After last week's severe flooding in an area in southeastern Turkey already hit by the earthquakes, two more bodies have been found. It was a woman and her one-year-old daughter, tweeted Health Minister Fahrettin Koca late Monday.

They were discovered in the province of Adiyaman. The flood had washed away a container house where the woman and her family lived.

The death toll rose to 20, as the private news agency Demirören reported. The search for the missing is now completed, wrote the state news Agency TRT.

Only five weeks after the devastating earthquake of 6 February and many aftershocks, the floods last week flooded an already disaster-stricken region, where thousands of people live in makeshift shelters such as tents.

Several tents with survivors of the quakes were flooded in Adiyaman and the provinces of Şanlıurfa and Hatay near the border with Syria.

The earthquakes, which also affected parts of neighbouring Syria, killed more than 50,000 people in Turkey alone. Around two million people had to be accommodated in emergency shelters such as tents and containers. According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, around 6800 people lost their lives in the quakes throughout Syria.
