6:02 pm
qualifying, but no problems from france. i'm a new tab from q and bobby over belgium has both sides of the euro. 2024 qualifying term pains with winds. ah, thank you very much for joining us. italy is reporting a significant rise in migrant arrivals by boat with 2000 people reaching its shores in just a past 24 hours. italian coast, guardian and geo ships have rescued multiple boats that have been in distress and at least 34 people are missing. after a boat carrying mostly african asylum seekers sank off the coast of tenicia. the coastline of facts has become a major departure point for those heading to europe to nation officials say this is the 5th boat to think our fair coast in the past 2 days and at least 78 people have
6:03 pm
been rescued in international waters off the coast of malta, by the crew of the n g, a vessel emergency, the international organization for my asian says the central mediterranean has now become the most dangerous migration road in the world. but despite the dangerous, it's become the most commonly used route for migrants attempting to reach europe. conflict has driven a growing number of people from african countries to seek new lives there. in the 1st 2 months of this year, nearly 16000 migrants arrived on italian shores in 20212022. there were more than $6000.00 asylum seekers who reach italy by boat each year. but in the 1st 3 months of 2023, that number is already 4 times higher. more than a 3rd of those arriving this year. come from just 2 countries, ivory coast and guinea. while joining us now on the news, our is andrea did petra's woozy scientific director at the center for european policy in italy, and he joins us live from rome. thank you very much for joining us. why we seeing
6:04 pm
this big increase in arrivals of migrants in italy? despite the talent governments tougher stance on immigration, well this is, this is actually a long story since italy, it's always been facing this phenomenon. and the point is that the new government is trying to give a sort of new side signal showing that the italian institutions are not so willing to, to, to react in terms of rescue actions in the military. and, but this is bringing, i just say there are other casualties in the last weeks, also in front of neutrality costs. and this is a problem that really doesn't really want to face at the moment, wants to signalize, and that you a p n has is needed in order to face this phenom in properly. at least this isn't the line of the government. and so in terms of the arrivals, and we've heard, of course, the stories of, of, you know, a migrants being not allowed to disembark in italy, but i,
6:05 pm
italian authorities getting involved at all in rescue missions of boats. well, yes, actually they are doing something, but they also the, the, the current government issued the new provision at the end of last year, which is making the work of the rescue work of n g o ships harder than before since they're for now to bring to migrant, they've managed to rescue very far away from 1000, easily you know, to this and back them in northern italy hubbard, which is making the work harder than before is actually already taken out that the government one mean at least they want to discourage the actions of angels, but they're not really acting directly in order to save lives in the middle regions . so the government wants to discourage work of n g o, as you say. but once the migraines, those who are lucky enough to make it once they arrive on the tardy and shows what
6:06 pm
sort of assistance are they getting from italian? the toys authorities. yeah, they did. unfortunately, the quality of support is very poor so far there. there's a real. busy rios 1st aid action, but it's also very poor as well. which should mean also in this case, the italian government should actually provide more support to the migrants. but again, this is a long struggle, especially the right when governments, it was in the past, the, it was really want to be engaged in this part because they think that they want to show a hotline, especially for you know, for the internal politics by this affecting the quality of life of people arrive neatly, but they are legal mechanisms in place in italy to, to assist these migraines. are they not? there are some but again, is also a matter of implementing the measures if you have dismissal on paper by the quality of a real support is poor. even if you have a lot of measures is not really affecting the quality of life of people that we
6:07 pm
achieve. to, to, to, to arrive in italy. so what should the right picture? what should not andrea, sorry, what should a to lead and not just italy, perhaps the european union as a whole, do in the immediate right now to address this issue because as we've heard today, more boats are missing, a people are missing it. see what should be there, immediate action, any of you, in my opinion, the 1st section should be to enact area, european save and rescue action, which was actually before some years before already working and being stopped in the previous years. and so the 1st thing is, i would say for european union to save lives, which is actually one of the main concept. i'll do a p and you know, at the low organization for sleep. and then to realize that in this room and as a structure of the,
6:08 pm
redistributing the migrants which achieved europe doesn't matter which country 1st, but they must be clear that all the $27.00 member states must be engage in this action for, for, you know, for the quality of life, of people. right? but they're not on the same. they don't, they can't on not on the same line anyway, there is not a common stance among europeans and that some countries are not willing perhaps to pull their way to get involved. so how do you go about achieving this common policy that you talk about when there's so much difference and distance between nations? as sure, oh, of course, but the european union should look magically find out a legal measure to force all of the members states to take their part. the responsibility if they want to be in the union should take all the part of being and not the only the advantage, but also the rest of your obligations. been pocket european union. thank you so much for talking to
6:09 pm
a thank you for your time. andrea de petri scientific director at the center for european policy. natalie joining us there from the we appreciate your time. thank you for having me or let's talk about this further now with highly boss shows a syrian refugee who sought asylum in the u. k. in his previously crossed the mediterranean, in a small boat, his joining us live from liverpool helene, thank you so much for being with us on al jazeera. so talk to us about your experience, your journey, as you tried to make it to you, k. a. yeah. so i, i live by a syria in 2016 and i have to do is jeremy twice 1st from 30 degrees. because like some like the idea truth is that most of us has no legal way to, to say if a to 615 in you or any other country as no one provide the you illegal immigration . these are any type of visa, or even like, for example, if
6:10 pm
a place where you can stick asylum or ask for a protection in turkey, in our case, or into new year in the case of those 2 was that they have been so or like the main issue here is like finding a safer for those people that are running from so many different issue. so in africa we all know that now they have like so many issues like the climate change is hitting them very. but also that you can ration a conflict hitting like the, the supply change and it's causing a or a food issue. there are so many people has to leave because they have no other option. they have, they have to choose between staying there and life war conflict from anger or any other reason or leave the country. and when we talk about to leave the country in 99 percent of the case unless you are like reach on, we'll see. you don't have
6:11 pm
a legal way to make it, you have to take the risk and do that. so the point on your list, and i guess you went through that jenny, how did, i'm sorry to interrupt you. i think it's really important that we talk about this because we were talking use often about you know, both being rescued or migrant drowning at sea. talk to us about the conditions that you face as someone who's escaping a conflict or ex, basic escaping crisis in their home country. the condition that you faced in that boat as you try to reach a safe destination, who transports you there? who makes this journey possible, and what is the journey like? so in my case, like 1st time was it, i left the city and i went to turkey and i went to stumble. and you can just go to one of those public square like make some see and ask them and they're going to give you like a guidance they're going to get if you could get in touch with the smuggler. and
6:12 pm
then from there you can trust him. you are going to be a good one, i mean, like within your own body and just throw you our way or like on, you know, he going to like make that deal and help you to pass the other way in so many cases like people end up being scandal like they took that money and just disappear or like, i don't know. so many people use more about like maybe it's the same case with those people that they lost their life. so like this is how it's happening. like even like social media having like huge impact in that because when you search for pages for smuggler or ever, you find hundreds in each language in each country that they, that ties meant or those kind of jobs. and that is always high starting point. when you decide to, to like, put your trust, like trust your life to a smuggler, to the point that you take the sport and you make it safe to the other side. if you are like, is it is always
6:13 pm
a risk and we are all aware about that. we don't have another option, right? well, what would you say hello, get given everything that you've told us. now the risks involved, you know, the risk of being just actually not even making it and then spending so much money on this journey. what would you say to those who are trying to make this dangerous journey? today as you hear about the number of people who died trying to cross and so on, what would be your message to them here, but it's not. although i'm going to say to them, it's about like we should understand why this people are leaving fast. we should like target our sales in choose an under star, we're coming for like my message going to be, you know what, after all, if you make it here it is it worth it because you can hang it. so i live here. okay, what was your life been like this? and because i you make, if you make it fit, i arrived here i, i am getting in you,
6:14 pm
i'm living in my lives. i would never be able to have it in syria over like in any other place. so this is not an important message, is not my message or it's matter what it's mother is trying to understand why this people are living on like how to help them in case they need to leave, how to have them to say or to make it to have safely, it's not as a message is not as of a school, it's my thought is to understand that isn't the motivation. what it is. people are leaving. ok, hello. thank you so much for sharing your story with us. thank you for your time, honey. bash. a syrian refugee joining us, a line from liverpool. now the news, 2 people have been found dead in 13 others in distress inside a sweltering train car in southern texas. they believed to be migraines across intervene on his face from mexico. the us border patrol stopped the train near the city of san antonio within 230 kilometers from the border with mexico. local temperatures had reached 30 degrees celsius and investigation is underway and
6:15 pm
saying in the u. s. at least $23.00 people have died after several tornadoes read through parts of mississippi winds of more than a 100 kilometers an hour tore from a tall roofs from houses uprooted trees and knocked out power. there were reports of hale as well. people in the path of the storm are being urged to take cover as bring in our correspondence. she advertise in washington dc whose are falling, devout miss voice, so search and rescue efforts are continuing. what's the latest from a forty's she have in the affected areas? it's becoming pretty clear that one town in particular rolling fork, a rural town in the mississippi delta took the brunt of a tornado direct hit from or tornado, 13 of the fatalities you just mentioned of so far been reported there at would just beginning to get pictures from a as de broke of complete devastation. we're putting those together for years in the coming hours. but we just see complete some blocks leveled with rubble and
6:16 pm
overturned cars and tractor trailers. this is, you know, a rural, relatively impoverished town. a lot of people living in mobile homes, not very many basements in all of these houses. you have to wonder where people could have taken, cover it, hidden like in at 8 pm in the evening. and as we know from extreme weather events, when you have those occurring in the evening, you often get higher casualty rates because people don't hear the warnings or they're asleep or they just don't to vac, it'll take a terribly seriously. so this is enormous devastation that we're think enrolling for we don't think this tornado the same 20 to then move ne, about half an hour to silva city. that's another town where, where we, we've had a 3 casualties. what's interesting and then of course we have the storm system that was passing through anyway. and we have multiple reports of tornadoes and reports of overturned cars and rubble and power down power lines and trees and so on. what's interesting is that the national weather service is now sending out investigators to find out if there's multiple reports of tornadoes,
6:17 pm
how many are in fact the same tornado that just touching down repeatedly as it tracks tracks ne not. and we understand that investigators are now found out across the region, trying to find that up. thank you for that update. she ever tansy lived there in washington. let's discuss this further and find out more about these tornadoes. now . with aaron riggs, b who's a professional storm chase that he's joining us from this vicksburg in mississippi . thank you so much. and for being with us, as you heard a correspondent, their unclear whether it was one tornado or several of them that cause the destruction, the widespread destruction that we've seen in mississippi. the national weather service has been talking about the possibility that the devastation was caused by what it says was a skipping tornado. what is that, and how different is it from a normal tornado and how dangerous is it? yeah, it's actually what that is is that the storm is what we call it cyclic super cells . so as one tornado was broken out. another one immediately touches down right
6:18 pm
after it. so the cyclic super cells can oftentimes we can think that it's only one single tornado tracking over a very long distance. but as the damage surveys are conducted, they can see those missing points between tornadoes and determine if it was one long tornado or multiple large tornadoes. produced by the same storm, which is equally as impressive with the parameter space that we had yesterday to work with for that started to work with. it's not going to be a surprise to me at this. put down multiple strong low on track tornadoes. just one long track tornado. so multiple long tornadoes. how powerful, how dangerous, and how long do they last? making me. i've been teaching for about 12 years now. they can last anywhere from an hour to an hour and a half in track over 100 miles in 2017. i changed tornado. that was similar characteristics to the one that i saw yesterday. and it tracked across 3 different dates in the midwest. and was on the ground for over an hour and a half the same thing like we saw last december with the mayfield,
6:19 pm
kentucky tornado. it was 2 buried very long tract tornadoes. and that storm it ended up producing tornadoes for almost 3 hours. so we're talking about our sub, a leaven tornadoes, possibly more here in this situation. can you explain to our view is, are, and how, how these tornadoes form and how you, you're able to track their path. yes, so we have gps locations where i can position myself to where i think that the tornado is that on radar. and i can position myself in a safe position for the traitor across in front of me with the parameter spaces had in place. we had that really warm moist air come up from the gulf of mexico. we had what we call it stream when sheer in place. so those storms went up, they were able to tap into that very ripe environment for tornadoes. typically on a normal day we can get tornadoes with about, you know, 200 or 200 year one s r h. yesterday we had $500.00 s rates at the lowest kilometer, which is down at that surface level. so you've had
6:20 pm
a bunch of turbulent winds up in the atmosphere and when that storm took off, it did not take long for it to produce a tornado. when i got on it, it started out with just a small cozy it. within 5 minutes it grew into a quarter mile wide tornado just before it struck town. while it's impressive and the number of tornadoes, according to the national weather service, is among the highest in recent years and we only in march. now, what do you think are the reasons behind this increase in the power of the power of the war needles? and the increase in numbers as well. yeah, it's one of those things where the early fees, unfortunately, are usually those catastrophic events where, you know, they are impact highly populated areas versus, you know, the great plains, the nato alley. and we've been seeing with the drought conditions out west, there hasn't been as much moisture for storms to work with when the storm system start reject eat. when we have the storms work with the planes affecting less people. those are now shifting east because they're following the moisture and now
6:21 pm
these chemicals are impacting communities in the densely populated areas of the se . yeah, and several, several southern states that are bracing for powerful storm scientists. and is it possible to warn people while in advance to get to get out of harm's way, how, how do people protect themselves? absolutely, and it's one of those things where a lot of time, no matter how advanced our technology is, the mother nature is going to have the last day at the end of the day. but by being a storm chaser, we can provide that ground truth on if attorney was on the ground or not, there's only so much that you can see on radar for the warning process. and if i can send a picture to the local national weather service office who issued those tornado warning thing, hey, there is a confirmed tornado on the ground. it's large, it's do you mean damage? they are able to issue those really strongly worded tornado warning about destructive to being on the ground. and they actually even issued a 22 emergency yesterday, which is higher than a warning. we were able to provide that ground truth and able to get those warnings issued out ahead of time. unfortunately though, these tornado yesterday were moving very fast and they were moving at night. so
6:22 pm
they had very minimal warning time to work with in those community that were affected. some of those folks didn't even have time to get to the center, most room of their house or their basement. they were caught completely off guard. thank you so much for talking to us about this. really interesting to you. you're inside our reg speed, professional, our professional storm chase, a joining us there from mississippi. thank you very much for your time. our thank you for having me. there's plenty more head on this al jazeera and use our, including a deep divisions in israel, weeks of protests against the government spill beyond political circles and installed it took just 27 seconds to hold on. supposed to get a reality check in new york in how qualifiers that's coming up with b ah . first leaders from the spanish and portuguese speaking
6:23 pm
countries of gather in the dominican republic for talks. representatives from 22 countries are attending the i barrows, america's summit. the agenda is expected to be dominated by pulse pandemic, economic recovery, the warn ukraine, n climate change. our latin america added to lucy, a newman is at the summit in santo domingo. joining us live on the news hour. so lucy, or tell us about who's attending the summit and what are they going to be talking about with high there? well, the 1st of all, who is attending the summit is one of the big questions. will he or won't t? and i'm talking about venezuela's president nicholas, my val, they, we were told that he was coming, but he isn't in the plenary session yet. was far as we know, he hasn't landed in santo domingo. some say he's not coming others as saying he'll arrive for lunch, for the private sessions, where the heads of state and representatives of those governments who haven't sent their heads of state can speak in private or at least without cameras,
6:24 pm
without photographers, and without microphones nearby. there are many, many heads of state here though, but conspicuously absent is the president of brazil, lucy, not to let that silver. and the president of mexico look is over to a vote, which was quite surprising considering that they have always both of those countries placed a lot of importance in these regional forums. however odd the king of spain is here, the head of spain, of portugal, and there are a lot of talks going on right now. as i speak in the foreign ministry, a conference room that you see behind me to kind of try to come to agreement about the many things that these countries have in common. the dominican republic, the 1st colony of the americans founded by spain in 1492 to day it's hosting the 27th i barrow american summit. a forum for leaders of latin america, spain,
6:25 pm
portugal, and an dora $22.00 countries in all on the agenda, climate change, food security, migration, and strategies for regional integration to confront them. a persona professionally mclamore. yeah. these leaders are supposed to make sure that i want the birth is my work. no money. how can people feed themselves? that's why so many people leave our countryside coming. 65 year old lisa says, unemployment is made worse by the number of undocumented workers who come here from neighboring haiti. oh say, i mean that even the presidents should unite, have dialogue and reach agreements so that we aren't strung along to deal with the burden of haitian immigration because it's a problem for all of us. also on the agenda is a new source of inequality. the lack of digital access, affecting more than 150000000 latin americans. there's no way in which any country is more worried that they get the route from can really get into all the
6:26 pm
opportunities for okay. hm. for, for, for employment. good job to look it up. if you don't have broadband, robbie it says, happy. at friday's a barrel, american business forum, many investors, especially from spain, saw the problem as an opportunity. the point of the summit is to agree on common solutions to global problems. i say, and we bogo and t live the more from a very recently we suffered from enormous wildfires and we received help from the international community, especially from a barrow america that demonstrates the importance of our integration, dra, but it's proving difficult. the truth is that this is not a very propitious time for regional you city and not because of ideological differences as in the past. the red carpet may be out to welcome the visiting dignitaries, but the fact that many of the leaders, and especially the to president of the regions largest economies are not coming does not bode well for i bureau american cooperation. for those leaders,
6:27 pm
domestic rather than regional matters are taking priority. so they will have no say here. and yet another for an issue. disagreement on how to deal with a tax against human rights in the garage of salvador, cuba, peru, and venezuela, which are also proving devices yet another sign of trouble times in the americas. see in human al jazeera santo domingo. what are the things that we do know though, is that the final declaration will articulate agreements to counter digital inequality? food insecurity, which has risen tremendously since the pandemic in this region, and also climate change measures. so there is some sense of things are being done there also there's a talk, at least talk about a reference to the situation in haiti. remember the dominican republic shares the
6:28 pm
island that was one to known as east find your la with haiti and it there. and that was the very, very dire situation in that country. next door is probably affecting the dominican republic, enough for the post country to demand that there is some kind of a reference to it, even though it is a french speaking island or country. finally, i'd like to let you know that the united states has sent an observer christopher dog. the former senator, who has been appointed by u. s. president joe biden as his special envoy for latin america as well as a representative of india. so there is interest in what's going on here beyond the region itself. thank back to you. thank you very much. lucy. understand newman is our latin america editor, live there in santa m. israel now where opposition to the government? suppose judicial changes is growing by the day, the 1st law passed on thursday shells, the prime minister. it limits the ways he or she can be declared unfit for office. critics say prime minister benjamin that's now is using that to protect himself.
6:29 pm
i'll just here as a man can, has more from tel aviv, ah, 12 weeks and protests against a judicial reform bill showed no signs of slowing down with each week. the pass is more sections of israeli society, adjoining the demonstrations that want to stop the class. it's better to have the ability to overturn some supreme court decisions. oh, despite this opposition, prime minister benjamin netanyahu is not putting down a display of is really flags of protests is an expression of the deep sense of patriotism among those taking part. but now even that flag has a different meaning to different people. one of his roles at most well known political columnist gideon levy, says political divisions have always existed. his will never decided what it wants to be. are we are you appear in western liberal society?
6:30 pm
are we an oriental religious, a traditional. busy society, are we secular or religious? are we jewish or more slim or be national? i mean those question us so open because israel had not come into terms with its identity here in the occupied westbank israeli soldiers. thank god. but his role faces a crisis here as well. air force pilots and reservists are refusing to report for duty. the numbers are growing. and according to the israeli military, its ability to continue enforcing the occupation and ability to motor strokes on gaza will be severely impacted breaking. the silence is a group of form is where the soldiers is dedicated showing what its members say is the grim reality of israel's occupation of palestine. the fact the active soldiers are refusing to serve as come as a surprise to them. to be honest, i am surprised by how fast refusing to serving the army. i became a political,
6:31 pm
legitimate in our society. and when it came to this issue of the judicial overall, i think that it is a brave and it's an important way to non viral lee or resist and profit policies that you are against. and it's not just military personnel. intelligence officers are also joining the protest movement, and that's unusual for people used to working in the shadows. here in tel aviv, if you could be forgiven for thinking it's business as usual. but the protesters want to escalate and they are getting numbers out on the street. and their impact is being felt is being felt in the economy as people take time to protest. insecurity as soldiers refused to serve. in the judiciary, your position fights was independence. and in the government is becoming increasingly more hard line as the weeks go on. israel is no more devoted than ever before. the american out 0 television. and he is leading opposition. figueroa
