Ancient sites devastated, buildings reduced to rubble and a frantic search for survivors. Resources are pouring into morocco and we are on the ground. Alarming alliance. North koreas Alleader Will Tral to meet vladimir putin. The u. S. Warns pyongyang will pay a price. What that does price mean . And slipping past police. Officials in pennsylvania expanding the search area for an escaped killer after admitting the convict was able to elude them again. Theyre worried about what he might do next. Were following the major developing stories and many more all coming into cnn news central. Were following devastation and desperation in morocco where now over 2600 people are dead after that 6. 8magnitude earthquake struck on friday night. It was the strongest quake to hit that country in well over a century. Terrain has significantly come indicated rescue and recovery efforts. Roads leading to some of the hardesthit villages are destroyed. You can see the Moroccan Armed fo forces arriving at the epicenter just a few hours ago, taking days to get there. In some towns, people have been stranded for three days begging for more help from the government. You can smell the corpses everywhere. Its a shame the authorities didnt help these people. Some people have received aid, tents or food. However, some villages have not received anything. I hope that the authority and Civil Society will shore more solidarity in these areas. Many residents are living in makeshift camps and officials are Building Triage Field Hospitals near some of the villages as a stopgap until larger Transit Routes are cleared. Sam kylie is on the ground speaking to survivors and tracking those relief efforts. Reporter another victim buried. Return to the earth that killed when it shook. More than 2,000 people have perished in the worst moroccan earthquake in over a hundred years. Most of the deaths were in villages in the Atlas Mountains where homes cracked and crumbled late on friday night. The pancaking of these buildings down a side street here killed 25 people. Three or four are still missing, believe buried in the rubble. And this is a pattern thats been repeated throughout this province. And it looks very often like theres been some kind of air strike, the collapsing buildings here leaving holes as if theyve been hit by russian bombs in ukraine. But this has been an all too natural disaster. At least three elderly people have been entombed here and a fourth guest is missing. After the quake, sammy called his parents for a day and a half. It ran out until the battery died too. Im here because i have lost two of my best things that i have in this life. My parents, my father and my mother. I have lost them here. Reporter his grief turns to anger at the government as it does for so many here. They have no plan, only they have words. Only that they have words. Thats all. Reporter aid is arriving, but slowly. Nearby, authorities tell me that 27 people were killed in the quake and 1,200 lost their homes. They have said that when they were in the house, she was in the bath when this series of explosions broke out. They said there was no shaking of the ground. Shes saying it felt like a blast from an automatic rifle, that this was like a sense that the the place had been hit by a war. They had no idea that they were suffering from an earthquake. Luckily for them, they evacuated their family very rapidly. Nobody in their family was killed. But in the village, there was 27 people were killed. The house is now abandoned. A team of local women were led to find food and shelter for the homeless before any aid arrived. All the food here, the result of private donations. Many villages here remain isolated, roads cut by landslides. Relief operations will focus on getting to them. Firefighters consider searching for bodies beneath the hotel. Their conclusion is disappointing. Amid shocks and shattered masonry, its too dangerous to rescue the dead. So for now, sammys parents will stay buried where they are. Our thanks to sam kylie for taking us Inside Of Morocco and that report. Sad scenes there. Right now also overseas, north Korean Leader kim jongun appears to be on this armored train bound for russia to meet with russian leader vladimir putin. A south korean Government Official tells cnn that kim is believed to be traveling about 80 miles from the north korean border inside of russia. The white house is urging north korea not to provide or sell arms to russia. As u. S. Officials warn that Arms Negotiations between those two countries are actively advancing. The Russian Defense minister visited north korea hoping to buy ammunition to bolster the war effort in ukraine. Russia running short there. U. S. Officials tell us there are Major Concerns about what north korea could get in return and pyongyang wants technical help not just for its Satellite Program but also nuclearpowered submarines. Melissa bell is following the story for us. Shes in zaporizhzhia, ukraine. Tell us more about this. Its not a sign of strength for russia to need north koreas help in the war at this point, but it appears to be getting it. Reporter it appears to be happening, jim. This is something that american officials have been warns aga against. The american Secretary Of State speaking to just what you mentioned, the fact that this doesnt bode terribly well for the russian president , that he should be scrambling to meet with kim jongun In Search Of Munition to fuel this war here in ukraine. The American Administration also saying urging pyongyang to stand by what had been public pronouncements that it would not be arming russia during this war in ukraine and yet as were hearing, this train that you mentioned that is set to carry some 20 bulletproof wagons, its not a fast train. What we understand, it will take it a good day to get to the meeting. Were hearing from the russian side that this meeting is going ahead in form of comments that has been made by Da Meet Ri Peskov Speaking of bilateral talks that are to go ahead and an official dinner thats to be held in kim jonguns honor. What we understand is that will be happening in vladivostok, each side has something they can expect from the other. On the russian side, very basic needs, those munitions that i mentioned a moment ago, but also some of the Raw Materials to help russia fuel its Defense Industrial base. On the other hand, pyongyang is after much more. Sophisticated weaponry, advanced satellites and nuclearpowered submarine capability. With each side looking to get something from these, these muchfeared talks seem to be going ahead, jim. No question. Comes the heels of russia reaching out to iran for help. Melissa belle in ukraine and the concern that these alliances grow, russia with iran, russia with north korea, and of course russia with china. And major implications for the front lines in ukraine. Lets get some perspective now with cedric layton. Hes a cnn military analyst. Colonel, weve heard a bit about what both sides might be getting from an agreement. Walk us through it. This is one of the key things as melissa was talking about, they want some stuff. So what does north korea want . They want satellite capabilities. Theyre looking for Something Like the gps system that we use, the russians use Something Else which is a Positioning System using satellites. They want to be able to use that so that they can drive their Weapons Systems to greater accuracy. They about want capabilities for nuclearpowered submarines because the north koreans have introduced another nuclear sub. Were sceptical whether it works. But they could potentially bring Nuclear Weapons closer to targets. Its a key element. How about the russian side . What youre looking at is a lot of different types of munitions. For russia, artillery is the god of war. So the north koreans conveniently have the same types of Weapon Systems that the russians have, at least the older systems that the russians use. And that includes the same caliber type of weapon, like a 152 millimeter rocket. That would be something the north koreans have in abundance. They could use some of their stockpile to help the russians with their efforts, of course, Raw Materials another big thing and, of course, rockets and missiles. Theyve been delivering them all the time. Finished products as well as the Raw Materials to make those products are key elements. Sure, the question i think on everybodys mind, including russia and north korea, potentially is what is the United States going to do. Jake sullivan saying north korea will pay a price. Sanctions havent really done much to move kim jongun. So what could the United States actually do here that would be effective . Yeah, so they sanctions are usually the weapon of choice, if you will, in this kind of a situation. The issue that you run into, though, is sanctions, as you mentioned, really run out of effectiveness. What could they do . We could mount, for example, a cyberattack against north korea. Not saying theyre going to do that. But that is something thats in our arsenal that we could potentially do. There are other things that we could do, potentially, that would get closer to a conflict with them. But i dont think we would go that far. But that is something that we would have to look at. We could also potentially go after other people that are connected to the north koreans, maybe chinese officials, chinese businessmen, people that are facilitating these kind of things and as well as russian businessmen that would be doing the same thing. And potentially some c clandestine options. Theres a dispute between mark milley and officials in kyiv over how much longer the ukrainian counteroffensive can last given that Weather Conditions are going to be changing soon. Yeah, thats mentioned in a statement to the bbc that he believes they have about 30 to 60 days of running room for the counteroffensive. Thats because of weather changing. Basically, what youre looking at, is in places like this, youve got, you know, cold fronts that would be coming into areas like here. Youve got all kinds of things that could change. And, of course, its a muddy season again. Just like the spring is. So one of the things they would be looking at is actually changing the way in which they would ramp up Weapon Systems to this area. I think the chairman was basically incorrect in saying that this was a time limit that the ukrainians have. But the ukrainians know best. The rhythms of the battlefield. With climate change, its highly likely that the fighting season is extended anyways. History has shown us that war in this part of the world can get especially messy. One more question, colonel. There was a comment from the secretary of the air force that raised a lot of eyebrows. Lets listen to that sound bite now. Were all talking about the fact that the air and space forces must change or we could fail to prevent and might even lose a war. Not the kinds of war we fought or have been fighting for the last 30 years, but a war between modern grade powers with the anonymous cost. China is preparing for a war and specifically for a war with the United States. Again, war is not inevitable. And no one can predict when or if it will occur. Our job is to deter that war and to be ready to win if it occurs. The Potential Linchpin of some conflict between the United States and china could be taiwan. What do you make of the statements from the secretary . Theyre very similar to statements that were made previously by the commander of air mobility command. He raised a bit of a ruckus, if you will, when he made comments saying that his troops need to be prepared for a war with china. The chinese reacted very strongly to that thinking that this is very belligerent rhetoric. The key thing to think about, the militarys job is to prepare for war no matter where that war is. China is one of the most likely countries that we would be fighting given the geopolitical environment and, of course, taiwan is one of the key areas that we would potentially be fighting over. And we have to be ready for that. So the secretarys comments are basically right on track for what he needs to do to prepare his forces, both the air force and the space force, in order to combat a very rising foe like china. Rising and conflict or tensions, i should say, continued to rise despite diplomatic outreach from the white house. Colonel, always a pleasure to get your perspective. Thank you very much. Thank you.

A new much wider search area and a new look for the escaped Pennsylvania Killer who has evaded capture for 12 days now. The photo on the right is what Police Say Danelo Cavalcante looks like now. Over the weekend, the 34yearold prison escapee somehow got past the Search Perimeter and he stole this delivery van and tried to make contact with some people that he knows asking for help. They were not home. We are going to learn more about this soon as well, though. Authorities are planning a News Conference here in the next hour. We have cnns Danny Freeman tracking all of this. Hes been on every turn of this manhunt. Danny, do authorities have an idea of where cavalcante could be . Reporter listen, the short answer is no. The Lieutenant Colonel keeps saying, if i knew where he was, i would go and arrest him right now. They are targeting the northern part of chester county. Its probably about 30 miles or so north of where the prison has been. But this is the State Of Play right now. They are not searching in the perimeter that they focused so much time on and they lost him once he slipped that perimeter. Let me explain, though. In order to really drill down on this importance of this moment in this case, you have to understand where we were back on friday. Remember, just a few miles from where we are at the command center, that was where the perimeter had been set up. There were the largest number of Law Enforcement officers that had been on the job for the entire man hunt on friday going into saturday. We saw people checking cars, checking trunks, thats the environment that cavalcante was able to escape. Lets talk a little bit about what we learned yesterday. Cavalcante slipped that perimeter and Law Enforcement said he was able to steal a van from a dairy farm nearby and it was because the keys were left in that van. Then he drove more than 20 miles to the phoenixville area and as you said, he tried to contact some of his known associates. The associates did not offer him help. But we did get insight into what he was doing because he was spotted on a ring doorbell camera. Clean shaven, now wearing a green hoodie. Yesterday, Law Enforcement found the van, it was abandoned, though, cavalcante was nowhere to be scene. I want you to take a listen to what a former roommate of cavalcante actually told one of cnns affiliates over the weekend. You can hear the concern in his voice. I have no idea he could do Something Like this. Like i said, he was someone super shy, really quiet. He would drink his beers on the weekend and make barbecue and working a lot. I cant sleep. I cant live my normal life. Everybody can feel safe again. And, yeah, he has to pay for what he did. Reporter now, of course, state police say they wish that this had not happened. They wish that cavalcante had not been able to slip their apartmen perimeter. But we have a lot of questions. Were expecting a Press Conference in a little less than an hour at the command post. Well bring some of those questions to them. Real quick, danny, last sighting of cavalcante was when and within the perimeter or outside . Reporter so the last official sighting that we know of was back on saturday night. It was that rin
