Turkish citizen Mehmet Ismet, prays in front the rubble of the historic Habib Najjar mosque which destroyed during the devastated earthquake, in the old city of Antakya, Turkey, Saturday, Feb. 11, 2023. A story in the Quran relates how three messengers from God came to an unnamed town, urging its sinful people to follow His word. They refused, and God destroyed the city with a mighty blast. Many traditions say the town was the ancient city of Antioch – the modern Turkish city of Antakya. (AP Photo/Hussein Malla)
