You’ll know that major earthquakes have devastated regions of northern Syria, southern Turkey and surrounding areas. Right now, Oxfam together with local partner organisations need your support to reach people affected by the disaster.
This is Bodrum. We’re living in hell, says the mayor: “It’s not possible to put down the fires from the ground, and it’s too late to use firefighter planes or helicopters. We’re trying to protect residential areas. But we can do nothing to save the trees
🚨I am calling all the countries who can help us. We are perished and devastated with the total 112 fires. The ones that we can’t stop are still going so strong. We dont have enough fire fighting planes to stop it. We lost 8 people, so many animals and our forests. #HelpTurkey

112 fires have broken out amongst my beautiful country…we do not have the necessary resources to stop the fires, they keep growing and spreading as we speak. Please globally spread the word…this is our planet, our home! We need help. #helpturkey
