Rescue teams They saved 2 small girls in Izmir, the city of Turkey most affected by the earthquake on Monday on October 30, which has caused at least 83 deaths and more than 900 wounded in that province.
It’s about a teenager Idil Sirin, who was rescued, after midnight Sunday (local time), after being trapped for 58 hours under the remains of a collapsed building, and a 3-year-old girl, Elif Perinçek, who was taken out on Monday morning, after 65 hours of waiting.
Teams AFAD, the Turkish emergency service, had managed to save 104 people as of midnight on Saturday, but since then he had only been able to recover corpses from the 6 collapsed buildings in which the search for missing persons continues.
Little Elif had been trapped with her mother and 3 siblings in a building that collapsed entirely in the Bayrakli neighborhood, on the northern outskirts of Izmir, the only one seriously affected by the earthquake, 6.8 magnitude, which occurred on Friday at noon.
His mother, Seher Perinçek, and 2 twin sisters were saved on Saturday as the lifeless body of his brother was recovered, and since then the teams worked to reach the point where the girl was.
As explained to CNNTürk by a firefighter from the team, Ahmet Yavuz, the little girl was in a “life hole”, with her eyes open and conscious, when they found her.
In this same building there may be 6 more people and the teams will continue working, without losing hope, until they find everyone, added the firefighter.
