Three days after the earthquake he documented in Syria and Turkey, the extent of the destruction continues to be revealed.
The rescue forces operating in Turkey, including the Israeli delegation, continued their search efforts today (Thursday), but as time passes, the chances of finding survivors are decreasing.
Along with the increasing difficulty, miracles also occur.
A two-month-old baby girl was rescued this morning from the waves of rubble in the Hatay province of Turkey - 68 hours after the earthquake.
The little survivor, named Helen, was rescued by a local rescue force who evacuated her for medical treatment after suffering mild hypothermia.
The organization said that her condition is good and she is under medical treatment.

However, the hopes to rescue those trapped in the ruins were not met in all cases.
After three days of searching and much effort invested in the search and rescue of the couple Shaul and Tona Janudi, the heads of the Jewish community in Antakya, Turkey, their bodies were found early in the morning.

In addition, the Israeli rescue teams encountered particularly difficult sights when helping a local resident locate his trapped family members.
Haim Balach, the ZAKA commander in the Israeli delegation, said: "On our way to another collapsed building, a local resident stopped us and asked for our help in locating his family in the area.
We immediately went into action and were able to locate the bodies of the five members of his family.
It was a difficult sight to see a person receiving his family members when they were lifeless."
