A massive earthquake has struck Turkey and Syria, killing thousands of people and injuring more than 13,000. The magnitude 7.8 quake brought down apartment buildings and added to the devastation for millions of people.
The harsh winter weather, including freezing temperatures and snowstorms, has made the situation even more difficult for those who are injured or homeless. In addition, poor internet connections and damaged roads have hindered efforts to assess the impact of the earthquake.
The second large quake that struck in the early afternoon has further worsened the situation. Health workers are working to tend to the injured while rescuers are searching for survivors amidst the rubble. The freezing temperatures and rain are expected to worsen the conditions for those who are trapped or homeless.
