why did nick with alita? ah, we need people to know how to nurse mary die. and why did she die? and why has a family be left to grief? but these families still haven't moved on. i probably never will. these families will never see their normal again. mm. ah. ah,

desperate for help. earthquake victims and water on sirius said they've been forgotten. we report from one of the worst areas that had been displaced several times and now they are displeased again. the united nations launches a 1000000000 dollar appeal to help to key a combat is worst natural disaster. ah, and ominous brought him. this is al. does he alive from dough also coming up the head of russia state back while the group blames what he calls most goes for the tribute block receive a slow gains in the east of the east of ukraine. the united states strongly opposes these unilateral measures, provided the administration condemns israel's decision to expand a legal set of my settlements and the occupied west bag. ah,

now we'll begin and takia and sylvia were rescue efforts winding up off to last week's devastating earthquake. the un has appealed to $1000000000.00 to cover immediate humanitarian needs and takia. that's on top of the $400000000.00 appeal for quake effective regions in syria. the relief effort there has been delayed by the lost in the legacy of civil war opposition held is in serious northwest have only seen a trickle of age delivered so far. more than 42000 people are now known to have died across both countries. we have a team of correspondence covering the disaster and took here. stephanie decker is in chat mark and cassie anti province. natasha. her name is in the ancient city of antique here, bernard smith, as in kite among the dash, one of the epi centers of the earthquakes, i said, beg, is an ivy, a man. and across the border and syria wrestles said that as engine barris. this

people are the residence of generous in northwest syria. they have been hit hard by the earthquake, and now they're here and trying to get the aid. they said that aid is too little and too late. however, it's still very much precious for them because any drop off the aid can help them to survive this winter. you can see that there are thousands and thousands of people that they have lost their houses or relative there did ones. now they are here waiting for aid for food, for warm clothes, for heaters, and for the medicines. so it has been days that they were waiting for these aid. there sat there angry, and they say the field at the international community has forgotten them. they said they was,

is not hurt. many of the relatives have stayed on the robles for these and days. didn't have more than more than equipments to, to pull them out. very rudimentary equipments, even sometimes with the bad hands they needed to, they had to get their beloved ones out of the rebels here. so notice celia has been bombed heavily by the regime over the course of a decade. they already lost a lot. they had been displaced several times and now they are displaced again. so just a little ago, i was talking to a young man who has lost his family. he said that when the earthquake hit him hit his house. he had to hold his son 6 years old son next to him for 24 hours. and that boy, his son, by while the blood was coming out of his his mouth and the father had to witness

that and just 2 meters away. his and his other son who was 8 years old, he has called several times death. i am dying help. and he said that it was quite a painful moment for him that he couldn't help his daughter as well, has died. and now his father, his, his, his wife, is just disabled. another man told me and his historian, he has lost his family as well. he said that when he arrived to the hospital, he was in comma. and when you wake up, we, when he woke up, he asked the doctor about his wife, the doctor said, she's dead. he has about his daughter, the doctor says she is also dead. and he asked about his son, who dr. saw told him, he's also dead. so these are the shared stories here that are, that are really painful and the tragedy is still unfolding here and the kids many of them, they still do not know how much they have lost. many of them are now without the

parents. so that's why, particularly now the international aid is significantly important because it's winter and particularly during to tide, the deny time it's freezing cold, and every single drop of the 8 can help them to survive. and so his president, bashar al assad says the road ahead is difficult. one lesson was you or what will face in the upcoming months and years in terms of social challenges. land economic challenges is no less important than what we faced in these 1st few days. while older starting to win survivors in serving as example how areas. but his name criticism or the how long it's taken to negotiate the opening of border crossings from tech here. cool facilities that are already fragile from the years of war. a close to collapse saying how the report here in northwest celia medical south have little choice but to use damaged incubators. last week's earthquakes and

southern turkey or hit the sweet and hard medical facilities. and this opposition controlled enclave were already weak. do 2 years of war and the lack of funds there now close to collapse. not allow them. we have always face short addition, but this is not new. but now many incubators, the damage as well as other equipment that we need to treat the children. many children were affected by the powerful earthquakes where russia was among those who survived, but he's still in shock. i was asleep when it happened for lapse. my brother neither clap under the library for 3 days before they brought us to hospital. international agency say they are facing a catastrophic situation in the north, where limited access to aid has complicated efforts to handle the aftermath of the disaster. it's a different situation and government controlled areas where plain loads of supplies are being delivered to airports. the world health organization says the impact is

significant there, but services are available and people are able to access them. unlike in the northwest where it says people have been through hell so much now, william during the 1st 2 days in hospital, i didn't receive any treatment. if there were no doctors available volunteers or students were trying to help us aid has long been politicized. in a country divided by front lines, the international community is promising scaled up response after the syrian government approve the opening of a cor doors 4000000 people in the north relied on aid before the latest disaster. and the reality is only getting worse, shelter and food are needed on an unprecedented scale. when can i look at our situation? it is cold, our children no longer go to school. we lost our home. there are no toys here. the u. n. is appealing for emergency funding and has long been working with a shortage of funds and with many describe a forgotten conflict. the earthquakes destroyed already crumbling infrastructure.

you know only when we moved to italy, 3 years ago, we knew the building was not structurally sound. what we had no choice. now engineers told us that we can return to our home. a lot of them now. we are homeless. the challenge now is to care for the living, who've already endured 12 years of war, then a footer, l. shakita, united nations as launched a 1000000000 dollar appeal to help more than 5000000 people and took here funding from the p on the resources will allow aid organization to swiftly wrap up their operations to support government lead response efforts in areas including food security protection education, water, and shelter. mon griffiths, the under secretary, jennifer humanitarian affairs who was in the country last week said the people of turkey, i have experience, unspeakable heartache. and we must stand with them in their darkest hour and ensure they receive the support they need. the disaster has effected an area almost the

size of britain. millions of people have been displaced, thousands and are living in camps completely dependent on aid. as a big visitor can from the southern turkish city of the a man. i a moment of happiness and play amid the destruction they've written. these children now live in the top of the yemen in southeast and to tear and up being helped by volunteers. we came here to provide psychological 1st day to the children and to help them return to the normality of life. our aim is to make the children laugh because we say if one child laughs, the whole world law more than 5000 people live here, providing food, water, and shelter for them has been a combined effort. madman is a businessman who came to help remember, this is a part of our country. we know they need both physical and financial help. we came

from 1200 kilometers away. we've been here for 8 days. we live like them. we like them. we sleep in our cars and tents among the tents that make up this camp. they burn whatever they can to keep warm in the freezing temperatures and they're grateful for the help they've received. then each week on my very big areas affected a lot is needed and we need every once a bought from across the country. people are helping us. children are breaking their piggy banks and giving us money. some have a little money, but they buy medicine and send it to us. he shows us his tent. some have heating, some don't. he says some have mattresses, some don't across the city. another group of volunteers has opened a pharmacy. they travel from istanbul more than 1200 kilometers away. chil shouldn't reside dell. i took a annual leave to come here. we bought some medicine ourselves. some were donated to us that this disaster has shown how people of this country are not only united

in their grief, but also the determination to help each other rescue operations and are shifting to cleaning up the city. and the tension has turned to those init. it's a challenge that will remain for the foreseeable future, but people across the country a help in the effort. i said big i jazeera or the yeoman. so then that appear. while some search cruise continue to dig through the ruins, we are still hearing miraculous stories of survival in kind of mind mirage. a 17 year old girl was told to live from beneath the rabble. she'd been trapped for 10 days, while several people were found alive and took here on wednesday. the number of rescues has decreased significantly. our health workers say many earthquake victims are now suffering from post traumatic stress disorder. and panic attacks are correspondent natasha g. a name has been speaking to psychologists and an takia. we

follow to clinical psychologist around today there with the turkish red crescent. and they're trying to help people begin to make sense of this collective trauma that is going to be felt across southern turkey. the clinical psychologist say during a disaster like this, their 1st priority is to help restore a sense of safety. make sure that people have shelter. there is still a critical shortage of shelter in southern tortilla. sometimes it's giving people a blanket or a hot cup of coffee and then it's settling in and just listening. we watch the clinical psychologists offer hugs pats on the backs. they often play with children . as for children were told they're being overlooked, and that's not uncommon in a situation like this that they've experienced, seen and heard things that no child should have to experience. and the clinical psychologist says, if they don't get the mental health services they need, that could emerge as a bigger problem as they grow

a you should be working with the colleagues from here, from the field in you should be, you know, shoot, need your chair emotions with them, you know, you both share your emotions and bullets work together. so it means basically the so sites of a work and the will very now away from the towns and cities. small villages and rule parts of tech here have also been flattened. stephanie decor traveled to the village of chalk mark in the province of kazi, on 10 live residence, determined to rebuild as soon as possible. the destruction to the small village of checkmark is absolute. the earthquake hasn't spared a single home here. the chief of the village takes us to what's left of his house. he says he can't believe he made it out alive, battery up, up willows, amber. my wife and i were to sleep. we don't know what happened to us. how we woke up when i tried to go outside. i got injured on my head. that was enough. we were

terrified the earthquake threw me. it was very hard and it made me lose my mind. i'm only incredibly, no one lost their lives here. but just as large parts of so many towns and cities, this village too will need to be completely, we built in another village. further up the mountain, even the dead have been disturbed. the grave shifted as the earth cracked. if you look at the ground in the cemetery, you can see where the earthquake has disturbed all the bricks. and then over here, it has literally pushed a grave out of the ground and then leaving absolutely no doubt as to the power of mother nature. the violence was with which it split the earth. yes. used to be 5 meters deep, but emergency services have filled it back and checkmark, this village or tells us they thought it was the last day of the world. kedusha mar

them. oh yosh. on that i never felt an earthquake like this before. nobody else. i asked either, 1st there was a terrifying sound. we felt a huge pressure. the land kept moving. i was convinced no one was alive any more. it felt never ending. it was so strong. they tell us, help came on the 2nd day. now they sleep intense, provided by turkey's disaster agency set up inside the village. no one intends to leave here. as we finish filming a few villages are removing what they can from their broken homes, before they will be demolished. they are determined to rebuild. they tell us as soon as possible, stephanie decker, al jazeera chuck mac village in south eastern to kia to the head on the bulletin outrage and controversy. why the, as wiley military has uprooted more than a $1000.00 trades from occupied palestinian man he was president joe biden addresses the chinese 5 balloon incident,

saying he plans to speak to china's president ah. in a notorious waterside community. what kim's and thugs room, one theater director ventures to stage a play. there call me miss is the add to empower the women? that old man sitting right day sally. i and redefine best status in society. missus. f. nigeria, as women walk on water, witness on al jazeera, russia's war em, ukraine has dominated well, he's for the past 12 months. devastating for those in the line of fire, or directly impacted. it has strengthened global alliances and deepened divisions with far reaching effects on the lives of millions of people weld wide.

in a week heard special coverage al jazeera explores every aspect of the conflict, the human, the political, and the economic, and the possibilities of resolution. ukraine war one here on, on, out there, lou. lou watching on his ear would be it is a problem. and a reminder of our top stories, the seller that you one has appealed to $1000000000.00 to cover immediate humanitarian needs and took care of following last week's earthquakes. they also

need $400000000.00 for quake affected regions in syria. where the relief effort is being severely disrupted by more than a decade old civil war. more than 42000 people are now known to have died. 2 countries. authorities haven't get announced the number of missing people. there are still some incredible stories of survival and caught him on the dash. a 17 year old girl has been rescued after 10 days under the rubble or buddhist smith is income on. but osh where people are blaming lacks construction norms for exacerbating the disaster. those behind the rubble behind me is the remains of apartment blocks that just crumbled within an architect tells us 10 to 15 seconds of the quake started meeting those in the people inside had no chance a toll, but across the street. amidst the rubble, there are other apartment buildings like that. one of the behind me that as you can see, still standing now is going to have to be pulled down eventually. but the point is

it stayed up long enough that the people inside it were able to escape and nobody was killed by the differences. the buildings that collapse were built before 999. and that one and others like it were built after 999. when there was another major quaking turkey, which prompted the introduction of new rules and regulations, strengthening the building was compounded the damage on the death and destruction is that even buildings built after $999.00. many of them were granted ominous days . if they failed to come up to scratch, this was often done before elections. and instead of having to build a building, building the buildings up to standard. people paid a fine and that was paid to the ministry of environment instead of having to build, bring that buildings up to standard architects. we've been speaking to here. they said what they wanted to do that building behind me is the architects union office . it's low rise and what they wanted to do, they told the council about 3 years before this,

they want to knock down. they said all the pre $999.00 buildings should be destroyed and rebuilt to new, a low rise standards. when the building is low, arise is more integrated with the ground. and then we're totally more able to withstand the shaking and the oscillation of the quake causes. but these buildings weren't evacuated, it means moving thousands and thousands of people, or hundreds of buildings and hundreds of businesses. so the buildings were left as they were. and the collapse, as i say, very, very quickly, chamber of architect is angry and frustrated because they say that this death and destruction was easily avoided. ah, the head of the russian state bag, backed wildly mercenary group, was blaming what he calls moscow's monstrous bureaucracy for slow military gains. if any progress was ins as it could take months to capture the eastern town of buck

more, which has seen intense fighting and recent weeks, it's capture would be a major symbolic one for russia. those town halls, little strategic value. sammy romani is an associate fellow at the royal united services institute and he says it's not the 1st time that pickles and has criticized rushes military leadership slightly. just very surprising that promotion with lash out at the military bureaucracy in this manner. he's been launching a shadow conflict against the defense minister survey shy, give a date back to the war in syria dispatch 2016 as really escalated over the past year with him going public as the owner of the water grip and rushes military. having stepped back after sent back. so i think that this is totally aligned with his public persona. over the course, the past few years, the water grip assembled an army of 50000 troops, 40000 prisoners, and 10000 mercenaries. and all they had to show for its been cited, heavy casualties is the takeover of soda and back boot. obviously, was that increasingly important for the russian campaign because it gave them

a critical victory. danielle, as well as access to railways and logistics. and even though pre goshen has tried to frame and reframe brushes, goals as not necessarily being to capturing the city, but creating a stalemate that blad ukrainian forces, i result from the death of ukrainian territorial defense forces are a lead core. that kid, that narrative is not really that convincing because russia wants victories and dynamic, and promotions is not delivering them as losing heavy casualties in the process. why u. s. presidential biden's has 3 on identified ot jack shot down by fine to jets earlier this month. did not appear to have been juice for spying. anne would likely connected to the 9 purposes. first, we will establish a better inventory of on man airborne objects in space above the united states, aerospace, and make sure that inventory is accessible and up to day. second, we'll implement further measures to improve our capacity to detect on man object to

objects in our airspace. 3rd, will update the rules and regulations for launching and maintaining unmanned objects in the skies above the united states for merck and forth. our, my secretary state will lead an effort to help establish a global global common global norms in this largely on regular spanish. our white house correspondent, kimberly hallett has law under pressure from law makers. you as president joe biden spoke for the 1st time about those incidents involving the unidentified aerial objects. not only the chinese spy balloon, the military downed off the coast of the carolinas, but also those other 3 objects that were downed over alaska, canada, as well as lake huron. the president saying there's no evidence of a sudden increase in those objects. still, viewers, president laying our parameters or rules to deal with these objects in the future.

in other words, so that they can be identified and determined whether or not they should be shot down or if they should be allowed to float across the united states. and whether or not the threats to civilian or military aircraft are indeed a valid or whether or not they are benign. now, in the case of these most recent 3 and identified aerial objects, the president says they are benign. however, when it comes to the chinese spy balloon, there is still some debris that is being retrieved and in the case of all of the objects, in some cases, weather is hampering those efforts. now, when it comes to the chinese spy balloon incident, the u. s. president says he will be speaking to china's president, she in his words, to get to the bottom of this. what he does say though, is that the u. s. will continue to engage with china. what the united states wants . he says is competition, not conflict. that's why us diplomats will continue conversations with china in

order to further that relationship that the u. s. has condemned israel's decision to expand illegal settlement activity in the occupied westbank. we are deeply dismayed by israelis announcement that they will advance thousands of new settlements and retroactively legalized 9 outposts in the west bank that were that were until now illegal under is really law. the united states strongly opposes these unilateral measures which, which exacerbates tension, harm trust between the parties and undermine the geographic viability of the 2 states which solution. during this, his recent trip to israel secretary blinking was clear that all parties should refrain from actions that heightened tensions and take us further away from peace. now israeli troops have cleared olive trees planted by israeli settlers on palestinian land. the trees had been there for 15 years, saw higher reports from shiloh,

and the occupied west bank. freshly dug out soil and more than a 1000 olive trees were removed by the israeli forces here on occupied palestinian land in the west bank under israeli high court ruling. because all of the olive trees that were planted here were planted by israeli settlers illegally. now this olive grove here has caused absolute outrage, the removal of these trees amongst the right wing politicians within the israeli coalition government. but this situation here highlights simmering tensions within the government that have been bubbling underneath the surface for the last few weeks. you have the national security minister, it's something i've been given who is accused the defense minister of bringing in border police here to remove these trees. something he says comes on the have your restriction. so the conversation here now is about who controls what, especially when it come to occupied westbank. you also have the finance minister,

smart church that has also told the finance minister he can quit his job because it's up to him to decide what happened within the west. bank in terms of the expansion of illegal settlements. we're seeing a coalition government here that is rapidly fast tracking measures to make these illegal settlements bigger and as fast as they possibly can. all of this just days before judicial reform plans are being voted on on monday reforms that many israeli said is a threat to democracy. it would potentially give the government the upper hand over the supreme court. now that vote is going to happen on monday and will likely to see thousands more israelis protesting against it. and that's it for this bulletin and 5 stories coming up next. ah
