It is estimated that 46,000 people have died in Turkey and Syria so far. Turkey’s disaster relief forces said rescue operations had ended in all but two provinces. Rescue operations are ongoing only in Kahrenmaras and Hatay provinces.
The death toll in Turkey alone is 40,642. More than 5,800 people died in Syria. As the second phase of rescue efforts, the focus will be on rehabilitation. Focusing only on rescue has been criticized as creating a crisis for rehabilitation. The rescue operation was stopped on the basis of allegations that the two countries were not using the aid provided by the countries of the world.
