God bless them all!! I wish I was a billionaire so I could help.. I gave blood and money but it seems so small..
We have enough to deal with in the world without Putins crap! We need to live as a united world.. Things are hard enough..
may allah be with them
I am very sad for the people who are suffering from the earthquake. But at the same time I can't help thinking of all the muslims in the world who rejoiced openly at the collapse of the world trade center. Am sure this earthquake must remind them of the rejoicing at that time.
Shame to western governments for banning aid to Syria!
And America still continue to rob the crude oil from Syria, not even a sign to lift sanctions.
And mother nature shows us what she can do in the blink of an eye. Prayers to all these people ❤
God said in the end says there will be earthquakes in various places
Do you remember the first news articles reporting showing the aerial of all those fallen buildings around the city, …"it is believed that an earthquake has just occurred in Turkey has killed up to 23 people, more victims are expected…"…
The report on the number of buildings among cities in both Syria and Turkey is more than 5000 buildings collapsed, many medium and high rise e.g. an 8 level building (however many are twice that height) is approx 32 apartments and average 3 people each apartment equals 92 persons. 100(92) multiplied by one thousand multiplied by five equals half a million.(rationally 250,000 to half a million toll)
And that shows as why there is no one to help, because the immense numbers of people required to do "anything" in the chain of assistance in an orderly managed way compared to other earthquake disasters around the world except Haiti earthquake 2010" simply do not exist whatsoever in materials or proper experienced human resources compared the scope size of destruction people missing to people survived ratio present"!
Sincere condolences to the people of Syria affected by the earthquake. 🙏
Prayers for the rescuers, the victims who died, the victims who survived, and especially for that father who holds the hand of his deceased daughter. This is all so tragic. 🙏😢
It's missing people in the United States why not find them. The United States went way to turkey for what, these people have the whole middle east to help them.
Every single survivor is a Blessing.
May the souls of those who left us find their way.
OMG.praying for the people .
Jesus is angry in Canada no jobs so many Philippines here so many homeless..no one is safe
It hurts to see so much devastation. God be with this people.
I would ilke to thank rescue teams Coming from all around the world, sisters and brothers coming from Azerbaijan, Greece, Israel, Georgia, Poland, Hungary, USA and many more. People from all around the world are sending what they have, whatever they can arrange. Thank you all for your kind supports. We have united as humans in this disaster which I hope will be the seeds that will unite us in humanity. All the thanks from our hearts🙏
Syrian immigrants are looting from Turks. They are stealing aid. They are attacking Israeli rescuers. Send them back to their own country
Sadly, according to experts in Turkey, we are expecting 50-200k lost people in this disaster…
Sad so sad 😞 🙏
