The earthquake in Turkey and Syria/ One of the most tragic in the last 2 decades

The 7.8-magnitude earthquake that hit the border of Turkey and Syria in the early hours of Monday morning has been described as one of the most severe in the last 2 decades.

The number of victims in Turkey and Syria has exceeded 20,000, making Monday's tragic event ranked among the 10 most severe earthquakes of the last 20 years, according to data published by CNN.

The high number of victims, CNN explains, is also related to the time when the earthquake occurred, when most people were in their homes.

Bad weather conditions do not seem to be in favor of the situation. Low temperatures and snow have invaded the region, which is making the work of rescue teams difficult./ CNA.al
