A joint rescue team of Bangladesh continues to play its part in the rescue effort in Turkey following last Monday's earthquake, one of the deadliest natural disasters ever to hit the region. The Bangladesh team has so far brought out a 17-year-old girl alive from the debris and recovered nine bodies, Shahjahan Sikder, deputy assistant director of the fire service headquarters media cell, said Sunday. The team consisting of 34 members from the army and 12 from the fire service left Dhaka Wednesday at 10pm and reached Turkey's Adana Military Air Base Thursday at 9:46pm. Later, they reached Adiyaman city in southeastern Turkey and started search and rescue operations, Shahjahan said.
