necessary prime minister netanyahu saying that israel will react to any swedes to its sovereignty the israeli military has reinforced troops in this area in the last few days reinforcements for the two hundred tents division we understand of course this area is very sensitive it having been occupied by israel in one thousand nine hundred sixty seven the big concern for israel here is one of security of special concern is the the presence of iranian forces so close to its bulldoze we understood we know that in may israel struck using as strikes a number of iranian military installations inside syria so there are huge concerns with respect to security here for israel as this crisis continues and as the fighting goes on in this area i think it's fairly safe to say that we can expect to see even more people coming to these camps along this border claim ahead of the news our hand cleaning. up. a show of support in

poland after a controversial law it's charges out of your. term the chancellor urges support for a new migration policy that could make or break her government plus i'm on the richardson of the world cup in russia finding out why so many chinese fans their hands economic team titles to qualify. rescuers are building up the strength of young footballers trapped in a cave in thailand if they work out how to get them out one option is giving the twelve boys and their coach a crash course in how to scheme a tie that heiler has more from shanghai. new video of the stranded thirteen shows a navy seal emblem drawn on the cave ledge where the teenagers assault safety eleven days ago the words say thirteen lives referring to the name of their youth

football club meaning wild boar personnel from the navy seals are staying with the boys at all times who are reported to be in good health after treatment for minor injuries rescuers are under intense pressure to get the twelve boys and their coach out quickly there has been a pause in the monsoon season rain but it's expected to start falling again in the next few days keeping water levels in the cave system down is critical for the rescue one option is to train them on the basics of scuba diving. something one diving expert at the cave thinks will work if they use a full face mask. and it won't take long it is basically just a cave fix a saw as you do it them sitting on the sand you put the mosque on they get a feel for it they get an understanding. use a through water column so they understand that they have a communication they can talk to the diver who guides somalia and if they see any problem they can calm him down the governor of chiang rai province says that the

trapped thirteen might not all come out at the same time they were evaluate each one and bring them out only when they're ready the u.s. is one of at least six countries assisting the rescue will getting them out is the goal providing food and supplies is critical the assistance portion in the resupply and able to provide supplies to the shoulder and you know it's a very very relevant to the operations that are being conducted and how we're able to support our thai partners in anticipation of that moment everyone at the cave entrance is waiting for rehearsals are being held and when it's not a thai soldier playing a role it's a member of the teenager's mood paul football club. joins us now from the site and chiang rai so scott obviously everyone would like these young men and their coach out as soon as possible but you know rushing in as the last thing anyone wants to do and there's such a huge coronated effort going on to get this under way tell us what's happening.

absolutely yeah i know one thing to also really kind of underline you talk about you know scuba training these kids and their coach you know that's going to take a little bit of time you know we spared from that expert and he says it can be done relatively quickly particularly with these awful face masks but one thing we really need to under understand is that you know this is a multistage i guess if you will you know the there are four to five kilometers in in the safe area beyond fata a beach area four to five kilometers and it's not just all underwater. or it's not just submerged up to their chest it is very ng degrees of of difficulty if you will you know there's a chamber chamber three which is the first biggest big chamber on the way and that they might have to make their way there stay a little bit and maybe even for a couple of hours maybe even for a couple of days so when they do finally bring out this these kids and their coach again as we heard from the governor it's not going to happen all at once they're not all going to come out and it's also going to be in stages so it's going to be a very long process when that does happen but there was there was

a hard deadline for that and that is because on sunday in just three days time the weather forecast is supposed to go back into the traditional monsoon rain right now it's sunny yesterday was quite sunny as well so we've been lucky for the last few days but that's going to end soon you know sunday if you look at the graph of the forecast sunday is supposed to be a spike back up with precipitation so even though this is a very dangerous operation even though it has to be planned out properly they really need to get it going because the concern is once these rains start again those stages that i was talking about will be completely erased or completely altered so that means anything they're planning right now with the the exit for these thirteen could be completely changed because of the rainfall submerging some more sections of cape that aren't submerged right now so a very very tricky operation going on right now but again it's has to go as quickly as possible i hide my life and chiang rai thank you. poland's prime minister

is defending a new law that forces supreme court judges to retire at the age of sixty five he says the country has the right to decide its own legal system european union though is warning that the move will undermine the judiciary david schaper reports from warsaw. a drumbeat of defiance was sounding as thousands of protesters composed on the supreme court it was a boisterous reception for the former chief justice. who returned her desk on the first day of her in first fertile. don't have almost lost in the crowd she declared she was determined to defend the legal order of the country not to play politics but to bear witness to the truth but far removed from the sounds of the protest the ministry of justice was turning a deaf ear to her claims of a vacancy and told the building of a can be there are very good they can be there as guests but vacant

workers judges because. that uncompromising line was repeated by poland's prime minister when he addressed members of the european parliament in strasbourg eucharistic right each state has the right to shave their legal system according to their own traditions but with the european commission bringing legal proceedings which could land poland in the dock of the european court of justice the e.c. j many experts are predicting a compromise so i am expecting the polish government to show the respect of the rupee and union as well and to at least freeze the law not to appoint new judges to allow them. to decide on this issue at the moment the highest court in the land appears to be in a state of the eagle limbo with neither side showing any signs of backing down. once again protesters are gathering outside the supreme court determined to defend

the country's constitution and limit the growing powers of the government david chaytor al-jazeera was. a private humanitarian rescue ship has docked in barcelona in spain after being refused entry to italy and malta. belongs to the proactive open arms charity rescued sixty people from a river boat off the coast of libya on saturday. private rescue boat operators of encouraging human traffickers to take refugees across the mediterranean from africa . so it's enough that we managed to rescue sixty people on fortunately since we left the area i think if you haven't lost count almost five hundred people have died in the last four days these demonstrates that what's happening is viable the closing of the ports here it's only a multi if they get ships like those out of the way as evidently italy and other european countries want what happens is that people will die. this year migration continues to cause problems for the german chancellor angela merkel has urged

parliament to support her new migration policy follows a compromise deal with her conservative coalition partners the christian social union to limit the number of asylum seeker arrivals are also needs the backing of her other coalition partner of the s.p.d. and the european union. it is my firm conviction and the firm conviction of many others that the handling of this migration issue will decide whether europe will enjoy because it's such a moving issue it's important that we come to this agreement time and again has more from berlin. of this weekend poem and on wednesday anger of america went on german television and in an interview she gave more detail about the sort of shape the plans for migration detention centers might take the crux of this is establishing way in the the person concerned that the migrant the person being detained first claimed asylum your fortunes here in germany would have forty eight

hours to hold that person and if they can't establish which country to send that person back to you in that period of time that the sunni will then be sent to a place where they can and not could be held against their will separately to that we received information that suggests that mr minister is a hole for from the christine social union he's talking about three centers that are already federal police headquarters or bases where these detainees might temporarily be held remember all of this will be contingent on getting support from the social democrats who are the main partners to angela merkel's christian democrats in the grand coalition so the meeting on thursday where all this will be thrashed out will be pivotal in establishing whether this compromise solution between the two conservative parties in the coalition will actually then go on to be a settled policy of the grahams coalition extra police have been sent to a city in western france after a fatal polish police shooting of a driver led to

that's according to opposition media strikes escalated after ceasefire talks with rebels protel three hundred thirty thousand people have fled their homes since the offensive began more than two weeks ago. time is running out to save the great barrier reef that is the warning promotes julius climate council its latest report says coral bleaching could happen every two years by two thousand and thirty four due to rising say temperatures the council says the rate of bleaching will continuously set back the long term recovery of the reef global warming is lead to more frequent and longer heat waves in the world's oceans he called to say damage to the reef may be irreversible they have noticed a drop in the diversity of fish species and the number of young fish settling on the reef martin rice is acting chief executive at a climate council he joins us now from south wales australia me appreciate it very much so how much quicker is this bleaching happening the rate

so. basically a summary of. the climate science community and it's really quite worrying before proceeding and when we look back at the one nine hundred eighty s. we've seen a turn of coral bleaching it pretty twenty years because if it changes i'm an intensification of climate change you warming at sea surface temperatures we're seeing that return every six years now so when we look at the great barrier reef it's future unless we urgently. use a greenhouse gas pollution levels then we could actually see a turn of leeching of the two years that's a face to the going to sign or. a new wardrobe reset larch well so what is when we say bleaching what actually happens. so what

happens is when it. is. warming oceans are releasing. whole us and certain temperature increases and stresses the coal and new coral reliance on his time he wants. and also the vibrant colors of the coral reefs you know when they're under heat stress they release this algae and what happens then. we get this late point scale to look and we see the research really vulnerable to disease and also mortality and. speak. on looking at the twenty sixteen. and we saw thirty percent mortality across the great barrier reef sector or we've also in the

climate science community we've been able to. say with confidence that. kirk has made one hundred seventy five times more likely because i mean to you. and the environmental effects of this what is the economic impact of not doing something about this. huge so five hundred million people openly rely on the reefs for their. lives it's an astounding one trillion dollar value. of the great barrier reef. and this sixty four thousand people lie on the reef for their livelihood boots and employment and it's also worth an estimated six point five billion a security dollars annually so we're talking huge numbers here. ok

martin reiss. hopefully we can all do something about that thank you very much for joining us mr wright appreciate it. at least fifteen people have died after two days of monsoon rain in the pakistani city of lahore it is the heaviest rain there in nearly forty years. the electrocution are homes caving in and the rain is expected to continue the smog. malaysia's former prime minister has vowed to clear his name on corruption charges it has denied counts related to a state fund set up during his ten years in office or its lawyer of course in kuala lumpur. not arrived at the fall of the poor high court to want to charges of corruption at privet open to trust which carry a maximum twenty year prison sentence i. cite his supporters mostly from the political party who once led chang to three dodgy. months he's the former prime

can make unlimited political contributions but the court has limited the sources of union contributions nevertheless these teachers seem enthusiastic determined to make a difference. the high court ruling will not affect states like florida with so-called right to work laws that already bar nonunion workers from paying dues but it does affect public union workers and twenty two other states that don't it is going to make us be more strategic and how and what races we can go. don't waste races we can't the unions president says republican backers will not stop them from moving ahead what they've used the supreme court decision to do is to encourage members to drop your membership knowing that if enough members drop their membership that our union disappear that is. union teachers say that even with less money they plan to forge ahead with more
