Hunger during a pandemic warnings coronavirus restrictions could cause thousands more people to become malnourished in india. Ok lets start with a developing story one month after the explosion in beirut rescue teams have been digging into the ruins of a collapsed building there after finding signs of life underneath it scanning equipment has picked up indications of a pulse and breathing the search teams include volunteers from chile the disaster on august the 4th was caused by a large stockpiles of badly stored Ammonium Nitrate ignite sing at the port in beirut all than 200 people were killed 6000 were injured hundreds of thousands were left homeless is our correspondent near that search and rescue sites in beirut theyve been digging all night. How close to they think they might be. Close this is what we understand the search operation almost 24 hours ago it began when a dog as well as machines belonging to a team from chile who were really just surveying the damage to check the structure of the buildings detected what they said was a sign of life the advance machines that they had showed the presence of 2 bodies that its what they said they said initially that one bodies believed to be a corpse and the other one a possible survivor and a possible child what they detected was 18 breasts per minute but hope is fading quickly what we understand in the past hour another sensor test was conducted by the chilean Team Volunteers on the ground have told us that they now detected 2 breaths per minute its very hard for us to really independently confirm what is happening inside that building we see teams dig through the rubble come back outside check the machinery and go back in this has been going on for hours now People Holding on to hope within one month but at the same time i can tell you there is so much anger here people are furious many people have told us on august the 6th when president mccrone visited this area there were search dogs sniffing the rubble all around the area and people were saying that they found a somebody alive they found somebody alive underneath the rubble but nobody did anything about it in fact that building the rubble has been left on the street for a month now so nobody searched that building so there is anger at the authorities and also last night the authorities called off the search operation because they couldnt find a crane and it was the people of this area who got the crane that allowed the Search Operations to begin and as you say. A mom since the original yes since the original. Explosion and looking at the latest pictures as you were talking to us there its clear that as an event this is not over yet yes the explosion was 4 weeks ago but this is still going on for the people of beirut. Yes 191 People Killed 6500 people wounded many of them in Critical Condition many of them with life changing injuries many people lost their livelihoods this is this was an area full of restaurants and pubs people here just do not have the money to rebuild because the hospitality sector was already reeling under a very dire economic crisis the United Nations saying that 70000 people lost their jobs were talking about tens of thousands of people who are now homeless on able to rebuild their lives and the government which is cash strapped a government which has really been negligent and not presence on the ground it is the volunteers the different local n. G. O. S as well as international n. G. O. S that are helping the people pick up the pieces of their lives and theres also 8 the hidden scars the trauma many people are traumatized in this city many people cannot even hear the sound of any sound and theyre living on the edge. Its been a month since the explosion of beirut port and many like north are still struggling to cope this is my 1st time i mean i am off to the explosion at the time of the explosion i was feeling really bad that i couldnt go down and help people but i was just very afraid of leaving my home even though the blast rips through neighborhoods like. Killing nearly 200 people and wounding 1000 but some injuries cant be seen what is a matter of concern for ras now what he called the healing scars what you dont see. The blast was lebanons latest calamity. Many businesses already reeling from a deep economic crisis were impacted United Nations estimates 70000 people have been put out of work thats 12000 households lebanon was also on the verge of a humanitarian crisis with more than 50 percent of its people in poverty. Is thankful that he and his family survived the explosion their home is just a kilometer from the port they struggle to carry on like so many others they rely on aid agencies for handouts and. My car was destroyed or used to be a doctor i was able to feed my family and buy milk and diapers for my daughter going to the focus came to assist our situation 3 days after the blast they havent. Damages are in the billions of Dollars Money the nearly bankrupt state doesnt have decades of corruption has been blamed not just for the economys collapse but the port blast many lebanese blame the political elite for this explosion so far mainly ports and custom employees have been arrested as part of the investigations but senior officials havent been questioned even though they were aware almost 3000 tons of Ammonium Nitrate were stored in unsafe conditions in a warehouse i expected to president. The president. Today in prison to put themselves in custody until the investigation dependently from their presence lebanese authorities have rejected calls for an International Investigation into one of the Worlds Largest nonnuclear explosions in history and see if you are angry. And knew. You were sitting here at home and you. Are nearing danger. I mean. I want to go through with. Everything to see you stephen thank you i dont even know i mean nor is not alone in her despair and misery its been crisis after crisis in what is now a broken country. So a lot of pain little faith in the lebanese led investigations the new Prime Minister appointed just a few days ago but many people really have little faith that he can bring about the change that is needed to end decades of corruption and mismanagement really that has led this country to the calamity that is facing zina do please stay close well come back to you if there are any developments in the meantime thank you so much out of the in beirut we move on ships boats and aircraft from sir lanka and india trying to put a big fire on board an oil supertanker its been burning for 2 days now off these for lankan coast the tankers carrying 2000000 barrels of oil pictures from Sri Lankas Air force show the fire is mainly in the engine room not in the oil cargo area Mel Fernandez has the latest from colombo on efforts to contain the flames.
