Survivors were still being dug out of the rubble in earthquake-hit Türkiye, but for many grieving families their only hope is that the remains of their loved ones will be found so that they can mourn at their grave site.

“Would you pray to find a dead body? We do … to deliver the body to the family,” said bulldozer operator Akin Bozkurt as his machine clawed at the rubble of a destroyed building in the town of Kahramanmaras.

Three people, including a child, were rescued alive. The mother and father survived, but the child died later of dehydration, the rescue team said. An older sister and a twin did not make it. With sanitation infrastructure damaged, health officials are concerned over the possible spread of infection. In Syria, which has reported more than 5 800 deaths, the World Food Programme said authorities in the northwest of the country were blocking access to the area.
