1:12 pm

1:13 pm
so sunday they call us to use our love. and sunday, we had them with their rescue because they, they stopped my sheet and we rescued by. have you are telling me that you found the children in their beds? yes. these children the say was that in yula we rescue to get us on mother and they were inside of it. the was hurry was cleaned up these hopping at 4 in the night. everybody was sleeping every building. i call out a lot of people at home. but they will think that they are warm there, they will survive because they are inside their blankets. not they, these children. they where they, they but they survive. and because we have hot, horrible nights here, we are using every blows we have very cold yet you ready? when we did meetings back to dispatch, we were prepared, but not these horrible. thank you very much. you know very much mr. go to. so that gives you a sense of what is going on here. how difficult the rescue operation is. but of course some good news in the sense that they have confirmed that people are alive,
1:14 pm
their family members of those people are sitting here watching. i don't think we can begin to imagine what kind of anxiety they have. one of the, one of the family members try to run through the rubble to get to closer where they're working and the turkish military is here as well. they helped her back. so i describable emotion and difficulty for the families here, but this as i was saying, sammy, a very rare so far. good news. everyone here of course hoping ah, that we're going to see them pulled out alive at some point. absolutely. certainly a lot thought of good news is becoming rarer, of course, because so many others have died. and here's the thing we need to know with the body count. they only count the number of dead bodies once the body has been identified. and that means it's estimated that around half of the people who dive half of the bodies which have been collected have not been counted yet because they haven't been identified. and as bernard smith reports from the scanned room,
1:15 pm
that means a lot of graves of filling up the, i don't like, we are in indian field hospital in a scam durham, it's actually in a school. we're across from the road from the main hospital, which is still closed. this area is now been 9 star from india 30 to 2000 and i treated now 1500 people interesting. they started treating a trauma, but that has changed. they talk to treating, crush injuries that have to amputate somebody's language in the last couple of days . thoughts changed that now treating infectious diseases because of the poor on
1:16 pm
a taishan here, they're treating gastro. intestinal problems, the track problems, and they're even diagnosing. initially, a lot of p t s d, which is very understandable indian don't know how much longer that would be helpful. they don't reach the peak of the patients they have, but in the scanner, and this is the only medical facility there is at the moment. and yes, the death toll it's fed will continue to rise because here they only count the number of dad once they've been identified. and he's estimated there, about half of the people have not been identified and now buried without being identified so far as scantrons grave because must work quickly. the noise from the heavy machinery disturbs what is normally a peaceful place. all of the beauty salon waits with
1:17 pm
her surviving family for the bodies of one of her sons. his wife and the 3 children killed my son because they didn't send a crane to do the rescue. did my son have nothing to give this state? didn't he served them? he was the best mathematics teacher in hattie. how could that conscience accept this? after all of his other, all survive as contend and prey by the freshly dug graves of their loved ones? not all of the dead have been identified. so they are buried here. it's respectfully dumb, but there's little ceremony a no mourners, and sometimes not much left to bury. the victim is now a number d, n a samples of been taken. if anyone comes looking in the future, only the dead who've been identified, accounted in the official death, told some estimate, saw that the identity of around half those killed in monday's earthquakes is unknown. the manager here, the cemetery, tells us these plots all the way up to the fence will take about 4 years to be
1:18 pm
filled up beforehand now in 3 to 4 days from the distraught survivors. the complaint we've heard regularly this past week that the government's rescue effort has been too slow. that you are a tyrant, you have no conscience. you took my 5 kids. how could you let a whole family disappear because of a crane? they are still under the rubble for 7 days now. even if they got winded by the quake, they are already dead now. you killed them. turkeys president has admitted failings in the initial response to the earthquake. reggie type bird one says the rebuilding will start within weeks. the frustration here is why did those buildings collapse in the 1st place? the now the end in military says they will be here as long as that needed when it reaches when the numbers start to drop off, they've not started dropping off yet. and there's no indication we don't know yet when the main hospital of is 100 will re open. so for the time being its own,
1:19 pm
we end in indian military providing immediate medical release here and it's tommy back. thank you so much, bernard. well, we've had an update here concerning jet on the little girl who's trapped in the rubble behind us. they've now brought her out and sadly, she is not alive. i witnessed her mother collapse. very difficult scene. there are 14 other people we believe inside. i'm going to see if we can get em right to get the drone working drawn the challenge show to challenge, you know. ok, well, the drone now i think so in that, in those rubble just behind the, the bull. those is there. 14 people are trapped there trying to get them out. now, just to let you know, we are situated at a safe distance so that we don't interrupt with any sound that we're making that we
1:20 pm
don't interrupt any moments when they need to go silent to detect any sign of life . i just wanted to point that one out. it's a very difficult situation, of course, a very hard situation. you can imagine the stress and tension that those families are feeling not knowing what the faith is of the rest of those 14 people. especially when one of them was brought out sadly, not live. that puts an immense weight on the nerves of everybody else. you might be able to see a lot of the people gathered around here waiting for any news about their loved ones too. there's also been some touching moments we were standing out here. it's deceptively sunny, but it's, it's called in every meaning of the word here. 2 girls came up to our camera land while fatigue. they felt sorry for off. there have been remarkable moments of
1:21 pm
generosity, unkindness. also though, as in any. busy emergency situation, there are some very difficult things where people get desperate natasha, of a name has been witnessing some of this going on. some of the loosing that's been happening. in fact, she brings us up to speed. now with that, stealing out of sheer desperation after a devastating earthquake is something says our son, mez can empathize with. he's been living in a tete with his family after his home was damaged. the shoe store owner estimates nearly 7000 pairs of shoes were stolen. his please to the looters to only take what they needed were ignored. yet he speaks with an aura of calm, residual mother. we have so many brothers who have died till i just, i live with the pain inside of me. i'm ready to do whatever i come. i have no other option, but to be calm. this isn't our culture as a country, we can understand people, you'll believe that would have been she,
1:22 pm
the commercial district and the ancient city of antonia was deserted on sunday. but for business owners and employees, salvaging what they could by the handful, often endangering themselves by entering the hopes of structurally unsound buildings. many are homeless and in morning everyone seems to know not just one, but dozens of people who have died from you should know a lot of you lose the museums, electrical jesus, when i see other shops, i thank god other places are worse, as people have lost their lives, we can fix our businesses and continue. may god help every william of thousands of trucks full of humanitarian aid had been dispatched to the southern provinces. there have been some instances of that aid being stolen. 57 people have been arrested. according to the ministry of justice, president irwin says, looters, any one who engages in corruption or capitalizes on this catastrophe will be
1:23 pm
punished. and this is why he declared a 3 month state of emergency in the earthquake. so now the people here say they expect the government to honor its pledges to rebuild their diverse city and hope will be distributed equally. because this we are living together like brothers and sisters. this is a city of civilizations. we are used to living like this. and we don't want the government to discriminate with regards to the situation. people are being asked to evacuate, but those we spoke to say with so many people they know still buried beneath the rubble. they can't leave just yet. natasha name al jazeera on talk. yeah. her care and that issue that natasha was talking about that people's expectations of the government will honor a commitment as time goes by. now one we call and as you can imagine,
1:24 pm
with every hour that policy, the needs increase and the expectation of government officials rise. let's talk about how the government is handling that. we can go with this call. so the she joins us now from anchor fit. and how are they dealing with all of these rising expectations? well, yes, since the death damage caused my dirt, quake is huge. the cat esser of is huge, expectations are high to sammy, and you've been with the thing that are in the field in those cities for a while right now. 10 cities have been heads and we're talking about, or at least 2 point half 1000000 housing. and at 13 and a half 1000000 people air for now, the survivors of the earthquake have been taken to a universe to dormitories. but a at the present also announced that this is the universes are closed this semester
1:25 pm
for its spring semester. and it's going to be online across to care, but of course, these do not meet the expectations. people want to be safe. people want to be living in a proper place. and he promised that he will the rebuild. those are he will replace those buildings. that collapse in a year. the problem of the cities is that they have been established. they have been built on default lines. a wrong example of organisation into the care, which is not only the heritage of the a ruling act party in the 20 years. but it goes back to 19 fifties and sixties, so we're talking about, oh, maybe is 70 years of mistakes, or that's why how this area is going to be rehabilitated and how the money is going to be financed. is there question mark? expectations are high, have the government is going to deal with this is still and known, but or the president seems determined air to cure those wounds of his
1:26 pm
people in the region. on the other hand, the id the id that there was a problem of accessing to these areas that needed rescue on the 1st 24 hours. and the government has been under harsh criticism against and not being able to earn sent relief to those areas. because the 1st 24 hours is the most important duration to save lives. this is what we all know even as irregular citizens. however, do they x they acknowledge that they had some mistakes and, and they lacked the air. they lacked air accession. and on the other hand, says the military is also on the ground and they are in charge of public order. they are helping the rescue teams and they are helping to pull out a people from under the robbers. we had spoken to them and what we received as a response was interesting. and when there is quick happened, it because of the winter conditions, the weather was so bad, there was snow, and the airports were closed because of the weather conditions. even the military
1:27 pm
says are for air helicopters and our planes couldn't take off air. this is one of the reasons that's why they had to earth see, oversee the area through drones, which is sad, but also the climate conditions didn't allow them. this is what the officials say by so i said, of course all are from anchor a van c. them mentioned that they're trying to house some of the survivors in university dorms. while our correspondent acid bag has been with the university students in this stumble as they vacate their dorms to make way, make room for some of the survivors. after being told the news, the government plan to has earthquake survivors in university accommodation. these students in istanbul had to vacate their dorms at short notice because their belongings and said their good byes losses would now be moved online until the end of june girl, to hubbard, after the president made a speech the same evening. we learned that our blocks will be emptied. we are sad.
1:28 pm
it's like the pandemic period. we will have online educational. we do not want this and we have some criticisms that may god grant us to build and we have nothing to do or making a sacrifice on our education is bothering me a bit to be honest. living blocker sheltered parents came to help their children pack and move. we do want to do our part to help the families in need. i am sad that i'm not going to go to school, but also the situation is pretty bad. so i know that families need a place to say so. yeah, i don't really feel too bad. then ty, education system in the affected areas has been hit. but the government says it's determined to make sure there is minimum destruction education. trina copeland, my year litigation by building additional tense, we will support our children's learning process and conduct a series of activities to normalize life. we have up to 141 tents. in the instance . we have 3 school teachers and psychological counseling and guide exam. all our
1:29 pm
teachers on duty inside the dorms, they're ready to receive evacuees. here in istanbul, most of the students we spoke to were happy to be doing their bit. not all students have to leave those with family affected by the earthquake international students. medical students, as well as the old, with no found me. they can stay with can all remain. but this is a part of the effort and sacrifice the entire country has been asked to make to deal with this disaster. i said vague al jazeera assemble, dorothea let's remember, of course, that this earthquake did not only hit sort of kit. it also hit syria and that is a country that was already struggling with a war going on there with displacement from that conflict. as agencies pointed out, already for more than 4000000 people was surviving on a before the earthquake. well, we've been speaking to one man showing his disappointments, his anger,
1:30 pm
so many are feeling with the international community saying they feel they've been left down by the world. the well this morning. i'm here to watch. you remember, you'll still book the memories here. i see my sister's rest, her son's clothes, and all of them there smell is here because when they remove everything, i won't come back. i say here's their car because i don't like their water tank. a lot of the solar panels, memories, good job sort of the whole world lead the syrian people down. this is struction was in europe or any other foreign country. the whole world would have gathered here to rescue those killed runs gun. but here, no one care where displace football want ask about german and we were bomb. barrel
1:31 pm
bombs were dropped but no one cared about us. on 5th, i didn't know we're getting nothing from turkey not and not from the government side. we hear the see whether it's played a vital and crucial element here off your out. we can do mean you can see the people how wrapped top they although it looks funny here, it's quite cold. the called the fact everything of what takes everything. you know, your. busy ability to survive and so maybe this is a good point to bring in our weather. busy expert rob, give us an update on what the weather conditions looking like for those surviving this earthquake scenario in turkey and syria. yeah, cold has been the enduring problem, sammy, but not everyone is suffering just the cold out in rural turkey. so to the north of you about a 100 case away,
1:32 pm
there is still snow on the ground. no snow river never really watch much of a feature. for the most part, there's still being search, but here it get down to below minus 20 at night and doesn't get above during that this is rural turkey. so doesn't cover most of our but kelly is very bad there. most places and this is count conditions, temperature get above freezing by day and there is no snow forming at the sky as you have seen because we just be walking around. sunshine is the major part during the day. but where there is some class in the fond or it will bring some snow it not other think until wednesday and not the most part. it's a night time frost. again, we go down to typically minus 3, minus 5. as i mentioned in rural areas in the man just minus 20 or miss minus 30 said the code is still there. and throughout the day and night despite the sunshine, temperatures are below average. but they've been persistently that way. as i said, i don't think the weather will change very much. this is tuesday, the daytime. therefore it's sunshine once more, if i pick aleppo,
1:33 pm
as an example of the search and rescue area in northern syria bar days by 8 or 9 by 9 minus 3. quite typically, and a ticket took his 5 times as a lower, as i say, if an amount is lower, still no real sign of snow, but it is going to be any will be on wednesday and just getting to north of our area, the flutter of the nice part is just temperature semi and that has been the enduring problem. back to usa. yeah, let's hope those temperatures warm up a little bit. thanks so much from. well, let's talk now about the situation that i was telling about earlier here where we've got a rescue operation underway. i'm delighted to have joining us. come on the good amanda thing. he's from the indian contingent, which was brought in specially to try and help out with the 3 other teams here. good to have you with us thing. any updates on the situation with, well, we know, jet on, sadly the young girl she was pulled out, not alive,
1:34 pm
but there are others we believe they are still alive right on this new, doggie garden highway is a big story building which collapsed up to the quick yesterday the local party, the executed 11 girl and she and 5 that was pulled down yesterday successfully. and then she informed me that there is a possibility of our sister being alive and then the operation is gotten in since yesterday and the mdf and also brought in the morning to the 3 pnc which i already working here. and unfortunately, she could not survive when another day trying to trying to ation. but other than that and get on, we believe there are other people still in that rubble, right? the information given by the local,
1:35 pm
they're supposed to be 40 more people who are trapped inside that oven. do we have any idea about the condition if they're alive? you know, i know it's a tough question, but that's the question. i'm sure relatives want to know as well as the rest of the world. today's the day the chances are diminishing with every passing moment. we had tried to the technical method in the the can, i'm scored is also here. till now we didn't find any signs of more life, but we are still hopeful because you never know the american may happen. so we are still continuing the the working on that. busy this is a question that he's asked a lot by relatives, and i want to ask it to you and don't take it as a form of blame. but why is it taking so long? explain to view as explain class. why is it taking so long rather to say,
1:36 pm
forget my loved ones out these type of operation collab such as collapse structure such and ask you, they are very delicate operation. and the all operation is divided into 5 pages. if 1234, and 5 and the delicate, because if you make the wrong move, you could kill the people inside or even kill your own workers, right? yes. now it's going to be difficult. with every passing day, the heavy machinery is also coming into play. so it's very difficult because we are trained to work. and when, when we use our tools and equipment and fences, you know, most of the stuff makes sense and it may not be a function for technical rescue is very difficult when so many so many have a machine reason. i don't play on ground, but that is the way you are to do it. we are moving floor by floor and searching
1:37 pm
for the life. i know this is probably very difficult question, talks about very briefly, how long before we know that these people are out as long as there's this hope left, we can do that on sundays. hope. thank you very much on the thing. thank you. well, that brings us now to the end of our special coverage, the situation hardly the jet on one of the more than $37000.00 people across to can syria who died in this earthquake and the sliver of good news, such as her sister thought it pulled out rescued, but the hope goes on that 14 more people here and another 5 will be among those who are incredibly. why's this tragic earthquake? i'll hand you back to folly and darnell for more of the day's news. sammy,
1:38 pm
