Don't know where else to place this. Moderators, please move as deemed appropriate. Thanks.
Earthquake in the Van province of Turkey. Emergency desk of the Turkish Foreign Ministry: +90 312 248 70 00 (10 lines) for aid.
http://t.co/FdNGBpJ0 for aid coordination.

Terrible news indeed.
I hope you don't have loved ones who were affected by this, Mouza.
EH is ok, I'll let it stay here.

Thanks for your sentiments. AFAIK, no personal connections of mine have been lost or injured, but the death toll is between 200-300 and increasing.
The government have barred international rescue efforts, but monetary aid (especially to the Red Crescent and AKUT) cannot or would not be prevented.
