Rescue workers in the Turkish port city of Izmir are continuing to search for the survivors of Friday's deadly earthquake, as officials said the death toll has increased to at least 64.
The powerful 6.6-magnitude earthquake has claimed at least 62 lives in Turkey and two teenagers died on the Greek island of Samos.
Nearly 900 people were injured, two-thirds of them have now been discharged from the hospital.
The quake triggered tidal waves that hit the Turkish and Greek islands.
Over a dozen buildings in Izmir were severely damaged or destroyed by the initial quakes and the hundreds of aftershocks that ensued. Parts of the city were also flooded by seawater.
'Never lose hope'
Rescue teams are scouring through the rubble of collapsed buildings for a third day looking for survivors.
Shortly after midnight, Ahmet Citim, 70, was pulled from the rubble of a building in Izmir. Health Minister Fahrettin Koca said in a Tweet: \"I never lost my hope.\"
It is unclear how many people remain trapped under the rubble. Turkish media reported three more people were pulled out Sunday from one collapsed apartment building but their conditions were not known.
Turkey is prone to earthquakes. In 1999, two powerful quakes killed some 18,000 people in northwestern Turkey. Earthquakes are frequent in Greece as well.
In a rare show of unity amid months of tense bilateral relations, Greek and Turkish government officials issued mutual messages of solidarity over the quake toll.
The quake occurred as Turkey was already struggling with an economic downturn and the coronavirus pandemic.
More than 10,000 people in Turkey have died from COVID-19.

by KEVIN MAPASURE ZIMBABWE national cricket team captain Chamu Chibhabha is confident of upsetting Pakistan in their limited overs series this month. Chibhabha and his team departed Harare yesterday ahead of the tour that features three T-20 Internationals and as many One Day Internationals (ODI). The last time Zimbabwe toured Pakistan they were whitewashed in both versions of limited overs, but they did manage to put up some competition. Chibhabha is one of the six players that made the historic 2015 tour and are in the squad that left for Pakistan yesterday. The ODI series is particularly important as it carries points in the Super League where top seven teams will get automatic qualification to the 2023 World |Cup. Zimbabwe failed to make it to the 2015 edition. Chibhabha acknowledged Pakistan’s favourites tag but said that he was confident of leading the team to victories. “We have played Pakistan before and we have beaten them before. We believe we can play well and compete and considering that the matches are part of the Super League, every match that we play is going to be very important,” Chibhabha said. “The more matches we win, the better our chances of qualifying for the World Cup, so it’s very important for us that we do well.” He said the players were excited to finally get back to international cricket following a lengthy COVID-19-induced lay off. Several home and away tours were cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic. “The guys are really excited to go to Pakistan. The wait is over. In a couple of days’ time we will hit the ground running. We have had a couple of weeks of training, we have played a couple of games, you know. The Premier League is on, so guys played some matches and they are good and ready.” Pakistan have been active following their tour of England and will be better prepared for the Zimbabwe visit, but their guests are happy with the practice they have had over the last few weeks. “They (Pakistan) have managed to play some matches while we have just been sitting at home, but I feel we are well-prepared. We have had a good chance to prepare, we have had some good match practice, the Premier League has helped a lot.” The Chevrons are happy with the return of Blessing Muzarabani following a stint in England. “Muzarabani is a quality bowler and having him in the team is a blessing, for it's always tough facing somebody that tall. I hope he is going to be leading the bowling attack.” Chibhabha suffered the heartbreak of falling on 99 in one of the ODIs in 2015 and he hopes this time around he can find that sort of form again. “I can only hope that I can find some form like I did in 2015. I hope that when I get to Pakistan', I can pick up from where I left. I was dismissed on 99 the last time we were in Pakistan. I have to prepare myself well and try and get that form.” Former skipper Elton Chigumbura is one of the players that toured Pakistan the last time and is in the squad for this one. He too enjoyed some fine form with the bat scoring a half tone in the first T-20 before hitting a c
