ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — A new, 6.4 magnitude earthquake has jolted Turkey’s Hatay province which was devastated by a massive tremor two weeks ago.
Syria’s state news agency, SANA, is reporting six people have been injured in Aleppo from falling debris, while the mayor of Hatay says a number of buildings have collapsed, trapping people inside.
The new quake comes as the Turkish disaster management agency, AFAD, has raised the number of confirmed fatalities from the earthquake in Turkey to 41,156.
That increases the overall death toll in both Turkey and Syria to 44,844.
