TURKEY QUAKE RESCUE: Turkish Man Pulled Alive From The Rubble
These images show a man who was pulled alive from the rubble in Turkey.
Rescue workers and soldiers can be seen having formed a human chain to help sift through what is left of a building.
The Natural Disaster Search and Rescue Battalion can be seen rescuing and taking care of the man, reportedly named Buse, in Hatay, Turkey.
Newsflash obtained a statement from the Turkish Ministry of Defence on the morning of Tuesday, 7th February, saying: "Our Natural Disaster Search and Rescue Battalion in Hatay rescued our young brother named Buse from under the rubble. We send him our best wishes."
Emergency workers are battling against the clock to save people from the rubble, with the international community sending in numerous experts to assist.
Turkey's Vice President Fuat Oktay said this morning, on Tuesday, 7th February, that the total death toll in Turkey and Syria now exceeds 5,000 people, with 3,549 people dead in Turkey and more than 1,600 people in Syria.
The total number of injured at the time of writing was 20,534 in Turkey alone.
The 7.8 magnitude earthquake that struck early on Monday morning in southern Turkey, devastating the south of the country and northern Syria, has been described by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan as one of the worst disasters in decades.
A second earthquake of 7.5 magnitude hit the same region again at noon Monday, causing even more damage.
More than 11,000 buildings have reportedly collapsed in Turkey, with damage and destruction spanning a border region of approximately 650 miles.
Volunteer rescue workers in northern Syria have said that they lack the most basic equipment to rescue those trapped under the rubble of their homes.
