The long road to recovery in Turkey and Syria

WAMU 88.5

Published February 13, 2023 at 8:48 AM CST

People sit around a fire and walk past collapsed buildings on February 13, 2023 in Hatay, Turkey.

More than a week after twin earthquakes and several aftershocks in Turkey and Syria, hopes are starting to dim in the search for survivors.

The death toll has reached at least 35,000.

Now work is turning towards the long road of recovery and rebuilding.
