quietness on the streets here in the german capital the w. political correspondent kate bradley thank you you're watching day doubly news from berlin though when more news at the top of the hour with calm as men don't forget the website is there for all the latest that they w dot com for now though i'm anthony how that's what. every to anything is full of surprises moved on. to give you some tips one day in the footsteps of the great britain. in her. town the fleet street. car. 3 times i wanted. to marry much alive. chalo good guy to specialist southern

germany. recognize where exactly. was fun. car sculpture history. details travel extremely worth a visit played for. thousands of refugees are fleeing war hunger and poverty hoping to reach europe via libya. there are still multiple multiple departures they cross the mediterranean sea and flimsy overcrowded boats without life vests. or look for good. food and are rescued by volunteers like.

it's early morning as the ocean viking leaves marsay. aboard are 23 volunteers from s.o.s. mediterranean and doctors without borders they've been on many rescue missions before. they've lease the 70 metre long ocean viking running the rescue operation costs $14000.00 euros each day the volunteers rely exclusively on donations. nicholas or nick roman york heads the operation the 35 year old plus the ship's course other volunteers assist by checking news and weather reports and tracking other ships next number one priority to save as many lives as possible.

receiving. your shot look out for a potential bugs in distress in the area. for an already got v.h.f. or 3 occasions all waiting for the 1st loads from all over the border. all from. ready. refugee boats rarely show up on the ship's radar because they're too small. so the crew keep a lookout scanning the horizon. often traffickers deliberately misinform refugees what we've heard over the years is that. the instructions that people are given on the boats is to is to proceed north from the coast you can see the oil platforms that they have that the flares burning off the excess gas so those flares are visible from the from the from the land and so you can see the haze and the sad

thing about it is they actually tell people that that is italy so they say within a couple of hours you'll be you'll be arriving in italy the reality is it's not the case at all. frenchmen tante is one of the most experienced volunteers on the team . she's saved thousands of lives at sea already. we put a lot of her fortune what we're going to grow to conform with which is just about taking control of people's mind and bring them to follow our instruction carefully and close it and to consider that their best option is to trust us several hours later 130 kilometers off the libyan coast they suddenly receive a distress call. alarms phone a network that monitors the mediterranean has alerted the rescuers. next needs to know where to steer his ship. we have a look for a possible water both with knives or. more. already.

so while. the volunteers have made radio contact with a plane operated by the european border agency frontex they've got eyes on the refugee boat in distress. for war war. war war war war. oh for real. they launched the speedboat. even. with 230 horsepower they raced over the choppy waves are they ready to life vests to make sure everyone is safe when.

they need to ensure all refugee used among them women and children remain calm even though they're desperate to get off the tiny boat. they call for help on the record we're going to coordinate the girl really at the beginning we're going to take the burden over 100. villages the guys know what they'll call you know. really good. right. good. nick can only watch from afar now everything is in tongues hands. i don't know what the refugees listen to him and stay calm many can't swim and tang he hasn't handed out life jackets yet they could drown if their boat capsizes tongue he has the situation under control he's

experienced and has been on many rescue missions before. for looks good good for. the. club. good. looking. but. the boats must not touch as the flimsy overcrowded refugee boat could easily capsize. than the actual rescue begins. 1st 5 infants are taken aboard then everyone else one by one and. then the speed boat returns to the ocean viking.

shuttling back and forth until everyone is safe. now the doctors without borders staff tends to the rescue. they swap their wet gas drenched clothes for clean dry garments men and women are allocated separate spaces onboard where they can rest. and. watch our. way back up the rescued are briefed in english french arabic and other languages. a team of doctors checks in with every person. beyond. that. by. then they receive the next distress call over the past 30 hours the team will

embark on 3 rescue missions they save the lives of 276 refugees the volunteers work nonstop. but they thought by the author and some of them done that by the go to fly month about qatar's imbibing by the widely by the missing. $65.00 of those rescued are under the age of 18 many are unaccompanied most are from mali nigeria bangladesh and morocco. 24 year old michael is from ghana. you know was saying walls would watch what you very small. little minds we are. but eyeing you. all go about from this mood there was not this time by way down what i mean those boys here because there. is there are life we don't want i mean telling them to

michael like so many others got stranded in libya because of the war returning to ghana through the sahara was unthinkable so the only option left was to try to make it across the mediterranean sea. it's not easy. for him from libya and we did you know it's more to do it us sometime do a card you. put money on you until you find money to clear them you're not leaving you. with almost $300.00 refugees aboard the ocean viking is that over capacity. with nick's approval the volunteers improvise creating extra space for the rescued what. do you. think is going to raise the $270.00 people pulled off so you got a little bit shell say at least say that we have to get it done that we got 3 of us

a few times right. now it will be quiet. there are warm meals every morning and midday and as much drinking water as anyone wants most of those rescued hadn't brought any with them really. hot. like. at the back of the ship everyone can wash their clothes. while the captains told me our water level is a bit low so i'm going to have to be a bit careful with how much words we use ok so if you're waiting can you come away on the side to wash clothes wash clothes for the. what can i do to you what you mean. tell me. if i have my home want to cut your birthday i can sing to myself yeah stephen are you free when you take these guys down to the senate near

the muster station to hang their clothes. meanwhile nick is in negotiation with italian and maltese authorities he wants permission to bring the rescue to safety. all his actions with national authorities to avoid being accused of playing into the hands of human traffickers. i the few days later. really good morning. from bar. 2 or what. i feel i am hoping. that if. i. finally get to disembark that italian authorities

detain the ship at port one of the refugees is suspected of having contracted the corona virus. looks. like. the ocean viking is quarantined for 2 weeks. despite the fact that her help at sea is desperately needed with ever more people risking their lives to reach europe. i see videos of the central military and i see videos through throughout. the mediterranean and the atlantic of men women and children being left in danger of being left to dry out for me that's not acceptable. that's why nick wants the ocean viking to return to. quickly as possible to the libyan coast lives after all are at stake.
