Hearts go out to the victims of the Turkey Earthquakes
The countries of Turkey and Syria have been devastated by a series of deadly earthquakes. The first one occurred around 04.30am this morning just 6 miles outside the city of Gazientep. The 7.8 magnitude earthquake was only 6 miles deep and caused huge destruction. A series of big aftershocks occurred and then at lunchtime a second 7.5 magnitude earthquake occurred. The picture above maps out the swarm of quakes that the poor people of the region have endured.
The events were also felt in Greece, Cyprus, Armenia, Egypt, Lebanon Israel and Jordan - right across the whole region.
The weather is terrible with heavy snow and cold temperatures, more than 2000 buildings have just collapsed and at the last report at least 2600 have been killed, and several thousand injured. Those numbers will surely only rise.
Please say a prayer for all those in the region of South Eastern Turkey and Syria and I hope that the world can help all those peoples who have been displaced or whose homes have been destroyed.
God Bless them alll
