a monstrous, there is quite entire villages of people in himes wiped out thousands a date and the death tall is expected to rise. today. morocco is in morning for me . it's because natural disaster in living memory. now the rice is on to find anyone who might still be alive. risky crews are really using what if they can heavy equipment even they'd be a hands to dig through ramble in room like mountain villages. many people are having to sleep out in the open as they try to come to grips with everything that they've lost on jared rate in building. and this is the day the was sitting comfortably at home when suddenly we felt the tremor like say, 5 seconds. it's happening within seconds,

everything fell down. some people ran out of the houses. others didn't make hits. my mother is this. my mother. my hair is broke hanging low, low now i've got nothing. now i'm unemployed. there's nothing to eat. everything is destroyed. also on the day, it's 50 years since the crew that brought dick tied to o. gusto penetrate to a pallet and she laid his brutal regime killed thousands today too late is divided on how exactly to commemorate its past that survive is about time. warn against being complacent about the dangers of all for a terry and isn't going to and we need to save democracy, aggressive democracy is the system that at least allows us to have a minimum of freedom with what's doing. it's not an option to say, let's just forget about it because it happened so long ago in the

welcome to the day the last time, an earthquake, hate morocco as hot as this was of a 100 years ago. the quake struck thousands of vermont villages live on friday, flattening them, and killing thousands right now, and the rocking rescue is supported by foreign teams. are doing, all they can to find survive is in the rubble. the match of the affected region is hard to reach the sky, lavette task is huge, and time is running out. the catastrophe has wiped out families and livelihoods amongst the rubble of the villages, survivors, mon, for their loved ones. the quakes lessened entire villages in the high atlas mountains burying families under that hones abdul rahman, survived, but he lost his wife and 3 sons. no, no me that we buried them yesterday. go for you. i felt so

sorry for them. okay, the only way and 2nd smith, when we found that they were all huddled together, the 3 boys because of that, they all died in the earthquake, the weed that homes destroyed people and left to sleep outside. aid is trickling in. but many of the villages are remote and difficult to reach. some survivors say they're still waiting for help. and have you got any, when the earthquake struck them, all communications were cut off. it was the villagers who got the victims out of the houses and you know, just spending the night in the cold water leak as you would do. never mind. we have no time, wasn't one of those no blankets. we had nothing done. i know she hasn't been home instead of would you the fact that the support from some foreign countries like cotton spain has arrived. but the moroccan government has sofa ignored offers of

help from other nations. for in teams have joined moroccan rescue is working to locate people still trapped under the rubble some left to say victims of us, quick and tacky. earlier this year is always a race against time, but i will never write to anybody often to give you still putting people out after 7 days. so we will stay as long as we need it until we think that the quake has also blocked some roads. and rescue is a still trying to reach some of the hardest to terry is is the window to find survivors slowly close the gentlest. most cybill. sammy has visited several villages in the past few days that were completely destroyed by

the earthquake. you joins us from our cash. welcome. most of the 1st days the most critical in, in natural disasters. it's being 3 days now since the quite so. what hopes all the and now we're finding more survivors. and um, very little um, most of the villages uh close to my cache, the less remote ones they've been mostly dealt with and they've all been uh, recovered. um the ones that uh, continue to prove. i challenge other remote villages that have been cut off due to the damage from the as quick which has blocked access to these villages. today there were um, military headquarters throwing aid uh from headquarters, uh to the residents of these villages. because there has been no access yet. there has been parts. and how is the region on federal though that within the region uh,

almost 100 kilometers sides of my cache that i have been an accessible but um, slowly there is some, uh help arriving. it's obviously a race against time and it's, it's remains to be seen how many can be recovered after the critical stuff within 22 hours of task wake up with that with the arrival some expert teams, the and rescue missions from the full countries. um, there is some hope at that that could be the case, but that's the challenge of just acting through these areas continues to be the main ones you've talked about. the i that's coming in morocco has accepted aid from some countries there span cost operation and the u. a easy, but it hasn't accepted help from others. could you tell us why a well, the american official line was after expressing gratitude to the global uh supports

was that it was going to deal with the uh, all these requests almost case by case really. and what was interesting uh that was mentioned in the statements was that they fear that uh without this coordination and they could, uh, these efforts could be counter productive. and i think what this is referring to is as great that happened in the same i almost 20 years ago in the northern re regions and act that killed 600 people by today. but it was miles by confusion, by planes landing and others having to raise because airports could not sustain or receive all of these uh arrivals. um, maybe there maybe that is one of the reasons why uh, more of a careful and also uh there is, there is a sense that because of this is such a, a changing situation. they are,

they want to be careful. but obviously this is not a uh, an on i'm a controversial one. uh, a lot of people have been surprised and um, some of the people we spoke to in the villages where um, supportive off of uh the fact that morocco should accept all the help it can. because of how some of these efforts have just locked. whether it's the button next or just uh, overwhelming and pressure on the military and security forces. or i, i want to say this, the reason i'm sorry i want to while we have time, which is very brief i, i just want to ask you finally about the people who have survived. many of them is sleeping out in the open. what's being done to help them for now? um, most people are starting to spend their nights in uh in tens more campsites

uh away from their uh, villages. almost uh, almost every village in the high up this mountain now has those little come sites, but they continue to be voluntary efforts. as some people are still sleeping in the streets, even in the streets of my cache. on the last night we met a lot of people who continued sleeping the streets, whether they are afraid of dr. sharp or just the ones we haven't yet found. show that today morocco's appointment is the z like a noise and a gave some a for sure remarks where he said that the reconstruction ended with then and their rehabilitation program is on the government's prior to this. and that really shouldn't be the case because of the fridge conditions in the hapless mountain where the temperature drops. yes, very, very significant. at nights. journalist most cybill saw me speaking to us from our case. thank you so much for your reporting there.

estonia and lafayette have signed a deal with germany to buy it's iris t a defense and we saw system. the joint purchase is worth 400000000 euros. it pipes away for the 2 baltic nations to join the european sky shield initiative. this is a common, a defense plan put forward by building gym and he wants to retain countries to join forces to increase protection against russian miss 1000 drawings. it says the gremlins invasion of ukraine has revealed weaknesses in the defensive. good from key is to crime a task. russian met sales have devastated ukrainian cities destroying thousands of homes, the killing civilians, and forcing europeans to ask themselves whether their defences are strong enough to keep them safe. wherever you check in europe. because of the cold war,

we haven't invested enough money in this capital. latrice gemini wants to lead the way in changing that with the, with the european sky shield initiative, we're bringing together european states to join to increase protection against ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, and drones. this is what germany's plan looks like. 6 irish t surface to air rocket systems with target short range marseilles, a dozen patriots systems would be used and to set to meet jim range attacks on to top it off the arrow 3 system would defend against attacks from outside the shop must be providing vast cover so far, 19 european countries i've signed up to about lessons planned. i'm very happy that our populace as tonia and luckily i have decided to procure the iris t. so and this will, without any doubt frank, some european,

at events. one of germany's closest allies friends, however, once to push ahead with its own initiative, i'm joined now by military analyst marina mirror and she's to be the department of wall studies at kings college and london. welcome back to the day many or we just heard. france wants to take a different approach to defending europe skies. how is how it's from different to germany's europeans guy shield initiative, a good evening? well, friends is a pro which is looking at the long term and the problems of friends has specifically is the use of us. and us in east rarely made systems such as patry with an arrow 3 and so friends for see some issues when it comes to reliance on other actors. so forefront, it's important to rely more on the european made systems. this will the essentially

results the issue of europe depending on the united states for its security, probation, and give europe some sort of an economy when it comes to defending itself. and friends has also developed an air defense system together was easily, which is mom, but it hasn't been tested, but that, that's the francis approach is to use that instead of relying on the united states and israel. so you're saying francis approach is more long term not relies more on european know how uh, from your perspective as a military analyst, which plan makes the most sense to you, a weight based plans, they go into the same direction. essentially both agrees that europe needs a proper area defense, however, is there a political problems and there are some technical problems as well in terms of implementing this plan. and these are plan in these are initiative and has answers

to that. for instance, even if you, we would go was a friends as approach of refusing european made the air defenses. again, we're seeing that 92 countries have joins the initiative. this is boasting, of course, um, in germany's defense industry, it's a great move. however, we don't know how those systems will be distributed and how user plan would integrate with nato strategic goals because need or has a radars. and essentially, what is important is it integration of the active part of the european scribe defense of, of those systems that we just talked about. whereas the nate or reader system was passive defenses. especially considering that not only are members spain and a bully, having joint of this initiative pulling, ironically, hasn't joined this initiative despite being close to russia and who is going to

control it. is it going to be central to control which countries are going to purchase which systems? and how's the pay with it? within each country will influence the decision making that mirror there's lots of competing solutions to the same problem. let's talk about that for a moment. just how wonderful it easier to rush and miss solves, and drawings. well, at this time, that there is no foreseeable eminence stretched from russian missiles. russia has been developing hypersonic missiles as a response to what formally has been known as a prompt global strike, which is a non nuclear long range stride capability. however, now russia is involved in the war in ukraine, and russia's military capabilities are over stretched and russian on the stands well that it wouldn't farewell against nato for so russia doesn't really seek to

provoke nato. by striking it was non nuclear weapons. if it came to a big escalation, then shirley, russia would resort to nuclear weapons because that would give it a certain advantage. however, even striking come to force targets was in natal. so there is truly going to be a response that's russia will not like. and that russia will not be able to respond effectively to this being sad. i don't think that the strep is there for the right. and so it's a completely separate matter because footprint such air defenses are not very effective. and there are other solutions which europe doesn't have in his arsenal, using laser weapons to a fights, roads and israel has some of those. but this, this is a separate issue, needs to be considered as an addition to a layered defense. as we're seeing in this initiative,

thank you for your time. marina mirror and from kings college in london, we really appreciate your analysis. thank you very much. i of the 42 a is mocking 50 years since the military crew of 1973 died over through the government of salvatore. at the end that could lead to a military dictatorship. and on the augusta penetrated that last of the 17 years under that regime, thousands of opposition supported with persecuted, tortured and killed by the army. to land president, gabrielle burridge gave an address outside on the the presidential palace in santiago. the palace was bombed by tuesday and air force planes and the crew, and it's with salvador allende died. and what i'll be talking to our correspondent inside to jago in just a moment. but 1st, this report about a person who witnessed these events 50 years ago. first had the,

the moment, but changed too late for the presidential palace and santiago monita under attack. the video footage, an indispensable witness to the military coup in 1973 over throwing the governmental socialist president sided by the audience. on the day of the attack, he insisted on staying in the palace. but the dfcs best o'brien was his private secretary back then. but she would never see her boss again. this is where the president committed suicide and the she would have never surrendered. that we were all sure of. or on the morning of that day after some phone calls, she already knew that something was off. she tried to make her way to the presidential palace,

but was stopped by the military. narrow the address that they surrounded me. it was, it is one of them pulled my arm behind my back of nathan and i said and said let me through. i am the president. secretary, you're saying that only made things worse. you said they were asking you to surround me and my cars. i had a tiny cars just had the again, i knew that something tremendous was going on, but i didn't understand was minutes and then one of i in days ministers showed up to florida. minnesota, florida. this is on more and almost without looking at me. he said he's me to try to run then he said, that's all you have and surely was plunged into a assess the military took over power under the orders of that colanda in chief general. i will still be not yet in 1974. the new chad was declared president by the tune tough during his 17 years of rule, thousands of 2 lanes opposing the regime were arrested torch. it killed and disappeared. as bill bryan however managed to escape to cuba to get there with the

children. and one of our youngest daughters, bethany's, also known as patsy. they left everything behind. yeah, yeah. so now for a new life sausage would get a very pain if you have one to help me at this time because we had no news from my family. is this? well, i had no idea how my husband was to the other. we knew that the president had died, so that it was something we would not talk about in this tati. and i would not able to talk about it there. so i'm wondering if i'm the point at that is, i don't know if i'd be able to have that if so from one day to the next to special benign became an exile living 1st in cuba. then in venezuela, watching from a far as the penal trip dictatorship ended in 1990. despite the arrests for human rights violations and a trusted tease committed, securing his regime, you know, tip remained untried until his death in 2006. in 2002 again, this form

a secretary returned to santiago for good, so traumatized by the past. she has made her mission to keep on getting this memory alive and raise awareness about to lose history. so the past cannot repeat itself. i can kind of and we need to save democracy, aggressive democracy is the system that at least allows us to have a minimum of freedom with what's due. and it's not an option to say, let's just forget about it because it happened so long ago, then that is what the chile and right is doing with a denial that they say it's not true that it's a lie. we cannot let that happen. that's my position, and i will defend it until the last day of my life. the dw correspondent opinion men of iris group eyes in santiago, benjamin 50 is on. it's very clear the wounds of the military crew still run very date for survivors. what does the crew and the brutality of the printer should raise? you mean to people living? and surely today are the ones that definitely still open. you can see also with

the speeches of the family, members of those were full simply disappeared. many of them also appeared and talked today at this commemoration of the 50 years of the military coup in front of the presidential palace. the palace was bombarded exactly 50 years ago. many of them have been searching for years for the remains of their loved ones. only recently, phil is just as minister and they presented a new national search plan to find it beach remains. but of course, you can see there that this feeling society is still divided when it comes to the coo and when it comes to the 17 years of military dictatorship that follow. dr. it in there are people who still defend what it was, you know, to said there was a recent poll saying that at least 39 percent of people still support. i was subpoenaed to the house and protest songs in front of the presidential policy. and that democracy was broken before in 1973. so during a, the, the, the,

it's 3 years of saw the lawyer again and committed suicide onto 1st 11th. but of course the society is still divided. we see especially on day 6, this benjamin i want to talk a bit more about these divisions because of recent survey. so that 60 percent of 2 lands would not interested in the crew. why do you think that is? that's right, and that's why we just heard the report why it's so important to talk about these things and but also if you look at how a political parties are reacting to it because of course we can see how discussions are going in society. but if you take it further and see how political parties are reactive as a tentative, almost that's a coalition of the center, vice and voice. when punches they decided to not attend the ceremony today to also not signed the declaration by the government and one pod, your rights we fall into even signs of what happened on september 11th of 1973. the events, not even talking about

a military to what inevitable. it shows that many say you have to look forward to have to lead to the future. and the fact that is to set the wounds of still open and many of the last 4 ounces these on says, you know, we know benjamin thousands were killed on dependent shade. and so many of it so many victims are still missing what's being done to a time for these victims and, and to try it and seek justice or so that has been this national search fund that i mentioned already been restored, available. they just as minister who will now search for it, but we have to look further and we have to see how long it has taken for just is it only recently also there was some soldiers who tortured and killed evict or how did one of the most well known a sing is in chile, and that happened 50 years after the touch and off to the motor occurred. so there are many, were still in the military. the military leaders were also absent a today's commemoration. we still have to talk with solar to say, well, these people are to differ more information and this bill more information coming

out of exactly what's happened. there are new documents that happened also supplied by the us government for the us embassy and julie showing how the nixon government tried to overturn and even before it took over power. so the lot of answers that us to look and once we're open, but in, on days like this, you see the children's society is still divided on this. thank you for your reporting, benjamin others group and santiago. thank you so much. i to well, that's our time, but please make sure to stay in touch, follow our team on x at dw and using myself at jarrett underscore rate. if it's, if it's the latest headlines you're looking forward, as always think they'll be, they'll come for now from the entire team on the day. thank you for spending part of your day with us. the
