he gave me his reaction to the incident in tokyo.markable that we have witnessed what is the first whole loss of an airbus a350. this is the world's latest generation aircraft. and to the airlines that have ordered this aircraft, it is still new to them. now it is state of the art. and airbus prides itself with its flagship, the 350, in being one of the safest aircraft to ever exist in the history of flight itself. and i would argue that today's accident in tokyo and from what we have learnt so far, the accident itself and the way in which almost 400 people have been able to safely evacuate this aircraft is a testament to that safety. it's that combined with the fact that it's japan airlines, because in the industry, japan airlines is known for being a leader with safety. and, you know, air travel is the safest form of transport globally. thankfully, we have an amazing industry that is incredibly safe. but japan airlines specifically is known for being forensic with its safety. and just ten days ago, i was with the japan airlines del

suranjana tewari, bbc news, tokyo.en speaking with professor ed galea, who is the director of the fire safety engineering group at the university of greenwich. i asked him what he made of how the cabin crew responded to the incident to evauate the passengers. well, the cabin crew did an absolutely astounding job in successfully evacuating all passengers and crew from the aircraft. they had a really difficult, challenging situation. this was not an easy evacuation because you only had three exits that were serviceable. so even in the certification of the aircraft, they would've had four exits available, and they would've beenin available, and they would've been in operable condition. in this particular incident, the only had three exits available, and they weren't in an optimal distribution or in an optimal circumstances.— circumstances. saw how remarkable _ circumstances. saw how remarkable that - circumstances. saw how remarkable that was - circumstances. saw how remarkable that was it l circumstances. saw how i remar

tokyo across the island about 180 miles away, the earthquake absolutely was felt in tokyo by tens of millions of people, but the epicenter here, the ishikawa prefecture here, the population there is much lower, it's a prefecture with a population of about one million people right here, the major city has fewer than half a million people. still there are tens of thousands of people inside the extreme danger zone. let's talk more about the threats they're seeing, particularly the tsunami threat. this is the area of greatest concern right there. with us now is a professor of gio physics at the georgia institute of technology. professor, through for being with us. what are you watching most closely this morning? >> well, you have already talked about a tsunami, that is one of the things we have to be really watching out, but another thing i should point out is that because of the events of this size that we expect lots of aftershocks and as you probably know houses in japan are mostly wooden building structures, so they can withstand some of the shaking, but if you have continuous vibrat

let's go to hanako montgomery in tokyo. and we're only getting a rough picture here because the communications are really bad and the power stations had to be closed down because they were under threat. >> reporter: yeah, max, as you said, this was a very powerful earthquake and already a tsunami warning triggered for the entire west coast of japan. we also know it was a shallow earthquake. and this is significant because with shallow earthquakes, they could potentially be more det destructive and powerful and they could trigger massive tsunamis. we already know that major tsunami warning has been issued in the city of close to the epicenter, the first major tsunami warning issued since 2011 when 22,000 people were killed in an eararthquake and subsequent tsunami. >> and in terms of that air, as we understand it, i was speaking to a seismologist earlier, earthquakes tend to be on the eastern coast and this is on the western coast. does that mean that it is less prepared or more prepared for an event like this? >> reporter:

circumstances, this is the most successful olympics for women's wrestling to be held in tokyo during era. two belarusians were on the podium: irina kurochkina and the heroine of our story. then no one except her knew that the next start would happen more than 2 years later, and it would again become very noticeable for belarusian sports. silver at the world championship 2023. by the time of the world championship, vanessa is a mother of two children, time is scheduled minute by minute, but the training work is programmed at the genetic level, because the athlete herself wonderful. right now, on new year's eve, kaladinska doesn't think about stopping. vanessa last week became the winner of the prestigious special national award of the president of belarus, the belarusian sports olympus, which only adds positive emotions. this is very pleasant, unexpected. you always work, do your job, but evaluation of this work is, of course, always pleasant and joyful. a lot of effort, a lot of aspiration, desire is put into this, when it is evaluated, and somehow. including rewards there, of course

this earthquake was felt on land across the region, even as far as tokyo. we are seeing video coming in capturing the moments this quake hit. you can see waves coming on land, large signs inside a train station shaking, people running for safety and store shelves rattling. homes have collapsed and others have been damaged. local officials confirm that people have been injured by fallen debris and taken to the hospital. at least six people so far reportedly trapped beneath fallen rubble inside homes. while we have seen this downgrade in the severity of the tsunami warning, meteorologists have measured the highest wave around 4 feet high but say they could see waves exceeding 16 feet. at this point, some 33,000 people are without power. we know that shelters are going up in the area, providing people with blankets, a warm place to stay, and needed supplies. right now, government officials say nuclear plants in the area have not seen irregularities, but you can bet that's something they'll be watching. >> again, that is west of tokyo. so, that would mean that

stephen engle is with us out of tokyo to talk about what to expect today.en: we were on the phone waiting for the division from the bank of japan governors on whether they will exit negative interest rates for the first time, a hike since 2007. none of the economists we have spoken to, nor the next guest in the next block i have standing next to me expect the bank of japan to make any changes today. again, looking for any hints from the governor at the press conference at 3:30 as to whether there is sustainable inflation down the road by april, is when most economists expect some sort of hike, there will be sustainable inflation backed by wage growth. the annual wage negotiations between labor unions and companies begin -- or should be culminated by mid-march. that's why many argue that perhaps in april hike would make more sense. right now, we are not expecting any rate hike of any exit of the main policy rate that has been in place for more than a decade right now. what we will also get is the quarterly economic outlook from the bank of japan. there was a

and that means that tokyo is spared. that's great news because of course, tokyo is one of the most densely populated areas on the planet. next, japan has one of the strongest programs to teach children and young people how to evacuate, how to deal with these earthquakes, and also, it's building codes are some of the strongest on the earth. but even with all this good news, we have to realize that yes, people have died, and bodies are still being recovered from the rubble and the accident is not over. >> it certainly isn't, and there are going to be injuries. no way around that. what is your main concern at this point, when you are thinking about aftershocks and people get overconfident and they think that they can go back to a normal life again and then an aftershock hits them. we've had so far, over six major aftershocks, and they are unpredictable. you don't know when they will happen and they could be as strong as a 7, so overconfidence is one danger. we have to be prepared for the unknown because earthquakes do obey

and that sense what happened today and tokyo sunday the airport was when it comes to accidents and civil aviation well within the room of statistics probability. but the fact that all passengers and crew escaped this fireball alive defied all odds. after crashing with a smaller coast guard machine, the airbus a 350 caught fire and hurled down the runway engulfed in flames. 5 crew members of the coast guard plain did not make it. tonight. we asked just how it was possible for people to get off the air bus largely unharmed. and we look at what this crash can teach us about commercial aviation. and the role passengers can play in their own survival in an emergency medical, fairly cumberland. and this is the day the 23rd that the semester and while they are as far as possible, the run right fly is secretary should be able to say roughly the far far few pads. so everything right? the georgia, 379 people, including 367 passengers and 12 crew members with safely evacuated target. finally, to start to 2nd part as a caesar chief, that also coming up for russia continues its new year campaign of t
