In a remarkable episode on Tuesday that raised hopes that more survivors could yet be found, a two-week-old baby was pulled alive from the rubble, almost two days after being buried in a collapsed apartment building.
Wow. That is scary. The earthquake that hit Turkey has taken away more than four hundred people and injured more than a thousand. That is so scary. One hit Japan not long ago and another attacks. Well a two week old baby surviving for two days under rubble, that is a miracle. The rescuers also found the baby's mother and grandmother. The only reason they survived was because of a sofa bed that prevented the rubble from crashing down on them. That is amazing. When rescued, they all seem to be in good shape. Even the baby! They were rushed to the hospital anyways for checkup probably.
The rescuers are hard at work trying to save many more people. More than forty thousand people have been saved but the Red Crescent (the rescuers) are running out of places to put them. They have passed out more than thirteen thousand tents but are still running short. About twenty four hundred search teams from forty five cities have been sent out to look for more missing people. They have more than two hundred ambulances running around in case of an emergency. Many people are hoping and waiting for the discovery of a loved one. Hopefully the rescuers find more missing people and hopefully they are still alive.
