More survivors found 3 days after Turkey`s quake

Rescue workers in southeastern Turkey have saved at least two more people and continue to search for survivors of Sunday's devastating earthquake that killed at least 461 people and injured more than 1,300, Voice of America reported.

On Wednesday, workers rescued a 27-year-old teacher and a university student from collapsed buildings.

However, authorities say hopes of finding more people alive is quickly fading, with hundreds, even thousands, still trapped under the debris.

Sunday's 7.2 magnitude quake near Turkey's border with Iran has left thousands of people homeless.
