Two new border crossings have been opened between Turkey and Syria to allow for the delivery of humanitarian aid

Syrian President Bashar Al Assad has agreed to allow U.N. deliveries to opposition-held northwest Syria through the crossings for three months.

The earthquake has left a trail of destruction and at least 37,000 people dead.

Turkey’s worst earthquake in almost a century has left a trail of destruction and at least 37,000 people dead in the the south-east and in neighbouring Syria.

More than 158,000 people have left the quake zone in southern Turkey.

But among the survivors, shock is also turning to anger.

Across the border in the Syrian city of Harem, north of rebel-held Idlib, a makeshift camp has been set up among the ruins.

In Turkey alone, the cost of the earthquake could cost Ankara up to $84.1 billion, according to one business group.

According to official government figures, some 42,000 buildings have either collapsed, were in urgent need of demolition, or severely damaged across 10 cities.

While President Erdogan has said the state will rebuild the quake hit areas within a year.
