thousands of desperate my wrist are trying to make their way from turkey into greece after the turkish government said it would no longer try to stop migrants from crossing into the e.u. but greece is pushing back deploying its nyla terry to protect border points or using tear gas to turn the migrants away athens fears a repeat of the 2015 migration crisis and is suspending asylum applications for one month vowing to return anyone who enters the country illegally well now many migrants who are tempted to reach the e.u. are camped out in the turkish border province. some are still hoping to cross into greece while others plan to turn back. they shout peace from the turkish side of the border. grieco 33 they stopped almost 10000 attempted crossings over

a 24 hour period. they fired tear gas to disperse the crowds gathering at the border fences from the turkish side of the riverbank the message from greece is loud and clear. but it's not a command that's likely to be obeyed. we keep waiting here because we left our homes those of us who have homes and whatever things to sell got money for them so they could get out if we have to go back we will have to sleep in the streets. what can we do we're stuck here we can't go back home. on sunday some groups tried a hazardous route across the river ever us with some success greece accuses ankara of organizing a campaign to push people through the greek turkish border. this migrant from

cameroon waded across the river to reach greece she says she'd been told to leave turkey and along with refugees from syria she was taken by pass from istanbul to the turkish border. more syrian many. many many people this is really is uncertainty. no one's. really good. but greek police who are waiting on the other side. on tuesday european leaders are going to assess the situation for themselves. tomorrow the percentages of the 3 european institutions the poly among the council and the commission that is president sali presidential michelle and me we're going to

get there to greece to show the full support of the european union as i said the challenge greece is facing is a european challenge and has our full support. with migrants stuck in a no man's land the pressure is on for politicians to find a way out of the stalemate. all right let's get you the very latest on this developing story to have your correspondent joins me now from istanbul good to have you with us. some harrowing scenes that we're witnessing today the news agency workers got a hold of footage released by the turkish authorities which they say shows the greek coast guard pushing back a boat filled with migrants so i don't know if you can see this but it's a pretty heavy handed way of the going about this yulia how has it come to this.

oh yes these pictures are deeply disturbing turkish authorities have shared the pictures with journalists they claim they with filmed of a boardroom at the turkish coast which is very close to the greek island of kos this morning now. a word of caution here because this footage is coming from the turkish authorities and they clearly have a political interest right now sharing such videos but then again greek border guards the coast guard they clearly have orders of absolutely not tolerating any illegal crossings they have fired tear gas at people at one border crossing where i've just been in the past days if used water cannon and i also got some information today that i think is worrying it's coming from local producers

in the area from fellow journalists and they said some refugees on a boat have reached out to them and these refugees said that they were intercepted stopped by the greeks coastguard guards then jumped into their boat took off the engine of the boat and dumped the engine into the water and then they pushed this boat back to the turkish coast these refugees they were tears. a 5 because they couldn't make it to the coast without. a motor in an engine in their boat so they were trying and get some help in the end somebody called the turkish coast guard and coast guard and they came they help the refugees this is disturbing and you know if confound these illegal pushbacks at board at a what be a violation of human rights and of refugee law you have but i do want to get the perspective at this stage in our conversation because they accuse turkey of using

these refugees migrants as pons against against them and against the e.u. to exert diplomatic pressure which is also quite questionable. yes what we're seeing right now is a war of the turkish authorities and that's hardly * surprising are rejecting such criticism one spokesperson of present edwin said criticizing turkey's refugee policy right now was shameful that's the word he used and then again is just renewing its surprise and add on himself just earlier today warned that soon millions off refugees and migrants would be headed for the border and clearly that's my interpretation here and i think that's the general interpretation this is a measure off the turkish government to ramp up pressure on european that governments to you know act over the crisis that in syria is it live and to also

share them with turkey when it comes to hosting refugees add on knows exactly what kind of an effect such pictures that we're seeing right now of refugees desperately trying to cross into europe what kind of an effect these pictures have on european governments in paris in berlin or in athens and finally the optics are obviously not good but let's not lose sight of course of the people caught in this border battle talk to us a little bit more about them who are the. well i've seen many families with children out the turkish border it's just been there. i've seen people from all kinds of countries mostly afghans people from pakistan from many many people from iran as well some syrians as well and these people are

in desperate condition i mean they have no shelter they sleep outside many of them sleep outside it's very cold there so they make small fires to keep warm they just brought a few bil'in belongings they don't have enough food they don't have enough water to drink and then just imagine i mean these people came to the border in the firm believe that it would indeed be open that europe or turkey or both would have ruled in their favor and then there realize that's just not true so for many there is a strong sense of frustration and bitterness right now in many refugees also told me they feel like they're being used in a political game. reporting a firmer istanbul's for you think you're. and next to the global coronavirus concerns the number of new cases of the new corona virus continues to spread rapidly around the world although reported cases in china have dropped

sharply over 45000 coronavirus patients worldwide have recovered iran italy and south korea have the highest number of cases outside of china with over 60 countries reporting cases well the total number of infections around the world now approaching $90000.00 more than $3000.00 people have died in an asian several other countries are reporting their 1st cases officials in italy the worst hit country in europe says the number of people infected with the virus jumped by 50 percent to nearly 7500 the e.u. has raised its risk level for the virus and here in germany where we are the number of corner virus cases has nearly doubled health officials say there are now 129 confirmed infections compared to 66 on saturday there's a closer look now at how ordinary germans are dealing with the threat of coals it 19. germany and the corona virus in

a big city like berlin the infectious agent might be lurking anywhere invisible to the naked eye but potentially deadly. so far there's no sign of widespread panic here of it's anywhere up with you can't protect yourself from it completely but if you follow a few basic rules then hopefully it'll pass you by but still it's worrying because although it wasn't the sheffield i just try to follow hygiene rules and wash my hands i also try to teach this to my pupils that's it really. personally hate it i'm worried about it sure i read the newspapers and listen to the radio you do have to stay on the alert. no you think it's good for you but i think it's really being played up ok it is dangerous a few people are getting sick. but they've had only mild cases. with the max planck institute for human development in berlin risk researcher gap has some clear advice . and sponsors are here to relax and try to avoid dying the

things you probably will die of. what insufficiently stuff to us is that would be things such as the ordinary case of flu smoking or people you see on the street in their car who insist on using their smartphone while driving and. so on the notes. but not always behaves rationally especially when it comes to shopping. a few people have started panic buying staples such as canned goods and pasta and especially cleansers and disinfectants. so the shelves might be picked clean. unusual for germany. because one day especially in our supermarkets in the section for hygiene articles where the soap and disinfectants are we've had shortages some items have sold out and it is also called here 3 of the constant reports on the radio t.v.

and other media play a part where suspected cases and deaths are tallied up but the 3 say it creates the impression that it's the biggest problem we have it's not. just us crews to quickly get it you know it's a long hard this is missed. although the extent of the coronavirus epidemic is hard to assess for now panic won't help. our want to find out what some of the other stories making news around the world. japan says it is working closely with the u.s. and south korea after north korea fired 2 short range missiles into its eastern sea a launch as were the 1st since november and travel the distance of around 250 kilometers south korea says it's on guard for additional missile tests. a hostage taking incident at a shopping mall in the philippines was and peacefully

a group of people has been freed unharmed and their captor was has surrendered to authorities all this according to the local police the local mayor rather police say the hostage taker is a disciplined told security guard earlier he shocks and injured one man. you're watching to every new secret for decades amid accusations that he turned a blind eye to the holocaust well critics call pious hitler's pope and they say he knew nazi germany was murdering jews and did nothing about it while the vatican says he worked behind the scenes to save jews dozens of scholars are in the room to pore over the archives documents and with me now here in the studio is you know his religious affairs correspondent martin gak thank you so much for being here these are crimes were kept secret for such a long time why and why have they been disclosed right now surely there's been a policy from this poll to try to have the institution grapple with its own boston

bus with all crimes or even moral transgressions i mean this could be actually qualify as both the vatican relation with nazis someone would fascism we need to link nonetheless the fact is. this kind of stories also undermine the moral authority in the political authority of the church and the more the things are brought to the 4th the more important it becomes for the vatican to actually deal with them so i think that in some. something that was actually brought us about a year ago and in a way this is really a way to show that the vatican under this pope is actually willing to grapple with that they're trying to come clean with shasta tell us more about pope pius the 12th why is he why is he so controversial the fear is really quite complicated he had been before becoming bo he had been. secretary of state and before that he had been noons germany so he had a pretty strong relation with germany. and the figure is in fact very ambiguous i

mean so at the most the most extreme forms of criticism accuse him of being hitler spoke generally that accusation is dismissed by move most of the academic sort of research and is taken to be in the more critical voice of somebody that did not do enough so to stop atrocities not only the killing of jews but also for instance the killing of got the poles. under the russian occupation one side the soviet occupation and the nuts of the basin another suffered a lot of atrocities with the pope not taking a sufficiently active role at the very same time it is well known and this is pretty much by historical record that the pope actually did help to protect jews not only in the vatican itself but in different churches roni to live in rome europe so dismayed seem a very very complicated figure which of course one would be preferred to be able to place in one column or the other i think that doping of the archives are meant to actually help to give. a fuller and more broadly more mature account of what the

role of this particular pope in the history of the 20th century was and if i understand correctly pope francis himself personally decided on opening these files what is in it for him well i mean this is been demanded for a very very very long time so i mean since at least the sixty's there has been sort of a pretty consistent attempt at trying to understand what exactly is that the vatican had done during the holocaust and during the 2nd or war you know. the pope comes to this from a very specific political angle he's a burnished in argentina who is art of the postwar period many of the people he grew around were people whose lives were definitely informed by sort of the events of the new mid 20th century and i think that as i said a moment ago i think that also a lot of this has to do with sort of positioning the church in a way that can recuperate part of its moral authority i mean if as a matter of fact we look at the history of the vatican and there is still

a shadow of a doubt of the vatican being complicit with the murdering of jews in the murdering of i mean this of course is something that it's extremely that from until to the political figure of the church you know way bringing this out to the open might help actually to a surgery finally put this things to rest it's a gamble it's a gamble we'll see how it plays out if it pays off to these religious affairs correspondent martin jack as always thank you for your insights. voting is underway in israel's 3rd alexion within a year as the country tries to end a political impasse a once again polls show conservative prime minister benjamin netanyahu in a tight race with center left opposition leader but he got us all in the previous 2 elections neither side won enough seats to form a government but with voter fatigue setting in many hope the 3rd time's a charm. he needs all the votes he can get fears of a corona virus outbreak could put

a dent in turnout but israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu is urging people to head to the polls anyway go vote go vote it's a productive this is a democracy you have a great right that you should exercise with confidence. things completely under control today we've taken all the precautions that are necessary people can go and vote with complete confidence thank you it's not just the virus that could make people stay home analysts say voter fatigue has set in this is israel's 3rd election in 11 months and support has splintered among many parties netanyahu has popularity has waned after corruption charges were brought against him in november his likud party is projected to claim only a quarter of seats in parliament polls put him in a virtual tie with his center left rival benny gantz. one group hoping to make gains is the joint list an alliance of arab israeli parties they've taken heart from recent polls. young today of we will make history.

we have at least 15 seats and we're getting close to 16 seats with everyone's efforts. yes our votes the votes of the joint list are the ones that will prevent benyamin netanyahu from forming a government and the joint list is the one that will make history at the. netanyahu may yet come out slightly ahead but with no. for a clear majority his conservative party is bracing for more coalition talks and perhaps more deadlock because now it's round 3 for israel's elections let's get you the latest time yet cramer did a correspondent is standing by in jerusalem time you're wonderful to see what are the chances that this election right now will break israel's a political deadlock well i think it's going to be a very interesting election evening because up until election day today all the

polls have shown a neck and neck race in the last days a slight advantage for benyamin netanyahu but also a neck and neck race between the 2 blocs because he is or you look mainly the religious right wing blog that by the likud party in benjamin netanyahu and the. center left bloc led by many guns and his blue and white alliance this is what we will be looking at both have been painting in the past weeks and months but it has been a very fatigued come pain but i have to say voter turn out got some think is during the day is slightly higher than in september so i think israelis really want to see an end to this deadlock there's a lot of patience you know to see that there will be a new coalition government being formed after this election and tell your prime minister and netanyahu is about to stand trial on corruption charges how much of

a role does that play in the voters' minds. well i think you have to come see i mean there are those who say this isn't possible for a prime minister to sit in a court to stand trial and at the same time to be a prime minister and those are many people i think who would go and vote you know for the opposition for blue and white there are also some people within the likud party but they're not such a strong voice yet but of course they have a lot of supporters that are. for prime minister netanyahu the acting prime minister there saying like he said this is all of which on this is you know due to the hostile media law enforcement and they're saying all these allegations are not true so they will be definitely watching for him no matter what did have a correspondent a tiny kramer thank you so much for your continued coverage. and as for
