How Syria's Civil War Slows Earthquake Relief
What A Day - A podcast by Crooked Media
The death toll from the earthquakes that have devastated Turkey and Syria passed 21,000 people on Thursday, with many more injured and without shelter. Dr. Houssam al-Nahhas, a Middle East and North Africa researcher at Physicians for Human Rights, tells us about the difficulties of getting relief to people in both countries. And in headlines: federal officials disclosed more information about the Chinese spy balloon that crossed the U.S. last week, an evacuation order was lifted near the scene of a train derailment in Ohio, and South Korea’s parliament impeached the country’s top safety official over last year’s fatal Halloween crowd crush.
