Lebanese man pulled from Hatay rubble amid efforts to rescue two more
Lebanese national Bassel Habkouk was pulled out Wednesday from the rubble of a destroyed hotel in the earthquake-hit Turkish city of Antakya amid ongoing efforts to rescue two more Lebanese citizens trapped under the debris.
Habkouk hails from the southern town of Maghdouche.
The Lebanese Embassy in Turkey meanwhile confirmed that efforts are still underway to rescue Elias Haddad and Mohammed al-Mohammed.
“Rescue crews have confirmed hearing voices coming from beneath the rubble at the site,” the Embassy added.
