at frankfurt airport city managed by from waterloo ah ah, the sustainable news line from berlin, the death toll and the turkish and syrian earthquakes reaches more than 35000 un warrens. that number could double as more bodies are discovered. also on the program. the white house says there is no evidence of alien activity linked to mystery flying objects shot down in its air space. the us and china tree blame over

alleged spy balloons, and thousands rally against government plans to reform. 1 israel's judiciary, opponents say that proposals are a threat to democracy. ah armico fairly to our viewers on p b. s in the united states and all our route around the world. of course. welcome. more than 35000 people are now known to have been killed in the earthquakes which had turkey and syria. a week ago, survivors are still being pulled from the rubble, but as time passes, those successes are becoming exceptions. relief has been slow to reach affected areas in syria, and the united nations says the rescue phase of its mission there is coming to an end. focus will now shift to caring for people who've been made homeless. and there

is growing despair at the sheer scale of the humanitarian crisis. though we use you johan has been in the southern turkish province of had tie and she sent this report from the town of is kendall. ah, this is what's left of the state hospital. in the city of his kingdom, builds to save lives. it became a death trap. the building collapsed on patients. after the earthquake struck. one week later, rescued teams are still digging through the rattle, searching for survivors. if you can, can you give us any information about the person you have found? one? no, we couldn't find any id. a list of available mesa, high ellison's anxiously, whenever the rescue was announced, they found some one who grandmother was at the hospital when the quake hate mesa hasn't slept for days. she's been sitting here waiting, feeling helpless, kitchen,

driving. all. i don't know how many days have passed. i lost track of time until they only started looking for her. now, we're waiting here for her. i love my grandma very much. my number. my 2nd name is i sal. i was named after her me says cousin ali john says mismanagement by the local authorities contributed to the disaster. he shows me what the hospital looked like before it collapsed. the building was dilapidated for years, he says, unsafe, but no one did anything about it. you call us robin morgan, nickle mythology project. it was obvious that this building would collapse sooner or later even without an earthquake. but why of the kept using it until it became a tomb for every one inside. the scale of the destruction is overwhelming.

across the regions, thousands of buildings have collapsed and tire neighborhoods have been flattened and hundreds of thousands of people left homeless. maybe get him yearbook, we meet some of them in this makeshift camp and his candid on. it feels disorganized desperate families who was strangers a week ago or now forced to share a small tent was not much in it. so this could still very don't have enough tense, like it's so cold in sight. it doesn't warm up a lot of it. i have 2 kids for boy somewhere. and so we only have his join every time we're sharing one tent with 2 other families. jamara yet than i thought it's been raining. the kids are all sick and i have a small baby. please for god's sake to send us a tent young that have no help has come here at all. yes. billiard room yagmi, overreacting metal. i was a local governor. he's been sent here to lead the crisis response in the area,

90 percent of his team of volunteers, blood. i admit that the country's disaster response was too slow in the 1st days. but now he says everyone's pulling in the same direction. for one only with roger, the actually experienced a very big tragedy with which absolutely normal for those who are experiencing such a tragedy to feel darn but thinking want to complain with on the probably all, 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 rip it, i'm very sure we will try our best to emerge from this better. that of is, you know, muster and then gillen. yup. or just will you be taken talk, mom's good at the ruins of his skin to ones hospital mesa isn't ready to start over yet. she'll be waiting for news about her grandma for long as

it takes and she knows the teams may get worse before they get better. or jojo has been travelling across southern turkey. she is now in a donna and gave us her impressions a week after the earthquakes. well, to be honest, it is at times very difficult for me to describe what we witness here on the ground because the scale of the destruction and the scale of the grief is just so huge is very difficult to comprehend. like mesa and her family, many survivors have been waiting for days and nights next to collapsed buildings desperately waiting for their loved ones to be retrieved. we have seen how their hopes have slowly faded and many people just now want the chance to say their final goodbyes. we do still see miracle rescue stories on turkish television, but experts say that the chances of finding more survivors are now very, very slim. many buildings were so poorly constructed that they just collapsed into

very tiny pieces, leaving very few spaces for people to survive in. you know, the human body can only survive for so long without water and food. add to that, the freezing temperatures at night. we don't know how many people he had died of hypothermia under the rubble. so the initial rescue efforts in the 1st days are now changing into a giant operation to retrieve dead bodies and to remove the rubble. and this is a bit of reality. many people are now slowly, you know, understanding and trying to come to terms with the u. s, as there is no evidence of extra terrestrial activity after it's shot down a series of mysteries object over north america. the objects have deepened the diplomatic rift between china and the united states. however, washington accuses beijing of running a high altitude balloon program for intelligence gathering. the you asked, shocked out. another object near the canadian border on sunday. the 4th this month

. only the 1st has been officially linked to china, beijing denies it was used for spying, and accuses the us of flying high altitude balloons over china at least 10 times this year. and for more we can speak to the german marshal funds, asia program director, bonnie glazer. miss glazer going to see you again? so a lot of back and forth since the 1st balloon was spotted? where do we stand? what do we know? and more importantly, what do we not know at this point? well, i certainly think there's more we do not know, including the 3 other balloons that were shot down over alaska and canada, and michigan, and even the 1st balloon. they are still in the process of collecting the debris off of the floor of the ocean. so we, we don't know whether china's of balloon was sending a radio signals intelligence, for example,

live back to china. we don't know whether it was taking imagery and we don't know what these other balloons were intended for, nor do we know whether they had anything to do with china. the united states has denied sending any similar balloons over china. so now this has become a, i think, a contest of the what we call the blame game. and the u. s. and china are not really speaking in a diplomatic terms that are aimed at resolving this, this issue yet. there is an opportunity coming up a later this week at the moon of security conference, where secretary state blinking might be meeting according to some reports today with juan e, who's the, the former foreign minister. now a higher level stop diplomat in china. and if he does agree to meet with him,

that's an opportunity for both of them to speak directly to each other about their concerns, but also perhaps tamp down tensions and reschedule secretary blankets, trip to china. yeah. let's needed conversation to we had there are no, you know, chinese politics very well. let's look at the latest episode in this blame game. china saying that the us is actually sending spy balloons, a to chinese territory. the vine administration says that his government and his administration has never deployed any willows in china's aerospace, and that beijing's accusations are distraction tactics. what do you make of these claims? is that a likely scenario? well, the united states, as you said, a has denied that it is sent any kind of balloons over china. the united states does quite a bit of surveillance and reconnaissance around china, but not inside it's territorial airspace. so that's the distinction that the biden

administration is making. we fly aircraft, or close to the 12 nautical mile distance from china's territory. and over the area of near space, of course we have satellites. these balloons are flying. the 1st one of course that we know was trainees, that was shot down was flying really in the area above 60000 feet. it may have occasionally dipped below 60000 feet. but this is an area we that is referred to as near space, and there aren't necessarily international laws and regulations that clearly guide what kind of activity can take place there legally. so but if the u. s. says it hasn't said balloon, then maybe it has not been uncharted territory here in many ways. do you think this episode could be a turning point for us? china relations? well, so far it's been a turning point for the worse. i don't think we've had the floor in the us china

relationship, and this is despite the fact that president biden and chinese leaders, she jan ping met in november of last year in bali and in each on the margins of the g. 20 meeting and agreed to try to stabilize the relationship. and since then we have really not seen progress. there was a plan for secretary lincoln to go to china and that was postpone because of the balloon incident. but as i said, i think there is an opportunity now to get that back on track. but this is going to be difficult because of the political calendar. china has every year they have these, what they call their national people's congress and the chinese people's consultation of congress. they hold in early march, and i doubt the visit will take place before them on glazer and washington. thank you so much. thank you. the catholic clergy and

portugal sexually abuse nearly 5000 children over the past 70 years. according to a panel of experts. the inquiry heard testimony from over 500 victims. investigators say the majority were boys under 14 and most of the abusers are priests. inquiry opened after a similar investigation, france revealed around 3000 clergy members, sexually abused over 200000 children. for more, let's bring in keith portion would. he's the president of the u. k. national secular society. and he's been campaigning for more than 20 years to bring justice to the victims of clerical abuse. mister pushes would thousands of victims. and yet fears are this may just be the tip of the iceberg. what do you make of this report? it certainly is. i think the report is a complete whitewash. taking the french figures as a basis and taking into account the different populations of the 2 countries. these

figures are just a 10th of what we would expect that totally implausible. i think that this has been a very short inquiry. was there any longer 6 months ago, and how can you possibly investigate 70 years of abuse in 6 months? yeah. that and i know, and i want to talk about the commission that carried out this investigation because it was financed by the church. it claims to be independent, but how independent can investigation really be in your eyes? well, i don't like if it's financed by the church, then they effectively create the terms of reference and the breadth of the, of the investigation. and i say, and just as i say this is doing it in 6 months. tell us, tells us everything we want to know. this should have taken 3, is it a minimum? and oddly the church didn't say

a word about compensation and it's almost like it's really just trying to. it's a p r exercise and. and what i think he indicates though that that there is sufficient to abuse being declared, even with this for the portuguese government to open its own inquiry, a totally independent one. and which with a much broader re made because we also need to know what happened to the, the priest during this period that were suspected to abuse, where they prosecuted. probably not. how many of them went to prison and a much broader look at the, at the number of victims there and, and also whether the laws in portugal are on to dealing with this kind of thing happening in the past. and if not, how can they be improved and whether the police and the prosecutors have

been acting appropriately. if not, why not? and how again, can it be approved? that was a terrible problem in france, and i'm just come back from disclosing that to the un committee on the rights of the child. and there were some open mouths when i did it for shits. why? thank you so much. thank you. to the war in ukraine now, as a fight against russia consumes vast amounts of ammunition. ukrainian troops are running short of basic supplies, such as bullets and the arms industry appears. unable to keep up with the men, ukraine's endless quest for higher tech weapons dominates the headlines. but in fact, the country soldiers and its allies have a much more basic problem. everybody's not asking for more ammunition. in i'm so on

the front lines, there have been reports that ukrainian soldiers are nearly running out of bullets and some nato countries sake their 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. it's all unfortunate, but that's what it is and, and it's the result of just in time just enough her 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 the, one of those problems where he doesn't where it doesn't suffice to throw money to problem. cameo 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

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 u. s. says it will increase production of artillery shells by 500 percent over the next 2 years. germany's rine metal says it's hiring more people and may build a new production plant. camille grants 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 ammunitions, full termination. of course, a large portion of that is not feats to do strictly military ammunition,

but they can certainly contribute to the supply chain earlier in the conflict. it was believed russia stockpiles were vast. but now the pentagon estimates moscow supply of modern ammunition will run out within months. earlier we asked nicholas drummond and a fence industry analyst and former officer in the british army. if nino really kind of not forcing a shortage of ammunition, neither has really invested in store houses. i munitions since the end of the cold, 1990. and since that time we've allowed our stalks to be depleted. and we also have to remember that we haven't seen a major european conflict for even longer than that. and so our model for planning how much ammunition that we might use are all outdated. and we've just let the stock sort of dwindle over time. and we've paid the peace dividend because

we diverted defense expenditure to other areas of government after the end of the cold war. and now we from that suddenly find ourselves involved in the shooting war and everything that we thought that we knew about how we plan to do this is now wrong needs to change radically. so we, we are making sorry, yeah, just, just let me know that this could have been foreseen. there was just a miscalculation because nato didn't really see, know, or, you know, have a sense of what it was getting itself into will they have modeled sort of focus for how high intensity will might pan out. but what we're seeing in ukraine is a much more kinetic, more with vast quantities of, i mean issue being used much more than we imagined they would be. and that is required us to revisit our planning assumptions. how dangerous could the shortage

become for in crane? well, in the short, so i think we'll continue to supply ukraine and that won't be too much of a problem because there are multiple sources for all types of ammunition. the question is, if it's escalates and the rest of nature finds itself involved in a direct conflict with russia, we risk running out very quickly. so we're making a concerted effort to ramp up supplies and to really a large stockpiles and ensure that we get we get things going well. these efforts look like because on his recent visit to brazil, for example, in german chancellor asked lula to fill the to provide ammunition for the war and ukraine. and he's where he's at no, we're not getting involved. so what are those alternative sources? when could they be? well, most european countries have a domestic production of small homes, ammunition,

artillery ammunition is most specialize good and many countries are ramping up. united kingdom, germany, france, all of those countries are producing the ammunition. and so it would be available. what was difficult is a really complex missiles and long range, munitions, which router guidance systems, they take much longer to produce and the lead time. so manufacturing, those has been impacted by the global financial crisis and shortage of chips. lee, i was the analyst nicholas german. thank you so much for your time. you. thousands of demonstrators have rallied outside israel's parliament against planned judicial reforms. opponents claim the proposed changes attack democracy. the measures would give the government more power to appoint supreme court. judges, ministers say the reform would correct and imbalance of power between lawmakers and

the court. o democracy is one of the mean slogans at this protest. tens of thousands of israelis have taken to the streets. the fear that democracy is under threat. i'm here to demonstrate against changing laws which will make this country which we love not to democracy any more. that's it. more people are coming to demonstrations and we have this they optimistic. if we don't have our hope, there's nothing left and we're doing what we can. and we think that maybe today is a very, very name, and we hope that bill harris and bill here premium. that's all we can know. we came here to protest against law. this is very quick, very aggressive change of law. there's a lot of people that us are very unhappy with. the parts of the government are

trying to do here, deal here to send a message to benjamin netanyahu, new foreign government, which wants to overhaul digestive system, and reduce the influence of the nation supreme court. the plan would allow and armika to overnight, supreme court deficient and give politicians more influence in the appointment of judges. critic fee. it will give overreaching power to the government that many considered to be the most right. being in his rights history for what they are hearing from this spot is not a voice of despair, but a voice of hope. what they are hearing is not hatred, but love of the homeland. that's what is frightening them so much. that's what made our voice louder and clearer. it's a new one because i forgot. do bucko read your statement posted on his tweeted account. nathan. yeah, it used the opposition of fermenting a crisis. recoils. dr. deliberately dragging the country into anarchy. who get

a hold of yourselves, show sponsibility and the leadership because you are doing the exact opposite for you when the good comfortable super gl protests against the proposed were high. have been going on for weeks. but the government sees it's plans are essentially and doesn't seem to be back down, at least for now. ah, a kansas city chiefs are the new american football, silver wall champions after coming from behind to beat the philadelphia eagles in the biggest game of the year. the chief star quarterback patrick ma homes over came an ankle injury and confirmed his status as one of the and if else modern grants. patrick ma holmes was looking for a 2nd title in for years against the philadelphia eagles. but it was his rival quarterback jalen hurts who dominated the early stages. this was the 1st of 3
