The most powerful earthquake in nearly a century struck Turkey and Syria early Monday, killing over 1,200 people in their sleep, levelling buildings and causing tremors felt as far away as Iraq. At least 326 people died in government-controlled parts of Syria while 912 people died in Turkey.
Another 7.5-magnitude earthquake hit southeast Turkey this evening, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS). Details of casualties in the second earthquake are yet to come in. The second shallow quake hit at 1:24 pm local time, 4 km south-southeast of the town of Ekinozu.
