Emirati search and rescue teams have pulled alive two men from under the rubble of collapsed buildings in Turkey, nine days after a deadly quake struck the country.
The rescue mission, which is part of the 'Gallant Knight/2' operation, was carried out in Kahramanmaraş along with teams from France.
Colonel Khaled Al Hammadi, Commander of the Emirati Search and Rescue in Turkey, indicated there's still hope of finding survivors.
He added that the area is being surveyed first by K9 units from Belarus, and then from Dubai, to ensure there are no other still alive.
Col. Al Hammadi added that the rescue teams have saved many lives over the past few days.
The men, aged 19 and 21, have been moved to a nearby hospital for treatment.
