Turkey’s vice president said the total number of deaths in Turkey had risen to 3419
![]() 966 Tuesday, 07 February, 2023, 13:48 A frantic race was underway Tuesday to find more survivors and help the injured as the death toll from the devastating earthquake that struck Turkey and Syria the previous day passed 5,000. The toll is likely to climb further as freezing weather and multiple aftershocks are hurting the rescue efforts — despite international assistance. Turkey’s Vice President Fuat Oktay said the total number of deaths in Turkey had risen to 3,419, with another 20,534 people injured. That brought the number of people killed to 5, 102, with another 1,602 people confirmed dead on the Syrian side of the border. |
