Ghanaian footballer Christian Atsu has been found dead under the building where he lived in southern Turkey after last week’s earthquake, his agents have confirmed.
Millions of people in Turkey and Syria have been displaced, many are still struggling to fulfil their basic needs and some are living in tents, factories, train carriages and greenhouses.
Buyuknacar, a village just a few miles from the epicentre of the 7.8 magnitude quake, was severely damaged and 158 were killed. The transport ministry said the government had helped more than 272,000 to evacuate by air, sea and rail. However, many people prefer to remain close to their homes, either to protect their possessions, wait for relatives’ bodies to be recovered or, in rural areas, care for their livestock.
“There’s no safe place apart from the greenhouses, because the houses collapsed due to the earthquake,” said Ozkan Sagaltici, in his 50s. Other displaced people have found relatively stable shelter. Elsewhere in Hatay, the Yuksel family found refuge in a metal factory, where they have been provided with necessities including clothing and household items.
The displaced residents can use a shared bathroom with hot water, a laundry and a small kitchen. They sleep in offices, shipping containers or lorries.
