accelerateeu membership talks. migrants entered europe by boat, mostly crossing from turkey to greece by boat. vast majority of them from syria. we have correspondents covering developments from all the countries directly involved, jonah hull is in brussels where the eu summit is taking place. mohammed jamjoom in ismir, the main departure point of migrants from turkey to europe, e, and let's first speak to jonah who has been covering that summit in brussels. jonah, what do we know about these negotiations, are they close to a deal? >> reporter: we don't know how close they may be, maryam. they are studying the proposals put forward earlier in the evening by turkey.

the baseline of these proposals is something they thought they already had a deal all sewed up on. turkey agreeing to take back all illegals, via the crossing from turkey to greece, including syrian refugees and begin to repatriate those among them who have no further reason to stay. but turkey of course has come here and taken the opportunity opush the price up. as you mentioned, they are asking for another 3.3 billion, plus visa access for turkish citizens wanting to come to europe and vastly sped up the acceleration plan. one for one plan in which the eu would agree to take one syrian refugee from a camp in turkey for every one syrian refugee that turkey takes back from greece. that is proposal at this stage.

we know from eu unnamed representatives, says it is a credible one but not one easy to pass. don't forget, we've got to get 28 nations to unanimously agree to it. one quote from an unnamed eu official, saying there are clarifications needed, we will work on it in the coming days. other people have different views, a spokeman for jean claude juncker saying, we may yet have a decision tonight, who knows. >> ankara seems to have the upper hand if these talks jonah. how does the majority feel about the terms they're asking for? >> well, ankara certainly does appear to be the upper hand and that is what appears to have been the calculation coming into the summit, to try to push for as much as they can get. simply because it was clear,

made clear, very publicly clear, that the eu was pinning practically all of its hopes for the solution of this migrant crisis on turkey's cooperation. so they've come and raved the re price. there is opposition by some to this solution, not always the most palatable bed fellow, turkey, been in the press for all the wrong reasons, having shut down the country's biggest newspaper, and victor orban has vetoed the resettlement plan, he doesn't want to see the resettlement plans, and matte offerings renzi says we don't want the plan unless it contains

specific references to resettlement. >> jonah hull, thank you. mohammed jamjoom has expedient day in the turkish coastal city of ismir. >> reporter: even though they do get these promises, even if they do get this extra money it is still going to be very difficult to staunch the tide of refugees who try to cross into greece from turkey. where we are standing every day hundreds if not thousands cross in these rickety makeshift boats. they go about 15 kilometers behind us about a half hour boat ride from here. it's been extremely tough for turkey to stop these crossings. there has been a thriving smuggling market going on. in order to lessen the number of

crossings per day you're going to have to see much more patrol by the turkish coast guard and gendarmery here. over the weekend they said they had stopped two smugglers from crossing, 120 syrians but that's a drop in the bucket. that's a tiny number considering the thousands that cross every day. >> more than 30,000 refugees are currently trapped in greece, nervously awaiting the outcome of the summit. >> translator: we are expecting the best in that they open the instigate and let all these people in because people are really tired. tired. some people got sick, and children, and some don't go back because of the name of their cities. >> we hop the end of this ridiculous situation. some people yesterday had a

fight over wood. look, it hit me in the face, a fight over wood! >> the crossing at macedonia, a major humanitarian crisis is unfolding made worse because of the weather. hoda abdel hamid is there. >> reporter: there is miserable weather that probably would reflect the miserable mood among the nearly 14,000 people who are stranded here, some as long as two to three weeks. i'm going to show you here behind me now, raining quite heavily, we've heard some thunder. people are trying to cover their tents. some of these are summer tents. rain seeps in all the time. people have asked us, do you have news from brussels, is there any outcome yet, have we heard anything? people are petrified that they will be sent back to turkey. so anyone is coming to ask whether the restrictions at the moment at the b macedonian bord,

all questions that go unanswered for at the moment while the living conditions are becoming worse and worse. >> in northern france hundreds of refugees are moving into a new camp. it proposals better conditions for those -- it promise he better conditions for those who have nowhere ogo. from outside dunkirk jacky rowland reports. >> all day, there's a queue waiting to board the buses. a short journey for what they hope will be a better life. and it could hardly be worse than how they've been living until now. tents and sheets of plastic sinking into the mud on this scrap of waste land. the local mayor has played a key

role froms cuing from the conditions. >> like it or not, these conditions are here. they have been rescue rest prevd from going to england. they have to have somewhere to live. >> this is their influence home. a collection of wooden house he. where the state has failed to act the voluntary sector has taken the initiative. access to this camp is based purely on need. msf says it's not imposing any controls or restrictions who can take shelter here. that's in big contrast to a container park where refugees have to register their palm print the they want to get access. the fact that there is not an official camp has made people more confident about moving in but aid workers reject the idea that providing decent living

conditions will attract more refugees. >> translator: this scamp not a magnet. that's -- this camp is not a magnet. that's what some people are afraid of. they're fleeing persecution. >> the authorities are expected to start clearing out the old camp on thursday. by then the vast majority of refugees should be safely installed here. avoiding the kinds of confrontations witness heined in calais. jacky rowland, al jazeera, san francisco. more to come for you on the newshour. palestinian teachers demanding a pay rise refuse to back down despite leaving a million students out of school for a month. two years after mh 370 disappeared, 12 families file a lawsuit in beijing. >> something about 18 years. 18 is a good number.

>> peyton manning end his illustrious career at the top of american football. that story a bit later. now the u.s. military says it's killed more than 150 al shabaab fighters in an air strike in somalia. somali government officials say the number was 27. the pentagon says it attacked a training camp used by the armed group 190 kilometers north of the capital mogadishu on saturday. the attack was done with a combined fighter jets and drones. >> forces in somalia, their removal, the removal of those terrorist fighters degrades al shabaab's ability to meet the group's objectives in somalia including recruiting new members, establishing influence

bases and planning attacks on u.s. and amazon forces. >> mark kimmit joins me. can you give me a background ton discrepancies in the death toll, u.s. saying 150 killed but the somalis putting that figure at 27? >> well, i think there is a little doubt that the united states had eyes on the target, had pretty good idea how many people were on the ground just simply by the intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance that's necessary before you can conduct one of these missions. that said, it could very well be that the somali authorities were able to get out to the camp, but i doubt that. so i would say the number is probably closer to 150. because of the actual eyes that they had before and after the

strike, versus an announcement that came out of the government. >> how would the decision to target this particular camp have come about? >> to conduct a drone strike takes a number of layers of authorities and approvals. in this case, they were very clear that there was an imminent risk to the amasom and the u.s. forces in there. so that probably accelerated the decision making process. on the ground, the intelligence indicated they were going to attack. very quickly that information would have gone up to the highest levels of government. a quick decision would have been made to shift simpler forces over that area and the decision was made by probably people on the ground. >> can you give me your assessment of the effectiveness of drone strikes? we've seen that al shabaab they

have suffered, they lost one of their leaders in 2014. nevertheless it hasn't affecttheir capacity to carry out major attacks, including one a week ago in the somali city of bedoa. >> sure. there's great trougtrophy goingg on, this allows us to attack leadership targets that will eventually call the downfall of these organization he. on the other hand, some would say that there's very little evidence that cutting off the head of the snake causes the collapse of these organizations that in fact they are able to replicate leaders very, very quick and replace them. and so in fact, the efficiency of these drone strikes doesn't really bear out in the long run. >> thank you very much for sharing your thoughts for us.

brigadier general mark kimmit. >> sure. >> 53 people are dead after a gun battle between an armed group and security forces in the border town of ben gardan. nazanine mushar moshiri joins ua little bit later but here is her report. >> the people of ben garzan woke up to this, the sound of heavy gun fire. the attacks were coordinated on the national army and security forces. some local people report seeing dozens of force he on the streets. this man whom they accuse of firing a rocket-propelled grenade at the police station. this was one of the targets

security forces have tortured here in the town of ben gardan. what this slows is there's a well armed group operating in this area capable of hitting strategic targets. some people called ben gardan as the world west. its markets and shops now closed. tunisians have traveled for here to site for groups like i.s.i.l. many people feel that i.s.i.l. many responsible for what happened. >> they are dirt. we are not afraid of them. all the people of ben gardan is in solidarity with the government. we hate them. they don't represent us. they don't represent tunisia. >> translator: of course i'm atrade. we're all atrade in ben gardan because it is the first time that something like this has happened. >> reporter: one possible reason for this attack is

revenge for a recent u.s. air strike on an i.s.i.l. attack on sobrata in western libya. it is felt the strike hatched with the help of tunisian intelligence. last week a dozen fighters crossed the border close to this location attacking security forces but this sometime it was a much larger group. >> translator: this is an unprecedented attack planned and organized and whose goal is probably to take control of this area and to announce a new emirate. >> the teurn tunisian governmend stop arms fighters from coming in. tunisia clearly needs brert enforcement. it is already within tunisia

itself. >> nazanine joins us, tell us about the significance of the attack today. >> reporter: well, it's night now in ben garzan and we understand the situation is calm. but there are stillful fighters who took part in the attack, who are -- whereabouts are unknown. and we understand that a warehouse storing weapons was discovered by security forces, weapons including mortars, rpgs and also heavy machine guns. so you can see the task ahead for security forces not only to track down these armed forces who are in and around the area but also the fact that there are just so many weapons still in ben gardan. >> nazanine, what more can you tell us about reaction from the

government, obviously, the situation in libya has been volatile for a while now. but they will now have to look at taking measures to presumably try and secure that border. is. >> i think the question everybody was asking was what was behind this attack, it was on a scale a size that tunisia has rarely seen. so many fighters hitting ben garzin, security forces barracks statement. we heard from the president be

esepsi, that really that does seem to be a futile exercise because it's clear that fighters and weapons are still able to infiltrate the border. i think what a lot of people here want to see is better security in ben garzan. one of the issues that needs to be be confronted is the issue of corruption. nothing has been done about it. also important is to deal with the root causes of why so many young tunisians are going to fight for groups like i.s.i.l. in iraq and syria. what are the root causes? a lot of people want to know why these things are not being dealt with. >> thank you very much, naz neee

moshiri in ben gardan. our diplomatic editor james bays reports from libya. >> the cessation of hostilities of well over a week has significantly reduced the level of violence. but it is very fragile with all sides reporting violence. this was a result of an air strike by the government on idlib with at least ten people reported dead. in aleppo this was where a building was destroyed by shelling. here local people said opposition forces were to blame for death of at least 13 people. in a local clinic two of the women badly injured in the attack and it was the suffering of syrian women that was highlighted by the u.n. envoy staffan de mistura. he record he a message. >> i met many syrian women

inside and outside syria and i was able to see their eyes and how they were able to behave during this terrible five years of conflict how enormous has been their sufferance and their dignity. >> the stalled talks were supposed to resume this wednesday, however that is in doubt. the head of the negotiating committee, riad hijab, says that right now they are not ready to return to geneva, he says there have been too many violations in the cessation of hostilities. there are areas that have not received humanitarian aid and they want to see the release of detainees. everyone knows there's a risk in further delay outmore violations of the cessation of hostilities could derail this entire process. james bays, al jazeera at the

united nations in geneva. >> a group affiliated with pakistan's taliban says it carried out a suicide bomb attack which killed at least 13 people including children. police say the suicide bomb are had explosives strapped to his chest and debt natalthem at the court building in the town of shopkada. the faction says it was in retaliation for the execution last week of a man convicted of killing a provincial governor. kamal hyder in islamabad has more. >> the attacker tried enter the premises of the court, however he was stopped by policemen. just 29 kilometers from the city of peshawar. extensive antitaliban operation, a splinter group took

responsibility for the attack saying this was a revenge attack for the killing of a police commander, mr. kadri, who had skilled a governor of the punjab, the responsibility now being taken by that group and of course, this is not the first time that it has been targeted because of its proximity to aman. deadly attacks have also been carried out against police fought in that city. >> thousands of palestinian teachers have held a sit in near the prime minister's office in ramallah. it's left a million students out of school across the occupied west bank. nadim baba was at the protest. >> reporter: well a big crowd of palestinian teachers did manage to gather here in the center of ramallah, and that is despite the fact that many were turned back at check points in

different areas of west bank by security forces. the teachers are angry because they say they haven't been given a pay raise for years. some are getting by or trying to get by on just $500 u.s. a month. they have second jobs to meet and some say they have to rely on charity handouts. >> translator: if my two girls relied on me, they would hardly get any new clothes. but they rely on neighbors' hand me downs. that's the definition of bitterness. >> a temporary committee representing the striking teachers and politicians but be crucially, the government wasn't involved. it says it will only deal with the official teachers union brut many of thbutmany of the strikes reject that union saying it's far too close to the palestinian authority. the head of the union has accused some of these mobilizing these protests of being

for an additional $3.3 billion on top of the 3.3 billion already offered. u.s. claims to have killed 150 al shabaab fighters, however, somalia says the number killed is 27. gun battle between the armed group and security forces in the tunisian town of ben gardan. >> those talks in brussels are continued right now aimed add easing the european union refugee process. i'm joined by deputy european director at amnesty international. thank you for coming. europe and turkey are engaged in talks, returning refugees there europe from greece back to

turkey. can a plan like that work? war the obstacles legally and be logistically? >> it's the worst kind of horse trading. we have the european union, showing how desperate it is to look outward instead of within i civility. on the other hand, we have turkey who have shot refugees on the syrian border, pushed back refugees in addition to the domestic situation going on. to seek asylum and be refuge that they currently need. >> the current system of open borders they say is simply not set up to deal with a crisis like this. how do you separate those

refugees and migrants that perhaps do have the right to claim asylum from those who do not. how does this system need to change and adapt? >> there are quite a few things that can be done be straightforwardly. every single person who comes to europe has the ripe to claim asylum. that means you have to have better procedures and they need to be spread out. we need to seek safer routes into europe. it is so straightforward in a way yet so impossible for european leaders to come to agreement through. for example, this entire balkans route wouldn't exist if you had a sufficient number of resettlement places in europe and other ways of getting to europe without having to go vie dangerous roots and relying on smugglers. but there's also a question of the dublin system and disub lynn

reforms. the rule thadublin reforms. >> are you saying that needs to go? >> it needs to change, needs to shift. this is actually manageable but not manageable for one or two countries. this needs to be shared by the entire european continent so that's the shift we're going to have to see. turkey is not going to solve the crisis for europe. it will have to ham in europe as well. >> looking in the medium to long term future you have the refugees that are already here but of course one of the big drivers behind this summit in brussels is to stop more refugees from coming over. this is a big concern for europe right now, securing their external borders. so what sort of solution needs to be -- because it appears that ankara has very much the upper hand on that front. how does that side of it need to be managed?

>> the reality is turkey is hosting millions of refugees, so much more than one country in europe has. the argument that europe should take on more, not all down to turkey, but turkey using its leverage and position to get as much out of this as humanly possible and we're seriously worried that the rights of the refugees are going to be compromised. the reality is that turkey will not be ail to on its own deal with all these refugees. there will be more coming of course, the conflict is not anywhere done. we see more refugees trying to enter turkey although turkey is trying hard to stop it. turkey's resettlement plan, they call it humanitarian relocation from turkey to europe, some countries have proposed this as one of the solutions on the table today. >> thank you very much, thank you, gari van gulick from

bitcoin before the machine is unlocked. it's thought to be the first sferl ransosuccessful ransom wan apple computers. how does this ransomwear work? >> it down loads and encrypts, imagine if i took your laptop now put it into a filing cabinet, locked it and then said if you want your key back, your laptop back give us another $400. and the way that this key range

malware got onto the computer is through downloaded millions of people using rsx. basically what it does is installs and over time it starts to encrypt those files. >> who else are at risk, just mac users? >> this particular variant is be targeted towards mac users, this is the first time i've ever seen ransomware hitting rsx. very well-known ransomwear out there, monetizing the end users and big business too. end users are fined $400 for example, but big businesses are charged tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars to get their computers back.

>> how much is this going to cost apple? because presumably if there's one virus there can be more. >> yes, so apple have actually got a really good approach to reducing the risk infection, that's why we've never really seen this before. they're very quick to respond. they pulled the keys that were used to sign the application, which meant that no one should really be hit by it, only a few cases. six and a half thousand people downloaded the issue, but only one or 2% will be hit by it. with regard to cost to apple i'd say it will be minimal but we'll see a lot more of this time of active happen as apple takes more market share. >> as we were saying one of the great appeals with the apple products or the mac is the fact that it can't be targeted buy virus but no matter how advanced technology becomes, no matter

how efficient the system that the computer you have nothing is ever 100% virus proof is it? >> no, exactly. you think of the money voltaire, that was $2.5 million worth, and the subcriminals could have taken with this one issue. people invest time and energy into being able to infect these systems. >> thank you very much, good to get your thoughts. now two years of erratic weathers, has taken their toll on the tea industry in northwestern india. it's getting hotter and annual rainfall has dropped by 20 centimeters in the past two years. banu badnaga reports. >> acceptable.

dominate our food system like corn, wheat and rice, tea is a perennial crop which means it's grown all year round. you plant the saplings once and you can harvest the leaves for 50 or 60 years. but that makes it especially vulnerable to changes in temperature and water levels. >> a senior neb of the yaint tea board and a fifth generation tea planter says a drought has caused the installation of an irrigation statement. >> you cannot get your -- irrigation system. >> you cannot get your rain from irrigation. only the rain god, when you get rain then you get good harvest. >> reporter: indians consume a third of all the tea produced in

i've loved so deeply. i know that with this, i face consequences. and i've -- i don't want to end my career this way. and i really hope that i will be given another chance to play this game. >> well, steve symon the kerry of the women's tennis association has put out this statement saying, i've i'm very saddened to hear this news about maria. i have always known her to be a woman of great integrity. nevertheless as maria has acknowledged it is every player's responsibility to know what they put in their bodies. well sharapova isn't the only russian facing a drug investigation. the world doping authority iaaf, following accusations of a state sponsored doping program, russia needs to meet a series of

antidoping reforms if it's to be let back into the competition for the summer olympics. coaches banned for doping breaches were still working with russian athletes. >> obviously, the culture of doping of manipulation of cheating in russia, it's not finished yet. and to be honest, i don't understand why people can't assume that you can get rid of a problem of that extent within a few months. it doesn't work. >> well, he dominated the nfl for 18 seasons but peyton manning's career is finally at the end. he confirmed his retirement at the age of 39. manning won two supe super bowln his career, including the final one last month. on a record five occasions was mvp and made $400 million in career earnings.

>> when i look back on my nfl career i'll know without a doubt that i gave everything i had to help my teams walk away with a win. there were other players who were more talented but there was no one who could outprepare me. and because of that, i have no regrets. there's a scripture reading second timothy 4:7, i have fought the good rac fight and finished the race, i have finished my football race and after 18 years it's time. >> well, peyton manning holds so many nfl records it would take a while to go through them all. so here are his biggest hits. in terms of regular season no man has thrown for more yards than peyton, 72,000 yards. more touche touchdown passes thy other players, 539. and he was involved in the most wins that mark of 200 also

includes postseason games so when number 200 would have been that victory in super bowl 50 against carolina. >> he's a trend setter. he's a guy that so many nfl players look up to. you talk about nfl greats at this time. tom brady one of the guys he looked up to throughout his career and continues to look up to. but peyton manning he set the bar. five mvps let you know that he is a quality football player and he will be surely missed. i miss him already because he's my favorite player in the nfl. >> the thought of rugby will make its return to olympics, in rio this year and the country of fiji is their best ever to win a medal. scoring two tries across the length of the field, as they beat australia 21-15. it was fiji's second try and

they beat south africa on the stancheon. fo >> after sitting aboard a horse for the very first time a year ago, she landed her first victory as an amateur jockey, winning by 29 lengths but critics say it's an accident waiting to happen. >> by no means is this an easy decision to make. in fact, i've been complete turmoil over the last few weeks and days, thinking about how i would tackle this situation. i appreciate it's no decision that should be taken lightly. national hunt racing is extremely dangerous sport. there are lots of risks involved but i feel that i'm capable of lining up and being part of that race as an amateur.
