10:02 pm
neighboring countries are planning an attack, a deadline for new year's new military rulers to reinstate the president, came and went yesterday and there are no signs that the one to plans to back down. the eco watch group of west african countries has called the number just the summit for this coming thursday, as defiant and determine the zeros one to is dumpling, down on its power ground. addressing tens of thousands of supporters gathered in the capital military leaders showed no sign of relinquishing control 2 days, gathering his testimony to your commitments and to your determination to change news. here to bankers were undeterred by an ultimatum from west african speaker wants union to reinstate the countries
10:03 pm
democratically elected president mohammed funds to whom news here has suffered so much these here has taken responsibility. it wasn't just the military who took power, but the people who took power, what we have now, and here is true democracy. the peak of loss had given the hunter one week to stand down and warrant. it has a plan for a military intervention if necessary. as the deadline pass new share as military leaders, doug in fests and i've been asked to be the chair, is faced with this trend of intervention, and that is becoming clearer through the action of neighboring countries. therefore, our air space is closed from this day on for all aircraft until further notice and is able to use the move and there will be an immediate and, and energetic response. how you do any attempts to enter our airspace as you did something. the sky is around the share, quickly emptied as the country brace for. what comes next?
10:04 pm
speaker last space is immense challenges, however, it proceeds with new shares, neighbors, burkina, faso, and molly, both ruled by military regimes backing the hunter. or they say any military intervention in these air will be seen as an active board. i spoke earlier with the older welding. she's an expert on africa's, so hel region, i asked her if there's consensus among eco wass countries on using military force against new shares. qu, leaders know their, their peers and not to be otherwise beyond the questions of readiness and passes either, most likely would have been an introduction this past sunday is when the deadline for the hunter expired. i think it's clear about their subdivision within echo aust, i'm the reality is that a new job has now joined the other 3 suspended members across so out of
10:05 pm
a block of 15 countries, there are only 11 countries right now that are um that are full members so you know, there's new, there's no clear consensus in terms of the use of force. it's only really nigeria that has been the most um the loudest and the most vocal about pushing for a military expansion. and let me just ask you about the credibility of eco why so as you said, that ultimatum the deadline has come and gone. it was yesterday, and there has been a military intervention. so the military hunter, basically called eco watches bluff, do they does, he can watch, have any leverage now. so he wants to really still does have a leverage. and the reality is that nature is a big player. it is, you know, the largest economy uh, on the continent. uh, and its also in the region. um, the company does seem to have quite a lot of legitimacy to, you know, niger was not colonized by friends. so the, the art,
10:06 pm
some of the arguments that we've heard advanced in the context of new share, such as is what's referred to the alleged damage and problematic relationship that they have with friends aren't relative to major and major has a quite good praise relationship with a new job, just quite symbolic for both countries. so as a major has a lot of credibility in this context. it also is a country that has recently gone through. i believe it's 3rd democratic transition in recent times. so it's a, it's a huge loan for nigeria to prove their legitimacy on the global stage. we have been seeing images of pro cool pro hunter rallies in new york. does that reflect how the people feel about the military take over of their government? are they in favor of what's happening as well? it's really difficult to know for sure. i mean the realities that in yeah, me is in the southern part of the country,
10:07 pm
although that is where the bulk of the population is. however, if we do look at recent uh, media uh, history in one would, i think it's reasonable to drop the inclusion that there is a popular support for the school. unfortunately, for me here, the norm is the time when there is an issue with the government and not democratic transitions. and unfortunately, the pain of the, the economic crisis unit was global recession and inflation has been felt all over the world has been very acute in the share. and when we add the other crises, such as the instability of the issues regarding armed uh, armed, experienced people. uh, i think it probably sounds desperate and see, oh well, you know this, this is a positive change. and i think that also, uh, russian has been very successful in africa in terms of getting people to uh, kind of endorse the idea that they are a ppo uh,
10:08 pm
power delivery. let me pick you up on that. we are hearing that and the motivation for some of the support has to do with the, you know, the french colonial history in new jersey or also the fact that the united states has a strong counter terrorism military presence in new jersey here. um, is there any validity do that as i think there is. and i think that if we look at the situation, very similar to some of the problem box and so in the middle east, whether it be rock rock, understand, or elsewhere, when we talked about this idea needing to win hearts and minds who really discussed that is the fact that there needs to be no whole by end there needs to be also government ownership in any type of entity, terrace fight. because for people in the chair, it's not necessarily just for an elements that are coming and creating these problems and their communities. they might be people within their own communities. i mean our decisions that people make perhaps because they are not feeling like the government is providing them the services or the future that they hold for. so this
10:09 pm
is, this is in fact one of the reasons why when, when populations and much traffic could begin to look at a country like russia, which did not have policies. and after god did have counties elsewhere in the period of the us as are. and some might say, has visions now, as they are not in africa, at least not extensively in africa. there is a feeling that, you know, i me said russia, it's a fair deal. it's something different. and there's a lot of freedom and maybe even boston group to some extent have been quite frank about the type of relationship they would like with the 2 of these populations. you have a perception here it is. um, it's remarkable that's for sure. i'll be on the wrong thing. we appreciate your analysis tonight. thank you. thank you man. so, all right, let's take a look now and some of the other stories that are making headlines around the world . ukraine's president for them is zalinski has shared video and social media. he says it shows the aftermath of

10:14 pm
that the merchandise is too wet or too damaged to be sold out. i want to cry, but tears won't come out or well, it's impossible to clean this up. listen, the losses are definitely significant. the place where people used to live the food and even the cement. pretty much all of it has been sold by water. also, all these items in the store, there's no way of selling them. china has deployed soldiers that are military forces to aid rescue efforts and to restore the basic infrastructure such as washed out storm drains and re lines. but it may be weeks a months before life or tons to normal for many in northern china. extreme weather has also been hitting parts right here and you're the least 6 people died in the severe storms and flooding that hips, lavinia over the weekend for waters. and force thousands of people to flee their

10:16 pm
on monday residents, we're busy clearing away the mind revealing the full extent of the destruction a to so we've as large, severe damage and the enormous financial loss has ruined for the damage amounts of the 10s. if not hundreds of millions of years, it will take a large amount of money to restore everything, maybe on no error. even though the rains have lit up, rescue workers. so now struggling with the threat of lance lines, not just in slovenia, but also here in the southern austrian village of south nick when i m. samsung, the risk of mud envil. inches is now especially high sewage. i've sold them asked me sigh collapsing, but we are powerless to stop it. it is hoped that plastic tarps like leaves will help prevent moorland slides. hundreds of people have been evacuated and brought to emergency shelters, just in case slovenia has asked the u. s. nato for aid, especially with technical devices and military helicopters,
10:17 pm
as well as several pre fabricated breaches up to 40 meters long to help access regions that are now cut off. and here are more headlines now from around the world . south korea says that it will evacuate about 36000 people from the world scale jam, very because of a looming type food scouts will be bought stuff the camp site to alternative accommodations. the event was already hit by extreme weather last week with hundreds of scouts suffered heat related illnesses. russia says that it will launch its 1st lunar landing spacecraft in nearly 50 years. this coming friday. it was originally planned for 2022, but was delayed due to technical problems. the russians aimed to establish a base on the moon by 24 to brittany has begun living asylum seekers onto a bar on the south coast. it's part of the conservative governments plan to determine why vince from entering the country illegally. it was originally built the house
10:18 pm
220 people. but the floating hospital has been modified to accommodate 500 health and safety officials have expressed serious concerns. dozens of migraines are missing, fear dead after 2 boats. cap sized off the italian islands, guam producer. over the weekend, the rescues were made difficult by. you see right here, rough stormy seas in the mediterranean, the number of migrants trying to make it to europe. have searched over the last year with many coming from sub saharan africa, making the journey to olivia or tanisha to try to cross the mediterranean and extremely dangerous conditions, often in overcrowded books. now the people making these treacherous journeys, they put their faith in the hands of criminal migrant smugglers. our next report looks at what the smugglers do and why they do a rickety boat overloaded
10:19 pm
with people in the mediterranean images like this have become common place. and the last decade as the list of tragic mass drownings continues to grow. why so many people on such old boats in a word, money smugglers charged people thousands of heroes for a place on a boat crowding them on means more profit. using old boats, reduces costs of the revenue from a single trip can be in the millions. many of those who do the dirty work of smuggling or migrants themselves, but most of the money ends up in the hands of international criminal gangs. how much money? it's impossible to say exactly. but european police agencies estimate revenues from smuggling at $3.00 to $6000000000.00 euros per year. that's based on tens of thousands of people paying an average of 2500 years per person. so much more up to $7000.00 euros each. the crossing is just one piece of the puzzle. smugglers
10:20 pm
provide a range of legal services before and after all at extremely high prices. the risk is assumed by the passengers. smugglers are very rarely caught. from many migrants from further south, the trip can start with false documents. an arduous desert crossing often follows by the time people make it to the next stage, they are often out of cash. criminals exploit them as they try to save money to go on with their journey. some migrants who make it across or who take the overland roads through turkey and south eastern europe are packed into poorly ventilated trucks. they risk running out of oxygen. well, smugglers drive them across borders. many countries in the region have put up fencing and petrol. there borders to keep migrants out. the smuggling is profitable
10:21 pm
precisely because it is illegal. the people crossing with smugglers have no legal option to immigrate. if they did, they could take a flight for a few 100 years lasting a matter of hours. instead they pay thousands for a journey that takes weeks or longer, and costs many of them, their lives squarely or i spoke with hope. barker from the border violence monitoring network, and i asked her to tell violet our european boarders for my uh yeah, definitely. this is a trend that we've been observing as proliferating. i'm was today since 2017, which was about people being picked up being in like in many cases, torture strip naked, a 1st degree back across the borders, but not being able to claim assign them. i'm talking about this is a systematic process that's happening across the so called west and bulk rate in a way that we kind of divide the responsibility to one single country or one single
10:22 pm
member state. but anyway, that responsibility lies. but the, you, the, as you said it's, it's important for us because was named the situation of smuggling. because the, it is impossible to move safely, which creates the humanitarian situation. the smugglers all profiting from. i thought to be closing docs as well. what we've monitored is that people are increasingly dying drowning in the mediterranean during push back appeals. and what the latest examples about those types of conditions of being uncovered. do you think that you're being union authorities, do you think that they have the political real, to stop these human traffickers or i think, i guess you typed it off. as an example. i mean, lighthouse reports did an investigation which clearly shows that the smugglers would not the 9 objections that were arrested. often this involved came from the ship, but what actually people in libya that would lead with the eastern vivian or ortiz, and who had facilitated arrival from syria, have licensed the by to navigate and they'd be in waters. i'm actually connected to
10:23 pm
a leadership that the us funding billions of years into as a way of externalizing migration control and the same the government to us. yeah. so while you is hanging out packages of millions of dollars to countries that are willing, the perpetrators and human rights violations, they kind of say that they all have the fiscal, we'll just stop posting keeps going to be into the hands of smugglers. well, let me get you to our top story tonight is about the crisis in new share. and we know that in africa you have states that are failing their publics. one reason why people are willing to, to migrate and leaving and come to europe. what is your message to the political leaders across africa? what should they be doing so that their people don't want to pick up and lead? i mean, i think that's a very complex question. i think people will always migrate, i think, regardless of crisis, i mean this crisis might be happening now, but the climate crisis in isn't coming and people will be forced to move. so the
10:24 pm
point is really what can we do as a european states to create a safe and legal parkway. so people can be without risking that that you haven't seen headline for smuggling guys, but ukrainians thought because you creating and such safe and legal talk. but it's not, it was possible for that done. so we need to replicate that kind of model people's eating sites. do you know there is no unified margaret migration policy in the european union? that's been a problem now for for years. what do you say the europeans, who say we also have a right to expect countries to protect their borders? a dozen line to protect the voters, and that's violating is national and union human rights law. we have an asylum system in rights and by people have the right to have so individualized assessment to appeal that decision i to have the right to remain in the country until the appeal has gone through. and that is the system that is in line with the
10:25 pm
international and union human rights. no, and that's what we need to respect. so protecting board is needs to come in line with respecting fundamental rights of people seeking safety for barker with. ready the border violence monitoring network. we appreciate your time in your insights tonight that thank you. thank you. in june, southern 100 people reportedly drowned off the coast of greece when a boat carrying migrants capsized was money. so the from pakistan is one of the few who silver whose months dick is one of the few lucky ones. he made it back home when hundreds of others drowned, bought the boat, sinking, his marked him deeply to the jump. so when i sleep at night, i keep dreaming about the same voices screaming, we are dying, save us. then i can sleep again for more than a few hours. when i take a shower, i fear the water and keeps the bathroom door open. as well as the hot
10:26 pm
before he got on the boat, whose mind spent several days in libya in a camp like this one is he describes horrific conditions there and abuse of treatment from people smugglers. the maybe i think the last time you the libya, they kept us starved. whenever my mother called me, she would ask, if i had eaten anything, i used to keep my mo bile away from my ear. unable to find the courage to answer her. it was a really hard time before i thought of turning back, calling to get out of what then i realized i would have to repay the loan. i had taken out anybody in the agency said they would. the doctor has to pass out if anyone returned it, you know that they have none of you, i think is what these are the dates of getting along with whose mom believes that on the fatal night, the greek coast guard deliberately sang the migrant boat who a lot of people do bad on them. they threw
10:27 pm
a rope and pulled our ship with it that made our ship sink. when we fell into the water, we saw another ship was anchored a few kilometers away. rather than rescuing us, they showed lights on us and watched us drown on the go see, and whose mind wanted to improve his family situation by working in europe. that dream ended in a nightmare that he barely escaped to live. are you watching? dw news is reminder of our top story. this year is military rulers have closed the country's air space, claiming neighboring countries are planning an attack. the military hunter ignored a sunday deadline to restore the nations elected president to pop. after a short break, i'll be back to take you through the day. stick around. that will be right back. the
