the news, this is the w news coming to life from berlin. tragedy strikes in nigeria with more than 150 people feared to have drove for a very comp sizes in the north of the country. residents wait for news, but officials say very few people are being pulled alive from the warmer. also coming up, images from the bar suggest the military is using brutal tactics to terrorize and

violence, anti government demonstrators. and a powerful sy clone has bafford parts of eastern india, causing serious flooding and leaving thousands homeless. it's the 2nd major storm to hit the country in the past 2 weeks. ah. hello, i'm terry martin. good to have you with us. more than a 150 people are feared to drowned in northwest nigeria after a fairy think on the niger river. around 165 people are believed to have been on board. when the boat capsized, it was traveling from central new york state to heavy state where witnesses say it broke into pieces and said, well it's head straight over to lagos. now for the latest our correspondence, fred, bonnie is standing. bother fred, what more can you tell us about the rescue effort?

do authorities think they have any chance of pulling any more people alive from the water? tell you they turn says to put out more people with according to officials from that in the states. their way of saying that this is, this is unlikely because the incident happened. this accident happened yesterday. i called the local time and they be the people on the ward time. so the chances of getting them i've it's the almost impossible. that's why did he say, he said no operation went on until midnight and then they talked i'm the started that gave me this morning coping to hoping that they can get more bodies from the water. now the boat was apparently overcrowded when it's saying,

is that likely the main cause that's what the officials are saying because this war to know my should cut around 80 people. but we understand that the number was more than more than double some numbers. some of the newspapers are saying 200 people saying more than 180, but the central fisher's count, 165 women, and the kids who were on these boards going to a market. so definitely i think that's the main cause for the fact that the voice was overloaded and not only people, but also even some of some of the things that they were taking to the market wayllace on board. so definitely that's one of the reasons, but also what these boards are they all these

kinds of accidents, these boat accidents or not, but uncommon unfortunately in nigeria could authorities be doing more to prevent yeah, obviously people are saying that they want to transport transport point issue and, well, fisher should walk on need and try to see what they can change because and no one who wants new business in water transport. they just go there and do eat and they have on boards. there are no safety measures and officials bad control days. so that's why fred, thanks so much. good to see you again by the way, that was our correspondent treadmill one year in lagos. take a look at some of the stories making headlines around the world today. the vehicles have jammed the roads out of goma in the eastern democratic republic of congo after

. displacing 50000 people. there is nothing left my son and i fled like my home is destroyed. there's nothing like lone moves inland. it's also disrupting efforts to deal with india surging corona virus, pandemic testing and vaccination had to be suspended in several districts. they will be no return to normal here. anytime soon. your secretary of state anthony blinking has wrapped up his to day tour of the middle east and his visit to the region was in response to the conflict between israel and palestinians. mainly in garza lincoln met with israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and palestinian leader muffled a bus on tuesday for travelling to egypt and jordan on wednesday. his final press conference in the jordanian capital amman, blinking urged the region to work towards a lasting piece. we want to avoid a return to the harrowing violence of recent weeks. the countries of this region need to help and support one another. in the coming days,

i'll be consulting broadly with will go and other partners to ensure we all contribute to recovery stability and the reduction attention on our joined by dr. julie norman, she's the lecturer at university college london with a focus on human rights and security in the middle east. thanks for being with us, dr. norman. what's your assessment of secretary blinking visit to the middle east? well, terry lincoln was going 1st and foremost to shore up this cease fire after this guy's a conflict. so his main primary meetings were in israel and palestine with the prime minister netanyahu. and also with the house and authority president, mahmud a bass. part of this was just to get aid flowing back into gaza. the u. s. has committed it over $300000000.00 and $8.00 under this administration. and also biden was get going on with getting the additional aid from egypt and jordan and egypt,

jordan and katara to, to, to the bulk of the cease fire was also partly just to restore diplomatic relations with the p a as well. okay, so definitely trying to rally get some aid moving there to the palestinians. in garza, we heard the us secretary state the calling for a reduction intentions between israelis and palestinians. the issues that led to the outbreak of the conflict remained though, do you think we'll see any shift in policy from israel or the palestinians to avoid a descent into bottles again? well terry, i think this is where things are going to be difficult again, right now we're getting the commitments for bulking up the fire. but in order to deal with the deeper issues, undergirding, this latest escalation, as well as the much deeper roots of the conflict is going to take a lot more work. and it's something that the u. s. is not quite poise to do just yet. and quite frankly, the parties in the region are not quite ready to do either on either israel or the

palestinians. and so we can expect more of a continuation of the status quo. and unfortunately, most likely a nother escalation, as we saw in god the over the last period probably will happen again. sometime in the future. with these undergrad issues still outlying, you are predicting another escalation intentions because of the underlying problems not being result. what about prospects for achieving peace in the form of a 2 state solution has? is that prospect been completely abandoned? well, terry, unfortunately a 2 state solution is looking more and more unlikely. and that's very much due to fax on the ground that just have continued a pace for the last several decades since the blue core and lincoln and the binding administration still maintain that the 2 state solution is where they would be focusing their efforts if and when peace negotiations were to start again. however, most people on the ground agree that even that would be very difficult,

especially given the settlement expansion and the extent to which the occupation has really just extended deeper and deeper over these past decades into the west bank as well. as and got dr. julie norman from university college london, thank you very much. thank you very you. foreign ministers are meeting to discuss their response to bella versus diversion of a commercial flight to arrest a dissident last week. earlier western members of the un security council called for an urgent investigation into the grounding of the ryan air flight. they called it a blatant attack on international aviation safety and european security. as we report, the consequences of the incident are now beginning to play out in europe's aerospace flying in circles. before going right back to where it started. the beloved in bella rizzi,
