We sincerely pray for the safe return of the missing.

We pray for all those who died in the magnitude 7.8 earthquake and the series of following earthquakes that occurred in southeastern Turkey on 6 February. In addition, we express our deep condolences to all those who lost their loved ones and their livelihoods due to this earthquake.

The number of deaths currently identified has already exceeded 10,000. The scale of damage is expected to increase even more if Northwestern Syria, which has been suffering from a long-lasting war, is included. Search and rescue operations are difficult due to aftershocks, and many people are still trapped in the rubble of buildings in the freezing cold. We sincerely pray for the safe return of the missing and a speedy recovery in the affected areas.
