SKAI’s correspondent in Turkey, Manolis Kostidis, managed to reach the epicenter of the devastating earthquake today, in the Kahraman Maras area. He spoke to survivors and recorded shocking testimonies.
Stories like that of a father who threw his two children out of the window and then jumped himself to escape the fury of the engelad.
The picture from the center of Turkoglu looks dramatic and there is no longer much hope for survivors under the ruins.
The scene suggests a mass bombing.
Manolis Kostidis with the camera of SKAI and Antonis Misirlis start the trek and arrive at the epicenter of the earthquake, in the city of Kahraman Maras, in the area where, together with Antioch, perhaps the greatest disasters are recorded with nothing left standing afterwards the devastating earthquake outbreak.
While the rescue crews have left and there are only excavators at the scene, suddenly 140 hours after the earthquake, the hope for a miracle appears.
The military is asking people to move away in an attempt to reach deeper into the wreckage and begin a rescue operation.
The world falls silent, the machines turn off and suddenly there is deathly silence.
The SKAI mission also went to the province of Kiomurler, at the epicenter of the earthquake, and recorded images of war, people in despair and mountains of ruins.
Citizens hope for a miracle and pray in the middle of the road.
The pain is unbearable.
The story of a survivor who was rescued from the rubble of the deadly earthquake but saw his family unravel.
Equally chilling is the story of a survivor who was freed after rescuers had to amputate his arm.
Stranded citizens set up tents in front of the wreckage and wait.
In the countryside, things are more difficult, in some areas the rescue crews never managed to arrive and the residents speak of the greatest disaster of the century.
