this is news coming to you live from berlin the last migrant rescue ship in the mediterranean is forced back to the dock the aquarius is in the french port of marsay after its registration is cancelled it marks the end of an independent mission saving migrants from drowning on the crossing from africa will talk to a member of the crew. also coming up indonesia finally accept foreign aid after

last week's earthquake six days on the survivors are still waiting desperately for help more than fourteen hundred people are confirmed dead. and a german football club goes to sicily to help migrants integrate through sport we take a look at the king borders project. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us the last privately operated ship dedicated to saving migrants from drowning in the mediterranean has docked in the port of mar say equerry has had has has had its license withdrawn by panama so it won't be able to head out to sea again legally this is part of a crackdown on migration by italy which has seen the number of arrivals drop sharply but the operators of the aquarius say it's doing an important job for those still prepared to make the perilous. this ship has meant the

difference between life and death for thirty thousand people say its operators the n.g.o.s the west militarily launched the aquarius two and a half years ago the group says its work is vital. caringly there is massive confusion in the mediterranean there's no real coordination to manage the distress calls and lead rescue operations. the aquarius is out of action and there are no other private sea rescue vehicles operating in the mediterranean. for other ships run by n.g.o.s have already been detained two vessels lifeline and sea watch three are being held in malta the ship you vent to is stuck in the port of to pani in sicily all the boats have been to flag now the aquarius joined their ranks. before returning to its home port of mar say the aquarius transferred fifty eight shipwrecked

migrants to the maltese coast guard this after italy refused to ship permission to dock following a hard line on migrants from the for the visas announced the right time because it's the cannot continue to be the refugee camp of europe. this isn't the first maritime drama aquarius has been involved in this summer it was forced to embark on a weeklong odyssey on the mediterranean several countries refused to take in one hundred migrants aboard rescued off the coast of libya spain eventually took the ship now its future is again in doubt s.o.'s military has asked several countries to let it sail under their flags so far they haven't backed the boat. well for more now let's cross over to nick crew munya a key is on board the aquarius he's one of the activists on that boat he's rescue coordinator with the organization s.o.s. mediterranean a which operates the vessel so first of all your ship is being de

flagged what does that mean for the distressed migrants you're trying to help cross the mediterranean. well the day flying of the vessel means that the course is no longer sea which means there's no search and rescue assets in the central mediterranean to save people who are fleeing from the other not affected by the more people were getting stuck. now critics argue that your organization and others like yours are colluding with people smugglers and effectively encouraging illegal migration to europe the people who attempt the journey on those boats because they know you're there what do you say to that. migration across the mediterranean have been going for you for the aquarius was even in place but the reality of the situation is that people continue to flee from libya people continue to die

a chorus of mission is to to stop loss of life at sea by not being that people be since died there are we have reports of boats leaving vs not in the area but we have reports of another eighty five people who left for medical means to the east of tripoli i don't know what happened to those people it seems like european policy at the moment is the annals of the by gratian you have two choices be picked up by the thinkers got taken back to libya for instance attention and we know what the situation in libya is at the moment or by it and that's what you're going politicians and policy it has getting for the moment if you go into detention mistreated suffer violence will die it's a it's so you're saying that because your boat is not there more people are going to die at sea or there are no other boats commissioned by european countries or other organizations to rescue those people. committed by the european

union i could say the living cost at the moment is doing a full by proxy for the european union by going out in. i think people in bringing back those people. to detention haven't learned they're on the other side so should rescue vessels in the area of security life so where does this go then for for your organization and the other boats that were doing the same thing by withdrawing the registration of your ship they've effectively taken you out of action has any other country offered to let you register with them. if i may have. to go the flag ship hoping that we can. quickly. go. back to our very patient guarding registration but. can nick thank you very much for for that nick romagna ok rescue coordination

up that their loved ones may have survived. is the hope that my wife is still alive i pray god will work a miracle and i'm still hoping that they will find her. she is six months pregnant . many isolated areas hit in the disaster are yet to see any help the government at first rejected offers of foreign assistance that's changed now and the united nations and aid organizations are pitching in the task they face is a daunting one. of the of the situations that the tame described incredibly difficult it took them one and a half hours to carry each of the bodies out to nearby ambulances having to wade through incredibly deep mind. the sense from the teams who are working now from colleagues on the ground is wonderful frustration the indonesian government has mobilized thousands of soldiers police and members of civilian agencies to

distribute aid and restore order president joe cole we don't know has acknowledged the aid effort has yet to reach maximum capacity. every region has its own problems but i can see progress everywhere. now is heavy equipment has arrived. logistics have started to arrive although it's not at its maximum yet and fuel is beginning to arrive. it's been six days since the earthquake and tsunami struck with many people still missing and more than seventy thousand displaced soloway z. is still in the grip of an ongoing disaster. earlier i spoke to his boss in heartache in i asked him about the relief operation on the grill. we do see a lot of trucks loaded with relief goods we see and hear planes overhead air lifting in relief goods into the airport apollo which is now operational twenty

four hours. although on a shortened runway only two kilometers because the damage from the earthquake but there are still difficulties of course one of them with the main difficulty that actually delivering people getting it to the people on the ground there's still a lot of people also here in cali city that have not received any aid at the moment but of course that holds true even more for the people outside of the city in remote areas that are hard to read and some of those areas haven't been reached yet and there's also they're not only using. airfare for everything to lift in the good they're ok using trucks but the road up. west coast a bit of a speed too to polish city is dangerous these convoys have to be guarded to protect them from looters so there are a lot of difficulties still international we've spoken to some representatives of international relief organizations there on the ground right now it's that thing of

the situation to see how they can help. the country in indonesia was rather slow to accept help from outside from other countries who offered a apparently in asia is now accepting that aid no bastion why indonesia hesitated so long. it's not unusual for indonesia to hesitate when it comes to accepting international aid if you think of the the earthquake in limbo which happened just several weeks ago they didn't they didn't ask for or accept international help there possibly they want to show that they're up to the task and they can and they can do it and you know take care of their own people. i'll support and. for the politicians obviously but in this case and i think i have a paw and president but otoh with. several times two times i believe on the ground they thought that they can do it on their own and that they needed help from

outside and it's been nearly six days since the earthquake what kind of help to people in the disaster zone need most right now. i think. the thing that they. that they need the most ever at the moment is water food also and shelter people don't want to stay in their houses even if the houses aren't destroyed they want to stay inside because they're afraid we've spoken to many many people that put inside a house because there are still many aftershocks shocked and people are mortified and that's because of the earthquake and what what the theory and the other think if any but that's not all. communication is a big if you can be patient with us the down every city is still down that has to be restored and also fuel is really scarce and that of course ensures mobility and people have to travel at least to the next distribution center to get to be able to get some aid us in thank you so much for bringing us up to date boston heartache

there talking to us from palo indonesia. german chancellor angela merkel is on a diplomatic mission to israel today and what's being billed as a restart on the difficult bilateral relationship michael reportedly stopped holding regular consultations with israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu last year because of her anger over his government's expansion of q.e. settlements on the west bank the two leaders also disagree sharply over the iran's nuclear deal. well for more now we're joined by due to be a political correspondent hans bonn to hans there's been a lot of tension perceiving the chancellor's visit what are the prospects that we're going to see a reset in german israeli relations after this visit. well we have to see that germany still emphasizes various relationships with israel is a very special one because of german history because of the german responsibility for the holocaust and macca continues to emphasize that herself at the same time we

have to see that there have been major differences in the policy hasn't as you've just said to this lead to a constellation of these consultations last year so this is an attempt to restart that and at the moment the german side is emphasizing especially the questions of economic cooperation of cooperation in fields such as digital technology and so on so one is trying to say let's try and get back to business rather than talk about the points of difference at the same time those posts of difference are not going to be removed by the by these discussions. the one one agrees to disagree this is the formula one has fallen and pasta consultations and i think that will remain the situation agreeing to disagree ok so the focus of this visit is more on cooperation but as you say differences remain one of the main differences is how germany sees israel's settlement building on the west bank

germany's criticize that repeatedly and we're seeing protests in the west bank now about the settlements how much will this topic figure in discussions with netanyahu if at all i'm sure it will figure within her discussions but i think i suspect that this will be a matter that will be discussed before behind closed doors and that one will attempt to show a more united face a more harmonious face and public statements but in fact the israeli settlement policy is one reason why these consultations between the two governments has become so difficult in recent years and there's no question that germany continues to criticize that. thank you so much political correspondent hans blunt. some football news now in croatia captain and real madrid midfielder luca mode rich has been cleared of perjury charges in his home country mode rich who was recently

a german professional club has made quite an impression. i mean because you do horse time for me to soak in the rocks on your team so this is great for me to learn on the floor belly training has been brilliant because you can see that this is a serious football club and the people have real experience they're a great group and there has been a lot of dialogue between us just a lot of the gathering if you know what they did for the o.r. . the training camp ends of course with the big match. want to have. some power they have done their bit now the local community must carry on the good work they will help you to continue with this project to play for the majority much to the game i was disappointed because this was not correct for central defenders too quick for the opponent this was not fair. it's also now up to the italians

and migrants to take their new found bond beyond the football pitch. the old this. team is going to get before they even deportable is not the solution but put boards or is that part of it because if we play with dissociate the. many. opportunities of what the project is all about football knows no borders. business is now at helena and facebook in hot water again absolutely its latest hacking scandal terry could cost a pretty penny one point four billion euros in fact is facing that fine the irish state protection committee has begun investigations into the data breach and it wants to determine whether a face that correctly it hits you recently toughened e.u.

brazilians looks much different alexander coast to used to work at an international company but then he lost his job and with help wanted ads few and far between he started selling hot meals out of his friends car. it's involuntary entrepreneurship a common story here. the input here a little more than employment in brazil was created by that enormous economic crisis that we're currently experiencing just to survive the crisis people have to reinvent themselves that's what i did. i could stay at home and look for a job sending out cds all the time but with the job market so tight it's difficult so i didn't give up and decided to do my own thing it's fitting. that jobs are one of the chief concerns for brazilians with unemployment hovering between twelve and fourteen percent around thirteen million people spend their days at unemployment offices just like this one. who ever comes out on top in this month's polling will

have their work cut out for them. brazil's public debt has topped half of its g.d.p. . worker productivity is out is still stand and both investors and local officials have lost confidence in the government's ability to pay its debts. here being comic is going to have to rev up their efforts to make sure the latest their cars rolling off production lines are environmentally friendly that's after the european parliament voted in favor of a forty percent reduction in carbon dioxide emitted by new cars and vans by the end of the next decade denmark took that sentiment one step further proposing an outright ban on the sale of new pecial and diesel cars as a result clean transport options are in demand like never before and a few of them occur only on display at the paris motor show. tomorrow's mobility today or to money fighters are increasingly focusing on electric cars not least

because countries around the world are planning long term to ban fossil fuel vehicles. at international motor shows like here in paris b. car concept models are moving steadily to center stage. public transit options are also set to play a bigger role in the fight against road congestion and pollution the so called to get their minibus is both electric and self driving it's going to the roads very very soon next year twenty five of these vehicles will be running in dubai to connect the mainland metro station to the water while. the eye crystal shuttle can run at up to thirty kilometers per hour a top ranking speed for autonomous vehicle. other manufacturers quite literally have their sights set higher in the form of flying cars. models like this one from germany are still some way from getting the green light from the authorities however so don't expect them to be taking off any time soon.

now we all know that cars and planes are damaging our environment but on the whole far less is said about agriculture one farmyard animal in particular produces greenhouse gases in huge amounts in the fight against climate change we take a look at cows. they might look harmless but in fact they're monsters at least as far as global warming is concerned the culprit their digestive gases now the un's getting involved. they actually do both from the cows it's a little bit of the thoughts they contribute about four percent of all c o two equivalents of four percent of you know gas emissions when we look only at me saying which is that one of the greenhouse gases it's about thirty percent. a small business in switzerland says it may have found a solution it produces a feed supplement which reduces the damaging emissions by ten percent for cows according to the company's co-founder a million cows in the e.u.

already received the supplement something he's proud of so it is i think should we do the math one million cows represent a reduction of three hundred thousand tons of c o two today which would be so little powder supplement with your grass that way says the company even bovines can do their bit for climate protection. and our mind and all the top story we're following for you the last independent my good rescue ship in the mediterranean has been forced back to port the registration of the aquarius has been counseled by panama so what now be legally allowed to leave the french port of and that day. you're watching news from berlin on how to humphrey we've got plenty more for you coming up at the top of the hour of course the latest is always available. on our website that in three d. w. dot com thanks for joining us and see you again.
