[chanting] hungry shuts down the main rail way station in the capitol budapest, stopping refugees from travelling. ♪ hello, i'm live from al jazeera headquarters in doha, also on the program, calls grow for australia to remove children from a prison holding asylum seekers in malu after a scathing report reveals abuse. barack obama calls for action on climate change on a historic visit to alaska and some call

him a hypocrite. stolen art facts worth of millions of dollars to their rightful owners. ♪ but first the hungry are stopping people from leaving the main train terminal to prevent refugees to heading on to austria and germany, around a thousand people are currently gathered outside the station with security guards blocking all the entrances. government officials say they are simply trying to adhere to european union law as outlined by germany's angela merkel in a press conference on monday. well it was a very different situation on monday when some people were allowed on board the trains. andrew simmons our correspondent got on board with some of them. >> reporter: yet another cue for weary refugees but this is a

breakthrough, hundreds are being allowed to board trains to germany and austria and some families have been stuck living on pavements surrounding the station for more than a month and this is happening only a few hours after the hungarian government said no travel across borders without visas. none of these people have visas and now they are crammed in a train, bound for munich and cleared to leave. but the austrian border there is confusion and delays of several hours because the rail way wasn't happy the over crowded carriages wanted to transport passengers to other trains. this man from syria talks after one month of traveling. >> i had a place in germany and stay there one day, two days and i was debating where i go. maybe in germany because it's a

big country and maybe good. >> reporter: some refugees were stressed about whether they were free to carry on across the border and didn't believe rail officials. after an hour and a half came relief. it's stifling in here. the train is packed to overflowing and people are celebrating because they are convinced they are about to cross the border and don't have visas but seems the exception is being made and the journey goes ahead. at last on their way to the destinations they had grown to doubt they would ever see, andrew simmons, al jazeera, on the hungry/austria border. that was the situation yesterday and andrew simmons now joins us live from outside the train station from budapest and andrew from letting several hundred refugees go on their way

to austria and germany the hungarian authorities changed their minds and preventing them from traveling. >> reporter: it certainly would appear so from what we are seeing here. as you can see there is quite a long line of police stopping any access by refugees into the station here. there is not any really massively dangerous situations arising here. the crowd is annoyed, angry, frustrated but from the faces you will see here and in the foreground people sitting down they are utterexhausted and dese and many bought tickets and massive cost to large families but consider large families are pairing up well over a thousand euros for their tickets and if they get to use them they are not sure and have no information

about what is happening. the hungarian service said the police came in and shut off the whole entrance in the early hours of tuesday morning. subsequently they have to actually close the station completely but what we are hearing now is that some tourists and some passengers are getting in another entrance which might mean some of these people may actually try to get in that narrow area. something like 3650 is the figure quoted by austrian officials and the number of refugees who reached vienna on monday in the extraordinary scene because this is the setting normally of the city down below to face a level, a tented city where people have been living up to a month in the rough, waiting for some access to rail services. >> and so the hungarian authorities have not given any explanation to all of these

thousands of people who are waiting to get on their way? >> reporter: they certainly haven't and you can probably hear the crowd chanting now germany, germany. what happened on monday, a sequence of events where al jazeera was told by the government's spokesperson that categorically no refugees who don't have european visas would be allowed out of the country. then within a matter of hours trains were rolling. now whether it was coincidental that talks were taking place between hungry and germany is another matter because germany and france have been putting out a signal that the european ideal of free borders has to be respected and that the message really coming from the west of the eu is that firmness with compassion. but now what we are finding is there is more of a split occurring between the eastern blocks, the eastern block of the eu if you will and the west

because the east and countries like hungry particularly hungry feel that greece and italy are not doing enough to stop refugees and migrants getting across the borders into the eu. and hungry is insisting it is only doing the job that other eu states should be doing by restricting the refugees to what is a 175 kilometer fence. but they are also introducing much more draconian asylum laws and almost criminalizing the whole issue of crossing a border in legislation which is likely to pass through this week. and as you can see now we've got a crowd here chanting as much as they can and wanting some attention, wanting something done and there is no guidance from anybody, ngos or otherwise,

no one is exactly sure what will happen next, if a station will be open again or whether they are going to stay here and get some sort of bed for the night or whatever. but the austrians are also concerned about the real hazard nature of the way trains have been loaded up full to overflowing and going through with what they regard as poor safety standards. that has been one of the big problems on the border and some refugees have had to board effectively different trains that only go to vienna, not all the way to munich but no one has been given access from the crowd to the rail way station and police are firmly holding the line. >> for now andrew thank you very much, andrew simmons live outside of budapest main train station and pointed out thousands of people are trying to get on their way. urged to remove children from

its detention center on the pacific island of malu and allegations of abuse and rape to be investigated by a royal commission. the center which is effectively a prison was built in 2012 to house asylum seekers but abuse is widespread and 30 allegations of child abuse have been made against staff at the center and have been 15 allegations of sexual assault or rape and four allegations relate to the exchange of sexual favors for prohibited goods. the committee also recommended that the private company transfield services that operates the facility should be disqualified from doing so. concern about the detention center on malu has been growing, access is extremely difficult for both leadel organizations as well as human rights groups and as andrew thomas now explains

now from sidney. >> reporter: i went there three years ago when that camp was first being built into by australian military and at that time a labor government then was very keen to advertise and publicize the fact this off-shore camp was being built because they wanted it to act to stop asylum seekers getting on boats and coming to australia and it has worked. the boat has stopped coming. when the government changed about a year later to a more right wing hard line government they kept the camp open but closed down access to it completely. media organizations that tried to get in the room have tried many times and have to apply through the government and pay a fee to apply for a visa with 8,000 australian dollars, that is about $6,000 u.s. dollars just to apply for a visa to go there with no guaranty that a visa will be granted and even if it is with no access at all to the detention center so no media

organizations have been able to go and visit the camp at all. it's not just media organizations, australia human rights reputable organization and wing of the government to hold the government to account for off-shore camps have been denied access to them. even with this most resent report one of the sentences from the australian green party part of the committee looking into allegations she was able to go there and briefly to visit it but it turns out that while she was there she was spied on by guards the entire time she was there. her room was bugged. her car was followed and this information was relayed back to the detention center. you really get an idea there of what a black hole this camp has become and therefore how difficult it is to access and the dark things frankly that have been going on there that this report now highlights. al jazeera has been given an exclusive video shows pictures

of the late taliban leader and the pictures also show the group's new leader mansoo and there is an audio message from him and the faction, a key ally of the afghan taliban. let's get the very latest now from our correspondent in the capitol islamabad and what can we learn from these new pictures? >> reporter: well, first of all it is important to know that after the news broke and he had indeed died there was a lot of confusion and reports that there was in fighting, a splintering of sorts but the radio show the taliban reorganized and had been able to move through that transition in the radio and messages from the leader of al-qaeda also a message from the new taliban leader, monsur and

said several media outfits were spreading malicious rumors that taliban were united and determined to make this a decisive year as far as fighting was concerned so very important timing indeed. also a message from the deputy of the taliban leader that is head of the akani who is integral part of taliban and saying they will be remembered and already handed over power to monsur before he died and he was in charge of all the operations and also their operations would continue to indeed an important message. it appears the radio cannot be independently confirmed. >> we have to leave it there, the quality of the sound link is not brilliant at all but thank you very much indeed.

protecting that progressive legacy he can cancel this lease. it's not too late. >> reporter: president obama has made climate change a central part of his legacy and often talks about green energy and made it a priority in his budget but at the same time he is pushing for more drilling. when he took office the u.s. produced just over 5 million barrels of crude each day, in 2014 that number jumped to around 8.7 million, that is a 39% increase. the president defends that saying it will take time to get more green energy. >> our economy has to rely on oil and gas and as long as that is the case i believe we should rely more on domestic production than foreign imports and demand the highest safety standards in the industry, our own. >> reporter: the president's mission in alaska to focus the country on the impact climate change is having on land and not highlighting the cause of it just off the same coast, patty with al jazeera, washington.
