iceland. sites is up told to keep away from the mountain, shooting fountains of lava high into the. the gulf is welcome to the program. european union countries have agreed on a series of sweeping reforms to the blocks asylum system of the use of negotiations . a majority of member states reached consensus on new rules to the curb. the regular migration reforms include speedy, a veteran of migrants ends, new, bought a detention centers rejected asylum seekers will face split. the port taishan and a new solidarity mechanism should distribute new arrivals more easily. countries that we choose to take in migrants will have to provide funding to those which do i

don't see and problem and presidents or bathroom. it sort of says it's a significant step forward. but today is to leave a historic day. i am surrounded by colleagues who have not slept all days and nights. my colleagues have managed to find the balance between solidarity and responsibility across all fines. it was not easy, but it only makes this achievement even more importance. we have defied the arts and proven that you were can deliver on the issue. that matters to citizens did have your brussels corresponded drugs, the budget told me more about bought the reform a means for people actually seeking asylum in the u. as we've heard from you, officials here really describing this as historic and as long as i've been covering this year in brussels, it has been such a device as topic among e u. member states. so you officials claiming this is a big success. on the other hand, i've had

a campaign or is writing to me telling me they think this is a big failure. i'm fine because the most controversial part of this reform is about separating migraines when they arrive, according to how likely they are to be granted asylum. so those come haley from countries which have low recognition rates. so country scene is safer, for example, pakistan or morocco would be sent to a switzer procedure including being detained in detention centers at the border. and that also includes controversially children who are with families and that is something that campaigners are really speaking out against. and i asked the officials of like, based in a press conference and they pointed instead to the options to seek legal advice on the fact that they were caps and the number of people that can be processed through they speak to your message. there's also a big over form going underway, which is about how migrants and asylum seekers are distributed across this your opinion. because of course, most people arrive to coastal border countries like greece, like a sweet and like spain. but that means that those countries have been asking for

more help on what they would call solidarity from other u member states. so under this, the reform there would be a more equitable distribution of migrant. some asylum seekers across the book and those who refuse taking more microbes and asylum seekers would simply have to cough up on cash and not something which is also important for germany because although geographically it's not one of the key countries of 1st arrival, it is the country which has the highest number of asylum applications in the home be of a problem, is this for the you give us an idea of the scale of illegal migration into the you as well. we know that last year asylum applications reached the highest level since the peaks that were seen in 20152016 arrived. and thanks to the full of the war in syria. no, that means that it's not only been rising numbers of people arriving to in your opinion, shores to seek safety in many cases. although of course, not all of those applying here, in fact, are considered to be people that need or granted shelter a refugee spaces. but also means that it's been moving up the political agenda here

in europe, and it's something which we know is important to lots of voters and something which is policy makers are trying to prove that they can in fact deliver on. so we're having a scale of a problem in terms of more people arriving. and of course their hard. we should not forget this also means before risking their lives services. if people have droned or gone missing in the attempt to reach your source just this year. so this is also something policy makers say they're trying to address. they say you official say this will help us. but of course, campaigners on the other hand are saying that in fact, this reform will only serve to make in some ways the situation of the porters worse . and now that you mentioned earlier that there was some disco, the country such as hungry have always refused to take in migraines. all pay money to other countries. how did they come on board? well, they simply didn't come on board. that's because, unlike and some eas policy areas which required you're not to miss packing of all you members states this area migration asylum policy only requires what's called

a qualified majority. so most new countries representing the majority of the population and what that means is but down the road, recruiting the st hungry for example, simply refusing to implement this reform and ending up ending taking the court by the european commission. we have seen that help in the past, so that's just one idea of the kind of political roadblocks which may late had here . okay, exponent rosie budget and brussels there. thank you very much, rosie. as the head of how moss is mo honey, it is in egypt discussing another seas 5 to last humanitarian aid into gauze of a mazda is considered as a terrace group of several countries. israel's presidents, as his country would consider it pulls into fighting and exchange for the release of more hostages. large scale protests of being held daily and as well pulling on the government to secure the release of the remaining $129.00 captives believe to be held in gaza. that is growing international pressure on israel to hold its attacks as consumers, terry, and situation in gaza. worse,

we also do the corresponding to rebecca, which is in jerusalem if any of these by fi is really likely given the hosp, the rate from both sides in recent weeks. us. well, that's right, and that may be surprising because both sides was thoughtfully saying that they weren't going to come back to the negotiating table. we are hearing is you just reported a present huts hug as well as president, saying that the israel is willing and ready to come back to the negotiating table. we've seen benjamin netanyahu meet with some of the families of the hostages, and a game reiterating that it is a priority to get those hostages out that they are taking he, they are listening and that they are working as hard as they can to make moves towards that he's under immense pressure to see some of these on the hostages. but it's the other side has been saying her must have been saying that they're not willing to come to the negotiating table. but we're also see movement on that is

now honey a. the political head, kotob bass, political head of homos is, is a reportedly going to egypt today. now egypt katasha has always played very big role in the negotiations. and he'll be meeting with negotiate his day and, and other people members from the egyptian team to discuss coming back to the negotiating table. we have been hearing that israel would be willing to perhaps stop, hold possibilities for up to 2 weeks to see the release of some, you know, with room and to hear about thursday, hostages. of course, all of these details of it kept very, very secret, ever very under wraps. so we've seen in the past before the last deal that, that so more than a 100 hostages released that they went up and down, up and down, they broke down and they came back to the table. it took it to a number of weeks to get a deal. and so we could certainly saying signs in the right direction, ben, but it could be some time yet before we see

a deal come to pass. but think of it as the reporting from jerusalem. that's, i hope not, some of the other stories making headlines today. malaysia and the house band is rarely shipped from docking that. it supports the band takes immediate effect in response to the conflict with a mouse muslim majority malaysia and has long supported the palestinians. and does not have to pull a magic ties with israel. both is underway in the, in the sections of the democratic republic of congo. president phillips to security is tipped to win the 2nd 5 year time, and search and seeing the east by the rebel m $23.00 group has overshadowed the come by millions displaced by the find to struggle to vote. to wait, su, email shakes, mess all off month. i'll sub off has been officially sworn in. the incoming router has criticize lawmakers and on this to the use security. economic and social

office and for holding them to this level of account. so we've never seen this before. we don't know where it's going in the united states is very heavily based on precedent on legal decisions from the past, but there aren't any here. so this colorado decision that says donald trump engaged the insurrection and therefore violated the 14th amendment of the us constitution bars him from holding the office of the presidency. again, that will now be decided or could potentially be decided at a national level by the us supreme court. if the us supreme court decides to up to take on the case as an appeal from the colorado state supreme court press to teams at the time to find any most of 5 of an earthquake in north west china quake field at least 131 people and ends at 100 small, local media, se tens of thousands of homes with damaged or destroyed you and the social. it's

firefighters and rescue personnel have been mobilized to assist the victims of the quake, but their job will remain difficult as power and water outages as well as destroyed roads, complicate relief efforts to doing so high. those in this is an iceland warning size. see us to keep away from an active erupting volcano. thousands of local residents have already been evacuated, but some people are still trying to get up close. putting themselves on emergency crews at risk. gosh, in fountains of lava. this volcano on the rate can, is spinning select has been erupt and since late monday, their option is slowly losing steam. but the situation he is still dramatic and potentially dangerous scientist, save me 2 dates, weeks or even months till it stops. it's slowly getting more quiet,
