This may be the beginning of a series of updates. It may take years to recuperate.
The loss of life in recent hours is said to be over 7200.

Update February 8, 2023 5pm EST: Loss of life reported to be about 12,000. Estimated that thousands are missing, such as trapped underneath rubble. Expectancy for average person is about 3 days without food and drink to survive. The 6th was day one, it is the 8th EST, at, around or past day 3.

Often what happens in a major natural catastrophe, is there are injuries that continue to debilitate while some heal. Nevertheless numbers of losses is often cited before numbers that improve.

This may be an event where global support is the calling.

There may have been more than one earthquake in the same region that took place in the time window of reference, reportedly Monday February 6, 2023 local time, perhaps and attributed as comprising most of the cause of the catastrophic condition.

List of regions and place names affected subject to being added to and revisions:
Pazarcik district
Kahramanmaras
Gaziantep
Diyarbakir
Adana
Azaz
Afrin
Hatay Province

We, HCN, are actively looking for a new host for this website, due to suspect and unusual activity on the website by some other party outside the intended original author, such as changing the message through ditzy misspellings or grammatical alterations, while lives have been sacrificed for decades. We do not bow to racially based societal pressures and notions of constructs devised to facilitate self-degradation.
