alive from the rubble for the death toll and turkey and syria preachers. 23000. ah, i'm a hilda muhammad, welcome to the program. the u. s. military has shut down an unidentified object over alaska, on orders from president joe biden. officials say it's around the size of a car and posed a threat to civilian flights. the u. s. air force down a suspected chinese spy balloon last week. the white house says it's not clear where the latest object came from. in the case today, we're talking about an object again, we don't know a lot about it but, but that at its altitude, represented a potential threat to the safety of flying customers, civil air traffic based on your broad and deep experience. i think my own or

have flown this thing in the air. i have no idea where we are. so washington correspondent, send me some kind what we know about this object. so thought, so really what we know at this point is what white house and pentagon officials have revealed of what they've told us so far is that a us fighter jet shot down this high altitude object at around 1 45 pm eastern time on friday. they told us that it was shot down off the coast of alaska, near the border with canada, and that it was down to over ice. so frozen waters. they also said the recovery efforts are underway. they indicated that because it was shot down over frozen waters. it might make recovery efforts just a little bit easier, and this object had crossed over usaa into u. s. air space, rather when it was shot down. and they also revealed that this object was flying around 40000 feet and it was deemed

a reasonable risk to civilian aircraft that it becomes because some civilian aircraft does fly around that altitude. and that's why the pentagon said that this decision was taken to a shoot down this object. it was originally detected on thursday, and that according to the pentagon, they sent a fighter jets to try to assess what this object was. and it was deemed that it was an unmanned object. it was the orders were then given, we don't when by the president to shoot it down. and f 22 fighter jet shot it down . and president, by himself hasn't said much only that this mission was a success. right. so there are there any indications about what this object might have been useful and also where it came from. we don't know any of that yet. we're hill and officials will have been very careful in talking about this incident. they said, we don't know who or what is behind this object. and they haven't told us much more about the provenance of it. but the pentagon and the white house made clear that

there are some big differences to that chinese spy balloon incident. a you mentioned in the lead, in 1st and foremost, this object they said is much smaller. so they say that the size of a small car, it is not the same shape either beef. beyond that officials really have been tight lipped about what they know they will be working on recovery, as i said. so we might get more information soon. but of course, people are making immediate comparisons to that chinese spy balloon incident because across the entire country and captured much of the countries attention. and pentagon is still analyzing the debris of that chinese spy, berlin, as they call it that was shot down. but at this point, as i said, we don't know any more about what this object was or who or what was behind it. so, so looking at the bigger picture than what do incidents like this mean for us national security? so the pendant was actually asked that question and in a press conference earlier on friday, and the question was, you know,

has the u. s. now essentially reassess national security with that? a chinese my balloon incident this object and the spokesperson said that really anything that is considered a threat to national security, of course, is dealt with. and that this particular object was deemed a risk to civilian aircraft, as i said. but the reality is where he lived, that the country is on high alert, and there are also political considerations at play. here. u. s. president biden has been heavily criticized particularly by republicans who accuse him of allowing the chinese spy balloon to fly over the country over sensitive military sites. they've called him greek in the face of china. so i think it is safe to say that that pressure, at least somewhat informed of the decision to shoot down this object off the coast of alaska. but we still, as i said, need to find out more information about what the object was and what was behind it . that's that the deputies send me some escondido in washington d. c. thank you so much. the number of people killed in the earthquakes and

turkey and syria has now passed 23000 rescue teams. and so trying to free those rec, trapped under the rubble hopes of finding most of i was all fading, an emergency crews have saved several more victims in turkey's i time province. d w, witnessed a german team rescue a woman in an operation lasting more than 2 days. deep under the rubble trapped beneath layers of concrete, here into town of carrie con, is 40 year old zane up. she's been trapped under this debris for days now. but there is hope she will make it out alive. a complex mission to free her is underway, involving a team of german rescuers and using drills and specials equipment. they've been able to cut a path to her. oh.
