As the error message suggests - manifest merging that takes place as part of the Android build process has failed. You have the same element declared in 2 different AndroidManifest.xml files, only with slightly different settings. The build process tries to merge all manifests together but fails, since it doesn't know how to handle this case.

From the error message, here is the element that cannot be merged:

 <activity
     @android:name="com.unity3d.ads.android.view.UnityAdsFullscreenActivity"
     @tools:ignore="UnusedAttribute"
     @xmlns:tools="tools">
 </activity>

and:

 <activity
     @android:name="com.unity3d.ads.android.view.UnityAdsFullscreenActivity"
     @tools:ignore="UnusedAttribute">
 </activity>

You have the UnityAdsFullscreenActivity defined in 2 manifests, but one of them specifies the "xmlns:tools" setting while the other doesn't. There's no point in defining this activity more than once. Find out the locations where it is set and make sure it is only defined once. This should solve your problem.
