More than 500 people were killed and thousands injured on Monday (February 6), after a major earthquake of magnitude 7.8 struck central Turkey and northwest Syria, collapsing buildings and triggering searches for survivors in the rubble.
Drone footage showed rescuers in the city of Adana searching through the rubble of a collapsed building.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake struck at a depth of 17.9 km.
The tremor lasted about a minute and shattered windows, according to a Reuters witness in Diyarbakir, 350 km (218 miles) to the east, where a security official said at least 17 buildings collapsed.
It was Turkey's most severe quake since 1999, when one of similar magnitude devastated Izmit and the heavily populated eastern Marmara Sea region near Istanbul, killing more than 17,000.
The quake, which hit in the early darkness of a winter morning, was also felt in Cyprus and Lebanon.
