The death toll from historic earthquakes that rocked Turkey and Syria a week ago rose further Monday even as miraculous rescues fueled the tiniest hope for those seeking to learn about their loved ones, and new paths to help victims in Syria seemed about to open up.

Rescue workers in Turkey saved a 10-year-girl from the rubble of an apartment block Monday in the southern Turkish province of Kahramanmaras, 183 hours after the first quake shook the region, state broadcaster TRT Haber reported.
