Quake Devastates Turkish Coast Killing Fifteen
A sequence of earthquakes along Turkey s Aegean coast struck Fethiye and nearby villages, killing at least fifteen people and injuring dozens. Officials estimated around 400 homes and buildings collapsed or were severely damaged, with the worst-hit area the 4 000 strong town near the Rhodes area. Government aid arrived by air but uneven landings delayed distribution of tents and medical supplies. The epicenter was thought to be in the Aegean Sea off Fethiye or near Rhodes, as tremors extended to Rhodes and Deca nese Islands.
