Three British Nationals have been confirmed missing following the catastrophic earthquake which struck south-eastern Turkey and northern Syria yesterday morning.
Foreign Secretary James Cleverly made a statement in the Commons confirming the trio are missing and a further 35 are affected. He did not specify whether or not they were in Turkey or Syria, the Mirror reports.
He stated: "We know that three British nationals are missing and the Foreign Office's Crisis Response Hub is working to support the at least 35 British nationals who have been directly affected by these earthquakes. We assess that the likelihood of large-scale British casualties remains low."
