Developments in spain, where an air France Flight harris is grounded at madrid fair airport over fears a passenger might have symptoms of ebola. The passenger, who traveled from nigeria, was taken to the hospital by an ambulance driver wearing full protective gear. Passengers were able to disembark as normal. This comes hot on the heels of an emergency meeting of Eu Health Ministers who discussed how to tackle the growing crisis. In texas, top questions are being asked over how two nurses could be infected with the deadly virus. Amber vinson was wearing a yellow hazmat suit on her way to emory hospital in atlanta. Two days earlier, she was on this Frontier Airlines plane. She had a slight fever at the time, and notified the centers for disease control, but was allowed to fly anyway. Critics say authorities are not taking enough precautions. We have been told a lot of things that have been wrong. We have been lied to in terms of the preparation in the hospitals. We know this because the nurses are telling us this. There is mounting concern about the spread of ebola on the other side of the atlantic as well. In madrid, a passenger on a flight from nigeria was rushed to the hospital immediately after landing. He had developed a fever during the flight. Authorities are treating it as a suspected ebola case. If confirmed, it would be the second in spain. Meanwhile, Health Ministers in brussels have been debating ways to strengthen europes defenses against the disease, but they say the real challeng is containing the spread in west africa. With suspected new cases of ebola popping up in europe and the u. S. , what does that tell us about the difficulty of containing the deadly disease western mark deadly disease . We spoke to a neurologist i asked him whether authorities of west africa, and if the focus should lie on stopping the threat of infection . The first thing that is important is to contain the disease where it is in west africa. They have to extinguish the fire where it really is. To contain the disease outside of west africa, it is very important that we learn how the virus is transmitted. We do not know enough about ebola so far. I think the measures, which are standard at the cdc in the United States so far, are not safe enough to contain the virus. In germany we have much higher standard. We have bio security facilities for treatment of patients. This could be a model for other industrialized countries. Eu Health Ministers discussed emergency measures. One of them including screening procedures at airports. Is that strategy effective . The only effective way of dealing with this is screening at the exit airport. This means the airports in west africa. Because there are so many connections to african destinations and international destinations. Of course, you can change these destinations, so it is of no use to do in an entry screening because we do not have direct flights. The u. N. Also has criticized the International Community for not doing enough to help deal with the situation at the source of this outbreak, west africa. What help does that region need . They, the most important thing is really building up Treatment Centers where people can go and where they have confidence that they are treated well and have a higher chance to survive the disease there. Treatment centers, at the same time they are isolated, so we can make sure they do not infect other patients. The problem is, we have to send our own people in, and this is a very, very dangerous is nice dangerous business. We have to convince our own people to go and be medical helpers for west africa. That is the only way to extinguish this fire. Thank you very much for sharing your expertise with us. To some other news. European and asian leaders are gathering in milan for a twoday summit focusing on political and economic issues. The crisis in ukraine is expected to top the agenda. German chancellor Angela Merkel kicked off proceedings by Holding Private talks with ukrainian president petro poroshenko. She warned that russia must do more to safeguard ukraines fragile ceasefire. Merkel will meet with Vladimir Putin on friday. We shift our focus to syria, where u. S. Led airstrikes appear to be turning the tide against Islamic State militants in kobani. Coalition warplanes launched their heaviest compartment since the i. S. Began its assault on the town almost a month ago. U. S. Officials have launched 40 strikes in the last few days. Although the air campaign allowed kurdish fighters to retake some parts of the town, the pentagon warns that the battle over kobani is far from won. U. S. Jets fly over kobani. They launched 14 strikes on target, and it appars they have been able to slow the militant advance. Hundreds of i. S. Fighters have been killed. Militants retreated from many areas, but the situation remains in the balance. Kurdish fighters are optimistic they can win control of the town. But to hold onto it, they say they need weapons from the International Community. Tanks, cannons, mortars, armored vehicles, humvee we need this weaponry. We have simple weaponry like automatic guns, and they are not enough to destroy isis on the ground. By turkey is refusing to allow shipments of western arms to kobani. From hilltop, turkish tanks overlook the fighting. Ankara remains at odds with the International Community over how best to combat i. S. , so for now the only western help kobiani kobanis defenders can rely on his continuing airstrikes. Hundreds of thousands of people have fled the fighting in kobani. The conflict in syria, which has been going on for three and a half years, has seen millions of people displaced and forcibly the country. Some have come to germany, but Authorities Say the high number of refugees is putting a strain on resources. In the second of three part series, we meet a syrian family that sought refuge in berlin. He has not noticed how much his life changed. Six weeks ago, he and his parents fled syria. Protect to protect their family at home, they prefer not to show faces on camera. Now they are living in a refugee shelter in berlin. Conditions are not easy for omars young mother. Our problem is that we really need warm water for the baby, but to get it i have to walk to the end of the core door and across the garden. Thats hard. Other shelters across the german capital are overcrowded. So last month authorities converted an antischool into shelte mptychool in a shelter. Aid workers are trying to make the best of a bad situation, meaning a great deal of improvisation. I know how things are, and i just have to somehow deal with things. I cant cook, so the food comes from a box. We try to make it look nice, but there is just no other way right now. Life in the shelter is changing, though. The building is slowly being changed into a place where 150 refugees can feel more at home. All of this is taking place in berlin in a residential area. We have a duty to take in people in their times of need. At the very least, give them a roof over their heads. Im counting on city authorities to prevent any unrest from occurring. There have not been any problems. The refugees described a relaxed atmosphere. Omar and his parents have already made some friends, but they are still a long way from being officially recognized as refugees, and the uncertainty is stressful. I have a university education. I want to secure a future for my family in this country. Id like to get more education and live with my family, safely and securely. The parents hope that within a year they will be living in their own apartment and able to speak german. They know it is hard work, but they are confident that the situation will improve. Speaking of refugees, the United Nations says almost a hundred thousand people have three hundred thousand people have fled violence in libya. The north african nation is well on its way to becoming a failed state. Ban kimoon made a visit to the capital, urging warring factions to end the turmoil.

The burnedout remains of a nation. Destroyed government buildings, murdered politicians libya appears to be on the brink of anarchy. Islamists against secularists, tribal troops against mercenaries. Once united against muammar gaddafi, now they are enemies. The army and police have long since capitulated. There were many losers in the revolution, but no clear winners. Power had to be divided, but without the aid of neutral security forces. That is why the struggle for power has become such a violent conflict. This is the prime minister, a National Leader without a nation. He was elected only a few months ago. Then watched the country fall apart. 1700 militia groups are operating in libya, controlling around 200,000 fighters. The strongest are from zintan and the coastal city of misr ata. Benghazi, the cradle of the revolution, is now run by ansar alsharia, an offshoot of al qaeda. The new seat of parliament is not recognized by the islamists, who only garnered a minority in the election. They have thrown together their own alternative government in the National Congress in tripoli. Their biggest opponent is x general khalifa haftar, a former qadhafi man who joined forces with a militia group. His organizations are said to be militarily supported by saudi arabia, egypt, and the united arab emirates. There is no libyan army right now. There are only single groups and factions. Some groups actually call themselves the libyan armed forces, led by general haftar. But there are also armed clans and jihadists. And it is the jihadists racking up the military successes. In august, the islamists took control of tripolis airport. They then went on a rampage to the capital, seizing ministrie and the u. S. Ambassadors residence. They uploaded a video celebrating their victory. The situation in libya has grown to a military stalemate, a fight where no one side has the upper hand. Next we had to asia, where in hong kong protesters and police have clashed once again. Several people were injured, and a number of people were arrested. Demonstrators prevented police from blocking the road. Heavyhanded Police Tactics have put the government on the defensive. Hong kongs chief executive leung chinying said he was ready to start talks with prodemocracy activists, but warned that beijing would not change rules governing the 2017 elections.

His lawyer says the confessions were made under duress. The man, a 26yearold security guard, was arrested after closedcircuit footage turned up showing two of the murders. We will take a short break, but when we come back, rescue efforts are continuing in nepal, were Severe Weather in the himalayas has killed 29 people. And germany launches a textile alliance. See you in one minute. Rescue teams in nepal are guess billy searching for desperately searching for trekkers after an avalanche. Yak herders and Mountain Guides are among the victims, but most of those killed are foreign tourists. In a moment we will speak to worldrenowned mountaineer reinhold messner, but first this report the himalaya are a magnet for mountaineers. But again, they are the scene of disaster. Nepals military has managed to rescue more than 150 trekkers, but dozens more are still missing. Helicopter pilots say they have seen more corpses in the snow. One survivor described what happened when tuesdays blizzard hit. I could not see anything. The snow, i was stuck in the snow to here. Than a nepali guide found her and pulled her into a hut. They were on the popular annapurna, a classic himalayan trail that hikers do not consider very difficult. About 170 backpackers were on their way to parang la pass. It is the highest point on the route, but then it began to snow. Many of the bodies that have been recovered were buried by an avalanche triggered by the sudden blizzard. But it is unclear exactly how the hikers died. The himalaya have become increasingly popular with tourists in recent years, putting a strain on nepali gu ides. An avalanche. Earlier i spoke to reinhold messner, a mountaineer who is legendary for his various solo climbs, including mount everest. I began asking him how so many people could be caught on the mountains in such bad weather. The problem is that annapurna is quite long, so people started maybe 10 days before this terrible weather happened. They could not know what is happening. Normally on the annapurna, there i did it a few times you reach every evening a lodge where you would be safe. But the weather was maybe very bad, so also the sherpas normally know how to behave in these situations. They could no longer reach the next lodge, said the tragedy happened. In your view, how important is tourism for the himalayan region . Is it doing more harm than good . Generally, it is positive, because the local people are very poor. They need this tourism, especially trekking tourism. It is and intelligent way to know the himalayas. What is happening on everest, th ere they puit t a lot of equipmt and infrastructure on the mountain to bring normal hikers to the summit for a lot of money. But trekking tourism is safe and clean tourism, generally, fornen this kind of tourism. Reinhold messner, thank you for sharing your views. Business news now.

Germany has launched a new textiles alliance in berlin today. The goal is to help move the International Tax tiles of light chain textile supply chain to better labor and environmental practices. It includes 29 industry associations, but many key players in german fashion are refusing to join. Those working in asian textile factories can barely survive on their wages, but many risk their lives on a daily basis. Last year, more than 1000 workers were killed when a factory in bangladesh collapsed. Thses disasters are not uncommon. Now some German Companies have set out to improve labor standards in developing countries. Child labor, forced labor, deaths caused by chemicals must all stop. Thats not negotiable. The people of bangladesh are waiting burress to stop pointing for us to stop pointing the finger of blame at others, and roll up our sleeves and make changes. But progress is slow. Many large textile companies are refusing to take part. They say significant changes to safety procedures would be too complex and costly. German trade unions disagree. They are used to coordinating multinational organizations, so introducing the labor standards we are calling for should not be too difficult. Standards they are starting to take seriously. The textile Alliance Hopes of eventually there will be improved internationally recognized labor standards, but in reality it could take years for these workers to see any real change in their daily conditions. As you might have heard from us, perhaps, this year germany commemorates 25 years since the fall of the berlin wall. November 9, 1989, triggered what turned out to be a key event in the collapse of soviet communism. Berlin is comparing for a big party, complete with an art installation of huge proportions. This is more than just blowing up a few balloons. 8,000 are needed. The art project aims to cut the city in two again. It will cover a 15 kilometer stretch past parliament, checkpoint charlie, the east side gallery, to give everyone, especially those who never experienced the wall, a feeling of how big the division was, and what it is like for a city to be aplit split down the middle. Every balloon will be individually lit up. Those who came up with the idea christopher and his brother, mark. The wall was a huge construction. Made out of hard, heavy material. We want to represent those proportions for everyone, but with the juxtaposition, something made out of light material like just air and light. Something nonchalant that floats, that can heal the wound that once was. The healing process will only last two days. November 9 november 7 to november 9. Then it is a case of the artist letting go of the masterpiece on cue. , when beethovens ninth symphony begins, the balloons will be symbolically set free. Before we let you go, if high places make you uncomfortable you might want to look away now, because it is the wingsuit flying championships, held in china. That is where presumably sane people jump off a 1400 meter High Mountain wearing something that makes them look at a flying squirrel. Not really flying, of course. They are falling. At the end they pop their parachute and land, we hope. And we will pop our parachute now. That is all for us. Thanks for watching.
