A magnitude 6.4 aftershock struck Turkey on Monday, two weeks after a massive earthquake killed tens of thousands of people in Turkey and Syria.
The quake hit Defne, in Turkey's southern Hatay province, near the Syrian border, Turkey's Disaster and Emergency Management Agency (AFAD) said Monday.
Syria's state news agency, SANA, is reporting six people have been injured in Aleppo from falling debris, while the mayor of Hatay says a number of buildings have collapsed, trapping people inside.
