 The death toll from the earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria climbed to 33,000 on Sunday, with the United Nations warning that the final number may double. Officials and medics said 29,605 people had died in Turkey and 3,574 in Syria bringing the confirmed total to 33,179, Agence France-Presse reports.

Here is a video showing rescuers pulling a 10-year-old girl from a collapsed building in the south-eastern Turkish province of Hatay, six days after an earthquake devastated the region.

Video released by the Istanbul municipality showed rescuers pulling the girl through a hole in a floor of a damaged building before carrying her out on a stretcher. She had been buried for 147 hours, according to rescuers.
