borne disease after sudan's worst flooding in a century. and the destruction of an aboriginal heritage site in australia forces the resignation of the head of one of the world's biggest mining companies. hello everyone our top story hundreds of refugees on the greek island of less boss are demanding to be allowed to leave and go to the mainland. the police had arrived earlier on friday as tensions heightened with the families to spend yet another night without shelter and little food after fire destroyed europe's largest refugee camp the government will not allow them on to the mainland and is working to house them in tents or on board chartered ships earlier 10 e.u.
5:02 pm
countries did agree to take in 400 unaccompanied minors from the morea camp germany and france say they'll take in most of them john psaropoulos our correspondent who's there john how close are these people to not spending another night outdoors with no shelter and little food. well unfortunately the further away than they would have been had the initiative been left to the greek government which has construction machinery parks just a few 100 yards yards down the road to my left waiting to come through a police roadblock that is directly behind me and moved to a municipal refugee camp which is a little further up the road there so the landscape some areas surrounding it and to extend it with me tents and place as many people as possible in those temporary shelters but unfortunately the refugees do not think that is
5:03 pm
a good solution until a few moments ago a couple of 1000 of them were demonstrating loudly on the street behind me to minding to go to the mainland to go to europe to continue with their lives to stop being in limbo a large banner that they held said we need peace and freedom loria kills all lives what we can show you now though for the 1st time in the breeze in recent days the police has allowed us through this road block to show you the street where people have been sleeping for the past 3 nights if my cameraman cares to zoom in a bit a little and some of these makeshift shelters you can see that people have moved to materials from moria camp to this highway that runs from italy the town up to moria can't they are however trapped here they aren't being allowed to move either to one or the other side of this highway there are there are roadblocks on either and
5:04 pm
police are determined to prevent them from spreading out and possibly trying to get into town board ferries illegally to go to athens or try to get off the island in any other way one of the reasons they're doing it is that these people's asylum applications haven't been fully adjudicated they need to be finished here the us. the reason is that there is a fear of spread of corona virus because less versed island is now one of the vectors of this disease and there are very strict orders. on how people comport themselves in public with masks and keeping distances from each other and they are doing a priest levels of testing the public health organization in order to prevent this disease from spreading out of control interesting you're talking about how corona virus spreads and you know what happens with people who are on ships because that's one of the truths of the spread of covert 19 john i mean if they're going to put
5:05 pm
these refugees on ships that puts them into this kind of a floating petri dish potentially if they get infection in there it will stay there and it will spread. we don't know how that's going to be handled we know that this passenger ship has arrived parked on the far side of the island from us we believe that authorities intend to start moving vulnerable refugees i.e. small children families with small children as quickly as possible there we don't know if they're going to be tested before they are allowed to board the ship or if they're going to be tested while they're on board but what you what you say is definitely a risk because of the ventilation systems that ships use the disease can spread very quickly inside them so we haven't yet heard from all sources on how they'll handle that but what we do know is that that is only one of several solutions being
5:06 pm
offered the other of course is the extension of the tent city here at this municipal refugee camp and the 3rd solution may be putting people on the transport ships which basically massive floating garages they're not artificially ventilated in any way and we've been told to expect 2 of those ships to arrive in less force as well but in the meantime. the different clashing political agendas on the island the refugees who want to leave the island is who want to prevent morea being rebuilt the government that wants to rebuild it but also to extend the municipal camp all of these agendas holding up progress on the basic humanitarian emergency of putting these people into shelter. john thank you very much john psaropoulos our correspondent there on lesbos. julia gonna is from the open society european policy institute she thinks the situation unless boss exposes the failure of the e.u.'s refugee policy. then you have basically decided that all people
5:07 pm
arriving secure protection in europe from turkey will be confined and basically locked really particular on the kind of coast. this is a priority choice and it's thanks from the parents the idea is that if you create conditions the same up in most people who stop coming to your unfortunately then why are people still seek safety in europe as they bite you should and transnational although it has lowered the you standing in the world and in japan what how many continue from oral human rights and from a practical on well talk to people rising so the only solution is for the people to get out to each and other european countries what the u.s. and the state have been doing so far as you prioritize the children right. and that now is not the evacuation of all people but the problem is broader than that
5:08 pm
the children are basically being used as window dressing as we can hardly see you can say they're living up to thank you right obligation by ensuring the children thank you carol but nobody is taking care of the other of now i've been in abysmal conditions unhappy for long time including children with their families but also many other almost choked highs in the numbers now more that they would be perfect the knowledge for the situation is occurring have a structure has been created such will what. you were not talking about was stricken country which is it typical of mesic in a few 1000 refugees we're talking about the european union and despite that it is not common to our countrymen in the riches cobden to walk. the lead perfectly capable undertaking of the influx naming and that's what should be happening now. memorial services are being held in the united states to mark the 19th anniversary

5:22 pm
a fueling insecurity the summit was only a show of solidarity with greece micros aim is to pressure the e.u. leaders to take united as tough a stand against turkey's leadership and stop actions by ankara that are deemed by fronts as an affront to the block the french analysis is that turkey feels that europe is so we can burn or that it can play the fait accompli and that europe will not be able to react to that that's why i think the process trying to make turkey a test for europe as a power on the foreign minister says ancora is ready for unconditional dialogue but greece's talks will be possible only once turkish ships leave disputed waters unless and current shifts its position the e.u. could consider punitive measures against it when all 27 leaders meet in 2 weeks
