Hasan Koc, 58, brings tea for his son Mehmet, 13, and friend Ali Cinar, 63, at his apartment in London, Britain, October 9, 2023. When a devastating earthquake struck Turkey in the early hours of Feb. 6, 2023, the five-storey building in Hatay where Mehmet lived collapsed, burying him in rubble and killing his older brother Emre, 14, and his mother Didem. Almost a year on, Mehmet and his father Hasan together in Hasan's small flat in Hackney, east London, both grieving for their loved ones and gradually coming to terms with the tragedy. "We are trying to get used to life," said Hasan. "Mehmet started school and is getting better. He is supporting me now, he tells me 'dad, we cannot bring them back or change what happened. Let's forget about it all and move on'."
