A powerful earthquake has hit a wide area in south-eastern Turkey, near the Syrian border, killing more than 100 people and trapping many others, the BBC reports.
The US Geological Survey said the 7.8 magnitude tremor struck at a depth of 17.9km (11 miles) near the city of Gaziantep.
In Turkey, officials confirmed more than 76 deaths so far and 10 cities hit, including Diyarbakir.
In Syria, more than 50 people were killed, state media reported.
There are fears the death toll will rise sharply in the coming hours.
