makes a difference in stopping it. that's "america tonight". thanks for joining >> this is al jazeera america, i'm thomas drayton. i.s.i.l. behets pete beheads pe. new video malaysia airlines crash in eastern ukraine as recovery efforts resume.

japan's economy slides into recession. casting a shadow over economic recovery. and the keystone pipeline. great to have you with us. we start with a new public and brazen atrocity been the islamic state of iraq and the levant. in a video out tonight, i.s.i.l. claims to have beheaded american hostage peter kassig. a former army ranger, who was captured while helping syrian refugees. >> shows 13 beheadings, and peter kassig, who they say was beheaded, came to iraq to kill

muslims. he had converted to islam during his captivity. this i say is a very brutal video. butter this is the type of video i.s.i.l. wants out there. the message they are sending supposedly to the americans is one that you can't bomb us wit without impunity. this isn't just about western hostages. i.s.i.l. have killed at least 17 iraqis, alise 17 journalists, journalists in both iraq and syria whose whereabouts we just don't know but i.s.i.l. say they are holding a number of iraqi journalists, as well as aid workers as well as beheading soldiers from iraq and syria so this is a tactic they do use. the west often concentrates on the name they understand but

cuts across iraq and syria. >> imran khan from syria. morphone is from washington, d.c. with more. >> good evening to you tom. waiting in agony for peter kassig's family in indianapolis, indiana. now they have learned the worst. his family stayed quiet, an effort they believe increased the odds he would be released by his captors. but after the last aid worker a british zen david henning was murdered on camera, they went to lebanon to plead his case. it has all come for nought and earlier today they released a statement, saying, in are part, we prefer our son be remembered in the love he had with his friends and family, not what the hostage takers would use to

further their cause. president obama released a statement on his way back from australia. he was there for g-20 summit. he believes peter kassig was the victim in this ghastly video from i.s.i.l. president obama called it an act of pure evil from an organization that was bent only on sowing evil. indomitable spirit of goodness and perseverance that bound in abdul rahman caching. rahman kassig. many believe these are propaganda efforts on behalf of i.s.i.l, and negotiations to free these hostages, mission ultimately unsuccessful. this is unlikely to change u.s. strategy in the war against i.s.i.l. by any means, the united states seize this as a

propaganda tool and a recruitment tool really on the part of i.s.i.l. which after all is in competition with other radical groups in the region to gain recruits from the west and elsewhere. thomas. >> mike viqueria in washington. those who knew peter kassig saiy he often surprised people with his generosity. zeina khodr with more. >> before he decided those living inside syria. he left in october 2013, only to be captured by the islamic state of iraq and the levant. a week ago his friends in the northern city of tripoli added their voice to an international campaign to persuade i.s.i.l. to release limb. they were hoping that the fact that peter who became known as abdul rahman who converted to islam in captivity, would help.

now he is lost for words. >> what i should say to his family that we are sorry, your son die in my country, and when he came to my country to help my people and who kill him, there are people who say that we -- who killed him, they say, islam. i don't know, they are not even muslim. >> this is just one of the many clinics where caif kassig treatpatients. while in lebanon, he volunteered with beingers who used the media who told peter's captors how he helped people. it didn't do anything. the masked man didn't refer to peter as an aid worker. he identified him as a u.s. soldier. >> this didn't surprise people who knew kassig well. they believe it makes no difference for i.s.i.l. if a person is a charity worker or

not. >> translator: they are doing this to muslims. they kill anyone who they feel are against them, including americans. they would do it to me as well. >> kassig. >> our son was inspired by his grandfather to do humanitarian work. when he saw the suffering of the syrian people he went to turkey and founded an organization to provide aid and assistance. >> kassig was not the first western captive to be murdered. there were four others before him. but unlike in their videos, kassig didn't speak and i.s.i.l. showed what was meant to be a mass beheading of other syrians as well. kassig and soldiers unlikely to be last victims.

zeina khodr, al jazeera, lebanon. >> this tragedy doesn't mean the u.s. has to put more troops on the ground in the fight against i.s.i.l. >> identifying a rent group someone like the peshmerga, someone like the kurds that you can invest loyalty in that have good intentions and their intentions are to ensure that their whole civilianization isn't overrun by i.s.i.s. and their primary aim isn't to overrun assad. there's a primary objective there which has been there before i.s.i.s. ever came about, which was to tobl assad. topple assad. >> what pure intelligence can be gathered from this most recent tape? what does it tell you? >> that is a really, really good question. there are a number of things about this tape which i think are really fascinating. the first one is, it occurred in

a location called dabiq. dabiq is an interesting location. prophet mohamed said once rome fell the day of judgment it would come in one of two places. one is el alamaq and the other is dabiq. i.s.i.s. is more of a cult rather than a terror organization. the fact that it's using these brutal murders to -- to use as propaganda so on so forth, what that does is whilst it's terrible and brutal, it binds those committing those crimes together. they are then binded to a cult which they find it very hard to get away from. >> to extract -- >> to extract themselves from. we have known this from people who have managed to escape who have gone there on a wrong premise in europe, from u.k.

they have found it very hard to escape. this whole cult thing is something that intelligence agencies need to be sort of building on and identifying where the chinks in the armor of i.s.i.s. is, that will lead to their demise. >> the state department has shut down its entire unclassified e-mail system after a possible hacker attack. officials at the state department say no classified documents were compromised. following two hacks including the u.s. postal service, many. chinese hackers are expected in those attacks. the cdc is on scene where 172 people got sick of the norao virus. month long trip to hawaii and tahiti. all the patients were treated on the ship. precautions are taken so the

gastrointent nagastrointestinalt spread. the grand jury will decide whether to indict darren wilson. al jazeera asked the mayor of ferguson what he hopes the grand jury will do in this case. >> i don't care one way or the other what the outcome is, as long as it is the legal and fair outcome under the law. no matter what happens, the city's going to work to move forward. >> what has been the hardest part of this for you? >> well, the hardest part has been you know seeing the community that i grew up in, the community i love, the community i've committed to serving and i've been on the city council for almost ten years now, to see it embroiled in this kind of racial tension. >> we invite you to watch more of this interview tomorrow night

at "america tonight," 9:00 eastern. churches are helping parishioners come to terms with the events in the town. john terret has the report. >> it is the top of everyone's minds, they don't know what the decision will be, what the effects might be. now today in ferguson many of the pastors changed their sunday services to reflect what has happened in fergses ferguson ant might happen in the weeks ahead. we went to one such service today. ♪ ♪ >> father robert says the world has its eye on ferguson and he altered her his sermon on sunday to reflect mood in the town ahead of the impending grand jury decision. >> i believe ferguson is the new bullpen mafia. bethlehem. >> reporter: what happened in

ferguson in the summer could happen in any american city or town. >> you can't go back and that means that not just ferguson, it extends across the country. but we have a hard time owning that. because if we say it's just your problem, we can put the lid back on and go back to normality. >> father rose bro says the failure to address issues from the civil rights era which he witnessed are in the area in ferguson. >> in the '60s and '70s we have to finish it now. >> in the first snow of the year in ferguson, congregants explain what they took away fromming the father's homily. >> you have to think of what's your response if it happens in your area. >> i think the community can heal. i think it can heal itself but i think it needs to be done from the inside. i don't think it needs to be done from the outside. need people together. >> prayer, peace, faithfulness,

people need to learn to love each other and to forgive. that's what it's ball in this world. >> reporter: after mass a pancake breakfast for the faithful. real food to accompany the food for thought they've just received upstairs. just want to make it clear. ferguson is really any town u.s.a. and people who struggled here to try and continue life with some semblance of normalcy since the awful incident of august the 9th, earlier this year. and i think that that was really the main message of the pastor. the if it happened in your town, what would you think , what would you do, how would you cope? one african american website is claiming it is going to be handed down on monday. they don't know when. three hours on sunday, the children will be sent home, in case there's any violence. >> our john terret in ferguson.

the keystone xl pipeline is one step further from being improved. its chances to become a reality. the g-20 comes to an end with a new agreement to boost the global economy. is i

>> welcome back. president obama is returning from australia and the g-20 summit with an agreement to increase the global gdp by $2 trillion. the summit closed with the usual photograph of the leaders. russia's increasing involvement in ukraine, scott heidler reports from brisbane. >> one, boosting the global economy by $2 trillion. this would happen the plan says by increasing trade and investing in infrastructure over the next five years. >> this career, the g-20 has delivered real tactical outcomes and because of the efforts that the g-20 has made, this year,

culminating in the last 48 hours, people right around the world are going to be better off. and that's what it's all about. >> reporter: the prime minister had said climate change would not be discussed at g-20 but it made its way into the plan. prime minister abbott stuck to his one promise that the official communique from the g-20 will only be three pages long. but what came from this summit will be very difficult to implement. >> if you have to stuff everything into an arbitrary three pages you inevitably say everything in generalities. >> reporter: but with leaders of the world's most powerful countries in the world, overshadowed, russia's involvement in ukraine was condemned. >> as a consequence we are going to maintain the economic isolation. while maintaining the possibility of a diplomatic

solution. it is not our preference to see russia isolated the way it is. >> reporter: but the much talked about confrontation between prime minister abbott and ppt never happened. >> the ukrainian situation in my view has a good chance of a resolution no matter how strange it sounds. those who pose them. late in the day the leaders departed for their countries, each with the unique challenges and each with the task of selling these ideas to their parliaments. scott heidler, al jazeera, brisbane. japan's gdp shrank and analyzed 1.6% in quarter ending september. japan's is the third largest economy behind united states and china. manufacturing has lost its

innovative edge and production has shifted off shore. japan's situation could affect the global economic recovery. 20 years of negotiating for a new u.s. naval base on okinawa may have gone to waste. opposes the base and vows to deny construction permits. onaga's election could bolster. a global category aimed and cches inspection is exercises in jordan. the organization uses high tech tools to determine whether a nuclear explosion has taken place. reporting from the dead sea in jordan. >> reporter: it is the largest and most sophisticated exercise conducted by this group of to g. it's taken four years to create this exercise. the aim to prove that would be

violators of the treaty cannot possibly evade detection by the organization. >> we've proven through the 3 tests, that we can detect any type of nuclear test explosion and now we're completing the verification regime by an integrated exercise in jordan that would prove absolutely that we are ready to detect any type of nuclear test explosion in the search to develop nuclear weapon. >> in this fictional scenario inspectors try oestablish whether a nuclear explosion has been conducted here. samples are taken to the base of operations for testing. 150 tons of the most advanced nuclear equipment was brought here. for the 45-day exercise. this is the only mobile device of its kind in the world. it samples the radioactive gas

argon which doesn't exist naturally. so detecting this is like detecting the smoking gun. 44 nuclear technology holder countries must sign and ratify phi it before the treaty becomes binding. eight countries are still hesitant to fully endorse the international treaty that bans nuclear tests. three of them are in this region, israel, iran and egypt. the hope is that conducting the large inspection of a nuclear site here could raise the treaty's profile and encourage those nations to ratify it. >> from these aids no one apart maybe from north korea is conducting nuclear tests or even suggesting this. it is mainly creating aring countries from going ahead. >> when ratified this agreement will stop the world's nuclear arms race. it will prevent any country from

developing a nuclear weapon for the first time, and stop the enhancement of existing nuclear weapons. al jazeera, the dead sea, jordan. >> rebel controlled areas in eastern ukraine have been hard hit between the government and pro-russian militias. about 20 trucks arrived in luhansk today, containing equipment to repair the damaged electrical grid. the ukrainian government has cut off funding to the areas that pro-russian fighters control. >> reliable in recent days. but a day after the ukrainian president's decree that among other things promised an end to banking services in the break away east there's no money to be had. >> translator: the banks are empty on a sunday. it doesn't give out money so there is none.

>> reporter: elena works for the state run water company, she hasn't been paid in months. the self-declared government of donetsk. >> i hope they would help, i expect them to, i think so, i promised, but really i don't know. >> reporter: at a suburban supermarket bank officials took away the credit card terminals on thursday. but life goes on and people don't know what to expect over the coming days. the management have two key concerns. whether they're going to continue to have access to the goods to the west of the country and whether their customers will find it ever more difficult to get assess to cash to pay for them. one question the extent to which russia will citizen in. more aid has been arriving since sunday, to repair the electricity infrastructure as winter sets in.

>> translator: we hope russia won't forget us. they're our brothers. humanitarian aid is critical. we don't only need equipment but also medical supplies and food. the situation remains unchanged. the country is at war and the economy is basically destroyed. >> russian help to take more territory. ukrainians say moscow has been sending more aid across the border. return to open widespread conflict. harry forset, al jazeera, donetsk. malaysia plane 17 was shot down over eastern ukraine, a section of the plane will be reassembled as part of

undertaking. but without it, the region could likely run out of water.

de. >> welcome back to al jazeera america. here are the top stories we're following right now. american peter kassig has been executed by i.s.i.l. confirming the death of the aid worker and iraqi veteran. a video released by i.s.i.l. also shows the killings of other prisoners. japan's economy has fallen

for the 12th straight quarter, plunging the country into recession. accomplished by investing in infrastructure and increasing trade, along with hubs of other new measures. protesters are blocking streets near ferguson, missouri demanding justice for michael brown. a grand jury will soon decide whether to indict darren wills, the officer who shot and killed the 18-year-old unarmed teen. it is sunday night and time for our regular look at the week ahead. let's throw it over to richelle carey. >> thank you, thomas. the house and senate passed a bill on saturday allowing president obama to move forward ton keystone pipeline, the pipeline that will move from canada into the u.s. the senate is expected to vote on the bill this week. we start by a report by david arioso.

>> pitting energy producers against farmers and environmentalistists. >> we will not let you build this pipeline. >> the controversy has been virtually unprecedented for the pipeline. often assuming center stage in presidential politics. >> i do want to be clear. allowing the keystone pipeline to be built requires a finding that doing so would be in our nation's interest. >> canada is the world's fifth largest oil producer and sends virtually all of its crude oil products to american appliance. four major appliance from alberta delivering crude to u.s. markets but that of course doesn't include a slew of secondary appliance which cross the border into states like montana, wyoming and colorado, so why such a big concern over a new one? part of the reason is location. the keystone xl would travel

opportunity oglala aquifer,. >> one spill into our aquifer it can spread miles. if our water's contaminated we have no water for the cat many. >> critics -- cattle. gls where oiled sands which generate a low grade high sulfur crude that analysts say contributes to greater carbon emissions than traditional oil production. >> and yet a state department report concluded in january that the keystone xl would not substantially worsen oil production. oil sands crude would probably reach refineries 98. >> we are going to be importing more oil from other countries. >> the decision rests with the state department. david arioso, al jazeera, new

york. >> the bill passed the house 252 to 161. but it's the ninth time the house has passed the bill. president obama says he wants to resolve all the legal issues before he silence the legislation. the pipeline would allow canada to sell its oil to the rest of the world, but as david arioso points out, farmers ranchers and locals are concerned about the groundwater. the oil will be produced regardless whether it goes through the keystone pipeline or some other means. native american communities who live along the pipeline's route, that is running there a patch work of 38 tribal nations. something disrupted by the pipeline's disruption. to discuss more about the plans and the controversy surrounding the keystone xl pipeline let's bring in alex ext extine.

it has gotten past the house now and next of course is the senate and president barack obama has indicated he will veto it. he hasn't said for sure, indicated as such. let me start with you alex. do you actually think it is ever going to come to fruition? >> i can't read his mind and i can't read everyone's mind. i certainly hope it does. because at the core a pipeline is a means to expand people's access to oil. if we want people to have more access to oil, that means more people can drive, fly, use modern agricultural equipment and have food and the benefits of oil far far outweigh the risks and side effects. >> you made your case, and we'll drill down on that no pun

intended in a moment. anthony do you think it will come to fruition? >> i think major disadvantages of this pipeline are going to be its undoing. the president has made it clear that this is a decision for him to make, as the bill finds its way to his desk. he's likely to veto it. it is currently in the national determination process. the likelihood that the tar sands from this pipeline is going to be exported and the impacts to our water supply and all of those factors would compel him to reject the bill. >> the the items you gentlemen just outlined, it is also extremely political. let's dig into the politics of it. mike viqueria has that report. >> reporter: the campaign trail has led directly to the floor of congress. senate democrats have reversed course to safe isave one of

their own. harry reid had a choice, anger the voters, thereby handing control of the senate to the republicans and allowing the republicans to expand their majority in the house of representatives, he would anger them by allowing a vote on something that he had blocked in the past. or help embattled democrat mary landrieu in her runoff december 6th where she's behind in the polls. to gop president bill cassidy. landrieu rose to the senate floor and asked for consideration of a bill that would approve the keystone pipeline through legislative means. and there was a second choice that may have factored heavily for harry reid, he faced opposition in his battle to remain head of the democrats in the senate. by backing landrieu he built mofermorale in the senate. he was successful. but reid's choice was a finger

in the eye of president obama, in the face of fierce opposition who say the project is an environmental disaster waiting to happen. the bill passed the house on friday, backed by cassidy, landrieu's opponents in the primary, it takes 60 of 100 senators to vote in favor. it would then go to the president's desk for his signature. instead he's expected to issue a veto. nive, amike viqueria, al jazeer, washington. >> do you think that now some people are really forgetting what the real issues are because this has become a political tool? >> i think that is certainly the case. i mean one of the things to keep in mind is this is a pipeline that does not have a route yet. nebraska district court invalidated the route and in all

likelihood, a supreme court ruling is going to uphold that route-voiding and that means that transcanada is going to have to go through afternoon entirely new process -- through an entirely new process to stabt talibaestablish a route through canada. nobody is waiting for the decision for keystone. transcanada can't b make the route, it makes sense the administration which has the experts necessary to evaluate the core issues, the job issues, you know, climate impacts of the pipeline and the corporate impacts of the pipeline, rather than moving it to congress which is not a permitting body. >> you actually mentioned the jobs and gentlemen, the ceo of transcanada was on the air this

day, make his points. i'm going to pick up a few alex. >> all of this will be held in the gulf coast. the oil will come out of canada and be delivered to the gulf coast. it will create 9,000 jobs. i'm going to hire those people to construct the pipeline and the department of state says it will create 4300 jobs, $2 billion in wages. >> those are a lot of great numbers, right? >> uh-huh. >> in fact, some politicians have framed this almost as a jobs program but in fact the state department has said when all is said and done, there will only be 50 permanent jobs alex. >> to me a job is a secondary issue. a job is good if it's a productive job. president obama helped create a lot of inefficient jobs by

subsidizing green companies called sloirnd. solyndra. so 9,000 people if they're involved with that great. if 9 people were involved with that, great. >> there are risks to a pipeline. it is not 100% -- >> compared to what? >> obviously i know what you're going to say, trains and trucks are less risks. but there are still risks though. >> there are troisks risks to r pipeline too but it's the most efficient way of transporting water. >> i believe you understand my point, oil is more -- oil is going to be much more damaging to the environment an oil leak than if a water pipe burst. >> with all due respect, you are subject to the dents of nrdc. oil is not a particularly toxic

substance among those that we use. for example let's take these dirty oil sands. those exist naturally in many bodies of water. athabaska river in canada. groups preying on the public's interest, we can't equate challenge with catastrophe and that's the whole essence of this attack. >> anthony you want to get in here? >> yes, certainly. one of the -- it's interesting that we mention the athabaska river. cancer rates fair higher than you would expect in any other community, tens of times higher. so we're beginning to nail down some really significant impacts associated with tar sands production in alberta. there's no question that oil spills have significant impacts to human health and to the

environment. we found that with the kalamazoo tar sand spill in 2010. that spill showed that tar sands have some of the most damaging qualities, when they hit water bodies. in 2010, about 830,000 gallons of crude was spilled in michigan. over four years later, that oil spill has still contaminated 38 miles of that river and over $1 billion have been spent in attempting to remediate that spill. so once a tar sand spill happens in a water body it's very difficult to bring that water body back to the state it was before the spill. >> so and you touched on this alex. doesn't this really come down to how you feel about oil? that really is the bottom line here, correct? >> 100%. >> that's it. >> 100%. that is the issue. and so is the issue is it good for nrdc and other groups to deprive the world of oil which is by far the most affordable

source of power. for transportation to be more expensive for pretty much everything in the world to be more expensive, we see that prosperity thrives when oil prices are low. >> when this pipeline is built it is supposed to do what for the economy? that is debatable, how much it is going to save anybody money. >> that being said, we shouldn't build new farms because they will only lower the price of food so much. this is why obama's statement is so crazy about oh it might be going to other countries. oil is a global market. the more it's produced in the whole system the more the prices go down. thanks to our brilliant innovations in shale. >> anthony do you buy that? >> not at all. not only is it harmful to produce, it's very expensive.

the braif break-even price is 8o $110 a barrel, they do not fit in a world of cheap energy or cheap oil. and that's one of the reasons why in our last six or seven months without sufficient pipeline access, numerous tar sands expansion projects have been cancelled. it's simply too expensive to get that tar sands out of the ground and use stut substitutes like r. so rather than choosing an inexpensive transportation route like rail and appliance they're simply cancelling the projects. >> all right this has been years to get to this point. we'll probably circle back in ten more years and talk about this, gentlemen, alex and anthony appreciate the discussion. with the u.s. senate preparing to vote tuesday, we'll examine the issues surrounding the pipeline, keystone boom or

bust, that's monday 8:30 p.m. again at 11:30 p.m. eastern. before you go, let's look at other events coming up in the week ahead. on monday, eu foreign minister , will begin discussions about russian sanctions. after pp president putin walkedt of the g-20 summit. tuesday oxford dictionary will announce its word of the year for 2014. last year's word was selfie. >> richelle carey reporting. coming up next on al jazeera america. >> local companies should be compensated for fighting contagion. >> chuck shumer wants

municipalities to be paid for fighting ebola. and the most expensive hat ever sold.

>> pro-democracy protests have been ongoing in hong kong for the last 60 days now. many activists have put their lives on the line. and demonstrations have overtaken the area. divya ar gopalan has the story. >> living on the streets has become a way of life for these protesters who are demanding the right to freely choose their next leader. this university student has suspended his studies in the united states to help guard the barricades. >> the government will answer our questions, will answer the needs and give us the right to nominate our chief executive, and they will accept our need

for democracy. >> the protesters want beijing to revoke its decision to vet the candidates for hong kong's 2017 elections to choose its chief executive. but the hong kong government and the leaders in china have made it clear that won't happen. >> hopefully you know beijing will at a later time give us some positive response. for the time being, there is no fixed plan for exit as yet. >> reporter: the government and the protesters are at an impasse so now it's been left to the public to take the initiative to clear some of the protest sites. for instance, the managers of this building have obtained a court order and they can ask police to remove any obstacles from the area, be it barricades or protesters, and should they resist they can be arrested. >> and in hmon mong kok, they se

blockade is affecting their business. sam chan gave up his job as an english teacher. he now lives on handouts. >> if they use i don't know guns, violence, we will leave. but we will come back. >> reporter: sending a clear message that just removing barricades will not silence the protesters demands for democracy. divya gopalan, al jazeera, hong kong. the potential for an outbreak in mali has raised concerns from u.s. officials. starting monday, united states visitors from mali will be screened for possible exposure to ebola. 15 to 20 people per day come from mali traveling from other countries. about 20 soldiers left fort braggg north carolina to help fight ebola in north africa.

they'll have little to no contact with ebola patients still unclear when they'll return home from their mission. >> new york senator charles schumer said the recent quarantine of an ebola patient in new york cost $20 million. dr. craig spencer was isolated after being diagnosed with ebola on september 23rd. the federal government should reimbursereimburse new york. >> cities need oknow that there will be reimbursements there so they don't skimp on what is needed to be done. they do this already for tuberculosis. there is no reason they should not do it for ebola. >> senator schumer stated new york city is spending millions

to screen against ebola and the city's efforts are protecting the entire country. 200 immigrants are safe from libya, a portuguese vessel rescued the boat, about 45 miles off the coast of libya. taken to sicily. portugal is among 19 countries working to rescue people trying to make the dangerous crossing from africa to italy. thousands rescued in the mediterranean have been children often orphans. close this week because funding promised by the government hasn't come true. sue torin reports from messina, an island off the coast of italy. >> all these youngsters made the crossing from africa without parents or relatives, all are

hoping to be fostered by italian families. all youssef's family were killed, he didn't know where he was going or whether he would survived. >> how many people were on the boat? >> 120 people, crammed. >> you didn't ask to get on the boat. >> we start going until morning, i saw myself in the middle of the sea. i said go, i'm going to end my life. i think i'm going to die. >> reporter: par is from senegal. he came over on the boat carrying 720 passengers and over 100 were killed on board by the traffickers. both his parents are dead and he's desperate to find a family to live with. >> i told them i want family because i cannot live without family. if i want, i want family.

they are smiling i feel sad. i really feel sad because i need my own family. >> over 1300 unaccompanied minors have arrived on italy's shores this year, over 3,000 have since disappeared. it's feared that many have ben forced into prostitution or slave labor. this center has been home to 100 aged between 15 and 18. but promised funding from the interior ministry has failed to arrive and it's forced to close next tuesday. >> for 11 months we provided for these youngsters without getting a single euro. we can't provide for them anymore. we provided for them to give them back the dignity no one else gave them. >> reporter: thousands are coming here from north africa, just saved 200 air tre eritreasd

libyans. stopping for all but just a few. >> translator: these kids are like us. they need to be in a family. the there's a family that's prepared to foster a child they should speak up through the bureaucracy. >> for many of these youngsters this is the first time they've felt safe since fleeing their own country. now they just want to start a normal life with a family to call their own. su tusue turtin, al jazeera, me. >> it may seem like a joke but the world health organization estimates a third of the world's population doesn't have access to proper facilities. about 1 billion people are forced to go out in the open. women face the added threat of sexual violence. 2.2 million deaths a year are linked to poor sanitation. that's more than hiv, aids, mall
