Turkey-Syria earthquake kills about 11,000

(CNN) ⸻ The death toll from the devastating earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria has reached at least 11,376, according to authorities. In Turkey, the death toll has risen to 8,574, with nearly 50,000 others reported injured. In Syria, the total number of deaths now stands at 2,802, including 1,540 in rebel-held areas in the northwest and 1,262 deaths in government-controlled parts of Syria. The total number of injured people in Syria across all affected territories rose to 5,008. Aid agencies and emergency workers say the death toll is likely to increase further due to many people still trapped under the rubble and freezing weather conditions hampering rescue efforts.
