President of Turkey Erdoğan has called this earthquake "the biggest disaster the country has faced since 1939."

Just hours ago, Turkey has been struck with one of the deathliest earthquake the country has ever faced-- and it happened twice in the span of mere hours. The 7.8-magnitude tremor has so far claimed more than 2000 lives, leaving thousands more injured. Videos from social media show high-rise building collapsing in a matter of seconds and hundreds are feared still trapped under the rubble.

The fatal earthquake has also roared its destruction in Syria, a country that has already been infested with obliteration.

Meanwhile on Twitter, a Dutch expert Frank Hoogerbeets had accurately predicted the disaster three days prior, stunning netizens around the world.

As this news is written, The Special Malaysia Disaster Assistance and Rescue Team (SMART) is sending a team to Turkiye tonight to help the local authorities with their search and rescue efforts around the nation.

#PrayForTurkey.
