crawl in the corner teach. them causing a good time this is where we are. welcome to the 77. am the in this week i am the i. am the. the atlas. am the arrow. hello and welcome to focus on europe i'm lara babalola thanks for being with us europe's refugee crisis continues on a beijing had to thousands of migrants are stuck in bosnia herzegovina living in squalid conditions the e.u. and human rights groups have warned that the makeshift refugee camps are a danger food and medical care are scarce and now the threat of winter is looming

and with no heating available at the camps there are worries that the cold weather will be deadly it's a path that sounds of migrants have traveled over the balkans to reach the e.u. but the croatian border is impassable for most making this the end of the road for many who have made it to bosnia herzegovina local and national authorities can't agree on a solution leaving migrants stranded and news ribble conditions and in the town of be hatched the crisis is escalating there asylum seekers are being housed on a former landfill and officials want them to stay put. at least there's a power generator in northern bosley is a blue check migrant camp so abdulla freddy can help those here charge their phones . that. are. hundreds of men mainly from pakistan and afghanistan have been living here for the past 6 months the site used to be

a garbage dump and now many residents are suffering from escapees pneumonia or other serious diseases which tech is currently the most perilous migrant camp in europe but they stay because the e.u. border is just a few kilometers away. they're going to their worldview today we're going to cross the bridge of our own to croatia and e.u. member states lies just over these mountains. so many times have you tried to get to the crater that hard. to get high and feel quite secure but remember the words and get to know these. people to the letter and the tradition of janet reno and the work made of it was never i think the vehicle is going to be sure to join you on. the other the police sent abdullah friday straight back to the camp as. the winter is approaching fast and that means there could soon be up to 2 meters of snow

a cuban so there's not much time left to try to flee it's money. it's an appalling conditions you know people that i didn't even went to you know having been. at the isolated makeshift camp was set up in the summer. up to 2 times per day levoxyl which has a tank truck filled with drinking water for the migrants the head of b. hatch a civil protection directorate is trying his best to keep living conditions from terry orating even further blue jackets and so has been left to itself as the civil protection directorate got involved to prevent infectious diseases from spreading in the camp to the tune of behind. the. over the past 2 years more and more migrants arrived in the area a growing number of locals have grown annoyed by the situation including employees of the hatches water works both had enough it's a tough situation for these migrants but for the locals to the situation needs to change you can hardly walk through town anymore without seeing migrants there are

more migrants than locals now. be had just full of migrants hoping to make it to the neighboring a year or. 2 years ago there were an estimated $200.00 now it's believed there are over $5000.00 and around the town. then last summer the local authorities opened food shack and brought them there. the church mayor sure at 1st insisted on the camp being set up. companies to stay open. we. need to choose between the people of the one hand and the migrants on the other but i will choose my people. for. each is now calling for a 2nd camp to be opened even further away from the hatch. meanwhile civil protection had lived back of it has arrived into

a check with fresh drinking water the migrants depend on help from the local community. food is supplied by the local red cross. the problem is that we have not received any help from the federation or the state of bosnia and herzegovina and 35 weeks. neither seem to care that the campus situated in a minefield left over from the bosnian war. locals feel they've been abandoned. bosnia and herzegovina has struggled to set up migrant camps elsewhere because of its complicated political situation a legacy of the bosnian war in the 1990 s. . the hatch's mayor had suggested opening a new migrant camp 60 kilometers further south understates used farm in a serbian enclave. for the people of serbian mayor de haan proceeds categorically rejected the idea of coquetry going by the border where there's

a resident we barely have any common assured agreements in this country to get them the others look at the turn of be hard to solve the migrant crisis this way but the regional authorities here in northwest bosnia want to take a different approach and then we also have republican serbska as well as international aid groups that's all things are in bosnia and herzegovina there's no coordination no common plan with. abdullah and the other migrants are stranded in the camp with nowhere to go. and the 1st snow is expected soon. spain is preparing to host this year's world climate summit in madrid and ahead of the event the country's president reaffirmed his commitment to a greener future but away from the capital an ecological disaster is threatening to destroy europe's largest salt water law gruen fish are dying on mass in marman or

in southern spain it's a disturbing sight that is costing fishermen like manual martinez their livelihoods . this lagoon is their life manuel martinez and ruben baca a fisherman by choice it's a labor of love they work in the mom in order in the south of spain it's the largest salt water look in europe. but i mean if it means a lot to me. it's more than a good it's a mother or whatever it is waters fetus provider daily bread. but the lagoon is slowly perishing a few weeks ago that fish were found washed up on shore that suffocated the fishermen the still kompany its. fish in the lagoon have never died on such a large scale before the fishermen seem to know what is to blame you know.

pollution has been a problem here for a long time and. it comes from the towns and from farming. everything gets flushed in samantha moore. and causing bacteria that destroy the seabed. which then leads to a lack of oxygen in the water and i wanted to fund that will put in a little. the fishermen have hung up their nets in mom and often now in an effort to protect the remaining fish sales were falling anyway due to concerns about contamination at the same time efforts have been stepped up to find out what's causing the catastrophe like the fishermen environmental activists are convinced the problem stems from the lagoons in that's. an unhealed one of their own say that water contaminated by novae use of fertilizers is entering into the good and for a limit as they are what both ground and surface water enters the lagoon from intensively farmed fields. and it's full of nitrates.

and fit but i mean. it's clear that the agric. actual sector is responsible for this pollution. but it's doing nothing about it i think that they're going to. test indicate that much of the pollution comes from the pond and behind the lagoon where broccoli lettuce an artichoke some grow some fields have apparently been irrigated illegally. but farmers like my northern martina's refute such claims he says more farmers are switching to more modern irrigation systems which allow them to use fewer fertilizers he says the real culprit is the weather. i get that i'm going to have a mental load the most. people have to realize that in the last few years we have experienced torrential rainfall. which in september for example led to large amounts of water being washed away from the fields and to the lagoon.

fishermen agree that climate change is making the situation worse they say it's precisely why pharma should reduce fertiliser use and they say it's a political issue too because those in power have been too lax with restrictions on the culture. regional government has done nothing to improve things. for years we've been telling them our minority is in a dire state. alarm and morsi is regional government says it's up to madrid to introduce tougher regulations. but use of instability in spain's central government have left the region to deal with the issue on its own. name in their minds not just the reputation in the lagoon the name of or of this region that is at stake here. what the stake is the environmental reputation of all

of spain you know we have to learn from this this time. i found the solution was number 3 about i'm going to have several fields by the time such a solution is found it could be too late to manuel martinez another local fisherman but some already planning to sell the boat might be years before fish stocks return to normal if ever. i don't know what to do i mean for my fishing is my life. and i've been doing it for 1314 years. my family is christy's waters for 4 or 5 generations i can't do anything else. although there is little demand for fish from the waters of mama north right now some fishermen still try their luck like that they too are struggling for survival. should scotland

be an independent country in a 2014 referendum the majority said no and the country remained a part of the united kingdom but now braves' it has reignited the debate around scotland sovereignty staying in the u.k. leaving that something that hundreds of thousands of scots have protested against while the country's 1st minister is pushing for a 2nd referendum in 2021 george ormiston ancestors settled in scotland centuries ago and the flute maker from stirling believes that it's time for the country to disentangle itself from the united kingdom. george ormiston says it's the wood that sets the piece for his work and that's exactly what he loves about his job he's a qualified engineer before more than 40 years he's been earning a living through his passion making wooden flutes. it

won't make him wealthy but that's not important to him. he says in this regard he's very scottish just like his family. the armisen is calling from a long line of scots could be traced back to the year 547 george says scotland is home and not the u.k. i have a feeling of being scottish 1st of all. but there are the same time have the feeling of being european i'm not sure i don't really feel gratified because to be honest i don't really know what british has. as i say they all their own you can give a name to something you can draw laying on a wall but that doesn't mean that that's what has an oscar people feel in the hot 2. during the referendum 5 years ago he voted for independence but a clear majority of scots were against independence back then. castle is near

george's workshop. the union jack of the united kingdom still flitters here demonstrating the union of england wales northern ireland and scotland. unity which would mean equality on the husband venus' equality of discourse have always been made to feel 2nd class well i'll give you an example of the scottish buying this have their own money the have their own pattern you know it and i went up to feel scottish friends but you know and they say we don't take foreign money and. so these are the kind of things like that so it's difficult. just south of stirling council is the town of panic burning 800 years ago the scots triumphed here against the english army an important victory for many it's the symbol of scottish independence even if the balance of power repeatedly shifted in the centuries that followed. the story of the battle is digitally simulated at the

memorials visitor center. like scotland itself the visitors here are also divided on which direction star should take we've stuck together for 300 years and it's been to the benefit of both countries and i would rank i would like it to continue nauset friend above all good nor bad that's one after the opening breaks i think i may be tempted to vote yes us time you know if that ever happened i won by and gathering up a little for you know. scotland's independence was the cited by the 2014 referendum but now because of breaks it the debate is again making the headlines. according to a recent survey there are currently more scots in favor of independence now than there have been in the last 7 years 50 percent. the scottish national party sees this as their chance. alan smith will stand in the

upcoming parliamentary elections he must win standing back from the tories his chances aren't bad not least of all because boris johnson and his brags of policies are deeply unpopular in scotland. we were told we were a partnership of equals a family of nations but then we voted strongly to remain within the e.u. and the u.k. voted as a whole to leave when we were told up for doesn't matter shut up so that is the election more the next little and that they're there absolutely link because of brags that we're being taken out of the european union against our will if we were independent that would not be the case. in a british parliaments without a clear majority the scottish nationalists could become kingmakers. they've already announced that they would only support a government if it in turn agrees to a 2nd referendum on independence. even if

a 2nd referendum is held george or honest and is not sure whether majority of the scots would be in favor of independence. but they'd be in the end just like it's flutes independence just it's time. time is also needed to heal the atrocities that took place during the 2nd world war in the winter of $945.00 the red army began its advance on berlin to defeat hitler the german village of class and was reduced to rubble as the very act tried in vain to stop the soviets almost 75 years later millions of soldiers are still listed as missing across europe one special association is working to give the fallen soldiers of the war a final resting place as an act of compassion carried out regardless of the soldier's uniform. swiss anthropologist. and italian student lauder trotty carefully removed from around the skeleton.

they're looking for clues about the age and identity of the deceased. they believe he was a young soviet soldier. who wouldn't cakes and dad were left on the battlefield when the war ended because there were too many bodies to bury up its they were often placed in military trenches or shallow pits. and covered with sweat. early 1945 heavy fighting east of palin near the report would have claimed the lives of thousands of german and soviet soldiers many of the war dead still like here. now members of the association for the recovery of the fallen in eastern europe excavating the old trenches. at the 2 annual excavations they've already exuma the remains of more than $200.00 soldiers. you're happy

because you find them but you know if you have a lot of problems how do you take him out right is anything broken so there is of course excited because you found him there is problems if you have to sort of as well. experts from across europe historians and politest an archaeologist are collaborating on this project. they do this work on a volunteer basis using their vacation time to look for soldiers remains one group of volunteers is from russia. and. we don't think it's right that soldiers who fought against fascism or german soldiers lie here in the fields and forests or in russian swamps. or in those neighborhoods and. they should be buried in dignified places in military cemeteries where people can go one on of their memory that. i'll push to lower the chairman of the association board in it's the work he says the fact that volunteers from the ukraine and russia did here

together is an important sign of reconciliation together they can give back dignity to the foreman of the 2nd world war. has been here but we are here because we want to resolve the fates of these soldiers who senselessly lost their young lives at least give them back their names with dignity but a proper grave in the name of this god. in order to later identify the dead the volunteers carefully remove the remains from the ground and look for dog tags or personal items the movie find the greater the chance of identifying them and notifying families that their missing relative has been found this rarely happens but 23 year old danielle hammond has experienced it once all us are tied up with the moment for. that was a moment when i realize that this is hugely important work for them. with their efforts and a few leftover papers that were lying around somewhere for 70 years the person's

fate could be revealed long. enough there's a 6 or 6 like them going for her. the next day the volunteers and guests gather to military cemetery to bury the remains of 15 german soldiers in a solemn ceremony. and it owns in the boroughs are always very emotional for us that's what we do this the goal to get the soldiers the last place of rest of that snow would betancourt and this is also the end of one year of research so it's almost like i follow the days there the all across their cycle from there emerges from the ground today everybody else and that's something quite powerful to behold. next spring the volunteers hope to return and search for more fallen soldiers. thousands more remain in the area undiscovered.

and everyone here knows that only a small number of them at the beach recovered. the eiffel tower was then and shaped wandering through the streets of paris it's not a prank or protest but one man's quest to bring more country to the capital for a brief time the french city is forced to slow down while the shepherd council's sheep. this is hardly an everyday occurrence in paris. but one that might become a little more frequent thanks to give yang and his flock of sheep. to the new people his young. so those who live in the area know their region least well it has a chance to discover their region at the speed of sheep i.e. very slowly 1.7 kilometers an hour like them at. the speed of sheep doesn't seem to be a problem in the big city. of course the group only crosses when the light is green

and the traffic police is there to make sure everyone gets across safely. that the sheep even find something to nibble on. then take a liking to the urban playgrounds. yet the. tourists and locals alike seem enchanted. but this is be the 1st time i say it's great this. time for rest and for lunch. and there's no doubt that the local children don't mind sharing their patch with these gas.

cuts take only a is the mayor of a paris suburb and the chair of the greater paris metropolis which has provided the funds for this project to make the area in and around paris greener. we want to double the area there are currently $102.00 farms on about 2000 hectares . 5000 by 2030 very ambitious though so there's a. the sheep are somewhat less ambitious as they make their way through the city i was out. even with its $7000000.00 inhabitants paris boasts a few green areas where the sheep can graze they provide free fertiliser all the plants are particularly tasty in the wealthy 16th or on the small the flock currently has about 20 guests shepherds some spending just a few hours others a few days. it's really interesting to see how animals can also find

a place in the city to see how the space can be used. in the said the move i feed in time. to heal meant to sheep live in la canoes just outside of paris. healthy fodder is important hey provides fiber and it's mostly produced without pesticides here. so gillum sheep are popular with some of paris's top chefs. leader of the school down who clearly does not there have been scandals so now the idea is to bring back some order to reestablish control over what we eat with us when think about what used to be done then everyone can make up their own mind has disappeared. after a week in the big city the sheep are visibly exhausted time for a well deserved rest. i. that's also how i feel after
