Number of infections after china and seoul just reported on the record surge in new cases and in israels 3rd election in under a year anyway netanyahu claims victory after taking the lead but his likud party and its allies are still likely to fall short of a parliamentary majority. Im sunni so much god thank you for joining us the European Unions chief executive was enough on the line is on her way to the border between greece and turkey where a new chapter in europes migration crisis is unfolding thousands of refugees have headed to the border region of the town of ed between greece turkey and ball garia thats after ancora set over the weekend that it will no longer stop a migrants in its territory from trying to enter the e. U. But as this next report shows theyve ended up in limbo unable to cross and to greece. And out of options. Migrants make their way through fields heading towards the greek border searching for a way to cross to the other side earlier Turkish Security forces at the official Border Crossings stopped letting people through those migrants forced to turn back are angry. About let is you know we were shown on t. V. How turkey was being its borders i told we could go to the e. U. We were expecting compassion but we got the opposite the greeks treated us like animals. The Greek Military has repeatedly used tear gas to disperse crowds of migrants some responded by throwing stones at the Border Guards the tension is escalating the turkish president. Says turkey is sticking by its decision. Should a couple or since we opened our gates weve been getting one call after another theyre saying close your borders we say no weve made our decision. Many families are now camping out along the ever us river on the border several afghans tell us the groups of migrants were driven here for free in buses provided by Turkish Police in istanbul many used rubber boats to make it across to the greek side they said greek soldiers took their money and their mobile phones and brought them back to turkey. Also had no idea what the place of doing or whats happening between turkey in europe we dont deserve to be treated like this where people to. Us here on the turkish side of the border anger and frustration is growing one migrant says everyone is aiming a weapon towards europe and using the people here as ammunition our correspondent uli hoeness following the story for us on the turkish side of the border with greece. Can you bring us up to date on whats happening where you are how the migrants coping with the situation. Well its been 5 days since turkey gave green light to refugees and migrants to leave for the European Union and since then thousands have gathered here along the greek a border its a very long border 200 kilometers long im in the Tucker Village of doire on right now at the river thats the river running along the border and many people are waiting here they are camping here theyre hoping theyre still hoping to somehow make it and crawl to the other side you can see the trees that behind me that greece people have set up a makeshift shelter. Very many families with children the children are trying to play with whatever they can find but peoples will tell me its quite tough for them especially during the nights when its cold they say they dont have enough to eat not enough to drink even though we saw some volunteers distributing bread a little yeah and some people many people as we hear have already left the area they are heading back to the towns and cities where they came from here in turkey but these people that you can see right behind me about 100 or 200 people they are determined to stay. A lot of the migrants who have tried to go into greece they have been met with with tear gas water cannon i mean what effect is that having do most people say they want to return oh. Well the greek gods have used majerus to keep people away as you said they have been using tear gas quite frequently at the main Border Crossing not far away from here but that Border Crossing journalists have been sent away so its very difficult to tell right now whats the situation like over there they have also used water cannon people now and thats basically the reason people kind of know when to other areas along the border like this one so theyre hoping. Make it across this river but then again once a arrive over that some people here told us peoples phones are being taken away and their money and theyre being sent back here to tacky so whatever way theyre trying to find its dangerous and its risky and they might end up back here in turkey its a dramatic situation and the turkish government is now saying that the e. U. Should expect millions of migrants coming its way can you tell us more about that. Well thats present add on ramping up the pressure on europe. We know what he wants he wants International Support for the situation there in his troops are fighting Syrian Regime troops he also wants your all to share the burden of posting all the refugees he says turkey has taken in nearly 4000000 people from syria and there is another 1000000 waiting at the border he says we call and deal with it anymore so hes now trying his chances hes keeping up the pressure and sees what youre all what the European Union will do next. Correspondent yulia han reporting from the turkish greek border thank you so much. Well further south some migrants are also trying to reach the greek islands that are located off the Turkish Coast one of those islands is less false but after almost 5 years on the frontline of the migrant crisis resistance is growing among locals who say they simply will not taken anymore new arrivals. They made it to the port of mytilene but danger still lies ahead. And angry mob of locals has gathered at the harbor so the boat is not allowed to die this man says. Their ire turns towards the journalists and photographers who refused to leave a scuffle breaks out and a camera man is injured. A few kilometers away near a refugee camp more tension. Refugees who have been stuck on lesbos for months throw stones at police we are not prisoners they shout. One local journalist says it is clear who is to blame for this situation the. People have been helping but there was never any reward it was the opposite residents are increasingly frustrated with the greek government and this is where we are now because. Here at the mori our refugee camp close to miscellany there is no room for new arrivals 20000 people live in a space built to accommodate 3008 organizations have been warning about a humanitarian catastrophe as angry locals blocked access to the camp attacks against employees are becoming more frequent according to the United NationsRefugee Agency were very concerned were calling for an easing of the tensions were the ploy in these terrible and were calling on the government to ensure the humanitarian workers are safe from the variable to continue to do their work tensions are also rising between athens and ankara footage allegedly showing the greek coast guard firing warning shots towards a refugee boat was released by turkey. Greece then accused the Turkish Coast guard of escorting migrant dinghies into greek waters a tit for tat response as the 2 countries struggle to cope with a growing wave of refugees. To the us now democratic president ial candidate joe biden has gotten a big boost ahead of super tuesday former candidates better or work any club char and pete booted judge have all endorsed spite and ahead of todays key slate of primaries democrats and republicans nominate their president ial candidates through primaries and caucuses there is little doubt the donald trump will win the republican nomination but joe biden is one of 5 candidates still in the running for the democratic nomination so what is unique about super tuesday well its the most important of all the primaries because people in 14 states will be voting and under the Current System the more votes a candidate gets the more delegates there are awarded the states with the most democratic delegates up for grabs are california here with 415 and texas with 228 so by the end of super tuesday it should become clearer who the democratic president ial nominee might be well perhaps no other candidate has been banking on super tuesday success more than Michael Bloomberg the billionaire former new york city mayor is hoping an impressive delegate haul in todays primaries can catapult him into contention for the nomination bloomberg has already spent more than half a 1000000000. 00 of his own fortune on his campaign but will the gamble pay off. Mike bloomberg a woman whos maria rallies in Houston Texas here the former new york mayor is presenting himself as the only candidate who can stop donald trump so if you are in someone who talks turkey and who has a record of accomplishments and all the big issues facing our country country and if you want somebody has the resources to be tromped thats made. Of Mike Bloomberg resources in other words his will is a controversial topic among voters some say his money makes him independent others say the billionaire wants to buy the election. Were essentially in the middle of the political side. Science experiment we dont know how this is going to turn out no one has ever thrown this much money out of primary before i dont see that hes trying to buy the election hes using his resources to make a difference for america i say that. He cant be bought is really what that means a nation divided by an age of control president Mike Bloomberg is running on president diddley Expensive Campaign he has spent 300000000. 00 on t. V. Ads he doesnt accept donations relying instead on his own fortune brings people together that means hes spend President Trump in 2016 but up about 66000000. 00 of his personal money on his campaign and his democratic rivals Mike Bloomberg spent already twice as much as Bernie Sanders and joe biden combined thanks to his money Mike Bloomberg seems to be everywhere he has bought 1500000. 00 facebook ads and even paid ordinary people to post messages supporting him on their profiles. The mayor bloomers naca charming and hes not going to make you fall in love with this policy ideas but his ads are thing to behold wonderfully produced the best visuals the best audio hes good at making commercials can he persuade voters that commercials are enough. I dont think so. Super tuesday Mike Bloomberg is on the ballot for the 1st time this primary season some polls put him among the top 3 candidates for now it seems like to speak spending has paid off.

Israels Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu appears to be holding on to a solid lead over his main rival with most of the votes counted after mondays parliamentary election but it also appears says look could party and its allies are likely to fall short of a parliamentary majority to form a Government Official results are expected later today. Some form this is the night of the giant victory. Netanyahu is victorious on so exit polls were announced it wasnt clear whether his alliance of parties would get the most votes his opponent benny gantz leader of the centrist alliance did not concede defeat but he didnt sound that upbeat we saw the lowest campaign in the history of israel where many lies and slanders were spread against us and me personally they thought i would get frightened they thought i would link and im telling you i did not and i will not.

Well as we heard its israels 3rd election in less than a year earlier i asked our correspondent in jerusalem tanya kramer what made the difference this time around compared to the last 2 elections. Why i think whats different this time is she compared to the elections and a poll and insert temba that Benyamin Netanyahu and likud to have the come full to pull lead and that gives him some kind of momentum to really go ahead and go and to build a new coalition but of course as you said in the report as well is that he still falls short of one to 2 seats. We are not yet sue about the final counting there because the results of final results are expected sometime later today and its a very narrow margin so you have to wait whether he needs to look for one or 2 seats to come over that magic number 61 seats out of 120 knesset seats to be able to form a coalition government.
