3:28 am
a program that processes the images, recognize is what is approaching and sounds the alarm. it mainly distinguishes people and vehicles, which is what concerns us in cross border crime. the crime in question is illegal entry from turkey, including crossings by refugees from the banks of the everest river, which separates the 2 countries. 15 of these cameras will monitor the entire 200 kilometer length of the greek turkish border by the end of the year. they can detect people hiding behind trees and bushes, and there, supplemented by radar, unmanned aerial vehicles and graham sensors. surveillance was stepped up after march last year when turkey reneged on an agreement to hold back refugees from the european union. instead, it encouraged them to storm the greek border. but security concerns go back much further. in 2010, 36000 people entered greece illegally across the land border with turkey 26000 of them along the 12 kilometer stretch behind me. 2 years later,
3:29 am
the greek armed forces erected a double chain link fence, 3 meters tall along these 12 kilometers. and after last year's events, that fence was reinforced with the 5 meter tall steel palisade you see behind me. and there may be more sinister methods being used to deter crossings. refugees captured this video on their mobile phones in september 2018. they say it shows greek border guards, depositing them on the turkish side of the river after they attempted to cross into greece. such push backs are illegal under the geneva convention authorities, as opposed to allow refugees to apply for asylum forensic architecture. an independent research team at goldsmith university in london used 3 d modeling to identify the precise location of this. and other alleged pushback along the evidence and says, there is a set pattern once illegal entrance are arrested in greece. people are then held there for hours upon end until it gets dark when they are loaded on to
3:30 am
military style trucks or vans, again, driven to the bank of the river and loaded onto smaller things until you members agree to share the burden of asylum. greece is obliged to absorb any refugees that come its way and is likely to continue its policy of deterrence. jumps are awful. us al jazeera along the evidence river. ah, the top of the hour and these are the headlines, the death toll from violence triggered by the arrest of former south african president. jacob zoom has no reason to 72, hundreds of been arrested as well. violence of holes in the cove at 19 vaccination drive in some areas sound asian says the violence will stop only if he's released from jail.
