An 82-member team dispatched by the Chinese government arrived at Türkiye's Adana Airport on Wednesday to assist the quake-hit country in search and rescue operations.
The team comprises personnel from the Beijing Fire and Rescue Corps, the National Earthquake Response Support Service and the Emergency General Hospital in Beijing. It has also brought rescue equipment and supplies.
The rescue team will immediately start supplies unloading and transfer work, coordinate with the local government, the Chinese embassy in Türkiye and the relevant UN agencies, undertake the search and rescue mission based on the current situation, and set up camp at a safe and suitable location, said the team's head Zhao Ming.
The Chinese rescue team can conduct search and rescue operations in two different work sites at the same time, according to Wang Mo, the deputy captain of the team.
"Upon arrival, the team will head to the disaster area and start the search and rescue work with life detectors, medical equipment and rescue dogs," Wang added.
