leaving hundreds of thousands without power. and one year after powerful earthquakes devastated large parts of south eastern turkey, our correspondent returns to one of the worst hit urban areas this neighborhood used to be home to thousands of people, but just look around. it's almost entirely gone. the hello, i'm terry martin. thanks for joining us. you've got a secretary of state anthony blinking is in the middle east pushing for a pause in the fighting and gone. so he's heading to egypt, having already held talks in saudi arabia. lincoln said he's hoping to secure an enduring and to the conflict between israel and tomas, which carried out the deadliest terrorist attacks in israel's history and october. the diplomatic push comes as israel is considering an assault on rough. uh, that's
8:02 am

8:03 am
kicked off a diplomatic offensive in the middle east. meeting with id officials before heading to egypt. international pressure on israel is mounting. frances foreign minister called for an immediate cease fire and a political solution for gaza doing we must prepare the future and support the palestinian authority, which must take on a new form and re deploy in the gaza strip. as soon as possible, i repeat garza is palestinian land there by least union. but it's unclear if those plans will be realized. israel's prime minister is set on continuing to war until her mouth is destroyed. go visit them, take them to me. this is the essence of policy, 13 victory of how much total victory is essential because it guarantees israel security. total victory is the only way in which we can secure the further historic disagreements that awaits us. of israel's defense minister says the military would
8:04 am
push on until it has to reign over gossip, including rough journalists, come e mail. glory is following the story for us and cairo. i asked him about the current state of negotiations toward the ceasefire. while on the table is a framework that was discussed in paris between the united states, this red egypt and caught up in this framework. there is the talk of several faces . a pause of the wall is 7 phases of a pulse of the wall and exchange of the said and hostages. how much is saying that it's reviewing this proposal and but this week there's some very important sticking points is where it says it's ready for a pause. in over the wall and then there's different phases of exchanging prisoners . how much is ex she's saying that to it will be only anything will happen only if
8:05 am
there was really em. how much is that? make g off of that, but it's, it's actually a gaza want guarantees from is rated that, that there will be a final end of the wall. and that, that, that was his rating forces with withdrawal from gaza. that is, of course, difficult, was this sense of, is there any payments that you always adjust to? it is good for nothing less than this drawing mazda. and for the big 3, which egypt roll in all the is karim, what are its interests in trying to broker a deal on gaza? what contact is basically the hop pay for the negotiations was the political leadership of commerce. it usually is the tend to, to the minutes inspections of how much that there's not much you have in got into the gaza strip. and there is of course context between them. and is there any other
8:06 am
addiction intelligence issues? this functions as some kinds of postman between the 2 sites and the between the hamas really and the in gaza in lincoln and his right now when the link was here in cairo. so messenger role as it were, is rarely forces have, have shifted their focus to the south of the gaza strip. now they've been pushing in that direction from the beginning. much of the findings now concentrated on the area around rough. uh, that's right on egypt border. how is the war being felt in egypt? what people here are really horrified, i must say, and by what the, by the pictures this see coming out every day of gaza and the policy. any question is really daily conversation. key role. now, people do not understand why there is no more international pressure to these where to end as well. and why the government has of course,
8:07 am
some leverage through its contact. this is right in the public opinion is very much it on the policy insight cream. you've been covering this conflict from the beginning, travelling extensively in the palestinian territories. how hopeful are palestinians that is sustained ceasefire can be reached. that's what what i hear. that is simply disappear, right? delta in the this it see that it's of course fear of further displacement because especially when the is really ami might go into an alpha and then beat enough people. it squeezed really, there is a rough i area and then most southern point and of the, the gaza strip. basically wish that back to the is really part of that is this fear that people might be displaced to outside the gaza strip. uh and the i think that's
8:08 am
the biggest fear that's the, that's really extremely desperate situation right now. in gust kareem, thank you very much. as always, that was journalist coming l g o r in cooper high. right? it's catch you up on a few other stories making headlines around the world. today. the u. s. has carried out a new strike against who the targets in yemen. it says it's forces had to drones operated by the round back group. the us as launch several strikes on you had been in response to who the attacks on shipping in the red sea. chile has started 2 days of national mourning for the victims of wild fires burning through the central ball power use a region more than a 120 people have been killed and many more are missing. emergency crews say they are still finding bodies in the wreckage. all makers and hungry, boycotted a parliamentary boats on suite and joining nato prime minister victor, or button it is it as party have been blocking stock on his bid to join the line
8:09 am
since 2022 hungry is now the only native member not to have approved sweden succession, you know, have a problem with all that southern goals. parliament has voted to postpone the presidential election for the 1st time and its history. the pole was due to be held this month, but has now been pushed back until december set a goal has long been considered a model of democracy in west africa. but this decision is raised concerns over the erosion of democracy, sparking protests on the streets. and in parliament send, the goal has ended on job to data cri, dozens of opposition, m p. 's, me the last page, but then the block ability lean elections. but they were thrown out of the national assembly. and the remaining long because wanted to postpone the election to december, this expands the current, president's daniel by about 10 months. so i'm thinking what brings us
8:10 am
together here is quite simply unconstitutional. which is why i say that today we're witnessing and attempted constitutional cool. it's it's clear that the government's aim is to push for a postponement of the elections because they know their candidate will lose. all present mackie saw announced the election dealer over the weekend. he said it was because of a dispute between the parliament and the constitutional court over the rejection of canada. on to an image, the scene offers announcement products is opposite across the capital card. the government's and hundreds of security forces into the streets in a shaw force force. and if i do this, and if i think doesn't measure if we are afraid, it's a question of whether we're willing to let the regime that's in place of advance its political agenda, whether we say no. and the answer from a simple is to say,
8:11 am
no, you're going to go on and on and on and on. we don't know. so don't ever since we want to confront unless you in the election, that's all we want. we don't want anything else, not the the product as soon as collated into violent flashes with police. sending all has long been considered a modern democracy in west africa. but this latest crisis threatens to undermine that damage. to the us know where to ritual. rain is triggered mudslides and flooding across southern california. much of the state is under extreme weather advisors. at least 3 people have been killed in hundreds of thousands of people are without power. the storm was the 2nd to hit the states in recent days. and we go, which gets more on this now from jason camp a donia. here's the nbc news radio bureau chief in los angeles. thanks for being with us. jason, how bad is the situation where you are?
8:12 am
i can tell you that it's no great right now. you know, hundreds and thousands of people are without power and they're just waiting for the other shoe to drop. so while the rain has really so southern california, now we have to worry about that rain getting through the soil and then making its way to bed. rock, when that happens, that's when we have land slides in mudslides. now right now, across l a. county, they recorded over $300.00 a month slides and debris slides in the area. but that can be very minor to some more extreme. uh, several houses have already been toppled over. you mentioned there's been some debts. but right now as the storm continues to leave southern california specifically, it's a matter of wait and see. is the hillside going to come down? is the mountain going to collapse?
8:13 am
things like that, and that's probably the scariest part about all of this. we've got the strike team in place. we've got the federal government, william down, president biting called the mayor of los angeles. so we have, we have what we need in place. it's just a matter of where is it going to happen? what exactly it is being delivered in terms of health for the people who are being affected by the 6th stream. whether, you know, at this point, all they can do is just say, okay, do you have enough sand bags to keep the mud and debris out of your house? that really is all you can do, you know, rein being a very forceful part of mother nature. she doesn't bear down and she doesn't back down from anything. so there's really not much they can do. we both end up some evacuation centers in, in the higher elevation. so people can get out from the flooding and out from the debrief loans. but that's really all we can do until the state starts to dry out
8:14 am
a little bit. and again, the fear is what's the scariest part about all of us? well, talking about fear many or, or who worried that this things could get worse. house, the forecasts looking, is there any relief insight as i'm sitting here and it's raining right now and it was supposed to be out of here earlier this afternoon, and it's now expected to continue throughout most of the day tomorrow in into wednesday. early morning, wednesday it should be gone, and then we'll start to try out wednesday afternoon into thursday. so the good news is that the storm is actually moving. the problem is that it just kind of sat on top of southern california for the past 2448 hours or so. and just don't fuck it upon, buckets of rain, millions and millions and trillions of gallons of rain across a region. and so hopefully the forecast is,
8:15 am
are correct and hopefully the newer models that come out that have come out saying that the storm will at least give us a break within the next 48 to 72 hours. hopefully those are correct because the state could use a break. let's hope that break comes sooner rather than later. jason. great talking with you jason calvin down here, the nbc news radio bureau chief in los angeles. thanks so much. i now, one year on from turkey is deadly as earthquake and modern times, protesters have clashed with police in the city of hot tide. thousands of people originally gathered for a vigil for the one year anniversary of the quake which killed more than $50000.00 people in turkey alone, and just placed millions. demonstrators say the government has neglected the region since the $7.00 magnitude quake struck south eastern turkey and parts of syria are corresponded. you're the 100 filed this report from the hard hit city of on
8:16 am
talked you as this is what remains. of the once bustling city of untucked, abandoned department buildings lined the roads, reminders of a knife that no longer exist see if the year has passed since the quakes and in many places says still busy, demolishing damage buildings and clearing the russell. this neighborhood used to be home to thousands of people, but just look around. it's almost entirely gone a year ago to powerful earthquakes that to se kentucky be destroyed or severely damaged. some 300000 buildings across 11 provinces. experts say construction safety codes had been ignored on a grand scale. some lives could be rescued with many couldn't. today the
8:17 am
official desk told stands at more than 50000, these grades in and talk you, a monument to pain of durham dust. you lost his brother and his mother. he himself was trapped under the rubble for more than a day. he tells me what you saw. so just when i managed to get out after more than 30 hours, it looked like the apocalypse. it happened and you said, no one knew what to do. i shouldn't, you know, everyone had lost someone and the state wasn't there for us. there was no help me with a single mother a year later, hundreds of thousands in the disaster he'd region are still holding out in containers and other temporary shelter. like melick dustin and who invites me into her improvised kitchen. she's been living here for almost a year with her husband and 2 children, but others motion, but i can't get used to this. i had it because i had everything. and now i don't
8:18 am
know what will happen, what will become with my kids with lorraine in the clothes. i sometimes tell myself, god, i wish we had died too, as a family's gift associated county, i should be honest as a quakes. president bridget tell you of ad one made hold promises to swiftly refills across the region. how much it was. a goal in the 1st phase is to complete the $319000.00 homes and village houses within a year and hand them over to the wrong notes by the test. but the reconstruction is progressing fluid and promised at this building sites on the outskirts of kentucky and most of the ottoman and his team o racing to get the 1st few 1000 departments ready. in february, he attempts to explain the delays. sure, india to the biggest problem right now is the rain. so it's been reading hubble in the region. so they do a lot of what we're working non stop. i want just to make sure earthquake victims can move in as soon as possible. the billboards like this one have sprung up across
8:19 am
the city. you homes, you jobs a future, that's the talkers governments big promise. but as much as people here, one to believe, and it's many have little hope that life in this city will soon return to how it was before many shop owners are improvising the sell from containers, know that most of their former customers arrive at did, will displace getting supplements, i'm just looking for them to be. we decided to do something on our own and to make ends meet. i have life has to go on. we hosted on talk, it will certainly getting back on and i also most of you said the j. c. everything will get better, but i'm not sure. i think it'll take 10 or 15 years to rebuild the city on on this, you lose all of the engineer. darcia is your candidacy. i'm a mother of 4 children. i'm fighting for them. we have to hold on somehow much, at least we are still alive, and that means there is whole units of our that makes and that whole is
8:20 am
a crucial building block for the future. to meet the ruins of on tatiana for more on earthquakes in the region, we can talk now to marco bone whole. he's with the germans research center for geosciences, the g f. c. in puts them. thanks for being with us. professor. what lessons have been learned from the devastating earthquake instruct turkey and syria a year ago? yeah, good morning. i'm there a number of lessons that weren't on the 1st of all. the most important to us tricks don't kill people, buildings, to so the buildings quote that were already modernized, were not applied in all cases which caused most of the fatalities. but from the research point of view, we did learn the lesson and that we analyze data. i'm using more on technology like i machine learning and a i. and that tells us that there has been a what we called a preparatory process that last as
8:21 am
a couple of months starting 8 months before the last page. that was not enough to tell the people deterministically that won't be one big us creek on back all that day. but it wasn't enough to state that the probabilities increase and that could give the information at hand to federal over nice a troops to, to save lives afterwards. but the best craig determination remains an open issue in research as of today. so where would you say that we stand now in terms of our ability to predict earthquakes is science getting any better at it? what we're getting better about, it's a slow process because the process is we're studying the code gaping or feet. that means we have no direct accessing contrast, for example, to run up forecast or so. but we going step by step, for example, of bringing us to the lap where we perform controlled experiments on rock specimens
8:22 am
. and from these experiments, we can actually learn that in principle, it's possible to cease phenomena like for false all preparatory processes, systematically now bring that up to evasions to the scale of warning. cities like you stumble of us is a long way. we started that by implementing better instrumentation technology. for example, joe, so he stumbled with monitoring 247. and looking for these signals that we do see in the lab, we are not what we all domestic, but it's still a long way to go. as i said, as of now and nobody can really predict the fix. given that, you know, we accept the it, nobody can really predict, as you say, but how great would you say, given your very careful analysis of the data from around the region? how great would you say the risk of further earthquakes is in the region?
8:23 am
what talking about he stumbling, that's not the question is better on the when? so uh, in a ton of 52 as quick predictions as also to him coming to us great forecasting. that means we can collect all the available information to estimate the probability . so giving a certain percentage of an incoming bus creek for a certain time period, and that is as of today, the best we can. and that for example, includes also water level changes because water level changes can induce seismic city. it also includes phenomenon with that because slow slip that are slow earthquakes occurring in the underground, and it is known that these slow slip events can also cause bigger rest craig's. so what we're trying to do is to develop some things that we call in the fall operational forecasting system that would collect all this information and that kind of result in increasing or decreasing possibilities for certain return for certain times, which we would give the local authorities at hand, of course ition warning is a different ball game because if your issue and that's good morning,
8:24 am
you have also financial losses. you have to run down the economy and so on. so that is a tribute to attribute tests, of course. so that remains to be a decision that can only be made by local authorities. so just a one quick question then regarding so it is double should people around this time will be bracing for an earthquake within the next 10 years. say one of the best we can stay to day is that the probability for a bigger off craigslist or eastern believe in the next 30 years is about 70 percent . oh, that sounds mathematical, but it's the best we can say and it's a high number. it is marco, thank you very much for your assessment. that was professor mark of bon holt from the german research center for geosciences in font style. thank you. so britain is king charles has been diagnosed with cancer less than 18 months since he you send it to the throne. fucking and policy issued
8:25 am
a statement saying the disease was discovered during a hospital procedure last week. it says the 75 year old has started treatment and is positive about his prognosis. dental incident of king charles cancer diagnosis has surprised many. as only last week he was in smiling and waving a crowns while leaving the hospital in london. following the procedure on an enlarged, prostate got, you can tell us, says the cancer most discovered during the king's treatment, but it has not revealed the form of the disease. it says the decision to go public was made to prevent speculation and to raise cancer. awareness. london, the centuries are united innovation, the king, a speedy recovery. i think he does a pretty wonderful job to be honest, i'm a big fan and scott, so side suddenly got a family would want to go through and probably, but anyway, but having been
8:26 am
a person in the poverty cox and so i'm sure he is aware of how much that will connect him to other people or the families who go through that. but i'm very sad to hear this very sorry to hear. and i pray that he will recover. you know, the treatment is really sad. news for, for the war would pay for him. i would side to him to say to my mom, my brother, the strong buckingham palace says the king is stepping back from his public to use while he undergoes treatment. but he will continue in his constitutional role as head of state dealing with the state businesses and official paper work coming. if you're watching dw news, just reminder of our top story, us secretary of state anthony blinking is traveling to egypt as he makes
