This unexpected disaster has had an impact on the entire world, but digital businesses are showing their humanity by offering assistance in whatever way they can in the hope that things will improve.
More than 9,600 people have died as a result of the earthquake that occurred on Monday in Turkey and Syria. In Turkey, at least 7,108 individuals have perished, compared to at least 2,530 in Syria.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the president of Turkey, will visit the worst-affected regions after declaring a three-month state of emergency in ten provinces, as humanitarian organizations struggle with the challenging logistics of delivering urgent help to war-torn Syria.
