Turkey has been rocked by another earthquake of 5.6 magnitude, the European Mediterranean Seismological Centre (EMSC) said.

The earthquake hit central Turkey early on Tuesday morning and had a depth of 2kms (1.2 miles), the EMSC said. A number of aftershocks are expected to occur.

It comes as rescuers in Turkey and Syria dug with their bare hands through the freezing night on Tuesday, searching for survivors among the rubble of thousands of destroyed buildings.

By Tuesday morning, the confirmed death toll across the two countries had surpassed 4,300, following multiple strong tremors near the Turkey-Syria border - the largest of which measured at a massive 7.8-magnitude.
