walls beautiful and raise social awareness. police in hungry fired tear gas to quell unreft at the main refugee protest center. the government is considering using the army to secure the borders. it said it will send more than 2,000 police to control the situation. thousands of people are crossing into the country from serbia. hungary is part of the europe shiang zone, allowing for passport free travel. each day more than 2,000 refugees arriving in the country, so far this year hungary registered 100,000 refugees. compare that to the whole of 2014, refugees - registering 43,000. in 2012 that number was 2000. the government is building a razor wire fence along the southern border with serbia. so far it has not stopped people coming across.

andrew simmonds has the latest from belgrade. >> news about the tear gas fired at the registration center is causing alarm here at this camp. squalid conditions, this is the last point where people reach before they make the journey to the hungarian border, crossing a long razor wire points and hoping they will not encounter difficulties. but i spoke to a syrian woman who said that she intends to stay here until she is sure that it's safe. now, others intend to cross at night. there is more and more numbers here. we are reaching a point of record every time round. and what we are hearing from the border is that this incident was over fairly quickly, but 300 to 400 people were asked to give fingerprints at the registration center. and that means they'd have to

seek asylum in the country they are in. the refugees want to move further on into germany, the u.k., france, and austria. so the situation now is that we are hearing the position of the the government of hungry is quite hard line, and they are considering deploying the army, announcing that 2,100 extra police, dogs and also horses, mounted police, will patrol the border in addition to the 1,000 police already there. >> earlier i spoke to a u.n.'s refugee agency in budda pest and asked if the use of arm forces would be affected. >> there were different reports from a few days, but what we have seen since last day is that the numbers are coming in. these are refugees, women, children, family.

when i talked to my colleagues, monitoring the situation on the border of serbia, they were saying that over 1500 have come in. there were some desperate people who came across and begged that others can just cannot continue the journey, because they are tired and exhausted. we are looking for a human approach from the government in the e.u. okay, you talk about those enormous numbers, and from the u.n.h.c.r., melissa flemming has been quoted that it's vital that human rights and dignity be respected. surely for a country to do that they need resources, some sort of e.u. policy to protect them. how is it fair on the countries to do that? >> indeed. in the history books, probably europe's treatment of the small proportion of refugees, crossing at the doors, a record displacement will be remembered around the world, at claims of high standards of human rights

will be judged based on treatment. as i said, we are looking for a human treatment. no country can deal with this issue collectively. it's clear, this is a refugee population on the move. people i have met on the border come from serbia and hungarian border is coming from syria. women, children and kids. there it's iraq and afghanistan. how they want to treat the people? it's not a single country's issue, and they shouldn't be left dealing with it on their own. >> how will they deal with it. doesn't seem like it will stop soon. numbers will keep arriving. it calls for an e.u. policy, coordinated. what does it look like, when will it happen? >> it should happen soon. these people, who arrive, when you talk to them at the border, you want a minute's wait in terms of proper reception, it's too much. it's desperate, tired,

exhausted. they cannot continue. the question they ask is where are the humanity in europe. are we in e.u., where is the humanity. we keep searching for that. it has to come sooner than later. these are desperate people, refugees on the run. trying to save their lives. south sudan's president salva kiir is under international pressure to sign a peace deal. regional leaders meeting in cuba are hoping to sign an agreement. they are threatening sanctions if pen is not put to paper. . >> i'm standing outside freedom ham. all we are waiting for is the dignitaries to arrive from abroad. president kenyatta is here, the first vice president of sudan and the prime minister of ethiopia. we are waiting on the ugandan president. when he gets here the four will go into talks, negotiations and

hopefully the deal will be signed today, it's important, could turn over the lives of hundreds of thousands affected. the big thing to remember, which overshadows is some of the top commanders split from the former leader, and said the peace deal doesn't mean anything to them. if the president of the republic signs it, it doesn't mean an end to the fighting. unfortunately that's the dark cloud that is hanging over today. >> the u.n. security council is threatening sanctions if salva kiir doesn't sign the deal. gabriel elizonda reports from the united nations. >> reporter: if south sudan's president kiir backs out of the peace deal the united nations says it will acts, and do so quickly. that's a message from the u.n. security council. >> they need to act immediately if president salva kiir does not sign the agreement some.

tomorrow as they have undertaken. >> reporter: the u.s. drafted a u.n. security council resolution calls for targeted sanctions and an arms embargo if salva kiir does not sign the deal. there could be disagreements in the council over the initiative, and diplomats say action on the resolution would require further negotiations which could take days. >> the u.n.'s top official for humanitarian affairs told council members on tuesday that the situation on the ground is grave, and getting worse. giving horrific examples of crimes against innocent civilians. >> i'm very concerned about the atrocities that are continued to be reported. the scope suggests a deep depth of antipathy. it goes behind political differences. allegations include rampant killing, rape, abduction, looting, arson and forced displacement. and such horrific acts of burning of people inside their own homes.

thousands have been killed since december 2013 when fighting began. there are 2.2 million internally displaced people in the country, with 600,000 living in u.n. safety shelters for civilians, and there are 16,000 refugees in neighbouring countries, and 4.6 million people where 36% of the entire population, don't have enough to eat. it's hoped this could be the first step to stop of the violence and get help to those that need it most. >> in the words of u.n. representatives, inking a deal will be the first step. as for the security council, they'll wait and watch closely what's on wednesday, before deciding what, if any, action they'll take. al jazeera's spoken to one of the most powerful military

it seems there are efforts to prevent the mobilisation forces from taking part in a planned offensive against isil in ramadi. it was denied that there was an agreement with the u.s. to stop forces. without them the battle can't be won. the battle in ramadi is in its sixth week, and if there was cooperation between the army, police and the sons of tribes, it will be easily won, today it is describes as powerful men in iraq. dismissing the role of fighting i.s.i.l. in iraq and is criticizing an integral start of strategy. still ahead on al jazeera - china's rate cut fails to restore confidence amidst a volatile day for asia's stock markets. police in the united states try

the market lost 20% even though the stra bank cut interest rates, it made it easier for banks to loan money to businesses with a shortfall in the finances, giving them the ability to have loans, and cut the opportunity of gaining interest for those that might want to save money. it's the fifth interest rate cut on the last five months since november, and may be a trand that may continue. for the moment china is not out of the woods. it's a situation, the international perception of china's market. everybody will be watching closely of how china pulls itself out of this and regains the confidence that it needs to make sure it doesn't pull out of the country. >> south korea says it is willing to discuss ending sanctions against the north or

furthering its agenda in the middle east. there's limitations to how much money egypt can provide on the subject of syria. what russia wants is to strengthen bashar al-assad's hands in syria by getting bashar al-assad and his syrian forces involved in the international coalition against i.s.i.l. egypt has a complicated relationship with damascus. it has a more complicated relationship at the moment with the opposition forces in syria. it seems that egypt's finances are too dependent at the moment on the saudi arabians and they are very opposed to anything that will strengthen bashar al-assad's stands. egypt will sit on the sidelines and not give russia the assistance there that it - that russia might like.
