The death toll for this will grow exponentially. It is possibly even worse on the Syrian side of the border as refugees from the war there were crammed in high rise buildings that have been flattened and they have little resources for rescue operations.

I watched an ITV news report a few minutes ago that showed an entire city block of 12+ story buildings that collapsed in Turkey. Evacuation would be impossible in such circumstances and I imagine almost every occupant is in the rubble. The temperatures there will likely kill many who survived because cold air tends to settle in the same pockets where people might survive.

What a horror.
