Over 33,000 fatalities and numerous injuries have been reported following a devastating earthquake of magnitude 7.8 that hit Turkey and Syria on Monday.
Despite the grim reality, there have been moments of hope, such as the rescue of a 10-year-old girl who was found alive after being trapped under the rubble for 147 hours.
The search for survivors continues in Turkey, with workers tirelessly combing through the rubble.
However, the Israeli search-and-rescue group United Hatzalah has had to end their mission in Turkey due to security concerns.
In rebel-held regions of northwest Syria, rescue operations have ceased, as reported by the White Helmets volunteer organization. The ongoing civil war has complicated relief efforts in these areas.
