At least 120 aftershocks hit southern Turkey after Monday's powerful earthquake, according to updated information from Turkey's Disaster and Emergency Management Agency (AFAD).

 Separately, the US Geological Survey (USGS), which only reports stronger aftershocks that are actually felt by those in the quake zone, reported at least 43 aftershocks of magnitude 4.3 or higher. According to the US Geological Survey, three aftershocks were magnitude 6.0 or greater, including a strong 7.5-magnitude quake that struck 95 kilometers north of the epicenter of the morning's main quake.

 Aftershocks extended more than 300 kilometers along a fault zone in southern Turkey, oriented southwest to northeast, stretching from the border with Syria up through the province of Malatya.

 Note that all aftershocks are separate earthquakes. But as long as they are not stronger than the initial main earthquake, they are considered aftershocks.

 The death toll in Turkey and Syria has risen to at least 2,318.

 According to AFAD, the total number of dead in Turkey is 1,498.

 The total number of dead in Syria is 820 people. SANA reported 430 dead in government-held areas, while the White Helmets group, officially known as the Syrian Civil Defense, reported 390 dead in opposition-held areas.
