pakistan there on high alert is a cycle. it approaches tens of thousands of residents evacuate. and moscow continues to dismiss any progress and you find comprehensive. but a prominent freshman state tv presented sales a very different story on the ad to apply to me for the welcome at least 179. people have found that hundreds more i thought to be missing off today about the sank of grace. the coast guard says it rescued more than a 100 of its among them people from syria, egypt, pakistan and the palestinian territories. the recovery effort continued throughout the night. it's feed many more people could have been trapped on the lower decks of the best. so when it capsized, it's already one of your deadliest maritime disasters. embracing cheese.

recovering from a brush with death. survivors of the ship wreck rest at a warehouse at the port of cala mazda in southern greece. it's unclear how many people were on board, but according to passengers, there were hundreds. a massive search effort has been launched. but it might be, which is indeed a gigantic operation because we are talking about some very large number of ship direct people who i think is one of the most difficult and extensive gotten this in terms of the numbers that the greek state is facing so far things are going to be a survivors say the vessel left the libyan port city of tub. brooke, heading for italy, the ship sang some 80 kilometers from the greek coast near the town of p. los the greek coast guard claims. the passengers repeatedly refused an offer of help when they responded late tuesday. greece is one of the main routes into the

european union for migrants from africa, the middle east and asia. then they are of colorado says they are well equipped to cope with the emergency. we have shows like everyone in greece, many additional we have taken care of everything else. all the sites has been prepared, the toilet on the showers. anything that is needed, including clothing a photo, i guess if i, if i hear you, the greek president catarina sacked, a lot of hulu flew to the porch of color matter to assess the situation and to visit survivors and hospital. the united nation says more than a $70000.00 refugees and migrants have arrived so far this year in europe's front line, mediterranean countries. i'm always joined by greek journalist onto the conasauga.

and the tell us where this operation is that is it still a rescue and recovery operation? well, i was just speaking to senior coast guard officials and they say that it is still a rescue and search operation. and it will continue so long as hopes of recovering survivors does not say. but needless to say, as the hours go by, hopes of retrieving survivors are fading. we have 78 that count has been and has change. we are 78, a bodies have been recovered. a 104 survivors so far, uh, non collected throughout the night when the operation was still ongoing. but again, the authorities are saying that they will continue this operation. i get to pick just by looking at a higher when can you tell us more about the scale of this tragedy?

absolutely. it's being called by authorities here and even as far as brussels, one of the worst migrant thinkings in, in history definitely. within the recent years, what we're dealing with was a richard the troll fishing vessel that started from libya bound for easily. and in the course of that journey, it that it was spotted by the tally and the stories, and the greek authorities moved in. but when they did go to assist the special, the migrants refusing rebuffed any kind of assistance authorities. i've been speaking to said that because of this because they saw that this was a, a rickety raft and overflowing with refugee that they stood by. but within a couple of hours it sank. and what we're hearing now from the initial account of

survivors is that the number on board this craft, you know, could, it could be as far as 700. most of the survivors have been many, many, but again, initial look help speak of more than a 100 women and children that were below jack. but again, officials, i've been speaking to say that, you know, we may never find out how many were actually on board. the special itself now has sunk to the bottom of one of the mediterranean deepest points. is there any indication as to why the migrants would refuse help? this is the indication that we're getting, assuming that they wanted, they did not want to receive any assistance from the greek authorities. because receiving that assistance would mean that they would be coming onto greek soil. they apparently were hell bent on reaching italy, which is effectively a step closer to within europe to the ultimate destinations, which may have been,

you know, germany or the u. k. um, but obviously because of tightening measures here in dealing with migration and that this may have put off the migraines. but you know, all this me that was there in 10 to reach either lee and that's why they would bossed any kind of assistance to be taken in by the greek authorities generally sounded kind of somebody in athens. thank you very much. i'm sure we'll be talking a lot more about what's just going on in the mediterranean. thank you so much. then more than $75000.00 people have been evacuated from pods of india and pakistan ahead of the expected land full of the fees cycle meteorologist say it could devastate coastal areas. at least 7 people have already been killed in powerful winds. storm searches in torrential rain, cycling the pa joy named after the been gone. the word for disaster is expected to

well, the provincial government, i've seen the hassle residents across you to prepare for the worst of the expectation. is that the bad, the time the housing projects and we can reclaim land will be particularly affected? well, the suburbs are normally affected by the floods and we were effected a year ago in our affected during monsoon season. municipal timing and emergency is a complete disaster in the city due to competing political interest. the cycling itself was a, it's changed categories. it's gone from severe to experienced severe. so it is predicted to be intense. are they going to get enough people out on time? i as well, some people have prepared themselves precautions with solar panels, reinforcing the windows, putting together survival kits on twitter. use the account sharing tips on how to go about things. there's no care data of how many people have been evacuated from

their homes in the urban areas. the box on is even less prepared for hurricane as compared to floods. as this event is quite rare. um. so evacuation is so far better and more just rural areas. but in the dense urban center grouchy, the population may be a little more difficult to control from is all about not seen of us. thank you very much for bringing us those insights. you look at some of those stories, making headlights thousands have demonstrated invoice or, and other publish cities against the countries restrictive abortion thoughts for pregnant women died of census. it's the latest to the spring of this seems familiar with tyson, women and poland now have the right to abortion only in cases of rape or incest, or threats that lie for health easily is held the site funeral for full, the prime minister, silvio berlusconi who died a monday at the age of $86.00,

ukrainian troops. the russian presidents also claims ukraine would soon run out of weapons. but a prominent presenter on russian state television has said ukraine has achieved some successes. and one of the tough battles they had. after days of silence from the kremlin, vladimir putin finally remarked publicly on ukraine's counter offensive in a question and answer session with selected journalists and bloggers. some of he played down the offensive and said the ukrainians weapons would soon run out of the nature of a. let's see ukrainian army fighting with why do they make their own times that focus on bradley's? you sure? sure. they don't produce anything. the defense industry will soon be nonexistent or what? so they produce junior pruitt. i mean, nation is being delivered to them, mid to equipment is being supplied to them. everything is supplied. so that was, that will work for a long moment. you can put and if they did

a question that was perhaps designed to be critical about whether the russian army would take that land recaptured by the ukrainian instead he choked with the journalist. yeah, it was because then i can only tell you that in private pursuit of shifted with in general. but then, so everything will depend on the potentials to remain was the so called counselor offensive has ended when you might, but i think the ukrainian leadership, whatever they may be like, okay, we'll have enough sense to make the right decision to give them the catastrophic loss as they are suffering if they but on russian state television, a daily show, normally laden with propaganda, gave a more serious assessment of the situation. when a studio guest appeared to ridicule, ukraine's counter offensive and jokes. but the finding only exists on youtube. the tv anchor was also a member of parliament, was quitting to correct him. you know, it's not just on youtube. we have to admit the ukrainians have had some successes, but coming months will be tough for us. we have one back, some areas,

but we've also lost you. it's a tough battle roller. but but another propaganda show broadcast at the time time, firmly blamed the west and it claimed the latest counter offensive as being controlled by foreign powers. it's as though, you know, this conflict has become borderless on the gets portal, isn't it goals, and it's your graffiti and it's weaponry. it's absolutely obvious that keith, he's no longer making decisions for itself. see the keys this counter offensive is that if you will, the decision to launch it was made for key, feathery, based on the interest of the us and evidently the u. k. to say the annual next step . if i made it easy to make sure when a company thing, well, moscow is still keen to leave no doubt that it will succeed in ukraine. the kremlin does appear to be preparing lessons for a long, drawn out conflict. and is always famous vantage comm raised the media of 1000 days
