Earthquake rescues continue
Description
As day breaks in eastern Turkey on Monday (October 24), rescue efforts continue after a massive 7.2 magnitude earthquake the day before.
Using machines and their bare hands, rescuers and bystanders work to remove debris from flattened buildings, one brick at a time.
Survivors are still being pulled from the rubble... rescuers say this boy is alive, also.
But not everyone is so lucky.
(SOUNDBITE) (Turkish) QUAKE VICTIM SAYING:
"We were trapped under debris with my brother. I was pulled out alive but he is still trapped there."
(SOUNDBITE) (Turkish) QUAKE VICTIM SAYING:
"The situation is really bad. Many of our friends and relatives are still trapped under rubble. We haven't heard from any of them."
Survivors are receiving food and supplies from aid teams, and huddle around fires after spending a cold night out in the streets.
Officials say the death told is more than 200 people, and with hundreds still unaccounted for, that number is expected to rise.
