This kind of expulsion is known as push back and is in legal once they are angriest migrants have the right to apply for asylum there apparently pushbacks dont take place just on water but also on land aid groups criticize this practice as openly breaching of the European Human Rights Convention the thought of being deported scares many refugees in greece could they be next i reporter traveled to a refugee camp near the salome came to find out. Its a refugee camp near thessaloniki. Adele aotearoa from the Refugee Organization new sore is looking for clues for socalled pushbacks Asylum Seekers are said to have been illegally picked up by greek police and deported to turkey. Yes its happening how often. If the czech woman with syrian roots has been on the trail of these illegal deportations for months. These refugees confirm the recent weeks many young men have been taken away and thats why they wont leave the camp out of fear of deportation but the refugee aid worker knows this is against International Law. So if the people are deported legally ok like we can discuss about it we can talk about that but its by the law while the pushbacks are not following the law its like a completely illegal stance of leave these private videos are proof of the illegal pushbacks these people say the greek coast guard stranded them on the lifeboat not far from the Turkish Coast nearby. The greek government denies the accusations in writing they tell that they comply with International Law and arent supporting anyone illegally the city of tesla nikki in northern greece the greek Turkish Border is 300 kilometers away refugees who make it here can find help in this empty building on the outskirts of the city the clinic is organized by the german nurse rose hansen to care too she says police have cracked down refugees.

The volunteers provide them with food and medicine. Its quiet today along the section of the border i delve volunteers several weeks a year in this region she cant look away she wont. If they come in here. They are no named their no one because nobody knows about them so whatever happened to them they can die there and we have no clue that theyre dying there. She meets muhammad from iraq in a shelter close to the border you know early June Mohammed and his wife and children trying to get to greece at night with the help of a smuggler once there they were caught and locked in a cell with other migrants they were denied an asylum application and a lawyer he reports that other refugees were forced to help push them back across the river so how to farm.

Even in their own villages Migrant Workers are unpopular. But she but some people think we have a lot of money but this money is harder than not i miss my children and grandchildren terribly sometimes i get to video call them but its very expensive so ive really got to split up my roaming data well in order to see their faces throughout the month of this year. Yes equally stefanutto has heard of such experiences often hes a member of the European Parliament and deals with the struggles of Migrant Workers currently the number of workers returning is on new.

Rooms used for surgery were turned into makeshift i. C. Use people able to breathe endless work and list fear. I was scared but it wasnt just me we were all scared at 1st we had no idea we didnt even know how the virus was transmitted and we were lucky in so much information and. Believes the heroes who kept day to day life going to doctors and care workers they all deserve this little gift and the demand is huge. We received about 200 requests all at once it was a lot of work because i wanted to answer all the emails and they still call to ask if we have 3 spots. Where you are the better italy. A great act of solidarity starts involved. With more than 5000 registrations its met with much gratefulness fabio sako from the tourist board also wants to welcome the hero to his home to thank them personally in the hopes that from now on things will be looking up.

The challenge now is to preserve and develop. The commission of. Giovanni patrol is one tells of the countless gifts cakes and letters that were brought to the hospital all this has kept them in the fight. Noisy maybe kenyans in 2021st thought that we could cure everything instead of an old iris ill just say been. Issued is that we still have a lot to learn in the fall. But one thing is for sure. In this town tomic everyone is in the same boat. Giovanni put the agrees. And if everyone follows the rules now its only might be spared a 2nd wave. The albatross is the largest flying bird in the world and it has many abilities that would make it a perfect buy it can travel huge distances and spot objects from several kilometers away one thing i would also love is fish. And now scientists on the cross islands and over seas french territory in the southern indian ocean im making use of all these unique features theyre working together with the albatross and the fight against Illegal Fishing this is also part of the birds own adventure. With a wind span of up to 3 and a half meters the wondering albatross may be the most majestic sea bird in the Southern Hemisphere and one of its most endangered species. On the french causing islands an archipelago in the Southern Ocean only why miss his team equipped the birds with transmittance since last autumn theyve been tracking the flight of the albatross says why miss cage has been fascinated with the sea birds ever since she was a boy. There albatross is flights of 70 to 80 kilometers an hour over stormy seas without flapping their wings when they use the winds to get around but its true theres something majestic confront tussock about the flight of the albatross measures when you go to the sea every ornithologist dreams of catching a glimpse of one. Such encounters are increasingly rare because the number of wandering albatrosses has shrunk dramatically in recent years. Researchs estimates that there are only some 25000. 00 left worldwide albatrosses often follow boats in search of food. For the 1st time i saw when i was on the boat taking those over to the crows at islands the bird just kind of know where the sea was choppy and we saw the arbitrageurs broach the boat pass over its a fly alongside the vessel is observe those and then vanished again into the sea. The birds mainly follow fishing boats unfortunately many fisherman cast kilometer long lines equipped with dozens of hole while trying to take the bait albatrosses often swallow the hooks and die a painful death the boats they usually unlicensed and dont send out the required automatic identification signals they also dont employ Safety Measures like weighted lines which can be immediately pulled down far below the waters surface marine biologists are concerned. About is not a problem with International Waters is their rights free zone and International Organizations dont have the legal instruments to force these boats to stop their own authorized fishing or. So on the why miss cage and his colleagues launched their ocean sentinel Research Project to find another way of combating Illegal Fishing theyve now fitted 170. 00 birds with radar transmitters which can even track down boats that arent sending out the required signal. This here is a transmitter you know it has a g. P. S. On turner which allows it to locate the exact spot where the radar was detected. The unutterable turn a transmits the data directly to us via satellite. The scientists compared the data gathered by the birds with that from authorized fishing boats they found that around 30 percent of the vessels out at sea lacked permits the research is saying there are indications some of the bait saw sailing under chinese and spanish lacks an accusation that spains director general of Sustainable Fisheries categorically rejects the basis that we are operating the solution whatever instruments that were flying the flag of spain are welcome sure we sure we all of them and all that we are not to were off their facilities but the ornithologists trust their Research Fast certain that data could help to stop Illegal Fishing and save albatrosses in the process. There were no if we can provide evidence that theres a high mortality rate of a certain place and most of the boats have their Identification System switched off if you are we can prove that with the recent data the guts stuff forward from all the front i mean of. His work with wondering albatrosses has turned. Into a conservationist as well as a researcher he knows theres not much time left to save the species so hes using his data to reel in an Illegal Fishing and ensure albatross has continued to soar above the crossing the islands. We now take you to central russia where lots of villages are dying out Job Opportunities are rare so many young people move to the cities one such religion is getting a look at my son our reporter visit had this sparsely populated place and there he met after.
