Hundreds of thousands of people are sleeping out in the open often in sub-zero conditions a week after the 7.8- and 7.6-magnitude events
A week after two 7.8- and 7.6-magnitude earthquakes levelled swathes of southern Turkey and northern Syria, hundreds of thousands of people are sleeping in the open in often sub-zero conditions.
In Turkey’s southern province of Hatay, one of the areas hardest hit by the quake and where some citizens said it took emergency teams days to arrivee, hundreds if not thousands of people are sleeping in their cars or in makeshift tents under market stalls with nowhere else to go.
