Europe decides to rescue the migrants
After the deaths of many hundreds of migrants in the Mediterranean, European leaders decide to step up naval patrols. They might destroy the people-smugglers' boats too.
European leaders responded to the deaths of hundreds of migrants trying to cross the Mediterranean by stepping up rescue efforts -- and thinking about destroying the people-smugglers' boats too.

Also in this podcast: Saudi Arabia continues pounding rebels in Yemen -- despite saying it would stop; South Africa steps in to protect resident foreigners who've been under attack; and the rock star who's hoping not to be on the the highway to hell.
