President Erdogan vows to rebuild the country's southern region, saying that a total of 488,000 new homes will be built for disaster victims in the quake-hit areas within a year
Erdogan has repeatedly pledged to reconstruct the country's southern region in the wake of powerful earthquakes that struck earlier this month.
"Today, as we leave behind the fourth week since the earthquakes, we more clearly see the magnitude of the disaster we experienced and feel the pain of our losses more deeply," Recep Tayyip Erdogan said after a Cabinet meeting in the capital Ankara. More than 13.5 million people in Türkiye have been affected by the devastating quakes, as well as many others in northwestern Syria.
A total of 488,000 new homes will be built for disaster victims in the quake-hit areas within a year, he said.
