4:02 pm
a friend me ah, pulling is well on to why and italy's general election is vote isn't party leaders? cast their ballots. opinion polls predict a right wing coalition pricing to power with a far right later for the 1st time since the 2nd world war, the central, if democratic party is 2nd on the pulse, the leader of the far right brothers of italy, party, georgia, maloney could be italy's 1st female prime minister, her opponents say she wants to distance the country from the european union. something she denies. caretaker, prime minister mario truck, he resigned after his coalition collapsed in july triggering bis election. let's go straight to stephanie dick a who's at polling station in rome. so 70 voting has been underway for a few hours now. what's the turn out to have been like so far?
4:03 pm
well, the latest figures are at mid dangers about 3 hours ago now, which was 19 percent, which is pretty much in line with the figures in 2018. the last time it to the boat to turn out during those electrons works around 73 percent. so quite high we would have to wait and see what the turnout is going to be like today. but here certainly there's been a steady struggle, a trickle of people. it's raining, it started to rain this afternoon, but people have been coming here to cost their vote. it's a bit of a complicated voting system. you can probably see the ballot behind me. one is for the house, one is for the senate and it's a very complicated way of voting. his 1st pos, the pull for one 3rd and then another one was 2 thirds is proportional representation. what really matters is the bigger picture here. and as you were mentioning, the polling all indicating that we do expect to unless or surprises and each lie in politics does also allow for that. but there to be
4:04 pm
a majority vote for the right wing coalition, led by georgia maloney's party that he the tanya brothers of italy. we're going to be expecting an exit poll around 11 p. m. our time, that's an around 8 hours from now. when pulling closes to give us an indication whether those predictions were correct. and what could all this mean for the relationship between ethically and the european union? has a lot has been made about this in, in the media in the past, st. george maloney called for italy to exit. euro's own. she has backtracked somewhat from that recently in particular saying that she would not be leaving the european union. but she has campaigned on a platform of very much returning to italian identity to independence on nationalism. but at the same time, the bigger picture is this service is a country in crisis, and it's very much dependent on billions of euros of european money that come with
4:05 pm
conditions of the unless we've been speaking to. i will tell you that, you know, regardless of the rhetoric and regardless of her real politics, there is still a structure in place. it's going to be very difficult to maneuver outer, but again, you know, we're gonna have to wait and see if the predictions are correct. if she does come to power, but yes, there is going to be perhaps more of a independent push in a way less so certainly than the previous prime minister. matthew dragon was very much a close to europe, a man who is seen as are running a unity government that spanned from left to censure, to write something that george maloney never joined. i think this is also been very much part of her success story that she stayed away from the establishment. she stayed very much in opposition, which is why people now fed up with a political system as italians. very often our have put our putting their i trust in her stephanie dicky for us and rome. thanks for that update. the lebanon's worsening economic crisis is forcing many people to flee. syrian state media is
4:06 pm
reporting that 97 people have now died while trying to escape poverty and hunger and rich europe. they were on board a boat that sank off serious coast on thursday. the vessel lift lebanon's many years region but went down near the port city of touch was in syria. the group had hoped to reach italy, funerals for health, for some of those who died to live in. his army says it's arrested a man. it suspects was behind a human smuggling operation. so i know how to has more from a refugee camp in the lebanese city of tripoli. talk to anybody here in the day we refugee camp in northern lebanon, and they'll tell you, we know the risks. give us a boat and we want to leave. people are tired, they're frustrated. these people have been here for decades. they live in a country which doesn't give them basic basic rights. they have no access to health care. they have no access to education. the only organization that helps them is
4:07 pm
the you and relief agency for palestinian refugees. but that agency is, has been begging really for money for years. that doesn't have enough money to help these people. many of those who were on the boat were palestinian 9595 bodies have been found. a 20 have been rescued. we just managed to speak to a survivor. he's in a hospital here, abraham months or he's 29 years old. he's still in shock. he tells me that he still hasn't forgiven himself because he couldn't help others of the boat set sail wednesday morning. 4 hours later, the engine stopped and they called the smuggler unsure. and he says, if you come back, this is of course, according to him for him, we will shoot to. and so the, due to the high waves, the boat capsized for him, says in a matter of mid moments, really 10110 people died. he saw bodies everywhere. those who survived were clinging on to the boat that overturned. he was close to a child and another man,
4:08 pm
but then he lost them and he eventually swam to shore to the syrian shore. he tells me i still cannot forgive myself that i couldn't help that child. he later found out that child died. many children were on that boat, that's the story of one survivor, another survivor told his story in an ambulance as he made his way back from syria to lebanon. this wasn't a journey, there was nothing but a nightmare. it's impossible to forget what has happened in the scenes i've been through. we suffered an engine failure. waves tampered with the boat, we lost control and we ended up in a cap sized boat. automatically people on board were pushed by waves to all directions, left and right under and above the water. no one came to rescue us. as i stayed almost 24 hours near the boat, which was overturned, staying floating, it hadn't sunk. i managed to keep myself over the boat, and then i swam for 13 hours till i reached the syrian tortuous coast. i've been
4:09 pm
told that some survivors were saved and rescued by russian and syrian boats. but i've seen nothing till i reached the shore. the lebanese economy began to collapse 3 years ago in the past. that was basically the palestinian and syrian refugees making this journey. as of late, there was an uptick in the number of lebanese, according to the united nations. there are you and hcr, approximately $3500.00 individuals attempted to make the journey this year alone. but security sources tell a fatter, conservative figure, just look around you and you can see how people live here. they live in camps they . 1 borrowed from many professions, according according to the lebanese law, this is concerning palestinian refugees, syrian refugee is, are they receive little help from you and hcr, but they cannot return home to syria. the guns may have fallen silent in many areas, but some will tell you we are still wanted by the authorities because we were engaged in opposition activities. others will say we can't go back because of the
4:10 pm
economy is so bad. 90 percent of people in syria are poor and 90 percent of syrian refugees in lebanon live below the poverty line. and the political class in lebanon has really done nothing to try to alleviate the dire living conditions, weather for the lebanese syrians and palestinians. and this is why people feel that they have nothing to lose, and they are ready to take this risk and try to reach the shores of europe in search for a better life. lebanon is home to nearly half a 1000000 refugees. more than 479000 of them are registered with the union refugee agency, almost half of them live, and one of the countries 12 camps conditions. they're a dia with over crowding, unemployment and poverty. the civil war and syria has forced many palestinians and syrians to flee, to live in on, in search of safety, palestinian refugees and lebanon don't have basic rights. they cannot work in as
4:11 pm
many as 39 professions, and cannot own property. or joining us now as tamara al refi, she is director of external relations and the spokesperson for the you in our w way. she joins us from a man. thank you very much for being on this news. our, as i just mentioned, is almost half a 1000000 refugees in lebanon. has it really just got to the point where many have no option but to try and flee by boat? hi, tom. the answer is yes. i heard that xena before me say, most of the things that we had over i have been saying for years, which is the situation of a is reaching such a desperate level that they are willing to risk their lives along these perilous routes. if there is hope on the other side, and the other side always looks better than what many of them describe as how most balancing refugees in lebanon live, in 12 count across the country. but as you as
4:12 pm
a and i said there are marginalized disenfranchised bars from bullying, property bars for professions and the economic and financial collapse. the lead on, particularly this last year, has a hit at the most vulnerable 1st the palestinian refugees are amongst the hon. the most hon. more so because unlike other communities or groups in lebanon, apart from under the un palestine refugee agency, they have no one to care for. whereas usually, community leaders are sick, darian leaders, all them to spend money on their communities. nobody spends money on palestine refugees except for other which in itself is facing immense financial challenges. he sit, if they stay, it looks like it's hell for them via can you just give us a sense of what it's like in these 12 refugee camps over crowded?
4:13 pm
no basic infrastructure, everything is made shift, but that's the main shift that's lasted since 1948. so it's a very long nation. i actually invite anyone who visits lebanon to go and visit one of the refugee camps, and to see how it's on a livable everything is below the basic understanding of a dignified life. one thing to note is that from the some people who just had this tragic boat incident, most of the palestine refugees on that boat and we estimated those to be funny and very come from not as bad as town. this is account that was very much destroyed around 15 years ago and one of the rounds of, of violence 11. on 2 of these 25 to 30 people are owner of school children. these are people we know, these are people who are young people who go to school, who have an education,
4:14 pm
who wanted to go to the other side in search for a better life for them and maybe for the next. but give, this is truly tragic. and the them, my colleagues, that other are horrified as the news an article do the donors do? the international community is nobody wants to be a refugee. nobody wants to live or sometime humiliating love as fell aside. refugees live in many of these counts. and the, one of the last that the last source of stability in the life of palestine, refugees, is unaware that the schools that under our kids go to the health center center is that the balance that refugees can access. this is big. this is an infrastructure that gets a bit of normality to boast than reppidy. and now even that on the run are maladies . a trust because of under funding. as we've seen, obviously taking journeys like this is so perilous. so i mean, what are other options are the for people who are desperately trying to leave one
4:15 pm
option is employment and to find employment, then this is a difficult situation because unemployment is really hitting her and all of it. he's in tennis hard. there are those who are systemically and systematically thrown on campuses them because there's so many professions that they cannot access. but one thing that under the does provide employment under the does provide education road that's provided the kind of education that can be used online, especially in the digital world of it. so someone who's into i t or was been trained on iraq, vocational and training centers can provide id services globally in the same way that many people in bundle or in the india do. and that's why as central to the do the do, the dignified life of the palestine refugee. and that is like in a situation of almost entire collapse bad. that economic and financial system is
4:16 pm
living on keeping under a strong giving it that, that, that, that position, that, that strength in the lives of balance and record you can really mitigate them. curb some of the risks that they are taking because they feel they have nothing more to lose today and living on then maybe they have some things again, on the other side, if they don't die and a thank you so much for your time. that is tomorrow. i'll horrify for us. thank you . plenty more ahead on this news, allan, including north korea, fuzz, a ballistic missile days ahead of joint military jewels by the us and south korea. and, and sport novak jock, of which makes his long awaited return to tennis. sana, we'll be here with all the details that's coming upon shall mobilization order announced by president vladimir putin has sparked protests across russia,

4:20 pm
a proportional way. and we're also getting reports very interestingly in about last owl so which we cannot confirm. certainly pro ukrainian telegram channels are describing what they say. sounds like it sounded like a car bomb, at least 2 bombs or explosions, i should say. in the city of bare dance, now bird danced, is russian control. it fell into russian hands in the early stages of this war. it is the west of the city of mary opal. so it's only as we'll see, it is actually a ukrainian naval base. it was commandeered by the russians, as i say, in around sort of late february, early march. we can't confirm those reports is a similar kind of report coming out about an explosion in the city of a millage hoppel as well, which is even further west than bird dance. another city that fell into russian hands and the very. busy early stages of this war, now there are other,

4:35 pm
well, and i haven't, besides what i've been saying the many media during these days, it is possible that doctor maloney would continue or would that the change in their image that was doing during the actual campaign that you asked for meant to reform our party and your image into a more conservative par, the actually and so i don't think will be any problem and any, and any risk for the democracy as in some media and some newspapers. and also some political back is where we're saying during the electoral campaign. so she has been working a lot on her defense forming and do forming all of these political offer and political program. and we have to say that she has learned that during those years, during the last years, it is something very important. she has been changing air, political positions, and g as going to the direction of the big conservative party. moreover,
4:36 pm
we have to remember as being mentioned, that we are talking, talking about dick coordination and not what he should. there are also a body that these are strongly lever on body and the mother party. so this will be something that will count into the future government. and just lastly, we have to remember that all not only need to leave, but that you know, western countries, western democracies, these and populist vogue as being changing and they need to re address a match and their political message because of these no more a following down in their 1st and your 1st offer. so they are trying to be ready to govern their countries. ok, you mentioned the coalitions and she has said that she's going to build a stronger hates of coalition if she is elected. now
4:37 pm
a huge part of italian politics is managing that coalition. do you think that she will have any chance of being able to through that a well, it depends on the result of the elections eat, but her majority will be very, very wide. will be very big data, these will be stopping in the block then. if not, we will see, i mean, it is a, a parliamentary system as we know. and so in the parliamentary system, it is possible that after the election in the parliament there are forming different majorities, you know, there was a government, but all the clues, all the information that we are going to direction of our government in plenty of changes to italy's parliament can you just give everyone a bit of an explanation of how it will work now? well, we have to say that we are experiencing a very deep crisis,
