BBC World Service - Business Matters, Turkey and Syria devastated by earthquakes

Two massive earthquakes destroyed Turkey and Syria

The tragedy brings new crisis in Syria and Turkey. At least 3,800 people have died  and thousands buildings were destroyed.

It is still too early to gauge the full impact of the two massive earthquakes that shook Turkey in the early hours of Monday morning. What is known so far is that the damage stretched widely beyond the epicentre in the city of Gaziantep - with buildings collapsing and mass casualties across the border in northern Syria. At least 3,800 people are confirmed to have died.
