a standoff between italian officials and a rescue ship carrying hundreds of migrants and refugees. humanity, one that's the name of the vessel was allowed to dock there on sunday, but it's now been ordered to leave the sicilian ports of cab tanya, it's captain refuses to go until everyone on board is allowed to leave and is threatening to go to court over this so far, 144 people including miners and people with health conditions were let off the ship . was dozens of single men were refused permission to do the same thing. crew members of another migrant rescue ship, the doctor continued earlier on monday, have also refused to leave people on the vessel operated by doctors without borders were waiting for permission to disembark. 572 passengers were on the job, wherein se norwegian flagship authorities only allowed miners, families, and people with health issues to leave that ship. there are another to rescue ships in the area. the german run rise above is here. it is overcrowded with $93.00 people on a boat that is only 25 meters long and the ocean. viking is anchored nearby. it is

operated by the european charity committee to honey and carrying $234.00 migrants. neither ship has received a response to repeated requests to dock. alright, let's bring in tony berkeley, who is in tanya. tony what's, what's going to happen here? i mean, what can happen, the italian authorities are telling those 2 ships that are at the dock to leave and they're refusing to leave somebody's going to back down in the end and you wonder who am the people i spoke of it from the ships the, the crew, the captain, they're all very adamant. they are not going anywhere until these people are allowed to disembark with all the others that went off on saturday. so they, they're not prepared to move. they're gonna sit here and wait, as long as it takes, they'll have food, they'll have supplies, and they have the will. but of course, you know, the migrants are on board. that's a different matter altogether because they're starting to get demoralized according

to the captain and the, the crew members that they've come through trauma and the journey just to get here . some of them almost sang, almost lost their lives. and suddenly they thought they'd reach the promised land and would at least be treated in a cordial and civilized way their feel. now that they're like prisoners on a ship, this going nowhere there in political, no man's land. and at the moment there's no way out somebody has to back down. but this has been the 1st stand of georgia maloney's government and her stand that her promise to crack down on illegal migration m. it's. we had something like $85000.00 migrants have come to this country so far this year, and some people are tired of that. some people say they are not vulnerable. they don't need help. the italian government now says these people to be left on board are vulnerable, but that's open to dispute, according to the crew in the caps in here, because they say it's been very arbitrary the way it was selected. who was going to stay in who was going to go somewhat, when not even spoken to. and if you look a little bit more deeply into their situation, republica,

the italian respected newspaper just published an article showing that in the last 2 weeks, something like 9000 migrants of arrived in italy. a lot of them in the south, either by their own means or having, being rescued by the italian coast guard. and nothing's been said, but the 900 or so that have been rescued by these for international foreign ships. they're causing all the problems. so people saying you can't have it both ways. 9000 arrive. what about them? tony is law enforcement involved in the situation as we speak. i mean, we know there's, there's, there's some tension, obviously, since the boats and not doing what authority the telling them to do. but i'm looking at the scene behind you and it seems fairly calm. it is calm. we've had a number of people have come to the gates here to show their support. they say the migrant should be allowed in. there's no 2 ways about that. they believe the migrants are being treated very, very badly. so there is support. i had to say it's only a few you don't have

a deep understanding of how far that feeling goes in italy or how far the government has their support. but there are real concerns here about what's happening to the mental state, those people on board. but people here are really are supportive of those and they want them on. but people on board are getting desperate in the last couple of hours, 3 on the boat boat behind me that you can see, attempted to escape. they threw themselves into the sea and attempted to swim away . they were apprehended and brought back. but that's a sign of desperation. and i think the tension and the desperation is only going to increase as time goes on without a solution. right, tony, thank you very much. now pope francis has spoken about italy's migrant crisis. he says, european union countries should share this responsibility me guns, the vinyl, called think migrant must be welcomed, accompanied, promoted, and integrated. if you can't make these 4 steps, you're not doing a good job with migrant. 5, it's necessary to go as far as integration. and the 2nd thing, i say that every,

each government must agree on how many migrants it can receive. because otherwise, there are only for countries that receive migrants, cypress, greece, italy and spain, which of those closest to the mediterranean, across the us, voters and candidates are getting ready for crucial midterm elections on tuesday. monday is the last day of campaigning. both democrats and republicans are making their final pitches. right now. democrats have a very slim majority in the house of representatives and they control the senate only thanks to the vice president's tie, breaking vote. but all of that could change with poll, suggesting a republican come back. president biden has been campaigning on values, issues, mostly rallying support for abortion, rights accusing republicans have a routing american democracy. a former president, donald trump, for his part has stayed focused on the economy and the rising inflation rates through days is the most important election. and

a lot of tribes is going to take shape in this country for decades become more of those inflection point. i mean, it's a surly where we're going to happen. the next couple years is going to have more to do with what this country looks like 20 years from now than anything else. vitamin d far left, luna takes away you are in your jobs, your safety, your values and your freedom. they're strangling fraud or families in hitting florida. very odd with soaring prices and devastating what they're doing to jurors or if you think about a tourism and hospitality service industries with crippling inflation at a dollar. and nobody talks about this that's valued a level that makes our country unable to compete with other countries, especially in tourism, and in manufacturing. well, the balance of power will probably come down to the races in for battle. ground states, georgia, pennsylvania, arizona, and wisconsin. the senate races in those states as some of the tightest in the

country. those are the ones you want to be watching on election night. gabriel elizondo reports from pittsburgh, pennsylvania is one of the most politically divided states anywhere in america. consider the last 2 presidential elections in 2016. donald trump beat hillary clinton by less than one percentage point. and then in the last presidential election, joe biden beat trump by barely over one percentage point. now the senate race here shaping up to be very similar between 2 candidates that are polar opposites. on one side you have the democrat, john fedor, man who comes off and pitches himself as a man of the people. he almost never wears a shirt and tie dresses very casually. and speaks in very simple language, often talking a lot about economic inequality. his opponent, the republican met, met us, is a multi millionaire celebrity doctor who's been endorsed by trump. now what matters

here are the voters of pennsylvania, and they seem like they can't decide on what issue means the most to them what's most important. some say it's crime and the abortion others say, it's the economy and inflation. but almost all voters that we've spoken to here agree that they are exhausted and tired with a political infighting and ready for this mid term election to finally be over. now listen to this according to one of the latest polls, both betterment and ours are both tied at 46 percent in the polls. so tuesday night here could be a very long night in pennsylvania, as officials are expected to count more than 5000000 ballots. and it could come down to just a few 1000 that decide who wins the senate seat. and in turn, what party, the republican or democrat wins control of the us senate. and remember to tune in at 2100 gmc on monday for

a preview of the us mid terms. we'll have an hour along special on what's at stake in the vote. the coverage on pulling day begins at $100.00 gmc on wednesday. you don't want to miss that either because we'll have corresponds across the us, of course, bringing you reaction results, everything you need on election night. so do state to intel 0 for that or tune in for that. now your current president is warning of more russian attacks on energy facilities followed him years. lensky says people should be prepared for persistent blackouts across the country. one energy company says ukraine was almost a 3rd short of power supplies on monday. keep the mayor is telling people to get ready to leave temporarily. if the capital loses electricity and water ratio appear in hazardous evening stabilization power outages continue and keep and 6 regions more than 4 and a half 1000000 consumers without alec tricity most of them. and now in cave and the key region, it's really difficult. every faucet reports from key that people are learning to

blackouts as much as they can for a few hours between different neighborhoods, even different streets. but just to give you one example, we were to a family wedding on saturday, a small party inside an apartment building and there was no power there. they just got on with it. and there is that sense of just getting on with it. a pretty positive public message or being put out there stoicism and defiance. and also some of that messaging coming from the government today as well, are welcoming in new anti air missiles systems to defend the country from these very systematic attacks on the energy system are they're saying that has come in. there's also some talk in the defense intelligence system about russia potentially losing a lot of its cruise missiles are not having a huge amount left in the locker to carry on these attacks for too much longer. very faucet reporting there are still a head anal 0 prisons, chief in the philippines is charged with the murder of a journalist. we are on the highway to climate tell. we lowered foot still
