“Silence please!” rescuers plead with anguished Turkish families huddled around a flattened building their loved ones lived in until a massive quake killed thousands and upturned millions of lives.
DIYARBAKIR, Türkiye –
It is nothing but dust and ruins now. Almost inexplicably, several buildings stand tall beside it with little to no damage at all.Allegations of flagrant building code violations are rampant across Turkey. “The building collapsed. I saw my sister buried under rubble up to her waist, bleeding. She was shouting ‘mum, mum’. My mum, who could barely walk, was trapped inside.”Wrapped in blankets, huddling around fires to warm themselves from the freezing rain, or simply reciting the Koran, the survivors have few thoughts other than about those they left behind.
