Surveillance cameras monitored the great efforts made by a nurse at Inayet Topcuoglu Hospital in Gaziantep to remove children from the building at the moment of the devastating earthquake at dawn last Monday.
And the Turkish Minister of Health, Fakhruddin Kuja, posted on his Twitter account, a scene of the nurse trying hard to get the children out of the hospital.
Koca attached his tweet, saying: “The nurse risked her life to save the children in Inayet Topcuoglu Hospital in Gaziantep State at the moment of the earthquake, and there are many examples in our other hospitals.”

According to the scenes, the nurse rushed to the children’s department and entered the room first and took a child in her arms, moved to the next room, directed the people to the exit and then left the hospital with the child.
At the dawn of February 6, an earthquake of 7.7 degrees struck southern Turkey and northern Syria, followed by another hours later with a magnitude of 7.6 and hundreds of violent aftershocks, which left huge losses of lives and property in both countries.
