Sky's YousraElbagir explains the aid response after an earthquake hit Turkey and Syria, killing more than 20,500 people. Latest:

2:40More than 20,500 people are now confirmed to have died in a devastating earthquake that hit Turkey and Syria on Monday.

The crucial 72-hour window - in which people are most likely to be found alive - has now passed, but one rescuer said there is still some hope of finding further survivors."It is surprising, but it is encouraging," said Mr O'Neill. Despite families feeling frustrated by the slow rescue pace, there are cases where those trapped under the rubble are alive and being saved.Children rescued after nearly three daysRescuers hold Kerem Agirtas, a 20-day-old survivor, who was pulled from under the rubble in Hatay

Why does he always have a silly grin?. Wind perhaps

Pretty sure that not even ‘Boris’ would look so smug at this…

Mental he’s prime minster and he doesn’t even have separate Tragedy Mode and Christmas Mode.

Heartbreaking while having that smug grin..can’t afford any pay rises but we can throw endless cash at Ukraine and Turkey/ Syria ( I feel sorry for all 3 country’s situations )

Instead of matching “pound for pound why don’t you just give what can be afforded rather than guilt others into solving the problem for you

Well thats nice of him, will it come out of his own pocket or ours?

Can we have money for this country to get more social housing please & to help the homeless

Lie

Why’s he smiling the whole way through this?

Sky is so negative. They have been saying this since day one counting the minutes. Have Hope. Never never ever give up. They will find more survivors as the determination to survive is greater than SKY predictions Never give in

Why can't he say anything without smirking? It's weird and makes him look like an android.

they should empty some of the charity buckets from the Curry Mile (Manchester). jingle all the way.

And nothing said about Assad still dropping his bombs… He’s as vile as Putin

I know whats happened in Turkey and Syria is terrible, I've donated what I can, but how can the government say there is no money to give pay rises to those in the NHS etc then say it will match the countries donation to Turkey and Syria? Where has that money come from?

He’s trying to work out how he and his pals can exploit this . Horrible humans they tories

Magic money tree

You’re worth 3 quarters of a billion, I’m sure you can afford a few quid to give them

Yes it’s sad but our NHS service is falling apart. Where’s the money for that 😡

YousraElbagir Guess the 1000’s of Turkish barbers popping up all over the uk will have aid boxes in their gaffs? Walked past 7 today on one street.. nah… still texting and charging £29 for a beard trim 🤦🏼‍♂️
