The latest toll of the devastating earthquake that struck northern Syria and southern Turkey last week reached 3749 killed and injured people in Syria alone, the Syrian Ministry of Health reported at the time of this report.
The casualties on the Syrian side include 1408 killed and 2341 injured, the search is still ongoing amid fears of discovering more dead as hope is fading away in finding survivors almost a week after the disaster and due to the extremely cold weather, not to mention the western sanctions impeding the ability of the rescue teams to receive the equipment they badly need.
Hundreds of buildings were destroyed, and thousands of others are endangered in the Syrian provinces of Aleppo, Latakia, and Hama in the double earthquakes that struck Syria and Turkey last Monday, tens of thousands are homeless and are taken to temporary shelters, they badly need medicine, food, and items used for hygiene and daily needs.
Some of the countries rushed from the early hours of the disaster to provide rescue teams and humanitarian aid breaking the US and European Union blockade, countries like Russia, Iran, Iraq, Algeria, Lebanon, and China, others were encouraged later on including countries that don't have enough for themselves like Bangladesh and Tunisia, while others who supported the terrorists in Syria for over 12 years with hundreds of billions of dollars worth weapons either gave microscopic aid or refrained completely from providing any aid like countries in the European Union and the mother of all evil in the world, the USA.
Beware of fraud, many sites, social media pages and accounts, and fake agencies are claiming they are providing support to Syria, please take extra caution if you are willing to help, you can help the official Syrian Arab Red Crescent which works on the ground inside Syria.
