Thousands of people gathered on Tuesday in Turkey's Hatay region, at 04:17 AM, the exact same hour a devastating earthquake hit the country a year ago, killing more than 53,500 people. Demonstrators chanted "we won't forgive, we won't forget", lit candles and scuffled with police when the latter tried to block a road. Hatay is the worst hit region from a total of 11 affected by last year's earthquake in Turkey. IMAGES
