Entire city blocks were flattened by the earthquake. Metal rods were strewn across the streets and vehicles overturned. More than a thousand high-rise buildings were destroyed.

At least 120 aftershocks have occurred following a powerful earthquake in southern Turkey. Three of the aftershocks measured 6.0 or more, which struck 95 kilometers (59 miles) north of the epicenter of the main morning quake. The aftershocks extend more than 300 kilometers (about 186 miles) along the fault zone.

The port of Iskenderun in southern Turkey was damaged. Parts of the harbor quay have collapsed. Elsewhere, cracks have formed on the runways of some airports in the seismic zone.

Many countries have already started providing humanitarian aid. Rescuers are still working to free people trapped under the rubble.
