escaped a treatment center in library, causing panic in the streets. this, as dr. city are losing the battle against the disease. -- doctors say they are losing the battle against the disease. also coming up for you this hour, going to the vanilla capital of the world in madagascar are to look at the troubling state of the farmers there. you can see how -- hell has no. as a woman scorned. -- has no fury as a woman scorned. that is from shakespeare. but it is true on their stormy relationship. the president just up found out about it today.

first, reports on whether a cease-fire deal has been reached on the fighting ukraine. the cranium president said he and russian vladimir putin had agreed to a truce, but that was immediately shot down by the kremlin. to try to get a bit more clarity on all of this, let's go to m ariopol. is there a cease-fire or not? >> the kremlin says it is not in control of the separatist fires -- fighters, so it would not be in the business of agreeing to a cease-fire. meanwhile, on the ukrainian website, there was a change of language. they said first that they had

agreed to a cease-fire, and then changed it to talking about the agreement for a cease-fire and reached an understanding. here in mariupol where i am, the scene here has not really changed for the past few days. the ukrainian soldiers manning the checkpoint said they have heard of the cease-fire announcement but they are still manning the checkpoint. the rebels have taken over 40 kilometers to the east of mariupol. i have not heard of any fighting going on today. >> also today after this confusion came out about the

cease-fire, the ukrainian prime minister began using some very inflammatory language to talk about russia. talk about that. >> yes he said that russia is a terrorist state. very strong language there. of course karen ukrainians trying to continually -- of course, the ukrainians trying to continually insist that russia is invading. there are thousands of soldiers on the ground and lots of evidence to support that claim. we have been seeing what the ukrainian fighters are saying about what they are up against. they are using this kind of inflammatory language with good reason. russia has stoked this invasion in the east of the country. but he's made some very odd promises full to be said that ukraine would build a wall between self and russia along the border. he did not mention that 400 kilometers of that order in the

region between ukraine and russia is firmly in the hands of her russian separatists against whom the ukraine military shows every instance of retreating from. >> u.s. president barack obama is in estonia today, a stopover on the way to the nato summit. it is meant to reassure the baltic states in the face of russia's move on ukraine. >> i've come here first and foremost to reaffirm the commitment of the united states to the security of estonia. as nato allies, we have article five duties to our collective defense. that is a commitment that is amber cabal. it is unwavering. it is eternal. -- that is a commitment that is unbreakable will stop it is unwavering. it is eternal.

>> and there is more on the threat of russia to estonia itself. >> estonia has been independent and in the popular imagination russia has always been there, a clear and present threat and danger to it. when barack obama says an attack against one is an attack against all come a which is what is enshrined in article five of nato, to assyrians that -- to estonians, those are not idle words. estonians wanted more. they want permanent nato troops on estonian territory. however, that contravenes what is called a 1997 russia-nato funding act. it basically says -- founding act. it basically says you cannot have permanent troops, substantial combat forces, station on a former soviet bloc territory. they are continuing to abide by that agreement. what obama said, yet knowledge there had been a sense of complacency in recent years and nato. and what happened in ukraine and

the crisis there has given nato an opportunity to look with fresh eyes at what it can do to reiterate this commitment. that is exactly what he was there to do today. there was a call for nato and for the west as well. >> president obama was questioned by many journalists about its strategy in regard to isis. that came as the white house confirmed a new video released by the greek -- the group did indeed show the beheading of a second journalist. stephen sotloff was kidnapped in syria last year. he was also an israeli citizen but cap that under wraps. here is what president obama had to say. >> it is going to take time for us to be able to roll them back and it will take time for us to

be able to form the regional coalition that is going to be required so we can reach out to some of the sunni tribes in the areas that isis has occupied, and to make sure that we have allies on the ground in combination with the airstrikes that we have already conducted. the bottom line is this. our objective is clear. that is, to degrade and destroy isil so it is not only no longer a threat to iraq and the region but to the u.s. but many western governments have now said they will take firm measures against their citizens -- >> many western governments have now said they will take for measures against isis. >> there is room -- there is affirmed measures against isis. iraq's human rights measured --

minister said the group is a problem that extends far beyond iraq's borders. >> it is not an iraqi phenomenon, isis. it is a transnational organization and there is an imminent danger for all the countries of the world. >> many isis members have been drawn to the middle east across -- from across the world, including the west. many governments are weighing options to deal with jihadist nationals when they return home. >> they are prepared to use brute force. the risk of those using violence israel. >> particularly among western governments. neither hesitate to kill inopportune moment when under military attack. >> the message of the group is

obviously trying to say that when it says it's going to do something, it follows through. they did say if america does not stop its airstrikes then it would behead another hostage. i think it wants to show that it means business. >> the u.s. and its allies are taking the fight to it -- to isis in iraq, and have been invited to do so by the syrian government. plus with wide stretches of territory under its control, isis has proved to be a terrorist threat like no other. >> next to liberia where any ebola patient escaped a treatment center, prompting panic in the streets of the capital. this after the charity doctors without borders has come out with the announcement that they are losing the battle against the disease. >> the man in the red shirt has just escaped from a quarantine center in monrovia after testing positive for ebola. he had been roaming through local markets in search of food.

>> [yelling] >> and angry mob closes in on the patient as he tries to push them away. local residents are scared by the government's failure to contain the disease. when health workers arrived on the scene, they had a hard time catching the patient. after cornering him, doctors tried reasoning with him to no avail. eventually, they had to pin him to the ground and force him into a truck to take you back to the treatment center. the facility was so crowded they have had to turn away ebola victims. the liberian government announced on saturday it will open five new treatment centers. medical workers say they will need 10 times more in order to keep those infected off the

streets. >> in stark contrast to the pictures you just saw there a british nurse infected with ebola while working in sierra leone has now been discharged from a london hospital. fully recovered after a 10 day treatment with the experiment told drug zmapp. he said he felt incredibly lucky , saying that he wished the care he had been provided with could be available in act -- in africa as well. apple is fighting back after it icloud torch service was hacked. icloud was the source of the leak of naked photos of celebrities, including the actress jennifer lawrence. but apple says that was linked to targeted attacks on specific users login details rather than a general security breach. charlotte hawkins has more. >> doing its best to repair its image just days before a new product launch, apple has admitted some of its most famous customers accounts were hacked but declared it icloud system was not to blame for the leak of
