VAN, TURKEY: As many as 1,000 people were feared killed on Sunday when a powerful earthquake truck Turkey, collapsing dozens of buildings and pulling down phone and power lines in the southeast of the country, officials and witnesses said.

Emergency workers battled to rescue people trapped in buildings in the city of Van and surrounding districts on the banks of Lake Van, near Turkey’s border with Iran.

“We heard cries and groaning from underneath the debris, we are waiting for the rescue teams to arrive,” Halil Celik, a young man who lived in the centre of the city, told Reuters as he stood beside the ruins of building that had collapsed before his eyes.

“All of a sudden, a quake tore down the building in front of me. All the bystanders, we all ran to the building and rescued two injured people from the ruins.” For more visit: Times of India
