>> hello and welcome to our viewers here in the united states, and all around the, world i'm rosemary church. just ahead on cnn newsroom, the window for miracles is closing in turkey and syria's quake zone, as search and rescue efforts will soon become a recovery mission. plus, -- >> this is a blue collar -- to rebuild america. >> after the state of the union address, president biden takes this economic message on the road, and later, a massive military parade in north korea that highlighted numerous ballistic missiles thought to be capable of hitting the united states. >> live from cnn center, this is cnn newsroom with rosemary church. >> it is 10 am across turkey
11:02 pm
and syria where the death toll from the worst earthquake in a century has climbed to nearly 16,000. in northern syria, there are huge mountains of rubble where residential buildings once stood. damascus as close to 300,000 people have been forced from their homes, and that is only in the parts of syria under government control. turkey has restored twitter surface in the quake zone after it was restricted for most of the day wednesday, rescue workers and aid groups have been relying on the social media battle to coordinate their efforts. the government detained nearly two dozen people, but tweets criticizing the response to the disaster, with each day passing, rescue workers are finding fewer survivors and more victims from the debris. cnn's nick paton walsh begins our coverage. >> it is hard to imagine how
11:03 pm
this rubble gave anyone hope. yet, for 50 or so hours after the quake, it almost did. when it stopped, when the chances of surviving ebbed, bodies near the epicenter here kept coming. the paralysis of grief, when these two parents see their eight year old daughter's -- on stained. another four year old girl with no parents here to bury her. another father, simply walking behind. it has been constant and tense activity trying to save lives, but we are sadly now into a window where so many of the ambulances that arrived will likely be taking away people who perished. >> up high, hope is strongest. digging furiously by hand here. on the other side of the rubble, medics rushed forward, growing furious on how nothing here came sooner. >> [screaming]
11:04 pm
[speaking non-english] >> this stretches here, too late, an eternity. another body pulled out, a syrian refugee in his 40s, as the excavations gain pace. an audience of agony watches, waits. >> [speaking non-english] [sirens] >> [speaking non-english] >> [crying] >> a hospital volunteer told us over 300 bodies here are unclean in the more. the numbers rising fast along with tempers. it is chaos, and whether any government could have moved fast there was the question dogging turkish president recep tayyip erdoan when he flew into town briefly. this stadium suddenly home to possibly thousands, who knows how long. many refugees from syria now perhaps losing their homes for the third time. that's nearly as many years as some have been alive.
11:05 pm
they have nothing but the steep generosity to rely on, which for now, means 12 people in this tent. >> [speaking non-english] >> [speaking non-english] >> for now, the question is what they could have done to not arrive for so many into meteor too late. nick paton walsh, cnn, kahramanmaras, turkey. >> joining me now from
11:06 pm
amsterdam in the netherlands -- is a spokesperson for doctors without borders. thank you so much for talking with us. >> thank you very much for this, opportunity. >> now tragically the death toll is rising, now at nearly 16, 000, but rescue efforts continue in the hope that more survivors can be pulled from the rubble. what are your doctors telling you about conditions on the ground, and the injured patients they are encountering? >> yes. so, i'm in touch with our colleagues in the western aleppo side, they are talking about a very dire situation. let's not forget, this area was in a conflict for the last 12 years. so underneath the medical
11:07 pm
sector is struggling and suffering from a severe problem. we are trying as doctors without borders to work with our partners, and support medical facilities to deliver medical supplies to provide training and increase the capacity of these hospitals to provide some other operational materials. also to help them do their job. one of the main problems is the lack of access to this area, the main access in this area is called -- dissing monetary in corridor is organized and regulated through security consult mechanism that is making it a bit not easy to deliver support. we call ourselves doctor without borders, and we act in this sense, but unfortunately there are many borders we are trying to overcome. >> yes, totally understand, that of, course as you mention, the problem is getting access, aid is arriving, but the leader
11:08 pm
of syria has asked that aid be sent to damascus. there's a lot of politics involved, here as you say, you know, there has been war in the region, so people are dealing with so much on top of it they have to deal with this. so, how worried are you that any aid sent to damascus will not find its ways to those most in need in syria? >> yes. so, as i am myself syrian, i also have family inside syria, and, controlling -- area in the government control, area many the positions -- but as we see, the syrian population has one whole group of civilians that need and require our support. what we are trying to do in these moments, trying to find different ways, and different accesses to deliver this aid to the people in need. the situation is really dire.
11:09 pm
in both government control area, and the opposition control, area besides the control area, there is a lack of, fuel the situation is quite difficult, the access to medical health is very complicated. what is even harder, is telling me, like my son, i don't know what may happen tomorrow, you, know for the last 12 years, every year we hope this will be the last one, and, february in march, the next month will be the 12th year and actually this is making it even harder and more complicated. for us as a neutral independent medical organization, we are trying to do our best and to deliver the aid to the people, whether it does not matter and which access, and the way our main right now to reach the people in need in syria. >> yes, that is the great value of doctors without borders.
11:10 pm
there are no politics in that. it is about helping people identify the death toll climbs, hope is fading that more people will be found alive. but miracles have happened in the past how long they can people survive in these freezing conditions without access to food or water? what point do they decide that this becomes a recovery mission? >> indeed. unfortunately, the time is not easy, it is already going quite fast, and till now, the eight and three northwest syria from -- which is the corridor as we, said it is quite limited, i hear from the -- one egyptian rescue team arrived through -- turkey, but also the corridor was not being accessible. for us, what we are -- trying to do to parts, let's
11:11 pm
say, with first focus on life saving activities through supporting the medical facilities, supported by doctors without borders. when you're trying to provide them with fuel or electricity and heating, fuel for -- trying to provide them with some medical supplied so there can be in life-saving, but at the same time i briefly see colleagues inside, and in aleppo or doing their best to also reach the reception centers, the support of those people who are in thousands of homeless people, already i think i hear the reports mentioning some refugees in turkey for example, being dismissed for the third time, and some displaced, 20 times in the last 12 years. like, more than 10 to 15 times inside syria, and even some of them inside turkey. but, also western muslim aleppo, and they were in clusters of
11:12 pm
camps that -- -- were river, and -- that dam is collapsing. it is not like a big one but the -- population builds it by themself, now they were saying the villages and the internet anne shelters are flooded in this area. so, i also want to report on this. so we are also trying to provide packets, heating materials, and items like hygiene kits, to prevent any further medical casualties, and problems. >> as we describe, this is tragedy upon tragedy, thank you so much for talking with us. we do appreciate it. all the work you organization this. >> thank you very much. >> thank you.
11:13 pm
and, if you are looking for information on how to help earthquake survivors, you can go to cnn.com slash impact. you will find a list of organizations working on rescue and relief efforts. again that is cnn.com slash impact. president joe biden is reaffirming u.s. support for ukraine as the war over the years nears the one year mark, but some republican lawmakers have been critical about the money being sent to ukraine, sparking fears they could pull back funding now that republicans control the house. here is how mr. biden responded. >> if these guys do not want to help ukraine, i get it, they want to do that, but what are they going to do when ukraine also -- or in the belarus or anywhere else? >> so is it open-ended for now? >> yes, it is. there is no way that putin is going to be able to --
11:14 pm
he has already lost ukraine. the idea that he is ever going to be able to -- hear is a thought, he thought that if he invaded ukraine, first of all -- russian speakers they say, come on in. secondly, he thought what would happen is nato would collapse, nato would not be -- then, he thought, down the line, none of that is happening. >> ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyy has been invited to participate in the eu summit in brussels, just one day after surprise if visits to london and paris. cnn's clare sebastian is following developments for us. she joins us now live from london. good morning, to clare, so presidents a lynskey receive positive responses from the uk and france in terms of continued weapons support. what can he expect at the eu summit? >> you know, rosemary, i think we will hear it continue expressions of support, and likely open-ended as president biden was saying, there, yes, extremely positive responses in the uk, and very much met with
11:15 pm
applause and red carpet treatment in downing street. but, this was an unequivocal pitch for more weapons, and that particular fighter planes. take a listen to some of his words when he addressed the uk parliament. >> i appeal to you, and the world for simple and up most important words. combat aircrafts for ukraine. wings, for freedom. >> well, he did get some progress on this, this trip came alongside an announcement from the uk that they would be expanding their training program for ukrainian forces, to include pilots and marines, stopping short of promising those fighter jets that president zelenskyy was so clear that he felt he needed to get russia out of ukraine. but, a spokesman for prime minister on dining street said, the united kingdom is actively
11:16 pm
looking at options for this. he then went to paris, continued expressions for support there, and when speaking if he doesn't need address the eu this morning, we can expect to hear again this unequivocal pitch for more weapons, fighter planes, longer range missiles, but this is also about the longer term of ukraine. we forget this is a country that has in the past year got candidate status, he says he very much wants this country to take its place in the western international order, the, eu nato, all of that. so i think we can hear that along those longer term expressions of integration with the european union. rosemary? >> all right, our thanks to color sebastián for that live report. and, a closer look now at ukraine's renewed push for western fighter jets, and how it could make a major difference in driving back russian forces. fred pleitgen has our report. >> ukrainian towns getting decimated by russian flower power every day. this is the east of the country,
11:17 pm
almost completely reduced to rubble. around bakhmut, combat and close quarters as ukrainian troops try to prevent russian fighters of the wagner private military company from encircling the city. the wagner bus, so confident in his own private air force that he took to the skies and challenged ukraine's president to a dogfight. tomorrow, i am boarding a mig-29, if you desire, we will meet in the sky. ukraine's president volodymyr zelenskyy is in europe, visiting the parliament, pleading for western combat jets. >> in britain, it is an ai r
11:18 pm
force pilot. in ukraine, today, every air force pilot is the king. >> despite being much smaller and -- they're still very much in the fight in the skies. they're using planes, and having trouble maintaining the soviet fleet. even a small number of western fighters would make a big difference, says ukraine's air force spokesman. we can start with a few squadrons, he says, each with 12 jets. we have 1 to 2 or more squadrons, and would be a first step for pilots traits in addition. it would be for combat missions in different directions. the u.s. has given the ukrainians some air launched anti-radiation missiles called harm but kyiv's is that it would be much better if launched from western jets. the missiles are not as efficient as if they were used from american or other allied aircrafts, the spokesman says. the functionality is restricted, the range is shorter, and the efficiency is lower. ukrainian officials say that they want u.s. made f-16s, but so far president biden has ruled out giving kyiv combat aircrafts.
11:19 pm
the uk says it will soon start training ukrainian pilots, and ukrainian officials tell cnn that they are confident they will get jets, just like eventually they got the main battle tanks that they requested. we would like help as soon as possible, like yesterday, he says. our partners say that it will come tomorrow. the space between yesterday and tomorrow is very important to us. ukraine's civilians remain in the crosshairs of russia's cannons, missiles, and jets. kyiv hopes for more western support to start beating the back. >> fred pleitgen, cnn, kyiv, ukraine. >> and still to come, the u.s. house is set to vote on whether to condemn the incident of the chinese balloon flying in u.s. airspace. more on washington's grievances with beijing just ahead. e you can save up to $150 a year on your energy bill? how? the lower the temp, the lower r your bill.

we needed it fixed right. we went to safelite.com. there's no one else we'd trust. their experts replaced our windshield, and recalibrated our car's advanced safety system. they focus on our safety... so we can focus on this little guy. >> singers: ♪ safelite repair, safelite replace. ♪ >> flash flood warnings are in effect for much of the area around new orleans as heavy storms with possible tornadoes pummel millions of people across the united states. storms ripped through an area near new orleans just a short while ago, in fact, officials say it multiple homes and injured at least three people. it happened after this video captured what looks to be a
11:24 pm
tornado in the area. tornado warnings and watches were issued across much of the south on wednesday, all a part of a storm system that stretches all the way to near the canadian border. so, let's bring in meteorologist -- what is the latest on the severe weather? >> we have had several severe weather reports, three being a -- hail over the last 24 hours, more to come, here and in the next 24. there is a cold front, we extending from new orleans to the ohio valley, pushing into the great lakes, behind it much colder air dealing with snowfall. we are still focusing in on that heavy rain threat, and not only the severe weather threat, but concerns across -- some areas have already picked up four inches. these are estimated rainfall amounts, want to come on top of that. not only that, but when that comes along with that area of
11:25 pm
low pressure. wind advisories through the ohio valley, wind gust can reach over 60 miles per hour, time and the cold air and of the storm on the back end. dealing with winter weather advisories, winter storm warnings for parts of eastern iowa, including cedar rapids where we could hit 3 to 6 inches of snowfall today. of course, that front rolls through, and behind, that much colder air. so holding on to that threat of severe weather, parts of the ohio valley, down into parts of the florida panhandle, rolling into thursday, as it continues to track further east, we hold on to that threat of damaging winds, isolated tornadoes with that. you will see the front slide eastward, areas highlighted in red indicating that threat of severe weather again for thursday, and rolling into parts of the carolinas as we get into friday. so, the same threats. rosemary? >> all right, many thanks for staying on top of all those details. appreciate it. well, in the coming hours, the u.s. house is set to vote on a
11:26 pm
resolution condemning china's use of a suspected spy balloon over u.s. territory. it is the latest in the dispute over the balloon which was shot down saturday prompting even nato to acknowledge there has been an increase in chinese surveillance activities globally. u.s. secretary of state anthony blinken addressed the matter on wednesday. >> senior administration officials are on the hill this week, and we already shared information with dozens of countries around the world, both from washington and -- we are doing so because the united states was not the only target as part of this program, which has violated the sovereignty of countries across continents. >> and, cnn's kristie lu stout joins me live from hong kong. good to see you, kristie, so president biden has said that u.s. china relations have not been damaged by this spy balloon incidents, what is beijing saying? >> well, you know, china has
11:27 pm
repeatedly called the u.s. shooting down the chinese balloon as an overreaction, what was interesting to see those comments from the u.s. president and interview news hour when he said that the u.s. were shutting down the chinese balloon did not make u.s. china relations worse. he's obviously trying to downplay the situation, but when you talk to china, watchers, analysts, they disagree. in fact, i want to show you this bit of analysis from -- csis who tells us this, quote, the relationship is just a very, very dark place. the two sides do not find some way to put a floor underneath, unquote. analysts point out u.s. china ties are under strain, and there is very little window of opportunity ahead to put the floor in the relationship to reset this. this is the annual legislative meeting, that china hosts, and china will be preoccupied with
11:28 pm
that, and they also point out that the reported planned visit to the u.s. house speaker kevin mccarthy to taiwan -- get in the way of any sort of reset and ties. china continues to insist, this balloon was a civilian aircraft that blew off course into the united states. the united states saying it is part of a spy craft, part of a broader surveillance program that spans continents with the pentagon adding has 100% certainty it was not just a weather balloon. back to you. >> all right, kristie lu stout, joining us for that report. still to come, the mission to rescue earthquake survivors grows, more urgent, three days after the disaster in turkey and syria. a live report from the region when we return.

11:33 pm
tens of thousands more are injured. turkey's president admits there were shortcomings in the government's response to the disaster, but insists the situation is now under control. bitter cold temperatures are slowing rescue efforts, and in changer survivors who are now stranded without shelter. syrian state media reports more than 300,000 people have been displaced in the country. so, we do want to head to istanbul, turkey now, to cnn's salma abdelaziz, so, salma, how are these rescue to recovery efforts going? >> well, in syria, it is being described as a crisis within a crisis within a crisis, rosemary. this is a country that has been in a civil conflict now for over a decade, nearly 12 years. that means any child under the age of 12 essentially in that country has been born into a war zone. not many of those traumatized children are suffering after the aftermath of an earthquake.
11:34 pm
take a look at that. >> this is no way to come into the world, first during an earthquake, thrust into a war, don't orphaned and alone. this newborn girl was found alive, her umbilical cord still attached to her dead mother's body. buried under the rubble of their home. this video shows the moments after rescue workers pulled her out of the ruins. we found the parents bodies lying next to each other, then we heard a faint sound, he says, we cleared the dust, and found the baby, still tied by her umbilical cord. so we cut it off, and sent her to hospital. the rest of -- immediate family lies in the back of this pick up truck, all that before they even knew she was alive. an entire generation of syrians
11:35 pm
has been born into war, now those traumatized children face yet another catastrophe. diplomatic efforts are underway to open a humanitarian corridor, but already there are concerns access is being politicized. the domestic government heavily sanctioned by the west insist it should be the sole coordinator. >> so if it happens to your country, or his country, it will be the same. without the control of the government, without the permission of the government, without approval from the government, this is -- very simple. >> but, few in rebel held areas places bombarded for u.s. by president -- believed the government that once leveled their neighborhoods would care to save them now, and the clock is ticking to find any survivors under hundreds of collapsed buildings.
11:36 pm
like -- this social media video shows her more than 36 hours after the quake, her little brother -- please, she says to the rescue workers, please help us. i will do anything if you could just help us. siblings are eventually extracted, and brought safely to their terrified parents. in another rare moment of triumph, an entire family is retrieved by emergency responders, just watch the crowd's reaction as they bring them out one by one, that, daughter, son, and syria, just surviving as a victory. when you look at that little enclave in those harrowing
11:37 pm
stories of survival and grief there, rosemary, what is important to remember is that aid has not reached that rebel held area. the one road that connects turkey to that area was damaged in the earthquake, we do understand now from officials that it has been repaired. we could start to see a trickling in as early as today, but it can't come soon enough. rosemary? >> right. thank you so much. incredible report from our salma abdelaziz, many thanks. well, missiles on a parade. north korea rolls out what is being called an unprecedented numbers of ballistic missiles thought to be capable of hitting the united states. we will have more on that in just a moment.

11:43 pm
commentator catherine joins me now from new york. she is also washington post opinion columnist. appreciate you being with us. >> great to be here. >> so, despite the many challenges this country has faced during the pandemic, including major supply chain issues, president biden said the state of the union is strong. his address tuesday night, is he right? >> certainly by a lot of measures, it looks that way. the economy, in any event, looks a lot stronger than i think a lot of people including myself -- you have a very strong job growth, if anything it looks like the labor market -- you have inflation still too high, but moderating, so not as bad as it was. you have fears of a recession that does not seem to materialize yet, does not mean it won't, things could still go awry particularly if there is some unwelcome shock like an escalation in the war in ukraine for example. you would not want for other
11:44 pm
reasons as well. but, you know, we may not be out of the woods yet, but it does look like the economy is doing much better than consumers at least voters seem to be willing to give the president credit for. >> yeah, it will be interesting to see how he delivers that message, and continues to make that home. so, how does the presidents economic plan stack up against what the gop are proposing as an alternative? >> i have some bones to pick with each of them, i would say, but at least president biden and the democrats seem to have some plans that most of the party agrees on, even if there are holdouts. with the republican party, it has been difficult to discern what exactly their objectives are. always they want lower taxes of course, but lately they have been beating the drum about producing deficit which they were not interested in pursuing
11:45 pm
when a republican was in the white house, but now that there is a democrat in the white house, the control congress, they're interested in getting -- of course, that is some intentions, -- >> so, what will likely happen with a debt ceiling? do you expect an agreement will be made before this country default on its -- i don't think there will be a lot of progress, but i'm worried there could be a lot of destruction in the form of the united states coming very close to, or even accidentally defaulting on its debt. now we have seen this -- before of course where there has been one party, the republicans holding out and refusing to essentially -- which means paying off bills, already incurred, that congress has committed to, and in the past they have been able to resolve it even if there was a very stressful period leading
11:46 pm
up to that resolution. i'm quite worried that this time around, you know, if the will not be that somewhat happy or -- resolution let's call it that. and, we could enter a period where the united states perhaps accidentally becomes unable to pay some of its bills, because they are locked in these negotiations, i really hope it does not come to, that as you say, it would be very damaging not only for the united states economy, but potentially for the global, economy and global financial markets, even the -- is suddenly u.s. that which is currently considered the safest of save assets turns out to be risky. we are not reliable borrowers -- >> president biden got under the skin of some republicans tuesday, and particularly marjorie taylor greene who called the president a liar when he suggested some in her party i should say, wanted to
11:47 pm
and social security and medicare entitlements. now that got him on record -- was it necessary? >> you know, to be clear, republicans have -- some republicans have floated the idea of cuts to these very popular programs, but for the most part they seem to have ruled it out. the leader of house republicans kevin mccarthy had himself basically ruled out this negotiating play, because it is quite unpopular. even if you look at the countries -- regard to those programs, probably eventually something will need to change, either in the funding mechanism, or the benefits, or however it's structured, it can't go indefinitely as it works now, even our trans. but, nobody wants to talk about, it is unpopular, so -- necessary changes that would be on the table. >> catherine, always a pleasure to have you, with us many
11:48 pm
thanks. >> thank you. >> north korea has been showing off its advanced intercontinental ballistic missiles, nearly a dozen were -- massive military parade marking the 75th anniversary of the army. only weeks after leader kim jong-un called for an exponential increase in his country's nuclear arsenal, the missiles were not the only thing being shown, it has been shown off state media also published images of the north korean leader's young daughter, some being described as beloved and cnn's paula hancocks is covering this for us. she joins us live from seoul. so, paula, what are the experts saying about the muscles on display, the parade, and of course the significance of the presidents of -- >> the main takeaway was the sheer number of the biggest intercontinental ballistic missiles that north korea has within its arsenal, that believe that --

there were 11 of them which rolled into pyongyang -- square for this nighttime parade. so, a significant number, now we have been hearing from kim jong-un, food that he wants a bigger and better nuclear arsenal. it certainly appears as though there hasn't been a fair bit of production of this particular icbm. now, another thing, the fact there does appear to be a mockup of a solid fuel icbm, as opposed to a liquid fuel. now what that means, it is a lot quicker to be able to launch this kind of solid fuel icbm, it is more mobile, you can move it, around and of course that means it is more difficult for the u.s. and south korea to be able to check. so, those are two key points they have taken away at this point. it has to be pointed out though, we only have still photos at this point, we do not have the footage of the parade itself. experts will be pointing over
11:50 pm
that to see if it gives any more indication of the capabilities, and also the intentions of kim jong-un. but as you mention, rosemary, -- military parades for the first time in north korea's history, we have been seeing this daughter who's believed to be called -- she is believed to be about it or nine years old, and she has been with her father at a number of military events since she was first debuted if you, like and first seen in public in november of last year. so certainly it is fueling speculation as to what exactly this means. does this mean she is being groomed to be a successor, and there are many different views about, this but the very fact she was at this military event is significant. and, as well as the wife, rosemary? >> all right, paula hancocks, joining us live from, so many thanks for that report. we will be right back.
