Satellite imagery reveals before and after shots of Turkey earthquake damage, as death toll nears 10,000 in world’s deadliest tremor for a decade.
The 7.8 magnitude earthquake was the deadliest to hit Turkey since 1999, and officials fear the death toll will keep rising.
Rescuers have warned that “time is running out” for survivors still trapped under the rubble of buildings levelled by the massive earthquakes which hit Turkey and Syria.
The search for survivors across Turkey and Syria has been impeded by the sub-zero temperatures and close to 200 aftershocks, which made the search through unstable structures perilous.
