5:07 pm
debris. this does no one alive to be found. but as you said, folly, they are still clinging onto hope because they're all still a number of people trapped under that building. and although it is the window is clothing, but there is hope that maybe some will be found alive in there. let me come to the drone now would be a good idea to try and give you an idea of just how wide the devastation is. this was the cluster of buildings that gone now. it's a pile of rubble. an entire family was living and one of those flaws they can count around here, the people that you may be able to see in the. busy don't standing around here, many of them, if not all of them, are family members from the extended family who've come in from all around turkey to try and find out what has happened to their relatives. i was chatting with some
5:08 pm
of them earlier and it was devastating because as we were talking i was talking to a cousin. suddenly the news was the body had been located. we may have pictures of that earlier incident. a body was located, they pulled the body out. the funeral call came in, loaded the body into the back of the car, drove off, and immediately signs of grief on the father who had to be whisked away had to be taken off the scene. i'm. it's a really distressing scene. we've seen play out here. i've seen it at least 2 or 3 times here today. and it gets how you shake you to the core and the so many people in this kind of situation here who are going through this terrible cycle of emotions, of hope, excitement, anticipation,
5:09 pm
and then sadly too many times, it culminates with terrible, terrible painful disappointment as a body is taken away, and another grieving mother or father has to be rushed off the scene almost collapsing being dragged off by relatives. millions of people have lost their homes, and god only knows how many people have lost relative. the still, we're told a lot of bodies under the rubble, how many is the question? i've been posing 2 officials and they say we simply about low, but we've rescued more than 100000. that's on the one hand. very good news. on the other hand, it's a worrying question of how many more were left behind when this, when this, those quite here, the 1st at the center struck a full 17 am in the morning when most people were sleeping. falling back to you in
