12:03 pm
i wish all of this was gone, so i didn't have to care about it from one of the shops they salvage what they can normally we're not looters. we're not looted that our own goods. they say, i have to clarify on this also. we will try to survive. all we have is lost there. let me, let me of it is debbie, also with the state where people will give us in aid will only last a week and then we'll be hungry. we have children, we must survive. and what we built in the last 30 years is gone. we had 3 houses, and now we're in a tent, tub of government mirage. the search continues even at this stage, some klingon to hope. as every one fall silent, rescuers use their equipment to search for any sign of life. the earthquakes took away lives and homes, but some things can't be taken. we lost everything. i took some pages of the koran out when the memories left nothing else left. it's all gone behind. this was my
12:04 pm
shops. all the families had gone. a page of the put on lives in the box in front of a tent. the mutual rivalry of this world diverts you until you visit the graves. the verses say to many this city is now a graveyard. well, i says joining us now live. i said recovery rebuilding 2 words. we're going to be hearing a loss of in the next few months. but the scale of the catastrophe is still really hard to comprehend. absolutely, it's hard to comprehend when you actually walk through cut my mirage. and you realize the extent of the devastation, the buildings that i destroyed, but not only those, the ones that have been damaged, that ones that would have to be modest and rebuilt. no, no matter how much we film, no matter how much drawing footage we show you, it doesn't really capture the extent of the destruction. the vastness of the effects of these 2 earthquakes. and not only that, the people that are left behind
12:05 pm
a homeless, they many living intensities, others have been put up in the temporary accommodation, where it's also the psychological trauma of the, of the, the craig, there's thousands of off the shops last night. there's one about 5.3 on the richter scale and that makes people real live. that trauma creates the fear, it returns that fear those bad memories. and when those people are living amongst the rubble amongst the destroyed buildings, it doesn't really go away. and we've had one expert this morning, the morning thing that they expecting more after shocks up to 7 on the richter scale. and to just to put that into context, to, to earthquakes over 7.5 on the richter scale. so that is very, very scary for people that still remain here. but yes, rebuilding is going to be a huge task. most of the city is going to have to be rebuilt, but also the,
12:06 pm
the tract is taking away the truck that we've been rebels. the trucks are removing rubble and there's a lot of dust and the air with us best us. that's also a risk for the people that remain. so yes, it's a massive test that people face, but also providing for those that are left behind is a huge task. not only for the government, but for the agencies working in the area. i beg and kind of my mother, as i said, thank you. on any 14000000 people who took a se have been affected by the devastation. many families have no idea about where to go, or what to do. next was ashok on him, followed a team of clinical psychologists offering support in the city of and taco. these survived that no one here has been spared the anguish. their stories are excruciating to hear, let alone live through. on them a clay with them, i lost my mother and brother in law. i had to carry his body from the 8th floor and
12:07 pm
my mother was dropped on the 1st floor. we took their bodies out with our bare hands because the rescue teams could not reach us the 1st day. it was boarding rain, god turn this place into a helm that day. we follow 2 clinical psychologists with a turkish red crescent into this camp for displaced people. the listen, hold, hands with offer pads on the back and played games with chilled rented. sometimes just offering a blanket or a cup of coffee is comfort enough. in that moment. if they don't have deer secure shelters, if they don't feel themselves secure, so it will like solid. fortunately, it will effect them info in a social behavior. i mean, in social way that you, we, you, we could have so many, multiple, a psychological problems like depression, major depression, be tasty. in some, a personality disorders,
12:08 pm
even the psychologist say in the upheaval of the earthquakes aftermath. children are particularly vulnerable to michelle, go visit. i'm get, you know, think of our youngest daughter is going through a difficult time. she was with her grandmother when she died, that she went crazy being outside in the rain alone. and while we try to reach her, we're trying to heal ourselves. god willing, we will. the president of the turkish red crescent says it's ability to provide mental health services to survivors is quote, humble, considering the enormous need required in the coming weeks, months and years. and that's why sustained international aid is essential. people repeatedly say they're feeling hopeless and helpless. but over time, experts say their collective trauma can also lead to a communal healing. natasha named al jazeera and tucker turkey. up
12:09 pm
to northern sir, you know, what united nations team has arrived to find out what aid it can provide in the wake of those devastating earthquakes, the delegations toward the rebel held tone of genders were in tar neighborhoods, have been destroyed. more than 5000000 people have been left homeless and city alone, b u and has been criticized for its slow response and delivering it to sylvia's most affected areas. were here today to pay back and conducted the victim to the earthquake. just now that 100 people died in the 2 houses of the 3 heart rending that we had to pay respect, but also to see what the needs are for the survivors. ah, the secretary of states met senior chinese diplomat. one ye in munich for the 1st
12:10 pm
time since washington accused beijing of sending a spy balloon into its aerospace us fighter jets shot down the balloon over the atlantic gallia this month and to the bank and says he made it clear that the violations of american aerospace must never happen again. wang is calling the response hysterical insisting it was a weather balloon. the blue, of course, there was no apology. but what i can also tell you is this was an opportunity to speak very clearly and very directly about the fact that china sent a surveillance balloon over our territory, violating our sovereignty, violating international law. and i told him quite simply that that was unacceptable . and can never happen again. were of course not the only ones on the receiving end of the surveillance balloons. more than 40 countries have had the balloon fly over them in recent years. and that's been exposed to the world on the market from the center for china and globalization. he says, washington is engaging in double standards. a weather balloon,
12:11 pm
collecting weather information, certainly can have a military use. so i think it's very unclear here, and i think it's also important to point out that certainly the u. s. complaining about this violation of sovereignty does sound a little bit hypocritical. i mean, we go back decades with the u. s. engaging in this kind of a legit conduct all around the world. so i think we really should take this out with a bit of a grain of salt and there also is a narrative battle taking place here. and once upon a time the u. s. certainly could credibly warn china war in any other country around the world. i'll. but i think the geopolitical realities are shifting and how, what a credible this warning is, i think remains to be seen as we see. not only china, but other countries around the world, increasingly able to act with
12:12 pm
a greater degree of autonomy free from usaa coersion. perhaps we could call it or the final day or the meanings. security conference is now underway with us china relations and the ukraine war. continuing to dominate the agenda, our diplomatic editor james base is joining us live from unique james, we're going to start with a meeting between anti blinking and why need the talking as my might have expected was that his son, pretty tough, was equally interesting. of course is the fact that anything happened at all yeah, absolutely. any meeting i think from both sides perspective is good news, but it seems to have been a pretty tense exchange of words and it wasn't a very long meeting. and i don't think it's, it's necessarily done what some had hoped, which is get the relationship back on to a place where the 2 could actually have a more constructive meeting. remember that the time that the spy balloon was shot
12:13 pm
down over north american aerospace secretary, blinking was just about to land in beijing. the 1st meeting involving a secretary of state, going to china for some considerable time. and that meeting, although the usa, they're still looking for a later date for it. it has not been set that new day. so i think a slight bit of progress may be that they met, i think in terms of what's actually being achieved in the meaning security conference. one of the things i think that's important, or we don't know how important yet does come from china. because china is signaling that with regard to the war in ukraine, it's got an idea for some sort of plan moving forward. and china is probably one of the only countries that has significant influence on russia. so i think we're gonna need to see and, and european diplomats are saying, we don't really gather comments on this or say much about it until we see the details. but i think it's important to watch those details on what china apparently
12:14 pm
is going to unveil in the coming days. yeah. jobs that stick with the ukraine more where of course, approaching the one year anniversary of the war you've been speaking to some of the most significant voices at the security conference. what are they saying about the state of the war? well, they say that they fear it's going to be a long war. i think they're all accepting now that president putin is unlikely to back down any time soon as they're seeing the strategy that's being used. he sending more and more troops into eastern new many of those trips have been described by european diplomats as captain cannon fodder. but they see that for now . anyway, he fears that if he doesn't continue the war and it's kind of course that it may effect him and his standing back in moscow, there is talk not very public talk from some european diplomats about negotiations and a time to negotiate. for now,
12:15 pm
they say the time table needs to be set by president landscape. now we know what president landscape saying privately. he's saying yes, i'm happy to talk. once russia withdraws, when he says with drawers, he doesn't just mean from the areas they've taken in the last year. he means from all of ukraine. and that doesn't seem something that the, that the russians are likely to do anytime soon. and president putin is very unlikely i think, to withdraw from crimea. so the message publicly is for as long as it takes part, i think there's a problem with that going, going forward. one of the big problems is not with the europeans. it's with the us because remember we've only got a couple of years until. ready next us election campaign was abroad not particularly popular in the us. certainly many republicans elected to the house of representatives say no. ready blank checks from you. right. and we know that certain republican candidates, we don't know whose comments are going to be for president,
12:16 pm
but we know one of them is president trump. and we know how he sometimes completely changes the u. s. foreign policy position on issues, i think not many will be surprised in the possibility that there was another president trump, but he might change the policy on the ukraine completely. so i think the commitment principle was it takes is as low as it takes until the u. s potentially change his mind or diplomatic james base in munich. james, thank you. on the front lines of the war in ukraine. moscow says its forces are making gains in the khaki region. it claims to have taken control of a village near ukraine's 2nd largest city of hockey. russian forces have been advancing in the area since key reclaimed control of the city in september. russians, ministry of defense says 20 ukrainian soldiers were killed in cost song and about a $180.00 near the frontline of kapinsky and cosmo milan, sky, palestinians in occupied east jerusalem are preparing for the general strike as
