In Gaziantep, Turkey, a 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck early Monday morning. On the day after the disaster, communities are trying to dig out and recover. Government officials have already declared it to be the deadliest earthquake to hit the country in two decades, with a tremor as strong as the 1939 earthquake, which killed an estimated 30,000 people.
