Two men aged 26 and 34 were rescued from the rubble in Türkiye’s Hatay province Thursday night, 261 hours or 10 days after two major earthquakes struck southern provinces in the country.
Search and rescue teams found Mehmet Ali Sakiroglu, 26, and Mustafa Avci, 34, alive under the rubble in the Antakya district.
They were then taken to a hospital.
At least 38,044 people were killed by two strong earthquakes that jolted southern Türkiye on February 6, the country's disaster agency said early Friday. Several countries in the region, including Syria and Lebanon, also felt the strong tremors that struck Türkiye in the space of fewer than 10 hours.
