airlines being involved. did that have teeth? that could have teeth. essentially, it s a really fundamental question actually for the european union because the poles are saying we re not letting anyone across our border. we re not only going to build the barbed wire, we re going to build a wall as well. when the rest of the eu has wall, they re not happy about that at all. what they did, the german foreign minister, that s where they end up realistically. we need to sanction the airlines that fly people into belarus, knowingly fly them to belarus. if you have a route, for instance, of a middle eastern airline that flies, say, from beruit to gradano in belarus, that s not exactly a touristic center. they re saying, look, they know these people are going to try and get across the border. they know these are not students that are going to stay in belarus. eu is saying airlines are benefiting from this, and those airlines need to feel some teeth as you say, from the european union. po
minister, he said a lot of airlines, some airlines are making money by knowingly contributing to what the eu calls state-sponsored human trafficking and they want to start sanctioning some of these ar airlines. the belarusian flagship carrier is already heavily sanctioned, but also airlines based in the middle east that fly out of places like beruit, air beal and bringing more and more folks to that border area because the eu is saying the situation there is getting more dire by the day for the folks who are trapped at the border and trying to get across, isa. follow the monday and i try to stem that. thanks very much, fred pleitgen for us there. thank you, fred. you are watching cnn newsroom. just ahead, what china is saying about a report about a hypersonic missile. we ll have that story for you after a short break. neuriva plus fuels six key indicators of brain performance. more brain performance? yes, please! neuriva. think bigger.

here, but as i said, the collapse continues and yesterday it accelerated. isa? important context there from our ben wideman in beruit. thanks very much, ben. good to see you. now, hundreds more are fleeing their homes as lava spews from the volcano la palma in the canary islands. we ve been showing you images every day. it s been erupting nearly a month. 6000 people have been displaced. the lava has destroyed more than 100 structures. the strongest magnitude 4.5. in california, warm temperatures and strong winds are increasing the danger in sacramento county where this fire has flared up. officials say it was human caused, but exactly how is still unclear. so far it has burned at least 50 acres, destroying some camp sites used by homeless people.
