02:35Dozens of earthquake survivors remained stuck in Iskenderun trains a month after a devastating earthquake hit the region, as footage filmed on Wednesday shows.
Footage shows train carriages have been turned into temporary shelters. Some earthquake victims talked about the problems they were facing.
"We haven’t showered for 28-29 days. We and our clothes are dirty," one homeless man explained.
"At the moment we are three people, but there are about eight to ten families in the wagon where we are staying, only in our wagon. From time to time this number changes, and some go back and forth. When space is opened, other earthquake victims will come. We are all trying to survive here," another survior stated.
Following the earthquakes on February 6, more than 50,000 people died in Turkey and Syria, while more than one and a half million people were left homeless.
Over a month later, many are still waiting to be relocated after their houses were either damaged or destroyed in the earthquake.
