Satellite data aiding relief efforts after Türkiye–Syria earthquakes
Türkiye and Syria are reeling from one of the worst earthquakes to strike the region in almost a century. Tens of thousands of people have been killed with many more injured in this tragedy. Turkish authorities, along with the United Nations and the International Federation Red Cross & Red Crescent Societies, activated the International Charter ‘Space and Major Disasters’. The Charter provides satellite images of the affected areas to support local teams with their rescue efforts. Philippe Bally, ESA Charter Representative, explains.

Im sad for syria… I remember during the pandemic on 2020, government of Turkey thieves breathers from airplane coming to Spain, and now rescuers from spain are in Turkey, saving lives…
great work!
As imagens impressionantes do satélite …tão reveladoras da destadora catástrofe!! Sei que os cientistas no terreno continuam a estudar e a fazer investigação ..quando acontecem …no sentido de chegar a uma forma de prever os sismos!! Por isso …Os cientistas estão numa corrida contra o tempo?! Uma vez que estes fenómenos estão mais frequentes?! A tecnologia é muito …e a cooperacao, mesmo muito importante!!
