The victims say

 “ that the cries of many people buried

     in the mud kept coming, but due to the lack of necessary

     equipment,they could not be pulled out.Sources say that

the authorities have so far reached only two to  three

         percent of the destroyed buildings.A woman still lies near

         a snow-covered destroyed building in the city of Malatya,

         with her relatives' children buried 

under its rubble.”

A woman named Sabiha Alinek said,

"Where is the state?" Where have these people been 

for two days? We are begging them .  We cannot take 

them out, let's take them out together.Dozens of

bodies are lined up outside a hospital in the Antioch

region, some covered with blankets and others covered

with bags.A 64-year-old woman, Melek, who was pulled

out of the wreckage, said, "I didn't see any rescue team."

We have survived the earthquake, but we will die of hunger

and cold.Some of the same scenes are being seen in southern

Syria as it was also hit by a strong

earthquake on Monday.



Collapse Building 


Syria's UN envoy has

admitted that the Damascus region is facing a "lack of essential

supplies for the government".He blamed this situation

on the sanctions imposed by the western countries.

Similarly, Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan has

acknowledged that the government's initial response

to the crisis was inadequate, but stressed that it is

being improved."Let's get better tomorrow and the

time after that. We have some fuel issues but we will

overcome them," he said.

 

The death toll could reach 20,000

Although relief operations are ongoing

in Turkey and Syria, there are fears of a further increase

in the number of casualties. The World Health Organization

has warned that the death toll may exceed 20,000.In the

same region in 1999, at least 17 thousand people were

killed as a result of a similar earthquake.Turkish authorities

say that more than 13.5 million people have been affected

by the earthquake and the most affected area is spread over

450 kilometers from Edina to Diyarbakir.Similarly, most of

the casualties in Syria took place in the Hama region, which

is 250 kilometers away from the epicenter.



Aid Plan from China


Surprised by the minimum support

given by China to Turkey/Syria in these tough times.

Aid of only $5.9mn 🇹🇷 & $4.4mn 🇸🇾. On the contrast

India has sent six C-17s so far part of "

Operation Dost".
