hungary declared a state of emergency in two border counties after detaining more than 9,000 refugees crossing from serbia. imposed tough new border controls blocking the mainland route and a four meter fence erected and it's a criminal offense to cross the frontier without permission from serbia, a country which is not in the eu. the eu chief is meeting with the u.n. high commissioner for refugees to discuss the crisis and called for unity and relocating them across member states. >> our unity or lack of unity internally has an impact on our credibility externally and on effect of that and it's in the last month in a very complicated

and very positive way. i come to what we do, united as europeans on external action on migration and refugees. we need the same level of unity and action on the internal policies in the european union, otherwise we are half. >> in the middle of these chaotic situation member states try to take their own measures and borders try to be more or less differently monitored and some in a very hash way as it was described and others in a softer way but it's as if europe each country is a piece in the puzzle but when you put the pieces together you discover that the pieces do not match any more and there is not such a space as europe acting together to be able to grant protection to those in need of protection. >> mohamed is in rushka on the hungary-serbia border and no lam

lots of people trying to get across to sush yeah but hungary has basically closed its doors. >> absolutely right, julie and, in fact, what we have heard in the past couple of hours in no way a surprise, first that hungary has imposed a state of emergency in two counties including where we are here right now and rustko on the border of serbia and have been expecting that for days and had been discussed in parliament and government officials indicated that would happen so the government here could better deal with the influx of refugees. beyond that also in announcement that at least 60 refugees have been arrested trying to cross in to hungary and that they will be charged. we also had been expecting that and heard for a couple of weeks now there are laws put in place that would make it easier to arrest refugees and charge them no matter their age so again none of that coming as a shock today. we have not seen too many refugees where we are right now

at the border and unofficial crossing last night and a train car outfitted with razor wire was brought here and where the fence is where so many refugees yesterday were crossing into hungary, now they can no longer do so at this crossing point. what has been happening is the few dozen refugees we have seen come to this point today in the hours leading up to this one they have been turned away and usually walk a couple kilometers down through a field and go to an official crossing point and try to get that way and that being said we are hearing from officials that the refugees on that side of serbia's border with hungary at the official crossing point are being denied entry and are hundreds of them and sitting there and pleading with officials to let them cross to hungary and being denied entry into this country. all being said and done despite the fact that hungary has now sealed this border and there is mounding pressure on hungary to deal in a corrective way with

the refugee crisis and pressure on the eu nothing when it comes to this crisis has been resolved and the influx looks as though it will continue unabated in the days to come, julie. >> you spent time with the refugees as they made a last desperate gash to get into hungry before the borders closed and what are they saying about how they are being treated or where they might go? >> well, many of the refugees we spoke with were from syria and they were from iraq and i met one iraqi father who brought his family with him, he had come from southern iraq and had been wounded due to clashes there, narrowly escaped with his life, decided he was going to get his family out of there and said he come all this way and gotten this far and gotten into europe and he is not going to be turned away and almost in europe and in serbia yesterday and is not going to let the new restrictions keep him from trying to get to germany where he ultimately wants to get and that is the attitude for most of

the refugees i'm speaking with and also spoke with a syrian refugee yesterday who paid $7,000 for small l -- smugglers and will work with them in order to get o-germany and really the refugees seem to be unfazed and they of course are concerned, they are worried about what is going to happen to them, many of them are worried if they are getting into hungary and if they are out of hungary but they say they are going to be undeterred and continue to try to make their way no matter the roadblocks that keep being put up in their way and on this desperate journey they are on, julie. >> thank you, mohamed in rustka there. at least 22 people have drown off turkey after the wooden boat they were in sunk and it was believed they were going to the greek island of kos and we are joined from istanbul and another

tragic tale of people trying to reach europe and tell us what happened. >> well, julie despite those new border controls in europe that mohamed has been talking about there seems to be no let up in refugees trying to transit through turkey to make it to western europe. we understand that this was a 20 meter long wooden boat, they are called galets in turkey and used to take tours off the coast of bodra and it was packed with 233 passengers and must have been completely ramp packed because normally not 100 comfortably on one of those boats and headed out to cos a dozen or so kilometers from the turkish coast when it sank and we don't know what made it sink at the moment. we know 22 people drown, 11 women and 4 children among them, 211 people rescued by the

turkish coast guard and brought back to bodrum and i have to say the last months it's very unusual these sorts of wooden boats would be used ford a crossing and really seeing large rubber inflatable dinghys being used and this vessel can carry many more people but have not seen them used. >> thank you for that and reporting live from istanbul there. the russian president vladimir pootin and they believe moscow positioned tanks at a syrian air base near latakia and sending two cargo flights a day within the past week and peter sharp has more from moscow. >> reporter: president putin confirmed he will continue to offer military support to president assad and the fights

have been stepped up now and this is sort of military equipment he says will be used solely in the fight against i.s.i.l. talk to analyst kremlin and you will see there is no willingness for an invasion of syria. they remember what happened in afghanistan and took them so long to get out but they also say that putin has got no intention of turning his back on president assad. he has real support in the assad government and his country has several bases there they would lose if assad was toppled from power. in the meantime putin is trying to put together a diplomatic offensive that would encourage the west to support a joint operation by syrian opposition groups and the syrian military against a common enemy, obviously that common enemy is i.s.i.l. and at the upcoming u.n. talks later this month this

will be hopefully for putin he will get an opportunity to sit down with president obama and put out those plans in detail. israeli police have again stormed alaxia compound known as temporal mount in occupied east jerusalem three times and 36 injured and tuesday is the end of the jewish new year when jews are allowed access to the site. palestinians fear israel wants to change the rules which allow jews to visit but not prayer. prime minister benjamin netanyahu says the rules won't change, the site in jerusalem is one of the hotly contested religious sites in the world and holy to muslims, jews and christians and home to two of the most important sites in islam, the mosque where we have seen more violence on tuesday and the dome of the rock. jewish tradition maintains this is where the final temple will be built when the messiah comes to earth.

the first thing she noticed was there was no school for girls. >> translator: we struggled to convince people they should allow their girls to go to school, i started with one tent and there were no books, pens, penci pencils, nothing. >> reporter: at first it was only a few students, now there are 140 girls. there are not enough rooms, some classes are even taught in a hot stuffy alcove. >> the children were backwards and didn't know about respect, dignity, hygiene and rights and earlier they were treated like animals and not asked if that i wanted to marry a particular man or not and now they give the girls the opportunity to decide. >> reporter: afghan refugees have been living here for so long that their temporary camp has now become a proper village but you won't see many women in the market. this is a very traditional society and people here are afghan refugees from the peshoon

tribe and women are kept indoors and out of sight so for years allowing their daughters to go to school was out of the question. and she was one of the elders in the community to support girls' education. >> translator: the school started at a time when the taliban was ruling the area that borders us. everyone was sending their children to religious school and everyone was scared and when we started this movement even i was threatened but if i die for sending girls to school i will die feeling proud. >> reporter: starting at a young age these girls will learn english and two other languages and in this society there is no chance for them to continue to study as young adults and many believe it would shame the family but perhaps with time that too will change. especially if she has anything to do with it. nicole johnston, al jazeera,
