venice film festival where juries have astounded critics by awarding the lion prize to first-time venzuelan director. austria has said it is suspending train services with germany as europe struggles to cope with the flood of refugees. the move comes as the german interior minister announced that berlin is set to reintroduce border controls with austria. germany remains the destination of choice, but authorities in munich say the city is now full to capacity. 13,000 people arrived on saturday with thousands more expected during the course of the weekend. the german government has called for more aid and urged the united states and gulf countries to do more to help. over 3 million syrians are currently living in refugee camps spread across turkey,

lebanon and jordan. in hungary, over 4,000 were detained on saturday. the country is preparing to introduce tough new laws tuz. we can speak to rob reynolds. he is on the line for us from berlin. rob, what more can you tell us about these reports that services between germany and austria has effectively been suspended? what does that tell us about europe's capacity to respond to what seems to be a worsening crisis? >> reporter: it will illustrates europe as a whole has not come up with an effective strategy to deal with the refugee crisis, and german, which has you mentioned, is the preferred destination for many of these refugees who are coming in to europe is now finding itself in a situation where its initial spot where refugees are

disgorged from trains coming from austria, munich, is completely full up, and the authorities there say that they can't house any more refugees even temporarily. so they have been calling upon the central government to do something and calling upon other german states to help out. so, now, the interior minister, thomas dimazier said germany will reinstate as a temporary measure, border controls. that is passport checks, et cetera, along the -- especially the austrian border and will not allow in people who do not have proper transit visas. the aim demazier said is to limit the flow of refugees and return to orderly procedures. so, the trains, at least temporarily, are stopping. >> will mean, i am sure that many refugees will be quiet upset with this and that the

flow will continue to back up even more like a blocked pipe, if you will. and the situation is complicated by the fact that on monday, interior and justice ministers from all the e u states are supposed to meet and hopefully talk about a common refugee policy, but as we reported, the eastern states, poland, hungary, the czech repuckblic of slovacia are adamantly opposed to accepting refugees or quota for refugees imposed by the eu. the european union is addition arare. germany can't handle any more refugees and the refugees continue to flow into europe. >> rob reynolds, thanks very much. joining us from berlin. mean bhooil, the greek coast guard has pulled the bodies of 28 refugees after the sea after a boat capsized off of an island

>> my friend was calling me, you don't have to come here because it's really pressure. it's really, really pressure. >> but now, it's much better? >> i am surprised what he told me and what i saw now, it's really a big difference. >> the transformation of this camp since i was last here is extraordinary. just two weeks ago, this was a squadid, woeful place, thousands of people sleeping and living for days on ends with virtually no assistance. well, now, there are decent sanitation facilities. there are proper tents. there are medical facilities. and there is a feeding station freely distributing food. i hate to think how this man would have coped before. gaziface fizel was shot through both legs in an isil attack in rutka in syria. he was studying biology. >> what does it mean to you to be here in europe away from

patrol the border, joining us live. tell us how germany's decision to temporarily stop trains to and from austria is likely to impact the refugees over there, mohammed. >> reporter: that news hasn't filtered to the refugees but all of the days we have been here, all of the refugees we have spoken with have said they ultimately want to get to germany. so certainly, this is going to worry them. now, they are concerned if they are actually going to be stuck in hungary. you have a situation here where the refugees behind us, many who have been in line for three, four hours here in the sun, many of them with their children, dehydrated not having had enough food to eat throughout the day. they are concerned about being stuck in a refugee camp that they are going to be taken to

and going to be finger printed at. all of the reffee uj ease he i have been speaking with have been worried about if they get finger printed, if they are going to be able to make it to jeremy thereach. this will is another layer of confusion to a kay on theic scene here on the border. i can tell you although conditions here in this makeshift camp have gotten better since yesterday, it is still very dire. you have families that are sleeping outside. they sort of -- this sort of makeshift tent city has grown in the past two days. in the past 24 hours, a record number of refugees cross over from serbia into hungary. well over 4,000 people in one day and it doesn't look like there is any end to that influx. what's complicating that situation even further is that just about a kilometer down the railroad trail from this right here, in that direction, they are closing the border. they are sealing the border with serbia. >> that's expected to be complete as of late tomorrow night.

they are going to be troops that are deployed there. there is a riser wire fence where the train ran through. even all those conditions are being prepared, the fact of the matter is the refugees are still coming in. from what we hear from the refugees that are here, they say the ones still in serbia will continue to try to make it through by any meansnesses. as of where we are right now, let's just see if we can pan the camera. can you just pan the camera slowly so you can try to give you an idea of how many people are there in line? and in any case, just come back to me. we are having some technical issues. as i said, about four to 500 people there behind us waving. they don't know when they are going to be able to get on that bus. they are concerned about what's going to happen next. mirian. >> thank you very much indeed. mohammed jamjoon on the border with serbia. you can see many refugees have

gathered, continued making their journey further north into europe. now, moving to our other top stories, israeli police have fought with palestinians at the mosque compound in jerusalem. police say they entered the court yard to arrest palestinians who were throwing stones, but the palestinian president, mac mood abbas c condemned the move. he said the confrontation came hours before the start of the jewish new year. israeli police have defended their actions and say they had no choice but to intervene. fireworks were fired from inside the mosque, which is supposed to be and which is considered to be one of the holy did he havecites, were fired at our police officers police officer at our police officers and only shot the front doors without entering inside the mosque whatsoever. our police unit did do patrol the temple area to make sure it's safe, pun order and also because it's within such a close area of the western wall where

there are hundreds of people that are praying on the other side. and i am talking about where the western wall area is necessary for officers to intervene. the heightened security is a standard security measure, which is due to the fact we have the jewish sfeft values over the next couple of weeks inside jerusalem. and thousands will be visiting the old city in the different areas in order to celebrate. >> well, the secretary general of the palestinian national initiative has accused the israeli police of being dishonest. >> theisitioni police is lying. they have lied many times before, and they are lying again, and i think respectful t.v. stations should not listen to the lies. you should investigate objectively what happened, and i believe an objective examination of this situation, as you can see, how can they throw tear gas bombs inside the mosque, inside a place where people pray peacefully. as you can see from the scenes, the army is using the fire bombs and the tear gas and it is

practicing aggression. what israel is trying to do is impose a system of racism where jewish israelis are given privileges, not only at the western wall but they want them also to enter the mosque >> the islamic site, holy to muss let me people. would the israeli army allow me to pray in the mosque? we are living through apartheid and discrimination. and himself an illegal settler in the territories enters the mosque, they are provoking religious feelings and religious conflict. this is unacceptable. >> there is still much more to come for you on,as. south africa's steel industry struggles to stay in business. many are saying china is responsible. sc scan . >> i am andy gallagher where the

steel imports have gone up by 20%. unions want governments to protect the local industry by hiking tariff. we view this as nothing there is than a national crisis. we think in south africa for any person who has a job support five to six extended family, but if you allow this industry to be destroyed, it will take more than 10 years to try and rebuild it. >> there may not be a clearcut solution. >> the sting in the whole thing is if you give protection at the beginning of the pipeline, everybody down the line will suffer from it. when you protect your economies, normally, you get price escalation, lower gross, et cetera. so there is a danger if you go too far again to the other side with the pentecostal lum that well run into the same constraints. >> so far, the response from government appears to be positive. gu with talks resuming weeks

we have had the particular attention to the quality, also. >> the american red cross which raised close to half a billion dollars after the earthquake has been accused of letting the people of haiti down by squa squandering money and failing to deliver aid to those most in need. one of the most serious accusations is that they only built six new homes, something the red cross leaders here say is nothing short of a dangerously. >> in that sense, i feel very sad about that because those are lives that well not be able to save in the future if the population does not have that confidence that they should have and that's because we are doing a great job. >> they say they face certainysous challenges. they did acknowledge the months after the earthquake were chaotic and leaked e-mails criticizing aid efforts are understandable given the stress many were under. but they point to their work

here and investments in other parts of the country as examples of real progress. >> i have been coming to haiti since the skwait and watched many different communities trying to rebuild but nothing on this scale or to these standards. if this is the red cross's flagship project here, then it certainly seems to be making big strides. >> they did some good things. they are doing better things now. but at the time, it was a mess. >> john makes belarive who oversaw reconstruction efforts has been a defendant vocal critic of the american red cross and other ngos. he claims most are arrogant and they ignored the haitian authorities in the crucial days after thequake. >> they have the global altitude. we have the solution. we are going to do that and you don't have to tell me what to do with the money that i receive i don't have to give you an explanation. >> the american red cross's reputation here is now under scrutiny. the organization denied all of the accusations leveled against
