On Friday afternoon, United Hatzalah rescue teams together with the IDF Home Front Command and Turkish Red Cross pulled a man in his late 50s from the rubble of a collapsed building in Kahramanmaras.
The man had been trapped for nearly 5 days and was still alive.
United Hatzalah doctors treated him by providing fluids and treating his crush injuries while still in the rubble in order that he would be stable enough to be extracted and transported to the hospital.
The gathered crowd cheered the rescue with chants of Allahu Akbar, in praise of the Israeli team's efforts to save the man.
