Czech rescue workers in Turkey retrieved 50 bodies so far

Czech rescue workers searching for people buried in the rubble in the Turkish city of Adiyaman have so far retrieved 50 bodies, the spokesperson for the Czech fire service has said.

The Czech urban search and rescue team, which includes doctors, construction engineers, dog handlers and fire officers, has been helping in the quake-hit areas since last Tuesday.

The Czech experts, who also helped to locate and extract three survivors, are likely to stay in the country for several more days.
