to improve relations after tensions are wrapped it between the west african nation and the un. as molly expelled the un human rights envoy ah, coming to you live from the russian capital. this is our t international. i'm rachel blevins here with the top stories of the our welcome to the program. turkey has been struck by yet another series of earthquakes just a day after a powerful one detective in magnitude of 7 point. 8. rot have it in the country and in neighboring syria turkish president era to want described as the strongest earthquake there in almost a century. more than 3000 people have been confirmed dead. the following footage is from one of the hardest hit areas and just a warning you may find it disturbing. i'm luke with

hello. i am elderly residents from a nursing home. we're forced to flee into the freezing cold as the facility was heavily damaged. with the outside temperature around 0 degrees celsius, this footage shows local some of them seriously injured, exposed to the elements without wearing winter clothing. images are also circulating on social media, showing people in tears, trying to support one another as they wait for news about their loved ones and affected areas. again, that you all know me that this moment just after a building collapse was filmed by

a journalist during a live broadcast in southeastern tortilla. the foot. it shows locals frantically running away from the structure after it caved in so much. i'm not there yet, but also the at least 10 turkish provinces were impacted and tremors could be felt hundreds of kilometers away. among the countries of fact, it neighboring syria, already crippled by years of war, suffered mass devastation when seismic shock spread entered northern parts of the country. so let's take a closer look. now, at the extent of the destruction, so far, nearly 3500 deaths have been confirmed inter kia with another 20000 people injured . syrian authorities have reported more than 700 killed and 1400 injured. we heard from some of those who have lost their loved ones. ah,

with they have torn my hotel, were completely broken. no for the new modem ah, goes up besides that one is also

a ms. ross was in the families under there. my sons, my daughter, my son in law, they are still under the rubble. we hear their voices, they're still alive. there's no way to get them out. there's no machinery, there's a, i'm not in a meeting. grandson is 18 months, so please help them please. we can hear them have not got any news from them since the morning, please. there were the 12. 0, we can't reach my family, my grandson. ah

ah, let's crossel. i'm now to go of a shock. ostrich, a correspondent at the turkish news agency. da ha! who is currently at the epicenter of one of the most devastating quakes, though i thank you so much for taking the time to join us today. what can you tell us about the situation there on the ground? okay, go, workmen, office shows say at least 3000 a 300 with them a to long peer bold, killed in turkey. it just fell on turkey. and 15834 people endured in turkey. right now. we are in car about mirage, car, mama's but i was the center of dirge. quick, earthquake and almost irv. per thousands. buildings had been destroyed,

destroyed by the earthquake behind my back. as you see. that was the 7th floor that was a 7th, 7th for them destroying holdings in my behind my back charging arrest. good themes, laurie on the mission in carter. my rush to say say lives in turkey. people needs basic needs like blank blanket, dry dry fields. caults. do better, so leather situation are really bad that so very cold winter day in turkey, yesterday nights it was a very bad storm. storm is small, storm and rolls are closed. some have scant reached in that area. as you can see, already quit teams are on the way a it, this search quick is not only in hits carter mom,

but us. it's nearly 10 different city. and numbers are still rising. q is the strongest earthquake in the country, has experience since 1939 in the republic of turkey. my generation will never experience something like this. so we try to handle this situation. then our rescue teams are constantly working. people are constantly searching for their families for a blog. once some people are crying, yearning i don't see any international help right now. now, as you mentioned, the condition, right. okay, higher. yes. now, as you mentioned there the conditions are incredibly staggering and devastating. can you tell me how emergency personnel and hospitals are hopping based recording? now?

as we know far far s i can't hear. i can't hear you. all right, gyla, but shock are stark. a. d h, a correspondent. thank you so much for it. thank you so much for joining us and for your live coverage from the ground and the syrian city of a lap. oh, near the turkish border was one of the areas most effect it. residents were forced to flee their homes and have been gathering at shelters where they are provided necessary accommodations. the facilities were chosen because they are far from tall buildings. as residents fear, there could be further tremors. we heard from some of them as they shared their terrifying experiences. unless done this by that man who could feel the ass moving under us like windmills and the shaking was getting stronger and stronger. all the things in the house were fooling. we could not get ourselves together. we didn't know what to do, would be like the live people fled from the homes and we decided to come to this

comment. this is there more area and there, and no tall buildings there. we went out to the street to see old people standing there. there were in a disastrous condition. hi leon and the act i'm. is there more than 750 people in the convent? we're providing all we can for these families. we give them breakfast, lunch, and dinner, as well as providing heating and bathrooms. and the most important thing for them, which is safety. as syria tries to cope with the aftermath of the devastating earthquakes, the u. s. has again refused to lift its sanctions against the middle eastern country for us state departments spokesperson ned price recently deflected a question about that policy, saying that it is actually the syrian government that is to blame for the over all disastrous situation there. bobby johnson and government, they are going to be run the speculation or 8 operations on. so would be great just you know, just show it to sort of lift the sanctions. going to have basically,

you know, southern cavity. it would be quite ironic if not even counterproductive. for us to reach out to a government that has brutalized its people over the course of a dozen years now, asking them slaughtering them, being responsible for much the suffering that they've endured. human rights groups have warned that western sanctions, particularly from the us, are blocking aid from entering syria after the earthquakes. media outlets have reported the transport companies are afraid of making deliveries to syria due to a risk of punishment from washington. we heard from analyst to lab abraham, who says that the u. s. is only looking out for itself instead of considering the flight of the syrian people. this is very clear that the might of states policy in middle east have, has one before when goal is to undermine the syrian states. they do not care about human problems or who didn't issue. they want to look for the

size of humanly tim issue. indeed, when there is any humanitarian from them or get us to fly into the we see that the united states is a def nation, that they will not hear anything. they are only looking for their interest in the outer ping on the 3rd floor. they're a political agenda. now we didn't hear any instructive reaction from the side of the united states. rush and rescue workers have been providing assistance in earthquake stricken areas interfere and syria. 3 planes with ration emergency personnel have arrived in the southern turkish city of a donna. another deployment is headed to the earth wake up a center. the russian personnel are tasked with operating in the area around the clock in syria. more than 300 russian soldiers,

as well as 60 units of military and other special equipment, are assisting and rescue core operations and clearing, debrief, those orders have been providing humanitarian aid to local syrian residents. the russian military has setup assistance centers in the syrian cities of law. and let's talk. yeah, i made other areas for more on this. let's cross live now to behind dear octagon professor of size, molly g at on cur universities, department of geo physics professor. we really appreciate you taking the time to join us today. now, this is a region that has experienced heavy seismology logical activities in the past. are those concerns always taken into account when buildings are constructed, their looks like we may be having a little bit of trouble with that signal, right? it looks like we have you back on our day when it comes to the activity in the area

. is that taken into account? do you think when it comes to the construction of the buildings? i bought the contract with a lot. i was given to a salesman and is not on. i'm not talking about wanting to talk to joe. if you see that most damage comes contraction and not being released. now, when it comes to a lot of the scenes that have been spread about on social media, these horrific videos that show building is collapsing. does that come as a surprise to you to see just how much devastation that is occurring right now?

yeah, i believe doesn't a, as of now, it does come so calculated a little bit if we're at the buildings. i mean, if the bill we see the buildings are not properly contract according to those limits and some point. so one is not an unexpected in scientific crumbs and a lot of the tutoring. how, how begin, what could happen in that area is the area isn't this ice maker ran on seismic internal preparedness and in terms of the contract and quality, it is sure unexpected. and we are seeing similar pictures in mama from like enlightenment is moved and is your case. so i'm not surprised if i the class or collateral buildings or unfortunately,

we shouldn't poo poo constructions to cause or now as of right now, we've seen that turkey are still experiencing, subsist substantial after shock. one of them had a magnitude of 5.6, how long can such high seismic activity be expected to last? here i do with the loo gong, where one and another here. the short is expected to be 1111 lower than the mean. official magnitude, so 611 or critical magnitude 7.7, we expect that magnitude or 6.6 offshore. and if you already, excuse me, after, so they will, they will decrease the k in terms of frequency in terms of the magnitude a year to the k. now

when it comes to the tremors that we've seen so far, how do you, how do you think that they have affected the turkish governments recovery efforts so far? and when it comes to, you know, emergency services coming in, how does that play out? and how is that affected by the continued activity there? i'm not sure i understood, understood your question. i mean, what effect actually effect when it comes to the emergency services and the aid that they're bringing? how is that being affected by the tremors that we've continued to see in the aftermath? the problem was, i think of actually the single earthquakes aftershocks, which alone may not affect the area could be highly affected. because again, there the damage buildings from the main shock. pull the risk of collapsing it.

this is actually something we have explained in 2011, one or cake and what a building where many emergency rescuers and officials stay collapse after chris alone. enough pressure. so i do emergency f was took, he has a gun and a love jack twist in his keeper, of explains, in terms of his immunization management and considering the size of the scale of this disaster in notting of his could not be enough so many internationally months rescues level in kentucky at the moment. now we know that any kind of seismic activity is usually carefully registered by scientists. so do you think that anything could have been done to prevent such casualties as we have seen in both turkey and syria?

in terms of scientific mass, it was due and i can go on to say there's a pin size each occupies your on the scale and extend over. mm hm. and then the 2nd part could be using the technology that i may have to use to minimize to risk hazard. want to improve to response a long way to go that way. i can be a hazard assessment has already mature and in terms of using the technology, mastic valley and like the warning services are beaten quality, checking some scenarios. and one of the one most important thing is i think, to grandson in real life scenarios about possible

disasters. and to include construction quality, the prospected or scenario which we have still a long way to go. but here we are a long way in terms of assigned with and or scientific investments could improve our response and minimize the damage in the candle this. now on the topic are that long way to go? how likely are there to be further substantial earthquakes in turkey, in the coming days, or even further after shocks? like the ones we've seen so far, is that still a major concern right now? yes, it is a major concern, but in terms of just not working, i mean, i don't expect any immediate quick luggage on 2 or something

in the creature. it seems to be or case i as already, excuse historically. if i find that he is to go and 1000 years, i saw exactly the issue of what system, which is a bit different to form not utterly wasn't not out of washington is more focused in lots of earthquakes. lodge were fixed. george in that area is that our phone system is accumulating a loss, training loss. i see city. so it kind of share shadow whining about what's the but this last stain equation could also me larger or place in larger time intervals. so i personally will not expect any large or kicks that area so quite often other than the aftershocks. but there are many other ideas which i as hazardous and this one other certainly is a devastating situation,

but we really appreciate you joining us to provide your insight, professor bahati, or i thank you so much for your time. ah, turkish president air to want has described one of the earthquakes as the worst in almost a century. so what else do we know about this devastating series of natural disasters? check out our website, r t dot com for more details and all of the latest updates. molly's foreign minister has greeted his russian counterpart sergei lab rob upon arrival in the country as russia's talk. diplomat is on a tour of africa and the middle east lab. rob is also scheduled to meet with molly's interim president and conduct further talks with the west african countries pop diplomat. the focus is expected to be on expanding bilateral ties in various fields, including economic and military issues, as well as upcoming deliveries of russian, wheat, fertilizers, and petroleum products. we heard from molly and residents who think that russia has

helped their country, whereas france has not gone on a visit to the shifted. i. diplomacy for us that top russian diplomats visit to molly reflects the new face of the relationship of cooperation between molly and russia. and been african rush in general. it also reflects the respect that rushes leadership has fl, african people, and the count african authorities, because it is different from what is happening elsewhere. we were betrayed by those who were supposed to help us. and above all, we'll have victims of those who were supposed to happen to support us. france came as a colonist. it came as a colonizer and russia came as japan. nama laura, spare you? crocker on sticky. constantly, molly? i believe that as far as molly's concerned, russia has come to the aid of our country, but as an independent country, in almost 90 percent of former, malia and offices were trained by russia around 90 percent of the weapons owned by gemelli and all me were purchased from russia, relations between france,

the former colonial paula and molly have experienced a kind of arranged body not to say an open war. you know, when you even go inside molly, people already in a way for collective suicide, not to accept francis dick tense. that's over. people in my li are excited to welcome russian for of her minister, said j love rove in his visit to the country. the governmental molly in his pitman praise the took the 1st of its kind by a wash and fallen off her minister to our country. this high level visit is in line with the political, a choice made by the transitional government to expand and diversify strategy partnership. in accordance with the plan, simpler keys. now guiding public actually money or are sheil molly? are in tell c fighting their ties. recently. this partnership,

which is being em related to the primary concern, the field of defense and security. given the security situation that money has been going for, for several years. this corporation has become even more dense since the authorities of a transition took the sovereign and decision in 2021 to diversify partners in terms of defense and security. that choice is thus made by money have always a washer, to a rank of fatigue, partner in the fight against om till. his group and cross border organized crimes, a visit to confirmed vigour relations with russia, and to call familiar of him reduced this. we france, which is definitely in disgrace in this part of africa. this comes as molly was accused to deal with a private company, violence group, which western media in africa portray as notorious. but my leon government

dismisses the claims my he has previously said raso forces in the country are not mysteries, but toilers helping local troops with equipped men bought from russia. after all, we france live in miley and worth fling ties. we've been marco, the country leaves new allies and partners, which can be more reliable, russia pools, it can be one wiser rule. artie by michael was the head of the non us republic says the russian forces have gained a strategic advantage in northern and eastern parts of the embattled city of arts. him ask, also known as backward. thus, as russian troops have been advancing on ukrainian positions across the front line, as ortiz, mariah garcia reports, kiev admit,

bob motor is on the brink, rushes. wagner group has launched an assault from 3 directions, north, east, and south, who usually miss it though arthur will get out of this hail, cold bot. net. it's old burning wood barely got out in small groups. i'll command is done care by us. i'm telling it to you like it is so that we lost more people to day to death for injured in half an hour. these are all who are left. it's hel there, nor simply how i'm telling you. much sued of the battle for bachman has been utterly savage. it is claimed thousands, if not tens of thousands of ukrainian troops killed in the injured, rare, sleeps from ukrainian journalists and troops paint a terrible picture. yeah, alice, i spent people who transport the dead and wounded out of back night and they told me that according to their estimates, and i'm prepared ukraine and fight to survive in backward for only 4 hours on the front line. yes. that's

a very negative statistic. i think they survive longer in zappa rogia than yet. can le ganske russian forces are pushing forward slowly but surely. ah ah lease is the 2 s for 2 lip, a $240.00 millimeter mortar used to level fortifications. remember with blue with the full ah, i may be huge and they certainly are,

but they function much like they're smaller cousins and those are read regular more does cell mine is launched out of the tube flies in an arc and lands on target with the ammunition that they're using now are those mines are rocket assisted, meaning that they can cover much greater distances. ah, it is somewhat rare to a v. i think 2 of these guns falling together. one is usually pretty enough. mm. but it's a little finishing us to nothing remains of the enemy's positions of the shot. this system fire strictly at major targets and leave nothing handing the 2 lip east.

just one of the weapons that ukrainian troops and nationalists are running from in bachman and elsewhere. and every day, more weapons and vehicles arrive, rushes, military, industrial complex is in overdrive rent. the key of understands time. he's not on its side more. i'd gas v of i t look on squeezen and that's all for now. be sure to check out our t. v dot com for all the latest breaking news and updates. we'll see right back here at the top of the hour. ah ah, when this conflict ends and it will end, it must get. there will be again, commercial relationships. they'll be social relate.
