Some sources are saying up to 5000 confirmed dead now.

Some sources are confusingly combining both Turkey's and Syria's death numbers.

But after reading a bit more info this afternoon, it's sad to say that it's possible the 5000 confirmed dead number could easily be a single country's confirmation soon. It's so jarringly shocking before the sad can even begin to sink in.

I think some of the information said there were about 6500+ buildings in the different regions of Turkey alone that have collapsed? To have around 1 person per building would be nothing short of a miracle.
