By Gaurav C. Sawant: More than 5,000 earthquake victims are buried in mass graves in the Turkish city of Marash. Excavating more graves continues as bodies continue to arrive at the mass grave site on Monday.

A police official on the ground said the Turkish city of Marash, with a population of around 5,000, may need to bury 10,000 earthquake victims. Marash is officially known as Kahramanmaras.

With the cemetery space running out in the city of Marash, a new burial area was set aside. But as the designated site quickly fills up, the area of ​​the mass burial site is expanding.

There is an endless stream of vehicles transporting the bodies of earthquake victims, and there are piles of coffins waiting for the dead. After the ritual, the bodies are buried at the mass grave site.

The death toll from the earthquake that struck Turkey and Syria on February 6 has risen to more than 34,000. It seemed that everything was about to grow even more as the chances of finding survivors grew more and more.

Some graves only have numbers, others have names. Relatives of the deceased also struggled to find names and numbers in graves that had wooden overhangs, rather than headstones.

Work is underway to remove rubble from destroyed buildings. Search and rescue workers also stumble upon bodies as they work to clear the rubble.

There is anger among the locals in Marash. People feel that lives could have been saved had the authorities acted immediately. People also blame builders for constructing buildings that do not withstand an earthquake.
