us. most likely to tell us only struct us to stand by because a guard arrived the scene and sometimes we wait for hours basically a transfer for responsibility to leave young course guard. we know that sometimes they will be on course guard and don't have the necessary equipment like life jackets so that. will endangered a lot of people for sure. the tragedy at sea happened as e.u. leaders finally agree on how to deal with the refugees who make it to shore italy had threatened to block any agreement unless it got what it wanted its new populist government has a tough stance on migrant ships it stops three rescue vessels from docking at its ports this month charlie angeles has more from sicily. we're hearing tanya and this is the last ship that brought in rescued migrants two weeks ago since then interior minister matteo salvini has closed italy's ports and at the summit there was no

discussion as to what will happen the next time a european boat carrying rescued migrants is left stranded in the mediterranean instead italy's prime minister just emerged from the summit saying italy is no longer alone he went in threatening to use his veto it if there was not an agreement that suited italy he did and because of that italians believe they got some concessions but nothing will change if we don't play hardball on grey's our voices we never get anything so broad really long. under the new e.u. agreement italy could host voluntarily new migrant centers that would process all arrivals and determine which are genuine refugees and which are illegal migrants to us. this country already has refugee camps the difference is that these arrivals would no longer be subject to the dublin regulations italy would not be responsible for them soley the idea is they could be divided up between other member states but again as no one held that would happen and for italians sharing

the burden is a key issue. italy's been left alone it's true but of course i don't agree on the methods used by our interior minister i do think europe has to be reformed especially because there is no agreement on this issue the agreement also promises to explore the idea of setting up disembarkation platforms in north africa to try and process migrants before they even attempt to the mediterranean crossing but not all italians are convinced that if trying to fix the problem in africa on the spot and trying to help them here it is really difficult war should always be welcomed and not pushed away but pushing away is exactly what italy has done in closing its ports and the new e.u. declaration that asylum seekers landing in italy are actually arriving in europe seems almost redundant. now the free syrian army says a temporary ceasefire is in effect in southern syria the truce comes as the united

nations refugee agency walls the number of displaced people has tripled to one hundred sixty thousand in the past five days it follows intense fighting endeavor in a ten day offensive by government and russian forces at least eighty people were killed in airstrikes on thursday omar karami is on the syrian side of the border with jordan. national and i know how there are more here at the border crossing that many syrian refugees have used in the past to cross from syria into jordan today thousands of civilians mainly women and children again others along this border hoping to be able to cross into jordan. ever caused his highness the king of jordan to give them permission to cross over. these families have nothing left for them but to ask to cross that border to escape death. they've been displaced from areas that have been hit by thousands of airstrikes in the past few days and they're now looking to cross to safety we've witnessed the tragic events the civilians have

been through and their only demand now is to go in the direction of jordan now the area is meant to be part of the escalations only go sheeted by the united states and russia turkey's foreign minister says the two countries have a responsibility to end the fighting with the united states and russia have reached an agreement regarding the area in syria they reach an agreement for deescalation zones and according to the deal opposition forces would be deployed on one side while syrian regime forces would be on the other but the syrian regime forces launched an attack on the other side so who made this agreement with the united states and russia they both have responsibility and this needs to stop a cease fire deal to end south sudan for a half year civil war has come into force president salva kiir the rebel leader right have signed an agreement in sudan's capital khartoum on wednesday now it calls for the opening of corridors for humanitarian aid the release of political prisoners and the forming of a transitional government within four months at least fifty thousand people have

been killed and more than four million displaced since hostilities began in twenty thirteen algis there is hippa morgan has covered the conflict in south sudan extensively she explains the fragility of the current to cease fire agreement. this is not the first ceasefire agreement to be signed since the conflict started in twenty states and this is agreement this is the my i think we meant to be signed and it's not clear yet whether it is going to hold a lot of agreements have been violated nearly every single agreement they've been signed between the two parties and several other factions have been violated sometimes in less than twenty four hours after they were signed so it's not clear yet whether this would. i would actually hold because what both sides said is that they do not want their forces to attack and less attacks and as their attacks are basically in defense and that's what they've been saying all along you will find a cease fire that is signed and then they will one side will come out and say we have been attacked and we fought back in self-defense and the cease fires were late

and so it's not clear if this one is going to hold but people do have cautious optimism that this one would be this could be a little bit different because it has been brokered by sudan not by the regional bloc i get and that it was signed by the two leaders it was signed by the president himself and the leader of the opposition and the representative of the south sudan's opposition alliance so so just because their top figures who have signed the cease fire they're hoping that it might be a bit stronger than the previous cease fires at least two soldiers and a civilian have been killed in a turn call a military base in central mali fighters drove a vehicle rigged with explosives onto the base and opened fire troops two of the attackers were killed the compound houses the headquarters of the g five times falls made up of soldiers from mali the king of france so chad and mauritania it was set up to defeat groups across western africa alex is an assistant research fellow at the africa center for strategic studies she says many groups are

dedicated to securing the so whole region. there are multiple forces that are deployed to each contribute to fighting extremist the first is the french force back on that is deployed in that area and has been deployed in different forms since. the islamist groups tried to take the capital bamako back in late two thousand and twelve another force of course is the un's mission. which has deployed again throughout mali and also has a mandate to help mali security forces fight these groups so there's a multitude of actors there and they all try to work together to defeat these defeat these groups it's not been a week since twelve young footballers and the coach went missing in a cave that subsequently flooded in northern thailand more than a thousand dollars as soldiers and border guards have joined the search a new opening to the underground cave complex was discovered on friday raising

hopes that the boys may still be found alive school hyla has more from chung rai. you can hear the hum of that big diesel generator behind me that orange structure that's good news and we heard that again saturday morning as we climbed up this hill to the mouth of the cave that means that the pumps are working pumping out the water in the mouth of the cave right here we know that navy seal divers are standing by that water gets down to a level that's safe for them to go back in they continue with their exploration going further into the cave and from this side that's one second prong today is exploring hole vertical hole that chimney that was discovered on friday that is the other side of the search and rescue operation that they're focusing today on saturday because there is a better visibility helicopters are going to be able to bring a quickly up to that location up in the hills we know that the chief of the national police here in thailand is already up there orchestrating that part of the search and rescue operation what they're looking to do they have drilling equipment

scanning they want to try to get down into the bottom of that. that tunnel well that chimney to see if it reaches into the cave complex if it does they can drop equipment they can drop supplies and then hopefully climbers so that's the two focuses today again still no definitive proof definitive evidence any clues to where these boys in the coach might be but at least on these two fronts because the weather is holding out that they're able to push forward well still ahead here on al-jazeera we look at who's taking care of the children as uganda shuts down hundreds of all snitches. mexicans prepared to go to the polls in a vote of the working class are expected to be the king to make could still stay with us here on all just. how.
