we appreciate you staying with us. our top story this hour first it was isis command and control and after it's their cash flow. >> the pentagon says u.s.-led air strikes overnight hit a dozen mobile oil refineries run by isis in eastern syria. part of an operation that earns the militants as much as $2 million a day. the impact is still being assessed. but the pentagon says it's confident that the air strikes were successful now meanwhile, britain appears to be on the verge of taking military action against isis in iraq. prime minister david cameron told the u.n. general assembly his recalling british lawmakers later this week to get their authorization on air strikes and our erin mclaughlin is live in london with details on that upcoming vote. prime minister david cameron reconvening parliament to get approval for air strikes on isis in iraq. can we assume that he's fairly

confident then of getting the support he needs even after that failed vote on syria in parliament last year? >> reporter: i think so, rosemary. i think it is important to keep in mind that lawmakers in the uk are very wary not to repeat the mistakes of the iraq war so they'll want to see a proposal that last very clear objectives that's firmly rooted in international law which is perhaps why prime minister david cameron yesterday at the u.n. general acentrally laying out his plan. in a speech that seemed more geared towards lawmakers back home than the diplomats in the room take a listen to what he had to say. >> the u.n. security council has now received a clear request from the ira government to support it in its military action against isil so we have a clear basis in international law for action and we have a need to act in our own national interest

to protect our people and our society. so it is right that britain should now move to a new phase of action. >> reporter: now the action that parliament will be considering on friday's air strikes over iraq at the request of the iraqi government, prime minister david cameron saying yesterday that any sort of syrian air strikes would have to be debated perhaps at a later date, rosemary. >> yeah, i wanted to ask you about that point because, of course, all of the action at the moment is in syria so the big question, it appears like britain is sort of playing catch-up here in a sense. doesn't it? because this is where barack obama wants the support going into syria. going into the safe haven for isis so it would have to be fairly swift presumably chatter about syria coming up after this vote on iraq.

>> reporter: that's right. the british government has not yet ruled out the possibility of involvement in air strikes over syria but right now they're focussing on this request by the iraqi government for air strikes over iraq. ed milliband saying before he would first want to see some sort of u.n. security council

for a look at what he's changed here's jim sciutto. test. test. >> we can renew it to russian aggression in ukraine to the outbreak of ebola. but little more than a day after he took the u.s. and its coalition partners to war against isis in syria the president identified the central challenge as the cancer of violent extremism. >> there can be no reasoning, no negotiation with this brand of

evil. the only language understood by killers like this is the language of force. >> reporter: military action however is only part of his solution. he demanded that must lips themselves stand up to the root causes of terrorism. >> it is time for the world especially muslim communities to explicitly, forcefully and consistently reject the ideology of organizations like al qaeda and isil. >> reporter: it is a more and aggressive foreign policy defined by his decisions to end war in iraq and afghanistan. and avoid military action in others including until now in syria. this was president obama at the g-20 last year in russia. >> i was elected to end wars, not start them. >> reporter: and this was mr. obama today. >> those who have joined isil

should leave the battlefield while they can. those who continue to fight for a hateful cause find they're increasingly alone. >> reporter: jim sciutto, cnn, new york. >> now, a number of middle east lead remembers using their u.n. speeches to denounce isis, becky anderson is live in abu dhabi and joins us now to talk more about this, becky, we did speak last hour about what we expect to hear from iran's president rouhani. he will speak thursday at the u.n. and the uae and saudi arabia assisting in the most recent strikes. is there a new voice, a new message coming from the region as a whole that we haven't really heard before? >> reporter: well, i think it might be from the president of iran today. watch this space. he will speak in about six hours' time and i think it will be really interesting to hear what he says today. the british prime minister yesterday reaching out to iran saying that we should be

inclusive working with partners in the region, potentially including iran so would they be part of a solution? i would doubt it very much. rouhani has already said and i quote "u.s.-led strikes," paraphrasing here, in syria they are illegal and should have been conducted only after receiving concept from the syrian government. he would say that, wouldn't he, you might say given that syria has been this proxy war between iran and saudi for so long and now the ashes of that civil war, of course, the emergence of isis. let's have a listen to what he said to our colleague fareed zakaria yesterday. >> translator: the american authorities, they themselves they have announced that they wish to train another terrorist group, equip that group and send them to syria to fight. >> you mean the free syrian army?

>> translator: you can call it whatever you wish, sir. be that as it may, it is a group, it is another group that as they have announced, i'm not sure what their plan is, they say we wish to train these folks in another country, military training, and they even announced the time frame. with whose permission? with whose authority? with what mandate? according to what international laws and norms are they doing this? >> the story for iran let's remind ourselves in syria is a very different one from that in iraq. it is and has been already involved in the training and equipping of at least shia-led militia. if not the iraqi government forces themselves and that's well known. the story in syria is quite a different one because, of course, the iranians, a supporter of the bashar al assad

government there so any suggestion that these fsa, free syrian army rebels, opposition that saudi has said it will help equip and train never going to be something that sits easily with the iranians so watch this space i think is the clear story from this side here in the middle east and we'll await to hear what the president of iran says but first he is the first to speak and i think it will be a very powerful speech. >> certainly right about that. now separate from what world leaders have been saying on the national level, we did hear yesterday president obama, prime minister cameron both challenging muslim communities, a reference there to not just, of course, the middle east but muslim communities in the west and the uk and in england pushing them to reject the perversion of islam that really isis represents really a cornerstone of how they're able to recruit. what's the reaction been there to that point that muslim

communities, you know, at large, that more than billion muslims around the world should do more to stop isis from being allowed to spread its perversion of the religion. >> reporter: really depends who you speak to because there are efforts certainly here in the gulf and in other countries around this region that the per series ideology that the isis uses as it were as its oxygen for their extremist violence is something that needs to be challenged and you hear people talking openly about that, about challenging preachers and imams, challenging the narrative that their kids may hear in schools, you'd have this rift between qatar and other members of the gcc, qatar, of course, who hosted the muslim brotherhood who many countries around this region see as enjohnsoning that per series ideology as it were or at least the rise of

political islam and i think you get sort of sensible people on the street here who would support the need to at least interrogate what is being said about islam by isis and extremist violent groups like isis but then you've got people who are buying that that ideology in areas or countries around this region so it really depends on who you speak to. i mean i think it was a very provocative speech by the president of the united states yesterday and it surprised a lot of people and some people here will have felt it was a bit of a lecture. i think the idea that the coalition will have felt it was a bit of

pressure or barbaric acteds. france knows what is expected. it knows that it carries these values. it knows it has a role to play and france will never renounce this role. >> and president hollande said something that captured the imagination, decapitated because he was french. that's what he said in his speech. that did unite the country. >> yeah, indeed. and just horrifying, of course, given what has happened now, what can we expect france to do as far as its role in this fight against isis in syria? >> reporter: well, it's maybe

changing here, rosemary, the fact is the president is back in france as an emergency meeting of his defense cabinet in about three hours' time and the defense minister here said the idea of bombing in syria the french taking on the role of bombing of syria was a question that is being asked so we don't know what the answer is going to be but that meet something going to take place in a few hours and may get an answer after that. >> all right, our jim bittermann reporting live from paris, thanks as always. well, it's not just isis fighters in syria and iraq that are causing concern for western leaders. there is a real risk that foreign fighters from europe are returning home to potentially launch terror attack there is. >> authorities across europe are now trying to stop them, of course, our atika shubert has more. >> we got attacked by a coalition of america and some arab countries. >> reporter: this masked fighter speaks in dutch and english as he walks through the damage from

coalition air strikes promising to take revenge. a number of foreign fighters were reportedly killed in the attacks. but now as strikes continue, there are worries that foreign fighters may attempt to return home by illegal means undetexted. >> we're very concerned about the way in which they're able to travel across europe and multiple forms from multiple routes to reach syria and of course mostly concerned about the way in which their experience in syria and iraq radicalized them to such a point they will come home and pose a clear terrorist threat. >> the coordinating body for law enforcement in europe as just finished arquimedes involving more than 30 nations. over the course of nine days at least 10,000 illegal mike grants were checked more than 107 were arrested for people smuggling. but europo europol says this.

>> they have to work in a concerted way to share their information across borders and engage in multiple cross-border operations so that we can track the most suspicious of these travelers who have a clear intent to carry out terrorist activities. >> we will keep fighting the enemies. >> reporter: like this fighter already thousands from europe are believed to have traveled to syria and iraq to fight. now countries are grappling with the problem not only of pro-venting them from going, but what to do when they return. atika shubert, cnn, rotterdam, the netherlands. it's a disturbing issue. let's look at the number of european jihadis who traveled to iraq and syria. we can pull it up for you on the screen. these are the latest figures given to us from local governments and research institutes believed to be 930 fighters from france and at least 800 from russia. you can see that around 500

jihadis fighting in iraq and syria come from the uk. 400 are from germany but atika t happens if these isis fighters come home? joining us now live from london is horace rafiq and is an expert from a think tank. we've seen just this week u.s.-led air strikes with arab military air support and now the security council resolution that makes it much more difficult for these fighters to get funding. in your opinion is this anti-terror effort moving in the right direction taking the necessary action to stamp this kind of thing out? >> absolutely. there are two parts to combating the threat that we face from european and western jihadis that are fighting in the region and also potentially back home in european and the west, as well. the first part is absolutely we need to take the battle to the

jihadis in the region. we need to combat -- we need to really strangle their funding and really beat them on the battlefield. that's one part. the bigger part of it really is building the resilience amongst the european and western muslims, communities, so that when youngsters because they're radicalized before they go out to the region so when youngsters have the messages of hatred, of political islamism of this utopianism they have the ability to push back. one of the key problems we have there in the usa, in the uk and europe as well we have groups like the muslim brotherhood funded by countries such as qatar that for decades have spread this idea of the caliphate and have done it without them being challenged. we need to help purvey a more traditional classic version of islam by not just muslim s but y

the whole region so they aren't radicalized. >> i think that's what we're seeing and so amazed this is really starting to appear like a real regional effort. we talked about finances. the black market oil trade is really the financial lifeline for isis earning them millions of dollars per day. if these strikes are successful as the u.s. is now claiming they are in diminishing that how long until we see any real results and what will results look like? will it be people defecting from isis, will they be losing numbers? what -- how will we know if this was successful? >> okay, i think what will happen is we as we're seeing as the kurds have been coming out from the north and baghdad has been pushing from the south and the air strikes that we've been seeing from the u.s. and arab coalition, isis members are moving into their stronghold which is raqqah which is in syria and this is a real problem

because we've now got the added complication of the whole civil conflict, civil war in syria being really a proxy war between jihadis in the region and shias control sort -- supported by hezbollah so we have got this added complication. the u.s. are striking raqqah and the areas there. but we -- the only way we will see that we're really winning this war is by actually capturing isis members by actually destroying isis bases, getting rid of their artillery, their ammunition, but what we may see and this is the real danger is as this happens, we may see a mass exodus of european and western jihadis leaving the region and then coming back to their home countries or back to europe and, of course, with the european visa they've free access to travel wherever they want and already seeing things in

algeria, we've seen an attack in belgium where a french jihadi who returned from the region had actually shot some people at a jewish museum so my main concern is that as we start winning this war, if there's an exodus and people start coming back to europe how will the agencies cope? how will we be able to monitor these people and that's a real worry for me. >> don't we also want to be careful as we say this? this is being watched around the world and as we talk about let's be concerned if these european jihad dist s return home. isn't there a view that muslim communities need to be watched more closely and this leads to racial profiling in the united states. how do we all be careful as we have this larger discussion not to exacerbate that? >> i think we have to be very clear that we -- there is a clear distinction between islam, the religion, and islamism the political ideology. just as there is a clear difference between social and

socialism. islam is a faith practiced by over -- nearly 2 billion people around the world which is a peaceful relationship they have with the rest of the community and a spiritual relationship they have between the individual and god and there's no dichotomy between being muslim and british or muslim and european, et cetera. islamism is a totalitarianism and we should deal with it in the way we dealt with the fascism, the superior race and killing in the name of a country. islamism is very similar, but only the difference is that it says do it rather than for the state do it for god. maybe we should refrain this not against muslims and islam and tackle islamism and treat it as we would fascism.

>> thanks so much. 8:25 in the morning in london. we appreciate it. all right. and we are going to have much more on the fight against isis later this hour but first a suspect in the disappearance of an american college student is in custody. where officials found him. at lysol, we go beyond cleaning, we call it healthing. healthing is killing germs, and having more cleaning power than bleach without the harshness. it's being the #1 pediatrician test.

. authorities have arrested a suspect in connection with missing u.s. college student

hannah graham. >> the 18-year-old was last seen in virginia almost two weeks ago now. the suspect was found some 1200 miles or 1900 kilometer as way. jean casarez has more. >> reporter: jesse matthew is in custody this morning in the state of texas. he was actually found by a deputy county sheriff on wednesday about 3:30 local time on the beach in the galveston area. bolivar peninsula is where he was actually located. that is a family vacation spot where families go fishing and have picnics and there he was very close to the water. now, they are not releasing at all the circumstances of his arrest. but the jail did tell me that law enforcement stayed on the scene with him for quite a while and finally at 8:00 local time is when they took him to the jail, did not book him right away because they were questioning him. now, what's going to happen today is law enforcement from the charlottesville area will fly to texas and next will be

the extradition proceedings and someone who is in custody can fight extradition or they can waive it and voluntarily come back to here in virginia. but we cannot forget the heart and soul of this case, it is hannah graham, the university of virginia sophomore who went missing 12 days ago. law enforcement in this area is asking land owners to help them and look on their land if they have large plots of land. anything to help bring hannah home. jean casarez, cnn, charlottesville, virginia. all right. they are fleeing syria by the tens of thousands in search of safer ground. coming up the uncertain future for refugees who've crossed the border into turkey. later this hour, a brave young woman managed to combat the ebola virus, more effectively than some hospitals, all from her doorstep. >> reporter: so this it. you're done. >> yes. >> reporter: this is how you took care of people with ebola? >> yes.

>> reporter: this is what happens when hospitals turn people away. you became inventive.

you are watching cnn's special coverage. we appreciate you staying with us. i'm errol barnett. >> i'm rosemary church. let's check our top story this hour. syrian rights group says air strikes overnight in eastern syria killed at least 14 militants and five civilians. >> first time we're getting a grasp on the numbers of this operation so far. the pentagon says dozen mobile oil rangels run by isis were targeted. that's to help cut off some of the $2 million the pentagon says isis earns each and every day from its oil operations and trading this, of course, on the black market.

the u.s. says it was joined in these air strikes by fighter jets from saudi arabia and the united arab emirates. the uk could soon join the bombing campaign in iraq as well. british prime minister is calling for a parliamentary vote friday but david cameron says he's confident he has the support of the country's three main parties. mr. cameron did not rule out future strikes against syria. he did, though, largely dismiss speculation of any future pact with the syrian regime. >> now, i know there are some who think that we should do a deal with assad in order to defeat isil. but i think this view is dangerously misguided. our enemy's enemy is not our friend. it is another enemy. doing a deal with assad will not defeat isil because the bias and the brutality of the assad regime was and is one of the most powerful recruiting tools

for the extremists. >> mr. cameron did suggest on wednesday that iran could play a role in the battle against isis. the remarks follow this, his historic meeting with iranian president hassan rouhani. this was the first time since the iranian revolution of 1979 that the british and iranian leaders have held talks. you see there they're shaking hands. mr. rouhani will address the u.n. in the coming hours. u.s. president barack obama used some of his toughest language yet about isis during his address at the u.n. on wednesday. mr. obama called on member nations to come together in the fight against isis. senior white house correspondent jim acosta reports. >> reporter: president obama arrived at the united nations not to make peace, but to expand his new war on terrorism. in a rare appearance chairing a session of the u.n. security council, the president called on other nations to stop the flow

of western foreign fighters into the ranks of isis and other terror groups. >> they may try to return to their home countries to carry out deadly attacks. >> reporter: he told the new prime minister haider al abadi to brace himself for a long battle. >> this is not something that is going to be easy and it's not going to happen overnight. no god condones this terror. >> reporter: hours earlier in a tough-talking speech to the u.n. general assembly, the president urged the world to join forces to destroy isis as he warned the terror group soldiers to clear off the battlefield. >> the only language understood by killers like this is the language of force, so the united states of america will work with a broad coalition to dismantle this network of death. >> reporter: but mr. obama also took aim at the root causes violent extremism with a candid message to muslims everywhere. >> it is time for the world

especially muslim communities to explicitly, forcefully and consistently reject the ideology of organizations like al qaeda and isil. no external power can bring about a transformation of hearts and minds. >> reporter: aides say the president added a mention of the riots of ferguson, missouri, to acknowledge the u.s. isn't perfect. >> so, yes, we have our own racial and ethnic tensions. >> reporter: still, the president didn't win over any adversaries. moments after he slammed russia moscow's delegation was caught on camera laughing and syria's ambassador to the u.n. accused the u.s. of siding with arab partners that support terrorism. >> you cannot be a terrorist while fighting terrorists, this is why i'm saying usa needs reliable partners such as syria, iraq and the other secular governments in the area. >> reporter: what the president did not mention in his speech is what victory against isil will look like and how long it will take.

still the president will continue his theme of coalition building thursday when he speaks at a conference at the united nations on tackling the ebola outbreak in africa. jim acosta, cnn, at the united nations. >> the u.s.-led coalition to battle the extremists in iraq is growing larger. take a look at some of the latest numbers we have for you. the nether lands is sending 250 troops and several f-16 fighter jets to iraq to carry out air strikes and to train iraqi and kurdish forces. the belgium foreign minister will ask parliament to deploy six f-16s. these falcon warplanes can travel at speeds of more than 2400 kilometers per hour. turkey is another country that could play a key role in the fight against isis but so far turkish leaders seem reluctant to get involved militarily. many thought that might change after 49 turkish citizens including diplomats and their families who were being held hostage in iraq were released

over the weekend. still, turkey's president did not make a military commitment during his u.n. speech on wednesday. our becky anderson is in abu dhabi and joins us again live with more on that so, becky, why are we seeing this reluctance on the part of turkey to play an active role in the fight against isis in syria particularly given it is a nato member? >> reporter: that's right. the turkish president erdogan says he doesn't approve of any kind of terrorism that is carried out in the name of religion but so far as you rightly point out he has refused to get his country involved militarily in the fight against isis not even letting western forces use its airspace to launch strikes on isis targets so it was during his speech at the u.n. general assembly on wednesday that he urged european leaders to do more to take care, for example, of refugees fleeing from the fighting in syria.

clearly having a massive impact on turkey. listen to what he said. >> translator: 1.5 million people are in my country. we are providing them with food, medication, education. we are doing all this as the host country. what about support from the rest of the world? unfortunately, there is not much support. >> reporter: doesn't mean that turkey shouldn't be get involved. if you think about the situation with jordan, for example, there are equally as many if not more syrian refugees inside of jordan at the moment and yet they are getting involved in this arab allied coalition. let's look at this in turkey. it is nothing short of desperate. my colleague phil black visited one refugee camp along the border and got a firsthand look

at what is the sheer suffering there. have a look at this. >> reporter: people who have lost almost everything are lashed by the wind and dust. it is a brutal end to a journey that has taken them from their homes possibly forever. for people who have suffered so much, this land is unforgiving. when the dust and wind blows, it is impossible to breathe. take your glasses off, it is very difficult to see. and this is what these people have been experiencing for more than a week in some cases but these are the lucky ones who now have safety and security from isis. as the dust storm lifts, it reveals the exhausted, scared faces of some of the latest syrians trying to escape violence by fleeing to turkey. when they're allowed to cross the border, they're searched,

fed, given water. children are immunized. this tent is filled with the noise of children's fear and pain. but they're here because of their parents' fear of isis. 10-year-old ibrahim explains simply, "isis is now in our village, they attacked us and we came here," he says. "tanks, heavy machine guns and moretors," this woman says, "they destroyed everything. we have only our children now." as isis fighters advance through ethnic kurdish communities in northern syria, their reputation for brutality triggered an exodus. people fled carrying what they could tramping through the baking landscape to wait their turn at the border. in just a few days, about 140,000 desperate, hungry refugees entered turkey. this in a country that is

already sheltering around 1.5 million syrians from their country's civil war. the u.n. high commission for refugees says the burden is not being shared. >> we are doing as much as we can, but obviously it's not enough. we are not getting enough support from the international community. >> reporter: these people say international efforts to destroy isis with air strikes have not halted the militants' advances so far. these are now people without hope. 55-year-old habash scoffs at the suggestion it could be otherwise. he says, "you only have to look to see they have no future." phil black, cnn, on the turkey/syria border. we talk a lot about geopolitic, don't we and what the politicians are saying less we forget there are human beings

involved, millions of them involved in what is going on in this region. they are displaced. they are now in other countries, they've lost their homes and phil rightly pointing out the situation is simply desperate. look, back to the politics, though, rosemary, we are going to hear from the iranian president today. that will be in about five hours or so from now and watch this space because that will add another leg to what is a very, very complex story out here and in new york at present. it remains to be seen what he says but i think don't expect him to be backing any coalition effort above or on the ground in syria after all it's a proxy war there between iran on the one hand and saudi on the other. back to you. >> exactly right. all right, our becky anderson reporting live there for us in abu dhabi. errol. >> as we discuss this global threat of terrorism we do want to bring you this information

just in to cnn, british authorities now saying they have arrested nine men suspected of being part of terrorist groups and organizations. they range in age from 22 to 51 years old. they're all in custody in central london at this time and we're told police are searching at this hour nearly 20 homes and businesses all of this in the london area. so this development as people wake up there in the uk capital. authorities also saying the arrests and searches are part of ongoing investigations into islamist related terrorism and aren't specifically related to a response to an immediate public safety risk. so this just in to cnn, nine arrests made in london as it relates to anti-terrorism efforts there. >> certainly the whole situation, what's going on in iraq, what's going on in syria has the whole world on edge. >> yeah, i think it's also got a lot of people with their eyes open and people being vigilant

as well so seeing a lot more information being shared across borders and certainly understanding at the unga it's crucial to defeat this threat that everyone work together. >> and what's been incredible it's drawing in all sorts of bedfellows from across the globe and people working together for now at least and see what happens in the days and weeks ahead. we'll take a short break but still to come here on cnn, shutting off the oil supply. coalition air strikes target a major income stream for isis militants. we're back in a moment.

a syrian rights group says overnight in eastern syria they killed at least 14 militants and five civilians. >> this news comes hours after a new round of air strikes targeted the isis terror group's mobile oil refineries. for more on that here's tom foreman. >> when you look at the pattern of air strikes against isis out here you see many isis strongholds hit in many different ways but now the latest focus seems to be on this, areas where isis is accessing oil. why does that matter? because oil is important as a lifeblood for isis. if you look at big cities where there is a lot of oil production like raqqah out here, which has about a quarter million people that's not what these air

strikes are aimed at, not the big oil facilities. instead it's in the countryside where isis is running small, small portable oil refineries that they can somehow get value out of and sell oil on the black market. how much does that matter to isis? a tremendous amount. look at all the oil production areas that they are strong in over here and look at the result. these 12 refineries that were knocked out would produce according to u.s. officials 300 to 500 barrels of oil a day. that's being sold on the black market for about $30 per barrel and all of it combined not just these refineries but everything they have is estimated to bring $2 million a day into isis. that money really matters because that money is what's allowing them to pay fighters to set up their operations and hold so much ground out here. that's why it's advanced to this phase because of the belief in the u.s. government if you attack the money you can cut the legs out from underneath them and eventually drive them out of the territory. >> tom foreman reporting there.

we'll take a short break. when we come back we introduce you to a young nursing student in liberia who managed to save her family from ebola. we will show you her one-woman hospital. that's still ahead. re equal. at lysol, we go beyond cleaning, we call it healthing. healthing is killing germs, and having more cleaning power than bleach without the harshness. it's being the #1 pediatrician recommended brand. and sharing healthy habits in 65,000 schools. lysol. start healthing.

hospitals and treatment centers in west africa are overwhelmed trying to treat more and more ebola patients.

so some people are taking matters into hair own hands. >> cnn's senior medical correspondent elizabeth cohen spoke to one woman who ran her own makeshift hospital at home. >> reporter: two months ago fatu's father got ebola. >> he started with the symptom, the vomiting, the stooling. the fever. >> reporter: three hospitals turned fatu's father away. fatu had little choice. she took her dad home to treat him herself. within days, three more people in the house got sick and fatu, a 22-year-old nursing student, had to become a one-woman ebola hospital. >> i was treating them all by myself. no one around. all by myself. all alone. >> reporter: isolating her sick loved ones in separate rooms, her mother, her father, her cousin alfred and in there her sister vivian. so you were running all around the house. >> yes. >> taking care of them. >> yes.

>> they must have been so sick. >> yes. they were very sick. >> reporter: incredibly fafu didn't get sick. how she managed that will astound you. >> i developed my own protective gear. i bought black plastic bag, plastic jacket, glove, rain boots, long trousers, hair cover, mask to my nose, everything. >> reporter: so this is it? you're done. >> yes. >> reporter: this is how you took care of four people with ebola? >> yes. >> reporter: this is what happens when hospitals turn people away. you became inventive. >> yes. >> reporter: unfortunately, fatu's cousin didn't pull through but fatu saved her father, her sister and her mother from ebola. >> i'm very much proud of fatu kekul for the marvelous way she did through the power of almighty god. >> reporter: do you owe your life to her? >> more than my life.
