the terminator pleads not guilty in a trial in the hague. >> we have sports for you coming up. the rugby team clear to go to the world cup. >> refugee crisis continues to dominate across europe. now calling for a review of the way that the european union deals. between them the countries have taken more than half of those who have sought refugee in the past year and now are calling for a fairer distribution of people around the continent. in hungary where thousands of refugees are still being denied access to the railway station the frustrations are boiling

over. the refugees want to board trains to travel into germany. but they have stopped issuing tickets for those who are without passport or visas. >> the demonstrations have become more heated. scuffles have wrote brok broke out. the demonstrators themselves, the police are standing by, but it's getting closer and closer to conflict. >> no police, they chanted as they try to form another line between the police and refugees. eventually the police pushed forward clearing the road and

the demonstrators backed off, and it did not come to all-out confrontation. throughout wednesday protests have been getting louder. hungarian railway staff have been ordered not to sell tickets to anyone without vitaes or passports. it's excruciating for families having to sleep on walkways in hopes that the hungarian policy will change. that looks more and more unlikely. one level down, this is a transit zone. it's been in place since the crisis began. >> we stay here in this station. i will stay here.

we look for other ways. >> what he means is being smuggled across the border, although he was not sure that he could forward that option. there are fears that the hard line decisions coors refugees will only encourage smuggling. >> they want to go to the rest of the european countries. they will opt for the services of human smugglers. >> it is key order. obviously the people shouldn't be there following european protocols after being apprehended at the border as illegal migrants. they have designated places where they should stay and wait until their cases are being judged. >> for now everyone here has to struggle with the reality of their situation. many say that they've been through worse danger and hardship than this. >> let's joy andrew live in

budapest. 60 minutes ago, andrew, we saw a little bit of a scuffle live on tv. you were being jostled in your report. have emotions calmed down at all? they are stopping any refugees from getting out of this square. really, there are thousands in this situation.

there are masses of people. this is a transit zone. it has been in existence since the beginning. and everyone is in a terrible state down there. up here it's crowded. no one is sure what is going to happen next. there are rumors that some refugees, syrian refugees could go to austria. there are rumors that there could be a move on the area with people going to camps. camps where they should really resettle having brought their papers for asylum claims. but really it's a situation two days in to this cries here where people are despairing but with a firm resolve not to be moved. >> andrew, if hungary changes the laws as is being suggested might well do, some of those people are going to end up being kicked out of hungary? and if so, to where?

>> a large amount of them of these changes. any sharing of the load of refugees in europe. we've had this announcement in italy that italy, germany and france, the foreign ministers have signed a document which actually calls for a total shake up. they want that change. that document being sent for consideration in a foun foreign

minister meetingsing. that is quite soon. the smaller economies, in particular the right-wing government wanting to turn what it terms the economic migrants around. send them back to serbia to complete this 175 kilometer razor wire fence of nearly four meters high. finish that off. the detention centers around that, fast track, asylum hearings and criminalized the

act of entering this country. that's hardly with what we're hearing from the e.u. foreign ministers of germany, france, and italy. we have a massive amount of tradition here. >> thank you. andrew simmons there in budapest. well, in syria 11 have died off the coast of turkey. five more are missing. their boats sunk. three children are among the victims. local pictures show their bodies washed up on the beach, pictures we have decided not to show. italian nav five navy has rescued 90 people off a twinkie in the mediterranean sea.

nuclear missile. >> well, white house officials are telling my colleague patty culhane that they are not only feeling good, but they have the 34 senators who could prevent any bill from being passed and bakley keeping it from being stopped. but they also are feeling good about their chances of getting perhaps at least seven more senators to basically try to derail the debate on any resolution that would try to stop the deal with iran on its nuclear weapons program. this is a long time in u.s. politics, six or seven days until the senate or house are back in session, there could be that little chance that someone could be pushed to change

ownership mine. in the meantimeis meantimeish, the hubble awareness, as it wore, continue top secretary of state john kerry was in philadelphia earlier on wednesday talking about some of the reasons why this measure is needed, and explaining to the people in the unions of in terms of the u.s. national security concerns. >> iran has agreed never to pursue key technologies that with a be necessary to decontrol ocontrol the device. we can sum up by saying that without this agreementel irans would have several potential

pathways to a bomb. with it, they won't have any. >> president obama is not going to be there, so what the democratic party does not take the next presidential election if it is a republican president, does that mean all of this work. all of this plan, all of this con joeling and lifting of sanctions would be knick nixed? >> you're talking about a period of 16-17 months. that is a lot of time. that could be enough to basically solidify the process assuming that iran complies with all the terms of the graeme. it would be pretty difficult to role things back. that does not mean that the members of congress are not going to try to roll things back, we've seen candidates for the party's nomination say would

get a deal. this is a deal that would include the other members of the u.n. security double. without their support essentially this deal goes nowhere. if the u.s. would whack away, that means it is seen as pulling it apart. anyone coming in to the oval office in 2017 will look very carefully from orang before they try to pull it apart. >> the former congolese leader pled not guilty to 18 charges of murder and rape. he is in a criminal court in

the hague killing at least 800 people between 2002 and 2003. now barnaby phillips. >> he was a feared warlord that went by the nickname the terminator. now he only has his lawyer to defend him. >> the crime against humanity. >> it took 15 minutes to read out all the charges against him, and a litany of gruesome crimes. he listened calmly. >> do you plead guilty or not guilty to each of those 18 countries you are charged with? --18 counts you are charged with? >> not guilty, he said. the prosecution alleges that he ordered his troops to rape and

murder, and that he carried out murders himself. >> justice for the people of the democrati democratic republic of the congo. the lives lost, ravaged and destroyed. >> he's being charged only with crimes that took place from 2002 to 2003 in etouri province. the icc does not have the resources to investigate later. they had looked at the possibility of holding this trial in the eastern conference so people could see things being done at close quarters. that brings the decision to hold the trial here in the hague. human rights groups say that this is an important moment for international justice. >> we hope that it sends a strong warning to others we hope

that loud and clear they make up with them one day, and we hope that we can stop the crimes. >> the icc is often criticized both on focusing only on africa, and for failing to bring in many for justice. but for so many people who have healt powerless, they view this as a strong development. >> the ultimate goal to regain the capital. a warning from the united nations that war and economic blockade could mack th make war

we do know that the shia militias and their political backers have been critical of turkey's role in the fight against isil. even some of them blaming and accusing regular can i being of being on rocky road. what is clear is that the security situation in the capital is still very much precarious, and you know, the rule of law and the very fact that armed groups can really operate with impunity. this has really been a concern for the people of this country. >> isil has stonel in two attacks. thedoming o of a mosque as

claims that, the territory could be inhabitable. the israeli war destroyed huge areas of gaza. half a million people were displaced. more than 20,000 houses were destroyed. but a report about the t. and destruction. >> the towns are about to collapse, and we need to open the border and encourage reconciliation and begin the reconstruction of gaza. >> eight years of economic sanctions and three israeli conflicts meant that gaza has not been able to rebuild, nor

allowed to develop its economy. unemployment was at 44% last year, the highest on record. if unemployed fisherman has eight children. >> the future of our children is lost. i feel sorry that most of our people are suffering and gaming. >> the report calls it a condition of the development. it's more than just the halt of development in gaza, the situation is sliding backwards. the economic situation has not lifted. >> teach necessary kenya have gone on strike, they say, until they get a pay raise of 50%. the supreme court agreed with the demand and ordered the government to pay up. more on that story from catherine soi. >> this is a family now out of

>> they should be paid. if it wasn't for them people would not be aware. >> the government has asked teachers to give them time to look for money to pay up. teachers say they're tired of dialogue. that started two years ago. the supreme courts that ordering the government to keep them at their rate. they have gone back and ask the goff for--gof government for the race. she only takes home $100.

and former congolese rebel leader pleading not guilty at the beginning of his war crimes trial in the haig. a judge in the united states has rejected a plea to drop charges against six police over the death of a man in custody. the officers face charges including second-degree murder and manslaughter in the death of freddie gray, who sustained spinal injury after being arrested and dying in police custody in april. the falling crime late in the united states has seen a reversal of that trend. violent crimes and murders have surpassed 2014's figures.

>> every day after school this is where children living in one of baltimore's most violent neighborhoods is can come to an escape. jurrel brown is one of them. >> i come here because of all the drugs and killings that go on around here. >> so erica austin created a kids safe zone to provide refugee huge for children afte from this. crime rates spiked limited opportunities for climbing out the poverty. but instead of waiting for the city to come up a solution,

austin came up with her own solution. >> we created a safe haven for every child in this community. at first we had 40 days. by the end of july we have over 100 children. she had no funding, so she went to social media. >> it was said that it was this grassroots approach when others have failed. >> rather than to reinvest, bring talent, hard work and all those values, keeping them in the community. i think that it's all about giving back. that's what this woman is doing. >> i believe that the core to our problem, and why our children are killing each other is because no one has valued our lives. we can #black lives matter all day every day, but if no one is

teaching them and showing them that they really matter, do they really matter? >> she's determined to show some of america's most disadvantaged children that they do matter, and to end the cycle of crime and poverty and hopelessness that is found all across the united states. >> the president is giving his annual peac speech at a time when his approval rating is at all an time low because of his lavish lifestyle. >> welcome to mexico senate where wealth is unashamedly on show. the new political year is kicking off with the president's annual report. the game remains the same. >> the problem is mexico

politics is about getting rich. therefore the gap between the poor and applications widen. we're part of a system that is fundamentally corrupt. >> for a country struggling with mass poverty, they earn more with extras and bonuses than their counterparts in the u.k. france, spain, and almost as much as the u.s. but while those salaries bear some relation to their country's minimum wage, the people earn 117% more than the people who live on the sidewalks. >> almost half the mexicans live in poverty. that's a number that's been going up in recent years. lunch is-day-old fish. that's all she can forward from the market.

what she earns in a year is less than what the senator makes in two weeks. >> i had to save and save to earn enough for a wheel barrel. >> a house built for president peña nieto's house, he's the less favorite leader in the past 20 years. >> if there is room for operating. >> a warning to legislature that at some point those who elected them may demand a bigger share of the wealth. john hole man, al jazeera, mexico and i. john, not a popular man, president, that is, how does he go about change that? >> yes, he's not popular at the

moment. everything things, and he actually started opposite thi this--which is quite usually, especially in his administration, where he's to hide things as little as possible. he referred to the disappearance of 43 students, something that shocked the nation, he referred it to the state of the most wanted criminal on his watch, and referred it to the conflict of interest. the latino things he referred to, he decided that now wassel moment. ehe'll face them head on. he is reflecting the fact that the mexicans have lack of

confidence in his government, and he's trying to arrest that lack of confidence. >> the world's governing refugees in europe are not working. according to many politicians, academics, and ngos. there is an emergency meeting september 14th to come up with some solution. >> at least 310,000 people mainly refugees have arrived in europe this year. many on boats from libya to italy or turkey to greece. 62% of the refugees are from three countries. syria, afghanistan, and eretreia. they're fleeing from war and oppression. they say that the migrants and refugees who arrive in europe must be processed at their point of industry. italy and greece said that puts them under pressure. then you have the agreement

covering most of continental europe. it ashowers refugees to travel freely across the european union. other countries are allowing refugees through without processing them. many are trying to make it north through macedonia, hungary, and into germany. but for now germany has suspended the regulation for syrians. they say they're able to apply for asylum in german and will not be sent to their point of entry in europe. >> let me ask about the work that your organization is doing in trying to make the journeys that these people are undertaking that much easier for them.

>> they are telling horrifying stories of people who are losing brothers, husbands in war. then having children abused on the passage to europe, and then in the worse cases seeing people that they're with on boats across the aegean, mediterranean drown on the ways to the shores of europe. you're right in the set up of this as a christ. it's a moral crisis. >> who is failing whom here? >> i think there are two aspects to one has got to say as long as the wars in syria, somalia,

congo continue to rage, then it's going to be impossible to deal with the refugee. the first failure is the international, diplomatic failure of a very significant kind. the conflict has been going on for five years. a major political failure of the international community. there is also a specific european failure over the last two or three years leaders have been focused on the greek euro crisis. on the ukraine conflict with russia and frankly their eye has not been on this ball. 9 european countries are hoping that greece and italy would deal with this on their own. but there is no way that those countries would handle the number. you see an outbreak from germany. they're putting the rest of europe to shame in the way they're responding.

they're now dealing with the people who have arrived, recognizing that the causes need to be addressed. >> expand on this a bit. what are the rest the countries doing that they should be doing? >> essentially you've got greece and italy receiving most of the refugees sweden has shown a willingness to take 30 to 50,000 of people.

but the other 26 members of the european union really doing very little at all there are a couple of things that are immediately important. first of all, greece and italy need to be helped in processing the people who arrived because what we're finding on lesbos is where until the last few weeks there are insufficient toilets and sanitation. the registration now needs to take place. it's very important to maintain the long held ideal of people fleeing for their lives. >> i want to ask you about economic migrants. an awful lot of the commentary is if these people are looking

for somewhere safe to say, they would stop in the first safe place to they are going on to the richer countries in a sense making them economic migrants. >> the first place these people are stopping are in the neighboring states where the wars are taking place. these are people who have been in jordan, turkey, iraq, and lebanon over the last three or four years. remember lebanon has god more than a million refugees. the first stop, and then fleeing further into europe. no one could believe that greece on its own is able to take care

of the kind of numbers of people arriving. it's very important that we don't fall for what was frankly a missed statement, an incorrect statement that people who are fleeing for their lives become economic migrants rather than refugees. they insist that they be treated as refuge refugees. >> you hold particularly strong words for your own country. you almost labeled the u.k. a moral coward in this. >> i never used the phrase moral coward. there is is a history of

refugees. they would welcome refugee children from central and eastern children, and it's in that context that there are long-standing traditions in britain which have subsequently been matched in other countries over the last 30, 40, 50 years that need to be upheld. >> thank you for joining us. david from international rescue, thank you. >> thank you for your time. >> you are watching the al jazeera news hour. we'll have this in just a moment. [singing] >> the first city on that

continent to host the commonwealth games. we're standing by with all the details.

>> we have more now. >> thank you very much. the ruby squad for the world cup in england. the springbok have been given the all clear. the hay court alleging racist selection of its players has now been dropped. they tried to block the team from legal action. the agency for the new agenda of

the rugby union was not fulfilling its obligations in the transformation policies. >> there is a feeling amongst a lot of people that rugby is maybe the last institution of society where they can express themselves--the-- themselves in south africa. there is a jealous guarding of rugby, but it's not done with regards to black people. >> the squad was led widely viewed of reconciliation. they would head to england with

nine non-white players. they said they met their quota. th >> it's not going to keep them excluded. many are excluded from this team. there is that issue as well if you're not afrikaans speaking, you're not going to make it in the springs box set up. for them to deal with this issue, we need to take politics out of this issue and maybe come together as real sports people and deal with this issue. the people who are affected by this issue every time they're

excluded with those workshops because of these policies. >> serena williams continues her slam pursuit. >> the correcter. years ago when he was just a few months old he became seriously ill. the local clinic at his village had no idea what was wrong with him, so his family took him to a witch doctor. but after drinking an herbal possession, his foot turned black and his fingers started to fall off. his leg had to be amputated.

>> there has always been a distance between me and the rest of society. when i was a child no one would play sports with me. they would say i can't play properly. >> this week he's proving them wrong. he's representing his country at an international twenty20 cricket tournament. a shorter version of the game. >> all these children will see this player and think, hey, i can do that, too. >> a few non-profits run a few programs for their disabled clients. for some players like mohammed, the classes he didn't have

access, and the hard work has made it worth it. >> i was the only one in high class who said i wanted to be a cricket player. everyone laughed because how could an one-armed boy become a professional sportsman. now when i think about that, it makes me mile a--smile a little. >> it's not just sports facilities. children and adults with disabilities have huge services catering to them in bangladesh. but as this tournament gets under way, many hom hope that the event will help improve the lives with disabilities. >> well, the coastal city in south africa will host the commonwealth games. it will be the first time that it will have been held in africa. the.

>> we accelerate the infrastructure improvement. it is great skilled development. >> executives have denied rewriting a script for a new movie which would make the nfl look bad in the way that it dealt with concussions. the movie is called "concussion" starring will smith who plays a doctor who links the concussio concussions. >> the film called "concussion" is already causing controversy. smith plays a doctor who identified early brain trauma and believes there are alleged

attempts to cover up the issue. it airs on monday, and it certainly pulled no punches. but "the new york times" reported that "concussion" was altered to avoid antagonizing the nfl. something that the director strongly denies. one e-mail written in augusta of last year by dwight cain said we'll develop messages with the help of a nfl consultant to make sure that we're telling a dramatic story and not kicking the hornet's nest, another saying that the league was encouraged on the ongoing coverage of the brain safety. the issue of long-term brain injuries has long brought

controversy to the sport. >> there was a settle between the league and players suffering from head trauma, but the release of this picture, goes right to the middle of the nfl season will seen by many as more bad publicity for america's biggest sport. >> robin, good to see you. this russian spacecraft is now on its way to the international space station carrying the first danish astronaut. flying with the second generation of cosmonaut from kazakhstan who got his seat after the singer sara brightman pulled out. instead of the usual six hours the crew will take a leisurely two days because the space station has to change its orbit to avoid the junk up there. this is it from our team.
