The risk of collapse of buildings damaged by the earthquake in Turkey still exists, as circulating photographs show that many buildings are leaning on each other, while others are leaning on cars.
In connection with the continuation of tremors in areas affected by the devastating earthquake in the south of the country, the evacuation of residents and the assessment of the condition of buildings and their readiness for occupancy continues.
Many buildings in the Kerekhan district of Hatay were reduced to rubble, and some buildings were badly damaged due to the fact that they leaned on each other.
While the townspeople spend the night in tents set up at different points in their districts, it is reported that in the coming days, heavily damaged buildings will be demolished and their fragments removed.
At dawn on February 6, a 7.7 magnitude earthquake hit southern Turkey and northern Syria, followed several hours later by a 7.6 magnitude earthquake with hundreds of violent tremors that caused massive loss of life and property in both countries .
