What’s it like in Syria one month on from the earthquakes? – BBC News

It’s more than four weeks since devastating earthquakes tore apart much of Southern Turkey and North West Syria, killing at least 50,000 people.

The worst of the aid crisis is in North West Syria, which is held by rebel and jihadist forces in the civil war. Last month the UN’s relief chief Martin Griffiths admitted that the organisation had “so far failed the people in northwest Syria.”

What is the situation there now? Mike Thomson reports for Newsnight.
