Six days after the devastating earthquakes in Turkey and Syria rescue teams and dogs have given way to the heavy machinery because there is no hope of finding people alive. In addition, it is increasingly necessary to remove debris to avoid possible epidemics.
International aid, however, has been essential in managing the catastrophe: more than 100 countries have sent search teams. The Military Emergency Unit (UME) is on the ground. After 28 hours of absolute dedication the 55 Spanish rescuers have managed to get three people alive, as you can see in the video above.
The Spanish Armada he has also worked for 72 hours in different areas of Turkey. And the Spanish Agency for International Cooperation has set up a field hospital in just 48 hours to accommodate 200 people. They will start to arrive on Monday the first patients.
The next phase of this catastrophe is heartbreaking: tens of thousands of people have been left without a home, without a family, without money, and they depend exclusively on the support from the Turkish government and humanitarian aid.
