The balance of the earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria 17,513 people died Thursday as weather and cold dampen hopes of finding survivors amid the wreckage.
He Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said from one of the hardest-hit cities, Gaziantep, that 14,351 people had died and more than 60,000 were injured on the balance sheet in his country. IN Syria the preliminary balance reaches 3162 deaths.
“Unfortunately, markets are being looted in some places. The state will respond to this by imposing a state of emergency,” the Turkish president said in a public statement in Gaziantep, a major city east of the earthquake’s epicenter.
Erdogan called the number of injured at 63,794, while the number of collapsed buildings remained stable compared to yesterday at 6,444.
The president said the three-month state of emergency will take effect this Thursday after receiving approval from parliament, where his party, the AKP, has a majority.
“We are going to intervene against the looting with these forces,” said Erdogan, who also attacked the opposition and the media criticizing his management of the disaster.
“The state of emergency will give the state the opportunity to fight those who abuse the (rescue and recovery) process,” Erdogan warned.
The opposition, led by the Social Democratic Party CHP, as well as numerous social media users, have criticized the government’s emergency leadership since earthquakes.
Turkey Presidential elections will take place on May 14, in which Erdogan, whose party has been in power since 2002, seeks a new re-election as head of state and government. (EFE)
