over. ukraine's military says it wants to strengthen the embattled cities defense is even as russian forces tightened their grip on surrounding areas plus a crime against humanity and new un report condemns the tall bonds. treatment of women and girls in afghanistan as the country reopened. it's universities to mend only. ah, i'm nicole fairly shower viewers on p b s in the united states and all of you joining us from around the world. it's good to have you with us. it's exactly one month since massive earthquakes hid southern turkey and northwestern syria where than $50000.00 people were killed and the worst natural disaster in modern turkish history. the quakes epi center was near the

turkish city of garcia and have close to the syrian border. millions of people have been affected, left injured, homeless, or lacking basic facilities. anchor declared a 3 month state of emergency for the 10 provinces that were most effective. the government also arrested contractors suspected of shoddy building that may have vastly increased the death toll. now in north western syria, years of war have made the situation harder to evaluate the cities of aleppo and it lab were among those badly hit and a powerful aftershock. and the following weeks triggered new fierce w is mohammed al refi reports now from it lip at nightfall. the 44 year old am off. i ead fills his car with blankets and drives to the outskirts of it live far away from the cities crumbling residential buildings. he spends the night here with the sun. since the 2nd earthquake struck,

northwestern, syria and turkey. hundreds of families are afraid to sleep in their own homes, for fear of being trapped inside if they collapse all the lizards. and as you said, after all the earthquakes, my son and i are traumatized and that you didn't have, he didn't it. we don't dare stay at home because it's not safe. there was he and we haven't bought a tent and tense costs between $2400.00 and we can't afford wanted her to have decided to stay here with her. i medina, horning the earthquakes that struck northern syria and killed almost 6000 people. also destroyed thousands of structures. after the 2nd quake, nearly 200000 people were displaced. families abandoned their homes as aftershocks made the initial damage from the quakes. even worse. many moved into

tents in front of the houses or in other public places. a son of relief organization based in germany, says the challenges are numerous. i am in my what the law, the most crucial obstacle to expanding refugee camps during the, to accommodate the enormous number of people displaced by the earthquakes with such sunny is that the communities were not ready to build such facilities and marcus, and as the challenge of providing enough tense, donnelly, with that i 2nd earthquake academic level, even more people abandoned their homes that are to fall on that because of the trauma they experience. should it really shovel in the 1st one of his other a well near the city of it live will homage look carney offered shelter on his farm and swimming facility to people who have lost their homes or to families who are afraid their buildings will collapse on them than this villas as after the 1st earthquake, we received 20 families who lost their homes of sunny donna. and after the 2nd one,

latham many more came here because they were afraid to stay in their building sort of. and this will, although, as you can see, it is difficult to meet their needs, settlement for thousands of syrians. the choice is between living on the streets or living in fear. and turkey's government has drawn criticism for its handling of the quakes as well now. and the lines of opposition party has re united, had challenged president ridge of type ardon ahead of elections on me. 14th, the leaders have agreed on, kemal kill each die roll to face off air to one in the election can lead several law was already seen as the front runner of the opposition alliance, fractured last week after one of the 6 parties refused to endorse him. opinion polls show turkeys. upcoming election is likely to be the closest hot contests in air dawns. 20 years. earlier i spoke to dorian jones, our correspondent in is dumble and i asked him what had changed in the past few

days and hours to make the opposition leaders re unite and nominate kids to rolo. well, that's a big question. so people are asking for black shannon, the leader of the tea party, which is the 2nd largest party out of his coalition. and 6 stormed out of the coalition basically saying that she beneath college to all that they can do that. the leader of the main, c h p was on electrical. she believed that her eye of, of the mayor from a stumble and from mom all months or your vash, the unc for a man will fall better candidates. now both of those came from college to was faulty. a but she walked out and she made an appeal to both for those missed to bring themselves forward as a potential candidate leave or them did. they stood by the leader of their party and she had really nowhere else to go. and she has returned back to the fall, the now the coalition of 5. it now coalition is 6 and the united by go behind come out, good historical. and they're all geared up to challenge her present worth one. 0 is

him al? can they just are all hell is a bit about him? well, he's 74 year old who's a been a veteran of turkish politics. these many ways is the opposite of price at another want. he's very quieter. he doesn't have many people say the career my although want but he's seen as a man of integrity and all for a man who's very resolute. and he counties, kurdish from turkeys or ethnic minority curves and also an olive 8th is a liberal islamic sect which many conservative go tugs consider his heritage. and if you save it was one of a reason why polished old a will struggle in the campaign. but despite all of those things, he has risen to the top of douglas politics. lead are the main opposition party and he is re shaped to his party, but he took it over in 2010, 10. he was dead in the water. no 140 could ever challenger. one is rebuilt, our party now that party control or after the 5 main cities in talking to me,

the price is a stumble and uncross the critic still say he has never won an election against earth. ah, but this one is expect to be the closest in once a history of what do you think are his chances? well, i mean the president on really is fighting a very tough battle. inflation is anything between 80 and a 100 percent. sometimes maybe even higher. there is a cost of living crisis in this country and then we had these devastating of quakes on the worst in turkish republics. history is a lot of act from his act from ism over the response of the government and also why so many people died and the failings of those buildings that's going to be a key election. oh, only agenda. and that is why many people think earth one will be facing the toughest fight in his career. many pulse put him fall behind the opposition in the parliamentary elections, and also possibly not connect with color stall. it's going to be a very close fight. and while many people say is probably the most important election in turkey's history,

i know this may be hard to answer in only the couple of seconds that we have left, but what would a change a rule lead to in turkey at home, and internationally? wealth of turkey, it would mean the end of this presidential system a return to a full parliamentary system i'm which is something that it will be a key factor in these electrons. and also i think it will reaffirm the believe democracy still is vibrant in turkey. many people believe the 3rd one would never be removed from power electrolyte. this will be a key test of those theories. this is going to be a very important election internationally. it will also see a major reset, that one has changed turkish diplomacy in his 2 decades, a rule, what we expect is possibly a far more conventional approach. the 30th of thought is allies of, in europe and in nato in the united states. certainly an interesting race to watch . dorian jones, thank you so much. ukrainian military leaders are determined to hang on to the battle town of balloon, according to

a statement by president zalinski. as office news comes amid growing signs of a rift between the russian wagner mercenary group and the kremlin, wagner, chief give guinea, pre goshen says, his representatives has been denied access to russia's military headquarters in ukraine comes shortly after pre goes and released a message warning that his troops were running out of ammunition in buckled despite moscow, promising new supplies last month for goes in at the lack of ammunition, race, a collapse of rushes, frontline near the city. earlier i spoke with steven blank, he's a senior fellow with the foreign policy research institute who's published extensively on russia. and i asked him how much we should make of what looks like a growing rift between mister per goshen and russia's military command. well, i think it's significant because if the are progression who is the founder and leader of the private military group, wagner and the military command full,

that kind of dissension spread throughout the ranks and has a corrosive effect on the military. it also has a corrosive effect. on russian politics at the higher levels of command. so i think it's a significant development at not many people speak out against fresh and leadership, the weight per goes in does. he's doing it now. he's done it before. just how powerful has he become through his groups involvement in the war? i don't think anybody's quite sure how powerful he is, but he obviously feels he can get away with doing this. as you pointed out, it's not at all common that anybody criticizes the russian government or the military publicly and gets away with it as he has up till now. but he obviously feels he has enough political space or hip power with affinity, with prudent how you describe it to do so. but the longer this goes on the longer, sooner or later put,

and we'll have to slap him down as it is the fact that he's complaining that his people on getting ammunition indicates that the government is not inclined to listen to him. pre goes and says that without his mercenaries, the front line would crumble. is he threatening to do with withdrawal? indirectly there. i think he is, but it's not only withdraw after all, if you're not getting ammunition, you can't fight. so there will be killed suddenly. so if, if he was to pull his troops out, i don't think the whole military reform fall, but they would be certainly significant damage to the russian military position. how concerned do you think am fulton shouldn't be about these divisions? the optics here? certainly anything but good. well, the objects to us are wanting the objects to boot none other and people make the mistake of judging russian political developments through an american or west

european prison, which is not at all well founded way to do things are put in is using this for his own purposes, to be the ultimate arbitrator between them. but at some point, if you have a force of thousands of people with a morales falling apart, one would actually threatening to withdraw. and they claiming that i getting ammunition. then at some point somebody is going to have to lose something either to stop regoza or to given what something of what he wants in and plank of the foreign policy research institute. thank you so much for your time. i good thing in ukraine. we're a year of war, has crippled the economy as russian attacks, devastating energy infrastructure disrupt production and block ports, but work goes on despite the attacks. w. net conley has met with people in the knee pro region who are keeping ukraine's metals in the stream going in the face of the air strikes. ah,

it's a sound that means one thing. time to head for safety on the ground. no matter how many times you've heard, it never stopped being unnerving when will began seeking shelter, also might stopping work. the urine and production of this metal block continues regardless. thanks to this improvised set up a little more than a few computers and internet connection people down here and keep the machines running up above. their boss shows us his emergency supplies. if needed, he tells us they could survive on these provisions for days or even weeks through so far, this talk hasn't been hit with the russian troops still less than 100 kilometers away. the risks are real, lea be rented, this is war and no one can possibly know what will happen. tomorrow's a good. we can't afford not to be prepared. a decision is with us. i pray will never need any of this with others. but other ukrainian companies have been less fortunate to russian missiles a few days apart. it is production cited in the pro,

killing 2 people at the 1st strike not come on the weekend. that figure would likely have been far higher. it's lottery, i to lottery's a real can can time can come any time at any place. it any house at any facility. my 1st time here i saw the pictures. they did a one to come because i remember the equipment. i remember how much effort to spent making all this and that's russian. russian world is came to my a plant that how it looks like we visited another vicious loves factories. it's still going, but it's struggling with the effects of russian attacks when you cranes power system. yes, that the power bill dog. when we have a look at 1113 is robin alert. i turned off all the electricity, and that happens on predictably, never,

ever, that happens. we will lose around, would result in years. you know, one minute. the material inside, they cannot leave the temperature with the freight brain generators made all the difference. workers can now prevent uncontrolled shutdowns by time to by pin natural gas that stabilizes the temperature until means electricity returns. where before they would lose days of production every time the power went off. now it's down to a matter of hours. the power isn't the only problem they're dealing with here. ukrainian firms operating against all the odds are increasingly finding that many customers in europe don't want to work with them. they're afraid that will prevent the ukrainian supplies from delivering more to have a wonderful guy than that. everything was just,

i didn't know that we're fighting. everybody fighting it in my job is to make sure that the vendors are working to be able to get exhilarated. i can help soldiers, i can fight with them. but not every business can role with the punches like this one that you love tells us that at least a quarter of his competitors have already got out of business. and the bankruptcies keep coming from the resilience on shows. ukraine's economy is still in free for leaving this country. and it's all me ever more dependent on international support . let's take a look now in some of the other news making headlines around the world today. according bella rose has sentence exiled, opposition, leaders, fidelity australia to 15 years in prison for treason to canada said the conviction was, quote, revenge from the bel rosie and authorities and bound to continue her activism. she was forced to flee belarus in 2020 after mass as broke out when alexander lucas

jenko claimed to have one disputed presidential election against her doesn't. a massive fire has destroyed makeshift accommodation at the world's biggest refugee camp. more than 2000 shelters have burned down and cocks bizarre in bangladesh, but there were no reports of death or injuries. the facility houses hundreds of thousands of ro hinge of muslims who fled persecution in neighboring myanmar. mexican authorities have found $343.00 migrants in an abandoned truck trailer. in the eastern state of vera cruz, over a 100 unaccompanied children were among those on board. migrants were found unharmed with a trailer especially outfitted for people smuggling with fans and ventilation ports . protesters have clashed with police in the u. s. state of georgia at the side of a planned police training center near atlanta. authorities said 35 people were arrested offer. they threw rocks and fire bombs at officers. opponents fear the new

facility will fuel police militarization. the tall man's treatment of women and girls in afghanistan could amount to a crime against humanity. that's according to a un report presented at the human rights counseling geneva. since the taliban sees power again in august of 2021, they have drastically curtailed women's freedoms. and rights, including their ability to attend high school and university. the un reported to calls this an intentional and calculated policy to raise women from public life. to day, only men in afghanistan returned to university after the winter break countries taliban rulers borrowed women from higher education last december, accusing students of violating a strict dress code back to class after the winter break. not a chance to catch up with friends after time away, but the only sign of women at this private university in kabul is on the walls. and

the post is encouraging female students to wear ahead job. or am i to have life here before the taliban band? women from higher education late last year? i mean we didn't have any issue with our sisters having segregated classes from us . i'll point was that even if they had to study alone, we were happy about it. last year we were segregated and they were studying who are happy about it. there was no issue with it. that's what i mean. yeah. the ruling in december was met with protest, submit, wide spread global outrage with many of those taking to the streets. young women now being denied access the higher education, such as music. but what my personal view is that if girls are not educated, half of the society will be paralyzed. so half of the society needs to come out of this paralysis. the more progress you have in a society,

the better goals are also human or whatever they love, all like whatever they want to become in the future, they must continue and they must study in schools or at university wide from room or can you mccormick elsewhere that in the taliban says the decision to bol with in from university classrooms was made because dress codes and gender based religious restrictions were being ignored. the country is now among the most restrictive in the world for women's education, with a similar bond still in place for girls at secondary school. the united nation says the direct his could create a last generation, claiming every one has the right to an education. shalana zeeny is a british afghan, who works as a policy advisor to the british government. she has more on the situation of women and girls in afghanistan. look the urgency of a situation, a woman in a canister, and cannot be overstated. 530 days affected today. since taliban girls from school

and now $78.00 days since they band women university. and as universities begin to reopen following the winter break, we have now seen that girls will continue to be banned from, from continuing their education. and then it did this can amount to a crime against humanity. when women make up 50 percent of the population inside the country. but what we need now is an international condemnation. they're excused that women will not, adhering to dress codes, cannot be a justifiable any more women were wearing book because bales and following all codes and rules set out by the taliban. and yet they are still being banned from axis in their education. what we are seeing now is potentially leading to a permanent ban from going either to school go to university, and we cannot allow this to continue for more years to come. this needs to and we need an international solidarity, a solution. and the taliban needs to be held accountable for what can the international community do to make sure that the taliban are held accountable?

well look festival and we've got a sanction the taliban is. is one of the did the sort of the ruth to have that has been used previously. the international crimes prosecution, i see seek, potentially investigate the taliban for that treatment of women. and we are seeing women out on the street even today. there were a number of women sitting outside called with university boycotting the taliban rule on banning women from guaranteed diversity. now what we need to do is amplifying those women on the ground that they do exist. they want to stand up for their rights. what we need to support them, the work financially, all through all the means to ensure that they are supported, secured, to continue resisting for social trade inside the country. now i understand the western interest in afghanistan has been lost in so many ways. there is a growing fatigue over what we can do for the country that but this means it's the

time now to work with those inside the country. and our muslim majority or countries and neighboring afghanistan can also step up and play their part. you achieve antonio terrace, says that women and girls and understand have effectively been erased from public life. now, things as they stand. how do you see the future for girls and women in the country? it is, you know, the outlook is incredibly dia, i think just today, over the last few days, they've been an announcement that women who secured a divorce is prior to the taliban take over. it can be a if they can be considered illegal and any future divorce is that women may want to take has also been banned. the situation continues to grow and appear grim and the consequences of depriving women from having an education from having any public life will be long, long lasting,

even if the taliban will be what to be ousted tomorrow. the harm caused by confining girls to their home suggests objecting them to abuse and violence, and the night denying them of the fundamental human rights could be catastrophic. not just for the women of the country, but for the entire nation, and for for generations to come shopping on the zeeny policy advisor to the british government. thank you so much. sports now ukraine's marcia costio has dedicated her 1st ever w ga tor, titled to the victims of russia's war in her country. costio one the final at the austin opened in texas after breeding russian. barbara graciela in straight sets, butts as in previous matches against russian or bella rouge employers. she did not shake her opponent's hand or pose for photos with her after the match. in her victory speech cost, you pay tribute to the ukrainians back home. being in the position that i am in right now,
