Third quake hits Turkey and death toll crosses 4,800

The Independent's Morning Headlines email [View online]( February 07, 2023 [Morning Headlines]( 1 / [Rescuers work through the night after third quake hits Turkey and death toll crosses 4,800]( A third earthquake struck [Turkey]( early this morning after two massive [earthquakes]( are reported to have killed more than 4,800 people and wounded many thousands more in Turkey and [Syria](. The 5.8 magnitude earthquake was recorded at a depth of 2km, the European Mediterranean Seismological Centre ([EMSC]() said. Meanwhile, rescuers continued to work overnight in cold and dark to look for survivors as experts warn the death toll is likely to rise further as snowy, freezing conditions hamper rescue efforts. The Monday morning’s magnitude 7.8 tremor struck near the city of [Gaziantep](, and was felt nearly 1,000km away in [Cairo](, leaving a huge trail of destruction in Turkey and Syria, where many remained trapped below rubble as a second 7.5 magnitude earthquake then hit just hours later.   2 / [Rishi Sunak ‘plotting mini cabinet reshuffle’ as he looks to replace Zahawi as Tory party chair]( PM also claimed to be considering major overhaul of Whitehall departments 3 /[‘Gunshots heard’ at school where headteacher and family found dead]( Emma Pattison was found dead alongside her daughter Lettie and husband, George, at their home on the grounds of Epsom College 4 / [Salman Rushdie shares first selfie since being partially blinded in 2022 stabbing]( Novelist was stabbed around 12 times in New York last year 5 / [BP profits double to record £23bn after spike in oil and gas prices]( Oil and gas giant says profits were aided by ‘lowest production costs in 16 years’     The Big Question Was Massive Attack’s 100th Window a misunderstood masterpiece? Twenty years ago, [Massive Attack](’s golden streak went up in smoke. Up to that point, the Bristol trip-hop innovators had surfed a never-ending tide of acclaim. With their first three albums, they were heralded as mould-breakers and miracle workers. Then, on 10 February 2003, came their fourth. 100th Window was feverish and uneasy, a sealed puzzle box that made few concessions to casual listeners. Critics balked, fans scratched their heads. In a finger-snap, Massive Attack had surrendered their status as the most bullet-proof band in Britain, writes Ed Power. But as the LP’s 20th anniversary approaches, there is surely a case to be made for 100th Window as a misunderstood masterpiece. True, it’s harder work than any of the Nineties trilogy of Blue Lines (1991), Protection (1994) and Mezzanine (1998). Choruses are at a premium; the smooth grooves that were once a Massive Attack signature are replaced by barb-wire guitars and beats that rumble like depth charges (a gear-shift foreshadowed by Mezzanine’s starker moments). And of course, it is an anomaly in that it is the work of just one member, Robert “3D” Del Naja – though he has always rejected the idea of it as a “solo record”.
