9:06 am
surely we have license to learn what outcomes to examine the model all got a bought from this point forward. we will try to see this as a chance to start over good. it will depend on the you shall, we will try our best to emerge from this better. that of is no muster. and then get on the upper just will you be taken. talk mom's good at the ruins of his skin to one's hospital. mesa isn't ready to stange over yet. she'll be waiting for news about her grandma, for as long as it takes. and she knows that things may get worse before they get better. r damon is the founder and president of the international network for aids relieve, and assistance. and earlier i asked her what her impression of the situation in adina is where she arrived yesterday. it's the sort of situation that still, even though as you mentioned there, it has been a week since the earthquake struck is very difficult for anyone who experienced it
9:07 am
. and those of us who are coming and trying to respond to it to really truly comprehend, look, i was a war correspondent with cnn for 17 years. a lot of people have compared this to a war zone. from my perspective, this is not a war zone. this is something else entirely, the sheer level of destruction that happened over the sheer expanse of space that it happened over is not anything that anyone, any organization in recent memory has had to cope with. and the situation on the ground is growing increasingly desperate for those who are waiting for any kind of news from their loved ones. and for those of us who are trying to respond to the overwhelming needs that exist, we're talking about millions of, or at the same time, who had their lives up and good. and we've been going out into the field trying to reach the children that we used to work with trying to reach other families doing very specific. i targeted humanitarian distribution. and you see this sort of shock
9:08 am
on people's faces. and it's almost as if their expressions have been frozen in time . there is a sort of side to the way that their faces would have normally expressed an emotion . and right now it's shock. it's trauma, it's sorrow, it's anguish. and then it's confusion. i mean, where does this country go from here? where does this go from here with it? do you think in light of the abyss, unprecedented a event really in terms of scale is the international community a doing enough? yeah, in a nutshell, no, i would have to say you do have a significant and very heart warming flood an outpouring of support for turkey. we have seen international crews from all over the world, sending in their rescue teams. we've seen 8 coming into turkey from land,
9:09 am
from see from air turkey's response has been quite innovative. in some cases they've transformed fairies into moving a hospitals. they put universities in person education on hulu, and they are using university space as borne with worries. but that's on the torture side of the border. let's talk about what's happening. right, northwestern syria, you do not see any of that. the you on has barely been able to get a few trucks across that border. get an aide into that area is so long down in politics. it's almost despicable and all that being said and done though, despite this outpouring of a that we're seeing into turkey because of the sure scale of it, it's not enough. look, i was out in the field all day yesterday. we have teams here. there are countless families who are not receiving the aid that they need, and that's inside a turkey. again, in northwestern syria, everything is needed. everyone needs ever been. even here,
9:10 am
you have families who are unable to access distribution points. you have people scattered over in the area that are so bad that aid is not reaching them. and then you have specifically what we do not are focusing on which is targeted distributions to these families that either are not accessing aid or that have very specific needs. and then there are things that aren't generally an aide basket. we're talking about, you know, clean undergarments. we're talking about battery acts and flashing lights because power keeps now and everyone wants to be able to stay in touch with their loved ones. and let me just go back to what northwestern syria for a moment. there a lack of assistance, a lack of heavy machinery, a lack of diesel to run the heavy machinery that was inside the country. a lack of humanitarian assistance, being able to cross across the border not is killing people. alabama that in atlanta, thank you very much. i'll talk his president reggie
9:11 am
tab at, along as been facing growing criticism over his response to the quick disaster that comes at a time when he's gearing up for a re election campaign. but now, doubts are being caused on whether the vote will even take place as expected and made on that in a moment. but 1st, this report ratchet tie up. our to one has dominated turkey for 20 years. first, as prime minister. then as president with increased powers at a one was already facing a tough reelection campaign, with his approval rating sagging over his handling of the country's economy. and now he's also being criticized over the government's response to the earthquake disaster at o. one has admitted that the initial rescue effort was too slow. elevate debt if that certainly there were shortcomings that is clear, it also the it is impossible to be prepared to deal with a disaster like this,
9:12 am
newton named but turkey is no stranger to earthquakes. after the 1999 disaster that killed more than 17000 people, the government implemented what's known as the earthquake tax to bolster emergency services. but how the more than 4000000000 euros has actually been spent has never been made public. while edwin was visiting the disaster zone after last week's quake, turkish authorities restricted access to twitter per several hours, allegedly, to stop this information. opposition leaders said the move threatened to hinder, volunteer rescue and humanitarian work. at one lashed out at what he called dishonest people who he said were trying to use the crisis for political gain will don't em billick better right now is the time for unity on the sma. good him, it is a time for solidarity honda,
9:13 am
but it in times like these it is not appropriate to take part in negative campaigning solely to serve political interests. williamses company alert the opposition newspaper, cham hurry, it has pointed out that the 1999 earthquake ushered in a new era in turkish politics and said the 2023 disaster could do the same. for more on this, when i jump back on, i can he said of turkish service that i can add on and is government facing a lot of critic criticism over this? and can you give us a more details about it? well, a lot of people say that this criticism is right. i to, i was vested last year, was an anchor, a part of last week. i was an anchor and talk to a lot of politicians over there. and they said that the government didn't react very quick. after the earthquake and there were sort of a sort of needs that you, many, tara needs, but for, for sure. they were having machines for needs to pull out the people out of the
9:14 am
rebels. you know, so therefore the critics are loud and the critics are, of course, relevant in that case and what the reaction time is one thing, but add one has been in power for 20 years. now. does he have a large share of the responsibility for the devastation that has been in quite a way? yes gap because them they had the heavy a fake, a 999. there was a major example that the buildings and turkey are not that proof for earthquakes. and in the past 21 years and has government get plenty of time just to build up a buildings who are earthquake proof. but they didn't. the low cost in the construction work is a very, very hard so therefore, unfortunately the money was more important than the life of the people.
9:15 am
unfortunately, corruption, apparently also definitely corruption as one of the major issues that we faced in turkey. therefore, as i said, people want to keep money and build the buildings the like, well, you can say like putting unfortunately now do you think this will damage him out on the upcoming election and may get the politicians who i'm talking to last week? they say yes, but i'm not sure because the, the longer time will facing the days for the elections, the more heavy and the more powerful and add one could be because he can present himself as the leader as the as the man who can, who can face with this kind of catastrophe, you know, but i'm not very sure we talked about the election may 14th all the date. there was, there is in the air right now, but it could be that i will post pound for
9:16 am
a future date because it's very important for him to get out of this crisis in a very hard and strong way. and i'm not sure whether he can do it or not. you mentioned earlier that of course, what needs to be done now is that the, the rebuild needs to be a more solid and more geared towards a possible earthquakes. briefly if you can, you think it will happen? no, i don't think so. as i mentioned before, the corruption is very highly. i mean, if we don't see any kind of charging for some construction companies, then definitely we will not find in the future earthquake proof buildings, especially government earthquake proof buildings. i can help you w circus service. thank you very much. ok. that's a look now at some of the other stories making headlines today. u. s. defense

9:19 am
on the front lines, there have been reports that ukrainian soldiers are nearly running out of bullets and some nato countries sake there cupboards are bare. the fact is no one expected to see a shooting war in europe ever again with thousands and thousands of rounds of bullets . sheldon missiles used every day by both sides, stockpiles of ammunition in nato countries. and more crucially, production capacity in the weapons industry had declined for years. in favor of more sophisticated equipment is or unfortunate. but that's what it is, and it's the result of just in time just enough our way of looking at our economy. it's not a situation that can quickly be reversed. western countries have been learning the hard way that it's a one of those problems when he does it where it doesn't suffice to throw money to problem. camille grant spent 6 years in charge of defense investment at nato. he says, the current ammunition shortage could not have been foreseen, but admits. now it's
9:20 am
a race against time to fulfill ukraine's urgent needs and replenish nato allies. domestic stockpiles. what is slowing us down as a bureaucracy? is the fact that we don't have enough skilled workers? is it the fact that the supply chains or not what they should be, that we don't have the stock bards of critical components? the answer, he says, is, all of the above nato allies are scaling up as fast as they can. the us says it will increase production of artillery shells by 500 percent over the next 2 years. germany's rind metal says it's hiring more people and may build a new production plant. camille graham says at this same time, country should be looking at how to tap into other sources of ammunition components . germany as it, our technicians are metered, shunned with a lot of small companies producing a hunting ammunition spots ammunition of course, a large portion of that is not seats to do strictly military ammunition,
9:21 am
but they can certainly contribute to the supply chain earlier in the conflict. it was believed russia stock piles were vast. but now the pentagon estimates moscow supply of modern ammunition will run out within months. ah, some small susan can football. the biggest game of the year went down to the final seconds before the kansas city chiefs beat the philadelphia eagles in the super bowl match featured to talk, quarterbacks following the football, including the eagles. jalen hurts, who found a j brown for a touchdown. that helped push philadelphia to a lead at the hot spot hertz rival patrick holmes. thought his team brought his scene back to even late in the game with his passes and runs even on a bath and cope with 8 seconds remaining. the chief school, the winning field go. holmes won his 2nd super bowl already in just 5 seasons. is

9:23 am
the final 2nd was definitely an exciting. so now it was said to be a historic match up of quarterbacks remind us of why that was and, and how they fed. well, this is the 1st time and it's 100 year history has seen 2 black quarterback start the super bowl. we've had black quarterback lead teams to the super bowl even when the super bowl. but this was the 1st time to black quarterbacks one had in the super bowl critics a bit that's taken far too long for the n a l 2. and that's half considering that the n a 1100 years old and the sewer bill started in 967. so it's been a while, but it was definitely and story day in that regard. and it was the 1st time the 2 brothers from the same family played on either team the counties, travis kelsey from the city, cheese and,
