Description
Rescue workers saved an injured child from the rubble of collapsed buildings in Syria's Azaz after a powerful earthquake killed dozens and injured hundreds in northern and western Syria early on Monday (February 6)
More than 100 people were killed and over 200 injured in the Syrian regions of Aleppo, Hama and Latakia, in an earthquake that also shook southern Turkey, killing at least 76 there.
Syrian civil defense in rebel-held northwestern Idlib said the quake killed tens of people and injured hundreds in the areas where it operates.
Many buildings in the affected areas had already suffered damage in fighting during Syria's nearly 12-year-long civil war.
