On the fifth day after the earthquake hit Adıyaman, aerial views revealed the ongoing efforts to clear the destruction. Over a thousand buildings were damaged, with debris scattered throughout the city, and the removal of balconies from some apartment buildings was a striking sight. Teams were working tirelessly to clear the rubble, looking for survivors or completing the process of retrieving any deceased. The focus remains on saving lives and finding those who may still be trapped, as well as restoring buildings where it is possible for people to return to their homes.
