Rescuers in Turkiye pulled two women alive from the rubble of collapsed buildings after they had been trapped for 122 hours following the region’s deadliest quake in two decades, authorities said on Saturday.

Rescue workers continue to search in Hatay, Turkiye.

One of the rescued women, Menekse Tabak, 70, was swaddled in a blanket while rescuers carried her to a waiting ambulance in the province of Kahramanmaras, images from state news agency Anadolu showed. Sixty-seven people had been clawed from the rubble in the previous 24 hours, Turkish Vice President Fuat Oktay told reporters overnight, in efforts that drew in 31,000 rescuers across the affected region.

“Our main goal is to ensure that they return to a normal life by delivering permanent housing to them within one year, and that they heal their pain as soon as possible,” Oktay said.
