The death toll in the Turkey-Syria earthquake rises to more than 5000. Over tens of thousands are injured after the 7.8 earthquake struck areas in both countries.

Thousands of buildings collapsed in both countries and aid agencies are particularly worried about northwestern Syria, where more than 4 million people were already relying on humanitarian assistance.

Freezing weather conditions are further endangering survivors and complicating rescue efforts, as more than 100 aftershocks have struck the region.
