Turkey Earthquake: Van Hotel Topples, ‘Killing Three’
I’ve heard nothing that seems to indicate that this was other than a natural occurrence.
Turkey earthquake: Van hotel topples, ‘killing three’

Alper Kucuk, Turkish Red Crescent: “Rescue efforts are concentrating on the hotel as the other buildings are thought to have been empty”
A 5.6-magnitude earthquake has killed at least three people in eastern Turkey, and trapped many more under collapsed buildings.
About 20 buildings have collapsed, including a six-storey hotel in the city of Van, where dozens of aid workers and journalists were staying.
The quake hit at 21:23 (19:23 GMT) and was centred 16km south of Van.
The same region was struck last month by a 7.2-magnitude earthquake which killed more than 600 people.
That earthquake struck a little north of Van but the city became the headquarters of the relief effort and has been flooded by aid workers and journalists, says the BBC’s Jonathan Head in Istanbul.
The city was only lightly damaged, but some of the weakened buildings are now thought to have been brought down.
Television pictures from Van showed residents and rescuers trying to lift debris to free people trapped under ruined buildings.
Rescue workers were using high-powered lights to work through the night.
Some of the journalists trapped in the collapsed hotel had sent text messages to colleagues asking to be rescued, Associated Press quoted a Turkish cameraman as saying.
Deputy Prime Minister Besir Atalay said the quake toppled a school and a number of mudbrick homes, as well as the hotel.
He said rescue teams were being sent to the region from the capital, Ankara, and other areas.
Alper Kucuk from the Turkish Red Crescent told the BBC that 11 people had been rescued from the rubble of the hotel.
He said most of the other buildings that had collapsed were empty after being damaged in last month’s earthquake.
Mr Kucuk said the Red Crescent was sending two more planeloads of relief supplies to the area, including tents and blankets, as well as rescue personnel.
He described it as the biggest aftershock to hit the area and said it had frightened a lot of people.
Thousands of people were made homeless by the 23 October earthquake, with many still living in tents in the cold weather.
