for you with reporters on the ground bringing you the very latest from the philippines. margo is in manila looking into the challenges of getting aid to the people who need it, but first let's go to wayne haye in one of the worse-effected areas. >> it's not until you -- see it from the air that typhoon haiyan's devastation becomes truly evident. in this predominantly catholic country, the church is at the stern of the community, some are still standing, but it will be a long time before they are restored to their former gloery. the worth is detier rating again leaving people to look for protection in whatever is left of their homes. >> we have to stay here because we don't have any money to

leave. but we don't have anything to improve our shelter either, so we'll have to cope. >> reporter: helicopters and the aid they are supposed to be delivering stay grounded. that means more waiting for those who have received little or no assistance from the outside. some areas remain cut off to vehicles, trekking across the debris is the only way in or out. in some areas it took houses completely away. others were able to stand up to the force of the waves despite the fact that the water rose to halfway up the second story. >> there are many people still missing. here those who have been found are stored on a stage on what used to be a children's day care center. this woman is struggling with the pain of losing her one year old niece and seeing their home destroyed.

they used to not care about storms in this area, because they have experienced so many. now they are scared to stay here. >> translator: after the typhoon we heard rumors that the water was coming in again. every time it rains we leave. >> reporter: in many areas it's as many the storm just struck. a major aid appeal is underway to help victims of the typhoon. the un has released $25 million in emergency aid and has asked for millions more in donations. there has been many challenges in getting the aid to the people who need it most. >> reporter: volunteers are coming in droves and working around the clock to help relief efforts for the victims of typhoon haiyan. some haven't let physical challenges hold them back. >> translator: i wanted to help those that were so badly

effected by this storm even in the little way that i can. >> reporter: the strongest storm on record it crossed 44 provinces and effected nearly 10 million people. dozens are sending aid, money, equipment, personnel, food, and medicine. stretched and overwhelmed by the disaster, philippine officials are grateful for all of the assistance. the goal is to come up with 20,000 family packs of aid. in them food and water to hopefully last people several days, but there are still major distribution problems because of the extent of the damage to the roads and the airports, so once the bags leave here it doesn't necessarily mean they get delivered to those who need them. >> reporter: relief workers have had to walk for hours just to find those who need the help.

>> translator: we will keep going. we can't say how long that will be, but what is important is that we see this through together and really help the victims. >> reporter: there is now a strong sense of a shared purpose. typhoon haiyan may have wiped out communities, but filipinos are determined that it will not keep them down. the united nations humanitarian chief has told al jazeera that she is not happy with the international aid so far. valerie said a lot more is needed from other countries. >> i don't feel that we're moving fast enough. i haven't been there myself yet. i will go tomorrow weather permitting. one of the difficulties that we have is there's a tropical depression moving this way. we had real difficulties today

because of the weather. it wasn't possible for the whole day to get supplies in. we have got stuff that is trucked here in manila that we want to see delivered, so no, i'm not satisfied. there are a number of different factors that together are preventing us from being more effective. >> part of the aid is being coordinated from sabu. talk us through the logistical problems in getting aid to the places that need it. >> yes, indeed, it is painfully slow. here we could see how slow the whole operation is going. soldiers were sitting around every time waiting for flights to come back from the worst-hit area before they can load and depart again.

one flight is coming in, one is going out. it is not what you expect with such a disaster of this scale of a massive relief operation on the way. >> and where you are, i mean, you have seen the destruction there. people have been left with absolutely nothing. >> yes, indeed, absolute nothing, and of course it is now five days into the disaster, and the situation is becoming really, really desperate. people are literally begging for food. we went up to an area today that basically has not had much attention so far, because it's not one of the worst-hit areas. of course everything was destroyed. they had no food, no water. we saw hundreds of children on the streets by the road with signs help us, give us food. so that's how desperate they have become. >> so have some aid

organizations reached sabu? are they managing to get some aid out to these children and their families? >> yes, literally i think two aid organization have reached the area so far, but it's of course we are talking about three quite major cities up there that are destroyed for 80 to 90%. they have no power, no water, lack of communication, so a lot more is needed than that. >> i'm just looking at the pictures coming out to us. it looks like the weather is still a pretty big issue there. and people without shelter and food and water, they are having to live out in the elements as well. >> exactly. everyone of course is now talking about water. we're having this tropical depression right now, we had

storms all day, these people are out in the open. i spoke to people who said they are in the mountains, basically sleeping in the fields. they have not much to cover themselves. of course this is a situation that will cause disease in the end. >> indeed. steph thank you for that. if you head over to our web page, you'll find a lot more on typhoon haiyan, go to aljazeera.com, and we'll have a little more on the destruction of the typhoon a little later in the program. now the united nations is starting the largest polio vacation campaign in the middle east, because there has been a reemergence of the disease in syria. more than 24 million people will vak niced. >> this is the first time that

these children are being vaccinated against polio. these children are refugees from syria where the disease has reemerged. two months ago their father brought his family to lebanon. >> translator: there are no health centers in syria. it is hard to find medicine for children. we are worried about the polio virus, but at least here we are able to give the children what they need. >> reporter: this is one of dozens of centers providing free polio vaccinations. it is part of movement coordinated with the lebanese government. in this clinic alone about 200 children receive the vaccine every day. there are 800,000 syrians registered as refugees here, half of them are children, and many have not been vak noised since they arrived. the uniteded nations say there

is a risk of an polio outbreak here. but officials acknowledge that the task is particularly difficult in lebanon. here syrian refugees live among the population. and they are spread across the country. unlike in other neighboring countries there are no official camps in lebanon. reaching all of them will be a challenge. >> we hope that everybody will receive the messages. families are settled sometimes in garages or literally wherever they can find a space to set up a shelter. >> reporter: health authorities here are not taking any chances. syrian children, for example, go to lebanese schools where polio vaccinations are now being administered. and vaccination teams and mobile medical units are going door to door. the virus spreads quickly

particularly in unsanitary areas. thousands of syrians cross into lebanon every day. >> translator: we are afraid and hope that the government tightening control at the borders to prevent the virus from reaching here. >> reporter: polio has already broken out in sar -- syria. so far it has paralyzed at least ten children. there have been reports of heavy fighting and strikes in the syrian suburb of barza. rebels have been accused of care rig out the attack. the town has been a flash point between rebels and government forces for several months. there have been reports that syrian rebels have been using

refugee camps to bring in soldiers. the rebels claim they have recruited dozens of young men in recent months. >> translator: i joined the free syrian army a year and a half ago, i came to jordan two and a half months ago. i will continue, god willing to continue fighting with the free syrian army. once this is over i will join my bat italian. >> the main western backed opposition group has agreed on a new cabinet. they announced the minister in the turkish city of istanbul. and in a second vote they agree to attend a proposed peace conference with bashar al-assad.

>> translator: this is an historic day for syria. it has been a very long time coming. it's a ru republican for the people. still to come on this news hour, how powerful militias in libya are taking advantage of the country's black gold. plus find out where the government is blaming the refugees on failing to reach an agreement. and we have tennis's season final lee. europeans have gathered in paris to tackle youth unemployment. let's get more in judy mcdonald.

>> thank you. yes, as well as the german chancellor, the french president and european commission president are among those attending all pledging to develop strategies to deal with this wide-spread problem. more than 5.5 million people under 25 are unemployed in the european union. greece has the largest number followed by spain. in italy 40% of young people are out of work, compare those numbers to germany which has just 7.7% unemployment. jackie travelled to the french city of cally to see how they are being effected. >> reporter: this used to be a thriving port city. but local bidses have closed and fewer ships come in to dock. eric runs a family business

renting out cranes and lifting equipment. he has recently recruited two young people and is trying to encourage other local businesses to do the same. but he says it is difficult. >> translator: the world of education doesn't necessarily know what companies need. there are many different training courses offered today. are they all good? and do they meet the needs of companies? i'm not sure. >> reporter: there is now a local initiative to aims to match young workers with local businesses. >> translator: this is a job opportunity available to us are advertised in college or on the internet. the competition is so fierce that they must receive 1,500 applications for each vacancy. >> reporter: for young people in

depressed northern towns like this, there are even fewer opportunities. the traditional industries have been hit by competition from asia. now one in three young people are unemployed. that's higher than the national average. here are two of them. a young couple who have both been out of work for more than a year. gael wants to work in sales, alexandra is looking for a job in the building trade. >> translator: they don't really give us a chance. they say we lack experience and so on, but if we are not given a chance to prove ourselves, we'll never get experience. >> translator: i have hat a few days here a few days here, but nothing longer.

>> reporter: they believe there is no future for them in cally. their only hope now, they think, is to leave the town, maybe even to leave the country. the spanish capitol of madrid has now suffered a week without rubbish collection. garbage workers went on strike after a private company proposed cutting more than a thousand jobs. barnaby phillips reports now from madrid. >> reporter: it was a city that prided itself on being clean and well maintained. but right now, madrid is a rather depressing place. up setting for locals and tourists. >> we just arrived here about an hour or so ago. and our first impression was the bar gauge on the street actuall

actually. >> the condition is deplorable. >> reporter: everyone is paying the price of the failure of trade unions and a group of private companies ability to reach an agreement. the private companies would not speak us to on camera, but off camera they told me they are prepared to be flexible but the unions have to meet them halfway. but the unions are pretty fired up, frightened of losing their jobs, and seeing already modest salaries reduced. >> translator: we are very, very lucky to have work, but we don't want jobs that pay so badly that we can't feed our children. we want to keep our dignity. >> reporter: to rubbish collection centers are at a stand still. the spanish government has opted

for privatization to keep the public deficit down and make services profitable, but workers ask what about the human cost? madrid is in a mess and it won't be easy to clear up. i'll be back later with more from europe, including is breast definitely best? the controversial financial incentive to get mothers breastfeeding here in britain. ♪ now to libya, and what is becoming the most serious crisis since the uprising which overthrow gadhafi two years ago. ma -- militias say that are in charge of the oil fields now. >> reporter: in libya they are

failing to produce billions of dollars for a weak government, and its grip is particularly fragile in the east. anti-government militias have announced they will begin selling oil from the fields under their control. this is a recently formed group. they also announced that it will set up its own central bank in the eastern region. this will be an additional blow to the already cash strapped libyan government. >> translator: due to the delay in reopening oil fields the state will find itself helpless. the budget has been planned on the basis of the national income from oil. >> reporter: but the prime minister's words may not carry the punch he wants. even he was taken hostage a few weeks ago, accused of issues checks to military guards who

had been blocking an oil refinery in east libya. protests have continued for months. former rebels have blockaded supplies at oil terminals. >> translator: we have demanded independent [ inaudible ] and financially, we have also demanded activation of article [ inaudible ] of the constitution which allows us to take what is rightfully ours from all exports. >> reporter: the libyan army is trying to make it's a felt on the streets. but as religious and secular groups remain at logger heads, more sources of revenue continue to slip out of government coffers. let's go to an international oil economist and consultant on

oil energy for the world bank. the militia say they have formed a regional oil company. they are going to export the oil. who is going to buy it? >> i don't think anybody will buy it. the major customers for libyan oil are germany, france, and italy. i don't think thaf will be inclined to deal with the mafia, they only deal with the government because they have vested oil interests in libya. >> these militias have so much control in the east, they have managed to stop 60% of the exports so far. how damaging is this for the government and libya's economy? >> it is very damaging because the libyan economy is dependent to the tune of 85 to 90 person on the oil revenue. so without oil exports.

the libyan economy will not function, and the libyan government has delayed the issuing of next year' budget because they don't know what revenue they will get. mind you, libya used to export 1 million and quarter barrels a day to europe. now they are not exporting anything. in fact they are not meeting the domestic needs of the country. they are producing only 200 to 300,000 barrels a day. which are far less than domestic consumption of libya. >> as you say the west and libya have an interest in producing in interest. so how should the outside world deal with this? >> that is something for the

libyan government to decide, to about on. we know the western intervision in libya has reeked havoc on libya, exactly as it did in iraq before, so every time there is western intervention, we have trouble. which country is next on their agenda? i don't think any new western intervention can work. only the libyan government can work if it decides and it is able to control the army and the economy and the militia and the oil installations in libya. >> well, that is the multi-million dollars question. thank you very much for joining us. still to come here on the program. egypt's deposed president, mohammed morsi is meeting a team of lawyers for the first time inside prison. and there is a canadian

hockey player in doubt for the winter olympics. stay with us.

hello again. good to have you back. you're watching al jazeera. these are the main stories. hospitals are becoming overwhelmed by the number of dead and injured from the storm. 1,774 people are confirmed dead but it's feared that more than 10,000 have lost their lives. the united nations humanitarian for philippines says she is not happy with the response. and the largest polio vaccination campaign has begun in the middle east. let's get back to the typhoon that has wrecked the philippines. efforts to evacuate areas have continued five days after the typhoon hit. victims have been describing

their ordeal. >> translator: we have been here so many days. look at my children. we have nothing to eat. no clothes. others who just got here got on a plane right away. we did not die in the typhoon, but we'll die from the hunger. >> some people don't have enough money to pay for treating injured family members. >> translator: if only there is something that be done to help because she needs an extra. >> translator: i'm going crazy looking for food. i wish this would end, so i could return home with my child. we are filthy because we cannot go home. dozens of foreign governments have pledged resources to bolster the local relief effort. among the most generous is the united states. it is giving $20 million worth of immediate assistance as well

as sending ships and aircraft. the united kingdom has deployed a royal navy warship on top of $16 million in aid. smaller nations have also promised big sums. japan has projected $10 million and is sending a 25-member disaster relief team. china, one of the world's top five countries for its size and influence, and it has pledged just a hundred thousand dollars. we have the head of emergency operations for the un. tell us first of all about the aid that you have there now, and where you are planning to take it. >> well, right now on the ground, we don't have very much because we were running an operation down south now, but come thursday we are expecting

three or four 747s landing with tents plastic sheeting, blankets, jerry cans and a couple of other items. it is going to take us time to get it to the communities because the pipeline from here is very clogged. we don't have enough logistics right now to get it to the communities, most of them that are in remote locations and spread over a number of islands that are very hard to reach. >> but it does seem to have taken a long time to start organizing relief supplies to get these efforts. it is five days on now, and relief still hasn't reached some of the worst-hit regions. >> that's right. some of these communities are very hard to reach and very remote. getting information about them,

and getting supplies to them when bridges and roads are destroyed makes it very difficult to reach out to them. the government has done a commendable job of getting out some supplies, but the bulk of these systems should be coming in in the next few days. >> tell us how you prioritize what is needed. because of course many people are without shelter, but they are also without food, water, and medical help. where do you start? >> it is a big dilemma for us, there's no doubt about it. thankfully in the united nations, we have divided our responsibilities. we are a protection agency and we are targeting particularly the elderly, the sick, the people who are -- who have lost their family, pregnant and

lactating mothers, and other very vulnerable communities. however, when every one is extremely vulnerable, it's a very hard choice to make. we're going to try to target a lot of vulnerable communities, but i expect we are going to have to go to broader communities. the aid that we have, and assistance we're getting in is just not enough for the magnitude of the crisis. >> the un's huma humane -- humanitarian chief says countries aren't doing enough. do you share that view? >> well, the magnitude of the devastation has not yet been fully assessed. we can anticipate that the magnitude will be much greater than what we anticipate today so a lot more is needed.

and also the philippine government is doing a good job, but they are stretched. for the past 60 days they have dealt with a number of emergencies. storms the earthquake, and now this. this was in addition to other small and medium-sized emergencies they have responded to in the past few days, and they are having a hard time. so yes, we do need to do more. a lot more needs to be given to the people of the philippines. these people are living without water, electricity, any means of communication, any housing. we anticipate -- and this is a modest estimate -- that close to 800,000 people may be displaced. 4.5 million have been severely effected. so yes, more needs to be done. >> it is certainly a difficult

job, and we hope you can reach those people. thank you very much for joining us on the line there. now the government of the democratic republican of congo is blaming uganda for the collapse of the peace agreement with m23 rebels. the deal was scheduled to be signed on monday but fell apart on the last minute after both sides failed to agree on the wording of the document. the smokers looking to kick the habit, e cigarettes are becoming increasingly popular. be do they still pose a health risk? >> italy and spain alone have seen a 200% increase in the use of these cigarettes. sonia went to meet the experts.

>> reporter: this may not be a normal bow backco [ inaudible ] but it is a store dedicated to vaping. a healthy, alternative, they say to smoking real cigarettes. >> i'm not a doctor, but i have smoked for 12 years, and i quit for -- i stopped six months ago, and i feel my body completely different than before. >> reporter: the health risks of cigarettes has been widely known for decades. but with e-cigarettes it's a different situation. there is no smoke and much less of the associated problems, many here believe it is time to distinguish between smoking and vaping. there are questions surrounding the use of e-cigarettes. do the benefits really outweigh the risks?

and do they really help people to stop smoking? part of the problem is there is mostly anecdotal studies. those in favor say the benefits of vaping can't be ignored. >> who estimates that a billion people will die from smoking in the 21st century. if you can get a substantial number of people to use these products rather than smoke over the long term, you could possibly save hundreds of billions of lives. >> reporter: but there's no long-term evidence of other side effects. they are addictive, and it's an opportunity for the big tobacco companies to take advantage of their mass appeal. >> you have a massive opportunity to make vast sums of money out of the public, and that's why you need to control

the marketing. >> reporter: scientists are cautiously welcoming e-cigarettes as a possible alternative. the long-term effects, though, are still a long way from being known. joining me now in the studio is professor jerry simpson who is speaking at that conference today. who knew that these would become so popular. i remember seeing them in a garage, thinking what is that? and it has happened so quickly. >> they first came on screen in europe around 2006. about 10% of smokers use or are tried e-cigarettes. the sales are just phenomenal. some of the stock analysts say they will overtake cigarette

sales within about 10 or 15 years. >> from a public perspective this must be rather heart warming. are there problems in terms of safety? >> i think a lot of public health people have been called out by this. it's a consumer lead public health revolution. many of my colleagues are very cautious and say we have to watch and be very careful. there are some discouraging noises made by some senior public health experts, but really they should be embracing this. it seems to be working for lots of people. sure there will be questions of safety and quality, and those can be addressed, but compared with smoking tobacco these are way, way safer. >> how are we going to see

e-cigs classified? are they medicines? how do you see these things? >> there are two questions there. one is about where to use them. there are some companies which encourage their use because staff don't go outside to smoke. there are some pubs that sell them. there are other pub chains which ban them. there are some rail companies which ban them. some rail companies which allow them. so it is totally confusing at the moment. they are not covered by the current law, so people are free to use them subject to obviously your own premises can object to their use. the second question, are they medicines? tobacco? consuming product? this is what is occupying a lot of minds at the moment. the europe parliament is currently tested with that one. >> we'll watch what happens thank you. >> thanks very much. 30 people being held by the

russian government have been moved to st. petersburg. they have been taken from prison in the northern city to a pretrial detention center in st. petersburg. the transfer to a warmer climate is thought to be an effort to deflect criticism of the prisoner's living conditions. mothers have been given a controversial incentive to breastfeed. new mothers will be offered up to $126 in food incentives if they breastfeed their baby for six months. joining me is an advisor on this pilot project. i think some people might find this idea a little bit uncomfortable. why are incentives necessary?

>> well, we're asking the question is -- are incentives likely to help here? we have a problem in the uk, in that the breastfeeding rates have remained stubbornly low for a long time. and although more women are managing to start feeding, they are not likely to continue feeding. these tend to be in deprived areas where elements are lower and indeed younger mothers. so there is a tough challenge here which is how best to help women. one of the possible solutions is to try to help women by increasing motivation and indeed increasing the value of breastfeeding in communities. >> professor, i'm a mom of two very young kids, and one of the reasons i think that these rates of breastfeeding in this country

are very low is because women don't have the right support. i found it very difficult, and i'm not living in a situation where deprivation is any sort of issue. but you need a good diet. you need someone to give you a few hours off. where are women going to get those sort of incentives from? >> yes, i completely agree that women need more support. and in these low inform areas they don't have support and them. what we're doing with the study, where we're asking whether or not the incentives help. and at the same time we will be telling women where to go for support. there will be services in the local area, and the incentives may help women to be more motivated or help find that

support. so, yes, you are quite right to raise that question. >> professor thank you. that's it for me here in london. back to shoely in doha. >> coming up we'll have all of the sport here on al jazeera. >> basically i don't want to make any excuses. i want to know that our workplace going forward will be the best you can find in the nfl. >> the owner of the miami dolphins breaks his silence on his team's bullying crisis. that's coming up. ♪ >> audiences are intelligent and they know that their
