but the situation of course is only going to get worse if nothing is resolved here because italy has doubled down on blocking. other n.g.o.s ships picking up people and also says as soon as we get our boat back we're going out on further missions what's interesting though is that both sides agree on what the solution is and that's that europe needs to find a way to make sure that the migrants are coming to italy shores don't stay in italy and are shared among european countries i mean thank you so much for that thank you . woman who died of colon the democratic republic of congo may have carried the disease into rwanda as according to a report published today by the world health organization the public health bodies now describing congo's outbreak as an international health emergency the warning comes after the 1st of all the case was confirmed in goma a city of more than a 1000000 people on the border with rwanda. or one does border with the democratic republic of congo health workers in yellow vests checking travel as temperatures before allowing them to enter just across the borde

well the 1st round of votes was not conclusive or although social democratic candidate from italy came very close 7 votes were missing so now they're in the 2nd round of votes if that's not conclusive they'll be a 3rd one so this might take all afternoon but we still expect the social democratic candidates to come out with a victory for the gunboats also expected in just told us that's often for us in strasburg thank you very much. now to some other stories making news around the world the u.n. says an airstrike on a migrant center in libya that killed at least 44 people quote amounts to a war crime more than 130 were wounded in the attack in the capital tripoli libya's u.n. back government has blamed the attack on the south styled libyan national army which has denied it. demonstrators burned tires and blocked roads across israel to protest against the shooting death of an 18 year old ethiopian israeli by an off duty. policeman on sunday activists have been angered by perceived systematic discrimination by police towards israel's ethiopian minority. russia says details of a fire that

sea for reporting from sicily italy thank you well elsewhere in italy migrants keep arriving undeterred by the country's increasing hostility to them some though only wish the island of lampedusa after a charity rescue ship defied orders by authorities to stay away while the fight to bring migrants to shore and to safety has returned lampedusa to the spotlight in europe's battle over migration. lampedusa island of recreation island of refuge. has the closest european shore to the coast of libya lampedusa takes in several 100 asylum seekers in an average month those who survived the treacherous journey across the mediterranean. nosie claims as many lives as this. helps coordinate rescue missions for the german n.g.o.s see watch he was on my produce when the italian government attempted to block their ship from bringing 53 rescued migrants a short. sea watch was kept and all of our kids have defied the italian coast guard and forced her way into the harbor she was arrested for act. what we're seeing is that the criminalization of sea rescue missions isn't stopping people from coming from

so then do you have any sympathy for italy's position hasn't the e. u. in many ways let italy bear the brunt of the refugee crisis at least in the mediterranean. yeah i mean there's two important points that i did that i think are worth making in this debate i'm. first is i don't think this is a room a crisis of refugee numbers this is a crisis of refugee a commendation and refugee policy. this is why we experience the backlash after two thousand fifteen because the e. u. hasn't been able to practice real solidarity. and provide an infrastructure that helps countries stem the influx of migrants i don't think it's americans themselves. we'd have to take a hard look not at securing our borders and making sure fewer migrants com we have to take a hard look at european solidarity. and how we will manage refugee influxes in the future because this is not a story that is over now this is going to be something that we will deal with in the future as well. and if we just close our eyes and say okay ones if -- we keep the refugees outside of european borders t

and italy opted for criminal . they said that they were -- that they had a political movement, that they believed in -- and that they considered themselveses a nation and therefore, they weren't terrorists they weren't just randomly committing acts of terror. and it was a very interesting thing they've all ended up spending three of them spent maximum amount of time in prison actually two of them spent the maximum amount of prison, and two of them ended up escaping because italy has a very different system of justice after you're in jail for a few year you're allowed to get furloughs it is like you're in the army and you can go away from the weekend. and tourism went away and they didn't come back. and a side note one of the most interesting people i interview -- i shouldn't say most interesting most -- surprising to me -- because i written a book but this was first international terrorism book so i not expect o find myself who was international arm dealer who shows up in the middle of this story and one of the guy

italy is a major economy in the euro zone, greece is relatively tiny compared to italy, to their debt market and economy, so the disruption that could cause is much bigger. the pressure for italy to abide by the eu barring rules is immense. we are in a moment and reached in the european design that's not suddenly at a high, said their attentions and very strong pensions, and each country has its own tensions. after decades of lax financial management, government promised brussels and a tighten up its finances. there hope of great prosperity is going to the rest of sacrifice for fortune of europe as a whole. tweet @richardbra nson "delighted to share that @virgingalactic has taken a huge step to becoming the first ever publicly listed human spaceflight company.

ththe interior minister doesn't want migrants in italy. after r his far right party came to power, the government t passd legigislation to stotop housing asylum seekers. he pledged to shut down the reception center in sicily. once one of the largest migrant camps in europe. >> i am pleased that we have released the country from this problem. the land and houses were worthless. now it will be a normal part of sicily. >> the centers for hundred pink and orange houses were built as homes for him -- for the u.s. military. it housed 4000 people who crossed the mediterranean in the hope of a better life. protesters sayay they can't help to prepare immigrants for crossing into europe. >> we are protesting that because of the closure because of the modalities. they didn't take into account the needs of the most vulnerable. ththey just transferred the most vulnerable people that we were caring for to another place that is similar but it is not suitable for their needs. >> most of the migrants housed here have been moved to smaller and more control
