There are also National Disaster relief response experts and authorities that are on board the flights headed to nepal at the moment. We are seeing a death toll of over 30 people. Worst hit is the state of bhara. They are assessing damage and there are hundreds injured from what local reports suggest. There are expectations that the death toll in india, itself could climb. However, the biggest priority at this stage as the Indian Government has also mentioned is helping nepal in as many ways as possible. Certainly by way of the expertise and equipment that india may be able to send in whether its to help the injured or whether its to help in the Recovery Efforts there. So, it will be interesting to see going forward. The alert is still very high in india along the him layan range as can be understood at this point in time. We have heard of reports of several aftershocks and tremors causing landslides in the him layan state of sikham which borders nepal. An interesting situation spanning from india.

The Italian Coast Guard said it rescued 228 people in two separate operations as europe continues to struggle with the my grant crisis. We will be in the italian island of sicily where may my grant are being held after being rescued by the Italian Coast Guard. We will join the coast guard who are on patrol on the shores of libya from where most of the migrants began this perilous journey but we will start our journey at the source of this crisis in the ethiopian capital where every year hundreds of people were smuggling people reached europe. Catherine soi reports. Reporter everyone here knew least 5 young men killed long side other migrants by isil in libya last week. They were headed to europe by a welltraveled smuggling route. The plan was to cross the sea to italy. In the neighborhood where three of them grew up many joined their families in mourning. They were inconsoleable, their pain hard to describe. Elias baruk and makela were looking for a better life. Those we talked to say life is difficult. Staying in ethiopia is not an option. These are some of the childhood friends who saw them off two months ago. They hoped to follow soon. Even as they grieve they have not abandoned that plan. I know they are dangerous but its better being stuck here my life will be better when i go. Mikel attempted the march. He never got to his destination. They were turned back at the border. He said smugglers failed to agree on a payment for the boarder police. The smugglers are brutal. They dont care about anyone. They only care about money. They treated us badly. They beat us. Ethiopia has one of the Fastest Growing economies in the world. Still, its a poor country. Many people are unemployed. Some analysts believe its a mentality rather than poverty that drives people to leave. This mindset, this collective social psychology of going to dream land countries of destination with plenty of opportunities has been a defendant driving factor. Back in the neighborhood the vigil goes on even as some of the young people here dream of plans to leave the country no matter what. Kathryn soi, al jazeera. As we said earlier many migrants leave from libya. The coast guard is finding it increasingly difficult to patrol shores. Ol board with one of libyas new coast guard patrols. Reporter its not an easy mission. They say the smugglers continue to adapt their tactics according to the changes on the ground. They said that they have noticed among the my grants that they have rescued over the past few weeks about 250, that there was no skipper on board. Migrants say that one them was taught quickly how to steer the boat or the little raft in exchange of free passage. In other instances, they go with them to a certain point and under some pretext, like for example, the engine has broken down they are picked up by another boat and abandoned the migrants in the middle of the sea the they also say that going after the migrants is not going to work simply because this is the last leg of a very long journey. Most of the migrants have been to several countries before reaching the coast of libya. You have Smuggling Networks that operate in all of these countries countries. Some of the heads of these networks are not in libya. According to the coast guard, their point of view is if you want to go after the smugglers, you are going to have to carry out operations in several countries. Certainly a difficult task for the eu. Meanwhile, the it al yall coast guard continues the rescue operation. The boat that capsized on sunday has been ordered to remain in jail. Barnaby phillips reports from sicily. Is this the face of a trader in human misery . What a court in catania must decide. Mohammed alimala said he was only a passenger on the overcrowded boat that capsized with the loss of hundreds of lives. Other survivors say he was the boats captain. Even if guilty he will surely only be a small cog in the huge business of taking desperate people across the mediterranean. We traveled to syrakuse. There are migrants in the public squares, in the bus station, board, frustrated planning their next move. We were not allowed into this Reception Center but we spoke to julia who works for a charity inside, from syracuse and never imagined she would be an aide worker in her hometown. People dying in the sea. We cannot stand it. Its crazy. People should have the right to ask for asylum. Its not possible to die just because they need to escape from war or poverty. Sara and serud from areatrea a micro biologist who dreams of getting a ph. D. In europe. She arrived this week after eight days at sea. They paid about 3,000 u. S. Dollars each to the smugglers. They are not bad. They just tried to make a business. Its very big business to take from one person 3,000. You dont feel angry toward them . They are doing business . No. They are not forcing you to go. It is your wish. They did not mistreat you on the boat . No. No. Nothing like that. At the station, a group of sudanese are trying to cobble together the money to take the train north. This is the escape route for many my grant. The majority we have spoken to say they have no intention of staying here they think of sweeden, german and the United Kingdom as countries they would line to get to. In other words, sicily and italy is just one stage in their long and dangerous journey. Reporter but all of the time, more are arrive okay sicilys shores back at catania harbor eighty africans were brought into port. They celebrate their survival but they know they face many struggles to come in europe a continent that does not want them. Barnaby phillips al jazeera, sicily.

If the houthis declare to commit by the resolution handed down by the Security Council paving the way for a diplomatic solution and a new round of talk the houthis declaire to commit to all of the conditions laid down by the security counsel, we are prepared to sit with them at the negotiating table. Sala is a party. He is not an add ver satisfactory. He was supposed. He should lay down arms. He is a big ally to the houthis.

Now, many of the 4,000 residents who were forced to evacuate were briefly allowed to return to the socalled red zone to check on their homes and clear roads and roofs as best they could. I came to remove the ash from the roof so it wont collapse. We are nervous and dont know when we will be able to return home. A state of emergency remains in effect in towns and cities near here . The volcano is unstable. It could erupt again. Actually, it is still in eruption but i mean it could be larger lava flows, mudslides and explosions that could put peoples lives at risk. As it continues to bellch huge clouds of volcanic ash in the direction of neighboring argentina where air traffic has been severely disrupted, here volunteers distributed food and water to those trying to salvage their belongings or simply find pets. These cows are sitting in what 48 hours ago were lush green pastures. Now, they and other livestock are being evacuated. There are at least 600 animals we feed to take elsewhere because there is too much ash and they will starve if they remain here. Most of this volcanic ash looks and feels like a collection of little stones as you can see. Absolutely everything here is covered in it. The worst part isnt trying to clear this all away which could take a year. Its the uncertainty about whether the calbucca volcano will go back to sleep or erupt again at any time.

Polls have opened in the west african country of togo where the president is a clear favorite to win another term. His family has ruled the country for 48 years since his father seized power in a military coup in 1967. He ruled unchallenged for more than 20 years. He faced a multiparty election for the first time in 1993 and won. He was then reelected in 1998 and in 2003, a year after term limits were removed from the constitution to allow him to run. Following the death in 309, his 39yearold son followed him. A report now from the capital. This is the polling station where the main opposition was a little earlier. The whole place went wild as they saw the opposition leaders inspect the different polling stations after he cast his vote. Togos election is significant because the incumbent is going for a third term in. Now, this debate about whether the president should have a third term is something thats being talked about across the continent and in this west african region there are only two countries where there are no president ial term limits. Thats here in gambia. So that is why there is a lot of attention and focus on this election and just in the neighboring area late last year the then president was forced out of office when he tried to change the constitution so he could run for a third time. Popular protest pushed him out. Now, we have a situation in togo where the world is watching but, also from a local perspective, this is the first time the local observers will have the opportunity to compare their results with the official results. So, if there are any discrepancies, this is something that is going to be highlighted quite quickly is it will be up to the head of the Electoral Commission to deal with this. The ruling party says the president can run for a third election term in june. However, the countrys opposition says the decision violates the terms of the constitution. The 2005 agreement which ended the countrys civil war says the president can only serve two terms. The president says no one will stand in the way of the ruling partys decision.

The divers he knew ploring the icy waters have military support and they are part of a project to map the sea floor in waters often disputed disputed with the united states. Even candidates Prime Minister Stephen Harper announced the find as a history buff. The only indid i know with us cabinet minister has chaired it for the past two years. She said setting up a northern business council, promoting indigenous knowledge and looking for ways to reduce some carbon emissions. Observers say canadas record is mixed at best. It came in with a modest agenda. It didnt seek to do very much. It hasnt done very much. But it continues to support and maintain a spaces for western countries to Work Together on arctic issues and in that respect, the canadian chairmanship has been a defendant success the governments lowkey approach to the Arctic Council contrasts with repeated promises to bring more jobs to the north, to bolster canadas sovereignty in a region krurnl to the areas future. Some see gaps between rhetoric and re and realty. Canada has made some commitments that have come through and others that havent. I think the rank and file people are waiting for some real bread and butter issues to be acted more than the Arctic Council. Temperatures are rising faster than anywhere else on the planet. Entire ways of life are threatened. Doing something about that is becoming evermore urgent.
