there are also light class and middle class and rescue teams.ight class rescuers are able to cope with complex emergencies, but can only work in their own country, the middle class are specialists who have the right to work abroad, but their resources are more modest than those of the heavy class group. there are only 58 certified rescue teams in the world. the heavy class was confirmed by 35 of them, that is , the belarusian bison is a rescue team, similar to which there are only 3.5 dozen on the planet and in the event of a large-scale natural disasters. all hope for them is an earthquake. for example, one of the most powerful destructive disasters. this is the highest level of danger and intensity of work for rescuers in the aftermath of such an emergency, you cannot act at your own discretion. it requires work, according to a single international standard, it is necessary that the technique of the team meet the general requirements, there must be a clear organization of interaction with the host country from colleagues from other countries.

meanwhile, international relief efforts are getting underway. countries around the world are sending rescue teams and supplies to the effected regions. ah hello, i'm terry martin. good to have you with us too powerful earthquakes have killed more than 4000 people in turkey and syria. rescue efforts are ongoing, but the death toll is expected to rise further. the initial $7.00 magnitude tremor was centered north of the turkish city of ghazi, untapped it cause destruction stretching along turkeys. southern border from the mediterranean eastwards, also affecting parts of northern syria emergency cruise had been working in freezing temperatures to find survivors. the district of georgia, this is what they've been hoping for. for hours a rescuer carries little say now about the rubble of the collapse building and cut a man. brush bystanders keep shouting, the child is saved. then the rescuer breaks down in tears. ah, in atlanta to the search for survivors, went on all day. if you can shout, make yourself heard the rescue as hang on every movement on every sound. what's this that was wrong? we keep hea

the initial mckenzie wright, i'm international rescue teams. i to be on the ground in all areas of start. i wanted to ask you who will coordinate the response to what extent will the reluctance of international actors to deal with serious government and support non governmental organizations directly lead to a botched response. therefore we need to create a coordination mechanism. how to do that. there are, there are different ways. one point was that it was the un which are that was doing that for the nation. but unfortunately, as i mentioned that doug has been completely heads and therefore we cannot rely on on the hub, attempted to be able to, to coordinate the aid for the, for the northwest or the country. now, syria has appealed to the civil sort of protection mechanism within the jerky hasn't been for the same protection mechanism. so the eco d, g eco can lead us if there is a political will within the european union to basically lead the coordination effort. the entry of international rescue has already people on the ground in damascus,

these are the turkish rescue teams. and so far, nearly 7000 international rescue teams have arrived and they have been in the, in the field a trying to rescue those people trapped on the drugs. and they are going to be more coming. and ever they more international aid and more international search and rescue teams are arriving and trickier. now across the board of northern syria, 6 trunks carrying aid from the united nations have arrived. it's the 1st convoy to reach rebel held areas in the country since earthquakes bosses dana hold, reports much more help is needed. lives lost, shattered by mondays, earthquakes, northwest, syria's humanitarian crisis, made worse. the region was hit just as hard as cities across southern turkey. but here, the people devastated by over a decade of war. wait for help. already. millions, live intense. the quake has made tens of thousands more homeless. but it, it can hold 9 members of our family and living in this team. we lost our homes, we need everything. clothes, food, the children are

so i've already sent the 1st international rescue team into jim dennis and d. i was under control of the position, but international rescue teams are needed. it all affected areas for that. there might be a need to coordinate with the certain government. but i think the main after there would be this here in our bed questions, and they should be the in july of the international community, not the government in damascus. and through, sorry, i say international rescue teams can make their way into my little city, which are the most effective areas and measure in government control. now the challenge professor, as mentioned, is 4 areas under control of the salvation. so do go back into the particularities over the northwest, sorry. it's not really one area, 2 areas is greater lab that is under control of this elevation government, which is an h d. i sponsored government and the areas under direct control which are controlled by these julian, intra government that is from the to the position. so for our direct control, it took us government aid is not really a prob

and despite being exhausted, after more than 40 hours beneath the rubble, when the rescue team took her out. first thing that he says she said was police rescued. please save my father as well because but her father was very much close to her and he was also ally later during that through the night. her father also has been pulled out from the rivals, but 2 of the other family members unfortunately, could not survive. so beneath these robles that are still tens of fuel and probably some of them still alive here. you can see the man, his name is met and mad says dead. then maria says that 4 of food off his family members are still bitter down there. there is arrivals, his, his wife, his son, and her 2 of his daughters are right over there. and there's data ruffles, and the rescue teams are trying to to, to, to fool them out. however, it's not clear whether they are alive or death right. no over there. you can see that the rescue teams are steal. i'm not trying to to fool out some of the people's over there as well, and they're joined by the family members as well because the families are

the officials say we need search and rescue teams later on possibly medical support, but the prior now is it still search and rescue operation? and you mentioned earlier that there is a great willingness to help, but people or q and chewing up at apple. it's trying to get to the places where they can help. so what about non governmental support? can you tell us how the civil society in turkey, in general is responding to the situation while the country is mobilizing them in their interest, collective shock and collective realization. this is a once in a century challenge that the nation is facing. people have been coming up to off a blog here, nist ambled as being long queues organized by the municipalities. also people have been collecting blankets, warm clothes because they, they realize how many of these people in the most, everything, and they are facing these bitter conditions on top of that. people have been also going to stumble, ample to offer assistance, special like bill. and they will be flown into the, the region by the military. i'm also the municipalities here in this sam

thought that we're cold rescue teams joined by the military as well. i'm also families are also joining the rescue air force. i was just talking to one of the guy who help actually the chasm cut out the disabled man to be rescued. he himself has lots of his family members found this collab building, his sister, his uncle, and his, his own. they are still on there. there's robert here, so this is just one of the themes in the city that you can see across the cities. and you will see towns of thought seems the tragedies are unfolding here. and the families are anxiously waiting days and nights, particularly during the night. the weather conditions are extreme, however, they said that they're not going to leave here without getting their loved ones out from the levels. however, the route the time is running out and the hopes are fading soda and cut them on. mush. stephanie decker has more on rescue operations in the town of no diary in guessing chaps robins at this point. if anyone is pulled alive from the rubble, it's seen as a bit of a miracle we've been

already in tasks and international relief efforts are underway. countries around the world ascending rescue teams and a massive amount of supplies. ah, i've been friends all and welcome officials say at least 5000 people have died in a series of earthquakes that have hit turkey and syria. rescue efforts are ongoing, but the death toll is expected to rise significantly. the united nation says in total, up to $23000000.00 people could be affected. the initial $7.00 magnitude tremor was centered north of the took the city of gassy and tap it caused destruction stretching along toki southern border and parts of northern syria. the dimensions of the disaster are enormous, but thousands of lives have also been saved. so with the scale of damage is monumental. so 2 is the attempt to save lives a day after the earthquakes shook. this part of turkey in this neighbourhood rescue workers have some success and confirm they found a survivor relief for the residence and for the rescue as to seeing the fruit of their labor. it's a delicate operation trying to find people in the wreckage. rescuers have to figure

>> of course, security forces in the region, but when the international rescue teams reach to the area, the actual security forces can return to their actual work and concentrate on security as well because now the military and other security forces are concentrating on search-and-rescue, so terrorist organizations are using this as an opportunity, and the current administration also, to deteriorate it, so that's why i think more search-and-rescue teams and other humanitarian aid materials should reach to the point and secure -- acuity forces and maintain their security as well. >> you say various groups are taking advantage of the situation. to what extent will the syrian government try to do the same and take advantage of the situation for its own ends? >> for sure. all the political parties may try to use it, but it is not very easy as well because they already themselves have huge problems in their own area as well, so i don't think that they will try to use this as an opportunity to attack and live -- it live region -- is an opportunity to attack idlib region and other places. som

she had been rescued after 40 hours under the rubble rescued by the teams there as she was still alive. so despite been so exhausted after 40 hours beneath the rubble of the 1st thing that she said was please rescue my father as well. and while she was being pulled out of the rebels, her mother was waiting for her and she burst into the tier. so she has been taken to the hospital. busy and later her father also has been rescued. however, 2 other family members could not survive last night. so beneath under this, rob was that are still hands of people and probably some of them are still alive. on the other hand here, just a little bit ago, i met a family here and there a guy whose name was, is ma'am at over 60 years old. and he said just on that, this robles that are 3 members of his family. still under his robles, his wife, his son and his daughter. so he doesn't know whether they're alive or that yet. however, she has been waiting here for more than 48 hours through the call. the nice harsh weather's here. so over there or so, you can see that the heavy lifting machine that is just st
