By Naomisophyblog
Three people dead, 213 injured after a 6.4-magnitude earthquake struck southern Turkey on Monday, weeks after a deadly quake devastated the region.
The disaster response agency, AFAD, says it’s the hardest hit by a 7.8 earthquake on February 6 that left more than 46,000 people dead in Turkey and Syria.
The quake hit the town of Defne at 8:04 pm (1704 GMT) and was strongly felt by
in Antakya and Adana, 200 kilometres (300 miles) to the north. The walls of badly damaged buildings crumbled while several people, apparently injured, called for help.
