2023Türkiye-Syria earthquake: where your money is going
At 4.17am on February 6, a magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck Türkiye (Turkey) and Syria. Tens of thousands of people lost their lives and more than 50,000 buildings were reduced to rubble. As a member of the Disasters Emergency Committee (DEC), we launched a joint appeal, raising over £100 million. This is where that money has gone.
