And we have not, we have yet to see the damage or thoughts, but uh we were getting updates all the lights, starting from the tickets over about the transfer back there, which were far away from the at the center. But it was still Strong Enough to wake up. The majority of the population people spent the night outside your home. Worried about the more trim is at the end of the week. But you by the amount of cash and the region dropped, of ease of use at the time it was expensive uh of the ad building the lot the uh, parts of the house. Medina, which is a World Heritage unit. So sites right. But, but the opposite of damage is uh, in the, in the region around a bit of a rocky and mounted area so much. And i just want to ask them very quickly, you mentioned the fact that people again decided to spend the night outside. As far as you know, have there been any more aftershocks and, or people still worried as the hours passed, the people were extremely worried at night. But as hours went by, the people went home, especially a robot and kind of the bank. That was our cash updates. I was getting crew products and i with this is that people continue to people spend the night outside of the National Institute sort of geopolitics, updated later thing that they want more time is, but they were not as not as the hardware as detectable. But yeah, the main, the, the main hit was the one that occurred close to midnight. That terrified the majority of the population. And that there is a, theres a, a sense of the real tragedy as the early hours of going to and with, with more casualties expected. Obviously, you know, as there are 2 people stop under rubble and many of the villages adopt this mountain. And i expect that the number to go that much activity, much higher. The most of, most of you mentioned the fact that you were on your way on route to a point there in merrick ash a. How is the travel going . Is it easy to drive or you or you actually on the streets driving or how, how are you making this trip . Uh yeah. Um heading there with the with our teeth or uh the ac team in morocco. Uh, so were, were still on the highway that connect the cause of like a, with my cache. And it seems that you know, of all the places thats traffic than usual at this time of the day. But from what im seeing online is that, that the, the, the, the dusty and the small roads connecting those villages is where the real trouble is. And theres been a lot of traffic and some periods of destroyed throat doctor, which obviously complicates the rescue efforts. Understood that is a journalism besides l show many, many, many things World Leaders are gathering in the indian capital in new delhi for the g. 20 summit, indian Prime Minister and the ranger mode. He kicked off the weekend summit by welcoming the African Union as the groups newest, permanent member leaders are expected to address a range of issues from Climate Change to the war in ukraine. The g. 20 is a group of 19 of the worlds leading economies, plus the European Union. The leaders of china and russia are not attending the summit. Dw, still, the bureau chief agreed that she might is at the summit. She told us more about what to expect today to. Hi, michael. Well, the leaders have actually gathered in this building just behind me and the tools have started Prime Minister more the welcome to the leaders and he made his opening remarks. The 1st thing he said was that he expressed his condolences for the people who with kids in the of quick and more russell. And then he made another significant announcement is going to be g 20 plus one. As of today, he invited the African Union to become a permanent member of the g 20. That is a significant because every decision at the g 20 has to be by consensus, every member state and the European Union had to re to this decision. And there was widespread support for this, and this is a historic decision for india because as you mentioned, he wanted the global south to be sent to stage in the india g 20 presidency. And this is a significant out. Ill have to come there and be also of course india is trying to promote inclusiveness, Decisive Action and a blue are to release them and they want different aspects. What the global south is sent to state, for example, in reforming Multi Lateral banks and Financial Institutions like the i in math and the was bank. So they are well in favor of helping the emoji economies. So youve got some real news coming out of the summit already. A shooting pain is not coming instead, basing has sent a chinese premier leach young, who arrived in delhi a couple of hours ago to what extent is that to do with china strain ties with india. So what is the secret . The china and india have the screen ties and they have been screened for a while almost about 3 years when they had a very beautiful confrontation in, in, in the north, in galvan. But that is nothing new. The 2 liters, and shes in pink and dr. Mr. Moody met at the brick summit in south africa just a short while ago, and they had a brief meeting this. So they will hopes that things had improved between the 2 sides. And also, even though this is richard confrontation of the border, india and china have decided to keep the channels of communication open Ministry Tools have been going on the portal to my de escalation. And what is also surprising about this decision by and the chinese president , dr. Come with the just very last minute. The china only confirmed earlier this week that the president a, she didnt think was not coming to denny. The is also a michael, another underlying fact. Both india and china would like to be leaders of the global south. And by india, by making the global south as the top of the agenda at this g 20 summit is sending a message to china. Its a message may be china, doesnt like me. Im going to one imagines that ukraine will be discussed, of course, but any joint statement will be difficult to agree on. Despite the absence of vladimir put in, can we expect anything substantive on the war to come out of this summer . The windows one use paper headline which summed up the situation really well. It said the word is here, but red is the was on ukraine. And that exemplifies actually the deep divisions that exist within members of the g 20 not the lead negotiator for india. I mean the cons who is just a we spoke yesterday and said that is a draft communicate which is being sent to the latest, the latest have to go through that and then either accepted or for for some revisions. So this seems to be very close. Everybody is, nobody wants to be a d break at this time, but the divisions are serious for china. I have said it would like a fruitful outcome. America say that would be it spot. Instead of a novels, the foreign minister of russia has accused the g 7 and the United States are putting pressure on india to come to a consensus, which is in its favor. But he was said he would support any compromise language. So everybody is making law speech at times to come to a Significant Community and come to a conclusion, but theres also fostering going on. So we dont know whats going to happen at the end of this. We know at the end of the day, they have narrow differences, but whether they can close the gap remains to be seen, remains to be seen.
