JAKARTA - Yusuf Huseyin has made the hearts of the rescue teams who are trying to find victims of the catastrophic earthquake in Turkey rejoice. This 18-month-old baby was evacuated safely despite being hit by building debris for 105 hours.

Yusuf Huseyin is the antithesis of the 72-hour theory. That number is the limit to which earthquake victims can survive when found in cold weather conditions.

Friday, February 10, rescuers managed to pull Yusuf Huseyin alive from the rubble in the city of Kahramanmaras, Turkey. A city worst hit by Turkey's worst earthquake in nearly a century.

After 105 hours, Yusuf Huseyin was pulled from the rubble southeast of the city of Antakya. Twenty minutes later, the team managed to save seven-year-old Muhammed Huseyin again, the NTV news channel reported.

Three-year-old Zeynep Ela Parlak was also rescued in Antakya on the same day. Meanwhile, in Adiyaman province, rescue teams rescued 60-year-old Eyup Ak and in Gaziantep, two people were pulled out alive including a child whose age is unknown.

"Half an hour ago, we managed to save two people who were still alive from the rubble," the Czech fire service tweeted Friday from their team in Adiyaman southeast of Türkiye.

On Thursday, rescuers pulled a 10-day-old baby and its mother out alive after 90 hours trapped in the worst-hit province of Hatay, Turkish officials said. The baby boy named Yagiz Ulas was immediately wrapped in a thermal blanket.
