An official update has been issued for travel to Turkey. It comes as many people in Nottinghamshire wait to see whether planned trips to Turkey will go ahead this half term.
Tragically, nearly 16,000 people are now known to have been killed and thousands injured by a huge earthquake which struck south-eastern Turkey, near the Syrian border, in the early hours of Monday morning. It is feared the number of people killed will carry on rising.
Travel in the quake zone is almost impossible, hampering rescue efforts. In addition to the natural disaster, the area has seen affected by war over the past decade.
