One Thai woman has died in the devastating earthquake in Turkey, the Thai Foreign Ministry announced Wednesday.

 

The ministry said it has received a report from its embassy in Turkey that the body of a Thai woman was found under collapsed buildings in the town of Iskenderun.

 

The ministry expressed condolences to family of the victim, as it said that the Thai Embassy is coordinating with Turkish officials over arrangements for the repatriation of the victim’s body.
