Three survivors pulled from rubble in Turkey
Rescue teams pulled three people alive from under collapsed buildings in Turkey on Friday, 11 days after an earthquake that has killed more than 43,000, left millions homeless and sparked a huge relief effort.
While many international rescue teams have left the vast quake zone, survivors were still emerging from under a multitude of flattened homes, defying all the odds.
One man was rescued in the southern province of Hatay, 278 hours after the 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck in the dead of night on 6 February, Turkey's state-run Anadolu news agency reported.
Earlier, a 14-year-old boy and a 34-year-old man were saved in Turkey's historic city of Antakya, known in ancient times as Antioch. As the 34-year-old Mustafa Avci was carried away, he was put on a video call with his parents who showed him his newborn baby.
"I had completely lost all hope. This is a true miracle. They gave me my son back. I saw the wreckage and I thought nobody could be saved alive from there," Avci's father told Reuters.
