the united nations says it's confirmed more than eight hundred cases of children being used in the fighting in yemen that's according to a report obtained by al jazeera it accuses both hooty rebels and saudi and amorality backed forces of recruiting child soldiers well let's get more from our diplomatic editor james base so what does the report tell us james. well julie this is the report the children an armed conflict report it comes out every single year and it's become something of a political hot potato here at the united nations because the security council mandates the secretary general antonio terra's to come up with this report and the manics at the end which is the black list that names the parties whether they are governments or whether they're non-state actors that have been involved in killing and wounding children and all my list again is the saudi led coalition for
3:02 am
a second year running they lobbied not to be on the list but they are on it again for the second year running they've been named a party that commits grave violations affecting children but for the second year running there is also a caveat in there saying that they put in place measures aimed at improving the protection of children now that's what it said last year and i put this point to the spokesman for the secretary general stefan if they were putting measures in place last year to protect children how did they manage to kill three hundred seventy more children in twenty seventeen what is important for us is for people to people their first state actors non-state actors to engage with the office of ms garba to put in place whatever mitigation measures they can the point of the report is to improve. is to improve the situation and report on it. as honestly as as we can so if you engage with the office you can continue killing
3:03 am
children you're making an unfair and unfair assumption the point is that people need to we need to see people engage engage constructively and show us repeatedly over the repeating period that they have of making an effort to avoid the death of children. well this report which is iran has obtained it is now being distributed to the fifteen members of the un security council it is not public but we expect next month the security council will meet to discuss its contents to space there live with the latest from the u.n. james thank you the fate of more than two hundred thirty migrants and refugees stuck onboard a rescue ship in the mediterranean remains unclear the lifelines been at sea for five days to build its alien lol to refuse to let it access their ports on tuesday the italian prime minister said the ball would be allowed to dock in malta a bit in a tweet the charity says the maltese government is still refusing it access to its
3:04 am
territorial war says the e.u. remains divided over how to deal with the broader migration crisis dominic cade reports. the issue of migration has dominated european debate for many weeks now specifically what to do with those who present themselves seeking asylum in one country and then go on to claim it elsewhere what's happened with the lifeline vessel in the mediterranean is a case in point almost a microcosm for the entire crisis crying of america all the issue is what to do to placate her domestic allies in bavaria whilst also keeping on board the rest of her coalition and trying to find a european solution but here in bavaria border controls are the real question as i've been finding out. on an early summer's day at hurting looks like a picture postcard the town has been a place of pilgrimage for more than five hundred years it's the c.s. use heartland
3:05 am
a formidable conservative election winning party machine for five decades but the recent influx of refugees has changed things the rise of the anti immigrant anti has seen the c.s.u. move further to the right fearful of losing votes in this october's state election you know they get disability and sawdust overall it would be good if there were european solutions however no european solution was achieved in three years and i believe it's important to send a clear signal that we too can reach european measures which are everyday practice in other countries that is code for more of this police controls along the border with austria officially removed more than twenty years ago but temporarily reestablished once the flow of migrants and refugees into germany began growing if the c.s.u. has its way then scenes like these will become commonplace not just in bavaria but also across many of germany's other borders something angular machall and the e.u. institutions strongly oppose because of their commitment to the shang and border
3:06 am
free area of the c.i.s. use proposals don't stop at just policing borders. asylum seekers would be prevented from working and receiving benefits of violent applicants who'd be jailed alongside criminals then deported such moves go way beyond what chancellor merkel has proposed the price for not toppling her coalition in urging many people agree with them they like your typical merkel in bars at the mall now she can't handle it see the other european countries don't want to play along either they have had enough we are a christian country and we want to stay like that in two hundred fifty years you will barely find a german this is a. home of his right to be humane but at some point we have to protect ourselves it doesn't work anymore it's not about racism or was in a phobia some point we have reached the point where we have to say may first our
3:07 am
country then the others at a state wide level there are some voicing opposition to the c.f.c.'s plans the biography of that shop one million one and one adds the bavarian economy and millions of jobs in our companies depend on a united europe with open borders new border controls turnstiles finances and walls simply question our prosperity they question our strength this is a response hole and it also questions the bavarian identity privately some in the c.s.u. like to think that theirs is the most influential party in germany and with their deadline to angle americal drawing ever closer perhaps right now they're the most influential party in europe don it came down to zero in bavaria all we can speak now is image in sudbury the head of the international rescue committee in brussels imaging a very warm welcome to the program imaging we have another two hundred thirty or so migrants currently stranded on the ship and we see well the gentleman there is
3:08 am
saying in germany you know enough with migrants you know coming to our countries and then we have the e.u. again grappling with this problem why is it finding it's so difficult to make progress. well you know i think it's quite ironic that at the moment the e.u. leaders are finding this such a divisive issue and so difficult to come to solutions when right at the point where we see that actually numbers now arriving to europe and through the mediterranean are at their lowest level since twenty thirteen so what we really need politicians to do is to take a step back and to really reach agreement on a fair and efficient system for the processing of migration migrants arriving tea to europe which doesn't leave all the responsibility on our own front line states you know these numbers are quite manageable coming to europe right now we still see that eighty percent of refugees around the world are hosted in developing countries
3:09 am
so if the e.u. can't step up and show that it can actually take its fair share of responsibility within the e.u. then why should we expect other countries around the world to do likewise so image and we've got this idea being proposed of disembarkation platforms is is this any source of pull gress in terms of some sort of attempt to get a system is as you called it. well as i say i think internal a system that would process refugees and asylum seekers inside europe would be the most sensible way forward and currently we see you know we have far too many unanswered questions to be able to to see whether this could be a feasible or acceptable or from a humanitarian perspective to to process a refugee and salim see case outside the e.u. for example on access how do we know who would have access to these centers would
3:10 am
people have to risk their lives to get into boats in order to be rescued before they're able to have their claims processed and secondly legality you know would people still be taken to the nearest safe port in accordance with maritime law what guarantees do we have that they would actually meet the procedural have their procedural fair due process rights are respected if their claims were being processed outside the e.u. finally on conditions i mean we've seen that in a large scale processing centers inside the e.u. for example in the greek islands we've had dangerous and overcrowded centers where it's been very hard for people to ensure humane conditions so what kind of guarantees and confidence can we have that outside the e.u. conditions would be any better an image in is one of the other challenges something that we heard in the report there was a gentleman in it and he said you know it has to be our country first our people
3:11 am
forced me forest and i just wonder with this sense that people are becoming more and more concerned about migration does that make it then harder for politicians to get some sort of a workable solution. as i say i mean i thoroughly understand some of the concerns that politicians are trying to address but i think they also have a responsibility to explain that with a manageable system migrants can also bring a very positive benefits to communities. also works in a number of programs around europe where we are working with migrants and local communities and we see that the benefits that integration come can bring in the way in which migrants can can contribute to local communities you know once people are working at a meeting and together they bring much understand and see that this is a lot more manageable than some people who never actually come into contact with an
3:12 am
asylum seeker in the first place image in sudbury they're head of the international rescue committee in brussels image and thank you. now u.s. officials say parents who enter the country illegally with their children will not face prosecutions of the time being because there's no space to hymes them that process continue over the trumpet ministrations zero tolerance policy on immigration demonstrators say despite an executive order aimed at ending family separation at the border it's still happening then do you elizondo reports from macallan in texas that's near the u.s. border with mexico. standing up against injustice that is why they say they're here protesting outside a detention center holding undocumented migrants when a government bus tries to leave the blockage demanding answers two thousand migrant children still separated from their detained parents inside the bus or some
3:13 am
children a haunting image a reminder they are humans and not numbers and they're the most innocent these are all expressions of. our response our human response the image was taken by leo lopez a doctor from texas who joined the protests to say it was a moving experience was really doesn't do justice to the emotional response of i've seen these kids we've we've heard of we've heard their their situation their story we've read about them but to actually see these children pressed up against the glass. with these kids was expression of emotion as a crisis on the southern border of the u.s. intensifies and government agencies scramble to undo a family separation policy put into place and then reversed by trump protests grow in america vigil at the san diego border a protest at a tent city for migrants near el paso a sit in in seattle and protests in new york and some are trying to take their
3:14 am
message straight to trump well there have been protests in several cities across america they're particularly potent and small and medium sized cities along the border because here it's an issue that's urgent and it's real i think this is an expression of compassion and taking to the streets in the name of justice in the name of these these children is just a silhouette begging so many questions who are they where are they going will they ever see their parents again questions nobody can seem to answer gabriel is on. because texas stay with us on the news hour still ahead. in spain as adults it gives evidence in the first case of the stolen baby scandal illegal logging on a massive scale allegations. being exploited by foreign companies with government complicity. and it's for the third time's a charm for this n.b.a.
