All the Italians currently in Turkey
have been contacted and they are all OK after the huge
earthquake that killed hundreds in the country, Foreign Minister
Antonio Tajani said Monday.
"In the area where there was the strongest quake there are 21
Italians: we reached them and we believe they are all okay,"
said the foreign minister and deputy premier.
"In the broader zone there are 168 Italians: from the
cross-checks we have done, we believe they are all safe".
Over 1,400 people have died in the 7.8 magnitude quake that hit
Turkey and Syria Sunday.
