Summary
On February 6th, a 7.8 earthquake struck southern Türkiye and northern Syria, killing tens of thousands and displacing millions of people. Adıyaman, Kahramanmaraş, and Antakya were the most affected regions - with half of Antakya destroyed and 80 percent of the building remaining left uninhabitable.

For Die Zeit, I photographed survivors in the immediate aftermath of the earthquake in Antakya.  Families living in their vehicles, displaced into tents, and dependent on burning scrap wood or gasoline to stay warm.  A link for the full story can be found here.
