A magnitude 5.6 earthquake shook southern Turkiye on Monday — three weeks after a catastrophic temblor devastated the region — causing some already damaged buildings to collapse, an official said. A father and daughter were reported trapped beneath the rubble of one building. Monday's earthquake was centred in the town of Yesilyurt in Malatya province, the country's disaster management agency said.
