Syrian journalist Zaina Erhaim describes the arduous journey her mother - a Syrian refugee living in Turkey - had to make across the country to safety following the devastating earthquakes.

Her mum travelled first to Mersin, then to Ankara, before finding safety in Istanbul. As a refugee her mum is afraid she is not allowed to move around the country and that she will be deported - as Syrian refugees are restricted from moving around the country without the correct paperwork.
