Iran Press/ Asia: The death toll from the earthquake that hit Türkiye and Syria climbed to more than 38,000 on Tuesday, with the United Nations warning that the final number may double.
After the terrible earthquake in the south of Türkiye, Iran as a neighboring country is helping the Turkish earthquake victims.

According to Eskandari after the end of the search and rescue operation, the resettlement operation will begin in the earthquake-affected areas.
The 120-person rescue teams of Iran have been sent to the earthquake-affected areas of Türkiye with full equipment.
