Zukali said that as state institutions have announced, 1541 persons have remained dead, while another 9733 have been injured.
I've met with some Albanians, because Albanians from Kosovo, from Cammeria and Sandzak live in that area. I met with the chairman of the Association of Albanians in Adana.

More than 2,300 people have lost their lives in Turkey and Syria by the powerful 7.8-magnitude Richter earthquake, which hit both countries early Monday morning and after it.
