A series of earthquakes along the Turkey-Syria border have collapsed many buildings in the border towns. This earthquake has claimed tens of thousands of lives. As of today, the death toll has exceeded 11,000. Dead bodies can be seen digging out the ruins. Hence, the death toll is feared to rise further. Videos and photos taken during the rescue operations are going viral.
In this situation, a video of a girl trapped in the rubble of an earthquake in northern Syria and fought to save her brother for 17 hours is going viral. While they are both at home, they are caught in an earthquake. In this, the 7-year-old girl Maryam is trapped in the rubble. The girl’s brother is lying next to him. Both are unable to move. However, the girl is seen wrapping her head with her hand to prevent anything including dust from falling on her brother. The rescue team rescued two people who were trapped under the cement slabs and admitted them for treatment.
Similarly, in Syria’s Abrin city, a newborn baby was rescued alive with its mother dead and the umbilical cord not cut inside a hospital destroyed by the earthquake. The video shared by the rescue team has shocked the viewers.
