Hundreds dead after earthquake strikes Turkey and Syria 

It's just so sad... That region (especially Syria) already suffered a lot for the last 10 years I can't help but pray for the safety of survivors And peace for those who didn't make it alive

I can’t stop crying, it hurts so much. All nations, help Turkey and Syria. Each second counts

7.8M and another 7.5M near by....DAMN!!!!! they need nation wide help!!! prayers to all the trapped n suffering!!

I was woken up with the bed and doors shaking. I live in the centre of Syria and despite not being in the immediate vicinity, it was really scary! And it comes at the worst possible time, it is bitter cold and we have 30 minutes of electricity every 6 hours... truly horrific situation!

I was living in Istanbul, Turkey during the 1999 earthquake and survived because I resided in a well built building constructed of stone. There was a summer heatwave at the time, adding to the agony of both the trapped and the survivors. The most important concern for responders is time. Responders need to go now. Going now, no matter how imperfect your preparation, is better than going tomorrow fully prepared. How do I know? I was there in Istanbul in the midst of the tragedy. There was much talk about responders on the way and how skilled they were. Yes, they came, and they certainly helped save lives. I cannot say it was too little too late. But for many, it was just too late. If your group or organization is going to help you need to go now. Winter cold and dehydration are potential life takers. Time is not in their side.

May the souls of those who have passed RIP and may those who have survived find peace and the help thry need to recover.

So awful. What a traumatized nation.

Condolences to the people of Turkey 🇹🇷 from Poland 🇵🇱

Heavenly Father, in the name of your son Jesus Christ, we lift up all those who were affected by the mega earthquake that hit Turkey. Lord Jesus be with them as they go out to rescue and find people. I pray for miracles for your glory Lord Jesus. I lift up all those who were hurt, and those who lost their homes and also the family & friends of those who died as a result of this earthquake. Comfort them in this desperate time. In Jesus Christ's name I pray, Amen.

This is horrible. My condolences to the Turkish and Syrian.

The body count is over 2,000 people and they haven’t even gotten through a quarter of the rubble. Horrific. RIP.

Prayers to Turkey and Syria, awful earthquake!

Here in NZ they were trying to get survivors out of the rubble in CHCH (in 2010) and a fire started under the rubble and the people were burning while trapped :c I hope those who are trapped can be rescued safely without suffering any further 🙏🏻

Кардашларим мусибатларингизга сабр тилайман дуомдасиз утганларни охрати обод булсин илохим амийин жарохатланганларга Оллохим шифосини берсин илохим амийин бутун дунё бандалари сизларга хамдард бардам булинглар

Співчуття усім країнам, які постраждали від цього жахіття 😭🇺🇦🙏 Україна думками з вами !

God have mercy on us. Syria 🇸🇾

My country Turkey 🇹🇷🇹🇷🥺 god bless 🙏🏻

This hurts seeing helpless people prayers

Endless thanks to all the good people who shared our pain and prayed for us.

May God heal those who are injured and welcome in his kingdom those who died.

Turkey, you are in our prayers!

May God have mercy

Rest in Peace 🙏🙏🙏 and God Bless ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏

Now this is what we should be sending money and help to

🙏 I will pray for them, hopefully survivors are okay and healthy 🙏

The affected areas in Turkish territory mainly include 10 provinces (out of the total 81 that make up Turkey). About 12.5 million people are directly affected by the disaster. Buildings either collapsed like accordions or crumbled. A hallucinating degree of destructive force generated by the sheer nature of the planet. The situation is unimaginably terrifying over a very large area: about 200 Mila km². And as if that were not enough Two separate earthquakes, only 6 hours apart and born in a depth of ONLY 7 km and with hallucinating magnitude power from even one of 7.8 and the 'other of 7.77 have triggered more than 150 aftershocks of which 3 within magnitude between 6.4 and 6.7. It is snowing in some areas and the snow is spreading everywhere. Within a couple of days the temperature will drop to -10°C. ! From Hatay to Diyarbakir the distance is 600 km. Along this range the most affected cities are 10. The total population of these cities is over 12.5 M! How many thousands of rescuers do you think would be needed to save hundreds of thousands of lives (children and mothers) in a few hours? Roads, highways, etc. are destroyed, some of the airstrips are now smashed, there are collapsed viaducts on secondary roads... And all these disruptions are spread over an area of approx. 200M sq. km. where a polation of over 12.5 M inhabitants live. This is the stark summary of what is coming in Turkey.

Praying for all who loss loved ones and were affected by this tragedy God help them all in Jesus Mighty Name..

The worst part is this massive earthquake happened in snowfall winter season of Turkiye .

Omg 1,000+ is scary especially if it happened early morning 😢

I live in Turkey, although I live in a place far from the earthquake, my father's workplace shook like crazy.

Sending our prayer from Iran

many countries have helped Turkey I hope these countries will help Syria too, regardless of regime and politics, humanity first. They do not have enough rescue teams and their situation is very bad🇸🇾🇹🇷😔
