in nepal into the war. a new crane with promises of money and fast track of russian citizenship. the hello, i'm terry martin. good, heavy with is a massive earthquake is hit taiwan, causing damage and knocking out power to tens of thousands. the strongest earthquake in 25 years with center. it's near the city of while yet on taiwan eastern coast. at least 7 people have been killed in more than 700 injured govern. government officials say over 70. people are trapped under the rubble after dozens of buildings and tunnels collapse. powerful 7.5 magnitude quake initially prompted . so nami warnings for japan and the philippines. those warnings have now been lifted. for the latest,

let's cross to our east asia bureau and ty pay in our corresponded there. james change or james. this was a powerful quake. tell us more about his impact as well as you mentioned that some of those statistics really concerning. some number of people already confirmed to have died. hundreds injured and the expectation is about number could rise in the coming hours. i would say more concerns about the figure of the number of people trump's currently on the buildings could rise even further. now, why is this this, this, the why, the sense over the city closest to the sense of really, this is a city of some, 300000 people. so that's why the majority of the casualties are being reported. just to give you a sense of what this area of taiwan looks like, it's extremely mountainous. and some of the people who are currently trapped, for example, international call to the city of thompson go, which is why the urban land slides urban broke forth. that was one hypo who was actually killed because of a rough and full and in this small mountainous region. so this is where the

majority of people, the majority of the emergency response and results. is it being targeted now? but um, yeah, people across taiwan very so reading from, from the magnitude of this as quite a bit, the most popular one and 25 years. so taiwan is really in particularly the east of the country. what about other countries in the region understand? so natalie warnings were issued for a wide area. yeah, absolutely. in the media optima for this task of craig, there was, you know, i mean the warnings in japan and the philippines potentially know. he now free sideshow. this is a part of south west in japan, which is much closer to taiwan. some of those japanese islands actually, and a few 100 kilometers away from taiwan is main lines. some of those seen all the ways actually reaching those islands within the hour of the main quake striking fortunately, it seems like in japan, in the philippines, the damage has been fairly limited, and life is returning to

a relative no minus the buzz neighboring countries, including china, japan and the philippines have expressed concern about the level of destruction. and so i want to said they stand ready to provide supports if it's we need so far as these need to fill that region, of course is no stranger to earthquakes. all our people are generally well prepared for earthquakes, their james the, on the whole, this is, this is something that's hard when these people are fairly used to. it's one of the most seismically active regions of the wells, as quakes are fairly relative. i've probably run a common occurrence. one of this nature, as i mentioned, is not taking place uh for 25 years, but um, in 1999, this was the last really strong line of credit. there's trucks, high one, some, 2000 people were killed and not the quaking tens of thousands of buildings were damaged. and it was really off of this as quaking, tie one that much, most straight regulation in terms of, of the great priest buildings were implemented. and that's why we haven't seen the

level of destruction from us. crazy anti one since one in 1999. that being said, this is a really significant as quakes of magnitude and something above really does pose. i'm significant challenges for, for buildings and infrastructure. and there is concern, of course, in the coming hours that about death told him the number of injuries couldn't rise change. thank you very much. that was our correspond to james traitor and tell type it down to the war. and guys, the world leaders have condemned and this rarely strike on a humanitarian con boy. there that killed 7 people working for the n g o world central kitchen, for nationals from australia pole in the u. k. in the us or among the victims. us president joe biden says he was outraged and heart broken about the tragedy while australia slammed. the attack is completely unacceptable. israel has blamed to strike on miss identification and called it a grave mistake. un secretary general antonio guitars also contend to condemn the

attack and has called for an immediate cease far. the devastating is rarely strikes that skilled world simple kitchen personnel yesterday being the number of days what good skill will be in this conflict? 196, including more than 175 members of all new n stuff. these is uncomfortable, but it is an inevitable result of the way the warranty is being conducted. he doesn't use tanya. kramer's in jerusalem covering the story i asked her earlier if international criticism is likely to put further pressure on israel's prime minister to change his gauze and strategy to watson. this is still a to see because we've heard a lot of this international in criticism, a lot of international pressure on the is rarely cabinet to protect or to do more to protect a civilian given the high death toll in golf and then the civilian population. but

that also, of course, includes humanitarian workers that doing essential work there to bring this much needed age to the civilian population. and we heard, you know, this is this, this pressure is not really always reflected on the ground and the military efforts . there seem most of the times a take a precedent, although israel says it's it does enough to protect civilians. now you enter officials here in jerusalem have said after the incident that this is not an isolated incident, but it's of course, the most serious, the most tragic one. but that, that needs to be done more to have a working mechanism to make it possible to that these convoys can go into garza and deliver the 8 that's needed. and also that you meant determine 8 workers are protected on the international humanitarian little. so you look at
