Winter, blocked roads, and assistance for survivors are among the challenges that rescuers are facing following the Turkey-Syria earthquake. | DFernandezINQ
“This general state of affairs, this climate, this weather, unfortunately, makes it very difficult for the work of rescue teams, search teams,” he added.“Secondly, because of the earthquake, the roads leading into the region are mostly destroyed,” Akyol said.
“Rescue teams and aid [are] very difficult to transport into the region. The Turkish military has mobilized over a hundred planes and at least as many helicopters now bypassing these roadblocks,” he noted.“There are millions of survivors, fortunately, who escaped unharmed or with minor injuries. So, the challenge is to provide for them with shelter, food, and then medicine as well,” he said.
Individuals who wish to donate may do so by reaching out to the social media outlets of the Turkish Embassy in Manila.
