Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan says offers for help have been received from some 45 countries in the aftermath of today’s deadly earthquake and powerful, still ongoing aftershocks.

In a televised address, Erdogan announces that Turkey’s death toll has reached 912, adding that about 5,400 people were injured, while around 2,470 people have been rescued from collapsed structures.

Israel is one of the countries that has offered to send assistance to Turkey, and is readying teams and aid to ship out in the coming hours.
