a sinking contain the ship from causing further damage to shrank as coastline. officials say most of the 300 tons of oil on board would have burned up by now since the vessel caught fire 2 weeks ago. but environmentalist to fill can learned about waves of plastic pellets, washing ashore. vanelle fernandez reports from colombo specialists, navy divers tried to assist the state of the sinking ship. the express bow, but heavy rain, wind visibility, and to me to make that impossible. authorities are racing to prevent further environment damage in the event of an oil spill. honda was marked by the investment with the nature of the fire which took place on board, the experts who came to view the d o would have burned. but when not confirming when not seeing 100 percent, that there is no oil number and worst case scenario. there may be some the impact of $300.00 tons of oil,

chemicals and hazardous material leaking into the sea would be disastrous for the environment. because of any logical is going to be very out. the lagoon, and the 8th, all or the calendar river. we can also the drinking water supply while glum. millions and plastic beads in the ship and ordered the fall, the ocean, and dozens of kilometers of sri lanka, coastline environmentalist, a warning of long lasting and die a consequence. the long term concern is supply sticks, break up comp, remove them from the beach or from the c is infected, will in impact on the food chain right from father point them and do it blanked and then the actual la bio, many marine species that form the basis of the hall for china and then from the concentration can occur, the disaster is actually been going probably for a lot longer than people realize decades. this is just

a long line of problems that have occurred as we have used plastics. very durable plastics on the stand of the extra bird has hit the sea bed and the vision is sinking. if the country's was ecological disaster is not bad enough. heavy rains and strong winds, like you can see around me, have scuppered all efforts to inspect the thinking ship with every minute counting in taking action to minimize father damage. the weather is not helping at all. manette fernandez just the ra, colombo, france has suspended joint military operations with motley off to the country. second, coo and 9 months. french troops are expected to continue operations in molly, on their own, its part of efforts to pressure them at region to, to work towards the democratic transition. see me go. it was declared president on

friday after ordering the arrest of civilian leaders. because hawk has more from the capital banker. this is a country under the attack from different and various arm groups from the i'll call you to fill the mountains with the slum wellness. the mean that 4 days ago attacked police post in the south of the country to the stomach state and the greater sahara members of that group attacked us base in the north of the country. so there are attacks in all areas of the country. and molly, the main and primary partner in the fight, again, those are the roof, is friends, the intervening 2012 and they've stayed ever since. now we're talking about here, 300 french soldiers specifically and now there's 5000 of them in this region. but their cooperation is key, not only in terms of sharing intelligence information with a 1000000 forces to prevent attacks, but also when there's wounded soldiers to we patch rate that will get to the

nearest hospital. so that's going to be a blow to the morale of the soldiers that are on the frontline, but also a significant hit to the military duty here in bond like the monks parliament has voted to establish a refugee reception center in a 3rd country likely to be in africa, politicians who voted for the bill say it will deter asylum seekers from crossing the mediterranean. europe in commission and the us have criticize the plan. the charlotte balice explains in danish parliament. politicians have taken strict immigration policies for asylum seekers and voted to make them tougher and as 70 to 24 vote. politicians agreed to move asylum seekers who arrive on danish soil tor reception seemed to in a 3rd country outside europe. with your applications would be processed little more than 50 percent. that arrived last year. they didn't have a need for seeking asylum or microns that's been a life. and i understand,

but i think that makes sense, but that's just not enough to get the residence permit to stay in the center. right. social democrats who back the bill say it will protect asylum seekers from being exploited by traffic is and making the mediterranean c crossing as they won't make the journey if they are likely to be rejected. but refugee rights advocates say any humanitarian benefits are misguided as asylum claims can only be filed at the danish border. it's nonsense to say that it's going to stop c crossings because it will not be possible to apply for asylum in the center. so people have to cross the sea anyway. so that's just ridiculous to call it kind of humanitarian. the united nations refugee agency wound last month. it could start a race to the bottom. if other european countries follows dean marks,

policy would be a huge game changer. if other counties would follow up is not like the, the pulses of thinking can be externalize and saw a cookie provider that on. i want to be out, but don't bring to all of county. it just going against the concept of the european commission also criticize the move, saying out sourcing asylum claims is not compatible with a you lose person. think of a fund raisers fundamental questions about both the access to the procedures effective access to protection. it is not possible under existing e rules or proposals under the new packed form on migration. and this item marks, tyson, immigration policies have come after more than $21000.00 asylum seekers. arrived in 2015. it now has a goal of 0 asylum seekers. and in april declared parts of serious sage, it is sound to provoking residency permits for some 3 and

a quarantine for 10 days, 7 other countries have been added to the case read list, including for lanka, and costa rica, 3 quarters of access covey. 19 vaccines in the us will be donated to the us by the global sharing program. kovacs president joe biden says millions of doses will be shared across countries in latin america, asia, and africa. our fisher has more from the white house with cubic cases at the lowest level in the us for more than a year, with more than 40 percent of the population fully vaccinated. the byte in ministration is turning his attention to the wider world. under a new plan just revealed the us. we'll send 25000000 doses abroad, straight away with the intention to distribute at least 18000000 doses by the end of the month. our goal in sharing our vaccines is in service of ending the pandemic global. our overarching aim is to get as many safe and effective vaccines to as

many people as fast as possible. it's as simple as that. we want to save lives and toward the very end that place all of us at rest. or perhaps most important, this is just the right thing to do. the 1st $25000000.00 will be split between central and south america, asia, and countries across the middle east, including garza and the occupied west bank. in a statement president your biden insisted the wider distribution was a national security issue. seeing strong american leadership is essential to ending this pandemic now and to strengthening global health security for to morrow to better prevent, detect, and respond to the next threat. the us says it will still have control over where the vaccines will go, but it's emphasizing it's not looking for concessions or imposing conditions. it does, however, piece of struggle to get back to the nation rates in the us up. many people know reluctant to get the job, and in some communities, vaccination rates are very low. that comes with

a white house warning. we have millions of americans still in need of protection and communities at risk because of low vaccination rates. here's the bottom line. the bottom line is that if you are unvaccinated, you are still at risk of getting seriously ill or spreading the disease to others. all of the initial 25000000 doses will come from the federal stock pilot. all have been approved for us here in the united states. more doses will be made available as the stoke increase it allen fisher. i'll just eat at the white house. qualifying games for the cost of 2022 world cup of being played across south america, despite rising co, with cases that the matches come just days before the capa america tournament kicks off. in brazil, it was a last minute choice. the venue off to the original co host in countries, argentina, and columbia was deemed safe daniel formula now from one side of the

international games in latin america. both the world cup qualifies and the copper america will go ahead because the regional governing body co mobile has decided they math what they want in the next year in our system for that. so they think and competitions must be played us. they are scheduled this despite argentina recording a daily average of 32000 new cove. in 1900 cases, colombia has a wide scale anti government process and is recorded nearly 90000 deaths. so now on june, the 13th brazil will host a copper america. but they've recorded nearly 470000 deaths from the virus, and the hospitals on the verge of collapse. so it really the best option. it's not the best, it's the only and that's why it has in rescue. they have the

stadiums off the hosting, the 2014 well car and the last couple medicare in 2009 team. it's also a country where the president job also not all keen to hold the competition. he's always called the virus, nothing worse and the little flew as his life should continue as normal. well, i saw a hell of some drugs that they will only be a few copper america games. so i don't know why people are against it, especially as we're still playing games in the brazilian domestic championships and the liberator doris cup. the games will be played in empty stadiums, but several players and managers who already express their concern. if it a while or a little, but surely the situation in brazil is the same or worse than it is here, which makes the decision to play the difficult to understand. this doesn't mean however, that we won't go and play our best. but 1st, the focus is on the world cup and the resumption of qualifying games. each country

plays 2 matches before the copper america kicks off. brazil and argentina as they often do it at the top of the table. while venezuela, peru and bolivia occupy the custom replaces at the bottom football in south america is more than just a distraction in idle leisure pursuit. it's wrapped up with politics and finance. the menu would say life itself. so even while the corona virus pandemic continues to wreak havoc across the continent, the gay remains a fundamental part of the debate. daniel swine, there was era when the cyrus, israel's longest serving leader, is battling for its political survival after a diverse mix of policies announce they'd form a government. it could be the end of benjamin netanyahu is 12 years as prime minister. but it's not going down without a fight lesson. yeah. who's accusing his rival nef, tommy bennett, of sending out to a palestinian israeli party. it's the 1st time the party has back to propose this

re, the government has force it has more from west jerusalem. the question is how much nothing. yeah. who can try to peel away some of these right wing as a who for now at least remain part of the coalition in, in utero as it was, they're trying to put it together. and it also that the question is when this will take place now the head of the, of the opposition. yeah. le paid, who has formed this coalition and is decided to step aside and allow natalie bennett to go 1st as prime minister. he wants to try to unseat the current very netanyahu friendly speaker of the house and have a vote on monday to replace that speak with an opposition speaker, who would then facilitate this vote more quickly and restrict the amount of time that benjamin has to try to get in the way of the coalition being formed. there are questions now as to whether natalie bennett's party is entirely up to that there

was at least one member of his party. it was expressed unwillingness to do that. so even that in part of the 1st step toward getting this vote through looks in question. so there is certainly still plenty to playful for benjamin netanyahu. and he's been doing all he can to try to put russians between the, between the constituent parts of this coalition. already the netherlands has a long history of reclaiming land from its waters for crops than settlements. one of its latest additions is a cluster of 5 islands in the country's largest lake. but it's animal and not humans who are moving in. boston has more from mark than the dutch colonizing land again, but this time they created themselves 5 years after digging up mud and sent from the bottom of the netherlands. largest lake. this new islands can now be added to the country map, forest range of them. crete, so how blubbering filled and clay turned to solid soil and it was actually

a dangerous. we went in the compartments with ropes, but somebody got stuck like this. my sofa went to a free times like this in. it's not that nice. and now you can stand there. yeah. but you have to be cautious. the marco, what an islands have been built in the mock, amir, which itself was created artificially more than a century ago. i close enough the southern sea to protect the dutch mainland from flooding. as a result, marine life nearly disappeared in the lake. the islands created out of silt are expected to be stored in lakes ecosystem. we interfered with all natural landscapes heavily in the netherlands. it also made us brought us a lot of prosperity. but you see that the main ecological structure of the netherlands. well, it has some damage because of all these works. so this is, this is a way to improve this again. and it seems to be working. the islands are quickly

turning into the country, the largest birth sanctuary with ever set beated readings, and even flamingoes, finding the way to the new land. the most important lesson is that when we get the naked opportunity to do their thing, it works so we can destroy nature, but we can also restore it a make nature. how does the engineer manage to turn money into solid land that can carry thousands of kilos? has fascinated research is worldwide and remains a mystery today. dozens of research and working on the islands to find answers to the most important question. why can i now stand here and not sink into the month? fishermen will make a living of the lake have protested against the creation of the island. they see their fishing grounds disappear quickly and refused to believe the government plan will re 5 marine life with him. if they would have created one island as a breeding place for birds that would have been fine,

but they go further and one more and more they are throwing, sent everywhere, even at the most important breeding places for fish. the government admits that more islands are planned in the future, but incense that nevertheless fish stock will increase to be more patient cost at 1st, if you say cell phone the heck out of the water, so that a heck where we call fish anymore. that's the point, but we said well, after i was i completed, you will see that it will be more fish after being criticized spending 70000000 euros on new land. solely for birds. the government, as decided to open one of the island for tourists in the future, they expect more than 100000 visitors every year, potentially jeopardizing the same paradise. they try to create in the 1st place, steadfast and elgin's era. marco watson. ah,

let's take you through some of the headlines here now just do and now hong kong police of.
