other sanctions. what we have heard so far from the white house is that sanctions will target individuals or specific arms manufacturers i feel the most important thing about these sanctions is their symbolic effect it could have far reaching consequences if a fragile turkish economy. russian media say deliveries of the s. $400.00 system will be completed by the end of the summer this purchase of russian equipment is said to intensify tensions between turkey and its nato partners. now europe must take responsibility for migrants in the mediterranean all that's the message from the un today it wants you nations to relaunch lapsed rescue missions that save people from drowning let's take a look now at the numbers fewer and fewer people are making the journey to europe by sea than during the peak of the migration crisis back in 2015 even so nearly 30000 people still arrived in this 1st half of this year there are 3

main ways to get to europe greece through italy and malta and further west through spain now the number of people traveling from turkey to greece has been steadily falling but it is still the most common route by sea an increasing number of migrants are making the journey from morocco to spain but that is still not a mass migration route and relatively few migrants are traveling from libya to italy just over 4000 but it's the most dangerous route over 400 people have drowned this year dozens last week in one of the rears worst shipwrecks. bodies of drown migrants have brought to the tunisian shore 82 people went missing when the boat sank on july 3rd. most have since been retrieved from the water dead

the migrants started their journey in water only b.-a and drifted into genies in waters before sinking. one of the few survivors remembers have a calls for help went unanswered. and i don't doubt that it is and i'm going to you know pins a pick us up in the water on the. boat was sinking. but they did not answer a call. on the. operations of fia the european union effort to curb migrant flows across the mediterranean stopped rescuing shipwrecked people in march and italy's populace government has shut ports to private rescue ships the country's interior minister says this policy has been a success. i mean you know i mean prevention is better than the cure and therefore we're down from 80000 the rivals in this period in 2017 to 17000 last year was just 3000 this year you know that i was called for you know what i mean. the private rescue organizations have been challenging hard line approach the rickets who was

arrested after she illegally docked the sea watch 3 italian island of lampedusa with 40 rescued migrants on board in the long term i hope that you will change its policy and that that will be a safe possibility for people refugees in particular to cross station so that some rescue will not be needed anymore. in the short term however we hope that the criminalization of rescuers will stop so that those who want to help the people in need able to do so without any fear all 1st time and channel. rescue operations were halted because the block was on they were to agree on how to distribute migrants amongst the member states so for now the private rescue groups say ships like the say which 3 are the best type to save migrants lives it's a. and in the u.s.

millions of undocumented immigrants are bracing for deportation reads this weekend of president donald trump has confirmed that federal immigration agents will target thousands of the estimated 1000000 people with removal orders critics say that may include those living in the u.s. for years and families who have not yet had a court hearing set the raids will focus mainly on criminals let's take a listen now to what the president said exactly hundreds of people know about the major operation so the word gets out it gets out it starts on sunday and they're going to take people out or they're going to bring us back to their countries or they're going to take criminals out put them in prison or put him in prison in the countries they gave for us we're focused on criminals as much as we get they came in illegally they have to go out ok let's find out exactly what all of that means want to turn now to stefan simmons

a correspondent in washington d c a 7 this is of course the president who prides himself on the surprise element but here he is announcing in advance so the raids and deportations that are going to take place what are they going to look like. all those 2nd attempts that ice agents immigration and customs enforcement agency agents will try this this weekend accordingly to the president everybody else on sunday why did they make this public because the word is out anyway and everybody was expecting it to happen anyway so now what happens on sunday what will happen is that ice agents will target 10 cities major cities denver los angeles miami chicago new york atlanta is that and that there will be going after families immigrants they have identified as being in the country illegal and they will be detained and deported what's a massive operation that you outlined there stuff on human rights activists say

that many families that might be affected didn't even have a proper court hearing so is the administration bending the law in their fight against illegal migration. i wouldn't go that far what they're referring to is the so-called collateral that means immigrants who are for example at the scene they're not directly targeted in those rates those are according to the administration only illegal immigrants who heads. a court procedure due process who were notified that they have to leave the country actually in february this year and who are still here however the major concern for advocates is that collateral arrests will happen that means immigrants who are also illegal here who are in the country who are on the scene not directly targeted but who will be detained find themselves in deprecation and back to mexico or ever they were coming from. even if they were in the original target of those trains now of course these deportations that will be

executed by other u.s. immigration authorities who have already come under very heavy criticism here tell us why. yeah this criticism is targeted clearly not so much on the ice ages are 2 words ice age and busy c.b.p. that's the custom and border protection agents they are running the detention center is those illegal immigrants or immigrants or people who were asking for asylum in the united states are held and as we speak there is a congressional hearing where as you remember on the 2nd of july 45 congressional members went to el paso to a detention center and witness that witnessed unbelievable circumstances and they are testifying today and there is a lot of criticism of how those detention centers are run as you know very controversial one. representative called those detention centers concentration

camps because women were told to drink from toilets there were no showers no toothpaste no toothbrushes available horrible circumstances all of that as she says in front of american flags hanging everywhere so that's where the criticism is hitting hearts all right stefan seamounts reporting from washington thank you. let's bring you up to speed now with some of the other stories making news around the world. pseudos ruling military council claims to have foretold a coup attempt by members of the army and intelligence services well it's said to have taken place during final talks on a power sharing deal between the council and civilian activists sudan has been the scene of mass protests since its former dictator was toppled back in april. police in afghanistan say child suicide bomber blew himself up at a wedding killing at least 5 people and injuring 11 others the dirt include

now the picture behind me might look like twigs or roots of some kind but they are in fact caterpillars which died after becoming infected by a fungus they are billed as the world's most expensive fungus and there is a huge demand in traditional chinese medicine for caterpillar fungus but climate change is severely affecting supply. inching high spring is the time when these court aseptic years are most busy. the precious fungus is like gold in the kingdom of plants highly sought after in traditional chinese medicine. margin cho is one of the forgers the stop is vital to his family's income. attenders a good job summer courtis ups are becoming harder to find this year his income's

been cut by more than half. the lots of cord usurps in the past but now the climate has become warmer and warmer we do find so many. we're worried about the future. of the. court only thrive in called soil at around 5 degrees celsius warmer temperatures have made the area less hospitable for their growth. today mom has to climb up to $4500.00 metres for the harvest which is higher than usual but the fungus is still scarce. or didn't snow so the mountain slope is drawing yeah what i'm looking for is when i . get word that means of course that's all around. after long hours of digging the days still isn't over for foragers they have to clean the fun guy thoroughly before selling them at market here they check the quality of the

chord of steps they've found. and gentleness from the top of the hill has a thick of sprout whereas this one from the bottom has a very thin sprint when the temperature gets higher and higher the cold is up to degrade and they gradually become fewer and fewer until it disappear perhaps in a few decades. conservation you too hard. despite waning supply the fungus retail price is dropping due to declining quality. but customers still have to dig deep in their pockets for the medicine retailers charge up to $800.00 euros per ounce that's more expensive than gold. leaf image and with precious because the medicinal properties are very effective so right now people really like to hang it in their head matter that's what. back on the mountain forgers keep searching for the fungus customers crave but it may be

a losing battle if temperatures continue to rise. thanks to pro tennis news for you roger federer has reached the final at wimbledon after he beat his longtime rival rafael nadal in a mammoth encounter or federer and the dollar were facing off at wimbledon for the 1st time since 2008 and the swiss veteran rolled back the years to produce what can only be described as a master class or he won the opening set and although nadal fought back to claim the 2nd federer dominated the remainder of the match while federer will now face none other than novak djokovic shot in the final in a nother titanic clash of the world number one be to roberto parties to a goot in 4 sets between them the 2 finalists have already won 12 wimbledon titles. and in the women's final tomorrow serino williams will take on simona halep while the 37 year old will be looking for the 8th all england victory but she

has another even greater milestone in mind another title would actually put her level as the most successful player of all time and take a look. i serino volume's is on the cusp of making tennis history i already a legend and considered one of the greats of the sport the 37 year old has the chance to stand alone as the greatest woman to ever play the game i own i love what i do not wake up every morning and i get to be fit and i get to play sport and i get to play in front of crowds like at wimbledon not everyone can do that you know it's like did you really just kind of break it down and i have a great job and i love what i do and i'm still pretty good what i do i guess so. but she faces a very unpredictable opponent in someone to her that in the past self chasing her

very 1st wimbledon title i you know it's an amazing feeling and really excited and those are nervous because of this place one of the best moments of my life so i'm trying just to enjoy as much as possible and could be happy that they could go through the fight. williams can take comfort in numbers she's won 9 of the previous 10 meetings but this isn't just serino versus how that it's her arena versus history. she's within touching distance of equalling moggridge quartz record 24 major wins a record that has stood for 46 years one victory will do the job but she struggled to overcome that last hurdle since 2017 using a nasty as u.s. open and wimbledon finals i. needs to muslims to stand alone as the greatest but she'll be turning $38.00 in september and that means time is running out i now are for barcelona have made the biggest

signing of the summer so far confirming the arrival of french forward on 26 months of world cup winner because mine is set to join the spanish champions in a tray. as for werth get this $120000000.00 euros after they paid his buyout clause to former club however the price could arise even higher there's a cosi barcelona will have to pay $200000000.00 euros in total due to a clause in greece months contract. now a serene turquoise lake in siberia has become the latest craze for those chasing the perfect instagram image the no voice of brisk amal deaves i hope i pronounced that correctly for its tropical appearance but you may want to think twice before packing your bathing suit and your flip flops and my assured it is here to tell us why already clue is in what's going on so as you said there is this lake near

novosibirsk russia and pictures of it are populating the location page on instagram and as you can see behind us and on the screen is just this beautiful move it will lay doesn't it look amazing no it's not because guess what it's actually a manmade toxic waste dump it was built for a thermal power plant that's nearby too for the plant to dump its ashes into the water this gorgeous blue color that many just want to dive in is actually the result of huge amounts of calcium salt posits and metal oxides which is toxic does not sound good at all but that's not keeping instagram rays from going there and getting having their picture taken a course like i do for the gram this is all despite a warning from the russian energy company saying that skin contact with the water can cause an allergic reaction and that walking on this ash dump is like walking in

a military firing range of course this is deterred absolutely no one so we have pictures of what people are taking there we have everything from wedding photos people lying in bikini this person and a unicorn in the water this water has a ph a level of 8 which is not great you shouldn't drink that but of course people have drank it one person said it tasted like chalk another one said it was sort of sweet and warm one person posted a picture and said that she put her feet in the water and they turned red and were itchy for 2 days afterwards this is the latest extension of. people doing rather dangerous things for the sake of social media now the power stations management says they have closed off the roads around the area trying to prevent people from going there because it's not super safe but that has not deterred very many people to turn anybody is that are you to hope everybody stays set healthy and safe and i thank you so much greatly appreciate it. and before i let you go want to remind you
