At least two powerful earthquakes struck in southern Turkey and northern Syria in the early hours of Feb. 6. At least 6,200 people have been killed with thousands more injured. The real death toll and impact of the disaster, however, remains to be seen as emergency services race to rescue families and children trapped beneath the rubble.
The ICNA stands in support of the children, their families, our colleagues and others who have been affected by this natural disaster. We will never forget the warm Turkish hospitality we experienced during our recent ICNA congress 2022 in Antalya from the members of the Turkish Child Neurology Association. In solidarity, we offer our support to our many friends and colleagues and their families as well as to the vulnerable children they care for at this very sad and critical time of suffering and hope for the minimum of loss.
