this is the aftermath of a magnitude 7.0 earthquake. many buildings and it's her province collapse within seconds killing dozens of people and injuring hundreds others were buried alive. this woman was pulled out of the rubble 17 hours after the earthquake. there are similar stories throughout our province. hear a mother waits nervously near a call ups building just stopping the rescue teams find her missing daughter she says she was working at a dental clinic went to earth quake struck. i don't know until the dentist had a couple of workers with him maybe she's there we're waiting willing we will have good news most of the collapsed buildings were apartment blocks in there were both to my nieces my uncles my grandmother and my family lives here including my daughter several families live here and we're waiting hopelessly. we're told the

concrete and i don't call ins in this building and very weak despite the structure being green force 4 years ago it's been less than 24 hours since the earthquake which gives some hope to the victims' families but the longer the search goes on the more difficult it's will be to find anyone alive. there have been more than 470 aftershocks since friday's earthquake people in this region of turkey and in nearby quake islands have been a warrant this could bring further damage. the turkish red crescent has sent tents bet's and food to the region but the pandemic and the need for social distancing could add yet another challenge to this disaster scene aka solo al-jazeera is made western turkey from minister of greece has traveled to the island of some most where 2 people died in the earthquake costs to talk is told the damage should

express his condolences to the victims' families some parts of the island are under a 6 month state of emergency in the aftermath of quake. police in france arrested a 3rd suspect linked to thursday's knife attack in the express. people were killed in the attack on the church a 3rd suspect was apparently present when police searched the home of a 2nd brand linked to the case on friday authorities have identified the 3rd victim of thursday's attack a 60 year old french national that day in the vias david chaytor reports now from the east. well so far the police have been very reticent to release any details but we do understand so far the barest outlines not only have we got a 47 year old man who's in custody we had a 35 year old man who was arrested here in east by members of the police anti-terrorist unit and then a few hours later they picked up another man a 33 year old man who was an associate of the 35 year old man that is all we've got

but clearly the police here are looking for any network that might have been behind giving help to the to the nice man who courses in hospital unconscious in a coma called 6 bullet wounds in him and is surrounded by the police and doctors are that's all the information we have on that but we have also had of course a lot of tributes here behind me at the priscilla as well as a few incidents of scuffling i must say were police were forced to intervene that's because there is beginning to be some sign of the division between the communities here in france and here especially in nice caused by this attack the brutal attack inside the basilica but there also for the 1st time senior members of the muslim community here across france are speaking out against the violence and we can hear

a clip now of one of the senior muslims the president of the muslim council in the city of rants let's hear what he had to say tribute mass last night and. christian brothers and sisters our dearest thoughts after this abject attack which plunges us into fear and astonishment that we can then with force and firmness terrorism and fanaticism will not succeed in destroying our precious links and our deep will to build together a united national community united and multi-faith. so there is very clear support for all the christian communities and for the the fear and the violent and the violence of call against the violence very clear stand but of course it goes against what we've also been hearing here on the streets of nice from local councilors local politicians they've been calling for a change in the constitution so that france can fight what is being called

a war against islamic ideology and another politician was saying that essentially there should be a french guantanamo so these are very unfortunate statements and there's got to be a chance to try and calm the divisions within france and with this community in nice and that's what everybody is attempting to do protesters in pakistan's biggest city of but effigies of french president to mariel mccraw but an angry angry protests across several muslim nations after emanuel mccrone defended the right to mock religion and to crack down on what he calls radical islam the rally in karachi follows similar protests in the capital islamabad friday but hundreds of people in ramallah in the west bank have joined process they chanted anti french slogans thousands of people also took part in rallies in hebron of east jerusalem earlier in the week and palestinian shops have been removing french products from the shelves. indonesia's president condemned 1st fatal attack on the basilica in nice

but criticized president because recent statements in. indonesia strongly condemns the statement made by the french president who insults the religion of islam which has hurt the feelings of muslims around the world this could divide the unity between religious communities worldwide when the world needs to be united in the fight against covert 19. associating religion with an act of terrorism is a big mistake terrorism and terrorist have nothing to do with any religion president across sat down with the saddam's 0 to discuss the way the rangar he says the radical islam that he's trying to fight is a threat to all people especially muslims. horney sentiments and even i understand the sentiments being expressed and i respect them but you must understand my role right now it's to do 2 things to promote calm and also to protect these rights because when you click. what i want to say is very clear that today in the world

there are people who distort islam and in the name of this religion that they claim to defend they kill they slaughter they make speeches justifying a kind of expulsion of human groups from the world today there is violence practiced by some extremist movements and individuals in the name of islam of course this is a problem for islam because muslims are the 1st victims and as i mentioned before more than 80 percent of the victims of terrorism are muslims and this is a problem for all of us. armenia is accusing as a buy shot of using volatile white phosphorus munitions in the autocad of black the ministry of foreign affairs released this video saying that civilian areas a nearby white phosphorus is considered an incendiary weapon its use is restricted under international law the fire that it causes is difficult to extinguish and it sticks to flesh making its burns more severe armenia's prime minister has asked russia for help and its conflict with us about israeli forces have made advances towards some locations in the disputed the got

a couple of counties there could sway the vote so donald trump is going to spend a lot of time there over the next 72 hours we also know the donald trump is very superstitious and he is trying to recreate what he did in 2016 he is criticizing joe biden on a regular basis he's saying that he should be locked up that the bidens are a crime family all the course of things he said about hillary clinton back in 2016 and his final rally is going to be in the same place he held his final rally back 4 years ago believing that that was a good omen for him then and will be a good omen for him no. $32000000.00 eligible voters of latino descent in the u.s. their political inclinations vary and they don't vote as a single block different cultural backgrounds economic status david religion played a role and how they cost the vote which is there was rob reynolds reports now from los angeles. for decades democratic party strategists have seen lefty know
