7.0 Powerful earthquake jolts Turkey and Greece, killing at least eight

At least eight people have been killed in Turkey and Greece after a powerful earthquake hit the Aegean Sea on Friday afternoon, sending buildings crashing down and triggering what authorities have called a "mini tsunami."

Officials said six people were killed in coastal areas in Turkey's west, while two teenagers died on the Greek island of Samos after a wall collapsed on them.

Turkish media showed wreckage of a multiple-story building in central Izmir, with people climbing it to start rescue efforts.

Turkish media showed at least one woman being helped from the rubble of a collapsed building. Smoke was filmed in several spots in central Izmir.

On the Greek island of Samos, damage was reported in buildings and the road network, while a tsunami warning was issued, with residents told to stay away from the coast.

Water rose above the dock in the main harbor of Samos and flooded the street.
