Thats not happening any time soon outside the new camp the immediate result of this operation waiting under the scorching midday sun to be registered and test. For the coronavirus the greek government is making it clear this is the only option for the refugees where they can be provided for and where their paperwork will be resumed. Today we are doing the obvious thing is a democratic and Civilized Society migrants are being moved from the streets to the new camp from being abandoned to being cared for from hygienic dangers to control and protection of public how.

The situation is really desperate for the displays in one of the primary schools in the heart of the town of seeing. A very cross in the school is packed with up to 25 minutes they ease congestion food deliveries yes come but again some say they do not and now off during the day and they are also concerned that they have nowhere to go back to because their homes have either been damaged very much by the floods or totally destroyed so it will take them a while to go back and piece their lives together but right now the nongovernmental organizations that are caring for the displeased people in the city not a state which seemed is that you straight it was is there up to thought to 1000 people displaced and affected by the floods in just this state alone so you can understand the magnitude of the problem but the main concern of the agencies right now the residents of up to 18 villages that have been totally cut off from the rest of the state by the floods they have tried to have a quite some people but many of the people from these villages are not willing to leave their herds and their crops that are still under water behind and they are concerned for those people mostly. Tropical storm sallys bringing torrential rain to the u. S. State of georgia and the carolinas as it moves north from the gulf coast it has already caused chaos in florida and alabama where at least one person was killed nearly 500000 homes and businesses are without power the storm has been downgraded to a tropical depression but Officials Say its not over yet with warnings of widespread flash flooding. Air quality along parts of the western u. S. Coastline is the clearest its been in several days allowing firefighters a better chance of tackling the fires of ravaging the states of california oregon and washington crews are battling dozens of devastating fires which have claimed at least 34 lives since august cooler temperatures and the chance of rain are expect that the help efforts but authorities warn that warm and dry weather will return over the weekend smoke from the west coast fires has drifted as far as europe while hazardous air pollution continues to blanket Portland Salem and bend well reynolds joins us live from pioneers square in downtown Downtown Portland so rob what is the latest because it does seem like theres a small window of opportunity for the authorities to really try to tackle the fires. Yes thats right barbara i can report from this Vantage Point that theres been an visible improvement in the smoke situation the sun is shining brightly through the merc than ive seen it in days and days and years even a hint of blue in the sky portland still has the worst air quality on earth according to the measurements that i checked just a few moments ago but dangers particularly matter in the air is far far lower in level than it has been in several. Dave so thats the good news other positive news is the weather there is rain in the forecast heavy rain expected to come in from the pacific that will really help the firefighters with their job of battling the many blazes that are still burning in this state the negative side of that of course theres always another on the other hand is that there could be flash flooding especially in the areas that have burned with debris flows coming down canyons and steep hillsides so people who live in those types of areas have been warned to really be on their guard. Excuse me so while oregon firefighters are steadily. Working at containing the fires down in california its a different story theres a fire burning east of los angeles its been called the bobcat fire and its proving to be very fierce very stubborn burning in some very difficult terrain 17000. 00 hectors burn there have been evacuations in suburban areas outside los angeles and so that is one that is giving firefighters a lot of difficulty and despite the improvement in the in the smoke a lot of people are still suffering in especially people with lung condition so the authorities Health Authorities are telling people if you can stay inside please do so and probably why are the wildfires so intense and widespread this year because of course that not that im common in that part of the United States but whats different this year. I think theres a growing consensus among scientists that manmade Global Warming human caused Global Warming has intensified and changed the nature of the fires in this part of the world there was a study done 2 years ago by. A California Science Institute that predicted that 100000 hectors would burn every year starting in 2050 well this year 30 years before schedule more than 120000 hectares have burned and the fire season is just beginning and lets not forget barbara that this is not restricted to north america we saw those terrible wildfires in australia late last year and into the new year we know that at the pont the now region normally. A marshy region of brazil is dry and burning and there are fires in siberia that that are emitting vast clouds of smoke so really its a worldwide phenomenon but the sign of a changing climate barbara. With the latest there from Portland Oregon thank you. Still to come here on aljazeera a young man killed when supporters of ivory coasts president clashed with rival protesters schools reopening here the shadow this fight confusion and changes to coronavirus for. Some fine and sunny weather across Central Europe but the rossum long live the storms in place because not a little system of it was. Baltic states this area of very strong winds brought down some trees and power lines in finland thats making its way further east was some west of whether theyre just coming into the western side of russia meanwhile of the western side of space 3 portugal lost it larry of low pressure hit again bringing some wet weather in over the next couple days on top of the low on this one here by grace this is become known as a medic a medic a storm janis bring you some violent winds into grace over the next 24 to 48 hours and some torrential rain because say as much as maybe 2300. 00 millimeters a fright possibly even more over the next few days and some very strong winds winds gusting it says of 80 to 100 Kilometers Per Hour so thats fridays pitch as some very heavy rain that will be life threatening floods in the picture there that wetter weather stays in place not just a little further east was headed towards crete as we go on through sas day elsewhere largely tried to central parts of europe the showers spreading their way across spain by they state into france and all the parts of africa a few showers there into Northern Areas of morocco and wet for much of west africa.
