9:05 pm
into a major earthquake. i don't know in the history of united masons that they had not responded to something, and it's the hardest area in syria. in government control, territories, planes loaded with humanitarian aid have been arriving continuously. there also where united nations agencies are based in the north, the u and has acknowledged failing syria with an adequate response. it says that will change, but many here are doubtful. there will be any sustained international help. min namath does welcome we have no heat, has no blankets is nothing, just a tent over our heads, while our shops were destroyed, who will help us to rebuild our lives? and in the scars of 12 years of war have still not healed in a region where millions are displaced and poor. now there is a new crisis for a people whose sole purpose has long been to survive then for their elders, ada, northwest, syria, holl aid agencies,
9:06 pm
a warning 5000000 syrians may have been left homeless by the devastating earthquakes. these are the stories of some of those. they're worried about one la, hey, younger massage overtime. people are working day and night, but we need to find refuge. but don't know where we are waiting for god to give us relief. as you know, it is winter. now there are women and children, so we need to secure heating that security food water, which is a minimum until things get more organized and i and the i got the nas model. finally, i got another little denise of the displeased or known attempt foods and water. we receive food aid and many good people help. we still need food and water, nothing more than that now. thank god, we now took refuge in this sense. vladimir lost everything around me. i lost every one i know in the 3 buildings that used to be next to me. i lost my neighbors in my children's 7 friends in the building. next to us, we lost
9:07 pm
a large number of people who used to live near us. my neighbors, my friends, colleagues and partners. how many, but i did any of bobby or well as time goes on, the number of people being pulled out of the rubble alive. that number is getting smaller by the hour, and despite the odds there still are some good stories, some good news stories. on tuesday, 3 women were pulled from under the debris and hattie province more than 200 hours. after the quakes hit earlier, 2 brothers were found alive in common marsh. well, the day or the day started with survivors in different places across to a kia here where i am in a donna, you might remember just a couple of days ago, we had a very tense situation. a pile of rubble was behind me, a building had collapsed. a lot of people camped out to try and find out what had
9:08 pm
happened to their friends and loved ones. inside. now that rubble has been cleared away, but it only reveals another layer. another depth of the damage of the scars left on this entire neighborhood. as you can see in that building, one side of that entire building is severely damage. i've been speaking to day with people who live in that building. and you might be surprised to say, they're actually worried that the government came and declared that this building is unfit for human habitation. people are desperate to cling on to the past. they once had, even when it looks as scarred as that people are desperate to cling on to their familiar homes. while talking about familiar homes, the day started with people being lifted out of their familiar homes in common mirage. some good news there. but things developed slightly differently as time
9:09 pm
went on us, stephanie decker now explains 2 young men were pulled out of the rubble on tuesday, but those stories of joy are becoming less and less. it is overwhelmingly the dead that are emerging from their homes while we're standing. these are apartment blocks that they have been cleared, but this is as one of our colleagues described a mass graveyard. the city has become a mass graveyard. it is like this across huge areas of the city and the buildings that still stand are broken, they are structurally unsafe, their residence will never be able to go back home. so looking ahead, you have the challenge also of how to how's, where to how's, over hundreds of thousands of people. one of the challenges here, it's not just one city that's been effected by this earthquake. it stretches across major areas of the se, certainly in this city. hit by the 2nd earthquake,
9:10 pm
it's epicenter very close to where we are at the people are devastated. i have many of them still can't believe that this is happened when you ask them what you need. many will tell you we need our relatives back. i need my daughter back, i need my husband back. but life goes on now. many of them are having to live intented cities. this is a temporary measure. and if that's not just here, that's in cost, the entire southeast of turkey. but certainly the stories of heartbreak and devastation in their hundreds of thousands. stephanie decker al jazeera, carmen mulash, south eastern turkey. all the de also started with some good news in another city, audio man with rescues there. but i saw correspond, russell, sorry, explains what they're coming out to. and what awaits people camped out. there might be a different story. this place was the biggest stadium in the city or for argument,
9:11 pm
and now it's turned into a pants city or 5000 people currently are living here. and this is not the only town city in the city of idea. man, there are tons of such makeshift camps that are spreading across the city. so the displacement here is becoming a humanitarian issue. and authorities are trying to deal with this crisis. i've talked to the mayor of the city, actually monkish, an ever asked him about the displacement about sanitation and the infrastructure problems and the challenges that they are facing. financial under his computer, the fairies, fair degree or for infrastructure issues, of course, including water networks, class network, and electric network. of course, fortunately we have in made some improves in our water, water resources and water supply may be 4 to 550 percent off the cities. now that india means water, cancer are set up, but in an hour
9:12 pm
a lot of people are still out. this is because because of a large number of it, the building still distracted and ruined. so we are working round the clock. a lot of people are homeless, shelter that are a large number of people who want to go out of the city. they are trying to arrange data transferred to other cities around the country. if you me, or the amman was one of the hardest. he had cities in south turkey by earthquake, a, 1175 buildings have collapsed here. and as a result, more than a 1000 people have died, the mere told me that they are afraid that this number could go up to 15000. indeed, wherever you turn in the city, you will see the collapse. buildings are blocks after blocks are leveled dawn and the did the impact off the earthquake is everywhere and also the south of normality among people of this city is completely lost. russell said that all jazeera are the
9:13 pm
among salt m, trickier challenges for people around turkey, hats, high province as well. so the lot of damage we can go over to our correspondence, then attach of a diamond. natasha. take us through what you've been hearing from people, especially in the tent cities. a short time ago, a 65 year old man and a young girl or rescued from the rubble here in on takia. there is hope that crews can rescue more of their family members. they spent 208 hours trapped behind me. search and rescue crews have been working to try to retrieve the bodies of 15 people in what used to be an 8 story apartment building block after block here and on talk. yet, there are scenes of this of utter devastation, no services. that's why people are being asked to evacuate. they're
9:14 pm
leaving the bodies of loved ones in freshly dug grapes, terrified about what's happened to those still missing in the ruins of whole. these people's roots and on takia are deep like those that, that you nar, trees, inter kia, but the earthquake ripped them apart. it's brenda disclosure, mac. i bit him, i lost my sister. it's an incredible pain. you lose your house, you have nothing left. we've been living in a 10 psychologically when a chair moves we get a frame and then the yemen. air family is waiting for a ride to a city in the west. they'd never stepped foot in the turkish military set up this makeshift bus station along the side of a major road to help take people out. not far away, others have settled uncomfortably into many 10 cities, guarded by soldiers. there was
9:15 pm
a 3 month state of emergency. we weren't allowed inside or told turks and syrian refugees lived separately, but sure, a common misery of no access to water or bathrooms and no electricity. this man says he escaped the war in syria with his family, and they've now been displaced for the 11th time. and emma followed the never to look over that we don't have any demand in this life. we only ask god for deaf or we ask the will to help us take us back home to live in our land safety. the government says is provided shelter to 1200000 people. there is no exact figure of how many remain homeless in the 10 provinces declared disaster areas. the president of the turkish red crescent says 2 and a half to 3000000 people will require support in the coming months. turkey is entire stock of tents has been depleted. now there is concern about possible public
9:16 pm
health crises, including the spread of the flu. cholera, respiratory elements, and other infectious diseases. waters castiano hygiene situation, the stroke but so we need renewed water sanitation on hodge and capacity. astronomy possible, a communicable diseases heavily into conditions how many threats actually the public health threats. we will face. the turkish red crescent says it's also working to provide mental health support to the millions who will need it. as ease, earthquake, survivors leave a decimated city to begin life anew. they can't escape the burden of tragedy. natasha name l. jazeera and tack. yet turkey are a burden of tragedy that swapped her raj, october 2 on the turkish prison has been saying, and he's been saying, any country faced with the sort of situation that took care has been faced with
9:17 pm
would face the same issues and challenges to we can take that line now to our correspondence in anchor soon. ca, so all of her sit. how's that going down with people? of course some of whom have been critical of the government's response definite. the saw me especially because the government or was late in response and in reaching out to some cities or because of the weather conditions or the roads or the infrastructure, the air damaged infrastructure. they have been hard, harshly criticized, but they, they acknowledges and prisons. ardon mentioned last week that ad there might have been some mistakes and the officials we have been speaking to have been telling us the same thing. but after reaching on the ground, we have mobilize all our resources. all state sources are. he said, he repeated that again. and as he mentioned that the impact of this disaster of
9:18 pm
this damage air was much bigger than its real scale. he mentioned the 4th line was 500 kilometers, but the sensible distraction was 10 or 1000 kilometers. and just because the 4th line, a triggered was close to the surface, it increased the impact of the damage. he tried to explain air, the scale of the damage through scientific data he gathered from his team's end or from the data. a disaster management agency gathered from a scientific committed that they have established early last week. he tried to convince a people that he will be doing his best to accommodate pupil and add to rehabilitate the earthquake his areas. and he mentioned that in one week the risk assessment of the damage buildings will be a will be completed and after that they will be destroy. they will be destroying the collapse buildings and, and at the end of this month, then beginning of march,
9:19 pm
they would start building a $30000.00 housings, a for the people. ah, he said, my people, i asked for my people to the patient for one year with me so that i can rehabilitate and reconstruct because as her his statement it a half an hour ago. and they will also need some scientific information from the experts. maybe they will need to move some of the at this rec center is or cities. sanchez, it's not only enough to rebuild the a collapsed buildings, but maybe they, they will need to change it urban, urban planning structure of those cities. apparently some of those cities were right on the fault lines. we have seen the highways. we have seen the roads creek out because of the fall line, air passing gander. we have seen the pictures are drawn pictures of the fields like everyone. so this is a huge work he just asked for patients and he was trying to convince her the citizens not only the earthquake survivors but all country ibarra, that he will,
9:20 pm
he will, he and his team, the ministers, every one, all rescued teams, including volunteers, are doing their best and he thanked the rescue teams, the miners fire extinguishers health workers who are involved in this rescue operation. he also mentioned that 404 to 2. there were leaders contacted him for condolences and m many and many politicians came to turkey. and he underlined are the friendly approach and support that the he received from katara, amir she than me. and he mentioned that $10000.00 containers would be coming from katara and to turkey or via ships to accommodate the earthquake survivors. then the 1st ship is on the way it will take nearly 7 hours to reach the ports of her southern to kia, he said and throw escandone in and add the nearby ports. those containers will be brought to the earthquake survivors. sammy,
9:21 pm
thanks. i've sent him across all their life from ankara while the un secretary general. antonia good turnage has also been speaking. he's calling for hundreds of millions of dollars in aid for the survivors of the earthquake in syria. united nations is launching a city end of $97000000.00 us dollars. meditating that bill for the people of earthquake ravaged celia and these will cover a period of city months. we are in the final stages of a similar appeal for to kia in the me this after most of the earthquakes, united nations rapidly provided $50000000.00 us dollars. so the central emergency response funds, but the needs body mass. we can go to our correspondent kristin salumi. now kristin, want more, is the un secretary general now calling for office?
9:22 pm
of course days of criticism from earthquakes alive is in syria. well, the united nation says it is now able to scale up its response into syria on the north western part of which has been devastated by this earthquake, the $400000000.00, nearly $400000000.00 that the u. n. is asking for will provide for some basic needs . and the un says that already more trucks are going into northwestern syria to deliver that aid more than a 60 have crossed at the pre existing border crossing point. and already today, 11 have crossed through. bob also law, the one of the new crossings that the syrian government has allowed to take place. the un points out that 8800000 people are believed to be impacted in syria as
9:23 pm
a result of the earthquake. this was an area that was already struggling to meet the needs of where the un was struggling to meet the needs of the people because of years of conflict with needs at their highest point since the civil war began 12 years ago. now there's these additional factors affecting people, not only the 8800000 affected, but some 7400 structures are believed to have been destroyed. so it did take a full week for the syrian government to reverse its course and say that it would allow more cross border aid to get into the country. in that time, some on the security council, including the united states, wanted to pass a resolution bypassing the syrian government and allowing for more aid to get through that way. the security council in the end, did not accomplish that, but the united states ambassador said earlier today that she will be watching to
9:24 pm
make sure that the aid now gets through if the aid is flowing in its flowing unfettered and n g o in the un are able to get in without being blocked and the people in need are getting the assistance they need. that's good. but we have to watch to see that that happens. it took 7 days to get this decision to allow the boarders to be open . that decision should have been made on day one. so in addition to basic needs like food, shelter on medical supplies that are needed by the syrians, the u. n. is going to provide paychecks for people to help with debris clean up and small construction projects. but the united nations points out that it does not have any heavy equipment or search and rescue teams, and that it is dependent on other international donors for those needs to be met. sammy, all right,
9:25 pm
thanks so much. kristin salumi there. i want to give you an idea of what's been happening all day here and all night, and you can see a little bit, i'm going to move out the way and asked you out if he can no zoom in a little bit. we have seen people, neighbors, relatives come to this area where a building one stood and has collapsed all day. people have been wandering over and these guys came over just during our life. john said hey, can we come to this spot? and we said shaw of course, we've seen people get out of cars, we've seen women come here and just sit down on the ground and cry. and i think that is quite telling of the emotions and the challenge that remains for people here. people i've been speaking to say, well this is our home people who've been told by the government that they should leave some of these buildings are reluctant to do so because this is their pass.
9:26 pm
this is their life. this is all they've ever known. then they want to bring that past back to them. it goes to show you can take people, you can take victims away from the trauma zone or taking the trauma away from the victims. that is going to be a much harder and longer challenge doreen back to you very hard. indeed, sammy, thank you so much for that reporting from donna in network here. you're with the news hour on al jazeera. here's what's coming up after the break. a crackdown on child marriage is in india. and why experts say social change is the way to protect millions of girls and a trip to disneyland for the super bowl and b. p. patrick my home. that's coming up in sports. ah.
9:27 pm
most of those come for iran, possibly in the capital to run and this more forming in the black seas, cold wind coming across it, nothing in the higher ground in north and central turkey. there will be some more snow we might get a little bit further. sasa, generally speaking, the problem remains overnight of low temperatures in the area under search conditions where we're typically in most places minus 2 to minus 7 up in the band as it's down to minus 20 still. but that's been consistent for the last week or so . now a leper shows a bit of a trend here by day at least a slight warming even by night. we might come out of football time we get to saturday, but it's only on the syrian to the turkey side appears to stay quite cold. now back to wednesday, and here's the streak of mostly rain, but some snow in around the rain is in. suddenly rock may be cute and then you've got quite a wind building up there. it looks like the house full cost, the high temperature is going to be knocked back quite significantly as a shamal comes in, this is dusty. normally with down to 23 or 24,
9:28 pm
it will feel lower than that. during 1st day. there's been a bit of a problem with rain in south africa and now the state of emergency because of the flooding of last week. and we've got more rain to come. significant rain in the sea to many provinces of south africa. ah, the african stories from african perspective, short documentary, from african filmmakers from ivory coast, just to last year from chauffeur to quad window buffer, from a former student listing for home and south africa. king if i, if i would change. and it shows me that i am actually tracking and fire with africa direct on al jazeera. we town the untold story. ah,
9:29 pm
we speak when others don't. ah, we cover all sides. no matter where it takes us. a fan sir guy from my i am power in pasha. we tell your story. we are your voice, your news, your net al jazeera lou ah, ah. hello again. the top stories on the al jazeera news, our. the secretary general of the united nations is appeal for hundreds of millions of dollars to supply humanitarian assistance to syria. meanwhile, aid is now flowing across to new border crossings. the assad government in syria
9:30 pm
has opened to un supply trucks. more than 41000 people have died in syria and turkey yet. but in spite of the odds, there are still stories of survival. these are pictures of a woman being rescued in turkey's hearty province. after spending more than 200 hours under the rubble, at least 9 survivors have been rescued on tuesday. so in the aftermath of the earthquakes, there is an increased risk of infectious diseases spreading. dr. ma'am had che hahn an infectious diseases professor kias hatchet. her pe university explains the concerns taped women durgin children, and then it's from the 4th day of the earthquake. and we can see the infectious diseases. but some of these diseases have an incubation period which could be delayed by up to one to 3 months. in general, infectious diseases, but concrete risks are mainly respiratory diseases because people who are being rescued from the rebels or the relatives rescue teams. medical personnel are
9:31 pm
staying and crowded tents in sport holes and enclosed areas and the illnesses which were popular before the earthquake, lucozade flu and other types of diseases like meningitis and chicken pox are dead. bodies are not important sources of infections, as long as they don't carry any sickness during that time. so the dead because of trauma, not because of the infections. that's why they're not creating any silly sickness danger. but these bodies should be put in body bags and buried. otherwise, rodents will appear in those areas. as switch pipes will break down and strength, dogs can take them out when they are hungry. the most important as human waste mobile toilet solve the problem, but they are not everywhere. mobile toilets are the most important right now. there is a shortage of this. people need them. secondly, the earthquake areas are cold. and of course, people can't have showered, but there should be water heaters in certain areas. there should be enough gloves for people who work there as well as sanitizers and mosques are those now in china
9:32 pm

9:34 pm
you al, jazeera, beijing, nato defense ministers of modern brussels to discuss boosting support for ukraine. the alliance of sector in general has promised more ammunition for cave. we see no sign starts to present it in and is preparing for peace. ah, what receives the opposite sir? he is preparing for more a war for new offensive son and new attacks. so it makes it just even more important data and they draw us on partners her pride more supporter to ukraine stuff. arson has more from brussels, a week before the anniversary of 3rd, this invasion of, for russia and ukraine for 54 nations represented here in brussels. today have much more military 8, but not quite the 8 that ukraine was hoping for. we know that president lansky has specifically asked for fighter jets f sixteens also directly to the netherlands,
9:35 pm
who owns the sir fight chads. but the secretary of defense or austin has said that there is no announcement on these f sixteens yet, what is happening is that the countries who have them only want to support ukraine with these jets if the whole block of need to is supporting dis, decision and this is a very sensitive decision is a lot of concern. it's not only complex, but it also, there are concerns about a possible escalation. what are the countries are ascending though? is more air defense? france and italy half an hour stepped up or went air defense system sending to ukraine. a lot of more ammunition is being sent and also norway has now announced that they will send a will give 7500000000 euros for military 8. moldova closed, that's aerospace for what it called safety reasons. before reopening later and this comes
9:36 pm
a day after its president accused moscow applauding to topple her government on monday maya sand, who said she'd confirmed an allegation made by the ukrainian president villa. there was a lensky, that his country's intelligence services had discovered a plan by russia to bring down moldova, pro you government. sand, who said russia is aiming to use more over in the war against ukraine. the kremlin has rejected the claims a summer been javits has more from moscow. the russian foreign ministry of denying the statements made earlier by the although the president that russia is planning to carry out an operation to be stabilized over a direction. foreign ministry spokesman says that this is a classical example of a how western powers come up with information which cannot be verified and then use it to further their own illegal actions. foreign minister is from the united states, germany, france, italy, and the u. k. have issued a joint statement condemning israel's decision to formalize 9 illegal settlements.
9:37 pm
they say they strongly oppose israel's unilateral actions, warning. they will worse intentions with the palestinians. israel security cabinets said this was in response to a series of attacks and occupied east jerusalem. so the illegal settlements and occupied palestinian territories have been one of the most contentious issues in the conflict between 19672020 2. israel built more than $290.00, illegal settlements, and they occupied west bank and their jurisdiction goes far beyond the homes. an estimated 700000 settlers live in the occupied west bank. israel has also built several enclave in palestinian neighborhoods and occupied east jerusalem home to more than $200.00. 20000 is really settlers. the settlements violate international law and large numbers of israelis living and occupied territories. complicate efforts to establish a palestinian state, speak to the army who, who's
9:38 pm
a senior fellow at the harvard kennedy. so he's joining us from boston. welcome back to elgin 0. so in response to that statement that was put out by the foreign ministers of european countries. b is really national security minister said this allow me to quote, i say to the americans, to the european stop being worried. this is our mission or outlook 9. outposts is nice, but it's not enough. we want much more. well the, the europeans and the americans do next. well, you got 2 things going on here. you got the western powers really coming to the crunch of the question that they've never addressed for the last 3040 years, which is, are they serious about implementing international law equally for palestinians and israelis or they just issue statements when the israel is do something that's illegal, a criminal, but they take strong actually the palestinians do something. the other one is for these really, really implementing this policy of, of taking them from the power of settling it. it's colonizing it with their own
9:39 pm
people, mostly coming from brooklyn and poland places. and they and russia, and they have done this for some 2047. they've been taken post on the last last. so these are historical trends that are really at a moment of reckoning. now we'll have to see if we're talking about the law and then we'll talk to get a better action response from the west. west has acted on you. so what do, what difference to these statements make that are put out by the europeans and also we did hear from the us state department saying that it's quote, deeply troubled by the announcement and this unders minds, the prospects of a 2 state solution. i mean to the israelis even care about these statements, i don't think they really care. they've been ignoring the state much. in fact, they've been spending in the face of the americans often literally won an american president or secretary of state visits, israel's, and they, they authorize a new settlement. this has been their pattern over the last 2030 years. they don't
9:40 pm
really care because they're never subjected to real sanctions or accountability and we don't know what's going to happen. i wouldn't be surprised that the americans of your pins realized that this is going to create a catastrophe of a keeps going on. that they might say, well, you know, maybe we should like the international court of justice or the international criminal court investigate this and help us see what's to be done. signals like that might cause the israel is to react. but up until now, the signals have not been made by the west to hope comfortable. any wrong door in the region, especially in israel. and these ram is never suffered penny pressure, therefore they keep doing what they're doing is speaking of international law. i wonder if you can just explain this because the israelis are saying that they're going to formalize or legalize the settlements. but how can the settlements actually be legalized when settlements are illegal under international law? well, that's the whole point. these really upset for many years, some 67 come up with this very magical legal argument that this land,
