more complicated cleanup of its reputation it's into reckless accused of colluding to smuggle people to europe after it refused to hand over two hundred thirty three rescued refugees to libyan authorities we picked up them on the twenty first of two in. about eighteen and twenty two miles. from the libyan coast so in international waters off the. coast guard boat approached us and told us to hand out the migrants to them they wanted to bring back some migrants to libya where they put to jail so we said well there's no way for us to hand outs of migrants. refused to the life line a safe port in italy preferring to send refugees to camps in libya what to do is illegal so we think that italian is breaking international law because libya is not safe and people are crowded in in such prisons and.

face monitress and say i and tortured and raped so we are sure that this is not a solution and should stop very very soon the plight of the lifeline embodies the broader european debate about whether to rescue refugees at sea and bring them to say forts in the european union or ship them to camps in so-called safe countries stablished humanitarian practice is that of bringing them to europe but there is disagreement on put in sharing and a growing chorus of hardliners supports outsourcing humanitarianism to others. the lifelines refugees at this processing center in walesa lucky to have their asylum interviews in europe from their balconies they can see the freedom little weights them unemployment television and dominoes in this ship break because it is safe but

the life and some european attitudes are hardening against free lance search and rescuers who would help bring others here malta's prime minister a liberal compared to some e.u. leaders holds this against them the captain of the said this so who went against international rules and ignored directions being given by the italian authorities who were coordinating the rescue it appears that european search and rescue has become a political not a humanitarian act jumpstart al-jazeera valetta. joining us on skype from milan is . a village that is he is a fellow at the migration program at the italian institute for international political studies we appreciate your time very much so but there's a couple of different things that are going on here there's the pushback against the migrants in italy and things like refusing to take in the rescue ship and then there is the breakdown of these camps where the roma live but technically there are two separate issues but is the sentiment behind these actions similar. you

know saying no actions are a way to score cheap political points by a heart going to party and that is what the folks in rome are interesting that it's almost like a nonexistent problem in italy. who live in camps are like people whether a minority group of people is like ninety percent of them why are you need to lead leave outside camps and marius and this way clearly we need to mean it's there is probably sick accomplishing he's a left of promises but at the same time he's provoking these climate of europe with a population that's exactly the way. things are going in that. white house is supposed to play out what what are the details of you know how these camps are going to be broken gal where these people are going to go usually when you don't can't it happened twenty years ago but a previous administration says right when you say should be in the same league not

only already it tended to do a census before and we noticed that on the terms of the wound camps and they did just better some caps but clearly they tried to resettle people in urban areas and give them like a daughter but once these ends unless the kind of integrated we did believe in market some of them against anything comes around the cities so that these you know the problem that we curse but it seems and we really have to remember that these of mine a minority temperament in italy the only zero point three percent of its own population . is there any pushback against the tail solving for her and for these actions. well i actually think you do isn't a public company usually pretty much in the direction of much as civilian right now about eighty percent of them did agree on to close down the boards on the site so do not delete and other parties within the government even the five star movement

in more of a centrist movement agreed overwhelmingly to close down the ports. search and rescue ships so i mean right now usually find me to do not to believe narrative is actually having an effect on people and we see movies goes once the promise is that being done right now might come might come down to look at whether the promises that absolutely will have to say about comes out of this this agreement tayo thank you very much thank you the president of the international committee of the red cross is preparing to hold a major news conference on the broad hensher crisis peter maher is visiting me in mar where he has met the de facto leader out on sochi seven hundred thousand head to have fled the country since a massive military crackdown targeted them last august most are living in makeshift camps in neighboring bangladesh earlier peter marshall al jazeera the conditions are not yet in place to allow our attention to safely return home. for the i.c.r.c.

this is still and is at the present moment first and foremost an emergency operation a lot of people have been affected from all the communities and we need also to have even stronger support and facilities from all the authorities in myanmar to be able to operate and to expand our operations the reconsolidation of the communities the bringing back of minimal safety and security for people with is a tall order in the. the work of many of the actors of many of the communities as well so we are probably looking at the long term and medium term perspective i don't think that we have yet conditions conducive to large scale return we'll need security arrangements which are embraced by the communities

and this is again a political task of this key stakeholders in in me and mar. we certainly appreciate the support that we have for our humanitarian work and we certainly would appreciate if others would join us in a few because again we do believe that this is still an emergency operation. a lot of food medical assistance basic assistance is needed for the population stows who are there into those who eventually will come home and all of next week out of syria will be reporting on the crisis from bangladesh for our team of a visiting the camps and meeting those affected by what the united nations has called a textbook case of ethnic cleansing. state department has released its annual people trafficking report it's warned about the dangers of forcibly separating children from their families which puts it at odds with president trump's migrants operation

a result. some of the burmese military also recruited child soldiers and subjected adults and children from at the minority groups to forced labor one of the other issues that is highlighted in this report is the vulnerability of children who were forcibly separated from their talents u.s. officials here though did not want to address that matter as it relates to the ongoing controversy on the us mexico border however the report does evaluate the u.s. military's to protect people from vulnerable actions such as forced labor or such work and might well turn up in next year's report however for now state department officials are referring all of these sorts of questions to other agencies million really homeland security and health and human services claim ahead of the news hour including four years after i solicit faded in the iraqi city of mosul reminders of the group's ruler still everywhere last. mix kerry's presidential front runner is

rescue operations now for the first time in days the generators are running and the pumps are working i don't know if the search also continues in the hills and jungle above the cave complex fissures and chimneys or downward tunnels are being explored and surveyed workers looking for any way to get into the cave beyond the flooded sections to look for the boys or any sign or clue of where they might be. with water again draining from the large mouth of the cave there's hope that the divers can again continue with their push farther into the dark and muddy labyrinth scott either al-jazeera chiang rai. a man who killed five people at a newspaper office in the u.s. state of maryland has been charged with murder and best gator say his specifically targeted journalists in the city of annapolis caster reports police say the shooting that left five people dead on thursday was a targeted attack on a local newspaper the capital gazette journalist caught in the violence described

the scene as a war zone with one crime reporter tweeting there is nothing more terrifying than hearing multiple people get shot while you're under your desk and then hear the gunman reload police say a lone suspect was responsible they captured him inside the newspaper office and have searched his home there was no gunfire exchanged between officers and the suspect since we were able to get here very quickly but just something for you guys to get to know. you know we have a unified training on how to respond active shooters and that's would be one of the major things that made this a huge success police say the suspect is linked to a social media account that has made threats to the newspaper staff as recently as the day of the attack they say he also deployed a smoke canister to create confusion as he forced his way into the building a sign that this attack was meticulously planned this person was prepared today to come in this person was prepared to shoot people his

a result of the blockade imposed by the u.a.e. and three other countries last year qatar says companies and individuals have been denied access to education medicine and justice if barker joins us live now from the hague so what are you been hearing this morning a house has been playing out in a. well a very very dense legal debate is underway at the moment katz on the u.a.e. do not see eye to eye over whether the highest court the i.c.j. should have the jurisdiction to actually carry on with this case just explain very simply the u.a.e. is accused of violating the international convention on the elimination of all forms of racial discrimination the u.a.e. is a key signatory of that nine hundred sixty five convention and when there are accusations of violating the convention there's a protocol to follow that includes firstly negotiating between two opposing sides of two opposing countries referring

a complaint to the committee in charge of that convention and then very finally referring the case here to the i.c.j. . argues that it's done all of that that it's attempted to reach out to the u.a.e. and hold direct negotiations with them but the u.a.e. simply ignore them also that these different stages can happen similar tameness least there's no problem in bringing the case here to the i.c.j. the u.a.e. debates saying that the right protocol hasn't been followed that all prior forms of arbitration haven't been fulfilled in order to be able to justify this move here sounds like a very dry legal language very dry legal process but it's very very important precisely because the court at the end of all of this the end of these three days of hearings here will now decide whether or not it can process the case if it can it will then set a timetable for further hearings later down the line a bit later on in the afternoon we're going to hear from the u.a.e. there's a break of several hours now to hear exactly what their side of the argument is
