Princess Kate and William Meet with Turkey-Syria Earthquake Relief Organizers in London
This morning, the Prince and Princess of Wales visited the Hayes Muslim Centre in London to thank those involved in the aid efforts following the natural disasters, per a Kensington Palace statement.
Last month, a 7.8 magnitude earthquake hit Turkey and northern Syria, killing tens of thousands of people. The quake concentrated on the town of Pazarcik, in Turkey's southeastern Kahramanmaras province, and was followed by a 7.5 quake and several powerful aftershocks. The United Kingdom announced soon after the tragedy that it was deploying emergency response teams to Turkey to assist in rescue efforts, with U.K. Foreign Secretary James Cleverly, "The UK is sending immediate support to Türkiye including a team of 76 search & rescue specialists, equipment and rescue dogs. In Syria, the UK-funded White Helmets have mobilised their resources to respond. We stand ready to provide further support as needed.
