Rescue teams continue to work in the affected areas in the hope of finding more survivors.

The emergency teams have rescued this Thursday alive a 12-year-old boy who remained trapped in the rubble of a building in the Turkish province of Hatay 260 hours after the earthquakes of February 6as reported by the Anatolia news agency.

This news occurs hours after a 17-year-old girl, identified as Aleyna Olmez, was found alive this Thursday among the remains of an apartment building in the Kabayasi district, in the province of kahramanmara.

Rescue teams continue to work in the area in the hope of finding more survivors, although the ten days that have passed since the earthquakes, which have left more than 36,200 dead in the country, mean that the chances of finding people alive are increasingly scarce.
