11:00 am
horse like your mastic swimming here, is that documentary? see it on our ti? ah, said i, the u. k. confirms it's deployed troops to poland border with bellows full potential assistance, as has been described to also to strengthen the frontier. as thousands of my groups remained camped out in di conditions that hoping to enter the you admit to build of asylum seekers on the bellows, poland border ortiz, maria finacialow speaks with people smuggler who takes migrants into western europe and gives us an exclusive insight into this shady business they don't get caught in germany, but they put them down an asylum centers. and after a while to get permits because they flow the id cards so they can't be deported. his german authorities don't know where they come from. the mid rising coven case,
11:01 am
his austria now is announced plans for nationwide restrictions, but only for those who aren't vaccinated. and it's by far not the only come to, to target those who refused the job. we put the issue up with the bay window and see that seeing, you know, we can see the importance of having the vaccines. however, i think you're just going to different level why needs compulsory. i expect to care workers to be immunized that we have to be careful to not let co bid once again mass a lot of the social issues that are going on. ah hello, kevin o'neill, alive at, i'll teach will des h q. the latest for this 12th of october and one big story dominating again, the polish russian border. what's going on. and the 1st off and britain's confirmed now had sent a group of soldiers, engineers, we think, to poland,
11:02 am
better was bordering in a deal with war. so i made an escalating stand off of a migrants that's already reached the level of the un security council. better us is accusing poland in this way. they are using the crisis to get extra funding from brussels. but several western members of the un security council, packet betters say that countries actually trying to destabilize neighboring countries, an accusation that found little traction with the russian side. we. the current european union members of the security council condemn the orchestrated instrumentalists zation of human beings, or there is a game or for shifting blaine now or european union. remember about the reasons why these people are really, are fleeing their countries, which conscious destroyed, or their country's international organization need to be provided with the immediate and unhindered access to people there in this no problem for journalist, for ins, yos for go to the places where the migrants are placed on,
11:03 am
on the contrary, there is no excess for ins, yos for journalists, fall into years to the areas where the $15000.00, according to some estimates polish girls. i see jesus. well, here is some of the latest images that came in the south room. forgot dark of that camp, a squalid place posted by the bell. russian state board a committee. these pictures thousands of asylum seekers in that particular area we're seeing here with or with a hope to try and get in the e u, but a vain hope it seems to be as well as winter is fast approaching. now back in september, poland introduced a state of emergency on its eastern frontier was better, is effectively banning jo, listen and jose from entering the area, thus hindering efforts to report on the crisis and also crucially to provide aid. instead, 15000 polish soldiers were deployed at the puerto to ensure the migrants could not enter the country. as i said earlier, british soldiers have no been sent there to address situation as well. let's get on top of that. and if i just come in, can take, correspondent charges was dashti is across this from charlotte. what more do we
11:04 am
know about these troops being deployed now by london? well, clearly at britain and poland are very close allies, they have a long history of friendship. and so britain now extending this involvement into what's being seen as a humanitarian crisis is an act of solidarity and support from our westminster. of course pirate has been extremely cool about when it sees as the weapon is ation of migrants by the government in better route and actually all use. it's an effort to destabilize the european union. now bella bruce, of course, obviously denies all of this but britain now a getting involved could be interpreted as an escalation of all of these issues. although. 8 britain is certainly not wanting it to be seen in that way. however, the ministry of defense here in the united kingdom has now announced that a small team of armed forces armed personnel have now been deployed to poland. we're not exactly sure of what small team really means in terms of the numbers,
11:05 am
but they all that to provide engineering support. interesting to see what exact exactly that engineering support may look like. we've also seen a statement from the polish defense minister as well, who says that troops have now joined a reconnaissance mission with their polish counterparts on the board. and now that basically means ascertaining a certain strategic operations and surveying of what options that they may have trying to navigate away out of this humanitarian crisis. now it is indeed a humanitarian crisis by the official figures coming from poland. as some 4000 migrants have been waiting on the country's border with a further 15000 believed to be waiting and minx to get to the ab border as well. the polish government, of course, have had a very hard line on the board to those around $15000.00 personnel creating almost a militarized as zone building a wire fence wire, an approved even the construction of a border wall as well. very visual,
11:06 am
hostile tactics coming from poland on the border there. so it will be really interesting. now to see what difference does the british government getting involved really make what we see a change of tactic? well, we see anything really different happening on the board to, particularly for these migrants. but as all of this is now happening, also tension and concerns ratcheting up about, well the us in the u. k. a now viewing in a troubling way, allegedly that the russian troops have now moved into the area of russia, has apparently dispatched power troopers to the inside of the border. that is apparently thought to be a temporary drill with the deployment of the british troops. they will be interesting to see how the international community react to it. and crucially, whether they see it as an escalation. yeah, show the same. so we update the let's get more and it will talk to paul natalie in
11:07 am
the story. northrop full, remy payoff and a guest on this program. hey, the interesting, this is now ok. we're hearing that moment sunny a small group of engineers and i was looking online to try and work what combat engineers actually do. saves a construct bridges. what we knew that they clear barriers with explosives. well that's not a problem there at the moment, the detective avoid mind, that's not a problem at the moment, and they deal with environmental hazards. that's not a problem at the moment. well too much, i suppose that's not an exhaustive list, but what would army engineers or beta small group be doing up the board, bearing a mind presence, not even part of the a you at the moment. what's it about? 2 things really, i think primarily will be about bolstering of the, the ball defense. i suspect, an offering engineering support, but equally, i think it will send out a message to britain. i believe that has a dog in this fight because when many of these, my guns being interviewed, they said that britain will be their final destination. and obviously we have
11:08 am
a problem at the moment which is going on in the channel, which i was argue is just as bad as was going on on the polish better russian bulger. but doesn't seem to get this much media coverage, particularly a missed call to one of the last 24 hours as well. oh, oh it's, it's absolutely appalling. and if you these my, into and on the polish pollution bull that many of them are going to make their way to britain, they will no, no use the channels as well. so britain or the dog in the space. but what i would say was also sort of the over that as well. front with what was standing, who came to who here with britain that go into the a you to paula? that would be other way around. i think britain probably will come directly to poland. but what is interesting about the situation is that it's sort of changing you policy because the was very much opposed to holding both walls and prior to this crisis. and now the polish are going to build a wall on the belushi ball that you were saying that they may well miss as well. but what i will say is, what we want to see is more george or not war war. we don't want to see more
11:09 am
posturing on this. and in many ways, i would argue that mister lucas jenko holds many of the aces he holds to the cards . and this because he was very much dependent on bush and gas and what you like gosh, runs through belushi, they turned off the pikes coming up to when the you could find itself and a lot of trouble in the will. there are other options. of course, you know, the stream to this not being brought on stream, yet again, that a site could these engineers, could it be that the fit end of the wedge? you think it is just as it appears to be? there's nothing more to it. it's a small group of engine is coming to help us something. so i don't think move on to see this escalate any further. we've got posturing on both sides. we had to train an exercise by russia where a poetry put in the area yesterday. we had the to warplanes why all the only a couple of days ago over the region. so i think it's posting on both sides, but the people who are suffering at the moment of those migrants and there needs to be people getting down the table and solving the issue before when really kicks in
11:10 am
and the policies will start piling. are you surprised that there are other e u member states, though before britain pitched in probably not know, you know, we, we, britain can be quite full, right. when's what, what it wants to be and i was argue the engineers of the world, and therefore they will be both older fence, but to say, you know, we don't want to see this escalate because the people who we don't just of the most of those migrants who, you know, desperately trying to get into your union, but equally at same time, you know, this poem can't give way on this because if it goes, it will just encourage more to cope. so, you know, it's between a rock and a place that you say the pictures that these people were showing it just stuck in this wilderness by about why offense with winter coming. awful poll, we got to leave, you know, but thanks for got into his story. northrop, for me pay as you have a good evening just this kind of thing. we're saying at the border there is not at
11:11 am
all isolated as paul was saying, just now the movement of people with currently seeing the better was poland border is happening elsewhere at a much larger scale because of the years at influx of people fleeing conflicts in the middle east began years ago, as we've reported over the years there and i want to stablish roots to, to get into western europe. his map popular roots starts from pakistan and afghanistan. then they slowly make their way through eastern europe before may be branching off to italy. may be carrying on to germany. in fact, the u. n. says the 75000 migrants of travel through bozeman and hertz governance since 2018. well, next, an exclusive rather shelter one. those should we say our t 's maria phenomena spoke to a people smuggler who was offering to take migrants into northern germany. and this is what he had to say you others through. i think these people are
11:12 am
legally across the board because that governments did not allow them 20 years, refusing illegal method. they tried to flee and get as quickly as possible to europe in countries like germany, switzerland. some of them are on the run 3 to 4 years as soon as they cross that border and get into germany, it's a done deal and they are free to travel anywhere within the european union. they don't get caught in germany, but they put them down in asylum centers. and after a while they get permits because they flow their id cards that he can't be deported as german authority. don't know where they come from. which basically we were trying to help them find a better life. otherwise they most likely would have been caught, put in some kind of asylum center and then reported back to their home countries. now, as soon as they crossed the border and get to germany and they are free, it was scary. the 1st time i did this adrenalin fear police drone arrests, a lot of my friends got caught while transporting them. migrants were sent back and they, my friends, went to prison. most of the activities had done during the night. there were wild
11:13 am
animals, you wait and hedges or canals until you cross over that kind of thing. we came across all kinds of migrants from algeria to nicea egypt. i don't know, but there were all kinds which we honestly transported from the gel gina to cause in. whereas others trick them stole from them, left them on the side of the road, which we stole the money from them. we got no, it was who. when you look at them, they look mostly poor and don't look like terrorists. i've become involved in this business over time for many years, having known some people quite as here a lo, so it is what it is. so for transporting them, you get paid. well, while simultaneously helping some one, it's $300.00 to $500.00 euros per person. we caught up with maria after that and asked him more about the interview and the risks at these migrants are prepared to take. i remember how surprised i was to 1st hear that to max over not pays. we'll name to around 80 people across the board and but the price is between $3500.00.
11:14 am
you were the person that we helped. he didn't tell us the truth, but i just couldn't understand why would he lie? but later on camera, he admitted what he was doing during the interview. he was trying to deliberately diminish these numbers for security reasons. but in all other aspects, facts and details he gave us. i can tell you, he was quite honest with my job in the last few years, at least with the transport migrants along with my team from bridge l. gina where people had previously transferred them across the serbian border through improvised methods. so we pick them up and transport them, obviously at night through some motor areas. sometimes 510, sometimes 20 mostly tech is in. and the clergy in a region where other people then transported the mom or the password reset. and also for smaller big boats where they would sneak in. they also sometimes travel by laurie. they get under a laurie has a tough road. they come to tech, civil guerria,
11:15 am
basically through the poor country, so to speak like, oh, pania of near. and then they go to croatia, germany and from there elsewhere from turkey, they get transported the bulgaria mobile carriers in the european union to get caught there. they get sent back to turkey because there are no asylum laws allowing them to stay there legally. so they come here because it's easier to migrate from here to the european union, the web covering quite a significant part of the world. and in all trends of countries, let's say from pakistan to germany, you have to understand there are people like macs that you as a migrant have to go and pay as we heard the you and things, something like 70000 people have gone through that country in order to try to get to western europe. why is that? why is it such a popular route? first, it's the shortest possible way to get to be today. but there is another reason both and is also famous for being loyal to these kind of people because of their pat,
11:16 am
of its past, because they still remember how does it feel to be refugee and how does it feel run away from your own motherland. the war there was over more than 25 years ago, but they still remember it. and i can say in a level of society, people still sympathize with refugees and migrants. and another reason, the part from the countries past in the present, the reason the very high level of corruption and very complicated political system and a very high unemployment rate and all day is altogether push so many youngsters down the criminal business while you were filming. and pause in the you sewer managed to speak to migrant student. you who sort of going through that trying to get to western europe and heard 1st time their experience most if you are an illegal migrant and you want to go to europe, you have basically 2 options to go to people like max. but that's in case you have money. i don't, the option is to do it on your own. and i mean, that's really scary. that's more dangerous. you can get caught and no one can give
11:17 am
you any guarantee that you will ever succeed. but still many people choose the 2nd option because they don't have money. they don't have other choice. we asked max to take us on, he's normal journey from a to b. how he usually takes migraines, you know, to the equation border with, in bosnia and on the way there. well we would just try the we saw several groups of micros and we stopped twice. and 1st group was from gun nissan. they left the country 4 months ago, right before the talib came to power there. and another group was from pakistan and they were like 20 people there i was, i was like shocked. and we stopped and talked, and 1st i was so surprised that they were not hiding and asked them why. and they told us they have the official refugee paper is given to them by the boss in the store. it is speaking about how loyal this country is for those people. so if it, if they try to cross the border, they get deported. they can only be reported back to bosnia,
11:18 am
so they don't have to do this whole journey from scratch from pakistan. are you going, going to tell you the value? yeah. how many you try 6 times. please just invoice and then you try again. so you have been walking all the time. when did you leave bucket time right? before you left like 2 years ago. and you still want to go, i don't the one, the one. not going you in bosnia filming for new documentary. yeah. tell us more about that. we were filming a documentary about one serbian guy living in serbian part of both now, who long time ago want to become a priest, but became a soldier instead because the war came to his motherland and he had to defend his family and his country basically. but after the war was over,
11:19 am
more than 25 years ago, he was still looking for it somehow. and this is how he ended up working for companies like black water. and this is how he started traveling to places like iraq, afghanistan, g, booty, israel on, can all, all the countries, many of them in africa, with so called private security missions. so it's very emotional, very actually said documentary about this person. he, he explained to us that he was pushed 1st to doing that to be a soldier. but after that, he got kind of like wor, addiction, so it's a little too much, but hate him. but the raw, at least 2 bigger messages that i want to send. first is that wars are so bad. but the situation in postwar post conflict countries is sometimes even more dramatic. and that should be addressed. and another message which is especially important for me as a piece advocate is that there are so many wars and conflicts in more than world
11:20 am
that people like our main character whose name is to sion will hardly be laughed jobless anytime soon. and that is very sad other use to day now. and in germany, the covert situations taking a grin turn as infection rates continue to break national records with the country reporting its highest daily number of new corona virus cases. since the pandemic began, hospitals were increasing under pressure and authorities calling for urgent action . now he's our europe correspondent. grim grim figures have been coming out of germany over the last 48 hours. really. they've been pretty grim figures for the last few weeks. mark is zada, the leader of the states of bavaria. he's been expressing serious concern about the number of hospital admissions that we've had across germany, saying that the health care system is really creating to its breaking point. fact is, the fact is that the hospitals are full, they are the limits,
11:21 am
both in terms of the workload and the emotional situation. that is why it's important that we act now. and we've also heard from yen spahn, the german health minister, interm health minister. we still don't have a new government here exactly yet. but again, spawn has said the free coven tests will be reintroduced. now they were done away with it a little while ago. and once they were gotten rid of, we saw the numbers start to go up because it had been very easy for german to get to test. if you thought you may have any particular issues, there was one on almost every corner. you go and you get it done is done, and around 1015 minutes, they were then taken away. you could still get test done, but you had to pay for them. and we've seen numbers rise again. this isn't just a german issue though. we're also seeing situations in austria and the netherlands as well, severely restricting the freedoms of those who cannot prove if they've been vaccinated, or in some cases, that they've recovered from coven 19. now in germany,
11:22 am
the vaccination rate is around 67 percent that's lower considerably than the 75 percent. that health experts said countries need to populations need to meet in order for the vaccination to be as successful as it can be. often the laga, even if the situation is different, because so many are vaccinated, it is still not good, especially because not enough citizens have taken advantage of the availability of the vaccine. and that's why we have to continue to be careful. while we're being told here in germany, to avoid large events and limit contacts, certainly all situations that would be not advised if you listen to what the, the robert cock institute of how to say about limiting the amount of contact and limiting the possibility of catching cove it as case numbers right here in germany significantly. well, not too far away from germany. another states suffering reco daily coven cases. now as neighboring, austria, it's prompted the government to bring in special restrictions,
11:23 am
but only for the unvaccinated. i don't see why 2 thirds should lose their freedom, because one 3rd is dithering. for me, it's clear that there should be no log down for the vaccinate it out of solidarity for the unvaccinated. for on monday will be tough restrictions for unvaccinated people in austria to hardest hit regions. that means a lonely be allowed to leave their homes for essential reasons as described, such as to buy groceries or to go to work or see a doctor and the parliament set to decide on the nationwide use of such measures potentially on sunday. a brief look elsewhere on the world of moves being taken. let me tell you about this in singapore. for example, now cove at patients who declined the job will have to pay their own medical bills, regions in germany, limiting restaurants, bars and clubs to only those who are inoculated are of recently recovered from the disease in greece,
11:24 am
visitors to restaurant state services and bags must present vaccination certificates or negative test results, moves here in russia to a course lot going on here to try and deal with stuff. well in saint petersburg that city is imposing mandatory vaccinations for senior citizens at the moment. we discussed the impact of these measures gradually coming on stream more and more around the world. cuz it's such a big story with a panel of guests would be a better way to convince people to another to protect themselves, but also protect others. we emphasized on handwriting and infection control measures and being sensible. no, so i am safe distance and so i just feel that the whole force compulsory and takes it to another level. it just takes away the choice. and i think that's deeply worrying county or the restrictions largely based on trying to prevent transmission or just trying to get the numbers up to make sure more people are vaccinated. as they say circulating society. no,
11:25 am
we want to get the numbers off because if you get the numbers up a number of positive benefits of crew one, the person is protected from severe illness and dying. that's one second, they're most unlikely to end up in the hospital. and then the 3rd, a immunized person is infectious for a short period of time. what we're seeing is a lot of confusion in maybe even some moral panic and hysteria that's coming from a lot of these bubbles and communities that are sharing a concerns about the fears of not being vaccinated or the fears are being vaccinated. i'm way still vulnerable in, in our places what like, you know, patients have visitors come in, you know, there's lots of people coming in to the hospitals and i think is quite unfair to just target those, those health care work. hm. you know and force it in. i think a lot of it when we not really, i mean i went to auntie vaccine. you know,
11:26 am
we can see the importance of having the vaccine. however, i think you're just going to different level way. nice compulsory insensitive places. sometimes one ruble, patients severely, clinically wonderful, etc. we've got to off, but you are safe to manage them. and therefore, if you are operating in that area, you've got to be immunized. certainly, i don't know how many my students are vaccinated or not at universities in the u. k . really like sharing that information. it's going to create a scenario where these passports and these documents really have us looking one way or another at somebody and the social ramifications of this, including the immense inequalities that could come from the treatment of each other . because of these laws and whether people conform or not, i have been talking to a lot of health care workers who have been hesitant about vaccines. a lot of them from missing homes. and i gave them of my time effort and energy, showing them how the vaccine works, like what it does, what it doesn't do,
11:27 am
how to protect them, and in the end, most of them went on to get immunized. so we need to do our homework of inform, advised educators as well. but when connie we, we saw so some of the anger from u. k. care home workers about being told by politicians to get a vaccination. but that will be people who remember back to last spring and the i was fatality numbers in u. k. cow homes who are going to be thinking, if i'm putting my relative in these care homes, i want people to be vaccinated, they're going to be worried and maybe find that behavior selfish. yes, i expect care workers to be immunized because unfortunately, this corona virus can be infectious and could kill the elderly people without your knowing on the day you were infectious, we have to be careful to not let cove it once again. mass, a lot of the social issues that are going on in society that have been a long time affecting people, causing deaths, housing,
11:28 am
long time ambulance weights. there are lots of issues that are underlying this. are we just like coven overtake fewer the government instead of mandatory a covey vaccinations? what would you do to convince people to get a job is not so much about convincing people being and people it be mandatory. i think it's more about giving people the choice and given them all the information that they require and letting them have the choice. yes, strong feelings on all sides of it, but that's what we're talking about. so for all bid, believe my name's kevin, i would as more development. so come in by the way on the big story in the polish by russian border, the seething color. bray will take you through that throughout the course of the evening and check it out. see dot com as well. come out various programs for you in the next 30 minutes between me leaving and collin starting. but from all of us, you have a very good evening. ah, by the panoramic. no. certainly no borders under slide. please.
11:29 am
and you guys as emerge, we don't have authority. we told them of that seen the whole world needs to take action to be ready. people are judgment, common crisis with we can do better, we should be better. everyone is contributing each in their own way. but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenge is great. the response has been massive. so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we're in it together with oh, is your media a reflection of reality?
11:30 am
in the world transformed what will make you feel safe? isolation for community. are you going the right way? or are you being led somewhere? which direct? what is true? what is great? in the world corrupted, you need to descend, who join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. ah, there's a patch of water around me. try a seal island that's in contention between canada and the united states. you know, i think also made my suddenly become optimal for lots are our populations here.
