Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Saturday pledged to rebuild the nation’s southern area that was struck by highly effective earthquakes on Feb. 6, claiming the lives of greater than 50,000 individuals.
“Our aim is to restore our cities in the earthquake zone by handing over 319,000 residences and village houses to owners within a year,” Erdogan stated at a ground-breaking ceremony in quake-hit Elazig province.
Erdogan stated Türkiye will erase the traces of the destruction attributable to the catastrophe, and put together “more strongly” for doable disasters sooner or later.
Magnitude 7.7 and seven.6 quakes struck 11 Turkish provinces-Adana, Adiyaman, Diyarbakir, Elazig, Hatay, Gaziantep, Kahramanmaras, Kilis, Malatya, Osmaniye, and Sanliurfa.
More than 13.5 million individuals in Türkiye have been affected by the quakes, in addition to many others in northern Syria.
