Turkey's Ongoing Struggle to Rebuild, Six Months After Devastating Earthquakes

Six months after a devastating earthquake struck southeastern Türkiye and neighboring Syria, the humanitarian needs in the affected areas remain enormous. Thousands of people have lost their lives, tens of thousands have been injured, and infrastructure has been severely damaged. Elcin, who was trapped in the rubble for 81 hours, shares her harrowing experience and the ongoing struggles she faces living in a container. The psychological impact of the earthquake continues to affect many, and the town she lives in remains destroyed, with people relying on support for their basic needs. CARE is providing assistance to those affected, including water, food, shelter, and protection services.
