Turkey and Syria earthquakes: Doctors

Three doctors - one in Turkey, two in Syria - share what it has been like for them.

A week on from the Turkish and Syrian earthquakes, the UN aid chief says the focus is now turning to caring for survivors. We speak to doctors about what it has been like in their hospitals over the past week.

Thousands of homeless people are in temporary shelters while others in less accessible areas are still waiting for help. We speak to our correspondents about misery and anger among the survivors.

We also speak to an aid worker in the Syrian city of Aleppo.

In Israel, around 90,000 people have protested outside Israel's parliament in Jerusalem, against a controversial judicial judicial reform review proposed by the government. We speak to our correspondent there.
