and the effected are areas? so michael, uh, the us geological survey has called it the moderate size shuttle earthquake by torque mixers or quick therapist. they think of the fact that it's close to populated areas we have seen in video of unfortunately, media posted by people, buildings collapsing, people who are running with mr. said this all buildings moving. there was phonics and shock among people. children were seen trying valence for discharge discharge, and a lot of people were so scared that up and the quick happened at around 11 pm. so many of the people who are already in the bed sleeping. but when the fear or the shock was so much that they were scared to go back to their homes because of aftershocks and i, myself have experience back in 2005 boxes and was hit by mazda of earthquake. and i was living in an apartment building and the it for the building was checking on for bes,

you had disappeared off of the shop. so i can understand why people were not going back to their homes in the hospital if there was an influx of injured people, a quarter days have us people to donate blood the u. s. g s a page. our system which provides preliminary assessments on the impact of earthquake, it has issued a red alert for the economic losses, which means that morocco, which is the lower middle income country, probably would need help to the bid and, and, and, and facilitate. it's a, it's people. um, it also says that there could be extensive damage on the disaster is likely white straight. it's such a disorienting experience. it's really ours yet. but how is the world reacting to this? um, so your open counsel pest control, it's michelle has issued a statement saying that you stand ready to support morocco in this difficult moments. german jocelett or the actual test also offered condolences to the

relative of, of those who have been a good. that is a d to be reported many for job and many, many facts. a world leaders or a gathering in the union capital in new delhi for the g 20 summit. they will address a range of issues from climate change to the war in ukraine, indian prime minister, and the rent around mode, a welcome leaders to kick off the weekend summit. the g. 20 is a group of 19 of the worlds of leading economies plus the european union. together they represent 2 thirds of the world population. the leaders of china and russia are not attending the summit. for more on this story, we are joined by dell, the bureau chief and re, to gina emory to world leaders arriving and delhi for the summit. india wants to represent a show called global sales, and there's also trying to position itself on the global stage. what can we expect

today to hi, michael. well, the leaders have actually gathered in this building just behind me and the tools have started prime minister more the welcome to the leaders and he made his opening remarks. the 1st thing he said was that he expressed his condolences for the people who with kids in the of quick and more russell. and then he made another significant announcement is going to be g 20 plus one. as of today, he invited the african union to become a permanent member of the g 20. that is a significant because every decision at the g 20 has to be by consensus, every member state and the european union had to re to this decision. and there was widespread support for this, and this is a historic decision for india because as you mentioned, he wanted the global south to be sent to stage in the india g 20 presidency. and this is a significant out. i'll have to come there and be also of course india is trying to

promote inclusiveness, decisive action and a blue are to realism. and they want different aspects. what the global south is sent to state, for example, in reforming multi lateral banks and financial institutions like the i in math and the was back. so they are well in favor of helping the emoji economies. so you've got some real news coming out of the summit already. a shooting pain is not coming instead, beijing has sent a chinese premier leach young, who arrived in delhi a couple of hours ago to what extent is that to do with china strain ties with india. so what is the secret? the china and india have these stream ties and they have been screened sort of why for almost about 3 years when they had a very bitter confrontation in, in, in the north, in galvan. but that is nothing new. the 2 liters. and she didn't think,

and dr. mr. moody met at the brick summit in south africa just a short while ago, and they had a brief meeting this. so they will hopes that things had improved between the 2 sides. and also, even though this is richard confrontation of the border, india and china have decided to keep the channels of communication open ministry tools have been going on the portal to my de escalation. and what is also surprising about this decision by and the chinese president, dr. come with the just very last minute. the china only confirmed earlier this week that the president a, she didn't think was not coming to, denny is also like another underlying fact. both india and china would like to be v does of the global south and by india, by making the global south as the top of the agenda at this g. 20 summit is sending a message to china. it's a message may be china, doesn't like me. i'm going to one imagines that ukraine will be discussed, of course,

but any joint statement will be difficult to agree on. despite the absence of vladimir put in, can we expect anything substantive on the war to come out of this summer? it's windows one, use paper headline which summed up the situation really well. it said the word is here, but red is the, was on ukraine. and that exemplifies actually the deep division is that exist within members of the g 20 not the lead negotiator for india. i mean the cons who is just a we spoke yesterday and said that is a draft communicate which is being sent to the latest, the latest have to go through that and then either accepted or for for some revisions. so they seem to be very close. everybody is, nobody wants to be a de brick at this time, but the divisions are serious for china. i have said it would like a fruitful outcome. america say that would be it spot. i said good novels. the foreign minister of russia has accused the g 7 and the united states of putting

pressure on india to come to a consensus, which is in its favor. the e was that it would support any compromise language. so everybody is making last speech at times to come to a significant community and come to a conclusion, but there's also fostering going on. so we don't know what's going to happen at the end of this. we know, at the end of the day, they have narrow the differences, but whether they can close the gap remains to be seen. remains to be seen. w as i'm rated cima in delhi. many thanks is ever let's have a look at some of the other stories making news around the world. at this hour. molly has been hit by 3 terror attacks within 24 hours. a group link to al qaeda says it carried out the results. on friday, gunman attacked an army base near the city of gaia. the government says at least 49 civilians and 15 soldiers were killed in attacks on thursday. a russian missile strike has hit

a police building in the central ukrainian city of could really killing one person and entering dozens of others. the city is present and for a lot of his the landscapes, hometown and another attack. 3 people have been killed in the southern region of harrison. russian back to forties are holding electrons in the occupied regions of southern and eastern ukraine. steve and the west have dismissed the poles as a sham voters, and the 4 ukrainian regions of done yet launched her son and separation are supposed to elect regional legislators, which in turn will appoint regional governors. elections are also being held in crimea, which russia and next in 20. 14 russians are also voting and regional and municipal elections this weekend. turn out is expected to be low, many prominent opposition triggers who would like to run for office or behind barts . some young candidates are nevertheless hoping to put aside disillusionment with

politics and deliberate practical solutions. a once a month. wagner up the whole move on helps clean up. most goes together with the local residents of additions and environmental activists recall expensive rates. but barbara doesn't to, wants to stop, is there. she is running as an independent candidate is the regional election, even though including thrasher. any criticism of the government can have house consequences to test. so no matter what happens, that will always be everyday problems that need solve it. i believe i can do that, so i'm ready to put time into it. that's why i'm running for office minutes over with breath and level of autobahn, right? he's 18. she's just started studying political science at the most going either at the same time, she's campaigning for a seat in the district, the parliament on what's called

a single voting the russians in many regions and victors. they are local parliaments and the guy is a capital law scale vote distributions and mail. but when it comes to competing to there is no level maintainance, such as the many restrictions on election advertising debate in mass media is impossible. because independent media outlets have either had to close or go into exile with the opposition simply has no chance of promoting itself. but the phone went to the old despite of this part of all right, he's determined to reach as many voters as possible. she has called the nathan to campaign with independence, the candidates from other districts with no decay that space to meet the out gathering today in the shopping center. the topic this illusion into the politics in the time. so here's the question you're putting on. the current situation is having a negative influence on many elections because people who are actively participate

in 2 years ago say the now the phones out says they cannot change anything. and that's why they no longer want to help. because those are the people we want to bring to the parents to prove that it's still worth fighting for the test. but free fair voting is not every have a team rush. so say experts lead to as likely to change to the possibilities or special elections taking place under author retiring circumstances. technically, you can choose between different candidates, there are enough of them. but censorship and self censorship curved. any meaningful discussion about the center of professor for 3 here. i hope it works out, despise the obstacle, diseases of interest, to follow up a whole image and the future of russia, which she is determined to have a say the sport now. and there's been a big upset at the window at the men's basketball world comp in the philippines.

germany stunning, the us winning by just 2 points to reach their 1st world cup final funds. wagner left the way for germany. the orlando magic guards 22 points made a huge contribution to his sides when germany now plays tribute in sundays final and have already bettered their previous best of 3rd place. in 2002, the us missed the final for the 2nd tournament in a row. the players might have been overjoyed at the result, the germany's head coach was careful to keep their feet on the ground, the head of sundays. finally, offensively were i thought we were the good defense of we had some work to do. i didn't think we were a physical no. if i didn't think of resistance was good enough. we gave up too many easy baskets. we made a couple of adjustments. um, sometimes it works. sometimes it doesn't. i think it helped us in the 3rd quarter where the players enjoy this tonight and tomorrow morning we when we wake up with
