https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQLkCFjYrdk [quote author= ]The death toll from the Turkey-Syria earthquakes has passed 16,000. At least 12,873 people have died in Turkey, according to officials, while at least 3,162 have been killed in Syria. Hopes of finding survivors are quickly fading and residents of southeastern Turkey and northwestern Syria are criticising what they call slow search and rescue efforts. Yet amid the freezing cold, rescue workers are still pulling people out alive from the rubble, as search operations continue for a fourth day. Hope turns to despair in Turkey, Syria 72 hours after earthquakes While rescuers continue to work frantically to save survivors from the rubble of collapsed buildings, the chances of finding many more people alive are fading rapidly more than 72 hours after the devastating earthquakes. Tensions running high as rescuers race against time Al Jazeera’s correspondent Resul Serdar is in Kahramanmaras, one of the areas worst hit by the earthquakes, where he gave his latest update. “Just an hour ago, two bodies have been pulled out from the rubble,” he said standing in front of a collapsed building. “The rescue team have held blankets to cover those bodies so that the families do not see those disturbing images,” Serdar said. “People are quite sad here. The tensions are high. The emotions are high. In the past 24 hours, no one has come out of this rubble alive,” he added[/quote]https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.aljazeera.com/amp/news/liveblog/2023/2/9/turkey-syria-quake-updates

PlayMaker14:This is deep. Sometimes if ur feeling depressed abt ur life nd u feel like giving up, simple walk to any hospital close to u and see people who re in severe pains and struggling for survival. No matter who u b, hospital go humble u. We always have to tank God for good health and the gift of life. |
