In the depths of her grief, Sumbultepe feels compelled to share her story to draw aid and attention to the hardest-hit regions she says will continue to need for years to come.
“There are lots of bodies under the rubble. And their loved ones won’t rest until their bodies are found and buried. And after that, there’s much more work to do,” Sumbultepe said.“It’s too late for my family, that’s for sure. But I want to do something for the region,” she said.
