2:07 pm
my friends to survive the ship wreck in the mediterranean, this at all from the tennessee and coast last week. for he won't, people said that that's cool. sorry for to hold on. let me the correspondence in loud producer, but many of those migraines continue to rise high holder. i mean, the summer months do allow many migrants to attend start crossing from both africa . i'm not can be a powerless one, as we have reported an often fatal to of the indeed, and over the last 24 hours the talons have carried out $56.00 rescue operations. probably 57 because one boat with my goods a boat just dropped in to the fords here and lumpy. do that. that's about 2000 people. some of them were in distress. some of them were actually just approaching the close of lumpy do the best is speak to anyone and they tell you it is a race against time because simply those both they travel on uh uh,
2:08 pm
on the 5th, for any kind of sending list alone such a long journey and they are overcrowded, and then you have the fact that most of the migrants of on these both don't know to see, don't know how to swim and don't know what to do. in case there's a problem. it's a busy morning at the port. now, with better weather conditions, hundreds if not, thousands of migrants are trying to look across. they may need to radians. mothers hoping to give a better life to their children, young man wanting to build the future. this group of friends started the journey in synagogue jekyll and me now says the island go to the survivors. just a few days ago, he witnessed the boat landing on the beach funnel b and i, that'd be a good. i don't know how they do it. so many died, it's terrible. a few years ago we caught a body in our net,
2:09 pm
and often we find bones. yesterday a boat arrived on the beach. there was a mother with her child among them, but we gave them some food and water. i feel so sorry, it's ugly to witness. the most of the bows. get rescued or arrive unaided to sure. but they're also many the cup size migrants do take your gamble when they set off in these overcrowded rickety both. i'm fit to say such a long journey. and often they found themselves in distress in the middle of the sea, with no land and sight vessels leaving tunisia are made of iron, hastily sold it together. the engines too small to power them. and by large, the only safety device the migrants can rely on in their troops. do you many to risk a group see, watch carries out surveillance, flights in the central media to range in the intersections. and in this area where
2:10 pm
we getting more and more in, in the last 2 years, i would say that people who are now taking this route which is even. busy dangerous, if it, if you look into a, just the distance and, and the size of the mediterranean sea here, this is also resided by european policies and, and the, the, the, the tenants and the who opinion wants to put up people of this is the moment they ask immersion vessel to rescue for people, including 3 miners who are drifting in an open stop vessel with no engine. they survived for 4 days. they said they were involved in a shipwreck. 41, others remain on accounted for. or perhaps the bodies would wash off on the coast of lumpy doza, like those who are late to rest here, nestled among the residents. but the cemetery is at full capacity. and the latest victims of these desperate journeys still await a place to finally rest. for that,
2:11 pm
how many jersey lumpy do an estimate of 2000 people have died, etc, since the beginning of the year. but that's just an approximate number, because there's really no record about how many ships leave the coast of tunisia or libya and how many people on board a re, a vessel. now, all of all these, the districts i really put together for what the survivors say and they have been in such a hiring experience, that may be, the numbers are not exactly correct, but still it's a huge number. you know, so 5 is 95000 people who have arrived here in lumpy do the of the weather now isn't good conditions. you have rescue patrols at sea nearly 24 hours a day. you also have flights of over the sea to try to pinpoint those who are in
2:12 pm
this trust. but this certainly a big burden. and as we said, the weather is good. so we're going to hit the 100000 mark very, very soon. and at the moment there is no policy or policies that has mine is just the flow. of course, the story continues suddenly across the mediterranean, hold up, telling me that force in love produce a thank you. 5 us citizens helping move forward with the writing and present to house arrest as part of a deal between washington and tyrone is the initial step and in agreements involving the eventual release of billions of dollars of a rainy in funds frozen in south korea. i'll send jordan hospital, i see a mock num ozzie a much sharkey, more a tab us 3 a 5 iranian americans who were moved from the of in prison into han to house the rust on tuesday. they should return to their families in the us in the next few weeks. this is a positive step, but i don't want to get ahead of us is conclusions because there are more work to
2:13 pm
be done to actually bring them home. my belief is that this is the beginning of the end of their nightmare and the nightmare that their families of experience the us will release several iranians and held for violating sanctions, imposed on to hans. but perhaps the most important to, to have hon officials, $6000000000.00 long frozen and a south korean bank will be transferred to cut ours central bank. kataria officials will then release those funds only to be spent on humanitarian programs inside or wrong exports. a, it's significant that to hold would agree to such a financial arrangement. it suggests that iran wanted disagreement and wanted to de escalate attention somehow with the united states. and that it, it sees this as part of a strategy of trying to recover economically from the re and position of sanctions from cove it from everything that iran has gone through over the last few years.
2:14 pm
but let's not get too excited. i mean, let's understand, this is still the atlantic republic of the run. it is still severely repressing its own people. it, us officials are clear, the prisoner swap does not mean relations between the 2 countries are getting better. we're not in talks with iran on the return to the jcp away the nuclear deal . and that's, that's not on the agenda right now. what we are talking to around about, particularly through our switch representatives and our partners in the region is getting these americans home. we are still focused, as we ought to be on all the other d, stabilizing activities that are on, is capable of and doing in the region, supporting rushes, war and ukraine, supporting terrors, networks throughout the region and a lot. uh, and then of course the, the threats to maritime shipping in the, in the gulf itself. one diplomatic step forward. many more steps still to be taken between 2 long time phones. rosalyn jordan, l,
