Adiyaman, Turkey – After digging in rubble for 10 days, Ahmet Firat finally had no bodies left to recover – but he felt no peace.
“You see us, we look like we’re living but we’re dead. We lost 12 relatives; we also died with them,” the 39-year-old told Al Jazeera, outside his tent in a wind-blown expanse of open ground away from damaged buildings in Adiyaman, southeastern Turkey.
