also affecting parts of neighboring lebanon. the trends were felt as far away as a rock, georgia, and israel, and in seemingly separate developments, less powerful. full earthquakes were recorded in catholics down. the cross the ocean in the us state of new york with some local tremors. now also hating taiwan. the catastrophe in turkey and syria has inflicted heavy damage to civilian infrastructure in several countries. the director of international affairs and migration, not the red presidency, the situation to dissolve. the area remains difficult for several reasons. it's mostly a better condition. it's not only called raining solving in some of the problems, it's raining in front of them. it's long. and so it's all in under mine. it could be a significant and the more challenging that's fearful. now, the better to get deployed in every problem with the infected and to

get the support of all of you. we are providing food and also emergency. a blanket is fluid, it's hospital records have impacted the establishing drop poll 10 outside the hospital for 3. our service has been hospital are now be implementing for example, outside the establish outside because the main, the hospital in impacted. so we are deploying shelton effective public building. primarily we heard from the kena by around direct at the center for energy environment and natural disasters at the university of bengal. he says, turkey is in need of international support to deal with the aftermath of the earthquakes. some of my friends to ports where bad news is some

a colleagues, it was some houses off to college, just a collapsed in on takia. and in kara, mom marashi where we been hearing that a. but anyway, these are not my relative spots. our citizens are in danger. unfortunately. i know so our seasons, some of our seasons are on the damage fielding, be just cold air force level coley. that means it be, are awaiting some other search and rescue teams from all around the world. because the numbers, a damaged areas or the provinces are, are very high and it's time consuming. and it's actually a money consuming less say. but we need to do that in neighboring syria, already ravaged by years of civil war. cities have been father, devastated by the quakes and nations. health ministry has supported at least 700

deaths and thousands of injuries in the country with people that describe any disaster as extremely horrific and terrifying. oh. is some of the latest footage of another building? the collapse in the syrian city of aleppo where the cities of comma under le takia are reported to be the most severely hit. some other images from syria. so a boy who's been found alive recovered from the rubble of a collapse building. this voted shows the moment rescue workers pulled him out to safety. and some disturbing him just from the syrian isn't a region where victims of the quaker now being hospitalized. according to media reports, emergency rooms are overcrowded, with many victims, waiting for treatment on the floor. independent journalists, vanessa bailey, who's now in the syrian capital stage rescue operations are hampered due to

a lack of equipment. there is been some material damage or in damascus, but the bulk of the devastation um is in the north and north west. of course, jordan and lebanon also felt the earthquake, those various images coming from lebanon, in particular from surveillance cameras showing the duration of the crate, which, which seemed to go on forever. and, and that is something that friends all around syria telling me that despite having survived 11 years of, of military war, economic war, political war, media war, this was the most terrifying night of their life for many of them. and that says something, the emergency services have been suffering from a lack of supply of equipment thanks to the western imposed blockade and barbaric sanction. or while they are doing their absolute fast, you know,

they're dealing with really a disaster that is beyond their capability. we know that egypt, iran, russia, have all offered help and i'm quite sure that the russian military on the ground is doing also what they can. but you know, another thing to understand for people is that many of these buildings, particularly in a lap or during the 10 year war, the taurus had tunneled under these buildings, therefore making the foundations very unsafe anyway. some of them had previously been vaccinated. and so therefore, the underground areas are not here is going to bring down more building. it's inevitable because the war has already made these areas so fragile. and this kind of earthquake is, is just horrendous. meanwhile, moscow has sent assistance to turkey and syria rescue, as from russia. emergencies. ministry are on their way to the disaster zone, to aid in the us quakes, aftermath and ass off to russian president pete,

and expressed his condolences over the tragedy in the countries. moscow has sent for emergency planes to turkey. i'm syria loaded with necessary equipment. that attachment includes 79 teams and more than 100 specialists, accompanied by rescue dogs to provide all the help they can. in addition, russian rescue is bringing a mobile hospital to the disaster zone when medics will be able to provide qualified aid on site. and russia, defense of industry has instructed staff already deployed in syria to assist in recovery efforts with more than 300 western troops. now one location there and actively providing a additionally most get it dispatched 50 units of special military equipment to help play the rebel and search for victims military metrics of also sets a mobile aid centers as a russian operated base. meanwhile, in moscow, people are laying flowers, lighting candles in front of the turkish councillor, to send their condolences and share their sadness for the lives lost in the nations

. was that natural disaster in decades and with the aftershocks felt as far away as israel videos posted on social media, showed life shaking inside buildings and local residents running for safety. according to the spokes person of united hudson law and israeli volunteer emergency medical service. the danger has yet to cause a space of deadly off. the shocks remain early in the morning. people are sitting with some people walking up by building your bed moving a little bit there weren't any injuries reported. thank god. what we're really here is sending a mission relief mission to turkey, that we're focusing on on assisting turkey secretary need. we've also reached out to syria, to offer assistance if you want to. but we definitely have made the offer 1st in

line to the most important value that we all share and whenever we are american. but after talk there is a pretty significant one not long ago and bridge on the 4.4. and continuing on, there's more dr. region and in israel, so we've been preparing for training for an area like this one where major or israel 1st, you know, the entire region is on a flight and something which we're very much take into account in our own opperation and our protocols here in israel zone turning to some other international developments now. russia's foreign minister has held talks in baghdad with the rocky counterpart discussing prospects of regional development times bilateral cooperation. the meeting comes limited tense time in the country, which is also a bit affected by the earthquakes in turkey. this video released by russian diplomats, shows chandeliers shaking from the trend wanted guides,

administrative buildings, as a talks got on the way that and during that meeting, russia's foreign minister at hughes western states of attempting to suppress the voices of sovereign nations opposing their narrative. sir, gala rav and his iraqi counterpart disgust prospects of improving dialogue between middle eastern countries. they also mold over energy and trade deals as bank that considers options for increased partnership with moscow. credit her the he and for some of them, elena, rather thicker. yes. love. so to me, a little slower in the circumstances of the illegal restrictions enforced by the ass and it's subordinates, we have to safeguard our lawful economic relations from illegitimate western pressure is of course, one of the ways already in use is to implement payments for oil and gas steel in non de la currencies, but that the 1st of all, the middle east, africa tour for the head of russian diplomacy. sir gil, over off his visit, comes ahead of the 20th anniversary of the invasion of iraq by the us led coalition

. coincidence, it shows the mrs entourage, the painful member of the american military operations with a false pretext. all the weapons of mass destruction still lingers. dawslet zillah sydney on this thought that each comparable to any of the conflicts are on the world toward the yes and their native colleagues did to iraq and later libya. remember how they're raised must to and are they, like i said as to the ground, how they devastated he ran rocca. i'm not in matching all the war crimes that didn't cause and if in the resentment in western financial community, americans and there wasn't counterparts. i tried to fulfill thou will you suppress, and now turn to forces from all the states and their sovereignty. this is the essence of the so called truce, which washington and bear set lights promote. instead of sticking to the principles of the yan shot us little boys throng, amid unprecedented russia that a rock of faith is from western countries. russia, particularly appreciate baghdad decision to refuse, joining sanctions against moscow. russian diplomacy also views the current visit as

part of the country is long term strategy in the middle east, the russian foreign minister held a joint media friends with his counterpart. the main focus of circle is to ensure the cooperation between the 2 countries. despite all the political challenges, although the russian foreign ministers visit to the last less than 24 hours, he probably was extremely busy. took a lot of not only met iraqi counterpart, but also president for she'd prime minister sued on the speaker filaments called lucy and former prime minister. molly key d u is persisting on its way to renewable energy as brussels is now named africa. as a key partner in these efforts, however, the vice president of the commission has admitted they have an especially vested interest in africa resources. africa is probably going to be the most important partner for europe in terms of the developing the renewable energy sector. the european union will need more green hydrogen than we can produce ourselves. so we're looking for countries where green hydrogen can be produced. and

a statement from brussels comes africa stuff as a huge crisis off its own. even the continents most prosperous nation, south africa, faith is coal shortages on the energy insecurity. the e u has been searching for a stable energy supply since it can make time with russia were severed. last year of the series of unfruitful talks with countries in the middle east, the he was now lying africa fall. tentative with the nations have been pushing africa towards green energy for months. the un chief said that the world must end is dependency on fossil fuels. oh, speaking of africa, renewable resources that remain mostly on top. geopolitical analysts, jo mulanda, told us that african leaders should not blindly accept any deal with the e u without considering the needs of their own people. first, though lovely, does that to live deals as individual is with the you states or that you member

states that will influence them into making decision? not necessarily on behalf of their population. but the political parties that elected those leaders should be the one to have policies that will influence that the energy problems need to be revolt within african states. so, but if the, if you leadership is influencing the policies of africa, it's going to be a very long road for african countries to deal with their own energy problems. so it should be the political parties that have influenced their leaders that are in power to make sure that they are in line with that. and then she plans for their own countries. that one come from you. elsewhere in africa, the red cross of kenya has condemned the killing of full humanitarian volunteers by militant groups in neighboring south sedan. can you know, authority of called on police was to join the fight against terrorism. can you

campaign anything against the al? sure, bob, a terrorist group founded in somalia, there's been wreaking havoc in the country, and his name is 15 years. kenya is preparing to adopt somali as approach with civilians are expected to aid and find a game similar since this comes as the leaders of kenya, the booty, ethiopia, and somalia have agreed to make a final stand against the group. we spoke with a political analyst to say that the joint effort is the only way to completely defeat the radicals and think particular, we have seen an increased activity of sort of attack associated with those across across the border. we've taken, she has read the mileage, this is already someone data and also some saw it is the recent announcement by the leaders sort of piece up from

a policy that started in my layer under, under the regime of 600. it is also part of the realization that not only was dental somalia, but also put is not a good fit for the region and they will ship to be completely treated. we do therefore require the coming together of this regional state in the group, which was the fest for all these countries that are before we go, a reminder of our developing new story. at least 2300 people have been confirmed dead and more than 14000 injured after a cascade of powerful earthquakes in south central turkey. neighboring syria has also been devastated with only 700 people confirms dead and thousands injured there . but tremors were felt hundreds of kilometers away. rescue operations continue in both countries with the death toll expected to rise further. as many people remain
