2:03 pm
family members. neighbors in this house alone, if you remember that newborn child, which was who was rescued still attached by the umbilical cord. she's now in hospital and she lost her whole family. so you have many stories like this here. but unlike in southern kiya here in syria, you don't see the international rescue teams who don't see an international aid effort to help the people on the ground. news of the opening of the 2 border crossings undoubtedly will help of the situation on the ground. so far, 8 has been trickling in from the bible, how of crossing? now the syrian government says it's going to allow a to enter from 2 other crossings from turkey and the international community, the united nations that are hoping that to their initial response, which really has been criticized, was inadequate. will step up. but people here are angry because they're saying why
2:04 pm
the united nations or the world have to wait for an approval from the syrian president charged us as you know, people here do not consider him a legitimate leader, but a brutal dictator who killed tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands of people during the course of the war. they were hoping that the international community would just use those routes without his approval. and the fear here is that what sharla is trying to do is gain political legitimacy by showing that he is still in charge. so you have that anger and at the same time, you also have a lot of frustration. people here feel that they were abandoned by the international, by the international community. while united nations has been under intense pressure to get more into series, rebel held northwest, it says 58 trucks of cross from turkey through the by about how a crossing during the past week. but it will start sending others now it has permission from the syrian regime to use the alarm and our re border crossings. the
2:05 pm
announcement of the decision or by prison outside to allow the 2 extra points from tech. yeah. and to no question was welcome. and of course, we are all urged to move quickly, implement that decision and to get trucks been been what this process wind agreement will do is to up the volume of supplies that we will be able to use in small west syria. well, let's get more on the humanitarian operation with mark shackle. his head of operations for doctors without borders on the ticket. syria was once unless he joins enough for him to buy some mark. first up at the opening of 2 more border crossings. just how important is that for the relief effort. busy yes, it's important because the west is land locked region that you did, you turn to access,
2:06 pm
we need to recognize the key so they can have been issued from the left or 8 and the depend or not on the you may call it the open house. so yes, so we went from any possibility to and supplier in this area despite the fact that he don't she or we don't know exactly how would be more than happy to send this just like in this area. right. so tell us more about the need as far as you know, it within that zone where it's so little help and relief is reached so far. yeah. so as i said, they don't know switched. sure. i really didn't been issued from a neighboring area. and we have seen very important damages in areas like engine. we have seen the hospital, that means that has collapsed and who are partially functioning. so the 1st immediate response that you manage to implement,
2:07 pm
or we behalf of our own staff or inside of this area, they are all managing their own digital keys and from you. and at the same time st bookings on hostetter. so the images response we managed to to implement is 1st a primary needs like food, the blankets, center and basic needs for the hospitals to maintain the continuity of care and to cope with the influence of injury. that's, that's the change they one and they to and that's the thing is if it, those you have survived this, this terrible situation, it's dealing with injuries that may not have been life threatening, but will certainly could be life changing. yes, of course. and i think the needs will appear more times. time time passes, the more need to pay out. of course we fine or less chances to find your virus, but that lot of people who have important injuries that need a proper treatment,
2:08 pm
sometimes surgery and 1st. so she can read the patient care, and we are also concerned about mental health and psychosocial, st. both of these rebel population who is facing that you many times situation since many, you know, i'm not starting with the upgrade. and the, if you could, they could make situation of the like of your perspective may, may aggravate some mental has, although yes indeed. and now the immediate rescue effort and immediate relief effort at the base, incredibly important obviously, but moving on, it's going to be dealing with the millions of displaced and keeping them healthy. how do you even begin to try to drop a logistical approach to that? because it's given the numbers, it must be nice when possible. it's last year and it's going to be a big challenge. so we already had an emergency or already in the places where we were inside the northwest,
2:09 pm
syria. and so we were able to respond rather quickly. and now the challenge is to bring addition, i mean, you can make, you can like tense. and so the challenge will be to ring the supplier quickly into, into the area that much, much appreciate you making just here or not. is there a thanks very much and if not, you come from talk about what is thinking were there all still stories of survival and hope and turkey for people who be rescued ought to be trapped under the rebel for a 190 dances. more in 8 days, 2 of them were brothers. they've been taken to hospital for urgent treatment. russell said are joins us live now from the tech, a city of any man where one of the people was rescued. so and wrestled despite it all still 8 days on some extraordinary tales of survival. that school right, so at the amman is having its, its biggest disaster health. it's known as history. however,
2:10 pm
now we have received some good news as well just couple of hours ago. ah, after stay in under the robles for more than 198 hours and 18 years old boy has been rescued and he was alive. it was a moment of joy for his family and of rescue teams as well. so it is also increase in the hopes that for the rescue teams are for the families that are waiting because they are in hope that may date of day relatives or so might come alive. and just right over there, around an hour ago, the rescue teams has called for an ambulance, and there was quite an excitement grades over there. and they said that they had detected another voice. and they have believed that there is one person that is still alive and they started to dig into the. busy robs trying to reach that person as of now we do not know the identity off off the was the person that is under the rebels. however, around 30 minutes ago, the ambulance,
2:11 pm
this laughter and the funeral services cars just arrived there. so steadiness, death, the possibility of the person being still alive is now going down. it is we hope that and assess store is not going to unfold us. and we hope that who will be able to join the celebration of a family to receive the if one of the relatives alive of other as i said, that the ambulances laughed. and. busy that the funeral services court just arrived and is still there. so did the rescued him still working and trying to get that by the out. right over here. you can see that the clock cover. it is the symbol off at the amman, and it shows exact time off, earthquake when it is there that, that the city over a week ago, a for a 17, a yam in the morning and that close, just stop there. people here says that the life of the time has stop in this city.
2:12 pm
and over there you can see another block that is completely level down. the rescue teams or civil relentlessly working heavy lifting machinery is asked to wait till segers are still working. oliver, we do not know whether there is any one who is still alive on the death problems. this is just one of that. across the city. there are tons of such scenes, and particularly the city center has been mostly destroyed here just a little ago. i was talking to that the deputy mayor of the city and he told me that so far they have buried more than a 1000 people and they're estimating that this number probably is going to be somewhere between 10000 to 15. it is quite big. it's too much for a city of this size so all so people here aren't quite angry. they said that particularly for the 1st 3 days, they didn't receive enough aid that wasn't escalators. there wouldn't the diggers,
2:13 pm
heavy lifting missionaries and also lack of court. the mission here, they say if they had that, probably many of those we have by could be rescued. and also the mayor of the city has told me very tragic story that not far from the city. there were 3 cities or over the top of the mountain here, and i said that for days we not reach to that village is due to the weather conditions that were under the snow and the roads were closed off the 3 days the military helicopters could manage to have access to the village, and one of the wilderness was completely level gone and no one in that village came alive and most tragically. he said that the walls that came down to the, to the wheel edge and then the rescue team had to access to the village. they have seen many of the bodies that bodies bitten being, being apart or being eaten by the walls here. so these are the tragedies in the
2:14 pm
city of russell hi, thanks very much indeed. personal set of them. well, stephanie deca has more now from carmel mulash, where most virus were found. the overwhelming reality is that it is the dads that are being brought out of the rubble. we've just had one body of brought out of where the work is going on. you could probably see the operation going on pretty much a recovery operation. 22 bodies. we understand remain, you do still have, so i'm hoping you could probably see those in blue. these are a chinese listening team. they keep going in and out with our equipment so they keep trying to listen. when the bulldozers now you see about 4 or 5 of them, one is starting to move again. they go silent to try and listen. we had to french search and rescue teams also come in earlier. they were looking, they'd had a call saying that someone said they heard a voice from around this area. they then entered the area. so there is still this
2:15 pm
sort of, i suppose, hope 8 days later because these specialized international teams are the ones that have the listening equipment that have the, the rescue dogs that identify life. this is something that we had yesterday. we were waiting for that to search and rescue when they did find those 2 young men in the and an anchor of the turkish government. as facing accusations of failing to take precautions to minimize earthquake damage, opposition. politicians say the government did not act on advice from experts who warned of impending danger sooner. consumer reports now from the capital turkish flags have been raised up again in the capital ankara after a week of national mourning for the 10s of thousands of people killed by 2 major earthquakes in the southern region. opposition, party say, much of the distraction could have been avoided if the government had hated the warnings by experts of an impeding quake. this video is from last summer. it shows
2:16 pm
an opposition politician and cut him on marsh. the epicenter of last week's earthquake urging the authorities to take will be cushions to minimize damage. yes, he did listen. they're all pointed as of the opposition. the party has been visiting the quick affected region and is accusing the government of its late response. he says the damaged infrastructure, which cut access to some areas was also built by the current government would be for dr. an umbrella. it is a disaster that after 20 years of governing as a single party, you haven't taken any necessary measures here. despite that, there was an earthquake 3 years ago. there's no excuse for move up seeking accountability is another thing, but it's a systemic issue. we'll solve this altogether, though. we don't have time for reproach or descent. last week, turkish president treasure tape are. john inspected the ongoing rescue and relief
2:17 pm
efforts in all 10 cities affected by the quick and acknowledged problems with the initial response. if or took a cool were dealing with this disaster with common sense and collect of wisdom. bush for all of our ministers, especially our president, have regular contact without teams in the field. we manage this process based on field feedback and consultations. this is a collaborative effort between our ministries and related organizations. all parties in a turkish parliament, including the governing up party, have mobilized their members to help the victims to the case for appearing for a presidential election. that is most likely the most difficult for president ridge of tape or john, who's been in power for more than 20 years. last, monday's earthquakes will almost certainly have political ramifications for now what size appear to suspend that they are campaigns as they work to help millions who have been affect it. see nampa solo al jazeera on kyra,
