we're 260 kilometers away from the epicenter, which was northeast of the country deep under the hindu kush mountain rage. across a third of the country. there was a stampede at a school in northern afghanistan where girls panicked when the earthquake happened. it took about a minute. the girls panicked and were trampled to death in that tragic incident. it is the biggest earthquake felt in decades. people in the capital went out on the streets trying to get away from buildings, worried that they might be hurt, and we do know that the casualty level is quite high here. casualties around the country and even worse in neighboring pakistan. one of the big concerns is some of the villagers that might have

been affected, difficult to get t to, and in these situations even harder. >> there is offers of help to afghanistan to this region devastated from this very large earthquake. >> we have a report from afghanistan, and from neighboring countries. let's go to pakistan, al jazeera's caroline malone reports from there. >> buildings were hit with the force of the strong quake even

though the epicenter was hundreds of kilometers away. the structural damage including the city's historic fault. people awaited anxiously as the road shook over head. many injured were brought to this behind di hospital. and people ran from buildings fearing aftershocks. >> it was a severe earthquake. we told the students to russia out. we russi rushed down amid the screaming. there were extreme shocks after five minutes and the building suffered severe damage. there were cracks in the walls. people felt the effects of kashmir where 500-year-old structures were badly damaged.

there are no reports of loss of life or widespread damage. the kind of fear that spreads across the region even as far away as new delhi where we are in panic and concern here in india. >> well, previews peter sammaons from the university college in london. thank you for joining us here. we know it's 7.5 magnitude the depth of 213 kilometers. what does that mean? put that in context for us. >> put in terms the shaking that you feel. the shaking is less.

>> unfortunately, i'm guessing the death toll ris will rise when the mourn light comes, but judging from the earthquake do you think we'll see hundreds or thousands dead. >> it's probably going to be hundreds. that's unfortunate. the shaking was not so bad. there will wil trigger landslides an it will take time to establish links with those communities how much research has been done in this area. the question is after earthquakes have happened could this have been predicted? how much do we know about this particular area compared to

japan? >> well, the teutonics are very complicated, they're not understood and there is not enough research to compare to japan or the united states. >> there are other issues as we talk on al jazeera, is there lack of coordination between the countries? what is stopping the research from happening? >> i think all countries are quite different in that region, and some have been quite open to research. others, there are security issues and other countries there are access issues. there is a whole culmination, and every country is different. what really needs to happen is the far more coordinated research effort. >> and assuming there was a more coordinated research effort, what kinds of things would you be looking at, and what would you look at to predict these

earthquakes? >> first, you want to find out where the big faults are and the likelihood that they might move. that's what it really is about. and then informing people of the potential hazard in their backyard. >> how susceptible is this area to earthquakes? how damaging have they been? >> it's highly seismically active, and in the past, they have suffered casualty numbers. >> is it safe now? do you italy there is a likelihood of aftershocks or another big quake or is it impossible to know? >> there is a similar earthquake in the area in 2002. so we know within the next decades or so you would expect forexpect another earthquake of

this type. >> we're just mentioning not enough research has been done. are the groups perhaps in the u.k. trying to research the area to at least predict when this will happen again? >> there is a big u.k. program in central asia. it is a very large area with many active faults. >> professor of geophysics, thank you for sharing your expertise with us. >> thank you. >> still to come, the latest in southeastern europe where thousands continue to journey north in the hope of a better life. also israel and the occupied territories seem more violent, the president turns to europe for help. and there is a new man in the race to be fifa president. we'll tell you all about him coming up in sport.

>> a world health organization said that processed meat such as ham and sausage can lead to colon and other cancer and red meat is probably carcinogenic as well. in thailand they're seeing a rise in the number of people eating processed meat. >> the international agency for research on cancer, part of the "world healt "world health organization" has listed processed meat as a cancer-causing substance. they say in 50 grams of processed meat eat an day will increase the chance of colon cancer by 18%. >> in the morning we have to

hurry to go to some place or buy something easy for children to eat. so this might be the cause of sausage or processed meat every day. >> processed meat is preserved by adding chemical, salt or smokin smoking it. it is listed here among other things that are carcinogenic. it rates along side the likes of asbestos because of the process that the meat is put through. and red meat including wave, lamb, and pork, is in the next list of things that probably cause cancer like hebrew side, lady compounds, malaria, fumes from fried food and working night shifts. the meat industry in the u.s. spoke out to discredit the findings. >> it's their job to find cancer hazards. but red and processed meat can be part of a healthy balanced

diet. >> this is not the first time that certain types of meat have been linked to cancer. the consumption of meat is increasing around the world. according to the united nations that went up by 25% under 10 years from 2003. this report focuses on the ingredients and compounds found in meat. what it doesn't focus on are any other lifestyle choices that people who eat a lot of meat might also be making. the who classification helps governments around the world find ways to make their populations healthier. controversial as it is, this report will give them plenty of consider. al jazeera, bangkok. >> well, one nutritionist has told al jazeera that the who advice will prompt a rethink of the way people shop. >> the biggest risk associated with processed meat, bacon,

salami, and 50 grams a day increases the risk significantly. that's about two rations of good bacon. it's really a high quantity of meat. when we talk about eating read met. it's 100 grams of red meat. so 100 grams is half of that. that's being eaten every day without increased risk. the headed lines today is suggesting that eating red meat is as dangerous as smoking. that's just ridiculous. if you eat lean red meat, you keep your portions quite moderate, you don't eat it every day, then the risks are really very small. i think people would think about processed meats, the sausages, ham, salami, trying less of those, i hope.

there are lots of other things we can do to lessen the risk of cancer. not smoking, not drinking, all of those things. >> two turkish policemen have been killed during a shootout with suspected isil fighters. they were carrying out raids o oon the outskirts of the city when the gunfire broke out. we have reports from istanbul. >> as turkish security forces raided several properties, sustained gunfire echoed around the neighborhood. two police officers were killed by booby trapped doors. the shoot out that followed, according to the police.

>> two important isil groups have been neutralized. >> these raids were amongst a series that have taken place across turkey in the wake of the october 10 suicide-bombing in ankara that killed 102 people. the government said that isil was responsible. this is the first time on turkish soil that there has been a shootout involving isil. it highlights the increasing threat that the group poses to this country, adding to the security headache national elections here on sunday. then in mid-november world leaders head to the southern coast for the g-20 leader summ summit. >> an israeli airstrike has targeted a hamas security post in gaza. the communications tower was east of the camp in central gaza. there are no reports of injuries. and there has been more violence in israel and the occupied territories in the most recent incident a 19-year-old from the west bank was shot dead

by israeli forces. earlier a palestinian man was shot and critically injured in hebron. the israeli army said that he tried to stab a soldier. elsewhere a palestinian man was shot dead by israeli forces. israel said that the man seriously injured a 19-year-old soldier. 58 palestinians and 8 israelis have been killed in this month's unrest. well, trying to ends the violence is the reason the palestinian president back mood abbas is in brussels for a meeting with the european union foreign policy chief. they're discussing the ongoing tensions between palestinians and israelis, sparked by issues surrounding the al-aqsa mosque in east jerusalem. they issued a short statement prior to their closed-door meeting. >> i would like to emphasize the relationship between the e.u. and palestine and also highlight

how important are the support assistance, economic, and financial and political support provided to the state of palestine. the situation in the territories of palestine is extremely serious and grave. >> what they're looking for on the ground that can improve the lives of the palestinian people that can strengthen the palestinian authority not only on the economic field but also on security and the political field. and to have what we would call some deliverables of the process itself. not a process for the sake of the process. >> we've been at the meeting in brussels. we have this update. >> over the weekend the secretary of state john kerry met with mahmood abbas.

after that meeting he called on leaders to lead. he said that the measures must be taken to try and tamp down the cycle of violence that has been escalating over the last few weeks. but the statement we've heard tonight here in brussels from president mahmood awas there was no indication that he was going to make a call for the end to the violence. he was blaming it very much on the israelis. the key issue that he raised was not only the fact that there was no political horizon, no hope for the youth palestinians, but there was no status quo on the temple mount, the al-aqsa mount. this is the third most holy shrine of islam and the most holy shrine in the jewish

religion as well. he was referring to increased activity by jewish religious leaders, and their wish to get in to the compound to have prayers of what is the holiest site. he was blaming that on the cycle of violence that we're seeing. he didn't make any call for tamping down that violence. i think that's exactly what we didn't expect because john kerry, the u.s. secretary of state was asking leaders on both sides to try and get this violence to end. we didn't hear back from president mahmood abbas tonight. >> isil has claim responsibility for a suicide-bombing in a mosque in saudi arabia that has killed at least one person and injured 60. the explosion took place in the southwest of the country. the suspect's car has been found with a note inside to his parents confirming his plan to

many in the international community say there is no future role for assad in syria. russia said its airstrikes are targeting isil in syria. the statistics tell a different story. we'll take a closer look at the impact that russia's air campaign is having on the ground. >> the russian ministry of defense said that it has flown 900 missions since september 30th. in the past week it has destroyed 363 targets, including 71 command centers, 10 workshops, 30 ammunitions depos, and 252 field targets. it says it is targeting isil, the institute of study of war, an u.s.-based think tank said that russia's air complain is mainly hitting other syrian opposition groups in the countryside south of aleppo and

for highly prized copper handy crafts. that only started to change in 1990. at the time there were hundreds of stalls selling handmade copper goods in the market. now only around 15 shops remain with just 5 still crafting new pieces. >> the artisans of the copper market say it's not just wars, economic sanctions, lack of tourists have hurt their profession but it's the growing popularity of cheaply made factory goods produced in a similar style. this coffee bought was imported from india. goods like these are assembled by machines and made out of inexpensive materials but it costs a quarter of his handmade creations so he is left with little choice but to sell them to keep his business afloat. >> when i sell one of my

handmade items it feels like i'm parting with a piece of my body, would you believe? it's because i spent so many hours creating the piece. i dare these factory machines to craft such beautiful art like this. >> copper artisans are now calling on the government to invest in the industry, but few have much hope it will, and they're all but certain that copper craftmanship will soon disappear for good. al jazeera, at the market in central baghdad. >> a crackdown on the slow down. wind turbines are putting birds at risk. and jose mourinho is in trouble again. we'll have all the details coming up in sports.

police, but i think it is for their security. >> swamped by up to 15,000 hungry and exhausted new arrivals a day help for them and for the authorities can't come sunny enough. >> it's clear they had the votes needed for re-election. earlier he was one of the candidates claiming that sunday's poll was rigged and marred by fraud. meanwhile, heading to a run off after an close result. we have reports now from buenos aires.
