5:03 pm
that we have asked to, we have shot. and if there is someone that she is us, but they, they didn't hear any wars. however, that disabled man who has been just rescued, he said that he is alive. so the hopes here are high and rescue team team saying that within an hour hopefully they will reach him and pick him also out and hopefully hopefully alive. so just today, a couple of couple of hours ago, another girl who was just 3 and household half years old. she also has been rescued, and these are the moments of joy. so these are supposed woman's in the city because the city of carmen mirage is the worst, his city by the earthquake. and he has seen so much tragedies, so much sad stories, all much lives torn apart. so that's why this, it definitely needs such such good stories of the 110. i was late there as i said, a disabled man. his name was charles hm. tata. and he has been rescued alive and
5:04 pm
people that are hoping to have more and more of such stories. here. however, there's rubble on his rubble. you can see that it's completely level down blocks after blocks. apartments off that apartments are, are collapsed here and right there. on the top of the rubble rescue. tim asked the rescuer to come there and now they're stepping up the air force and dig in because they have detected some people right over there. and now they're digging the walls, trying to reach below and to take more people, as i said, hopefully them also a life i've ever to the last 24 hours here. we have seen dozens and dozens of that buddies coming out. just in the last couple of hours. they have counted roughly around 14, the people being taken out and then put in the black bag and then carry a, carry to the abilene and says, so these buildings are now almost, i can describe them as fresh graveyard. and over there, you can see that the rescue force are still continues frantic. you haven't lived in
5:05 pm
machinery. thought that we're cold rescue teams joined by the military as well. i'm also families are also joining the rescue air force. i was just talking to one of the guy who help actually the chasm cut out the disabled man to be rescued. he himself has lots of his family members found this collab building, his sister, his uncle, and his, his own. they are still on there. there's robert here, so this is just one of the themes in the city that you can see across the cities. and you will see towns of thought seems the tragedies are unfolding here. and the families are anxiously waiting days and nights, particularly during the night. the weather conditions are extreme, however, they said that they're not going to leave here without getting their loved ones out from the levels. however, the route the time is running out and the hopes are fading soda and cut them on.
5:06 pm
mush. stephanie decker has more on rescue operations in the town of no diary in guessing chaps robins at this point. if anyone is pulled alive from the rubble, it's seen as a bit of a miracle we've been here all day. this is a building that still has 28 people buried underneath it. we've been speaking to the family members here. they have lost hope at this stage. ah, what they were telling us is like we're waiting. we're waiting for the barry bodies to be able to bury them. as you can see, it's a massive rescue operation. you have army, you have volunteers, and what they do is they use heavy machinery. they use their hands, you shovels, use smaller machinery to try and get to the rooms. one of them was telling us, and none of them are allowed a one to speak on camera, but they work on a room to room basis, knowing that most people will be found in the bedroom. right? because that's when the quite struck around 4, 17 in the morning. but what's, what's really striking here, what's really heartbreaking and so difficult to comprehend is how and how entire
5:07 pm
families were wiped out in one moment. one man here is waiting for 6 family members, 2 of them we saw brought out today in body bags. and we've had that seen that again . again, what they do is they'll cover the area with, with, with blankets to try and offer some dignity. they ask us to turn the camera off, particularly if we're not live, to not film it to give some dignity in the final moments. but it's, it's, it's incredibly difficult to show you the devastation here as well. you just drive down this road and everything is pretty much either pulverized or the houses are rescue or apartment blocks are completely, you know, have got their windows and half of them are down. it's it, it's, it's a real, i think, is the only way to comprehend it. cracks have been reported in at least 6 dams, across to kia after mondays. earthquakes is left money worried after damaged jobs, cause flooding in some parts of syria. some is dan's at the se hum dom right outside the turkey city of a donna. this potter turkey is full of dams,
5:08 pm
according to some n g o is estimates. 75 percent of the country's dams and reservoir located in this part of turkey. so you can imagine with all the communities that live along the dams what that means, god forbid, if there was a catastrophe. if we have that kind of serious scenario to lose scenario here, that would obviously be a major issue. i spoke to the minister of agriculture and forestry, who's responsible for maintaining those times and he said, look where across it we've checked 120 out of 140 reservoir and dams. we only found cracks in 6 of them. none of them are in a critical sort of life threatening condition, but we've got an ice on it, but he said, you know, want to be honest. the biggest thing about is the impact of any problems with dams on the syrian side of the border. impacting villages close to the turkey syrian
5:09 pm
border, particularly around the hot high region. the turkish presidents been turning the air is affected by the brake. red ships i've heard once spoke with the victims of the disaster in shelters. it was an edge of mine and there on friday, the president defended his government's response. is, administration is been accused of being too slow to get emergency services to the affected areas of sucks. it's not that much. there's of course, to have been shortcomings that problems the government has faced and responding. but i want to inform you that our government and all of our institutions from the moment these are quick struck, have been doing their very best to help everyone. the welcome to sit on costello's at the turkish government relief coordination center in the capital ankara. and we had a chance to speak to one of the agency, disaster management agency officials. and he said, yes, there are some places that we weren't able to reach out to. we couldn't go to some of the places where aware of that. and the turkish president also accepted this on
5:10 pm
a. but of course, we are hearing lots of stories from, from the field as our reporters have been explaining since the beginning of this earthquake. and we are also listening to people that we can reach out to a talk on the phone a. but apparently it also seems as not very possible to reach everywhere because the offer, the disaster management agency representative. it told us that the area that the earthquake affected is more than 100000 square kilometers and. and according to the environment ministry that inhabited, there are 13 and a half 1000000 inhabitants in this area, which means those millions are directly affected. and one was to pick people. everybody has some one trapped under those rebels, at least one person a from that area. so this is a difficult task. we sometimes we calculate, we do mathematics with our friends here. ah, this is
5:11 pm
a very tough job and there are more than 120000 search and rescue teams on the ground. these are the turkish rescue teams. and so far, nearly 7000 international rescue teams have arrived and they have been in the, in the field a trying to rescue those people trapped on the drugs. and they're going to be more coming. and ever they more international aid and more international. a search and rescue teams are arriving and trickier. tatiana rossetto is professor earthquake engineering at university college london. she says many buildings in the area affected by the traumas were old on fragile. the quick with definitely massive events and actually not just one, but 2 very large events that have happened in rapid succession. so we would expect that to be non damage. this is an area and a mattress region, which essentially is old in terms of it or the nation. so the buildings that are there, the older buildings are definitely vulnerable to,
5:12 pm
to fix the ground shaking. and it's actually mainly the buildings that were built in the last 10 years. that would have had any level of seismic design. because in turkey is, it's a very advanced cone. however, it also would not have had taken into account the occurrence of 2 larger crates and we see images, all videos of modern buildings that were standing after the 1st earthquakes event will eat. and then at least 2 people, including a 6 year old child, have been killed in a running attack in the occupied why spank the drive? a reportedly targeted people waiting at a bus stop near the illegal is ready. settlement of our march. we're going to go to satisfy that, who's live at the scene for us. what more do we know about what's been happening? i want to drive down
5:13 pm
that part of the road, came along and ran into the bus. stop that you can see just behind me here. now since the throbbing, the locals have put top is really flag or reminds that in a way of the sole desires see that is being felt amongst especially the ultra orthodox israeli community that have been targeted quite a few times. now, in the last couple of weeks so far, what we do know is that one child was killed a 6 year old as well as a man in his seas. there have been several other injuries, 6 people. they were reports that they ruled from the same family, but we're not clear on that just yet. now, the palestinian that carried out the attack is a man in his twenties who comes from occupied east jerusalem from a neighbourhood called i thought well,
5:14 pm
and this neighborhood is known for israeli raised carried out on local palestinians as well as the militia. and in an area that is over crowded, this particular area that we are in right now is, is writing specimen is called around most and it's on land that was occupied by the israelis in 1967. now tensions are extremely high between the israelis and palestinians. and since this attack, which only rarely happens in the last couple of hours, what we've seen is that the israeli security forces have already started their raids on the neighborhood that the palestinian attacker is from benjamin is from yahoo! the israeli prime minister has already, or the demolition of his home. a loss of palestinians tend to live together as one family in one building or one home. so what we're saying is
5:15 pm
a continuation of that collective punishment punishment rather which the israeli new government has missed will be happening from now on new measures. what introduced a couple of weeks ago that was straight offer and that was carried out by a palestinian outside of a synagogue in jerusalem. and some of those measures have included demolition for home. not only just going to the pack up, but also to the families that are living with them and even looking to do meshes to revoke the residency permit for jurors. and that whole, the palestinians living here in this community which is mostly ultra orthodox, they are concerned. they say they're concerned because some of these attacks they feel targeted. one of the new measures that's being introduced by the national security member, been given who recently just within law. so let's say 45 minutes was this fun and
5:16 pm
husband of every attack. one of those measures is to false truck gone the licenses on civilians. the israeli police person said that the person, the neutralized and his own would be policy. an attacker was an armed security member who was also juicy. and this is something that a lot of the communities is asking for, and they want more people more people on the street more on people. i'm not including the national security minister who's been pushing for that, which has been given what we're going to be saying moving forward is a lot more collective punishment by the israeli for should against the palestinians, especially those in the occupied territories. telecom. thank you. still ahead and al jazeera, thousands of forced to fleet as m. 23 fighters close in, and a key town in eastern democratic republic of congo and freedom for more than 200 political prisoners because government witnesses dissidence and sends them to the

5:19 pm
ah ah ah ah, watching what is it a reminder? what top stories this of at least 2 people, including a 6 year old child, are being killed and a running attack in the occupied westbank will drive up, reportedly targeted people waiting at a bus stop. nearby illegal is really settlement of romance. more than 4 days have passed since 2 powerful earthquakes, it took kia and syria over 22000 people have been reported data across both countries. and rescue teams continue to dig through the rubble searching for
5:20 pm
survivors often by hand. freezing temperature as a snow of the slowing down their efforts. 6 trucks carrying aid from the united nations of arrived in northern syria. it's the 1st convoy to reach ronald held areas in the country since the earthquakes, but hasn't caught reports much more help is needed. lives lost, shattered by mondays, earthquakes, northwest, syria's humanitarian crisis, made worse. the region was hit just as hard as cities across southern turkey. but here the people devastated by over a decade of war. wait for help already. millions, live intense. the quake has made tens of thousands more homeless. but it homes 90 percent by family and living in this is tina. we lost our homes. we need everything, clothes 1st. the children are always hungry. we have nothing to keep warm. rescue
5:21 pm
teams have been working non stop with little resources and alone as hopes of finding survivors fade. they say they have been abandoned by the international community to face the worst disaster they have encountered. requests for heavy machinery never came on thursday. the you and acknowledged search and rescue operations covered 5 percent of the devastated sites. while the last 27 members of our family into quick 7 bodies have still not been, let's see if the civil defense needs help. the cross border 8 operation from 38 resumed on thursday after it was disrupted partly to damage to infrastructure on both sides of the border. but the un was criticized for providing what many said were in significant supplies. it says more assistance is coming. agencies, however, say politics is getting in the way of using more direct and effective routes. are
5:22 pm
report ways out. several concrete ways that that could happen. opening additional cross border routes from turkey, opening up cross line channels from other parts of syria, including the north east towards the rocky border or the south. obviously there would need to be a lot of guarantees of non interference that the government would need to accept in order for that channel to work and then an air bridge. government areas to are in a dire situation. un agencies which operate there are promising to scale up response across the country. but to cross the front lines they need approval from damascus, which has been accused of using access as a political pressure. and to use more border crossings will require a un resolution because of the objection of the syrian government and it's russian ally. so what we need is that capacity to scale up existing type of, of response that existed priority of quake. and mean the question of cross playing across boys would almost say is a moot point in many ways because what we need is,
5:23 pm
and what that works, medical support is needed to an already crumbling infrastructure. the crisis deepens in this war torn land center holder. elisha's ita. once every man lost his children and his wife and the earthquakes not at all were cough says his people are more used to bombs than tremors. it is santa tuba. this note is from hipaa, a hubbub. and this is hipaa. my eldest daughter, who died of berlin. god help me im when her laura del be up with her. she's gone. my god, father cassandra. but when she are marsh, he was around for 10 a. m. how shook implant one her 2 wonderful applause
