He said that reports from the Earthquake Committee, established under the Prime Ministry, show that 26 schools are partially or fully out of use. So far, 218 container classrooms have been set up at a cost of 48.75 million Turkish Lira, Yeniduzen reported.

Çavuşoğlu added that out of 127 schools, 77 have been assessed. Strengthening work has started in 28 schools, and contracts are being finalised for 3 more. Of the 28 schools where work has begun, 22 will be ready by the start of the school year on Monday. For the remaining 6 schools, necessary precautions will be taken while work continues.
