Major earthquakes in Turkey and Syria
Two earthquakes within hours of each other have caused devastation in Turkey and Syria.
More than 2,000 people are known to have died but the number keeps rising as rescuers search the rubble of destroyed buildings in southern Turkey and northern Syria.
We hear accounts by people in the affected area who witnessed the quake and speak to people taking part in the rescue operation.
We also speak to our teams on the ground and in the 蜜芽传媒 headquarters about how they cover the story as they verify various reports, images and videos and explain what happened.
