5:01 am
i will have all your sport including a new report by russia is still violating antidoping rules plus republican frontrunner donald trump pays a visit in florida as he comes up from the pack to win back to back titles. ♪ hello there, i'm in brussels where european leaders are gathering for a meeting with turkey, it's an emergency summit to talk about the biggest refugee crisis in europe since the second world war and believe the leaders that some kind of solution may be inside depending on help from turkey, already a draft communication released by the eu on sunday all but closed the balkin route that so many have taken to arrive from germany from greece, macedonia
5:02 am
and serbia and going to greece where it's failing and seekers and economic migrants crossing from turkey with no where to go and we have reporters on every stage of the route and we are on the turkish-syria border home to more than 100,000 refugees and we are on the greek island of lesbos the first point of entry for those making the journey from the aegean and then north where they are standing by on the greek-macedonia border and a humanitarian crisis is following there and dominick cane in the german capitol berlin the promised land where so many people hope to build a better life and we will start with omar who sent us this report on the border between turkey and syria. >> reporter: turkey already has
5:03 am
more than 2.2 million syrian refugees and those are registered officially, the unofficial number reaches up to three million including other nationalitys and as you can imagine they put a lot on the turkish infrastructure and spent over $7 billion hosting refugees since the crisis started five years ago and the deal with the eu is to put pressure on turkey to stop the flow of migrants and promising turkey with $3.3 billion u.s. dollars and how turkey will send that it will spend it on integrating syrian refugees into turkey, they will build more schools and hospitals and they will give syrian refugees an opportunity to find work and give them work permits. now turkey says it is doing what it can to help the syrian peo e people.
5:04 am
the journey from turkey to greece may be across a narrow stretch of water but with vent vengence and many died and to lesbos and there is death at sea of migrants and they are going out with their boats and admitting the refugees and migrants while they are on rubber dinghys and trying to rescue as many as possible. this boat behind me is supposed to go any time now for the third time this morning to bring in some of the refugees. once on greece soil what happens to the refugees is they are taken where they are registered and temporary shelter to athens and taken to the northern border
5:05 am
where thousands have be stuck for days and my correspondent is there. >> the refugees here have been waiting to hear about the results of the meetings in brussels later on today, some of them have been stranded now for two weeks and we have been seeing over the past few days many complaining they completely ran out of cash and basically relying on handouts at this stage. there is a feeling certainly here that the balkin route is closed even though there was a trickle of people going through the past few days and many of them were stopped at macedonia's northern border with serbia and many of them pushed back here now the refugees would like to know what are the clear guidelines, who will be considered a refugee or not because some have been pushed back because of their city of origin and what will be the new modalities for them to reach northern europe, many of them wanting to go to germany where
5:06 am
dominick cane is because they have husbands or the rest of their family there already. >> thank you so much and let's move on as hada said now into the heart of europe in germany where dominant cane is standing by in the capitol berlin, germany of course dominick the receptacle of the refugees in the last year or so and more than a million people and i wondered dominick how much of the pressure for a solution that is currently happening here in brussels comes from the fact that germany is losing patience and losing tolerance for these numbers? >> well, john, i'm at the center here in berlin, this is where the refugees come when they first arrive in the german capitol and they get registered as you can see the process and the cueing behind me and perhaps 500 refugees arrive everyday and getting something to eat and drink and stay for a time but as
5:07 am
you say this issue is perhaps the most from negligent issue in german politicians and the situation is more and more voices are being raised suggesting that the german society is increasingly unhappy with the society that angela merkel has concentrated on so much and it's not just in the society it's also in her passing as i have been finding out there is dissatisfaction now with the policy that has become so associated with angela merkel. the late winter sun has brought out the customers at the mart. this part of berlin is in the political center grand where the main parties vie for top spot. opinion polls suggest angela merkel's popularity is waning but what do people here make of her policies. >> translator: surprised by the course of the government and known for being conservative so i was pleasantly surprised by the humanity. >> translator: the counselor has lost my support 100% and i
5:08 am
used to be a real fan but in this instance she has totally gone in the wrong direction. >> the problem for angela merkel and her democrats is views like those are increasingly common in germany with several key regional elections taking place in the next few weeks some of her senior parliamentary colleagues are now becoming increasingly concerned. and he is an influential and out spoken member of the city and he says he has been receiving more and more letters from constituents about the refugee policy. >> translator: we are seeing one country after another is closing down around us, as long as we keep up our current practice the other countries say if germany is happy to take them why should we take them on. >> reporter: and on the international stage angela merkel's position is questioned, at a resent refugee crisis in vienna the hosts did not invite
5:09 am
the german government where she says they should not close their borders to refugees, they disagree but she is defiant. >> translator: those who need protection and seek it out should get it despite all critical polls more than 90% of the german population says those who flee from terror, war and persecution should be protected, i think that is wonderful. >> reporter: but whether people agree back at the valkin mark and elsewhere is another question, dominick cane, al jazeera, berlin. well, despite political difficulties in germany, germany and other countries may well need to accept even more refugees, that is because the deal that they are going to try and strike here in brussels with turkey involves the eu agreeing to resettle large numbers of refugees in camps inside turkey, in other words providing them a
5:10 am
legal route of turkey in return where turkey would have large scale readmissions of asylum seekers and migrants currently building up in greece, that is the idea, the way of solving this problem, it looks great on paper, it will be extremely difficult in practice because there is no consensus among the 28 members of the european union here and very little appetite for refugees legal or otherwise and turkey will drive an extremely hard bargain in the process and back to you in doha now. ♪ let's turn our attention to other world news and killed from a raid in libya and happened in the town of ben gardane and we are on the live from tunisia and
5:11 am
where more do you know about ben gardane and are things under control? >> there are conflicting reports, there are reports that everything is under control that is coming from the ministry of interior and sources say there is sporadic fighting going on and it does seem to be from what i know one of the most organized, simultaneous attacks in resent times here in ben gardane and attacks carried up to and possibly dozens of armed fighters on an army barracks around and close there as well as a national guard as well. now the clashes involved heavy weaponry and understand the armed fighters have rocket propelled grenades as well. the fighting went on for a while and we understand we saw a number of casualties and a number of deaths and soldiers
5:12 am
injured and we understand that some people were killed too and also at least three civilians dead as well. now this comes as no surprise to many people here. this is the cause and ben gardane has become a head for smuggling and known for exporting fighters to libya and it's just about 30 kilometers away from ben gardane. >> thank you very much for the update on the situation in ben gardane on the line there. in pakistan nine people have been killed in a suicide bombing near a court building in the northwest, at least three police are among the dead, 27 others were wounded in the attack, eyewitnesses say they talked him into entering in the town and a group affiliated with the pakistan taliban says it carried out the attack. thousands of palestinian teachers are holding this by the

prime minister's office in ramallah and the walk out left a million students in the occupied west bank out of school. now to the u.s. presidential race and contaminated water has dominated the latest democratic debate, bernie sanders and hillary clinton went head to head in flint, michigan where the local water supply has been polluted with lead. kimberly hawk reports. >> reporter: the headline at the flint debate, why almost two years later the water in this city is still contaminated with lead. and if president what each democratic candidate would do about it. >> president sanders would fire anybody who knew about what was happening and did not act appropriately. >> i know the state of michigan has a rainy day fund for emergencies, what is more
5:14 am
important than the health and well-being of the people particularly children, it is raining lead in flint. >> reporter: flint's water became tainted with lead when officials switched the water supply to a more contaminated source to cut cost. the water is not the only issue plaguing flint or the state of michigan, the state lost tens of thousands of manufacturing jobs as a result of globalization and trade agreements bernie sanders says high school high school supported. >> secretary clinton has discovered religion on this issue but it's a little bit too late. secretary clinton supported virtually every one of these disaster trade agreement. >> the they voted the way he did i believe the auto industry would have collapsed taking four million jobs with it. >> reporter: clinton was on sanders in the contest with almost three times the delegates and clinton already positions
5:15 am
herself as the presumptive nominee. >> i appreciate it. >> reporter: ready to challenge the republican frontrunner. >> as of last night donald trump had received 3.6 million votes which is a good number and there is only one candidate in either party who has more votes than him and that is me. >> reporter: bernie sanders did collect another victory in the u.s. state of maine but far behind for the delegation and that is why the march 15 contest in iowa, florida and illinois if bernie sanders wants to close the gap to win the presidential nomination, al jazeera, washington. returning now to the strike by palestinian teachers in the occupied west bank let's return to ramallah now and standing by for us and the strike is now in
5:16 am
its fourth week and tell us about when negotiations stand between the striking teachers and the palestinian authority. >> well, just to explain exactly who is here first of all, there are several thousand teachers and government school teachers from across the occupied west bank who have come to demonstrate not far from the prime minister's office here in ramallah even though they have been told it's an illegal gathering and there have been many checkpoints where they say many teachers have been prevented from come erring -- coming here and have been protesting for a month and it is dignity for teachers, dignity they say because the basic salary for many is just $500 u.s. dollars and say there was an agreement years ago to boost that but out it has not translated into reality and they are also chanting for justice, justice in comparison to other
5:17 am
government sector workers. for example many teachers compare their situation to the security forces for 2015. the budget from the palestinian authority for members of the security forces there was one and a half times teachers' salaries and they say that is simply not right and led to the anger that you can probably hear and see behind me. >> a lot of teachers are on the streets today of ramallah, how long are they prepared to continue striking if their demands are not met? >> i think you are asking about what happens next in negotiations, on sunday night there were talks with them of temporary teachers striking teachers committee but that wasn't with the government, that was with parlimentarians and will negotiate talk but the
5:18 am
teachers behind me are very angry because they say the union is far too close to the government. they say it was appointed by the palestine liberation organization and does not represent them at all. they want fresh elections and they also want to see the previously agreed salary right as implemented straight away and they are promising to stay on strike for as long as it takes for the moment, the gathering here is peaceful but there are many tensions because some of the teachers say that the only thing that is going to happen to make or improve their living conditions is if this body, the official union is actually disbanded, that is clearly sensitive for the government. >> thank you very much live in ramallah in the occupied west bank and time for a check on the world weather with stef and finally much needed rain arriving in the u.s. state of
5:19 am
california. >> that is right california finally gets wet weather which is good news particularly given how dry february was. usually during and el nino year we see an awful lot of wet weather in california, el nino is when the pacific waters are warmer than usual and it was dry across the state and happiness has finally returned because we have this weather system working its way across parts of california and the thick cloud is working through san francisco and southward and looks like los angeles should see a great deal of rain today and importantly expecting a fair amount of snow on sierra nevada and that is important because melting snow supplies residents of california with drinking water during the summer so important to see snow as well as rain and over the next few days as the system works its way eastward it begins to break up because the energy
5:20 am
transfers to here and it's over texas and this system is going to cause quite a few problems through the next few days because it's stuck really and ahead of it we have high pressure and high pressure is big flabby things that do not like to go anywhere in a hurry and cannot go eastward and cause major problems and likely to give us problems with tornados and maybe some damaging hail as well. eventually though this system will try and edge its way eastward but all the time it's blocked by the high pressure out to the east and it's sucking up a load of moisture from the gulf of mexico, many of us in north america will see very lively weather as we head through the day on wednesday. plenty of wet weather working all the way up in the eastern parts of canada, ahead of it when we have high pressure you would never know anything is happening and it's going to be warm and sunny and it's going to be very nice. >> thank you very much indeed stef and president barack obama described her as the woman who
5:21 am
redefined the role of first lady nancy regan the wife of ronald reagan has died at 94 and we look back at her life. >> reporter: in this moment nancy reagan symbolized the grief of a nation burying her husband after a long battle of alzheimer's and her devotion to rona ronald reagan and born in 1921 nancy was a nickname and she was an actress but when she was on the black list as expected communist she turned to the actor ron reagan for help and married a few years later and did one movie together and put their career aside to raise the two children and help his political career from governor of california to u.s. president elected in 1980. >> i think i may have helped a little maybe.
5:22 am
>> reporter: there were often questions about how much she helped. this incident reenforced the idea that she was really running the show. >> doing everything we can. >> thank you. >> reporter: she denied having that much control but later admitted she did play a role in her husband's presidency. >> i was more aware always of people who were running him and he wasn't. so i would step in and say you got to watch out for him. >> reporter: that meant she often clashed with his staff much more so after the assassination attempt when she demanded final say over his schedule. it made headlines when it was revealed she was consulting and astrologer first and as a first lady she was often controversial, raised in the life of privilege she was often portrayed as elitist for remodeling the white house and the money was donated like many of her expensive designer gowns
5:23 am
but did not stop the criticism. as first lady she championed pairing the elderly at risk youth and telling kids to. >> just say no. >> reporter: this brought numbers down a bit but made little difference to the statistics and she impacted the research of stem cell research convinced it could have provided help to her ailing husbands she pushed republicans to abandon their moral objection and forced george w bush to find a compromise allowing some research to be done. her life she said began the day she married her husband and love and devotion to him and his legacy will in many ways define her own. now to bolovia where a doctor's invention is providing an inexpensive way to keep babies alive and born the andies

5:32 am
now. this camp here organized by the big french medical aid agency msf started to operate a few hours ago. you might be able to see behind me the field kitchen msf is a very experienced aid agency and used to working to rapidly responding to humanitarian crisis overseas and yet here we see them having the same kind of response to a crisis here at home and in france. we have seen some bus loads of people being brought from the squallar conditions they have been living and looking relieved and understandably so because they now will live in wooden chalets with washing facilities and hot food and when you bear in mind the awful cold, wet conditions they have been living in you can understand how happy they are to be here. >> what is happening down the
5:33 am
road in cally? >> it is not just here this camp in dunkirk and hopes to house 2500 refugees and migrants and the fact it's run by an ngo a nongovernmental organization seems to be significant. we have experienced in resent weeks and months when we are in cally in the infamous jungle camp and part of which was cleared last week we find a lot of miss trust and suspicion among refugees regarding the authorities. now there has been an effort down the road in cally to provide more decent accommodation, a container park has been opened but that was set up by the authorities and refugees have to give palm prints before being allowed to give access there and there is fear there can be some ruse, some trick of authorities to register them to get fingerprints in order to prevent
5:34 am
them continuing on with their journey or possibly to return them so there is suspicion to the authorities which is why there has been reluctance to move to container park because here in dunkirk as i said the new camp is run by a nongovernmental organization and does seem to be more trust and confidence among the refugees. >> jackie roland reporting from northern france. lawsuits have been filed by the grieving relatives of the second anniversary approaches of the disappearance of malaysia flights and started this against the airline and boeing in kuala-lumpur remember their family with 239 people on board vanished from radar after take off on march 8, 2014. >> they can stop the search but where do we stop the feeling of
