no, not for me, not to my children without civil rights and with no prospect. but what can we do in david shutter stock, august, 3rd, on the double you. the hello and welcome to this week's edition of focus on europe is 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 but loose 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 arising on the pole beside 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 live, boarded guy, me high buddha, support district. the board of policies and noticed by the pool of his government you say about me, how the polish border guard keeps. watch on the frontier with bella? luce felt a few years ago. this paved road led straight into belarus and there was no, 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. i've seen anyone suspicion to that? yeah, yeah. which quiet tony local,

sorry. let's hope it stays that way. the polish government describes illegal migration is hybrid warfare. it is accused bella bruce and russia deliberately. funneling 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, holdings previous government, headed by the law and justice party installed a barrier along some a 180 kilometers of the border. or even so, the polish border guard has recorded over 25 years into attempted illegal crossing . so far this year, many more than the year before ought to create the sentence. april. the number of attempts has risen to several 100 per day property and the attempts have become increasingly aggressive. our officers and soldiers had been injured and it's an example for our vehicles and equipment had been damaged to and ultimately a tragedy occurred as the cost of $1.00 of our own was killed in

a year. that's nice. border guards are increasingly being attacked through the 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. 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 as i get a sickness, 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. student also looked at us to come over the people we encounter or tell us they've been subjected to even worse, even more cruel and ruthless violence. not just on the bellow roots 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 of the most thinking but of them will find them proper kind of friction. know sca shows us videos of refugees. he and other volunteers regularly encounter 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 the wrist. but not all refugees are given the chance to apply. in spite of those 4 shots before 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 platform. so they said they were forced to sign

a document which they did not understand, but stated that they would not seek protection in poland to the new car, wondering if for she'll be that so kind of close to. many of these are allegedly illegal touche backs the border guard denies involvement. videos circulating online, allegedly show polish. border guards carrying seemingly unconscious people to a small gates and the barrier to the valid routes inside. there's been hardly any official response. this border area is especially dangerous for refugees. alexandra christian of sca shows us the grieves of people who died in the b all of the edge of forest. this is our goals are 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. natania. this policy violation means that rather than finding peace and safety, these people lose their lives for the folder to donald tusk. promise more humane

refugee policies in his election campaign. christian notes go, says he hasn't kept through his promises. border guard me help or says a cover and it's coming go. but the border will always need protecting because it's secret binder injury like this in mere cut on a finger can be extremely dangerous. lots of poisoning or sips. this is one of the most common conditions and causes of death worldwide. because phipps is often times not immediately identified while you will time is lost. a late diagnosis in germany almost costs new york a winter losing 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 a positive mindset. operating an electric, wheelchair. it works well that deal just to live as

a small miracle. he was in an induced coma for 16 days and underwent 8 surgeries. 4 months, it was, i'm certain whether he would survive. he now attend sessions at this clinic, to train his extremely weakened body. not mine. ok, 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 content, i'll just see i'm calm. the 1st thing i had to do was get fits again, rebuild my body off to rebuild my muscles on so that i could do basic things of everyday life. again, seems like brushing my teeth for just getting out of bed and into my wheelchair. what have you out of state also that's from that enlarge through the full started so innocently was here. look 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. so comes, it turned into

a strip to cockle infection which ultimately triggered subsets as far that i can, you can see the small, small cot here. and that then developed into a blister over night like to line up closet. and because the inspection 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 in 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. so he had to have big was a really serious case and he is actually off i a whole fessor device among the oaks,

attending physician at the rehabilitation clinic. his major concern early on was that the residual limbs and the skin protecting them properly. only then was 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 deaths could be avoided with the correct diagnosis and appropriate treatment of substances. the severe inflammation of the body, it's triggered by bacteria entering the bloodstream via an injury. for example. substance occurs when the immune system overreacts damaging the body instead of fighting the infection left on checked it attacks 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. this house can come in most cases, at least the desk because it does not recognize properly and to find 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 could need both psychological and physical help. so that's very nice. well done. chip. i didn't help that work too well. yes. you do that on your own line. i think it in on the side. it does say i think what makes them different is that he doesn't look back. he only looks a head at 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 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, then 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 a no pressure points, no pain. nice. every step takes enormous effort both physically and mentally. one day deal been 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. it's good to talk to my old life. is this 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 an early retirement. and i feel strange again just feels wrong. coolants on,

on the thoughts off me sign i one to buy, go if you did it so that was the selfish i didn't crush your hand. did i know standing will king deal once to reclaim as much of his old life as possible? despair and doubt, all his constant companions escaped it another day. i have many entered demons, new database that i couldn't find on time. there are days when i could just scream at the wall of mine, 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 this has to must be part of questions like why me, why, why not someone else on the above all is the question. who's to blame? that's always the thing though it is 5. these are the 2 most important questions that i tried to ignore all the time because there is no answer to them,

and they don't get me anywhere either on give me self. and so i definitely after 6 months, feel good in telling is allowed to leave the clinic. he is happy to be back in his home and be offended and tries to apply what she has lunch during his rehabilitation. fitness kate, seem to see a lot is possible about a loss is no longer possible. and so we did a lot simply has to be planned with the help of family members. when it starts with getting one church at the fridge and farm, i have to use my wheelchair to get food, the stuff, and then be able to get to the top 10. there's difficulties in the morning to sort of using toothpaste when brushing my teeth. i started the tooth brush, can't be too far away so that i can still reach it. this is part of everyday life. i've said some of what i taken for granted has suddenly become an obstacle then. and some things are just impossible. dlc then telling doesn't give off. if something doesn't work right away. he sees a o as a set of physical challenges. something he used to see counts when he was younger,

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 side um, replaced in glenn the in the back country, the steeper, the better the renewal limits before it can limit for yeah, and i was also a passionate dancer. and so 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, or 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 use to share up on that that i have to make sure before i leave the house that lift gate or the 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 and the hospital off to his amputation with the 2 children. so kindly by the okay, we came in to get logged through. the 1st thing saturday night instead was dead where your hands and i said i told you remember, yeah, but then very soon it was just like, always under the place we all staged erased with the wheelchair setting and ran alongside me. leah pulled the little one was sitting on gaylon's lap. so yes, it was just like always. gail conduct exam dressed every coffee together in the late afternoon after 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, a revenue for emotional support. this went to home, 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 have them yet. so i buy them guilds, high tech pros, dc's costs thousands of years. the paid full mainly by his health insurance. some a diety is an imposing principle in german society. the healthy pay for the sick, the ritual, the pool. 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 school as soon as most of you now you don't have so

much play in them anymore. they are 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 on the to the things will continue to progress. if one improve doesn't work, there's always another good to finish and finding that new approach becomes the important thing to do. the most important thing is to keep going to keep out to the london has an air pollution problem and has started several initiatives to reduce people's exposure to find just cars are 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 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 are support restrictions to protect the environment. others are getting increasingly fed up. they were 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. spending probably 6 minutes and crossing now from where we started from. and

i could have done a left out from where your office is really, really frustrating, and what we're just waiting for 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 welcome quite to get it for the 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 a discovery call driving a lot of them. uh to make it really a horrible experience with neo goods. as people jump on to the public transport system and disease isn't really wrong about that. london's mayor has made no secret of the fact that he wants fewer cars on the streets. when people to walk cycle used 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, they were fierce and loud protest. one of the protesters was building contractor. danny met his cards were not deemed clean enough under the regulations.

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 got 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 pain allies 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, you should, excessive levels of air 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 always have people who are more valuable as easy as 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 roundabout service. more stuff from god for 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 these nears, has destination. after yet another trip built with the tours. when i

think of seagulls, 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 decade, the total city is attracted flocks of seagulls. they've been learned by dumps and bins groaning with food, checked away by residents and taurus, while the birds skid more and more comfortable, some romans are getting increasingly annoyed. now the suggest administration has come up with a new idea to tackle the invasion of the sea birds sun new sets in room, and within a time for the singles in that own slice of paradise were abundant. tourists provide a balance of policies around 50 years ago. there wasn't a single see go around here, but now the, every with the romans have mixed feelings through the pretty. i like it when they spread their wings and the look at you as a fair talking to you worlds when joy, the company. and i will buy, mia,

it's all it's up in us last night when the delivery came in 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 out 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 bed 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 there is simple to go beyond that, then that may be, i mean, just because it goes become afraid because there is a predator nearby that could harm their young and you don't get false unless they don't they sense it's not a safe place for their young and leave their area to be single downloads on us to

go without the video. it'd be clear. even the big the goal is keep a healthy distance from those close to that of yeah, so the pray return every 2 weeks. they don't one goals. they just scare them away. flavio has a soft spot for that, 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. as well as certainly seems the seagulls have tried to make the internal 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
