A Victoria man says a series of devastating earthquakes in Turkiye and Syria have left him feeling nearly paralyzed, as the death toll from the quakes rises above 6,200 people.
In a span of 10 hours, Turkiye saw more than 30 earthquakes, according to Victoria man Kemal Ebci, most of them around magnitude-6.0
However, roads across the country have been severely damaged, and the only way to get in and out of his hometown is by air."I was so worried, even before asking them I just Googled what's happening in Turkiye and in my hometown," he said. Victoria man Kemal Ebci, whose friends and family were caught in the earthquakes in Turkiye, is shown. Ebci notes that many hospitals were damaged in the earthquake, as were some airports and roads, making it difficult for emergency supplies and personnel to travel across the country.Between a lack of emergency services, a lack of shelter, limited food and water, and chilly weather, Ebci says many people in Turkiye are"just trying to survive.
Individuals should also have preperations for if a natural disaster strikes, like having food and water available, Ebci recommends.
