Several survivors are still being pulled from the rubble nearly a week after the initial earthquakes. The U.N. Emergency Relief Coordinator acknowledged the world had “failed” the people of Syria, which is in increasingly dire straits. NBC News’ Gabe Gutierrez is in Southern Turkey, sharing some of the miraculous rescues.

#Syria #Turkey #Earthquake
As A Turk I Will Say To Israel Thanks For You Support 🇮🇱❤🇹🇷
My city Antep is destroyed by earthquake
but Israeli equipment saved many children
Love You Israel From Turkiye
@Jessica Ryan no. Bad clip. Unwanted ads!
FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸‼️
Los Angeles Sheriff Department search and rescue teams are actually in Turkey who volunteered to help out with the Turks. The entire world actually feels your pain and sufferings. The devastating quake itself in Turkey and Syria has affected the world. ✝️🙏🇹🇷💔🤕😢😞🇹🇷💔
They’re helping a different country while demolishing the homes of thousands of Palestinians, so I find it hypocritical. I’m sorry for what Turkey and Syria are going thru. Duas and prayers are with everyone affected 🇵🇰🇺🇸🇵🇸💕
@R.J. The Palestinians are doing that to themselves.
What is erdowan and Assad doing for the people.
if you dont understand, syrial not just assad, they have rebel group which they are fight in war, and u,s sanction make thing harder
God starts an earthquack and he says god is gr8, people really need to wake up lol
@Karen Messinger the only thing that has been proven reading the Bible is only one thing that someone wrote it, nothing stated in the Bible has been proven in anyway shape or form period
@Victor Sierra you can’t as there’s on no God, it’s a horrible natural disaster nothing more
@Karen Messinger Oh I believe the bible, but more on the spectrum of history VS biblical.
@Evan Brad it’s not even history. It comes from mythology. I can’t take a book seriously that has a talking snake and 900 year old men in it
@⚛ No More Fairytales lol, I legit never heard about a talkin snake or a 900 yr old man. But the part about Jews being in Israel for 3,500 years (or something like that) checks out as its proven by the ancient artifacts (ex Scrolls) found in the Holyland.
Very sad all this.
I haven’t seen destruction like this since the last blm riot
!
@Ema Arredondo across the entire USA bud
i think youre reaching lmao. All they did was break glass, trash stores, and steal things.
@Slayer of Trolls Most curious. There are live cams of cities, beaches, parks, all across the USA. There are international news agencies, tourists, exchange students, posts in social networks. None shows a country flattened by riots, or mass burials. There are enemies of the USA that would be happy to show their citizens how the country self-destructed, no news on that side either.
The clashes and damages reported, were not comparable to, let’s say, Chile’s 2019 social unrest (public offices, supermarkets, subway stations burning, the government cornered, a new constitution in the works) or the 1921 Tulsa Massacre.
So, again, where, exactly? Where thousands of buildings were destroyed down to the basement, people was massacred by the hundreds and thousands, where was international help required? How the government reacted to that, exactly?
You should write a Wikipedia article on the subject, because what’s there shows that more of the 90% of the protests were peaceful.
@angyeet not that that’s not plenty but Let’s never forget blm rioted during the covid pandemic when we were supposed to be social distancing and sheltering in place. 20,000 people died every day. They cost us billions in extra police hours, clean up, damages, extra strain on our medical system etc in a time when families couldn’t afford groceries and the lasting effects of our overwhelmed medical system will be felt for years.
@Ema Arredondo see below oh racist one
Continued Prayers For More Survivor’s 🙏🙏
💐💋💋💋💋💋😢😳
Good to see all global participants involved in their own way to help, some may be friends and other’s may be enemies, in the end they are all you and I living in different places on this earth 🤝🌎🌍🌏🤝
🙏🙏🙏
WFT are those silly emojis suppose to do, typically of a religious person to be to lazy to write actual words, pathetic
Thank God they are fine …
🙏 🙏 💔 💔
A few days ago, when I predicted 50,000 dead, I was ridiculed for my estimate. I’ve lived through thousands of earthquakes in my life. Most never felt. But here, at 4 am when people are sleeping and thousands of structures collapsed, I fear even my estimate of 50K perished could be short.
I’m not sure buildings of any engineering could have withstood the type of slip earthquake like this. This wasn’t a “shake” back and forth from a wave of energy, this was the earth simply slipping one massive direction. Like having a rug pulled out from under you.
This type of earthquake is the worst there is. These arrest seem political.
Your count is reasonable and could go higher
Not an expert, but considering the 600 sq miles area and the way those buildings fold down like a deck of cards, I suspect the true number would be close to 100k 🤔
Id wouldn’t surprise me if they hit 50K.
You have to remember they will eventually have to count the missing I feel like it could be 1 million.
And yes Japan had a 9.2 buildings stood not many collapsed it was the tsunami that hurt them. Maybe the world should take notes from Japan cause they are strict on building codes.
I hope they continue to search with the belief that there are many more that may have survived. Don’t give up just yet. This is devastating hearing about the amount of people who have lost their lives. My prayers are with them.
Finally It Is Here The Clip You All Wanted:-
https://youtu.be/ZcGK39xhXsc
Lovely result.
My heart goes out for all the innocent victims the blood is on the government hands they should forced local counsil to subsidize the earthquake proof he was there in 1999 wardogan I’m lucky my family survived 2 earthquake and we had earthquake proof house there the humans in turkey are under dictator ship the banks aren’t independent all political opponents are jailed 100k people in jail sad how hate ful he is instead of helping kurds turkey has alot of potential and young people for the sake of humanity dont let him be president he even jailed ikram imamoglu who in Mt eyes in president worthy erdogan should learn to adapt to euro standards he’s crazy like putin and old im not religious but I have my hope and faith for all my turkish people wished more helped to restore Syria and turkey
Israel was quick to offer Syria help but Syria said no. I would think that rescuing your people would be more important than your arguments with them.
They say no cos of rebel groups Syria is in war with the kurds the Kurdish rebels are with 3 million atleast
“Syria” didn’t say anything. Countries don’t speak. Bashar al Assad said no, because he doesn’t care about the people of his country.
@emlmm88 Israel offered. They were told no.
@Karen Messinger _By_ Bashar al Assad, who bombed his own people and probably doesn’t care if they die from the earthquake. Frankly, seeing as the worst areas hit were in opposition to his regime, he’s probably happy this happened to them.
I don’t think anyone who has family members trapped in rubble would turn down help, so its an important distinction to make there.
Why my people suffer cos of corrupt leadership and one man army leader he visit places he didn’t protect ya allah 😭😢
The kurds defeat isis
We praying for you guys . God is going to locate everyone.?
We?
One city hard zero death cos of safe construction and all legal construction his councios is clean
💔🙏🙏💔🙏💔
Always search for people a human who doesn’t move and drink his urine can survive 3 months on vet reserves
Nahh. They’re probably all dead at this point. Quit coping
Makes me mad the government doesn’t care what it’s people have to say next year our turkiye is 100 years stop islam racist we need seculqr communism humanist
84$ billion usd damage yet with donate only with 20 million 🙁 I get mad at government ill vote for oppisition chp for seculair thought
You think Turkey is even worth $84 billion? Snap back to reality
Erdogan have palace with 1150 rooms help them u have army stuff to find people why not do?
Erdogan have palace with 1150 rooms help them u have army stuff to find people why not do? Yet locals like me house 300 people rent free for 6 months with a finance cheque(My father ) also help Syria come on
I hope my family from other side of turkey is okay 😓 I’ll have to wait until vacation time cos ticket are 1000€each and new house 😭
It’s awful that the United States hasn’t lifted the sanctions on Syria during this tragedy. Shows how heartless the Biden administration is.
I loved Trump cos he didn’t start wars Biden on the other hand is the worst like oboama always war hungry and want to sell weapons steal oil and gold with self made rebel groups who are trained in usa
Why didnt the government do its job and inspect the new buildings??? They are fully aware of the eathquakes and should have a mandatory inspection thru the whole build proccess….
They rather money laundry and have quick profit to get more billions the government is ruled by one person who is in full power also blame to those who made unsafe house my house on earthquake safe its more exspensive but u can rest without problems
Jesus is greatness
He is the prophet of god
He is the only God His name is Jesus
@Warrior 🙄👎
If I didn’t have a child I’d die rather for My people to suffer like this second largest natural chaos
Nice! Can we hit 50K?? Maybe even 100K?
10 year old girl. 😪
The Syria leader must open to let the teams of the rescues to help the earthquakes victims . The Syria leader must help his people first .
So that you (West) can bring another war to Syria for free oil, already India sent the rescue to Syria

AKBAR CANNOT HELP YOU
These are the countries killed chopped off neck of Christian missionaries, because they taught them morals and gospels.
But Lord turn these people to you
Maybe they didn’t like cults butting into their traditions
@⚛ No More Fairytales judgement upon every country as natural disasters that noone can control. That’s how people understand the strength of the Lord….. More sin, more judgement…..
@ESTHER there are tornadoes and bad weather on Jupiter so who is he punishing there
👋😂
@🌄 Sugar Xyler🪶 the Cherokee let your belief with you like that….. When its come upon you, you will cry out, lord help me from under the rubble
And the Christians are inocent are they? Please tell us how many inocent people have been killed in the name of God? I’ll get you started The Spanish Inquisition, the Christians that invade the whole continent of South America, the Christians that invade most of the islands in the Pacific, the Christians that committed genocide from 1939 to 1945 to eliminate the Jews do I need to go on you hypocrite
SAVE THE HAMSTERS !
i grieved for all the victims (dead & alive) for the people of Turkey & Syria.. & while i do believed there’s ‘questionable’ building standards which make this catastrophic event goes beyond proportions, this is also an act of natures..an act of God..where we, the living, have a lot to learned from 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
God is good .. praying for more victims to be found , give strength to rescuers , faith to families.
He’s good on what planet,
definitely not Earth ⚛
God is good you say, well by your logic there’s a God so by deduction God is responsible for the horrible event. OR there’s no God and this is a natural disaster which one do you choose 1 or 2?
@Frank M God or us responsible?
@coolkidzontheBlock 7 seriously that’s about the silliest question I have heard in a while so I will make the anwser very clear, it’s NOT GOD because there’s no God secondly it’s not us as you put it’s mother nature, a earthquake happens when one or more tictonic plates move underground, now if you can prove my options differently I’m open to understanding your proof
Gift of the Givers Rescue Team saved behind the scenes.ons hoor en sien maar Min van hulle .
The morning of earthquakes, I told people, “you must be your own rescuers 🥺 We cannot get to you” and that is the heartbreak of it. Survivors, you are not forgotten, but it takes so much time to get to you. We care!! And we came! And we’re still sending more help. You are all heroes! God bless you all!! 💛💜💖
Mother Earth is cleaning house. She’s telling us, there are far too many guests!
Exactly, shaking off its fleas
The earthquake was shallow. The blame always falls on architectural defects and code violations when it’s actually due to the natural disaster. Not fair.
No, the world didn’t abandon Siria; the sanctions made it impossible.
Dear god , please help these poor ppl, crews not able to save certain areas , make them keep searching…please.
Workers who built it are not to blame but the politicians that had allowed that !
In Turkey big business for fast building home, no quality, no seaf. Now Turkey need to clean land, start build new strong homes, asking for help not a solution. Waithing for help not a solution.
Turkey must open Lachin road to Artsakh, must order Aliyev to open the blockade, there are over 120 thousand people in Artsakh that are suffering because of the blockade, humanity comes first!
33k 😳😳😳 omg
🙏🙏
Another religious imbicile leaving emojis because of laziness to write anything down wow what a great Christian
Dear God help 🙏🙏🙏
What is God going to do but more importantly how
Lol
Everytime there’s a terrible and horrible tragedy there’s actually going to be looting and other things that are going to happen. There may be curfew and maybe martial law as well. The death toll will actually be over 33,000 in few days and will actually climb even higher. This is actually a terrible and heartbreaking to see what happened in Turkey and Syria.
Good, they owe reparations, about time they started to pay
I hope more and more people will survive !!! May the universe help and support ❤❤❤❤
Whatever the survivors want they actually received it?
The entire world is actually not against Syria itself but they are turned back from Syrian group or maybe government leaders
God bless these wonderful people ❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
What are we going to do for the people in Syria???
A lot of people are suffering, its hard to watch people suffering so much.
Its a tragedy of such a large scale, its hard to fathom.
ARREST ALL HAARP AND CREN OFFICIALS & FINANCIERS
The first thing they gonna rebuild are the mosques! I say, let God help you then🤣
Ants
I’ve prayed everyday for these people but I don’t understand why the news Keeps asking everyone to send money.. even if ten million people sent 5 dollars each (50,000,000) what exactly is that supposed to accomplish???
Now on top of that, they’re issuing arrest warrants for hard working carpenters because they need someone to blame.. it’s called a NATURAL DISASTER.. unless you’re gonna lock up Mother Nature leave ppl alone! There’s already enough grief going around
its supposed to help rebuild the cities and get supplies like food and medical supplies for the wounded
What they are blaming the construction workers shame on Turkey. Constructions workers are told what to buy and what to do they have no say. They need to be arresting the corp heads who have the big bucks and make the big calls not the little guys smh.
@angyeet Do you honestly think that’s what they’re gonna spend the money on?? They use tragedies like this to line their pockets.. BLM raised 80 million and didn’t do one thing for the black community.. not tryna sound like a conspiracy theorist but this stuff is right in our face..
Prayers and thoughts to these families effected. So upsetting and sad.
GOD IS GOOD PRAISE GOD 🙌 GLORY TO GOD
God is so great…..
Wow
why isnt the US there? they always love to play hero. I remember they helped out japan find bodies back when the tsunami hit
Just TERRIBLE 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😇
Please help Syria 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
That’s a lot wow
*I’m so opportuned irrespective of the economic crisis and financial conditions I am still able to earn $33,500 returns from my initial $6,500 every 10days*
Buildings need steel colum
cant believe america did that
JUDGEMENTS ARE CONING FOR LEADERS WHO LEFT SYRIANS IN THE RUBBLE TO DIE
So funny hahaha
Must be very bad for the Fake Vote biden admin – now they are shooting down UFO’s and arresting fake news reporters! Is this the strategy from Bejing CCP hq that you are now to follow?
Hey, Biden and the left, why don’t you halt the invasion of all the healthy Latinos coming in from Mexico and instead help and rescue and bring home the victims of the earthquake from Syria???? Huh, Biden? Roll up your sleeves and help these poor people who are real victims and get them humane living conditions in America
They are only giving help to Turkey this is wrong I know Turkey is worse but Syria deserves help too.
A Short story in honor of a survivor. I call it (Ephesus)
I fell forever, laid and splaid out on a slab of death. Dismembered and broken. Breathless until I heard a voice. “Sebastian, I will tell you of my life and legacy”, a man disemboweled whose entrails lay on my slab spoke. His head was stuck between two slabs and his body was mangled and broken. I could smell the scent of his entrails but I immediately listened. He spoke of his father and mother, of his sins and regrets. He gesticulated while drowning in his own blood. He told me he loves the color yellow. I stayed silent while he passed and I wept. I wept. I lay for days dismembered and in silence remembering this stranger. May he rest in peace.
33000 people died . God is great..?
The ones that placed sanctions on Syria are the ones that failed them.
