6:21 pm
hucker or jail. he is an economic columnist with sabbath daily newspaper. good to have you with us, sir. first of all, you know, when you look at what the world bank is saying, they're saying just the cost of the damage that's been done is $34000000000.00. it could cost $2.00 to $3.00 times more than that to fix it. where is that money gonna come from? do you think move this the, i think the turkey is expecting to get. so some assistance from mergers as, as some countries, including the european union, united nations and other friends and in neighboring countries. but in lesser, that forget that turkey is in nuts and the turkey off that is usually pupil remembers from the old days, i mean a concert in need of hell off other concierge. and is in need of new cars
6:22 pm
and assistance from international organizations and thing that is that true turkey can. now if the i don't mean right now, but in the long run, can afford to, to take care of it is does damage it. i think it is daring also. this started doing it. you're building it. yeah. housing for the people and it is only 2 things are, is sticking right now in my mind. the ard that 2 provinces. a 2nd that go your reports are as reporting from common mirage or marsh. ready in short and garcia's dep wore on tip in short are really economic industrial. i mean, if i could, because i said the lines are still to me and many of the shuttle cost the government is promising to try and, and fix this very soon that. and you know,
6:23 pm
officials talking about within a year, they talk about starting in a matter of weeks, they're going to start the reconstruction effort. and if we're talking about, well, could be 60, could be $90000000000.00. we'll take care have to borrow. i know you right what you said. some countries are promising 8, but it doesn't add up to $90000000000.00. will take care, have to borrow money and where would that leave the countries finances if it default for, for, for, for the housing immediate need, just for the housing to take the people from the intensity is from container c as today re, a proper housing. the, it's not going to cost that much new turkey is not very experienced country in building these large a housing projects and the there are lots of housing projects in underway right now . and the, i think the government all by itself can manage to, to finance them. but the, i was going to mention that industrial base on those towns that it looks like
6:24 pm
damaged and you have to rebuild them. because turkey's export base is mostly, i think the not if i'm not, the 2nd number is one 4th, we're off the export based off turkey comes from this region. and this is going to take some, you have some assistance from the united nations and the neighboring countries. in it shouldn't be in the case, give, give the form of cash donations to the government. i think turkey can get some, some credits. busy from some international organizations, except i am f o course. turkey is not ever going to rethink that the you getting into the i m f j. but the naval manage. i mean, right now, turkey even yesterday is sign a very large
6:25 pm
a noun assistance program, mid united arab emirates, and katara and saudi arabia. these are important documents for cherokee and in, besides, if it's a huge thing and the turkey is going to suffer a little bit. people are going to suffer a little bit. and did they know that this is not going to his hall next day or next month? warehousing is important. is still the summer in season is almost upon us and did the area just neighborhood do 11 the provinces are in the southeast in turkey, and it is usually hot climate. and if you are not going to need to watch construct, all right, thank you so much for joining us, sir. and explaining to us your perspective on that. and of course,
6:26 pm
when we talk about the cost of the damage that's been done, we could also talk about syria. let's run you through some numbers about the cost of damage there. it's been estimated at around $5100000000.00. that's around 10 percent of the country's g, d p. and of course, more than 5000000 people were told, have been made homeless. in a situation especially dire in the rebels held rebel control north of syria. it's been hard to get aid into their lot of stories of suffering like that of mohammed georgia. he lost his mother, his wife, and 2 of his sons in the earthquake, only him and his 4 year old daughter survived. ah, ah ah!

6:33 pm
military campaign in ukraine and spiders have been at the forefront of some of the most hard for battles. and they've also been accused of abuse and human rights violations. the use of mercenaries and conflict is not unique to the war in ukraine as other than j. it has more now from moscow, mercenaries, or fighters. some of the men from this group are accused of robberies, rape and massacres by western countries. or the magnet group says it's done nothing wrong. they call themselves musicians and their battles, concerts. intelligence estimate said, tens of thousands of bags. mercenaries have been involved in ukraine. russian criminal court bands, mercenaries, but private armed security guards are allowed, lead bay of guinea proportion. believe to be close to the kremlin, the groups been involved in combat operations and syria, libya so done, the central african republic and ukraine is yeah, the other, i'm more than this is the a more there's a perfectly established command and control system of the wagner. private military
6:34 pm
company, every one is heard, every one can hire their opinion. all conversations any with the phrase, what their opinion is there, and what else is needed to complete the tasks. if decisions are made, once it's made, all tasks are carried out and no one can back down. the brutal discipline gives us these opportunities. that is why the wagner went forward and we'll go forward. they do not see themselves as cannon fodder. in their view, their heroes fighting for their country. wagner used to source or sorta leader wagner has its own artillery aviation. so they have their own training centers. it's an interesting solution to create the kind of private military company that russia has managed to create of they've learned from the british and the americans are super. but that's not unique for the russia ukraine conflict. unless said the appeal of private armies means few were dead soldiers and these groups are not bound by laws as regular armies. united nation studies has hired as security guards
6:35 pm
by contractors were performing military duties. the you and working groups as specific judicial actions needed to prosecute private, military and security companies involved in human rights violations. in 2014, the u. s. group black water was found guilty of killing 14 rocky civilians in 2007, and the 3rd continues its presence with different names. the u. e has been accused of hiring mercenaries in yemen. german x soldiers are being charged with creating a mercenary army to fight for saudi arabia. a hungarian israeli private security company owner is accused of hiring us military personnel to can specific individuals. and there is a long list of guns for hire international conflicts. according to the u. n.

6:36 pm
instead of the ones bound by international law rights abuses will continue on battlefields, some of which are without the 0 moscow. well, it's hammering in pavel falcon, how his air defense and military analyst, and he joins us now via skype from moscow. and pavel, it feels like a rift has appeared in his deepening between wagner and the kremlin, which is a little surprising given history. where is this coming from? all there's the where you want history of conflict between the comp, russian military leadership and the wagner group. the wagner group appeared, and we create an actually in the don bus fighting after this situation, there stabilized in 15 many a fight fighters. they are decided, it's not interesting to fight because there is low, there's no offense, a faction, no lute. and so they moved into syria where russia began,
6:37 pm
and operation began fighting bear and marie there. there were serious confrontation, conflicts between the russian official military command and the wagner. so always complained that they were bad with supply that they got the got old weapons, not the nations didn't get adequate air. cars support from the russian military command. and now a wagner moved the back back into ukraine and expanded dramatically. and there, there on western contract kind of contract 2 or mercenary loops. these are a front line, crack storm troops. they're used like that. that's a very big difference. they can get have heavy losses. but they also have the capability, have shown the capability to advance and very serious situations and then can
6:38 pm
sustain the losses. and their owner, or financier and leader is getting you pre gordon is using that as a platform to attack personally, the defense minister is number 2 are chief of general staff general a your us him of who's right now actually in charge of the overall motor operation . and moving, so let me ask you about that hovel because i understand that progression was room it to be fairly close to the previous chief in charge of that operation. sir sir, a v can and there was that shuffle that happened about a month ago. and now garrison love is in charge. is this about alliances? is that why we're seeing now this, this, when you'd criticism? who am i? a gear us him of who has been chief of general stephens and, and did 1st deputy defense ministers since 201212 for reggie 10 years
6:39 pm
or more than 10 years. and he has the promoted a group of generals, mostly tang generals, and the figures and has conflict with most of them. serenity kim is a bit outstanding there. so he also was in command in syria out together with the voc, there's and he had fancy, has a bit better relationship. shawn, there has been a change in command. and right now the rest of is in overall control and his staff is an over of control including logistics applying for a theme victor, the year bob with their needs and they're using him of personally for being inadequate. and also of his group of generals. oh, so being an addict, but so this is an open conflict and it's going to be very interesting to see how it plays out, especially with ammunition in the coming weeks. that dynamic is going to be something will keep an eye on pablo falcon. however, a defense in military, unless speaking to us from oscar. thank you,
6:40 pm
pam. thank you. now leading on and fights have broken out in george's parliament. ah. there's anger there about a proposed law which targets and years and media outlets that receive more than 20 percent of their funding from abroad law, which is very similar to legislation passed in russia, would require them to register as agents of foreign influence. many believe that this would damage george's chances of joining the european union. more than $60000.00 somalis, mainly women and children, have fled to neighboring ethiopia to escape recent violence and somali land. more than half of them arrived earlier this week. tensions between locals and the governing somalia landel authorities have been building for weeks. a 100 people have been killed in the violence there. sheltering now in ethiopia, strauss affected eastern region and the somali president hudson shake mohammed is

here and are hard to speak at the un conference on least developed countries. he told delegates the long run in conflict in his country, his hampering efforts to achieve the un sustainable development calls. earlier, he joined my colleague madison, who started by asking him how his government is handling one of the main threats. i'll show bob. so many people off try to to stop this through peaceful news, talk to them. but this was a desperate now the, so when the government decided to go and solve this problem throughout all out was not on the military, but many other areas as well. to create a conducive invited with for brit conclusively to foreign or crush to build the for investment to come to the country for so might have people to come back to somebody to willfulness. she 3000000 people scattered on the book as a future of us, a diaspora. so this is what we are looking for on we are trying. so is you another option, other than to me, this terrorist groups to 11,
6:42 pm
whether they cannot threaten this, tabulate of the country. so we are fighting that show up with military. we're fight dealership, ideologically, because they're claiming that the faith based organization. we are also fighting, not shabbat economical, that we need to close all the types of sources of income or the revenue that they are getting to propagate the, the violence, much of the funding for the fights. that similes, military is me in the middle of, with regard to the on groups is coming from foreign governments cleaning the u. s. and the u. k. and, and several others. are you at all concerned that that gives foreign governments a degree of leverage with somalia given that they are putting so much money into this fight? well, these countries and many more they have been putting a lot of money in somalia. i have for the last 30 years. so there is a certain level of fatigue in some of the multilateral institutions and some of the countries. so that's what makes us to make our self committed at that if somebody
6:43 pm
will give or one that is was visit of the countries don't leveraging this, you know, the world today is a world of interests. somebody has interest and the world as an interest in somalia, depending on each and every country, we have a 0 enema policy and our foreign policy. we are, we are not enemy to in one in the world. we will deal any concrete how he deals with us. so there are some friends, close friends, some remote people that are not one in the world. some one, it's part of this global world of $200.00 fed, especially this for and as they have supported shamaya. of course, we will remain committed with them as well. opposition candidates in nigeria are protesting against the with the results of last week's presidential election. they're, they're rejecting the outcome and are planning to challenge it in court. molar to new of the governing party was declared the winner with 37 percent of the vote. i'm

6:45 pm
mazili, my city and william miss, i get. this is an important issue. if they're really hands involved and people groups are involved in this matter, this is a big, an unforgivable crime, and responsible agencies, intelligence services, and law enforcement agencies must pursue them concerning, and the perpetrators must be condemned to severe punishments. it is a serious, an unforgivable crime. there will be no amnesty for them. at least the 9 police officers have been killed and a suicide bomb attack. and southwestern pakistan had happened in catch district in the province of blotch has done several others have been injured. no group has claimed responsibility behind the attack or universities across afghanistan have reopened after the winter break. but taliban authority is still bar women from attending the university ban is one of several restrictions imposed on women since the taliban seized power in 2021. foreign ministers and

rights groups have condemned the restrictions, but the united nations has called gender based a parties now, cutting edge jean therapies could become more accessible in the coming years. that's what scientists and policy makers will be discussing at the human genome editing conference in london column baker asthma. 5 years ago humanity quietly crossed into a new era. a scientist walked on stage of the human genome editing conference in hong kong. to reveal he'd modified the embryos of twin girls before they were born . he changed to gene known to create resistance to infection by h i. v. scientists in the audience were shocked, and a near unanimous call was made to halt similar attempts. illnesses like sickle cell anemia, cystic fibrosis and huntington's disease are inherited. they start as variations in genes, the codes in human dna that tell bodies how to make cells out of millions of letters
6:47 pm
of code. just one can be out of place. and in some cases, only one parent needs to have a variant gene to pass a serious and rare condition to their children. new tools are available to edit the human genome. the most efficient so far is crisper. it finds cuts and replaces parts of genes to deliver new genetic code to a target with great accuracy. our vision or dream is that there would be basically a crisp or cure center where physicians would see a child there. the child's dna would get red and professional geneticists would understand what causes the disease. and then they would send that information to the crisper cures group. and they would be like a rapid response team. they would just jump on it today. genetic editing therapies modify immune cells to recognize cancer, correct loss of vision directly in the eye, and seem to have reversed sickle cell anemia by editing the cells in bone marrow.
6:48 pm
they want to really pay attention as, and these technologies are being developed as they're getting closer and closer to market. about how we are considering the population at hand that have access or don't have access to these technologies. a human embryo contains a few cells that become a whole person. in theory, these could be edited to prevent a rare or serious inherited disease from ever starting. but no studies have shown how an embryonic edit would affect a person throughout their life. and as an embryo develops into a fetus, and he changes would be replicated to including in the cells involved in reproduction that would allow human made changes to be passed down generation after generation. with unknown effects, the last time they met scientists and ethicists said it was too soon to try with new therapies coming online. it might also not be worth the risk colon baker al
6:49 pm
jazeera. i don't know how it shines us now from the human gene i met is in conference there in london. jane at one can always imagine the enthusiasm for the potential aspect says from the list and i medicine. but presumably there are ethical questions as well. i, there are always going to be ethical questions of course, and that is very much at the heart of what's being talked about here among some of the world's leading scientists, researchers, practitioners into this new frontier of medical and scientific research. let me bring in one of them now to peter mckenzie joins me. she's a pediatric and for fetal surgeon from university of california, san francisco. thank you so much for joining us. now, i want to get this right. you're involved in research on treating genetic diseases . in utero, in other words, before birth, that being quite different to the scenario we've just heard in collins report about chinese scientists to announced here in 2018 that he had worked and changed the
6:50 pm
genetic code of 2 twins, who then came to term and he was ostracized for it. how exactly does your work differ ethically and practically from that? yeah, it's completely different. so i work in fetal surgery and fidel therapy which has existed since the 1980s to treat severe genetic and anatomic conditions before birth. ah, 1st by doing surgery and now more and more we're starting to do some of these more molecular therapies, like stem cell transplants are enzyme replacement therapy. and gene therapy or editing has not been attempted before birth, but it would be for say, 2nd or 3rd, trimester fetus says, am to prevent irreversible oregon disease and it would not be heritable changes. it would really be for what we call the sematic cells. the cells in the organs of that fetus, so that when they're born, they can be born, i'm healthier. in other words,
6:51 pm
in layman's terms, not heritable means they caught the, then passed on to the next generation via that fetus that becomes a human being. and so, or nevertheless, you are talking about experimental research in neutral it must be among the most, if not the most sensitive area of this field in ethical terms. absolutely. um and it's a really unique case because you actually have 2 patients on the table, right? you have the mother and the fetus and we, when we have our along ethical, am history of thinking about the ethical consequences of fidel therapy when you have those 2 patients. and really their maternal choice and maternal safety are paramount. and we work very closely with embedded emphasis in our research team to make sure that we are considering all of their, all of the options and all the considerations are when we speak to patients, non direct of li about their options for the pregnancy to be thank you so much,
6:52 pm
i'm afraid we're gonna have to leave it there. thank you though for your time this conference summit it is now in its 3rd edition here in london making ever greater steps really towards that new frontier that new horizon in this secular field of medical research as and how that for us at that conference and, and thank you so much, jen. ah, well, it is now time for sport and his andy, thank you so much. the stars he will manchester united manager ericsson hawkins described his team's performance against liverpool, on sunday, as unprofessional, and unacceptable. united lost 7 new liverpool at am. fuser, heaviest to fate against the biggest rivals and hope see now has to wiggle ahead of you locally. some against real places in thursday are as small as people can see. scotland legend and beans, voice on with andy grey about what this results means. the bus that was thought yes,
6:53 pm
the be on? yes, it is. performance. liverpool was sensational. they were, they were back to the liverpool that had won the premier league. there were back to the liverpool, it caught belt, full of energy, a high octane football and manchester that you couldn't corporate it. so liverpool on yes, these performance definitely back. as for much as you dated. wow. what could the see about their performance? the what did you use? abysmal comes to me. they just didn't produce a single thing. i tried to think yes. are there one much as you need to player that played well yesterday, and i couldn't think of one but so bad the route so they were awful yesterday, but they've got football games coming up to again, trail betters the please. south hampton, at old trafford. that weekend, and that's a massive game that got to go and beat south hampton beat them well, to sure the funds are back. but the one thing that jen, hi guess father, he was right, but performance yesterday from much as united is unacceptable. okay, now you yourself have scored goals at an field, but i want to ask you,
6:54 pm
what was your peg of the goals last night? and i'll tell you when a lake was caught, he got caused 2nd. okay. and the fog golden, the game, i think it was, it was the way it was constructed. it was, it was liverpool at the very, very best you know, a jordan henderson and suddenly they've got look at sheila, it just leaves shaw and then your 2nd. what was was gap co who's are going to get is you're going to get some, he embarrassed is one of the best defenders in the premier league here. let's see here. and suddenly gap coke object. i met some magnificent british so that gall rear said to me, but slept at the very, very best in transition take. he was absolutely unbelievable when this is when the best defenders in the league on his feet didn't stay there for very long. and maybe this kid that was just that i said a little bit of a problem, so could adapt. cool. what is the best performers last night? and when you picked the front men, father sat there, selah, nunez, and chapel. and they're all score 2 goals each. but the courts can only be but very

of his vaccination status, now steph curry has made his return from injury to the golden state warriors. the 34 year old had been out of action for a month, despite his best efforts. kerry couldn't have any steam from falling to a narrow loss in this game against the lakers. the rainy and b, a champions of fift in the western conference press 7 seen games left in the regular one or so great to get thrown back in there, you know, right away. so, you know, as low as sluggish in terms of like the skill, sharpness, the skills are early and as you start to feel the spirit again. and like i said, if i get better as again goes on is always a great time for me individually. and then our team, even though we lost some bright spots for sure. so, so far, great maxima, stephan is one, the opening race. if the former one sees in the writing will champion leading from
