to help turkey's earthquake victims. good evening and welcome to the bbc news at six. the desperate search for survivors is continuing for a second night across a vast area of southern turkey and northern syria after two major earthquakes devastated the region yesterday. at least 6,000 people are known to have died, but with so many feared trapped under the rubble, no—one knowsjust how much higher the death toll will climb. freezing temperatures are hampering efforts to reach people caught under the rubble while they were sleeping, and there's particular concern for those in syria, one of the poorest regions in the world, that's already been ravaged by years of conflict. 0ur middle east correspondent anna foster has spent the last two days travelling on her own towards the epicentre of the quake. she's one of the first journalists to arrive there. and shejoins us now. when you get here, took one of the

worst—affected areas, you really see the difference. whole streets destroyed, whole buildings toppled. it is on a different scale from anything you really experience on the fringes, and this rescue and recovery effort, is going on all day and all night. it does not stop, even though it is dark and cold, because they just do even though it is dark and cold, because theyjust do not have the resources they need. as more and more rescuers arrived, every single one of them is so desperately needed. here at the epicentre, every rescuer is waiting for this moment. after hours trapped in the rubble, a sign of life. a family complete again. each survivor feels like a miracle. but these are hard and painful days, and not everyone gets to experience hope.

this powerful quake has claimed more than 3,500 lives so far. in marash, it has taken the heart of a city, too. the destruction is vast. there is a bitterly cold wind here today, and it is whipping up the smoke and the debris, the particles of dirt, it goes in your eyes, it goes in your throat. and despite that, the rescuers are still here on top of this pile of rubble. this is a whole city block in the centre of marash, maybe nine or ten buildings, nowjust melded together into a huge pile of twisted metal and broken glass, and still, still they search in the hope of finding survivors underneath all this. people here wonder if they can ever rebuild. "marash is finished," they told me. "marash is finished."

under a flattened building in adiyaman, a child cries. "fatma," a man shouts into a hole in the debris. here, there are no emergency services. nobody can help. the scars run right across southern turkey. the same disparate scenes in each town. today, president erdogan declared a state of emergency. when night falls, the searching becomes harder than ever, but there are small victories. "where is my mum?" this child cries as she is carried to safety. many areas are still without power tonight. some people are homeless. others are just too scared to go back indoors. translation: they are - speaking, but nobody comes. we are finished. we are finished, my god,

there is nobody here, nobody. what kind of state is this? in the winter snow, this part of turkey is bitterly cold. people burn what they can in the street to keep warm. but it doesn't hold off the biting wind and the feelings of abandonment. only a fraction of the help needed has arrived here so far. it makes each day feel like a fresh struggle for survival. anna foster, bbc news, marash. yesterday's after it was the biggest in the region since 1939. —— yesterday's earthquake. the border area between turkey and syria is one of the world's most seismically active regions.

that's because it sits on the fault line, where three tectonic plates come together. the arabian plate is constantly pushing into the eurasian plate, which squeezes this one, the anatolian plate, to the west. where the plates grind past each other, more fault lines are created, leading to the earthquake we saw yesterday. that initial earthquakes triggered dozens more along the faultline — you can see them all marked here. 0ur correspondent quentin sommerville has been to one of the towns caught in one of those aftershocks. his report contains some distressing scenes. with pickaxe and hammer, determination and hope, they dig for lost relatives in antakya. this backbreaking work. these men. their city and country are overwhelmed, and the lives of those trapped in here depend on them. sixth floor, apartment block. families on every floor. ten minutes ago, theyjust heard a voice, so they are digging to try and get to whoever it is buried deep inside all of this. they can see a man and a child trapped inside. again, they hear something, so they call for silence. and the

weight. they dig more carefully now, but they are too late. both are already dead. with so many still trapped, there's barely time for grief here. so what happens now? we are grief here. so what happens now? - are going to find the live ones. we will look for them.— are going to find the live ones. we will look for them. there's barely a corner of the _ will look for them. there's barely a corner of the city _ will look for them. there's barely a corner of the city of _ will look for them. there's barely a corner of the city of 500,000 - will look for them. there's barely a l corner of the city of 500,000 people that has not been turned up and torn apart by the earthquakes. antakya's devastation is near total. this is the scene all across antakya. it is not just the scene all across antakya. it is notjust individual buildings that have come down, it is entire city blocks, and there are groups of men on top of most of these piles of rubble listening carefully, listening out for survivors. but they know that it will soon be 48 hours since the first earthquake struck, and every minute that goes by, every hour that passes, lessens their chances of finding survivors here. and the people here know it.

you won't return to help, this woman shouts at the police. you are lying. i do not accept you abandoning us. this man tells me he has been here since yesterday, begging for help. most of his family were inside the building. he heard cries, but now there is only silence and loss. still they find survivors, but they are few. this man hasjust been rescued. translation: i are few. this man hasjust been rescued. tuna/mom- are few. this man hasjust been rescued. translation: i was 36 hours underground- i — rescued. translation: i was 36 hours underground. i had lost _ rescued. translation: i was 36 hours underground. i had lost all— rescued. translation: i was 36 hours underground. i had lost all hope. - underground. i had lost all hope. corpses litter every pavement here. in a city where time is running out for the living, the dead must wait. the united nations so they are particularly concerned about getting aid into north—west syria, already ravaged after years of conflict, and

there are warnings from the charity unicef that thousands of children may have been killed. but rescuers have today pulled out a newborn baby, born under the rubble, the sole survivor of her family. our chief international correspondent lyse doucet reports. layer upon layer of psyllium cement. entire streets smashed in this seismic shock. layer upon layer of crises. this country broken by more than a decade of war. eight people living on so little. now even that little is lost. buried in the struggle. —— a people. and then at this moment, a newborn baby pulled from the ruins. even more, her umbilical cord had to be cut from her mother, her dead mother. today

pulling survivors to safety. after air strikes by syrian and russian warplanes. this earthquake struck every side in this war, including the northern city of aleppo, under government control. every part of syria was already pulled down by poverty, 90% living with only enough to survive. the worst of the worst is in opposition areas. translation: people cannot afford to buy a loaf of bread, so how will they rebuild their homes? some have saved money to build a house or buy a car, they were all destroyed by the earthquake. ngos are not offering any help. fix. earthquake. ngos are not offering an hel. �* ., ., ., earthquake. ngos are not offering an hel. ., ., ., ., any help. a nation reeling from a natural disaster _ any help. a nation reeling from a natural disaster is _ any help. a nation reeling from a natural disaster is also _ any help. a nation reeling from a natural disaster is also a - any help. a nation reeling from a natural disaster is also a politicalj natural disaster is also a political quagmire. getting aid to syria means crossing front lines. but in this brutal war, crossing front lines. but in this brutalwar, even crossing front lines. but in this brutal war, even aid has always been weaponised. and in the midst of all

this, it is even harder. lyse doucet, bbc news. let's speak again to our middle east correspondent anna foster, who was one of the firstjournalists to reach the epicentre in marash. you've had a difficult journey just to get there. really distressing images we have been seen. it is clear people need a lot more help. how hard will it be to get the rescue teams and aid in? it will be incredibly difficult, because the roads do not have enough space, enough capacity, for the sheer numbers of people that they need. the rescue teams, the equipment, the medics, and believe me, they needed. so many blocks in this city have been completely destroyed. let me show you just one, this gives you an idea. this was a nine story apartment building with four flats on each floor. the reason they are digging here with this big earth mover is that they know that sadly nobody survived. they think there might be bodies still in the

struggle, but they know there are not any survivors. and just here, you can see this group of men who are standing watching. this was their building. this was where they lived. and they are now watching the debris, their possessions, their lives, be dragged away. and tonight, it is bitterly cold. you can see how windy it is. it is around 0 celsius, and that when doubling wind makes it feel even colder. perhaps you can see just at the end hear one of the fire is burning notjust throughout the city but throughout cities across southern turkey. it is the only way that some people have to keep warm. in some cases, they are pulling things out of the struggle, things that were their furniture, their possessions, and burning them to keep warm. for these people, there's no end in sight to their misery. there's no end in sight to their mise . �* ., .,, ., there's no end in sight to their mise . �* ., ., , misery. anna foster, were to very latest from — misery. anna foster, were to very latest from southern _ misery. anna foster, were to very latest from southern turkey, - latest from southern turkey, thank you. to get the latest on the situation in turkey and syria, you can find updates, news and analysis on bbc news online, that's bbc.co.uk/news,

and by using the bbc news app. one of the uk's most prolific sex offenders, the former metropolitan police officer david carrick, has been given 36 life sentences, and told he will serve a minimum term of 32 years. he'd pleaded guilty to 85 offences, including multiple rapes, against 12 victims while serving as a met officer. the judge at southwark crown court said carrick had used his job to take "monstrous advantage" of women. june kelly reports. what is it you're searching for? articles relating to the offences. david carrick, the long—serving police officer, finally where he should be, under arrest. there is no necessity. yes, there is. even here, the master manipulator was trying to take control... i've only been a police officer for 20 years. ..stressing his years in the service. this was 2021, after one of the women he attacked reported him. today david carrick was given a minimum jail term of 32 years. behind a public appearance of propriety and trustworthiness,

you took monstrous advantage of women drawn into intimate relationships with you. you brazenly raped and sexually assaulted many women, some you barely knew. you behaved as if you were untouchable. in the dock, carrick showed no reaction. some of his victims were sitting behind him, and one, a fellow met officer, told us she was relieved at the length of the sentence. he has had many years of doing what he shouldn't be doing. he is a monster, and now he needs to pay. he is an ex police officer, which, in prison, is not something you want to be. and if he ever does come out, he will come out as an old man. from her boss, the new met commissioner, there was this. we had opportunities where warning signs were seen by the met, reports, allegations, and we didn't follow through on those, and that is why he was still a police officer when he shouldn't have been. so we have to repair the systemic failings. who do we report to when

the rapists are police? - the commissioner acknowledged that some women's trust in the police had been profoundly shaken. this was a protest outside court today. it was his local force in hertfordshire which brought david carrick to justice. we have had further women come forward with all the publicity with the case, and we're looking into those matters. i have absolutely no doubt that david carrick has committed further offences. within hours of carrick�*s sentencing, the attorney general�*s office confirmed that it would consider whether the case should go to the court of appeal, following complaints that the sentence should that the sentence should have been longer. the women david carrick once controlled have now taken control of his future. with their terrible testimonies, they put him behind bars and stopped the rapist in uniform from harming any more women. june kelly, bbc news, southwark crown court.

police say they believe... the headteacher of epsom college was shot dead by her husband before he killed their young daughter and took his own life. george pattison is thought to have killed his wife emma and seven—year—old lettie at the family home in the grounds of the private school. the bbc understands mrs pattison telephoned a family member in distress, late on saturday evening. our special correspondent lucy manning reports. emma pattison, an inspirational headteacher and educator, shaping the lives of thousands of students. yet position and accomplishments no protection — at the top of her profession in one of the country's leading schools, and yet, another victim of male domestic violence. shot dead by her husband george, who also killed their daughter, seven—year—old lettie. who knows what her life achievements would have been? we now know a lot more about what happened here.

late on saturday night, emma pattison called a relative in distress, but by the time they arrived, the family were already dead. george pattison owned a gun, licensed and registered, and that licence was rechecked over the phone by surrey police just three days before the family were killed. because the pattisons had moved into a new house at the school, the gun license had to be updated. the police watchdog is now investigating. in a recent interview with her pupils, she spoke about some of the challenges herfamily faced. it has been a big change, we have had to move house, we are but a dog, my husband is a newjob which wasn't meant to happen but dead. —— has a newjob which wasn't meant to happen but did.

those who worked with her previously remembered her as a champion forfemale education. she, in some ways, embodied what it is to be a great leader. she was courageous, compassionate, but was just the most human, exciting, inspirational person to be around. i think emma's loss is something thatjust reminds us that it doesn't matter how successful or accomplished or brilliant you are as a woman, you are only as safe as your male partner allows you to be. tonight, epsom college announced the school would shut for the rest of the week after they learned the incredibly distressing details of how mrs pattison died. a mother and her daughter, both with so much still to give, taken from them. lucy manning, bbc news. the time is 6.20 our top story this evening — after the earthquake enters a second night in freezing temperatures, more

than 6000 people have already died, many more are still trapped. we will be hearing from this medical charity in the uk as they prepare to send help and supplies to victims of the earthquake. can wrexham keep the dream alive? we're going to have the latest from bramall lane as the non—league side look to beat sheffield united to reach the fa cup fifth round. bp has become the latest energy giant to report record annual profits. the company made a record £23 billion last year, partly due to the surge in oil and gas prices caused by the war in ukraine. our business editor simonjack is here with more. simon. as you say, bp recorded the highest profit in its history, more than doubling from 2021 to £23 billion

last year, unions and charities collect obscene and scandalous during a cost—of—living crisis. why such huge profits? take a look. this is a chart of the price of gas, already rising at the end of last year, as the world recovered from covid. when supply from mathers exporter russia was either shut off or shunned after it invaded ukraine —— massive exporter. bp announced a secure future supply, an original target to cut by 40% by 2030 would be scaled back to a cut of 25%. as well as drilling for more fossil fuels, bp increased investment in low or zero carbon energy coming they wouldn't do an interview this afternoon so we asked energy expert and former bp executive what they were trying to do. fine and former bp executive what they were trying to do.— were trying to do. one of the reasons for— were trying to do. one of the reasons for the _ were trying to do. one of the reasons for the crisis - were trying to do. one of the reasons for the crisis last - were trying to do. one of the | reasons for the crisis last year were trying to do. one of the - reasons for the crisis last year was there _ reasons for the crisis last year was there had — reasons for the crisis last year was there had been insufficient investment in oil and gas, and they now realise — investment in oil and gas, and they now realise they have got to do

offset the cost of new investments and dismantling old oil and gas platforms against those uk profits. one group that are happy are shareholders who share £12 billion in payouts, more than the company invested in renewables last year. gas prices have fallen sharply in recent months and hopefully we will not see the extreme prices we think the aca, but bp warned today it didn't think gas prices would return to historical levels until 2035. the prime minister has announced the creation of the department for energy security and net zero, one of four new ministries created as part of a shake—up in how whitehall is run. rishi sunak has also re—shuffled his cabinet, including promoting greg hands to the role of conservative party chairman. our political editor chris mason is here. so what's been happening? today was primarily about rewiring the structures of government, none of this is an instantly exciting topic but it can make a difference

topic but it can make a difference to how even whether gutman works. there is a new department for energy security and necklace era, here is the man in charge, grant chaps. who else? it is all a bit back in the future, there was a department called energy and climate change until it was scrapped, which labour have been quick to point out. there is a new department for science, innovation and technology, led by michelle donnellan, business and trade brought together in the same department of the lucy fraser will lead the department for culture, media and sport, media and sport. this man is the new conservative party chairman, he is replacing nadhim zahawi, he was sacked after that row about his taxes. none of this is anything to do with the future of dominic wrap, he is facing allegations of bullying —— dominic

wrap. a staffing issue still loitering for the prime minister to resolve while wrap. a staffing issue still loitering for the prime minister to resolve while a lawyer crawls over all of the details. we have had a day of reshuffling but potentially more reshuffling to come. civil servants have announced a new strike date in an ongoing pay dispute, 100,000 members of the pcs union are planning to stay strike action on the 15th of march, the date will coincide with the budget. the father of a teenager, who died after becoming morbidly obese, has been found guilty of gross negligence manslaughter. kaylea titford was was found at home in newtown in mid wales in conditions said to be "unfit for any animal" in october 2020. our wales correspondent hywel griffith reports. awarning, a warning, this report contains distressing details. a funny, cheeky teenager — this was kaylea titford at a pop concert a few years before her death. a spinal condition meant she needed a wheelchair but she was fiercely independent until, when the

pandemic came, she, like everyone else, was forced to stay at home. that is where she remained, immobile in bed, for over six months. her weight grew to nearly 23 stone. her room was a dumping ground, her sheets soiled, there were flies and maggots. the conditions in which kaylea was found were abhorrent and indicated shocking neglect over a prolonged period of time. in court, kaylea's father alan titford said he was lazy and had let his daughter live in filthy conditions. but he tried to blame his partner, her mother, for her death. sarah lloyd—jones had already admitted gross negligence manslaughter. when the country went into lockdown and kaylea's school shut down, she was cut off from the outside world and all the help she used to receive. instead she became entirely dependent on her parents, who, over the next six months, allowed their daughter to become so unhealthy and overweight that in the end her body simply couldn't cope any more.

back in position again, quick as you can. those who knew kaylea have struggled to take in what happened to her. steve used to coach her in wheelchair basketball, he remembers a spirited, active girl who could have gone on the paralympics. i really couldn't get my head around it. could we have done more? you know, iwish we had, i wish we had tried harder, i wish we had. but, you know, after a time, you think, well, i did everything i could. there is now a review into whether the authorities did everything they could to protect kaylea. how could you let that happen to your daughter? herfather and kaylea's mother will both be sentenced next month. the bbc chairman has told a committee of mps that he regrets causing embarrassment to the bbc following questions over his

appointment. richard sharpe also told the culture select committee, he spoke to borisjohnson after applying for thejob, but he spoke to borisjohnson after applying for the job, but before he spoke to borisjohnson after applying for thejob, but before he was given it. he says they discussed how a mutual contact sam blyth wanted to offer financial help to mr johnson and he had referred sam blyth to the cabinet secretary to avoid any conflict—of—interest, mr sharp said he followed due process. i informed the prime minister that mr blyth wanted to meet the cabinet secretary to see that he could help the prime minister. and the implication of that is whether he could help him financially? definitely. in effect, without giving him financial advice, you had discussed his finances, or rather the fact that somebody wanted to help him with his finances, with the prime minister? that's correct, isn't it? correct. and back to the devastating earthquake in turkey and syria. these pictures, before and after it struck, give a glimpse of the destruction wreaked in so many cities, towns, and villages across the region. here in the uk, people have been waiting anxiously for news of relatives,
