Thousands who lost their homes in a
catastrophic earthquake huddled around campfires and clamored for food and water in the bitter cold, three days after the
temblor and series of aftershocks hit Turkey and Syria, killing more than 17,000.
Rescuers continued their race to pull more people alive from the rubble, with the window closing to find trapped survivors. While stories of miraculous rescues briefly buoyed spirits, the grim reality of the
hardship facing tens of thousands who survived the disaster cast a pall. In the Turkish city of Antakya, dozens of people scrambled for aid in front of a truck
distributing children’s coats and other supplies.
