Türkiye’s quick response to quake disaster honored on UN agenda

Türkiye’s immediate response to the “disaster of the century” was featured on the agenda of the United Nations’ International Search and Rescue Advisory Group (INSARAG), with INSARAG’s secretariat and U.N. Disaster Assessment and Coordination (UNDAC) groups expressing their approval of the restoration efforts.

The analysis report despatched by INSARAG included mentioned: “The Government of Türkiye reacted quickly after the first earthquake and made an urgent declaration of Level 4, which transpires as a national disaster requiring international assistance. Long-term cooperation between the National Disaster and Emergency Management Authority (AFAD) and UNDAC/INSARAG made a collaborative response possible. AFAD coordinators in Ankara were on the phone with us an hour after the disaster. Our significant partnership with the AFAD allowed the rapid mobilization of international search and rescue assistance, which is critical in life-saving operations.”

Meanwhile, homes destroyed or severely broken are being rebuilt beneath the coordination of the Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change. Currently, new homes in seven villages of Gaziantep’s Nurdağı district are nearing completion. The new homes will measure 122 sq. meters (over 1,300 sq. ft) when it comes to dimension and have verandas in accordance with the native structure. Mosques and neighborhood infrastructure are additionally being established within the recovering neighborhoods.

A video shared by Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change Minister Murat Kurum touched hearts when a catastrophe survivor mentioned, “While we lost our senses, our state came to help us recover.”
