the refugee camp to get registered and processed. problem is, nobody here is going to do that. they don't trust the hungarians. they don't believe if they go into the camp they will ever be out. a lot of them are traumatized over what they already went through. they felt they went through inhumane conditions and were treated like animals. >> we want to bring you news about an event in germany. reports that five people were injuried what fire broke out at a refugee shelter there. it happened south in frankfurt. at this point it is not clear how the fire started with you reuters reports there have been more than 100 arson attacks on asylum shelters in recent months. countries such as syria and ethiopia were housed in that three-story structure there. two little boy wloes drown

with their mother are expected to be laid to rest today in syria, a country they were trying to flee. a photo of one of those boys, as he was pulled from the water's edge lifeless, has gone viral. there is more controversy about this crisis. four syrian citizens were taken into custody thursday suspected of human trafficking and contributing to their deaths. the very distraught father of those two boys says now he has nothing left to live for. he tried desperately to save his family's lives as they slowly drown for hours in the water. he has told the tragic story of how he he lost them when the boat capsized. cnn has more now, we want to burn you that some of what you will see is disturbing. >> reporter: two brothers stand close together as they pose for a photograph. the taller child is 4-year-old

gelup. the smaller one with the cheeky grin is 2-year-old alan. the boy we now know as the tiny victim in this harrowing image. the picture of him lifeless on a turkish beach has been seen by millions around the world. but that's not how his father wants it remember him or his brother. >> is there someone whose children are not valuable to them? children enrapture you. they wake up in the morning. daddy, i want to play in the water. is there anything better than this? everything is gone. >> abdula is the sole survivor from a small family from syria. in early hours of wednesday he was with his two sons and wife as they were swept from a capsized dinghy while attempting to cross from turkey to greece. he shared what happened with hi sister in canada. >> and the wave keep pushing him down.

those two boys, they were in his arms. he said, he tried all of his power to put them up, the water, to breath. and screamed daddy, please, don't die. and then when he look in his left arm and the older boy galup, was already dead. so he let him go. and he said, i will try to save the second one. there was blood coming from his eyes. so he closed his eyes and he let him go. he look around for his wife. she was floating in the water like a balloon. he said you should see how she

looked like. he says, i did all my power to save them. i couldn't. >> the family wanted to join her in canada where she had filed a refugee application with the help of a local parliamentarian. >> i filed a letter and nothing. we waited and waited and waited. we didn't have any action. >> in june the family was told their request was rejected. desperate it find sanctuary somewhere, they made their way here where hope has now been lost. >> i plan to sit by the grave of my wife and children and that is it. >> leaving behind the beach where a single little boy brought into focus the suffering of thousands. cnn, berlin.

>> so very tragic and our thoughts are with that father. he was grieving. in an exclusive interview, turkey's president told cnn's becky handerson he was with his children and grand children when he saw the photos of aylan lying lifeless on that beach. he said the west is to blame for what happened to him. >> we saw it, we were devastated. and we asked the question to ourselves, where is humanity. where is the conscience of humanity. it's a 3-year-old child. and it's not a first time this is happening many p children, mothers, fathers, unfortunately, have been drown in the rough waters of the mediterranean. only our coast guard since the

beginning of this year have saved more than 50,000 people. this is a tough time we are going through but this picture of course was what made us cry. >> who's to blame? >> translator: to be honest, the whole western world is to be blamed, in my opinion. >> the migrant crisis will headline a meeting in luxembourg hours from now. they are planning to intensify efforts to capture smugglers. the proposal has gathered support from some ministers leading today must also sign off on it. prime ministers of slovakia and the czech republican will meet

in prague. this crisis is putting the focus on the number of asylum seekers who are accepted by european countries. germany with a population of more than 80 million accepted the most migrant last year. sweden, italy, switzerland and france completed the top five. countries that received more than 1,000 applications but accepted the fewest asylum seekers included ireland, hungary, poland, romania and cyprus. but keep in mind they had fewer requests than larger eu nations. many dream of making it to germany and now a school there is welcoming young migrants and refugees from all across the middle east. later this hour, we will show you how it is trying to help children forget the horrors of war. >> we may be one step closer to solving one of aviation's biggest mysteries. next, french investigators say they're certain what this is.

>> also, next, u.s. republican front-runner donald trump said he will stick with the party no matter what when it comes to the race for the white house. diabetes, steady is exciting. only glucerna has carbsteady, clinically proven to help minimize blood sugar spikes. so you stay steady ahead. so you're a small business expert from at&t? yeah, give me a problem and i've got the solution. well, we have 30 years of customer records. our cloud can keep them safe and accessible anywhere. my drivers don't have time to fill out forms. tablets. keep it all digital. we're looking to double our deliveries. our fleet apps will find the fastest route. oh, and your boysenberry apple scones smell about done. ahh, you're good. i like to bake. add new business services with at&t and get up to $500 in total savings.

french authorities now say with certainty that airplane debris discovered on reunion island belongs to missing flight 370. the flaperon is the first physical trace of the boeing 777 since it went missing march last year with 239 people on board. we are joined with ivan watson. finally a definitive piece of evidence. hello, ivan. >> hi, natalie. that's right. the french say there's no question that this piece of boeing 777's plane does in fact belong to missing malaysian air flight 370. and they were much more cautious about coming to this conclusion. it's been more than a month since this piece of wing was found off the coast of the island of reunion.

the malaysian government was very quick to announce that this did in fact belong to the missing mh370. but the french, they took longer to confirm this. how did they come to this conclusion? well they say they went into the panel of this piece of wing with what they call an endo scope, basically a tube with a camera on the end of it and there they were trying to find traces of three sooerial numbers. then traveling to spain where they went to the offices of a subcontractor of the boeing airline manufacturers who make that particular panel and were able to cross con reference those serial numbers. that's how they came to the conclusion. as you very well mentioned, h is the only piece of debris that's been confirmed to be linked to that missing plane, that disappeared some 18 months ago with 239 passengers and crew on board.

natalie? >> and of course, their families have been waiting in agony and irate about information, they wanted to know what happened to this place and where are their loved ones. what is the reaction it at left something that they have that's concrete? >> some of the people we've talked to, some of the relatives have been encouraged a bit. some others say, you know, that's a piece of wing. that's not enough. i need to know not only where did the entire plane go, i need to know where my family members are. what happened to them. this has been a quest for closure for these people who have lived with the agony of not knowing what happened to their loved ones. we have to recall that this plane disappeared on march 8, 2014. it went missing for hours before the malaysian authorities announced that the plane had in fact gone missing.

and nobody has been able to come up with a real explanation for what happened to this plane. it is one of the great mysteries of modern aviation. so there are people that are still desperate for closure. some people who have great suspicion about the malaysian authorities and feel that they haven't been treated fairly and that they have not been given the truth, there does seem to be more credibility among the relatives that we've talked to in the french investigators, at least four french citizens on board that plane and french prosecutor's office in paris have launched an investigation into the missing plane. some people have been encouraged. a big mystery here. how is it that this piece of plane traveled thousands of miles across the indian ocean away from the area where the australian government has been leading a nautical effort to try to scour the bottom of the

indian ocean for traces of this missing airliner. >> so much hope that this is the first piece of what will lead it other pieces found when you put this puzzle together. thank you, ivan watson, for us. >> u.s. vice president joe biden said he would not hesitate to run for president next year but that it depends on whether he and his family have the emotional energy for a campaign run. biden's son joe died of brain cancer just in may. >> the factor is, can i do it? can my family undertake what is annardus commitment that would be proud it take under ordinary circumstances. but the honest to god answer is i just don't know. >> on the republican side, donald trump has signed the pledge. the republican candidate promised to remain loyal to the party through the election next year. this means trump will not run as

third party candidate and will support whoever the republicans nominate. new poll numbers have just been released. speaking with anderson cooper earlier about the numbers and the candidate who is gaining ground. >> donald trump leading with 30%, but dr. ben carson in second with 18%. jeb bush down to single digits and carly fiorina only down to 4%. if you're jeb bush, you're going the wrong way. you're going down. if you're ben carson from 5 to 18 percent in a m. can he build this infrastructure into you port on the ground at the ols when people start to vote. up from 26 to 30 in just a month. why does donald trump say i'm republican and i don't need to think about a third party run. he has the reasonable path to be

the republican nominee. his numbers are going that way. >> the poll asks about head to head match-ups, how did that turn out? >> interesting question. mon moth looked ahead saying, what if we get to a point where it is donald trump, versus another person. carson leads. trump loses to carson. will we ever get a trump/carson race? i don't think so. trump wins by 19 with bush. tr isn't it fascinating, that ben carson and trump lead, who guys who have never been in public office. >> a u.s. county clerk who will not issue same-sex marriage licenses or allow her deputies to do so is now in jail.

a kentucky judge ordered kim davis to stay behind pars until she abides by the supreme court ruling which legalized same-sex marriage in the u.s. davis said she is refusing licenses based on her relikon. >> religious liberty is not a sword with which government, through its employees, may impose particular religious views on others, more may use religious liberty as justification to withhold essential government services. >> same-sex couples heading to the courthouse friday morning could be given licenses, 5 of 6 of davis's deputy clerks say they will issue the licenses, some of whom hold her same religious beliefs. it china where it sent a signal to the world that its military is a force to be reckoned with.

>>. >> reporter: china's massive military parade in beijing delivered a very clear message far away to america. on grand display in the chinese capital, new weapons which u.s. officials believe are designed specifically to target u.s. military assets. a new ballistic missile with the range it strike the u.s. naval base at guam earning it the nickname the guam killer. a new anti-ship ballistic missile which analysts call the carrier killer unveiled for the first time. and high above a fly-over by china's new j-15 fighter. soon to be deployed on china he a own new aircraft carrier. its first. all this watched not just by china's elite but russian pred vladimir putin. the pentagon brushing off the show of force. >> people know the strength of our military. and i think it's safe to say that we don't need to display it at parades necessarily, for

people to understand what the united states is capable of. >> still as president obama gets ready to welcome the chinese president to washington for a full state visit later this month, china is increasingly flexing its military muscle far from its shores. chinese naval ships entered waters off alaska for the first time last week. at the same time, president obama was visiting. and china continues to mill tarrize man made islands in the south china sea. we came face-to-face with the chinese military there on board a u.s. surveillance aircraft this may. >> china's navy is going to be operating as it increasingly as blue water navy around the world. and the united states will just have to get used to it. >> the ceremony did not mention the u.s. chinese company produced this video showing chinese attack on forces very much resembling

american ones. with an overwhelming chinese victory. >> tim chuto with our story here. coming up, the little boy whose body washed up on the shores of turkey is making his way home it syria for burial. we look at the war who forced his family and many others to leave in the first place. we live in a pick and choose world.

coverage. i'm natalie allen, here are our top stories. a stand-off continues near budapest right now where migrants are refusing to get off a train they thought was headed to germany. police arrived in riot gear thursday hoping the migrants would leave but they are refusing out of fear they will be put in refugee camps yet again. french investigators confirm a wing flap found on reunion island is in fact from flight 370. this confirms what malaysian officials said weeks ago. the boeing 777 went missing in march of last year. 239 people were on board. the suspect charged with killing nine church goers in charleston south carolina could face the death penalty if convicted. that's despite apparent objections from some family members of the victims. a prosecutors says the ultimate punishment absolutely fits the crime in this case.

aylan kurdi's father paid smuggle ares $2,000 to get his family to greece. now he will take his dead wife and sons back to their hometown in northern syria where they fled which has been engulfed by fighting. our senior international correspondent nick patian walsh takes a closer look at hu syria got to this state. we warn you, this story has disturbing images. >> sir why's trauma rarely is this visible. so insent in death you can almost feel his face in the sand. smugglers an unfulfilled hope put him there. but his family was at first fleeing another morbidly visible part of syrisyria's spiral into

void. to some here in sprawling camps, onward trip to gross or canada would have been a lucky and expensive close to leave behind forever the abyss after homeland. when does it end? even overlooking kabani when the world was able to watch the brutality of isis launch car bombs on the borders of nato, the coalition smart bombs came but did not bring a war to a close. in fact, each time syria's crisis deepens, it is interrupted on to our screens and the world asks, when will it end the task seems all the more impossible. isis fighting rebels fighting al qaeda fighting kurds, all of whom have or want their own thief and that's just the north. regime on the back foot but still using barrel bombs against civilians and a brutality that

fuels the unrest and kills more than anyone else. a full two years passed since barack obama's only red line on syria, the use of chemical weapons, was crossed to suffocating of guta broke through the fatigue of syria. giving the white house's threat seemingly al-assaded to goedin world to stop him. he already tested washington's will to intervene again after iraq in the middle east pf huge scud surface it surface missiles against the areas of aleppo turned them into the surface of the moon. children routinely hit by shelling, designed to be random to terrified. hospitals in the cross hairs. enough to spur unified action back when syria was a far, far less complex mess. and perhaps now even this image

still not enough when syria has never seemed less fixable. cnn, beirut. >> australia's government has been criticized both at home and abroad for its tough immigration policies including turning back migrant votes and detaining asylum seekers in camps. earlier we spoke with david man with the refugee and immigration legal center in melbourne who says the country's methods are a cause for great concern. >> the price for these policies which have significantly stemmed the flow of boats has been to essentially inflictsi siystemat harm and destroy the program to protect refugeeses and resulted in practice such as sending people away from australia to

places like papau new guinea to be indefinitely incarcerated in circumstances that in many cases replicate the same forms of inhumanity for which many people have actually fled. the other point it make here is that these types of hard line deterrent policies pushing people back it access asylum in australia do nothing to address the real circumstances, the real desperation, that forces people to flee. all of those policies end up really doing is sweeping people from our doorstep in australia to dangers and possible death elsewhere. >> prime minister tony abbot is defending his country's policies and says australia will do more to help migrants. here is a quote, a year or so back we announced that because of the crisis in northern iraq

and eastern syria we were going to take an extra 4,000. we are in a position to increase our refugee and humanitarian intake. for those that make it out it a new life, they can get much help. a school in germany is helping student from syria, south asia and adjust to new lives. cnn senior international correspondent atika shubert has that from germany. >> reporter: a school in brandonburg, ms. albrecht is making a game of learning german and her students are eager to put words into practice. >> my name is aiden. >> reporter: just two of the dozens of young refugees going to school here. this is a welcome class for learning german, designed to get kids of all ages speaking as quickly as possible. up to 16 kids, one teacher and two assistants.

a lot of staff to make sure each child gets the support they need. >> they learn that they are very, very friendly. that they are very open-minded. they are very fast learners. especially from syria. and they are happy here in germany. and that makes me happy as well. >> nearly 40% of the kids here are from refugee or migrant families. students come from syria and iran but also albania, afghanistan, somalia and chech knee ha. some have been here for years, others only a few weeks. i have learned so much from them, says this teacher. and they learn from each other. they talk all the time about the different ways they get to school, how they live and what kind of food they eat. personally, i'm grateful for it, she says. teachers are sensitive to the difficulties of adjusting it a new country so there are home visits to refugee shelters and

field trips to get kids comfortable with their new neighborhood. the goal is a class like this. confident student speaking fluent german and yet there is nothing special about the schools. insists principal goldburg. we simply want students to feel as comfortable as quickly as possible, she says. we want this to feel like home and for them to forget the wars and conflict they have left behind. for some of these children, it's not home yet. but it is a fresh start and most of all a chance at a normal life. cnn, brandonburg, germany. that is nice to see right there. hungary's prime minister says once its country processed migrants that are stuck there right now, it's up to germany to handle the rest. next hour, i'll speak with the spokesperson for the hung garian government on how his country is dealing with with this dilemma.

many people criticizing the marsh tactics hungary was taken. guatemala sworn in a new president. former vice president maldonado is the country's new leader. the abrupt leadership change comes amid a bribery scandal. a warrant was issued for his arrest and he is thousand behind bars awaiting a court hearing today. the former president denies any wrongdoing. now to venezuela where jailed opposition leader lopez could learn his fate today. lopez is accused of inciting violence during protests that shook the country last year. the 44-year-old has been m prison since february 2014. when he turned himself in during public demonstration. if found guilty, lopez faces up to 14 years in jail. we're going to turn to the movies in a moment.

derek van dam stopped in to talk about the heat that is causing a lot of problems in the u.s. and even on the courts in new york. >> the tennis courts. you're an athlete, i'm an athlete. i'm a runner. you and i have probably experienced cramps before, and i know i have. it is a terrible thing and has to do with electrolytes in our body.

we often have those drinks that help prevent heat cramps. some had to be carried off the court. take a look at this footage of jack. he was unfortunately, again, hit with these heat cramps and muscle fatigue that's just all thanks to heavy work he's been doing on the court. and -- >> and the women playing for 3 1/2 hours. the longest match for a woman at the u.s. open. and they hung in there. >> and one of the women as well had to be treated for heat exhaustion as well. yeah. not great. really the best thing that you can do here is try to cool your core body temperature down as quickly as possible. and well it doesn't appear that he was fortunate to continue play. he today actually be escorted right off of the court. this is the seven diforecast for the u.s. open in new york and temperatures are still on the warm side. there is a slight dip in daytime highs but as we head into the

weekend and early next week, they rebound right back into the upper 80s. as we continue on through labor day weekend with the u.s. open, players and fans are going to have to contend with this hot weather as well. here it is the stifling east coast. however, weak cold front, bringing a slight relief. but we have an area of high pressure, bringing back the heat. bringing back places like minneapolis and chicago, well above average the rest of the weekend so plan accordingly. check out the western half of the united states. sunny and dry across california. what's new there. but what i want you to flts nots across the four corners. a an amount of monsoonal moisture. it sparked off a number of thunderstorms in the area that could create about a half inch to three quarters inch of rain fall but i want to talk quickly about the sandstorm that moved through the phoenix, arizona area. picking up dusty sand and

scattering it across the ground. can you see this roll here. i want you to see the footage so you can tie these two things together. take a lock at this. this is in phoenix and u.s. state of arizona. that, natalie, is a haboob or sandstorm. very hazardous for anyone breathing the outside air and also for air travel. they want to try and avoid that, as you can imagine. sand and engines do not work well together. >> no, it goes from sunny to dark. very creepy. we want it move on here to north korea which regularly fires off anti-western rhetoric, as you know. but the strange country now seems to be adopting some surprisingly western styles. from music that the koreans are now hearing to the designer clothes the first lady wears. here is cnn's kim law. >> reporter: welcome to north

korea's hottest pop dance. a violin wielding high-heeled wearing kim jong-un loving girl group. propaganda by the supreme leader himself. at this concert a long range missile launches on the big screen behind them. frenzied fans on their feet. music crescendos as the missile strikes a picture of the united states. north korea's age-old message delivered by women in a communist version after chanel suit. a modern powerful twist for the oppressive brain washing of its people while kim jong-un executed members of his own family he is pitching himself as an exciting young leader. >> he, kim jong-un, is a leader, who is a new and otherwise -- >> it is a calculated departure

from the propaganda of his father's era. north korea's only airline flight attendant ditching the soviet era un on forms and replacing them with this. the leggy outfits on the magazine. kim jong-un's very own wife, north korea's kate middleton. spawning fashion in pyongyang down to the high heels. but nothing happens by accident on the propaganda tv. no citizens on earth are as happy as us says north korea's announcer as kim jong-un takes a ride at this brand new amusement park p.m. pictures show him as a progressive leader cementing his people's loyalty. north korea's watchers say updating propaganda from this to something more modern, more outside world has some political benefit. there is some risk to the

regime. the ladies perpetually in praise of kim jong-un clearly got ideas from south cree yeakorea's k po. >> they want it look beyond the screen. >> a challenge not on the military front but one of human curiosity. cnn, seoul. >> and we'll have more news for you right after this. hey pal? you ready? can you pick me up at 6:30? ah... (boy) i'm here! i'm here! (cop) too late. i was gone for five minutes! ugh! move it. you're killing me. you know what, dad? i'm good.

a champion sheep shearer to give chris a much needed hair cut. >> the weight of the fleece was pulling on the skin. so in part i today double cut it and get the weight of the fleece off it and come back out with the skin so it doesn't cut the sheep. >> almost 45 minutes of careful cutting, this is the result. a massive pile of fleece. unofficially a woolly world record. >> this fleece weighs 40.5 kilos. 4.5 kilos. the average fleece after 12 months of growing would be 5 kilos. so it is quite amazing. i rec wreckon the sheep was about seven years old and never sheered before. >> as the media started asking us about the world record that we were even close. >> this is chris now. looking much lighter and apparently feeling better too. >> he seemed very happy. and the vet were quite pleased

with the kg of the sheep after. >> i just went back and looked a at him. he is doing fine. in fact, i think he's a new man. not only half the size but his personality changed. >> what happens to chris's coat? there's a enough for a slew sweaters. some people say it is too matted to do any good. but he is getting attention from all around the world. >> i've gotten phone calls from as far as hong kong. it has been mad. >> and probably leaving chris feeling a bit sheepish. jonathan mann, cnn. >> chris is a new man, they say. watch out ladies. see you in 2 minutes for another hour of muse news. we live in a pick and choose world.

a standoff on the tracks. hundreds of migrants demanding to be able to leave the country. >> responding to the migrant crisis. live reports from 10 downing street and turkish capital, coming up. >> mh370, a french investigators say there is proof this is from the missing airliner.

>> live coverage as russian sorites rocket docks at the international space station. >> cool to see. >> i'm natalie allen. >> i'm george howell. this is "cnn newsroom." >> migrants near budapest, hungary are holding up signs and shouting at police refusing to leave a train they thought would take them to germany. this is the scene just about an hour ago. the people on board fear that if they do leave they will be sent once again to camps. the train will stop thursday in the migrants were told it would not travel internationally. >> hungary responded to the influx of migrants by building a barbed wire fence along its border with serbia. in just a few hours time, european leaders are set to meet in luxembourg for more on the crisis. let's turn to fred who is live in budapest. fred, thanks for being with us.

it's understandably a very tense situation with hungarian security forces guarding that train. what the latest there? >> reporter: yeah, i mean, it certainly is a very tense situation here, george. what the hungarian authorities have done is sort of tried it block the view that we have here of that train. if we just pan over there, you can see that only if we zoom into the area between those two carriages can you actually see what is going on on the other side. that's the train where the refugees are hold up. it is a tense situation between them and security forces. what is going on is they've been refusing food and water. we saw something like that last night when at some point very late in the night the hungarian authorities brought food here and water and well as well as there was sort of a small little makeshift demonstration that took place among the migrants where they were chanting no food, no food. we have seen them hold up card.

in camp, in food, no water. clearly they are refusing everything at this point in time. we can hear them shouting again no camp, in camp. they don't want to go to the camps. you're absolutely right, the standoff is the fact they want it strain to continue to the border between austria an hungary so they can disembark and try to get into austria and ultimately their goal is germany. that's something that hungarian government said it was not going to happen. they have told these migrants they should go into buses which are actually standing outside the railway station and then they would be brought to a camp to then be processed there so they could seek asylum there. that's something that the migrants don't want to do buzz they say they've been treated badly so far here in this country. many between hungary and serbia were made it wait for a very long time with no food and water there. and they say the conditions here simply haven't been up to standard at all.

this is a very tense standoff and one that continues through the night. thief been here now for i would say almost 20 hours and understandably we can see a little bit here through the train cars that you know, the children are very weak. children obviously in very difficult conditions and very cold here overnight. so very tense situation but also one where you can feel that the nerves of the people, they are starting to show. they are getting frustrated at the situation here, george. >> and fred, as you mentioned, many of the same people, these are the same people that train station in budapest who waited for so long. after all they've been through, they are refusing food and water in protest? >> yeah. yeah. they certainly are. at least that what we're hearing. that's what they are say as they say no food, no water. we have heard from our own arwa damon who was on the train into the early morning hours, that

people were refusing food. the children were eating and getting water. but by and large, the people on the train, not consuming anything. you're right, they have been through a lot. many of them for the past couple of days before they came on it train here were at that train station in central budapest where they were made to camp out there. no facilities whatsoever. very difficult for them. it was very -- [ inaudible ] >> i've losted from's shot there. but again, fred telling authorities are trying to block the view of the train with migrants on the train, refusing to get off the train. and protesting, not taking food or water, demanding that train move forward. we will stay in touch with fred and continue to follow the story. >> more now from hungry. hungary's government spokesperson joins us live via skype from budapest. we thank you, sir, for joining us. the world has been seeing video

of this situation we've just been talking about. these migrant families are desperate, exhausted. they have escaped war and isis brutality yet are receiving harsh treatment from your country. some are asking, where's the humanity. what would you say to that? >> marsh treatment is simply not true. the problem is you are witnessing a couple of thousand of people desperately wanting to go to germany because they've been told they are free to go. while we face 2,000, 3,000 people a day arriving it hungary illegally. what we are trying to provide, giving shelter to all arriving to hungary. but it is not their choice. it is impossible. that hungary institutionalizes say the eastern railway station as a refugee camp while we have the temporary shelters all around the country like in all european countries. what we see here is basically the complete lack of compliance with rules and regulations that

apply obviously to illegal migrants. >> but the people on the train, they were worried when the media was sent away. our reporter there, live, said the media has been blocked from seeing what is going on. the people want to get to germany. your can untry said this is germany's problem so why not let them go? >> because it is impossible. that's not -- it is not the choice of an illegal migrant to decide where he or she would like to go. even family. there are procedures, protocols all european nations have to follow. that's again, is very sad it see that, the complete lack of compliance would lead to this kind of scenery. again, it proves the quality of hungarian police, we pass without any kind of atrocity. you show pictures of family lying on the rail. it turned out that the guy, so

desperate, thrown his wife and kid on the railway. and jumped after them. and police were trying to save them, just the opposite of what the international media was trying to suggest. so i'm afraid this is something that which is surpassing the kind of -- and what is required is the minimal amount of hungarian authority. we are handling 2,000, 3,000 people a day coming across our southern borders. again we have reached a hundred thousand this year. hundreds of people you are witnessing in beach camp and other stations is just one minor element, i'm sorry to say, of what we are facing at the moment. >> david cameron said european countries have a moral responsibility to help these people. we certainly know the eu needs a unified cohesive strategy here to deal with this. do you think that's achievable? the near future?

>> we have moral imperative and there can be no questiones about that. and to find proper answer is to defend borders of europe. without reestablishing border control and without establishing principle and discipline, it is not going to work. take a look at what is happening in the western, there are countries which are simply not doing anything to stop the flow of illegal migrants so they aren't fulfilling on obligations to the european protocol. that's why we ask germany to stop double language. impossible to send out invitation to and at the same time, require as it is happening in hungary, procurement of legalization.

that is not going to happen. the flood of illegal migrant is the first step we have to take. everything else is coming after that. >> what are you doing to try it talk to the people to explain to them the situation. what is the near term slulgs for the families that are terrified to get off these trains? >> there is no reason to be terrified. they've been told repeatedly for the past couple of days what the normal procedure is. they would be in safe conditions in a temporary shelter providing bags, clothing, health care, even the daily allowance that is coming under european regulations. there is misinformation all along the rail when they reach hungary that something else will accept them in germany but that's the same procedure from them in germany, too. they are going to be put in camps until their case is judged. that's not going to happen

otherwi otherwise. so in a european manner, universal principles is one must -- one first they have to comply with. on behalf the authorities including police, it is patience that will help ease the situation. >> we hope it's relieved soon for these people and the country can figure this out. we know that the prime ministers of your country and from others and the foreign ministers from the eu will be leaving in the next few hours. thank you for joining us. thank you. . >> now more on the syrian toddler whose heart breaking image shocked the world. refugees fleeing syria are enduring. the by's father hoped to take his family to canada, far from the war at home. now he is returning home to syria to bury his wife and two young sons. jake tapper has the story. but we warrant you, some of what

you say in this report is disturbing. >>. >> reporter: this image of his small silent body is too difficult for us to linger on. but it's too important to ignore. so here's another image. a better one. of the boy on the beach. aryan kurdi, anything but small and silent as he fled with his family. >> this is a human catastrophe. >>. >> reporter: some world leaders are finally addressing the human toll of this humanitarian crisis of those fleeing the region, a source of heart breaking images for years. >> we need to ensure people are treated correctly, with dignity, with the rights they have coming to them. >> kurdi was traveling with his 4-year-old brother and parent in a small dinghy from turkey to

greece. it was their third attempt to dros into europe where thousands are blocked by barriers. >> it's about making decisions a enthose decisions must be made by the international community. >> my grants are dying as their fates lie in the hands of politicians overwhelmed by their masses and by politics. and by seemingly cold indifference. in countries such as hungary whose leaders seem to have forgotten its own refugee crises in 1956, these desperate families aren't welcome. why you have to go to turkey to euro? turkey is a safe country. stay there. >> aryan's father says a boat from turkey to greece abandoned them and swam to shore when waves got rough. after they capsized, abdullah said i tried to reach for my

wife and children. i was in the water for 20 minutes. 8 children and 4 adults drown, including arwan, and his brother and mother. abdullah told cnn everything i was dreaming of is gone. be a dull why's sister who lives in canada had been second him money to help his family flee to europe. >> i shouldn't send you the money to go. >> she and relatives knew the journey was risky. >> his wife told me, i'm so scared of the water. i department know how to swim. >> but the tan danger is outweighed by desperation and thousandis will continue to seek refuge in safer lands if only they could be accepted. >> i don't want any family to drown any more. i don't want it see it. >> jake tapper, cnn, washington. >> the crisis is putting a focus on the number of asylum seekers

accepted by european countries. >> germany, which i was just talking about with our guest with more than 80 million people accepted the largest number of migrants last year, sweden, italy, switzerland and france also in the top five. >> ireland, hungary, poland, romania and cyprus are accepting asylum rates. they have fewer requests than the larger nations. britain may revisit its policy for how many migrants it takes in. david cameron says he he was moved by that image. the syrian toddler who drown and he said quote britain is a moral nation and we will fulfill our moral responsibilities. nic robertson joins now live from downing street, nic, good to have you with us. british prime minister is under more appreciate are you're to do more in sharing the

responsibility with other european nations now. >> not just for the head lins here, the highlight of the death of that young by and his brother and mother, but under pressure from european leaders to do more. this is pressure that david cameron finds hard to resist at the moment. on the one hand he is trying to repair britain for a referendum on whether or not it should remain part of the european union. that's next year. to achieve that and to get his political goals there, he needs, if you will, to keep the european leaders like angela merkel and president of france, he needs to keep them sweet if you will. because for his own political reasons here, he needs to negotiate better -- better terms of the european employment law is here. this has all come about because of domestically here in the uk and over the migrant issue. many people in britain feel that there are too many migrants in britain. the party that came in third in

the last elections in terms of number of votes you kept, won 4 million votes on that issue alone. david cameron has two competing pressures. to be tough on migration, yet to accept that he does, as he says, the country has a moral responsibility and with european leaders. if you go back to the beginning of the week he was focussing the issue as something that needed to be resolved in the country's where the problems began. this is what he said. >> we need a comprehensive solution. new government in libya. we need to deal with the problems in sir why. i would say the people responsible for these terrible scenes we see, people most responsible, president in sir why and butchers of isil and criminal gangs that are running this terrible trade on people. we have to be as tough on them at the same time. >> so you can see in part what david cameron here is doing. he says it is not the problem

here in europe, it starts somewhere else. but it does seem he will potentially raise the number of asylum. f people that can seek and get help. people are feeling pressure towards migrants at the moment and at the same time that pressure from other european leaders p. >> raising the number of people that country takes in but again as you point out, prime minister walking a very fine line and interesting to see how the so-called brexit would come in to play with this. thank you so much for your reporting there. >> and coming up here, confirmation, french officials say a wing flap is from missing flight 370. the latest on that in a minute. >> a county clerk stands her ground and end up in custody. for not giving marriage licenses to same-sex couples. we stop arthritis pain,

so you don't have to stop. tylenol® 8hr arthritis pain has two layers of pain relief. the first is fast. the second lasts all day. we give you your day back. what you do with it is up to you. tylenol®. bill's got a very tough 13lie here...... looks like we have some sort of sea monster in the water hazard here. i believe that's a "kraken", bruce. it looks like he's going to go with a nine iron. that may not be enough club... well he's definitely going to lose a stroke on this hole. if you're a golf commentator, you whisper. it's what you do. if you want to save fifteen percent or more on car insurance, you switch to geico. it's what you do. this golf course is electric...

welcome back. same-sex couples could start getting marriage licenses in kentucky. the county clerk who had been refusing to issue the licenses,

she is now in jail. a federal judge ordered kim davis behind bars until she abides by the supreme court order. the rule chg legalized same-sex marriage. >> she is refusing on her religion and barred her deputies from issuing the licenses. all but one, the one being her son, say they will now issue licenses starting later today. we turn it france where investigators have confirmed a wing flap found on a french island is from the missing malaysia airlines flight 370. the flaperon is the first physical evidence found of mh370 since it disappeared last march with nearly 200 on board. he jerin is following there stoy for us. they wanted to get it right and

are they saying how they reached this conclusion, erin? >> reporter: they are. remember malaysian authorities were quick to conclude that the flaperon was from mh370 but french investigators say they wanted a definitive link. so they took a tool, which has a camera and light attached to it, to search inside the flaperon and inside the flaperon they located three numbers that they were able to trace back to a subcontractor in spain. that subcontractor responsible for helping to make boeing 777 flaperons. now they were able then to link one of those numbers now they say definitively to mh370. initially a source close to the investigation told cnn that that subcontractor said they had insufficient records to be able to do that but we understand from the french prosecution's

office in a press release yesterday saying that a team of french investigators actually went to spain and found this definitive link which of course provides with a new degree of certainty regarding the flaperon ann as well as helping to solve really one of the greatest mysteries of modern aviation history. >> absolutely one piece. hopefully there will be more for families trying to make sense of it. >> turkey's prime minister is blaming the west for the ongoing migrant crisis. you'll here more from him next. >> for weeks people have been asking whether did not altd trump will stick with the republican party if he doesn't get the nomination. he gives his answer it that.

a warm welcome back to our viewers here in the united states and around the world. you're watching "cnn newsroom." good to have you with us. here are our top stories. >> standoff near budapest right now. [ inaudible ]

four syrians were taken into custody, for contributing to their deaths. a woman has been jailed for contempt of court for refusing to give same-sex marriages. a judge ordered kim davis to stay in custody until she complies with united states supreme court ruling legalizing same-sex marriage. davis said she opposes guy marriage on quote god's authority. >> i want to give you a very interesting view of something we're keeping a very close eye on very far away. these are live pictures from the international space station where three-member space crew is about to begin a very delicate docking maneuver. >> this particular mission is full of firsts for the international space station. let's bring in a senior writer from space.com.

hi, mike, thanks for being with us. >> sure. >> we always like news from outerspace and good old docking. tell us what we're about to see here. >> what we're about to see is a spacecraft, russian spacecraft, not to dock to the iss. it will dock with the space station in about 10 minutes probably. and yeah, if all goes according to plan, it will just saddle up to the space station automatically using onboard radar and just latch on and it will start flying around earth with the space station. >> this is routine. this happens a lot. but it is always -- it looks easy but it's certainly not. remind us how fast the space station is moving. >> fast. about 17,000 miles an hour around the earth. to actually just rendezvous with that and saddle up to it, when you see them next to each other it looks like neither is moving because they are flying in

tandem so perfectly but both are going about 17,000 miles an hour an they have to be so perfectly matched up for this to work. >> they are talking to each either right now? >> yeah. and mission control is keeping an eye on everything. it should just go automatically with the instruments taking care of everything but if something g goes wrong then they he can take over manually and did it that way. >> this is considered a taxi service. sometimes it is just garbage pick-up or something. there is a lot of human cargo. and it'll be crowded on the space station. how many will be there? >> yeah. this is unusual. there are already six people aboard the space station which is full compliment that's what it usually has. just look the maximum. but there are going to be nine on there for the next ten days. because it's all tied to the

fact there's a year-long mission going on right now. this particular soyuz this that that is docking, one needs to come back down this coming march. so this is an unusual mission and yeah, it is tied to this year-long mission with nasa and it is like the space station right now. >> it will happen in about 10 minutes. perhaps we will see it happen there live. we will get back to it if it does. mike wall, thank you. >> thank you. >> we'll take a quick break and be back.

welcome back. returning to our top story. very few countries in europe are unaffected by the migrapt crisis and it is hard to wrap your head around the severity without seeing these numbers. more than 347,000 migrants have crossed the mediterranean as of

september 3rd, this is according to the u.n. >> just staggering. another 115,000 in italy and nearly 2,000 in spain. the number of deaths at sea, also at record levels with more than 2700 reported dead or missing to date. >> so who's to blame for this deepening crisis? turkey's prime minister is pointing the finger at the west. our becky anderson joins us live with more from her exclusive interview with the prime minister. becky, good to have you with us. please explain, what did the prime minister have to say? >> reporter: we sat down with him just after the release of what was that shocking image of aylan kurdi washed up on the beach. his family clearly trying to get to up with of the roots for

syrian migrants or refugees to get into europe. and the turkish president really very, very specific. he said, that he blames europe and the western world for what he sees as the object failure to understand the root cause of this refugee crisis he called the syrian civil war quite simply a human catastrophe. have a listen. >> you have accused europe of turning the mediterranean into a cemetery. did you mean that? >>. >> translator: well, yes, i meant that. i said that wholeheartedly because that's the reality on the ground. because the countries bordering the mediterranean, they don't

want them no matter the cost. but with our borders, if they want to come in, we welcome them in as guests. if there are those who need to be sent back to their countries, that's what we do. otherwise if we have the means to house and welcome them in our country that's what we do. that the reason why the number of he people if syria and turkey is in excess of 2 million as we speak. for instance, greece, italy, spain, and other countries including france, hungary, well they could easily dot same thing. unfortunately it hasn't been done so far the same goes for germany. >> and since the beginning of the syrian civil war now in its fifth year, george, quoting those trying to get into

you'ron, syrian migrants trying to get away from the war, but just consider what has been going on in this region. we are talking upwards of 2 million syrian refugees being accommodated by turkey at a cost of over $2.5 billion. then consider lebanon, another million. then jordan, $685,000. so to a certain extent those figures for europe are relatively low when you consider there are more than 500 million people living across the european space. things here are absolutely desperate. the impact of refugees and migrants for the infrastructure for the countries in the middle east is quite shocking and yet they are being accommodated. and the story here really is, the shock that regional leaders have felt. as they watch the crisis emerge

as of late. >> five years into syrian civil war with no clear solution inside. i was talking to the turkish president about what he sees as short term solution. he has always said that the removal of president al-assad will begin the process of renewal we all know the syrians quite recently signed up to the international coalition for air strikes against isis in syria. also it has to be said, the turks bombing kurds in iraq and in syria. they see them as providing a sort of, the seeds of domestic terrorism here. there is a domestic terrorism issue in and of itself for turkey to dell with and this international story which is sitting right on their borders. meantime, abdullah, kurdi, father of this young boy plus

his other son, his wife, their bodies to istanbul over night and he will take their bodies on to southeast turkey today where he will try to cross into kabani in syria where the family is from and where he says he wants it bury his family. george? >> returning back to kabani. becky anderson giving us the take on turkey. again, her exclusive interview, you can find more of that on cnn.com. thank you. >> sure hope that father has a lot of support when he gets back. he needs it. well we've been talking about the docking about to take place between the iss and soyuz and they have made a contact. we've been seeing some pictures of the soyuz approaching the international space station and the graphics and such. but let's go back to mike wall, with space.com. he is talking us through this.

and what are you seeing there when we see close-ups there on the international space station. how close are they, mike? >> like extremely close and now just waiting to formalize everything and put the hooks on so that they really grapple together and really lock on. once that happens, once they hook together, the docking has occurred officially. that should be happening any moment. i can't hear like any of the commentary nasa officials are saying because i'm talking to you guys but it should be happening any minute now. >> and how long once they do that, to open up the hatch and say hello and everyone floats freely around? >> it is not immediate. it will take about 2 1/2 hours. they have to do all these system checks. make sure there aren't any leaks under the spacecraft and like there are no dangers. receiving air tight and perfect.

obviously there are three people aboard so they want to be sure everything is perfect. all those checks take about 2 1/2 hours. so the three people cram need that soyuz will still be crammed in there until about 6:15 eastern time then float like into the space station and shake everybody's hands and celebrate that they've arrived. >> do all of these people that are on the space station, do they all know each other at this point or just meeting some of their new comrades? >> that's a good question. i bet some of them know each other. it's a small community. only about 550 people who have ever flown in space. if you count the dawn of the space age. they all train together. they all launch from the same place, kazakhstan. they all launch omni soyuz that's that's the only way to get there right now. it is a tight knit communitcomm.

>> and two aboard the space station are a on a year-long stay. perhaps they will be glad it have more folks to talk with. >> true. that's a big deal, yeah. twice as long as most astronauts stay up there for about 5 1/2 months. and that's a big deal. being away from your family, your planet, your own planet. being away for six months is a big deal. if you double that it to a year, yeah a big commitment. you're missing a lot. >> nasa has just confirmed the hook are in and they are formally docked. now as you say they will go through their checks to make sure everything is good to open the hatch and progress. what kind of research are these new astronauts going to be working on? >> there are hundreds of experiments going on at any one particular time. this is an interesting flight

because there will be nine people for a the next week. two of the people who just arrived will only be up there for a week and then come back down again. they probably won't get much research in. they've got just a quick tourist stay and then they go back. but yeah, as for the other people, they are doing a lot of research and this year-long mission that two astronauts embarked on now, this is international space travel and it is geared with getting a destination such as mars. that's what that is all for. so that is a long flight. that's about either nine months. and so, we want to know what that does to the human body and how we can best compare astronauts for that trip. >> our news is dominated by the world's ills, it is nice to talk about space and explore our future. thank so much, mike, for joining

us. we appreciate it. >> thanks for having me. >> ewe'll be right back. but don't get just any one. get one inspired by dentists. with a round brush head. go pro with oral-b. oral-b's rounded brush head cups your teeth to break up plaque, and rotates to sweep it away. and oral-b delivers a clinically proven superior clean vs. sonicare diamond clean. my mouth feels super clean. oral-b. know you're getting a superior clean. i'm never going back to a manual brush.

in the race for the white house, republican candidate donald trump believes sticking with the republican party is the key to his victory. >> he even signed a loyalty pledge. there he is holding it up. ruling out a potential third party run. trump made the announcement earlier. >> the best way for the republicans to win is if i win the nomination and go directly against whoever they happen it put up and for that reason, i have signed the pledge. >> yeah! >>. [ applause ] >> so i will be totally pledging my allegiance to the republican party and the conservative principles for which it stands and we will go out and we will fight hard and we will win. >> a new poll shows increase in

support among likely republican voters. monmouth university poll shows trump expanded his lead and is up to 30%. but ben carson also saw a jump. he came in second at 18% rounding out the top spots jeb bush tied with ted cruz at 8%. >> u.s. vice president joe biden said he wouldn't hesitate to run for president in 2016 but getting into a lengthy campaign race depends upon the emotional energy of his family. after the recent death of his son, bo -- >> the factor is, can i do it. can my family undertake what is an arduous commitment that would be tough it take under normal circumstances. honestly, i don't know. >> he says the stress on his family is his major focus right

now. >> can't imagine. >> yeah. >> for the millions of star wars fans in the universe, force friday is finally upon us. stores from sydney to rio de janeiro begun selling the latest toys for the film franchise. >> the first "star wars" movie in 10 years will be in theaters in december. i've been talking about this movie, i don't know, for a long time. december is finally if the near future. we hear about the buying binge, what's it's all about and what they are grabbing and finding in the stores. little secrets may be leading up to the film. >> yeah. there were hundreds of fans waiting outside the toys "r" us in times square in new york. small line outside the disney store as well. people were excited about any characters from the new movie, such as this little bobblehead for my son. bb head, cute droid. all of those product went up

quickly. and captain, new aniville y vil played by a woman, those toys went quickly. people complaining about how they weren't on the shelves long enough. >> interesting that this is september and everything is very calculated, right, leading up to the actual film. >> oh, without question. is there going to be another round of toys that will come out closer to the release because they are very careful at disney all the toys that have come out pretty much are mostly tied to people we've seen in the two trailers. they did not give my spoilers p. one new characters, fin, a lot of people have speculated about what his role may be aej knowledge one, rae. everyone hoping she is the daughter of hahn solo and princess leia. so we have no idea who actually they are going to be. i don't think we will find that out until december. >> have you got something with you? did you make a purchase?

>> i did. i've got this bobblehead. a little bobblehead for my son and an old school millennium falcon as well. >> was it a hard decision what to buy? >> i just wanted out of the store as quickly as possible. it wasn't that difficult. >> was it as bad a a toys "r" us on times square the day after thanks giving? which i've done and regretted it. >> i think the black friday crowds are much bigger. this was tame in comparison. >> just little nibbles for the star wars fans. hope your son enjoys the bobblehead. let us know if you mind hint about movie. >> we continue to follow the migrant crisis. i want to show this picture that fred just host posted here to instagram.
