Rescue Operations still underway in Turkey and Syria as Operation Blessing arrives for relief effort

Turkey Quake

Mathew 24:7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

Important Takeaways:

  • ‘Keep Praying’: Survivors Still Being Found in Quake Rubble, Operation Blessing Relief Effort Underway
  • Rescuers are still finding some survivors amid the rubble… in Turkey and Syria. It’s the worst natural disaster in Turkey’s history with at least 35,500 now known to be dead. Nearly 32,000 of those people died in Turkey with at least 3,500 more in Syria.
  • The destruction zone in Turkey after those two massive earthquakes and dozens of aftershocks is stunning in its magnitude. As a comparison, it is the same size as the area north of New York City all the way to the south of Washington D.C., including New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware and part of Pennsylvania.
  • Diego Traverso, Operation Blessing’s international director of disaster relief, says the ministry is rushing to meet needs as quickly as possible.
  • “We want to be in the center of the action where the people need it, where, not only the people that are suffering… Keep praying for us, keep praying for the victims, keep praying for our volunteers, for our teams we’re deploying right now. Our experts are gonna be arriving in the next couple hours, water engineer, doctor, health team… the health is so needed.”
