Turkey & Syria quakes: Frantic search for survivors as death toll mounts

Rescuers are racing to rescue survivors from the rubble of the thousands of buildings brought down by the magnitude 7.8 earthquake and multiple aftershocks that struck eastern Turkey and neighbouring Syria. Countries from around the globe have dispatched teams to assist in the rescue efforts but a day after the earthquake struck, the number of emergency crews on the ground remained few, with their efforts impeded by frigid temperatures and close to 200 aftershocks, making the search through unstable structures perilous.
