kate of war, we examined the global power games of president bashar al assad. we believe assad simply carrying out iranian orders. what keeps you awake at night? many a reason that could effect any human eyesight master of chaos. on al jazeera, the american people is spoken, but what exactly did they say? is the world looking for a whole new order with less america in it? is the woke agenda on the decline in america. how much his social media companies know about you, and how easy is it to manipulate the quizzical look us politics, the bottom line? ah, a new 6.4 magnitude earthquake shakes, took here and syria, sending people back into the streets. 2 weeks after powerful quakes killed more

than 47000 people. ah, lauren tana this is al jazeera live from london, also coming up? ah, airray siren sound as you, as president joe biden makes an unannounced visit, do ukraine's capital one year later, key stairs, and ukraine's fans and thousands of his railways protest outside parliament as it starts debating the government's plans to weaken the powers of the supreme court. ah, hello, it's 2 weeks since to kia and syria were devastated by 2 massive earthquakes. and

both countries, i've just been hit by another powerful earthquake. the 6.4 magnitude, quake struck near the turkish city of antique yet, and was felt as far away as lebanon. at least 47000 people have died since the earthquakes on february. the 6th 141000 in took here and nearly 6000 in syria and both rebel and regime held areas of the country. when neither country has confirmed the number of people missing. so those death toes are expected to rise. we can cross now to stephanie decker, whose live in, took here. and stephanie, i understand that you were somewhere where you actually felt the quake very much. so here's the bus, everything we were in the hotel here. now donna, i was actually in the shower to be honest, and the entire building started heavily shaking from side to side that we've been experiencing off to talk on

a daily basis in ga xian tab for we've been staying for the last 2 weeks. we actually left 2 days early before our leaving because of it was too much at night and, and all of a sudden here. so i thought it is very difficult to comprehend. it was very much in slow motion. i got out of the shower. i texted the team immediately. i said guys, i do feel that, is it me? i thought at some point maybe it's upstairs. it was so heavy and it continued for probably about 30 seconds. i got dressed, i managed to get my passport, we went, i went downstairs, everyone was running down the stairs. i'm on the 10th floor of the building. people were crying in the lobby. also, people are staying at his hotel. we been obviously affected by the earthquake. people are mentally traumatized when it comes to this. it was such a heavy m. initially. we were talking about an aftershock. it's now been classified as an earthquake. you mentioned there 6.4. i was talking to a friend of mine who saying it was felt in lebanon. we had our produce at anya from the west bank message b. they felt it in my law, one of our colleagues,

alex producers on his way back to is dumble. was it god xian type airport, where everything shocked people started crying. we have another producer who was in hattie airport, which is where that epicenter was. 6.4. he was thrown to the ground, he told natasha one of our colleagues. so it just shows you the power of this one and, and we understand now from the mayor of what i saying that there are people, again, under the rubble that there are messages coming from people under the rubble. of course, as we've been reporting over the 2 weeks, these areas that have been affected are so broken, whatever is standing is, is structurally unsafe. so something of this power and it was incredibly powerful. and last for quite some time has collapsed buildings. and you has got people, we don't understand the scale of it yet. i don't think certainly it's on a massive scale. but yes, videos coming out that we've been seeing, showing people running again, panicked. you know,

the mental stress of this is putting under people even we were just discussing it. we've covered wars, we've covered danger situations. you know, where the frontline is, you can kind of read certain things when it comes to worse, not everything. but this, when you're dealing with mother nature, when you're dealing with something like this, it comes suddenly, there is nothing you can do. and i think this is having a major impact on the people here. and stephanie, given the fear that you're describing there, and the fact that as you put it, everything is strong or lots of things are structurally unsafe. what, where are people going to sleep tonight? while we're in our data, which is the city that largely has been unaffected, i would say yes, certain areas have been, but the other areas that we've been seeing a lot of people aren't sleeping in the buildings anyway. they've moved away with relatives, their sleeping intense me people here were saying they want to sleep in the car to night. they don't want to sleep in the hotel. we're very lucky because most of the times these kinds of buildings are built with earthquake standards. but are,

there is a panic and there isn't unpredictability. and the that the, the, the mental toll that these last 2 weeks have taken on people and everything that has happened, there is no where to go at essentially to feel safe away from buildings in a car. yes. but even, you know, we've seen the damage done to infrastructure, we see streets, the highways that have literally have massive cracks in the ground. so all these things play a major impact. so what i, of course, is where the epicenter was already massively affected. this is causing terror among people, again, they're already not in buildings. some of the people who did return to their homes thinking it was safe. of course, now been massively affected by this or they will be sleeping outside again tonight . certainly from some of the people that we understand, but again, it's just a constant blurry, you know, it's a constant and i think this is something that is very difficult to comprehend how that is affecting people, how unexpectedly and people think ok,

it's been 2 weeks. the aftershocks are getting last, are there milder it's a safe to go back to my home or it's, you know, it's all right to, to go back to things that may not be that structurally. then such a powerful earthquake hits again, you know, and there's nothing you could do about it. and we've seen him in the last few days of that she'd and some of the rescue teams had been, had been going home as it is that now situation, whether they'll be lack again of people there to, to deal with the people who are buried again under rubble a lot of the international teams have pulled out in the past couple of days for sure. i fired yesterday. the a national disaster management agency had officially cooled off in most places, the rescue operation that it was our recovery operation. yes. now again, there will have to be rescue operations in certain areas. i'm still not clear on this scale. i don't think it's on the massive scale certainly because sadly lar, and the reality is that most people are out of their homes because of the extent of

damage that those 1st or 2 earthquakes caused and in these regions along the full flight. so oh, you're that the, the most places that would have been damaged with such a major truck have been damaged so they're no longer. they no longer have people, which is why i think from the reports, we're getting some people under the rubble of 88 people and hospital we just heard from the interior minister giving a press conference initially there was almost her as soon army warning that is now gone away, so things are calming down there, but the bigger sure, i think is more of the mental terror that this is inflicting on people, rather than their being again, a major sort of a physical death toll if you will, or people trapped on the road. but again, it's been about an hour, so we'll have to wait and see. just in terms of what you said about warnings, how, how much is there any kind of, you know, pre warning when it comes to aftershocks or even further earthquakes, it has the, as i mean, any sense of people being given a heads up no,

i mean i don't wanna talk about r t, but just to give you a sense from what we've lived in god's young have we been based there for the last 2 weeks, which is one of the, at the federal close to the epicenter every night. we feel after shot through had been waking up with a very quick, usually quick but rough. the building would crack. if it take, it took a very mental toll. so we thought, okay, well, i donna, there's been nothing we have other team staying here. it's also where we're flying out from, so we thought we're going to move there for the last 2 days, particularly because one of our team members is continuing to work. and you know, it takes a mental toll when everything we work, we see. and then you come back to sleep and you can't sleep because of this concert . it has a mental, a fact. so here for the last 2 days, we were completely like we would saying it feels like we're very much detached from the story because it feels different here. it feel safer. and then suddenly out of the blue people who are in their rooms, i was in the shower, others were sitting downstairs suddenly, violently, you have a shake,

add that loss around 30 seconds. and as i was describing, you know, just watching people run down the terror. people crying, housing, their children calling their families. it's, it's, there is no, there is no warning. and that's the thing again, when you are talking about other dangers. manmade conflicts, wars, there is always a certain language that you can understand and how to operate. when it comes to this, when it comes to mother nature, when it comes to earthquakes, there is simply nothing you can when there are no warning. just need to thank you very much indeed. somebody that is in another part of dana and somebody you've been talking to people who are out on the streets and tell us what living things you were going live semi. yeah, well it's been, i'll sadly repetition of this terrible cycle of fear reports of collapses going on around the country and other places. now we're getting

reports of people being in the rubble and tie, the mayor is said, there are people that are full of some people having been injured it's it's a terrifying grief play when you go out and talk to people, it was very afraid here and donna i'll tell you what the lease is up. there was no building collapses so far, no reports of anyone having been injured so far. but a lot of people are scared. we got it. we were driving on the highway from no dog, the at the center of the 1st like that head towards the donna. when this happened, we got out, we started to speak with people. and a lot of people are simply afraid they felt the buildings shake. and it puts people back into the 3 play once again of the nightmare that they, they've been living. let's see if we can find anyone who actually had a consent. i think i said look, williamson ok. so i'm going to ask him

a few questions. i couldn't tell when couldn't well. okay, so he said he said he was working when to come up. okay. so he was working in a restaurant when the earthquake, it has had said that he will last year and he had to run out of the building. he was afraid we had bus layla goodrich on it to special ed. we had a letter that says he so afraid she couldn't do it and he so afraid he thinks he's going to stay out tonight. he doesn't want to go back in. he's really worried about that, and this is to answer your question. this is the, the story we hear from people when we bump into people in the 3, are you stop how on the street, and you say, what happened? they say tara panic. we're going through this again. so hopefully, you know, it's,

it's, it's still quite a strong earthquake. 6.9. i'm going to see if we can come in here because it was a gentleman i was talking to earlier. hopefully he's still around you know, people have gone through this again. hopefully there hasn't been a lot of damage. but it, it does a lot of psychological impact on people because people are afraid. but i think here we are. this is jan who had talking earlier. we do, can we are now live. so jan you own this building, right? yes. and you're staying here with your family? yes. why? because you have a you could be at home or somewhere else. right? yes, i have my old home is one flats which has to be here because we've pilled us. we should be here for support. our workers, make them feel more comfortable and also our guests to feel more comfortable. and we trust our building where you hear about an hour and something ago and they

are like hey, did you feel the earthquake? i felt 3 of the earthquakes that we had here. 7.47.2. and the last one was 3. the last one officially is 5.86 point 644604 an office of 5.8. yeah. here i was it. did you feel you were in our rooms? all are all the guesswork fever in our rooms, but we really feel comfortable because if you of a, the main principles of the construction technologies, you don't need to worry about anything and you don't fit in that building. you can always hand. i'm a engineer, my architect, history. i am 40. we make this building with everything the

park before starting to building. we make our grounds more stronger. so you feel you've taken the right precautions to make this play? yeah, i should point out john's here with the family, so that's how i guess, you know, his, his wife and kids. it's all right for, for us i did ask beforehand, this wasn't a complete surprise. so thank you so much for go through it. we hope we can go. i wish we could meet with any other reason, but we are hosting you here because of the earthquake. thank you. i hope all the best for you and your guests and you and your family. thank you so much. and as you can see, there's a lot of, lot of people hanging around here, we've been speaking to other people earlier and ask them what their plans are. a lot of people about a lot of people are obviously afraid that hopeful that who knows how many more after shocks or how many more earthquakes are coming. that's kind of the question,

but some people's mind when we talk to them. so i'm gonna hand you back to london for now. tell me they don't. thank you very much. indeed that's bringing in a route to being falling developments for us in syria. and they know situation in syria. very difficult, partly because of the years of war as well and, and they felt again this, this latest earthquake. yes. in northwest syria, as well as in government controlled aleppo, we're getting reports that some buildings that were damaged in the february, 6 earthquake, half collapse. but we're, we're not getting any reports of, of serious injuries. most of the people of people who were affected by the, the initial earthquake 2 weeks ago are now living intense outdoors footage or video emerging from, from that corner of syria. you can see people in their cars, those who have cars, those who don't are, are just in the street. so people are frightened, their, their,

their panicking even here in bay root, in the lebanese capital and across lebanon. people are out on the streets, they've seen and watch the images from central turkey and northwest syria. and they fear the worst, especially in countries like lebanon in syria, where most buildings are not structurally safe. where successive governments have not really enforced proper building, building standards and in northwest syria, they're only just beginning to deal with the emergency. hospitals remain overwhelmed with injured people. doctors are complaining about the lack of bandages, even they're saying that they also need equipment to, to deal with dialysis because of so many patients suffering from crush injuries. this could have fatal consequences. and that's why many, many will need kidney dialysis and they just don't have that equipment. so there is still an emergency. the tragedy is only unfolding in the northwest corner of syria

and government controlled areas of syria. 8 have been arriving planes, landing and government controlled airports and the united nations actually operates in those in those cities. but in northwest syria, appeals for help, you know, are only growing louder. indeed have been told to issue the political difficulties of those areas in northern syria, a difficult to get to the best of times. so to tell us what's been happening was any progress on trying to get the 8 in a bit faster. aid has been arriving, but there is no international response if you like the syrian government. what they wanted to do was control the flow of aid into the northwest corner of syria by 1st allowing cross line deliveries. that means aid is able to cross the front lines from government to opposition. territory. the

opposition didn't want this because they didn't want to be held hostage by, by a regime that has killed hundreds of thousands of people in the past 12 years. what they have been demanding is for it to be delivered across the border from, from southern turkey here. but the problem is a turkey, which was really there, lifeline is itself devastated by the earthquake. many of the n t o is picking up the pieces themselves. so it is, it is very, very difficult task, but at the same time to united nations has also acknowledged that they failed the people of syria. so this is like a corner of syria isolated from, from the rest of the world. getting aid in needs to happen now because when we were there just a few days ago, people are desperate for food. this is an area where 2000000 people before the earthquake were not able to survive without aid. an after the earthquake, us tens of thousands of people who are just as desperate,

they've lost their livelihoods, they're sleeping out in the open. these are people who are used to death, destruction, and displacement. but now there's a new wave, a 2nd wave of displacement in the area. so the situation is desperate and there's a lot of tonic following. the latest earthquake and what we are hearing is that they're continuing to feel after shocks that we mentioned briefly the, the opposition almost were refusing. the help from the central government is that a position that they're going to be able to continue to stick to given the state of emergency that there is. while the opposition is there in a very difficult position, throughout the course of the war. if you remember, the government put politicized aid was, was used as a weapon of war. they besieged areas they allowed to aid in after, after the armed opposition surrendered. for example, they don't want to be held hostage again. and what their greatest fear now is that

the syrian president, bashar assad, has been using this disaster 2 inches way back on the international stage. we've seen a number of arab leaders of hold phone conversations with him, plain plains of you know, loaded with a landing into my skus and a level. and just a few hours ago he was an old man. yes, man did not cut off diplomatic relations with syria, but, but there has been no money official visiting damascus throughout the war. and now you see the syrian president almost being accepted by more and more arab countries . and so when, when people of the northwest, you know, look, you know, see what, what these developments they're concerned. because these are people who cannot and will not live under the rule of the sharp. alas, said these are people who rose up against his rule. and if they're ever to live under his rule,

their security is not guaranteed. so it's not just the question of surviving putting food on the table, finding shelter, finding medicine, now, they are worried about the political, their political future. they know how to thank you very much. indeed. deaf again is the picture there from beirut about the situation and serial is very latest earthquake, 6.4 magnitude. let's get to that. i just now from it live in syria, we spoke to do huffy, i'll handle an activist and residence in the city. all people here now are not safe of anything are not sure and, and they don't trust anything, even in their buildings are very strong. and i think it, because what they have seen is impact makes all people in fact, you know, you know, losing their cross, their country does anything, even some, some buildings by the way, have been destroyed. and the last, but fortunately, all these buildings which have been collapsed are empty. the people in fact learned

a little bit from the previous earthquake and they didn't risk to live in some buildings which are weak. but people here, i think these 9, none of people, we can leave the whole the whole night all children, even even most people who have any, anyone who has gone, i'm sure, will not go back before the morning. people nowadays are scared from nights because you are strong earthquakes that happen at night. so this b makes people nowadays, in fact, a long time, we will have this problem out of nice. maybe normally we will have problems and nightmare out of night. but know these nightmares are, are real, those people that who have affected by the biggest, we are still living in very severe conditions as the committee for them is not

enough. most of these people are living with other families in one small houses or are intense. these people even have problems in getting aids at the age. now, in fact, couldn't reach all those people who have a, some few people who have been affected. we have more than 1000000 people in this area. and most of these people in fact, couldn't get any access is because in fact these people didn't know, they are not the concern about food, but maybe because they are concerned about their safety, their family member safety. but of course, i mean, they are in me, but they are depending now on each other to wait and survive. these people should get a aid and home own the from every one. earlier monday, turkish president rich uptime powder one visited areas affected by the 1st 2 earthquakes, and promised to rebuild everything. worth rest assured and be positive. we will

restore all homes, institutions, and other facilities. we will rebuild the entire area from scratch, we promise and assure you all that we have the resources and capabilities and not a single citizen will be left behind. your way of life will be restored as was before the earthquake. we promise all those living and camps, shelters, and prefabricated homes, that within one year the rebuilding operations will be completed. all residential units completed and handed over to you. your sex, your state has also been in took here. are to visiting devastated regions on sunday, yell talks in ankara on monday, antony lincoln told his turkish counterpart never chevy. so you, that to washington would fully support the recovery efforts. should it cost you reports from anchorage? this is the 1st official visit by u. s. secretary of state, antonia blank into turkey since he took office 2 years ago. he arrived here on sunday nearly 2 weeks after devastating earthquakes shook southern trickier and

northern syria. blink and says, washington is ready to help on cobra for as long as it takes stressing the fact rebuilding in this region will require a lot of time and effort. nato's expansion is also on the agenda. finland, sweden have already taken concrete steps to fulfill the commitments they made under the trilateral memorandum of agreement that they signed with tricky on the margins of the nato summit. madrid we welcome and appreciate those steps. i think they're quite significant. the u. s. center kit don't agree on ever issue. while giving a green light for finland to join nato on current beliefs suite a need to do more to kids, their defense cap ability is another issue for the nato allies to discuss. especially after anchored a purchase was a massage systems in 2019. if one of the problem is that you get this on doing that again, we discuss the latest situation regarding our f. 16 request at the meeting today.

the us administration strongly supports our plea and we thank them for this. we hope they will make an official notification to the u. s. congress on this matter as soon as possible. and it is in the interest of both parties to complete this process promptly. choice all assess ciocca is not in favor of conditional sales of the f sixteens and has asked for the return of the $1400000000.00 on car paid for the f. 35 fighter jet program to kill was unilaterally remote from it. turkish american relations have been slain for some time now the spies, the washington immediate relief response to on current shows, the relationship is still strong and the nato still need to care. however, there are still many issues to overcome. american support for y p g kurdish fighters in syria is one of them. turkish officials have designated the group as a terrorist organization and say the u. s. cooperation is a gray mistake,

while washington insist the y p g is crucial for its fight against iso. seen am castillo al jazeera and cut up. still to come natal, brazil's president towards the poppy resort region where floods and lands lives have killed at least $36.00 people. and the un security council formerly denounces the israel government plan to build and expand settlements on occupied pasting integrity. ah well it is a damaging lea windy we came to the winds, continued to start the week. now this is the wind, the area which is actually followed by cloud. this is the active frontal zone which brings rain or snow for the west. europe settled under high pressure all east, so it looks that the picture on tuesday is clear, the windy one from jimmy through poland eventually towards you. cray,

with the snow across in southern rushes, quite intense. they'll have to say, with the wind blowing quite strongly off the black sea. as you can see, this is the area of really active and cold weather in europe. it doesn't affect turkey after mondays or tuesday, looks fine and sunny for the most part. and further west in europe, where pressure was high be eaten into by cloud and rain. so after rather warm spell in france for example, it's now not the same feeling at all. blue represents rain light ish. there it is. away from europe into north west africa. we have seen plenty of rain inst i recently now just scattering a shower, to dry picture for the most. the ha martin is dying down a bit still full of dust and sand. take the for sale even further into nigeria. but generally speaking, a dry and less windy picture in southern africa. it has been very wet in south africa, less so know. but freddy, the psycho is about to hit madagascar. ah
