So far, India has sent medical supplies, medics and search-and-rescue teams to dig through the rubble and find survivors. The toll has crossed over 17,100 in both Turkey and Syria and is expected to rise further. Look at images of how the Indian Army's Operation Dost is saving thousands of lives in quake-hit Turkey and Syria.

Visuals of the Indian army's relief operations have been widely shared.

The death toll has crossed the 20,000 mark, with many still feared to be trapped under rubble.??

The Indian Army shared the image of the two women with the caption, "We Care", perfectly encapsulating how quickly India acted to support its 'Dost' Turkey.
