The Anatolian News Agency published, on its Twitter account, a video clip compiled from several surveillance cameras installed in different places in the Turkish state of Malatya, where it showed the first moments. For the devastating earthquake that struck Turkish territory at dawn on February 6 past.

The video shows the moments of strong earthquakes and the panic that affected people in the streets and roads.

These are truly breathtaking moments and moments of terror that struck southern Turkey as a result of the violent earthquake, which measured 7.8 degrees on the Richter scale, causing tens of thousands of homes to collapse and burying more than 39 thousand people under the rubble, including entire families. It was also infected and hundreds of thousands of victims were left homeless.

Rescue teams are still working in Turkey today, Wednesday, in an attempt to find survivors, despite the fading hopes. Perhaps a miracle will happen and one of them will remain clinging to life, resist and survive the “disaster of the century”, as described by the Turkish president. Indeed, a number of neighborhoods were recovered after 228 hours of excavation under the rubble.
