The initial magnitude 7.8 tremor early on Monday brought down buildings as people slept and was followed by a magnitude 7.6 earthquake hours later amid several aftershocks.

The United States Geological Survey said the initial earthquake was centred about 33km (20 miles) from Gaziantep, a major Turkish city and provincial capital.
Dozens of countries from around the world have promised help in search and rescue operations that are being hampered by cold and snow

Rescuers crowd flights from Istanbul to Turkey’s south

Adana, Turkey – Our flight this morning from Istanbul’s Sabiha Gokcen airport to the southern city of Adana was delayed due to heavy snowfall and air traffic, as rescuers continued to attempt to travel to Turkey’s hard-hit southeast.

The flight, along with Adana’s Sakirpasa airport, was filled with volunteers and journalists.

Though earlier reports on social media indicated that international rescue teams were being made to wait at the airport for several hours, they were not spotted around the terminal just after noon.

Erdogan declares state of emergency in 10 Turkish cities

Dozens of countries and organisations have offered to assist rescue efforts in Turkey and Syria after earthquakes and several aftershocks killed more than 5,000 people.

Qatar to send 10,000 mobile homes to Turkey and Syria

Qatar is sending 10,000 mobile homes to earthquake-affected areas in Turkey and Syria, as well as 120 rescue workers, a field hospital and humanitarian assistance, Al Jazeera’s Stefanie Dekker has reported.

“We are on an aircraft that is due to depart to Turkey. It is a large C-130, with crew that will be part of setting up those mobile homes,” she added from Al Udeid Air Base, Qatar.

“There is a medical team on board, rescue members are on board as well. They are trying to get things for survivors, there is onboard equipment as well. We will be flying to one of the airports in the southeast that is currently closed, in efforts to try to get as much of this aid as possible [to people].

This is heartbreaking, I don't just understand why people still live in disaster prone areas

And so the fourth river out of the garden of Eden aka the Euphrates recently dried up in turkey and naturally the spiritual progression after that is an earth shaking earthquake which happened yesterday in turkey and Syria and so now the way is prepared and opened for the kings and armies of the east to mount up and go on a crusade and rampage. Ladies and gents brace yourself because the ride is about to get very rocky and in the midst of this turmoil will the messiah be watered from the ground and will emerge from amongst us . Everybody get your life together the apocalypse is here. We are seeing the beginnings of it in Nigeria with the money scarcity and fuel scarcity as our paradigm unravels and unfolds very easily . Same thing is happening all over the world as we speak in different formats. Get ready. Hold on tight onto your seats because the messiah will be with us very soon, as in 2023 soon. Next natural progression after this is a volcanic eruption at Yellowstone volcano in America and that’s when you know Babylon is about to come down. If you have family In America get them back home to Nigeria ASAP if you want to see them ever again

Damn!

This is a shocking and an unfortunate disaster.
May all the souls of the dead rest in peace and may the injured get quick recovery.


Somehow i am disturbed that a religious country like Turkey is facing this unavoidable disaster.

Where is the God all of them are calling?

How can the God they serve in that country allow this evil to befall all of them in this manner?

And they declare public holidays to celebrate this God and yet same God couldn't prevent this.

Religion has never helped anyone!

Rest in peace to the departed souls. To think that the earth quake happened during the satanic Grammy awards ritual says alot.

The vengeance of the Lord is not far away from this world.

If only we had good leaders and citizens with sense, Nigeria should be the best country in the world.
I've experienced only two tornadoes in this country since I was born. One in 1998 and another in 2001. Although both had devastating effects, it's been calm since then. Only the yearly flooding now.
