Hotel collapses in another Turkish earthquake
A 5.6-magnitude earthquake has killed at least nine people in eastern Turkey, and trapped many more under collapsed buildings.
The BBC reports that about 20 buildings have collapsed, including a six-storey hotel in the city of Van, where dozens of aid workers and journalists were staying.
The region was struck last month by a 7.2-magnitude earthquake which killed more than 600 people.
The city of Van, the headquarters of the relief effort, was only lightly damaged in the latest quake north of the city, but some of the weakened buildings are now thought to have been brought down, the BBC correspondent reported.
Some of the journalists trapped in the collapsed Bayram Hotel had sent text messages to colleagues asking to be rescued, Associated Press quoted a Turkish cameraman as saying.
