the doctor. so in the clouds, it's time to and then when generations to nash dw documentary, the, the hello and welcome to this week's edition of focus on europe. it's great to have you with us. border protection to prevent illegal immigration has been a huge challenge and the european union in recent years. the situation is currently coming to a head on the border between the roofs and poland, poland, and e. u. member states as seen a dramatic rise of illegal crossings in recent months. below. ruth has done little to discourage migraines from attempting to enter the neighboring states. tensions
7:31 am
arising on the polish side, human rights activists, alexander fis, on the guys concerned about the we'll be going for a few, geez, many have died in the past years trying to make it's to po, but others like board of guys, me. hi, buddha, support district. the board of policies announced by the published government yesterday about the whole boot of the polish border guard keeps watch on the frontier with bella luce thought a few years ago this paved road led straight into belarus and not the waters now it was closed as an external border of the e u. it has to be secured against illegal immigration, among other things. buddha and his fellow border guards patrol from migrants waiting for their chance to enter the u. v. of the forest on the television side. sp seen any one suspicious of that? yeah. which quiet tony locals. so let's hope it stays that way. hold of
7:32 am
the polish government describes illegal migration of hybrid warfare. it is accused bella, bruce and russia, have deliberately funnelling migrants from asia and africa to the polish border as a way of pressuring the west. nearly all of them have russian visas. a new migration which has taken shape here. holden's previous government, headed by the law and justice party, installed a barrier along some a 180 kilometer is of the border. even so the polish border guard has recorded over 20000 attempted, illegal crossing so far this year. many more than the year before or to create the defendants april. the number of attempts has risen to several 100 per day for the budget. and the attempts have become increasingly aggressive, assuming that our officers and soldiers had been injured. and it's going to go down full for both of our vehicles and equipment, had been damaged to and ultimately a tragedy occurred as an account of one of our own was killed in a year. that's nice. border guards are increasingly being attacked through the
7:33 am
barrier. in early june, a polish soldier died of stab wounds inflicted by mixture spear the polish government under donald tusk. names to reactivate a buffer zone, up to 2 kilometers white in some areas along the border. nobody can enter without permission of the thank you so much. these are not refugees. the median were, and fewer of them are families in need of assistance. i'm just going to ship. i think i left. i'm in the beginning. 80 percent of cases we are dealing with organizing groups of young men age 18 to $30.00 who are very violent to going to be covered. but if i get a fitness neither a stricter border policy nor a new government has really changed the situation. if anything it's only gotten worse, it's alexandra christian, they'll sca she's part of an 8 organization task with finding migrants deep in the forest along the illiteracy. in frontier before vigilante groups for the border guard get to them. we also look for the stuff to come up with the people we
7:34 am
encounter, tell us they've been subjected to even worse, even more cruel and ruthless violence, not just on the bill of roost inside, but on the polar side to the on the tell us they were beaten, kicked, thrown to the ground and handcuffed one. okay, then kind of me thinking about as a multi convertible. find them for the final question of scott shows us videos of refugees and other volunteers regularly. and countries here in the forest summer, starving or injured, the volunteers take care of them and advise them to apply for asylum in poland. if they don't, they can legally be sent back to them the risk. but not all refugees are given the chance to apply. it because a lot of those push, what's the call many of the people in the forest to say they intend to apply for protection and also see it to the border guard officers in our presence to end up contacting us a few days later from belarus of platform, so they said they were forced to sign a document which they did not understand,
7:35 am
but stated that they would not seek protection in poland to the support of any color and exclusively that. so kind of forced to many of these are allegedly illegal to spikes. the border guard denies involvement. video circulating online allegedly show polish. border guards carrying seemingly unconscious people to a small gate in the battery or to the valid routes the inside. there's been hardly any official response. this border area is especially dangerous for refugees. alexandra christian of sca shows as the grieves of people who died in the be all of the edge of forest. if they're going to do any of those, most of these people are fleeing mortal danger in their home country. so the dream of a normal peaceful life and instead wind up in a place where their lives are in just as much danger. tonya, this policy of isolation means that rather than finding peace and safety, these people lose their lives. time for the folder to donald tusk, promise more humane refugee policies in his election campaign. crusher notes go,
7:36 am
says he hasn't kept those promises. border guard me help or a says the government is coming go, but the border will always be protecting because it's secret binder injury like this in mere cut on a finger can be extremely dangerous. lots poisoning or sips. this is one of the most common conditions and causes of death worldwide. because phipps is often times not immediately identified well, you will. time is lost. a light diagnosis in germany almost costs buick wintering his life. after the infection, he lost large force of his arms and legs. now he's trying to adapt to his new normal while maintaining the positive mindset, the author racing an electric, wheelchair. it works well that deal could still alive as a small miracle. he was in an induced coma for 16 days and underwent 8 surgeries. 4
7:37 am
months, it was, i'm certain whether he would survive. if you now attend the sessions at this clinic, to train his extremely weakened body. not mine, okay, but when i arrived here after my operation, my body was so weak and my muscles so atrophied. i could only lift my head and since you don't mind call team come to us. i see i'm calm. the 1st thing i had to do was get fit again. should we build my body off to rebuild my muscles on so that i could do basic things of everyday life again, seems i think brushing my teeth for just getting out of bed and into my wheelchair for that move out of state or some pets from. but in the most to the full started so innocently was here. so what happened was i caught myself in an old here mattress and the seller. and this one, it was a very, very small cottage on my left index finger, which became infected and send it out, comes in, turned into a strip to call co infection,
7:38 am
which ultimately triggered subsets as far back. and you can see the small, small cot here that then developed into a blister over night, like going up closet and because the infection was caused by mouse droppings on the mattress. soon gale was in severe pain, had a fever and shortness of breath to doctors, told him the infection was homeless. the aux devali because he was finally admitted to a hospital where he suffered septic shock. he had to be placed and, and induced coma during the infection. his body diverted most of his oxygen to his vital organs, the brain, the heart and the loans on doesn't exist. so because of the large parts of both his arms and legs didn't receive enough blood peanuts, and this is what ultimately led to him needing the amputation as what he had to have. it was a really serious case and he was actually off high as close as the device among the oaks. the attending physician at the rehabilitation clinic,
7:39 am
his major concern early on was that the residual limbs and the skin protecting them properly. only then, what is it possible for guild to be fitted with pros, dc's substance is one of the most common diseases worldwide affecting around 50000000 people every year. most of us could be avoided with the correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment on it for the okay, long steps. this is a severe inflammation of the body. it's triggered by bacteria entering the bloodstream via an injury. for example, steps this occurs when the immune system over reacts damaging the body instead of fighting the infection left on checked is a tax vital organs which start to fail. this is exactly what makes it so dangerous . plus i know this is, i was completely unaware of what steps this is and what it can lead to in the end that somebody will help me. i've only learned recently how bad such as can be reached. and a zip is always getting kind of in most cases, at least
7:40 am
a desk because it does not recognize properly. and so had obvious in that respect, i was very lucky to survive that and just to be sitting here today that can come saw come on in the whole space just for us. it's once much so we find a good place to practice. standing up. gale oaks therapist costs schmidt, doesn't just give him practical tips. he's a cheerleader too. he knew gail would need both psychological and physical help. fish. very nice. well done chip. i didn't help that work that well, yes, you do that on your own, dyna, i think in on the side it does say i think would make some differences, but he doesn't look back in the looks ahead of i think he realized how things were going for him a few months ago and he thought he had no alternative finding more not. and so i
7:41 am
was just concerned to set my sense is he seems to have woken up, looked ahead and said, well there's no going back now. if he told himself, look, i was lucky, i'm still alive and can now prepare myself for a new life and lose by the cream. if i can no longer do what i want, i have to one to what i can do. i'm gonna say fine was kind of happy, positive fits feels good and it was on low pressure points. no pain. sure nice. every step takes enormous effort, both physically and mentally one day deal, then telling hopes to be able to work again before the steps as he was a marketing team leader out of medium sized company, consisting of a work is a very important part of my life. is integral, let's go ahead and talk to my old life as good as part of my new like to i'm 40 years old and 50. i couldn't imagine just sitting at home from now on and taking early retirement. and it's, i feel strange again just feels wrong. coolants on,
7:42 am
on the stops off of the sign i one to buy, go and so you did it so that was the feel free to didn't crush your hand today. no standing will, king deal wants to reclaim as much of his old life as possible to spare and doubts all his constant companions. let's get to the end of the day. i have many inner demons, new data about that i couldn't find that are these when i could just scream at the wall of mine and beat us as everyone can imagine. what it's like on this day that there are certain questions i simply shouldn't ask myself. right now, and the system must be the fargo questions like why me, why not someone else on the above all is the question. who's to blame or that's always the thing though, despite these are the 2 most important questions that i try to ignore all the time . because there is no answer to them and they don't get me anywhere either on the
7:43 am
shelf. and so i definitely off to 6 months, feel good been telling is allowed to leave the clinic. she is happy to be back in his home and benefit and tries to apply what she has lunch during his rehabilitation. feed escape. lot is possible involved a lot is no longer possible for me to be a lot simply has to be planned with the help of family members when it starts with getting one church at the fridge farm, i have to use my wheelchair to get food stuff and then be able to get the top 10. there's difficulties in the morning to sort of using toothpaste when brushing my teeth. the tooth brush can't be too far away so that i can still reach it. this is part of everyday life. i said some of what i taken for granted has suddenly become an obstacle then. and some things are just impossible. dlc within telling doesn't give off if something doesn't work right away. she sees it as a set of physical challenges. something he used to seek out when he was younger,
7:44 am
which he had been good while i grew up on the skis. i used to ski slope as much as possible and i mean really off slope i found the place in glen the in the back country. the steeper, the better the renewal limits before it can limit. and i was also a passionate dancer and so it was my wife was my dance partner, of course. so so convincing them i'm trying to instill this attitude into my children. but of course, that will be a bit more difficult to do in the future like to the site, the tops of his life are returning to normal, is due mainly to his voice. alexandra, she and georg have been married for 12 years. when mix of them, you learn to adapt to the situation. it's like a movie and it didn't feel like our life. it's only now that the 4 of us are back at home that every day life has slowly crept back in. yeah. and what's different? driving the kids to where they need to go in the morning by myself. that was a task we used to share up on that. and then i have to make sure before i leave the
7:45 am
house that i lease georg a coffee cup with a straw in it. and that i was an apple for him to eat for the next time. she will never forget the 1st time she visited her husband in the hospital, off to his amputation with the 2 children. so kindly of by the okay, we came in to go through the 1st thing shouting and said was god, where are your hands? and i said, i told you remember, yeah, but then very soon it was just like always under the we all stage the race with the wheelchair getting on ran alongside me. lia pulled the little one was sitting on gaylon's lap. so yes, it was just like always gail, conduct exam drugs, cherry coffee together in the late afternoon officers. she's come home from work. they talk about the traumatic experiences of the last few months and what has given them strength significant. it's so important to have a family,
7:46 am
a ready to for emotional support is going to hum my children and my wife have been such a comfort for me. i don't think i would have had the will and the motivation to work so hard on myself for such a long time with items one will hold on it. so all by skills. high tech pros, dc's costs thousands of years. the paid full mainly by his health insurance. some a diety is an important principle in german society. the healthy pay for the sick, the rich, well, the poor. everyone is entitled to the same medical treatment. today, orthopedist or slootsky is given guilt. a new sense of pros, dc's, so, but i've got your new feet with me. said they don't feel natural that's for a job. i get it. i don't know. like what i finally got a couple of times i said, and at 1st it feels good to get a bit more support and it helps cool. now you don't have so much play in them anymore. yeah,
7:47 am
great. leaned back but then adjusted all on your own guilt of intending is making progress, but he's eager for things to improve even more quickly. escaped by the one of the things we'll continue to progress is if one improve doesn't work. there's always another good friend and finding that new approach becomes the important thing to do. the most important thing is to keep going to keep out the or london has an air pollution problem and has started several initiatives to reduce people's exposure to find dust cars or major polluters. so limiting private transport is an important part of the locals governments planned to alleviate the problem. key measures include driving into london with
7:48 am
a private car has become more and more expensive. drivers are urge to switch to low emission vehicles and private transport is banned from several streets in the city . well, many london or support restrictions to protect the environment. others are getting increasingly fed up. and we're heading to the center of london on foot. it's a straight route, but a trip by car is filled with many detours. the shortest way for cab driver as these would be to follow the red bus. but there is no turning left for taxis here. since the central road is now only open to buses and cyclists, and the dislike cars can't turn right or go straight, meaning aziz has to drive once around the block properly 6 minutes and traffic. now from where we started from. and
7:49 am
i could have done a left out from where your office is really, really frustrated and won't be the same for a short green lights and long red ones and a whole lot of new signs. sometimes it's prohibited to turn right or left and sometimes the road is only open to buses. there are lanes for cyclists, though, and recently they've been granted access to several main roads. drivers, however, are regularly stuck in traffic jams on parallel streets. it's not unusual for these to meet twice as much time for a trip as he did 5 years ago. right here we go straight the way down to web and got it. but extra noise the london's mayor turned it into a public seating area. even though it was next to a park, it's in my opinion, it's just
7:50 am
a discovery call driving a lot of them to make it really a horrible experience with neo goods. so people jump on to the public transport system. and disease isn't really wrong about that. london is mayor, has made no secret of the fact that he wants fewer cars on the streets when people to walk cycle use public transport and drive clean costs. it wasn't long ago that london's mayor, so the con, extended the ultra low emission zone for cars us to the entire city to offset emissions. those who exceed certain levels have to pay fees with cameras registering every vehicle. in the suburbs, there were fierce and loud protests. one of the protesters was building contractor . danny met his cards were not deemed clean enough under the regulations.
7:51 am
for a short time, he paid the emissions charge every day to keep his business running. in the end, he saw no alternative, but to get new vans. we've lost jobs because we've had to the coup, right? those costs both the you guys buy and the news on what putting it onto the client. this is not a solution to keep painting lies in good working phosphates. needless to say, danny can't ride a bus or bicycle with his heavy equipment, so he didn't really have a choice. but the restrictions on cars are there for a good reason. london's air is polluted. rosamond supports any measure that makes driving less appealing. her 9 year old daughter had asthma. she died in 2013. so i finally picked up her death certificate. i had to say to black and white that she died due to not just apple who should excessive levels of air
7:52 am
pollution. according to london's may or the air quality has been improving and like him, rosamond believes that the measures to cut car use have helped it is still at the stage where it is impacting the most vulnerable, and that is young children who are developing the along still and also, oh is it people who are more valuable as these is offer better air quality, but he doesn't believe that restrictions are the only way to achieve that goal. nor is he happy about the newest traffic lights. one of the most efficient round about service more stuff. for sure. yeah. how is that makes he thinks the mayor should be working with drivers on finding solutions, not against them. at last, as ease near says, destination after yet another trip built with the tours. when i think of seagulls,
7:53 am
i imagine laughing waste and serenity at the beach. but for many people in rome, a far less picturesque image probably comes to mind. for the last decades, the terminal city is attracted flocks of seagulls. they've been learned by dumps and bins groaning with foods checked away by residents and taurus, while the birds skid more and more comfortable. some romans are getting increasingly annoyed. now the citizen ministration has come up with a new idea to tackled invasion of the sea. birds. saw new sets in room and within a time for the singles in that own slice of paradise were abundant. tourists provide a bountiful feast around 50 years ago. there wasn't a single c go around here, but now the everywhere. the romans have mixed feelings through the field. i like it when they spread their wings and the look at you as a parent talking to you. where are those gonna enjoy the company? and i go buy me a small dump in us last night when the delivery came in
7:54 am
a siegel to come up with a fish. so you end up running after them. they've got a good idea that a guy, and we've had his gum, the restaurant suspects. now, sick and tired, if the wings thieves for that and no, no you know, even unless he goes accounts on the trash bags, holding all the food scraps got it. if they can't open the bags and then drag them right across the street. no. but to the southern sofa, all attempts to expend the beds have been in vain. but now the falcon erie romani birth control service has arrived on the scene when it comes to driving away the trouble makers, navea into harris's whole car in high demand. see goals have been bothering the guess on the rooftop terrace of the hotel pon to cease though for weeks the only day or is simple. you got beyond that then got maybe i mean just because it goes become afraid because there's a predator nearby that could harm their young dude. okay. paul saw last. i don't, they sense it's not a safe place for their young and leave their area to be single downloads on a single without the video, it'd be clear. even the big, the goal is keep
7:55 am
a healthy distance from those close front of you. so the to pray return every 2 weeks. they don't one goals, they just scare them away. flavio has a soft spot for beds which explains another falconry, and the deep funding she has with a whole lot of dyslexia trained her and she grew up with me and the over time we've developed a trusting relationship for the store. and if you do show, thanks to her, perhaps one day the see goes invasion of roommate. yes. be a footnote in the cities, storage history. well, it certainly seems. the seagulls have tried to make the trundle say to their internal home. that's all from us today. i hope you enjoyed the show, you can look up all our reports in our website, dw, the. com. thanks for watching and see you next week the
