story to deliver accusations. And threats against our country once again taking the lead role in empty russian sanctions among the e. U. And other International Bodies sonthi for the European Council house confident that it will be putting in place sanctions against russia for the alleged poisoning of alexina violently we pretty much knew this was coming it was approved by the 27 Member StatesForeign Ministers on monday the council putting the rubber stamp to it on thursday what the sanctions will do is theyll target 6 senior officials and warn organization they will be taking the form of travel bans and asset freezes they are the type of sanctions the e. U. Committee the council can push through unilaterally following the announcement from brussels there was also an announcement from london where the United Kingdom has also said that they will be imposing similar sanctions against similar entities for what they say is the use of a chemical weapon by russia now what this is perhaps more interesting for is what the russian reaction will be earlier in the week we heard from saturday a lover of the Russian Foreign minister who suggested that there could be a suspension of diplomatic ties between moscow and brussels should the sanctions be put in place he also said that russia would be assessing how it did business in europe last time there was no go through a process the question is not just whether business as usual is possible but whether any business with the European Union is possible at all the e. U. Behaves arrogantly towards those and looks condescendingly down at russia demanding answers from us for all the crimes that in my. Since we have committed i think were under no obligation to response about you the sanctions were proposed by france and germany in the document put forward berlin and paris say that theyre looking to target individuals responsible for the poisoning of mist in the family also a body involved in the chemical weapons program. Russia must continue to explain itself over the attack on alexina valmy and the use of a banned Chemical Warfare agent much more than has been the case so far and weve repeatedly emphasized that such behavior cannot remain without consequences and therefore sanctions were decided by the e. U. Unanimously and very quickly. Russia denies the allegations that have been made against it moscow sent for official requests to berlin for germany to share the information the evidence that germany says it has of the poisoning of alexina valley russia needs that information they say in order to carry out an investigation the Russian Foreign minister has encouraged his European Partners to observe well the set and standard of International Law he would also use the ease approach to the novotny case is totally unacceptable 5 e. U. Countries claim they have established the truth but when we request them to provide evidence of their conclusions that they say this is outrageous so let me be clear all we want is for the e. U. In germany to abide by International Law there are the conventions on cooperation in criminal probes we appeal to those conventions asking germany to abide by the norms of International Law and germany basically replies by saying you know what you have International Law but we have our own rules and the rule is this if you dont believe you are guilty it was back in august that alexei in the family took ill on a flight from siberia to moscow he was brought here to berlin where he spent 2 weeks in a juge coma receiving treatment of a shot at a hospital he was discharged last week as he continues to recover here in the german capital more and more questions are being raised about what exactly happened to him and who was behind what happened to him everybody is a little bit surprised that we saw out any of the results when you prove you decide to sanction and this decision in fact is the sign of. Weakness of the european there is just to how the steps of sunshine between russia and europe and we so that in Europe Institution there is some countries there is some members of European Parliament who want to have. Relation and want to make damn sure and between europe and russia. A new coronavirus milestone was passed in the u. K. On wednesday after the country clocked up its highest daily number of infections so far at more than 19000. 00 it comes as parliament is turning increasingly frustrated at the governments handling of the Health CrisisKate Partridge reports from london if coronavirus has taught us and the u.
