On board a rickety boat with migrants crossing the Aegean Sea
- 9 years ago
This week, we focus on the Syrian and Iraqi refugees risking their lives to reach Europe. A reporter from France 2 television managed to convince smugglers to let him on board a rickety boat with one group of migrants. He captured rare footage of their perilous crossing of the Aegean Sea from Turkey to Greece.
We also head to Saudi Arabia, where preparations continue for the Hajj pilgrimage despite last week's accident that killed more than 100 people when a crane collapsed.
Finally, we'll make a stop in Israel, a country that has come to be known as the start-up nation.
