 After spending four days in the wreckage, a woman and infant from Turkey and Syria were saved.


On October 30, 2019, a powerful earthquake struck the border region between Turkey and Syria, killing at least 40 people and injuring hundreds more. In the days that followed, rescue teams worked tirelessly to search for survivors in the rubble. On November 3, four days after the earthquake, a miracle occurred when a new-born baby and its mother were pulled from the wreckage alive. The baby, named Azra, had been born just one day before the earthquake struck. The mother and daughter were found in the ruins of a collapsed building in the city of Şanlıurfa, in the southeastern region of Turkey. They were taken to a nearby hospital, where they were treated for minor injuries. The rescue mission was a collaborative effort between Turkish and Syrian rescue teams, who worked together to locate and save the pair. It was a rare moment of unity between the two countries, who have been in a state of conflict since 2011. The rescue of Azra and her mother was a moment of hope in a tragedy that has affected hundreds of people in the region. It is a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always a glimmer of light.

Polls are delayed because CJP asserts that the highest court cannot compel the government to engage in discussions.

  Polls are delayed because CJP asserts that the highest court cannot compel the government to engage in discussions. The delay of polls due to the Chief Justice of Pakistan's (CJP) assertion that the highest court cannot compel the government to engage in discussions has raised concerns about the country's democratic process and the role of the judiciary in ensuring fair and transparent elections. The CJP's assertion comes as a blow to those who have been advocating for free and fair elections in Pakistan. The delay in polls, even if it is due to legal technicalities, has the potential to undermine public trust in the electoral process and fuel allegations of government interference in the judiciary. The argument put forward by the CJP is that the court has no power to compel the government to engage in discussions on electoral reforms or any other matter. This assertion is based on a narrow interpretation of the Constitution, which grants the executive branch of...
