OSMANIYE, Türkiye (AA) - A chef in southern Türkiye’s Adana province is distributing kebabs to earthquake victims.

Yasar Aydin said he makes 6,000 sandwiches a day for earthquake victims and rescue teams working on the field.

Traveling from city to city every day, mostly to villages, he said he not only distributes kebabs but also dry legumes, food, clothes, stoves, heaters, and generators.

"I will go to all the districts and villages in every province affected by the earthquake. These are the things we can do, together we will heal these wounds," he said.

He also delivered food to the relatives of the earthquake victims who were brought to Adana for treatment, he said, adding that his son is also helping him.

More than 44,200 people have died in twin earthquakes that hit southern Türkiye on Feb. 6, according to officials.
