The 7.8 magnitude earthquake rocked massive components of Turkey and neighboring Syria within the pre-dawn hours of Monday.
The quake was centered in Turkey’s southeastern province of Kahramanmaras, and was felt as distant as Cairo in Egypt. Hours later, a second 7.5 magnitude jolt, which was presumably an aftershock, struck greater than 100 kilometers (60 miles) away from the epicenter of the earthquake and brought about extra destruction.
Turkish authorities stated greater than 3,700 buildings have been destroyed. The demise toll is anticipated to rise.
